    Description: Fertilization depends on cell surface recognition proteins that interact and thereby mediate binding and subsequent fusion of the sperm and egg. Overlapping complementary DNA's encoding the egg plasma membrane receptor for sperm from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus were cloned and sequenced. Analysis of the deduced primary structure suggests that the receptor is a transmembrane protein with a short cytoplasmic domain. This domain showed no sequence similarity to known protein sequences. In contrast, the extracellular, sperm binding domain of the receptor did show sequence similarity to the heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) family of proteins. Recombinant protein representing this portion of the receptor bound to the sperm protein, binding, and also inhibited fertilization in a species-specific manner; beads coated with the protein became specifically bound to acrosome-reacted sperm. These data provide a basis for detailed investigations of molecular interactions that occur in gamete recognition and egg activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Foltz, K R -- Partin, J S -- Lennarz, W J -- HD18590/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Mar 5;259(5100):1421-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, University of California, Santa Barbara 93106.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8383878" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The gene encoding alpha 6(IV) collagen, COL4A6, was identified on the human X chromosome in a head-to-head arrangement and within 452 base pairs of the alpha 5(IV) collagen gene, COL4A5. In earlier studies, intragenic deletions of COL4A5 were detected in a subset of patients with Alport syndrome (AS), a hereditary defect of basement membranes. In some families, AS cosegregates with diffuse leiomyomatosis (DL), a benign smooth muscle tumor diathesis. Here it is shown that patients with AS-DL harbor deletions that disrupt both COL4A5 and COL4A6. Thus, type IV collagen may regulate smooth muscle differentiation and morphogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhou, J -- Mochizuki, T -- Smeets, H -- Antignac, C -- Laurila, P -- de Paepe, A -- Tryggvason, K -- Reeders, S T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 27;261(5125):1167-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06536-0812.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8356449" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Hydrogen exchange pulse labeling and stopped-flow circular dichroism were used to establish that the structure of the earliest detectable intermediate formed during refolding of apomyoglobin corresponds closely to that of a previously characterized equilibrium molten globule. This compact, cooperatively folded intermediate was formed in less than 5 milliseconds and contained stable, hydrogen-bonded secondary structure localized in the A, G, and H helices and part of the B helix. The remainder of the B helix folded on a much slower time scale, followed by the C and E helices and the CD loop. The data indicate that a molten globule intermediate was formed on the kinetic folding pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jennings, P A -- Wright, P E -- DK-34909/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM14541/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR04953/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 5;262(5135):892-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8235610" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The structure of the bifunctional, pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme dialkylglycine decarboxylase was determined to 2.1-angstrom resolution. Model building suggests that a single cleavage site catalyzes both decarboxylation and transamination by maximizing stereoelectronic advantages and providing electrostatic and general base catalysis. The enzyme contains two binding sites for alkali metal ions. One is located near the active site and accounts for the dependence of activity on potassium ions. The other is located at the carboxyl terminus of an alpha helix. These sites help show how proteins can specifically bind alkali metals and how these ions can exert functional effects.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Toney, M D -- Hohenester, E -- Cowan, S W -- Jansonius, J N -- GM13854/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 6;261(5122):756-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Structural Biology, University of Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8342040" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Colorectal tumor DNA was examined for somatic instability at (CA)n repeats on human chromosomes 5q, 15q, 17p, and 18q. Differences between tumor and normal DNA were detected in 25 of the 90 (28 percent) tumors examined. This instability appeared as either a substantial change in repeat length (often heterogeneous in nature) or a minor change (typically two base pairs). Microsatellite instability was significantly correlated with the tumor's location in the proximal colon (P = 0.003), with increased patient survival (P = 0.02), and, inversely, with loss of heterozygosity for chromosomes 5q, 17p, and 18q. These data suggest that some colorectal cancers may arise through a mechanism that does not necessarily involve loss of heterozygosity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thibodeau, S N -- Bren, G -- Schaid, D -- CA-15083-18E8.1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 7;260(5109):816-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8484122" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: CD4+ T cells play a major role in protective immunity against the blood stage of malaria, but the mechanism of protection is unclear. By adoptive transfer of cloned T cell lines, direct evidence is provided that both TH1 and TH2 subsets of CD4+ T cells can protect mice against Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi infection. TH1 cells protect by a nitric oxide-dependent mechanism, whereas TH2 cells protect by the enhancement and accelerated production of specific immunoglobulin G1 antibody.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Taylor-Robinson, A W -- Phillips, R S -- Severn, A -- Moncada, S -- Liew, F Y -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 25;260(5116):1931-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome Laboratories for Experimental Parasitology, University of Glasgow, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8100366" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Rapid photoinduced electron transfer is demonstrated over a distance of greater than 40 angstroms between metallointercalators that are tethered to the 5' termini of a 15-base pair DNA duplex. An oligomeric assembly was synthesized in which the donor is Ru(phen)2dppz2+ (phen, phenanthroline, and dppz, dipyridophenazine) and the acceptor is Rh(phi)2phen3+ (phi, phenanthrenequinone diimine). These metal complexes are intercalated either one or two base steps in from the helix termini. Although the ruthenium-modified oligonucleotide hybridized to an unmodified complement luminesces intensely, the ruthenium-modified oligomer hybridized to the rhodium-modified oligomer shows no detectable luminescence. Time-resolved studies point to a lower limit of 10(9) per second for the quenching rate. No quenching was observed upon metallation of two complementary octamers by Ru(phen)3(2+) and Rh(phen)3(3+) under conditions where the phen complexes do not intercalate. The stacked aromatic heterocycles of the DNA duplex therefore serve as an efficient medium for coupling electron donors and acceptors over very long distances.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Murphy, C J -- Arkin, M R -- Jenkins, Y -- Ghatlia, N D -- Bossmann, S H -- Turro, N J -- Barton, J K -- GM49216/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 12;262(5136):1025-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Beckman Institute, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7802858" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Anopheles gambiae, the primary vector of human malaria in Africa, is responsible for approximately a million deaths per year, mostly of children. Despite its significance in disease transmission, this mosquito has not been studied extensively by genetic or molecular techniques. To facilitate studies on this vector, a genetic map has been developed that covers the X chromosome at an average resolution of 2 centimorgans. This map has been integrated with the chromosome banding pattern and used to localize a recessive, sex-linked mutation (white eye) to within 1 centimorgan of flanking markers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zheng, L -- Collins, F H -- Kumar, V -- Kafatos, F C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 30;261(5121):605-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Developmental Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8342025" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Direct gene transfer into adult animals resulting in generalized or tissue-specific expression would facilitate rapid analysis of transgene effects and allow precise in vivo manipulation of biologic processes at the molecular level. A single intravenous injection of expression plasmid:cationic liposome complexes into adult mice efficiently transfected virtually all tissues. In addition to vascular endothelial cells, most of the extravascular parenchymal cells present in many tissues including the lung, spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow expressed the transgene without any apparent treatment-related toxicity. The transgene was still expressed in large numbers of cells in multiple tissues for at least 9 weeks after a single injection. Expression could be targeted to specific tissues and cell types, depending on the promoter element used.