摘要:Neutrophils, the most abundant and biotoxic immune cells, extrude nuclear DNA into the extracellular space to maintain homeostasis. Termed neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), these protein-modified and decondensed extracellular DNA scaffolds control infection and are involved in coagulation, autoimmunity and cancer1,2. Here we show how myeloperoxidase (MPO), a highly expressed neutrophil protein, disassembles nucleosomes, thereby facilitating NET formation, yet also binds stably to NETs ext...

摘要:Enzymes are the molecular machines of life, and a key property that governs their function is substrate specificity-the ability of an enzyme to recognize and selectively act on particular substrates. This specificity originates from the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the enzyme active site and complicated transition state of the reaction1,2. Many enzymes can promiscuously catalyse reactions or act on substrates beyond those for which they were originally evolved1,3, 4-5. However, millions...

摘要:Chromosomal linkages formed through crossover recombination are essential for the accurate segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis1. The DNA events of recombination are linked to structural components of meiotic chromosomes2. Imperatively, the biased resolution of double Holliday junction (dHJ) intermediates into crossovers3,4 occurs within the synaptonemal complex (SC), the meiosis-specific structure that mediates end-to-end synapsis of homologues during the pachytene stage5,6. H...

摘要:Conditional deletion of caspase-8 in mouse epidermal keratinocytes (Casp8(E-KO)) causes necroptosis-driven lethal dermatitis(1-7). Here we find that the loss of Casp8 leads to an accumulation of cytosolic DNA that is responsible for the activation of a cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING)-mediated transcriptional program. Genetic and biochemical evidence indicate that STING upregulates both Z-DNA-binding protein 1 (ZBP1) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like pse...

摘要:The concentration of proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions must be tightly controlled to maintain cellular homeostasis1,2. However, mechanisms for collective control of these proteins, which tend to localize to membraneless condensates, are less understood than pathways mediated by membrane-bound organelles3,4. Here we report 'interstasis', a homeostatic mechanism in which increased concentration of proteins within RNA-protein condensates induces the sequestration of their own m...
