    Description: Saturn's giant moon Titan has a thick (1.5 bar) nitrogen atmosphere, which has a temperature structure that is controlled by the absorption of solar and thermal radiation by methane, hydrogen, and organic aerosols into which methane is irreversibly converted by photolysis. Previous studies of Titan's climate evolution have been done with the assumption that the methane abundance was maintained against photolytic depletion throughout Titan's history, either by continuous supply from the interior or by buffering by a surface or near surface reservoir. Radiative-convective and radiative-saturated equilibrium models of Titan's atmosphere show that methane depletion may have allowed Titan's atmosphere to cool so that nitrogen, its main constituent, condenses onto the surface, collapsing Titan into a Triton-like frozen state with a thin atmosphere.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lorenz, R D -- McKay, C P -- Lunine, J I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 31;275(5300):642-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Planetary Sciences, Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, University of Arizona, Tucson 85721, USA.rlorenz@pl.arizona.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9005844" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) group of transcription factors is retained in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells. NFAT activation is mediated in part by induced nuclear import. This process requires calcium-dependent dephosphorylation of NFAT caused by the phosphatase calcineurin. The c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylates NFAT4 on two sites. Mutational removal of the JNK phosphorylation sites caused constitutive nuclear localization of NFAT4. In contrast, JNK activation in calcineurin-stimulated cells caused nuclear exclusion of NFAT4. These findings show that the nuclear accumulation of NFAT4 promoted by calcineurin is opposed by the JNK signal transduction pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chow, C W -- Rincon, M -- Cavanagh, J -- Dickens, M -- Davis, R J -- CA58396/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA65831/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 28;278(5343):1638-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Program in Molecular Medicine, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA 01605, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9374467" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: During translation errors of aminoacylation are corrected in editing reactions which ensure that an amino acid is stably attached to its corresponding transfer RNA (tRNA). Previous studies have not shown whether the tRNA nucleotides needed for effecting translational editing are the same as or distinct from those required for aminoacylation, but several considerations have suggested that they are the same. Here, designed tRNAs that are highly active for aminoacylation but are not active in translational editing are presented. The editing reaction can be controlled by manipulation of nucleotides at the corner of the L-shaped tRNA. In contrast, these manipulations do not affect aminoacylation. These results demonstrate the segregation of nucleotide determinants for the editing and aminoacylation functions of tRNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hale, S P -- Auld, D S -- Schmidt, E -- Schimmel, P -- GM15539/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 23;276(5316):1250-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9157882" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The crystal structure of the adenine nucleotide exchange factor GrpE in complex with the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) domain of Escherichia coli DnaK [heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70)] was determined at 2.8 angstrom resolution. A dimer of GrpE binds asymmetrically to a single molecule of DnaK. The structure of the nucleotide-free ATPase domain in complex with GrpE resembles closely that of the nucleotide-bound mammalian Hsp70 homolog, except for an outward rotation of one of the subdomains of the protein. This conformational change is not consistent with tight nucleotide binding. Two long alpha helices extend away from the GrpE dimer and suggest a role for GrpE in peptide release from DnaK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Harrison, C J -- Hayer-Hartl, M -- Di Liberto, M -- Hartl, F -- Kuriyan, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 18;276(5311):431-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratories of Molecular Biophysics and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9103205" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Many neuropeptides and peptide hormones require amidation at the carboxyl terminus for activity. Peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) catalyzes the amidation of these diverse physiological regulators. The amino-terminal domain of the bifunctional PAM protein is a peptidylglycine alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM) with two coppers that cycle through cupric and cuprous oxidation states. The anomalous signal of the endogenous coppers was used to determine the structure of the catalytic core of oxidized rat PHM with and without bound peptide substrate. These structures strongly suggest that the PHM reaction proceeds via activation of substrate by a copper-bound oxygen species. The mechanistic and structural insight gained from the PHM structures can be directly extended to dopamine beta-monooxygenase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Prigge, S T -- Kolhekar, A S -- Eipper, B A -- Mains, R E -- Amzel, L M -- DK32949/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM44692/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 14;278(5341):1300-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9360928" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A selection strategy was devised to identify bacterial genes preferentially expressed when a bacterium associates with its host cell. Fourteen Salmonella typhimurium genes, which were under the control of at least four independent regulatory circuits, were identified to be selectively induced in host macrophages. Four genes encode virulence factors, including a component of a type III secretory apparatus. This selection methodology should be generally applicable to the identification of genes from pathogenic organisms that are induced upon association with host cells or tissues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Valdivia, R H -- Falkow, S -- AI26195/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- DK38707/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 26;277(5334):2007-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA 94305, USA. valdivia@cmgm.stanford.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9302299" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A genetic block was introduced in the first condensation step of the polyketide biosynthetic pathway that leads to the formation of 6-deoxyerythronolide B (6-dEB), the macrocyclic precursor of erythromycin. Exogenous addition of designed synthetic molecules to small-scale cultures of this null mutant resulted in highly selective multimilligram production of unnatural polyketides, including aromatic and ring-expanded variants of 6-dEB. Unexpected incorporation patterns were observed, illustrating the catalytic versatility of modular polyketide synthases. Further processing of some of these scaffolds by postpolyketide enzymes of the erythromycin pathway resulted in the generation of novel antibacterials with in vitro potency comparable to that of their natural counterparts.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jacobsen, J R -- Hutchinson, C R -- Cane, D E -- Khosla, C -- CA66736/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM22172/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM31925/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 18;277(5324):367-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemical Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-5025, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9219693" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Rho is implicated in the formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions in fibroblasts stimulated by extracellular signals such as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Rho-kinase is activated by Rho and may mediate some biological effects of Rho. Microinjection of the catalytic domain of Rho-kinase into serum-starved Swiss 3T3 cells induced the formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions, whereas microinjection of the inactive catalytic domain, the Rho-binding domain, or the pleckstrin-homology domain inhibited the LPA-induced formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions. Thus, Rho-kinase appears to mediate signals from Rho and to induce the formation of stress fibers and focal adhesions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Amano, M -- Chihara, K -- Kimura, K -- Fukata, Y -- Nakamura, N -- Matsuura, Y -- Kaibuchi, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Feb 28;275(5304):1308-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Signal Transduction, Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Ikoma 630-01, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9036856" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In experiments modeling the reactions of the reductive acetyl-coenzyme A pathway at hydrothermal temperatures, it was found that an aqueous slurry of coprecipitated NiS and FeS converted CO and CH3SH into the activated thioester CH3-CO-SCH3, which hydrolyzed to acetic acid. In the presence of aniline, acetanilide was formed. When NiS-FeS was modified with catalytic amounts of selenium, acetic acid and CH3SH were formed from CO and H2S alone. The reaction can be considered as the primordial initiation reaction for a chemoautotrophic origin of life.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Huber, C -- Wachtershauser, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 11;276(5310):245-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, Technische Universitat Munchen, Lichtenbergstrasse 4, D-85747 Garching, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9092471" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genetically distinct populations are an important component of biodiversity. This work estimates the number of populations per area of a sample of species from literature on population differentiation and the average range area of a species from a sample of distribution maps. This yields an estimate of about 220 populations per species, or 1.1 to 6.6 billion populations globally. Assuming that population extinction is a linear function of habitat loss, approximately 1800 populations per hour (16 million annually) are being destroyed in tropical forests alone.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hughes, J B -- Daily, G C -- Ehrlich, P R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 24;278(5338):689-92.