    Abstract: Increasing data in allostery are requiring analysis of coupling relationships among different allosteric sites on a single protein. Here, based on our previous efforts on reversed allosteric communication theory, we have developed AlloReverse, a web server for multiscale analysis of multiple allosteric regulations. AlloReverse integrates protein dynamics and machine learning to discover allosteric residues, allosteric sites and regulation pathways. Especially, AlloReverse could reveal hierarchical relationships between different pathways and couplings among allosteric sites, offering a whole map of allostery. The web server shows a good performance in re-emerging known allostery. Moreover, we applied AlloReverse to explore global allostery on CDC42 and SIRT3. AlloReverse predicted novel allosteric sites and allosteric residues in both systems, and the functionality of sites was validated experimentally. It also suggests a possible scheme for combined therapy or bivalent drugs on SIRT3. Taken together, AlloReverse is a novel workflow providing a complete regulation map and is believed to aid target identification, drug design and understanding of biological mechanisms. AlloReverse is freely available to all users at https://mdl.shsmu.edu.cn/AlloReverse/ or http://www.allostery.net/AlloReverse/.

    Abstract: Presenilin 1 (PS1) is required for the proteolytic processing of Notch and the β-amyloid precursor protein (APP), molecules that play pivotal roles in cell-fate determination during development and Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis, respectively. In addition, PS1 interacts with β-catenin and promotes its turnover through independent mechanisms. Consistent with this activity, we report here that PS1 is important in controlling epidermal cell proliferation in vivo . PS1 knockout mice that are rescued through neuronal expression of human PS1 transgene develop spontaneous skin cancers. PS1-null keratinocytes exhibit higher cytosolic β-catenin and β-catenin/lymphoid enhancer factor-1/T cell factor (β-catenin/LEF)-mediated signaling. This effect can be reversed by reintroducing wild-type PS1, but not a PS1 mutant active in Notch processing but defective in β-catenin binding. Nuclear β-catenin protein can be detected in tumors. Elevated β-catenin/LEF signaling is correlated with activation of its downstream target cyclin D1 and accelerated entry from G 1 into S phase of the cell cycle. This report demonstrates a function of PS1 in adult tissues, and our analysis suggests that deregulation of β-catenin pathway contributes to the skin tumor phenotype.

    Abstract: Allosteric regulation is one of the most direct and efficient ways to fine-tune protein function; it is induced by the binding of a ligand at an allosteric site that is topographically distinct from an orthosteric site. The Allosteric Database (ASD, available online at http://mdl.shsmu.edu.cn/ASD) was developed ten years ago to provide comprehensive information related to allosteric regulation. In recent years, allosteric regulation has received great attention in biological research, bioengineering, and drug discovery, leading to the emergence of entire allosteric landscapes as allosteromes. To facilitate research from the perspective of the allosterome, in ASD 2019, novel features were curated as follows: (i) 〉 10 000 potential allosteric sites of human proteins were deposited for allosteric drug discovery; (ii) 7 human allosterome maps, including protease and ion channel maps, were built to reveal allosteric evolution within families; (iii) 1312 somatic missense mutations at allosteric sites were collected from patient samples from 33 cancer types and (iv) 1493 pharmacophores extracted from allosteric sites were provided for modulator screening. Over the past ten years, the ASD has become a central resource for studying allosteric regulation and will play more important roles in both target identification and allosteric drug discovery in the future.

    Abstract: Infertility is a complex multifactorial disease that affects up to 10% of couples across the world. However, many mechanisms of infertility remain unclear due to the lack of studies based on systematic knowledge, leading to ineffective treatment and/or transmission of genetic defects to offspring. Here, we developed an infertility disease database to provide a comprehensive resource featuring various factors involved in infertility. Features in the current IDDB version were manually curated as follows: (i) a total of 307 infertility-associated genes in human and 1348 genes associated with reproductive disorder in 9 model organisms; (ii) a total of 202 chromosomal abnormalities leading to human infertility, including aneuploidies and structural variants; and (iii) a total of 2078 pathogenic variants from infertility patients’ samples across 60 different diseases causing infertility. Additionally, the characteristics of clinically diagnosed infertility patients (i.e. causative variants, laboratory indexes and clinical manifestations) were collected. To the best of our knowledge, the IDDB is the first infertility database serving as a systematic resource for biologists to decipher infertility mechanisms and for clinicians to achieve better diagnosis/treatment of patients from disease phenotype to genetic factors. The IDDB is freely available at http://mdl.shsmu.edu.cn/IDDB/.

