    Tissue-specific regulation of retinal and pituitary precursor cell proliferation (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-07-20
    Description: Mammalian organogenesis requires the expansion of pluripotent precursor cells before the subsequent determination of specific cell types, but the tissue-specific molecular mechanisms that regulate the initial expansion of primordial cells remain poorly defined. We have genetically established that Six6 homeodomain factor, acting as a strong tissue-specific repressor, regulates early progenitor cell proliferation during mammalian retinogenesis and pituitary development. Six6, in association with Dach corepressors, regulates proliferation by directly repressing cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, including the p27Kip1 promoter. These data reveal a molecular mechanism by which a tissue-specific transcriptional repressor-corepressor complex can provide an organ-specific strategy for physiological expansion of precursor populations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, Xue -- Perissi, Valentina -- Liu, Forrest -- Rose, David W -- Rosenfeld, Michael G -- 484/B/Telethon/Italy -- 5F32DK09814/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Aug 16;297(5584):1180-3.

    Induction and suppression of RNA silencing by an animal virus (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-05-23
    Description: RNA silencing is a sequence-specific RNA degradation mechanism that is operational in plants and animals. Here, we show that flock house virus (FHV) is both an initiator and a target of RNA silencing in Drosophila host cells and that FHV infection requires suppression of RNA silencing by an FHV-encoded protein, B2. These findings establish RNA silencing as an adaptive antiviral defense in animal cells. B2 also inhibits RNA silencing in transgenic plants, providing evidence for a conserved RNA silencing pathway in the plant and animal kingdoms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, Hongwei -- Li, Wan Xiang -- Ding, Shou Wei -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 May 17;296(5571):1319-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant Pathology and Center for Plant Cell Biology, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12016316" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of the polymerase PA(C)-PB1(N) complex from an avian influenza H5N1 virus (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-07-11
    Description: The recent emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza A virus strains with subtype H5N1 pose a global threat to human health. Elucidation of the underlying mechanisms of viral replication is critical for development of anti-influenza virus drugs. The influenza RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) heterotrimer has crucial roles in viral RNA replication and transcription. It contains three proteins: PA, PB1 and PB2. PB1 harbours polymerase and endonuclease activities and PB2 is responsible for cap binding; PA is implicated in RNA replication and proteolytic activity, although its function is less clearly defined. Here we report the 2.9 angstrom structure of avian H5N1 influenza A virus PA (PA(C), residues 257-716) in complex with the PA-binding region of PB1 (PB1(N), residues 1-25). PA(C) has a fold resembling a dragon's head with PB1(N) clamped into its open 'jaws'. PB1(N) is a known inhibitor that blocks assembly of the polymerase heterotrimer and abolishes viral replication. Our structure provides details for the binding of PB1(N) to PA(C) at the atomic level, demonstrating a potential target for novel anti-influenza therapeutics. We also discuss a potential nucleotide binding site and the roles of some known residues involved in polymerase activity. Furthermore, to explore the role of PA in viral replication and transcription, we propose a model for the influenza RdRp heterotrimer by comparing PA(C) with the lambda3 reovirus polymerase structure, and docking the PA(C) structure into an available low resolution electron microscopy map.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉He, Xiaojing -- Zhou, Jie -- Bartlam, Mark -- Zhang, Rongguang -- Ma, Jianyuan -- Lou, Zhiyong -- Li, Xuemei -- Li, Jingjing -- Joachimiak, Andrzej -- Zeng, Zonghao -- Ge, Ruowen -- Rao, Zihe -- Liu, Yingfang -- England -- Nature. 2008 Aug 28;454(7208):1123-6. doi: 10.1038/nature07120.