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-5020, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9381179" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A leucine-rich nuclear export signal (NES) allows rapid export of proteins from cell nuclei. Microinjection studies revealed a role for the guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Ran in NES-mediated export. Nuclear injection of a Ran mutant (Thr24 --〉 Asn) blocked protein export but not import, whereas depletion of the Ran nucleotide exchange factor RCC1 blocked protein import but not export. However, injection of Ran GTPase-activating protein (RanGAP) into RCC1-depleted cell nuclei inhibited export. Coinjection with Ran mutants insensitive to RanGAP prevented this inhibition. Therefore, NES-mediated protein export appears to require a Ran-GTP complex but does not require Ran-dependent GTP hydrolysis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Richards, S A -- Carey, K L -- Macara, I G -- EST3207122/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- GM 50526/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 20;276(5320):1842-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, University of Vermont, Burlington, VT 05405, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9188526" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Circadian rhythmicity is universally associated with the ability to perceive light, and the oscillators ("clocks") giving rise to these rhythms, which are feedback loops based on transcription and translation, are reset by light. Although such loops must contain elements of positive and negative regulation, the clock genes analyzed to date-frq in Neurospora and per and tim in Drosophila-are associated only with negative feedback and their biochemical functions are largely inferred. The white collar-1 and white collar-2 genes, both global regulators of photoresponses in Neurospora, encode DNA binding proteins that contain PAS domains and are believed to act as transcriptional activators. Data shown here suggest that wc-1 is a clock-associated gene and wc-2 is a clock component; both play essential roles in the assembly or operation of the Neurospora circadian oscillator. Thus DNA binding and transcriptional activation can now be associated with a clock gene that may provide a positive element in the feedback loop. In addition, similarities between the PAS-domain regions of molecules involved in light perception and circadian rhythmicity in several organisms suggest an evolutionary link between ancient photoreceptor proteins and more modern proteins required for circadian oscillation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Crosthwaite, S K -- Dunlap, J C -- Loros, J J -- GM 34985/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- MH01186/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH44651/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 2;276(5313):763-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Dartmouth Medical School, Hanover, NH 03755-3844, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9115195" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The crystal structures of a germline antibody Fab fragment and its complex with hapten have been solved at 2.1 A resolution. These structures are compared with the corresponding crystal structures of the affinity-matured antibody, 48G7, which has a 30,000 times higher affinity for hapten as a result of nine replacement somatic mutations. Significant changes in the configuration of the combining site occur upon binding of hapten to the germline antibody, whereas hapten binds to the mature antibody by a lock-and-key fit mechanism. The reorganization of the combining site that was nucleated by hapten binding is further optimized by somatic mutations that occur up to 15 from bound hapten. These results suggest that the binding potential of the primary antibody repertoire may be significantly expanded by the ability of germline antibodies to adopt more than one combining-site configuration, with both antigen binding and somatic mutation stabilizing the configuration with optimal hapten complementarity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wedemayer, G J -- Patten, P A -- Wang, L H -- Schultz, P G -- Stevens, R C -- R01 AI39089/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 13;276(5319):1665-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9180069" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Two families of small peptides that bind to the human thrombopoietin receptor and compete with the binding of the natural ligand thrombopoietin (TPO) were identified from recombinant peptide libraries. The sequences of these peptides were not found in the primary sequence of TPO. Screening libraries of variants of one of these families under affinity-selective conditions yielded a 14-amino acid peptide (Ile-Glu-Gly-Pro-Thr-Leu-Arg-Gln-Trp-Leu-Ala-Ala-Arg-Ala) with high affinity (dissociation constant approximately 2 nanomolar) that stimulates the proliferation of a TPO-responsive Ba/F3 cell line with a median effective concentration (EC50) of 400 nanomolar. Dimerization of this peptide by a carboxyl-terminal linkage to a lysine branch produced a compound with an EC50 of 100 picomolar, which was equipotent to the 332-amino acid natural cytokine in cell-based assays. The peptide dimer also stimulated the in vitro proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes from human bone marrow cells and promoted an increase in platelet count when administered to normal mice.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cwirla, S E -- Balasubramanian, P -- Duffin, D J -- Wagstrom, C R -- Gates, C M -- Singer, S C -- Davis, A M -- Tansik, R L -- Mattheakis, L C -- Boytos, C M -- Schatz, P J -- Baccanari, D P -- Wrighton, N C -- Barrett, R W -- Dower, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 13;276(5319):1696-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Affymax Research Institute, 4001 Miranda Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9180079" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Apoptosis of Jurkat T cells induced the caspase-mediated proteolytic cleavage of p21-activated kinase 2 (PAK2). Cleavage occurred between the amino-terminal regulatory domain and the carboxyl-terminal catalytic domain, which generated a constitutively active PAK2 fragment. Stable Jurkat cell lines that expressed a dominant-negative PAK mutant were resistant to the Fas-induced formation of apoptotic bodies, but had an enhanced externalization of phosphatidylserine at the cell surface. Thus, proteolytic activation of PAK2 represents a guanosine triphosphatase-independent mechanism of PAK regulation that allows PAK2 to regulate morphological changes that are seen in apoptotic cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rudel, T -- Bokoch, G M -- GM39434/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL48008/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 6;276(5318):1571-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, The Scripps Research Institute, 10550 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9171063" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Caenorhabditis elegans survival gene ced-9 regulates ced-4 activity and inhibits cell death, but the mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. Through a genetic screen for CED-4-binding proteins, CED-9 was identified as an interacting partner of CED-4. CED-9, but not loss-of-function mutants, associated specifically with CED-4 in yeast or mammalian cells. The CED-9 protein localized primarily to intracellular membranes and the perinuclear region, whereas CED-4 was distributed in the cytosol. Expression of CED-9, but not a mutant lacking the carboxy-terminal hydrophobic domain, targeted CED-4 from the cytosol to intracellular membranes in mammalian cells. Thus, the actions of CED-4 and CED-9 are directly linked, which could provide the basis for the regulation of programmed cell death in C. elegans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wu, D -- Wallen, H D -- Nunez, G -- CA-64556/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32A107413-03/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Feb 21;275(5303):1126-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Comprehensive Cancer Center, The University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9027313" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Long-term potentiation (LTP), a cellular model of learning and memory, requires calcium-dependent protein kinases. Induction of LTP increased the phosphorus-32 labeling of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors (AMPA-Rs), which mediate rapid excitatory synaptic transmission. This AMPA-R phosphorylation appeared to be catalyzed by Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-KII): (i) it correlated with the activation and autophosphorylation of CaM-KII, (ii) it was blocked by the CaM-KII inhibitor KN-62, and (iii) its phosphorus-32 peptide map was the same as that of GluR1 coexpressed with activated CaM-KII in HEK-293 cells. This covalent modulation of AMPA-Rs in LTP provides a postsynaptic molecular mechanism for synaptic plasticity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Barria, A -- Muller, D -- Derkach, V -- Griffith, L C -- Soderling, T R -- NS27037/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM054408/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 27;276(5321):2042-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vollum Institute, Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland, OR 97201, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9197267" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Catalytic protein subunits of telomerase from the ciliate Euplotes aediculatus and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae contain reverse transcriptase motifs. Here the homologous genes from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and human are identified. Disruption of the S. pombe gene resulted in telomere shortening and senescence, and expression of mRNA from the human gene correlated with telomerase activity in cell lines. Sequence comparisons placed the telomerase proteins in the reverse transcriptase family but revealed hallmarks that distinguish them from retroviral and retrotransposon relatives. Thus, the proposed telomerase catalytic subunits are phylogenetically conserved and represent a deep branch in the evolution of reverse transcriptases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nakamura, T M -- Morin, G B -- Chapman, K B -- Weinrich, S L -- Andrews, W H -- Lingner, J -- Harley, C B -- Cech, T R -- GM28039/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Aug 15;277(5328):955-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309-0215, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9252327" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI), a potent antimicrobial protein of 456 residues, binds to and neutralizes lipopolysaccharides from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. At a resolution of 2.4 angstroms, the crystal structure of human BPI shows a boomerang-shaped molecule formed by two similar domains. Two apolar pockets on the concave surface of the boomerang each bind a molecule of phosphatidylcholine, primarily by interacting with their acyl chains; this suggests that the pockets may also bind the acyl chains of lipopolysaccharide. As a model for the related plasma lipid transfer proteins, BPI illuminates a mechanism of lipid transfer for this protein family.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beamer, L J -- Carroll, S F -- Eisenberg, D -- GM31299/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 20;276(5320):1861-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉UCLA-DOE Laboratory of Structural Biology and Molecular Medicine, Molecular Biology Institute, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9188532" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Indirect evidence for life on Mars has been reported from the study of meteorite ALH84001. The formation temperature of the carbonates is controversial; some estimates suggest 20 degrees to 80 degrees C, whereas others exceed 650 degrees C. Paleomagnetism can be used to distinguish between these possibilities because heating can remagnetize ferrimagnetic minerals. Study of two adjacent pyroxene grains from the crushed zone of ALH84001 shows that each possesses a stable natural remanent magnetization (NRM), implying that Mars had a substantial magnetic field when the grains cooled. However, NRM directions from these particles differ, implying that the meteorite has not been heated significantly since the formation of the internal crushed zone about 4 billion years ago. The carbonate globules postdate this brecciation, and thus formed at low temperatures.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kirschvink, J L -- Maine, A T -- Vali, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 14;275(5306):1629-33.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, California Institute of Technology, 170-25, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9054354" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: On the basis of x-ray diffraction data to a resolution of 2.9 angstroms, atomic models of most protein components of the bovine cytochrome bc1 complex were built, including core 1, core 2, cytochrome b, subunit 6, subunit 7, a carboxyl-terminal fragment of cytochrome c1, and an amino-terminal fragment of the iron-sulfur protein. The positions of the four iron centers within the bc1 complex and the binding sites of the two specific respiratory inhibitors antimycin A and myxothiazol were identified. The membrane-spanning region of each bc1 complex monomer consists of 13 transmembrane helices, eight of which belong to cytochrome b. Closely interacting monomers are arranged as symmetric dimers and form cavities through which the inhibitor binding pockets can be accessed. The proteins core 1 and core 2 are structurally similar to each other and consist of two domains of roughly equal size and identical folding topology.