Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the transcriptional profile (RNA-seq) of wild type and gemin2 Arabidopsis mutants plants exposed to 10ºC for 0, 1 and 24 hours.
Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the transcriptional profile (RNA-seq) of wild type and gemin2 Arabidopsis mutants plants exposed to 10ºC for 0, 1 and 24 hours. WT and gemin2 mutant plants were grown for nine days under continuous white light at 22 degrees centigrades or exposed for 1 or 24 h to 10ºC on the 9th day, before harvesting. Then the transcriptional profile of these plants was analyzed using RNA-seq.
Project description:Tumor suppressor p53 (TP53) is frequently mutated in cancer, often resulting not only in loss of its tumor-suppressive function but also acquisition of dominant-negative and even oncogenic gain-of-function traits. While wild-type p53 levels are tightly regulated, mutants are typically stabilized in tumors, which is crucial for their oncogenic properties. Here, we systematically profiled the factors that regulate protein stability of wild-type and mutant p53 using marker-based genome-wide CRISPR screens. Most regulators of wild-type p53 also regulate p53 mutants, except for p53 R337H regulators, which are largely private to this mutant. Mechanistically, FBXO42 emerged as a positive regulator for a subset of p53 mutants, working with CCDC6 to control USP28-mediated mutant p53 stabilization. Additionally, C16orf72/HAPSTR1 negatively regulates both wild-type p53 and all tested mutants. C16orf72/HAPSTR1 is commonly amplified in breast cancer, and its overexpression reduces p53 levels in mouse mammary epithelium leading to accelerated breast cancer. This study offers a network perspective on p53 stability regulation, potentially guiding strategies to reinforce wild-type p53 or target mutant p53 in cancer.
