    A protein interaction map of Drosophila melanogaster (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-11-08
    Description: Drosophila melanogaster is a proven model system for many aspects of human biology. Here we present a two-hybrid-based protein-interaction map of the fly proteome. A total of 10,623 predicted transcripts were isolated and screened against standard and normalized complementary DNA libraries to produce a draft map of 7048 proteins and 20,405 interactions. A computational method of rating two-hybrid interaction confidence was developed to refine this draft map to a higher confidence map of 4679 proteins and 4780 interactions. Statistical modeling of the network showed two levels of organization: a short-range organization, presumably corresponding to multiprotein complexes, and a more global organization, presumably corresponding to intercomplex connections. The network recapitulated known pathways, extended pathways, and uncovered previously unknown pathway components. This map serves as a starting point for a systems biology modeling of multicellular organisms, including humans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Giot, L -- Bader, J S -- Brouwer, C -- Chaudhuri, A -- Kuang, B -- Li, Y -- Hao, Y L -- Ooi, C E -- Godwin, B -- Vitols, E -- Vijayadamodar, G -- Pochart, P -- Machineni, H -- Welsh, M -- Kong, Y -- Zerhusen, B -- Malcolm, R -- Varrone, Z -- Collis, A -- Minto, M -- Burgess, S -- McDaniel, L -- Stimpson, E -- Spriggs, F -- Williams, J -- Neurath, K -- Ioime, N -- Agee, M -- Voss, E -- Furtak, K -- Renzulli, R -- Aanensen, N -- Carrolla, S -- Bickelhaupt, E -- Lazovatsky, Y -- DaSilva, A -- Zhong, J -- Stanyon, C A -- Finley, R L Jr -- White, K P -- Braverman, M -- Jarvie, T -- Gold, S -- Leach, M -- Knight, J -- Shimkets, R A -- McKenna, M P -- Chant, J -- Rothberg, J M -- HG01536/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Dec 5;302(5651):1727-36.

    Visfatin: a protein secreted by visceral fat that mimics the effects of insulin (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-12-18
    Description: Fat tissue produces a variety of secreted proteins (adipocytokines) with important roles in metabolism. We isolated a newly identified adipocytokine, visfatin, that is highly enriched in the visceral fat of both humans and mice and whose expression level in plasma increases during the development of obesity. Visfatin corresponds to a protein identified previously as pre-B cell colony-enhancing factor (PBEF), a 52-kilodalton cytokine expressed in lymphocytes. Visfatin exerted insulin-mimetic effects in cultured cells and lowered plasma glucose levels in mice. Mice heterozygous for a targeted mutation in the visfatin gene had modestly higher levels of plasma glucose relative to wild-type littermates. Surprisingly, visfatin binds to and activates the insulin receptor. Further study of visfatin's physiological role may lead to new insights into glucose homeostasis and/or new therapies for metabolic disorders such as diabetes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fukuhara, Atsunori -- Matsuda, Morihiro -- Nishizawa, Masako -- Segawa, Katsumori -- Tanaka, Masaki -- Kishimoto, Kae -- Matsuki, Yasushi -- Murakami, Mirei -- Ichisaka, Tomoko -- Murakami, Hiroko -- Watanabe, Eijiro -- Takagi, Toshiyuki -- Akiyoshi, Megumi -- Ohtsubo, Tsuguteru -- Kihara, Shinji -- Yamashita, Shizuya -- Makishima, Makoto -- Funahashi, Tohru -- Yamanaka, Shinya -- Hiramatsu, Ryuji -- Matsuzawa, Yuji -- Shimomura, Iichiro -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jan 21;307(5708):426-30.

