Despite an increasing body of evidences highlights ribosome biogenesis regulator homolog (RRS1) as a ribosome biogenesis protein in yeast and plants, little is known about human RRS1 function. Methods: Proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of PTC cells were assessed following the knockdown of RRS1 expression though MTT, colony formation assay, and fow cytometry. Then, transcriptome profling was conducted to explore pathway changes after RRS1 silencing in PTC cells. Receiver operating characteristic curve and Youden’s index were performed in twenty-four thyroid carcinoma samples to assess their potential clinical diagnostic value. Results: Firstly, we found that silencing RRS1 signifcantly reduced cell proliferation, inhibited cell cycle, and pro- moted apoptosis in PTC cell line. The result also showed that knock-down of RRS1 could up-regulate genes involving apoptosis and metabolism, while, down-regulate genes relative to cell proliferation and blood vessel development. Notably, the present study confrmed the diagnostic value of RRS1 for thyroid carcinoma in both children and adults. Conclusions: In conclusion, these data aford a comprehensive view of a novel function of human RRS1 by promot- ing cell proliferation and could be a potential indicator for papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins.

Abstract: Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) disease or citrus greening is caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Las) and is the most devastating disease in the global citrus industry. Salicylic acid (SA) plays a central role in regulating plant defenses against pathogenic attack. SA methyltransferase (SAMT) modulates SA homeostasis by converting SA to methyl salicylate (MeSA).

Fam60a interacts with components of the Sin3a-Hdac transcriptional corepressor complex, and most Fam60a–/– embryos manifest hypoplasia of visceral organs and die in utero. Fam60a is recruited to the promoter regions of a subset of genes, with the expression of these genes being either up- or down-regulated in Fam60a–/– embryos.

Abstract: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can exert multiple deleterious effects and have been implicated in carcinogenesis. The xenoestrogen Bisphenol A (BPA) that is found in various consumer products has been involved in the dysregulation of numerous signalling pathways. In this paper, we present the analysis of a set of 94 genes that have been shown to be dysregulated in presence of BPA in ovarian cancer cell lines since we hypothesised that these genes might be of biomarker potential. This study sought to identify biomarkers of disease and biomarkers of disease- associated exposure. In silico analyses took place using gene expression data extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases. Differential expression was further validated at protein level using immunohistochemistry on an ovarian cancer tissue microarray. We found that 14 out of 94 genes are solely dysregulated in the presence of BPA, while the remaining 80 genes are already dysregulated (p-value < 0.05) in their expression pattern Citation: Zahra, A.; Dong, Q.; Hall, as a consequence of the disease.

(2014) Structural Basis for Assembly and Function of a Heterodimeric Plant Immune Receptor. Science, 344, 299-303. I II Abstract Plants have evolved intracellular NLR receptors to recognize pathogen effectors and trigger a robust immune response (ETI). The Arabidopsis NLR gene pair RPS4 (Resistance to Pseudomonas syringae 4) and RRS1 (Resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum 1) cooperates genetically and physically to recognize, amongst others, the Pseudomonas syringae effector AvrRps4. A second RPS4/RRS1-like gene pair (RPS4b/RRS1b) contributes to AvrRps4 recognition. Transient or stable overexpression of RPS4, but not RRS1 induces immunity, and RPS4, but not RRS1 depends on a canonical ATP-binding pocket for its function. Also, RRS1 interacts with both RPS4 and pathogen effectors, suggesting a model where RRS1 as a sensor recognizes effectors and conveys the information to the executor RPS4, releasing it from RRS1 negative regulation to trigger immunity.

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-15139-6 OPEN An ankyrin-repeat and WRKY-domain-containing immune receptor confers stripe rust resistance in wheat ✉ Huan Wang 1,2, Shenghao Zou1, Yiwen Li 2, Fanyun Lin 2 & Dingzhong Tang1 Perception of pathogenic effectors in plants often relies on nucleotide-binding domain (NBS) and leucine-rich-repeat-containing (NLR) proteins. Some NLRs contain additional domains 1234567890():,; that function as integrated decoys for pathogen effector targets and activation of immune signalling. Wheat stripe rust is one of the most devastating diseases of crop plants. Here, we report the cloning of YrU1, a stripe rust resistance gene from the diploid wheat Triticum urartu, the progenitor of the A genome of hexaploid wheat. YrU1 encodes a coiled-coil-NBS-leucine- rich repeat protein with N-terminal ankyrin-repeat and C-terminal WRKY domains, repre- senting a unique NLR structure in plants. Database searches identify similar architecture only in wheat relatives. Transient expression of YrU1 in Nicotiana benthamiana does not induce cell death in the absence of pathogens. The ankyrin-repeat and coiled-coil domains of YrU1 self- associate, suggesting that homodimerisation is critical for YrU1 function. The identification and cloning of this disease resistance gene sheds light on NLR protein function and may facilitate breeding to control the devastating wheat stripe rust disease. 1 State Key Laboratory of Ecological Control of Fujian-Taiwan Crop Pests, Key Laboratory of Ministry of Education for Genetics, Breeding and Multiple Utilization of Crops, Plant Immunity Center, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou 350002, China. 2 State Key Laboratory of Plant Cell and Chromosome ✉ Engineering, Institute of Genetics and Development Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China.
