Live-cell p53 single-molecule binding is modulated by C-terminal acetylation and correlates with transcriptional activity

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

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

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.
