Journal ArticleDOI
Naive pluripotency is associated with global DNA hypomethylation
Harry G. Leitch,Kirsten R. McEwen,Aleksandra Turp,Vesela Encheva,Thomas L. Carroll,Nils Grabole,Nils Grabole,William Mansfield,Buhe Nashun,Jaysen G Knezovich,Austin Smith,M. Azim Surani,M. Azim Surani,Petra Hajkova +13 more
TL;DR: It is established that culture in 2i instills a naive pluripotent state with a distinctive epigenetic configuration that parallels molecular features observed in both the preimplantation epiblast and nascent PGCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
De novo DNA methylation drives 5hmC accumulation in mouse zygotes
Rachel Amouroux,Buhe Nashun,Kenjiro Shirane,Shoma Nakagawa,Peter W. S. Hill,Zelpha D’Souza,Manabu Nakayama,Masashi Matsuda,Aleksandra Turp,Elodie Ndjetehe,Vesela Encheva,Nobuaki Kudo,Haruhiko Koseki,Hiroyuki Sasaki,Petra Hajkova +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated using detailed immunofluorescence analysis and ultrasensitive LC-MS-based quantitative measurements that the initial loss of paternal 5mC does not require 5hmC formation, and an intricate interplay between DNA demethylation, de novo methylation and Tet3-driven hydroxylation is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiomic Analysis of the UV-Induced DNA Damage Response.
Stefan Boeing,Laura Williamson,Vesela Encheva,Ilaria Gori,Rebecca E. Saunders,Rachael Instrell,Ozan Aygün,Marta Rodríguez-Martínez,Juston C. Weems,Gavin Kelly,Joan W. Conaway,Joan W. Conaway,Ronald C. Conaway,Ronald C. Conaway,Aengus Stewart,Michael Howell,Ambrosius P. Snijders,Jesper Q. Svejstrup +17 more
TL;DR: A role for the poorly studied, melanoma-associated serine/threonine kinase 19 (STK19) is uncovered, which provides a systems-wide overview of the diverse cellular processes connected to the transcription-related DNA damage response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrin Beta 3 Regulates Cellular Senescence by Activating the TGF-β Pathway
Valentina Rapisarda,Michela Borghesan,Veronica Miguela,Vesela Encheva,Ambrosius P. Snijders,Amaia Lujambio,Ana O'Loghlen +6 more
TL;DR: The data show that integrin β3 subunit is a marker and regulator of senescence and shows an increase in β3 levels in a subset of tissues during aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
USP7 Is a Tumor-Specific WNT Activator for APC-Mutated Colorectal Cancer by Mediating β-Catenin Deubiquitination
Laura Novellasdemunt,Valentina Foglizzo,Laura Cuadrado,Pedro Antas,Anna Kucharska,Vesela Encheva,Ambrosius P. Snijders,Vivian S. W. Li +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that the β-catenin inhibitory domain in APC represents the threshold for pathological levels of Wnt activation and tumor transformation and the Wnt-activating role of USP7 is specific to APC mutations; thus, it can be used as a tumor-specific therapeutic target for most CRCs.
