    The transcriptional repressor DEC2 regulates sleep length in mammals (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-15
    Beschreibung: Sleep deprivation can impair human health and performance. Habitual total sleep time and homeostatic sleep response to sleep deprivation are quantitative traits in humans. Genetic loci for these traits have been identified in model organisms, but none of these potential animal models have a corresponding human genotype and phenotype. We have identified a mutation in a transcriptional repressor (hDEC2-P385R) that is associated with a human short sleep phenotype. Activity profiles and sleep recordings of transgenic mice carrying this mutation showed increased vigilance time and less sleep time than control mice in a zeitgeber time- and sleep deprivation-dependent manner. These mice represent a model of human sleep homeostasis that provides an opportunity to probe the effect of sleep on human physical and mental health.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2884988/" 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/PMC2884988/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉He, Ying -- Jones, Christopher R -- Fujiki, Nobuhiro -- Xu, Ying -- Guo, Bin -- Holder, Jimmy L Jr -- Rossner, Moritz J -- Nishino, Seiji -- Fu, Ying-Hui -- HL059596/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- MH074924/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL059596/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL059596-09/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 14;325(5942):866-70. doi: 10.1126/science.1174443.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, University of California at San Francisco, Mission Bay, 1550 Fourth Street, San Francisco, CA 94158, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19679812" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Haploid genetic screens in human cells identify host factors used by pathogens (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Loss-of-function genetic screens in model organisms have elucidated numerous biological processes, but the diploid genome of mammalian cells has precluded large-scale gene disruption. We used insertional mutagenesis to develop a screening method to generate null alleles in a human cell line haploid for all chromosomes except chromosome 8. Using this approach, we identified host factors essential for infection with influenza and genes encoding important elements of the biosynthetic pathway of diphthamide, which are required for the cytotoxic effects of diphtheria toxin and exotoxin A. We also identified genes needed for the action of cytolethal distending toxin, including a cell-surface protein that interacts with the toxin. This approach has both conceptual and practical parallels with genetic approaches in haploid yeast.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Carette, Jan E -- Guimaraes, Carla P -- Varadarajan, Malini -- Park, Annie S -- Wuethrich, Irene -- Godarova, Alzbeta -- Kotecki, Maciej -- Cochran, Brent H -- Spooner, Eric -- Ploegh, Hidde L -- Brummelkamp, Thijn R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 27;326(5957):1231-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1178955.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, 9 Cambridge Center, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965467" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A crystal structure of the bifunctional antibiotic simocyclinone D8, bound to DNA gyrase (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Simocyclinones are bifunctional antibiotics that inhibit bacterial DNA gyrase by preventing DNA binding to the enzyme. We report the crystal structure of the complex formed between the N-terminal domain of the Escherichia coli gyrase A subunit and simocyclinone D8, revealing two binding pockets that separately accommodate the aminocoumarin and polyketide moieties of the antibiotic. These are close to, but distinct from, the quinolone-binding site, consistent with our observations that several mutations in this region confer resistance to both agents. Biochemical studies show that the individual moieties of simocyclinone D8 are comparatively weak inhibitors of gyrase relative to the parent compound, but their combination generates a more potent inhibitor. Our results should facilitate the design of drug molecules that target these unexploited binding pockets.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Edwards, Marcus J -- Flatman, Ruth H -- Mitchenall, Lesley A -- Stevenson, Clare E M -- Le, Tung B K -- Clarke, Thomas A -- McKay, Adam R -- Fiedler, Hans-Peter -- Buttner, Mark J -- Lawson, David M -- Maxwell, Anthony -- Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 4;326(5958):1415-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1179123.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry, John Innes Centre, Colney, Norwich NR4 7UH, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965760" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure and mechanism of a Na+-independent amino acid transporter (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-18
    Beschreibung: Amino acid, polyamine, and organocation (APC) transporters are secondary transporters that play essential roles in nutrient uptake, neurotransmitter recycling, ionic homeostasis, and regulation of cell volume. Here, we present the crystal structure of apo-ApcT, a proton-coupled broad-specificity amino acid transporter, at 2.35 angstrom resolution. The structure contains 12 transmembrane helices, with the first 10 consisting of an inverted structural repeat of 5 transmembrane helices like the leucine transporter LeuT. The ApcT structure reveals an inward-facing, apo state and an amine moiety of lysine-158 located in a position equivalent to the sodium ion site Na2 of LeuT. We propose that lysine-158 is central to proton-coupled transport and that the amine group serves the same functional role as the Na2 ion in LeuT, thus demonstrating common principles among proton- and sodium-coupled transporters.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2851542/" 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/PMC2851542/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shaffer, Paul L -- Goehring, April -- Shankaranarayanan, Aruna -- Gouaux, Eric -- R01 MH070039/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH070039-05/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM008281/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM008281-17/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U54 GM075026/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U54 GM075026-040002/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 21;325(5943):1010-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1176088.

    Structure of rotavirus outer-layer protein VP7 bound with a neutralizing Fab (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-06-13
    Beschreibung: Rotavirus outer-layer protein VP7 is a principal target of protective antibodies. Removal of free calcium ions (Ca2+) dissociates VP7 trimers into monomers, releasing VP7 from the virion, and initiates penetration-inducing conformational changes in the other outer-layer protein, VP4. We report the crystal structure at 3.4 angstrom resolution of VP7 bound with the Fab fragment of a neutralizing monoclonal antibody. The Fab binds across the outer surface of the intersubunit contact, which contains two Ca2+ sites. Mutations that escape neutralization by other antibodies suggest that the same region bears the epitopes of most neutralizing antibodies. The monovalent Fab is sufficient to neutralize infectivity. We propose that neutralizing antibodies against VP7 act by stabilizing the trimer, thereby inhibiting the uncoating trigger for VP4 rearrangement. A disulfide-linked trimer is a potential subunit immunogen.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2995306/" 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/PMC2995306/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aoki, Scott T -- Settembre, Ethan C -- Trask, Shane D -- Greenberg, Harry B -- Harrison, Stephen C -- Dormitzer, Philip R -- AI-21362/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA-13202/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK-56339/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 CA013202/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R37 CA013202-38/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 12;324(5933):1444-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1170481.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Medicine, Children's Hospital, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19520960" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of P-glycoprotein reveals a molecular basis for poly-specific drug binding (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-28
    Beschreibung: P-glycoprotein (P-gp) detoxifies cells by exporting hundreds of chemically unrelated toxins but has been implicated in multidrug resistance (MDR) in the treatment of cancers. Substrate promiscuity is a hallmark of P-gp activity, thus a structural description of poly-specific drug-binding is important for the rational design of anticancer drugs and MDR inhibitors. The x-ray structure of apo P-gp at 3.8 angstroms reveals an internal cavity of approximately 6000 angstroms cubed with a 30 angstrom separation of the two nucleotide-binding domains. Two additional P-gp structures with cyclic peptide inhibitors demonstrate distinct drug-binding sites in the internal cavity capable of stereoselectivity that is based on hydrophobic and aromatic interactions. Apo and drug-bound P-gp structures have portals open to the cytoplasm and the inner leaflet of the lipid bilayer for drug entry. The inward-facing conformation represents an initial stage of the transport cycle that is competent for drug binding.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2720052/" 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/PMC2720052/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aller, Stephen G -- Yu, Jodie -- Ward, Andrew -- Weng, Yue -- Chittaboina, Srinivas -- Zhuo, Rupeng -- Harrell, Patina M -- Trinh, Yenphuong T -- Zhang, Qinghai -- Urbatsch, Ina L -- Chang, Geoffrey -- F32 GM078914/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- F32 GM078914-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM073197/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM078914/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM61905/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P50 GM073197/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P50 GM073197-050002/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM061905/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM061905-09/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 27;323(5922):1718-22. doi: 10.1126/science.1168750.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Scripps Research Institute, 10550 North Torrey Pines Road, CB105, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19325113" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    RNA polymerase IV functions in paramutation in Zea mays (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-03
    Beschreibung: Plants have distinct RNA polymerase complexes (Pol IV and Pol V) with largely unknown roles in maintaining small RNA-associated gene silencing. Curiously, the eudicot Arabidopsis thaliana is not affected when either function is lost. By use of mutation selection and positional cloning, we showed that the largest subunit of the presumed maize Pol IV is involved in paramutation, an inherited epigenetic change facilitated by an interaction between two alleles, as well as normal maize development. Bioinformatics analyses and nuclear run-on transcription assays indicate that Pol IV does not engage in the efficient RNA synthesis typical of the three major eukaryotic DNA-dependent RNA polymerases. These results indicate that Pol IV employs abnormal RNA polymerase activities to achieve genome-wide silencing and that its absence affects both maize development and heritable epigenetic changes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Erhard, Karl F Jr -- Stonaker, Jennifer L -- Parkinson, Susan E -- Lim, Jana P -- Hale, Christopher J -- Hollick, Jay B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 27;323(5918):1201-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1164508.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant and Microbial Biology, 111 Koshland Hall, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3102, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19251626" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    DNA binding site sequence directs glucocorticoid receptor structure and activity (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-04-18
    Beschreibung: Genes are not simply turned on or off, but instead their expression is fine-tuned to meet the needs of a cell. How genes are modulated so precisely is not well understood. The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) regulates target genes by associating with specific DNA binding sites, the sequences of which differ between genes. Traditionally, these binding sites have been viewed only as docking sites. Using structural, biochemical, and cell-based assays, we show that GR binding sequences, differing by as little as a single base pair, differentially affect GR conformation and regulatory activity. We therefore propose that DNA is a sequence-specific allosteric ligand of GR that tailors the activity of the receptor toward specific target genes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2777810/" 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/PMC2777810/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meijsing, Sebastiaan H -- Pufall, Miles A -- So, Alex Y -- Bates, Darren L -- Chen, Lin -- Yamamoto, Keith R -- GM08537/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA020535/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA020535-31/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Apr 17;324(5925):407-10. doi: 10.1126/science.1164265.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94158, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19372434" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stress-inducible regulation of heat shock factor 1 by the deacetylase SIRT1 (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-21
    Beschreibung: Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is essential for protecting cells from protein-damaging stress associated with misfolded proteins and regulates the insulin-signaling pathway and aging. Here, we show that human HSF1 is inducibly acetylated at a critical residue that negatively regulates DNA binding activity. Activation of the deacetylase and longevity factor SIRT1 prolonged HSF1 binding to the heat shock promoter Hsp70 by maintaining HSF1 in a deacetylated, DNA-binding competent state. Conversely, down-regulation of SIRT1 accelerated the attenuation of the heat shock response (HSR) and release of HSF1 from its cognate promoter elements. These results provide a mechanistic basis for the requirement of HSF1 in the regulation of life span and establish a role for SIRT1 in protein homeostasis and the HSR.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3429349/" 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/PMC3429349/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Westerheide, Sandy D -- Anckar, Julius -- Stevens, Stanley M Jr -- Sistonen, Lea -- Morimoto, Richard I -- R01 AG026647/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG026647-01/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG026647-02/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG026647-03/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG026647-04/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM038109/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038109/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038109-19/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038109-20/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038109-21/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 GM038109-22/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 20;323(5917):1063-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1165946.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Cell Biology, Rice Institute for Biomedical Research, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, 60208, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19229036" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Diversity and complexity in DNA recognition by transcription factors (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-16
    Beschreibung: Sequence preferences of DNA binding proteins are a primary mechanism by which cells interpret the genome. Despite the central importance of these proteins in physiology, development, and evolution, comprehensive DNA binding specificities have been determined experimentally for only a few proteins. Here, we used microarrays containing all 10-base pair sequences to examine the binding specificities of 104 distinct mouse DNA binding proteins representing 22 structural classes. Our results reveal a complex landscape of binding, with virtually every protein analyzed possessing unique preferences. Roughly half of the proteins each recognized multiple distinctly different sequence motifs, challenging our molecular understanding of how proteins interact with their DNA binding sites. This complexity in DNA recognition may be important in gene regulation and in the evolution of transcriptional regulatory networks.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2905877/" 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/PMC2905877/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Badis, Gwenael -- Berger, Michael F -- Philippakis, Anthony A -- Talukder, Shaheynoor -- Gehrke, Andrew R -- Jaeger, Savina A -- Chan, Esther T -- Metzler, Genita -- Vedenko, Anastasia -- Chen, Xiaoyu -- Kuznetsov, Hanna -- Wang, Chi-Fong -- Coburn, David -- Newburger, Daniel E -- Morris, Quaid -- Hughes, Timothy R -- Bulyk, Martha L -- R01 HG003985/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003985-01/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003985-02/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003985-03/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 26;324(5935):1720-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1162327.

    A kinase-START gene confers temperature-dependent resistance to wheat stripe rust (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-21
    Beschreibung: Stripe rust is a devastating fungal disease that afflicts wheat in many regions of the world. New races of Puccinia striiformis, the pathogen responsible for this disease, have overcome most of the known race-specific resistance genes. We report the map-based cloning of the gene Yr36 (WKS1), which confers resistance to a broad spectrum of stripe rust races at relatively high temperatures (25 degrees to 35 degrees C). This gene includes a kinase and a putative START lipid-binding domain. Five independent mutations and transgenic complementation confirmed that both domains are necessary to confer resistance. Yr36 is present in wild wheat but is absent in modern pasta and bread wheat varieties, and therefore it can now be used to improve resistance to stripe rust in a broad set of varieties.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4737487/" 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/PMC4737487/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fu, Daolin -- Uauy, Cristobal -- Distelfeld, Assaf -- Blechl, Ann -- Epstein, Lynn -- Chen, Xianming -- Sela, Hanan -- Fahima, Tzion -- Dubcovsky, Jorge -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 6;323(5919):1357-60. doi: 10.1126/science.1166289.

