    Description: Wood cockroaches in the genus Parcoblatta, comprising 12 species endemic to North America, are highly abundant in southeastern pine forests and represent an important prey of the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker, Picoides borealis. The broad wood cockroach, Parcoblatta lata, is among the largest and most abundant of the wood cockroaches, constituting 〉50% of the biomass of the woodpecker's diet. Because reproduction in red-cockaded woodpeckers is affected dramatically by seasonal and spatial changes in arthropod availability, monitoring P. lata populations could serve as a useful index of habitat suitability for woodpecker conservation and forest management efforts. Female P. lata emit a volatile, long-distance sex pheromone, which, once identified and synthesized, could be deployed for monitoring cockroach populations. We describe here the identification, synthesis, and confirmation of the chemical structure of this pheromone as (4Z,11Z)-oxacyclotrideca-4,11-dien-2-one [= (3Z,10Z)-dodecadienolide; herein referred to as “parcoblattalactone”]. This macrocyclic lactone is a previously unidentified natural product and a previously unknown pheromonal structure for cockroaches, highlighting the great chemical diversity that characterizes olfactory communication in cockroaches: Each long-range sex pheromone identified to date from different genera belongs to a different chemical class. Parcoblattalactone was biologically active in electrophysiological assays and attracted not only P. lata but also several other Parcoblatta species in pine forests, underscoring its utility in monitoring several endemic wood cockroach species in red-cockaded woodpecker habitats.

    Description: ErbB-4 is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates cell proliferation and differentiation. After binding of its ligand heregulin (HRG) or activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), the ErbB-4 ectodomain is cleaved by a metalloprotease. We now report a subsequent cleavage by gamma-secretase that releases the ErbB-4 intracellular domain from the membrane and facilitates its translocation to the nucleus. gamma-Secretase cleavage was prevented by chemical inhibitors or a dominant negative presenilin. Inhibition of gamma-secretase also prevented growth inhibition by HRG. gamma-Secretase cleavage of ErbB-4 may represent another mechanism for receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ni, C Y -- Murphy, M P -- Golde, T E -- Carpenter, G -- CA24071/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA68485/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK20593/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- NS39072/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Dec 7;294(5549):2179-81.

    Description: A tenfold increase in phospholipase C activity specific for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) was immunopurified from extracts of A-431 epidermoid carcinoma cells stimulated with epidermal growth factor. This finding suggests a biochemical link between growth factor-stimulated tyrosine kinase activity and PIP2 hydrolysis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wahl, M I -- Daniel, T O -- Carpenter, G -- CA 43720/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK 38517/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM 07347/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Aug 19;241(4868):968-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37232.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2457254" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) treatment of A-431 epidermoid carcinoma cells elicited a redistribution of phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1) from a predominantly cytosolic localization to membrane fractions. The temporal coincidence of this redistribution with EGF stimulation of inositol phosphate formation and EGF increased phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 suggests that the membrane association of PLC-gamma 1 is a significant event in second messenger transduction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Todderud, G -- Wahl, M I -- Rhee, S G -- Carpenter, G -- CA24071/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM07347/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 AM07491/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 20;249(4966):296-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37232-0146.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2374928" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1), an isozyme of the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C family, which occupies a central role in hormonal signal transduction pathways, is an excellent substrate for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor tyrosine kinase. Epidermal growth factor elicits tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis in various cell lines. The ability of tyrosine phosphorylation to activate the catalytic activity of PLC-gamma 1 was tested. Tyrosine phosphorylation in intact cells or in vitro increased the catalytic activity of PLC-gamma 1. Also, treatment of EGF-activated PLC-gamma 1 with a tyrosine-specific phosphatase substantially decreased the catalytic activity of PLC-gamma 1. These results suggest that the EGF-stimulated formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol in intact cells results, at least in part, from catalytic activation of PLC-gamma 1 through tyrosine phosphorylation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nishibe, S -- Wahl, M I -- Hernandez-Sotomayor, S M -- Tonks, N K -- Rhee, S G -- Carpenter, G -- CA43720/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GMO7347/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 30;250(4985):1253-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37232-0146.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1700866" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor interacts with plasma membrane-associated adapter proteins during endocytosis through coated pits. Almost 50 percent of the total pool of alpha-adaptins was coimmunoprecipitated with the EGF receptor when A-431 cells were treated with EGF at 37 degrees C, but not at 4 degrees C. Partial proteolysis of alpha-adaptin suggested that the amino-terminal domain is the region that associates with the EGF receptor. The extent of receptor-adaptin association was increased in cells depleted of potassium to block endocytosis. These data suggest that receptor-adaptin association occurs in intact cells before coated pits are fully assembled.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sorkin, A -- Carpenter, G -- CA24071/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 30;261(5121):612-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37232-0146.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8342026" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
