Integrated analysis of hub genes and intrinsically disordered regions in triple-negative breast cancer. (PubMed, J Genet Eng Biotechnol)

Breast cancer patients with TTK, TOP2A, CENPF, and CCNA2 upregulation had a poor prognosis; TTK and CCNA2 were partially disordered, whereas TOP2A and CENPF were primarily disordered, according to IDR analysis. According to our study, TOP2A and CENPF may be useful therapeutic targets for disruption of the TNBC PPI network.

Excessive MYC-topoisome activity triggers acute DNA damage, MYC degradation, and replacement by a p53-topoisome. (PubMed, Mol Cell)

Because p53, unlike MYC, upregulates the DNA-damage response (DDR) and activates tyrosyl-DNA-phosphodiesterase (TDP) 1 and TDP2, it suppresses further topoisome-mediated damage. The physical coupling and activation of TOP1 and TOP2 by p53 creates a tool that supports p53-target expression while braking MYC-driven proliferation in mammalian cells.
