Böttger for giving me the opportunity to work as a PhD student in his lab. You always had an open door- and ear policy for scientific questions and were very supportive in the cases of preparing scientific presentations and reports. Thanks to your critical reviews of my work I learned a great deal. I wish you many more successful years with interesting projects to come. I am very grateful to Dr. Dimitri Sherbakov and Dr. Rashid Akbergenov, postdocs in the Böttger group; they were always interested in my work and gave me useful advice on many occasions. I very much appreciate the fact that Prof. Dr. Leo Eberl, Prof. Dr. Vikram Panse and Prof. Dr. Peter Sander agreed to act as members of my thesis committee in the PhD program in Molecular Life Sciences and took the time to monitor my progress. A big thank you goes to the current and former members of the Böttger group; Stefan, Pietro, Heithem, Youjin, Pietro, Tanja J., and Thomas. All of you never hesitated to help me and offered me plenty of advice over the years. Also I would like to thank Susanna Salas for all of her help – for administrative objects and the many small but also important other things. In particular, special gratitude is reserved for Tanja Matt. Your friendship and love alone is already worth the years as PhD student! No matter what, I will always love you! My dear friends, I love you all and I am very happy to have you! Biggest shouts go especially to Dario, Felix and Sam! You had always an open ear for my stories straight from the lab bench, even when most of the time I was speaking about stuff you didn’t quite understand. Bringing me back down to earth or lifting me back up onto my feet when necessary, you always have been and always will 1 be there for me. I am tremendously thankful for having such reliable and loyal friends, you guys rock! Most importantly, I want to thank my family! Mom, Dad, you were always supportive on all issues and matters. Without you I wouldn’t be where I am today. I’d also like to thank my sister Danielle. I admire you for everything you do or did and I hope you stay the way you are! To my brother Roger; I deeply regret that I don’t know what you’re doing or where you are right now, but I won’t give up hope that we’ll see each other again soon. 2 2 SUMMARY The ribosome is a large macromolecular complex which mediates protein synthesis using messenger RNA (mRNA) as a template and aminoacyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) as a substrate. High accuracy of translation is essential for all living cells. Aminoglycoside antibiotics are used in clinical medicine to treat life- threatening infections with gram-negative bacteria. Aminoglycosides target the highly conserved core structure of the ribosome, in particular the A-site, where they inhibit protein synthesis and prevent proper mRNA decoding. The objective of this thesis was to analyze how aminoglycosides affect the human ribosome, i.e. to study aminoglycoside-induced translation inhibition and misreading. As a possible consequence of ribosomal misreading we investigated cellular unfolded protein responses, in particular in mitochondria (UPRmt) and the endoplasmatic reticulum (UPRER). The first part of the thesis examines how different aminoglycosides affect translation. Towards this end we established a gain-of-function assay to measure the efficacy of translational and ribosomal accuracy. This we did in-vitro using Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate and in-vivo using HEK293 cells. We observed a significant correlation when comparing in-vitro vs. in-vivo data between translation inhibition or misreading induction. Geneticin was identified as the most potent misreading inducer and translation inhibitor of the cytoribosome. However, no direct correlation

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Key words: SVA, trans-mobilisation, behaviour, brain, evolution, psychiatric disorders 1 Abstract The hominid-specific non-LTR retrotransposon termed SINE–VNTR–Alu (SVA) is the youngest of the transposable elements in the human genome. The propagation of the most ancient SVA type A took place about 13.5 Myrs ago, and the youngest SVA types appeared in the human genome after the chimpanzee divergence. Functional enrichment analysis of genes associated with SVA insertions demonstrated their strong link to multiple ontological categories attributed to brain function and the disorders. SVA types that expanded their presence in the human genome at different stages of hominoid life history were also associated with progressively evolving behavioural features that indicated a potential impact of SVA propagation on a cognitive ability of a modern human.

Abstract: The discovery and application of antibiotics in the common clinical practice has undeniably been one of the major medical advances in our times. Their use meant a drastic drop in infectious diseases-related mortality and contributed to prolonging human life expectancy worldwide. Never- theless, antibiotics are considered by many a double-edged sword. Their extensive use in the past few years has given rise to a global problem: antibiotic resistance. This factor and the increasing evidence that a wide range of antibiotics can damage mammalian mitochondria, have driven a significant sector of the medical and scientific communities to advise against the use of antibiotics for purposes Citation: Suárez-Rivero, J.M.; other to treating severe infections.

  • The Physiological Functions of Mammalian Endoplasmic Oxidoreductin 1: on Disulfides and More
    ANTIOXIDANTS & REDOX SIGNALING Volume 16, Number 10, 2012 FORUM REVIEW ARTICLE ª Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/ars.2011.4475 The Physiological Functions of Mammalian Endoplasmic Oxidoreductin 1: On Disulfides and More Thomas Ramming and Christian Appenzeller-Herzog Abstract Significance: The oxidative process of disulfide-bond formation is essential for the folding of most secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It is driven by electron relay pathways that transfer two electrons derived from the fusion of two adjacent cysteinyl side chains onto various types of chemical oxidants. The conserved, ER-resident endoplasmic oxidoreductin 1 (Ero1) sulfhydryl oxidases that reduce molecular oxygen to generate an active-site disulfide represent one of these pathways. In mammals, two family members exist, Ero1a and Ero1b. Recent Advances: The two mammalian Ero1 enzymes differ in transcriptional and post- translational regulation, tissue distribution, and catalytic turnover. A specific protein–protein interaction be- tween either isoform and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) facilitates the propagation of disulfides from Ero1 via PDI to nascent polypeptides, and inbuilt oxidative shutdown mechanisms in Ero1a and Ero1b prevent excessive oxidation of PDI. Critical Issues: Besides disulfide-bond generation, Ero1a also regulates calcium release from the ER and the secretion of disulfide-linked oligomers through its reversible association with the chaperone ERp44. This review explores the functional repertoire and possible redundancy of mammalian Ero1 enzymes. Future Directions: Systematic analyses of different knockout mouse models will be the most promising strategy to shed new light on unique and tissue-specific roles of Ero1a and Ero1b. Moreover, in-depth characterization of the known physical interactions of Ero1 with peroxidases and PDI family members will help broaden our functional and mechanistic understanding of Ero1 enzymes.
