    Modulation of epithelial cell growth by intraepithelial gamma delta T cells (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-18
    Description: The role played in immune surveillance by gamma delta T cells residing in various epithelia has not been clear. It is shown here that activated gamma delta T cells obtained from skin and intestine express the epithelial cell mitogen keratinocyte growth factor (KGF). In contrast, intraepithelial alpha beta T cells, as well as all lymphoid alpha beta and gamma delta T cell populations tested, did not produce KGF or promote the growth of cultured epithelial cells. These results suggest that intraepithelial gamma delta T cells function in surveillance and in repair of damaged epithelial tissues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boismenu, R -- Havran, W L -- AI32751/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 18;266(5188):1253-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973709" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Padlock probes: circularizing oligonucleotides for localized DNA detection (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-30
    Description: Nucleotide sequence information derived from DNA segments of the human and other genomes is accumulating rapidly. However, it frequently proves difficult to use such short DNA segments to identify clones in genomic libraries or fragments in blots of the whole genome or for in situ analysis of chromosomes. Oligonucleotide probes, consisting of two target-complementary segments, connected by a linker sequence, were designed. Upon recognition of the specific nucleic acid molecule the ends of the probes were joined through the action of a ligase, creating circular DNA molecules catenated to the target sequence. These probes thus provide highly specific detection with minimal background.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nilsson, M -- Malmgren, H -- Samiotaki, M -- Kwiatkowski, M -- Chowdhary, B P -- Landegren, U -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 30;265(5181):2085-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Beijer Laboratory, Department of Medical Genetics, Biomedical Center, Uppsala, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7522346" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Reversion of the mouse pink-eyed unstable mutation induced by low doses of x-rays (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-02
    Description: Deletions and other genome rearrangements can be caused by radiation and are associated with carcinogenesis and inheritable diseases. The pink-eyed unstable (p(un)) mutation in the mouse is caused by a gene duplication and reverts to wild type by deletion of one copy. Reversion events in the mouse embryo were detected as black spots on the fur of the animals or microscopically as partially black hair in a background of colorless hair. The frequency of partially black hair was increased by x-rays at very low doses. A linear dose-response relation was found between 1 and 100 centigray.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schiestl, R H -- Khogali, F -- Carls, N -- ES06593/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 2;266(5190):1573-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cellular Toxicology, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7985029" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Digenic retinitis pigmentosa due to mutations at the unlinked peripherin/RDS and ROM1 loci (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-06-10
    Description: In spite of recent advances in identifying genes causing monogenic human disease, very little is known about the genes involved in polygenic disease. Three families were identified with mutations in the unlinked photoreceptor-specific genes ROM1 and peripherin/RDS, in which only double heterozygotes develop retinitis pigmentosa (RP). These findings indicate that the allelic and nonallelic heterogeneity known to be a feature of monogenic RP is complicated further by interactions between unlinked mutations causing digenic RP. Recognition of the inheritance pattern exemplified by these three families might facilitate the identification of other examples of digenic inheritance in human disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kajiwara, K -- Berson, E L -- Dryja, T P -- EY00169/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- EY08683/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1604-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Berman-Gund Laboratory for the Study of Retinal Degenerations, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston 02114.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8202715" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Kinetics of molecular chaperone action (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-02-18
    Description: Molecular chaperones of the Hsp70 type transiently sequester unfolded segments of proteins and promote their correct folding. Target peptides were labeled with an environmentally sensitive fluorophore so that their binding to the molecular chaperone DnaK of Escherichia coli could be followed in real time. The two-step process was characterized by relaxation times of 27 seconds and 200 seconds with 2 microM DnaK and 0.1 microM ligand at 25 degrees C. In the presence of adenosine triphosphate, the formation of the complex was greatly accelerated and appeared to be a single-exponential process with a relaxation time of 0.4 second. The binding-release cycle of DnaK thus occurs in the time range of polypeptide chain elongation and folding and is too fast to be stoichiometrically coupled to the adenosine triphosphatase activity of the chaperone (turnover number, 0.13 per minute at 30 degrees C).〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schmid, D -- Baici, A -- Gehring, H -- Christen, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Feb 18;263(5149):971-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biochemisches Institut, Universitat Zurich, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8310296" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Gem: an induced, immediate early protein belonging to the Ras family (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-08
    Description: A gene encoding a 35-kilodalton guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein, Gem, was cloned from mitogen-induced human peripheral blood T cells. Gem and Rad, the product of a gene overexpressed in skeletal muscle in individuals with Type II diabetes, constitute a new family of Ras-related GTP-binding proteins. The distinct structural features of this family include the G3 GTP-binding motif, extensive amino- and carboxyl-terminal extensions beyond the Ras-related domain, and a motif that determines membrane association. Gem was transiently expressed in human peripheral blood T cells in response to mitogenic stimulation; the protein was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues and localized to the cytosolic face of the plasma membrane. Deregulated Gem expression prevented proliferation of normal and transformed 3T3 cells. These results suggest that Gem is a regulatory protein, possibly participating in receptor-mediated signal transduction at the plasma membrane.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Maguire, J -- Santoro, T -- Jensen, P -- Siebenlist, U -- Yewdell, J -- Kelly, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 8;265(5169):241-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Pathology, 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/7912851" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Requirement of human renal water channel aquaporin-2 for vasopressin-dependent concentration of urine (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-04-01
    Description: Concentration of urine in mammals is regulated by the antidiuretic hormone vasopressin. Binding of vasopressin to its V2 receptor leads to the insertion of water channels in apical membranes of principal cells in collecting ducts. In nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), the kidney fails to concentrate urine in response to vasopressin. A male patient with an autosomal recessive form of NDI was found to be a compound heterozygote for two mutations in the gene encoding aquaporin-2, a water channel. Functional expression studies in Xenopus oocytes revealed that each mutation resulted in nonfunctional water channel proteins. Thus, aquaporin-2 is essential for vasopressin-dependent concentration of urine.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Deen, P M -- Verdijk, M A -- Knoers, N V -- Wieringa, B -- Monnens, L A -- van Os, C H -- van Oost, B A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 1;264(5155):92-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Physiology, University of Nijmegen, Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8140421" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Reconstitution of an operational MHC class II compartment in nonantigen-presenting cells (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-02
    Description: Professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) have a distinct compartment in which class II molecules are proposed to acquire antigenic peptides. Genetic evidence suggests that human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DM, an unusual class II molecule, participates in this process. Peptide acquisition was reconstituted in nonprofessional APCs by transfection of class II, invariant chain (li), and H-2M, the murine equivalent of DM. The H-2M heterodimer appeared in an endosomal compartment, not at the cell surface, and the localization was independent of li. The data presented show that H-2M, class II, and li are the minimally required components for efficient formation of stable class II-peptide complexes, and thus for a functional class II compartment.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Karlsson, L -- Peleraux, A -- Lindstedt, R -- Liljedahl, M -- Peterson, P A -- AI-26610/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 2;266(5190):1569-73.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉R.