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Xia, D -- Yu, C A -- Kim, H -- Xia, J Z -- Kachurin, A M -- Zhang, L -- Yu, L -- Deisenhofer, J -- GM 30721/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 4;277(5322):60-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Department of Biochemistry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75235, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9204897" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Transmembrane receptors for hormones, neurotransmitters, light, and odorants mediate their cellular effects by activating heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins). Crystal structures have revealed contact surfaces between G protein subunits, but not the surfaces or molecular mechanism through which Galphabetagamma responds to activation by transmembrane receptors. Such a surface was identified from the results of testing 100 mutant alpha subunits of the retinal G protein transducin for their ability to interact with rhodopsin. Sites at which alanine substitutions impaired this interaction mapped to two distinct Galpha surfaces: a betagamma-binding surface and a putative receptor-interacting surface. On the basis of these results a mechanism for receptor-catalyzed exchange of guanosine diphosphate for guanosine triphosphate is proposed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Onrust, R -- Herzmark, P -- Chi, P -- Garcia, P D -- Lichtarge, O -- Kingsley, C -- Bourne, H R -- CA-54427/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM-27800/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 17;275(5298):381-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143-0450, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8994033" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: CD1 represents a third lineage of antigen-presenting molecules that are distantly related to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules in the immune system. The crystal structure of mouse CD1d1, corresponding to human CD1d, at 2.8 resolution shows that CD1 adopts an MHC fold that is more closely related to that of MHC class I than to that of MHC class II. The binding groove, although significantly narrower, is substantially larger because of increased depth and it has only two major pockets that are almost completely hydrophobic. The extreme hydrophobicity and shape of the binding site are consistent with observations that human CD1b and CD1c can present mycobacterial cell wall antigens, such as mycolic acid and lipoarabinomannans. However, mouse CD1d1 can present very hydrophobic peptides, but must do so in a very different way from MHC class Ia and class II molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zeng, Z -- Castano, A R -- Segelke, B W -- Stura, E A -- Peterson, P A -- Wilson, I A -- CA-58896/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 18;277(5324):339-45.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and the Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology at the Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9219685" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

This heme peroxidase occurs in coral as part of a fusion protein, the other component of which is a lipoxygenase that forms the hydroperoxide substrate. The end product is an unstable epoxide (an allene oxide) that is a potential precursor of prostaglandin-like molecules. These results extend the known chemistry of catalase-like proteins and reveal a distinct type of enzymatic construct involved in the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Koljak, R -- Boutaud, O -- Shieh, B H -- Samel, N -- Brash, A R -- GM49502/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- TW00404/TW/FIC NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 26;277(5334):1994-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN 37232-6602, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9302294" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The caspase-3 (CPP32, apopain, YAMA) family of cysteinyl proteases has been implicated as key mediators of apoptosis in mammalian cells. Gelsolin was identified as a substrate for caspase-3 by screening the translation products of small complementary DNA pools for sensitivity to cleavage by caspase-3. Gelsolin was cleaved in vivo in a caspase-dependent manner in cells stimulated by Fas. Caspase-cleaved gelsolin severed actin filaments in vitro in a Ca2+-independent manner. Expression of the gelsolin cleavage product in multiple cell types caused the cells to round up, detach from the plate, and undergo nuclear fragmentation. Neutrophils isolated from mice lacking gelsolin had delayed onset of both blebbing and DNA fragmentation, following apoptosis induction, compared with wild-type neutrophils. Thus, cleaved gelsolin may be one physiological effector of morphologic change during apoptosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kothakota, S -- Azuma, T -- Reinhard, C -- Klippel, A -- Tang, J -- Chu, K -- McGarry, T J -- Kirschner, M W -- Koths, K -- Kwiatkowski, D J -- Williams, L T -- P01 HL48743/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL54188/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 10;278(5336):294-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chiron Corporation, Emeryville, CA 94608, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9323209" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Structure determination at 2.4 angstrom resolution shows that lambda-exonuclease consists of three subunits that form a toroid. The central channel is funnel shaped, tapering from an inner diameter of about 30 angstroms at the wider end to 15 angstroms at the narrow end. This is adequate to accommodate the DNA substrate and thus provides a structural basis for the ability of the enzyme to sequentially hydrolyze thousands of nucleotides in a highly processive manner. The results also suggest the locations of the active sites and the constraints that limit cleavage to a single strand.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kovall, R -- Matthews, B W -- GM20066/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 19;277(5333):1824-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and Department of Physics, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9295273" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumor suppressor protein binds to beta-catenin, a protein recently shown to interact with Tcf and Lef transcription factors. The gene encoding hTcf-4, a Tcf family member that is expressed in colonic epithelium, was cloned and characterized. hTcf-4 transactivates transcription only when associated with beta-catenin. Nuclei of APC-/- colon carcinoma cells were found to contain a stable beta-catenin-hTcf-4 complex that was constitutively active, as measured by transcription of a Tcf reporter gene. Reintroduction of APC removed beta-catenin from hTcf-4 and abrogated the transcriptional transactivation. Constitutive transcription of Tcf target genes, caused by loss of APC function, may be a crucial event in the early transformation of colonic epithelium.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Korinek, V -- Barker, N -- Morin, P J -- van Wichen, D -- de Weger, R -- Kinzler, K W -- Vogelstein, B -- Clevers, H -- CA57345/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 21;275(5307):1784-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, University Hospital, Post Office Box 85500, 3508 GA Utrecht, Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9065401" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) catalyzes the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras and several other cellular signal transduction proteins. The essential nature of this modification for proper function of these proteins has led to the emergence of FTase as a target for the development of new anticancer therapy. Inhibition of this enzyme suppresses the transformed phenotype in cultured cells and causes tumor regression in animal models. The crystal structure of heterodimeric mammalian FTase was determined at 2.25 angstrom resolution. The structure shows a combination of two unusual domains: a crescent-shaped seven-helical hairpin domain and an alpha-alpha barrel domain. The active site is formed by two clefts that intersect at a bound zinc ion. One cleft contains a nine-residue peptide that may mimic the binding of the Ras substrate; the other cleft is lined with highly conserved aromatic residues appropriate for binding the farnesyl isoprenoid with required specificity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Park, H W -- Boduluri, S R -- Moomaw, J F -- Casey, P J -- Beese, L S -- GM46372/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM52382/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 21;275(5307):1800-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9065406" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A highly selective, colorimetric polynucleotide detection method based on mercaptoalkyloligonucleotide-modified gold nanoparticle probes is reported. Introduction of a single-stranded target oligonucleotide (30 bases) into a solution containing the appropriate probes resulted in the formation of a polymeric network of nanoparticles with a concomitant red-to-pinkish/purple color change. Hybridization was facilitated by freezing and thawing of the solutions, and the denaturation of these hybrid materials showed transition temperatures over a narrow range that allowed differentiation of a variety of imperfect targets. Transfer of the hybridization mixture to a reverse-phase silica plate resulted in a blue color upon drying that could be detected visually. The unoptimized system can detect about 10 femtomoles of an oligonucleotide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Elghanian, R -- Storhoff, J J -- Mucic, R C -- Letsinger, R L -- Mirkin, C A -- GM 10265/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Aug 22;277(5329):1078-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9262471" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In vertebrates, the presence of multiple heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) indicates that these factors may be regulated by distinct stress signals. HSF3 was specifically activated in unstressed proliferating cells by direct binding to the c-myb proto-oncogene product (c-Myb). These factors formed a complex through their DNA binding domains that stimulated the nuclear entry and formation of the transcriptionally active trimer of HSF3. Because c-Myb participates in cellular proliferation, this regulatory pathway may provide a link between cellular proliferation and the stress response.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kanei-Ishii, C -- Tanikawa, J -- Nakai, A -- Morimoto, R I -- Ishii, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 11;277(5323):246-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, Tsukuba Life Science Center, RIKEN, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9211854" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The three-dimensional structure of the complex between human H-Ras bound to guanosine diphosphate and the guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-activating domain of the human GTPase-activating protein p120GAP (GAP-334) in the presence of aluminum fluoride was solved at a resolution of 2.5 angstroms. The structure shows the partly hydrophilic and partly hydrophobic nature of the communication between the two molecules, which explains the sensitivity of the interaction toward both salts and lipids. An arginine side chain (arginine-789) of GAP-334 is supplied into the active site of Ras to neutralize developing charges in the transition state. The switch II region of Ras is stabilized by GAP-334, thus allowing glutamine-61 of Ras, mutation of which activates the oncogenic potential, to participate in catalysis. The structural arrangement in the active site is consistent with a mostly associative mechanism of phosphoryl transfer and provides an explanation for the activation of Ras by glycine-12 and glutamine-61 mutations. Glycine-12 in the transition state mimic is within van der Waals distance of both arginine-789 of GAP-334 and glutamine-61 of Ras, and even its mutation to alanine would disturb the arrangements of residues in the transition state.