    Description: A C. elegans neurosecretory signaling system regulates whether animals enter the reproductive life cycle or arrest development at the long-lived dauer diapause stage. daf-2, a key gene in the genetic pathway that mediates this endocrine signaling, encodes an insulin receptor family member. Decreases in DAF-2 signaling induce metabolic and developmental changes, as in mammalian metabolic control by the insulin receptor. Decreased DAF-2 signaling also causes an increase in life-span. Life-span regulation by insulin-like metabolic control is analogous to mammalian longevity enhancement induced by caloric restriction, suggesting a general link between metabolism, diapause, and longevity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kimura, K D -- Tissenbaum, H A -- Liu, Y -- Ruvkun, G -- R01AG14161/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Aug 15;277(5328):942-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA 02114, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9252323" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Brown algae (Phaeophyceae) are complex photosynthetic organisms with a very different evolutionary history to green plants, to which they are only distantly related. These seaweeds are the dominant species in rocky coastal ecosystems and they exhibit many interesting adaptations to these, often harsh, environments. Brown algae are also one of only a small number of eukaryotic lineages that have evolved complex multicellularity (Fig. 1). We report the 214 million base pair (Mbp) genome sequence of the filamentous seaweed Ectocarpus siliculosus (Dillwyn) Lyngbye, a model organism for brown algae, closely related to the kelps (Fig. 1). Genome features such as the presence of an extended set of light-harvesting and pigment biosynthesis genes and new metabolic processes such as halide metabolism help explain the ability of this organism to cope with the highly variable tidal environment. The evolution of multicellularity in this lineage is correlated with the presence of a rich array of signal transduction genes. Of particular interest is the presence of a family of receptor kinases, as the independent evolution of related molecules has been linked with the emergence of multicellularity in both the animal and green plant lineages. The Ectocarpus genome sequence represents an important step towards developing this organism as a model species, providing the possibility to combine genomic and genetic approaches to explore these and other aspects of brown algal biology further.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cock, J Mark -- Sterck, Lieven -- Rouze, Pierre -- Scornet, Delphine -- Allen, Andrew E -- Amoutzias, Grigoris -- Anthouard, Veronique -- Artiguenave, Francois -- Aury, Jean-Marc -- Badger, Jonathan H -- Beszteri, Bank -- Billiau, Kenny -- Bonnet, Eric -- Bothwell, John H -- Bowler, Chris -- Boyen, Catherine -- Brownlee, Colin -- Carrano, Carl J -- Charrier, Benedicte -- Cho, Ga Youn -- Coelho, Susana M -- Collen, Jonas -- Corre, Erwan -- Da Silva, Corinne -- Delage, Ludovic -- Delaroque, Nicolas -- Dittami, Simon M -- Doulbeau, Sylvie -- Elias, Marek -- Farnham, Garry -- Gachon, Claire M M -- Gschloessl, Bernhard -- Heesch, Svenja -- Jabbari, Kamel -- Jubin, Claire -- Kawai, Hiroshi -- Kimura, Kei -- Kloareg, Bernard -- Kupper, Frithjof C -- Lang, Daniel -- Le Bail, Aude -- Leblanc, Catherine -- Lerouge, Patrice -- Lohr, Martin -- Lopez, Pascal J -- Martens, Cindy -- Maumus, Florian -- Michel, Gurvan -- Miranda-Saavedra, Diego -- Morales, Julia -- Moreau, Herve -- Motomura, Taizo -- Nagasato, Chikako -- Napoli, Carolyn A -- Nelson, David R -- Nyvall-Collen, Pi -- Peters, Akira F -- Pommier, Cyril -- Potin, Philippe -- Poulain, Julie -- Quesneville, Hadi -- Read, Betsy -- Rensing, Stefan A -- Ritter, Andres -- Rousvoal, Sylvie -- Samanta, Manoj -- Samson, Gaelle -- Schroeder, Declan C -- Segurens, Beatrice -- Strittmatter, Martina -- Tonon, Thierry -- Tregear, James W -- Valentin, Klaus -- von Dassow, Peter -- Yamagishi, Takahiro -- Van de Peer, Yves -- Wincker, Patrick -- England -- Nature. 2010 Jun 3;465(7298):617-21. doi: 10.1038/nature09016.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉UPMC Universite Paris 6, The Marine Plants and Biomolecules Laboratory, UMR 7139, Station Biologique de Roscoff, Place Georges Teissier, BP74, 29682 Roscoff Cedex, France. cock@sb-roscoff.fr〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20520714" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Maturation of precursor transfer RNA (pre-tRNA) includes excision of the 5' leader and 3' trailer sequences, removal of introns and addition of the CCA terminus. Nucleotide modifications are incorporated at different stages of tRNA processing, after the RNA molecule adopts the proper conformation. In bacteria, tRNA(Ile2) lysidine synthetase (TilS) modifies cytidine into lysidine (L; 