    Notes: Galactosyl receptor, a cell surface Ca2+-dependent lectin with binding affinity for galactose, was evaluated by immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, Northern blotting, and immunocytochemistry in human liver, testis, and sperm. Polyclonal antisera raised against the minor asialoglycoprotein receptor variant of rat hepatocytes (designated rat hepatic lectin-2/3, RHL-2/3), and its human liver-equivalent (designated H2), recognize native galactosyl receptor in the testis and sperm in immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunocytochemical experiments. An equivalent to the major hepatocyte asialoglycoprotein receptor variant (rat RHL-1 and human H1) was not detected. Human testis and sperm galactosyl receptor was resolved, after immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting, as a single protein component of molecular mass 50 kD. The single protein component in human testis and sperm contrasted with the doublet nature of rat testis and sperm galactosyl receptor, consisting of two components of molecular masses of 54 and 49 kD. Northern blotting experiments using radiolabeled H1 and H2 cDNA probes confirmed the presence of H2 mRNA and the lack of H1 mRNA in the human testis. Immunocytochemical studies detected specific antigenic sites on the entire surfaces of spermatogenic cells. However, immunoreactivity in epididymal and ejaculated sperm was confined to head surfaces overlying the acrosome. Results from these studies, and from previous studies in the rat, suggest that the testis/sperm galactosyl receptor is a C-type Ca2+-dependent lectin with possible roles in cell-cell interaction during spermatogenesis and sperm-zona pellucida binding at fertilization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We have begun a search for heritable variation in X-chromosome inactivation pattern in normal females to determine whether there is a genetic effect on the imprinting of X-chromosome inactivation in humans. We have performed a quantitative analysis of X-chromosome inactivation in lymphocytes from mothers in normal, three-generation families. Eight mothers and 12 grandmothers exhibited evidence of highly skewed patterns of X-chromosome inactivation. We observed that the male offspring of females with skewed X-inactivation patterns were three times more likely to inherit alleles at loci that were located on the inactive X chromosome (Xi) than the active X chromosome (Xa). The region of the X chromosome for which this phenomenon was observed extends from XP11 to -Xq22. We have also examined X-chromosome inactivation patterns in 21 unaffected mothers of male bilateral sporadic retinoblastoma patients. Six of these mothers had skewed patterns of X-chromosome inactivation. In contrast to the tendency for male offspring of skewed mothers from nondisease families to inherit alleles from the inactive X chromosome, five of the six affected males inherited the androgen receptor alleles from the active X chromosome of their mother. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We have investigated the promoter element(s) required by the cell cycle regulated FO108 human histone H4 gene for control of gene expression during adipocyte proliferation and differentiation. Stable 3T3L1 cell lines were established that express fusion genes in which the histone H4 promoter is joined to chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) as a reporter gene. Expression of the H4CAT fusion genes was monitored in proliferating and confluent 3T3L1 preadipocytes and in differentiating 3T3L1 adipocytes. The results indicate that the H4 cell cycle element (CCE), which mediates S phase-specific stimulation of H4 gene transcription, is not required for transcriptional regulation during differentiation. Instead, a minimal H4 promoter (nucleotides -46 to -11) is sufficient to mediate the complex transcriptional response of H4 gene expression observed during the process of adipocyte differentiation of 3T3L1 cells. In addition, the data suggest that down-regulation of histone gene expression during cellular differentiation may be mediated by passive inactivation of the promoter due to loss of positive regulatory factor(s). © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A prototroph revertant (Rev9) selected from an ATCase- mutant of the URA2 gene containing three nonsense mutations was shown to contain two ATCase coding sequences. We cloned both ATCase coding areas to show that the duplicated locus (dl9) was the only functional one. Its size corresponded roughly to the second half of the URA2 wild-type gene. Sequence analysis of the 5′ end of dl9 indicated that this duplicated sequence was inserted within the intergenic region close to the MRS3 gene and was transcribed from an unknown promoter divergently from the MRS3 gene. The event leading to the revertant strain Rev9 included a rearrangement that increased the size of chromosome X by about 60 kb. In agreement with such a rearrangement, recombination was undetectable in the vicinity of the locus dl9. Genetic mapping confirms that the MRS3 gene is 2 cM distal to the URA2 gene on the right arm of chromosome X.

    Notes: We report the DNA sequence of a segment located on the right arm of chromosome II from Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C near the subtelomeric sequences. The sequence was determined using a random cloning strategy followed by an oligonucleotide-directed sequencing. The segment contains four non-overlapping open reading frames (ORFs) YBR297w, YBR298c, YBR299w and YBR301c, and two overlapping ones (YBR300c and YBR300w). Three of them - YBR297w, YBR298c and YBR299w - are the MAL3R (transcriptional regulatory protein), MAL3T (maltose permease) and MAL3S (maltase) genes of the MAL3 locus previously localized. The three other ORFs are unidentified. Another MAL locus (MAL1) has been localized on chromosome VII. The Mal- phenotype of strain S288c cannot be explained by telomeric silencing. The sequences have been submitted to the EMBL data library under Accession Numbers Z36166; Z36167; Z36168; Z36169 and Z36171.