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scheffzek, K -- Ahmadian, M R -- Kabsch, W -- Wiesmuller, L -- Lautwein, A -- Schmitz, F -- Wittinghofer, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 18;277(5324):333-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Max-Planck-Institut fur molekulare Physiologie, Abteilung Strukturelle Biologie, Rheinlanddamm 201, 44139 Dortmund, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9219684" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The controversial question of how thiamine diphosphate, the biologically active form of vitamin B1, is activated in different enzymes has been addressed. Activation of the coenzyme was studied by measuring thermodynamics and kinetics of deprotonation at the carbon in the 2-position (C2) of thiamine diphosphate in the enzymes pyruvate decarboxylase and transketolase by use of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, proton/deuterium exchange, coenzyme analogs, and site-specific mutant enzymes. Interaction of a glutamate with the nitrogen in the 1'-position in the pyrimidine ring activated the 4'-amino group to act as an efficient proton acceptor for the C2 proton. The protein component accelerated the deprotonation of the C2 atom by several orders of magnitude, beyond the rate of the overall enzyme reaction. Therefore, the earlier proposed concerted mechanism or stabilization of a C2 carbanion can be excluded.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kern, D -- Kern, G -- Neef, H -- Tittmann, K -- Killenberg-Jabs, M -- Wikner, C -- Schneider, G -- Hubner, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 3;275(5296):67-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut fur Biochemie, Martin-Luther Universitat Halle-Wittenberg, Kurt-Mothes-Strasse 3, D-06120 Halle, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8974393" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Many biological recognition interactions involve ligands and receptors that are tethered rather than rigidly bound on a cell surface. A surface forces apparatus was used to directly measure the force-distance interaction between a polymer-tethered ligand and its receptor. At separations near the fully extended tether length, the ligands rapidly lock onto their binding sites, pulling the ligand and receptor together. The measured interaction potential and its dynamics can be modeled with standard theories of polymer and colloidal interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wong, J Y -- Kuhl, T L -- Israelachvili, J N -- Mullah, N -- Zalipsky, S -- GM 47334/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM17876/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Feb 7;275(5301):820-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemical Engineering, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106, USA. jywong@engineering.ucsb.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9012346" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Extinction episodes, such as the anthropogenic one currently under way, result in a pruned tree of life. But what fraction of the underlying evolutionary history survives when k of n species in a taxon are lost? This is relevant both to how species loss has translated into a loss of evolutionary history and to assigning conservation priorities. Here it is shown that approximately 80 percent of the underlying tree of life can survive even when approximately 95 percent of species are lost, and that algorithms that maximize the amount of evolutionary history preserved are not much better than choosing the survivors at random. Given the political, economic, and social realities constraining conservation biology, these findings may be helpful.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nee, S -- May, R M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 24;278(5338):692-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Zoology, Oxford University, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PS, UK. sean.nee@zoo.ox.ac.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9381180" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The epithelium that lines the gut is impermeable to macromolecules and microorganisms, except in Peyer's patches (PPs), where the lymphoid follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) contains M cells that transport antigens and microorganisms. A cultured system that reproduces the main characteristics of FAE and M cells was established by cultivation of PP lymphocytes with the differentiated human intestinal cell line Caco-2. Lymphocytes settled into the epithelial monolayer, inducing reorganization of the brush border and a temperature-dependent transport of particles and Vibrio cholerae. This model system could prove useful for intestinal physiology, vaccine research, and drug delivery studies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kerneis, S -- Bogdanova, A -- Kraehenbuhl, J P -- Pringault, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Aug 15;277(5328):949-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research, and Institute of Biochemistry, University of Lausanne, CH-1066 Epalinges-Lausanne, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9252325" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Transport of membrane proteins between intracellular compartments requires specific sequences in the protein cytoplasmic domain to direct packaging into vesicle shuttles. A sequence that mediates export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has proved elusive. A di-acidic signal (Asp-X-Glu, where X represents any amino acid) on the cytoplasmic tail of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) and other cargo molecules was required for efficient recruitment to vesicles mediating export from the ER in baby hamster kidney cells. The existence of such a signal provides evidence that export from the ER occurs through a selective mechanism.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nishimura, N -- Balch, W E -- GM 42336/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 25;277(5325):556-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, 10550 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9228004" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The three-dimensional structure of the enzyme 3-oxo-delta5-steroid isomerase (E.C. 5.3.3.1), a 28-kilodalton symmetrical dimer, was solved by multidimensional heteronuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The two independently folded monomers pack together by means of extensive hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. Each monomer comprises three alpha helices and a six-strand mixed beta-pleated sheet arranged to form a deep hydrophobic cavity. Catalytically important residues Tyr14 (general acid) and Asp38 (general base) are located near the bottom of the cavity and positioned as expected from mechanistic hypotheses. An unexpected acid group (Asp99) is also located in the active site adjacent to Tyr14, and kinetic and binding studies of the Asp99 to Ala mutant demonstrate that Asp99 contributes to catalysis by stabilizing the intermediate.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wu, Z R -- Ebrahimian, S -- Zawrotny, M E -- Thornburg, L D -- Perez-Alvarado, G C -- Brothers, P -- Pollack, R M -- Summers, M F -- GM38155/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM49082/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 18;276(5311):415-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Maryland Baltimore County, 1000 Hilltop Circle, Baltimore, MD 21250.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9103200" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The formation of vibrationally excited heme upon photodissociation of carbonmonoxy myoglobin and its subsequent vibrational energy relaxation was monitored by picosecond anti-Stokes resonance Raman spectroscopy. The anti-Stokes intensity of the nu4 band showed immediate generation of vibrationally excited hemes and biphasic decay of the excited populations. The best fit to double exponentials gave time constants of 1.9 +/- 0.6 and 16 +/- 9 picoseconds for vibrational population decay and 3.0 +/- 1.0 and 25 +/- 14 picoseconds for temperature relaxation of the photolyzed heme when a Boltzmann distribution was assumed. The decay of the nu4 anti-Stokes intensity was accompanied by narrowing and frequency upshift of the Stokes counterpart. This direct monitoring of the cooling dynamics of the heme cofactor within the globin matrix allows the characterization of the vibrational energy flow through the protein moiety and to the water bath.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mizutani, Y -- Kitagawa, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 17;278(5337):443-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Molecular Science, Okazaki National Research Institutes, Myodaiji, Okazaki 444, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9334299" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A new paradigm for oxygen activation is required for enzymes such as methane monooxygenase (MMO), for which catalysis depends on a nonheme diiron center instead of the more familiar Fe-porphyrin cofactor. On the basis of precedents from synthetic diiron complexes, a high-valent Fe2(micro-O)2 diamond core has been proposed as the key oxidizing species for MMO and other nonheme diiron enzymes such as ribonucleotide reductase and fatty acid desaturase. The presence of a single short Fe-O bond (1.77 angstroms) per Fe atom and an Fe-Fe distance of 2.46 angstroms in MMO reaction intermediate Q, obtained from extended x-ray absorption fine structure and Mossbauer analysis, provides spectroscopic evidence that the diiron center in Q has an Fe2IVO2 diamond core.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shu, L -- Nesheim, J C -- Kauffmann, K -- Munck, E -- Lipscomb, J D -- Que, L Jr -- GM-08277/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-22701/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-40466/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM040466/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 24;275(5299):515-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Center for Metals in Biocatalysis, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8999792" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Arrest of the cell cycle at the G2 checkpoint, induced by DNA damage, requires inhibitory phosphorylation of the kinase Cdc2 in both fission yeast and human cells. The kinase Wee1 and the phosphatase Cdc25, which regulate Cdc2 phosphorylation, were evaluated as targets of Chk1, a kinase essential for the checkpoint. Fission yeast cdc2-3w Deltacdc25 cells, which express activated Cdc2 and lack Cdc25, were responsive to Wee1 but insensitive to Chk1 and irradiation. Expression of large amounts of Chk1 produced the same phenotype as did loss of the cdc25 gene in cdc2-3w cells. Cdc25 associated with Chk1 in vivo and was phosphorylated when copurified in Chk1 complexes. These findings identify Cdc25, but not Wee1, as a target of the DNA damage checkpoint.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Furnari, B -- Rhind, N -- Russell, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 5;277(5331):1495-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9278510" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: An image of comet Hale-Bopp (C/1995 O1) in soft x-rays reveals a central emission offset from the nucleus, as well as an extended emission feature that does not correlate with the dust jets seen at optical wavelengths. Neon was found to be depleted in the cometary ice by more than a factor of 25 relative to solar abundance, which suggests that ices in Hale-Bopp formed at (or later experienced) temperatures higher than 25 kelvin. A helium line emission at a wavelength of 584 angstroms was detected and may be attributable to charge transfer of solar wind alpha particles in the cometary coma. Ionized oxygen and another helium line contribute to an emission observed at 538 angstroms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Krasnopolsky, V A -- Mumma, M J -- Abbott, M -- Flynn, B C -- Meech, K J -- Yeomans, D K -- Feldman, P D -- Cosmovici, C B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 5;277(5331):1488-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Catholic University of America, Washington, DC 20064, USA. ys2VK@lepvax.gsfc.nasa.gov 20771, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9278508" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Hepatocyte nuclear factors 1 and 4 (HNF-1 and HNF-4) are liver-enriched transcription factors that function in the regulation of several liver-specific genes. HNF-1 activates genes containing promoters with HNF-1 binding sites. However, this factor negatively regulates its own expression and that of other HNF-4-dependent genes that lack HNF-1 binding sites in their promoter region. This repression is exerted by a direct interaction of HNF-1 with AF2, the main activation domain of HNF-4. The dual functions of gene activation and repression suggest that HNF-1 is a global regulator of the transcriptional network involved in the maintenance of hepatocyte-specific phenotype.