The orientation of CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF)-binding sites located in enhancers and promoters dictates the directionality of CTCF binding and thus chromatin topology and gene expression.
Stearic acid covalently binds to transferrin receptor protein 1 (TFR1) and inhibits TFR1–JNK signalling and E3 ubiquitin ligase HUWE1-mediated ubiquitylation of mitofusin, ensuring proper mitochondrial fusion and function.
The nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC) at the ribosome exit site contributes to correct targeting of nascent chains by determining whether MetAP or SRP associate with the ribosome.
Inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin attenuates the translation of interleukin-1α, thus reducing the secretion of inflammatory cytokines by senescent cells.
Transcription-blocking DNA lesions displace spliceosomes from chromatin and activate a non-canonical ataxia-telangiectasia mutated signalling pathway that modulates splicing.
The ubiquitylation of specific Lys residues of 40S ribosomal proteins is stimulated by the unfolded protein response to contribute to translational regulation.
Berkovits and Mayr show that 3′ UTRs generated by alternative polyadenylation can recruit the RNA-binding protein HUR and its effector SET, which regulate the cellular localization of the translated proteins.