    Prevention of lipopolysaccharide-induced lethal toxicity by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Publication Date: 1994-05-27
    Description: Septic shock results from excessive stimulation of the host immune system, especially macrophages, by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or endotoxin, which resides on the outer membrane of bacteria. Protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors of the tyrphostin AG 126 family protect mice against LPS-induced lethal toxicity. The protection correlates with the ability of these agents to block LPS-induced production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and nitric oxide in macrophages as well as LPS-induced production of TNF-alpha in vivo. Furthermore, this inhibitory effect correlated with the potency of AG 126 to block LPS-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of a p42MAPK protein substrate in the murine macrophage.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Novogrodsky, A -- Vanichkin, A -- Patya, M -- Gazit, A -- Osherov, N -- Levitzki, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 27;264(5163):1319-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Felsenstein Medical Research Center, Petach Tikva, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8191285" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A cytokine was identified that stimulated the proliferation of T lymphocytes, and a complementary DNA clone encoding this new T cell growth factor was isolated. The cytokine, designated interleukin-15 (IL-15), is produced by a wide variety of cells and tissues and shares many biological properties with IL-2. Monoclonal antibodies to the beta chain of the IL-2 receptor inhibited the biological activity of IL-15, and IL-15 competed for binding with IL-2, indicating that IL-15 uses components of the IL-2 receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Grabstein, K H -- Eisenman, J -- Shanebeck, K -- Rauch, C -- Srinivasan, S -- Fung, V -- Beers, C -- Richardson, J -- Schoenborn, M A -- Ahdieh, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 13;264(5161):965-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Immunex Research and Development Corporation, Seattle, WA 98101.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8178155" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Activation of the myogenic lineage by MEF2A, a factor that induces and cooperates with MyoD (1994)

    Publication Date: 1994-11-18
    Description: Muscle enhancer factor-2A (MEF2A), a member of the MADS family, induced myogenic development when ectopically expressed in clones of nonmuscle cells of human clones, a function previously limited to the muscle basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins. During myogenesis, MEF2A and bHLH proteins cooperatively activate skeletal muscle genes and physically interact through the MADS domain of MEF2A and the three myogenic amino acids of the muscle bHLH proteins. Thus, skeletal myogenesis is mediated by two distinct families of mutually inducible and interactive muscle transcription factors, either of which can initiate the developmental cascade.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kaushal, S -- Schneider, J W -- Nadal-Ginard, B -- Mahdavi, V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 18;266(5188):1236-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cardiology, Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973707" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Recombination between viral RNA and transgenic plant transcripts (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-11
    Description: Transformed plants expressing the 3' two-thirds of the cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) capsid gene were inoculated with a CCMV deletion mutant lacking the 3' one-third of the capsid gene. Although the deletion inoculum replicates in inoculated cells, systemic infections occur only if recombination restores a functional capsid gene. Four of 125 inoculated transgenic plants, representing three different transgenic lines, became systemically infected. Analysis of viral RNA confirmed that RNA recombination had united the transgenic messenger RNA and the challenging virus through aberrant homologous recombination.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Greene, A E -- Allison, R F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 11;263(5152):1423-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, Michigan State University, East Lansing 48824-1312.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8128222" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Blockage of NF-kappa B signaling by selective ablation of an mRNA target by 2-5A antisense chimeras (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-05
    Description: Activation of 2-5A-dependent ribonuclease by 5'-phosphorylated, 2',5'-linked oligoadenylates, known as 2-5A, is one pathway of interferon action. Unaided uptake into HeLa cells of 2-5A linked to an antisense oligonucleotide resulted in the selective ablation of messenger RNA for the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-dependent protein kinase PKR. Similarly, purified, recombinant human 2-5A-dependent ribonuclease was induced to selectively cleave PKR messenger RNA. Cells depleted of PKR activity were unresponsive to activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) by the dsRNA poly(I):poly(C), which provides direct evidence that PKR is a transducer for the dsRNA signaling of NF-kappa B.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Maran, A -- Maitra, R K -- Kumar, A -- Dong, B -- Xiao, W -- Li, G -- Williams, B R -- Torrence, P F -- Silverman, R H -- AI 28253/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI 34039-02/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA 44059/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 5;265(5173):789-92.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cancer Biology, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, OH 44195.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7914032" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-18
    Description: Injectable nanoparticulate carriers have important potential applications such as site-specific drug delivery or medical imaging. Conventional carriers, however, cannot generally be used because they are eliminated by the reticulo-endothelial system within seconds or minutes after intravenous injection. To address these limitations, monodisperse biodegradable nanospheres were developed from amphiphilic copolymers composed of two biocompatible blocks. The nanospheres exhibited dramatically increased blood circulation times and reduced liver accumulation in mice. Furthermore, they entrapped up to 45 percent by weight of the drug in the dense core in a one-step procedure and could be freeze-dried and easily redispersed without additives in aqueous solutions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gref, R -- Minamitake, Y -- Peracchia, M T -- Trubetskoy, V -- Torchilin, V -- Langer, R -- GM 26698/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U01 CA52857/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 18;263(5153):1600-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8128245" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of LacI member, PurR, bound to DNA: minor groove binding by alpha helices (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-04
    Description: The three-dimensional structure of a ternary complex of the purine repressor, PurR, bound to both its corepressor, hypoxanthine, and the 16-base pair purF operator site has been solved at 2.7 A resolution by x-ray crystallography. The bipartite structure of PurR consists of an amino-terminal DNA-binding domain and a larger carboxyl-terminal corepressor binding and dimerization domain that is similar to that of the bacterial periplasmic binding proteins. The DNA-binding domain contains a helix-turn-helix motif that makes base-specific contacts in the major groove of the DNA. Base contacts are also made by residues of symmetry-related alpha helices, the "hinge" helices, which bind deeply in the minor groove. Critical to hinge helix-minor groove binding is the intercalation of the side chains of Leu54 and its symmetry-related mate, Leu54', into the central CpG-base pair step. These residues thereby act as "leucine levers" to pry open the minor groove and kink the purF operator by 45 degrees.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schumacher, M A -- Choi, K Y -- Zalkin, H -- Brennan, R G -- GM 24658/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 49244/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 4;266(5186):763-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland 97201-3098.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973627" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-04-01
    Description: Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and activin exert their effects by binding to heteromeric complexes of type I and type II receptors. The type II receptors for TGF-beta and activin are transmembrane serine-threonine kinases; a series of related receptors, denoted activin receptor-like kinase (ALK) 1 to 5, have recently been identified, and ALK-6 is described here. ALK-5 has been shown to be a functional TGF-beta type I receptor. A systematic analysis revealed that most ALKs formed heteromeric complexes with the type II receptors for TGF-beta and activin after overexpression in COS cells; however, among the six ALKs, only ALK-5 was a functional TGF-beta type I receptor for activation of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, and only ALK-2 and ALK-4 bound activin with high affinity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉ten Dijke, P -- Yamashita, H -- Ichijo, H -- Franzen, P -- Laiho, M -- Miyazono, K -- Heldin, C H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 1;264(5155):101-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, Uppsala, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8140412" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Activation of the sphingomyelin cycle through the low-affinity neurotrophin receptor (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-09
    Description: The role of the low-affinity neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) in signal transduction is undefined. Nerve growth factor can activate the sphingomyelin cycle, generating the putative-lipid second messenger ceramide. In T9 glioma cells, addition of a cell-permeable ceramide analog mimicked the effects of nerve growth factor on cell growth inhibition and process formation. This signaling pathway appears to be mediated by p75NTR in T9 cells and NIH 3T3 cells overexpressing p75NTR. Expression of an epidermal growth factor receptor-p75NTR chimera in T9 cells imparted to epidermal growth factor the ability to activate the sphingomyelin cycle. These data demonstrate that p75NTR is capable of signaling independently of the trk neurotrophin receptor (p140trk) and that ceramide may be a mediator in neurotrophin biology.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dobrowsky, R T -- Werner, M H -- Castellino, A M -- Chao, M V -- Hannun, Y A -- AG05531/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- GM43825/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 9;265(5178):1596-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Departments of Medicine and Cell Biology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8079174" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Linkage analysis of IL4 and other chromosome 5q31.1 markers and total serum immunoglobulin E concentrations (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-05-20
    Description: Sib-pair analysis of 170 individuals from 11 Amish families revealed evidence for linkage of five markers in chromosome 5q31.1 with a gene controlling total serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) concentration. No linkage was found between these markers and specific IgE antibody concentrations. Analysis of total IgE within a subset of 128 IgE antibody-negative sib pairs confirmed evidence for linkage to 5q31.1, especially to the interleukin-4 gene (IL4). A combination of segregation and maximum likelihood analyses provided further evidence for this linkage. These analyses suggest that IL4 or a nearby gene in 5q31.1 regulates IgE production in a nonantigen-specific (noncognate) fashion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Marsh, D G -- Neely, J D -- Breazeale, D R -- Ghosh, B -- Freidhoff, L R -- Ehrlich-Kautzky, E -- Schou, C -- Krishnaswamy, G -- Beaty, T H -- 1 P41 RR03655/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- AI20059/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 20;264(5162):1152-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Johns Hopkins Asthma and Allergy Center, School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21224.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8178175" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1994-05-20
    Description: A gene involved in psoriasis susceptibility was localized to the distal region of human chromosome 17q as a result of a genome-wide linkage analysis with polymorphic microsatellites and eight multiply affected psoriasis kindreds. In the family which showed the strongest evidence for linkage, the recombination fraction between a psoriasis susceptibility locus and D17S784 was 0.04 with a maximum two-point lod score of 5.33. There was also evidence for genetic heterogeneity and although none of the linked families showed any association with HLA-Cw6, two unlinked families showed weak levels of association. This study demonstrates that in some families, psoriasis susceptibility is due to variation at a single major genetic locus other than the human lymphocyte antigen locus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tomfohrde, J -- Silverman, A -- Barnes, R -- Fernandez-Vina, M A -- Young, M -- Lory, D -- Morris, L -- Wuepper, K D -- Stastny, P -- Menter, A -- P01-AI2327/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL47145/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 20;264(5162):1141-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pediatrics, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas 75235-8591.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8178173" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

