- Cilia are slender, micrometer-long organelles present on the surface of eukaryotic cells. They function in signaling and locomotion and are constructed by intraflagellar transport (IFT). The assembly of IFT complexes into so-called IFT trains to initiate ciliary entry at the base of the cilium remains a matter of debate. Here, we use structural modeling to provide an architectural framework for how RabL2 is anchored at the ciliary base via CEP19 before being handed over to IFT trains for ciliary entry. Our models suggest that the N-terminal domain of CEP43 forms a homo-dimer to anchor at the subdistal appendages of cilia through a direct interaction with CEP350. A long linker region separates the N-terminal domain of CEP43 from the C-terminal domain, which captures CEP19 above the subdistal appendages and close to the distal appendages. Furthermore, we present a structural model for how RabL2-CEP19 associates with the IFT-B complex, providing insight into how RabL2 is handed over from CEP19 to the IFT complex. Interestingly, RabL2 association with the IFT-B complex appears to induce a significant conformational change in the IFT complex via a kink in the coiled-coils of the IFT81/74 proteins, which may prime the IFT machinery for entry into cilia. - Source: PubMed

Boegholm NielsPetriman Narcis ATanvir Niaj MLorentzen Esben - Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and is prevalent in East Asia. Although genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of HCC have identified 23 risk regions, the susceptibility genes underlying these associations largely remain unclear. To identify novel candidate genes for HCC, we conducted liver single-tissue and cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies (TWASs) in two populations of East Asia. - Source: PubMed

Zhang JingjingZhang QingrongHu WenyanLiang YuxuanJiang DekeChen Haitao - Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and several proteins have been identified as entry factors for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, whether long noncoding RNAs are involved in SARS-CoV-2 entry remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of small nucleolar RNA host gene 15 (SNHG15) in SARS-CoV-2 entry using a SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudotyped lentivirus with a luciferase reporter. Overexpression of SNHG15 promoted but SNHG15 knockdown limited SARS-CoV-2 entry in a dose- and time-dependent manner. SNHG15 interacted with Rab-like protein 2A (RABL2A). Overexpression and knockdown of RABL2A produced similar effects on SARS-CoV-2 entry as those of SNHG15. Furthermore, RABL2A knockdown abolished the SNHG15-mediated increase in SARS-CoV-2 entry. In conclusion, SNHG15 is a critical regulatory factor that aids SARS-CoV-2 entry through RABL2A. - Source: PubMed

Lin ZhichaoHuang WenhaiXie ZehuaYi YongshengLi Zumei - In this study, we examined the regulatory role of CCDC34 in the sorafenib sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its functional partners. Wide-type Huh7 and Hep3B and induced sorafenib-resistant (SR) Huh7/SR and Hep3B/SR cells were used as cell models. Immunofluorescent staining and coimmunoprecipitation were performed to check protein-protein interaction. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL), PI/Annexin V staining, and western blot analysis were performed to assess cell response to sorafenib. The results showed that upregulation in HCC was associated with poor survival. Huh7/SR and Hep3B/SR cells had significantly higher expression than the parental cell lines. expression was significantly upregulated in SR HCC cells and interacted with CCDC34 in its GTP-bound state in Huh7/SR and Hep3B/SR cells. RABL2A depletion sensitized Huh7/SR and Hep3B/SR cells to sorafenib. RABL2A Q80L mutant (GTP-bound state locked), but not S35N mutant (GDP-bound state locked) overexpression increased sorafenib IC50 of Huh7 and Hep3B cells. CCDC34 depletion nearly abrogated the protective effects of RABL2A Q80L overexpression both and . RABL2A Q80L overexpression significantly increased the expression of p-p38 and p-JNK, the effects of which were significantly attenuated by CCDC34 depletion. In summary, we infer that the RABL2A-CCDC34 axis plays an important role in mediating p38/MAPK and JNK/MAPK signaling, thereby contributing to acquired sorafenib resistance in HCC. - Source: PubMed
