Pansini 5, 80131 Napoli, Italy Received 27 February 2005; accepted after revision 10 May 2005 Available online 8 June 2005 Presented by Stuart Edelstein Abstract Metazoans rely on the regulated translation of select maternal mRNAs to control oocyte maturation and the initial stages of embryogenesis. These transcripts usually remain silent until their translation is temporally and spatially required during early development. Different translational regulatory mechanisms, varying from cytoplasmic polyadenylation to localization of maternal mRNAs, have evolved to assure coordinated initiation of development. A common feature of these mechanisms is that they share a few key trans-acting factors. Increasing evidence suggest that ubiquitous conserved mRNA-binding factors, including the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) and the cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein (CPEB), interact with cell-specific molecules to accomplish the correct level of translational activity necessary for normal development. Here we review how capping and polyadenylation of mRNAs modulate interaction with multiple regulatory factors, thus controlling translation during oogenesis and early development.

Over the last decade, prokaryotic ribosome structures have provided the basis for a mechanistic understanding of protein synthesis. While the core functional centers are conserved in all kingdoms, eukaryotic ribosomes are much larger than archaeal or bacterial ribosomes. Eukaryotic ribosomal rRNA and proteins contain extensions or insertions to the prokaryotic core, and many eukaryotic proteins do not have prokaryotic counterparts. Furthermore, translation regulation and ribosome biogenesis is much more complex in eukaryotes, and defects in components of the translation machinery are associated with human diseases and cancer. -

The influenza A virus genome consists of eight single-stranded RNA segments sequestered within a protein capsid and a lipid bilayer envelope. During host cell entry, cellular cues contribute to viral conformational changes that promote critical events such as fusion with late endosomes, capsid uncoating and viral genome release into the cytosol. In this focused review, we concisely describe the virus infection cycle and highlight the recent findings of host cell pathways and cytosolic proteins that assist influenza uncoating during host cell entry.

Chapter 12 Gene Expression and Regulation
PYF12 3/21/05 8:04 PM Page 191 Chapter 12 Gene expression and regulation Bacterial genomes usually contain several thousand different genes. Some of the gene products are required by the cell under all growth conditions and are called house- keeping genes. These include the genes that encode such proteins as DNA poly- merase, RNA polymerase, and DNA gyrase. Many other gene products are required under specific growth conditions. These include enzymes that synthesize amino acids, break down specific sugars, or respond to a specific environmental condition such as DNA damage. Housekeeping genes must be expressed at some level all of the time. Frequently, as the cell grows faster, more of the housekeeping gene products are needed. Even under very slow growth, some of each housekeeping gene product is made. The gene prod- ucts required for specific growth conditions are not needed all of the time. These genes are frequently expressed at extremely low levels, or not expressed at all when they are not needed and yet made when they are needed. This chapter will examine gene regulation or how bacteria regulate the expression of their genes so that the genes that are being expressed meet the needs of the cell for a specific growth condition. Gene regulation can occur at three possible places in the production of an active gene product. First, the transcription of the gene can be regulated. This is known as transcriptional regulation. When the gene is transcribed and how much it is transcribed influences the amount of gene product that is made. Second, if the gene encodes a protein, it can be regulated at the translational level. -

