Fine Specificity of Ligand-Binding Domain 1 in the Polymeric Ig Receptor: Importance of the CDR2-Containing Region for IgM Interaction1 Målfrid Røe, Inger N. Norderhaug, Per Brandtzaeg, and Finn-Eirik Johansen2 The human polymeric Ig receptor (pIgR), also called transmembrane secretory component, is expressed basolaterally on exocrine epithelia, and mediates specific external transport of dimeric IgA and pentameric IgM. The extracellular part of pIgR consists of five Ig-like domains (D1-D5), and a highly conserved D1 region appears to mediate the initial noncovalent ligand interaction. While the human pIgR binds both dimeric IgA and pentameric IgM with high affinity, the rabbit counterpart has virtually no binding capacity for pentameric IgM. This remarkable disparity constitutes evidence that the binding site of the two ligands differs with regard to essential receptor contact elements. Therefore, we expressed human/rabbit chimeric pIgRs in Madin-Darby canine Downloaded from kidney cells and found that human pIgR D1 is crucial for the interaction with pentameric IgM when placed in the context of a full-length receptor regardless of its backbone species. D1 contains three complementarity-determining region-like loops (CDR1– 3), and to further map human D1 regions involved in pentameric IgM binding, we transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells with human/rabbit chimeric receptors in which the regions containing the CDR-like loops had been interchanged. Our results showed that the region containing the CDR2-like loop is the most essential for pentameric IgM binding. The region containing the CDR1-like loop also contributed substantially to this interaction, whereas only little contribution was provided by the region http://www.jimmunol.org/ containing the CDR3-like loop, although it appeared to be necessary for maximal pentameric IgM binding.

The CDR1- like loop in pIgR D1 is highly conserved among different species, 82–100% when conservative amino acid changes are not taken into account (25). The CDR2- and CDR3-like loops in D1 show less interspecies homology, but retain some invariant residues that may play important roles in ligand binding. Thus, a study by Coyne et al. (25), based on a mutational approach with modeling of the rabbit pIgR D1 sequence on known Ig variable structures, sug- gested that all three loops participate in the specific noncovalent binding of human pIgA. The order of importance was not exam- ined, but based on the studies mentioned above, the CDR1-like loop is probably the most important one for the initial interaction. In humans, pIgR binding of pIgA also depends on structural ele- ments outside D1 (Ref. 19 and Norderhaug et al.4), and the im- portance of interactions between pIgA and elements in CDR2 and CDR3 may therefore be less significant than for rabbit D1. Human pIgR does not show stable binding of monomeric IgA or other monomeric Ig isotypes, but interacts with both pIgA and pentameric IgM with high affinity, as mentioned above (16, 26). In Downloaded from mice and rabbits, on the other hand, the pIgR binds primarily pIgA (27). To characterize the interaction of human pentameric IgM with pIgR, we exploited this species difference and generated sev- eral chimeric receptors to characterize the pentameric IgM binding site of the receptor. We found that D1 of human origin could transfer its pentameric IgM-binding affinity to the rabbit pIgR, thus http://www.jimmunol.org/ substantiating its crucial role for both pIgA and pentameric IgM interaction. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the D1 regions containing CDR1- and CDR2-like loops of human origin could transfer substantial pentameric IgM-binding capacity to the rabbit pIgR. However, all three human pIgR CDR-like regions were re- quired for maximal pentameric IgM-binding capacity. Materials and Methods Immunoglobulins FIGURE 1.