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ktistaki, E -- Talianidis, I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 4;277(5322):109-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas, Post Office Box 1527, 711 10 Heraklion, Crete, Greece.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9204893" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The infrared spectrum of hot water observed in a sunspot has been assigned. The high temperature of the sunspot (3200 K) gave rise to a highly congested pure rotational spectrum in the 10-micrometer region that involved energy levels at least halfway to dissociation. Traditional spectroscopy, based on perturbation theory, is inadequate for this problem. Instead, accurate variational solutions of the vibration-rotation Schrodinger equation were used to make assignments, revealing unexpected features, including rotational difference bands and fewer degeneracies than anticipated. These results indicate that a shift away from perturbation theory to first principles calculations is necessary in order to assign spectra of hot polyatomic molecules such as water.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Polyansky, O L -- Zobov, N F -- Viti, S -- Tennyson, J -- Bernath, P F -- Wallace, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 18;277(5324):346-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physics and Astronomy, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9219686" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Thermal infrared (IR) imaging and spectroscopy of comet Hale-Bopp (C/1995 O1) during June, August, and September 1996 traced the development of the dust coma several months before perihelion. Images revealed nightly variations in the brightness of the inner coma from 1 to 12 June that were correlated with the appearance of a northward-pointing jet. The central IR flux increased by a factor of 8 between 1 June and 30 September, and the September data showed IR jets that corresponded to similar structures that were visible in reflected sunlight at shorter wavelengths. At all epochs, 8- to 13-micrometer spectra of the central coma revealed a strong silicate emission feature, including an 11.2-micrometer feature indicative of crystalline olivine, even when the comet was at a heliocentric distance of 4.1 astronomical units.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hayward, T L -- Hanner, M S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 28;275(5308):1907-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Radiophysics and Space Research, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA. hayward@astrosun.tn.cornell.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9072961" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The telomerase ribonucleoprotein catalyzes the addition of new telomeres onto chromosome ends. A gene encoding a mammalian telomerase homolog called TP1 (telomerase-associated protein 1) was identified and cloned. TP1 exhibited extensive amino acid similarity to the Tetrahymena telomerase protein p80 and was shown to interact specifically with mammalian telomerase RNA.

    Description: Activation of the nuclear factor of activated T cells transcription factor (NF-AT) is a key event underlying lymphocyte action. The CAML (calcium-modulator and cyclophilin ligand) protein is a coinducer of NF-AT activation when overexpressed in Jurkat T cells. A member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily was isolated by virtue of its affinity for CAML. Cross-linking of this lymphocyte-specific protein, designated TACI (transmembrane activator and CAML-interactor), on the surface of transfected Jurkat cells with TACI-specific antibodies led to activation of the transcription factors NF-AT, AP-1, and NFkappaB. TACI-induced activation of NF-AT was specifically blocked by a dominant-negative CAML mutant, thus implicating CAML as a signaling intermediate.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉von Bulow, G U -- Bram, R J -- CA21765/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 3;278(5335):138-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Experimental Oncology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 332 North Lauderdale, Memphis, TN 38105, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9311921" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: CCR5 and CD4 are coreceptors for immunodeficiency virus entry into target cells. The gp120 envelope glycoprotein from human immunodeficiency virus strain HIV-1(YU2) bound human CCR5 (CCR5hu) or rhesus macaque CCR5 (CCR5rh) only in the presence of CD4. The gp120 from simian immunodeficiency virus strain SIVmac239 bound CCR5rh without CD4, but CCR5hu remained CD4-dependent. The CD4-independent binding of SIVmac239 gp120 depended on a single amino acid, Asp13, in the CCR5rh amino-terminus. Thus, CCR5-binding moieties on the immunodeficiency virus envelope glycoprotein can be generated by interaction with CD4 or by direct interaction with the CCR5 amino-terminus. These results may have implications for the evolution of receptor use among lentiviruses as well as utility in the development of effective intervention.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Martin, K A -- Wyatt, R -- Farzan, M -- Choe, H -- Marcon, L -- Desjardins, E -- Robinson, J -- Sodroski, J -- Gerard, C -- Gerard, N P -- AI41581/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- HL36162/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL51366/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 21;278(5342):1470-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Perlmutter Laboratory, Children's Hospital, Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9367961" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Timely deactivation of kinase cascades is crucial to the normal control of cell signaling and is partly accomplished by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). The catalytic (alpha) subunit of the serine-threonine kinase casein kinase 2 (CK2) bound to PP2A in vitro and in mitogen-starved cells; binding required the integrity of a sequence motif common to CK2alpha and SV40 small t antigen. Overexpression of CK2alpha resulted in deactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) and suppression of cell growth. Moreover, CK2alpha inhibited the transforming activity of oncogenic Ras, but not that of constitutively activated MEK. Thus, CK2alpha may regulate the deactivation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Heriche, J K -- Lebrin, F -- Rabilloud, T -- Leroy, D -- Chambaz, E M -- Goldberg, Y -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 9;276(5314):952-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique, Departement de Biologie Moleculaire et Structurale, Laboratoire de Biochimie des Regulations Cellulaires Endocrines, Unite 244, F-38054 Grenoble Cedex 9, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9139659" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Palmitoylation of the alpha subunit of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein Gz inhibited by more than 90 percent its response to the guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-accelerating activity of Gz GAP, a Gz-selective member of the regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) protein family of GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). Palmitoylation both decreased the affinity of Gz GAP for the GTP-bound form of Galphaz by at least 90 percent and decreased the maximum rate of GTP hydrolysis. Inhibition was reversed by removal of the palmitoyl group by dithiothreitol. Palmitoylation of Galphaz also inhibited its response to the GAP activity of Galpha-interacting protein (GAIP), another RGS protein, and palmitoylation of Galphai1 inhibited its response to RGS4. The extent of inhibition of Gz GAP, GAIP, RGS4, and RGS10 correlated roughly with their intrinsic GAP activities for the Galpha target used in the assay. Reversible palmitoylation is thus a major determinant of Gz deactivation after its stimulation by receptors, and may be a general mechanism for prolonging or potentiating G-protein signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tu, Y -- Wang, J -- Ross, E M -- GM30355/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 7;278(5340):1132-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75235-9041, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9353196" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The martian meteorite ALH84001 contains small, disk-shaped concretions of carbonate with concentric chemical and mineralogical zonation. Oxygen isotope compositions of these concretions, measured by ion microprobe, range from delta18O = +9.5 to +20.5 per thousand. Most of the core of one concretion is homogeneous (16.7 +/- 1.2 per thousand) and over 5 per thousand higher in delta18O than a second concretion. Orthopyroxene that hosts the secondary carbonates is isotopically homogeneous (delta18O = 4.6 +/- 1.2 per thousand). Secondary SiO2 has delta18O = 20.4 per thousand. Carbon isotope ratios measured from the core of one concretion average delta13C = 46 +/- 8 per thousand, consistent with formation on Mars. The isotopic variations and mineral compositions offer no evidence for high temperature (〉650 degrees C) carbonate precipitation and suggest non-equilibrium processes at low temperatures (〈 approximately 300 degrees C).〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Valley, J W -- Eiler, J M -- Graham, C M -- Gibson, E K -- Romanek, C S -- Stolper, E M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 14;275(5306):1633-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9054355" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: To test proposals for the origin of oxygen absorption bands in the visible reflectance spectrum of Ganymede, the reflectance of condensed films of pure oxygen (O2) and O2-water mixtures and the evolution of O2 from the films as a function of temperature were determined. Absorption band shapes and positions for oxygen at 26 kelvin were similar to those reported for Ganymede, whereas those for the mixtures were slightly shifted. The band intensity dropped by more than two orders of magnitude when the ice mixture was warmed to 100 kelvin, although about 20 percent of the O2 remained trapped in the ice, which suggested that at these temperatures O2 molecules dissolve in the ice rather than aggregate in clusters or bubbles. The experiments suggest that the absorption bands in Ganymede's spectrum were not produced in the relatively warm surface of the satellite but in a much colder source. Solid O2 may exist in a cold subsurface layer or in an atmospheric haze.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vidal, R A -- Bahr, D -- Baragiola, R A -- Peters, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 20;276(5320):1839-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory for Atomic and Surface Physics, University of Virginia, Thornton Hall, Charlottesville, VA 22901, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9188525" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Intron excision is an essential step in eukaryotic gene expression, but the molecular mechanisms by which the spliceosome accurately identifies splice sites in nuclear precursors to messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs) are not well understood. A bimolecular assay for the second step of splicing has now revealed that exon ligation by the human spliceosome does not require covalent attachment of a 3' splice site to the branch site. Furthermore, accurate definition of the 3' splice site in this system is independent of either a covalently attached polypyrimidine tract or specific 3' exon sequences. Rather, in this system 3' splice site selection apparently occurs with a 5' --〉 3' directionality.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Anderson, K -- Moore, M J -- GM53007/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 13;276(5319):1712-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉W.