    Regulation of neuronal survival factor MEF2D by chaperone-mediated autophagy (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-03
    Beschreibung: Chaperone-mediated autophagy controls the degradation of selective cytosolic proteins and may protect neurons against degeneration. In a neuronal cell line, we found that chaperone-mediated autophagy regulated the activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2D (MEF2D), a transcription factor required for neuronal survival. MEF2D was observed to continuously shuttle to the cytoplasm, interact with the chaperone Hsc70, and undergo degradation. Inhibition of chaperone-mediated autophagy caused accumulation of inactive MEF2D in the cytoplasm. MEF2D levels were increased in the brains of alpha-synuclein transgenic mice and patients with Parkinson's disease. Wild-type alpha-synuclein and a Parkinson's disease-associated mutant disrupted the MEF2D-Hsc70 binding and led to neuronal death. Thus, chaperone-mediated autophagy modulates the neuronal survival machinery, and dysregulation of this pathway is associated with Parkinson's disease.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2666000/" 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/PMC2666000/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, Qian -- She, Hua -- Gearing, Marla -- Colla, Emanuela -- Lee, Michael -- Shacka, John J -- Mao, Zixu -- AG023695/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- NS038065/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS048254/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS055077/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS47466/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS57098/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P30 NS055077/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P30 NS055077-01A2/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P50 AG025688/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- P50 AG025688-03/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG023695/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG023695-02/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG023695-03/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG023695-04/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG023695-05/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254-02/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254-04/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254-05/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS048254-06/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 2;323(5910):124-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1166088.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19119233" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Global analysis of Cdk1 substrate phosphorylation sites provides insights into evolution (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-26
    Beschreibung: To explore the mechanisms and evolution of cell-cycle control, we analyzed the position and conservation of large numbers of phosphorylation sites for the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdk1 in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We combined specific chemical inhibition of Cdk1 with quantitative mass spectrometry to identify the positions of 547 phosphorylation sites on 308 Cdk1 substrates in vivo. Comparisons of these substrates with orthologs throughout the ascomycete lineage revealed that the position of most phosphorylation sites is not conserved in evolution; instead, clusters of sites shift position in rapidly evolving disordered regions. We propose that the regulation of protein function by phosphorylation often depends on simple nonspecific mechanisms that disrupt or enhance protein-protein interactions. The gain or loss of phosphorylation sites in rapidly evolving regions could facilitate the evolution of kinase-signaling circuits.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2813701/" 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/PMC2813701/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Holt, Liam J -- Tuch, Brian B -- Villen, Judit -- Johnson, Alexander D -- Gygi, Steven P -- Morgan, David O -- GM037049/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM50684/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HG3456/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM069901/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM069901-06/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003456/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003456-06/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 25;325(5948):1682-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1172867.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Departments of Physiology and Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94158, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19779198" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutations in two independent pathways are sufficient to create hermaphroditic nematodes (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Although the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans produces self-fertile hermaphrodites, it descended from a male/female species, so hermaphroditism provides a model for the origin of novel traits. In the related species C. remanei, which has only male and female sexes, lowering the activity of tra-2 by RNA interference created XX animals that made spermatids as well as oocytes, but their spermatids could not activate without the addition of male seminal fluid. However, by lowering the expression of both tra-2 and swm-1, a gene that regulates sperm activation in C. elegans, we produced XX animals with active sperm that were self-fertile. Thus, the evolution of hermaphroditism in Caenorhabditis probably required two steps: a mutation in the sex-determination pathway that caused XX spermatogenesis and a mutation that allowed these spermatids to self-activate.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Baldi, Chris -- Cho, Soochin -- Ellis, Ronald E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 13;326(5955):1002-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1176013.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, Stratford, NJ 08084, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965511" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Smoothened mutation confers resistance to a Hedgehog pathway inhibitor in medulloblastoma (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-04
    Beschreibung: The Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway is inappropriately activated in certain human cancers, including medulloblastoma, an aggressive brain tumor. GDC-0449, a drug that inhibits Hh signaling by targeting the serpentine receptor Smoothened (SMO), has produced promising anti-tumor responses in early clinical studies of cancers driven by mutations in this pathway. To evaluate the mechanism of resistance in a medulloblastoma patient who had relapsed after an initial response to GDC-0449, we determined the mutational status of Hh signaling genes in the tumor after disease progression. We identified an amino acid substitution at a conserved aspartic acid residue of SMO that had no effect on Hh signaling but disrupted the ability of GDC-0449 to bind SMO and suppress this pathway. A mutation altering the same amino acid also arose in a GDC-0449-resistant mouse model of medulloblastoma. These findings show that acquired mutations in a serpentine receptor with features of a G protein-coupled receptor can serve as a mechanism of drug resistance in human cancer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yauch, Robert L -- Dijkgraaf, Gerrit J P -- Alicke, Bruno -- Januario, Thomas -- Ahn, Christina P -- Holcomb, Thomas -- Pujara, Kanan -- Stinson, Jeremy -- Callahan, Christopher A -- Tang, Tracy -- Bazan, J Fernando -- Kan, Zhengyan -- Seshagiri, Somasekar -- Hann, Christine L -- Gould, Stephen E -- Low, Jennifer A -- Rudin, Charles M -- de Sauvage, Frederic J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 23;326(5952):572-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1179386.

    Structure and mechanism of an amino acid antiporter (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-30
    Beschreibung: Virulent enteric pathogens such as Escherichia coli strain O157:H7 rely on acid-resistance (AR) systems to survive the acidic environment in the stomach. A major component of AR is an arginine-dependent arginine:agmatine antiporter that expels intracellular protons. Here, we report the crystal structure of AdiC, the arginine:agmatine antiporter from E. coli O157:H7 and a member of the amino acid/polyamine/organocation (APC) superfamily of transporters at 3.6 A resolution. The overall fold is similar to that of several Na+-coupled symporters. AdiC contains 12 transmembrane segments, forms a homodimer, and exists in an outward-facing, open conformation in the crystals. A conserved, acidic pocket opens to the periplasm. Structural and biochemical analysis reveals the essential ligand-binding residues, defines the transport route, and suggests a conserved mechanism for the antiporter activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gao, Xiang -- Lu, Feiran -- Zhou, Lijun -- Dang, Shangyu -- Sun, Linfeng -- Li, Xiaochun -- Wang, Jiawei -- Shi, Yigong -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 19;324(5934):1565-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1173654.

    A type I-secreted, sulfated peptide triggers XA21-mediated innate immunity (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-07
    Beschreibung: The rice Xa21 gene confers immunity to most strains of the bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis of biologically active fractions from Xoo supernatants led to the identification of a 194-amino acid protein designated Ax21 (activator of XA21-mediated immunity). A sulfated, 17-amino acid synthetic peptide (axY(S)22) derived from the N-terminal region of Ax21 is sufficient for activity, whereas peptides lacking tyrosine sulfation are biologically inactive. Using coimmunoprecipitation, we found that XA21 is required for axY(S)22 binding and recognition. axY(S)22 is 100% conserved in all analyzed Xanthomonas species, confirming that Ax21 is a pathogen-associated molecular pattern and that XA21 is a pattern recognition receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, Sang-Won -- Han, Sang-Wook -- Sririyanum, Malinee -- Park, Chang-Jin -- Seo, Young-Su -- Ronald, Pamela C -- GM55962/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 6;326(5954):850-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1173438.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant Pathology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19892983" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The hallucinogen N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is an endogenous sigma-1 receptor regulator (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-14
    Beschreibung: The sigma-1 receptor is widely distributed in the central nervous system and periphery. Originally mischaracterized as an opioid receptor, the sigma-1 receptor binds a vast number of synthetic compounds but does not bind opioid peptides; it is currently considered an orphan receptor. The sigma-1 receptor pharmacophore includes an alkylamine core, also found in the endogenous compound N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT). DMT acts as a hallucinogen, but its receptor target has been unclear. DMT bound to sigma-1 receptors and inhibited voltage-gated sodium ion (Na+) channels in both native cardiac myocytes and heterologous cells that express sigma-1 receptors. DMT induced hypermobility in wild-type mice but not in sigma-1 receptor knockout mice. These biochemical, physiological, and behavioral experiments indicate that DMT is an endogenous agonist for the sigma-1 receptor.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2947205/" 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/PMC2947205/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fontanilla, Dominique -- Johannessen, Molly -- Hajipour, Abdol R -- Cozzi, Nicholas V -- Jackson, Meyer B -- Ruoho, Arnold E -- F31 DA022932/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- NS30016/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH065503/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH065503-01A1/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS030016/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS030016-08/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS030016-09/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM08688/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 13;323(5916):934-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1166127.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI 53706, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19213917" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of the LKB1-STRAD-MO25 complex reveals an allosteric mechanism of kinase activation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-07
    Beschreibung: The LKB1 tumor suppressor is a protein kinase that controls the activity of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). LKB1 activity is regulated by the pseudokinase STRADalpha and the scaffolding protein MO25alpha through an unknown, phosphorylation-independent, mechanism. We describe the structure of the core heterotrimeric LKB1-STRADalpha-MO25alpha complex, revealing an unusual allosteric mechanism of LKB1 activation. STRADalpha adopts a closed conformation typical of active protein kinases and binds LKB1 as a pseudosubstrate. STRADalpha and MO25alpha promote the active conformation of LKB1, which is stabilized by MO25alpha interacting with the LKB1 activation loop. This previously undescribed mechanism of kinase activation may be relevant to understanding the evolution of other pseudokinases. The structure also reveals how mutations found in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and in various sporadic cancers impair LKB1 function.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3518268/" 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/PMC3518268/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zeqiraj, Elton -- Filippi, Beatrice Maria -- Deak, Maria -- Alessi, Dario R -- van Aalten, Daan M F -- 087590/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- C33794/A10969/Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- G0900138/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_U127070193/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 18;326(5960):1707-11. doi: 10.1126/science.1178377.

    The aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator alters CD30-mediated NF-kappaB-dependent transcription (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-10
    Beschreibung: Expression and signaling of CD30, a tumor necrosis factor receptor family member, is up-regulated in numerous lymphoid-derived neoplasias, most notably anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) and Hodgkin's lymphoma. To gain insight into the mechanism of CD30 signaling, we used an affinity purification strategy that led to the identification of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) as a CD30-interacting protein that modulated the activity of the RelB subunit of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB). ALCL cells that were deficient in ARNT exhibited defects in RelB recruitment to NF-kappaB-responsive promoters, whereas RelA recruitment to the same sites was potentiated, resulting in the augmented expression of these NF-kappaB-responsive genes. These findings indicate that ARNT functions in concert with RelB in a CD30-induced negative feedback mechanism.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2682336/" 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/PMC2682336/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wright, Casey W -- Duckett, Colin S -- R01 GM067827/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM067827-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 9;323(5911):251-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1162818.〈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/19131627" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Extinction-reconsolidation boundaries: key to persistent attenuation of fear memories (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-04-04
    Beschreibung: Dysregulation of the fear system is at the core of many psychiatric disorders. Much progress has been made in uncovering the neural basis of fear learning through studies in which associative emotional memories are formed by pairing an initially neutral stimulus (conditioned stimulus, CS; e.g., a tone) to an unconditioned stimulus (US; e.g., a shock). Despite recent advances, the question of how to persistently weaken aversive CS-US associations, or dampen traumatic memories in pathological cases, remains a major dilemma. Two paradigms (blockade of reconsolidation and extinction) have been used in the laboratory to reduce acquired fear. Unfortunately, their clinical efficacy is limited: Reconsolidation blockade typically requires potentially toxic drugs, and extinction is not permanent. Here, we describe a behavioral design in which a fear memory in rats is destabilized and reinterpreted as safe by presenting an isolated retrieval trial before an extinction session. This procedure permanently attenuates the fear memory without the use of drugs.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3625935/" 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/PMC3625935/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Monfils, Marie-H -- Cowansage, Kiriana K -- Klann, Eric -- LeDoux, Joseph E -- F31 MH083472/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- F31 MH083472-01A1/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- F31MH083472/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- K05 MH067048/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- NS034007/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS047384/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH058911/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH046516/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R37 MH038774/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 15;324(5929):951-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1167975.

