    Stamova et al. Molecular Autism 2013, 4:30 http://www.molecularautism.com/content/4/1/30 RESEARCH Open Access Evidence for differential alternative splicing in blood of young boys with autism spectrum disorders Boryana S Stamova1,2,5*, Yingfang Tian1,2,4, Christine W Nordahl1,3, Mark D Shen1,3, Sally Rogers1,3, David G Amaral1,3 and Frank R Sharp1,2 Abstract Background: Since RNA expression differences have been reported in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) for blood and brain, and differential alternative splicing (DAS) has been reported in ASD brains, we determined if there was DAS in blood mRNA of ASD subjects compared to typically developing (TD) controls, as well as in ASD subgroups related to cerebral volume. Methods: RNA from blood was processed on whole genome exon arrays for 2-4–year-old ASD and TD boys. An ANCOVA with age and batch as covariates was used to predict DAS for ALL ASD (n=30), ASD with normal total cerebral volumes (NTCV), and ASD with large total cerebral volumes (LTCV) compared to TD controls (n=20). Results: A total of 53 genes were predicted to have DAS for ALL ASD versus TD, 169 genes for ASD_NTCV versus TD, 1 gene for ASD_LTCV versus TD, and 27 genes for ASD_LTCV versus ASD_NTCV. These differences were significant at P <0.05 after false discovery rate corrections for multiple comparisons (FDR <5% false positives). A number of the genes predicted to have DAS in ASD are known to regulate DAS (SFPQ, SRPK1, SRSF11, SRSF2IP, FUS, LSM14A). In addition, a number of genes with predicted DAS are involved in pathways implicated in previous ASD studies, such as ROS monocyte/macrophage, Natural Killer Cell, mTOR, and NGF signaling.

Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues at the C-terminus of human DHX29. Antibodies were purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography. Background DHX29 is an ATP-dependent RNA helicase that belongs to the DEAD-box helicase family (DEAH subfamily). DHX29 contains one central helicase and one helicase at the carboxy-terminal domain (1). Its function has not been fully established but DHX29 was recently shown to facilitate translation initiation on mRNAs with structured 5' untranslated regions (2). DHX29 binds 40S subunits and hydrolyzes ATP, GTP, UTP, and CTP. Hydrolysis of nucleotide triphosphates by DHX29 is strongly stimulated by 43S complexes and is required for DHX29 activity in promoting 48S complex formation (2). 1. de la Cruz, J.

Knowledge of how they form and resolve, as well as their functional roles, is limited. Here, by pull-down assays followed by mass spectrometry, we identified 803 proteins that bind to RNA/DNA hybrids. Because these proteins were identified using in vitro assays, we confirmed that they bind to R-loops in vivo. They include proteins that are involved in a variety of functions, including most steps of RNA processing. The proteins are enriched for K homology (KH) and helicase domains. Among them, more than 300 proteins preferred binding to hybrids than double-stranded DNA. These proteins serve as starting points for mechanistic studies to elucidate what RNA/DNA hybrids regulate and how they are regulated.

We 15 show that eIF4A’s ATPase activity is markedly stimulated in the presence of the PIC, independently of eIF4E•eIF4G, 16 but dependent on subunits i and g of the heteromeric eIF3 complex. Surprisingly, eIF4A accelerated the rate of 17 recruitment of all mRNAs tested, regardless of their degree of structural complexity. Structures in the 5'-UTR and 3' of 18 the start codon synergistically inhibit mRNA recruitment in a manner relieved by eIF4A, indicating that the factor does 19 not act solely to melt hairpins in 5'-UTRs. Our findings that eIF4A functionally interacts with the PIC and plays 20 important roles beyond unwinding 5'-UTR structure is consistent with a recent proposal that eIF4A modulates the 21 conformation of the 40S ribosomal subunit to promote mRNA recruitment.

  • Alu RNA Regulates the Cellular Pool of Active Ribosomes by Targeted Delivery of SRP9/14 to 40S Subunits
    Article Alu RNA regulates the cellular pool of active ribosomes by targeted delivery of SRP9/14 to 40S subunits IVANOVA, Elena, et al. Abstract The human genome contains about 1.5 million Alu elements, which are transcribed into Alu RNAs by RNA polymerase III. Their expression is upregulated following stress and viral infection, and they associate with the SRP9/14 protein dimer in the cytoplasm forming Alu RNPs. Using cell-free translation, we have previously shown that Alu RNPs inhibit polysome formation. Here, we describe the mechanism of Alu RNP-mediated inhibition of translation initiation and demonstrate its effect on translation of cellular and viral RNAs. Both cap-dependent and IRES-mediated initiation is inhibited. Inhibition in- volves direct binding of SRP9/14 to 40S ribosomal subunits and requires Alu RNA as an assembly factor but its continuous association with 40S subunits is not required for inhibition. Binding of SRP9/14 to 40S prevents 48S complex formation by interfering with the recruitment of mRNA to 40S subunits. In cells, overexpression of Alu RNA decreases transla- tion of reporter mRNAs and this effect is alleviated with a mutation that reduces its affinity for SRP9/14. Alu RNPs also inhibit the translation of cellular mR- NAs resuming [...] Reference IVANOVA, Elena, et al.