A defective herpes simplex virus type 1 vector expressing human tyrosine hydroxylase was delivered into the partially denervated striatum of 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rats, used as a model of Parkinson's disease. Efficient behavioral and biochemical recovery was maintained for 1 year after gene transfer. Biochemical recovery included increases in both striatal tyrosine hydroxylase enzyme activity and in extracellular dopamine concentrations. Persistence of human tyrosine hydroxylase was revealed by expression of RNA and immunoreactivity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2638002/" 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/PMC2638002/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉During, M J -- Naegele, J R -- O'Malley, K L -- Geller, A I -- EY09749/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- NS06208/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS28227/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS034025/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 25;266(5189):1399-403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Surgery, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06510.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7669103" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Efficient neutralization of primary isolates of HIV-1 by a recombinant human monoclonal antibody (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-11
    Description: The ability of antibodies to neutralize diverse primary isolates of human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 in vitro has been questioned, with implications for the likely efficacy of vaccines. A recombinant human antibody to envelope glycoprotein gp120 was generated and used to show that primary isolates are not refractory to antibody neutralization. The recombinant antibody neutralized more than 75 percent of the primary isolates tested at concentrations that could be achieved by passive immunization, for example, to interrupt maternal-fetal transmission of virus. The broad specificity and efficacy of the antibody implies the conservation of a structural feature on gp120, which could be important in vaccine design.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Burton, D R -- Pyati, J -- Koduri, R -- Sharp, S J -- Thornton, G B -- Parren, P W -- Sawyer, L S -- Hendry, R M -- Dunlop, N -- Nara, P L -- AI27742/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI33292/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI35168/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 11;266(5187):1024-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973652" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-29
    Description: In eukaryotic cells, a multitude of RNA-binding proteins play key roles in the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Characterization of these proteins has led to the identification of several RNA-binding motifs, and recent experiments have begun to illustrate how several of them bind RNA. The significance of these interactions is reflected in the recent discoveries that several human and other vertebrate genetic disorders are caused by aberrant expression of RNA-binding proteins. The major RNA-binding motifs are described and examples of how they may function are given.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Burd, C G -- Dreyfuss, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 29;265(5172):615-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia 19104-6148.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8036511" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Rapid induction of Alzheimer A beta amyloid formation by zinc (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-02
    Description: A beta 1-40, a major component of Alzheimer's disease cerebral amyloid, is present in the cerebrospinal fluid and remains relatively soluble at high concentrations (less than or equal to 3.7 mM). Thus, physiological factors which induce A beta amyloid formation could provide clues to the pathogenesis of the disease. It has been shown that human A beta specifically and saturably binds zinc. Here, concentrations of zinc above 300 nM rapidly destabilized human A beta 1-40 solutions, inducing tinctorial amyloid formation. However, rat A beta 1-40 binds zinc less avidly and is immune to these effects, perhaps explaining the scarcity with which these animals form cerebral A beta amyloid. These data suggest a role for cerebral zinc metabolism in the neuropathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bush, A I -- Pettingell, W H -- Multhaup, G -- d Paradis, M -- Vonsattel, J P -- Gusella, J F -- Beyreuther, K -- Masters, C L -- Tanzi, R E -- R01 AG11899-01/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS30428-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 2;265(5177):1464-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Genetics and Aging, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8073293" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Noradrenergic regulation of cholinergic differentiation (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-06-10
    Description: When the sympathetic nerves that innervate rat sweat glands reach their targets, they are induced to switch from using norepinephrine as their neurotransmitter to acetylcholine. Catecholamines (such as norepinephrine) released by nerves growing to the sweat gland induce this phenotypic conversion by stimulating production of a cholinergic differentiation factor [sweat gland factor (SGF)] by gland cells. Here, culture of gland cells with sympathetic, but not sensory, neurons induced SGF production. Blockage of alpha 1- or beta-adrenergic receptors prevented acquisition of the cholinergic phenotype in sympathetic neurons co-cultured with sweat glands, and sweat glands from sympathectomized animals lacked SGF. Thus, reciprocal instructive interactions, mediated in part by small molecule neurotransmitters, direct the development of this synapse.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Habecker, B A -- Landis, S C -- NS-023678/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1602-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurosciences, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH 44106-4975.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8202714" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of HIV-1 integrase: similarity to other polynucleotidyl transferases (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-23
    Description: HIV integrase is the enzyme responsible for inserting the viral DNA into the host chromosome; it is essential for HIV replication. The crystal structure of the catalytically active core domain (residues 50 to 212) of HIV-1 integrase was determined at 2.5 A resolution. The central feature of the structure is a five-stranded beta sheet flanked by helical regions. The overall topology reveals that this domain of integrase belongs to a superfamily of polynucleotidyl transferases that includes ribonuclease H and the Holliday junction resolvase RuvC. The active site region is identified by the position of two of the conserved carboxylate residues essential for catalysis, which are located at similar positions in ribonuclease H. In the crystal, two molecules form a dimer with a extensive solvent-inaccessible interface of 1300 A2 per monomer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dyda, F -- Hickman, A B -- Jenkins, T M -- Engelman, A -- Craigie, R -- Davies, D R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 23;266(5193):1981-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Biology, NIDDK, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892-0560.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7801124" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    RNA editing: transfer of genetic information from gRNA to precursor mRNA in vitro (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-10-07
    Description: RNA editing in the mitochondrion of Trypanosoma brucei extensively alters the adenosine triphosphate synthase (ATPase) subunit 6 precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) by addition of 447 uridines and removal of 28 uridines. In vivo, the guide RNA gA6[14] is thought to specify the deletion of two uridines from the editing site closest to the 3' end. In this study, an in vitro system was developed that accurately removed uridines from this editing site in synthetic ATPase 6 pre-mRNA when gA6[14] and ATP were added. Mutations in both the guide RNA and the pre-mRNA editing site suggest that base-pairing interactions control the number of uridines deleted in vitro. Thus, guide RNAs are required for RNA editing and for the transfer of genetic information to pre-mRNAs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Seiwert, S D -- Stuart, K -- GM 42188/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Oct 7;266(5182):114-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06536-0182.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7524149" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1994-06-10
    Description: A homozygous mutation in the kinase domain of ZAP-70, a T cell receptor-associated protein tyrosine kinase, produced a distinctive form of human severe combined immunodeficiency. Manifestations of this disorder included profound immunodeficiency, absence of peripheral CD8+ T cells, and abundant peripheral CD4+ T cells that were refractory to T cell receptor-mediated activation. These findings demonstrate that ZAP-70 is essential for human T cell function and suggest that CD4+ and CD8+ T cells depend on different intracellular signaling pathways to support their development or survival.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Elder, M E -- Lin, D -- Clever, J -- Chan, A C -- Hope, T J -- Weiss, A -- Parslow, T G -- AI29313/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM43574/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR01271/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1596-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8202712" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Cell cycle control by a complex of the cyclin HCS26 (PCL1) and the kinase PHO85 (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-25
    Description: The events of the eukaryotic cell cycle are governed by cyclin-dependent kinases (cdk's), whose activation requires association with cyclin regulatory subunits expressed at specific cell cycle stages. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the cell cycle is thought to be controlled by a single cdk, CDC28. Passage through the G1 phase of the cell cycle is regulated by complexes of CDC28 and G1 cyclins (CLN1, CLN2, and CLN3). A putative G1 cyclin, HCS26, has recently been identified. In a/alpha diploid cells lacking CLN1 and CLN2, HCS26 is required for passage through G1. HCS26 does not associate with CDC28, but instead associates with PHO85, a closely related protein kinase. Thus, budding yeast, like higher eukaryotes, use multiple cdk's in the regulation of cell cycle progression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Espinoza, F H -- Ogas, J -- Herskowitz, I -- Morgan, D O -- AI18738/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA52481/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 25;266(5189):1388-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, University of California, San Francisco 94143.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973730" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Mammalian cells respond to endotoxic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by activation of protein kinase cascades that lead to new gene expression. A protein kinase, p38, that was tyrosine phosphorylated in response to LPS, was cloned. The p38 enzyme and the product of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae HOG1 gene, which are both members of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family, have sequences at and adjacent to critical phosphorylation sites that distinguish these proteins from most other MAP kinase family members. Both HOG1 and p38 are tyrosine phosphorylated after extracellular changes in osmolarity. These findings link a signaling pathway in mammalian cells with a pathway in yeast that is responsive to physiological stress.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Han, J -- Lee, J D -- Bibbs, L -- Ulevitch, R J -- AI15136/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM28485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM37696/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 5;265(5173):808-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7914033" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-09
    Description: The stereochemical specificities and reaction courses for both self-splicing steps of a group II intron have been determined by phosphorothioate substitution at the 5' and 3' splice site phosphodiester bonds. Both steps of the splicing reaction proceeded with a phosphorothioate in the Sp configuration but were blocked by the Rp diastereomer. Both steps also proceeded with inversion of stereochemical configuration around phosphorus, consistent with a concerted transesterification reaction. These results are identical to those found for nuclear precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) splicing and provide support for the hypothesis that group II introns and nuclear pre-mRNA introns share a common evolutionary history.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Padgett, R A -- Podar, M -- Boulanger, S C -- Perlman, P S -- GM31480/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM45371/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 9;266(5191):1685-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas 75235.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7527587" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    MHC class I expression in mice lacking the proteasome subunit LMP-7 (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-26