Yount, PhD, Department of Microbial Infection and Immunity, the Ohio State University, 460 W 12th Ave, Biomedical Research Tower 790, Columbus, OH 43210 ([email protected]). ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) utilizes a bifurcated cellular entry strategy, fusing either with the plasma membrane or, after endocytosis, with the endosome membrane. Whether cellular factors restrict or enhance either entry pathway is largely unknown. We found that the interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) inhibits hMPV infection to an extent similar to endocytosis-inhibiting drugs, and an IFITM3 variant that accumulates at the plasma membrane in addition to its endosome localization provided increased virus restriction. Mechanistically, IFITM3 blocks hMPV F protein-mediated membrane fusion, and inhibition of infection was reversed by the membrane destabilizing drug amphotericin B. Conversely, we unexpectedly found that infection by some hMPV strains is enhanced by Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), an endosomal protein, suggesting that cellular entry via endocytosis may be particularly advantageous for hMPV despite eventual restriction of this pathway upon induction of IFITM3. -
Negative Feedback Through Mrna Provides the Best Control of Gene-Expression Noise
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NANOBIOSCIENCE 1 Negative feedback through mRNA provides the best control of gene-expression noise Abhyudai Singh Member, IEEE Abstract—Genetically identical cell populations exposed to the same environment can exhibit considerable cell-to-cell variation in the levels of specific proteins. This variation or expression noise arises from the inherent stochastic nature of biochemical reactions that constitute gene-expression. Negative feedback loops are common motifs in gene networks that reduce expression noise and intercellular variability in protein levels. Using stochastic models of gene expression we here compare different feedback architectures in their ability to reduce stochasticity in protein levels. A mathematically controlled comparison shows that in physiologically relevant parameter regimes, feedback regulation through the mRNA provides the best suppression of expression noise. Consistent with our theoretical results we find negative feedback loops though the mRNA in essential eukaryotic genes, where feedback is mediated via intron-derived microRNAs. Finally, we find that contrary to previous results, protein mediated translational regulation may not always provide significantly better noise suppression than protein mediated transcriptional regulation.

Prof. Dr. Markus Kollmann 2. Prof. Dr. Nils Blüthgen 3. Prof. Dr. Zoya Ignatova Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 16.05.2013 Ich widme diese Arbeit meiner Familie und meinen Freunden Abstract Translation is the final step in the fundamental process of protein biosynthesis, the proper course of which is of utmost importance to the living cell. Here we investigate the relationship between translational efficiency and codon usage at the gene start. It is known for some organisms that usage of synonymous codons at the beginning of genes deviates from the codon usage elsewhere in the genome. By systematically analyzing about 400 bacterial genomes we find that this phenomenon is widespread but differs markedly in strength. We show that this deviation in codon usage is caused by the need to suppress RNA secondary structure around the translation start site, thereby allowing efficient initiation of translation. This pressure to reduce folding increases with the GC-content of the respective genome. In contrast to the current hypothesis that codon usage is adapted in order to slow down early elongation, we conclude that the observed enrichment of rare codons is a consequence of suppressing mRNA structure around the ribosome binding site (RBS). -
Ribosomal DNA Copy Number Is Coupled with Gene Expression Variation and Mitochondrial Abundance in Humans
ARTICLE Received 12 Apr 2014 | Accepted 30 Jul 2014 | Published 11 Sep 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms5850 Ribosomal DNA copy number is coupled with gene expression variation and mitochondrial abundance in humans John G. Gibbons1, Alan T. Branco1, Shoukai Yu1 & Bernardo Lemos1 Ribosomes are essential intracellular machines composed of proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA sequences (rDNA) encoding ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are tandemly repeated and give origin to the nucleolus. Here we develop a computational method for estimating rDNA dosage (copy number) and mitochondrial DNA abundance using whole-genome short-read DNA sequencing. We estimate these attributes across hundreds of human genomes and their association with global gene expression. The analyses uncover abundant variation in rDNA dosage that is coupled with the expression of hundreds of functionally coherent gene sets. These include associations with genes coding for chromatin components that target the nucleolus, including CTCF and HP1b. Finally, the data show an inverse association between rDNA dosage and mitochondrial DNA abundance that is manifested across genotypes. Our findings uncover a novel and cryptic source of hypervariable genomic diversity with global regulatory consequences (ribosomal eQTL) in humans. The variation provides a mechanism for cellular homeostasis and for rapid and reversible adaptation. 1 Program in Molecular and Integrative Physiological Sciences, Department of Environmental Health, Harvard School of Public Health, 665 Huntington Avenue, Building 2, Room 219, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA.