2-lysyl-cytidine) at the first anticodon of tRNA(Ile2) (refs 4-9). This modification switches tRNA(Ile2) from a methionine-specific to an isoleucine-specific tRNA. However, the aminoacylation of tRNA(Ile2) by methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetRS), before the modification by TilS, might lead to the misincorporation of methionine in response to isoleucine codons. The mechanism used by bacteria to avoid this pitfall is unknown. Here we show that the TilS enzyme specifically recognizes and modifies tRNA(Ile2) in its precursor form, thereby avoiding translation errors. We identified the lysidine modification in pre-tRNA(Ile2) isolated from RNase-E-deficient Escherichia coli and did not detect mature tRNA(Ile2) lacking this modification. Our kinetic analyses revealed that TilS can modify both types of RNA molecule with comparable efficiencies. X-ray crystallography and mutational analyses revealed that TilS specifically recognizes the entire L-shape structure in pre-tRNA(Ile2) through extensive interactions coupled with sequential domain movements. Our results demonstrate how TilS prevents the recognition of tRNA(Ile2) by MetRS and achieves high specificity for its substrate. These two key points form the basis for maintaining the fidelity of isoleucine codon translation in bacteria. Our findings also provide a rationale for the necessity of incorporating specific modifications at the precursor level during tRNA biogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nakanishi, Kotaro -- Bonnefond, Luc -- Kimura, Satoshi -- Suzuki, Tsutomu -- Ishitani, Ryuichiro -- Nureki, Osamu -- England -- Nature. 2009 Oct 22;461(7267):1144-8. doi: 10.1038/nature08474.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Information, Graduate School of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Yokohama, Kanagawa 225-8501, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19847269" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH), a brain secretory polypeptide of insects, stimulates the prothoracic glands to produce and release ecdysone, the steroid essential to insect development. The complementary DNAs encoding PTTH of the silkmoth Bombyx mori were cloned and characterized, and the complete amino acid sequence was deduced. The data indicated that PTTH is first synthesized as a 224-amino acid polypeptide precursor containing three proteolytic cleavage signals. The carboxyl-terminal component (109 amino acids) that follows the last cleavage signal represents one PTTH subunit. Two PTTH subunits are linked together by disulfide bonds, before or after cleavage from prepro-PTTH, to form a homodimeric PTTH. When introduced into Escherichia coli cells, the complementary DNA directed the expression of an active substance that was functionally indistinguishable from natural PTTH. In situ hybridization showed the localization of the prepro-PTTH mRNA to two dorsolateral neurosecretory cells of the Bombyx brain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kawakami, A -- Kataoka, H -- Oka, T -- Mizoguchi, A -- Kimura-Kawakami, M -- Adachi, T -- Iwami, M -- Nagasawa, H -- Suzuki, A -- Ishizaki, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 16;247(4948):1333-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, School of Science, Nagoya University, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2315701" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A hallmark of mitosis is the appearance of high levels of histone phosphorylation, yet the roles of these modifications remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that histone H3 phosphorylated at threonine 3 is directly recognized by an evolutionarily conserved binding pocket in the BIR domain of Survivin, which is a member of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC). This binding mediates recruitment of the CPC to chromosomes and the resulting activation of its kinase subunit Aurora B. Consistently, modulation of the kinase activity of Haspin, which phosphorylates H3T3, leads to defects in the Aurora B-dependent processes of spindle assembly and inhibition of nuclear reformation. These findings establish a direct cellular role for mitotic histone H3T3 phosphorylation, which is read and translated by the CPC to ensure accurate cell division.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3177562/" 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/PMC3177562/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kelly, Alexander E -- Ghenoiu, Cristina -- Xue, John Z -- Zierhut, Christian -- Kimura, Hiroshi -- Funabiki, Hironori -- GM075249/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-01/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-05/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM075249-05S1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Oct 8;330(6001):235-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1189505.

