The Molecular and Biochemical Characterization of the MLRQ Subunit of NADH:Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase in the Humsn Mitochondrîal Respiratory Chain Master of Science, 200 1 Dhushy Kanagarajah Department of Biochemistry University of Toronto Abstract Isolated deficiency of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex 1), the first enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chah is the most comrnon cause of human mitochondriocytopathies. In order to characterize the nuclear genes contributing to this disease, the cDNA and genomic sequences encoding the MLRQ subunit of complex I were determined. The NDUF.44 gene encoding MLRQ was localized to chromosome 7 p2 1-22 and a pseudogene was found on chromosome 1 p2 1. Tissue specific expression of MLRQ at both mRNA and protein levels was examined. Overexpression of this subunit in a patient exhibiting complex 1 deficiency is dso discussed. Extraction. immunoprecipitation and cross-linking studies revealed that while the N-teminus of MLRQ has a great afinity for phospholipids of the inner mitochondriai membrane. it likely also associates with the MWFE subunit through other intemediary subunit(s). forming part of the bulky staik region that bridges the two arms of complex 1.

  • An Investigation Into the Genetic Architecture of Multiple System Atrophy and Familial Parkinson's Disease
    An investigation into the genetic architecture of multiple system atrophy and familial Parkinson’s disease By Monica Federoff A thesis submitted to University College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Laboratory of Neurogenetics, Department of Molecular Neuroscience, Institute of Neurology, University College London (UCL) 2 I, Monica Federoff, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Information derived from other sources and collaborative work have been indicated appropriately. Signature: Date: 09/06/2016 3 Acknowledgements: When I first joined the Laboratory of Neurogenetics (LNG), NIA, NIH as a summer intern in 2008, I had minimal experience working in a laboratory and was both excited and anxious at the prospect of it. From my very first day, Dr. Andrew Singleton was incredibly welcoming and introduced me to my first mentor, Dr. Javier Simon- Sanchez. Within just ten weeks working in the lab, both Dr. Singleton and Dr. Simon- Sanchez taught me the fundamental skills in an encouraging and supportive environment. I quickly got to know others in the lab, some of whom are still here today, and I sincerely appreciate their help with my assimilation into the LNG. After returning for an additional summer and one year as an IRTA postbac, I was honored to pursue a PhD in such an intellectually stimulating and comfortable environment. I am so grateful that Dr. Singleton has been such a wonderful mentor, as he is not only a brilliant scientist, but also extremely personable and approachable. If I inquire about meeting with him, he always manages to make time in his busy schedule and provides excellent guidance and mentorship.

Mok1,5,6,14,15 &HoKo 1,2,4,5,6,8,14,16 1234567890():,; The molecular signatures of cells in the brain have been revealed in unprecedented detail, yet the ageing-associated genome-wide expression changes that may contribute to neurovas- cular dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases remain elusive. Here, we report zonation- dependent transcriptomic changes in aged mouse brain endothelial cells (ECs), which pro- minently implicate altered immune/cytokine signaling in ECs of all vascular segments, and functional changes impacting the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and glucose/energy metabolism especially in capillary ECs (capECs). An overrepresentation of Alzheimer disease (AD) GWAS genes is evident among the human orthologs of the differentially expressed genes of aged capECs, while comparative analysis revealed a subset of concordantly downregulated, functionally important genes in human AD brains. Treatment with exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, strongly reverses aged mouse brain EC transcriptomic changes and BBB leakage, with associated attenuation of microglial priming. We thus revealed tran- scriptomic alterations underlying brain EC ageing that are complex yet pharmacologically reversible.

  • Low Abundance of the Matrix Arm of Complex I in Mitochondria Predicts Longevity in Mice
    ARTICLE Received 24 Jan 2014 | Accepted 9 Apr 2014 | Published 12 May 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4837 OPEN Low abundance of the matrix arm of complex I in mitochondria predicts longevity in mice Satomi Miwa1, Howsun Jow2, Karen Baty3, Amy Johnson1, Rafal Czapiewski1, Gabriele Saretzki1, Achim Treumann3 & Thomas von Zglinicki1 Mitochondrial function is an important determinant of the ageing process; however, the mitochondrial properties that enable longevity are not well understood. Here we show that optimal assembly of mitochondrial complex I predicts longevity in mice. Using an unbiased high-coverage high-confidence approach, we demonstrate that electron transport chain proteins, especially the matrix arm subunits of complex I, are decreased in young long-living mice, which is associated with improved complex I assembly, higher complex I-linked state 3 oxygen consumption rates and decreased superoxide production, whereas the opposite is seen in old mice. Disruption of complex I assembly reduces oxidative metabolism with concomitant increase in mitochondrial superoxide production. This is rescued by knockdown of the mitochondrial chaperone, prohibitin. Disrupted complex I assembly causes premature senescence in primary cells. We propose that lower abundance of free catalytic complex I components supports complex I assembly, efficacy of substrate utilization and minimal ROS production, enabling enhanced longevity. 1 Institute for Ageing and Health, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 2 Centre for Integrated Systems Biology of Ageing and Nutrition, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 3 Newcastle University Protein and Proteome Analysis, Devonshire Building, Devonshire Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU, UK.

Received: 29 April 2020; Accepted: 15 May 2020; Published: 18 May 2020 Abstract: Mitochondria serve as a hub for many cellular processes, including bioenergetics, metabolism, cellular signaling, redox balance, calcium homeostasis, and cell death. The mitochondrial proteome includes over a thousand proteins, encoded by both the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. The majority (~99%) of proteins are nuclear encoded that are synthesized in the cytosol and subsequently imported into the mitochondria. Within the mitochondria, polypeptides fold and assemble into their native functional form. Mitochondria health and integrity depend on correct protein import, folding, and regulated turnover termed as mitochondrial protein quality control (MPQC). Failure to maintain these processes can cause mitochondrial dysfunction that leads to various pathophysiological outcomes and the commencement of diseases. Here, we summarize the current knowledge about the role of different MPQC regulatory systems such as mitochondrial chaperones, proteases, the ubiquitin-proteasome system, mitochondrial unfolded protein response, mitophagy, and mitochondria-derived vesicles in the maintenance of mitochondrial proteome and health. The proper understanding of mitochondrial protein quality control mechanisms will provide relevant insights to treat multiple human diseases. Keywords: mitochondria; proteome; ubiquitin; proteasome; chaperones; protease; mitophagy; mitochondrial protein quality control; mitochondria-associated degradation; mitochondrial unfolded protein response 1.

    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Ndufb3 Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Ndufb3 knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Ndufb3 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_025597 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000026032 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 1. 3 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 2 and the TGA stop codon in exon 3 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000027193). Exon 2~3 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 2 starts from about 0.32% of the coding region. Exon 2~3 covers 100.0% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~4711 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.
