It is Overexpression of α2 in developing rat brain repressed the believed to regulate both cytoplasmic dynein, a microtubule radial migration of neurons and mitotic progression of minus-end-directed motor, through direct interaction, and neuroprogenitors. By contrast, a Lis1-binding-defective point platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) Ib by mutant, α2E39D, was ineffective in the above assays. These results complexing with the catalytic subunits α1 and α2. Although α1 indicate an antagonistic effect of α1, α2 and Ndel1 for Lis1 and α2 are highly expressed in brain, their deficiencies fail to binding, probably to modulate dynein functions in vivo. They cause brain abnormality. Here, we show that overexpression of also help to explain why brain development is particularly α2 or α1 results in inactivation of dynein characterized by Golgi sensitive to a decrease in Lis1 levels. and endosome dispersion and mitotic delay. Further overexpression of Lis1 or Ndel1, a Lis1- and dynein-binding protein that is also crucial for dynein function, restored Golgi Key words: Nudel, Cytoplasmic dynein, Mitosis, Neuronal migration, and endosome distribution.

PAF-AH plasma and PAF-AH II are both monomeric Therefore, the neuronal function of Lis1 is sensitive to its dosage. polypeptides with ~41% sequence identity. By contrast, PAF-AH Why this occurs, however, is not clear. Ib is a heterotrimeric protein complex enriched in brain and testis Lis1, Nde1 (also called NudE), Ndel1 (also called Nudel for (Karasawa et al., 2003; Tjoelker and Stafforini, 2000). α1 (also NudE-like) and cytoplasmic dynein form an evolutionarily named Pafah1b3) and α2 (Pafah1b2), two homologous proteins conserved genetic pathway in eukaryotes (Wynshaw-Boris and sharing ~63% sequence identity, are catalytic subunits of PAF-AH Gambello, 2001). Cytoplasmic dynein is a microtubule (MT)-based Ib, present either in the form of heterodimers or homodimers, and minus-end-directed motor composed of two heavy chains whereas Lis1 (Pafah1b1) is the regulatory subunit (Hattori et al., (DHC) and several intermediate chains (DIC), light intermediate 1994b; Karasawa et al., 2003; Tjoelker and Stafforini, 2000). α2 chains and light chains. It is widely involved in mitosis, intracellular is ubiquitously expressed, with highest expression levels in brain, trafficking, and cell migration (Dujardin et al., 2003; Gomes et al., whereas α1 is predominantly expressed in embryonic brain 2005; Hirokawa, 1998; Hook and Vallee, 2006; Karki and Holzbaur, (Koizumi et al., 2003; Manya et al., 1998). Unlike Lis1, however, 1999). Ndel1, Nde1 and Lis1 probably serve as positive regulators neither α1- nor α2-deficient mice show apparent neurological of dynein. Lis1 binds to dynein and is involved in dynein functions defects. Instead, α2-null or double-knockout mice are sterile in mitosis (Faulkner et al., 2000; Hebbar et al., 2008; Tai et al., because of defective spermatogenesis, whereas α1-null mice have 2002) and cell migration (Dujardin et al., 2003; Tsai et al., 2007). normal fertility possibly because of functional compensation by α2 Lis1 also interacts directly with the N-terminus of Nde1 or Ndel1 (Koizumi et al., 2003; Yan et al., 2003a).

Indeed, whereas most WGA-positive vesicles were alter the stoichiometry of α-subunits and Lis1. We showed that concentrated at the MTOC in untransfected or GFP-expressing cells excess α1 or α2 can disrupt dynein activity through competitive (Fig. 1A, panels 1-2), they were dispersed in cells overexpressing interaction with Lis1 against dynein and Ndel1 in cultured GFP-α2 (Fig. 1A, panels 3-4).

Iakoucheva1 Increased risk for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is attributed to hundreds of genetic loci. The convergence of ASD variants have been investigated using various approaches, including protein interactions extracted from the published literature. However, these datasets are frequently incomplete, carry biases and are limited to interactions of a single splicing isoform, which may not be expressed in the disease-relevant tissue. Here we introduce a new interactome mapping approach by experimentally identifying interactions between brain-expressed alternatively spliced variants of ASD risk factors. The Autism Spliceform Interaction Network reveals that almost half of the detected interactions and about 30% of the newly identified interacting partners represent contribution from splicing variants, emphasizing the importance of isoform networks. Isoform interactions greatly contribute to establishing direct physical connections between proteins from the de novo autism CNVs. Our findings demonstrate the critical role of spliceform networks for translating genetic knowledge into a better understanding of human diseases.

  • PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS of HUMAN URINARY EXOSOMES. Patricia
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS OF HUMAN URINARY EXOSOMES. Patricia Amalia Gonzales Mancilla, Ph.D., 2009 Directed By: Associate Professor Nam Sun Wang, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Exosomes originate as the internal vesicles of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) in cells. These small vesicles (40-100 nm) have been shown to be secreted by most cell types throughout the body. In the kidney, urinary exosomes are released to the urine by fusion of the outer membrane of the MVBs with the apical plasma membrane of renal tubular epithelia. Exosomes contain apical membrane and cytosolic proteins and can be isolated using differential centrifugation. The analysis of urinary exosomes provides a non- invasive means of acquiring information about the physiological or pathophysiological state of renal cells. The overall objective of this research was to develop methods and knowledge infrastructure for urinary proteomics. We proposed to conduct a proteomic analysis of human urinary exosomes. The first objective was to profile the proteome of human urinary exosomes using liquid chromatography-tandem spectrometry (LC- MS/MS) and specialized software for identification of peptide sequences from fragmentation spectra. We unambiguously identified 1132 proteins. In addition, the phosphoproteome of human urinary exosomes was profiled using the neutral loss scanning acquisition mode of LC-MS/MS. The phosphoproteomic profiling identified 19 phosphorylation sites corresponding to 14 phosphoproteins. The second objective was to analyze urinary exosomes samples isolated from patients with genetic mutations. Polyclonal antibodies were generated to recognize epitopes on the gene products of these genetic mutations, NKCC2 and MRP4. The potential usefulness of urinary exosome analysis was demonstrated using the well-defined renal tubulopathy, Bartter syndrome type I and using the single nucleotide polymorphism in the ABCC4 gene.

Here, we investigate the impact of Pafah1b1 mutation on the cellular migration, morphophysiology, microcircuitry, and transcriptomics of mouse hippocampal CA1 parvalbumin-containing inhibitory interneurons (PV+INTs). We find that WT PV+INTs consist of two physiological subtypes (80% fast-spiking (FS), 20% non-fast-spiking (NFS)) and four morphological subtypes. We find that cell-autonomous mutations within interneurons disrupts morphophysiological development of PV+INTs and results in the emergence of a non-canonical ‘intermediate spiking (IS)’ subset of PV+INTs. We also find that now dominant IS/NFS cells are prone to entering depolarization block, causing them to temporarily lose the ability to initiate action potentials and control network excitation, potentially promoting seizures. Finally, single-cell nuclear RNAsequencing of PV+INTs revealed several misregulated genes related to morphogenesis, cellular excitability, and synapse formation. *For correspondence: [email protected] Competing interests: The Introduction authors declare that no Excitation in neocortical and hippocampal circuits is balanced by a relatively small (10–15%) yet competing interests exist.

Methods: Clinical examinations and cranial imaging studies were performed for all members of the family (two unaffected mem- bers and three surviving members from a total of four affected members). In addition, whole-exome sequencing analysis was per- formed for DNA from an affected patient to scan for candidate mutations, followed by Sanger sequencing to verify these candidate mutations in the entire family. A total of 200 ethnicity-matched healthy controls without neuropsychiatric disorder were also included and analyzed. Results: We identified a novel missense mutation, c.412G > A, p.(E138K), that cosegregated with the disease in exon 6 of the platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase 1b regulatory subunit 1 (PAFAH1B1) gene in the affected members; this mutation was not found in the 200 controls. Multiple sequence alignments showed that codon 138, where the mutation (c.G412A) occurred, was located within a phylogenetically conserved region.

Postmitotic neurons migrate from the ventricular zone into the cortical plate to establish neuronal lamina in an “inside-out” gradient of maturation. Here, we report that the mitotic kinase Aurora-A is critical for the regulation of microtubule organization during neuronal migration via an Aurora-A–NDEL1 pathway in the mouse. Suppression of Aurora-A activity by inhibitors or siRNA resulted in severe impairment of neuronal migration of granular neurons. In addition, in utero injection of the Aurora-A kinase-dead mutant provoked defective migra- tion of cortical neurons. Furthermore, we demonstrated that suppression of Aurora-A impaired microtubule modulation in migrating neurons. Interestingly, suppression of CDK5 by an inhibitor or siRNA reduced Aurora-A activity and NDEL1 phosphorylation by Aurora-A, which led to defective neuronal migration.

  • Molecular Dissection of Nde1's Role in Mitosis
    Molecular Dissection of Nde1’s Role in Mitosis Caitlin Lazar Wynne Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 ©2016 Caitlin Lazar Wynne All rights reserved ABSTRACT Molecular dissection of Nde1’s role in mitosis Caitlin Lazar Wynne Upon entry into G2 and mitosis (G2/M), dynein dissociates from its interphase cargos and forms mitotic-specific interactions that direct dynein to the nuclear envelope, cell-cortex, kinetochores, and spindle poles to ensure equal segregation of genetic material to the two daughter cells. Although the need for precise regulation of dynein’s activity during mitosis is clear, questions remain about the mechanisms that govern the cell-cycle dependent dynein interactions. Frequently dynein cofactors provide platforms for regulating dynein activity either by directing dynein to specific sites of action or by tuning the motor activity of the dynein motor. In particular the dynein cofactor Nde1 may play a key role in defining dynein’s mitotic activity. During interphase, Nde1 is involved in the dynein-dependent processes of Golgi positioning and minus-end directed lysosome transport (Lam et al., 2009; Yi et al., 2011), but as the cell progresses into G2/M, Nde1 adopts mitotic specific interactions at the nuclear envelope and kinetochores. It is unknown how Nde1’s cell-cycle specific localization is regulated and how, if at all, Nde1 is ultimately able to influence dynein’s recruitment and activity at each of these sites. One candidate is cell-cycle specific phosphorylation of Nde1 by a G2/mitotic specific kinase, cyclinB/Cdk1 (Alkurayaet al.