    Notes: In an earlier study, we found no effects of 60 Hz electric and magnetic fields (EMF) from a 500 kV transmission line on serum melatonin patterns or on puberty in ten female Suffolk lambs (Ovis aries). We conducted a larger replicate study of 15 lambs exposed to a mean electric field of 6.3 kV/m and a mean magnetic field of 3.77 μT and 15 controls exposed to EMF two orders of magnitude weaker than in the line area. The replicate produced essentially the same results as our previous study. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Metatherian (marsupial) mammals possess a non-random form of X-chromosome inactivation in which the paternally-derived X is always the one inactivated. To examine the progression of X-linked gene expression during metatherian development, we compared relative levels of the maternally and paternally encoded Gpd gene products in heterozygous female Virginia opossums (Didelphis virginiana) across a moior portion of the developmental period. Panels of tissues obtained from fetuses, newborns, and pouch young were examined via polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the G6PD protein. As in adults, G6PD phenotypes in these developmental stages were highly skewed in favor of the maternal allele product, but in some tissues there was a marked increase in paternal allele expression with advancing developmental age. However, even by 42 days of post-partum development, expression of the paternal Gpd allele had not attained the adult, tissue-specific activity pattern. Our findings indicate remarkable developmental changes in the activity of the paternal allele in several tissues/organs continuing well into mid pouch-life stages and beyond. Specifically we found that 1) a substantially repressed paternal Gpdgene is present in the cells of female stage 29 fetuses and later developmental stages, 2) the activity state of the paternal Gpd gene is not fixed during early embryonic development in this species, 3) maior changes in paternal Gpd expression occur in advanced developmental stages and comprise a maturation of the gene expression pattern during ontogeny, and 4) alterations of paternal Gpd allele activity during development occur in a tissue-specific manner. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Description: The human beta-globin locus control region (LCR) controls the transcription, chromatin structure, and replication timing of the entire locus. DNA replication was found to initiate in a transcription-independent manner within a region located 50 kilobases downstream of the LCR in human, mouse, and chicken cells containing the entire human beta-globin locus. However, DNA replication did not initiate within a deletion mutant locus lacking the sequences that encompass the LCR. This mutant locus replicated in the 3' to 5' direction. Thus, interactions between distantly separated sequences can be required for replication initiation, and factors mediating this interaction appear to be conserved in evolution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aladjem, M I -- Groudine, M -- Brody, L L -- Dieken, E S -- Fournier, R E -- Wahl, G M -- Epner, E M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Nov 3;270(5237):815-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Gene Expression Laboratory, Salk Institute, San Diego, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7481774" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Plants can recognize pathogens through the action of disease resistance (R) genes, which confer resistance to pathogens expressing unique corresponding avirulence (avr) genes. The molecular basis of this gene-for-gene specificity is unknown. The Arabidopsis thaliana RPM1 gene enables dual specificity to pathogens expressing either of two unrelated Pseudomonas syringae avr genes. Despite this function, RPM1 encodes a protein sharing molecular features with recently described single-specificity R genes. Surprisingly, RPM1 is lacking from naturally occurring, disease-susceptible Arabidopsis accessions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Grant, M R -- Godiard, L -- Straube, E -- Ashfield, T -- Lewald, J -- Sattler, A -- Innes, R W -- Dangl, J L -- R29 GM 46451/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Aug 11;269(5225):843-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Max-Delbruck Laboratory, Koln, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7638602" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Severe childhood autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy (SCARMD) is a progressive muscle-wasting disorder common in North Africa that segregates with microsatellite markers at chromosome 13q12. Here, it is shown that a mutation in the gene encoding the 35-kilodalton dystrophin-associated glycoprotein, gamma-sarcoglycan, is likely to be the primary genetic defect in this disorder. The human gamma-sarcoglycan gene was mapped to chromosome 13q12, and deletions that alter its reading frame were identified in three families and one of four sporadic cases of SCARMD. These mutations not only affect gamma-sarcoglycan but also disrupt the integrity of the entire sarcoglycan complex.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Noguchi, S -- McNally, E M -- Ben Othmane, K -- Hagiwara, Y -- Mizuno, Y -- Yoshida, M -- Yamamoto, H -- Bonnemann, C G -- Gussoni, E -- Denton, P H -- Kyriakides, T -- Middleton, L -- Hentati, F -- Ben Hamida, M -- Nonaka, I -- Vance, J M -- Kunkel, L M -- Ozawa, E -- NS23740/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01-NS26630/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Nov 3;270(5237):819-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉National Institute of Neuroscience, National Center for Neurology and Psychiatry, Tokyo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7481775" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
