    Neandertal roots: Cranial and chronological evidence from Sima de los Huesos (2014)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-06-21
    Description: Seventeen Middle Pleistocene crania from the Sima de los Huesos site (Atapuerca, Spain) are analyzed, including seven new specimens. This sample makes it possible to thoroughly characterize a Middle Pleistocene hominin paleodeme and to address hypotheses about the origin and evolution of the Neandertals. Using a variety of techniques, the hominin-bearing layer could be reassigned to a period around 430,000 years ago. The sample shows a consistent morphological pattern with derived Neandertal features present in the face and anterior vault, many of which are related to the masticatory apparatus. This suggests that facial modification was the first step in the evolution of the Neandertal lineage, pointing to a mosaic pattern of evolution, with different anatomical and functional modules evolving at different rates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Arsuaga, J L -- Martinez, I -- Arnold, L J -- Aranburu, A -- Gracia-Tellez, A -- Sharp, W D -- Quam, R M -- Falgueres, C -- Pantoja-Perez, A -- Bischoff, J -- Poza-Rey, E -- Pares, J M -- Carretero, J M -- Demuro, M -- Lorenzo, C -- Sala, N -- Martinon-Torres, M -- Garcia, N -- Alcazar de Velasco, A -- Cuenca-Bescos, G -- Gomez-Olivencia, A -- Moreno, D -- Pablos, A -- Shen, C-C -- Rodriguez, L -- Ortega, A I -- Garcia, R -- Bonmati, A -- Bermudez de Castro, J M -- Carbonell, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Jun 20;344(6190):1358-63. doi: 10.1126/science.1253958.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centro Mixto UCM-ISCIII de Evolucion y Comportamiento Humanos, Madrid, Spain.

    Tracking cancer drugs in living cells by thermal profiling of the proteome (2014)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-04
    Description: The thermal stability of proteins can be used to assess ligand binding in living cells. We have generalized this concept by determining the thermal profiles of more than 7000 proteins in human cells by means of mass spectrometry. Monitoring the effects of small-molecule ligands on the profiles delineated more than 50 targets for the kinase inhibitor staurosporine. We identified the heme biosynthesis enzyme ferrochelatase as a target of kinase inhibitors and suggest that its inhibition causes the phototoxicity observed with vemurafenib and alectinib. Thermal shifts were also observed for downstream effectors of drug treatment. In live cells, dasatinib induced shifts in BCR-ABL pathway proteins, including CRK/CRKL. Thermal proteome profiling provides an unbiased measure of drug-target engagement and facilitates identification of markers for drug efficacy and toxicity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Savitski, Mikhail M -- Reinhard, Friedrich B M -- Franken, Holger -- Werner, Thilo -- Savitski, Maria Falth -- Eberhard, Dirk -- Martinez Molina, Daniel -- Jafari, Rozbeh -- Dovega, Rebecca Bakszt -- Klaeger, Susan -- Kuster, Bernhard -- Nordlund, Par -- Bantscheff, Marcus -- Drewes, Gerard -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Oct 3;346(6205):1255784. doi: 10.1126/science.1255784.

    Antifungal drug resistance evoked via RNAi-dependent epimutations (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-08-01
    Description: Microorganisms evolve via a range of mechanisms that may include or involve sexual/parasexual reproduction, mutators, aneuploidy, Hsp90 and even prions. Mechanisms that may seem detrimental can be repurposed to generate diversity. Here we show that the human fungal pathogen Mucor circinelloides develops spontaneous resistance to the antifungal drug FK506 (tacrolimus) via two distinct mechanisms. One involves Mendelian mutations that confer stable drug resistance; the other occurs via an epigenetic RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated pathway resulting in unstable drug resistance. The peptidylprolyl isomerase FKBP12 interacts with FK506 forming a complex that inhibits the protein phosphatase calcineurin. Calcineurin inhibition by FK506 blocks M. circinelloides transition to hyphae and enforces yeast growth. Mutations in the fkbA gene encoding FKBP12 or the calcineurin cnbR or cnaA genes confer FK506 resistance and restore hyphal growth. In parallel, RNAi is spontaneously triggered to silence the fkbA gene, giving rise to drug-resistant epimutants. FK506-resistant epimutants readily reverted to the drug-sensitive wild-type phenotype when grown without exposure to the drug. The establishment of these epimutants is accompanied by generation of abundant fkbA small RNAs and requires the RNAi pathway as well as other factors that constrain or reverse the epimutant state. Silencing involves the generation of a double-stranded RNA trigger intermediate using the fkbA mature mRNA as a template to produce antisense fkbA RNA. This study uncovers a novel epigenetic RNAi-based epimutation mechanism controlling phenotypic plasticity, with possible implications for antimicrobial drug resistance and RNAi-regulatory mechanisms in fungi and other eukaryotes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4177005/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4177005/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Calo, Silvia -- Shertz-Wall, Cecelia -- Lee, Soo Chan -- Bastidas, Robert J -- Nicolas, Francisco E -- Granek, Joshua A -- Mieczkowski, Piotr -- Torres-Martinez, Santiago -- Ruiz-Vazquez, Rosa M -- Cardenas, Maria E -- Heitman, Joseph -- R01 AI039115/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI50438-10/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA154499/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA154499-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI039115/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R37 AI39115-17/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Sep 25;513(7519):555-8. doi: 10.1038/nature13575.

