    AP1/jun function is differentially induced in promotion-sensitive and resistant JB6 cells (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-05-05
    Beschreibung: Tumor promoters may bring about events that lead to neoplastic transformation by inducing specific promotion-relevant effector genes. Functional activation of the transacting transcription factor AP-1 by the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) may play an essential role in this process. Clonal genetic variants of mouse epidermal JB6 cells that are genetically susceptible (P+) or resistant (P-) to promotion of transformation by TPA were transfected with 3XTRE-CAT, a construct that has AP-1 cis-enhancer sequences attached to a reporter gene encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT). Transfected JB6 P+, but not P- variants, showed TPA-inducible CAT synthesis. Epidermal growth factor, another transformation promoter in JB6 cells, also caused P+ specific induction of CAT gene expression. These results demonstrate an association between induced AP-1 function and sensitivity to promotion of neoplastic transformation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bernstein, L R -- Colburn, N H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 5;244(4904):566-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Johns Hopkins University, Department of Biology, Baltimore, MD 21218.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2541502" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Effect of antisense c-raf-1 on tumorigenicity and radiation sensitivity of a human squamous carcinoma (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-10
    Beschreibung: Antisense RNA-mediated inhibition of gene expression was used to investigate the biological function of the c-raf-1 gene in a radiation-resistant human squamous carcinoma cell line, SQ-20B. S1 nuclease protection assays revealed that transfection of full-length raf complementary DNA in the antisense orientation (AS) leads to a specific reduction (greater than tenfold) of steady-state levels of the endogenous c-raf-1 sense (S) transcript in SQ-20B cells. In nude mice, the malignant potential of SQ-20B cells transfected with raf (S) was significantly increased relative to that of SQ-20B cells transfected with raf (AS). SQ-20B cells containing transfected raf (S) maintained a radiation-resistant phenotype as compared to those cells harboring the AS version, which appeared to have enhanced radiation sensitivity. These data indicate that the reduced expression of endogenous c-raf-1 is sufficient to modulate the tumorigenicity and the radiation-resistant phenotype of SQ-20B cells, thus implicating c-raf-1 in a pathway important to the genesis of this type of cancer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kasid, U -- Pfeifer, A -- Brennan, T -- Beckett, M -- Weichselbaum, R R -- Dritschilo, A -- Mark, G E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 10;243(4896):1354-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Radiation Medicine, Vincent T.

    Potassium channels in cardiac cells activated by arachidonic acid and phospholipids (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-09
    Beschreibung: Two types of potassium-selective channels activated by intracellular arachidonic acid or phosphatidylcholine have been found in neonatal rat atrial cells. In inside-out patches, arachidonic acid and phosphatidylcholine each opened outwardly rectifying potassium-selective channels with conductances of 160 picosiemens (IK.AA) and 68 picosiemens (IK.PC), respectively. These potassium channels were not sensitive to internally applied adenosine triphosphate (ATP), magnesium, or calcium. Lowering the intracellular pH from 7.2 to 6.8 or 6.4 reversibly increased IK.AA channel activity three- or tenfold, respectively. A number of fatty acid derivatives were tested for their ability to activate IK.AA. These potassium-selective channels may help explain the increase in potassium conductance observed in ischemic cells and raise the possibility that fatty acid derivatives act as second messengers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kim, D -- Clapham, D E -- HL 34873/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 9;244(4909):1174-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Mayo Foundation, Rochester, MN 55905.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2727703" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Neutrophil Mac-1 and MEL-14 adhesion proteins inversely regulated by chemotactic factors (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-09-15
    Beschreibung: The neutrophil Mac-1 and gp100MEL-14 adhesion proteins are involved in neutrophil extravasation during inflammation. Both the expression and activity of Mac-1 are greatly increased after neutrophil activation. In contrast, neutrophils shed gp100MEL-14 from the cell surface within 4 minutes after activation with chemotactic factors or phorbol esters, releasing a 96-kilodalton fragment of the antigen into the supernatant. Immunohistology showed that gp100MEL-14 was downregulated on neutrophils that had extravasated into inflamed tissue. The gp100MEL-14 adhesion protein may participate in the binding of unactivated neutrophils to the endothelium; rapid shedding of gp100MEL-14 may prevent extravasation into and damage of normal tissues by activated neutrophils.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kishimoto, T K -- Jutila, M A -- Berg, E L -- Butcher, E C -- AI 19957/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Sep 15;245(4923):1238-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Stanford University, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2551036" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Enhanced activity and altered specificity of phospholipase A2 by deletion of a surface loop (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-04-07
    Beschreibung: Protein engineering and x-ray crystallography have been used to study the role of a surface loop that is present in pancreatic phospholipases but is absent in snake venom phospholipases. Removal of residues 62 to 66 from porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 does not change the binding constant for micelles significantly, but it improves catalytic activity up to 16 times on micellar (zwitterionic) lecithin substrates. In contrast, the decrease in activity on negatively charged substrates is greater than fourfold. A crystallographic study of the mutant enzyme shows that the region of the deletion has a well-defined structure that differs from the structure of the wild-type enzyme. No structural changes in the active site of the enzyme were detected.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kuipers, O P -- Thunnissen, M M -- de Geus, P -- Dijkstra, B W -- Drenth, J -- Verheij, H M -- de Haas, G H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Apr 7;244(4900):82-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2704992" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Triggering of allostery in an enzyme by a point mutation: ornithine transcarbamoylase (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-04
    Beschreibung: The origin of allostery is an unanswered question in the evolution of complex regulatory proteins. Anabolic ornithine transcarbamoylase, a trimer of identical subunits, is not an allosteric enzyme per se. However, when the active-site residue arginine-106 of the Escherichia coli enzyme is replaced with a glycine through site-directed mutagenesis, the resultant mutant enzyme manifests substrate cooperativity that is absent in the wild-type enzyme. Both homotropic and heterotropic interactions occur in the mutant enzyme. The initial velocity saturation curves of the substrates, carbamoyl phosphate and L-ornithine, conform to the Hill equation. The observed cooperativity depends on substrate but not enzyme concentration. The finding underscores the possibility that a single mutation of the enzyme in the cell could turn transcarbamoylation into a regulatory junction in the biosynthesis of L-arginine and urea.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kuo, L C -- Zambidis, I -- Caron, C -- DK01721/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK38089/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 4;245(4917):522-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Metcalf Center for Science and Engineering, Boston University, MA 02215.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2667139" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The MHC-binding and gp120-binding functions of CD4 are separable (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-18
    Beschreibung: CD4 is a cell surface glycoprotein that is thought to interact with nonpolymorphic determinants of class II major histocompatibility (MHC) molecules. CD4 is also the receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), binding with high affinity to the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, gp120. Homolog-scanning mutagenesis was used to identify CD4 regions that are important in class II MHC binding and to determine whether the gp120 and class II MHC binding sites of CD4 are related. Class II MHC binding was abolished by mutations in each of the first three immunoglobulin-like domains of CD4. The gp120 binding could be abolished without affecting class II MHC binding and vice versa, although at least one mutation examined reduced both functions significantly. These findings indicate that, while there may be overlap between the gp120 and class II MHC binding sites of CD4, these sites are distinct and can be separated. Thus it should be possible to design CD4 analogs that can block HIV infectivity but intrinsically lack the ability to affect the normal immune response by binding to class II MHC molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lamarre, D -- Ashkenazi, A -- Fleury, S -- Smith, D H -- Sekaly, R P -- Capon, D J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 18;245(4919):743-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratoire d'Immunologie, Institut de Recherches Cliniques de Montreal, Quebec, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2549633" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The DNA binding domain of the rat liver nuclear protein C/EBP is bipartite (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-31
    Beschreibung: C/EBP is a rat liver nuclear protein capable of sequence-specific interaction with DNA. The DNA sequences to which C/EBP binds in vitro have been implicated in the control of messenger RNA synthesis. It has therefore been predicted that C/EBP will play a role in regulating gene expression in mammalian cells. The region of the C/EBP polypeptide required for direct interaction with DNA has been identified and shown to bear amino acid sequence relatedness with the product of the myc, fos, and jun proto-oncogenes. The arrangement of these related amino acid sequences led to the prediction of a new structural motif, termed the "leucine zipper," that plays a role in facilitating sequence-specific interaction between protein and DNA. Experimental tests now provide support for the leucine zipper hypothesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Landschulz, W H -- Johnson, P F -- McKnight, S L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 31;243(4899):1681-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Carnegie Institution of Washington, Department of Embryology, Baltimore, MD 21210.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2494700" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Defining the inside and outside of a catalytic RNA molecule (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-07-21
    Beschreibung: Ribozymes are RNA molecules that catalyze biochemical reactions. Fe(II)-EDTA, a solvent-based reagent which cleaves both double- and single-stranded RNA, was used to investigate the structure of the Tetrahymena ribozyme. Regions of cleavage alternate with regions of substantial protection along the entire RNA molecule. In particular, most of the catalytic core shows greatly reduced cleavage. These data constitute experimental evidence that an RNA enzyme, like a protein enzyme, has an interior and an exterior. Determination of positions where the phosphodiester backbone of the RNA is on the inside or on the outside of the molecule provides major constraints for modeling the three-dimensional structure of the Tetrahymena ribozyme. This approach should be generally informative for structured RNA molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Latham, J A -- Cech, T R -- GM 11227-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 21;245(4915):276-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder 80309-0215.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2501870" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) participates in many processes including early developmental events, angiogenesis, wound healing, and maintenance of neuronal cell viability. A 130-kilodalton protein was isolated on the basis of its ability to specifically bind to bFGF. A complementary DNA clone was isolated with an oligonucleotide probe corresponding to determined amino acid sequences of tryptic peptide fragments of the purified protein. The putative bFGF receptor encoded by this complementary DNA is a transmembrane protein that contains three extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains, an unusual acidic region, and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain. These domains are arranged in a pattern that is different from that of any growth factor receptor described.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, P L -- Johnson, D E -- Cousens, L S -- Fried, V A -- Williams, L T -- CA 21765/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL32898/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 7;245(4913):57-60.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco 94143.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2544996" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Three-dimensional solution structure of a single zinc finger DNA-binding domain (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-11
    Beschreibung: The three-dimensional solution structure of a zinc finger nucleic acid binding motif has been determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Spectra of a synthetic peptide corresponding to a single zinc finger from the Xenopus protein Xfin yielded distance and dihedral angle constraints that were used to generate structures from distance geometry and restrained molecular dynamics calculations. The zinc finger is an independently folded domain with a compact globular structure in which the zinc atom is bound by two cysteine and two histidine ligands. The polypeptide backbone fold consists of a well-defined helix, starting as alpha and ending as 3(10) helix, packed against two beta strands that are arranged in a hairpin structure. A high density of basic and polar amino acid side chains on the exposed face of the helix are probably involved in DNA binding.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, M S -- Gippert, G P -- Soman, K V -- Case, D A -- Wright, P E -- GM 36643/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38794/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 11;245(4918):635-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Research Institute of Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2503871" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Assembly of the native heterodimer of Rana esculenta tropomyosin by chain exchange (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-11-17
