Insights into a Mysterious CRISPR Adaptation Factor, Cas4.

abstract：:A variety of debilitating diseases including diabetes, Alzheimer's, Huntington's, Parkinson's, and prion-based diseases are linked to stress within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Using S. cerevisiae, we sought to determine the relationship between protein misfolding, ER stress, and cell death. In the absence of ERV29...

abstract：:The protein 53BP1 plays a central regulatory role in DNA double-strand break repair. 53BP1 relocates to chromatin by recognizing RNF168-mediated mono-ubiquitylation of histone H2A Lys15 in the nucleosome core particle dimethylated at histone H4 Lys20 (NCP-ubme). 53BP1 relocation is terminated by ubiquitin ligases RNF1...
