Avian influenza viruses suppress innate immunity by inducingtrans-transcriptional readthrough via SSU72.
Published: March, 2022

Abstract: Innate immunity plays critical antiviral roles. The highly virulent avian influenza viruses (AIVs) H5N1, H7N9, and H5N6 can better escape host innate immune responses than the less virulent seasonal H1N1 virus. Here, we report a mechanism by which...

A predominant enhancer co-amplified with the oncogene is necessary andsufficient for its expression in squamous cancer
Published: December, 2021

Abstract: Amplification and overexpression of the SOX2 oncogene represent a hallmark of squamous cancers originating from diverse tissue types. Here, we find that squamous cancers selectively amplify a 3’ noncoding region together with SOX2, which har...

MICAL1 regulates actin cytoskeleton organization, directional cellmigration and the growth of human breast cancer cells as orthotopicxenograft tumours.
Published: October, 2021

Abstract: The Molecule Interacting with CasL 1 (MICAL1) monooxygenase has emerged as an important regulator of cytoskeleton organization via actin oxidation. Although filamentous actin (F-actin) increases MICAL1 monooxygenase activity, hydrogen peroxide (HO...

A gene therapy for inherited blindness using dCas9-VPR–mediatedtranscriptional activation
Published: August, 2020

Abstract: Catalytically inactive dCas9 fused to transcriptional activators (dCas9-VPR) enables activation of silent genes. Many disease genes have counterparts, which serve similar functions but are expressed in distinct cell types. One attractive option to...

CRISPR-based gene knockout screens reveal deubiquitinases involved in HIV-1 latency in two Jurkat cell models.
Published: March, 2020

Abstract: The major barrier to a HIV-1 cure is the persistence of latent genomes despite treatment with antiretrovirals. To investigate host factors which promote HIV-1 latency, we conducted a genome-wide functional knockout screen using CRISPR-Cas9 in a HI...
