    Cements, sulfate, and Burgess Shale preservation [Letters (Online Only)] (2012)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-07-11
    Description: In his work, Butterfield (1) makes several claims about carbonate cements in the Walcott Quarry Member of the Burgess Shale, including the contention that they are not regularly associated with fossil-bearing beds. This claim is inaccurate. Each millimeter- to centimeter-scale bed within the interval is cemented by calcite (figures 2–5 in ref. 2), including the exceptionally fossiliferous Great Marella Layer referred to in the work (1), which contains cements dispersed throughout its thickness and a prominently-cemented top (Fig. 1). The work by Butterfield (1) also suggests that the carbonate cements in the Burgess Shale were derived from recrystallization of coarse-grained...

    Heme-protein vibrational couplings in cytochrome c [Chemistry] (2012)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-06-06
    Description: The active site of cytochrome c (Cyt c) consists of a heme covalently linked to a pentapeptide segment (Cys-X-X-Cys-His), which provides a link between the heme and the protein surface, where the redox partners of Cyt c bind. To elucidate the vibrational properties of heme c, nuclear resonance vibrational spectroscopy (NRVS) measurements were performed on 57Fe-labeled ferric Hydrogenobacter thermophilus cytochrome c552, including 13C8-heme–, 13C515N-Met–, and 13C15N-polypeptide (pp)–labeled samples, revealing heme-based vibrational modes in the 200- to 450-cm−1 spectral region. Simulations of the NRVS spectra of H. thermophilus cytochrome c552 allowed for a complete assignment of the Fe vibrational spectrum of the protein-bound heme, as well as the quantitative determination of the amount of mixing between local heme vibrations and pp modes from the Cys-X-X-Cys-His motif. These results provide the basis to propose that heme-pp vibrational dynamic couplings play a role in electron transfer (ET) by coupling vibrations of the heme directly to vibrations of the pp at the protein–protein interface. This could allow for the direct transduction of the thermal (vibrational) energy from the protein surface to the heme that is released on protein/protein complex formation, or it could modulate the heme vibrations in the protein/protein complex to minimize reorganization energy. Both mechanisms lower energy barriers for ET. Notably, the conformation of the distal Met side chain is fine-tuned in the protein to localize heme-pp mixed vibrations within the 250- to 400-cm−1 spectral region. These findings point to a particular orientation of the distal Met that maximizes ET.

    Epigenetic silencing of TH1-type chemokines shapes tumour immunity and immunotherapy (2015)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-10-28
    Description: Epigenetic silencing including histone modifications and DNA methylation is an important tumorigenic mechanism. However, its role in cancer immunopathology and immunotherapy is poorly understood. Using human ovarian cancers as our model, here we show that enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2)-mediated histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)-mediated DNA methylation repress the tumour production of T helper 1 (TH1)-type chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10, and subsequently determine effector T-cell trafficking to the tumour microenvironment. Treatment with epigenetic modulators removes the repression and increases effector T-cell tumour infiltration, slows down tumour progression, and improves the therapeutic efficacy of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1; also known as B7-H1) checkpoint blockade and adoptive T-cell transfusion in tumour-bearing mice. Moreover, tumour EZH2 and DNMT1 are negatively associated with tumour-infiltrating CD8(+) T cells and patient outcome. Thus, epigenetic silencing of TH1-type chemokines is a novel immune-evasion mechanism of tumours. Selective epigenetic reprogramming alters the T-cell landscape in cancer and may enhance the clinical efficacy of cancer therapy.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4779053/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4779053/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Peng, Dongjun -- Kryczek, Ilona -- Nagarsheth, Nisha -- Zhao, Lili -- Wei, Shuang -- Wang, Weimin -- Sun, Yuqing -- Zhao, Ende -- Vatan, Linda -- Szeliga, Wojciech -- Kotarski, Jan -- Tarkowski, Rafal -- Dou, Yali -- Cho, Kathleen -- Hensley-Alford, Sharon -- Munkarah, Adnan -- Liu, Rebecca -- Zou, Weiping -- 5P30CA46592/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA099985/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA123088/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA152470/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA156685/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA171306/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA190176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA193136/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA099985/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA123088/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA152470/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA156685/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA171306/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA190176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA193136/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2015 Nov 12;527(7577):249-53. doi: 10.1038/nature15520.

    Mechanism for Burgess Shale-type preservation [Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences] (2012)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-04-04
    Description: Exceptionally preserved fossil biotas of the Burgess Shale and a handful of other similar Cambrian deposits provide rare but critical insights into the early diversification of animals. The extraordinary preservation of labile tissues in these geographically widespread but temporally restricted soft-bodied fossil assemblages has remained enigmatic since Walcott’s initial discovery in 1909. Here, we demonstrate the mechanism of Burgess Shale-type preservation using sedimentologic and geochemical data from the Chengjiang, Burgess Shale, and five other principal Burgess Shale-type deposits. Sulfur isotope evidence from sedimentary pyrites reveals that the exquisite fossilization of organic remains as carbonaceous compressions resulted from early inhibition of microbial activity in the sediments by means of oxidant deprivation. Low sulfate concentrations in the global ocean and low-oxygen bottom water conditions at the sites of deposition resulted in reduced oxidant availability. Subsequently, rapid entombment of fossils in fine-grained sediments and early sealing of sediments by pervasive carbonate cements at bed tops restricted oxidant flux into the sediments. A permeability barrier, provided by bed-capping cements that were emplaced at the seafloor, is a feature that is shared among Burgess Shale-type deposits, and resulted from the unusually high alkalinity of Cambrian oceans. Thus, Burgess Shale-type preservation of soft-bodied fossil assemblages worldwide was promoted by unique aspects of early Paleozoic seawater chemistry that strongly impacted sediment diagenesis, providing a fundamentally unique record of the immediate aftermath of the “Cambrian explosion.”