    Polydnaviruses of braconid wasps derive from an ancestral nudivirus (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-14
    Beschreibung: Many species of parasitoid wasps inject polydnavirus particles in order to manipulate host defenses and development. Because the DNA packaged in these particles encodes almost no viral structural proteins, their relation to viruses has been debated. Characterization of complementary DNAs derived from braconid wasp ovaries identified genes encoding subunits of a viral RNA polymerase and structural components of polydnavirus particles related most closely to those of nudiviruses--a sister group of baculoviruses. The conservation of this viral machinery in different braconid wasp lineages sharing polydnaviruses suggests that parasitoid wasps incorporated a nudivirus-related genome into their own genetic material. We found that the nudiviral genes themselves are no longer packaged but are actively transcribed and produce particles used to deliver genes essential for successful parasitism in lepidopteran hosts.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bezier, Annie -- Annaheim, Marc -- Herbiniere, Juline -- Wetterwald, Christoph -- Gyapay, Gabor -- Bernard-Samain, Sylvie -- Wincker, Patrick -- Roditi, Isabel -- Heller, Manfred -- Belghazi, Maya -- Pfister-Wilhem, Rita -- Periquet, Georges -- Dupuy, Catherine -- Huguet, Elisabeth -- Volkoff, Anne-Nathalie -- Lanzrein, Beatrice -- Drezen, Jean-Michel -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 13;323(5916):926-30. doi: 10.1126/science.1166788.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut de Recherche sur la Biologie de l'Insecte, CNRS UMR 6035, Universite Francois Rabelais, Parc de Grandmont, 37200 Tours, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19213916" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The insect neuropeptide PTTH activates receptor tyrosine kinase torso to initiate metamorphosis (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Holometabolous insects undergo complete metamorphosis to become sexually mature adults. Metamorphosis is initiated by brain-derived prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH), which stimulates the production of the molting hormone ecdysone via an incompletely defined signaling pathway. Here we demonstrate that Torso, a receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates embryonic terminal cell fate in Drosophila, is the PTTH receptor. Trunk, the embryonic Torso ligand, is related to PTTH, and ectopic expression of PTTH in the embryo partially rescues trunk mutants. In larvae, torso is expressed specifically in the prothoracic gland (PG), and its loss phenocopies the removal of PTTH. The activation of Torso by PTTH stimulates extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation, and the loss of ERK in the PG phenocopies the loss of PTTH and Torso. We conclude that PTTH initiates metamorphosis by activation of the Torso/ERK pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rewitz, Kim F -- Yamanaka, Naoki -- Gilbert, Lawrence I -- O'Connor, Michael B -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 4;326(5958):1403-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1176450.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics, Cell Biology, and Development, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965758" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Draxin, a repulsive guidance protein for spinal cord and forebrain commissures (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-20
    Beschreibung: Axon guidance proteins are critical for the correct wiring of the nervous system during development. Several axon guidance cues and their family members have been well characterized. More unidentified axon guidance cues are assumed to participate in the formation of the extremely complex nervous system. We identified a secreted protein, draxin, that shares no homology with known guidance cues. Draxin inhibited or repelled neurite outgrowth from dorsal spinal cord and cortical explants in vitro. Ectopically expressed draxin inhibited growth or caused misrouting of chick spinal cord commissural axons in vivo. draxin knockout mice showed defasciculation of spinal cord commissural axons and absence of all forebrain commissures. Thus, draxin is a previously unknown chemorepulsive axon guidance molecule required for the development of spinal cord and forebrain commissures.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Islam, Shahidul M -- Shinmyo, Yohei -- Okafuji, Tatsuya -- Su, Yuhong -- Naser, Iftekhar Bin -- Ahmed, Giasuddin -- Zhang, Sanbing -- Chen, Sandy -- Ohta, Kunimasa -- Kiyonari, Hiroshi -- Abe, Takaya -- Tanaka, Satomi -- Nishinakamura, Ryuichi -- Terashima, Toshio -- Kitamura, Toshio -- Tanaka, Hideaki -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 16;323(5912):388-93. doi: 10.1126/science.1165187.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Developmental Neurobiology, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kumamoto University, 1-1-1 Honjo, Kumamoto 860-8556, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19150847" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    KLF family members regulate intrinsic axon regeneration ability (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-10-10
    Beschreibung: Neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) lose their ability to regenerate early in development, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. By screening genes developmentally regulated in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), we identified Kruppel-like factor-4 (KLF4) as a transcriptional repressor of axon growth in RGCs and other CNS neurons. RGCs lacking KLF4 showed increased axon growth both in vitro and after optic nerve injury in vivo. Related KLF family members suppressed or enhanced axon growth to differing extents, and several growth-suppressive KLFs were up-regulated postnatally, whereas growth-enhancing KLFs were down-regulated. Thus, coordinated activities of different KLFs regulate the regenerative capacity of CNS neurons.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2882032/" 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/PMC2882032/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moore, Darcie L -- Blackmore, Murray G -- Hu, Ying -- Kaestner, Klaus H -- Bixby, John L -- Lemmon, Vance P -- Goldberg, Jeffrey L -- P30 EY014801/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS059866/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS059866-01A2/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS061348/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS061348-01A2/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS061348-02/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS061348-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS061348-04/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R03 EY016790/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R03 EY016790-01/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R03 EY016790-02/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R03 EY016790-03/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- T32 NS007459/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- T32 NS07492/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 9;326(5950):298-301. doi: 10.1126/science.1175737.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL 33136, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19815778" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Different global patterns of brain activity are associated with distinct arousal and behavioral states of an animal, but how the brain rapidly switches between different states remains unclear. We here report that repetitive high-frequency burst spiking of a single rat cortical neuron could trigger a switch between the cortical states resembling slow-wave and rapid-eye-movement sleep. This is reflected in the switching of the membrane potential of the stimulated neuron from slow UP/DOWN oscillations to a persistent-UP state or vice versa, with concurrent changes in the temporal pattern of cortical local field potential (LFP) recorded several millimeters away. These results point to the power of single cortical neurons in modulating the behavioral state of an animal.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2913066/" 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/PMC2913066/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, Cheng-Yu T -- Poo, Mu-Ming -- Dan, Yang -- R01 EY018861/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY018861-01/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 1;324(5927):643-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1169957.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Neurobiology, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, Helen Wills Institute of Neuroscience, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19407203" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Knockout rats via embryo microinjection of zinc-finger nucleases (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-25
    Beschreibung: The toolbox of rat genetics currently lacks the ability to introduce site-directed, heritable mutations into the genome to create knockout animals. By using engineered zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) designed to target an integrated reporter and two endogenous rat genes, Immunoglobulin M (IgM) and Rab38, we demonstrate that a single injection of DNA or messenger RNA encoding ZFNs into the one-cell rat embryo leads to a high frequency of animals carrying 25 to 100% disruption at the target locus. These mutations are faithfully and efficiently transmitted through the germline. Our data demonstrate the feasibility of targeted gene disruption in multiple rat strains within 4 months time, paving the way to a humanized monoclonal antibody platform and additional human disease models.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2831805/" 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/PMC2831805/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Geurts, Aron M -- Cost, Gregory J -- Freyvert, Yevgeniy -- Zeitler, Bryan -- Miller, Jeffrey C -- Choi, Vivian M -- Jenkins, Shirin S -- Wood, Adam -- Cui, Xiaoxia -- Meng, Xiangdong -- Vincent, Anna -- Lam, Stephen -- Michalkiewicz, Mieczyslaw -- Schilling, Rebecca -- Foeckler, Jamie -- Kalloway, Shawn -- Weiler, Hartmut -- Menoret, Severine -- Anegon, Ignacio -- Davis, Gregory D -- Zhang, Lei -- Rebar, Edward J -- Gregory, Philip D -- Urnov, Fyodor D -- Jacob, Howard J -- Buelow, Roland -- 5P01HL082798-03/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- 5U01HL066579-08/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01 HL082798/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01 HL082798-03/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL066579/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL066579-08/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 24;325(5939):433. doi: 10.1126/science.1172447.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Human and Molecular Genetics Center, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI 52336, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19628861" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of splenic reservoir monocytes and their deployment to inflammatory sites (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-01
    Beschreibung: A current paradigm states that monocytes circulate freely and patrol blood vessels but differentiate irreversibly into dendritic cells (DCs) or macrophages upon tissue entry. Here we show that bona fide undifferentiated monocytes reside in the spleen and outnumber their equivalents in circulation. The reservoir monocytes assemble in clusters in the cords of the subcapsular red pulp and are distinct from macrophages and DCs. In response to ischemic myocardial injury, splenic monocytes increase their motility, exit the spleen en masse, accumulate in injured tissue, and participate in wound healing. These observations uncover a role for the spleen as a site for storage and rapid deployment of monocytes and identify splenic monocytes as a resource that the body exploits to regulate inflammation.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2803111/" 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/PMC2803111/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Swirski, Filip K -- Nahrendorf, Matthias -- Etzrodt, Martin -- Wildgruber, Moritz -- Cortez-Retamozo, Virna -- Panizzi, Peter -- Figueiredo, Jose-Luiz -- Kohler, Rainer H -- Chudnovskiy, Aleksey -- Waterman, Peter -- Aikawa, Elena -- Mempel, Thorsten R -- Libby, Peter -- Weissleder, Ralph -- Pittet, Mikael J -- 1R01HL095612/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- P01 A154904/PHS HHS/ -- P01 AI054904/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P01 AI054904-010001/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA086355/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA086355-07/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA86355/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R00 HL094533/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL095629/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL096576/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R24 CA69246/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL080731/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL080731-05/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U54 CA126515/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 31;325(5940):612-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1175202.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Systems Biology, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA. fswirski@mgh.harvard.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19644120" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Conversion of 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in mammalian DNA by MLL partner TET1 (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-04-18
    Beschreibung: DNA cytosine methylation is crucial for retrotransposon silencing and mammalian development. In a computational search for enzymes that could modify 5-methylcytosine (5mC), we identified TET proteins as mammalian homologs of the trypanosome proteins JBP1 and JBP2, which have been proposed to oxidize the 5-methyl group of thymine. We show here that TET1, a fusion partner of the MLL gene in acute myeloid leukemia, is a 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)- and Fe(II)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes conversion of 5mC to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) in cultured cells and in vitro. hmC is present in the genome of mouse embryonic stem cells, and hmC levels decrease upon RNA interference-mediated depletion of TET1. Thus, TET proteins have potential roles in epigenetic regulation through modification of 5mC to hmC.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2715015/" 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/PMC2715015/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tahiliani, Mamta -- Koh, Kian Peng -- Shen, Yinghua -- Pastor, William A -- Bandukwala, Hozefa -- Brudno, Yevgeny -- Agarwal, Suneet -- Iyer, Lakshminarayan M -- Liu, David R -- Aravind, L -- Rao, Anjana -- AI44432/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- K08 HL089150/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM065865/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM065865-05A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01GM065865/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 15;324(5929):930-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1170116.

    Ligand-gated chloride channels are receptors for biogenic amines in C. elegans (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-04
    Beschreibung: Biogenic amines such as serotonin and dopamine are intercellular signaling molecules that function widely as neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. We have identified in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans three ligand-gated chloride channels that are receptors for biogenic amines: LGC-53 is a high-affinity dopamine receptor, LGC-55 is a high-affinity tyramine receptor, and LGC-40 is a low-affinity serotonin receptor that is also gated by choline and acetylcholine. lgc-55 mutants are defective in a behavior that requires endogenous tyramine, which indicates that this ionotropic tyramine receptor functions in tyramine signaling in vivo. Our studies suggest that direct activation of membrane chloride conductances is a general mechanism of action for biogenic amines in the modulation of C. elegans behavior.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2963310/" 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/PMC2963310/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ringstad, Niels -- Abe, Namiko -- Horvitz, H Robert -- GM24663/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM024663/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM024663-32A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 3;325(5936):96-100. doi: 10.1126/science.1169243.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Biology, and McGovern Institute for Brain Research, MIT, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19574391" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The structure of rat liver vault at 3.5 angstrom resolution (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-20
    Beschreibung: Vaults are among the largest cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein particles and are found in numerous eukaryotic species. Roles in multidrug resistance and innate immunity have been suggested, but the cellular function remains unclear. We have determined the x-ray structure of rat liver vault at 3.5 angstrom resolution and show that the cage structure consists of a dimer of half-vaults, with each half-vault comprising 39 identical major vault protein (MVP) chains. Each MVP monomer folds into 12 domains: nine structural repeat domains, a shoulder domain, a cap-helix domain, and a cap-ring domain. Interactions between the 42-turn-long cap-helix domains are key to stabilizing the particle. The shoulder domain is structurally similar to a core domain of stomatin, a lipid-raft component in erythrocytes and epithelial cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanaka, Hideaki -- Kato, Koji -- Yamashita, Eiki -- Sumizawa, Tomoyuki -- Zhou, Yong -- Yao, Min -- Iwasaki, Kenji -- Yoshimura, Masato -- Tsukihara, Tomitake -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 16;323(5912):384-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1164975.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Protein Research, Osaka University, 3-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19150846" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Analysis of Drosophila segmentation network identifies a JNK pathway factor overexpressed in kidney cancer (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-24
    Beschreibung: We constructed a large-scale functional network model in Drosophila melanogaster built around two key transcription factors involved in the process of embryonic segmentation. Analysis of the model allowed the identification of a new role for the ubiquitin E3 ligase complex factor SPOP. In Drosophila, the gene encoding SPOP is a target of segmentation transcription factors. Drosophila SPOP mediates degradation of the Jun kinase phosphatase Puckered, thereby inducing tumor necrosis factor (TNF)/Eiger-dependent apoptosis. In humans, we found that SPOP plays a conserved role in TNF-mediated JNK signaling and was highly expressed in 99% of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (RCCs), the most prevalent form of kidney cancer. SPOP expression distinguished histological subtypes of RCC and facilitated identification of clear cell RCC as the primary tumor for metastatic lesions.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2756524/" 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/PMC2756524/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, Jiang -- Ghanim, Murad -- Xue, Lei -- Brown, Christopher D -- Iossifov, Ivan -- Angeletti, Cesar -- Hua, Sujun -- Negre, Nicolas -- Ludwig, Michael -- Stricker, Thomas -- Al-Ahmadie, Hikmat A -- Tretiakova, Maria -- Camp, Robert L -- Perera-Alberto, Montse -- Rimm, David L -- Xu, Tian -- Rzhetsky, Andrey -- White, Kevin P -- P50 GM081892/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P50 GM081892-01A1/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003012/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003012-04/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- UL1 RR024999/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- UL1 RR024999-02/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 27;323(5918):1218-22. doi: 10.1126/science.1157669.

