Veitia Lab – The forkhead DNA-binding domain binds specific G2-rich RNA sequences

The Veitia Lab recently published a new article in Nucleic Acids Research : The forkhead DNA-binding domain binds specific G2-rich RNA sequences   Abstract: Transcription factors contain a DNA-binding domain ensuring specific recognition of DNA target sequences. The family of forkhead (FOX) transcription factors is composed of dozens of paralogs in mammals. The forkhead domain (FHD) is a…

Ladoux / Mège Lab – A mechanosensitive caveolae-invadosome interplay drives matrix remodelling for cancer cell invasion

Le  Ladoux / Mège recently contributed to the publication of a new article in Nature Cell biology : A mechanosensitive caveolae–invadosome interplay drives matrix remodelling for cancer cell invasion Abstract: Invadosomes and caveolae are mechanosensitive structures that are implicated in metastasis. Here, we describe a unique juxtaposition of caveola clusters and matrix degradative invadosomes at contact…
