ZNF582 promoter methylation predicts cervical cancer radiosensitivity and ZNF582 protein overexpression reduces radiosensitivity by cell cycle arrest in S phase

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between ZNF582 promoter methylation (ZNF582m) level and radiosensitivity of cervical cancer and its biological basis.This was a prospective multicenter clinical study, comprising two independent cohorts of locally advanced cervical cancer patients.Exfoliated cervical cells were collected at 0, 24, 30

The ZZ domain of HERC2 is a receptor of arginylated substrates

Abstract The E3 ubiquitin ligase HERC2 has been linked to neurological diseases and cancer, however it remains a poorly characterized human protein.Here, we show that the ZZ domain of HERC2 (HERC2ZZ) recognizes a mimetic of the Nt-R cargo degradation signal.NMR titration experiments and Events mutagenesis results reveal that the Nt-R mimetic peptid