    Crystal structure of the eukaryotic strong inward-rectifier K+ channel Kir2.2 at 3.1 A resolution (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-19
    Beschreibung: Inward-rectifier potassium (K+) channels conduct K+ ions most efficiently in one direction, into the cell. Kir2 channels control the resting membrane voltage in many electrically excitable cells, and heritable mutations cause periodic paralysis and cardiac arrhythmia. We present the crystal structure of Kir2.2 from chicken, which, excluding the unstructured amino and carboxyl termini, is 90% identical to human Kir2.2. Crystals containing rubidium (Rb+), strontium (Sr2+), and europium (Eu3+) reveal binding sites along the ion conduction pathway that are both conductive and inhibitory. The sites correlate with extensive electrophysiological data and provide a structural basis for understanding rectification. The channel's extracellular surface, with large structured turrets and an unusual selectivity filter entryway, might explain the relative insensitivity of eukaryotic inward rectifiers to toxins. These same surface features also suggest a possible approach to the development of inhibitory agents specific to each member of the inward-rectifier K+ channel family.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2819303/" 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/PMC2819303/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tao, Xiao -- Avalos, Jose L -- Chen, Jiayun -- MacKinnon, Roderick -- P30 EB009998/EB/NIBIB NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-10/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-11/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-12/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-13/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-14/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-15/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-16/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-17/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-18/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-19/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM043949-20/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 18;326(5960):1668-74. doi: 10.1126/science.1180310.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Neurobiology and Biophysics, Rockefeller University, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10065, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20019282" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Membrane fusion between vesicles and target membranes involves the zippering of a four-helix bundle generated by constituent helices derived from target- and vesicle-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs). In neurons, the protein complexin clamps otherwise spontaneous fusion by SNARE proteins, allowing neurotransmitters and other mediators to be secreted when and where they are needed as this clamp is released. The membrane-proximal accessory helix of complexin is necessary for clamping, but its mechanism of action is unknown. Here, we present experiments using a reconstituted fusion system that suggest a simple model in which the complexin accessory helix forms an alternative four-helix bundle with the target-SNARE near the membrane, preventing the vesicle-SNARE from completing its zippering.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3736854/" 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/PMC3736854/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Giraudo, Claudio G -- Garcia-Diaz, Alejandro -- Eng, William S -- Chen, Yuhang -- Hendrickson, Wayne A -- Melia, Thomas J -- Rothman, James E -- R01 GM071458/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 23;323(5913):512-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1166500.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology and Cellular Biophysics, Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons, 1150 Saint Nicholas Avenue, Russ Berrie Building, Room 520, New York, NY 10032, USA. claudio.giraudo@yale.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19164750" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dopamine controls persistence of long-term memory storage (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-22
    Beschreibung: The paradigmatic feature of long-term memory (LTM) is its persistence. However, little is known about the mechanisms that make some LTMs last longer than others. In rats, a long-lasting fear LTM vanished rapidly when the D1 dopamine receptor antagonist SCH23390 was injected into the dorsal hippocampus 12 hours, but not immediately or 9 hours, after the fearful experience. Conversely, intrahippocampal application of the D1 agonist SK38393 at the same critical post-training time converted a rapidly decaying fear LTM into a persistent one. This effect was mediated by brain-derived neurotrophic factor and regulated by the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Thus, the persistence of LTM depends on activation of VTA/hippocampus dopaminergic connections and can be specifically modulated by manipulating this system at definite post-learning time points.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rossato, Janine I -- Bevilaqua, Lia R M -- Izquierdo, Ivan -- Medina, Jorge H -- Cammarota, Martin -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 21;325(5943):1017-20. doi: 10.1126/science.1172545.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centro de Memoria, Instituto do Cerebro, Pontificia Universidade Catolica do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19696353" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    C3PO, an endoribonuclease that promotes RNAi by facilitating RISC activation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-08
    Beschreibung: The catalytic engine of RNA interference (RNAi) is the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), wherein the endoribonuclease Argonaute and single-stranded small interfering RNA (siRNA) direct target mRNA cleavage. We reconstituted long double-stranded RNA- and duplex siRNA-initiated RISC activities with the use of recombinant Drosophila Dicer-2, R2D2, and Ago2 proteins. We used this core reconstitution system to purify an RNAi regulator that we term C3PO (component 3 promoter of RISC), a complex of Translin and Trax. C3PO is a Mg2+-dependent endoribonuclease that promotes RISC activation by removing siRNA passenger strand cleavage products. These studies establish an in vitro RNAi reconstitution system and identify C3PO as a key activator of the core RNAi machinery.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2855623/" 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/PMC2855623/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, Ying -- Ye, Xuecheng -- Jiang, Feng -- Liang, Chunyang -- Chen, Dongmei -- Peng, Junmin -- Kinch, Lisa N -- Grishin, Nick V -- Liu, Qinghua -- AG025688/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- GM078163/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM084010/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM078163/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM078163-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM084010/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM084010-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 7;325(5941):750-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1176325.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75390, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19661431" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Benzothiazinones kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis by blocking arabinan synthesis (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-21
    Beschreibung: New drugs are required to counter the tuberculosis (TB) pandemic. Here, we describe the synthesis and characterization of 1,3-benzothiazin-4-ones (BTZs), a new class of antimycobacterial agents that kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, ex vivo, and in mouse models of TB. Using genetics and biochemistry, we identified the enzyme decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-d-ribose 2'-epimerase as a major BTZ target. Inhibition of this enzymatic activity abolishes the formation of decaprenylphosphoryl arabinose, a key precursor that is required for the synthesis of the cell-wall arabinans, thus provoking cell lysis and bacterial death. The most advanced compound, BTZ043, is a candidate for inclusion in combination therapies for both drug-sensitive and extensively drug-resistant TB.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3128490/" 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/PMC3128490/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Makarov, Vadim -- Manina, Giulia -- Mikusova, Katarina -- Mollmann, Ute -- Ryabova, Olga -- Saint-Joanis, Brigitte -- Dhar, Neeraj -- Pasca, Maria Rosalia -- Buroni, Silvia -- Lucarelli, Anna Paola -- Milano, Anna -- De Rossi, Edda -- Belanova, Martina -- Bobovska, Adela -- Dianiskova, Petronela -- Kordulakova, Jana -- Sala, Claudia -- Fullam, Elizabeth -- Schneider, Patricia -- McKinney, John D -- Brodin, Priscille -- Christophe, Thierry -- Waddell, Simon -- Butcher, Philip -- Albrethsen, Jakob -- Rosenkrands, Ida -- Brosch, Roland -- Nandi, Vrinda -- Bharath, Sowmya -- Gaonkar, Sheshagiri -- Shandil, Radha K -- Balasubramanian, Venkataraman -- Balganesh, Tanjore -- Tyagi, Sandeep -- Grosset, Jacques -- Riccardi, Giovanna -- Cole, Stewart T -- 062511/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 080039/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 8;324(5928):801-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1171583.

    Input-specific spine entry of soma-derived Vesl-1S protein conforms to synaptic tagging (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-16
    Beschreibung: Late-phase synaptic plasticity depends on the synthesis of new proteins that must function only in the activated synapses. The synaptic tag hypothesis requires input-specific functioning of these proteins after undirected transport. Confirmation of this hypothesis requires specification of a biochemical tagging activity and an example protein that behaves as the hypothesis predicts. We found that in rat neurons, soma-derived Vesl-1S (Homer-1a) protein, a late-phase plasticity-related synaptic protein, prevailed in every dendrite and did not enter spines. N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor activation triggered input-specific spine entry of Vesl-1S proteins, which met many criteria for synaptic tagging. These results suggest that Vesl-1S supports the hypothesis and that the activity-dependent regulation of spine entry functions as a synaptic tag.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Okada, Daisuke -- Ozawa, Fumiko -- Inokuchi, Kaoru -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 15;324(5929):904-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1171498.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Mitsubishi Kagaku Institute of Life Sciences (MITILS), 11 Minamiooya, Machida, Tokyo 194-8511, Japan. dada@mitils.jp〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19443779" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A periplasmic reducing system protects single cysteine residues from oxidation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: The thiol group of the amino acid cysteine can be modified to regulate protein activity. The Escherichia coli periplasm is an oxidizing environment in which most cysteine residues are involved in disulfide bonds. However, many periplasmic proteins contain single cysteine residues, which are vulnerable to oxidation to sulfenic acids and then irreversibly modified to sulfinic and sulfonic acids. We discovered that DsbG and DsbC, two thioredoxin-related proteins, control the global sulfenic acid content of the periplasm and protect single cysteine residues from oxidation. DsbG interacts with the YbiS protein and, along with DsbC, regulates oxidation of its catalytic cysteine residue. Thus, a potentially widespread mechanism controls sulfenic acid modification in the cellular environment.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Depuydt, Matthieu -- Leonard, Stephen E -- Vertommen, Didier -- Denoncin, Katleen -- Morsomme, Pierre -- Wahni, Khadija -- Messens, Joris -- Carroll, Kate S -- Collet, Jean-Francois -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 20;326(5956):1109-11. doi: 10.1126/science.1179557.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉de Duve Institute, Universite catholique de Louvain, B-1200 Brussels, Belgium.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965429" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Solution nuclear magnetic resonance structure of membrane-integral diacylglycerol kinase (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-06-27
    Beschreibung: Escherichia coli diacylglycerol kinase (DAGK) represents a family of integral membrane enzymes that is unrelated to all other phosphotransferases. We have determined the three-dimensional structure of the DAGK homotrimer with the use of solution nuclear magnetic resonance. The third transmembrane helix from each subunit is domain-swapped with the first and second transmembrane segments from an adjacent subunit. Each of DAGK's three active sites resembles a portico. The cornice of the portico appears to be the determinant of DAGK's lipid substrate specificity and overhangs the site of phosphoryl transfer near the water-membrane interface. Mutations to cysteine that caused severe misfolding were located in or near the active site, indicating a high degree of overlap between sites responsible for folding and for catalysis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2764269/" 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/PMC2764269/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Van Horn, Wade D -- Kim, Hak-Jun -- Ellis, Charles D -- Hadziselimovic, Arina -- Sulistijo, Endah S -- Karra, Murthy D -- Tian, Changlin -- Sonnichsen, Frank D -- Sanders, Charles R -- R01 GM047485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM047485-17/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM47485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 NS007491/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- T32 NS007491-09/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 26;324(5935):1726-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1171716.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Center for Structural Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37232, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19556511" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A sulfilimine bond identified in collagen IV (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-05
    Beschreibung: Collagen IV networks are ancient proteins of basement membranes that underlie epithelia in metazoa from sponge to human. The networks provide structural integrity to tissues and serve as ligands for integrin cell-surface receptors. They are assembled by oligomerization of triple-helical protomers and are covalently crosslinked, a key reinforcement that stabilizes networks. We used Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to show that a sulfilimine bond (-S=N-) crosslinks hydroxylysine-211 and methionine-93 of adjoining protomers, a bond not previously found in biomolecules. This bond, the nitrogen analog of a sulfoxide, appears to have arisen at the divergence of sponge and cnidaria, an adaptation of the extracellular matrix in response to mechanical stress in metazoan evolution.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2876822/" 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/PMC2876822/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vanacore, Roberto -- Ham, Amy-Joan L -- Voehler, Markus -- Sanders, Charles R -- Conrads, Thomas P -- Veenstra, Timothy D -- Sharpless, K Barry -- Dawson, Philip E -- Hudson, Billy G -- DC007416/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- DK065123/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK18381/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM059380/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK065123/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK065123-07/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DC007416/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- R01 DC007416-05/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059380/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059380-09/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK018381/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK018381-37/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 4;325(5945):1230-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1176811.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine and Center for Matrix Biology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37232, USA. roberto.vanacore@vanderbilt.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19729652" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Biomolecular characterization and protein sequences of the Campanian hadrosaur B. canadensis (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-02
    Beschreibung: Molecular preservation in non-avian dinosaurs is controversial. We present multiple lines of evidence that endogenous proteinaceous material is preserved in bone fragments and soft tissues from an 80-million-year-old Campanian hadrosaur, Brachylophosaurus canadensis [Museum of the Rockies (MOR) 2598]. Microstructural and immunological data are consistent with preservation of multiple bone matrix and vessel proteins, and phylogenetic analyses of Brachylophosaurus collagen sequenced by mass spectrometry robustly support the bird-dinosaur clade, consistent with an endogenous source for these collagen peptides. These data complement earlier results from Tyrannosaurus rex (MOR 1125) and confirm that molecular preservation in Cretaceous dinosaurs is not a unique event.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schweitzer, Mary H -- Zheng, Wenxia -- Organ, Chris L -- Avci, Recep -- Suo, Zhiyong -- Freimark, Lisa M -- Lebleu, Valerie S -- Duncan, Michael B -- Vander Heiden, Matthew G -- Neveu, John M -- Lane, William S -- Cottrell, John S -- Horner, John R -- Cantley, Lewis C -- Kalluri, Raghu -- Asara, John M -- AA 13913/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- CA 125550/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK 55001/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK 61866/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK 62987/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 AA013913/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA125550/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK055001/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK062987/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 1;324(5927):626-31. doi: 10.1126/science.1165069.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC 27695, USA. schweitzer@ncsu.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19407199" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Regulators of PP2C phosphatase activity function as abscisic acid sensors (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-02
    Beschreibung: The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) acts as a developmental signal and as an integrator of environmental cues such as drought and cold. Key players in ABA signal transduction include the type 2C protein phosphatases (PP2Cs) ABI1 and ABI2, which act by negatively regulating ABA responses. In this study, we identify interactors of ABI1 and ABI2 which we have named regulatory components of ABA receptor (RCARs). In Arabidopsis, RCARs belong to a family with 14 members that share structural similarity with class 10 pathogen-related proteins. RCAR1 was shown to bind ABA, to mediate ABA-dependent inactivation of ABI1 or ABI2 in vitro, and to antagonize PP2C action in planta. Other RCARs also mediated ABA-dependent regulation of ABI1 and ABI2, consistent with a combinatorial assembly of receptor complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ma, Yue -- Szostkiewicz, Izabela -- Korte, Arthur -- Moes, Daniele -- Yang, Yi -- Christmann, Alexander -- Grill, Erwin -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 22;324(5930):1064-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1172408.

    Fast synaptic subcortical control of hippocampal circuits (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-10-17
    Beschreibung: Cortical information processing is under state-dependent control of subcortical neuromodulatory systems. Although this modulatory effect is thought to be mediated mainly by slow nonsynaptic metabotropic receptors, other mechanisms, such as direct synaptic transmission, are possible. Yet, it is currently unknown if any such form of subcortical control exists. Here, we present direct evidence of a strong, spatiotemporally precise excitatory input from an ascending neuromodulatory center. Selective stimulation of serotonergic median raphe neurons produced a rapid activation of hippocampal interneurons. At the network level, this subcortical drive was manifested as a pattern of effective disynaptic GABAergic inhibition that spread throughout the circuit. This form of subcortical network regulation should be incorporated into current concepts of normal and pathological cortical function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Varga, Viktor -- Losonczy, Attila -- Zemelman, Boris V -- Borhegyi, Zsolt -- Nyiri, Gabor -- Domonkos, Andor -- Hangya, Balazs -- Holderith, Noemi -- Magee, Jeffrey C -- Freund, Tamas F -- HHMI55005608/Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- MH-54671/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 16;326(5951):449-53. doi: 10.1126/science.1178307.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Experimental Medicine, Budapest 1083, Hungary. vargav@koki.hu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19833972" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Ventral tegmental area BDNF induces an opiate-dependent-like reward state in naive rats (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-30
    Beschreibung: The neural mechanisms underlying the transition from a drug-nondependent to a drug-dependent state remain elusive. Chronic exposure to drugs has been shown to increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in ventral tegmental area (VTA) neurons. BDNF infusions into the VTA potentiate several behavioral effects of drugs, including psychomotor sensitization and cue-induced drug seeking. We found that a single infusion of BDNF into the VTA promotes a shift from a dopamine-independent to a dopamine-dependent opiate reward system, identical to that seen when an opiate-naive rat becomes dependent and withdrawn. This shift involves a switch in the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors of VTA GABAergic neurons, from inhibitory to excitatory signaling.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2913611/" 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/PMC2913611/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vargas-Perez, Hector -- Ting-A Kee, Ryan -- Walton, Christine H -- Hansen, D Micah -- Razavi, Rozita -- Clarke, Laura -- Bufalino, Mary Rose -- Allison, David W -- Steffensen, Scott C -- van der Kooy, Derek -- AA13666/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AA013666/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AA013666-09/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AA020919/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 26;324(5935):1732-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1168501.

