Article Abstract
Mono-ubiquitination of histone H2B (H2B-Ub1) is a conserved modification that plays central role in regulating numerous biological processes including the DNA damage response, gene transcription, and DNA replication. Previous studies have revealed that H2B-Ub1 promotes recovery from replication stress by mediating Rad53 phosphorylation (Rad53-P), and activation of the intra-S replication checkpoint, in order to limit fork progression, and associated DNA damage. Since such mono-ubiquitination is a reversible process, we examined the role of H2B-Ub1 deubiquitination during replication stress. Using an experimental system in yeast which mimics H2B-Ub1 accumulation, we show that cells become sensitive to the replication stress induced by HU. This stress response was accompanied by Rad53-P accumulation, and delayed recovery from intra-S checkpoint arrest. Furthermore, we show that similar effects were recapitulated by the accumulation of endogenous H2B-Ub1, induced by the co-inactivation of the deubiquitinating enzyme, Ubp10, and Spt16, a FACT histone chaperone family member. While it has been well established that H2B mono-ubiquitination plays an essential role in recovering from replication stress, our data reveal that H2B-Ub1 deubiquitination is also essential for this process.

Tumor-phrenic nerve spatial relationship and intraoperative traction-induced injury during mediastinal tumor resection: implications for real-time protective strategies.

Background: Phrenic nerve injury during mediastinal tumor resection can lead to significant postoperative diaphragmatic dysfunction. Current intraoperative protection techniques are imprecise and lack real-time feedback. We aimed to develop and validate a quantifiable, multimodal neuroprotective strategy.

Unrelated pathogens, including viruses and bacteria, use a common short linear motif (SLiM) to interact with cellular kinases of the RSK (p90 S6 ribosomal kinase) family. Such a "DDVF" (D/E-D/E-V-F) SLiM occurs in the leader (L) protein encoded by picornaviruses of the genus , including Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV), Boone cardiovirus (BCV), and Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV). The L-RSK complex is targeted to the nuclear pore, where RSK triggers FG-nucleoporins hyperphosphorylation, thereby causing nucleocytoplasmic trafficking disruption.

Increasing evidence indicates that the loss of soil microbial α-diversity triggered by environmental stress negatively impacts microbial functions; however, the effects of microbial α-diversity on community functions under environmental stress are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the changes in bacterial and fungal α- diversity along gradients of five natural stressors (temperature, precipitation, plant diversity, soil organic C and pH) across 45 grasslands in China and evaluated their connection with microbial functional traits. By quantifying the five environmental stresses into an integrated stress index, we found that the bacterial and fungal α-diversity declined under high environmental stress across three soil layers (0-20 cm, 20-40 cm and 40-60 cm).

The bacterial DNA damage (SOS) response promotes DNA repair, DNA damage tolerance, and survival in the setting of genotoxic stress, including stress induced by antibiotics. In , translesion DNA synthesis can be fulfilled by Y-family DNA polymerases, including DNA polymerase IV (DinB). DinB features a more open active site and lacks proofreading ability, promoting error-prone replication.

Human factors are central to aviation safety, with pilot cognitive states such as workload, stress, and situation awareness playing important roles in flight performance and safety. Although flight simulators are widely used for training and scientific research, they often lack the ecological validity needed to replicate pilot cognitive states from real flights. To address these limitations, a new in-flight data collection methodology for general aviation using a Cessna 172 aircraft, which is one of the most widely used aircraft for pilot training, is presented.