    Beschreibung: Rana esculenta tropomyosin assembles in vivo into a coiled-coil alpha helix from two different subunits, alpha and beta, which are present in about equal concentrations. Although the native composition is alpha beta, a mixture of equal amounts of alpha alpha and beta beta is produced by refolding dissociated alpha and beta at low temperature in vitro. Refolding kinetics showed that alpha alpha formed first and was relatively stable with regard to chain exchange below approximately 20 degrees C. Equilibration of the homodimer mixture at 30 degrees and 34 degrees C for long times, however, resulted in the formation of the native alpha beta molecule by chain exchange. Biosynthesis of alpha beta from separate alpha and beta genes is, therefore, favored thermodynamically over the formation of homodimers, and biological factors need not be invoked to explain the preferred native alpha beta composition.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lehrer, S S -- Qian, Y D -- Hvidt, S -- HL22461/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 17;246(4932):926-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Muscle Research, Boston Biomedical Research Institute, MA 02114.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814515" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Correct folding of circularly permuted variants of a beta alpha barrel enzyme in vivo (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-01-13
    Beschreibung: An important question in protein folding is whether the natural amino and carboxyl termini and the given order of secondary structure segments are critical to the stability and to the folding pathway of proteins. Here it is shown that two circularly permuted versions of the gene of a single-domain beta alpha barrel enzyme can be expressed in Escherichia coli. The variants are enzymically active and are practically indistinguishable from the original enzyme by several structural and spectroscopic criteria, despite the creation of new termini and the cleavage of a surface loop. This novel genetic approach should be useful for protein folding studies both in vitro and in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Luger, K -- Hommel, U -- Herold, M -- Hofsteenge, J -- Kirschner, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jan 13;243(4888):206-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Abteilung Biophysikalische Chemie, Universitat Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2643160" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of an AUUUA-specific messenger RNA binding protein (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-11-03
    Beschreibung: An important control point in gene expression is at the level of messenger RNA (mRNA) stability. The mRNAs of certain regulatory cellular proteins such as oncogenes, cytokines, lymphokines, and transcriptional activators are extremely labile. These messages share a common AUUUA pentamer in their 3' untranslated region, which confers cytoplasmic instability. A cytosolic protein was identified that binds specifically to RNA molecules containing four reiterations of the AUUUA structural element. This protein consists of three subunits and binds rapidly to AUUUA-containing RNA. Such protein-RNA complexes are resistant to the actions of denaturing and reducing agents, demonstrating very stable binding. The time course, stability, and specificity of the protein-AUUUA interaction suggests the possibility that the formation of this complex may target susceptible mRNA for rapid cytoplasmic degradation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Malter, J S -- CA01427-01/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 3;246(4930):664-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, LA 70112.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814487" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Arachidonic acid and other fatty acids directly activate potassium channels in smooth muscle cells (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-09
    Beschreibung: Arachidonic acid, as well as fatty acids that are not substrates for cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes, activated a specific type of potassium channel in freshly dissociated smooth muscle cells. Activation occurred in excised membrane patches in the absence of calcium and all nucleotides. Therefore signal transduction pathways that require such soluble factors, including the NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 pathway, do not mediate the response. Thus, fatty acids directly activate potassium channels and so may constitute a class of signal molecules that regulate ion channels.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ordway, R W -- Walsh, J V Jr -- Singer, J J -- DK-31620/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 9;244(4909):1176-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester 01655.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2471269" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publikationsdatum: 1989-12-22
    Beschreibung: The contribution of the anticodon to the discrimination between cognate and noncognate tRNAs by Escherichia coli Arg-tRNA synthetase has been investigated by in vitro synthesis and aminoacylation of elongator methionine tRNA (tRNA(mMet) mutants. Substitution of the Arg anticodon CCG for the Met anticodon CAU leads to a dramatic increase in Arg acceptance by tRNA(mMet). A nucleotide (A20) previously identified by others in the dihydrouridine loop of tRNA(Arg)s makes a smaller contribution to the conversion of tRNA(mMet) identity from Met to Arg. The combined anticodon and dihydrouridine loop mutations yield a tRNA(mMet) derivative that is aminoacylated with near-normal kinetics by the Arg-tRNA synthetase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schulman, L H -- Pelka, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 22;246(4937):1595-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Developmental Biology and Cancer, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY 10461.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2688091" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-03
    Beschreibung: Isolation of a clone encoding the mouse lymph node homing receptor reveals a deduced protein with an unusual protein mosaic architecture, containing a separate carbohydrate-binding (lectin) domain, an epidermal growth factor-like (EGF) domain, and an extracellular precisely duplicated repeat unit, which preserves the motif seen in the homologous repeat structure of complement regulatory proteins and other proteins. The receptor molecule is potentially highly glycosylated, and contains an apparent transmembrane region. Analysis of messenger RNA transcripts reveals a predominantly lymphoid distribution in direct relation to the cell surface expression of the MEL-14 determinant, and the cDNA clone is shown to confer the MEL-14 epitope in heterologous cells. The many novel features, including ubiquitination, embodied in this single receptor molecule form the basis for numerous approaches to the study of cell-cell interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Siegelman, M H -- van de Rijn, M -- Weissman, I L -- AI09022/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- OIG43551/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 3;243(4895):1165-72.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Stanford University School of Medicine, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2646713" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural origins of high-affinity biotin binding to streptavidin (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-01-06
    Beschreibung: The high affinity of the noncovalent interaction between biotin and streptavidin forms the basis for many diagnostic assays that require the formation of an irreversible and specific linkage between biological macromolecules. Comparison of the refined crystal structures of apo and a streptavidin:biotin complex shows that the high affinity results from several factors. These factors include the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions between biotin and the protein, together with the ordering of surface polypeptide loops that bury the biotin in the protein interior. Structural alterations at the biotin binding site produce quaternary changes in the streptavidin tetramer. These changes apparently propagate through cooperative deformations in the twisted beta sheets that link tetramer subunits.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weber, P C -- Ohlendorf, D H -- Wendoloski, J J -- Salemme, F R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jan 6;243(4887):85-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Central Research & Development Department, E.

    The role of cis-acting promoter elements in tissue-specific albumin gene expression (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-04-21
    Beschreibung: The mouse albumin gene promoter has six closely spaced binding sites for nuclear proteins that are located between the TATA motif and nucleotide position -170. In vitro transcription with liver or spleen nuclear extracts of templates containing either mutated or polymerized albumin promoter elements establishes a hierarchy of the different protein binding sites for tissue-specific albumin gene transcription. The HNF-1 and C/EBP binding sites strongly activate transcription in a tissue-specific manner. The NF-Y binding site has a lower activation potential and is less specific, being equally efficient in liver and spleen nuclear extracts. The remaining elements are relatively weak activator sites.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Maire, P -- Wuarin, J -- Schibler, U -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Apr 21;244(4902):343-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Departement de Biologie Moleculaire, Sciences II, Geneva, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2711183" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Catalytic hydrolysis of vasoactive intestinal peptide by human autoantibody (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-09
    Beschreibung: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) labeled with 125I, [Tyr10-125I]VIP, can be hydrolyzed by immunoglobulin G (IgG) purified from a human subject, as judged by trichloroacetic acid precipitation and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The hydrolytic activity was precipitated by antibody to human IgG, it was bound by immobilized protein G and showed a molecular mass close to 150 kilodaltons by gel filtration chromatography, properties similar to those of authentic IgG. The Fab fragment, prepared from IgG by papain treatment, retained the VIP hydrolytic activity of the IgG. Peptide fragments produced by treatment of VIP with the antibody fraction were purified by reversed-phase HPLC and identified by fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry and peptide sequencing. The scissile bond in VIP deduced from these experiments was Gln16-Met17. The antibody concentration (73.4 fmol per milligram of IgG) and the Kd (0.4 nM) were computed from analysis of VIP binding under conditions that did not result in peptide hydrolysis. Analysis of the antibody-mediated VIP hydrolysis at varying concentrations of substrate suggested conformity with Michaelis-Menton kinetics (Km). The values for Km (37.9 X 10(-9) M) and the turnover number kcat (15.6 min-1) suggested relatively tight VIP binding and a moderate catalytic efficiency of the antibody.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paul, S -- Volle, D J -- Beach, C M -- Johnson, D R -- Powell, M J -- Massey, R J -- HL 35506/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL 40348/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 9;244(4909):1158-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha 68105.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2727702" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural basis for misaminoacylation by mutant E. coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase enzymes (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-12-01
    Beschreibung: A single-site mutant of Escherichia coli glutaminyl-synthetase (D235N, GlnRS7) that incorrectly acylates in vivo the amber suppressor supF tyrosine transfer RNA (tRNA(Tyr] with glutamine has been described. Two additional mutant forms of the enzyme showing this misacylation property have now been isolated in vivo (D235G, GlnRS10; I129T, GlnRS15). All three mischarging mutant enzymes still retain a certain degree of tRNA specificity; in vivo they acylate supE glutaminyl tRNA (tRNA(Gln] and supF tRNA(Tyr) but not a number of other suppressor tRNA's. These genetic experiments define two positions in GlnRS where amino acid substitution results in a relaxed specificity of tRNA discrimination. The crystal structure of the GlnRS:tRNA(Gln) complex provides a structural basis for interpreting these data. In the wild-type enzyme Asp235 makes sequence-specific hydrogen bonds through its side chain carboxylate group with base pair G3.C70 in the minor groove of the acceptor stem of the tRNA. This observation implicates base pair 3.70 as one of the identity determinants of tRNA(Gln). Isoleucine 129 is positioned adjacent to the phosphate of nucleotide C74, which forms part of a hairpin structure adopted by the acceptor end of the complexed tRNA molecule. These results identify specific areas in the structure of the complex that are critical to accurate tRNA discrimination by GlnRS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perona, J J -- Swanson, R N -- Rould, M A -- Steitz, T A -- Soll, D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 1;246(4934):1152-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2686030" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Function of a bacterial activator protein that binds to transcriptional enhancers (1989)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-02-03
    Beschreibung: The nitrogen regulatory (NtrC) protein of enteric bacteria, which binds to sites that have the properties of transcriptional enhancers, is known to activate transcription by a form of RNA polymerase that contains the NtrA protein (sigma 54) as sigma factor (referred to as sigma 54-holoenzyme). In the presence of adenosine triphosphate, the NtrC protein catalyzes isomerization of closed recognition complexes between sigma 54-holoenzyme and the glnA promoter to open complexes in which DNA in the region of the transcription start site is locally denatured. NtrC is not required subsequently for maintenance of open complexes or initiation of transcription.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Popham, D L -- Szeto, D -- Keener, J -- Kustu, S -- GM38361/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 3;243(4891):629-35.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of California, Berkley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2563595" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inhibition of a class C beta-lactamase by a specific phosphonate monoester (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-11-17
    Beschreibung: A phosphonate monoester, m-carboxyphenyl phenylacetamidomethylphosphonate, has been found to be a specific inhibitor of the class C beta-lactamase of Enterobacter cloacae P99. Inactivation is rapid (10(3) per second per molar concentration) and reactivation very slow (2.2 X 10(-6) per second). Apparently concerted with the inactivation, one equivalent (with respect to the enzyme) of m-hydroxybenzoate is released. Reactivation is accelerated by hydroxylamine and benzohydroxamate. This suggests that the loss of enzyme activity is due to phosphonylation of an active site functional group. This discovery holds the promise of a new general class of beta-lactamase inhibitors and, perhaps, antibiotics.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pratt, R F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 17;246(4932):917-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chemistry Department, Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT 06457.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814513" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of Na+/H+ exchange by interferon-gamma in enhanced expression of JE and I-A beta genes (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-04-28