Glycosylation is the main element of the post- translational transformation of most human proteins. Since glycosylation processes are necessary for many different biological processes, patients present a diverse spectrum of phenotypes and severity of symptoms. The most frequently observed neurological symptoms in congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are: epilepsy, intellectual disability, myopathies, neuropathies and stroke-like episodes. Epilepsy is seen in many CDG subtypes and particularly present in the case of mutations

  • PIGA Gene Phosphatidylinositol Glycan Anchor Biosynthesis Class A
    PIGA gene phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class A Normal Function The PIGA gene provides instructions for making a protein called phosphatidylinositol glycan class A. This protein takes part in a series of steps that produce a molecule called GPI anchor. Specifically, phosphatidylinositol glycan class A is involved in the first step of the sequence, which produces an intermediate molecule called N- acetylglucosaminyl phosphatidylinositol, or GlcNAc-PI. This step takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cell, a structure involved in protein processing and transport. The PIGA protein forms a complex with several other proteins, and this complex helps to start the reaction that produces GlcNAc-PI. The GPI anchor, the ultimate product of the sequence, attaches many different proteins to the cell membrane, thereby ensuring that these proteins are available when needed at the surface of the cell. Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria Some gene mutations are acquired during a person's lifetime and are present only in certain cells. These changes, which are called somatic mutations, are not inherited. In people with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, somatic mutations of the PIGA gene occur in blood-forming cells called hematopoietic stem cells. Hematopoietic stem cells produce red blood cells (erythrocytes) that carry oxygen, white blood cells (leukocytes) that protect the body from infection, and platelets (thrombocytes) that are involved in blood clotting. Individuals with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria have one or more PIGA gene mutations in their hematopoietic stem cells, which leads to abnormal blood cells. As the abnormal hematopoietic stem cells multiply, populations of abnormal blood cells are formed, alongside normal blood cells produced by normal hematopoietic stem cells.

  • Deoxyadenosine Triphosphate As a Mediator of Deoxyguanosine Toxicity in Cultured T Lymphoblasts
    Deoxyadenosine triphosphate as a mediator of deoxyguanosine toxicity in cultured T lymphoblasts. G J Mann, R M Fox J Clin Invest. 1986;78(5):1261-1269. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI112710. Research Article The mechanism by which 2'-deoxyguanosine is toxic for lymphoid cells is relevant both to the severe cellular immune defect of inherited purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency and to attempts to exploit PNP inhibitors therapeutically. We have studied the cell cycle and biochemical effects of 2'-deoxyguanosine in human lymphoblasts using the PNP inhibitor 8-aminoguanosine. We show that cytostatic 2'-deoxyguanosine concentrations cause G1-phase arrest in PNP-inhibited T lymphoblasts, regardless of their hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase status. This effect is identical to that produced by 2'-deoxyadenosine in adenosine deaminase-inhibited T cells. 2'-Deoxyguanosine elevates both the 2'-deoxyguanosine-5'-triphosphate (dGTP) and 2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate (dATP) pools; subsequently pyrimidine deoxyribonucleotide pools are depleted. The time course of these biochemical changes indicates that the onset of G1-phase arrest is related to increase of the dATP rather than the dGTP pool. When dGTP elevation is dissociated from dATP elevation by coincubation with 2'-deoxycytidine, dGTP does not by itself interrupt transit from the G1 to the S phase. It is proposed that dATP can mediate both 2'-deoxyguanosine and 2'-deoxyadenosine toxicity in T lymphoblasts.

  • Epigenetic Mechanisms Are Involved in the Oncogenic Properties of ZNF518B in Colorectal Cancer
    Epigenetic mechanisms are involved in the oncogenic properties of ZNF518B in colorectal cancer Francisco Gimeno-Valiente, Ángela L. Riffo-Campos, Luis Torres, Noelia Tarazona, Valentina Gambardella, Andrés Cervantes, Gerardo López-Rodas, Luis Franco and Josefa Castillo SUPPLEMENTARY METHODS 1. Selection of genomic sequences for ChIP analysis To select the sequences for ChIP analysis in the five putative target genes, namely, PADI3, ZDHHC2, RGS4, EFNA5 and KAT2B, the genomic region corresponding to the gene was downloaded from Ensembl. Then, zoom was applied to see in detail the promoter, enhancers and regulatory sequences. The details for HCT116 cells were then recovered and the target sequences for factor binding examined. Obviously, there are not data for ZNF518B, but special attention was paid to the target sequences of other zinc-finger containing factors. Finally, the regions that may putatively bind ZNF518B were selected and primers defining amplicons spanning such sequences were searched out. Supplementary Figure S3 gives the location of the amplicons used in each gene. 2. Obtaining the raw data and generating the BAM files for in silico analysis of the effects of EHMT2 and EZH2 silencing The data of siEZH2 (SRR6384524), siG9a (SRR6384526) and siNon-target (SRR6384521) in HCT116 cell line, were downloaded from SRA (Bioproject PRJNA422822, https://www.ncbi. nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/), using SRA-tolkit (https://ncbi.github.io/sra-tools/).