    Chronic stress causes frontostriatal reorganization and affects decision-making (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-01
    Beschreibung: The ability to shift between different behavioral strategies is necessary for appropriate decision-making. Here, we show that chronic stress biases decision-making strategies, affecting the ability of stressed animals to perform actions on the basis of their consequences. Using two different operant tasks, we revealed that, in making choices, rats subjected to chronic stress became insensitive to changes in outcome value and resistant to changes in action-outcome contingency. Furthermore, chronic stress caused opposing structural changes in the associative and sensorimotor corticostriatal circuits underlying these different behavioral strategies, with atrophy of medial prefrontal cortex and the associative striatum and hypertrophy of the sensorimotor striatum. These data suggest that the relative advantage of circuits coursing through sensorimotor striatum observed after chronic stress leads to a bias in behavioral strategies toward habit.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dias-Ferreira, Eduardo -- Sousa, Joao C -- Melo, Irene -- Morgado, Pedro -- Mesquita, Ana R -- Cerqueira, Joao J -- Costa, Rui M -- Sousa, Nuno -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 31;325(5940):621-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1171203.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Life and Health Sciences Research Institute (ICVS), School of Health Sciences, University of Minho, 4710-057 Braga, Portugal.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19644122" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A human telomerase holoenzyme protein required for Cajal body localization and telomere synthesis (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-31
    Beschreibung: Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex that synthesizes telomere repeats in tissue progenitor cells and cancer cells. Active human telomerase consists of at least three principal subunits, including the telomerase reverse transcriptase, the telomerase RNA (TERC), and dyskerin. Here, we identify a holoenzyme subunit, TCAB1 (telomerase Cajal body protein 1), that is notably enriched in Cajal bodies, nuclear sites of RNP processing that are important for telomerase function. TCAB1 associates with active telomerase enzyme, established telomerase components, and small Cajal body RNAs that are involved in modifying splicing RNAs. Depletion of TCAB1 by using RNA interference prevents TERC from associating with Cajal bodies, disrupts telomerase-telomere association, and abrogates telomere synthesis by telomerase. Thus, TCAB1 controls telomerase trafficking and is required for telomere synthesis in human cancer cells.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2728071/" 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/PMC2728071/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Venteicher, Andrew S -- Abreu, Eladio B -- Meng, Zhaojing -- McCann, Kelly E -- Terns, Rebecca M -- Veenstra, Timothy D -- Terns, Michael P -- Artandi, Steven E -- CA104676/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA111691/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA125453/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM07365/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- N01-CO-12400/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA111691/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA111691-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA125453/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA125453-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 30;323(5914):644-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1165357.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Stanford School of Medicine, Stanford, CA 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19179534" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Overexpression of alpha2A-adrenergic receptors contributes to type 2 diabetes (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Several common genetic variations have been associated with type 2 diabetes, but the exact disease mechanisms are still poorly elucidated. Using congenic strains from the diabetic Goto-Kakizaki rat, we identified a 1.4-megabase genomic locus that was linked to impaired insulin granule docking at the plasma membrane and reduced beta cell exocytosis. In this locus, Adra2a, encoding the alpha2A-adrenergic receptor [alpha(2A)AR], was significantly overexpressed. Alpha(2A)AR mediates adrenergic suppression of insulin secretion. Pharmacological receptor antagonism, silencing of receptor expression, or blockade of downstream effectors rescued insulin secretion in congenic islets. Furthermore, we identified a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the human ADRA2A gene for which risk allele carriers exhibited overexpression of alpha(2A)AR, reduced insulin secretion, and increased type 2 diabetes risk. Human pancreatic islets from risk allele carriers exhibited reduced granule docking and secreted less insulin in response to glucose; both effects were counteracted by pharmacological alpha(2A)AR antagonists.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rosengren, Anders H -- Jokubka, Ramunas -- Tojjar, Damon -- Granhall, Charlotte -- Hansson, Ola -- Li, Dai-Qing -- Nagaraj, Vini -- Reinbothe, Thomas M -- Tuncel, Jonatan -- Eliasson, Lena -- Groop, Leif -- Rorsman, Patrik -- Salehi, Albert -- Lyssenko, Valeriya -- Luthman, Holger -- Renstrom, Erik -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 8;327(5962):217-20. doi: 10.1126/science.1176827.

    Structure of an RNA polymerase II-TFIIB complex and the transcription initiation mechanism (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Previous x-ray crystal structures have given insight into the mechanism of transcription and the role of general transcription factors in the initiation of the process. A structure of an RNA polymerase II-general transcription factor TFIIB complex at 4.5 angstrom resolution revealed the amino-terminal region of TFIIB, including a loop termed the "B finger," reaching into the active center of the polymerase where it may interact with both DNA and RNA, but this structure showed little of the carboxyl-terminal region. A new crystal structure of the same complex at 3.8 angstrom resolution obtained under different solution conditions is complementary with the previous one, revealing the carboxyl-terminal region of TFIIB, located above the polymerase active center cleft, but showing none of the B finger. In the new structure, the linker between the amino- and carboxyl-terminal regions can also be seen, snaking down from above the cleft toward the active center. The two structures, taken together with others previously obtained, dispel long-standing mysteries of the transcription initiation process.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2813267/" 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/PMC2813267/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liu, Xin -- Bushnell, David A -- Wang, Dong -- Calero, Guillermo -- Kornberg, Roger D -- AI21144/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM049985/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- K99 GM085136/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- K99 GM085136-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R00 GM085136/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI021144/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI021144-25/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM036659/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM049985/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM049985-16/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 8;327(5962):206-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1182015.

    Induction of synaptic long-term potentiation after opioid withdrawal (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-11
    Beschreibung: mu-Opioid receptor (MOR) agonists represent the gold standard for the treatment of severe pain but may paradoxically also enhance pain sensitivity, that is, lead to opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH). We show that abrupt withdrawal from MOR agonists induces long-term potentiation (LTP) at the first synapse in pain pathways. Induction of opioid withdrawal LTP requires postsynaptic activation of heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors and a rise of postsynaptic calcium concentrations. In contrast, the acute depression by opioids is induced presynaptically at these synapses. Withdrawal LTP can be prevented by tapered withdrawal and shares pharmacology and signal transduction pathways with OIH. These findings provide a previously unrecognized target to selectively combat pro-nociceptive effects of opioids without compromising opioid analgesia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Drdla, Ruth -- Gassner, Matthias -- Gingl, Ewald -- Sandkuhler, Jurgen -- P 18129/Austrian Science Fund FWF/Austria -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 10;325(5937):207-10. doi: 10.1126/science.1171759.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurophysiology, Center for Brain Research, Medical University of Vienna, Spitalgasse 4, 1090 Vienna, Austria.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19590003" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Ankyrin-G promotes cyclic nucleotide-gated channel transport to rod photoreceptor sensory cilia (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-21
    Beschreibung: Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels localize exclusively to the plasma membrane of photosensitive outer segments of rod photoreceptors where they generate the electrical response to light. Here, we report the finding that targeting of CNG channels to the rod outer segment required their interaction with ankyrin-G. Ankyrin-G localized exclusively to rod outer segments, coimmunoprecipitated with the CNG channel, and bound to the C-terminal domain of the channel beta1 subunit. Ankyrin-G depletion in neonatal mouse retinas markedly reduced CNG channel expression. Transgenic expression of CNG channel beta-subunit mutants in Xenopus rods showed that ankyrin-G binding was necessary and sufficient for targeting of the beta1 subunit to outer segments. Thus, ankyrin-G is required for transport of CNG channels to the plasma membrane of rod outer segments.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2792576/" 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/PMC2792576/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kizhatil, Krishnakumar -- Baker, Sheila A -- Arshavsky, Vadim Y -- Bennett, Vann -- EY12859/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- P30 EY005722/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- P30 EY005722-23/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY012859/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY012859-10/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 20;323(5921):1614-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1169789.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, 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/19299621" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Complexin controls the force transfer from SNARE complexes to membranes in fusion (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-24
    Beschreibung: Trans-SNAP receptor (SNARE, where SNAP is defined as soluble NSF attachment protein, and NSF is defined as N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor) complexes catalyze synaptic vesicle fusion and bind complexin, but the function of complexin binding to SNARE complexes remains unclear. Here we show that in neuronal synapses, complexin simultaneously suppressed spontaneous fusion and activated fast calcium ion-evoked fusion. The dual function of complexin required SNARE binding and also involved distinct amino-terminal sequences of complexin that localize to the point where trans-SNARE complexes insert into the fusing membranes, suggesting that complexin controls the force that trans-SNARE complexes apply onto the fusing membranes. Consistent with this hypothesis, a mutation in the membrane insertion sequence of the v-SNARE synaptobrevin/vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP) phenocopied the complexin loss-of-function state without impairing complexin binding to SNARE complexes. Thus, complexin probably activates and clamps the force transfer from assembled trans-SNARE complexes onto fusing membranes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3235366/" 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/PMC3235366/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Maximov, Anton -- Tang, Jiong -- Yang, Xiaofei -- Pang, Zhiping P -- Sudhof, Thomas C -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 23;323(5913):516-21. doi: 10.1126/science.1166505.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX 75390, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19164751" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    tasselseed1 is a lipoxygenase affecting jasmonic acid signaling in sex determination of maize (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-10
    Beschreibung: Sex determination in maize is controlled by a developmental cascade leading to the formation of unisexual florets derived from an initially bisexual floral meristem. Abortion of pistil primordia in staminate florets is controlled by a tasselseed-mediated cell death process. We positionally cloned and characterized the function of the sex determination gene tasselseed1 (ts1). The TS1 protein encodes a plastid-targeted lipoxygenase with predicted 13-lipoxygenase specificity, which suggests that TS1 may be involved in the biosynthesis of the plant hormone jasmonic acid. In the absence of a functional ts1 gene, lipoxygenase activity was missing and endogenous jasmonic acid concentrations were reduced in developing inflorescences. Application of jasmonic acid to developing inflorescences rescued stamen development in mutant ts1 and ts2 inflorescences, revealing a role for jasmonic acid in male flower development in maize.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Acosta, Ivan F -- Laparra, Helene -- Romero, Sandra P -- Schmelz, Eric -- Hamberg, Mats -- Mottinger, John P -- Moreno, Maria A -- Dellaporta, Stephen L -- R01 GM038148/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM038148-19/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM38148/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 9;323(5911):262-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1164645.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19131630" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mammalian expression of infrared fluorescent proteins engineered from a bacterial phytochrome (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-05-09
    Beschreibung: Visibly fluorescent proteins (FPs) from jellyfish and corals have revolutionized many areas of molecular and cell biology, but the use of FPs in intact animals, such as mice, has been handicapped by poor penetration of excitation light. We now show that a bacteriophytochrome from Deinococcus radiodurans, incorporating biliverdin as the chromophore, can be engineered into monomeric, infrared-fluorescent proteins (IFPs), with excitation and emission maxima of 684 and 708 nm, respectively; extinction coefficient 〉90,000 M(-1) cm(-1); and quantum yield of 0.07. IFPs express well in mammalian cells and mice and spontaneously incorporate biliverdin, which is ubiquitous as the initial intermediate in heme catabolism but has negligible fluorescence by itself. Because their wavelengths penetrate tissue well, IFPs are suitable for whole-body imaging. The IFPs developed here provide a scaffold for further engineering.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2763207/" 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/PMC2763207/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shu, Xiaokun -- Royant, Antoine -- Lin, Michael Z -- Aguilera, Todd A -- Lev-Ram, Varda -- Steinbach, Paul A -- Tsien, Roger Y -- R01 CA158448/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM086197/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM086197-01/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS027177/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 8;324(5928):804-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1168683.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California at San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA 92093-0647, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19423828" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Jmjd6 catalyses lysyl-hydroxylation of U2AF65, a protein associated with RNA splicing (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-04
    Beschreibung: The finding that the metazoan hypoxic response is regulated by oxygen-dependent posttranslational hydroxylations, which regulate the activity and lifetime of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), has raised the question of whether other hydroxylases are involved in the regulation of gene expression. We reveal that the splicing factor U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein auxiliary factor 65-kilodalton subunit (U2AF65) undergoes posttranslational lysyl-5-hydroxylation catalyzed by the Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase Jumonji domain-6 protein (Jmjd6). Jmjd6 is a nuclear protein that has an important role in vertebrate development and is a human homolog of the HIF asparaginyl-hydroxylase. Jmjd6 is shown to change alternative RNA splicing of some, but not all, of the endogenous and reporter genes, supporting a specific role for Jmjd6 in the regulation of RNA splicing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Webby, Celia J -- Wolf, Alexander -- Gromak, Natalia -- Dreger, Mathias -- Kramer, Holger -- Kessler, Benedikt -- Nielsen, Michael L -- Schmitz, Corinna -- Butler, Danica S -- Yates, John R 3rd -- Delahunty, Claire M -- Hahn, Phillip -- Lengeling, Andreas -- Mann, Matthias -- Proudfoot, Nicholas J -- Schofield, Christopher J -- Bottger, Angelika -- 084655/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- G9826944/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 3;325(5936):90-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1175865.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chemistry Research Laboratory and Oxford Centre for Integrative Systems Biology, University of Oxford, 12 Mansfield Road, Oxford, Oxon OX1 3TA, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19574390" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    PAN1: a receptor-like protein that promotes polarization of an asymmetric cell division in maize (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-31
    Beschreibung: Polarization of cell division is essential for eukaryotic development, but little is known about how this is accomplished in plants. The formation of stomatal complexes in maize involves the polarization of asymmetric subsidiary mother cell (SMC) divisions toward the adjacent guard mother cell (GMC), apparently under the influence of a GMC-derived signal. We found that the maize pan1 gene promotes the premitotic polarization of SMCs and encodes a leucine-rich repeat receptor-like protein that becomes localized in SMCs at sites of GMC contact. PAN1 has an inactive kinase domain but is required for the accumulation of a membrane-associated phosphoprotein, suggesting a function for PAN1 in signal transduction. Our findings implicate PAN1 in the transmission of an extrinsic signal that polarizes asymmetric SMC divisions toward GMCs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cartwright, Heather N -- Humphries, John A -- Smith, Laurie G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 30;323(5914):649-51. doi: 10.1126/science.1161686.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Section of Cell and Developmental Biology, University of California San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, San Diego, CA 92093-0116, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19179535" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A putative ABC transporter confers durable resistance to multiple fungal pathogens in wheat (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-21
    Beschreibung: Agricultural crops benefit from resistance to pathogens that endures over years and generations of both pest and crop. Durable disease resistance, which may be partial or complete, can be controlled by several genes. Some of the most devastating fungal pathogens in wheat are leaf rust, stripe rust, and powdery mildew. The wheat gene Lr34 has supported resistance to these pathogens for more than 50 years. Lr34 is now shared by wheat cultivars around the world. Here, we show that the LR34 protein resembles adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporters of the pleiotropic drug resistance subfamily. Alleles of Lr34 conferring resistance or susceptibility differ by three genetic polymorphisms. The Lr34 gene, which functions in the adult plant, stimulates senescence-like processes in the flag leaf tips and edges.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Krattinger, Simon G -- Lagudah, Evans S -- Spielmeyer, Wolfgang -- Singh, Ravi P -- Huerta-Espino, Julio -- McFadden, Helen -- Bossolini, Eligio -- Selter, Liselotte L -- Keller, Beat -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 6;323(5919):1360-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1166453.