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhu, N -- Liggitt, D -- Liu, Y -- Debs, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 9;261(5118):209-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cancer Research Institute, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0128.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7687073" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In cystic fibrosis (CF), absence or dysfunction of a phosphorylation-regulated chloride channel [CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)] leads to the loss or reduction of chloride secretion into the airways. Active sodium absorption is also increased in CF, and both of these ion transport changes could alter fluid transport across the airways. Under baseline conditions, cultured human airway epithelia from normal individuals absorbed fluid, and this absorption was increased in epithelia from patients with CF. In normal and CF epithelial cultures fluid absorption was inhibited by amiloride. Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate stimulated fluid secretion in normal epithelial cultures but not in cultures from individuals with CF. In contrast, fluid secretion induced by nucleotide triphosphates (uridine triphosphate or adenosine triphosphate) was unaltered in cultures of epithelia from patients with CF, suggesting an approach to the treatment of CF.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jiang, C -- Finkbeiner, W E -- Widdicombe, J H -- McCray, P B Jr -- Miller, S S -- HL 42368/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Oct 15;262(5132):424-7.〈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/8211164" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Intracellular recordings from simple cells of the cat visual cortex were used to test linear models for the generation of selectivity for the direction of visual motion. Direction selectivity has been thought to arise in part from nonlinear processes, as suggested by previous experiments that were based on extracellular recordings of action potentials. In intracellular recordings, however, the fluctuations in membrane potential evoked by moving stimuli were accurately predicted by the linear summation of responses to stationary stimuli. Nonlinear mechanisms were not required.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jagadeesh, B -- Wheat, H S -- Ferster, D -- R01 EY04726/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 17;262(5141):1901-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurobiology and Physiology, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8266083" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The amino acid at position 160 of the ligand-binding subunit, alpha 1, is an important determinant of agonist and antagonist binding to the glycine receptor. Exchange of the neighboring residues, phenylalanine at position 159 and tyrosine at position 161, increased the efficacy of amino acid agonists. Whereas wild-type alpha 1 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes required 0.7 millimolar beta-alanine for a half-maximal response, the doubly mutated (F159Y,Y161F) alpha 1 subunit had an affinity for beta-alanine (which was more potent than glycine) that was 110-fold that of the wild type.

    Description: Biomolecular membranes display rich statistical mechanical behavior. They are classified as liquid in the absence of shear elasticity in the plane of the membrane and tethered (solid) when the neighboring molecules or subunits are connected and the membranes exhibit solid-like elastic behavior in the plane of the membrane. The spectrin skeleton of red blood cells was studied as a model tethered membrane. The static structure factor of the skeletons, measured by small-angle x-ray and light scattering, was fitted with a structure factor predicted with a model calculation. The model describes tethered membrane sheets with free edges in a flat phase, which is a locally rough but globally flat membrane configuration. The fit was good for large scattering vectors. The membrane roughness exponent, zeta, defined through h alpha L zeta, where h is the average amplitude of out-of-plane fluctuations and L is the linear membrane dimension, was determined to be 0.65 +/- 0.10. Computer simulations of model red blood cell skeletons also showed this flat phase. The value for the roughness exponent, which was determined from the scaling properties of membranes of different sizes, was consistent with that from the experiments.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schmidt, C F -- Svoboda, K -- Lei, N -- Petsche, I B -- Berman, L E -- Safinya, C R -- Grest, G S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Feb 12;259(5097):952-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Developmental Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8438153" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Klenow fragment of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I, which was cocrystallized with duplex DNA, positioned 11 base pairs of DNA in a groove that lies at right angles to the cleft that contains the polymerase active site and is adjacent to the 3' to 5' exonuclease domain. When the fragment bound DNA, a region previously referred to as the "disordered domain" became more ordered and moved along with two helices toward the 3' to 5' exonuclease domain to form the binding groove. A single-stranded, 3' extension of three nucleotides bound to the 3' to 5' exonuclease active site. Although this cocrystal structure appears to be an editing complex, it suggests that the primer strand approaches the catalytic site of the polymerase from the direction of the 3' to 5' exonuclease domain and that the duplex DNA product may bend to enter the cleft that contains the polymerase catalytic site.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beese, L S -- Derbyshire, V -- Steitz, T A -- GM28550/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Apr 16;260(5106):352-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8469987" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The analysis of the differences between two complex genomes holds promise for the discovery of infectious agents and probes useful for genetic studies. A system was developed in which subtractive and kinetic enrichment was used to purify restriction endonuclease fragments present in one population of DNA fragments but not in another. Application of this method to DNA populations of reduced complexity ("representations") resulted in the isolation of probes to viral genomes present as single copies in human DNA, and probes that detect polymorphisms between two individuals. In principle, this system, called representational difference analysis (RDA), may also be used for isolating probes linked to sites of genomic rearrangements, whether occurring spontaneously and resulting in genetic disorders or cancer, or programmed during differentiation and development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lisitsyn, N -- Wigler, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Feb 12;259(5097):946-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, NY 11724.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8438152" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Female spotted hyenas exhibit male-like genitalia and dominance over males. Hyena ovarian tissues incubated in vitro produced large quantities of the steroid hormone precursor androstenedione. The activity of aromatase, which converts androstenedione to estrogen, was one-twentieth as great in hyena versus human placental homogenates. In comparison, the activity of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, which converts androstenedione to testosterone, was equal in the two homogenates. The limited aromatase activity may allow the hyena placenta to convert high circulating concentrations of androstenedione to testosterone, which results in virilization of the fetal external genitalia and possibly destruction of fetal ovarian follicles. Androstenedione production by residual ovarian stromal cells during reproductive life accounts for the epigenetic transmission of virilization in female spotted hyenas.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yalcinkaya, T M -- Siiteri, P K -- Vigne, J L -- Licht, P -- Pavgi, S -- Frank, L G -- Glickman, S E -- CA-39825/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- MH-39917/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 25;260(5116):1929-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, University of California School of Medicine, San Francisco 94143.