  • ZNF354C Is a Transcriptional Repressor That Inhibits Endothelial Angiogenic Sprouting James A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN ZNF354C is a transcriptional repressor that inhibits endothelial angiogenic sprouting James A. Oo1,3, Barnabas Irmer1, Stefan Günther2, Timothy Warwick1, Katalin Pálf1, Judit Izquierdo Ponce1, Tom Teichmann1, Beatrice Pfüger‑Müller1,3, Ralf Gilsbach1,3, Ralf P. Brandes1,3 & Matthias S. Leisegang1,3* Zinc fnger proteins (ZNF) are a large group of transcription factors with diverse functions. We recently discovered that endothelial cells harbour a specifc mechanism to limit the action of ZNF354C, whose function in endothelial cells is unknown. Given that ZNF354C has so far only been studied in bone and tumour, its function was determined in endothelial cells. ZNF354C is expressed in vascular cells and localises to the nucleus and cytoplasm. Overexpression of ZNF354C in human endothelial cells results in a marked inhibition of endothelial sprouting. RNA‑sequencing of human microvascular endothelial cells with and without overexpression of ZNF354C revealed that the protein is a potent transcriptional repressor. ZNF354C contains an active KRAB domain which mediates this suppression as shown by mutagenesis analysis. ZNF354C interacts with dsDNA, TRIM28 and histones, as observed by proximity ligation and immunoprecipitation. Moreover, chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that the ZNF binds to specifc endothelial‑relevant target‑gene promoters. ZNF354C suppresses these genes as shown by CRISPR/Cas knockout and RNAi. Inhibition of endothelial sprouting by ZNF354C is dependent on the amino acids DV and MLE of the KRAB domain. These results demonstrate that ZNF354C is a repressive transcription factor which acts through a KRAB domain to inhibit endothelial angiogenic sprouting. Te vascular system is controlled by numerous signaling pathways and growth factors which all contribute to the regulation of gene expression.

In mice fed with a high fat diet (HFD) we analysed the expression of synaptic plasticity-related genes and the activation of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB)-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) signalling. We found that a HFD inhibited both CREB phosphorylation and the expression of a set of CREB target genes in the hippocampus. The intranasal administration of neural stem cell (NSC)-derived exosomes (exo-NSC) epigenetically restored the transcription of Bdnf, nNOS, Sirt1, Egr3, and RelA genes by inducing the recruitment of CREB on their regulatory sequences. Finally, exo-NSC administration rescued both BDNF signalling and memory in HFD mice. Collectively, our findings highlight novel mechanisms underlying HFD-related memory impairment and provide evidence of the potential therapeutic effect of exo-NSC against metabolic disease-related cognitive decline.

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.

M.S., Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Wright State University, 2007 Differential effect of TAp63γ mutants on transactivation of p53 and/or p63 responsive genes and their effects on global gene expression. p63, a member of the p53 gene family, known to play a role in development, has more recently also been implicated in cancer progression. Mice lacking p63 exhibit severe developmental defects such as limb truncations, abnormal skin, and absence of hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands. Germline missense mutations of p63 have been shown to be responsible for several human developmental syndromes including SHFM, EEC and ADULT syndromes and are associated with anomalies in the development of organs of epithelial origin.

  • Promiscuity and Specificity of Eukaryotic Glycosyltransferases
    Biochemical Society Transactions (2020) 48 891–900 https://doi.org/10.1042/BST20190651 Review Article Promiscuity and specificity of eukaryotic glycosyltransferases Ansuman Biswas and Mukund Thattai Simons Centre for the Study of Living Machines, National Centre for Biological Sciences, TIFR, Bangalore, India Correspondence: Mukund Thattai ([email protected]) Glycosyltransferases are a large family of enzymes responsible for covalently linking sugar monosaccharides to a variety of organic substrates. These enzymes drive the synthesis of complex oligosaccharides known as glycans, which play key roles in inter-cellular interac- tions across all the kingdoms of life; they also catalyze sugar attachment during the syn- thesis of small-molecule metabolites such as plant flavonoids. A given glycosyltransferase enzyme is typically responsible for attaching a specific donor monosaccharide, via a spe- cific glycosidic linkage, to a specific moiety on the acceptor substrate. However these enzymes are often promiscuous, able catalyze linkages between a variety of donors and acceptors. In this review we discuss distinct classes of glycosyltransferase promiscuity, each illustrated by enzymatic examples from small-molecule or glycan synthesis. We high- light the physical causes of promiscuity, and its biochemical consequences. Structural studies of glycosyltransferases involved in glycan synthesis show that they make specific contacts with ‘recognition motifs’ that are much smaller than the full oligosaccharide sub- strate. There is a wide range in the sizes of glycosyltransferase recognition motifs: highly promiscuous enzymes recognize monosaccharide or disaccharide motifs across multiple oligosaccharides, while highly specific enzymes recognize large, complex motifs found on few oligosaccharides. In eukaryotes, the localization of glycosyltransferases within compartments of the Golgi apparatus may play a role in mitigating the glycan variability caused by enzyme promiscuity.