    Description: Proteasomes degrade endogenous proteins. Two subunits, LMP-2 and LMP-7, are encoded in a region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that is critical for class I-restricted antigen presentation. Mice with a targeted deletion of the gene encoding LMP-7 have reduced levels of MHC class I cell-surface expression and present the endogenous antigen HY inefficiently; addition of peptides to splenocytes deficient in LMP-7 restores wild-type class I expression levels. This demonstrates the involvement of LMP-7 in the MHC class I presentation pathway and suggests that LMP-7 functions as an integral part of the peptide supply machinery.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fehling, H J -- Swat, W -- Laplace, C -- Kuhn, R -- Rajewsky, K -- Muller, U -- von Boehmer, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 26;265(5176):1234-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Basel Institute for Immunology, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066463" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular basis of mammalian sexual determination: activation of Mullerian inhibiting substance gene expression by SRY (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-02
    Description: The pathway of male sexual development in mammals is initiated by SRY, a gene on the short arm of the Y chromosome. Its expression in the differentiating gonadal ridge directs testicular morphogenesis, characterized by elaboration of Mullerian inhibiting substance (MIS) and testosterone. SRY and MIS each belong to conserved gene families that function in the control of growth and differentiation. Structural and biochemical studies of the DNA binding domain of SRY (the HMG box) revealed a protein-DNA interaction consisting of partial side chain intercalation into a widened minor groove. Functional studies of SRY in a cell line from embryonic gonadal ridge demonstrated activation of a gene-regulatory pathway leading to expression of MIS. SRY molecules containing mutations associated with human sex reversal have altered structural interactions with DNA and failed to induce transcription of MIS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Haqq, C M -- King, C Y -- Ukiyama, E -- Falsafi, S -- Haqq, T N -- Donahoe, P K -- Weiss, M A -- GM51558/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD30812/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P30HD28138/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 2;266(5190):1494-500.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Pediatric Surgical Research Laboratory, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston 02114.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7985018" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Association of polyomavirus middle tumor antigen with 14-3-3 proteins (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-22
    Description: To carry out its transformation function, the middle tumor antigen (MT) of murine polyomavirus associates with a number of cellular proteins involved in regulation of cell proliferation, including pp60c-Src, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, protein phosphatase 2A, Src homologous and collagen protein and growth factor receptor-binding protein 2. Here, two additional MT-associated proteins were identified as members of the 14-3-3 family of proteins. Yeast homologs of 14-3-3 proteins have recently been shown to play a role in the timing of mitosis. Thus, regulation of 14-3-3 protein function by MT may contribute to the development of neoplasia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pallas, D C -- Fu, H -- Haehnel, L C -- Weller, W -- Collier, R J -- Roberts, T M -- CA30002/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA45285/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA50661/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 22;265(5171):535-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Cellular and Molecular Biology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8036498" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of two GTP-binding proteins in the chloroplast protein import machinery (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-11
    Description: Two of four proteins that associated with translocation intermediates during protein import across the outer chloroplast envelope membrane were identified as guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins. Both proteins are integral membrane proteins of the outer chloroplast membrane, and both are partially exposed on the chloroplast surface where they were accessible to thermolysin digestion. Engagement of the outer membrane's import machinery by an import substrate was inhibited by slowly hydrolyzable or non-hydrolyzable GTP analogs. Thus, these GTP-binding proteins may function in protein import into chloroplasts.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kessler, F -- Blobel, G -- Patel, H A -- Schnell, D J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 11;266(5187):1035-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Cell Biology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973656" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutation of a mutL homolog in hereditary colon cancer (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-18
    Description: Some cases of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) are due to alterations in a mutS-related mismatch repair gene. A search of a large database of expressed sequence tags derived from random complementary DNA clones revealed three additional human mismatch repair genes, all related to the bacterial mutL gene. One of these genes (hMLH1) resides on chromosome 3p21, within 1 centimorgan of markers previously linked to cancer susceptibility in HNPCC kindreds. Mutations of hMLH1 that would disrupt the gene product were identified in such kindreds, demonstrating that this gene is responsible for the disease. These results suggest that defects in any of several mismatch repair genes can cause HNPCC.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Papadopoulos, N -- Nicolaides, N C -- Wei, Y F -- Ruben, S M -- Carter, K C -- Rosen, C A -- Haseltine, W A -- Fleischmann, R D -- Fraser, C M -- Adams, M D -- CA35494/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA47527/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 18;263(5153):1625-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Johns Hopkins Oncology Center, Baltimore, MD 21231.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8128251" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    DNA targets for certain bZIP proteins distinguished by an intrinsic bend (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-05-20
    Description: In spite of the large amount of sequence conservation among the DNA binding segments of basic region leucine zipper (bZIP) proteins, these proteins can discriminate differently between target sequences that differ in half-site spacing. Here it is shown that the half-site spacing preferences of bZIP proteins are the result of (i) the differential intrinsic curvature in target binding sites that differ by insertion or deletion of a single base pair and (ii) the ability of some bZIP proteins to overcome this intrinsic curvature through a mechanism dependent on basic segment residues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paolella, D N -- Palmer, C R -- Schepartz, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 20;264(5162):1130-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8178171" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) play an integral role in T cell activation and differentiation. Defects in the Src-family PTKs in mice and in T cell lines have resulted in variable defects in thymic development and in T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signal transduction. Here, three siblings are described with an autosomal recessive form of severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) in which ZAP-70, a non-Src PTK, is absent as a result of mutations in the ZAP-70 gene. This absence is associated with defects in TCR signal transduction, suggesting an important functional role for ZAP-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chan, A C -- Kadlecek, T A -- Elder, M E -- Filipovich, A H -- Kuo, W L -- Iwashima, M -- Parslow, T G -- Weiss, A -- AR-20684/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- GM39553/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1599-601.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco 94143.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8202713" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mediation of Epstein-Barr virus EBNA2 transactivation by recombination signal-binding protein J kappa (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-01
    Description: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transactivator protein, termed Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2), plays a critical role in the regulation of latent viral transcription and in the immortalization of EBV-infected B cells. Unlike most transcription factors, EBNA2 does not bind directly to its cis-responsive DNA element but requires a cellular factor, termed C-promoter binding factor 1 (CBF1). Here, CBF1 was purified and was found to directly interact with EBNA2. CBF1 is identical to a protein thought to be involved in immunoglobulin gene rearrangement, RBPJ kappa. Contrary to previous reports, CBF1-RBPJ kappa did not bind to the recombination signal sequences but instead bound to sites in the EBV C-promoter and in the CD23 promoter.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Henkel, T -- Ling, P D -- Hayward, S D -- Peterson, M G -- CA42245/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 1;265(5168):92-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Tularik Inc, South San Francisco, CA 94080.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8016657" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    TLC1: template RNA component of Saccharomyces cerevisiae telomerase (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-10-21
    Description: Telomeres, the natural ends of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, are essential for chromosome stability. Because of the nature of DNA replication, telomeres require a specialized mechanism to ensure their complete duplication. Telomeres are also capable of silencing the transcription of genes that are located near them. In order to identify genes in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that are important for telomere function, a screen was conducted for genes that, when expressed in high amounts, would suppress telomeric silencing. This screen lead to the identification of the gene TLC1 (telomerase component 1). TLC1 encodes the template RNA of telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein required for telomere replication in a variety of organisms. The discovery of TLC1 confirms the existence of telomerase in S. cerevisiae and may facilitate both the analysis of this enzyme and an understanding of telomere structure and function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Singer, M S -- Gottschling, D E -- CA 14599/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM43893/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Oct 21;266(5184):404-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics and Cell Biology, University of Chicago, IL 60637.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7545955" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Thymus-neuroendocrine interactions in extrathymic T cell development (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-23
    Description: Studies of the development of murine intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) have yielded markedly different results depending on the experimental system used. In athymic radiation chimeras, IELs consist of all subsets found in euthymic mice; adult mice that were athymic at birth have only IELs that are positive for T cell receptor gamma delta and CD8 alpha alpha. These differences are resolved by the finding that administration of the neuropeptide thyrotropin-releasing hormone to adult mice thymectomized as neonates leads to the development of all IEL T cells. Thus, a neuroendocrine signal initiated by the thymus during fetal or neonatal life appears to be required for subsequent extrathymic maturation of gut alpha beta T cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, J -- Klein, J R -- DK35566/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK035566/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 23;265(5180):1860-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Science, University of Tulsa, OK 74104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8091211" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutations in aquaporin-1 in phenotypically normal humans without functional CHIP water channels (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-09
    Description: The gene aquaporin-1 encodes channel-forming integral protein (CHIP), a member of a large family of water transporters found throughout nature. Three rare individuals were identified who do not express CHIP-associated Colton blood group antigens and whose red cells exhibit low osmotic water permeabilities. Genomic DNA analyses demonstrated that two individuals were homozygous for different nonsense mutations (exon deletion or frameshift), and the third had a missense mutation encoding a nonfunctioning CHIP molecule. Surprisingly, none of the three suffers any apparent clinical consequence, which raises questions about the physiological importance of CHIP and implies that other mechanisms may compensate for its absence.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Preston, G M -- Smith, B L -- Zeidel, M L -- Moulds, J J -- Agre, P -- DK32753/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- HL33991/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL48268/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 9;265(5178):1585-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry, 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/7521540" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    High-resolution structure of the oligomerization domain of p53 by multidimensional NMR (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-15