    Beschreibung: The rapid transductional sequences initiated by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) on binding to its receptor regulate functional and genomic responses in many cells but are not well defined. Induction of macrophage activation is an example of such functional and genomic changes in response to IFN-gamma. Addition of IFN-gamma to murine macrophages, at activating concentrations, produced rapid (within 60 seconds) alkalinization of the cytosol and a concomitant, rapid influx of 22Na+. Amiloride inhibited the ion fluxes and the accumulation of specific messenger RNA for two genes induced by IFN-gamma (the early gene JE and the beta chain of the class II major histocompatibility complex gene I-A). The data indicate that IFN-gamma initiates rapid exchange of Na+ and H+ by means of the Na+/H+ antiporter and that these amiloride-sensitive ion fluxes are important to some of the genomic effects of IFN-gamma.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Prpic, V -- Yu, S F -- Figueiredo, F -- Hollenbach, P W -- Gawdi, G -- Herman, B -- Uhing, R J -- Adams, D O -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Apr 28;244(4903):469-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2541500" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of a zinc finger protein that binds to the sterol regulatory element (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-11
    Beschreibung: Cholesterol balance in mammalian cells is maintained in part by sterol-mediated repression of gene transcription for the low density lipoprotein receptor and enzymes in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. A promoter sequence termed the sterol regulatory element (SRE) is essential for this repression. With the use of an oligonucleotide containing the SRE to screen a human hepatoma complementary DNA expression library, a clone for a DNA binding protein was isolated that binds to the conserved SRE octanucleotide in both a sequence-specific and a single-strand--specific manner. This protein contains seven highly conserved zinc finger repeats that exhibit striking sequence similarity to retroviral nucleic acid binding proteins (NBPs). We have designated the protein "cellular NBP" (CNBP). CNBP is expressed in a wide variety of tissues, is up regulated by sterols, and exhibits binding specificity that correlates with in vivo function. These properties are consistent with a role in sterol-mediated control of transcription.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rajavashisth, T B -- Taylor, A K -- Andalibi, A -- Svenson, K L -- Lusis, A J -- HL30568/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 11;245(4918):640-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles 90024.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2562787" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of E. coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase complexed with tRNA(Gln) and ATP at 2.8 A resolution (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-12-01
    Beschreibung: The crystal structure of Escherichia coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) complexed with its cognate glutaminyl transfer RNA (tRNA(Gln] and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has been derived from a 2.8 angstrom resolution electron density map and the known protein and tRNA sequences. The 63.4-kilodalton monomeric enzyme consists of four domains arranged to give an elongated molecule with an axial ratio greater than 3 to 1. Its interactions with the tRNA extend from the anticodon to the acceptor stem along the entire inside of the L of the tRNA. The complexed tRNA retains the overall conformation of the yeast phenylalanine tRNA (tRNA(Phe] with two major differences: the 3' acceptor strand of tRNA(Gln) makes a hairpin turn toward the inside of the L, with the disruption of the final base pair of the acceptor stem, and the anticodon loop adopts a conformation not seen in any of the previously determined tRNA structures. Specific recognition elements identified so far include (i) enzyme contacts with the 2-amino groups of guanine via the tRNA minor groove in the acceptor stem at G2 and G3; (ii) interactions between the enzyme and the anticodon nucleotides; and (iii) the ability of the nucleotides G73 and U1.A72 of the cognate tRNA to assume a conformation stabilized by the protein at a lower free energy cost than noncognate sequences. The central domain of this synthetase binds ATP, glutamine, and the acceptor end of the tRNA as well as making specific interactions with the acceptor stem.2+t is〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rould, M A -- Perona, J J -- Soll, D -- Steitz, T A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 1;246(4934):1135-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2479982" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The product of the mos proto-oncogene as a candidate "initiator" for oocyte maturation (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-11
    Beschreibung: The endogenous c-mos product, pp39mos, is required for progesterone-induced meiotic maturation in Xenopus oocytes. Treatment of oocytes with progesterone induced a rapid increase in pp39mos that preceded both the activation of maturation promoting factor (MPF) and germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). Microinjection of synthetic mos RNA into oocytes activated MPF and induced GVBD in the absence of progesterone. Thus, the mos proto-oncogene product may qualify as a candidate "initiator" protein of MPF and is at least one of the "triggers" for G2 to M transition.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sagata, N -- Daar, I -- Oskarsson, M -- Showalter, S D -- Vande Woude, G F -- N01-CO-74101/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 11;245(4918):643-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉BRI-Basic Research Program, National Cancer Institute, Frederick Cancer Research Facility, MD 21701.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2474853" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Epithelial cell surfaces induce Salmonella proteins required for bacterial adherence and invasion (1989)

    Beschreibung: Salmonella bacteria are capable of entering (invading) and multiplying within eukaryotic cells. Stable adherence to and invasion of epithelial cells by S. choleraesuis and S. typhimurium were found to require de novo synthesis of several new bacterial proteins. This inducible event appears to be a coordinately regulated system dependent on trypsin- and neuraminidase-sensitive structures present on the epithelial cell surface. Mutants of S. choleraesuis and S. typhimurium were unable to synthesize these proteins and did not stably adhere to nor invade eukaryotic cells. Two such S. typhimurium mutants were avirulent in mice, an indication that these proteins are required for Salmonella virulence.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Finlay, B B -- Heffron, F -- Falkow, S -- AI26195/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 17;243(4893):940-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medical Microbiology, Stanford University School of Medicine, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2919285" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Specific interactions in RNA enzyme-substrate complexes (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Publikationsdatum: 1989-12-22
    Beschreibung: Analysis of crosslinked complexes of M1 RNA, the catalytic RNA subunit of ribonuclease P from Escherichia coli, and transfer RNA precursor substrates has led to the identification of regions in the enzyme and in the substrate that are in close physical proximity to each other. The nucleotide in M1 RNA, residue C92, which participates in a crosslink with the substrate was deleted and the resulting mutant M1 RNA was shown to cleave substrates lacking the 3' terminal CCAUCA sequence at sites several nucleotides away from the normal site of cleavage. The presence or absence of the 3' terminal CCAUCA sequence in transfer RNA precursor substrates markedly affects the way in which these substrates interact with the catalytic RNA in the enzyme-substrate complex. The contacts between wild-type M1 RNA and its substrate are in a region that resembles part of the transfer RNA "E" (exit) site in 23S ribosomal RNA. These data demonstrate that in RNA's with very different cellular functions, there are domains with similar structural and functional properties and that there is a nucleotide in M1 RNA that affects the site of cleavage by the enzyme.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Guerrier-Takada, C -- Lumelsky, N -- Altman, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 22;246(4937):1578-84.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2480641" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Control of enzyme activity by an engineered disulfide bond (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Publikationsdatum: 1989-02-10
    Beschreibung: A novel approach to the control of enzyme catalysis is presented in which a disulfide bond engineered into the active-site cleft of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme is capable of switching the activity on and off. Two cysteines (Thr21----Cys and Thr142----Cys) were introduced by oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis into the active-site cleft. These cysteines spontaneously formed a disulfide bond under oxidative conditions in vitro, and the catalytic activity of the oxidized (cross-linked) T4 lysozyme was completely lost. On exposure to reducing agent, however, the disulfide bond was rapidly broken, and the reduced (non-cross-linked) lysozyme was restored to full activity. Thus an enzyme has been engineered such that redox potential can be used to control catalytic activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Matsumura, M -- Matthews, B W -- GM21967/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 10;243(4892):792-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2916125" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stereochemistry of RNA cleavage by the Tetrahymena ribozyme and evidence that the chemical step is not rate-limiting (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-05-12
    Beschreibung: The intervening sequence of the ribosomal RNA precursor of Tetrahymena is a catalytic RNA molecule, or ribozyme. Acting as a sequence-specific endoribonuclease, it cleaves single-stranded RNA substrates with concomitant addition of guanosine. The chemistry of the reaction has now been studied by introduction of a single phosphorothioate in the substrate RNA at the cleavage site. Kinetic studies show no significant effect of this substitution on kcat (rate constant) or Km (Michaelis constant), providing evidence that some step other than the chemical step is rate-limiting. Product analysis reveals that the reaction proceeds with inversion of configuration at phosphorus, consistent with an in-line, SN2 (P) mechanism. Thus, the ribozyme reaction is in the same mechanistic category as the individual displacement reactions catalyzed by protein nucleotidyltransferases, phosphotransferases, and nucleases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉McSwiggen, J A -- Cech, T R -- GM28039/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 12;244(4905):679-83.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder 80309-0215.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2470150" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-02
    Beschreibung: Double-stranded (ds) RNA and many viruses are inducers of interferon (IFN), the latter presumably because they contain, or can form, dsRNA. Concomitant with the induction of IFN in chicken embryo cells was the induction of a novel double-stranded ribonuclease (dsRNase), which was released into the medium and continued to accumulate long after IFN production ceased. Only avian cells (chicken, quail, turkey, or duck) expressed high levels of this dsRNase; mammalian, turtle, or fish cells did not. Production of the nuclease was inducer dose-dependent. Optimum pH and cation requirements distinguished it from other dsRNase activities. Degradation of dsRNA was endonucleolytic. Activity resided in a molecule of an Mr of approximately 34,500. Low levels of a single-stranded (ss) RNase activity were inseparable from the dsRNase. The role for a dsRNA-inducible dsRNase released from cells is unknown.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meegan, J M -- Marcus, P I -- AI18381/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 2;244(4908):1089-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, The University of Connecticut, Storrs 06269.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2471268" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    DNA looping generated by DNA bending protein IHF and the two domains of lambda integrase (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-23
    Beschreibung: The multiprotein-DNA complexes that participate in bacteriophage lambda site-specific recombination were used to study the combined effect of protein-induced bending and protein-mediated looping of DNA. The protein integrase (Int) is a monomer with two autonomous DNA binding domains of different sequence specificity. Stimulation of Int binding and cleavage at the low affinity core-type DNA sites required interactions with the high affinity arm-type sites and depended on simultaneous binding of the sequence-specific DNA bending protein IHF (integration host factor). The bivalent DNA binding protein is positioned at high affinity sites and directed, by a DNA bending protein, to interactions with distant lower affinity sites. Assembly of this complex is independent of protein-protein interactions.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1892171/" 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/PMC1892171/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moitoso de Vargas, L -- Kim, S -- Landy, A -- AI-13544/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM-33928/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM033928/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM062723/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 23;244(4911):1457-61.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Biology and Medicine, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2544029" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structure of complex of synthetic HIV-1 protease with a substrate-based inhibitor at 2.3 A resolution (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-12-01
    Beschreibung: The structure of a complex between a peptide inhibitor with the sequence N-acetyl-Thr-Ile-Nle-psi[CH2-NH]-Nle-Gln-Arg.amide (Nle, norleucine) with chemically synthesized HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus 1) protease was determined at 2.3 A resolution (R factor of 0.176). Despite the symmetric nature of the unliganded enzyme, the asymmetric inhibitor lies in a single orientation and makes extensive interactions at the interface between the two subunits of the homodimeric protein. Compared with the unliganded enzyme, the protein molecule underwent substantial changes, particularly in an extended region corresponding to the "flaps" (residues 35 to 57 in each chain), where backbone movements as large as 7 A are observed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Miller, M -- Schneider, J -- Sathyanarayana, B K -- Toth, M V -- Marshall, G R -- Clawson, L -- Selk, L -- Kent, S B -- Wlodawer, A -- A-127302/PHS HHS/ -- N01-C0-74101/PHS HHS/ -- SM-24483/SM/CMHS SAMHSA HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Dec 1;246(4934):1149-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉NCI-Frederick Cancer Research Facility, BRI-Basic Research Program, MD 21701.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2686029" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Receptor-mediated drug delivery to macrophages in chemotherapy of leishmaniasis (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-05-12
