| Abstract | BCL6 is a transcriptional repressor protein that is expressed in a developmentally regulated fashion during B-cell maturation. Specifically, BCL6 is required for formation of germinal centers in response to T-cell dependent antigen activation. Germinal center B-cells feature the ability to tolerate rapid proliferation and simultaneous genetic recombination. Genetic lesions that cause constitutive expression of BCL6 are commonly associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL). Recent studies show that BCL6 contributes to the germinal center phenotype by directly repressing genes involved in sensing or responding to DNA damage including ATR, TP53 and CDKN1A. The CHEK1 protein is activated through phosphorylation by the ATR kinase domain in response to DNA damage. Activated CHEK1 can phosphorylate and modulate the activity a number of proteins including p53, providing a link between ATR sensing of DNA damage and p53 checkpoint activity. Herein we show that BCL6 can directly bind to a DNA consensus element in the CHEK1 promoter and repress its expression in normal and malignant B-cells. DLBCL cells can be killed by a specific BCL6 peptide inhibitor (BPI) that interferes with corepressor binding to the BCL6 BTB domain. BPI could reactivate CHEK1 in DLBCL cells, suggesting that its induction might contribute to BPI anti-lymphoma effects. Therefore, BCL6 can suppress multiple genes involved in a common pathway sensing, transducing and responding to genotoxic stress. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