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8391165" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The phosphocarrier protein IIIGlc is an integral component of the bacterial phosphotransferase (PTS) system. Unphosphorylated IIIGlc inhibits non-PTS carbohydrate transport systems by binding to diverse target proteins. The crystal structure at 2.6 A resolution of one of the targets, glycerol kinase (GK), in complex with unphosphorylated IIIGlc, glycerol, and adenosine diphosphate was determined. GK contains a region that is topologically identical to the adenosine triphosphate binding domains of hexokinase, the 70-kD heat shock cognate, and actin. IIIGlc binds far from the catalytic site of GK, indicating that long-range conformational changes mediate the inhibition of GK by IIIGlc. GK and IIIGlc are bound by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions, with only one hydrogen bond involving an uncharged group. The phosphorylation site of IIIGlc, His90, is buried in a hydrophobic environment formed by the active site region of IIIGlc and a 3(10) helix of GK, suggesting that phosphorylation prevents IIIGlc binding to GK by directly disrupting protein-protein interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hurley, J H -- Faber, H R -- Worthylake, D -- Meadow, N D -- Roseman, S -- Pettigrew, D W -- Remington, S J -- 5-R37 GM38759/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 42618-01A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jan 29;259(5095):673-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8430315" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The elongated proteins of the spectrin family (dystrophin, alpha-actinin, and spectrin) contain tandemly repeated segments and form resilient cellular meshworks by cross-linking actin filaments. The structure of one of the repetitive segments of alpha-spectrin was determined at a 1.8 angstrom resolution. A segment consists of a three-helix bundle. A model of the interface between two tandem segments suggests that hydrophobic interactions between segments may constrain intersegment flexibility. The helix side chain interactions explain how mutations that are known to produce hemolytic anemias disrupt spectrin associations that sustain the integrity of the erythrocyte membrane.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yan, Y -- Winograd, E -- Viel, A -- Cronin, T -- Harrison, S C -- Branton, D -- CA 13202/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- HL 17411/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 24;262(5142):2027-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8266097" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Fertilization is accompanied by a transient increase in the concentration of intracellular Ca2+, which serves as a signal for initiating development. Some of the Ca2+ appears to be released from intracellular stores by the binding of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) to its receptor. However, in sea urchin eggs, other mechanisms appear to participate. Cyclic adenosine diphosphate--ribose (cADPR), a naturally occurring metabolite of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is as potent as IP3 in mobilizing Ca2+ in sea urchin eggs. Experiments with antagonists of the cADPR and IP3 receptors revealed that both Ca2+ mobilizing systems were activated during fertilization. Blockage of either of the systems alone was not sufficient to prevent the sperm-induced Ca2+ transient. This study provides direct evidence for a physiological role of cADPR in the Ca2+ signaling process.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, H C -- Aarhus, R -- Walseth, T F -- HD17484/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 16;261(5119):352-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis 55455.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8392749" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The three-dimensional solution structure of the DNA binding domain (DBD) of the retinoid X receptor alpha (RXR alpha) was determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The two zinc fingers of the RXR DBD fold to form a single structural domain that consists of two perpendicularly oriented helices and that resembles the corresponding regions of the glucocorticoid and estrogen receptors (GR and ER, respectively). However, in contrast to the DBDs of the GR and ER, the RXR DBD contains an additional helix immediately after the second zinc finger. This third helix mediates both protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions required for cooperative, dimeric binding of the RXR DBD to DNA. Identification of the third helix in the RXR DBD thus defines a structural feature required for selective dimerization of the RXR on hormone response elements composed of half-sites (5'-AGGTCA-3') arranged as tandem repeats.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, M S -- Kliewer, S A -- Provencal, J -- Wright, P E -- Evans, R M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 21;260(5111):1117-21.〈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/8388124" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Sequences that flanked the transgenic integration site were cloned and mapped to mouse chromosome 4, between the Tsha and Hxb loci. During early embryonic development, the direction of postimplantation turning, one of the earliest manifestations of left-right asymmetry, was reversed in homozygous transgenic embryos. This insertional mutation identifies a gene that controls embryonic turning and visceral left-right polarity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yokoyama, T -- Copeland, N G -- Jenkins, N A -- Montgomery, C A -- Elder, F F -- Overbeek, P A -- HD25340/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- N01-CO-74101/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Apr 30;260(5108):679-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8480178" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The three-dimensional structure of pectate lyase C from Erwinia chrysanthemi has been solved and refined to a resolution of 2.2 angstroms. The enzyme folds into a unique motif of parallel beta strands coiled into a large helix. Within the core, the amino acids form linear stacks and include a novel asparagine ladder. The sequence similarities that pectate lyases share with pectin lyases, pollen and style proteins, and tubulins suggest that the parallel beta helix motif may occur in a broad spectrum of proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yoder, M D -- Keen, N T -- Jurnak, F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 4;260(5113):1503-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of California, Riverside 92521.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8502994" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Activated autoreactive T cells are potentially pathogenic and regulated by clonotypic networks. Experimental autoimmune diseases can be treated by inoculation with autoreactive T cells (T cell vaccination). In the present study, patients with multiple sclerosis were inoculated with irradiated myelin basic protein (MBP)-reactive T cells. T cell responses to the inoculates were induced to deplete circulating MBP-reactive T cells in the recipients. Regulatory T cell lines isolated from the recipients inhibited T cells used for vaccination. The cytotoxicity of the CD8+ T cell lines was restricted by major histocompatibility antigens. Thus, clonotypic interactions regulating autoreactive T cells in humans can be induced by T cell vaccination.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhang, J -- Medaer, R -- Stinissen, P -- Hafler, D -- Raus, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Sep 10;261(5127):1451-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Multiple Sclerosis Research Unit, Dr. L.

    Description: Better characterization of human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) in patients with primary infection has important implications for the development of an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) vaccine because vaccine strategies should target viral isolates with the properties of transmitted viruses. In five HIV-1 seroconverters, the viral phenotype was found to be uniformly macrophage-tropic and non-syncytium-inducing. Furthermore, the viruses were genotypically homogeneous within each patient, but a common signature sequence was not discernible among transmitted viruses. In the two cases where the sexual partners were also studied, the sequences of the transmitted viruses matched best with minor variants in the blood of the transmitters. There was also a stronger pressure to conserve sequences in gp120 than in gp41, nef, and p17, suggesting that a selective mechanism is involved in transmission.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhu, T -- Mo, H -- Wang, N -- Nam, D S -- Cao, Y -- Koup, R A -- Ho, D D -- AI24030/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI25541/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI27742/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 27;261(5125):1179-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, New York University School of Medicine, NY 10016.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8356453" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A predisposition to colorectal cancer is shown to be linked to markers on chromosome 2 in some families. Molecular features of "familial" cancers were compared with those of sporadic colon cancers. Neither the familial nor sporadic cancers showed loss of heterozygosity for chromosome 2 markers, and the incidence of mutations in KRAS, P53, and APC was similar in the two groups of tumors. Most of the familial cancers, however, had widespread alterations in short repeated DNA sequences, suggesting that numerous replication errors had occurred during tumor development. Thirteen percent of sporadic cancers had identical abnormalities and these cancers shared biologic properties with the familial cases. These data suggest a mechanism for familial tumorigenesis different from that mediated by classic tumor suppressor genes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aaltonen, L A -- Peltomaki, P -- Leach, F S -- Sistonen, P -- Pylkkanen, L -- Mecklin, J P -- Jarvinen, H -- Powell, S M -- Jen, J -- Hamilton, S R -- CA 35494/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 47527/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 7;260(5109):812-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medical Genetics, University of Helsinki, Finland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8484121" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A 24-amino acid peptide designed to solubilize integral membrane proteins has been synthesized. The design was for an amphipathic alpha helix with a "flat" hydrophobic surface that would interact with a transmembrane protein as a detergent. When mixed with peptide, 85 percent of bacteriorhodopsin and 60 percent of rhodopsin remained in solution over a period of 2 days in their native forms. The crystal structure of peptide alone showed it to form an antiparallel four-helix bundle in which monomers interact, flat surface to flat surface, as predicted.