    Energy-efficient action potentials in hippocampal mossy fibers (2009)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-12
    Beschreibung: Action potentials in nonmyelinated axons are considered to contribute substantially to activity-dependent brain metabolism. Here we show that fast Na+ current decay and delayed K+ current onset during action potentials in nonmyelinated mossy fibers of the rat hippocampus minimize the overlap of their respective ion fluxes. This results in total Na+ influx and associated energy demand per action potential of only 1.3 times the theoretical minimum, in contrast to the factor of 4 used in previous energy budget calculations for neural activity. Analysis of ionic conductance parameters revealed that the properties of Na+ and K+ channels are matched to make axonal action potentials energy-efficient, minimizing their contribution to activity-dependent metabolism.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Alle, Henrik -- Roth, Arnd -- Geiger, Jorg R P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 11;325(5946):1405-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1174331.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Independent Hertie Research Group, Max-Planck-Institute for Brain Research, 60528 Frankfurt, Germany. henrik.alle@charite.de〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19745156" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Norbin is an endogenous regulator of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 signaling (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-17
    Beschreibung: Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is highly expressed in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). It is involved in multiple physiological functions and is a target for treatment of various CNS disorders, including schizophrenia. We report that Norbin, a neuron-specific protein, physically interacts with mGluR5 in vivo, increases the cell surface localization of the receptor, and positively regulates mGluR5 signaling. Genetic deletion of Norbin attenuates mGluR5-dependent stable changes in synaptic function measured as long-term depression or long-term potentiation of synaptic transmission in the hippocampus. As with mGluR5 knockout mice or mice treated with mGluR5-selective antagonists, Norbin knockout mice showed a behavioral phenotype associated with a rodent model of schizophrenia, as indexed by alterations both in sensorimotor gating and psychotomimetic-induced locomotor activity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2796550/" 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/PMC2796550/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, Hong -- Westin, Linda -- Nong, Yi -- Birnbaum, Shari -- Bendor, Jacob -- Brismar, Hjalmar -- Nestler, Eric -- Aperia, Anita -- Flajolet, Marc -- Greengard, Paul -- DA 10044/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- MH074866/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH66172/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-020002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-030002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-04/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-040002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-05/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-050002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-06/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-060002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-07/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-070002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-08/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-080002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-09/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-090002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-10/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-100002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-11/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-110005/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-12/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-120005/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-129002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-13/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-130005/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-139002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-14/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-140005/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-149002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-14S1/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-14S10005/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P01 DA010044-14S19002/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-010001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-020001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-030001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-039001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-040001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 MH074866-050001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 11;326(5959):1554-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1178496.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10065, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20007903" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Survival from hypoxia in C. elegans by inactivation of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-31
    Beschreibung: Hypoxia is important in a wide range of biological processes, such as animal hibernation and cell survival, and is particularly relevant in many diseases. The sensitivity of cells and organisms to hypoxic injury varies widely, but the molecular basis for this variation is incompletely understood. Using forward genetic screens in Caenorhabditis elegans, we isolated a hypoxia-resistant reduction-of-function mutant of rrt-1 that encodes an arginyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase, an enzyme essential for protein translation. Knockdown of rrt-1, and of most other genes encoding aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, rescued animals from hypoxia-induced death, and the level of hypoxia resistance was inversely correlated with translation rate. The unfolded protein response was induced by hypoxia and was required for the hypoxia resistance of the reduction-of-function mutant of rrt-1. Thus, translational suppression produces hypoxia resistance, in part by reducing unfolded protein toxicity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3739282/" 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/PMC3739282/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Anderson, Lori L -- Mao, Xianrong -- Scott, Barbara A -- Crowder, C Michael -- R01 NS045905/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 30;323(5914):630-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1166175.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Anesthesiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19179530" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Spinal endocannabinoids and CB1 receptors mediate C-fiber-induced heterosynaptic pain sensitization (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-08
    Beschreibung: Diminished synaptic inhibition in the spinal dorsal horn is a major contributor to chronic pain. Pathways that reduce synaptic inhibition in inflammatory and neuropathic pain states have been identified, but central hyperalgesia and diminished dorsal horn synaptic inhibition also occur in the absence of inflammation or neuropathy, solely triggered by intense nociceptive (C-fiber) input to the spinal dorsal horn. We found that endocannabinoids, produced upon strong nociceptive stimulation, activated type 1 cannabinoid (CB1) receptors on inhibitory dorsal horn neurons to reduce the synaptic release of gamma-aminobutyric acid and glycine and thus rendered nociceptive neurons excitable by nonpainful stimuli. Our results suggest that spinal endocannabinoids and CB1 receptors on inhibitory dorsal horn interneurons act as mediators of heterosynaptic pain sensitization and play an unexpected role in dorsal horn pain-controlling circuits.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2835775/" 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/PMC2835775/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pernia-Andrade, Alejandro J -- Kato, Ako -- Witschi, Robert -- Nyilas, Rita -- Katona, Istvan -- Freund, Tamas F -- Watanabe, Masahiko -- Filitz, Jorg -- Koppert, Wolfgang -- Schuttler, Jurgen -- Ji, Guangchen -- Neugebauer, Volker -- Marsicano, Giovanni -- Lutz, Beat -- Vanegas, Horacio -- Zeilhofer, Hanns Ulrich -- NS11255/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS38261/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS011255/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS011255-32A20042/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS011255-330042/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS038261/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS038261-08/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS038261-09/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS038261-10/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS038261-10S1/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 7;325(5941):760-4. doi: 10.1126/science.1171870.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, CH-8057 Zurich, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19661434" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Activation of Rho GTPases by DOCK exchange factors is mediated by a nucleotide sensor (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-12
    Beschreibung: Activation of Rho guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) to the guanine triphosphate (GTP)-bound state is a critical event in their regulation of the cytoskeleton and cell signaling. Members of the DOCK family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) are important activators of Rho GTPases, but the mechanism of activation by their catalytic DHR2 domain is unknown. Through structural analysis of DOCK9-Cdc42 complexes, we identify a nucleotide sensor within the alpha10 helix of the DHR2 domain that contributes to release of guanine diphosphate (GDP) and then to discharge of the activated GTP-bound Cdc42. Magnesium exclusion, a critical factor in promoting GDP release, is mediated by a conserved valine residue within this sensor, whereas binding of GTP-Mg2+ to the nucleotide-free complex results in magnesium-inducing displacement of the sensor to stimulate discharge of Cdc42-GTP. These studies identify an unusual mechanism of GDP release and define the complete GEF catalytic cycle from GDP dissociation followed by GTP binding and discharge of the activated GTPase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, Jing -- Zhang, Ziguo -- Roe, S Mark -- Marshall, Christopher J -- Barford, David -- 10433/Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- Cancer Research UK/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 11;325(5946):1398-402. doi: 10.1126/science.1174468.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Section of Structural Biology, Institute of Cancer Research, Chester Beatty Laboratories, 237 Fulham Road, London SW3 6JB, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19745154" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A Cdc20-APC ubiquitin signaling pathway regulates presynaptic differentiation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-11
    Beschreibung: Presynaptic axonal differentiation is essential for synapse formation and the establishment of neuronal circuits. However, the mechanisms that coordinate presynaptic development in the brain are largely unknown. We found that the major mitotic E3 ubiquitin ligase Cdc20-anaphase promoting complex (Cdc20-APC) regulates presynaptic differentiation in primary postmitotic mammalian neurons and in the rat cerebellar cortex. Cdc20-APC triggered the degradation of the transcription factor NeuroD2 and thereby promoted presynaptic differentiation. The NeuroD2 target gene encoding Complexin II, which acts locally at presynaptic sites, mediated the ability of NeuroD2 to suppress presynaptic differentiation. Thus, our findings define a Cdc20-APC ubiquitin signaling pathway that governs presynaptic development, which holds important implications for neuronal connectivity and plasticity in the brain.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2846784/" 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/PMC2846784/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, Yue -- Kim, Albert H -- Yamada, Tomoko -- Wu, Bei -- Bilimoria, Parizad M -- Ikeuchi, Yoshiho -- de la Iglesia, Nuria -- Shen, Jie -- Bonni, Azad -- F32 CA124028/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- NS041021/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS051255/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS041021/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS041021-06/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS041021-07/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS041021-08/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS051255/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS051255-02/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS051255-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS051255-04/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 23;326(5952):575-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1177087.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19900895" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Spinal cord stimulation restores locomotion in animal models of Parkinson's disease (2009)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-21
    Beschreibung: Dopamine replacement therapy is useful for treating motor symptoms in the early phase of Parkinson's disease, but it is less effective in the long term. Electrical deep-brain stimulation is a valuable complement to pharmacological treatment but involves a highly invasive surgical procedure. We found that epidural electrical stimulation of the dorsal columns in the spinal cord restores locomotion in both acute pharmacologically induced dopamine-depleted mice and in chronic 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rats. The functional recovery was paralleled by a disruption of aberrant low-frequency synchronous corticostriatal oscillations, leading to the emergence of neuronal activity patterns that resemble the state normally preceding spontaneous initiation of locomotion. We propose that dorsal column stimulation might become an efficient and less invasive alternative for treatment of Parkinson's disease in the future.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2669752/" 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/PMC2669752/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fuentes, Romulo -- Petersson, Per -- Siesser, William B -- Caron, Marc G -- Nicolelis, Miguel A L -- R21 NS049534/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R21 NS049534-01A2/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R21 NS049534-02/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R33 NS049534/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R33 NS049534-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 20;323(5921):1578-82. doi: 10.1126/science.1164901.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurobiology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA. fuentes@neuro.duke.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19299613" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    McsB is a protein arginine kinase that phosphorylates and inhibits the heat-shock regulator CtsR (2009)

    Beschreibung: All living organisms face a variety of environmental stresses that cause the misfolding and aggregation of proteins. To eliminate damaged proteins, cells developed highly efficient stress response and protein quality control systems. We performed a biochemical and structural analysis of the bacterial CtsR/McsB stress response. The crystal structure of the CtsR repressor, in complex with DNA, pinpointed key residues important for high-affinity binding to the promoter regions of heat-shock genes. Moreover, biochemical characterization of McsB revealed that McsB specifically phosphorylates arginine residues in the DNA binding domain of CtsR, thereby impairing its function as a repressor of stress response genes. Identification of the CtsR/McsB arginine phospho-switch expands the repertoire of possible protein modifications involved in prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcriptional regulation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fuhrmann, Jakob -- Schmidt, Andreas -- Spiess, Silvia -- Lehner, Anita -- Turgay, Kursad -- Mechtler, Karl -- Charpentier, Emmanuelle -- Clausen, Tim -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 5;324(5932):1323-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1170088.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Dr. Bohrgasse 7, A-1030 Vienna, Austria.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19498169" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Blast disease is a devastating fungal disease of rice, one of the world's staple foods. Race-specific resistance to blast disease has usually not been durable. Here, we report the cloning of a previously unknown type of gene that confers non-race-specific resistance and its successful use in breeding. Pi21 encodes a proline-rich protein that includes a putative heavy metal-binding domain and putative protein-protein interaction motifs. Wild-type Pi21 appears to slow the plant's defense responses, which may support optimization of defense mechanisms. Deletions in its proline-rich motif inhibit this slowing. Pi21 is separable from a closely linked gene conferring poor flavor. The resistant pi21 allele, which is found in some strains of japonica rice, could improve blast resistance of rice worldwide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fukuoka, Shuichi -- Saka, Norikuni -- Koga, Hironori -- Ono, Kazuko -- Shimizu, Takehiko -- Ebana, Kaworu -- Hayashi, Nagao -- Takahashi, Akira -- Hirochika, Hirohiko -- Okuno, Kazutoshi -- Yano, Masahiro -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 21;325(5943):998-1001. doi: 10.1126/science.1175550.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉QTL Genomics Research Center, National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences, Kannondai 2-1-2, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8602, Japan. fukusan@affrc.go.jp〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19696351" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural basis of immune evasion at the site of CD4 attachment on HIV-1 gp120 (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: The site on HIV-1 gp120 that binds to the CD4 receptor is vulnerable to antibodies. However, most antibodies that interact with this site cannot neutralize HIV-1. To understand the basis of this resistance, we determined co-crystal structures for two poorly neutralizing, CD4-binding site (CD4BS) antibodies, F105 and b13, in complexes with gp120. Both antibodies exhibited approach angles to gp120 similar to those of CD4 and a rare, broadly neutralizing CD4BS antibody, b12. Slight differences in recognition, however, resulted in substantial differences in F105- and b13-bound conformations relative to b12-bound gp120. Modeling and binding experiments revealed these conformations to be poorly compatible with the viral spike. This incompatibility, the consequence of slight differences in CD4BS recognition, renders HIV-1 resistant to all but the most accurately targeted antibodies.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2862588/" 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/PMC2862588/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chen, Lei -- Kwon, Young Do -- Zhou, Tongqing -- Wu, Xueling -- O'Dell, Sijy -- Cavacini, Lisa -- Hessell, Ann J -- Pancera, Marie -- Tang, Min -- Xu, Ling -- Yang, Zhi-Yong -- Zhang, Mei-Yun -- Arthos, James -- Burton, Dennis R -- Dimitrov, Dimiter S -- Nabel, Gary J -- Posner, Marshall R -- Sodroski, Joseph -- Wyatt, Richard -- Mascola, John R -- Kwong, Peter D -- Z99 AI999999/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 20;326(5956):1123-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1175868.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vaccine Research Center, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965434" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Synaptic integration in tuft dendrites of layer 5 pyramidal neurons: a new unifying principle (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-08
    Beschreibung: Tuft dendrites are the main target for feedback inputs innervating neocortical layer 5 pyramidal neurons, but their properties remain obscure. We report the existence of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) spikes in the fine distal tuft dendrites that otherwise did not support the initiation of calcium spikes. Both direct measurements and computer simulations showed that NMDA spikes are the dominant mechanism by which distal synaptic input leads to firing of the neuron and provide the substrate for complex parallel processing of top-down input arriving at the tuft. These data lead to a new unifying view of integration in pyramidal neurons in which all fine dendrites, basal and tuft, integrate inputs locally through the recruitment of NMDA receptor channels relative to the fixed apical calcium and axosomatic sodium integration points.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Larkum, Matthew E -- Nevian, Thomas -- Sandler, Maya -- Polsky, Alon -- Schiller, Jackie -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 7;325(5941):756-60. doi: 10.1126/science.1171958.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, University of Berne, Buhlplatz 5, 3012 Berne, Switzerland. matthew.larkum@gmail.com〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19661433" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The dynamic control of kiss-and-run and vesicular reuse probed with single nanoparticles (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-02-14
    Beschreibung: Vesicular secretion of neurotransmitter is essential for neuronal communication. Kiss-and-run is a mode of membrane fusion and retrieval without the full collapse of the vesicle into the plasma membrane and de novo regeneration. The importance of kiss-and-run during efficient neurotransmission has remained in doubt. We developed an approach for loading individual synaptic vesicles with single quantum dots. Their size and pH-dependent photoluminescence change allowed us to distinguish kiss-and-run from full-collapse fusion and to track single vesicles through multiple rounds of kiss-and-run and reuse, without perturbing vesicle cycling. Kiss-and-run dominated at the beginning of stimulus trains, reflecting the preference of vesicles with high release probability. Its incidence was increased by rapid firing, a response appropriate to shape the kinetics of neurotransmission during a wide range of firing patterns.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2696197/" 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/PMC2696197/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhang, Qi -- Li, Yulong -- Tsien, Richard W -- K99 DA025143/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- K99 DA025143-01A1/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064070/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064070-08/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 13;323(5920):1448-53. doi: 10.1126/science.1167373.

