E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Smurf1 Mediates Core-binding Factor α1/Runx2 Degradation and Plays A Specific Role in Osteoblast Differentiation

TL;DR: Smurf1 appears to be an important regulatory factor in osteoblast differentiation and a potential molecular target for identification of bone anabolic agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Site identification in high-throughput RNA–protein interaction data

TL;DR: This work introduces a method for site identification which can be applied on all variations of CLIP and RIP-seq technologies, and accurately models the underlying read-count distributions, and allows external covariates, such as transcript abundance, to inform the site identification process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Before It Gets Started: Regulating Translation at the 5' UTR.

TL;DR: Important aspects of 5′ UTR-mediated regulation are discussed by providing an overview of the characteristics and the function of the main elements present in this region, like uORF (upstream open reading frame), secondary structures, and RBPs binding motifs and different mechanisms of translation regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Smurf1 Inhibits Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation in Vitro and in Vivo

TL;DR: The results demonstrate for the first time that Smurf1 plays a specific role in osteoblast differentiation and bone formation in vivo.