  • 20P Deletions FTNW
    20p deletions rarechromo.org Deletions from chromosome 20p A chromosome 20p deletion is a rare genetic condition caused by the loss of material from one of the body’s 46 chromosomes. The material has been lost from the short arm (the top part in the diagram on the next page) of chromosome 20. Chromosomes are the structures in the nucleus of the body’s cells that carry the genetic information that controls development and function. In total every human individual normally has 46 chromosomes. Of these, two are a pair of sex chromosomes, XX (a pair of X chromosomes) in females and XY (one X chromosome and one Y chromosome) in males. The remaining 44 chromosomes are grouped in pairs. One chromosome from each pair is inherited from the mother while the other one is inherited from the father. Each chromosome has a short arm (called p) and a long arm (called q). Chromosome 20 is one of the smallest chromosomes in man. At present it is known to contain 737 genes out of the total of 20,000 to 25,000 genes in the human genome. You can’t see chromosomes with the naked eye, but if you stain them and magnify their image enough - about 850 times - you can see that each one has a distinctive pattern of light and dark bands. The diagram on the next page shows the bands of chromosome 20. These bands are numbered outwards starting from the point where the short and long arms meet (the centromere ). A low number, as in p11 in the short arm, is close to the centromere.

  • In Vitro Analysis of Mutations Causing Myoclonus Epilepsy with Ragged-Red Fibers in the Mitochondrial Trnalys Gene: Two Genotypes Produce Similar Phenotypes JUDY P
    MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR BIOLOGY, May 1995, p. 2872–2881 Vol. 15, No. 5 0270-7306/95/$04.0010 Copyright q 1995, American Society for Microbiology In Vitro Analysis of Mutations Causing Myoclonus Epilepsy with Ragged-Red Fibers in the Mitochondrial tRNALys Gene: Two Genotypes Produce Similar Phenotypes JUDY P. MASUCCI,1 MERCY DAVIDSON,2 YASUTOSHI KOGA,2† 1,2 2 ERIC A. SCHON, AND MICHAEL P. KING * Departments of Genetics and Development1 and Neurology,2 Columbia University, New York, New York 10032 Received 6 December 1994/Returned for modification 20 January 1995/Accepted 20 February 1995 Cytoplasts from patients with myoclonus epilepsy with ragged-red fibers harboring a pathogenic point mutation at either nucleotide 8344 or 8356 in the human mitochondrial tRNALys gene were fused with human cells lacking endogenous mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). For each mutation, cytoplasmic hybrid (cybrid) cell lines containing 0 or 100% mutated mtDNAs were isolated and their genetic, biochemical, and morphological characteristics were examined. Both mutations resulted in the same biochemical and molecular genetic phenotypes. Specifically, cybrids containing 100% mutated mtDNAs, but not those containing the correspond- ing wild-type mtDNAs, exhibited severe defects in respiratory chain activity, in the rates of protein synthesis, and in the steady-state levels of mitochondrial translation products. In addition, aberrant mitochondrial translation products were detected with both mutations. No significant alterations were observed in the processing of polycistronic RNA precursor transcripts derived from the region containing the tRNALys gene. These results demonstrate that two different mtDNA mutations in tRNALys, both associated with the same mitochondrial disorder, result in fundamentally identical defects at the cellular level and strongly suggest that specific protein synthesis abnormalities contribute to the pathogenesis of myoclonus epilepsy with ragged-red fibers.
