    HIFalpha targeted for VHL-mediated destruction by proline hydroxylation: implications for O2 sensing (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-04-09
    Description: HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor) is a transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in cellular adaptation to changes in oxygen availability. In the presence of oxygen, HIF is targeted for destruction by an E3 ubiquitin ligase containing the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein (pVHL). We found that human pVHL binds to a short HIF-derived peptide when a conserved proline residue at the core of this peptide is hydroxylated. Because proline hydroxylation requires molecular oxygen and Fe(2+), this protein modification may play a key role in mammalian oxygen sensing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ivan, M -- Kondo, K -- Yang, H -- Kim, W -- Valiando, J -- Ohh, M -- Salic, A -- Asara, J M -- Lane, W S -- Kaelin , W G Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Apr 20;292(5516):464-8.

    Structure of an HIF-1alpha -pVHL complex: hydroxyproline recognition in signaling (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-05-11
    Description: The ubiquitination of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) by the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (pVHL) plays a central role in the cellular response to changes in oxygen availability. pVHL binds to HIF only when a conserved proline in HIF is hydroxylated, a modification that is oxygen-dependent. The 1.85 angstrom structure of a 20-residue HIF-1alpha peptide-pVHL-ElonginB-ElonginC complex shows that HIF-1alpha binds to pVHL in an extended beta strand-like conformation. The hydroxyproline inserts into a gap in the pVHL hydrophobic core, at a site that is a hotspot for tumorigenic mutations, with its 4-hydroxyl group recognized by buried serine and histidine residues. Although the beta sheet-like interactions contribute to the stability of the complex, the hydroxyproline contacts are central to the strict specificity characteristic of signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Min, Jung-Hyun -- Yang, Haifeng -- Ivan, Mircea -- Gertler, Frank -- Kaelin, William G Jr -- Pavletich, Nikola P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 7;296(5574):1886-9.

    Surface expression of HLA-E, an inhibitor of natural killer cells, enhanced by human cytomegalovirus gpUL40 (2000)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2000-02-11
    Description: The nonclassical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecule HLA-E inhibits natural killer (NK) cell-mediated lysis by interacting with CD94/NKG2A receptors. Surface expression of HLA-E depends on binding of conserved peptides derived from MHC class I molecules. The same peptide is present in the leader sequence of the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) glycoprotein UL40 (gpUL40). It is shown that, independently of the transporter associated with antigen processing, gpUL40 can up-regulate expression of HLA-E, which protects targets from NK cell lysis. While classical MHC class I molecules are down-regulated, HLA-E is up-regulated by HCMV. Induction of HLA-E surface expression by gpUL40 may represent an escape route for HCMV.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tomasec, P -- Braud, V M -- Rickards, C -- Powell, M B -- McSharry, B P -- Gadola, S -- Cerundolo, V -- Borysiewicz, L K -- McMichael, A J -- Wilkinson, G W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Feb 11;287(5455):1031.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of Wales College of Medicine, Cardiff CF14 4XN, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10669413" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Human hypertension caused by mutations in WNK kinases (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-08-11
    Description: Hypertension is a major public health problem of largely unknown cause. Here, we identify two genes causing pseudohypoaldosteronism type II, a Mendelian trait featuring hypertension, increased renal salt reabsorption, and impaired K+ and H+ excretion. Both genes encode members of the WNK family of serine-threonine kinases. Disease-causing mutations in WNK1 are large intronic deletions that increase WNK1 expression. The mutations in WNK4 are missense, which cluster in a short, highly conserved segment of the encoded protein. Both proteins localize to the distal nephron, a kidney segment involved in salt, K+, and pH homeostasis. WNK1 is cytoplasmic, whereas WNK4 localizes to tight junctions. The WNK kinases and their associated signaling pathway(s) may offer new targets for the development of antihypertensive drugs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wilson, F H -- Disse-Nicodeme, S -- Choate, K A -- Ishikawa, K -- Nelson-Williams, C -- Desitter, I -- Gunel, M -- Milford, D V -- Lipkin, G W -- Achard, J M -- Feely, M P -- Dussol, B -- Berland, Y -- Unwin, R J -- Mayan, H -- Simon, D B -- Farfel, Z -- Jeunemaitre, X -- Lifton, R P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Aug 10;293(5532):1107-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute; Yale University School of Medicine, Boyer Center for Molecular Medicine, 295 Congress Avenue, New Haven, CT 06510 USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11498583" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Global mapping of the yeast genetic interaction network (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-02-07
    Description: A genetic interaction network containing approximately 1000 genes and approximately 4000 interactions was mapped by crossing mutations in 132 different query genes into a set of approximately 4700 viable gene yeast deletion mutants and scoring the double mutant progeny for fitness defects. Network connectivity was predictive of function because interactions often occurred among functionally related genes, and similar patterns of interactions tended to identify components of the same pathway. The genetic network exhibited dense local neighborhoods; therefore, the position of a gene on a partially mapped network is predictive of other genetic interactions. Because digenic interactions are common in yeast, similar networks may underlie the complex genetics associated with inherited phenotypes in other organisms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tong, Amy Hin Yan -- Lesage, Guillaume -- Bader, Gary D -- Ding, Huiming -- Xu, Hong -- Xin, Xiaofeng -- Young, James -- Berriz, Gabriel F -- Brost, Renee L -- Chang, Michael -- Chen, YiQun -- Cheng, Xin -- Chua, Gordon -- Friesen, Helena -- Goldberg, Debra S -- Haynes, Jennifer -- Humphries, Christine -- He, Grace -- Hussein, Shamiza -- Ke, Lizhu -- Krogan, Nevan -- Li, Zhijian -- Levinson, Joshua N -- Lu, Hong -- Menard, Patrice -- Munyana, Christella -- Parsons, Ainslie B -- Ryan, Owen -- Tonikian, Raffi -- Roberts, Tania -- Sdicu, Anne-Marie -- Shapiro, Jesse -- Sheikh, Bilal -- Suter, Bernhard -- Wong, Sharyl L -- Zhang, Lan V -- Zhu, Hongwei -- Burd, Christopher G -- Munro, Sean -- Sander, Chris -- Rine, Jasper -- Greenblatt, Jack -- Peter, Matthias -- Bretscher, Anthony -- Bell, Graham -- Roth, Frederick P -- Brown, Grant W -- Andrews, Brenda -- Bussey, Howard -- Boone, Charles -- GM39066/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM61221/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Feb 6;303(5659):808-13.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Banting and Best Department of Medical Research, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada M5G 1L6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14764870" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