    Description: BAD is a distant member of the Bcl-2 family that promotes cell death. Phosphorylation of BAD prevents this. BAD phosphorylation induced by interleukin-3 (IL-3) was inhibited by specific inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase). Akt, a survival-promoting serine-threonine protein kinase, was activated by IL-3 in a PI 3-kinase-dependent manner. Active, but not inactive, forms of Akt were found to phosphorylate BAD in vivo and in vitro at the same residues that are phosphorylated in response to IL-3. Thus, the proapoptotic function of BAD is regulated by the PI 3-kinase-Akt pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉del Peso, L -- Gonzalez-Garcia, M -- Page, C -- Herrera, R -- Nunez, G -- CA-64556/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 24;278(5338):687-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology and Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9381178" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A stellar-occultation light curve for Triton shows asymmetry that can be understood if Triton's middle atmosphere is distorted from spherical symmetry. Although a globally oblate model can explain the data, the inferred atmospheric flattening is so large that it could be caused only by an unrealistic internal mass distribution or highly supersonic zonal winds. Cyclostrophic winds confined to a jet near Triton's northern or southern limbs (or both) could also be responsible for the details of the light curve, but such winds are required to be slightly supersonic. Hazes and clouds in the atmosphere are unlikely to have caused the asymmetry in the light curve.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Elliot, J L -- Stansberry, J A -- Olkin, C B -- Agner, M A -- Davies, M E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 17;278(5337):436-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences and Department of Physics, Building 54-422, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 77 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307, USA. jle@mit.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9334297" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The atmospheric structure and the weather record are similar to those observed by the Viking 1 lander (VL-1) at the same latitude, altitude, and season 21 years ago, but there are differences related to diurnal effects and the surface properties of the landing site. These include a cold nighttime upper atmosphere; atmospheric temperatures that are 10 to 12 degrees kelvin warmer near the surface; light slope-controlled winds; and dust devils, identified by their pressure, wind, and temperature signatures. The results are consistent with the warm, moderately dusty atmosphere seen by VL-1.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schofield, J T -- Barnes, J R -- Crisp, D -- Haberle, R M -- Larsen, S -- Magalhaes, J A -- Murphy, J R -- Seiff, A -- Wilson, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Dec 5;278(5344):1752-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉J.

These CD4-chemokine receptor pseudotypes were able to target HIV- and SIV-infected cell lines and monocyte-derived macrophages in a manner that corresponded to the specificity of the viral envelope glycoprotein for its CD4-chemokine receptor complex. This approach could offer a way to deliver antiviral genes directly to HIV-infected cells in vivo and could provide an additional treatment strategy in conjunction with existing antiviral therapies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Endres, M J -- Jaffer, S -- Haggarty, B -- Turner, J D -- Doranz, B J -- O'Brien, P J -- Kolson, D L -- Hoxie, J A -- AI33854/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI40880/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- HL 07439/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 21;278(5342):1462-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Hematology-Oncology Division, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA. endres@mail.med.upenn.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9367958" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR), the enzyme responsible for the microbial formation of methane, is a 300-kilodalton protein organized as a hexamer in an alpha2beta2gamma2 arrangement. The crystal structure of the enzyme from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, determined at 1.45 angstrom resolution for the inactive enzyme state MCRox1-silent, reveals that two molecules of the nickel porphinoid coenzyme F430 are embedded between the subunits alpha, alpha', beta, and gamma and alpha', alpha, beta', and gamma', forming two identical active sites. Each site is accessible for the substrate methyl-coenzyme M through a narrow channel locked after binding of the second substrate coenzyme B. Together with a second structurally characterized enzyme state (MCRsilent) containing the heterodisulfide of coenzymes M and B, a reaction mechanism is proposed that uses a radical intermediate and a nickel organic compound.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ermler, U -- Grabarse, W -- Shima, S -- Goubeaud, M -- Thauer, R K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 21;278(5342):1457-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Max-Planck-Institut fur Biophysik, Heinrich-Hoffmann-Strabetae 7, 60528 Frankfurt, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9367957" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Interaction of the p55 tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNF-R1)-associated signal transducer TRADD with FADD signals apoptosis, whereas the TNF receptor-associated factor 2 protein (TRAF2) is required for activation of the nuclear transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B. TNF-induced activation of the stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) was shown to occur through a noncytotoxic TRAF2-dependent pathway. TRAF2 was both sufficient and necessary for activation of SAPK by TNF-R1; conversely, expression of a dominant-negative FADD mutant, which blocks apoptosis, did not interfere with SAPK activation. Therefore, SAPK activation occurs through a pathway that is not required for TNF-R1-induced apoptosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Natoli, G -- Costanzo, A -- Ianni, A -- Templeton, D J -- Woodgett, J R -- Balsano, C -- Levrero, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 10;275(5297):200-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Fondazione Andrea Cesalpino and Istituto di I Clinica Medica, Policlinico Umberto I, Viale del Policlinico 155, 00161 Rome, Italy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8985011" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: There is growing evidence that T helper cell subsets (TH1 and TH2) can be differentially recruited to promote different types of inflammatory reactions. Murine TH1 but not TH2 cells are recruited through P- and E-selectin into inflamed tissues, where they induce delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions. The human eotaxin-receptor CCR3, originally described on eosinophils and basophils, was also found to be expressed by TH2 cells. An antibody to CCR3 was used to isolate T cells from peripheral blood that give rise to TH2-polarized cell lines and to identify TH2 cells derived from naive T cells in vitro. Eotaxin stimulated increases in intracellular calcium and chemotaxis of CCR3(+) T cells. The attraction of TH2 cells by eotaxin could represent a key mechanism in allergic reactions, because it promotes the allergen-driven production of interleukin-4 and interleukin-5 necessary to activate basophils and eosinophils.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sallusto, F -- Mackay, C R -- Lanzavecchia, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 26;277(5334):2005-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Basel Institute for Immunology, Grenzacherstrasse 487, CH-4005 Basel, Switzerland. sallusto@bii.ch〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9302298" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human lymphocryptovirus that causes infectious mononucleosis, persists asymptomatically for life in nearly all adults, and is associated with the development of B cell lymphomas and nasopharyngeal carcinomas. A highly similar rhesus lymphocryptovirus naturally endemic in rhesus monkeys was used to orally infect naive animals from a pathogen-free colony. This animal model reproduced key aspects of human EBV infection, including oral transmission, atypical lymphocytosis, lymphadenopathy, activation of CD23(+) peripheral blood B cells, sustained serologic responses to lytic and latent EBV antigens, latent infection in the peripheral blood, and virus persistence in oropharyngeal secretions. This system may be useful for studying the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of EBV infection and associated oncogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moghaddam, A -- Rosenzweig, M -- Lee-Parritz, D -- Annis, B -- Johnson, R P -- Wang, F -- CA65319/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA68051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P51RR00168/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 27;276(5321):2030-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, 181 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9197263" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The signal transduction pathway or pathways linking extracellular signals to myogenesis are poorly defined. Upon mitogen withdrawal from C2C12 myoblasts, the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p42Erk2 is inactivated concomitant with up-regulation of muscle-specific genes. Overexpression of MAPK phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) inhibited p42Erk2 activity and was sufficient to relieve the inhibitory effects of mitogens on muscle-specific gene expression. Later during myogenesis, endogenous expression of MKP-1 decreased. MKP-1 overexpression during differentiation prevented myotube formation despite appropriate expression of myosin heavy chain. This indicates that muscle-specific gene expression is necessary but not sufficient to commit differentiated myocytes to myotubes and suggests a function for the MAPKs during the early and late stages of skeletal muscle differentiation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bennett, A M -- Tonks, N K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 14;278(5341):1288-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Demerec Building, 1 Bungtown Road, Post Office Box 100, Cold Spring Harbor, NY 11724, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9360925" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The proline-rich COOH-terminal region of dynamin binds various Src homology 3 (SH3) domain-containing proteins, but the physiological role of these interactions is unknown. In living nerve terminals, the function of the interaction with SH3 domains was examined. Amphiphysin contains an SH3 domain and is a major dynamin binding partner at the synapse. Microinjection of amphiphysin's SH3 domain or of a dynamin peptide containing the SH3 binding site inhibited synaptic vesicle endocytosis at the stage of invaginated clathrin-coated pits, which resulted in an activity-dependent distortion of the synaptic architecture and a depression of transmitter release. These findings demonstrate that SH3-mediated interactions are required for dynamin function and support an essential role of clathrin-mediated endocytosis in synaptic vesicle recycling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shupliakov, O -- Low, P -- Grabs, D -- Gad, H -- Chen, H -- David, C -- Takei, K -- De Camilli, P -- Brodin, L -- CA46128/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 11;276(5310):259-63.