    Description: The three-dimensional structure of the oligomerization domain (residues 319 to 360) of the tumor suppressor p53 has been solved by multidimensional heteronuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The domain forms a 20-kilodalton symmetric tetramer with a topology made up from a dimer of dimers. The two primary dimers each comprise two antiparallel helices linked by an antiparallel beta sheet. One beta strand and one helix are contributed from each monomer. The interface between the two dimers forming the tetramer is mediated solely by helix-helix contacts. The overall result is a symmetric, four-helix bundle with adjacent helices oriented antiparallel to each other and with the two antiparallel beta sheets located on opposing faces of the molecule. The tetramer is stabilized not only by hydrophobic interactions within the protein core but also by a number of electrostatic interactions. The implications of the structure of the tetramer for the biological function of p53 are discussed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Clore, G M -- Omichinski, J G -- Sakaguchi, K -- Zambrano, N -- Sakamoto, H -- Appella, E -- Gronenborn, A M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 15;265(5170):386-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Chemical Physics, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8023159" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Naturally occurring variation in bristle number and DNA polymorphisms at the scabrous locus of Drosophila melanogaster (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-09
    Description: The association between quantitative genetic variation in bristle number and molecular variation at a candidate neurogenic locus, scabrous, was examined in Drosophila melanogaster. Approximately 32 percent of the genetic variation in abdominal bristle number (21 percent for sternopleural bristle number) among 47 second chromosomes from a natural population was correlated with DNA sequence polymorphisms at this locus. Several polymorphic sites associated with large phenotypic effects occurred at intermediate frequency. Quantitative genetic variation in natural populations caused by alleles that have large effects at a few loci and that segregate at intermediate frequencies conflicts with the classical infinitesimal model of the genetic basis of quantitative variation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lai, C -- Lyman, R F -- Long, A D -- Langley, C H -- Mackay, T F -- GM45146/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM45344/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 9;266(5191):1697-702.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Population Biology, University of California at Davis 95616.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7992053" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A protein phosphatase 2C involved in ABA signal transduction in Arabidopsis thaliana (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-06-03
    Description: The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) mediates various responses such as stomatal closure, the maintenance of seed dormancy, and the inhibition of plant growth. All three responses are affected in the ABA-insensitive mutant abi1 of Arabidopsis thaliana, suggesting that an early step in the signaling of ABA is controlled by the ABI1 locus. The ABI1 gene was cloned by chromosome walking, and a missense mutation was identified in the structural gene of the abi1 mutant. The ABI1 gene encodes a protein with high similarity to protein serine or threonine phosphatases of type 2C with the novel feature of a putative Ca2+ binding site. Thus, the control of the phosphorylation state of cell signaling components by the ABI1 product could mediate pleiotropic hormone responses.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meyer, K -- Leube, M P -- Grill, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 3;264(5164):1452-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Plant Sciences, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8197457" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Resistance to antibiotics mediated by target alterations (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-04-15
    Description: The development of resistance to antibiotics by reductions in the affinities of their enzymatic targets occurs most rapidly for antibiotics that inactivate a single target and that are not analogs of substrate. In these cases of resistance (for example, resistance to rifampicin), numerous single amino acid substitutions may provide large decreases in the affinity of the target for the antibiotic, leading to clinically significant levels of resistance. Resistance due to target alterations should occur much more slowly for those antibiotics (penicillin, for example) that inactivate multiple targets irreversibly by acting as close analogs of substrate. Resistance to penicillin because of target changes has emerged, by unexpected mechanisms, only in a limited number of species. However, inactivating enzymes commonly provide resistance to antibiotics that, like penicillin, are derived from natural products, although such enzymes have not been found for synthetic antibiotics. Thus, the ideal antibiotic would be produced by rational design, rather than by the modification of a natural product.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Spratt, B G -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 15;264(5157):388-93.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Microbial Genetics Group, School of Biological Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton, U.K.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8153626" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Adaptive reversion of a frameshift mutation in Escherichia coli by simple base deletions in homopolymeric runs (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-15
    Description: Spontaneous mutations are thought to occur primarily in growing cells. However, spontaneous mutations also arise in nutritionally deprived cells, and in some cases this process appears to be adaptive. Here it is reported that when a Lac- strain of Escherichia coli is under selection for lactose use, the spectrum of Lac+ mutations that arises is different, and simpler, than that arising without selection. Mutations appearing during selection were mainly one-base deletions in runs of iterated bases. Similar mutations occurring in repetitive DNA elements are associated with a variety of human hereditary diseases and are increased in cells that cannot correct heteroduplex DNA.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2990682/" 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/PMC2990682/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Foster, P L -- Trimarchi, J M -- R01 GM054084/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM054084-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 15;265(5170):407-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Environmental Health, Boston University School of Public Health, MA 02118.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8023164" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Fatty acylation of two internal lysine residues required for the toxic activity of Escherichia coli hemolysin (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-23
    Description: Hemolysin of Escherichia coli is activated by fatty acylation of the protoxin, directed by the putative acyl transferase HlyC and by acyl carrier protein (ACP). Mass spectrometry and Edman degradation of proteolytic products from mature toxin activated in vitro with tritium-labeled acylACP revealed two fatty-acylated internal lysine residues, lysine 564 and lysine 690. Resistance of the acylation to chemical treatments suggested that fatty acid was amide linked. Substitution of the two lysines confirmed that they were the only sites of acylation and showed that although each was acylated in the absence of the other, both sites were required for in vivo toxin activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stanley, P -- Packman, L C -- Koronakis, V -- Hughes, C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 23;266(5193):1992-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Cambridge University, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7801126" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Retention of unassembled components of integral membrane proteins by calnexin (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-01-21
    Description: Quality control mechanisms prevent the cell surface expression of incompletely assembled multisubunit receptors such as the T cell receptor (TCR). The molecular chaperone function of calnexin (IP90, p88), a 90-kilodalton protein that resides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), in the retention of representative chains of the TCR-CD3 complex in the ER was tested. Truncation mutants of calnexin, when transiently expressed in COS cells, were exported from the ER and either accumulated in the Golgi or progressed to the cell surface. CD3 epsilon chains cotransfected with the forms of calnexin that were not retained in the ER exited the ER and colocalized with calnexin. Since engineered calnexin determined the intracellular localization of the proteins associated with it, it is concluded that calnexin interacts with incompletely assembled TCR components and retains them in the ER.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rajagopalan, S -- Xu, Y -- Brenner, M B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jan 21;263(5145):387-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8278814" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The function of keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) in normal and wounded skin was assessed by expression of a dominant-negative KGF receptor transgene in basal keratinocytes. The skin of transgenic mice was characterized by epidermal atrophy, abnormalities in the hair follicles, and dermal hyperthickening. Upon skin injury, inhibition of KGF receptor signaling reduced the proliferation rate of epidermal keratinocytes at the wound edge, resulting in substantially delayed reepithelialization of the wound.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Werner, S -- Smola, H -- Liao, X -- Longaker, M T -- Krieg, T -- Hofschneider, P H -- Williams, L T -- HL-43821/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL32898/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 4;266(5186):819-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cardiovascular Research Institute, University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) 94143-0130.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973639" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Cell membrane resealing by a vesicular mechanism similar to neurotransmitter release (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-01-21
    Description: After injury to the cell membrane, rapid resealing of the membrane occurs with little loss of intracellular contents. This process has been studied by measurement of the rate of dye loss after membrane puncture in both the sea urchin embryo and 3T3 fibroblasts. Resealing of disrupted cell membranes requires external calcium that can be antagonized by magnesium. Block of multifunctional calcium/calmodulin kinase, which regulates exocytotic vesicle availability at synapses, and of kinesin, which is required for outward-directed transport of vesicles, inhibited membrane resealing. Resealing was also inhibited by botulinum neurotoxins B and A, suggesting that the two synaptosomal-associated proteins synaptobrevin and SNAP-25 also participate in resealing. This pattern of inhibition indicates that the calcium-dependent mechanisms for cell membrane resealing may involve vesicle delivery, docking, and fusion, similar to the exocytosis of neurotransmitters.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Steinhardt, R A -- Bi, G -- Alderton, J M -- R01 AR41129/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jan 21;263(5145):390-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7904084" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An interleukin-4-induced transcription factor: IL-4 Stat (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-16
    Description: Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is an immunomodulatory cytokine secreted by activated T lymphocytes, basophils, and mast cells. It plays an important role in modulating the balance of T helper (Th) cell subsets, favoring expansion of the Th2 lineage relative to Th1. Imbalance of these T lymphocyte subsets has been implicated in immunological diseases including allergy, inflammation, and autoimmune disease. IL-4 may mediate its biological effects, at least in part, by activating a tyrosine-phosphorylated DNA binding protein. This protein has now been purified and its encoding gene cloned. Examination of the primary amino acid sequence of this protein indicates that it is a member of the signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stat) family of DNA binding proteins, hereby designated IL-4 Stat. Study of the inhibitory activities of phosphotyrosine-containing peptides derived from the intracellular domain of the IL-4 receptor provided evidence for direct coupling of receptor and transcription factor during the IL-4 Stat activation cycle. Such observations indicate that IL-4 Stat has the same functional domain for both receptor coupling and dimerization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hou, J -- Schindler, U -- Henzel, W J -- Ho, T C -- Brasseur, M -- McKnight, S L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 16;265(5179):1701-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Tularik, Inc., South San Francisco, CA 94080.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8085155" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-09