    Beschreibung: Methotrexate coupled to maleylated bovine serum albumin was taken up efficiently through the "scavenger" receptors present on macrophages and led to selective killing of intracellular Leishmania mexicana amazonensis amastigotes in cultured hamster peritoneal macrophages. The drug conjugate was nearly 100 times as effective as free methotrexate in eliminating the intracellular parasites. Furthermore, in a model of experimental cutaneous leishmaniasis in hamsters, the drug conjugate brought about more than 90% reduction in the size of footpad lesions within 11 days. In contrast, the free drug at a similar concentration did not significantly affect lesion size. These studies demonstrate the potential of receptor-mediated drug delivery in the therapy of macrophage-associated diseases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mukhopadhyay, A -- Chaudhuri, G -- Arora, S K -- Sehgal, S -- Basu, S K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 12;244(4905):705-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Microbial Technology, Chandigarh, India.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2717947" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    In vivo footprinting of a muscle specific enhancer by ligation mediated PCR (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-11-10
    Beschreibung: In vivo protein-DNA interactions at the developmentally regulated enhancer of the mouse muscle creatine kinase (MCK) gene were examined by a newly developed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) footprinting procedure. This ligation mediated, single-sided PCR technique permits the exponential amplification of an entire sequence ladder. Several footprints were detected in terminally differentiated muscle cells where the MCK gene is actively transcribed. None were observed in myogenic cells prior to differentiation or in nonmuscle cells. Two footprints appear to correspond to sites that can bind the myogenic regulator MyoD1 in vitro, whereas two others represent muscle specific use of apparently general factors. Because MyoD1 is synthesized by undifferentiated myoblasts, these data imply that additional regulatory mechanisms must restrict the interaction between this protein and its target site prior to differentiation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mueller, P R -- Wold, B -- GM35526/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR07003/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 10;246(4931):780-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Biology, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814500" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Domain separation in the activation of glycogen phosphorylase a (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-04
    Beschreibung: The crystal structure of glycogen phosphorylase a complexed with its substrates, orthophosphate and maltopentaose, has been determined and refined at a resolution of 2.8 angstroms. With oligosaccaride bound at the glycogen storage site, the phosphate ion binds at the catalytic site and causes the regulatory and catalytic domains to separate with the loss of stabilizing interactions between them. Homotropic cooperativity between the active sites of the allosteric dimer results from rearrangements in isologous contacts between symmetry-related helices in the subunit interface. The conformational changes in the core of the interface are correlated with those observed on covalent activation by phosphorylation at Ser14 (phosphorylase b----a).〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goldsmith, E J -- Sprang, S R -- Hamlin, R -- Xuong, N H -- Fletterick, R J -- DK31507-05/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM00085-05/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 4;245(4917):528-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas 75235.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2756432" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutant potassium channels with altered binding of charybdotoxin, a pore-blocking peptide inhibitor (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-09-22
    Beschreibung: The inhibition by charybdotoxin of A-type potassium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes was studied for several splicing variants of the Drosophila Shaker gene and for several site-directed mutants of this channel. Charybdotoxin blocking affinity is lowered by a factor of 3.5 upon replacing glutamate-422 with glutamine, and by a factor of about 12 upon substituting lysine in this position. Replacement of glutamate-422 by aspartate had no effect on toxin affinity. Thus, the glutamate residue at position 422 of this potassium channel is near or in the externally facing mouth of the potassium conduction pathway, and the positively charged toxin is electrostatically focused toward its blocking site by the negative potential set up by glutamate-422.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉MacKinnon, R -- Miller, C -- AR 19826/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 31768/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS 07292/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Sep 22;245(4924):1382-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02254.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2476850" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The diageotropica mutant of tomato lacks high specific activity auxin binding sites (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-07-07
    Beschreibung: Tomato plants homozygous for the diageotropica (dgt) mutation exhibit morphological and physiological abnormalities which suggest that they are unable to respond to the plant growth hormone auxin (indole-3-acetic acid). The photoaffinity auxin analog [3H]5N3-IAA specifically labels a polypeptide doublet of 40 and 42 kilodaltons in membrane preparations from stems of the parental variety, VFN8, but not from stems of plants containing the dgt mutation. In roots of the mutant plants, however, labeling is indistinguishable from that in VFN8. These data suggest that the two polypeptides are part of a physiologically important auxin receptor system, which is altered in a tissue-specific manner in the mutant.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hicks, G R -- Rayle, D L -- Lomax, T L -- DCB-8718731/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 7;245:52-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, Oregon State University, Corvallis 97331-2902.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11537490" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dispersed polaron simulations of electron transfer in photosynthetic reaction centers (1989)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-10-06
    Beschreibung: A microscopic method for simulating quantum mechanical, nuclear tunneling effects in biological electron transfer reactions is presented and applied to several electron transfer steps in photosynthetic bacterial reaction centers. In this "dispersed polaron" method the fluctuations of the protein and the electron carriers are projected as effective normal modes onto an appropriate reaction coordinate and used to evaluate the quantum mechanical rate constant. The simulations, based on the crystallographic structure of the reaction center from Rhodopseudomonas viridis, focus on electron transfer from a bacteriopheophytin to a quinone and the subsequent back-reaction. The rates of both of these reactions are almost independent of temperature or even increase with decreasing temperature. The simulations reproduce this unusual temperature dependence in a qualitative way, without the use of adjustable parameters for the protein's Franck-Condon factors. The observed dependence of the back-reaction on the free energy of the reaction also is reproduced, including the special behavior in the "inverted region."〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Warshel, A -- Chu, Z T -- Parson, W W -- GM-40283/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Oct 6;246(4926):112-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90007.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2675313" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: The chemical identity of the amino acid free-radical site that represents one of the two oxidizing equivalents stored in the H2O2-oxidized intermediate (compound ES) of the mitochondrial heme enzyme, cytochrome c peroxidase (CcP) has been sought for almost a quarter of a century. Site-directed mutagenesis alone cannot yield this answer. Low-temperature 35-gigahertz (Q-band) electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy was used to examine compound ES prepared from proteins containing specifically deuterated methionine or tryptophan, as well as the amino acid replacement Trp51----Phe. The results definitely identify the site of the radical in compound ES as tryptophan, most likely Trp191.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sivaraja, M -- Goodin, D B -- Smith, M -- Hoffman, B M -- GM-33804/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-41049/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL-13531/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM041049/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 18;245(4919):738-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2549632" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Leucine repeats and an adjacent DNA binding domain mediate the formation of functional cFos-cJun heterodimers (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-31
    Beschreibung: The discovery that the AP-1 family of enhancer binding factors includes a complex of the cellular Fos (cFos) and cellular Jun (cJun) proteins established a direct and important link between oncogenesis and transcriptional regulation. Homodimeric cJun protein synthesized in vitro is capable of binding selectively to AP-1 recognition sites, whereas the cFos polypeptide is not. When cotranslated, the cFos and cJun proteins can form a stable, heterodimeric complex with the DNA binding properties of AP-1/cJun. The related proteins Jun B and vJun are also able to form DNA binding complexes with cFos. Directed mutagenesis of the cFos protein reveals that a leucine repeat structure is required for binding to cJun, in a manner consistent with the proposed function of the "leucine zipper." A novel domain adjacent to, but distinct from, the leucine repeat of cFos is required for DNA binding by cFos-cJun heterodimers. Thus experimental evidence is presented that leucine repeats can mediate complex formation between heterologous proteins and that promotes further understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of two proto-oncogene products.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Turner, R -- Tjian, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 31;243(4899):1689-94.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Biochemistry, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2494701" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: The protein products of the fos and jun proto-oncogenes form a heterodimeric complex that participates in a stable high affinity interaction with DNA elements containing AP-1 binding sites. The effects of deletions and point mutations in Fos and Jun on protein complex formation and DNA binding have been examined. The data suggest that Fos and Jun dimerize via a parallel interaction of helical domains containing a heptad repeat of leucine residues (the leucine zipper). Dimerization is required for DNA binding and results in the appropriate juxtaposition of basic amino acid regions from Fos and Jun, both of which are required for association with DNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gentz, R -- Rauscher, F J 3rd -- Abate, C -- Curran, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 31;243(4899):1695-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Oncology, Roche Institute of Molecular Biology, Nutley, NJ 07110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2494702" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Direct Bronsted analysis of the restoration of activity to a mutant enzyme by exogenous amines (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-17
    Beschreibung: A true Bronsted analysis of proton transfer in an enzyme mechanism is made possible by the chemical rescue of an inactive mutant of aspartate aminotransferase, where the endogenous general base, Lys258, is replaced with Ala by site-directed mutagenesis. Catalytic activity is restored to this inactive mutant by exogenous amines. The eleven amines studied generate a Bronsted correlation with beta of 0.4 for the transamination of cysteine sulfinate, when steric effects are included in the regression analysis. Localized mutagenesis thus allows the classical Bronsted analysis of transition-state structure to be applied to enzyme-catalyzed reactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Toney, M D -- Kirsch, J F -- GM07232/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM35393/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 17;243(4897):1485-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2538921" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular modeling of the HIV-1 protease and its substrate binding site (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-02-17
    Beschreibung: The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) encodes a protease that is essential for viral replication and is a member of the aspartic protease family. The recently determined three-dimensional structure of the related protease from Rous sarcoma virus has been used to model the smaller HIV-1 dimer. The active site has been analyzed by comparison to the structure of the aspartic protease, rhizopuspepsin, complexed with a peptide inhibitor. The HIV-1 protease is predicted to interact with seven residues of the protein substrate. This information can be used to design protease inhibitors and possible antiviral drugs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weber, I T -- Miller, M -- Jaskolski, M -- Leis, J -- Skalka, A M -- Wlodawer, A -- CA-06927/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA38046/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01-CO-74101/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 17;243(4893):928-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Crystallography Laboratory, NCI-Frederick Cancer Research Facility, MD 21701.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2537531" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Signal transduction by the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-24
    Beschreibung: When platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) binds to its receptor on a quiescent fibroblast or smooth muscle cell, it stimulates a remarkably diverse group of biochemical responses, including changes in ion fluxes, activation of several kinases, alterations in cell shape, increased transcription of a number of genes, and stimulation of enzymes that regulate phospholipid metabolism. These and other reactions culminate, hours later, in DNA replication and cell division. How does the receptor for PDGF recognize and bind its specific ligand and then transduce this signal across the cell membrane via a single membrane-spanning region? Which of the immediate cellular responses are directly involved in the biochemical pathways that lead to DNA synthesis? How does the PDGF receptor trigger a diverse group of responses? Recent studies of the PDGF receptor have provided insight into these issues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Williams, L T -- HL-32898/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 24;243(4898):1564-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0724.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2538922" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Block of stretch-activated ion channels in Xenopus oocytes by gadolinium and calcium ions (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-02-24
