    Description: Analogous to learning and memory storage, long-term potentiation (LTP) is divided into induction and maintenance phases. Testing the hypothesis that the mechanism of LTP maintenance stores information requires reversing this mechanism in vivo and finding out whether long-term stored information is lost. This was not previously possible. Recently however, persistent phosphorylation by the atypical protein kinase C isoform, protein kinase Mzeta (PKMz), has been found to maintain late LTP in hippocampal slices. Here we show that a cell-permeable PKMz inhibitor, injected in the rat hippocampus, both reverses LTP maintenance in vivo and produces persistent loss of 1-day-old spatial information. Thus, the mechanism maintaining LTP sustains spatial memory.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pastalkova, Eva -- Serrano, Peter -- Pinkhasova, Deana -- Wallace, Emma -- Fenton, Andre Antonio -- Sacktor, Todd Charlton -- MH57068/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH53576/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Aug 25;313(5790):1141-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Departments of Physiology, Pharmacology, and Neurology, Robert F.

    Description: Most mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nucleus and are translated on free cytoplasmic ribosomes as larger precursors containing amino-terminal "leader" sequences, which are removed after the precursors are taken up by mitochondria. We have deduced the complete primary structure of the precursor of a human mitochondrial matrix enzyme, ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC), from the nucleotide sequence of cloned complementary DNA. The amino-terminal leader peptide of OTC is 32 amino acids in length and contains four arginines but no acidic residues. Cleavage of the leader peptide from the "mature" protein occurs between glutamine and asparagine residues. The sequence of mature human OTC resembles that of the subunits of both OTC and aspartate transcarbamylase from Escherichia coli. The biological activity of the cloned OTC complementary DNA was tested by joining it with SV40 (an animal virus) regulatory elements and transfecting cultured HeLa cells, which do not normally express OTC. Both the precursor and mature forms of the OTC subunit were identified; in stable transformants, enzymatic activity was also detected.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Horwich, A L -- Fenton, W A -- Williams, K R -- Kalousek, F -- Kraus, J P -- Doolittle, R F -- Konigsberg, W -- Rosenberg, L E -- AM 09527/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- AM 12579/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- GM 31539/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jun 8;224(4653):1068-74.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6372096" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
