TL;DR: Observations indicate that pRB or another protein that interacts with this binding domain mediates TGF-beta 1 regulation of c-myc gene expression and growth inhibition.

••
TL;DR: It is suggested that in addition to the cdc2 protein kinase, the cyclins are further components of the M phase promoting factor and that cyclin proteolysis provides the mechanism of MPF inactivation and thus exit from mitosis.

TL;DR: It is shown that the magnitude of negative selection can be used to infer the functional importance of individual protein domains of interest, and a broader application of this approach may allow comprehensive identification of protein domains that sustain cancer cells and are suitable for drug targeting.
Abstract: CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology holds great promise for discovering therapeutic targets in cancer and other diseases Current screening strategies target CRISPR-Cas9-induced mutations to the 5' exons of candidate genes, but this approach often produces in-frame variants that retain functionality, which can obscure even strong genetic dependencies Here we overcome this limitation by targeting CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis to exons encoding functional protein domains This generates a higher proportion of null mutations and substantially increases the potency of negative selection We also show that the magnitude of negative selection can be used to infer the functional importance of individual protein domains of interest A screen of 192 chromatin regulatory domains in murine acute myeloid leukemia cells identifies six known drug targets and 19 additional dependencies A broader application of this approach may allow comprehensive identification of protein domains that sustain cancer cells and are suitable for drug targeting

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent gap junction and chemical synapse networks of hermaphrodite C. elegans were assembled using materials from White et al. and new electron micrographs.
Abstract: Despite recent interest in reconstructing neuronal networks, complete wiring diagrams on the level of individual synapses remain scarce and the insights into function they can provide remain unclear. Even for Caenorhabditis elegans, whose neuronal network is relatively small and stereotypical from animal to animal, published wiring diagrams are neither accurate nor complete and self-consistent. Using materials from White et al. and new electron micrographs we assemble whole, self-consistent gap junction and chemical synapse networks of hermaphrodite C. elegans. We propose a method to visualize the wiring diagram, which reflects network signal flow. We calculate statistical and topological properties of the network, such as degree distributions, synaptic multiplicities, and small-world properties, that help in understanding network signal propagation. We identify neurons that may play central roles in information processing, and network motifs that could serve as functional modules of the network. We explore propagation of neuronal activity in response to sensory or artificial stimulation using linear systems theory and find several activity patterns that could serve as substrates of previously described behaviors. Finally, we analyze the interaction between the gap junction and the chemical synapse networks. Since several statistical properties of the C. elegans network, such as multiplicity and motif distributions are similar to those found in mammalian neocortex, they likely point to general principles of neuronal networks. The wiring diagram reported here can help in understanding the mechanistic basis of behavior by generating predictions about future experiments involving genetic perturbations, laser ablations, or monitoring propagation of neuronal activity in response to stimulation.