    Induction of direct antimicrobial activity through mammalian toll-like receptors (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-02-27
    Description: The mammalian innate immune system retains from Drosophila a family of homologous Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that mediate responses to microbial ligands. Here, we show that TLR2 activation leads to killing of intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis in both mouse and human macrophages, through distinct mechanisms. In mouse macrophages, bacterial lipoprotein activation of TLR2 leads to a nitric oxide-dependent killing of intracellular tubercle bacilli, but in human monocytes and alveolar macrophages, this pathway was nitric oxide-independent. Thus, mammalian TLRs respond (as Drosophila Toll receptors do) to microbial ligands and also have the ability to activate antimicrobial effector pathways at the site of infection.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thoma-Uszynski, S -- Stenger, S -- Takeuchi, O -- Ochoa, M T -- Engele, M -- Sieling, P A -- Barnes, P F -- Rollinghoff, M -- Bolcskei, P L -- Wagner, M -- Akira, S -- Norgard, M V -- Belisle, J T -- Godowski, P J -- Bloom, B R -- Modlin, R L -- AI 07118/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI 22553/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI 47868/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AR 40312/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Feb 23;291(5508):1544-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Dermatology, Department of Microbiology and Immunology and Molecular Biology Institute, UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11222859" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Derivatives of erythropoietin that are tissue protective but not erythropoietic (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-07-13
    Description: Erythropoietin (EPO) is both hematopoietic and tissue protective, putatively through interaction with different receptors. We generated receptor subtype-selective ligands allowing the separation of EPO's bioactivities at the cellular level and in animals. Carbamylated EPO (CEPO) or certain EPO mutants did not bind to the classical EPO receptor (EPOR) and did not show any hematopoietic activity in human cell signaling assays or upon chronic dosing in different animal species. Nevertheless, CEPO and various nonhematopoietic mutants were cytoprotective in vitro and conferred neuroprotection against stroke, spinal cord compression, diabetic neuropathy, and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis at a potency and efficacy comparable to EPO.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Leist, Marcel -- Ghezzi, Pietro -- Grasso, Giovanni -- Bianchi, Roberto -- Villa, Pia -- Fratelli, Maddalena -- Savino, Costanza -- Bianchi, Marina -- Nielsen, Jacob -- Gerwien, Jens -- Kallunki, Pekka -- Larsen, Anna Kirstine -- Helboe, Lone -- Christensen, Soren -- Pedersen, Lars O -- Nielsen, Mette -- Torup, Lars -- Sager, Thomas -- Sfacteria, Alessandra -- Erbayraktar, Serhat -- Erbayraktar, Zubeyde -- Gokmen, Necati -- Yilmaz, Osman -- Cerami-Hand, Carla -- Xie, Qiao-Wen -- Coleman, Thomas -- Cerami, Anthony -- Brines, Michael -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jul 9;305(5681):239-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉H.

    Immunity-related genes and gene families in Anopheles gambiae (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-10-05
    Description: We have identified 242 Anopheles gambiae genes from 18 gene families implicated in innate immunity and have detected marked diversification relative to Drosophila melanogaster. Immune-related gene families involved in recognition, signal modulation, and effector systems show a marked deficit of orthologs and excessive gene expansions, possibly reflecting selection pressures from different pathogens encountered in these insects' very different life-styles. In contrast, the multifunctional Toll signal transduction pathway is substantially conserved, presumably because of counterselection for developmental stability. Representative expression profiles confirm that sequence diversification is accompanied by specific responses to different immune challenges. Alternative RNA splicing may also contribute to expansion of the immune repertoire.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Christophides, George K -- Zdobnov, Evgeny -- Barillas-Mury, Carolina -- Birney, Ewan -- Blandin, Stephanie -- Blass, Claudia -- Brey, Paul T -- Collins, Frank H -- Danielli, Alberto -- Dimopoulos, George -- Hetru, Charles -- Hoa, Ngo T -- Hoffmann, Jules A -- Kanzok, Stefan M -- Letunic, Ivica -- Levashina, Elena A -- Loukeris, Thanasis G -- Lycett, Gareth -- Meister, Stephan -- Michel, Kristin -- Moita, Luis F -- Muller, Hans-Michael -- Osta, Mike A -- Paskewitz, Susan M -- Reichhart, Jean-Marc -- Rzhetsky, Andrey -- Troxler, Laurent -- Vernick, Kenneth D -- Vlachou, Dina -- Volz, Jennifer -- von Mering, Christian -- Xu, Jiannong -- Zheng, Liangbiao -- Bork, Peer -- Kafatos, Fotis C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Oct 4;298(5591):159-65.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉European Molecular Biology Laboratory, Meyerhofstrasse 1, D-69117 Heidelberg, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12364793" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A transcriptional switch mediated by cofactor methylation (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-11-10
    Description: We describe a molecular switch based on the controlled methylation of nucleosome and the transcriptional cofactors, the CREB-binding proteins (CBP)/p300. The CBP/p300 methylation site is localized to an arginine residue that is essential for stabilizing the structure of the KIX domain, which mediates CREB recruitment. Methylation of KIX by coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) blocks CREB activation by disabling the interaction between KIX and the kinase inducible domain (KID) of CREB. Thus, CARM1 functions as a corepressor in cyclic adenosine monophosphate signaling pathway via its methyltransferase activity while acting as a coactivator for nuclear hormones. These results provide strong in vivo and in vitro evidence that histone methylation plays a key role in hormone-induced gene activation and define cofactor methylation as a new regulatory mechanism in hormone signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Xu, W -- Chen, H -- Du, K -- Asahara, H -- Tini, M -- Emerson, B M -- Montminy, M -- Evans, R M -- 9R01DK57978/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Dec 21;294(5551):2507-11.