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Nobel Institute for Neurophysiology, Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, S-171 77 Stockholm, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9092476" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The carboxyl-terminal domain, residues 146 to 231, of the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) capsid protein [CA(146-231)] is required for capsid dimerization and viral assembly. This domain contains a stretch of 20 residues, called the major homology region (MHR), which is conserved across retroviruses and is essential for viral assembly, maturation, and infectivity. The crystal structures of CA(146-231) and CA(151-231) reveal that the globular domain is composed of four helices and an extended amino-terminal strand. CA(146-231) dimerizes through parallel packing of helix 2 across a dyad. The MHR is distinct from the dimer interface and instead forms an intricate hydrogen-bonding network that interconnects strand 1 and helices 1 and 2. Alignment of the CA(146-231) dimer with the crystal structure of the capsid amino-terminal domain provides a model for the intact protein and extends models for assembly of the central conical core of HIV-1.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gamble, T R -- Yoo, S -- Vajdos, F F -- von Schwedler, U K -- Worthylake, D K -- Wang, H -- McCutcheon, J P -- Sundquist, W I -- Hill, C P -- R01 AI40333/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI43036/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 31;278(5339):849-53.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9346481" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Comparison with five other sequenced microbes reveals ubiquitous as well as narrowly distributed gene families; many families of similar genes within E. coli are also evident. The largest family of paralogous proteins contains 80 ABC transporters. The genome as a whole is strikingly organized with respect to the local direction of replication; guanines, oligonucleotides possibly related to replication and recombination, and most genes are so oriented. The genome also contains insertion sequence (IS) elements, phage remnants, and many other patches of unusual composition indicating genome plasticity through horizontal transfer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blattner, F R -- Plunkett, G 3rd -- Bloch, C A -- Perna, N T -- Burland, V -- Riley, M -- Collado-Vides, J -- Glasner, J D -- Rode, C K -- Mayhew, G F -- Gregor, J -- Davis, N W -- Kirkpatrick, H A -- Goeden, M A -- Rose, D J -- Mau, B -- Shao, Y -- P01 HG01428/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- S10 RR10379/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Sep 5;277(5331):1453-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Genetics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 445 Henry Mall, Madison, WI 53706, USA. ecoli@genetics.wisc.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9278503" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Newly assembled major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules, together with the endoplasmic reticulum chaperone calreticulin, interact with the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) through a molecule called tapasin. The molecular cloning of tapasin revealed it to be a transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by an MHC-linked gene. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily with a probable cytoplasmic endoplasmic reticulum retention signal. Up to four MHC class I-tapasin complexes were found to bind to each TAP molecule. Expression of tapasin in a negative mutant human cell line (220) restored class I-TAP association and normal class I cell surface expression. Tapasin expression also corrected the defective recognition of virus-infected 220 cells by class I-restricted cytotoxic T cells, establishing a critical functional role for tapasin in MHC class I-restricted antigen processing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ortmann, B -- Copeman, J -- Lehner, P J -- Sadasivan, B -- Herberg, J A -- Grandea, A G -- Riddell, S R -- Tampe, R -- Spies, T -- Trowsdale, J -- Cresswell, P -- AI30581/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Aug 29;277(5330):1306-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Section of Immunobiology, Yale University School of Medicine, 310 Cedar Street, New Haven, CT 06510, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9271576" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: CD8(+) T lymphocytes from individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) secrete a soluble activity that suppresses infection by HIV-1. A protein associated with this activity was purified from the culture supernatant of an immortalized CD8(+) T cell clone and identified as the beta-chemokine macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC). MDC suppressed infection of CD8(+) cell-depleted peripheral blood mononuclear cells by primary non-syncytium-inducing and syncytium-inducing isolates of HIV-1 and the T cell line-adapted isolate HIV-1IIIB. MDC was expressed in activated, but not resting, peripheral blood mononuclear cells and binds a receptor on activated primary T cells. These observations indicate that beta-chemokines are responsible for a major proportion of HIV-1-specific suppressor activity produced by primary T cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pal, R -- Garzino-Demo, A -- Markham, P D -- Burns, J -- Brown, M -- Gallo, R C -- DeVico, A L -- N01-AI-55279/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 24;278(5338):695-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Advanced BioScience Laboratories, 5510 Nicholson Lane, Kensington, MD 20895, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9381181" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The blue-light photoreceptor photoactive yellow protein (PYP) undergoes a self-contained light cycle. The atomic structure of the bleached signaling intermediate in the light cycle of PYP was determined by millisecond time-resolved, multiwavelength Laue crystallography and simultaneous optical spectroscopy. Light-induced trans-to-cis isomerization of the 4-hydroxycinnamyl chromophore and coupled protein rearrangements produce a new set of active-site hydrogen bonds. An arginine gateway opens, allowing solvent exposure and protonation of the chromophore's phenolic oxygen. Resulting changes in shape, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic potential at the protein surface form a likely basis for signal transduction. The structural results suggest a general framework for the interpretation of protein photocycles.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Genick, U K -- Borgstahl, G E -- Ng, K -- Ren, Z -- Pradervand, C -- Burke, P M -- Srajer, V -- Teng, T Y -- Schildkamp, W -- McRee, D E -- Moffat, K -- Getzoff, E D -- GM36452/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM37684/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR07707/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Mar 7;275(5305):1471-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, 10550 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9045611" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Structural changes in the extracellular matrix are necessary for cell migration during tissue remodeling and tumor invasion. Specific cleavage of laminin-5 (Ln-5) by matrix metalloprotease-2 (MMP2) was shown to induce migration of breast epithelial cells. MMP2 cleaved the Ln-5 gamma2 subunit at residue 587, exposing a putative cryptic promigratory site on Ln-5 that triggers cell motility. This altered form of Ln-5 is found in tumors and in tissues undergoing remodeling, but not in quiescent tissues. Cleavage of Ln-5 by MMP2 and the resulting activation of the Ln-5 cryptic site may provide new targets for modulation of tumor cell invasion and tissue remodeling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Giannelli, G -- Falk-Marzillier, J -- Schiraldi, O -- Stetler-Stevenson, W G -- Quaranta, V -- CA47858/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DE10063/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 11;277(5323):225-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9211848" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR5 have recently been shown to act as coreceptors, in concert with CD4, for human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) infection. RANTES and other chemokines that interact with CCR5 and block infection of peripheral blood mononuclear cell cultures inhibit infection of primary macrophages inefficiently at best. If used to treat HIV-1-infected individuals, these chemokines could fail to influence HIV replication in nonlymphocyte compartments while promoting unwanted inflammatory side effects. A derivative of RANTES that was created by chemical modification of the amino terminus, aminooxypentane (AOP)-RANTES, did not induce chemotaxis and was a subnanomolar antagonist of CCR5 function in monocytes. It potently inhibited infection of diverse cell types (including macrophages and lymphocytes) by nonsyncytium-inducing, macrophage-tropic HIV-1 strains. Thus, activation of cells by chemokines is not a prerequisite for the inhibition of viral uptake and replication. Chemokine receptor antagonists like AOP-RANTES that achieve full receptor occupancy at nanomolar concentrations are strong candidates for the therapy of HIV-1-infected individuals.