Robust designation of meiotic crossover sites by CDK-2 through phosphorylation of the MutS gamma complex

Crossover formation is essential for proper segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Here, we show that Caenorhabditis elegans cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK-2) partners with cyclin-like protein COSA-1 to promote crossover formation by promoti ...

Pilus production in Acinetobacter baumannii is growth phase dependent and essential for natural transformation

Melanie Blokesch, Nina Vesel

Acinetobacter baumannii is a severe threat to human health as a frequently multidrug-resistant hospital-acquired pathogen. Part of the danger from this bacterium comes from its genome plasticity and ability to evolve quickly by taking up and recombining ex ...

Pulchelloid A, a sesquiterpene lactone from the Canadian prairie plant Gaillardia aristata inhibits mitosis in human cells

Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez

Background The Canadian prairie ecosystem presents a rich source of natural products from plants that are subjected to herbivory by grazing mammals. This type of ecological competition may contribute to the production of natural products of interest in cel ...

Long noncoding RNA SNHG12 integrates a DNA-PK-mediated DNA damage response and vascular senescence

Johan Auwerx, Norman Lionel Moullan, Lei Chen

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging regulators of biological processes in the vessel wall; however, their role in atherosclerosis remains poorly defined. We used RNA sequencing to profile lncRNAs derived specifically from the aortic intima of Ldlr(- ...

Identification of novel PCTAIRE-1/CDK16 substrates using a chemical genetic screen

Kei Sakamoto, Maria Deak, Caterina Collodet

PCTAIRE-1 (also known as cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) 16), is a Ser/Thr kinase that has been implicated in many cellular processes, including cell cycle, spermatogenesis, neurite outgrowth, and vesicle trafficking. Most recently, it has been propo ...

Premature activation of Cdk1 leads to mitotic events in S phase and embryonic lethality

Patricia Renck Nunes

Cell cycle regulation, especially faithful DNA replication and mitosis, are crucial to maintain genome stability. Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)/cyclin complexes drive most processes in cellular proliferation. In response to DNA damage, cell cycle surveilla ...

Dynamics of protein synthesis and degradation through the cell cycle

David Michael Suter, Andrea Brigitta Alber

Protein expression levels depend on the balance between their synthesis and degradation rates. Even quiescent (G(0)) cells display a continuous turnover of proteins, despite protein levels remaining largely constant over time. In cycling cells, global prot ...

Physiological regulation of the CDK16/PCTAIRE-1 protein kinase and its proposed role in the brain

Saifeldin Nasser Mohamed Ibrahim Shehata

Cell signalling, mediated to a large extent by protein kinase phosphorylation, plays a vital role in regulation of cellular function. PCTAIRE-1 (also known as cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK)16), is a Ser/Thr kinase that has been implicated in many ce ...

Cdk2 strengthens the intra-S checkpoint and counteracts cell cycle exit induced by DNA damage

Gérald Joseph Paul Lossaint, Katarina Bacevic

Although cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) controls the G1/S transition and promotes DNA replication, it is dispensable for cell cycle progression due to redundancy with Cdk1. Yet Cdk2 also has non-redundant functions that can be revealed in certain genetic ...

CDK4 Phosphorylates AMPK alpha 2 to Inhibit Its Activity and Repress Fatty Acid Oxidation

Anita Nasrallah, Caterina Collodet, Judit Castillo Armengol

The roles of CDK4 in the cell cycle have been extensively studied, but less is known about the mechanisms underlying the metabolic regulation by CDK4. Here, we report that CDK4 promotes anaerobic glycolysis and represses fatty acid oxidation in mouse embry ...
