Cyclin A is indispensable for S phase cell cycle progression and is suggested to be a crucial target of cell adhesion signals. In this study, we demonstrate that beta3-endonexin, a molecule known to associate with the integrin beta3 cytoplasmic domain, specifically binds cyclin A. Deletion of the amino-terminal 52-amino-acid residues including the cyclin-binding RxL motif abolishes the ability of beta3-endonexin to interact with cyclin A. In an in vitro kinase assay, beta3-endonexin inhibits pRB kinase activity associated with cyclin A-Cdk2 while leaving its histone H1 kinase activity unaffected. Coexpression of beta3-endonexin in yeast cells overcomes growth suppression caused by an activation of cyclin A-associated kinase. Our results indicate that beta3-endonexin is a novel cyclin A-binding molecule that regulates cyclin A-associated pRB kinase activity.

Mutations in the gene (S phase Cyclin A-Associated Protein residing in the Endoplasmic Reticulum) have recently been associated with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and intellectual disability (ID). In 2011, a possible involvement of in human diseases was discovered for the first time due to the identification of a homozygous mutation causing ID in an Iranian family. Later, five studies were published in 2019 that described patients with autosomal recessive syndromic retinitis pigmentosa (arRP) accompanied by ID and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Aims: Circular RNA (circRNA) S-phase cyclin A-associated protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (circSCAPER, ID: hsa_circ_0104595) has been found to be highly expressed in osteoarthritis (OA) patients and has been associated with the severity of OA. Hence, the role and mechanisms underlying circSCAPER in OA were investigated in this study.
Methods: In vitro cultured human normal chondrocyte C28/I2 was exposed to interleukin (IL)-1β to mimic the microenvironment of OA.

This study hypothesized that female peri-conceptional undernutrition evokes transcriptomic alterations in the pig myometrium during the peri-implantation period. Myometrium was collected on days 15-16 of pregnancy from pigs fed a normal- (n = 4) or restricted-diet (n = 4) from conception until day 9th of pregnancy, and the transcriptomic profiles of the tissue were compared using Porcine (V2) Expression Microarrays 4 × 44 K. In restricted diet-fed pigs, 1021 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with fold change ≥ 1.

The Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) immediate-early protein ICP22 interacts with cellular proteins to inhibit host cell gene expression and promote viral gene expression. ICP22 inhibits phosphorylation of Ser2 of the RNA polymerase II (pol II) carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) and productive elongation of pol II. Here we show that ICP22 affects elongation of pol II through both the early-elongation checkpoint and the poly(A)-associated elongation checkpoint of a protein-coding gene model.
