Here, we constructed a targeted gene panel consisting of 83 genes reported to be causative for monogenic obesity or diabetes. We performed this panel in 481 patients to detect causative variants and compared these results with whole-exome sequencing (WES) data available for 146 of these patients. The coverage of targeted gene panel sequencing was significantly higher than that of WES. The diagnostic yield in patients sequenced by the panel was 32.9% with subsequent WES leading to three additional diagnoses with two novel genes. In total, 178 variants in 83 genes were detected in 146 patients by targeted sequencing. Three of the 178 variants were missed by WES, although the WES-only approach had a similar diagnostic yield. For the 335 samples only receiving targeted sequencing, the diagnostic yield was 32.2%. In conclusion, taking into account the lower costs, shorter turnaround time, and higher quality of data, targeted sequencing is a more effective screening method for monogenic obesity and diabetes compared to WES. Therefore, this approach could be routinely established and used as a first-tier test in clinical practice for specific patients.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10847719/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9697132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the cell changes its identity in the cell-fate decision-making process, extensive rearrangements of chromosome structures occur accompanied by large-scale adaptations of gene expression, underscoring the importance of chromosome dynamics in shaping genome function. Over the last two decades, rapid development of experimental methods has provided unprecedented data to characterize the hierarchical structures and dynamic properties of chromosomes. In parallel, these enormous data offer valuable opportunities for developing quantitative computational models. Here, we review a variety of large-scale polymer models developed to investigate the structures and dynamics of chromosomes. Different from the underlying modeling strategies, these approaches can be classified into data-driven ('top-down') and physics-based ('bottom-up') categories. We discuss their contributions to offering valuable insights into the relationships among the structures, dynamics, and functions of chromosomes and propose the perspective of developing data integration approaches from different experimental technologies and multidisciplinary theoretical/simulation methods combined with different modeling strategies.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10782906/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9742628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, whether BRSK2 is associated with human type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has not been determined. Here, we report that BRSK2 genetic variants are closely related to worsening glucose metabolism due to hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance in the Chinese population. BRSK2 protein levels are significantly elevated in β cells from T2DM patients and high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice due to enhanced protein stability. Mice with inducible β-cell-specific Brsk2 knockout (βKO) exhibit normal metabolism with a high potential for insulin secretion under chow-diet conditions. Moreover, βKO mice are protected from HFD-induced hyperinsulinemia, obesity, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance. Conversely, gain-of-function BRSK2 in mature β cells reversibly triggers hyperglycemia due to β-cell hypersecretion-coupled insulin resistance. Mechanistically, BRSK2 senses lipid signals and induces basal insulin secretion in a kinase-dependent manner. The enhanced basal insulin secretion drives insulin resistance and β-cell exhaustion and thus the onset of T2DM in mice fed an HFD or with gain-of-function BRSK2 in β cells. These findings reveal that BRSK2 links hyperinsulinemia to systematic insulin resistance via interplay between β cells and insulin-sensitive tissues in the populations carrying human genetic variants or under nutrient-overload conditions.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10782904/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9840654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identifying cell surface markers specifically expressed in chemoresistant cancer cells (CCCs) could facilitate targeted therapies to overcome chemoresistance. We performed an antibody-based screen and found that TRA-1-60 and TRA-1-81, two 'stemness' cell surface markers, are highly enriched in CCCs. Furthermore, TRA-1-60+/TRA-1-81+ cells are chemoresistant compared to TRA-1-60-/TRA-1-81- cells. Transcriptome profiling identified UGT1A10, shown to be both necessary and sufficient to maintain TRA-1-60/TRA-1-81 expression and chemoresistance. From a high-content chemical screen, we identified Cymarin, which downregulates UGT1A10, eliminates TRA-1-60/TRA-1-81 expression, and increases chemosensitivity both in vitro and in vivo. Finally, TRA-1-60/TRA-1-81 expression is highly specific in primary cancer tissue and positively correlated with chemoresistance and short survival, which highlights their potentiality for targeted therapy. Therefore, we discovered a novel CCC surface marker regulated by a pathway that promotes chemoresistance, as well as a leading drug candidate to target this pathway.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10847630/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9643966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a substantial proportion of HCC patients have either normal or marginally increased AFP levels in serum, and the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. In the present study, we provided in vitro and in vivo evidence that heat shock protein gp96 promoted AFP expression at the transcriptional level in HCC. NR5A2 was identified as a key transcription factor for the AFP gene, and its stability was enhanced by gp96. A further mechanistic study by co-immunoprecipitation, GST pull-down, and molecular docking showed gp96 and the SUMO E3 ligase RanBP2 competitively binding to NR5A2 at the sites spanning from aa 507 to aa 539. The binding of gp96 inhibited SUMOylation, ubiquitination, and subsequent degradation of NR5A2. In addition, clinical analysis of HCC patients indicated that gp96 expression in tumors was positively correlated with serum AFP levels. Therefore, our study uncovered a novel mechanism that gp96 regulates the stability of its client proteins by directly affecting their SUMOylation and ubiquitination. These findings will help in designing more accurate AFP-based HCC diagnosis and progression monitoring approaches.","PeriodicalId":16433,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9489721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on our recent cryo-electron microscopic analyses of human CCAN structure, we investigated how dynamic phosphorylation of human CENP-N regulates accurate chromosome segregation. Our mass spectrometric analyses revealed mitotic phosphorylation of CENP-N by CDK1, which modulates the CENP-L-CENP-N interaction for accurate chromosome segregation and CCAN organization. Perturbation of CENP-N phosphorylation is shown to prevent proper chromosome alignment and activate the spindle assembly checkpoint.

During infections, L. pneumophila releases over 300 effector proteins into host cells through an Icm/Dot type IV secretion system to manipulate the host defense system for survival within the host. Notably, certain effector proteins mediate posttranslational modifications (PTMs), serving as useful approaches exploited by L. pneumophila to modify host proteins. Some effectors catalyze the addition of host protein PTMs, while others mediate the removal of PTMs from host proteins. In this review, we summarize L. pneumophila effector-mediated PTMs of host proteins, including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, glycosylation, AMPylation, phosphocholination, methylation, and ADP-ribosylation, as well as dephosphorylation, deubiquitination, deAMPylation, deADP-ribosylation, dephosphocholination, and delipidation.
