    Atomic structure of the cubic core of the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex (1992)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1992-03-20
    Description: The highly symmetric pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes have molecular masses ranging from 5 to 10 million daltons. They consist of numerous copies of three different enzymes: pyruvate dehydrogenase, dihydrolipoyl transacetylase, and lipoamide dehydrogenase. The three-dimensional crystal structure of the catalytic domain of Azotobacter vinelandii dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has been determined at 2.6 angstrom (A) resolution. Eight trimers assemble as a hollow truncated cube with an edge of 125 A, forming the core of the multienzyme complex. Coenzyme A must enter the 29 A long active site channel from the inside of the cube, and lipoamide must enter from the outside. The trimer of the catalytic domain of dihydrolipoyl transacetylase has a topology identical to chloramphenicol acetyl transferase. The atomic structure of the 24-subunit cube core provides a framework for understanding all pyruvate dehydrogenase and related multienzyme complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mattevi, A -- Obmolova, G -- Schulze, E -- Kalk, K H -- Westphal, A H -- de Kok, A -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Mar 20;255(5051):1544-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1549782" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inclusion of thermal motion in crystallographic structures by restrained molecular dynamics (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-09-07
    Description: A protein crystal structure is usually described by one single structure, which largely omits the dynamical behavior of the molecule. A molecular dynamics method with a time-averaged crystallographic restraint was used to overcome this limitation. This method yields an ensemble of structures in which all possible thermal motions are allowed, that is, in additional to isotropic distributions, anisotropic and anharmonic positional distributions occur as well. In the case of bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2, this description markedly improves agreement with the observed x-ray diffraction data compared to the results of the classical one-model structure description. Time-averaged crystallographically restrained molecular dynamics reveals large mobilities in the loops involved in lipid bilayer association.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gros, P -- van Gunsteren, W F -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 7;249(4973):1149-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉BIOSON Research Institute, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2396108" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    EGF receptor and erbB-2 tyrosine kinase domains confer cell specificity for mitogenic signaling (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-04-06
    Description: The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) can efficiently couple with mitogenic signaling pathways when it is transfected into interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent 32D hematopoietic cells. When expression vectors for erbB-2, which is structurally related to EGFR, or its truncated counterpart, delta NerbB-2, were introduced into 32D cells, neither was capable of inducing proliferation. This was despite overexpression and constitutive tyrosine kinase activity of their products at levels associated with potent transformation of fibroblast target cells. Thus, EGFR and erbB-2 couple with distinct mitogenic signaling pathways. The region responsible for the specificity of intracellular signal transduction was localized to a 270-amino acid stretch encompassing their respective tyrosine kinase domains. Thus, tissue- or cell-specific regulation of growth factor receptor signaling can occur at a point after the initial interaction of growth factor with receptor. Such specificity in signal transduction may account for the selection of certain oncogenes in some malignancies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Di Fiore, P P -- Segatto, O -- Taylor, W G -- Aaronson, S A -- Pierce, J H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 6;248(4951):79-83.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Cellular and Molecular Biology, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2181668" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Visualization of quantal synaptic transmission by dendritic calcium imaging (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-01-28
    Description: As changes in synaptic strength are thought to be critical for learning and memory, it would be useful to monitor the activity of individual identified synapses on mammalian central neurons. Calcium imaging of cortical neurons grown in primary culture was used to visualize the activation of individual postsynaptic elements by miniature excitatory synaptic currents elicited by spontaneous quantal release. This approach revealed that the probability of spontaneous activity differed among synapses on the same dendrite. Furthermore, synapses that undergo changes in activity induced by glutamate or phorbol ester treatment were identified.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Murphy, T H -- Baraban, J M -- Wier, W G -- Blatter, L A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jan 28;263(5146):529-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7904774" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Regulation of the Ets-related transcription factor Elf-1 by binding to the retinoblastoma protein (1993)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-05-28
