We isolated human cDNA clone encoding Bood POZ containing gene type 2 (BPOZ-2) as a gene with a product that binds to TdT interacting factor 1 (TdIF1) using a yeast two-hybrid system. BPOZ-2 is an adaptor for E3 ligase CUL3 and participates in developmental processes. The binding between BPOZ-2 and TdIF1 was confirmed by GST pull-down and immunoprecipitation assays using specific antibodies against BPOZ-2 and TdIF1 in vitro and in vivo. Although when BPOZ-2 solely was expressed in COS7 cells, BPOZ-2 was observed mainly within the cytoplasm, co-transfection of pEGFP-BPOZ-2 and pDsRed-TdIF1 into COS7 cells resulted in co-localization of EGFP-BPOZ-2 and DsRed-TdIF1 within the nucleus. TdIF1 may recruit BPOZ-2 into the nucleus from the cytoplasm by directly binding to BPOZ-2. BPOZ-2 enhanced TdT ubiquitylation when TdIF1 was expressed together with BPOZ-2 in 293T cells, strongly suggesting that the recruitment of BPOZ-2 into the nucleus from the cytoplasm is significant for the TdT ubiquitylation within the nucleus.

Background: Glioma is the most common primary intracranial tumor. This study investigated the mechanism of ubiquitin-specific processing protease 7 (USP7) on the immune escape of glioma cells via the regulation of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1).
Methods: USP7 and PD-L1 expressions in glioma and normal brain tissues were detected using quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blot.

Aims: Heart failure (HF) is a progressive disease with recurrent hospitalizations and high mortality. However, the mechanisms underlying HF remain unclear. The present study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)/Src homology domain 2-containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) axis in HF.

Evolving strategies to counter cancer initiation and progression rely on the identification of novel therapeutic targets that exploit the aberrant genetic changes driving oncogenesis. Several chromatin associated enzymes have been shown to influence post-translational modification (PTM) in DNA, histones, and non-histone proteins. Any deregulation of this core group of enzymes often leads to cancer development.

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibition has been reported to protect against ischemic stroke and prolong survival after sepsis in animal models. However, it remains unknown whether HDAC6 inhibition offers a renoprotective effect after acute kidney injury (AKI). In this study, we examined the effect of tubastatin A (TA), a highly selective inhibitor of HDAC6, on AKI in a murine model of glycerol (GL) injection-induced rhabdomyolysis.

Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) is known to promote estrogen receptor (ER)α-mediated transcription in breast cancer cells. To further characterize the regulation of ERα-mediated transcription by CARM1, we screened CARM1-interacting proteins by yeast two-hybrid. Here, we have identified an E3 ubiquitin ligase, DAZ (deleted in azoospermia)-interacting protein 3 (DZIP3), as a novel CARM1-binding protein.