    Beschreibung: Gadolinium ions produce three distinct kinds of block of the stretch-activated (SA) ion channels in Xenopus oocytes: a concentration-dependent reduction in channel open time, a concentration-dependent reduction in open channel current, and a unique, steeply concentration-dependent, reversible inhibition of channel opening. This last effect reduces the probability of a channel being open from about 10(-1) at 5 microM to less than 10(-5) at 10 microM gadolinium. Calcium has effects on open time and current similar to that of gadolinium, but this channel is permeable to calcium and calcium does not completely inhibit channel activity. The availability of a blocker for SA ion channels may help to define their physiological function, and will simplify the use of oocytes as an expression system for ion channels.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, X C -- Sachs, F -- DK-37792/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 24;243(4894 Pt 1):1068-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉State University of New York, Buffalo 14214.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2466333" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Rapid beta-adrenergic modulation of cardiac calcium channel currents by a fast G protein pathway (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-07-07
    Beschreibung: beta-Adrenergic agonists activate the G protein, Gs, which stimulates cardiac calcium currents by both cytoplasmic, indirect and membrane-delimited, direct pathways. To test whether beta-adrenergic agonists might use both pathways in the heart, isoproterenol was rapidly applied to cardiac myocytes, resulting in a biphasic increase in cardiac calcium channel currents that had time constants of 150 milliseconds and 36 seconds. beta-Adrenergic antagonists of a G protein inhibitor blocked both the fast and slow responses, whereas the adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin produced only the slow response. The presence of a fast pathway in the heart can explain what the slow pathway cannot account for: the ability of cardiac sympathetic nerves to change heart rate within a single beat.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yatani, A -- Brown, A M -- HL36930/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL37044/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- NS23877/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 7;245(4913):71-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2544999" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Conserved folding in retroviral proteases: crystal structure of a synthetic HIV-1 protease (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-08-11
    Beschreibung: The rational design of drugs that can inhibit the action of viral proteases depends on obtaining accurate structures of these enzymes. The crystal structure of chemically synthesized HIV-1 protease has been determined at 2.8 angstrom resolution (R factor of 0.184) with the use of a model based on the Rous sarcoma virus protease structure. In this enzymatically active protein, the cysteines were replaced by alpha-amino-n-butyric acid, a nongenetically coded amino acid. This structure, in which all 99 amino acids were located, differs in several important details from that reported previously by others. The interface between the identical subunits forming the active protease dimer is composed of four well-ordered beta strands from both the amino and carboxyl termini and residues 86 to 94 have a helical conformation. The observed arrangement of the dimer interface suggests possible designs for dimerization inhibitors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wlodawer, A -- Miller, M -- Jaskolski, M -- Sathyanarayana, B K -- Baldwin, E -- Weber, I T -- Selk, L M -- Clawson, L -- Schneider, J -- Kent, S B -- N01-CO-74101/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Aug 11;245(4918):616-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Crystallography Laboratory, NCI-Frederick Cancer Research Facility, MD 21701.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2548279" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Proton motive force involved in protein transport across the outer membrane of Aeromonas salmonicida (1989)

    Beschreibung: Many Gram-negative bacteria export proteins to the exterior. Some of these proteins are first secreted into the periplasm and then cross the outer membrane in a separate step. The source of energy required for the translocation is unknown. Export of the extracellular protein proaerolysin from the periplasm through the outer membrane of Aeromonas salmonicida is inhibited by a proton ionophore and by low extracellular pH. One possible explanation of these results is that a proton gradient across the outer membrane is required for export.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wong, K R -- Buckley, J T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 3;246(4930):654-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, University of Victoria, BC, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814486" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Functionally distinct NF-kappa B binding sites in the immunoglobulin kappa and IL-2 receptor alpha chain genes (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-04-28
    Beschreibung: The interleukin-2 receptor alpha (IL-2R alpha) chain gene contains a sequence similar to the immunoglobulin (Ig) kappa (kappa) enhancer NF-kappa B binding site. This site, which is bound by the nuclear protein, NF-kappa B, is critical for Ig kappa gene expression. The major T cell nuclear factor that binds to the IL-2R alpha site in vitro appears indistinguishable from NF-kappa B. NF-kappa B binds to IL-2R alpha and kappa sequences with similar affinities; however, only the kappa site potently activates transcription from heterologous promoters. Thus, high-affinity NF-kappa B binding in vitro cannot be equated with transcriptional activation in vivo. Mutation of the NF-kappa B binding site in the context of an IL-2 R alpha promoter construct markedly diminished promoter activity in human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-transformed MT-2 cells but not in phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated Jurkat T cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cross, S L -- Halden, N F -- Lenardo, M J -- Leonard, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Apr 28;244(4903):466-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cell Biology and Metabolism Branch, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2497520" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Membranes as the energy source in the endergonic transformation of vitamin A to 11-cis-retinol (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-05-26
    Beschreibung: The eye needs to biosynthesize 11-cis-retinoids because the chromophore of rhodopsin is 11-cis-retinal. The critical metabolic step is the endergonic isomerization of free all-trans-retinol (vitamin A) into 11-cis-retinol. This isomerization process can take place in isolated membranes from the retinal pigment epithelium in the absence of added energy sources. Specific binding proteins probably do not serve as an energy source, and since all of the reactions in the visual cycle are shown here to be reversible, trapping reactions also do not participate in the isomerization reaction. One previously unexplored possibility is that the chemical energy in the bonds of the membrane itself may drive the isomerization reaction. A group transfer reaction is proposed that forms a retinyl ester from a lipid acyl donor and vitamin A. This transfer can drive the isomerization reaction because the all-trans-retinyl ester is isomerized directly to 11-cis-retinol. Thus, the free energy of hydrolysis of the ester is coupled to the thermodynamically uphill trans to cis isomerization. The prediction of an obligate C-O bond cleavage in the vitamin A moiety during isomerization is borne out. Although the natural substrate for isomerization is not known, all-trans-retinyl palmitate is processed in vitro to 11-cis-retinol by pigment epithelial membranes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Deigner, P S -- Law, W C -- Canada, F J -- Rando, R R -- EY04096/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 26;244(4907):968-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2727688" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Hydrogen tunneling in enzyme reactions (1989)

    Publikationsdatum: 1989-03-10
    Beschreibung: Primary and secondary protium-to-tritium (H/T) and deuterium-to-tritium (D/T) kinetic isotope effects for the catalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde by yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (YADH) at 25 degrees Celsius have been determined. Previous studies showed that this reaction is nearly or fully rate limited by the hydrogen-transfer step. Semiclassical mass considerations that do not include tunneling effects would predict that kH/kT = (kD/kT)3.26, where kH, kD, and kT are the rate constants for the reaction of protium, deuterium, and tritium derivatives, respectively. Significant deviations from this relation have now been observed for both primary and especially secondary effects, such that experimental H/T ratios are much greater than those calculated from the above expression. These deviations also hold in the temperature range from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. Such deviations were previously predicted to result from a reaction coordinate containing a significant contribution from hydrogen tunneling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cha, Y -- Murray, C J -- Klinman, J P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 10;243(4896):1325-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2646716" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Human alpha- and beta-globin genes were separately fused downstream of two erythroid-specific deoxyribonuclease (DNase) I super-hypersensitive sites that are normally located 50 kilobases upstream of the human beta-globin gene. These two constructs were coinjected into fertilized mouse eggs, and expression was analyzed in transgenic animals that developed. Mice that had intact copies of the transgenes expressed high levels of correctly initiated human alpha- and beta-globin messenger RNA specifically in erythroid tissue. An authentic human hemoglobin was formed in adult erythrocytes that when purified had an oxygen equilibrium curve identical to the curve of native human hemoglobin A (Hb A). Thus, functional human hemoglobin can be synthesized in transgenic mice. This provides a foundation for production of mouse models of human hemoglobinopathies such as sickle cell disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Behringer, R R -- Ryan, T M -- Reilly, M P -- Asakura, T -- Palmiter, R D -- Brinster, R L -- Townes, T M -- HD-09172/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HL-35559/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-38632/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Sep 1;245(4921):971-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Reproductive Physiology, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2772649" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Activation of salivary secretion: coupling of cell volume and [Ca2+]i in single cells (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1989-06-30
    Beschreibung: High-resolution differential interference contrast microscopy and digital imaging of the fluorescent calcium indicator dye fura-2 were performed simultaneously in single rat salivary gland acinar cells to examine the effects of muscarinic stimulation on cell volume and cytoplasmic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). Agonist stimulation of fluid secretion is initially associated with a rapid tenfold increase in [Ca2+]i as well as a substantial cell shrinkage. Subsequent changes of cell volume in the continued presence of agonist are tightly coupled to dynamic levels of [Ca2+]i, even during [Ca2+]i oscillations. Experiments with Ca2+ chelators and ionophores showed that physiological elevations of [Ca2+]i are necessary and sufficient to cause changes in cell volume. The relation between [Ca2+]i and cell volume suggests that the latter reflects the secretory state of the acinar cell. Agonist-induced changes in [Ca2+]i, by modulating specific ion permeabilities, result in solute movement into or out of the cell. The resultant cell volume changes may be important in modulating salivary secretion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Foskett, J K -- Melvin, J E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 30;244(4912):1582-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Physiology Department, Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute, Bethesda, MD 20814.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2500708" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Fidelity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-11-25
    Beschreibung: The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) shows extensive genetic variation and undergoes rapid evolution. The fidelity of purified HIV-1 reverse transcriptase was measured during DNA polymerization in vitro by means of three different assays. Reverse transcriptase from HIV-1 introduced base-substitution errors in DNA from the bacteriophage phi X174 amber3 at estimated frequencies of 1/2000 to 1/4000. Analyses of misincorporation rates opposite a single template adenine residue showed that HIV-1 reverse transcriptase catalyzed nucleotide mismatches with a specificity of A:C much greater than A:G greater than A:A. The high error rate of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase in vitro translates to approximately five to ten errors per HIV-1 genome per round of replication in vivo. This high error rate suggests that misincorporation by HIV-1 reverse transcriptase is, at least in part, responsible for the hypermutability of the AIDS virus. The specificity of misincorporation may provide a basis for the systematic construction of antiviral nucleosides.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Preston, B D -- Poiesz, B J -- Loeb, L A -- CA-07263-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01AI72654/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R35-CA-39903/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 25;242(4882):1168-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, University of Washington, Seattle 98195.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2460924" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: BC3H1 myocytes release membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase to the incubation medium upon stimulation with insulin, following a time course that is consistent with the generation of dimyristoylglycerol and the appearance of a putative insulin mediator in the extracellular medium. The use of specific blocking agents shows, however, that alkaline phosphatase release and dimyristoylglycerol production are independent processes and that the blockade of either event inhibits the production of insulin mediator.

