[HTML][HTML] Cytoscape automation: empowering workflow-based network analysis

D Otasek, JH Morris, J Bouças, AR Pico, B Demchak - Genome biology, 2019 - Springer
Cytoscape is one of the most successful network biology analysis and visualization tools,
but because of its interactive nature, its role in creating reproducible, scalable, and novel …

[PDF][PDF] Heterochromatin-driven nuclear softening protects the genome against mechanical stress-induced damage

…, LC Biggs, DB Whitefield, F Metge, J Boucas… - Cell, 2020 - cell.com
Tissue homeostasis requires maintenance of functional integrity under stress. A central
source of stress is mechanical force that acts on cells, their nuclei, and chromatin, but how the …

Heparan sulfate proteoglycan binding properties of adeno-associated virus retargeting mutants and consequences for their in vivo tropism

…, D Goldnau, K White, J Endell, J Boucas… - Journal of …, 2006 - Am Soc Microbiol
Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV-2) targeting vectors have been generated by insertion
of ligand peptides into the viral capsid at amino acid position 587. This procedure ablates …

Delayed development of chronic lymphocytic leukemia in the absence of macrophage migration inhibitory factor

N Reinart, PH Nguyen, J Boucas… - Blood, The Journal …, 2013 - ashpublications.org
Survival of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells depends on stimuli provided by a

Engineering adeno‐associated virus serotype 2‐based targeting vectors using a new insertion site‐position 453‐and single point mutations

J Boucas, K Lux, A Huber… - The Journal of Gene …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Background Genetic modification of capsid proteins by peptide insertion has created the
possibility of using adeno‐associated viral (AAV) vectors for receptor specific gene transfer (…

[HTML][HTML] Label-free protein-RNA interactome analysis identifies Khsrp signaling downstream of the p38/Mk2 kinase complex as a critical modulator of cell cycle …

J Boucas, C Fritz, A Schmitt, A Riabinska, L Thelen… - PLoS …, 2015 - journals.plos.org

[HTML][HTML] ER-associated RNA silencing promotes ER quality control

…, J Le Pen, NH Gehring, EA Miska, J Bouças… - Nature Cell …, 2022 - nature.com
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) coordinates mRNA translation and processing of secreted
and endomembrane proteins. ER-associated degradation (ERAD) prevents the …

[HTML][HTML] Posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression—adding another layer of complexity to the DNA damage response

J Boucas, A Riabinska, M Jokic, GS Herter-Sprie… - Frontiers in …, 2012 - frontiersin.org
In response to DNA damage, cells activate a complex, kinase-based signaling network to
arrest the cell cycle and allow time for DNA repair, or, if the extend of damage is beyond repair …

Integration of ENCODE RNAseq and eCLIP data sets

J Boucas - mRNA Decay: Methods and Protocols, 2018 - Springer
During the last decade, the study of mRNA decay has largely benefited from an increasing
number of high-throughput assays that emerged from developments in next generation …

Pharmacologic interception in T-cell leukemia 1A associated pathways as a treatment rationale for chronic lymphocytic leukemia

W Popal, J Boucas, AA Peer-Zada… - Leukemia & …, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
Recent therapeutic advances in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are reflected by high
response rates in most subsets of patients. However, refractory disease remains a problem, …
