    Mitochondrial DNA stress primes the antiviral innate immune response (2015)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-02-03
    Description: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is normally present at thousands of copies per cell and is packaged into several hundred higher-order structures termed nucleoids. The abundant mtDNA-binding protein TFAM (transcription factor A, mitochondrial) regulates nucleoid architecture, abundance and segregation. Complete mtDNA depletion profoundly impairs oxidative phosphorylation, triggering calcium-dependent stress signalling and adaptive metabolic responses. However, the cellular responses to mtDNA instability, a physiologically relevant stress observed in many human diseases and ageing, remain poorly defined. Here we show that moderate mtDNA stress elicited by TFAM deficiency engages cytosolic antiviral signalling to enhance the expression of a subset of interferon-stimulated genes. Mechanistically, we find that aberrant mtDNA packaging promotes escape of mtDNA into the cytosol, where it engages the DNA sensor cGAS (also known as MB21D1) and promotes STING (also known as TMEM173)-IRF3-dependent signalling to elevate interferon-stimulated gene expression, potentiate type I interferon responses and confer broad viral resistance. Furthermore, we demonstrate that herpesviruses induce mtDNA stress, which enhances antiviral signalling and type I interferon responses during infection. Our results further demonstrate that mitochondria are central participants in innate immunity, identify mtDNA stress as a cell-intrinsic trigger of antiviral signalling and suggest that cellular monitoring of mtDNA homeostasis cooperates with canonical virus sensing mechanisms to fully engage antiviral innate immunity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4409480/" 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/PMC4409480/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉West, A Phillip -- Khoury-Hanold, William -- Staron, Matthew -- Tal, Michal C -- Pineda, Cristiana M -- Lang, Sabine M -- Bestwick, Megan -- Duguay, Brett A -- Raimundo, Nuno -- MacDuff, Donna A -- Kaech, Susan M -- Smiley, James R -- Means, Robert E -- Iwasaki, Akiko -- Shadel, Gerald S -- F31 AG039163/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- F32 DK091042/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- MOP37995/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- P01 ES011163/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG047632/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI054359/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI081884/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- T32 AI055403/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- UL1 TR000142/TR/NCATS NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2015 Apr 23;520(7548):553-7. doi: 10.1038/nature14156.

    Potentiation of bleomycin lethality by anticalmodulin drugs: a role for calmodulin in DNA repair (1984)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1984-06-22
    Description: Treatment of exponentially growing Chinese hamster ovary cells with bleomycin causes a dose-dependent decrease in cell survival due to DNA damage. This lethal effect can be potentiated by the addition of a nonlethal dose of the anticalmodulin drug N-(4-aminobutyl)-5-chloro-2-naphthalenesulfonamide ( W13 ) but not its inactive analog N-(4-aminobutyl)-2-naphthalenesulfonamide ( W12 ). By preventing the repair of damaged DNA, W13 also inhibits recovery from potentially lethal damage induced by bleomycin. These data suggest a role for calmodulin in the DNA repair pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chafouleas, J G -- Bolton, W E -- Means, A R -- RR-05425/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jun 22;224(4655):1346-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6203171" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Immobilization of proteins by reductive alkylation with hydrophobic aldehydes (1981)

    Notes: A new method is described for the immobilization of enzymes and other proteins onto hydrophobic gels. Trypsin, for example, can be quantitatively immobilized by reaction with sodium cyanoborohydride and dodecyladehyde-coated Octyl-Sepharose. Noncovalent interactions between the hydrophobic gel and approximately 10 resulting dodecylamino groups in the modified enzyme bind it very strongly but do not affect its ability to hydrolyze benzolarginine ethyl ester. The same procedure can also be used to immobilize E. Coli asparaginase and yeast alcohol dehydrogenase in high yield.

    Notes: Electron spin resonance (ESR) spin label studies have been carried out to examine the active site conformation of α-chymotrypsin before and after immobilization on two types of organic polymer supports: Amberlite XAD-8 and XAD-2. α-Chymotryspin was first chemically modified by reaction with methyl-4-phenylbutyrimidate and then inhibited by the active site spin label 4-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperdine-1-oxyl)-m-flurosulfonylbenzamide. In general, the ESR spectra of the active site lable revealed no significant changes in conformation for most of the enzyme before or after derivatization. On the other hand, two spectral subpopulations (A and B) of spin-labeled enzyme were characterized on the basis of their ESR spectra after immobilization on Amberlite XAD-8. Spectral subpopulation A (distinguished by a highly restrained spectrum) appeared to retain its active site structure and conformation and represented a large majority of the labeled chymotrypsin on the beads. Its presence correlated with the high activity and stability of phenylbutyramidinated chymotryspin on the Amberlite XAD-8 beads. Spectral subpopulation B (distinguished by a very weakly constrained spectrum) appeared to reflect loosely bound or denatured enzyme which was removable upon washing with 40% (v/v) ethylene glycol. Two methods for examining solvent accessibility to the active site lable of the kinetics of ascorbate reduction suggested that both spectral subpopulations had identical accessibilities to the bulk solvent. Paramagnetic broadening of the signal by K3Fe(CN)6 revealed differences in the spin-spin broadening of the A and B components but is deemed and inappropriate indicator of solvent accessibility.

    Design and operation of a pilot-plant fermentor for the continuous propagation of filamentous microorganisms (1962)

    Notes: A multi-stage pilot fermentor was designed which consists of nine stainless steel cylindrical compartments 2 ft. in length and 8 in. in diameter, joined end to end, giving a tube with a total length of 18 ft. The whole apparatus was mounted with its axis in a horizontal plane. Each compartment was sealed off from its neighboring compartment by a separatory plate having a 1-in. overflow hole in the upper half. Shafts 9½ feet long extended from each end of the fermentor through the compartments to the center. Agitation was provided by a multitude of stainless steel blades mounted at right angles to the shafts and spaced at regular intervals along the shafts. Stationary, stainless steel comb-shaped baffle plates were installed vertically at the bottom of each compartment to increase mixing efficiency. Constant leaving and re-entering of the fermentation liquor by the blades upon rotation imparts a shattering of the liquid surface thus preventing the accumulation of mycelial aggregates on the walls above the fermentation liquor. The mechanical performance of the described fermentor has proved excellent and several trial fermentations (antibiotic formation and steroid bioconversion) are described.

    Immobilization of proteins on organic polymer beads (1988)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: A new method is described for the immobilization of biologically active proteins onto several types of organic polymer beads. First, the soluble protein is modified by reaction with an excess of a hydrophobic imidoester, for example methyl 4-phenyl-butyrimidate, at ca. pH 9 and 0°. Excess imidoester and side products resulting from imidoester hydrolysis are separated from the hydrophobic protein derivative by exclusion chromatography or dialysis. A suspension of polymer beads (e.g. Amberlite XAD-7) is then added to a solution of the modified protein at room temperature or below and stirred gently for 1-2 h. The polymer beads are allowed to settle, separated from the solution by decantation or filtration, washed, and resuspended in an appropriate buffer. Quantitative adsorption of protein to the polymer beads is observed under such conditions. The synthesis of seven hydrophobic imidoesters and their use for the immobilization of trypsin onto several types of porous polymer beads is described. The immobilizations of trypsin, yeast alcohol dehydrogenase, and E. coli asparaginase by this procedure with high recoveries of catalytic activity, suggests that it will be applicable to a large number of biologically active proteins.