    Description: The retinoblastoma gene product (Rb) is a nuclear phosphoprotein that regulates cell cycle progression. Elf-1 is a lymphoid-specific Ets transcription factor that regulates inducible gene expression during T cell activation. In this report, it is demonstrated that Elf-1 contains a sequence motif that is highly related to the Rb binding sites of several viral oncoproteins and binds to the pocket region of Rb both in vitro and in vivo. Elf-1 binds exclusively to the underphosphorylated form of Rb and fails to bind to Rb mutants derived from patients with retinoblastoma. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated an association between Elf-1 and Rb in resting normal human T cells. After T cell activation, the phosphorylation of Rb results in the release of Elf-1, which is correlated temporally with the activation of Elf-1-mediated transcription. Overexpression of a phosphorylation-defective form of Rb inhibited Elf-1-dependent transcription during T cell activation. These results demonstrate that Rb interacts specifically with a lineage-restricted Ets transcription factor. This regulated interaction may be important for the coordination of lineage-specific effector functions such as lymphokine production with cell cycle progression in activated T cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, C Y -- Petryniak, B -- Thompson, C B -- Kaelin, W G -- Leiden, J M -- R01 AI29673-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 28;260(5112):1330-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of Chicago, IL 60637.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8493578" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Anti-HIV and anti-anti-MHC antibodies in alloimmune and autoimmune mice (1991)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1991-09-06
    Description: Alloimmune mice (mice that have been exposed to cells from another murine strain) were shown to make antibodies against gp120 and p24 of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and mice of the autoimmune strains MRL-lpr/lpr and MRL-(+)/+ made antibodies against gp120. This is surprising because the mice were not exposed to HIV. Furthermore, anti-anti-MHC antibodies (molecules that have shapes similar to those of major histocompatibility complex molecules) were detected in both alloimmune sera and MRL mice. These results are discussed in the context of a possible role for allogeneic stimuli in the pathogenesis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, as suggested by an idiotypic network model.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kion, T A -- Hoffmann, G W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Sep 6;253(5024):1138-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1909456" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An analog of myristic acid with selective toxicity for African trypanosomes (1991)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1991-06-28
    Description: Trypanosoma brucei, the protozoan parasite responsible for African sleeping sickness, evades the host immune response through the process of antigenic variation. The variant antigen, known as the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG), is anchored to the cell surface by a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI) structure that contains myristate (n-tetradecanoate) as its only fatty acid component. The utilization of heteroatom-containing analogs of myristate was studied both in a cell-free system and in vivo. Results indicated that the specificity of fatty acid incorporation depends on chain length rather than on hydrophobicity. One analog, 10-(propoxy)decanoic acid, was highly toxic to trypanosomes in culture although it is nontoxic to mammalian cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Doering, T L -- Raper, J -- Buxbaum, L U -- Adams, S P -- Gordon, J I -- Hart, G W -- Englund, P T -- 5T32GM07309/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- AI21334/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI27179/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Jun 28;252(5014):1851-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry, Johns Hopkins Medical School, Baltimore, MD 21210.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1829548" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure and function of lipopolysaccharide binding protein (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-09-21
    Description: The primary structure of lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP), a trace plasma protein that binds to the lipid A moiety of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs), was deduced by sequencing cloned complementary DNA. LBP shares sequence identity with another LPS binding protein found in granulocytes, bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein, and with cholesterol ester transport protein of the plasma. LBP may control the response to LPS under physiologic conditions by forming high-affinity complexes with LPS that bind to monocytes and macrophages, which then secrete tumor necrosis factor. The identification of this pathway for LPS-induced monocyte stimulation may aid in the development of treatments for diseases in which Gram-negative sepsis or endotoxemia are involved.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schumann, R R -- Leong, S R -- Flaggs, G W -- Gray, P W -- Wright, S D -- Mathison, J C -- Tobias, P S -- Ulevitch, R J -- AI 15136/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI 25563/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM 28485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 21;249(4975):1429-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Research Institute of Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2402637" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