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schafmeister, C E -- Miercke, L J -- Stroud, R M -- GM24485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Oct 29;262(5134):734-8.〈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/8235592" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The T cell receptor (TCR) requirements in the pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes were examined with transgenic NOD mice bearing nondisease-related TCR alpha and beta chains. In both TCR beta and TCR alpha beta transgenic NOD mice the beta chain transgene was expressed by 〉 98% of peripheral T cells. The alpha chain transgene was also highly expressed. Insulitis developed in both sets of transgenic animals with most of the lymphocytes in the lesion expressing the transgenic beta chain and with depletion of the endogenous TCR V beta genes. Nonetheless, NOD animals transgenic for TCR beta and TCR alpha beta developed diabetes similar to controls. Thus, skewing the TCR repertoire did not diminish autoimmune susceptibility in NOD mice.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lipes, M A -- Rosenzweig, A -- Tan, K N -- Tanigawa, G -- Ladd, D -- Seidman, J G -- Eisenbarth, G S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Feb 19;259(5098):1165-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Joslin Diabetes Center, Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8267690" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The apolipoprotein E type 4 allele (APOE-epsilon 4) is genetically associated with the common late onset familial and sporadic forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Risk for AD increased from 20% to 90% and mean age at onset decreased from 84 to 68 years with increasing number of APOE-epsilon 4 alleles in 42 families with late onset AD. Thus APOE-epsilon 4 gene dose is a major risk factor for late onset AD and, in these families, homozygosity for APOE-epsilon 4 was virtually sufficient to cause AD by age 80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Corder, E H -- Saunders, A M -- Strittmatter, W J -- Schmechel, D E -- Gaskell, P C -- Small, G W -- Roses, A D -- Haines, J L -- Pericak-Vance, M A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 13;261(5123):921-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Joseph and Kathleen Bryan Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8346443" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Propagating Ca2+ waves are a characteristic feature of Ca(2+)-linked signal transduction pathways. Intracellular Ca2+ waves are formed by regenerative stimulation of Ca2+ release from intracellular stores by Ca2+ itself. Mechanisms that rely on either inositol trisphosphate or ryanodine receptor channels have been proposed to account for Ca2+ waves in various cell types. Both channel types contributed to the Ca2+ wave during fertilization of sea urchin eggs. Alternative mechanisms of Ca2+ release imply redundancy but may also allow for modulation and diversity in the generation of Ca2+ waves.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Galione, A -- McDougall, A -- Busa, W B -- Willmott, N -- Gillot, I -- Whitaker, M -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 16;261(5119):348-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Oxford University, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8392748" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A variety of tumors are potentially immunogenic but do not stimulate an effective anti-tumor immune response in vivo. Tumors may be capable of delivering antigen-specific signals to T cells, but may not deliver the costimulatory signals necessary for full activation of T cells. Expression of the costimulatory ligand B7 on melanoma cells was found to induce the rejection of a murine melanoma in vivo. This rejection was mediated by CD8+ T cells; CD4+ T cells were not required. These results suggest that B7 expression renders tumor cells capable of effective antigen presentation, leading to their eradication in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Townsend, S E -- Allison, J P -- CA57986/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jan 15;259(5093):368-70.〈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/7678351" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The unfertilized eggs of vertebrates are arrested in metaphase of meiosis II because of the activity of cytostatic factor (CSF). Xenopus CSF is thought to contain the product of the Mos proto-oncogene, but other proteins synthesized during meiosis II are also required for arrest induced by CSF. In Xenopus oocytes, ablation of synthesis of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) during meiosis resulted in absence of the metaphase II block, even though the Mosxe protein kinase was fully active at metaphase. Introduction of purified Cdk2 restored metaphase II arrest, and increasing the amount of Cdk2 during meiosis I (when Mosxe is present) led to metaphase arrest at meiosis I. These data indicate that metaphase arrest is a result of cooperation between a proto-oncogene kinase and a cyclin-dependent kinase and illustrate the interaction of a cell growth regulator with a cell cycle control element.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gabrielli, B G -- Roy, L M -- Maller, J L -- F32 CA0981/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM26743/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Mar 19;259(5102):1766-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Denver 80262.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8456304" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The enhancer for the immunoglobulin mu heavy chain gene (IgH) activates a heterologous gene at the pre-B cell stage of B lymphocyte differentiation. A lymphoid-specific element, microB, is necessary for enhancer function in pre-B cells. A microB binding protein is encoded by the PU.1/Spi-1 proto-oncogene. Another sequence element, microA, was identified in the mu enhancer that binds the product of the ets-1 proto-oncogene. The microA motif was required for microB-dependent enhancer activity, which suggests that a minimal B cell-specific enhancer is composed of both the PU.1 and Ets-1 binding sites. Co-expression of both PU.1 and Ets-1 in nonlymphoid cells trans-activated reporter plasmids that contained the minimal mu enhancer. These results implicate two members of the Ets family in the activation of IgH gene expression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nelsen, B -- Tian, G -- Erman, B -- Gregoire, J -- Maki, R -- Graves, B -- Sen, R -- 1K04GM00563/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38663/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38925/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 2;261(5117):82-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Rosenstiel Research Center, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02254.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8316859" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Metalloenzymes effect a variety of important chemical transformations, often involving small molecule substrates or products such as molecular oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and water. A diverse array of ions or metal clusters is observed at the active-site cores, but living systems use basic recurring structures that have been modified or tuned for specific purposes. Inorganic chemists are actively involved in the elucidation of the structure, spectroscopy, and mechanism of action of these biological catalysts, in part through a synthetic modeling approach involving biomimetic studies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Karlin, K D -- GM28962/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM45971/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 6;261(5122):701-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7688141" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Interferons (IFNs) induce antiviral activity in many cell types. The ability of IFN-gamma to inhibit replication of ectromelia, vaccinia, and herpes simplex-1 viruses in mouse macrophages correlated with the cells' production of nitric oxide (NO). Viral replication was restored in IFN-gamma-treated macrophages exposed to inhibitors of NO synthase. Conversely, epithelial cells with no detectable NO synthesis restricted viral replication when transfected with a complementary DNA encoding inducible NO synthase or treated with organic compounds that generate NO. In mice, an inhibitor of NO synthase converted resolving ectromelia virus infection into fulminant mousepox. Thus, induction of NO synthase can be necessary and sufficient for a substantial antiviral effect of IFN-gamma.