    A functional genomics approach reveals CHE as a component of the Arabidopsis circadian clock (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-17
    Beschreibung: Transcriptional feedback loops constitute the molecular circuitry of the plant circadian clock. In Arabidopsis, a core loop is established between CCA1 and TOC1. Although CCA1 directly represses TOC1, the TOC1 protein has no DNA binding domains, which suggests that it cannot directly regulate CCA1. We established a functional genomic strategy that led to the identification of CHE, a TCP transcription factor that binds specifically to the CCA1 promoter. CHE is a clock component partially redundant with LHY in the repression of CCA1. The expression of CHE is regulated by CCA1, thus adding a CCA1/CHE feedback loop to the Arabidopsis circadian network. Because CHE and TOC1 interact, and CHE binds to the CCA1 promoter, a molecular linkage between TOC1 and CCA1 gene regulation is established.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4259050/" 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/PMC4259050/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pruneda-Paz, Jose L -- Breton, Ghislain -- Para, Alessia -- Kay, Steve A -- GM56006/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM67837/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM056006/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM067837/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 13;323(5920):1481-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1167206.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Section of Cell and Developmental Biology, Division of Biological Sciences, 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/19286557" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Rhes, a striatal specific protein, mediates mutant-huntingtin cytotoxicity (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-06-06
    Beschreibung: Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by a polyglutamine repeat in the protein huntingtin (Htt) with mutant Htt (mHtt) expressed throughout the body and similarly in all brain regions. Yet, HD neuropathology is largely restricted to the corpus striatum. We report that the small guanine nucleotide-binding protein Rhes, which is localized very selectively to the striatum, binds physiologically to mHtt. Using cultured cells, we found Rhes induces sumoylation of mHtt, which leads to cytotoxicity. Thus, Rhes-mHtt interactions can account for the localized neuropathology of HD.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2745286/" 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/PMC2745286/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Subramaniam, Srinivasa -- Sixt, Katherine M -- Barrow, Roxanne -- Snyder, Solomon H -- DA00074/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- MH18501/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R37 MH018501/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R37 MH018501-40/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jun 5;324(5932):1327-30. doi: 10.1126/science.1172871.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Solomon H.

    A simple cipher governs DNA recognition by TAL effectors (2009)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-26
    Beschreibung: TAL effectors of plant pathogenic bacteria in the genus Xanthomonas bind host DNA and activate genes that contribute to disease or turn on defense. Target specificity depends on an effector-variable number of typically 34 amino acid repeats, but the mechanism of recognition is not understood. We show that a repeat-variable pair of residues specifies the nucleotides in the target site, one pair to one nucleotide, with no apparent context dependence. Our finding represents a previously unknown mechanism for protein-DNA recognition that explains TAL effector specificity, enables target site prediction, and opens prospects for use of TAL effectors in research and biotechnology.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moscou, Matthew J -- Bogdanove, Adam J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 11;326(5959):1501. doi: 10.1126/science.1178817.

    An acidic matrix protein, Pif, is a key macromolecule for nacre formation (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-15
    Beschreibung: The mollusk shell is a hard tissue consisting of calcium carbonate crystals and an organic matrix. The nacre of the shell is characterized by a stacked compartment structure with a uniformly oriented c axis of aragonite crystals in each compartment. Using a calcium carbonate-binding assay, we identified an acidic matrix protein, Pif, in the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata that specifically binds to aragonite crystals. The Pif complementary DNA (cDNA) encoded a precursor protein, which was posttranslationally cleaved to produce Pif 97 and Pif 80. The results from immunolocalization, a knockdown experiment that used RNA interference, and in vitro calcium carbonate crystallization studies strongly indicate that Pif regulates nacre formation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Suzuki, Michio -- Saruwatari, Kazuko -- Kogure, Toshihiro -- Yamamoto, Yuya -- Nishimura, Tatsuya -- Kato, Takashi -- Nagasawa, Hiromichi -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 11;325(5946):1388-90. doi: 10.1126/science.1173793.

    Beschreibung: Despite comprising much of the eukaryotic genome, few transposons are active, and they usually confer no benefit to the host. Through an exaggerated process of genome rearrangement, Oxytricha trifallax destroys 95% of its germline genome during development. This includes the elimination of all transposon DNA. We show that germline-limited transposase genes play key roles in this process of genome-wide DNA excision, which suggests that transposases function in large eukaryotic genomes containing thousands of active transposons. We show that transposase gene expression occurs during germline-soma differentiation and that silencing of transposase by RNA interference leads to abnormal DNA rearrangement in the offspring. This study suggests a new important role in Oxytricha for this large portion of genomic DNA that was previously thought of as junk.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3491810/" 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/PMC3491810/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nowacki, Mariusz -- Higgins, Brian P -- Maquilan, Genevieve M -- Swart, Estienne C -- Doak, Thomas G -- Landweber, Laura F -- GM59708/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM059708/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 15;324(5929):935-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1170023.

    Genetic code supports targeted insertion of two amino acids by one codon (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-01-10
    Beschreibung: Strict one-to-one correspondence between codons and amino acids is thought to be an essential feature of the genetic code. However, we report that one codon can code for two different amino acids with the choice of the inserted amino acid determined by a specific 3' untranslated region structure and location of the dual-function codon within the messenger RNA (mRNA). We found that the codon UGA specifies insertion of selenocysteine and cysteine in the ciliate Euplotes crassus, that the dual use of this codon can occur even within the same gene, and that the structural arrangements of Euplotes mRNA preserve location-dependent dual function of UGA when expressed in mammalian cells. Thus, the genetic code supports the use of one codon to code for multiple amino acids.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3088105/" 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/PMC3088105/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Turanov, Anton A -- Lobanov, Alexey V -- Fomenko, Dmitri E -- Morrison, Hilary G -- Sogin, Mitchell L -- Klobutcher, Lawrence A -- Hatfield, Dolph L -- Gladyshev, Vadim N -- AI058054/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM061603/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM065204/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM061603/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM061603-04S2/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- ZIA BC010767-03/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jan 9;323(5911):259-61. doi: 10.1126/science.1164748.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Redox Biology Center, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, NE 68588, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19131629" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The C-Ala domain brings together editing and aminoacylation functions on one tRNA (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-08-08
    Beschreibung: Protein synthesis involves the accurate attachment of amino acids to their matching transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. Mistranslating the amino acids serine or glycine for alanine is prevented by the function of independent but collaborative aminoacylation and editing domains of alanyl-tRNA synthetases (AlaRSs). We show that the C-Ala domain plays a key role in AlaRS function. The C-Ala domain is universally tethered to the editing domain both in AlaRS and in many homologous free-standing editing proteins. Crystal structure and functional analyses showed that C-Ala forms an ancient single-stranded nucleic acid binding motif that promotes cooperative binding of both aminoacylation and editing domains to tRNA(Ala). In addition, C-Ala may have played an essential role in the evolution of AlaRSs by coupling aminoacylation to editing to prevent mistranslation.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4559334/" 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/PMC4559334/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Guo, Min -- Chong, Yeeting E -- Beebe, Kirk -- Shapiro, Ryan -- Yang, Xiang-Lei -- Schimmel, Paul -- GM 15539/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM015539/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 7;325(5941):744-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1174343.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology and the Department of Molecular Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, BCC-379, 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/19661429" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Macroevolution of complex retroviruses (2009)

    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-19
    Beschreibung: Retroviruses can leave a "fossil record" in their hosts' genomes in the form of endogenous retroviruses. Foamy viruses, complex retroviruses that infect mammals, have been notably absent from this record. We have found an endogenous foamy virus within the genomes of sloths and show that foamy viruses were infecting mammals more than 100 million years ago and codiverged with their hosts across an entire geological era. Our analysis highlights the role of evolutionary constraint in maintaining viral genome structure and indicates that accessory genes and mammalian mechanisms of innate immunity are the products of macroevolutionary conflict played out over a geological time scale.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Katzourakis, Aris -- Gifford, Robert J -- Tristem, Michael -- Gilbert, M Thomas P -- Pybus, Oliver G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 18;325(5947):1512. doi: 10.1126/science.1174149.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Zoology Department, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3PS, UK. aris.katzourakis@zoo.ox.ac.uk〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19762636" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of a nucleocapsid-like nucleoprotein-RNA complex of respiratory syncytial virus (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an important human pathogen, yet neither a vaccine nor effective therapies are available to treat infection. To help elucidate the replication mechanism of this RNA virus, we determined the three-dimensional (3D) crystal structure at 3.3 A resolution of a decameric, annular ribonucleoprotein complex of the RSV nucleoprotein (N) bound to RNA. This complex mimics one turn of the viral helical nucleocapsid complex, which serves as template for viral RNA synthesis. The RNA wraps around the protein ring, with seven nucleotides contacting each N subunit, alternating rows of four and three stacked bases that are exposed and buried within a protein groove, respectively. Combined with electron microscopy data, this structure provides a detailed model for the RSV nucleocapsid, in which the bases are accessible for readout by the viral polymerase. Furthermore, the nucleoprotein structure highlights possible key sites for drug targeting.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tawar, Rajiv G -- Duquerroy, Stephane -- Vonrhein, Clemens -- Varela, Paloma F -- Damier-Piolle, Laurence -- Castagne, Nathalie -- MacLellan, Kirsty -- Bedouelle, Hugues -- Bricogne, Gerard -- Bhella, David -- Eleouet, Jean-Francois -- Rey, Felix A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Nov 27;326(5957):1279-83. doi: 10.1126/science.1177634.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut Pasteur, Unite de Virologie Structurale, Departement de Virologie and CNRS Unite de Recherche Associee (URA) 3015, 25 Rue du Dr Roux, 75724 Paris Cedex 15, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965480" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of layer 6 of V2 visual cortex in object-recognition memory (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-04
    Beschreibung: Cellular responses in the V2 secondary visual cortex to simple as well as complex visual stimuli have been well studied. However, the role of area V2 in visual memory remains unexplored. We found that layer 6 neurons of V2 are crucial for the processing of object-recognition memory (ORM). Using the protein regulator of G protein signaling-14 (RGS-14) as a tool, we found that the expression of this protein into layer 6 neurons of rat-brain area V2 promoted the conversion of a normal short-term ORM that normally lasts for 45 minutes into long-term memory detectable even after many months. Furthermore, elimination of the same-layer neurons by means of injection of a selective cytotoxin resulted in the complete loss of normal as well as protein-mediated enhanced ORM.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lopez-Aranda, Manuel F -- Lopez-Tellez, Juan F -- Navarro-Lobato, Irene -- Masmudi-Martin, Mariam -- Gutierrez, Antonia -- Khan, Zafar U -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 3;325(5936):87-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1170869.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Neurobiology, Centro de Investigaciones Medico-Sanitarias, University of Malaga, Campus Teatinos s/n, 29071 Malaga, Spain. zkhan@uma.es〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19574389" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dissecting the genetic basis of resistance to malaria parasites in Anopheles gambiae (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-10-03
    Beschreibung: The ability of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes to transmit Plasmodium parasites is highly variable between individuals. However, the genetic basis of this variability has remained unknown. We combined genome-wide mapping and reciprocal allele-specific RNA interference (rasRNAi) to identify the genomic locus that confers resistance to malaria parasites and demonstrated that polymorphisms in a single gene encoding the antiparasitic thioester-containing protein 1 (TEP1) explain a substantial part of the variability in parasite killing. The link between TEP1 alleles and resistance to malaria may offer new tools for controlling malaria transmission. The successful application of rasRNAi in Anopheles suggests that it could also be applied to other organisms where RNAi is feasible to dissect complex phenotypes to the level of individual quantitative trait alleles.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2959166/" 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/PMC2959166/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blandin, Stephanie A -- Wang-Sattler, Rui -- Lamacchia, Marina -- Gagneur, Julien -- Lycett, Gareth -- Ning, Ye -- Levashina, Elena A -- Steinmetz, Lars M -- R01 GM068717/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM068717-08/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 2;326(5949):147-50. doi: 10.1126/science.1175241.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), Meyerhofstrasse 1, 69117 Heidelberg, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19797663" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Translocator protein (18 kD) as target for anxiolytics without benzodiazepine-like side effects (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-06-23
    Beschreibung: Most antianxiety drugs (anxiolytics) work by modulating neurotransmitters in the brain. Benzodiazepines are fast and effective anxiolytic drugs; however, their long-term use is limited by the development of tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. Ligands of the translocator protein [18 kilodaltons (kD)] may promote the synthesis of endogenous neurosteroids, which also exert anxiolytic effects in animal models. Here, we found that the translocator protein (18 kD) ligand XBD173 enhanced gamma-aminobutyric acid-mediated neurotransmission and counteracted induced panic attacks in rodents in the absence of sedation and tolerance development. XBD173 also exerted antipanic activity in humans and, in contrast to benzodiazepines, did not cause sedation or withdrawal symptoms. Thus, translocator protein (18 kD) ligands are promising candidates for fast-acting anxiolytic drugs with less severe side effects than benzodiazepines.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rupprecht, Rainer -- Rammes, Gerhard -- Eser, Daniela -- Baghai, Thomas C -- Schule, Cornelius -- Nothdurfter, Caroline -- Troxler, Thomas -- Gentsch, Conrad -- Kalkman, Hans O -- Chaperon, Frederique -- Uzunov, Veska -- McAllister, Kevin H -- Bertaina-Anglade, Valerie -- La Rochelle, Christophe Drieu -- Tuerck, Dietrich -- Floesser, Annette -- Kiese, Beate -- Schumacher, Michael -- Landgraf, Rainer -- Holsboer, Florian -- Kucher, Klaus -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 24;325(5939):490-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1175055.

