The actin binding protein profilin 2 is a novel regulator of iron homeostasis
(Blood, 2017)Cellular iron homeostasis is controlled by the iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) 1 and 2 that bind cis-regulatory iron-responsive elements (IRE) on target messenger RNAs (mRNA). We identified profilin 2 ... -
The atypical cyclin CNTD2 promotes colon cancer cell proliferation and migration
(2018-08-07)Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with 8–10% of these tumours presenting a BRAF (V600E) mutation. Cyclins are known oncogenes deregulated in many cancers, but the role ... -
The critical size is set at a single-cell level by growth rate to attain homeostasis and adaptation
(Nature Communications, 2012-08-21)Budding yeast cells are assumed to trigger Start and enter the cell cycle only after they attain a critical size set by external conditions. However, arguing against deterministic models of cell size ... -
