The digital figures contain only original data and no modification was added. There are altogether 5 identical copies of my dissertation. __________________________ Jing Chen I Referee: Prof. Dr. Katrin Marcus Co-referee: Dr. Dirk Wolters II Acknowledgement I would like to express my deep and sincere gratitude to Prof. Dr. Katrin Marcus, director of the Medizinische Proteom-Center, for her friendly invitation to the working group, for the great opportunity working in the interesting research field, for her dedication in supervising of my project execution and her unconditional help at the end of my Ph.D. I am very grateful to Dr. Dirk Wolters for his kind acceptance of attending and co- judging my dissertation. I owe my sincere gratitude to Dr. Stefan Helling, for his outstanding mentoring to this work. His valuable advice is deciding. Hadn’t for his endeavor in discussing and clearing my confusion at all times, I wouldn’t have managed to accomplish the work. I know Prof. Dr. Börje Sellergren, my collaboration partner at biomedical science in Malmö University, Sweden the longest. It was he who recommended me to work in MPC as a Ph.D candidate. I want to express my sincere gratitute to him for his constructive suggestions thoughout my Ph.D study. Dr. Sudhirkumar Shinde from Malmö University was very kind and helpful at work too. I want to thank him for the intensive discussion and his polymer material synthesis and characterization. Prabal Subedi contributed a lot in my research results discussion and dissertation correction. Kathy Pfeiffer performed many Western blotting for me. I am deeply grateful that she helped me so much during the stressful thesis-writing phase. I also want to thank Thilo Lerari, Sara Galozzi, Katalin Barkovits, Sarah Plum, Markus- Hermann Koch, Maike Ahrens, Caroline May, Jale Stoutjesdijk, Kathrin Barlog and all other MPC colleagues for reliable and whole-hearted assistance in my research, all Marie Curie PEPMIP members, for the discussions at project meetings and conferences. I thank Prof. Karl Mechtler from the Institute of Molecular Pathology (Vienna, Austria) and Mr. Ingo Feldmann from ISAS (Dortmund, Germany) for providing self- synthesized peptides, Rejko Krüger from Hertie-Institute for Clinical Brain Research at University Tuebingen for providing mouse brain and cell line sample material and David Just for his assistance raising cells in the cell culture. III In the end, I’d like to thank my beloved parents far away in China with all my heart. After years of striving in Germany I finally come this far. Without their support I couldn’t have made it. My boyfriend Judong Yang has been with me all these years by my side and supporting me so much from all aspects of life. Without him I am nowhere. I am truely grateful to have him experiencing those ups and downs in life together with me. IV Content Table 1.

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.

Myotubes are multi-nucleated fibers containing a functional unit composed of cytoskeletal proteins called the sarcomere. The specific arrangement of these proteins in the sarcomere works to contract and relax muscles. During embryonic and post-embryonic development, fluctuations in expression of growth factors throughout the program account for the dramatic structural changes from cell to mature muscle fiber. In vivo, these growth factors are strictly spatiotemporally regulated according to a ‘myogenic program.’ In order to assess the dynamics of protein expression throughout this program, we conducted a time course study using the mouse myoblast cell line C2C12, in which cells were allowed to differentiate and insoluble protein fractions were collected at seven time points.

Retrovirology 2013, 10:94 http://www.retrovirology.com/content/10/1/94 RESEARCH Open Access Interactions between HIV-1 Vif and human ElonginB-ElonginC are important for CBF-β binding to Vif Xiaodan Wang1, Xiaoying Wang1, Haihong Zhang1, Mingyu Lv1, Tao Zuo1, Hui Wu1, Jiawen Wang1, Donglai Liu1, Chu Wang1, Jingyao Zhang1,XuLi1, Jiaxin Wu1, Bin Yu1, Wei Kong1,2* and Xianghui Yu1,2* Abstract Background: The HIV-1 accessory factor Vif is necessary for efficient viral infection in non-permissive cells. Vif antagonizes the antiviral activity of human cytidine deaminase APOBEC3 proteins that confer the non-permissive phenotype by tethering them (APOBEC3DE/3F/3G) to the Vif-CBF-β-ElonginB-ElonginC-Cullin5-Rbx (Vif-CBF-β-EloB- EloC-Cul5-Rbx) E3 complex to induce their proteasomal degradation. EloB and EloC were initially reported as positive regulatory subunits of the Elongin (SIII) complex. Thereafter, EloB and EloC were found to be components of Cul-E3 complexes, contributing to proteasomal degradation of specific substrates. CBF-β is a newly identified key regulator of Vif function, and more information is needed to further clarify its regulatory mechanism. Here, we comprehensively investigated the functions of EloB (together with EloC) in the Vif-CBF-β-Cul5 E3 ligase complex. Results: The results revealed that: (1) EloB (and EloC) positively affected the recruitment of CBF-β to Vif. Both knockdown of endogenous EloB and over-expression of its mutant with a 34-residue deletion in the COOH-terminal tail (EloBΔC34/EBΔC34) impaired the Vif-CBF-β interaction. (2) Introduction of both the Vif SLQ → AAA mutant (VifΔSLQ, which dramatically impairs Vif-EloB-EloC binding) and the Vif PPL → AAA mutant (VifΔPPL, which is thought to reduce Vif-EloB binding) could reduce CBF-β binding.

  • Role of the HPRG Component of Striated Muscle AMP Deaminase in the Stability and Cellular Behaviour of the Enzyme
    biomolecules Review Role of the HPRG Component of Striated Muscle AMP Deaminase in the Stability and Cellular Behaviour of the Enzyme Francesca Ronca * and Antonio Raggi Laboratory of Biochemistry, Department of Pathology, University of Pisa, via Roma 55, 56126 Pisa, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-050-2218-273; Fax: +39-050-2218-660 Received: 19 July 2018; Accepted: 20 August 2018; Published: 23 August 2018 Abstract: Multiple muscle-specific isoforms of the Zn2+ metalloenzyme AMP deaminase (AMPD) have been identified based on their biochemical and genetic differences. Our previous observations suggested that the metal binding protein histidine-proline-rich glycoprotein (HPRG) participates in the assembly and maintenance of skeletal muscle AMP deaminase (AMPD1) by acting as a zinc chaperone. The evidence of a role of millimolar-strength phosphate in stabilizing the AMPD-HPRG complex of both AMPD1 and cardiac AMP deaminase (AMPD3) is suggestive of a physiological mutual dependence between the two subunit components with regard to the stability of the two isoforms of striated muscle AMPD. The observed influence of the HPRG content on the catalytic behavior of the two enzymes further strengthens this hypothesis. Based on the preferential localization of HPRG at the sarcomeric I-band and on the presence of a Zn2+ binding motif in the N-terminal regions of fast TnT and of the AMPD1 catalytic subunit, we advance the hypothesis that the Zn binding properties of HPRG could promote the association of AMPD1 to the thin filament. Keywords: AMP deaminase (AMPD); histidine-proline-rich glycoprotein (HPRG); striated muscle; Troponin T (TnT) 1.
