SHCBP1 is required for midbody organization and cytokinesis completion.

Cell Cycle 13(17) , 2744-51, (2014)

The centralspindlin complex, which is composed of MKLP1 and MgcRacGAP, is one of the crucial factors involved in cytokinesis initiation. Centralspindlin is localized at the middle of the central spindle during anaphase and then concentrates at the midbody to ...

MeCP2 deficiency is associated with reduced levels of tubulin acetylation and can be restored using HDAC6 inhibitors.

J. Mol. Med. 93(1) , 63-72, (2015)

Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder, predominantly caused by loss of function mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene. Despite the genetic cause being known in the majority of cases, the pathophysiology of t...

EphA receptors regulate prostate cancer cell dissemination through Vav2-RhoA mediated cell-cell repulsion.

Biol. Open 3(6) , 453-62, (2014)

Metastatic prostate cancer cells display EphB receptor-mediated attraction when they contact stromal fibroblasts but EphA-driven repulsion when they contact one another. The impact of these 'social' interactions between cells during cancer cell invasion and t...

Multiple assembly mechanisms anchor the KMN spindle checkpoint platform at human mitotic kinetochores.

J. Cell Biol. 208(2) , 181-96, (2015)

During mitosis, the spindle checkpoint senses kinetochores not properly attached to spindle microtubules and prevents precocious sister-chromatid separation and aneuploidy. The constitutive centromere-associated network (CCAN) at inner kinetochores anchors th...

LATS1 and LATS2 phosphorylate CDC26 to modulate assembly of the tetratricopeptide repeat subcomplex of APC/C.

PLoS ONE 10(2) , e0118662, (2015)

In budding yeast, the Mitotic Exit Network (MEN) regulates anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) via the Dbf2-Cdc14 signaling cascade. Dbf2 kinase phosphorylates and activates Cdc14 phosphatase, which removes the inhibitory phosphorylation of the APC/C...

Direct cellular delivery of human proteasomes to delay tau aggregation.

Nat. Commun. 5 , 5633, (2014)

The 26S proteasome is the primary machinery that degrades ubiquitin (Ub)-conjugated proteins, including many proteotoxic proteins implicated in neurodegeneraton. It has been suggested that the elevation of proteasomal activity is tolerable to cells and may be...

Septins arrange F-actin-containing fibers on the Chlamydia trachomatis inclusion and are required for normal release of the inclusion by extrusion.

MBio 5(5) , e01802-14, (2014)

Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular human pathogen that grows inside a membranous, cytosolic vacuole termed an inclusion. Septins are a group of 13 GTP-binding proteins that assemble into oligomeric complexes and that can form higher-order fila...

The NOXA-MCL1-BIM axis defines lifespan on extended mitotic arrest.

Nat. Commun. 6 , 6891, (2015)

Cell death on extended mitotic arrest is considered arguably most critical for the efficacy of microtubule-targeting agents (MTAs) in anticancer therapy. While the molecular machinery controlling mitotic arrest on MTA treatment, the spindle assembly checkpoin...

Microtubule disruption synergizes with oncolytic virotherapy by inhibiting interferon translation and potentiating bystander killing.

Nat. Commun. 6 , 6410, (2015)

In this study, we show that several microtubule-destabilizing agents used for decades for treatment of cancer and other diseases also sensitize cancer cells to oncolytic rhabdoviruses and improve therapeutic outcomes in resistant murine cancer models. Drug-in...

A gemcitabine sensitivity screen identifies a role for NEK9 in the replication stress response.

Nucleic Acids Res. 42(18) , 11517-27, (2014)

The Replication Stress Response (RSR) is a signaling network that recognizes challenges to DNA replication and coordinates diverse DNA repair and cell-cycle checkpoint pathways. Gemcitabine is a nucleoside analogue that causes cytotoxicity by inducing DNA rep...