    Cellular transcription factors and regulation of IL-2 receptor gene expression by HTLV-I tax gene product (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-07-01
    Beschreibung: Expression of the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R alpha) gene is activated by the transcriptional activator protein, Tax (previously referred to as the tat gene product), encoded by the human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV-I). Multiple protein binding sites for specific DNA-protein interactions were identified over the upstream IL-2R alpha transcriptional regulatory sequences. However, only one region, which includes the sequence motif GGGGAATCTCCC, was required for activation by both the tax gene product and mitogenic stimulation. Remarkably, this sequence also bound the nuclear factor NF kappa B, which is important for induction of kappa-immunoglobulin gene expression. A model is presented whereby regulation of cellular gene expression by the HTLV-I tax gene product occurs via an indirect mechanism that may involve a post-translational modification of preexistent cellular transcription factors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ruben, S -- Poteat, H -- Tan, T H -- Kawakami, K -- Roeder, R -- Haseltine, W -- Rosen, C A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jul 1;241(4861):89-92.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Oncology, Roche Institute of Molecular Biology, Nutley, NJ 07110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2838905" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Anticodon switching changes the identity of methionine and valine transfer RNAs (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-11-04
    Beschreibung: The anticodon has previously been shown to play a role in recognition of certain transfer RNAs by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases; however, the extent to which this sequence dictates tRNA identity is generally unknown. To investigate the contribution of the anticodon to the identity of Escherichia coli methionine and valine tRNAs, in vitro transcripts of these tRNAs were prepared that contained normal and interchanged anticodon sequences. Transcripts containing wild-type tRNA sequences were excellent substrates for their respective cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases and were effectively discriminated against by a variety of noncognate enzymes. The mutant tRNAs produced by switching the anticodon sequences lost their original tRNA identity and assumed an identity corresponding to the acquired anticodon sequence. These results indicate that the anticodon contains sufficient information to distinguish methionine and valine tRNAs with high fidelity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schulman, L H -- Pelka, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 4;242(4879):765-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Developmental Biology and Cancer, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York 10461.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3055296" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A continuous cell-free translation system capable of producing polypeptides in high yield (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-11-25
    Beschreibung: A cell-free translation system has been constructed that uses a continuous flow of the feeding buffer [including amino acids, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and guanosine triphosphate (GTP)] through the reaction mixture and a continuous removal of a polypeptide product. Both prokaryotic (Escherichia coli) and eukaryotic (wheat embryos, Triticum sp.) versions of the system have been tested. In both cases the system has proven active for long times, synthesizing polypeptides at a high constant rate for tens of hours. With the use of MS2 phage RNA or brome mosaic virus RNA 4 as templates, 100 copies of viral coat proteins per RNA were synthesized for 20 hours in the prokaryotic or eukaryotic system, respectively. With synthetic calcitonin messenger RNA, 150 to 300 copies of calcitonin polypeptide were produced per messenger RNA in both types of continuous translation systems for 40 hours.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Spirin, A S -- Baranov, V I -- Ryabova, L A -- Ovodov, S Y -- Alakhov, Y B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 25;242(4882):1162-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Protein Research, Academy of Sciences, Moscow Region, USSR.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3055301" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of the protein moiety of ribonuclease P, a ribonucleoprotein enzyme (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-01-08
    Beschreibung: The Bacillus subtilis ribonuclease P consists of a protein and an RNA. At high ionic strength the reaction is protein-independent; the RNA alone is capable of cleaving precursor transfer RNA, but the turnover is slow. Kinetic analyses show that high salt concentrations facilitate substrate binding in the absence of the protein, probably by decreasing the repulsion between the polyanionic enzyme and substrate RNAs, and also slow product release and enzyme turnover. It is proposed that the ribonuclease P protein, which is small and basic, provides a local pool of counter-ions that facilitates substrate binding without interfering with rapid product release.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Reich, C -- Olsen, G J -- Pace, B -- Pace, N R -- GM34527/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jan 8;239(4836):178-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington 47405.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3122322" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Combinatorial cassette mutagenesis as a probe of the informational content of protein sequences (1988)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-07-01
    Beschreibung: A method of combinatorial cassette mutagenesis was designed to readily determine the informational content of individual residues in protein sequences. The technique consists of simultaneously randomizing two or three positions by oligonucleotide cassette mutagenesis, selecting for functional protein, and then sequencing to determine the spectrum of allowable substitutions at each position. Repeated application of this method to the dimer interface of the DNA-binding domain of lambda repressor reveals that the number and type of substitutions allowed at each position are extremely variable. At some positions only one or two residues are functionally acceptable; at other positions a wide range of residues and residue types are tolerated. The number of substitutions allowed at each position roughly correlates with the solvent accessibility of the wild-type side chain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Reidhaar-Olson, J F -- Sauer, R T -- AI-15706/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jul 1;241(4861):53-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3388019" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Accuracy of in vivo aminoacylation requires proper balance of tRNA and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-12-16
    Beschreibung: The fidelity of protein biosynthesis in any cell rests on the accuracy of aminoacylation of tRNA. The exquisite specificity of this reaction is critically dependent on the correct recognition of tRNA by aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. It is shown here that the relative concentrations of a tRNA and its cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase are normally well balanced and crucial for maintenance of accurate aminoacylation. When Escherichia coli Gln-tRNA synthetase is overproduced in vivo, it incorrectly acylates the supF amber suppressor tRNA(Tyr) with Gln. This effect is abolished when the intracellular concentration of the cognate tRNA(Gln2) is also elevate. These data indicate that the presence of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase and the cognate tRNAs in complexed form, which requires the proper balance of the two macromolecules, is critical in maintaining the fidelity of protein biosynthesis. Thus, limits exist on the relative levels of tRNAs and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases within a cell.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Swanson, R -- Hoben, P -- Sumner-Smith, M -- Uemura, H -- Watson, L -- Soll, D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Dec 16;242(4885):1548-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3144042" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: The gp120 envelope glycoprotein of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is expressed on the surface of many HIV-infected cells, binds to the cell surface molecule CD4. Soluble derivatives of recombinant CD4 (rCD4) that bind gp120 with high affinity are attractive vehicles for targeting a cytotoxic reagent to HIV-infected cells. Soluble rCD4 was conjugated to the active subunit of the toxin ricin. This conjugate killed HIV-infected H9 cells but was 1/1000 as toxic to uninfected H9 cells (which do not express gp120) and was not toxic to Daudi cells (which express major histocompatibility class II antigens, the putative natural ligand for cell surface CD4). Specific killing of infected cells can be blocked by rgp120, rCD4, or a monoclonal antibody to the gp120 binding site on CD4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Till, M A -- Ghetie, V -- Gregory, T -- Patzer, E J -- Porter, J P -- Uhr, J W -- Capon, D J -- Vitetta, E S -- CA-09082/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA-28149/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA-41081/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 25;242(4882):1166-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas 75235.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2847316" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of a putative regulator of early T cell activation genes (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-07-08
    Beschreibung: Molecules involved in the antigen receptor-dependent regulation of early T cell activation genes were investigated with the use of functional sequences of the T cell activation-specific enhancer of interleukin-2 (IL-2). One of these sequences forms a protein complex, NFAT-1, specifically with nuclear extracts of activated T cells. This complex appeared 10 to 25 minutes before the activation of the IL-2 gene. Studies with inhibitors of protein synthesis indicated that the time of synthesis of the activator of the IL-2 gene in Jurkat T cells corresponds to the time of appearance of NFAT-1. NFAT-1, or a very similar protein, bound functional sequences of the long terminal repeat (LTR) of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1; the LTR of this virus is known to be stimulated during early T cell activation. The binding site for this complex activated a linked promoter after transfection into antigen receptor-activated T cells but not other cell types. These characteristics suggest that NFAT-1 transmits signals initiated at the T cell antigen receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shaw, J P -- Utz, P J -- Durand, D B -- Toole, J J -- Emmel, E A -- Crabtree, G R -- CA 01048/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 39612/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- HL 33942/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jul 8;241(4862):202-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Stanford University, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3260404" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Sugar and signal-transducer binding sites of the Escherichia coli galactose chemoreceptor protein (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-12-02
    Beschreibung: D-galactose-binding (or chemoreceptor) protein of Escherichia coli serves as an initial component for both chemotaxis towards galactose and glucose and high-affinity active transport of the two sugars. Well-refined x-ray structures of the liganded forms of the wild-type and a mutant protein isolated from a strain defective in chemotaxis but fully competent in transport have provided a molecular view of the sugar-binding site and of a site for interacting with the Trg transmembrane signal transducer. The geometry of the sugar-binding site, located in the cleft between the two lobes of the bilobate protein, is novel in that it is designed for tight binding and sequestering of either the alpha or beta anomer of the D-stereoisomer of the 4-epimers galactose and glucose. Binding specificity and affinity are conferred primarily by polar planar side-chain residues that form intricate networks of cooperative and bidentate hydrogen bonds with the sugar substrates, and secondarily by aromatic residues that sandwich the pyranose ring. Each of the pairs of anomeric hydroxyls and epimeric hydroxyls is recognized by a distinct Asp residue. The site for interaction with the transducer is about 18 A from the sugar-binding site. Mutation of Gly74 to Asp at this site, concomitant with considerable changes in the local ordered water structures, contributes to the lack of productive interaction with the transmembrane signal transducer.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vyas, N K -- Vyas, M N -- Quiocho, F A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Dec 2;242(4883):1290-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3057628" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Cachectin/TNF and IL-1 induced by glucose-modified proteins: role in normal tissue remodeling (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-06-10
    Beschreibung: Proteins undergo a series of nonenzymatic reactions with glucose over time to form advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs). Macrophages have a receptor that recognizes the AGE moiety and mediates the uptake and degradation of AGE proteins. This removal process is associated with the production and secretion of cachectin (tumor necrosis factor) and interleukin-1, two cytokines with diverse and seemingly paradoxical biological activities. The localized release and action of these cytokines could account for the coordinated removal and replacement of senescent extracellular matrix components in normal tissue homeostasis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vlassara, H -- Brownlee, M -- Manogue, K R -- Dinarello, C A -- Pasagian, A -- R01-AI15674/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01-AM19655/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- R01-AM33861/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jun 10;240(4858):1546-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Medical Biochemistry, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3259727" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Modulation of acetylcholine receptor desensitization by forskolin is independent of cAMP (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-06-17
