Recent high-throughput techniques have generated a flood of biological data in all aspects. The transformation and visualization multi-dimensional numerical gene or protein expression single heatmap can provide concise but comprehensive presentation molecular dynamics under different conditions. In this work, we developed an easy-to-use tool named HemI (Heat map Illustrator), which visualize either heatmaps. Additionally, the heatmaps be recolored, rescaled rotated customized manner....
Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) regulate a variety of cellular processes through two distinct mechanisms, including covalent sumoylation and non-covalent SUMO interaction. The complexity regulations has greatly hampered the large-scale identification substrates or interaction partners on proteome-wide level. In this work, we developed new tool called GPS-SUMO for prediction both sites SUMO-interaction motifs (SIMs) in proteins. To obtain an accurate performance, generation group-based...

Abstract N 6 -methyladenosine (m A) modification is an important mechanism in miRNA processing and maturation, but the role of its aberrant regulation human diseases remained unclear. Here, we demonstrate that oncogenic primary microRNA-25 (miR-25) pancreatic duct epithelial cells can be excessively maturated by cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) via enhanced m A mediated NF-κB associated protein (NKAP). This catalyzed overexpressed methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) due to hypomethylation...
Chemotherapy is the preferred treatment for advanced stage gastric cancer (GC) patients and chemotherapy resistance major obstacle to effective therapy. Increasing evidence suggests that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) make important contributions development of drug resistance. However, underlying mechanism remains elusive. In this study, we discovered abundant MSCs in tumor tissues predicted a poor prognosis GC patients. promoted stemness chemoresistance through fatty acid oxidation (FAO)...
As the most important post-translational modification of proteins, phosphorylation plays essential roles in all aspects biological processes. Besides experimental approaches, computational prediction phosphorylated proteins with their kinase-specific sites has also emerged as a popular strategy, for its low-cost, fast-speed and convenience. In this work, we developed predictor GPS 2.1 (Group-based Prediction System), novel but simple approach motif length selection (MLS). By approach,...
Metabolic enzymes have an indispensable role in metabolic reprogramming, and their aberrant expression or activity has been associated with chemosensitivity. Hence, targeting remains attractive approach for treating tumors. However, the influence regulation of cysteine desulfurase (NFS1), a rate-limiting enzyme iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis, colorectal cancer (CRC) remain elusive. Here, using vivo gene-based clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9...
Ferroptosis is a type of cell death related to cancer; however, the characteristics ferroptosis in cancers are still uncertain. Based on data The Cancer Genome Atlas, we found that most regulator genes (FRGs) were differentially expressed tumors, somatic copy number alterations (SCNA) and DNA methylation contributed their aberrant expression. We established potential index (FPI) reveal functional roles noticed FPI was higher tumors than normal tissues associated with subtypes clinical...
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies and major cause cancer-related death in women. Although importance PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) has been increasingly recognized, few studies have explored functional mechanism piRNAs breast development progression.We examined top 20 highly expressed based on analysis TCGA data two patient cohorts to test roles cancer. The effects piRNA-36,712 malignant phenotypes chemosensitivity cells were detected vitro vivo. MS2-RIP reporter gene...
Abstract Tumor cells often reprogram their metabolism for rapid proliferation. The roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in remodeling and the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Through screening, we found that lncRNA Actin Gamma 1 Pseudogene ( AGPG ) is required increased glycolysis activity cell proliferation esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC). Mechanistically, binds to stabilizes 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3). By preventing APC/C-mediated...
Abstract Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO), an N6-methyladenosine (m 6 A) demethylase, participates in tumor progression metastasis many malignancies, but its role colorectal cancer (CRC) is still unclear. Here, we found that FTO levels, not RNA were downregulated CRC tissues. Reduced expression was correlated with a high recurrence rate poor prognosis resectable patients. Moreover, demonstrated hypoxia restrained expression, mainly due to increase ubiquitin-mediated degradation....
Abstract 5-Methylcytosine (m 5 C) is a posttranscriptional RNA modification participating in many critical bioprocesses, but its functions human cancer remain unclear. Here, by detecting the transcriptome-wide m C profiling esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), we showed increased methylation ESCC tumors due to overexpressed methyltransferase NSUN2. Aberrant expression of NSUN2 was positively regulated E2F Transcription Factor 1 (E2F1). High levels predicted poor survival patients....
Sex is known to be an important factor in the incidence, progression, and outcome of cancer. A better understanding underlying mechanisms could help improve cancer prevention treatment. Here, we demonstrated a crucial role antitumor immunity sex differences Consistent with observations human cancers, male mice showed accelerated tumor progression compared females, but these were not observed immunodeficient mice. Androgen signaling suppressed T-cell against males. Mechanistically,...