  • Congenital Muscular Dystrophy
    Arq Neuropsiquiatr 2009;67(2-A):343-362 Views and reviews Congenital musCular dystrophy Part II: a review of pathogenesis and therapeutic perspectives Umbertina Conti Reed1 abstract – The congenital muscular dystrophies (CMDs) are a group of genetically and clinically heterogeneous hereditary myopathies with preferentially autosomal recessive inheritance, that are characterized by congenital hypotonia, delayed motor development and early onset of progressive muscle weakness associated with dystrophic pattern on muscle biopsy. The clinical course is broadly variable and can comprise the involvement of the brain and eyes. From 1994, a great development in the knowledge of the molecular basis has occurred and the classification of CMDs has to be continuously up dated. In the last number of this journal, we presented the main clinical and diagnostic data concerning the different subtypes of CMD. In this second part of the review, we analyse the main reports from the literature concerning the pathogenesis and the therapeutic perspectives of the most common subtypes of CMD: MDC1A with merosin deficiency, collagen VI related CMDs (Ullrich and Bethlem), CMDs with abnormal glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (Fukuyama CMD, Muscle- eye-brain disease, Walker Warburg syndrome, MDC1C, MDC1D), and rigid spine syndrome, another much rare subtype of CMDs not related with the dystrophin/glycoproteins/extracellular matrix complex. Key WorDs: congenital muscular dystrophy, MDC1A, collagen VI related disorders, glycosylation of alpha- dystroglycan, Fukuyama DMC, muscle-eye-brain (MeB) disease, Walker-Warburg syndrome, rigid spine syndrome. distrofia muscular congênita. parte ii: revisão da patogênese e perspectivas terapêuticas resumo – As distrofias musculares congênitas (DMCs) são miopatias hereditárias geralmente, porém não exclusivamente, de herança autossômica recessiva, que apresentam grande heterogeneidade genética e clínica.

    Article pubs.acs.org/ac Multiplexed Surrogate Analysis of Glycotransferase Activity in Whole Biospecimens † † ‡ Chad R. Borges, ,* Douglas S. Rehder, and Paolo Boffetta † Molecular Biomarkers Unit, The Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287, United States ‡ Institute for Translational Epidemiology and Tisch Cancer Institute, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, New York 10029, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Dysregulated glycotransferase enzymes in can- cer cells produce aberrant glycanssome of which can help facilitate metastases. Within a cell, individual glycotransferases promiscuously help to construct dozens of unique glycan structures, making it difficult to comprehensively track their activity in biospecimensespecially where they are absent or inactive. Here, we describe an approach to deconstruct glycans in whole biospecimens then analytically pool together resulting monosaccharide-and-linkage-specific degradation products (“glycan nodes”) that directly represent the activities of specific glycotransferases. To implement this concept, a reproducible, relative quantitation-based glycan methylation analysis methodology was developed that simultaneously captures information from N-, O-, and lipid linked glycans and is compatible with whole biofluids and homogenized tissues; in total, over 30 different glycan nodes are detectable per gas chromatography−mass spectrometry (GC-MS) run. Numerous nonliver organ cancers are known to induce the production of abnormally glycosylated serum proteins. Thus, following analytical validation, in blood plasma, the technique was applied to a group of 59 lung cancer patient plasma samples and age/gender/ smoking-status-matched non-neoplastic controls from the Lung Cancer in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) study to gauge the clinical utility of the approach toward the detection of lung cancer.
