Tandem Ubiquitin Binding Entities (TUBEs) as Tools to Explore Ubiquitin-Proteasome System and PROTAC Drug Discovery

The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is a fancy pathway that entails a number of enzymes and culminates within the formation of a polyubiquitin chain on a goal protein. As its significance is turning into extra evident in drug discovery, there’s a renewed curiosity in understanding the function that polyubiquitin chains play. This has been a…

Co-Overexpression of TWIST1-CSF1 Is a Common Event in Metastatic Oral Cancer and Drives Biologically Aggressive Phenotype

Invasive oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is usually ulcerated and closely infiltrated by pro-inflammatory cells. We carried out a genome-wide profiling of tissues from OSCC sufferers (early versus superior levels) with 10 years follow-up. Co-amplification and co-overexpression of TWIST1, a transcriptional activator of epithelial-mesenchymal-transition (EMT), and colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF1), a serious chemotactic agent for tumor-associated macrophages…