    Crystal structure of an avian influenza polymerase PA(N) reveals an endonuclease active site (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-02-06
    Description: The heterotrimeric influenza virus polymerase, containing the PA, PB1 and PB2 proteins, catalyses viral RNA replication and transcription in the nucleus of infected cells. PB1 holds the polymerase active site and reportedly harbours endonuclease activity, whereas PB2 is responsible for cap binding. The PA amino terminus is understood to be the major functional part of the PA protein and has been implicated in several roles, including endonuclease and protease activities as well as viral RNA/complementary RNA promoter binding. Here we report the 2.2 angstrom (A) crystal structure of the N-terminal 197 residues of PA, termed PA(N), from an avian influenza H5N1 virus. The PA(N) structure has an alpha/beta architecture and reveals a bound magnesium ion coordinated by a motif similar to the (P)DX(N)(D/E)XK motif characteristic of many endonucleases. Structural comparisons and mutagenesis analysis of the motif identified in PA(N) provide further evidence that PA(N) holds an endonuclease active site. Furthermore, functional analysis with in vivo ribonucleoprotein reconstitution and direct in vitro endonuclease assays strongly suggest that PA(N) holds the endonuclease active site and has critical roles in endonuclease activity of the influenza virus polymerase, rather than PB1. The high conservation of this endonuclease active site among influenza strains indicates that PA(N) is an important target for the design of new anti-influenza therapeutics.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yuan, Puwei -- Bartlam, Mark -- Lou, Zhiyong -- Chen, Shoudeng -- Zhou, Jie -- He, Xiaojing -- Lv, Zongyang -- Ge, Ruowen -- Li, Xuemei -- Deng, Tao -- Fodor, Ervin -- Rao, Zihe -- Liu, Yingfang -- G0700848/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2009 Apr 16;458(7240):909-13. doi: 10.1038/nature07720.

    Structure and mechanism of an amino acid antiporter (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-05-30
    Description: Virulent enteric pathogens such as Escherichia coli strain O157:H7 rely on acid-resistance (AR) systems to survive the acidic environment in the stomach. A major component of AR is an arginine-dependent arginine:agmatine antiporter that expels intracellular protons. Here, we report the crystal structure of AdiC, the arginine:agmatine antiporter from E. coli O157:H7 and a member of the amino acid/polyamine/organocation (APC) superfamily of transporters at 3.6 A resolution. The overall fold is similar to that of several Na+-coupled symporters. AdiC contains 12 transmembrane segments, forms a homodimer, and exists in an outward-facing, open conformation in the crystals. A conserved, acidic pocket opens to the periplasm. Structural and biochemical analysis reveals the essential ligand-binding residues, defines the transport route, and suggests a conserved mechanism for the antiporter activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gao, Xiang -- Lu, Feiran -- Zhou, Lijun -- Dang, Shangyu -- Sun, Linfeng -- Li, Xiaochun -- Wang, Jiawei -- Shi, Yigong -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 19;324(5934):1565-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1173654.

    GSK3-TIP60-ULK1 signaling pathway links growth factor deprivation to autophagy (2012)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-04-28
    Description: In metazoans, cells depend on extracellular growth factors for energy homeostasis. We found that glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3), when deinhibited by default in cells deprived of growth factors, activates acetyltransferase TIP60 through phosphorylating TIP60-Ser(86), which directly acetylates and stimulates the protein kinase ULK1, which is required for autophagy. Cells engineered to express TIP60(S86A) that cannot be phosphorylated by GSK3 could not undergo serum deprivation-induced autophagy. An acetylation-defective mutant of ULK1 failed to rescue autophagy in ULK1(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Cells used signaling from GSK3 to TIP60 and ULK1 to regulate autophagy when deprived of serum but not glucose. These findings uncover an activating pathway that integrates protein phosphorylation and acetylation to connect growth factor deprivation to autophagy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lin, Shu-Yong -- Li, Terytty Yang -- Liu, Qing -- Zhang, Cixiong -- Li, Xiaotong -- Chen, Yan -- Zhang, Shi-Meng -- Lian, Guili -- Liu, Qi -- Ruan, Ka -- Wang, Zhen -- Zhang, Chen-Song -- Chien, Kun-Yi -- Wu, Jiawei -- Li, Qinxi -- Han, Jiahuai -- Lin, Sheng-Cai -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Apr 27;336(6080):477-81. doi: 10.1126/science.1217032.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉State Key Laboratory of Cellular Stress Biology, School of Life Sciences, Xiamen University, Fujian, China.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22539723" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    S-nitrosylation of parkin regulates ubiquitination and compromises parkin's protective function (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-04-24
    Description: Parkin is an E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in the ubiquitination of proteins that are important in the survival of dopamine neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD). We show that parkin is S-nitrosylated in vitro, as well as in vivo in a mouse model of PD and in brains of patients with PD and diffuse Lewy body disease. Moreover, S-nitrosylation inhibits parkin's ubiquitin E3 ligase activity and its protective function. The inhibition of parkin's ubiquitin E3 ligase activity by S-nitrosylation could contribute to the degenerative process in these disorders by impairing the ubiquitination of parkin substrates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chung, Kenny K K -- Thomas, Bobby -- Li, Xiaojie -- Pletnikova, Olga -- Troncoso, Juan C -- Marsh, Laura -- Dawson, Valina L -- Dawson, Ted M -- NS38377/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 May 28;304(5675):1328-31.