  • Migration and Epithelial-To-Mesenchymal Transition of Lung Cancer Can Be Targeted Via Translation Initiation Factors Eif4e and E
    Laboratory Investigation (2016) 96, 1004–1015 © 2016 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/16 Migration and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of lung cancer can be targeted via translation initiation factors eIF4E and eIF4GI Oshrat Attar-Schneider1,2,4, Liat Drucker2,4,5 and Maya Gottfried1,3,4,5 Metastasis underlies cancer morbidity and accounts for disease progression and significant death rates generally and in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) particularly. Therefore, it is critically important to understand the molecular events that regulate metastasis. Accumulating data portray a central role for protein synthesis, particularly translation initiation (TI) factors eIF4E and eIF4G in tumorigenesis and patients' survival. We have published that eIF4E/eIF4GI activities and consequently NSCLC cell migration are modulated by bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cell secretomes, suggesting a role for TI in metastasis. Here, we aimed to expand our understanding of the TI factors significance to NSCLC characteristics, particularly epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and migration, supportive of metastasis. In a model of NSCLC cell lines (H1299, H460), we inhibited eIF4E/eIF4GI's expressions (siRNA, ribavirin) and assessed NSCLC cell lines' migration (scratch), differentiation (EMT, immunoblotting), and expression of select microRNAs (qPCR). Initially, we determined an overexpression of several TI factors (eIF4E, eIF4GI, eIF4B, and DHX29) and their respective targets in NSCLC compared with normal lung samples (70–350%↑, Po0.05). Knockdown (KD) of eIF4E/eIF4GI in NSCLC cell lines (70%↓, Po0.05) also manifested in decreased target levels (ERα, SMAD5, NFkB, CyclinD1, c-MYC, and HIF1α) (20–50%↓, Po0.05). eIF4E/eIF4GI KD also attenuated cell migration (60–75%↓, Po0.05), EMT promoters (15–90%↓, Po0.05), and enhanced EMT suppressors (30–380%↑, Po0.05).

  • Identification of Host DEAD-Box RNA Helicases That Regulate Cellular Tropism of Oncolytic Myxoma Virus in Human Cancer Cells
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identifcation of host DEAD-box RNA helicases that regulate cellular tropism of oncolytic Myxoma virus Received: 29 March 2017 Accepted: 6 November 2017 in human cancer cells Published: xx xx xxxx Masmudur M. Rahman1, Eugenie Bagdassarian2, Mohamed A. M. Ali3 & Grant McFadden1 Myxoma virus (MYXV), a Leporipoxvirus, is being developed as an oncolytic virotherapeutic for the treatment of a variety of human cancers. MYXV tropism for human cancer cells is largely mediated by intracellular signaling networks that regulate viral replication or innate antiviral response pathways. Thus, MYXV is fully or partially permissive for the majority of human cancer cells that harbor defects in antiviral signaling, but a minority are nonpermissive because the virus infection aborts before its completion. To identify host factors relevant for MYXV tropism in human cancer cells, we performed a small interfering RNA (siRNA) library screen targeting the 58 human DEAD-box RNA helicases in two permissive human cancer cells (HeLa and A549), one semi-permissive (786-0), and one nonpermissive cell line (PANC-1). Five host RNA helicases (DDX3X, DDX5, DHX9, DHX37, DDX52) were inhibitory for optimal replication and thus classifed as anti-viral, while three other cellular RNA helicases (DHX29, DHX35, RIG-I) were identifed as pro-viral or pro-cellular because knockdown consistently reduced MYXV replication and/or required metabolic functions of permissive cancer cells. These fndings suggest that replication of MYXV, and likely all poxviruses, is dramatically regulated positively and negatively by multiple host DEAD-box RNA helicases. MYXV is the prototypic member of the Leporipoxvirus genus of Poxviridae family of viruses, which causes myx- omatosis disease in European rabbits, but is utterly non-pathogenic for all other non-leporid species.

    SAN TA C RUZ BI OTEC HNOL OG Y, INC . DDX29 (H-248): sc-98409 BACKGROUND PRODUCT DDX29 (putative ATP-dependent RNA helicase DHX29) is a 1,369 amino acid Each vial contains 200 µg IgG in 1.0 ml of PBS with < 0.1% sodium azide protein encoded by the human gene DDX29. This protein belongs to the DEAD- and 0.1% gelatin. box helicase family (DEAH subfamily) and contains one helicase ATP-binding domain and one helicase C-terminal domain. DDX29 is a nuclear protein found APPLICATIONS on chromosome 5 that likely functions as an ATP-dependent RNA helicase. DDX29 (H-248) is recommended for detection of DDX29 of mouse, rat and RNA helicases are highly conserved enzymes that utilize the energy derived human origin by Western Blotting (starting dilution 1:200, dilution range from NTP hydrolysis to modulate the structure of RNA. RNA helicases par - 1:100-1:1000), immunoprecipitation [1-2 µg per 100-500 µg of total protein ticipate in all biological processes that involve RNA, including transcription, (1 ml of cell lysate)], immunofluorescence (starting dilution 1:50, dilution splicing and translation. range 1:50-1:500) and solid phase ELISA (starting dilution 1:30, dilution range 1:30-1:3000).