    Structural mechanism of abscisic acid binding and signaling by dimeric PYR1 (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-26
    Beschreibung: The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) acts in seed dormancy, plant development, drought tolerance, and adaptive responses to environmental stresses. Structural mechanisms mediating ABA receptor recognition and signaling remain unknown but are essential for understanding and manipulating abiotic stress resistance. Here, we report structures of pyrabactin resistance 1 (PYR1), a prototypical PYR/PYR1-like (PYL)/regulatory component of ABA receptor (RCAR) protein that functions in early ABA signaling. The crystallographic structure reveals an alpha/beta helix-grip fold and homodimeric assembly, verified in vivo by coimmunoprecipitation. ABA binding within a large internal cavity switches structural motifs distinguishing ABA-free "open-lid" from ABA-bound "closed-lid" conformations. Small-angle x-ray scattering suggests that ABA signals by converting PYR1 to a more compact, symmetric closed-lid dimer. Site-directed PYR1 mutants designed to disrupt hormone binding lose ABA-triggered interactions with type 2C protein phosphatase partners in planta.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2835493/" 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/PMC2835493/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nishimura, Noriyuki -- Hitomi, Kenichi -- Arvai, Andrew S -- Rambo, Robert P -- Hitomi, Chiharu -- Cutler, Sean R -- Schroeder, Julian I -- Getzoff, Elizabeth D -- ES010337/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- GM060396/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM37684/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P42 ES010337/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- P42 ES010337-10S20008/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM060396/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM060396-08/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 4;326(5958):1373-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1181829.

    Breaking the code of DNA binding specificity of TAL-type III effectors (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-11-26
    Beschreibung: The pathogenicity of many bacteria depends on the injection of effector proteins via type III secretion into eukaryotic cells in order to manipulate cellular processes. TAL (transcription activator-like) effectors from plant pathogenic Xanthomonas are important virulence factors that act as transcriptional activators in the plant cell nucleus, where they directly bind to DNA via a central domain of tandem repeats. Here, we show how target DNA specificity of TAL effectors is encoded. Two hypervariable amino acid residues in each repeat recognize one base pair in the target DNA. Recognition sequences of TAL effectors were predicted and experimentally confirmed. The modular protein architecture enabled the construction of artificial effectors with new specificities. Our study describes the functionality of a distinct type of DNA binding domain and allows the design of DNA binding domains for biotechnology.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boch, Jens -- Scholze, Heidi -- Schornack, Sebastian -- Landgraf, Angelika -- Hahn, Simone -- Kay, Sabine -- Lahaye, Thomas -- Nickstadt, Anja -- Bonas, Ulla -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 11;326(5959):1509-12. doi: 10.1126/science.1178811.

    Optical deconstruction of parkinsonian neural circuitry (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-21
    Beschreibung: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a therapeutic option for intractable neurological and psychiatric disorders, including Parkinson's disease and major depression. Because of the heterogeneity of brain tissues where electrodes are placed, it has been challenging to elucidate the relevant target cell types or underlying mechanisms of DBS. We used optogenetics and solid-state optics to systematically drive or inhibit an array of distinct circuit elements in freely moving parkinsonian rodents and found that therapeutic effects within the subthalamic nucleus can be accounted for by direct selective stimulation of afferent axons projecting to this region. In addition to providing insight into DBS mechanisms, these results demonstrate an optical approach for dissection of disease circuitry and define the technological toolbox needed for systematic deconstruction of disease circuits by selectively controlling individual components.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gradinaru, Viviana -- Mogri, Murtaza -- Thompson, Kimberly R -- Henderson, Jaimie M -- Deisseroth, Karl -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Apr 17;324(5925):354-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1167093.

    Mutations in FUS, an RNA processing protein, cause familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 6 (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-03
    Beschreibung: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that is familial in 10% of cases. We have identified a missense mutation in the gene encoding fused in sarcoma (FUS) in a British kindred, linked to ALS6. In a survey of 197 familial ALS index cases, we identified two further missense mutations in eight families. Postmortem analysis of three cases with FUS mutations showed FUS-immunoreactive cytoplasmic inclusions and predominantly lower motor neuron degeneration. Cellular expression studies revealed aberrant localization of mutant FUS protein. FUS is involved in the regulation of transcription and RNA splicing and transport, and it has functional homology to another ALS gene, TARDBP, which suggests that a common mechanism may underlie motor neuron degeneration.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4516382/" 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/PMC4516382/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vance, Caroline -- Rogelj, Boris -- Hortobagyi, Tibor -- De Vos, Kurt J -- Nishimura, Agnes Lumi -- Sreedharan, Jemeen -- Hu, Xun -- Smith, Bradley -- Ruddy, Deborah -- Wright, Paul -- Ganesalingam, Jeban -- Williams, Kelly L -- Tripathi, Vineeta -- Al-Saraj, Safa -- Al-Chalabi, Ammar -- Leigh, P Nigel -- Blair, Ian P -- Nicholson, Garth -- de Belleroche, Jackie -- Gallo, Jean-Marc -- Miller, Christopher C -- Shaw, Christopher E -- 078662/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- G0300329/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0500289/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0501573/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0600676/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0600974/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- G0900688/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_G1000733/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Feb 27;323(5918):1208-11. doi: 10.1126/science.1165942.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Clinical Neuroscience, King's College London, Medical Research Council (MRC) Centre for Neurodegeneration Research, Institute of Psychiatry, London SE5 8AF, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19251628" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Functional proteomics identify cornichon proteins as auxiliary subunits of AMPA receptors (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-03-07
    Beschreibung: Glutamate receptors of the AMPA-subtype (AMPARs), together with the transmembrane AMPAR regulatory proteins (TARPs), mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the mammalian brain. Here, we show by proteomic analysis that the majority of AMPARs in the rat brain are coassembled with two members of the cornichon family of transmembrane proteins, rather than with the TARPs. Coassembly with cornichon homologs 2 and 3 affects AMPARs in two ways: Cornichons increase surface expression of AMPARs, and they alter channel gating by markedly slowing deactivation and desensitization kinetics. These results demonstrate that cornichons are intrinsic auxiliary subunits of native AMPARs and provide previously unknown molecular determinants for glutamatergic neurotransmission in the central nervous system.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schwenk, Jochen -- Harmel, Nadine -- Zolles, Gerd -- Bildl, Wolfgang -- Kulik, Akos -- Heimrich, Bernd -- Chisaka, Osamu -- Jonas, Peter -- Schulte, Uwe -- Fakler, Bernd -- Klocker, Nikolaj -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Mar 6;323(5919):1313-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1167852.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Physiology II, University of Freiburg, Engesserstrasse 4, 79108 Freiburg, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19265014" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    GABAergic hub neurons orchestrate synchrony in developing hippocampal networks (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-12-08
    Beschreibung: Brain function operates through the coordinated activation of neuronal assemblies. Graph theory predicts that scale-free topologies, which include "hubs" (superconnected nodes), are an effective design to orchestrate synchronization. Whether hubs are present in neuronal assemblies and coordinate network activity remains unknown. Using network dynamics imaging, online reconstruction of functional connectivity, and targeted whole-cell recordings in rats and mice, we found that developing hippocampal networks follow a scale-free topology, and we demonstrated the existence of functional hubs. Perturbation of a single hub influenced the entire network dynamics. Morphophysiological analysis revealed that hub cells are a subpopulation of gamma-aminobutyric acid-releasing (GABAergic) interneurons possessing widespread axonal arborizations. These findings establish a central role for GABAergic interneurons in shaping developing networks and help provide a conceptual framework for studying neuronal synchrony.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bonifazi, P -- Goldin, M -- Picardo, M A -- Jorquera, I -- Cattani, A -- Bianconi, G -- Represa, A -- Ben-Ari, Y -- Cossart, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Dec 4;326(5958):1419-24. doi: 10.1126/science.1175509.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut de Neurobiologie de la Mediterranee INSERM U901, Universitede la Mediterranee, Parc Scientifique de Luminy, Boite Postale 13, 13273 Marseille Cedex 9, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19965761" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Functional amyloids as natural storage of peptide hormones in pituitary secretory granules (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-06-23
    Beschreibung: Amyloids are highly organized cross-beta-sheet-rich protein or peptide aggregates that are associated with pathological conditions including Alzheimer's disease and type II diabetes. However, amyloids may also have a normal biological function, as demonstrated by fungal prions, which are involved in prion replication, and the amyloid protein Pmel17, which is involved in mammalian skin pigmentation. We found that peptide and protein hormones in secretory granules of the endocrine system are stored in an amyloid-like cross-beta-sheet-rich conformation. Thus, functional amyloids in the pituitary and other organs can contribute to normal cell and tissue physiology.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2865899/" 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/PMC2865899/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Maji, Samir K -- Perrin, Marilyn H -- Sawaya, Michael R -- Jessberger, Sebastian -- Vadodaria, Krishna -- Rissman, Robert A -- Singru, Praful S -- Nilsson, K Peter R -- Simon, Rozalyn -- Schubert, David -- Eisenberg, David -- Rivier, Jean -- Sawchenko, Paul -- Vale, Wylie -- Riek, Roland -- P01 DK026741/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK026741-29/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK026741-30/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 17;325(5938):328-32. doi: 10.1126/science.1173155.

    Chloroquine transport via the malaria parasite's chloroquine resistance transporter (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-09-26
    Beschreibung: The emergence and spread of chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites has been a disaster for world health. Resistance is conferred by mutations in the Chloroquine Resistance Transporter (PfCRT), an integral membrane protein localized to the parasite's internal digestive vacuole. These mutations result in a marked reduction in the accumulation of chloroquine (CQ) by the parasite. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is unclear. We expressed both wild-type and resistant forms of PfCRT at the surface of Xenopus laevis oocytes. The resistant form of PfCRT transported CQ, whereas the wild-type protein did not. CQ transport via the mutant PfCRT was inhibited by CQ analogs and by the resistance-reverser verapamil. Thus, CQ resistance is due to direct transport of the drug via mutant PfCRT.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Martin, Rowena E -- Marchetti, Rosa V -- Cowan, Anna I -- Howitt, Susan M -- Broer, Stefan -- Kirk, Kiaran -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Sep 25;325(5948):1680-2. doi: 10.1126/science.1175667.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Research School of Biology, Australian National University, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory 0200, Australia. rowena.martin@anu.edu.au〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19779197" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    SDH5, a gene required for flavination of succinate dehydrogenase, is mutated in paraganglioma (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2009-07-25
    Beschreibung: Mammalian mitochondria contain about 1100 proteins, nearly 300 of which are uncharacterized. Given the well-established role of mitochondrial defects in human disease, functional characterization of these proteins may shed new light on disease mechanisms. Starting with yeast as a model system, we investigated an uncharacterized but highly conserved mitochondrial protein (named here Sdh5). Both yeast and human Sdh5 interact with the catalytic subunit of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex, a component of both the electron transport chain and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Sdh5 is required for SDH-dependent respiration and for Sdh1 flavination (incorporation of the flavin adenine dinucleotide cofactor). Germline loss-of-function mutations in the human SDH5 gene, located on chromosome 11q13.1, segregate with disease in a family with hereditary paraganglioma, a neuroendocrine tumor previously linked to mutations in genes encoding SDH subunits. Thus, a mitochondrial proteomics analysis in yeast has led to the discovery of a human tumor susceptibility gene.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3881419/" 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/PMC3881419/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hao, Huai-Xiang -- Khalimonchuk, Oleh -- Schraders, Margit -- Dephoure, Noah -- Bayley, Jean-Pierre -- Kunst, Henricus -- Devilee, Peter -- Cremers, Cor W R J -- Schiffman, Joshua D -- Bentz, Brandon G -- Gygi, Steven P -- Winge, Dennis R -- Kremer, Hannie -- Rutter, Jared -- DK071962/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM087346/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 ES003817/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Aug 28;325(5944):1139-42. doi: 10.1126/science.1175689.

    Beschreibung: Fast-spiking, parvalbumin-expressing basket cells (BCs) are important for feedforward and feedback inhibition. During network activity, BCs respond with short latency and high temporal precision. It is thought that the specific properties of input synapses are responsible for rapid recruitment. However, a potential contribution of active dendritic conductances has not been addressed. We combined confocal imaging and patch-clamp techniques to obtain simultaneous somatodendritic recordings from BCs. Action potentials were initiated in the BC axon and backpropagated into the dendrites with reduced amplitude and little activity dependence. These properties were explained by a high K+ to Na+ conductance ratio in BC dendrites. Computational analysis indicated that dendritic K+ channels convey unique integration properties to BCs, leading to the rapid and temporally precise activation by excitatory inputs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hu, Hua -- Martina, Marco -- Jonas, Peter -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 1;327(5961):52-8. doi: 10.1126/science.1177876.

    Protein synthesis and neurotrophin-dependent structural plasticity of single dendritic spines (2008)

    Beschreibung: Long-term potentiation (LTP) at glutamatergic synapses is considered to underlie learning and memory and is associated with the enlargement of dendritic spines. Because the consolidation of memory and LTP require protein synthesis, it is important to clarify how protein synthesis affects spine enlargement. In rat brain slices, the repetitive pairing of postsynaptic spikes and two-photon uncaging of glutamate at single spines (a spike-timing protocol) produced both immediate and gradual phases of spine enlargement in CA1 pyramidal neurons. The gradual enlargement was strongly dependent on protein synthesis and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) action, often associated with spine twitching, and was induced specifically at the spines that were immediately enlarged by the synaptic stimulation. Thus, this spike-timing protocol is an efficient trigger for BDNF secretion and induces protein synthesis-dependent long-term enlargement at the level of single spines.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4218863/" 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/PMC4218863/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tanaka, Jun-Ichi -- Horiike, Yoshihiro -- Matsuzaki, Masanori -- Miyazaki, Takashi -- Ellis-Davies, Graham C R -- Kasai, Haruo -- R01 GM053395/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM053395-12/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2008 Mar 21;319(5870):1683-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1152864.
