Loss-of-function mutations within the IL-2 inducible kinase ITK in patients with EBV-associated lymphoproliferative diseases
The purpose of this study was the appraisal of the clinical and functional consequences of germline mutations within the gene for the IL-2 inducible T-cell kinase, ITK. Among patients with Epstein-Barr virus-d...

The centrosomal protein TACC3 controls paclitaxel sensitivity by modulating a premature senescence program
Microtubule-interfering cancer drugs such as paclitaxel (PTX) often cause chemoresistance and severe side effects, including neurotoxicity. To explore potentially novel antineoplastic molecular targets, we inv...

GTPase activating proteins: structural and functional insights 18 years after discovery
The conversion of guanosine triphosphate (GTP) to guanosine diphosphate (GDP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi) by guanine nucleotide binding proteins (GNBPs) is a fundamental process in living cells and represents an...

Structural and mechanistic insights into the interaction between Rho and mammalian Dia
Formins are involved in a variety of cellular processes that require the remodelling of the cytoskeleton. They contain formin homology domains FH1 and FH2, which initiate actin assembly1,2. The Diaphanous-related...

Characterization of a Paracoccus denitrificans mutant pleiotropically impaired in nitrogen metabolism
A Tn5 insertional prototrophic mutant of Paracoccus denitrificans (UBM219) was generated which grew on high (>1 mM) but not low (<0.5 mM) ammonium as sole nitrogen source. It did not utilize nitrate and most amin...