    Description: A posttranslational modification was detected in the carboxyl-terminal region of axonemal tubulin from Paramecium. Tubulin carboxyl-terminal peptides were isolated and analyzed by Edman degradation sequencing, mass spectrometry, and amino acid analysis. All of the peptides, derived from both alpha and beta tubulin subunits, were modified by polyglycylation, containing up to 34 glycyl units covalently bound to the gamma carboxyl group of glutamyl residues. This modification, present in one of the most stable microtubular systems, may influence microtubule stability or axoneme function, or both.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Redeker, V -- Levilliers, N -- Schmitter, J M -- Le Caer, J P -- Rossier, J -- Adoutte, A -- Bre, M H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 9;266(5191):1688-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut Alfred Fessard, CNRS Unite Propre de Recherche 2212, Gif-sur-Yvette, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7992051" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Differential activation of ERK and JNK mitogen-activated protein kinases by Raf-1 and MEKK (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-09
    Description: Growth factors activate mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), including extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) and Jun kinases (JNKs). Although the signaling cascade from growth factor receptors to ERKs is relatively well understood, the pathway leading to JNK activation is more obscure. Activation of JNK by epidermal growth factor (EGF) or nerve growth factor (NGF) was dependent on H-Ras activation, whereas JNK activation by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) was Ras-independent. Ras activates two protein kinases, Raf-1 and MEK (MAPK, or ERK, kinase) kinase (MEKK). Raf-1 contributes directly to ERK activation but not to JNK activation, whereas MEKK participated in JNK activation but caused ERK activation only after overexpression. These results demonstrate the existence of two distinct Ras-dependent MAPK cascades--one initiated by Raf-1 leading to ERK activation, and the other initiated by MEKK leading to JNK activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Minden, A -- Lin, A -- McMahon, M -- Lange-Carter, C -- Derijard, B -- Davis, R J -- Johnson, G L -- Karin, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 9;266(5191):1719-23.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla 92093-0636.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7992057" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Arrest of motor neuron disease in wobbler mice cotreated with CNTF and BDNF (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-19
    Description: Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) each promote the survival and differentiation of developing motor neurons, but do so through distinct cellular signaling pathways. Administration of either factor alone has been shown to slow, but not to arrest, progression of motor neuron dysfunction in wobbler mice, an animal model of motor neuron disease. Because CNTF and BDNF are known to synergize in vitro and in ovo, the efficacy of CNTF and BDNF cotreatment was tested in the same animal mode. Subcutaneous injection of the two factors on alternate days was found to arrest disease progression in wobbler mice for 1 month, as measured by several behavioral, physiological, and histological criteria.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mitsumoto, H -- Ikeda, K -- Klinkosz, B -- Cedarbaum, J M -- Wong, V -- Lindsay, R M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 19;265(5175):1107-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, OH 44195.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066451" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of the equine infectious anemia virus Tat protein (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-06-10
    Description: Trans-activator (Tat) proteins regulate the transcription of lentiviral DNA in the host cell genome. These RNA binding proteins participate in the life cycle of all known lentiviruses, such as the human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV) or the equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV). The consensus RNA binding motifs [the trans-activation responsive element (TAR)] of HIV-1 as well as EIAV Tat proteins are well characterized. The structure of the 75-amino acid EIAV Tat protein in solution was determined by two- and three-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance methods and molecular dynamics calculations. The protein structure exhibits a well-defined hydrophobic core of 15 amino acids that serves as a scaffold for two flexible domains corresponding to the NH2- and COOH-terminal regions. The core region is a strictly conserved sequence region among the known Tat proteins. The structural data can be used to explain several of the observed features of Tat proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Willbold, D -- Rosin-Arbesfeld, R -- Sticht, H -- Frank, R -- Rosch, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1584-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lehrstuhl fur Biopolymere, Universitat Bayreuth, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7515512" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Sensing starvation: a homoserine lactone--dependent signaling pathway in Escherichia coli (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-07-22
    Description: When nutrients become limiting, many bacteria differentiate and become resistant to environmental stresses. For Escherichia coli, this process is mediated by the sigma s subunit of RNA polymerase. Expression of sigma s was induced by homoserine lactone, a metabolite synthesized from intermediates in threonine biosynthesis. Homoserine lactone-dependent synthesis of sigma s was prevented by overexpression of a newly identified protein, RspA. The function of homoserine lactone derivatives in many cell density-dependent phenomena and the similarity of RspA to a Streptomyces ambofaciens protein suggest that synthesis of homoserine lactone may be a general signal of starvation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Huisman, G W -- Kolter, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jul 22;265(5171):537-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7545940" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Autoproteolysis in hedgehog protein biogenesis (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-02
    Description: Extracellular signaling proteins encoded by the hedgehog (hh) multigene family are responsible for the patterning of a variety of embryonic structures in vertebrates and invertebrates. The Drosophila hh gene has now been shown to generate two predominant protein species that are derived by an internal autoproteolytic cleavage of a larger precursor. Mutations that reduced the efficiency of autoproteolysis in vitro diminished precursor cleavage in vivo and also impaired the signaling and patterning activities of the HH protein. The two HH protein species exhibited distinctive biochemical properties and tissue distribution, and these differences suggest a mechanism that could account for the long- and short-range signaling activities of HH in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, J J -- Ekker, S C -- von Kessler, D P -- Porter, J A -- Sun, B I -- Beachy, P A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 2;266(5190):1528-37.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7985023" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Heterozygotes expressed 50 percent of the normal amount of CFTR protein in the intestinal epithelium and secreted 50 percent of the normal fluid and chloride ion in intestinal epithelium and secreted 50 percent of the normal fluid and chloride ion and fluid secretion suggests that CF heterozygotes might possess a selective advantage of resistance to cholera.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gabriel, S E -- Brigman, K N -- Koller, B H -- Boucher, R C -- Stutts, M J -- DK46003/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- HL34322/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL42384/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Oct 7;266(5182):107-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill 27599.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7524148" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dependence on p75 for innervation of some sympathetic targets (1994)

    Publication Date: 1994-03-11
    Description: The low-affinity neurotrophin receptor p75 binds all neurotrophins with similar affinity. For elucidation of its function, mice bearing a null mutation in the p75 locus were generated. Examination of sympathetic innervation of target tissues revealed that pineal glands lacked innervation and sweat gland innervation was absent or reduced in particular footpads. The absence of adult innervation reflects the failure of axons to reach these targets during development rather than a target deficit. These results indicate that p75 facilitates development of specific populations of sympathetic neurons, for which it may support axon growth.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, K F -- Bachman, K -- Landis, S -- Jaenisch, R -- 5 R35 CA44339/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- NS 023678/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 11;263(5152):1447-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, Cambridge, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8128229" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Reconstitution of transcription factor SL1: exclusive binding of TBP by SL1 or TFIID subunits (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-23
    Description: RNA polymerase I and II transcription factors SL1 and TFIID, respectively, are composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and a set of TBP-associated factors (TAFs) responsible for promoter recognition. How the universal transcription factor TBP becomes committed to a TFIID or SL1 complex has not been known. Complementary DNAs encoding each of the three TAFIs that are integral components of SL1 have not been isolated. Analysis of subunit interactions indicated that the three TAFIs can bind individually and specifically to TBP. In addition, these TAFIs interact with each other to form a stable TBP-TAF complex. When TBP was bound first by either TAFI110, 63, or 48, subunits of TFIID such as TAFII250 and 150 did not bind TBP. Conversely, if TBP first formed a complex with TAFII250 or 150, the subunits of SL1 did not bind TBP. These results suggest that a mutually exclusive binding specificity for TBP intrinsic to SL1 and TFIID subunits directs the formation of promoter- and RNA polymerase-selective TBP-TAF complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Comai, L -- Zomerdijk, J C -- Beckmann, H -- Zhou, S -- Admon, A -- Tjian, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 23;266(5193):1966-72.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California at Berkeley 94720-3204.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7801123" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1994-08-12
    Description: The critical discriminatory event in the activation of T lymphocytes bearing alpha beta T cell receptors (TCRs) is their interaction with a molecular complex consisting of a peptide bound to a major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-encoded class I or class II molecule on the surface of an antigen-presenting cell. The kinetics of binding were measured of a purified TCR to molecular complexes of a purified soluble analog of the murine MHC class I molecule H-2Ld (sH-2Ld) and a synthetic octamer peptide p2CL in a direct, real-time assay based on surface plasmon resonance. The kinetic dissociation rate of the MHC-peptide complex from the TCR was rapid (2.6 x 10(-2) second-1, corresponding to a half-time for dissociation of approximately 27 seconds), and the kinetic association rate was 2.1 x 10(5) M-1 second-1. The equilibrium constant for dissociation was approximately 10(-7) M. These values indicate that TCRs must interact with a multivalent array of MHC-peptide complexes to trigger T cell signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Corr, M -- Slanetz, A E -- Boyd, L F -- Jelonek, M T -- Khilko, S -- al-Ramadi, B K -- Kim, Y S -- Maher, S E -- Bothwell, A L -- Margulies, D H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 12;265(5174):946-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular Biology Section, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8052850" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Maternal rescue of transforming growth factor-beta 1 null mice (1994)

    Publication Date: 1994-06-24
    Description: Maternal sources of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) are shown here to contribute to the normal appearance and perinatal survival of TGF-beta 1 null newborn mice. Labeled TGF-beta 1 crossed the placenta and was recovered intact from various tissues after oral administration to mouse pups. TGF beta-1 protein was also detected in cells recovered from breast milk. In immunohistochemical analyses, TGF-beta 1 null embryos and null newborn pups born to TGF-beta 1 heterozygotes stained positive for TGF-beta 1, whereas those born to a null female were negative and had severe cardiac abnormalities. These results suggest an important role for maternal sources of TGF-beta 1 during development and, more generally, provide evidence for maternal rescue of targeted gene disruption in the fetus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Letterio, J J -- Geiser, A G -- Kulkarni, A B -- Roche, N S -- Sporn, M B -- Roberts, A B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 24;264(5167):1936-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Chemoprevention, 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/8009224" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stimulatory effects of yeast and mammalian 14-3-3 proteins on the Raf protein kinase (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-16
