Partners in Crime: Clandestine Operations among RAS-RAF Accomplices in Promoting Tumorigenesis.

abstract：:Yeast Sir2 protein regulates chromatin structure and suppresses recombination at the multiple tandem rDNA array. In the current issue of Cell, Kobayashi and colleagues reinvestigate rDNA dynamics in sir2 strains and find that Sir2 is necessary to recruit cohesins to the array, which influences the nature of rDNA recom...

However, how these three pillars of protein function are integrated is still only poorly understood. Here we show how these pillars are connected in Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), a drug ta...
