    Description: A chloroplast RNA polymerase sigma factor is encoded by a nuclear gene, sigA, in the red alga Cyanidium caldarium RK-1. The encoded protein functions as an RNA polymerase sigma factor in vitro and it is localized to the chloroplast in vivo. SigA shows high sequence similarity to the sigma factors of cyanobacteria, which is indicative of the ancestral endosymbiotic event and subsequent transfer of the sigA gene to the nuclear genome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanaka, K -- Oikawa, K -- Ohta, N -- Kuroiwa, H -- Kuroiwa, T -- Takahashi, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 28;272(5270):1932-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences, University of Tokyo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8658165" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Proteasomes are the proteolytic complex responsible for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted antigen presentation. Interferon gamma treatment increases expression MHC-encoded LMP2 and LMP7 subunits of the proteasome and decreases expression of two proteasome subunits, named X and Y, which alters the proteolytic specificity of proteasomes. Molecular cloning of complementary DNAs encoding X and Y showed that their proteins are proteasomal subunits with high amino acid similarity to LMP7 and LMP2, respectively. Thus, interferon gamma may induce subunit replacements of X and Y by LMP7 and LMP2, respectively, producing proteasomes perhaps more appropriate for the immunological processing of endogenous antigens.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Akiyama, K -- Yokota, K -- Kagawa, S -- Shimbara, N -- Tamura, T -- Akioka, H -- Nothwang, H G -- Noda, C -- Tanaka, K -- Ichihara, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 26;265(5176):1231-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Urology, School of Medicine, University of Tokushima, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066462" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genes for the principal sigma factor (rpoD genes) of various eubacteria were identified with a synthetic oligonucleotide probe corresponding to a conserved sequence in rpoD gene products of Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. Multiple rpoD homologs were found in the strains of Micrococcus, Pseudomonas, and Streptomyces, whereas single genes were detected in E. coli, B. subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus. The four rpoD homologs of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) were cloned and sequenced. A homologous portion with 13 amino acids was found in the rpoD genes of S. coelicolor A3(2), E. coli, and B. subtilis and was named the "rpoD box."〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanaka, K -- Shiina, T -- Takahashi, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 18;242(4881):1040-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Applied Microbiology, University of Tokyo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3194753" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Proteasomes are responsible for generating peptides presented by the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules of the immune system. Here, we report the identification of a previously unrecognized catalytic subunit called beta5t. beta5t is expressed exclusively in cortical thymic epithelial cells, which are responsible for the positive selection of developing thymocytes. Although the chymotrypsin-like activity of proteasomes is considered to be important for the production of peptides with high affinities for MHC class I clefts, incorporation of beta5t into proteasomes in place of beta5 or beta5i selectively reduces this activity. We also found that beta5t-deficient mice displayed defective development of CD8(+) T cells in the thymus. Our results suggest a key role for beta5t in generating the MHC class I-restricted CD8(+) T cell repertoire during thymic selection.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Murata, Shigeo -- Sasaki, Katsuhiro -- Kishimoto, Toshihiko -- Niwa, Shin-Ichiro -- Hayashi, Hidemi -- Takahama, Yousuke -- Tanaka, Keiji -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jun 1;316(5829):1349-53.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Frontier Science, Core Technology and Research Center, Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8613, Japan. smurata@rinshoken.or.jp〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17540904" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
