We have previously shown that IKKs are aberrantly activated in colon cancer cells leading to SMRT phosphorylation and its release from the chromatin. We now show that IKKalpha phosphorylates the homologous N-CoR corepressor in serines 2345 and 2348 creating a functional 14-3-3 binding domain (RK(p)S(2348)KSP). Moreover, we have analyzed the subcellular localization of N-CoR in 43 colorectal cancer samples and we have found that aberrant cytoplasmic distribution of N-CoR is a general trait of these tumors.

Biomolecular condensates like U-bodies are specialized cellular structures formed through multivalent interactions among intrinsically disordered regions. U-bodies sequester small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes (snRNPs) in the cytoplasm, and their formation in mammalian cells depends on stress conditions. Because of their location adjacent to P-bodies, U-bodies have been considered potential sites for snRNP storage or turnover.

Motor neuron diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and progressive bulbar palsy, involve loss of muscle control resulting from death of motor neurons. Although the exact pathogenesis of these syndromes remains elusive, many are caused by genetically inherited mutations. Thus, it is valuable to identify additional genes that can impact motor neuron survival and function.

Nutrient deprivation is a major trigger of autophagy, a conserved quality control and recycling process essential for cellular and tissue homeostasis. In a high-content image-based screen of the human ubiquitome, we here identify the E3 ligase Pellino 3 (PELI3) as a crucial regulator of starvation-induced autophagy. Mechanistically, PELI3 localizes to autophagic membranes, where it interacts with the ATG8 proteins through an LC3-interacting region (LIR).

The cytokine response arguably plays a central role in dictating the outcome of virus infection, balancing inflammation and healing, which is crucial to resolving infection without destructive immunopathologies.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder typically characterized by insoluble inclusions of hyperphosphorylated TDP-43. The mechanisms underlying toxic TDP-43 accumulation are not understood. Persistent activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is implicated in ALS.