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Simmons, G -- Clapham, P R -- Picard, L -- Offord, R E -- Rosenkilde, M M -- Schwartz, T W -- Buser, R -- Wells, T N -- Proudfoot, A E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 11;276(5310):276-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Virology Group, Chester Beatty Laboratories, Institute of Cancer Research, 237 Fulham Road, London SW3 6JB, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9092481" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: TRAIL (also known as Apo-2L) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family that rapidly induces apoptosis in a variety of transformed cell lines. The human receptor for TRAIL was found to be an undescribed member of the TNF-receptor family (designated death receptor-4, DR4) that contains a cytoplasmic "death domain" capable of engaging the cell suicide apparatus but not the nuclear factor kappa B pathway in the system studied. Unlike Fas, TNFR-1, and DR3, DR4 could not use FADD to transmit the death signal, suggesting the use of distinct proximal signaling machinery. Thus, the DR4-TRAIL axis defines another receptor-ligand pair involved in regulating cell suicide and tissue homeostasis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pan, G -- O'Rourke, K -- Chinnaiyan, A M -- Gentz, R -- Ebner, R -- Ni, J -- Dixit, V M -- DAMD17-96-1-6085/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- ES08111/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 4;276(5309):111-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9082980" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) enhance transcription of specific genes in response to cytokines and growth factors. STAT1 is also required for efficient constitutive expression of the caspases Ice, Cpp32, and Ich-1 in human fibroblasts. As a consequence, STAT1-null cells are resistant to apoptosis by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha). Reintroduction of STAT1alpha restored both TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis and the expression of Ice, Cpp32, and Ich-1. Variant STAT1 proteins carrying point mutations that inactivate domains required for STAT dimer formation nevertheless restored protease expression and sensitivity to apoptosis, indicating that the functions of STAT1 required for these activities are different from those that mediate induced gene expression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kumar, A -- Commane, M -- Flickinger, T W -- Horvath, C M -- Stark, G R -- P01 CA62220/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 28;278(5343):1630-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Lerner Research Institute, The Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH 44195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9374464" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Formate dehydrogenase H from Escherichia coli contains selenocysteine (SeCys), molybdenum, two molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide (MGD) cofactors, and an Fe4S4 cluster at the active site and catalyzes the two-electron oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide. The crystal structures of the oxidized [Mo(VI), Fe4S4(ox)] form of formate dehydrogenase H (with and without bound inhibitor) and the reduced [Mo(IV), Fe4S4(red)] form have been determined, revealing a four-domain alphabeta structure with the molybdenum directly coordinated to selenium and both MGD cofactors. These structures suggest a reaction mechanism that directly involves SeCys140 and His141 in proton abstraction and the molybdenum, molybdopterin, Lys44, and the Fe4S4 cluster in electron transfer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boyington, J C -- Gladyshev, V N -- Khangulov, S V -- Stadtman, T C -- Sun, P D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Feb 28;275(5304):1305-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Structure, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health (NIH), Rockville, MD 20852, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9036855" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The crystal structure of the arabinose-binding and dimerization domain of the Escherchia coli gene regulatory protein AraC was determined in the presence and absence of L-arabinose. The 1.5 angstrom structure of the arabinose-bound molecule shows that the protein adopts an unusual fold, binding sugar within a beta barrel and completely burying the arabinose with the amino-terminal arm of the protein. Dimer contacts in the presence of arabinose are mediated by an antiparallel coiled-coil. In the 2.8 angstrom structure of the uncomplexed protein, the amino-terminal arm is disordered, uncovering the sugar-binding pocket and allowing it to serve as an oligomerization interface. The ligand-gated oligomerization as seen in AraC provides the basis of a plausible mechanism for modulating the protein's DNA-looping properties.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Soisson, S M -- MacDougall-Shackleton, B -- Schleif, R -- Wolberger, C -- GM18277/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 18;276(5311):421-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9103202" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: To study nucleosome mobility and positioning, the R3 lac repressor was used with an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent chromatin assembly system to establish the positioning of five nucleosomes, with one nucleosome located between two R3 lac operators. When R3 protein was dissociated from DNA with isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside, the R3-induced nucleosome positions remained unchanged for at least 60 minutes in the absence of ATP but rearranged within 15 minutes in the presence of ATP. These results suggest that nucleosomes are dynamic and mobile rather than static and that a DNA binding factor is continuously required for the maintenance of nucleosome positioning.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pazin, M J -- Bhargava, P -- Geiduschek, E P -- Kadonaga, J T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 2;276(5313):809-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology and Center for Molecular Genetics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9115208" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The pathogenic yeast Candida albicans regulates its cellular morphology in response to environmental conditions. Ellipsoidal, single cells (blastospores) predominate in rich media, whereas filaments composed of elongated cells that are attached end-to-end form in response to starvation, serum, and other conditions. The TUP1 gene, which encodes a general transcriptional repressor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was isolated from C. albicans and disrupted. The resulting tup1 mutant strain of C. albicans grew exclusively as filaments under all conditions tested. TUP1 was epistatic to the transcriptional activator CPH1, previously found to promote filamentous growth. The results suggest a model where TUP1 represses genes responsible for initiating filamentous growth and this repression is lifted under inducing environmental conditions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Braun, B R -- Johnson, A D -- GM37049/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jul 4;277(5322):105-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of California, San Francisco, 513 Parnassus Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94143-0414, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9204892" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Transmission electron microscope observations of the Allende carbonaceous chondrite provided evidence of widespread hydrous phases replacing enstatite in chondrules. Calcic amphibole and talc occur in thin (less than 0.3 micrometer) crosscutting veins and as alteration products of primary chondrule glass in contraction cracks within the enstatite. In addition, talc and disordered biopyriboles were found replacing enstatite grains along cracks and fractures. Although rare hydrous phases have been reported in calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions in the Allende meteorite, these observations suggest that aqueous fluids played a much more significant role in the mineralogical and geochemical evolution of Allende than has previously been thought.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brearley, A J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 16;276(5315):1103-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Meteoritics, Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9148802" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Lambda integrase is archetypic of site-specific recombinases that catalyze intermolecular DNA rearrangements without energetic input. DNA cleavage, strand exchange, and religation steps are linked by a covalent phosphotyrosine intermediate in which Tyr342 is attached to the 3'-phosphate of the DNA cut site. The 1.9 angstrom crystal structure of the integrase catalytic domain reveals a protein fold that is conserved in organisms ranging from archaebacteria to yeast and that suggests a model for interaction with target DNA. The attacking Tyr342 nucleophile is located on a flexible loop about 20 angstroms from a basic groove that contains all the other catalytically essential residues. This bipartite active site can account for several apparently paradoxical features of integrase family recombinases, including the capacity for both cis and trans cleavage of DNA.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1839824/" 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/PMC1839824/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kwon, H J -- Tirumalai, R -- Landy, A -- Ellenberger, T -- AI13544/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM33928/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM033928/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM062723/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Apr 4;276(5309):126-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9082984" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Janus family of tyrosine kinases (JAK) plays an essential role in development and in coupling cytokine receptors to downstream intracellular signaling events. A t(9;12)(p24;p13) chromosomal translocation in a T cell childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia patient was characterized and shown to fuse the 3' portion of JAK2 to the 5' region of TEL, a gene encoding a member of the ETS transcription factor family. The TEL-JAK2 fusion protein includes the catalytic domain of JAK2 and the TEL-specific oligomerization domain. TEL-induced oligomerization of TEL-JAK2 resulted in the constitutive activation of its tyrosine kinase activity and conferred cytokine-independent proliferation to the interleukin-3-dependent Ba/F3 hematopoietic cell line.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lacronique, V -- Boureux, A -- Valle, V D -- Poirel, H -- Quang, C T -- Mauchauffe, M -- Berthou, C -- Lessard, M -- Berger, R -- Ghysdael, J -- Bernard, O A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 14;278(5341):1309-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉U 301 de l'Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale and SD 401 No. 301 CNRS, Institut de Genetique Moleculaire, 27 rue Juliette Dodu, 75010 Paris, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9360930" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The oriented peptide library technique was used to investigate the peptide-binding specificities of nine PDZ domains. Each PDZ domain selected peptides with hydrophobic residues at the carboxyl terminus. Individual PDZ domains selected unique optimal motifs defined primarily by the carboxyl terminal three to seven residues of the peptides. One family of PDZ domains, including those of the Discs Large protein, selected peptides with the consensus motif Glu-(Ser/Thr)-Xxx-(Val/Ile) (where Xxx represents any amino acid) at the carboxyl terminus. In contrast, another family of PDZ domains, including those of LIN-2, p55, and Tiam-1, selected peptides with hydrophobic or aromatic side chains at the carboxyl terminal three residues. On the basis of crystal structures of the PSD-95-3 PDZ domain, the specificities observed with the peptide library can be rationalized.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Songyang, Z -- Fanning, A S -- Fu, C -- Xu, J -- Marfatia, S M -- Chishti, A H -- Crompton, A -- Chan, A C -- Anderson, J M -- Cantley, L C -- CA66263/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK34989/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM056203/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jan 3;275(5296):73-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Signal Transduction, Beth Israel Hospital, and Department of Cell Biology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8974395" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
