• Patient-derived organoids of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma for subtype determination and clinical outcome prediction.
  J. Gastroenterol., Online ahead of print, 2024.

  Although “Classical” and “Basal-like” molecular subtypes have been proposed for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the establishment of patient-derived organoids (PDOs) for PDAC allows for morphological subtype classification, facilitating prediction of clinical outcome.

• The complex etiology of autism spectrum disorder due to missense mutations of CHD8.
  Mol. Phychiatry, Online ahead of print, 2024.

  CHD8 is most frequently mutated gene in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We characterized CHD8 missense mutations and examined the effects of such mutations on the biochemical activities of CHD8, neural differentiation of embryonic stem cells, and mouse behavior.

2023

• Mechanistic dissection of premature translation termination induced by acidic residues-enriched nascent peptide.
  Cell Rep. 42(12): 113569, 2023.

  The detailed mechanism of intrinsic ribosomal destabilization (IRD) in Escherichia coli has been analyzed. Translation of acidic-rich amino acid sequences results in an abnormal conformational change of the 70S ribosome, resulting in non-canonical translation termination.

• RPL3L-containing ribosomes determine translation elongation dynamics required for cardiac function.
  Nat. Commun. 14(1): 2131, 2023.

  RPL3L-containing ribosomes (Myo-ribosomes) efficiently translate genes involved in cardiac contraction, and mice lacking Myo-ribosome showed impaired cardiac contractility.

• The ASC-1 complex promotes translation initiation by scanning ribosomes.
  EMBO J. 42(12): e112869, 2023.

  By developing Sel-TCP-MS, we found that the ASC-1 complex binds to scanning ribosomes as well as disomes, and that the loss of the ASC-1 complex disrupts the dynamics of scanning ribosomes.

2022

• Kastor and Polluks polypeptides encoded by a single gene locus cooperatively regulate VDAC and spermatogenesis.
  Nat. Commun. 13(1): 1071, 2022.

  We identified two novel polypeptides translated from a single lncRNA locus, which we named Kastor and Polluks (derived from Gemini). Both Kastor and Polluks bound to VDAC, and male mice lacking them were infertile.

2021

• A ubiquitin-like protein encoded by the “noncoding” RNA TINCR promotes keratinocyte proliferation and wound healing.
  PLOS Genet. 17(8): e1009686, 2021.

  TINCR was one of the well-known noncoding RNAs in dermatology, but we found that TINCR translates a protein with a ubiquitin-like domain. This protein promoted skin regeneration.

• Combinatorial analysis of translation dynamics reveals eIF2 dependence of translation initiation at near-cognate codons.
  Nucleic Acids Res. 49(13): 7298-7317, 2021.

  TISCA was developed to precisely identify translation initiation sites. TISCA revealed that many proteins are translated from the Non-AUG initiation codons, which is eIF2-dependent, not eIF2A or eIF2D.

2017

• mTORC1 and muscle regeneration are regulated by the LINC00961 encoded SPAR polypeptide.
  Nature 12;541(7636): 228-232, 2017.

  We found that LINC00961, which was thought to be a noncoding RNA, translates a polypeptide, and that the polypeptide regulates amino acid-dependent mTORC1 signaling.
