Neutrophil elastase cleaves PML-RARalpha and is important for the development of acute promyelocytic leukemia in mice
Article Abstract:
Research demonstrates that neutrophil elastase mediates the fusion protein PML-RARalpha initiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Results show that the neutrophil elastase is produced in promyelocytes. Data indicate that hematopoietic proteases may have a role in leukemia development.

RNAi: RISC gets loaded
Article Abstract:
Simplified views of siRNA-programmed RISC activation are explored. A heterotrimeric complex from humans is defined that appears to execute dsRNA loading, strand selection, and target mRNA cleavage activities.