    Beschreibung: Biochemical and electrophysiological studies suggest that adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent phosphorylation of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channel is functionally significant because it modifies the receptor's rate of desensitization to acetylcholine. In studies that support this conclusion researchers have used forskolin to stimulate cAMP-dependent phosphorylation in intact muscle. It is now shown that although forskolin facilitated desensitization in voltage-clamped rat muscle, this effect was not correlated with the abilities of forskolin and forskolin analogs to activate adenylate cyclase or phosphorylate the receptor. Furthermore, elevation of intracellular cAMP or addition of the catalytic subunit of A-kinase failed to alter desensitization. Therefore, in intact skeletal muscle, cAMP-dependent phosphorylation does not modulate desensitization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wagoner, P K -- Pallotta, B S -- GM32211/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jun 17;240(4859):1655-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Pharmacology, Glaxo Research Laboratories, Chapel Hill, NC 27599.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2454507" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Gramicidin, a linear polypeptide composed of hydrophobic amino acids with alternating L- and D- configurations, forms transmembrane ion channels. The crystal structure of a gramicidin-cesium complex has been determined at 2.0 angstrom resolution. In this structure, gramicidin forms a 26 angstrom long tube comprised of two polypeptide chains arranged as antiparallel beta strands that are wrapped into a left-handed helical coil with 6.4 residues per turn. The polypeptide backbone forms the interior of the hydrophilic, solvent-filled pore and the side chains form a hydrophobic and relatively regular surface on the outside of the pore. This example of a crystal structure of a solvent-filled ion pore provides a basis for understanding the physical nature of ion translocation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wallace, B A -- Ravikumar, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jul 8;241(4862):182-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Center for Biophysics, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY 12180.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2455344" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Regulation of a heart potassium channel by protein kinase A and C (1988)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-10-07
    Beschreibung: The enzymes adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A) and protein kinase C regulate the activity of a diverse group of cellular proteins including membrane ion channel proteins. When protein kinase A was stimulated in cardiac ventricular myocytes with the membrane-soluble cAMP analog 8-chlorphenylthio cAMP (8-CPT cAMP), the amplitude of the delayed-rectifier potassium current (IK) doubled when recorded at 32 degrees C but was not affected at 22 degrees C. In contrast, modulation of the calcium current (ICa) by 8-CPT cAMP was independent of temperature with similar increases in ICa occurring at both temperatures. Stimulation of protein kinase C by phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate also enhanced IK in a temperature-dependent manner but failed to increase ICa at either temperature. Thus, cardiac delayed-rectifier potassium but not calcium channels are regulated by two distinct protein kinases in a similar temperature-dependent fashion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Walsh, K B -- Kass, R S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Oct 7;242(4875):67-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, University of Rochester, School of Medicine and Dentistry, NY 14642.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2845575" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publikationsdatum: 1988-08-05
    Beschreibung: Although the proteinase inhibitor alpha-2-antiplasmin (alpha 2AP) is known to control the activity of plasmin through rapid formation of stable complexes, it also efficiently inactivates chymotrypsin. These interactions are shown to occur at adjacent, overlapping sites so that plasmin attacks the inhibitor at an Arg364-Met365 peptide bond, while chymotrypsin interacts at a Met365-Ser366 sequence one residue downstream. Thus, a naturally occurring plasma serine proteinase inhibitor can have multiple specificities through interactions at adjacent sites. It also illustrates the potential flexibility of the reactive site loop in this class of inhibitors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Potempa, J -- Shieh, B H -- Travis, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Aug 5;241(4866):699-700.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2456616" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The restriction enzyme Eco RI uses yet a different motif. Additional motifs are likely to be found as well. There is a growing understanding of some of the physical chemistry involved in protein-DNA binding, but much remains to be learned before it becomes possible to engineer a protein that binds to a specific DNA sequence.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schleif, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Sep 2;241(4870):1182-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate Department of Biochemistry, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02254.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2842864" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Comparison of nucleotide sequences indicates that the divergence of chloroplast and cytosolic GAPDH genes preceded the divergence of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In addition, some intron-exon junctions are conserved among GapB, GapC, and chicken GAPDH genes. These results provide evidence at the molecular level to support the idea that introns existed before the divergence of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shih, M C -- Heinrich, P -- Goodman, H M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 25;242(4882):1164-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3055302" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

At therapeutic concentrations, lithium diminished this muscarinic response, whereas rubidium, which does not affect phosphoinositide metabolism, had no effect. A dampening of phosphoinositide-mediated neurotransmission may explain the normalizing effects of lithium in treating both mania and depression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Worley, P F -- Heller, W A -- Snyder, S H -- Baraban, J M -- DA-00266/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- MH-18501/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH-42323/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Mar 18;239(4846):1428-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2831626" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-06-24
    Beschreibung: A specific, reversible binding site for a free amino acid is detectable on the intron of the Tetrahymena self-splicing ribosomal precursor RNA. The site selects arginine among the natural amino acids, and prefers the L- to the D-amino acid. The dissociation constant is in the millimolar range, and amino acid binding is at or in the catalytic rG splicing substrate site. Occupation of the G site by L-arginine therefore inhibits splicing by inhibiting the binding of rG, without inhibition of later reactions in the splicing reaction sequence. Arginine binding specificity seems to be directed at the side chain and the guanidino radical, and the alpha-amino and carboxyl groups are dispensable for binding. The arginine site can be placed within the G site by structural homology, with consequent implications for RNA-amino acid interaction, for the origin of the genetic code, for control of RNA activities, and for further catalytic capabilities for RNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yarus, M -- R37 GM30881/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jun 24;240(4860):1751-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder 80309.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3381099" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mitogenesis in response to PDGF and bombesin abolished by microinjection of antibody to PIP2 (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-02-05
    Beschreibung: The turnover of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is believed to constitute a crucial step in the signaling pathways for stimulation of cells by a variety of bioactive substances, including mitogens, but decisive evidence for the idea has not been obtained. In the present study, a monoclonal antibody to PIP2 was microinjected into the cytoplasm of NIH 3T3 cells before or after exposure to mitogens. The antibody completely abolished nuclear labeling with [3H]thymidine induced by platelet-derived growth factor and bombesin, but not by fibroblast growth factor, epidermal growth factor, insulin, or serum. The findings strongly suggest that PIP2 breakdown is crucial in the elicitation and sustaining of cell proliferation induced by some types of mitogens such as platelet-derived growth factor and bombesin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Matuoka, K -- Fukami, K -- Nakanishi, O -- Kawai, S -- Takenawa, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Feb 5;239(4840):640-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2829356" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Modulation of folding pathways of exported proteins by the leader sequence (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-02-26
    Beschreibung: Leader peptides that function to direct export of proteins through membranes have some common features but exhibit a remarkable sequence diversity. Thus there is some question whether leader peptides exert their function through conventional stereospecific protein-protein interaction. Here it is shown that the leader peptides retarded the folding of precursor maltose-binding protein and ribose-binding protein from Escherichia coli. This kinetic effect may be crucial in allowing precursors to enter the export pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Park, S -- Liu, G -- Topping, T B -- Cover, W H -- Randall, L L -- GM29798/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Feb 26;239(4843):1033-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biochemistry/Biophysics Program, Washington State University, Pullman 99164.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3278378" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin kills immature thymocytes by Ca2+-mediated endonuclease activation (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-10-14
    Beschreibung: Suspensions of thymocytes from young rats were incubated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), which resulted in a sustained increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration followed by DNA fragmentation and loss of cell viability. Both the Ca2+ increase and DNA fragmentation were prevented in cells treated with the inhibitor of protein synthesis, cycloheximide, and DNA fragmentation and cell killing were not detected when cells were incubated in a "Ca2+-free" medium or pretreated with high concentrations of the calcium probe, quin-2 tetraacetoxymethyl ester. These results indicate that TCDD can kill immature thymocytes by initiating a suicide process similar to that previously described for glucocorticoid hormones.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉McConkey, D J -- Hartzell, P -- Duddy, S K -- Hakansson, H -- Orrenius, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Oct 14;242(4876):256-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Toxicology, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3262923" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Highly cooperative opening of calcium channels by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-04-29
    Beschreibung: The kinetics of calcium release by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) in permeabilized rat basophilic leukemia cells were studied to obtain insight into the molecular mechanism of action of this intracellular messenger of the phosphoinositide cascade. Calcium release from intracellular storage sites was monitored with fura-2, a fluorescent indicator. The dependence of the rate of calcium release on the concentration of added IP3 in the 4 to 40 nM range showed that channel opening requires the binding of at least three molecules of IP3. Channel opening occurred in the absence of added adenosine triphosphate, indicating that IP3 acts directly on the channel or on a protein that gates it. The channels were opened by IP3 in less than 4 seconds. The highly cooperative opening of calcium channels by nanomolar concentrations of IP3 enables cells to detect and amplify very small changes in the concentration of this messenger in response to hormonal, sensory, and growth control stimuli.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meyer, T -- Holowka, D -- Stryer, L -- AI22449/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM24032/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM30387/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Apr 29;240(4852):653-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, Sherman Fairchild Center, Stanford University School of Medicine, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2452482" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The DNA-binding properties of the major regulatory protein alpha 4 of herpes simplex viruses (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-03-25
    Beschreibung: The transition from the expression of alpha, the first set of five herpes simplex virus genes expressed after infection, to beta and gamma genes, expressed later in infection, requires the participation of infected cell protein 4 (alpha 4), the major viral regulatory protein. The alpha 4 protein is present in complexes formed by proteins extracted from infected cells and viral DNA fragments derived from promoter domains. This report shows that the alpha 4 protein forms specific complexes with DNA fragments derived from 5' transcribed noncoding domains of late (gamma 2) genes whose expression requires viral DNA synthesis as well as functional alpha 4 protein. Some of the DNA fragments to which alpha 4 binds do not contain homologs of the previously reported DNA binding site consensus sequence, suggesting that alpha 4 may recognize and interact with more than one type of DNA binding site. The alpha 4 proteins can bind to DNA directly. A posttranslationally modified form of the alpha 4 protein designated alpha 4c differs from the alpha 4a and alpha 4b forms with respect to its affinity for DNA fragments differing in the nucleotide sequences of the binding sites.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Michael, N -- Spector, D -- Mavromara-Nazos, P -- Kristie, T M -- Roizman, B -- AI124009/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA08494/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA19264/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Mar 25;239(4847):1531-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Marjorie B.

