MED23: a new Mediator of H2B monoubiquitylation.
The Mediator multiprotein complex physically links transcription factors to RNA polymerase II and the basal transcription machinery. While the Mediator complex has been shown to be required for transcriptional initiation and elongation, the understanding of its interplay with histone modifying enzymes and post‐translational modifications remains elusive. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Yao e...
متن کاملMediator MED23 links insulin signaling to the adipogenesis transcription cascade.
Adipocyte differentiation is orchestrated by multiple signaling pathways and a temporally regulated transcriptional cascade. However, the mechanisms by which insulin signaling is linked to this cascade remain unclear. Here we show that the Med23 subunit of the Mediator Complex and its interacting transcription factor Elk1 are critical regulators of adipogenesis. Med23(-/-) embryonic fibroblast ...
متن کاملSelective requirement for Mediator MED23 in Ras-active lung cancer.
K-RAS-activating mutations occur frequently in non-small cell lung cancer, leading to aberrant activation of the Ras-MAPK signaling pathway that contributes to the malignant phenotype. However, the development of Ras-targeted therapeutics remains challenging. Here, we show that MED23, a component of the multisubunit Mediator complex that is known to integrate signaling and gene activities, is s...
متن کاملAnimal Models Of Liver Cirrhosis And Fibrosis
Animal modeling is a crucial necessity in clinical studies of liver diseases. Authenticity of the data which are produced using this tool under different conditions and accuracy of the analyses and assessments which would be based on such data sets is completely dependent on the adoption of a standardized methodology for analyzes and assessment of these data sets. Cirrhosis and Fibrosis are amo...
متن کاملCFTR regulates acute inflammatory responses in macrophages.
BACKGROUND Mutation of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the airway epithelial cells can lead to recurrent airway inflammation in cystic fibrosis (CF). Dysfunction of CFTR in neutrophils could contribute to LPS-induced acute lung inflammation. Deficiency of CFTR could also facilitate platelet aggregation and neutrophil-platelet interaction and promote inflammation. ...
