RPLP0 Rabbit Pab Leader in Biomolecular Solutions for Life Science RPLP0 Rabbit pAb Catalog No.: A13633 Basic Information Background Catalog No. Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, consist of a small 40S subunit A13633 and a large 60S subunit. Together these subunits are composed of 4 RNA species and approximately 80 structurally distinct proteins. This gene encodes a ribosomal protein Observed MW that is a component of the 60S subunit. The protein, which is the functional equivalent of 37kDa the E. coli L10 ribosomal protein, belongs to the L10P family of ribosomal proteins. It is a neutral phosphoprotein with a C-terminal end that is nearly identical to the C-terminal Calculated MW ends of the acidic ribosomal phosphoproteins P1 and P2. The P0 protein can interact 27kDa/34kDa with P1 and P2 to form a pentameric complex consisting of P1 and P2 dimers, and a P0 monomer. The protein is located in the cytoplasm. Transcript variants derived from Category alternative splicing exist; they encode the same protein. As is typical for genes encoding ribosomal proteins, there are multiple processed pseudogenes of this gene dispersed Primary antibody through the genome.

NIH-PA Author ManuscriptPublished NIH-PA Author Manuscript in final edited NIH-PA Author Manuscript form as: Mitochondrion. 2008 June ; 8(3): 254±261. The effect of mutated mitochondrial ribosomal proteins S16 and S22 on the assembly of the small and large ribosomal subunits in human mitochondria Md. Emdadul Haque1, Domenick Grasso1,2, Chaya Miller3, Linda L Spremulli1, and Ann Saada3,# 1 Department of Chemistry, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC-27599-3290 3 Metabolic Disease Unit, Hadassah Medical Center, P.O.B. 12000, 91120 Jerusalem, Israel Abstract Mutations in mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal proteins MRPS16 or MRPS22 cause severe, fatal respiratory chain dysfunction due to impaired translation of mitochondrial mRNAs. The loss of either MRPS16 or MRPS22 was accompanied by the loss of most of another small subunit protein MRPS11. However, MRPS2 was reduced only about 2-fold in patient fibroblasts. This observation suggests that the small ribosomal subunit is only partially able to assemble in these patients. Two large subunit ribosomal proteins, MRPL13 and MRPL15, were present in substantial amounts suggesting that the large ribosomal subunit is still present despite a nonfunctional small subunit. Keywords Mitochondria; ribosome; ribosomal subunit; respiratory chain complexes; ribosomal proteins 1. Introduction The 16.5 kb human mitochondrial genome encodes 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs and thirteen polypeptides. These proteins, which are inserted into the inner membrane and assembled with nuclearly encoded polypeptides, are essential components of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes (MRC) I, III, IV and V.

  • Tissue-Based Microarray Expression of Genes Predictive of Metastasis in Uveal Melanoma and Differentially Expressed in Metastatic Uveal Melanoma
    Original Article Tissue-Based Microarray Expression of Genes Predictive of Metastasis in Uveal Melanoma and Differentially Expressed in Metastatic Uveal Melanoma Hakan Demirci, MD; David Reed, PhD; Victor M. Elner, MD, PhD Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, W.K. Kellogg Eye Center, University of Michigan, MI, USA Purpose: To screen the microarray expression of CDH1, ECM1, EIF1B, FXR1, HTR2B, ID2, LMCD1, LTA4H, MTUS1, RAB31, ROBO1, and SATB1 genes which are predictive of primary uveal melanoma metastasis, and NFKB2, PTPN18, MTSS1, GADD45B, SNCG, HHIP, IL12B, CDK4, RPLP0, RPS17, RPS12 genes that are differentially expressed in metastatic uveal melanoma in normal whole human blood and tissues prone to metastatic involvement by uveal melanoma. Methods: We screened the GeneNote and GNF BioGPS databases for microarray analysis of genes predictive of primary uveal melanoma metastasis and those differentially expressed in metastatic uveal melanoma in normal whole blood, liver, lung and skin. Results: Microarray analysis showed expression of all 22 genes in normal whole blood, liver, lung and skin, which are the most common sites of metastases. In the GNF BioGPS database, data for expression of the HHIP gene in normal whole blood and skin was not complete. Conclusions: Microarray analysis of genes predicting systemic metastasis of uveal melanoma and genes differentially expressed in metastatic uveal melanoma may not be used as a biomarker for metastasis in whole blood, liver, lung, and skin. Their expression in tissues prone to metastasis may suggest that they play a role in tropism of uveal melanoma metastasis to these tissues.

  • Micrornas Mediated Regulation of the Ribosomal Proteins and Its Consequences on the Global Translation of Proteins

Not all RPs are indispensable; in other words, the ribosome could be functional and could continue the translation of proteins instead of lacking in some of the RPs. However, the lack of many RPs could result in severe defects in the biogenesis of ribosomes, which could directly influence the overall translation processes and global expression of the proteins leading to the emergence of different diseases including cancer. While microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs and one of the potent regulators of the post-transcriptional 0 gene expression, miRNAs regulate gene expression by targeting the 3 untranslated region and/or coding region of the messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and by interacting with the 50 untranslated region, Citation: Reza, A.M.M.T.; Yuan, Y.-G.