    Kaposi's sarcoma cells: long-term culture with growth factor from retrovirus-infected CD4+ T cells (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-10-21
    Beschreibung: Studies of the biology and pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) have been hampered by the inability to maintain long-term cultures of KS cells in vitro. In this study AIDS-KS-derived cells with characteristic spindle-like morphology were cultured with a growth factor (or factors) released by CD4+ T lymphocytes infected with human T-lymphotropic virus type I or II (HTLV-I or HTLV-II) or with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 or 2 (HIV-1 or HIV-2). Medium conditioned by HTLV-II-infected, transformed lines of T cells (HTLV-II CM) contained large amounts of this growth activity and also supported the temporary growth of normal vascular endothelial cells, but not fibroblasts. Interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha stimulated the growth of the KS-derived cells, but the growth was only transient and these could be distinguished from that in HTLV-II CM. Other known endothelial cell growth promoting factors, such as acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors and epidermal growth factor, did not support the long-term growth of the AIDS-KS cells. The factor released by CD4+ T cells infected with human retroviruses should prove useful in studies of the pathogenesis of KS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nakamura, S -- Salahuddin, S Z -- Biberfeld, P -- Ensoli, B -- Markham, P D -- Wong-Staal, F -- Gallo, R C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Oct 21;242(4877):426-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Tumor Cell Biology, National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3262925" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Ovothiol replaces glutathione peroxidase as a hydrogen peroxide scavenger in sea urchin eggs (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Publikationsdatum: 1988-11-11
    Beschreibung: Despite its potential toxicity, H2O2 is used as an extracellular oxidant by Stronglylocentrotus purpuratus eggs to cross-link their fertilization envelopes. These eggs contain 5 mM 1-methyl-N alpha,N alpha-dimethyl-4-mercaptohistidine (ovothiol C), which reacts with H2O2. In consuming H2O2 and being reduced by glutathione, ovothiol acts as a glutathione peroxidase and replaces the function of the enzyme in eggs. The ovothiol system is more effective than egg catalase in destroying H2O2 at concentrations produced during fertilization and constitutes a principal mechanism for preventing oxidative damage at fertilization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Turner, E -- Hager, L J -- Shapiro, B M -- GM23910/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 11;242(4880):939-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Washington, Seattle 98195.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3187533" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A specific, highly active malate dehydrogenase by redesign of a lactate dehydrogenase framework (1988)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-12-16
    Beschreibung: Three variations to the structure of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent L-lactate dehydrogenase from Bacillus stearothermophilus were made to try to change the substrate specificity from lactate to malate: Asp197----Asn, Thr246----Gly, and Gln102----Arg). Each modification shifts the specificity from lactate to malate, although only the last (Gln102----Arg) provides an effective and highly specific catalyst for the new substrate. This synthetic enzyme has a ratio of catalytic rate (kcat) to Michaelis constant (Km) for oxaloacetate of 4.2 x 10(6)M-1 s-1, equal to that of native lactate dehydrogenase for its natural substrate, pyruvate, and a maximum velocity (250 s-1), which is double that reported for a natural malate dehydrogenase from B. stearothermophilus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wilks, H M -- Hart, K W -- Feeney, R -- Dunn, C R -- Muirhead, H -- Chia, W N -- Barstow, D A -- Atkinson, T -- Clarke, A R -- Holbrook, J J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Dec 16;242(4885):1541-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Bristol, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3201242" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Putative melatonin receptors in a human biological clock (1988)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-10-07
    Beschreibung: In vitro autoradiography with 125I-labeled melatonin was used to examine melatonin binding sites in human hypothalamus. Specific 125I-labeled melatonin binding was localized to the suprachiasmatic nuclei, the site of a putative biological clock, and was not apparent in other hypothalamic regions. Specific 125I-labeled melatonin binding was consistently found in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of hypothalami from adults and fetuses. Densitometric analysis of competition experiments with varying concentrations of melatonin showed monophasic competition curves, with comparable half-maximal inhibition values for the suprachiasmatic nuclei of adults (150 picomolar) and fetuses (110 picomolar). Micromolar concentrations of the melatonin agonist 6-chloromelatonin completely inhibited specific 125I-labeled melatonin binding, whereas the same concentrations of serotonin and norepinephrine caused only a partial reduction in specific binding. The results suggest that putative melatonin receptors are located in a human biological clock.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Reppert, S M -- Weaver, D R -- Rivkees, S A -- Stopa, E G -- HD06976/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD14427/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- U10-HD22297/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Oct 7;242(4875):78-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Developmental Chronobiology, Boston.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2845576" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inactivation and block of calcium channels by photo-released Ca2+ in dorsal root ganglion neurons (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-08-12
    Beschreibung: Calcium channels are inactivated by voltage and intracellular calcium. To study the kinetics and the mechanism of calcium-induced inactivation of calcium channels, a "caged" calcium compound, dimethoxy-nitrophen was used to photo-release about 50 microM calcium ion within 0.2 millisecond in dorsal root ganglion neurons. When divalent cations were the charge carriers, intracellular photo-release of calcium inactivated the calcium channel with an invariant rate [time constant (tau) approximately equal to 7 milliseconds]. When the monovalent cation sodium was the charge carrier, photorelease of calcium inside or outside of the cell blocked the channel rapidly (tau approximately equal to 0.4 millisecond), but the block was greater from the external side. Thus the kinetics of calcium-induced calcium channel inactivation depends on the valency of the permeant cation. The data imply that calcium channels exist in either of two conformational states, the calcium- and sodium-permeant forms, or, alternatively, calcium-induced inactivation occurs at a site closely associated with the internal permeating site.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Morad, M -- Davies, N W -- Kaplan, J H -- Lux, H D -- R01 HL-16152/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Aug 12;241(4867):842-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉University of Pennsylvania, Department of Physiology, Philadelphia 19104-6085.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2457253" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Progesterone (PRE) or glucocorticoid receptor (GRE) DNA binding sites are often found clustered with binding sites for other transcription factors. Individual protein binding sites were tested without the influence of adjacent factors by analyzing isolated combinations of several transcription factor binding sites with PREs or GREs. All show strong synergistic effects on steroid induction. The degree of synergism is inversely related to the strength of the GRE. Thus, a steroid responsive unit can be composed of several modules that, if positioned correctly, act synergistically.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schule, R -- Muller, M -- Kaltschmidt, C -- Renkawitz, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Dec 9;242(4884):1418-20.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Max-Planck Institut fur Biochemie, Martinsried, Federal Republic of Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3201230" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Induction of manganous superoxide dismutase by tumor necrosis factor: possible protective mechanism (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-11-11
    Beschreibung: Manganous superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) scavenges potentially toxic superoxide radicals produced in the mitochondria. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was found to induce the messenger RNA for MnSOD, but not the mRNAs for other antioxidant or mitochondrial enzymes tested. The increase in MnSOD mRNA occurred rapidly and was blocked by actinomycin D, but not by cycloheximide. Induction of MnSOD mRNA was also observed with TNF-beta, interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha), and IL-1 beta but not with other cytokines or agents tested. TNF-alpha induced MnSOD mRNA in all cell lines and normal cells examined in vitro and in various organs of mice in vivo. These effects of TNF-alpha and IL-1 on target cells may contribute to their reported protective activity against radiation as well as their ability to induce resistance to cell killing induced by the combination of TNF-alpha and cycloheximide.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wong, G H -- Goeddel, D V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Nov 11;242(4880):941-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Genentech, San Francisco, CA 94080.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3263703" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Insights into enzyme function from studies on mutants of dihydrofolate reductase (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1988-03-04
    Beschreibung: Kinetic analysis and protein mutagenesis allow the importance of individual amino acids in ligand binding and catalysis to be assessed. A kinetic analysis has shown that the reaction catalyzed by dihydrofolate reductase is optimized with respect to product flux, which in turn is predetermined by the active-site hydrophobic surface. Protein mutagenesis has revealed that specific hydrophobic residues contribute 2 to 5 kilocalories per mole to ligand binding and catalysis. The extent to which perturbations within this active-site ensemble may affect catalysis is discussed in terms of the constraints imposed by the energy surface for the reaction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Benkovic, S J -- Fierke, C A -- Naylor, A M -- GM24129/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Mar 4;239(4844):1105-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Pennsylvania State University, University Park 16802.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3125607" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: The interaction between receptors and guanine nucleotide binding (G) proteins leads to G protein activation and subsequent regulation of effector enzymes. The molecular basis of receptor-G protein interaction has been examined by using the ability of the G protein from rods (transducin) to cause a conformational change in rhodopsin as an assay. Synthetic peptides corresponding to two regions near the carboxyl terminus of the G protein alpha subunit, Glu311-Val328 and Ile340-Phe350, compete with G protein for interaction with rhodopsin. Amino acid substitution studies show that Cys321 is required for this effect. Ile340-Phe350 and a modified peptide, acetyl-Glu311-Lys329-amide, mimic G protein effects on rhodopsin conformation, showing that these peptides bind to and stabilize the activated conformation of rhodopsin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hamm, H E -- Deretic, D -- Arendt, A -- Hargrave, P A -- Koenig, B -- Hofmann, K P -- EY06062/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- EY06225/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- RP05369/PHS HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Aug 12;241(4867):832-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Illinois College of Medicine, Chicago 60680.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3136547" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
