Description
The restoration of catalytic activity to mutant enzymes by small molecules is well-established for in vitro systems. Here we show that the protein tyrosine kinase Src R388A mutant can be rescued in live cells using the small molecule imidazole. Cellular rescue of a v-Src homolog was rapid and reversible and conferred predicted oncogenic properties. Using chemical rescue in combination with mass spectrometry, six known Src kinase substrates were confirmed, and several new protein targets identified. Chemical rescue data suggests that c-Src is active under basal conditions. Rescue of R388A c-Src also allowed contributions of Src to the MAP kinase pathway to be clarified. This chemical rescue approach is likely to be of broad utility in cell signaling.

Description
In mammals body temperature fluctuates diurnally around a mean value of 36-37°C. Despite the small differences between minimal and maximal values, body temperature rhythms can drive robust cycles in gene expression in cultured cells and, likely, in, animals. Here we studied the mechanisms responsible for the temperature-dependent expression of Cold- Inducible RNA-Binding Protein (CIRBP). In NIH3T3 fibroblasts exposed to simulated mouse body temperature cycles Cirbp mRNA oscillates about 3-fold in abundance, as it does in mouse liver. This daily mRNA accumulation cycle is directly controlled by temperature oscillations and does not depend on the cells’ circadian clocks. Here, we show that the temperature-dependent accumulation of Cirbp mRNA is controlled primarily by the regulation of splicing efficiency, defined as the fraction of Cirbp pre-mRNA processed into mature mRNA. As revealed by genome-wide “approach-to-steady-kinetics”, this posttranscriptional mechanism is wide-spread in the temperature-dependent control of gene expression. Overall design: Cultured NIH3T3 cells seeded and kept at 37C degree for 4 hours before being switched to 33C and 38C. After 16 hours of incubation the temperature was shifted to 38C and 33C, respectively. Sample were then taken at 0, 1, 3, 6 and 9 hour after the temperature shift. Paired-end, strand-specific, total RNA-seq was performed over the samples at the respective time points using the Illumina HiSeq2500 platform.

Description
The leading cause of death in human patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and malignant cancer in general is the dissemination of the primary tumor to secondary sites. The mechanisms by which RCC colonize the lung microenvironment during metastasis remain largely unknown. To investigate the mechanisms of lung colonization by tumor cells, we grafted human RCC cells with different lung metastatic activities in mice. Gene expression profiling of the mouse lung stromal compartment revealed a gene signature enriched for neutrophil-specific functions, induced preferentially by poorly metastatic cells. Analysis of the gene expression patterns in tumor cells and clinical specimens showed an inverse correlation between metastatic activity and the levels of a number of chemokines, including CXL5 ad IL8. Enforced depletion of CXCL5 and IL8 in tumor cells allowed us to establish a functional link between lung neutrophil infiltration, the secretion of chemokines by cancer cells and metastatic activity. Finally, we showed that human neutrophils displayed a higher cytotoxic activity toward poorly metastatic cells relative to highly metastatic cells. Together, these results support a model in which neutrophils recruited to the lung by tumor-secreted chemokines build an antimetastatic barrier and loss of those neutrophil chemokines in tumor cells is a critical rate-limiting step during lung metastatic seeding.
