Journal ArticleDOI
Live-cell p53 single-molecule binding is modulated by C-terminal acetylation and correlates with transcriptional activity
Alessia Loffreda,Emanuela Jacchetti,Emanuela Jacchetti,Sofia Antunes,Paolo Rainone,Tiziana Daniele,Tatsuya Morisaki,Marco Bianchi,Carlo Tacchetti,Davide Mazza +9 more
TL;DR: Single-molecule tracking is used to directly demonstrate that p53 acetylation modulates promoter residence time and transcriptional activity and proposes a model in which the modification state of the transcription factor determines the coupling between transcription factor abundance and transcriptionAL activity by tuning the transcription factors residence time on target sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA splicing: a new player in the DNA damage response.
TL;DR: This review illustrates several different mechanisms through which pre-mRNA splicing and genomic stability can influence each other and specifically focuses on the role of splicing factors in the DNA damage response and how activation of the DDR can influence the activity ofsplicing factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Praf2 Is a Novel Bcl-xL/Bcl-2 Interacting Protein with the Ability to Modulate Survival of Cancer Cells
Maria Teresa Vento,Valeria Zazzu,Alessia Loffreda,Justin R. Cross,Julian Downward,Maria Patrizia Stoppelli,Ingram Iaccarino +6 more
TL;DR: A screen for Bcl-xL-interacting membrane proteins let us identify a novel proapoptotic protein whose activity is strongly counteracted exclusively by membrane targeted Bcl -xL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning Transcription Factor Availability through Acetylation-Mediated Genomic Redistribution
Pakavarin Louphrasitthiphol,Pakavarin Louphrasitthiphol,Robert Siddaway,Alessia Loffreda,Vivian Pogenberg,Hans Friedrichsen,Alexander Schepsky,Alexander Schepsky,Zhiqiang Zeng,Min Lu,Thomas Strub,Rasmus Freter,Richard Lisle,Eda Suer,Benjamin Thomas,Benjamin Schuster-Böckler,Panagis Filippakopoulos,Mark R. Middleton,Xin Lu,E. Elizabeth Patton,Irwin Davidson,Jean-Philippe Lambert,Matthias Wilmanns,Eiríkur Steingrímsson,Davide Mazza,Colin R. Goding +25 more
TL;DR: It is shown that low-affinity binding sites act as a competitive reservoir in vivo from which transcription factors are released by mitogen-activated protein kinase-stimulated acetylation to promote increased occupancy of their regulatory elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA-Binding Proteins in the Regulation of miRNA Activity: A Focus on Neuronal Functions
TL;DR: This review will highlight recent advances in the understanding of the role of RBPs in the regulation of the maturation and the function of miRNAs in the context of neuronal development and function.
