Hsp90-mediated client folding and maturation are governed by its co-chaperones, but their functionality in chaperoning CRAF kinase to support signaling under physiological conditions remains poorly understood. Here, we show that Hsp70/Hsp90 organizing protein (HOP) associates with CRAF kinase tomaintain its activity and facilitates MAPK pathway activation. This activation is mediated by TPR2A-2B-DP2 domain of HOP and requires efficient binding to Hsp90. Although Cdc37 recruits Hsp90, it cannot compensate for HOP function. Downregulation of HOP/Sti1 in yeast and mammalian cell culture significantly reduces the CRAF signaling. Our data suggest that Hsp90 is recruited to CRAF in two distinct steps: first during folding/maturation via HOP and Cdc37, and later during activation mediated by HOP. Therefore, HOP is a regulator of CRAF kinase during activation of MAPK pathway and serves as a modulator of growth signaling beyond its client folding and maturation function.</p>","PeriodicalId":18658,"journal":{"name":"Molecular and Cellular Biology","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147691097","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}

With aging, splicing fidelity weakens, contributing to decline in RNA homeostasis and disrupting essential cellular functions, including mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, genome stability, and immune regulation, and in turn accelerating tissue and organ dysfunction. Evidence from senescent cells, aged tissues, and model organisms shows that altered levels of splicing factors and increased RNA polymerase II elongation rates impair co-transcriptional splicing and promote mis-spliced isoforms that reinforce senescence and drive pathology. Dysfunction of RNA-binding proteins further contributes to aberrant splicing, linking splicing defects to age-related diseases such as atherosclerosis, osteoarthritis, sarcopenia, and neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Therapeutic strategies to correct splicing defects, such as antisense oligonucleotides, RNA interference, CRISPR-Cas systems, ADAR-mediated editing, and RNA aptamers, can restore a homeostatic balance of mRNA isoforms. However, major challenges remain, including distinguishing adaptive physiological from pathological splicing 'noise' and achieving targeted delivery to tissues.

Hi-C analyses demonstrated that ectopic telomeric repeats can interact with native telomeres. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments with an anti-G4-DNA antibody showed that establishment of H3K27me was not correlated with the presence of G4 DNA. Other ChIP experiments demonstrated that the telomere repeat-binding protein TRF-1, which has been demonstrated to be a member of the shelterin complex in other systems, binds to interstitial telomere repeats that induce H3K27me.