    Description: Intracellular signaling from receptor tyrosine kinases in mammalian cells results in activation of a signal cascade that includes the guanine nucleotide-binding protein Ras and the protein kinases Raf, MEK [mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) or extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase], and MAPK. MAPK activation that is dependent on the coupling of Ras and Raf was reconstituted in yeast. Yeast genes were isolated that, when overexpressed, enhanced the function of Raf. One of them is identical to BMH1, which encodes a protein similar to members of the mammalian 14-3-3 family. Bacterially synthesized mammalian 14-3-3 protein stimulated the activity of Raf prepared from yeast cells expressing c-Raf-1. Thus, the 14-3-3 protein may participate in or be required for activation of Raf.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Irie, K -- Gotoh, Y -- Yashar, B M -- Errede, B -- Nishida, E -- Matsumoto, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 16;265(5179):1716-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Faculty of Science, Nagoya University, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8085159" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of a peptide recognized by five melanoma-specific human cytotoxic T cell lines (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-04-29
    Description: Of several thousand peptides presented by the major histocompatibility molecule HLA-A2.1, at least nine are recognized by melanoma-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Tandem mass spectrometry was used to identify and to sequence one of these peptide epitopes. Melanoma-specific CTLs had an exceptionally high affinity for this nine-residue peptide, which reconstituted an epitope for CTL lines from each of five different melanoma patients tested. Recognition by multiple CTL lines suggests that this may be a promising candidate for use in peptide-based melanoma vaccines.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cox, A L -- Skipper, J -- Chen, Y -- Henderson, R A -- Darrow, T L -- Shabanowitz, J -- Engelhard, V H -- Hunt, D F -- Slingluff, C L Jr -- AI33993/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA57653/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM37537/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 29;264(5159):716-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Virginia, Charlottesville 22908.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7513441" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Catalytic activity of an RNA domain derived from the U6-U4 RNA complex (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-01-07
    Description: U6 RNA contains two regions that are essential for proper splicing of nuclear precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA). A comparison of putative secondary structures of the U6-U4 RNA complexes from different phyla revealed a conserved domain that is similar to the catalytic hammerhead RNA motif. Although no catalytic activity was detected in the mammalian U6-U4 RNA complexes, two nucleotide changes in U6 RNA and one in U4 RNA conferred cleavage activity to the complex. Furthermore, the highly conserved domain of the wild-type complex, without the accompanying flanking regions, cleaved an RNA substrate and exhibited other characteristics of the hammerhead ribozyme. The possible involvement of this structure in pre-mRNA splicing is also discussed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, J H -- Cedergren, R -- Nadal-Ginard, B -- R01 AR36865-08/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jan 7;263(5143):77-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8272868" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Coatomer interaction with di-lysine endoplasmic reticulum retention motifs (1994)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-18
    Description: Although signals for retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) have been identified in the cytoplasmic domain of various ER-resident type I transmembrane proteins, the mechanisms responsible for ER retention are still unknown. Yeast and mammalian ER retention motifs interacted specifically in cell lysates with the coatomer, a polypeptide complex implicated in membrane traffic. Mutations that affect the ER retention capacity of the motifs also abolished binding of the coatomer. These results suggest a role for the coatomer in the retrieval of transmembrane proteins to the ER in both yeast and mammals.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cosson, P -- Letourneur, F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 18;263(5153):1629-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Basel Institute for Immunology, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8128252" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A subset of CD4+ thymocytes selected by MHC class I molecules (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-25
    Description: To complete their maturation, most immature thymocytes depend on the simultaneous engagement of their antigen receptor [alpha beta T cell receptor (TCR)] and their CD4 or CD8 coreceptors with major histocompatibility complex class II or I ligands, respectively. However, a normal subset of mature alpha beta TCR+ thymocytes did not follow these rules. These thymocytes expressed NK1.1 and a restricted set of alpha beta TCRs that are intrinsically class I-reactive because their positive selection was class I-dependent but CD8-independent. These cells were CD4+ and CD4-8- but never CD8+, because the presence of CD8 caused negative selection. Thus, neither CD4 nor CD8 contributes signals that direct their maturation into the CD4+ and CD4-8- lineages.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bendelac, A -- Killeen, N -- Littman, D R -- Schwartz, R H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 25;263(5154):1774-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Cellular and Molecular Immunology, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7907820" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Design of a G.C-specific DNA minor groove-binding peptide (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-10-28
    Description: A four-ring tripeptide containing alternating imidazole and pyrrole carboxamides specifically binds six-base pair 5'-(A,T)GCGC(A,T)-3' sites in the minor groove of DNA. The designed peptide has a specificity completely reversed from that of the tripyrrole distamycin, which binds A,T sequences. Structural studies with nuclear magnetic resonance revealed that two peptides bound side-by-side and in an antiparallel orientation in the minor groove. Each of the four imidazoles in the 2:1 ligand-DNA complex recognized a specific guanine amino group in the GCGC core through a hydrogen bond. Targeting a designated four-base pair G.C tract by this synthetic ligand supports the generality of the 2:1 peptide-DNA motif for sequence-specific minor groove recognition of DNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Geierstanger, B H -- Mrksich, M -- Dervan, P B -- Wemmer, D E -- GM-27681/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-43129/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Oct 28;266(5185):646-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate Group in Biophysics, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7939719" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Target of the transcriptional activation function of phage lambda cI protein (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-01-07
    Description: Activation of transcription initiation by the cI protein of phage lambda is thought to be mediated by a direct interaction between cl and RNA polymerase at the PRM promoter. Two negatively charged amino acid residues in the DNA binding domain of cI play a key role in activation, suggesting that these residues contact RNA polymerase. The subunit of RNA polymerase involved was identified by selecting polymerase mutants that restored the activation function of a mutant form of cI protein. Although previous studies suggest that several activators interact with the alpha subunit of RNA polymerase, the results here suggest that cI interacts with the sigma subunit. An arginine to histidine change near the carboxyl terminus of sigma specifically suppresses an aspartic acid to asparagine change in the activation region of cI. This finding supports the direct-contact model and suggests that a cluster of positively charged residues near the carboxyl terminus of sigma is the target of the negatively charged activation region of cI.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, M -- Moyle, H -- Susskind, M M -- GM36811/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jan 7;263(5143):75-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089-1340.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8272867" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Kin selection, social structure, gene flow, and the evolution of chimpanzees (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-26
    Description: Hypotheses about chimpanzee social behavior, phylogeography, and evolution were evaluated by noninvasive genotyping of free-ranging individuals from 20 African sites. Degrees of relatedness among individuals in one community were inferred from allele-sharing at eight nuclear simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci. Males are related on the order of half-siblings, and homozygosity is significantly increased at several SSR loci compared to Hardy-Weinberg expectations. These data support the kin-selection hypothesis for the evolution of cooperation among males. Sequence variation patterns at two mitochondrial loci indicate historically high long-distance gene flow and clarify the relationships among three allopatric subspecies. The unexpectedly large genetic distance between the western subspecies, Pan troglodytes verus, and the other two subspecies suggests a divergence time of about 1.58 million years. This result, if confirmed at nuclear loci and supported by eco-behavioral data, implies that P. t. verus should be elevated to full species rank.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Morin, P A -- Moore, J J -- Chakraborty, R -- Jin, L -- Goodall, J -- Woodruff, D S -- 1T32 HG00005-02/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 26;265(5176):1193-201.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla 92093-0116.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7915048" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Plant disease resistance genes function is highly specific pathogen recognition pathways. PRS2 is a resistance gene of Arabidopsis thaliana that confers resistance against Pseudomonas syringae bacteria that express avirulence gene avrRpt2. RPS2 was isolated by the use of a positional cloning strategy. The derived amino acid sequence of RPS2 contains leucine-rich repeat, membrane-spanning, leucine zipper, and P loop domains. The function of the RPS2 gene product in defense signal transduction is postulated to involve nucleotide triphosphate binding and protein-protein interactions and may also involve the reception of an elicitor produced by the avirulent pathogen.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bent, A F -- Kunkel, B N -- Dahlbeck, D -- Brown, K L -- Schmidt, R -- Giraudat, J -- Leung, J -- Staskawicz, B J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 23;265(5180):1856-60.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant Biology, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8091210" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    PHAS-I as a link between mitogen-activated protein kinase and translation initiation (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-10-28
    Description: PHAS-I is a heat-stable protein (relative molecular mass approximately 12,400) found in many tissues. It is rapidly phosphorylated in rat adipocytes incubated with insulin or growth factors. Nonphosphorylated PHAS-I bound to initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E) and inhibited protein synthesis. Serine-64 in PHAS-I was rapidly phosphorylated by mitogen-activated (MAP) kinase, the major insulin-stimulated PHAS-I kinase in adipocyte extracts. Results obtained with antibodies, immobilized PHAS-I, and a messenger RNA cap affinity resin indicated that PHAS-I did not bind eIF-4E when serine-64 was phosphorylated. Thus, PHAS-I may be a key mediator of the stimulation of protein synthesis by the diverse group of agents and stimuli that activate MAP kinase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lin, T A -- Kong, X -- Haystead, T A -- Pause, A -- Belsham, G -- Sonenberg, N -- Lawrence, J C Jr -- AR41180/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- DK28312/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Oct 28;266(5185):653-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and Pharmacology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7939721" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The crystal structure of a complex between a 24-amino acid peptide from the third variable (V3) loop of human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) gp 120 and the Fab fragment of a broadly neutralizing antibody (59.1) was determined to 3 angstrom resolution. The tip of the V3 loop containing the Gly-Pro-Gly-Arg-Ala-Phe sequence adopts a double-turn conformation, which may be the basis of its conservation in many HIV-1 isolates. A complete map of the HIV-1 principal neutralizing determinant was constructed by stitching together structures of V3 loop peptides bound to 59.1 and to an isolate-specific (MN) neutralizing antibody (50.1). Structural conservation of the overlapping epitopes suggests that this biologically relevant conformation could be of use in the design of synthetic vaccines and drugs to inhibit HIV-1 entry and virus-related cellular fusion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ghiara, J B -- Stura, E A -- Stanfield, R L -- Profy, A T -- Wilson, I A -- GM-46192/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 1;264(5155):82-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7511253" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-02-25
