    Ternatin and improved synthetic variants kill cancer cells by targeting the elongation factor-1A ternary complex

    Jordan D Carelli, Steven G Sethofer ... Jack Taunton
    An ancient complex comprising the eukaryotic elongation factor-1A and aminoacylated tRNA is shown to be the target of a cyclic heptapeptide and two unrelated natural products with potent anticancer activity.

    AFF4 binding to Tat-P-TEFb indirectly stimulates TAR recognition of super elongation complexes at the HIV promoter

    Ursula Schulze-Gahmen, Huasong Lu ... Tom Alber
    AFF4 increases the combined selectivity of HIV Tat and TAR for super elongation complexes 330-fold over P-TEFb alone.

    The translation elongation factor eEF1A1 couples transcription to translation during heat shock response

    Maria Vera, Bibhusita Pani ... Evgeny Nudler
    Eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1A1 controls the process of heat shock response, from transcriptional activation of the HSP70 gene, to HSP70 mRNA stabilization, nuclear export, and translation.

    The primary σ factor in Escherichia coli can access the transcription elongation complex from solution in vivo

    Seth R Goldman, Nikhil U Nair ... Ann Hochschild
    The sigma subunit of bacterial RNA polymerase, classically known as an initiation factor, can also operate as an elongation factor with effects that vary with growth phase.

    Gene-specific mechanisms direct glucocorticoid-receptor-driven repression of inflammatory response genes in macrophages

    Maria A Sacta, Bowranigan Tharmalingam ... Inez Rogatsky
    A comprehensive analysis of the glucocorticoid-sensitive pro-inflammatory genes in macrophages reveals fundamental differences between the temporal events and components of transcriptional machinery that the glucocorticoid receptor targets to repress their transcription.

    Control of telomere length in yeast by SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader

    Pragyan Singh, Inbal Gazy, Martin Kupiec
    SUMOylated PCNA and the Elg1 PCNA unloader interact with the CST complex to coordinate DNA replication and telomere length maintenance.

    A coupled mechano-biochemical model for cell polarity guided anisotropic root growth

    Marco Marconi, Marcal Gallemi ... Krzysztof Wabnik
    The spatial-temporal computer model of plant root meristem combines biomechanics and biochemical scales to reveal design principles underlying cell polarity and anisotropic growth during root development.

    A dynamic RNA loop in an IRES affects multiple steps of elongation factor-mediated translation initiation

    Marisa D Ruehle, Haibo Zhang ... Jeffrey S Kieft
    During initiation factor-independent RNA structure-driven translation initiation, a flexible RNA element drives the movement of a viral IRES through the ribosome's tRNA binding sites and promotes tRNA binding.

    Ssd1 and Gcn2 suppress global translation efficiency in replicatively aged yeast while their activation extends lifespan

    Zheng Hu, Bo Xia ... Jessica K Tyler
    Activation of the stress response pathway in young cells extends replicative lifespan, not by reducing global protein synthesis per se, but by Gcn4-mediated autophagy induction.

    The AFF4 scaffold binds human P-TEFb adjacent to HIV Tat

    Ursula Schulze-Gahmen, Heather Upton ... Tom Alber
    Structure-function analysis of the super elongation complex formed when HIV replicates inside cells reveals that the HIV-1 Tat protein binds to a cleft between P-TEFb, an enzyme that is involved in normal transcription, and AFF4, a protein that is used to build the super elongation complex