    Description: 13S condensin is a multisubunit protein complex essential for mitotic chromosome condensation in Xenopus egg extracts. Purified 13S condensin introduces positive supercoils into DNA in the presence of topoisomerase I and adenosine triphosphate in vitro. The supercoiling activity of 13Scondensin was regulated by mitosis-specific phosphorylation. Immunodepletion, in vitro phosphorylation, and peptide-mapping experiments indicated that Cdc2 is likely to be the kinase that phosphorylates and activates 13S condensin. Multiple Cdc2 phosphorylation sites are clustered in the carboxyl-terminal domain of the XCAP-D2 (Xenopus chromosome-associated polypeptide D2) subunit. These results suggest that phosphorylation of 13Scondensin by Cdc2 may trigger mitotic chromosome condensation in vitro.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kimura, K -- Hirano, M -- Kobayashi, R -- Hirano, T -- CA45508/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM53926/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Oct 16;282(5388):487-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Post Office Box 100, 1 Bungtown Road, Cold Spring Harbor, NY 11724, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9774278" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In eukaryotes, accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis is coordinated by kinetochores, which are unique chromosomal sites for microtubule attachment. Centromeres specify the kinetochore formation sites on individual chromosomes, and are epigenetically marked by the assembly of nucleosomes containing the centromere-specific histone H3 variant, CENP-A. Although the underlying mechanism is unclear, centromere inheritance is probably dictated by the architecture of the centromeric nucleosome. Here we report the crystal structure of the human centromeric nucleosome containing CENP-A and its cognate alpha-satellite DNA derivative (147 base pairs). In the human CENP-A nucleosome, the DNA is wrapped around the histone octamer, consisting of two each of histones H2A, H2B, H4 and CENP-A, in a left-handed orientation. However, unlike the canonical H3 nucleosome, only the central 121 base pairs of the DNA are visible. The thirteen base pairs from both ends of the DNA are invisible in the crystal structure, and the alphaN helix of CENP-A is shorter than that of H3, which is known to be important for the orientation of the DNA ends in the canonical H3 nucleosome. A structural comparison of the CENP-A and H3 nucleosomes revealed that CENP-A contains two extra amino acid residues (Arg 80 and Gly 81) in the loop 1 region, which is completely exposed to the solvent. Mutations of the CENP-A loop 1 residues reduced CENP-A retention at the centromeres in human cells. Therefore, the CENP-A loop 1 may function in stabilizing the centromeric chromatin containing CENP-A, possibly by providing a binding site for trans-acting factors. The structure provides the first atomic-resolution picture of the centromere-specific nucleosome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tachiwana, Hiroaki -- Kagawa, Wataru -- Shiga, Tatsuya -- Osakabe, Akihisa -- Miya, Yuta -- Saito, Kengo -- Hayashi-Takanaka, Yoko -- Oda, Takashi -- Sato, Mamoru -- Park, Sam-Yong -- Kimura, Hiroshi -- Kurumizaka, Hitoshi -- England -- Nature. 2011 Jul 10;476(7359):232-5. doi: 10.1038/nature10258.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Structural Biology, Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering, Waseda University, 2-2 Wakamatsu-cho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 162-8480, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21743476" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Adiponectin stimulation of its receptors, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, increases the activities of 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), respectively, thereby contributing to healthy longevity as key anti-diabetic molecules. AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 were predicted to contain seven transmembrane helices with the opposite topology to G-protein-coupled receptors. Here