    Genome sequence of the plant pathogen and biotechnology agent Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-12-18
    Description: Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogen capable of transferring a defined segment of DNA to a host plant, generating a gall tumor. Replacing the transferred tumor-inducing genes with exogenous DNA allows the introduction of any desired gene into the plant. Thus, A. tumefaciens has been critical for the development of modern plant genetics and agricultural biotechnology. Here we describe the genome of A. tumefaciens strain C58, which has an unusual structure consisting of one circular and one linear chromosome. We discuss genome architecture and evolution and additional genes potentially involved in virulence and metabolic parasitism of host plants.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goodner, B -- Hinkle, G -- Gattung, S -- Miller, N -- Blanchard, M -- Qurollo, B -- Goldman, B S -- Cao, Y -- Askenazi, M -- Halling, C -- Mullin, L -- Houmiel, K -- Gordon, J -- Vaudin, M -- Iartchouk, O -- Epp, A -- Liu, F -- Wollam, C -- Allinger, M -- Doughty, D -- Scott, C -- Lappas, C -- Markelz, B -- Flanagan, C -- Crowell, C -- Gurson, J -- Lomo, C -- Sear, C -- Strub, G -- Cielo, C -- Slater, S -- R15 GM61690-01/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Dec 14;294(5550):2323-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Hiram College, Hiram, OH 44234, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11743194" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A sperm cytoskeletal protein that signals oocyte meiotic maturation and ovulation (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-03-17
    Description: Caenorhabditis elegans oocytes, like those of most animals, arrest during meiotic prophase. Sperm promote the resumption of meiosis (maturation) and contraction of smooth muscle-like gonadal sheath cells, which are required for ovulation. We show that the major sperm cytoskeletal protein (MSP) is a bipartite signal for oocyte maturation and sheath contraction. MSP also functions in sperm locomotion, playing a role analogous to actin. Thus, during evolution, MSP has acquired extracellular signaling and intracellular cytoskeletal functions for reproduction. Proteins with MSP-like domains are found in plants, fungi, and other animals, suggesting that related signaling functions may exist in other phyla.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Miller, M A -- Nguyen, V Q -- Lee, M H -- Kosinski, M -- Schedl, T -- Caprioli, R M -- Greenstein, D -- CA09592/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM57173/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM58008/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD07043/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD25614/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM057173/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HD025614/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Mar 16;291(5511):2144-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, Mass Spectrometry Research Center, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37232, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11251118" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Intercellular communication in the mammalian ovary: oocytes carry the conversation (2002)

    Publication Date: 2002-06-22
    Description: The production of functional female gametes is essential for the propagation of all vertebrate species. The growth of oocytes within ovarian follicles and their development to mature eggs have fascinated biologists for centuries, and scientists have long realized the importance of the ovarian follicle's somatic cells in nurturing oogenesis and delivering the oocyte to the oviduct by ovulation. Recent studies have revealed key roles of the oocyte in folliculogenesis and established that bidirectional communication between the oocyte and companion somatic cells is essential for development of an egg competent to undergo fertilization and embryogenesis. The challenge for the future is to identify the factors that participate in this communication and their mechanisms of action.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Matzuk, Martin M -- Burns, Kathleen H -- Viveiros, Maria M -- Eppig, John J -- CA60651/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA62392/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- EY07102/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- GM07330/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD07495/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD23839/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD32067/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD33438/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 21;296(5576):2178-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Baylor College of Medicine, 1 Baylor Plaza, Houston, TX 77030, USA. mmatzuk@bcm.tmc.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12077402" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Treatment of ischemic brain damage by perturbing NMDA receptor- PSD-95 protein interactions (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-10-26
    Description: N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) mediate ischemic brain damage but also mediate essential neuronal excitation. To treat stroke without blocking NMDARs, we transduced neurons with peptides that disrupted the interaction of NMDARs with the postsynaptic density protein PSD-95. This procedure dissociated NMDARs from downstream neurotoxic signaling without blocking synaptic activity or calcium influx. The peptides, when applied either before or 1 hour after an insult, protected cultured neurons from excitotoxicity, reduced focal ischemic brain damage in rats, and improved their neurological function. This approach circumvents the negative consequences associated with blocking NMDARs and may constitute a practical stroke therapy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aarts, Michelle -- Liu, Yitao -- Liu, Lidong -- Besshoh, Shintaro -- Arundine, Mark -- Gurd, James W -- Wang, Yu-Tian -- Salter, Michael W -- Tymianski, Michael -- NS 39060/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Oct 25;298(5594):846-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Toronto Western Hospital Research Institute, 11-416 MC-PAV, 399 Bathurst Street, Toronto, Ontario M5T 2S8, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12399596" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
