Multi-Omics Characterization of Uveal Melanoma Reveals New Insights

Uveal melanoma (UM), a rare cancer originating from uveal tract melanocytes, exhibits four distinct molecular subsets. We conducted comprehensive multi-omics analysis comparing aggressive UM patient-derived xenograft models with normal melanocytes. Our findings highlight genomic instability as a UM hallmark. A recurrent BAP1 promoter deletion, linked to metastasis risk, was identified. Hi-C analysis unveiled chromatin topology […]

TARS-CoV: The Next Generation of Coronaviruses

In 2018, the World Health Organization introduced “Disease X” as a potential global health threat caused by an unknown pathogen. Little did we know that the world would be grappling with the novel coronavirus, initially known as 2019-nCoV, just a year later. Researchers now propose renaming it “Transmissible Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (TARS-CoV)” due to […]

Scientists Discover New Protein That Plays a Crucial Role in Histidine Methylation

Histidine methylation, a new post-translational modification, is not well understood. A recent study identified γ-enolase, a glycolytic enzyme subunit, as a new substrate for histidine methylation. The study found that methylation of the 190th histidine residue of γ-enolase is important for subunit dimerization and enolase activity. None of the three previously identified mammalian histidine methyltransferases […]
