Prof. Yi-Xue Li
Prof. Yi-Xue Li Professor & Leader of proposed Shanghai Institutes for Bio-Medicine Director Shanghai Center for Bioinformation Technology Vice Director Key Laboratory of Systems Biology Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences Topic: Protein phosphorylation plays an essential role in the evolution of vertebrates Abstract: Recent publications have revealed that the evolution of phosphosites are influenced by local protein structures and whether the phosphosites have characterized functions or not. With knowledge of the wide functional range of phosphorylation, we attempted to clarify whether the evolutionary conservation of phosphosites is different among distinct functional modules. We grouped the phosphosites in the human genome into modules according to the functional categories of KEGG, and we investigated their evolutionary conservation in several vertebrate genomes from mouse to zebrafish. We found that phosphosites in the basic functional modules (BFMs) such as metabolic and genetic processes, display a lower evolutionary conservation than those in the vertebrate-specific functional modules (VFMs) such as signaling processes and more complex organic systems. The phosphosites in the VFMs are also significantly more conserved than their flanking regions, but those in the BFMs are not. The above results hold for both serine/threonine and tyrosine residues, although the fraction of phosphorylated tyrosine is raised in the VFMs. Moreover, the difference in evolutionary conservation of the phosphosites cannot be explained by their difference in local protein structures, and there are also more phosphosites with known functions in the VFMs. Based on these results, we concluded that protein phosphorylation may play more dominant roles for the VFMs than the BFMs. As phosphorylation is a quite rapid biological reaction, the VFMs that quickly respond to outer stimuli and inner signals might more heavily depend on this regulatory mechanism. -

These Materials Correspond to the June 1 and June 8, 2020 Sessions
The Mandarin "Lunch and Learn 午间中文" is a free, online, weekly 'Read-Aloud' series for Chinese language learners of all levels. The series helps individuals learn and practice pronunciation in Mandarin, while engaging with Chinese literature, culture and history with fellow enthusiasts. Participants will enjoy live interactions with our language and cultural experts from home. The full playlist of Lunch and Learn sessions are available on YouTube. These materials correspond to the June 1 and June 8, 2020 sessions. Guan-guan Go the Ospreys, the Book of Songs 《关雎∙诗经》 If you like learning Chinese language, literature, or particularly Chinese poetry, you have to know the Book of Songs(《诗经》), the fountainhead of Chinese literature, a collection of 305 poems, the finest form at the time and even today in Chinese language, compiled by Confucius, who lived from 551 to 479 B.C. For over 2,000 years, educated men and women in Chinese culture must, at some point, read the poems in the Book of Songs. Guan-guan Go the Ospreys(《关雎》)is the very first poem in the Book of Songs. In addition to its literary importance, many phrases and cultural references in this short poem, such as “窈窕淑女”, “求之不得”, “悠哉悠哉”, “辗转反侧” are still commonly used in modern Chinese. The poem is also one of the earliest documents referring to the important role of music in Chinese tradition. The selected English translation is by James Legge, a Scottish sinologist, missionary, and scholar, best known as an early and prolific translator of Classical Chinese texts into English. He was the first Professor of Chinese at Oxford University (1876–1897). -

Ideophones in Middle Chinese

Ideophones are defined as a set of words that are phonologically and morphologically marked and depict some form of sensory image (Dingemanse 2011b). Middle Chinese has a large body of ideophones, whose domains range from the depiction of sound, movement, visual and other external senses to the depiction of internal senses (cf. Dingemanse 2012a). There is some work on modern variants of Sinitic languages (cf. Mok 2001; Bodomo 2006; de Sousa 2008; de Sousa 2011; Meng 2012; Wu 2014), but so far, there is no encompassing study of ideophones of a stage in the historical development of Sinitic languages. The purpose of this study is to develop a descriptive model for ideophones in Middle Chinese, which is compatible with what we know about them cross-linguistically. The main research question of this study is “what are the phonological, morphological, semantic and syntactic features of ideophones in Middle Chinese?” This question is studied in terms of three parameters, viz. the parameters of form, of meaning and of use. -
IUSSP Laureate Nomination Letter for ZENG Yi
IUSSP Laureate Nomination letter for ZENG Yi We are pleased to nominate Professor Yi Zeng for his outstanding contributions to the advancement of population sciences and distinguished services rendered to the community of scholars in population sciences in general and IUSSP in particular. Yi Zeng’s contributions to the advancement of population science may be grouped into two categories: (a) research and (b) capacity building and institution building. In addition, we highlight service rendered to the IUSSP (section c). Yi Zeng’s contributions and service to the IUSSP and the scientific community at large have been acknowledged widely. A brief account of the recognition is offered in section d. a. Research During his professional career, Yi Zeng developed a research focus on healthy aging and family and household demography. In important ways, he shaped two areas that are central to population sciences. a.1 Healthy aging In 1998, he and colleagues in China, Europe and the United States launched the ground- breaking Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Study (CLHLS). The objective was to develop a knowledge base for enhancing the wellbeing and quality of life of elderly in China and worldwide. China was aging at an extraordinary pace and had the largest number of elderly persons in the world. The CLHLS was and is the largest longitudinal study of the oldest-old aged 80+ (with compatible young-old aged 65-79) in the world. Several innovative features were introduced to disentangle the effects of socioeconomic and behavioral/lifestyle factors, social support, environmental factors, genetics and genetics-environment interactions on healthy longevity. -

Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd | Journal of Cell Science (2020) 133, jcs246173. doi:10.1242/jcs.246173 FIRST PERSON First person – Yi Liu First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Yi Liu is first author on ‘Direct interaction between CEP85 and STIL mediates PLK4-driven directed cell migration’, published in JCS. Yi conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Dr Laurence Pelletier’s lab at Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, University of Toronto, Canada. He is now a Postdoc in the lab of Dr Rudolf Jaenisch at Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, MIT, USA, where he uses stem cells to study complex human brain disorders. How would you explain the main findings of your paper in lay terms? Metastasis is of paramount importance in the prognosis of cancer patients. Malignant cancer cells acquire the motile ability to invade the surrounding tissues and penetrate the vascular circulation to produce secondary tumors, which is the major cause of mortality of most cancer patients. The PLK4 gene has recently been proposed as a prime target for cancer therapeutics since its upregulation has a great impact on cancer metastasis. Hence, our work aims to characterize the molecular basis of PLK4-driven cancer cell motility. We found that CEP85 and STIL proteins form a complex that regulates PLK4 activity and thereby Yi Liu plays a critical role in cancer cell migration. Molecularly, this complex was shown to modulate the organization of actin, a major type of Why did you choose Journal of Cell Science for your paper? cytoskeleton that controls cell motility. -