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Karupiah, G -- Xie, Q W -- Buller, R M -- Nathan, C -- Duarte, C -- MacMicking, J D -- CA43610/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Sep 10;261(5127):1445-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Viral Diseases, 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/7690156" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Metalloproteins play structural and catalytic roles in gene expression. The metalloregulatory proteins are a subclass that exerts metal-responsive control of genes involved in respiration, metabolism, and metal-specific homeostasis or stress-response systems, such as iron uptake and storage, copper efflux, and mercury detoxification. Two allosteric mechanisms for control of gene expression were first discovered in metalloregulatory systems: an iron-responsive translational control mechanism for ferritin production and a mercury-responsive DNA-distortion mechanism for transcriptional control of detoxification genes. These otherwise unrelated mechanisms give rise to a rapid physiological response when metal ion concentrations exceed a dangerous threshold. Molecular recognition in these allosteric metal ion receptors is achieved through atypical coordination geometries, cluster formation, or complexes with prosthetic groups, such as sulfide and heme. Thus, many of the inorganic assemblies that otherwise buttress the structure of biopolymers or catalyze substrate transformation in active sites of enzymes have also been adapted to serve sensor functions in the metalloregulatory proteins. Mechanistic studies of these metal-sensor protein interactions are providing new insights into fundamental aspects of inorganic chemistry, molecular biology, and cellular physiology.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Halloran, T V -- R01 GM038784/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 6;261(5122):715-25.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208-3113.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8342038" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Single-site mutants in the Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) gene (SOD1) occur in patients with the fatal neurodegenerative disorder familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS). Complete screening of the SOD1 coding region revealed that the mutation Ala4 to Val in exon 1 was the most frequent one; mutations were identified in exons 2, 4, and 5 but not in the active site region formed by exon 3. The 2.4 A crystal structure of human SOD, along with two other SOD structures, established that all 12 observed FALS mutant sites alter conserved interactions critical to the beta-barrel fold and dimer contact, rather than catalysis. Red cells from heterozygotes had less than 50 percent normal SOD activity, consistent with a structurally defective SOD dimer. Thus, defective SOD is linked to motor neuron death and carries implications for understanding and possible treatment of FALS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Deng, H X -- Hentati, A -- Tainer, J A -- Iqbal, Z -- Cayabyab, A -- Hung, W Y -- Getzoff, E D -- Hu, P -- Herzfeldt, B -- Roos, R P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Aug 20;261(5124):1047-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL 60611.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8351519" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cardiac hypertrophy in response to systolic pressure loading frequently results in contractile dysfunction of unknown cause. In the present study, pressure loading increased the microtubule component of the cardiac muscle cell cytoskeleton, which was responsible for the cellular contractile dysfunction observed. The linked microtubule and contractile abnormalities were persistent and thus may have significance for the deterioration of initially compensatory cardiac hypertrophy into congestive heart failure.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tsutsui, H -- Ishihara, K -- Cooper, G 4th -- HL37196/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Apr 30;260(5108):682-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8097594" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In mammals, the hydroperoxidation of arachidonic acid by lipoxygenases leads to the formation of leukotrienes and lipoxins, compounds that mediate inflammatory responses. Lipoxygenases are dioxygenases that contain a nonheme iron and are present in many animal cells. Soybean lipoxygenase-1 is a single-chain, 839-residue protein closely related to mammalian lipoxygenases. The structure of soybean lipoxygenase-1 solved to 2.6 angstrom resolution shows that the enzyme has two domains: a 146-residue beta barrel and a 693-residue helical bundle. The iron atom is in the center of the larger domain and is coordinated by three histidines and the COO- of the carboxyl terminus. The coordination geometry is nonregular and appears to be a distorted octahedron in which two adjacent positions are not occupied by ligands. Two cavities, in the shapes of a bent cylinder and a frustum, connect the unoccupied positions to the surface of the enzyme. The iron, with two adjacent and unoccupied positions, is poised to interact with the 1,4-diene system of the substrate and with molecular oxygen during catalysis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boyington, J C -- Gaffney, B J -- Amzel, L M -- GM36232/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM036232/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 4;260(5113):1482-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biophysics and Biophysical 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/8502991" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) in Drosophila simulans is related to infection of the germ line by a rickettsial endosymbiont (genus Wolbachia). Wolbachia were transferred by microinjection of egg cytoplasm into uninfected eggs of both D. simulans and D. melanogaster to generate infected populations. Transinfected strains of D. melanogaster with lower densities of Wolbachia than the naturally infected D. simulans strain did not express high levels of CI. However, transinfected D. melanogaster egg cytoplasm, transferred back into D. simulans, generated infected populations that expressed CI at levels near those of the naturally infected strain. A transinfected D. melanogaster line selected for increased levels of CI expression also displayed increased symbiont densities. These data suggest that a threshold level of infection is required for normal expression of CI and that host factors help determine the density of the symbiont in the host.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boyle, L -- O'Neill, S L -- Robertson, H M -- Karr, T L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 18;260(5115):1796-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Illinois, Urbana 61801.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8511587" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Diaphragmatic function and intrapulmonary respiratory flow in running mammals were found to differ substantially from the corresponding conditions known in resting mammals. In trotting dogs, orbital oscillations of the diaphragm were driven by inertial displacements of the viscera induced by locomotion. In turn, oscillations of the visceral mass drove pulmonary ventilation independent of diaphragmatic contractions, which primarily served to modulate visceral kinetics. Visceral displacements and loading of the anterior chest wall by the forelimbs are among the factors that contribute to an asynchronous ventilation of the lungs and interlobar gas recycling. Basic features of mammalian respiratory design, including the structure of the diaphragm and lobation of the lungs, appear to reflect the mechanical requirements of locomotor-respiratory integration.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bramble, D M -- Jenkins, F A Jr -- S07 RR07092/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Oct 8;262(5131):235-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City 84112.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8211141" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The CD4 antigen is a membrane glycoprotein of T lymphocytes that interacts with major histocompatibility complex class II antigens and is also a receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus. the extracellular portion of CD4 is predicted to fold into four immunoglobulin-like domains. The crystal structure of the third and fourth domains of rat CD4 was solved at 2.8 angstrom resolution and shows that both domains have immunoglobulin folds. Domain 3, however, lacks the disulfide between the beta sheets; this results in an expansion of the domain. There is a difference of 30 degrees in the orientation between domains 3 and 4 when compared with domains 1 and 2. The two CD4 fragment structures provide a basis from which models of the overall receptor can be proposed. These models suggest an extended structure comprising two rigid portions joined by a short and possibly flexible linker region.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brady, R L -- Dodson, E J -- Dodson, G G -- Lange, G -- Davis, S J -- Williams, A F -- Barclay, A N -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 14;260(5110):979-83.