  • Patterns of Ribosomal Protein Expression Specify Normal and Malignant Human Cells Joao C
    Guimaraes and Zavolan Genome Biology (2016) 17:236 DOI 10.1186/s13059-016-1104-z RESEARCH Open Access Patterns of ribosomal protein expression specify normal and malignant human cells Joao C. Guimaraes* and Mihaela Zavolan* Abstract Background: Ribosomes are highly conserved molecular machines whose core composition has traditionally been regarded as invariant. However, recent studies have reported intriguing differences in the expression of some ribosomal proteins (RPs) across tissues and highly specific effects on the translation of individual mRNAs. Results: To determine whether RPs are more generally linked to cell identity, we analyze the heterogeneity of RP expression in a large set of human tissues, primary cells, and tumors. We find that about a quarter of human RPs exhibit tissue-specific expression and that primary hematopoietic cells display the most complex patterns of RP expression, likely shaped by context-restricted transcriptional regulators. Strikingly, we uncover patterns of dysregulated expression of individual RPs across cancer types that arise through copy number variations and are predictive for disease progression. Conclusions: Our study reveals an unanticipated plasticity of RP expression across normal and malignant human cell types and provides a foundation for future characterization of cellular behaviors that are orchestrated by specific RPs.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Neonatal sepsis is one of the most prevalent causes of death of the neonates. However, the mechanisms underlying neonatal sepsis remained unclear. The present study identified a total of 1128 upregulated mRNAs and 1008 downregulated mRNAs, 28 upregulated lncRNAs, and 61 downregulated lncRNAs in neonatal sepsis. Then, we constructed PPI networks to identify key regulators in neonatal sepsis, including ITGAM, ITGAX, TLR4, ITGB2, SRC, ELANE, RPLP0, RPS28, RPL26, and RPL27. lncRNA coexpression analysis showed HS.294603, LOC391811, C12ORF47, LOC729021, HS.546375, HNRPA1L-2, LOC158345, and HS.495041 played important roles in the progression of neonatal sepsis.

  • Inhibition of the MID1 Protein Complex
    Matthes et al. Cell Death Discovery (2018) 4:4 DOI 10.1038/s41420-017-0003-8 Cell Death Discovery ARTICLE Open Access Inhibition of the MID1 protein complex: a novel approach targeting APP protein synthesis Frank Matthes1,MoritzM.Hettich1, Judith Schilling1, Diana Flores-Dominguez1, Nelli Blank1, Thomas Wiglenda2, Alexander Buntru2,HannaWolf1, Stephanie Weber1,InaVorberg 1, Alina Dagane2, Gunnar Dittmar2,3,ErichWanker2, Dan Ehninger1 and Sybille Krauss1 Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by two neuropathological hallmarks: senile plaques, which are composed of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides, and neurofibrillary tangles, which are composed of hyperphosphorylated tau protein. Aβ peptides are derived from sequential proteolytic cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). In this study, we identified a so far unknown mode of regulation of APP protein synthesis involving the MID1 protein complex: MID1 binds to and regulates the translation of APP mRNA. The underlying mode of action of MID1 involves the mTOR pathway. Thus, inhibition of the MID1 complex reduces the APP protein level in cultures of primary neurons. Based on this, we used one compound that we discovered previously to interfere with the MID1 complex, metformin, for in vivo experiments. Indeed, long-term treatment with metformin decreased APP protein expression levels and consequently Aβ in an AD mouse model. Importantly, we have initiated the metformin treatment late in life, at a time-point where mice were in an already progressed state of the disease, and could observe an improved behavioral phenotype. These 1234567890 1234567890 findings together with our previous observation, showing that inhibition of the MID1 complex by metformin also decreases tau phosphorylation, make the MID1 complex a particularly interesting drug target for treating AD.

  • Lncrna SNHG8 Is Identified As a Key Regulator of Acute Myocardial
    Zhuo et al. Lipids in Health and Disease (2019) 18:201 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12944-019-1142-0 RESEARCH Open Access LncRNA SNHG8 is identified as a key regulator of acute myocardial infarction by RNA-seq analysis Liu-An Zhuo, Yi-Tao Wen, Yong Wang, Zhi-Fang Liang, Gang Wu, Mei-Dan Nong and Liu Miao* Abstract Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in numerous physiological functions. However, their mechanisms in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are not well understood. Methods: We performed an RNA-seq analysis to explore the molecular mechanism of AMI by constructing a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA axis based on the ceRNA hypothesis. The target microRNA data were used to design a global AMI triple network. Thereafter, a functional enrichment analysis and clustering topological analyses were conducted by using the triple network. The expression of lncRNA SNHG8, SOCS3 and ICAM1 was measured by qRT-PCR. The prognostic values of lncRNA SNHG8, SOCS3 and ICAM1 were evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: An AMI lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was constructed that included two mRNAs, one miRNA and one lncRNA. After RT-PCR validation of lncRNA SNHG8, SOCS3 and ICAM1 between the AMI and normal samples, only lncRNA SNHG8 had significant diagnostic value for further analysis. The ROC curve showed that SNHG8 presented an AUC of 0.850, while the AUC of SOCS3 was 0.633 and that of ICAM1 was 0.594. After a pairwise comparison, we found that SNHG8 was statistically significant (P SNHG8-ICAM1 = 0.002; P SNHG8-SOCS3 = 0.031).
