Abstract For many, “DNA mimic protein” (DMP) remains an unfamiliar term. The key feature of these proteins is their DNA‐like shape and charge distribution, they affect the activity DNA‐binding by occupying domains. Functionally, DMPs regulate mechanisms such as gene expression, restriction, DNA repair well nucleosome package. Although a few DMPs, phage uracil glycosylase inhibitor (UGI) overcome classical restriction (Ocr), were reported about 20 years ago, only small number have been studied to date. In 2014, we reviewed functional structural features 16 that known at time. Now, seven new namely anti‐CRISPR suppressors AcrF2, AcrF10 AcrIIA4, human immunodeficiency virus essential factor VPR, multi‐functional anti‐restriction nuclease (Arn), translational regulator AbbA, putative Z‐DNA MBD3, reported. addition, further study two previously DMP19 SAUGI, increased our knowledge importance function. Here, discuss updated results address how several characteristics structure/sequence (e.g. distribution D/E‐rich repeats) might someday be used identify using bioinformatic approach. © 2018 IUBMB Life, 71(5):539–548, 2019

Combination therapy is increasingly becoming the cornerstone of current day antitumor therapy. Glioblastoma multiforme an aggressive brain tumor with a dismal median survival post diagnosis and high rate disease recurrence. The poor prognosis can be attributed to unique treatment limitations, which include infiltrative nature cells, failure anti-glioma drugs cross blood-brain barrier, heterogeneity highly metastatic angiogenic making cells resistant chemotherapy. approach being developed against glioblastoma new innovative combination drug regimens tested in preclinical clinical trials. In this review, we discuss pathophysiology glioblastoma, diagnostic markers, therapeutic targeting strategies, novel therapies context options ongoing trials for

Complex rearrangement patterns and mitotic errors are hallmarks of most pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC), a disease with dismal prognosis despite some therapeutic advances in recent years. DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) bear the greatest risk provoking genomic instability, damage repair (DDR) pathways crucial preserving integrity following plethora types. Two major dominate DSB for safeguarding genome integrity: non-homologous end joining homologous recombination (HR). Defective HR, but also alterations other DDR pathways, such as BRCA1 , BRCA2 ATM PALB2, occur frequently both inherited sporadic PDAC. Personalised treatment cancer is still its infancy predictive biomarkers lacking. deficiency might render PDAC vulnerable to potential new intervention that increases load beyond tolerable threshold, example, induced by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors. The Pancreas Cancer Olaparib Ongoing (POLO) trial, which olaparib maintenance improved progression-free survival compared placebo after platinum-based induction chemotherapy patients germline BRCA1/2 mutations, raised great hopes substantially outcome this patient subgroup. This review summarises relationship between PDAC, prevalence characteristics mutations options clinical management deficiency.

Abstract Abnormal metabolism of tumour cells is closely related to the occurrence and development breast cancer, during which expression NF‐E2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) great significance. Metastatic cancer one most common causes death worldwide; however, molecular mechanism underlying metastasis remains unknown. In this study, we found that overexpression Nrf2 promoted proliferation migration cancers cells. Inhibition Kelch‐like ECH‐associated protein 1 (Keap1) reduced glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) transketolase pentose phosphate pathway, knockdown Keap1 had opposite effects. Our results further showed G6PD Hypoxia‐inducing 1α (HIF‐1α) in MCF‐7 MDA‐MB‐231 Overexpression up‐regulated Notch1 via G6PD/HIF‐1α pathway. Notch signalling pathway affected by affecting its downstream gene HES‐1, regulated EMT The suggest a potential target for treatment targeting may provide promising strategy Nrf2‐driven metastasis.

The accurate repair of DNA is critical for genome stability and cancer prevention. double-strand breaks are one the most toxic lesions; however, they can be repaired using homologous recombination. Homologous recombination a high-fidelity pathway that uses template repair. One central HR step RAD51 nucleoprotein filament formation on single-stranded ends, which required homology search strand invasion steps HR. tightly controlled by many positive negative regulators, collectively termed mediators. mediators function to nucleate, elongate, stabilize, disassemble during In model organisms, paralogs mediator proteins structurally resemble promote its activity. New functions replication in flexibility have recently been uncovered. Mutations human (RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, XRCC2, XRCC3, SWSAP1) found subset breast ovarian cancers. Despite their discovery three decades ago, few advances made understanding paralogs. Here, we discuss current perspective vivo vitro paralogs, relationship with vertebrate models.

Ubiquitination is a reversible post-translational modification based on the chemical addition of ubiquitin to proteins with regulatory effects various signaling pathways. can alter molecular functions tagged substrates respect protein turnover, biological activity, subcellular localization or protein–protein interaction. As result, wide variety cellular processes are under ubiquitination-mediated control, contributing maintenance homeostasis. It follows that dysregulation ubiquitination reactions plays relevant role in pathogenic states human diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases, immune-related pathologies and cancer. In recent decades, enzymes ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS), including E3 ligases deubiquitinases (DUBs), have attracted attention novel druggable targets for development new anticancer therapeutic approaches. This perspective article summarizes peculiarities shared by involved reaction which, when deregulated, lead tumorigenesis. Accordingly, an overview main pharmacological interventions targeting UPS clinical use still trials provided, also highlighting limitations efficacy these Therefore, attempts circumvent drug resistance side well UPS-related emerging technologies therapeutics discussed.