we report the crystal structures of human AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 at 2.9 and 2.4 A resolution, respectively, which represent a novel class of receptor structure. The seven-transmembrane helices, conformationally distinct from those of G-protein-coupled receptors, enclose a large cavity where three conserved histidine residues coordinate a zinc ion. The zinc-binding structure may have a role in the adiponectin-stimulated AMPK phosphorylation and UCP2 upregulation. Adiponectin may broadly interact with the extracellular face, rather than the carboxy-terminal tail, of the receptors. The present information will facilitate the understanding of novel structure-function relationships and the development and optimization of AdipoR agonists for the treatment of obesity-related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4477036/" 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/PMC4477036/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanabe, Hiroaki -- Fujii, Yoshifumi -- Okada-Iwabu, Miki -- Iwabu, Masato -- Nakamura, Yoshihiro -- Hosaka, Toshiaki -- Motoyama, Kanna -- Ikeda, Mariko -- Wakiyama, Motoaki -- Terada, Takaho -- Ohsawa, Noboru -- Hato, Masakatsu -- Ogasawara, Satoshi -- Hino, Tomoya -- Murata, Takeshi -- Iwata, So -- Hirata, Kunio -- Kawano, Yoshiaki -- Yamamoto, Masaki -- Kimura-Someya, Tomomi -- Shirouzu, Mikako -- Yamauchi, Toshimasa -- Kadowaki, Takashi -- Yokoyama, Shigeyuki -- 062164/Z/00/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 089809/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- BB/G02325/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- BB/G023425/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2015 Apr 16;520(7547):312-6. doi: 10.1038/nature14301.

    Description: The small guanosine triphosphatase Rho is implicated in myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation, which results in contraction of smooth muscle and interaction of actin and myosin in nonmuscle cells. The guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-bound, active form of RhoA (GTP.RhoA) specifically interacted with the myosin-binding subunit (MBS) of myosin phosphatase, which regulates the extent of phosphorylation of MLC. Rho-associated kinase (Rho-kinase), which is activated by GTP.RhoA, phosphorylated MBS and consequently inactivated myosin phosphatase. Overexpression of RhoA or activated RhoA in NIH 3T3 cells increased phosphorylation of MBS and MLC. Thus, Rho appears to inhibit myosin phosphatase through the action of Rho-kinase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kimura, K -- Ito, M -- Amano, M -- Chihara, K -- Fukata, Y -- Nakafuku, M -- Yamamori, B -- Feng, J -- Nakano, T -- Okawa, K -- Iwamatsu, A -- Kaibuchi, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 12;273(5272):245-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Signal Transduction, Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Ikoma 630-01, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662509" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The substrate-specific protein chaperone Hsp90 (heat shock protein 90) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae functions in diverse signal transduction pathways. A mutation in YDJ1, a member of the DnaJ chaperone family, was recovered in a synthetic-lethal screen with Hsp90 mutants. In an otherwise wild-type background, the ydj1 mutation exerted strong and specific effects on three Hsp90 substrates, derepressing two (the estrogen and glucocorticoid receptors) and reducing the function of the third (the tyrosine kinase p60v-src). Analysis of one of these substrates, the glucocorticoid receptor, indicated that Ydj1 exerts its effects through physical interaction with Hsp90 substrates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kimura, Y -- Yahara, I -- Lindquist, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Jun 2;268(5215):1362-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics and Cell Biology, University of Chicago, IL 60637, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7761857" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
