Significance Exquisite lipid-binding specificity for phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) is hardwired into the structure of KRAS C-terminal plasma membrane (PM) anchor. This renders KRAS–PM localization and hence biological function potentially vulnerable to perturbations PM PtdSer content. Here, we show that all components recently described lipid transport machinery maintain content are indeed required support oncogenic function. In this context, demonstrate enzyme, PI4KIIIα, in particular has...
Conventional genetically engineered mouse models (GEMM) are time-consuming, laborious, and offer limited spatiotemporal control. Here, we describe the development of a streamlined platform for in vivo gene activation using CRISPR (CRISPRa) technology. Unlike conventional GEMMs, this model system allows flexible, sustained, timed one or more target genes single pooled lentiviral guides. Myc Yap1 were used as oncogenes to demonstrate primary pancreatic organoid cultures vitro enhanced...
Abstract Efforts to understand etiology of glioma led researchers investigate associated genetic factors. Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) conducted that end, uncovered an association various single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) among hallmark oncogenes and tumor suppressors as risk variants in incidence. Here, we perform vitro modeling four alleles/SNPs((rs723527 (EGFR), rs55705857 (MYC), rs7572263 (IDH1), rs78378222 (TP53)) mapped non-coding regulatory regions the genome, assess...
Abstract Deficiency of ATRX (Alpha Thalassemia/Mental Retardation Syndrome X-linked), a core member SWI/SNF family chromatin regulator is altered in diffuse gliomas and coexist with IDH1/2 mutations adults histone G34R/V alterations pediatric populations.

Abstract Introduction: Pancreatic cancer is characterized by early metastasis and resistance to chemotherapy. To elucidate the transcriptional reprogramming drug that emerges during metastatic cascade, we set out characterize transcriptomic profiles response of matched sets cell organoids derived from multiple sites (primary tumor, lesion, circulating tumor cells) in tumor-bearing PKCY (p53L/wt, KrasLSL-G12D/wt, ptf1acre/wt, Rosa26LSL-YFP/LSL-YFP) mice. Methods: establish primary organoids,...
