Pathogenic bi-allelic variants in the SPG11 gene result in rare motor neuron disorders such as Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia type 11, Charcot-Marie Tooth, and Juvenile Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis-5. The main challenge in SPG11-linked disease research is the lack of antibodies against SPG11 encoded spatacsin. Here, we describe the CRISPR/Cas9 mediated generation and validation of an endogenously tagged SPG11- human iPSC line that contains an HA tag at the C-terminus of SPG11. The line exhibits multi-lineage differentiation potential and holds promise for studying the role of spatacsin and for the elucidation of SPG11-associated pathogenesis. Resource Table.

Type II nuclear receptors (T2NRs) require heterodimerization with a common partner, the retinoid X receptor (RXR), to bind cognate DNA recognition sites in chromatin. Based on previous biochemical and overexpression studies, binding of T2NRs to chromatin is proposed to be regulated by competition for a limiting pool of the core RXR subunit. However, this mechanism has not yet been tested for endogenous proteins in live cells.

A nuclear-localized cysteine desulfhydrase, LCD1, plays a crucial role in mediating endogenous hydrogen sulfide production in tomatoes. However, the mechanism underlying the nuclear localization of SlLCD1 is not yet fully understood. In this study, it was found that SlLCD1 specifically interacted with nuclear import receptor importin α3 (SlIMPA3).

A major challenge in the stem cell biology field is the ability to produce fully functional cells from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) that are a valuable resource for cell therapy, drug screening, and disease modelling. Here, we developed a novel inducible CRISPR-mediated activation strategy (iCRISPRa) to drive the expression of multiple endogenous transcription factors (TFs) important for in vitro cell fate and differentiation of iPSCs to haematopoietic progenitor cells. This work has identified a key role for IGFBP2 in developing haematopoietic progenitors.

The presence of the Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is considered as a valuable risk factor of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To more deeply comprehend the molecular mechanism and transcriptome of HBV-induced HCC, we utilized tandem mass tagging (TMT)-based quantitative proteomics analysis and whole-transcriptome sequencing to analyze three sets of matched HepG2 hepatoma cells and HBV-positive HepAD38 cells. The differentially expressed (DE) proteins (1596), mRNAs (5263), miRNAs (581), lncRNAs (2672) and circRNAs (222) were subjected to differential expression and enrichment analyses in order to thoroughly assess the gene-regulatory circuits of HBV-induced HCC.
