Structure of the Mammalian 80S Initiation Complex with Initiation Factor 5B on HCV-IRES RNA
ARTICLES Structure of the mammalian 80S initiation complex with initiation factor 5B on HCV-IRES RNA Hiroshi Yamamoto1,3, Anett Unbehaun1,3, Justus Loerke1, Elmar Behrmann1, Marianne Collier1, Jörg Bürger1,2, Thorsten Mielke1,2 & Christian M T Spahn1 The universally conserved eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 5B, a translational GTPase, is essential for canonical translation initiation. It is also required for initiation facilitated by the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA. Met eIF5B promotes joining of 60S ribosomal subunits to 40S ribosomal subunits bound by initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi ). However, the exact molecular mechanism by which eIF5B acts has not been established. Here we present cryo-EM reconstructions of the Met mammalian 80S–HCV-IRES–Met-tRNAi –eIF5B–GMPPNP complex. We obtained two substates distinguished by the rotational state of the ribosomal subunits and the configuration of initiator tRNA in the peptidyl (P) site. Accordingly, a combination of Met conformational changes in the 80S ribosome and in initiator tRNA facilitates binding of the Met-tRNAi to the 60S P site and redefines the role of eIF5B as a tRNA-reorientation factor. Met Eukaryotic translation initiation is a highly regulated process within stable ribosomal binding of Met-tRNAi and elongation competence the translation cycle that proceeds via 48S and 80S initiation-complex in vivo11–13. However, the molecular mechanism linking eIF5B–GTP Met Met intermediates. At least 12 eIFs facilitate recruitment of Met-tRNAi hydrolysis and proper placement of Met-tRNAi in the ribosomal and mRNA to the ribosomal 40S subunit and regulate the interaction of P site is not known. -

Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins. -

Allele-Specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish
Allele-specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish by Ailu Chen A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 1, 2015 Keywords: catfish, interspecific hybrids, allele-specific expression, ribosomal protein Copyright 2015 by Ailu Chen Approved by Zhanjiang Liu, Chair, Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Nannan Liu, Professor, Entomology and Plant Pathology Eric Peatman, Associate Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Aaron M. Rashotte, Associate Professor, Biological Sciences Abstract Interspecific hybridization results in a vast reservoir of allelic variations, which may potentially contribute to phenotypical enhancement in the hybrids. Whether the allelic variations are related to the downstream phenotypic differences of interspecific hybrid is still an open question. The recently developed genome-wide allele-specific approaches that harness high- throughput sequencing technology allow direct quantification of allelic variations and gene expression patterns. In this work, I investigated allele-specific expression (ASE) pattern using RNA-Seq datasets generated from interspecific catfish hybrids. The objective of the study is to determine the ASE genes and pathways in which they are involved. Specifically, my study investigated ASE-SNPs, ASE-genes, parent-of-origins of ASE allele and how ASE would possibly contribute to heterosis. My data showed that ASE was operating in the interspecific catfish system. Of the 66,251 and 177,841 SNPs identified from the datasets of the liver and gill, 5,420 (8.2%) and 13,390 (7.5%) SNPs were identified as significant ASE-SNPs, respectively. -
Structure of Human Aspartyl Aminopeptidase Complexed With
Chaikuad et al. BMC Structural Biology 2012, 12:14 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6807/12/14 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Structure of human aspartyl aminopeptidase complexed with substrate analogue: insight into catalytic mechanism, substrate specificity and M18 peptidase family Apirat Chaikuad1, Ewa S Pilka1, Antonio De Riso2, Frank von Delft1, Kathryn L Kavanagh1, Catherine Vénien-Bryan2, Udo Oppermann1,3 and Wyatt W Yue1* Abstract Backround: Aspartyl aminopeptidase (DNPEP), with specificity towards an acidic amino acid at the N-terminus, is the only mammalian member among the poorly understood M18 peptidases. DNPEP has implicated roles in protein and peptide metabolism, as well as the renin-angiotensin system in blood pressure regulation. Despite previous enzyme and substrate characterization, structural details of DNPEP regarding ligand recognition and catalytic mechanism remain to be delineated. Results: The crystal structure of human DNPEP complexed with zinc and a substrate analogue aspartate-β- hydroxamate reveals a dodecameric machinery built by domain-swapped dimers, in agreement with electron microscopy data. A structural comparison with bacterial homologues identifies unifying catalytic features among the poorly understood M18 enzymes. The bound ligands in the active site also reveal the coordination mode of the binuclear zinc centre and a substrate specificity pocket for acidic amino acids. Conclusions: The DNPEP structure provides a molecular framework to understand its catalysis that is mediated by active site loop swapping, a mechanism likely adopted in other M18 and M42 metallopeptidases that form dodecameric complexes as a self-compartmentalization strategy. Small differences in the substrate binding pocket such as shape and positive charges, the latter conferred by a basic lysine residue, further provide the key to distinguishing substrate preference. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.
