    SETD1A protects from senescence through regulation of the mitotic gene expression program

    SETD1A, a Set1/COMPASS family member maintaining histone-H3-lysine-4 (H3K4) methylation on transcriptionally active promoters, is overexpressed in breast cancer. Here, we show that SETD1A supports mitotic process...

    SETD1A modulates cell cycle progression through a miRNA network that regulates p53 target genes

    Expression of the p53-inducible antiproliferative gene BTG2 is suppressed in many cancers in the absence of inactivating gene mutations, suggesting alternative mechanisms of silencing. Using a shRNA screen target...

    Alternative splicing of CD44 mRNA by ESRP1 enhances lung colonization of metastatic cancer cell

    In cancer metastasis, various environmental stressors attack the disseminating cells. The successful colonization of cancer cells in secondary sites therefore requires the ability of the cells to avoid the con...