    Abstract: Driver mutations can contribute to the initial processes of cancer, and their identification is crucial for understanding tumorigenesis as well as for molecular drug discovery and development. Allostery regulates protein function away from the functional regions at an allosteric site. In addition to the known effects of mutations around functional sites, mutations at allosteric sites have been associated with protein structure, dynamics, and energy communication. As a result, identifying driver mutations at allosteric sites will be beneficial for deciphering the mechanisms of cancer and developing allosteric drugs. In this study, we provided a platform called DeepAlloDriver to predict driver mutations using a deep learning method that exhibited  & gt;93% accuracy and precision. Using this server, we found that a missense mutation in RRAS2 (Gln72 to Leu) might serve as an allosteric driver of tumorigenesis, revealing the mechanism of the mutation in knock-in mice and cancer patients. Overall, DeepAlloDriver would facilitate the elucidation of the mechanisms underlying cancer progression and help prioritize cancer therapeutic targets. The web server is freely available at: https://mdl.shsmu.edu.cn/DeepAlloDriver.

    Abstract: Super-enhancers (SEs) are cell-specific DNA cis-regulatory elements that can supervise the transcriptional regulation processes of downstream genes. SEdb 2.0 (http://www.licpathway.net/sedb) aims to provide a comprehensive SE resource and annotate their potential roles in gene transcriptions. Compared with SEdb 1.0, we have made the following improvements: (i) Newly added the mouse SEs and expanded the scale of human SEs. SEdb 2.0 contained 1 167 518 SEs from 1739 human H3K27ac chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) samples and 550 226 SEs from 931 mouse H3K27ac ChIP-seq samples, which was five times that of SEdb 1.0. (ii) Newly added transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) in SEs identified by TF motifs and TF ChIP-seq data. (iii) Added comprehensive (epi)genetic annotations of SEs, including chromatin accessibility regions, methylation sites, chromatin interaction regions and topologically associating domains (TADs). (iv) Newly embedded and updated search and analysis tools, including ‘Search SE by TF-based’, ‘Differential-Overlapping-SE analysis’ and ‘SE-based TF–Gene analysis’. (v) Newly provided quality control (QC) metrics for ChIP-seq processing. In summary, SEdb 2.0 is a comprehensive update of SEdb 1.0, which curates more SEs and annotation information than SEdb 1.0. SEdb 2.0 provides a friendly platform for researchers to more comprehensively clarify the important role of SEs in the biological process.

    Abstract: This study reports a general methodology for making stable high-performance photosensitive field effect transistors (FET) from self-assembled columns of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) as point contacts. In particular, the molecules used in this work are liquid crystalline materials of tetra(dodecyloxy)hexabenzocoronenes (HBCs) that are able to self-organize into columnar nanostructures with a diameter similar to that of SWNTs and then form nanoscale columnar transistors. To rule out potential artifacts, 2 different structural approaches were used to construct devices. One approach is to coat thin films of HBCs onto the devices with the SWNT–metal junctions protected by hydrogensilsesquioxane resin (HSQ), and the other is to place a droplet of HBC exactly on the nanogaps of SWNT electrodes. Both types of devices showed typical FET behaviors, indicating that SWNT–molecule–SWNT nanojunctions are responsible for the electrical characteristics of the devices. After thermally annealing the devices, HBC molecules assembled into columnar structures and formed more efficacious transistors with increased current modulation and higher gate efficiency. More interestingly, when the devices were exposed to visible light, photocurrents with an on/off ratio of 〉 3 orders of magnitude were observed. This study demonstrates that stimuli-responsive nanoscale transistors have the potential applications in ultrasensitive devices for environmental sensing and solar energy harvesting.

    Abstract: Gut microbiota plays a significant role in maintaining host health, and conversely, disorders potentially lead to dysbiosis, an imbalance in the composition of the gut microbial community. Intervention approaches, such as medications, diets, and several others, also alter the gut microbiota in either a beneficial or harmful direction. In 2020, the gutMDisorder was developed to facilitate researchers in the investigation of dysbiosis of gut microbes as occurs in various disorders as well as with therapeutic interventions. The database has been updated this year, following revision of previous publications and newly published reports to manually integrate confirmed associations under multitudinous conditions. Additionally, the microbial contents of downloaded gut microbial raw sequencing data were annotated, the metadata of the corresponding hosts were manually curated, and the interactive charts were developed to enhance visualization. The improvements have assembled into gutMDisorder v2.0, a more advanced search engine and an upgraded web interface, which can be freely accessed via http://bio-annotation.cn/gutMDisorder/.