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of York, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8493535" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory synovial disease thought to involve T cells reacting to an antigen within the joint. Type II collagen is the major protein in articular cartilage and is a potential autoantigen in this disease. Oral tolerization to autoantigens suppresses animal models of T cell-mediated autoimmune disease, including two models of rheumatoid arthritis. In this randomized, double-blind trial involving 60 patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis, a decrease in the number of swollen joints and tender joints occurred in subjects fed chicken type II collagen for 3 months but not in those that received a placebo. Four patients in the collagen group had complete remission of the disease. No side effects were evident. These data demonstrate clinical efficacy of an oral tolerization approach for rheumatoid arthritis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Trentham, D E -- Dynesius-Trentham, R A -- Orav, E J -- Combitchi, D -- Lorenzo, C -- Sewell, K L -- Hafler, D A -- Weiner, H L -- AG00294/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- MO1 RR01032/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Sep 24;261(5129):1727-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Hospital, Boston, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8378772" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Arrestins have been implicated in the regulation of many G protein-coupled receptor signaling cascades. Mutations in two Drosophila photoreceptor-specific arrestin genes, arrestin 1 and arrestin 2, were generated. Analysis of the light response in these mutants shows that the Arr1 and Arr2 proteins are mediators of rhodopsin inactivation and are essential for the termination of the phototransduction cascade in vivo. The saturation of arrestin function by an excess of activated rhodopsin is responsible for a continuously activated state of the photoreceptors known as the prolonged depolarized afterpotential. In the absence of arrestins, photoreceptors undergo light-dependent retinal degeneration as a result of the continued activity of the phototransduction cascade. These results demonstrate the fundamental requirement for members of the arrestin protein family in the regulation of G protein-coupled receptors and signaling cascades in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dolph, P J -- Ranganathan, R -- Colley, N J -- Hardy, R W -- Socolich, M -- Zuker, C S -- R01 EY008768/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 25;260(5116):1910-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, La Jolla, CA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8316831" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genetic linkage analysis was used to determine whether a specific chromosomal locus could be implicated in families with a history of early onset cancer but with no other unique features. Close linkage of disease to anonymous microsatellite markers on chromosome 2 was demonstrated in two large kindreds. The pairwise lod scores for linkage to marker D2S123 in these kindreds were 6.39 and 1.45 at zero recombination, and multipoint linkage with flanking markers resulted in lod scores of 6.47 and 6.01. These results prove the existence of a genetically determined predisposition to colorectal cancer that has important ramifications for understanding and preventing this disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Peltomaki, P -- Aaltonen, L A -- Sistonen, P -- Pylkkanen, L -- Mecklin, J P -- Jarvinen, H -- Green, J S -- Jass, J R -- Weber, J L -- Leach, F S -- CA 35494/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 47527/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- HG 00248/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 7;260(5109):810-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medical Genetics, University of Helsinki, Finland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8484120" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: An introduced whitefly species, responsible for over a half billion dollars in damage to U.S. agricultural production in 1991, is morphologically indistinguishable from Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius). However, with the use of polymerase chain reaction-based DNA differentiation tests, allozymic frequency analyses, crossing experiments, and mating behavior studies, the introduced whitefly is found to be a distinct species. Recognition of this new species, the silverleaf whitefly, is critical in the search for management options.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perring, T M -- Cooper, A D -- Rodriguez, R J -- Farrar, C A -- Bellows, T S Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jan 1;259(5091):74-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside 92521.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8418497" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: When inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) receptors are activated, calcium is released from intracellular stores in excitatory propagating waves that annihilate each other upon collision. The annihilation phenomenon suggests the presence of an underlying refractory period that controls excitability. Enhanced calcium-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity might alter the refractory period of calcium release. Expression of messenger RNA encoding the avian calcium-ATPase (SERCA1) in Xenopus laevis oocytes increased the frequency of IP3-induced calcium waves and narrowed the width of individual calcium waves. The effect of SERCA1 expression on calcium wave frequency was dependent on the concentration of IP3 and was larger at higher (1 microM) than at lower (0.1 microM) concentrations of IP3. The results demonstrate that calcium pump activity can control IP3-mediated calcium signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Camacho, P -- Lechleiter, J D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Apr 9;260(5105):226-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Health Sciences Center, Charlottesville 22908.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8385800" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Xlsirts are a family of interspersed repeat RNAs from Xenopus laevis that contain from 3 to 13 repeat units (each 79 to 81 nucleotides long) flanked by unique sequences. They are homologous to the mammalian Xist gene that is involved in X chromosome inactivation. Xlsirt RNA appears first in the mitochondrial cloud (Balbiani body) in stage 2 oocytes and is then translocated as island-like structures to the vegetal cortex at early stage 3 coincident with the localization of the germ plasm. Exogenous Xlsirt RNA injected into oocytes translocates to the location of the endogenous RNA at that particular stage. The Xlsirt RNA repeat sequences are required for translocation and can cause the translocation of heterologous unique RNAs to the vegetal cortex.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kloc, M -- Spohr, G -- Etkin, L D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 10;262(5140):1712-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics, University of Texas, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston 77030.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7505061" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Type I diabetes is an autoimmune disease involving an interaction between an epigenetic event (possibly a viral infection), the pancreatic beta cells, and the immune system in a genetically susceptible host. The possibility that the type I interferons could mediate this interaction was tested with transgenic mice in which the insulin-producing beta cells expressed an interferon-alpha. These mice developed a hypoinsulinemic diabetes associated with a mixed inflammation centered on the islets. The inflammation and the diabetes were prevented with a neutralizing antibody to the interferon-alpha. Thus, the expression of interferon-alpha by the beta cells could be causal in the development of type I diabetes, which suggests a therapeutic approach to this disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stewart, T A -- Hultgren, B -- Huang, X -- Pitts-Meek, S -- Hully, J -- MacLachlan, N J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 25;260(5116):1942-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Endocrine Research, Genentech, Inc., South San Francisco, CA 94080.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8100367" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A fundamental question about cognition concerns how knowledge about a category is acquired through encounters with examples of the category. Amnesic patients and control subjects performed similarly at classifying novel patterns according to whether they belonged to the same category as a set of training patterns. In contrast, the amnesic patients were impaired at recognizing which dot patterns had been presented for training. Category learning appears to be independent of declarative (explicit) memory for training instances and independent of the brain structures essential for declarative memory that are damaged in amnesia. Knowledge about categories can be acquired implicitly by cumulating information from multiple examples.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Knowlton, B J -- Squire, L R -- MH24600/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 10;262(5140):1747-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Veterans Affairs Medical Center, San Diego, CA 92161.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8259522" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Although protection in animal models against intravenous challenges with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) has been reported, no previous vaccines have protected against a heterosexual route of infection. In this study, five of six macaques were protected against vaginal challenge when immunized with formalin-treated SIV in biodegradable microspheres by the intramuscular plus oral or plus intratracheal route. Oral immunization alone did not protect. After a second vaginal challenge, three of four intramuscularly primed and mucosally boosted macaques remained protected. The data suggest that protection against human immunodeficiency virus vaginal transmission could be provided by microsphere-based booster vaccines when used to immunize women who are systemically primed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Marx, P A -- Compans, R W -- Gettie, A -- Staas, J K -- Gilley, R M -- Mulligan, M J -- Yamshchikov, G V -- Chen, D -- Eldridge, J H -- AI28147/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 28;260(5112):1323-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉New Mexico Regional Primate Research Laboratory, New Mexico State University, Holloman Air Force Base 88330.