To be or not to be in the nucleolus

M Carmo-Fonseca, L Mendes-Soares, I Campos�- Nature cell biology, 2000 - nature.com
Compartmentalization has long been known to have a key role in regulation of cellular
processes. By keeping enzymes and regulatory complexes in compartments where the�…

Molecular mechanisms involved in cisplatin cytotoxicity

P Jordan, M Carmo-Fonseca*�- Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences�…, 2000 - Springer
cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) or cisplatin is a DNA-damaging agent that is widely used
in cancer chemotherapy. Cisplatin cross-links to DNA, forming intra-and interstrand adducts�…

Deep intronic mutations and human disease

R Vaz-Drago, N Cust�dio, M Carmo-Fonseca�- Human genetics, 2017 - Springer

Transcription-dependent colocalization of the U1, U2, U4/U6, and U5 snRNPs in coiled bodies

M Carmo-Fonseca, R Pepperkok, MT Carvalho…�- The Journal of cell�…, 1992 - rupress.org
We have recently shown that discrete foci are present in the nuclei of mammalian cells in
which each of the U1, U2, U4/U6, and U5 snRNPs involved in pre-mRNA splicing, and the�…

[HTML][HTML] Mammalian NET-seq reveals genome-wide nascent transcription coupled to RNA processing

T Nojima, T Gomes, ARF Grosso, H Kimura, MJ Dye…�- Cell, 2015 - cell.com
Transcription is a highly dynamic process. Consequently, we have developed native
elongating transcript sequencing technology for mammalian chromatin (mNET-seq), which�…

Splicing enhances recruitment of methyltransferase HYPB/Setd2 and methylation of histone H3 Lys36

SF De Almeida, AR Grosso, F Koch, R Fenouil…�- Nature structural &�…, 2011 - nature.com
Several lines of recent evidence support a role for chromatin in splicing regulation. Here, we
show that splicing can also contribute to histone modification, which implies bidirectional�…

Dynamic association of RNA-editing enzymes with the nucleolus

JMP Desterro, LP Keegan, M Lafarga…�- Journal of cell�…, 2003 - journals.biologists.com
ADAR1 and ADAR2 are editing enzymes that deaminate adenosine to inosine in long
double stranded RNA duplexes and specific pre-mRNA transcripts. Here, we show that full�…

Retinoic acid regulates aberrant nuclear localization of PML-RARα in acute promyelocytic leukemia cells

K Weis, S Rambaud, C Lavau, J Jansen, T Carvalho…�- Cell, 1994 - cell.com
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific t (l5; 17) translocation that
fuses the retinoic acid receptor a (RAFta) to a novel gene product, PML. The involvement of�…

The C-terminal domain of TAP interacts with the nuclear pore complex and promotes export of specific CTE-bearing RNA substrates

A Bachi, IC BRAUN, JP RODRIGUES, N PANT�…�- Rna, 2000 - cambridge.org
Messenger RNAs are exported from the nucleus as large ribonucleoprotein complexes
(mRNPs). To date, proteins implicated in this process include TAP/Mex67p and RAE1/Gle2p�…

The spinal muscular atrophy disease gene product, SMN: A link between snRNP biogenesis and the Cajal (coiled) body