    RNA interference directs innate immunity against viruses in adult Drosophila (2006)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-03-25
    Description: Innate immunity against bacterial and fungal pathogens is mediated by Toll and immune deficiency (Imd) pathways, but little is known about the antiviral response in Drosophila. Here, we demonstrate that an RNA interference pathway protects adult flies from infection by two evolutionarily diverse viruses. Our work also describes a molecular framework for the viral immunity, in which viral double-stranded RNA produced during infection acts as the pathogen trigger whereas Drosophila Dicer-2 and Argonaute-2 act as host sensor and effector, respectively. These findings establish a Drosophila model for studying the innate immunity against viruses in animals.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1509097/" 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/PMC1509097/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, Xiao-Hong -- Aliyari, Roghiyh -- Li, Wan-Xiang -- Li, Hong-Wei -- Kim, Kevin -- Carthew, Richard -- Atkinson, Peter -- Ding, Shou-Wei -- AI052447/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI052447/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM068743/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Apr 21;312(5772):452-4.

    Reconfiguration of the proteasome during chaperone-mediated assembly (2013)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-05-07
    Description: The proteasomal ATPase ring, comprising Rpt1-Rpt6, associates with the heptameric alpha-ring of the proteasome core particle (CP) in the mature proteasome, with the Rpt carboxy-terminal tails inserting into pockets of the alpha-ring. Rpt ring assembly is mediated by four chaperones, each binding a distinct Rpt subunit. Here we report that the base subassembly of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteasome, which includes the Rpt ring, forms a high-affinity complex with the CP. This complex is subject to active dissociation by the chaperones Hsm3, Nas6 and Rpn14. Chaperone-mediated dissociation was abrogated by a non-hydrolysable ATP analogue, indicating that chaperone action is coupled to nucleotide hydrolysis by the Rpt ring. Unexpectedly, synthetic Rpt tail peptides bound alpha-pockets with poor specificity, except for Rpt6, which uniquely bound the alpha2/alpha3-pocket. Although the Rpt6 tail is not visualized within an alpha-pocket in mature proteasomes, it inserts into the alpha2/alpha3-pocket in the base-CP complex and is important for complex formation. Thus, the Rpt-CP interface is reconfigured when the lid complex joins the nascent proteasome to form the mature holoenzyme.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3687086/" 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/PMC3687086/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Park, Soyeon -- Li, Xueming -- Kim, Ho Min -- Singh, Chingakham Ranjit -- Tian, Geng -- Hoyt, Martin A -- Lovell, Scott -- Battaile, Kevin P -- Zolkiewski, Michal -- Coffino, Philip -- Roelofs, Jeroen -- Cheng, Yifan -- Finley, Daniel -- 1S10RR026814-01/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- 5P20RR017708/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- 8 P20 GM103420/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P20 GM103418/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P20 RR016475/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- P20 RR017708/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM082893/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01GM045335/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01GM082893/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37GM043601/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- S10 RR026814/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 May 23;497(7450):512-6. doi: 10.1038/nature12123.

    Structure of a presenilin family intramembrane aspartate protease (2012)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-12-21
    Description: Presenilin and signal peptide peptidase (SPP) are intramembrane aspartyl proteases that regulate important biological functions in eukaryotes. Mechanistic understanding of presenilin and SPP has been hampered by lack of relevant structural information. Here we report the crystal structure of a presenilin/SPP homologue (PSH) from the archaeon Methanoculleus marisnigri JR1. The protease, comprising nine transmembrane segments (TMs), adopts a previously unreported protein fold. The amino-terminal domain, consisting of TM1-6, forms a horseshoe-shaped structure, surrounding TM7-9 of the carboxy-terminal domain. The two catalytic aspartate residues are located on the cytoplasmic side of TM6 and TM7, spatially close to each other and approximately 8 A into the lipid membrane surface. Water molecules gain constant access to the catalytic aspartates through a large cavity between the amino- and carboxy-terminal domains. Structural analysis reveals insights into the presenilin/SPP family of intramembrane proteases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, Xiaochun -- Dang, Shangyu -- Yan, Chuangye -- Gong, Xinqi -- Wang, Jiawei -- Shi, Yigong -- England -- Nature. 2013 Jan 3;493(7430):56-61. doi: 10.1038/nature11801.
