Immunohistochemical assessment of Pax8 expression during pancreatic islet development and in human neuroendocrine tumors
(Springer Verlag, 2011)
The paired box transcription factor Pax8 is critical for development of the eye, thyroid gland as well as the urinary and reproductive organs. In adult, Pax8 overexpression is associated with kidney, ovarian and thyroid ...

Histone H3K56 Acetylation, Rad52, and Non-DNA Repair Factors Control Double-Strand Break Repair Choice with the Sister Chromatid
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are harmful lesions that arise mainly during replication. The choice of the sister chromatid as the preferential repair template is critical for genome integrity, but the mechanisms that ...

Population Genetic Structure of the Grasshopper Eyprepocnemis plorans in the South and East of the Iberian Peninsula
(Public Library of Science, 2013)
The grasshopper Eyprepocnemis plorans subsp. plorans harbors a very widespread polymorphism for supernumerary (B) chromosomes which appear to have arisen recently. These chromosomes behave as genomic parasites because they ...

TDP2/TTRAP Is the Major 5′-Tyrosyl DNA Phosphodiesterase Activity in Vertebrate Cells and Is Critical for Cellular Resistance to Topoisomerase II-induced DNA Damage
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2011)
Topoisomerase II (Top2) activity involves an intermediate in which the topoisomerase is covalently bound to a DNA double-strand break via a 5′-phosphotyrosyl bond. Although these intermediates are normally transient, they ...

Distinct Roles of Mus81, Yen1, Slx1-Slx4, and Rad1 Nucleases in the Repair of Replication-Born Double-Strand Breaks by Sister Chromatid Exchange
(2012)
Most spontaneous DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) arise during replication and are repaired by homologous recombination (HR) with the sister chromatid. Many proteins participate in HR, but it is often difficult to determine ...

PS Integrins and Laminins: Key Regulators of Cell Migration during Drosophila Embryogenesis
(Public Library of Science, 2011)
During embryonic development, there are numerous cases where organ or tissue formation depends upon the migration of primordial cells. In the Drosophila embryo, the visceral mesoderm (vm) acts as a substrate for the migration ...

PTTG2 silencing results in induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and apoptosis
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013)
Human securin, also known as human pituitary tumor-transforming gene 1 (pttg1), plays a key role in cell-cycle regulation. Two homologous genes, pttg2 and pttg3, have been identified although very little is known about ...

Disease-Causing Mutations in BEST1 Gene Are Associated with Altered Sorting of Bestrophin-1 Protein
(MDPI, 2013)
Mutations in BEST1 gene, encoding the bestrophin-1 (Best1) protein are associated with macular dystrophies. Best1 is predominantly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and is inserted in its basolateral ...
