    Actin filament curvature biases branching direction [Biophysics and Computational Biology] (2012)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-02-22
    Description: Mechanical cues affect many important biological processes in metazoan cells, such as migration, proliferation, and differentiation. Such cues are thought to be detected by specialized mechanosensing molecules linked to the cytoskeleton, an intracellular network of protein filaments that provide mechanical rigidity to the cell and drive cellular shape change. The most abundant such filament, actin, forms branched networks nucleated by the actin-related protein (Arp) 2/3 complex that support or induce membrane protrusions and display adaptive behavior in response to compressive forces. Here we show that filamentous actin serves in a mechanosensitive capacity itself, by biasing the location of actin branch nucleation in response to filament bending. Using an in vitro assay to measure branching from curved sections of immobilized actin filaments, we observed preferential branch formation by the Arp2/3 complex on the convex face of the curved filament. To explain this behavior, we propose a fluctuation gating model in which filament binding or branch nucleation by Arp2/3 occur only when a sufficiently large, transient, local curvature fluctuation causes a favorable conformational change in the filament, and we show with Monte Carlo simulations that this model can quantitatively account for our experimental data. We also show how the branching bias can reinforce actin networks in response to compressive forces. These results demonstrate how filament curvature can alter the interaction of cytoskeletal filaments with regulatory proteins, suggesting that direct mechanotransduction by actin may serve as a general mechanism for organizing the cytoskeleton in response to force.

    Cell cycle progression in confining microenvironments is regulated by a growth-responsive TRPV4-PI3K/Akt-p27Kip1 signaling axis (2019)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019
    Description: 〈p〉In tissues, cells reside in confining microenvironments, which may mechanically restrict the ability of a cell to double in size as it prepares to divide. How confinement affects cell cycle progression remains unclear. We show that cells progressed through the cell cycle and proliferated when cultured in hydrogels exhibiting fast stress relaxation but were mostly arrested in the G〈sub〉0〈/sub〉/G〈sub〉1〈/sub〉 phase of the cell cycle when cultured in hydrogels that exhibit slow stress relaxation. In fast-relaxing gels, activity of stretch-activated channels (SACs), including TRPV4, promotes activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway, which in turn drives cytoplasmic localization of the cell cycle inhibitor p27〈sup〉Kip1〈/sup〉, thereby allowing S phase entry and proliferation. Cell growth during G〈sub〉1〈/sub〉 activated the TRPV4-PI3K/Akt-p27〈sup〉Kip1〈/sup〉 signaling axis, but growth is inhibited in the confining slow-relaxing hydrogels. Thus, in confining microenvironments, cells sense when growth is sufficient for division to proceed through a growth-responsive signaling axis mediated by SACs.〈/p〉