    Derived immune and ancestral pigmentation alleles in a 7,000-year-old Mesolithic European (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-01-28
    Description: Ancient genomic sequences have started to reveal the origin and the demographic impact of farmers from the Neolithic period spreading into Europe. The adoption of farming, stock breeding and sedentary societies during the Neolithic may have resulted in adaptive changes in genes associated with immunity and diet. However, the limited data available from earlier hunter-gatherers preclude an understanding of the selective processes associated with this crucial transition to agriculture in recent human evolution. Here we sequence an approximately 7,000-year-old Mesolithic skeleton discovered at the La Brana-Arintero site in Leon, Spain, to retrieve a complete pre-agricultural European human genome. Analysis of this genome in the context of other ancient samples suggests the existence of a common ancient genomic signature across western and central Eurasia from the Upper Paleolithic to the Mesolithic. The La Brana individual carries ancestral alleles in several skin pigmentation genes, suggesting that the light skin of modern Europeans was not yet ubiquitous in Mesolithic times. Moreover, we provide evidence that a significant number of derived, putatively adaptive variants associated with pathogen resistance in modern Europeans were already present in this hunter-gatherer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4269527/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4269527/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Olalde, Inigo -- Allentoft, Morten E -- Sanchez-Quinto, Federico -- Santpere, Gabriel -- Chiang, Charleston W K -- DeGiorgio, Michael -- Prado-Martinez, Javier -- Rodriguez, Juan Antonio -- Rasmussen, Simon -- Quilez, Javier -- Ramirez, Oscar -- Marigorta, Urko M -- Fernandez-Callejo, Marcos -- Prada, Maria Encina -- Encinas, Julio Manuel Vidal -- Nielsen, Rasmus -- Netea, Mihai G -- Novembre, John -- Sturm, Richard A -- Sabeti, Pardis -- Marques-Bonet, Tomas -- Navarro, Arcadi -- Willerslev, Eske -- Lalueza-Fox, Carles -- F32 GM106656/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- F32GM106656/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG007089/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01-HG007089/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Mar 13;507(7491):225-8. doi: 10.1038/nature12960.

