    Description: In the visual system, the establishment of the anteroposterior and dorsoventral axes in the retina and tectum during development is important for topographic retinotectal projection. We identified chick Ventroptin, an antagonist of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4), which is mainly expressed in the ventral retina, not only with a ventral high-dorsal low gradient but also with a nasal high-temporal low gradient at later stages. Misexpression of Ventroptin altered expression patterns of several topographic genes in the retina and projection of the retinal axons to the tectum along both axes. Thus, the topographic retinotectal projection appears to be specified by the double-gradient molecule Ventroptin along the two axes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sakuta, H -- Suzuki, R -- Takahashi, H -- Kato, A -- Shintani, T -- Iemura Si -- Yamamoto, T S -- Ueno, N -- Noda, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Jul 6;293(5527):111-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Molecular Neurobiology, National Institute for Basic Biology, The Graduate University for Advanced Studies, 38 Nishigonaka, Myodaiji-cho, Okazaki 444-8585, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11441185" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Proteasomes are the proteolytic complex responsible for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted antigen presentation. Interferon gamma treatment increases expression MHC-encoded LMP2 and LMP7 subunits of the proteasome and decreases expression of two proteasome subunits, named X and Y, which alters the proteolytic specificity of proteasomes. Molecular cloning of complementary DNAs encoding X and Y showed that their proteins are proteasomal subunits with high amino acid similarity to LMP7 and LMP2, respectively. Thus, interferon gamma may induce subunit replacements of X and Y by LMP7 and LMP2, respectively, producing proteasomes perhaps more appropriate for the immunological processing of endogenous antigens.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Akiyama, K -- Yokota, K -- Kagawa, S -- Shimbara, N -- Tamura, T -- Akioka, H -- Nothwang, H G -- Noda, C -- Tanaka, K -- Ichihara, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 26;265(5176):1231-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Urology, School of Medicine, University of Tokushima, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066462" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