    Sugar transporters for intercellular exchange and nutrition of pathogens (2010)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2010-11-26
    Description: Sugar efflux transporters are essential for the maintenance of animal blood glucose levels, plant nectar production, and plant seed and pollen development. Despite broad biological importance, the identity of sugar efflux transporters has remained elusive. Using optical glucose sensors, we identified a new class of sugar transporters, named SWEETs, and show that at least six out of seventeen Arabidopsis, two out of over twenty rice and two out of seven homologues in Caenorhabditis elegans, and the single copy human protein, mediate glucose transport. Arabidopsis SWEET8 is essential for pollen viability, and the rice homologues SWEET11 and SWEET14 are specifically exploited by bacterial pathogens for virulence by means of direct binding of a bacterial effector to the SWEET promoter. Bacterial symbionts and fungal and bacterial pathogens induce the expression of different SWEET genes, indicating that the sugar efflux function of SWEET transporters is probably targeted by pathogens and symbionts for nutritional gain. The metazoan homologues may be involved in sugar efflux from intestinal, liver, epididymis and mammary cells.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3000469/" 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/PMC3000469/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chen, Li-Qing -- Hou, Bi-Huei -- Lalonde, Sylvie -- Takanaga, Hitomi -- Hartung, Mara L -- Qu, Xiao-Qing -- Guo, Woei-Jiun -- Kim, Jung-Gun -- Underwood, William -- Chaudhuri, Bhavna -- Chermak, Diane -- Antony, Ginny -- White, Frank F -- Somerville, Shauna C -- Mudgett, Mary Beth -- Frommer, Wolf B -- 1R01DK079109/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- F32GM083439-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109-01/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109-02/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109-03/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109-03S1/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK079109-04/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM068886/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- ZR01GM06886-06A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Nov 25;468(7323):527-32. doi: 10.1038/nature09606.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant Biology, Carnegie Institution for Science, 260 Panama St, Stanford, California 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21107422" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Real-time DNA sequencing from single polymerase molecules (2008)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-11-22
    Description: We present single-molecule, real-time sequencing data obtained from a DNA polymerase performing uninterrupted template-directed synthesis using four distinguishable fluorescently labeled deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs). We detected the temporal order of their enzymatic incorporation into a growing DNA strand with zero-mode waveguide nanostructure arrays, which provide optical observation volume confinement and enable parallel, simultaneous detection of thousands of single-molecule sequencing reactions. Conjugation of fluorophores to the terminal phosphate moiety of the dNTPs allows continuous observation of DNA synthesis over thousands of bases without steric hindrance. The data report directly on polymerase dynamics, revealing distinct polymerization states and pause sites corresponding to DNA secondary structure. Sequence data were aligned with the known reference sequence to assay biophysical parameters of polymerization for each template position. Consensus sequences were generated from the single-molecule reads at 15-fold coverage, showing a median accuracy of 99.3%, with no systematic error beyond fluorophore-dependent error rates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Eid, John -- Fehr, Adrian -- Gray, Jeremy -- Luong, Khai -- Lyle, John -- Otto, Geoff -- Peluso, Paul -- Rank, David -- Baybayan, Primo -- Bettman, Brad -- Bibillo, Arkadiusz -- Bjornson, Keith -- Chaudhuri, Bidhan -- Christians, Frederick -- Cicero, Ronald -- Clark, Sonya -- Dalal, Ravindra -- Dewinter, Alex -- Dixon, John -- Foquet, Mathieu -- Gaertner, Alfred -- Hardenbol, Paul -- Heiner, Cheryl -- Hester, Kevin -- Holden, David -- Kearns, Gregory -- Kong, Xiangxu -- Kuse, Ronald -- Lacroix, Yves -- Lin, Steven -- Lundquist, Paul -- Ma, Congcong -- Marks, Patrick -- Maxham, Mark -- Murphy, Devon -- Park, Insil -- Pham, Thang -- Phillips, Michael -- Roy, Joy -- Sebra, Robert -- Shen, Gene -- Sorenson, Jon -- Tomaney, Austin -- Travers, Kevin -- Trulson, Mark -- Vieceli, John -- Wegener, Jeffrey -- Wu, Dawn -- Yang, Alicia -- Zaccarin, Denis -- Zhao, Peter -- Zhong, Frank -- Korlach, Jonas -- Turner, Stephen -- R01HG003710/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 2;323(5910):133-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1162986.

    Large area, cost effective X-ray masks for high energy photons (2000)

    Notes: Abstract The cost effectiveness of the deep X-ray lithography and electrodeposition process, LIGA, depends directly on the throughput of the process. The use of high energy photons allows the exposure of stacked photoresist and results in high throughput. High energy X-ray exposures require a different mask than low energy X-ray exposures. The high energy mask allows a large area exposure but requires a thicker X-ray absorber. The cost of generating high energy X-ray masks can be drastically reduced by using a thick optical photoresist process rather than an X-ray exposure process. The cost can be further reduced by using alternatives to the typical X-ray absorber, gold. High atomic weight (high Z) materials are ideal absorbers. Lead has been demonstrated as being a useable alternative as an X-ray absorber.

    Notes: Abstract  Fabrication of high aspect ratio structures requires the use of a photoresist able to form a mold with vertical sidewalls. Thus the photoresist should have a high selectivity between the exposed and the unexposed area in the developer. It should be relatively free from stress when applied in thick layers necessary to make high aspect ratio structures. PMMA (Poly Methyl Methacrylate) is the photoresist of choice in the LIGA process, mainly for its ability to hold vertical sidewalls for tall structures. It is applied to the substrate by a glue-down process in which a pre-cast, high molecular weight, sheet of PMMA is attached to the plating base on a substrate. The applied photoresist is then milled down to the precise height by a fly-cutter prior to pattern transfer by x-ray exposure. The requirement that the applied layer be relatively free from stress dictates the choice of glue-down over casting. The substrate preparation steps, as well as the conditioning of the PMMA sheet prior to the glue-down, are done, in part, to reduce the stress in the glued down sheet of photoresist. The cutting of the PMMA sheet in the fly-cutter requires specific operating conditions as well as particular cutting tools to avoid introducing any stress and the resultant crazing of the photoresist.