    Description: Encounters with antigen can stimulate T cells to become activated and proliferate, become nonresponsive to antigen, or to die. T cell death was shown to be a physiological response to interleukin-2-stimulated cell cycling and T cell receptor reengagement at high antigen doses. This feedback regulatory mechanism attenuates the immune response by deleting a portion of newly dividing, antigen-reactive T cells. This mechanism deleted autoreactive T cells and abrogated the clinical and pathological signs of autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice after repetitive administration of myelin basic protein.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Critchfield, J M -- Racke, M K -- Zuniga-Pflucker, J C -- Cannella, B -- Raine, C S -- Goverman, J -- Lenardo, M J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Feb 25;263(5150):1139-43.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Immunology, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7509084" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A Candida albicans gene (CPH1) was cloned that encodes a protein homologous to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ste12p, a transcription factor that is the target of the pheromone response mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. CPH1 complements both the mating defect of ste12 haploids and the filamentous growth defect of ste12/ste12 diploids. Candida albicans strains without a functional CPH1 gene (cph1/cph1) show suppressed hyphal formation on solid medium. However, cph1/cph1 strains can still form hyphae in liquid culture and in response to serum. Thus, filamentous growth may be activated in C. albicans by the same signaling kinase cascade that activates Ste12p in S. cerevisiae; however, alternative pathways may exist in C. albicans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, H -- Kohler, J -- Fink, G R -- GM402661/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 9;266(5191):1723-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, Cambridge, MA 02142.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7992058" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Calcium-calmodulin modulation of the olfactory cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-25
    Description: Although several ion channels have been reported to be directly modulated by calcium-calmodulin, they have not been conclusively shown to bind calmodulin, nor are the modulatory mechanisms understood. Study of the olfactory cyclic nucleotide-activated cation channel, which is modulated by calcium-calmodulin, indicates that calcium-calmodulin directly binds to a specific domain on the amino terminus of the channel. This binding reduces the effective affinity of the channel for cyclic nucleotides, apparently by acting on channel gating, which is tightly coupled to ligand binding. The data reveal a control mechanism that resembles those underlying the regulation of enzymes by calmodulin. The results also point to the amino-terminal part of the olfactory channel as an element for gating, which may have general significance in the operation of ion channels with similar overall structures.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, M -- Chen, T Y -- Ahamed, B -- Li, J -- Yau, K W -- EY 06837/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 25;266(5189):1348-54.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Baltimore, MD.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7526466" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    High-resolution molecular discrimination by RNA (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-03-11
    Description: Species of RNA that bind with high affinity and specificity to the bronchodilator theophylline were identified by selection from an oligonucleotide library. One RNA molecule binds to theophylline with a dissociation constant Kd of 0.1 microM. This binding affinity is 10,000-fold greater than the RNA molecule's affinity for caffeine, which differs from theophylline only by a methyl group at nitrogen atom N-7. Analysis by nuclear magnetic resonance indicates that this RNA molecule undergoes a significant change in its conformation or dynamics upon theophylline binding. Binding studies of compounds chemically related to theophylline have revealed structural features required for the observed binding specificity. These results demonstrate the ability of RNA molecules to exhibit an extremely high degree of ligand recognition and discrimination.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jenison, R D -- Gill, S C -- Pardi, A -- Polisky, B -- AI01051/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI33098/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RR03283/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Mar 11;263(5152):1425-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉NeXagen, Inc., Boulder, CO 80301.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7510417" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stat3: a STAT family member activated by tyrosine phosphorylation in response to epidermal growth factor and interleukin-6 (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-04-01
    Description: The STAT family of proteins carries out a dual function: signal transduction and activation of transcription. A new family member, Stat3, becomes activated through phosphorylation on tyrosine as a DNA binding protein in response to epidermal growth factor (EGF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) but not interferon gamma (IFN-gamma). It is likely that this phosphoprotein forms homodimers as well as heterodimers with the first described member of the STAT family, Stat91 (renamed Stat1 alpha), which is activated by the IFNs and EGF. Differential activation of different STAT proteins in response to different ligands should help to explain specificity in nuclear signaling from the cell surface.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhong, Z -- Wen, Z -- Darnell, J E Jr -- AI32489/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 1;264(5155):95-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8140422" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    DNA bending by asymmetric phosphate neutralization (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-16
    Description: DNA is often bent when complexed with proteins. Understanding the forces responsible for DNA bending would be of fundamental value in exploring the interplay of these macromolecules. A series of experiments was devised to test the hypothesis that proteins with cationic surfaces can induce substantial DNA bending by neutralizing phosphates on one DNA face. Repulsions between phosphates in the remaining anionic helix are predicted to result in an unbalanced compression force acting to deform the DNA toward the protein. This hypothesis is supported by the results of electrophoretic experiments in which DNA spontaneously bends when one helical face is partially modified by incorporation of neutral phosphate analogs. Phasing with respect to a site of intrinsic DNA curvature (hexadeoxyadenylate tract) permits estimation of the electrostatic bend angle, and demonstrates that such modified DNAs are deformed toward the neutralized surface, as predicted. Similar model systems may be useful in exploring the extent to which phosphate neutralization can account for DNA bending by particular proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Strauss, J K -- Maher, L J 3rd -- GM47814/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA36727-08/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 16;266(5192):1829-34.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer and Allied Diseases, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha 68198-6805.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7997878" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The TATA-binding protein: a general transcription factor in eukaryotes and archaebacteria (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-05-27
    Description: The TATA-binding protein TBP appears to be essential for all transcription in eukaryotic cell nuclei, which suggests that its function was established early in evolution. Archaebacteria constitute a kingdom of organisms distinct from eukaryotes and eubacteria. Archaebacterial gene regulatory sequences often map to TATA box-like motifs. Here it is shown that the archaebacterium Pyrococcus woesei expresses a protein with structural and functional similarity to eukaryotic TBP molecules. This suggests that TBP's role in transcription was established before the archaebacterial and eukaryotic lineages diverged and that the transcription systems of archaebacteria and eukaryotes are fundamentally homologous.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rowlands, T -- Baumann, P -- Jackson, S P -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 May 27;264(5163):1326-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome/CRC Institute, Cambridge, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8191287" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Coaxially stacked RNA helices in the catalytic center of the Tetrahymena ribozyme (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-16
    Description: Coaxial stacking of helical elements is a determinant of three-dimensional structure in RNA. In the catalytic center of the Tetrahymena group I intron, helices P4 and P6 are part of a tertiary structural domain that folds independently of the remainder of the intron. When P4 and P6 were fused with a phosphodiester linkage, the resulting RNA retained the detailed tertiary interactions characteristic of the native P4-P6 domain and even required lower magnesium ion concentrations for folding. These results indicate that P4 and P6 are coaxial in the P4-P6 domain and, therefore, in the native ribozyme. Helix fusion could provide a general method for identifying pairs of coaxially stacked helices in biological RNA molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Murphy, F L -- Wang, Y H -- Griffith, J D -- Cech, T R -- GM31819/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 16;265(5179):1709-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder 80309.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8085157" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of a catalytic antibody with a serine protease active site (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-19
    Description: The three-dimensional structure of an unusually active hydrolytic antibody with a phosphonate transition state analog (hapten) bound to the active site has been solved to 2.5 A resolution. The antibody (17E8) catalyzes the hydrolysis of norleucine and methionine phenyl esters and is selective for amino acid esters that have the natural alpha-carbon L configuration. A plot of the pH-dependence of the antibody-catalyzed reaction is bell-shaped with an activity maximum at pH 9.5; experiments on mechanism lend support to the formation of a covalent acyl-antibody intermediate. The structural and kinetic data are complementary and support a hydrolytic mechanism for the antibody that is remarkably similar to that of the serine proteases. The antibody active site contains a Ser-His dyad structure proximal to the phosphorous atom of the bound hapten that resembles two of the three components of the Ser-His-Asp catalytic triad of serine proteases. The antibody active site also contains a Lys residue to stabilize oxyanion formation, and a hydrophobic binding pocket for specific substrate recognition of norleucine and methionine side chains. The structure identifies active site residues that mediate catalysis and suggests specific mutations that may improve the catalytic efficiency of the antibody. This high resolution structure of a catalytic antibody-hapten complex shows that antibodies can converge on active site structures that have arisen through natural enzyme evolution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhou, G W -- Guo, J -- Huang, W -- Fletterick, R J -- Scanlan, T S -- DK39304/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 19;265(5175):1059-64.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0448.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066444" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of a conserved retinoic acid response element in rhombomere restriction of Hoxb-1 (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-16
    Description: After activation in mesoderm and neuroectoderm, expression of the Hoxb-1 gene is progressively restricted to rhombomere (r) 4 in the hindbrain. Analysis of the chick and mouse Hoxb-1 genes identified positive and negative regulatory regions that cooperate to mediate segment-restricted expression during rhombomere formation. An enhancer generates expression extending into r3 and r5, and a repressor limits this domain to r4. The repressor contains a conserved retinoic acid response element, point mutations in which allow expression to spread into adjacent rhombomeres. Retinoids and their nuclear receptors may therefore participate in sharpening segment-restricted expression of Hoxb-1 during rhombomere boundary formation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Studer, M -- Popperl, H -- Marshall, H -- Kuroiwa, A -- Krumlauf, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 16;265(5179):1728-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lab of Developmental Neurobiology, National Institute for Medical Research, Mill Hill, London, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7916164" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Transformation of lupus-inducing drugs to cytotoxic products by activated neutrophils (1994)

    Description: Drug-induced lupus is a serious side effect of certain medications, but the chemical features that confer this property and the underlying pathogenesis are puzzling. Prototypes of all six therapeutic classes of lupus-inducing drugs were highly cytotoxic only in the presence of activated neutrophils. Removal of extracellular hydrogen peroxide before, but not after, exposure of the drug to activated neutrophils prevented cytotoxicity. Neutrophil-dependent cytotoxicity required the enzymatic action of myeloperoxidase, resulting in the chemical transformation of the drug to a reactive product. The capacity of drugs to serve as myeloperoxidase substrates in vitro was associated with the ability to induce lupus in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jiang, X -- Khursigara, G -- Rubin, R L -- MO1 RR00833/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG09574/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 4;266(5186):810-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉W.
