Journal ArticleDOI
Fusion of CHOP to a novel RNA-binding protein in human myxoid liposarcoma.
TL;DR: The presence of an abnormal CHOP transcript and protein in these tumours is reported and Targeting of a conserved effector domain of RNA-binding proteins to DNA may play a role in tumour formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The immunoregulatory mediator macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) catalyzes a tautomerization reaction.
Evald Rosengren,Richard Bucala,Pierre Åman,Lars Jacobsson,Gerd Odh,Christine N. Metz,Hans Rorsman +6 more
TL;DR: Although the tested substrate, D-dopachrome, does not occur naturally, the observation that MIF has tautomerase activity suggests that Mif may mediate its biological effects by an enzymatic reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The multifunctional FUS, EWS and TAF15 proto-oncoproteins show cell type-specific expression patterns and involvement in cell spreading and stress response
Mattias K Andersson,Anders Ståhlberg,Anders Ståhlberg,Yvonne Arvidsson,Anita Olofsson,Henrik Semb,Göran Stenman,Ola Nilsson,Pierre Åman +8 more
TL;DR: The results point to cell-specific expression patterns and functions of the FET proteins rather than the housekeeping roles inferred from earlier studies, which suggests activities in translational regulation during stress conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rearrangement of the transcription factor gene CHOP in myxoid liposarcomas with t(12;16)(q13;p11).
Pierre Åman,David Ron,Nils Mandahl,Thoas Fioretos,Sverre Heim,Kristina Arheden,Helena Willén,Anders Rydholm,Felix Mitelman +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the 12q breakpoint of the t( 12;16) in MLS differs from those in the other tumors investigated, even in cases with no cytogenetically visible differences in breakpoint position, that CHOP rearrangement is specific for MLS, and that the breakpoints cluster to the 5′ region of the gene.
Journal Article
Fusion of the EWS and CHOP genes in myxoid liposarcoma.
Ioannis Panagopoulos,Mattias Höglund,Fredrik Mertens,Nils Mandahl,Felix Mitelman,Pierre Åman +5 more
TL;DR: The translocation t(12;16)(q13;p11) which cytogenetically characterizes myxoid liposarcomas (MLS) results in a fusion of the CHOP gene in 12q13 and the FUS gene in 16p11, creating a chimeric FUS/CHOP gene as discussed by the authors.