    DNA-damage-induced differentiation of leukaemic cells as an anti-cancer barrier (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-08-01
    Description: Self-renewal is the hallmark feature both of normal stem cells and cancer stem cells. Since the regenerative capacity of normal haematopoietic stem cells is limited by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and DNA double-strand breaks, we speculated that DNA damage might also constrain leukaemic self-renewal and malignant haematopoiesis. Here we show that the histone methyl-transferase MLL4, a suppressor of B-cell lymphoma, is required for stem-cell activity and an aggressive form of acute myeloid leukaemia harbouring the MLL-AF9 oncogene. Deletion of MLL4 enhances myelopoiesis and myeloid differentiation of leukaemic blasts, which protects mice from death related to acute myeloid leukaemia. MLL4 exerts its function by regulating transcriptional programs associated with the antioxidant response. Addition of reactive oxygen species scavengers or ectopic expression of FOXO3 protects MLL4(-/-) MLL-AF9 cells from DNA damage and inhibits myeloid maturation. Similar to MLL4 deficiency, loss of ATM or BRCA1 sensitizes transformed cells to differentiation, suggesting that myeloid differentiation is promoted by loss of genome integrity. Indeed, we show that restriction-enzyme-induced double-strand breaks are sufficient to induce differentiation of MLL-AF9 blasts, which requires cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(Cip1) (Cdkn1a) activity. In summary, we have uncovered an unexpected tumour-promoting role of genome guardians in enforcing the oncogene-induced differentiation blockade in acute myeloid leukaemia.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4410707/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4410707/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Santos, Margarida A -- Faryabi, Robert B -- Ergen, Aysegul V -- Day, Amanda M -- Malhowski, Amy -- Canela, Andres -- Onozawa, Masahiro -- Lee, Ji-Eun -- Callen, Elsa -- Gutierrez-Martinez, Paula -- Chen, Hua-Tang -- Wong, Nancy -- Finkel, Nadia -- Deshpande, Aniruddha -- Sharrow, Susan -- Rossi, Derrick J -- Ito, Keisuke -- Ge, Kai -- Aplan, Peter D -- Armstrong, Scott A -- Nussenzweig, Andre -- CA140575/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA66996/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA008748/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R00 CA139009/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK098263/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK100689/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2014 Oct 2;514(7520):107-11. doi: 10.1038/nature13483.

    Analysis of orthologous groups reveals archease and DDX1 as tRNA splicing factors (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-05-30
    Description: RNA ligases have essential roles in many cellular processes in eukaryotes, archaea and bacteria, including in RNA repair and stress-induced splicing of messenger RNA. In archaea and eukaryotes, RNA ligases also have a role in transfer RNA splicing to generate functional tRNAs required for protein synthesis. We recently identified the human tRNA splicing ligase, a multimeric protein complex with RTCB (also known as HSPC117, C22orf28, FAAP and D10Wsu52e) as the essential subunit. The functions of the additional complex components ASW (also known as C2orf49), CGI-99 (also known as C14orf166), FAM98B and the DEAD-box helicase DDX1 in the context of RNA ligation have remained unclear. Taking advantage of clusters of eukaryotic orthologous groups, here we find that archease (ARCH; also known as ZBTB8OS), a protein of unknown function, is required for full activity of the human tRNA ligase complex and, in cooperation with DDX1, facilitates the formation of an RTCB-guanylate intermediate central to mammalian RNA ligation. Our findings define a role for DDX1 in the context of the human tRNA ligase complex and suggest that the widespread co-occurrence of archease and RtcB proteins implies evolutionary conservation of their functional interplay.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4417724/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4417724/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Popow, Johannes -- Jurkin, Jennifer -- Schleiffer, Alexander -- Martinez, Javier -- P 24687/Austrian Science Fund FWF/Austria -- England -- Nature. 2014 Jul 3;511(7507):104-7. doi: 10.1038/nature13284.

    Hippocampal neurogenesis regulates forgetting during adulthood and infancy (2014)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-05-09
    Description: Throughout life, new neurons are continuously added to the dentate gyrus. As this continuous addition remodels hippocampal circuits, computational models predict that neurogenesis leads to degradation or forgetting of established memories. Consistent with this, increasing neurogenesis after the formation of a memory was sufficient to induce forgetting in adult mice. By contrast, during infancy, when hippocampal neurogenesis levels are high and freshly generated memories tend to be rapidly forgotten (infantile amnesia), decreasing neurogenesis after memory formation mitigated forgetting. In precocial species, including guinea pigs and degus, most granule cells are generated prenatally. Consistent with reduced levels of postnatal hippocampal neurogenesis, infant guinea pigs and degus did not exhibit forgetting. However, increasing neurogenesis after memory formation induced infantile amnesia in these species.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Akers, Katherine G -- Martinez-Canabal, Alonso -- Restivo, Leonardo -- Yiu, Adelaide P -- De Cristofaro, Antonietta -- Hsiang, Hwa-Lin Liz -- Wheeler, Anne L -- Guskjolen, Axel -- Niibori, Yosuke -- Shoji, Hirotaka -- Ohira, Koji -- Richards, Blake A -- Miyakawa, Tsuyoshi -- Josselyn, Sheena A -- Frankland, Paul W -- MOP74650/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- MOP86762/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 May 9;344(6184):598-602. doi: 10.1126/science.1248903.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Program in Neurosciences and Mental Health, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, M5G 1X8, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24812394" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
