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. -

Preclinical Evaluation of Protein Disulfide Isomerase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Glioblastoma By Andrea Shergalis A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Medicinal Chemistry) in the University of Michigan 2020 Doctoral Committee: Professor Nouri Neamati, Chair Professor George A. Garcia Professor Peter J. H. Scott Professor Shaomeng Wang Andrea G. Shergalis [email protected] ORCID 0000-0002-1155-1583 © Andrea Shergalis 2020 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS So many people have been involved in bringing this project to life and making this dissertation possible. First, I want to thank my advisor, Prof. Nouri Neamati, for his guidance, encouragement, and patience. Prof. Neamati instilled an enthusiasm in me for science and drug discovery, while allowing me the space to independently explore complex biochemical problems, and I am grateful for his kind and patient mentorship. I also thank my committee members, Profs. George Garcia, Peter Scott, and Shaomeng Wang, for their patience, guidance, and support throughout my graduate career. I am thankful to them for taking time to meet with me and have thoughtful conversations about medicinal chemistry and science in general. From the Neamati lab, I would like to thank so many. First and foremost, I have to thank Shuzo Tamara for being an incredible, kind, and patient teacher and mentor. Shuzo is one of the hardest workers I know. In addition to a strong work ethic, he taught me pretty much everything I know and laid the foundation for the article published as Chapter 3 of this dissertation. The work published in this dissertation really began with the initial identification of PDI as a target by Shili Xu, and I am grateful for his advice and guidance (from afar!). -

However, this is not the cause of the hearing loss; even before The microRNA miR-96 is important for hearing, as point mutations in the onset of normal hearing, homozygote hair cells fail to mature humans and mice result in dominant progressive hearing loss. Mir96 both morphologically and physiologically, remaining in their is expressed in sensory cells along with Mir182 and Mir183, but the immature state, and heterozygote hair cells show a developmental roles of these closely-linked microRNAs are as yet unknown. Here, delay. miR-96 is thus thought to be responsible for coordinating we analyse mice carrying null alleles of Mir182, and of Mir183 and hair cell maturation (Chen et al., 2014; Kuhn et al., 2011). Mir96 together to investigate their roles in hearing. We found that Overexpression of the three miRNAs also results in cochlear defects Mir183/96 heterozygous mice had normal hearing and homozygotes and hearing loss (Weston et al., 2018). The complete loss of all were completely deaf with abnormal hair cell stereocilia bundles and mature miRNAs from the inner ear results in early developmental reduced numbers of inner hair cell synapses at 4 weeks of age. defects including a severely truncated cochlear duct (Friedman Mir182 knockout mice developed normal hearing then exhibited et al., 2009; Soukup et al., 2009). -

The symmetrical CG and diseases. Methylome refers to the entire set of methylation dinucleotides are also called as CpG, due to the presence of modifications present in the whole genome. Over the last phosphodiester bond between cytosine and guanine. The several years, an increasing number of reports on brain DNA human genome contains short lengths of DNA (∼1,000 bp) in methylome reported the association between aberrant which CpG is commonly located (∼1 per 10 bp) in methylation and the abnormalities in the expression of critical unmethylated form and referred as CpG islands; they genes known to have critical roles during aging and neuro- commonly overlap with the transcription start sites (TSSs) of degenerative diseases.

TMX2) Regulates the Ran Protein Gradient and Importin-Β-Dependent Nuclear Cargo Transport Ami Oguro1,2 & Susumu Imaoka1
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Thioredoxin-related transmembrane protein 2 (TMX2) regulates the Ran protein gradient and importin-β-dependent nuclear cargo transport Ami Oguro1,2 & Susumu Imaoka1 TMX2 is a thioredoxin family protein, but its functions have not been clarifed. To elucidate the function of TMX2, we explored TMX2-interacting proteins by LC-MS. As a result, importin-β, Ran GTPase (Ran), RanGAP, and RanBP2 were identifed. Importin-β is an adaptor protein which imports cargoes from cytosol to the nucleus, and is exported into the cytosol by interaction with RanGTP. At the cytoplasmic nuclear pore, RanGAP and RanBP2 facilitate hydrolysis of RanGTP to RanGDP and the disassembly of the Ran-importin-β complex, which allows the recycling of importin-β and reentry of Ran into the nucleus. Despite its interaction of TMX2 with importin-β, we showed that TMX2 is not a transport cargo. We found that TMX2 localizes in the outer nuclear membrane with its N-terminus and C-terminus facing the cytoplasm, where it co-localizes with importin-β and Ran. Ran is predominantly distributed in the nucleus, but TMX2 knockdown disrupted the nucleocytoplasmic Ran gradient, and the cysteine 112 residue of Ran was important in its regulation by TMX2. In addition, knockdown of TMX2 suppressed importin-β-mediated transport of protein. These results suggest that TMX2 works as a regulator of protein nuclear transport, and that TMX2 facilitates the nucleocytoplasmic Ran cycle by interaction with nuclear pore proteins. Tioredoxin-related transmembrane proteins (TMXs) are protein disulfde isomerase (PDI) family members and possess a transmembrane region. -