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8493576" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Structures recently proposed for the FeMo-cofactor and P-cluster pair of the nitrogenase molybdenum-iron (MoFe)-protein from Azotobacter vinelandii have been crystallographically verified at 2.2 angstrom resolution. Significantly, no hexacoordinate sulfur atoms are observed in either type of metal center. Consequently, the six bridged iron atoms in the FeMo-cofactor are trigonally coordinated by nonprotein ligands, although there may be some iron-iron bonding interactions that could provide a fourth coordination interaction for these sites. Two of the cluster sulfurs in the P-cluster pair are very close together (approximately 2.1 angstroms), indicating that they form a disulfide bond. These findings indicate that a cavity exists in the interior of the FeMo-cofactor that could be involved in substrate binding and suggest that redox reactions at the P-cluster pair may be linked to transitions of two cluster-bound sulfurs between disulfide and sulfide oxidation states.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chan, M K -- Kim, J -- Rees, D C -- 1F32 GM15006/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 May 7;260(5109):792-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8484118" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The CD8 alpha cytoplasmic domain associates with p56lck, a nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinase. The biological relevance of CD8 alpha-Lck association in T cell development was tested with transgenic mice generated to express a CD8 alpha molecule with two amino acid substitutions in its cytoplasmic domain, which abolishes the association of CD8 alpha with Lck. The CD8 alpha mutant was analyzed in a CD8-/- background and in the context of the transgenic 2C T cell receptor. The development and function of CD8+ T cells in these mice were apparently normal. Thus, CD8 alpha-Lck association is not necessary for positive selection, negative selection, or CD8-dependent cytotoxic function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chan, I T -- Limmer, A -- Louie, M C -- Bullock, E D -- Fung-Leung, W P -- Mak, T W -- Loh, D Y -- AI 155322-13/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Sep 17;261(5128):1581-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Medicine, Genetics, and Molecular Microbiology, 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/8372352" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Mice that bear the X-linked immunodeficiency (xid) mutation have a B lymphocyte-specific defect resulting in an inability to make antibody responses to polysaccharide antigens. A backcross of 1114 progeny revealed the colocalization of xid with Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (btk) gene, which is implicated in the human immune deficiency, X-linked agammaglobulinemia. Mice that carry xid have a missense mutation that alters a highly conserved arginine near the amino-terminus of the btk protein, Btk. Because this region of Btk lies outside any obvious kinase domain, the xid mutation may define another aspect of tyrosine kinase function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thomas, J D -- Sideras, P -- Smith, C I -- Vorechovsky, I -- Chapman, V -- Paul, W E -- GM33160/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HG00277/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 16;261(5119):355-8.〈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/8332900" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The dU2AF50 protein is closely related to its mammalian counterpart and contains three carboxyl-terminal ribonucleoprotein consensus sequence RNA binding domains and an amino-terminal arginine- and serine-rich (R/S) domain. Recombinant dU2AF50 protein complements mammalian splicing extracts depleted of U2AF activity. Germline transformation of Drosophila with the dU2AF50 complementary DNA rescues a lethal mutation, establishing that the dU2AF50 gene is essential for viability. R/S domains have been found in numerous metazoan splicing factors, but their function is unknown. The mutation in Drosophila U2AF will allow in vivo analysis of a conserved R/S domain-containing general splicing factor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kanaar, R -- Roche, S E -- Beall, E L -- Green, M R -- Rio, D C -- R01-HD28063/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Oct 22;262(5133):569-73.〈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/7692602" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (GG transferase) is a two-component enzyme that attaches 20-carbon isoprenoid groups to cysteine residues in Rab proteins, a family of guanosine triphosphate-binding proteins that regulate vesicular traffic. The mutant gene in human choroideremia, an X-linked form of retinal degeneration, encodes a protein that resembles component A of rat Rab GG transferase. Lymphoblasts from choroideremia subjects showed a marked deficiency in the activity of component A, but not component B, of Rab GG transferase. The deficiency was more pronounced when the substrate was Rab3A, a synaptic vesicle protein, than it was when the substrate was Rab1A, a protein of the endoplasmic reticulum. The data imply the existence of multiple component A proteins, one of which is missing in choroideremia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Seabra, M C -- Brown, M S -- Goldstein, J L -- HL 20948/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jan 15;259(5093):377-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas 75235.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8380507" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMTX) is a form of hereditary neuropathy with demyelination. Recently, this disorder was mapped to chromosome Xq13.1. The gene for the gap junction protein connexin32 is located in the same chromosomal segment, which led to its consideration as a candidate gene for CMTX. With the use of Northern (RNA) blot and immunohistochemistry technique, it was found that connexin32 is normally expressed in myelinated peripheral nerve. Direct sequencing of the connexin32 gene showed seven different mutations in affected persons from eight CMTX families. These findings, a demonstration of inherited defects in a gap junction protein, suggest that connexin32 plays an important role in peripheral nerve.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bergoffen, J -- Scherer, S S -- Wang, S -- Scott, M O -- Bone, L J -- Paul, D L -- Chen, K -- Lensch, M W -- Chance, P F -- Fischbeck, K H -- GM37751/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS01565/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS08075/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 24;262(5142):2039-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania Medical School, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia 19104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8266101" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The propensity of an amino acid to form an alpha helix in a protein was determined by multiple amino substitutions at positions 44 and 131 in T4 lysozyme. These positions are solvent-exposed sites within the alpha helices that comprise, respectively, residues 39 to 50 and 126 to 134. Except for two acidic substitutions that may be involved in salt bridges, the changes in stability at the two sites agree well. The stability values also agree with those observed for corresponding amino acid substitutions in some model peptides. Thus, helix propensity values derived from model peptides can be applicable to proteins. Among the 20 naturally occurring amino acids, proline, glycine, and alanine each have a structurally unique feature that helps to explain their low or high helix propensities. For the remaining 17 amino acids, it appears that the side chain hydrophobic surface buried against the side of the helix contributes substantially to alpha helix propensity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blaber, M -- Zhang, X J -- Matthews, B W -- GM 21967/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 11;260(5114):1637-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8503008" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is an autosomal-dominant disorder that affects 1 in 8000 individuals. Amplification of an unstable trinucleotide CTG repeat, located within the 3' untranslated region of a gene, correlates with a more severe DM phenotype. In three cases, the number of CTG repeats was reduced during the transmission of the DM allele; in one of these cases, the number was reduced to within the normal range and correlated at least with a delay in the onset of clinical signs of DM. Haplotype data of six polymorphic markers in the DM gene region indicate that, in this latter case, two stretches of the affected chromosome had been exchanged with that region of the wild-type chromosome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Hoy, K L -- Tsilfidis, C -- Mahadevan, M S -- Neville, C E -- Barcelo, J -- Hunter, A G -- Korneluk, R G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Feb 5;259(5096):809-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Ottawa, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8094260" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Lysin, a protein from abalone sperm, creates a hole in the envelope of the egg, permitting the sperm to pass through the envelope and fuse with the egg. The structure of lysin, refined at 1.9 angstroms resolution, reveals an alpha-helical, amphipathic molecule. The surface of the protein exhibits three features: two tracks of basic residues that span the length of the molecule, a solvent-exposed cluster of aromatic and aliphatic amino acids, and an extended amino-terminal hypervariable domain that is species-specific. The structure suggests possible mechanisms of action.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shaw, A -- McRee, D E -- Vacquier, V D -- Stout, C D -- HD12986/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Dec 17;262(5141):1864-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037-1093.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8266073" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Nonsense mutations create a premature signal for the termination of translation of messenger RNA. Such mutations have been observed to cause a severe reduction in the amount of mutant allele transcript or to generate a peptide truncated at the carboxyl end. Analysis of fibrillin transcript from a patient with Marfan syndrome revealed the skipping of a constitutive exon containing a nonsense mutation. Similar results were observed for two nonsense mutations in the gene encoding ornithine delta-aminotransferase from patients with gyrate atrophy. All genomic DNA sequences flanking these exons that are known to influence RNA splicing were unaltered, which suggests that nonsense mutations can alter splice site selection in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dietz, H C -- Valle, D -- Francomano, C A -- Kendzior, R J Jr -- Pyeritz, R E -- Cutting, G R -- AR-41135/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- HG-00373/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- RR-00722/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jan 29;259(5095):680-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pediatrics, 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/8430317" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The three-dimensional solution structure of a complex between the DNA binding domain of the chicken erythroid transcription factor GATA-1 and its cognate DNA site has been determined with multidimensional heteronuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The DNA binding domain consists of a core which contains a zinc coordinated by four cysteines and a carboxyl-terminal tail. The core is composed of two irregular antiparallel beta sheets and an alpha helix, followed by a long loop that leads into the carboxyl-terminal tail. The amino-terminal part of the core, including the helix, is similar in structure, although not in sequence, to the amino-terminal zinc module of the glucocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain. In the other regions, the structures of these two DNA binding domains are entirely different. The DNA target site in contact with the protein spans eight base pairs. The helix and the loop connecting the two antiparallel beta sheets interact with the major groove of the DNA. The carboxyl-terminal tail, which is an essential determinant of specific binding, wraps around into the minor groove. The complex resembles a hand holding a rope with the palm and fingers representing the protein core and the thumb, the carboxyl-terminal tail. The specific interactions between GATA-1 and DNA in the major groove are mainly hydrophobic in nature, which accounts for the preponderance of thymines in the target site. A large number of interactions are observed with the phosphate backbone.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Omichinski, J G -- Clore, G M -- Schaad, O -- Felsenfeld, G -- Trainor, C -- Appella, E -- Stahl, S J -- Gronenborn, A M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 23;261(5120):438-46.〈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/8332909" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Structures of the protein-chromophore complex and the apoprotein form of neocarzinostatin were determined at 1.8 angstrom resolution. Neocarzinostatin is composed of a labile chromophore with DNA-cleaving activity and a stabilizing protein. The chromophore displays marked nonlinearity of the triple bonds and is bound noncovalently in a pocket formed by the two protein domains. The chromophore pi-face interacts with the phenyl ring edges of Phe52 and Phe78. The amino sugar and carbonate groups of the chromophore are solvent exposed, whereas the epoxide, acetylene groups, and carbon C-12, the site of nucleophilic thiol addition during chromophore activation, are unexposed. The position of the amino group of the chromophore carbohydrate relative to C-12 supports the idea that the amino group plays a role in thiol activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, K H -- Kwon, B M -- Myers, A G -- Rees, D C -- CA47148/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM45162/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 12;262(5136):1042-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8235619" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genetic and metabolic studies have been done on a large kindred in which several males are affected by a syndrome of borderline mental retardation and abnormal behavior. The types of behavior that occurred include impulsive aggression, arson, attempted rape, and exhibitionism. Analysis of 24-hour urine samples indicated markedly disturbed monoamine metabolism. This syndrome was associated with a complete and selective deficiency of enzymatic activity of monoamine oxidase A (MAOA). In each of five affected males, a point mutation was identified in the eighth exon of the MAOA structural gene, which changes a glutamine to a termination codon. Thus, isolated complete MAOA deficiency in this family is associated with a recognizable behavioral phenotype that includes disturbed regulation of impulsive aggression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brunner, H G -- Nelen, M -- Breakefield, X O -- Ropers, H H -- van Oost, B A -- NS 21921/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Oct 22;262(5133):578-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Human Genetics, University Hospital Nijmegen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8211186" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are present in the blood of some marine fishes and inhibit the growth of ice crystals at subzero temperatures by adsorption to the ice lattice. The solution structure of a Type III AFP was determined by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. These measurements indicate that this 66-residue protein has an unusual fold in which eight beta strands form two sheets of three antiparallel strands and one sheet of two antiparallel strands, and the triple-stranded sheets are packed orthogonally into a beta sandwich. This structure is completely different from the amphipathic, helical structure observed for Type I AFPs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sonnichsen, F D -- Sykes, B D -- Chao, H -- Davies, P L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Feb 19;259(5098):1154-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Protein Engineering Network of Centres of Excellence, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8438165" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A hemispheric asymmetry in the functional activation of the human motor cortex during contralateral (C) and ipsilateral (I) finger movements, especially in right-handed subjects, was documented with nuclear magnetic resonance imaging at high field strength (4 tesla). Whereas the right motor cortex was activated mostly during contralateral finger movements in both right-handed (C/I mean area of activation = 36.8) and left-handed (C/I = 29.9) subjects, the left motor cortex was activated substantially during ipsilateral movements in left-handed subjects (C/I = 5.4) and even more so in right-handed subjects (C/I = 1.3).〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, S G -- Ashe, J -- Hendrich, K -- Ellermann, J M -- Merkle, H -- Ugurbil, K -- Georgopoulos, A P -- HL32427/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL33600/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- RR08079/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 30;261(5121):615-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Magnetic Resonance Research (CMRR), University of Minnesota Medical School, Minneapolis 55455.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8342027" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The role of genetics in male sexual orientation was investigated by pedigree and linkage analyses on 114 families of homosexual men. Increased rates of same-sex orientation were found in the maternal uncles and male cousins of these subjects, but not in their fathers or paternal relatives, suggesting the possibility of sex-linked transmission in a portion of the population. DNA linkage analysis of a selected group of 40 families in which there were two gay brothers and no indication of nonmaternal transmission revealed a correlation between homosexual orientation and the inheritance of polymorphic markers on the X chromosome in approximately 64 percent of the sib-pairs tested. The linkage to markers on Xq28, the subtelomeric region of the long arm of the sex chromosome, had a multipoint lod score of 4.0 (P = 10(-5), indicating a statistical confidence level of more than 99 percent that at least one subtype of male sexual orientation is genetically influenced.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hamer, D H -- Hu, S -- Magnuson, V L -- Hu, N -- Pattatucci, A M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jul 16;261(5119):321-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Biochemistry, 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/8332896" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
