Summary Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1), a 1462-residue mitochondrial enzyme, catalyzes the entry of ammonia into the urea cycle, which converts ammonia, the neurotoxic waste product of protein catabolism, into barely toxic urea. The urea cycle inborn error and rare disease CPS1 deficiency (CPS1D) is inherited with mendelian autosomal recessive inheritance, being due to CPS1 gene mutations (>200 mutations reported), and causing life-threatening hyperammonemia. We have produced recombinantly human CPS1 (hCPS1) in a baculovirus/insect cell expression system, isolating the enzyme in active and highly purified form, in massive amounts. This has allowed enzyme crystallization for structural studies by X-ray diffraction (an off-shoot of the present studies). This hCPS1 production system allows site-directed mutagenesis and enzyme characterization as catalyst (activity, kinetics) and as protein (stability, aggregation state, domain composition). We have revealed previously unexplored traits of hCPS1 such as its domain composition, the ability of glycerol to replace the natural and essential CPS1 activator N-acetyl-L- glutamate (NAG), and the hCPS1 protection (chemical chaperoning) by NAG and by its pharmacological analog N-carbamyl-L-glutamate (NCG). We have exploited this system to explore the effects on the activity, kinetic parameters and stability/folding of the enzyme, and to test the disease-causing nature, of mutations identified in patients with CPS1 deficiency (CPS1D). These results, supplemented with those obtained with other non-clinical mutations, have provided novel information on the functions of three non- catalytic domains of CPS1. We have introduced three CPS1D-associated mutations and one trivial polymorphism in the glutaminase-like domain of CPS1, supporting a stabilizing and an activity-enhancing function of this non-catalytic domain. Two mutations introduced into the bicarbonate phosphorylation domain have shed light on bicarbonate binding and have directly confirmed the importance of this domain for NAG binding to the distant (in the sequence) C-terminal CPS1 domain. The introduction of 18 CPS1D-associated missense mutations mapping in a clinically highly eloquent central non-catalytic domain have proven the disease- causing nature of most of these mutations while showing that in most of the cases they trigger enzyme misfolding and/or destabilization. These results, by proving an important role of this domain in the structural integration of the multidomain CPS1 protein, have led us to call this domain the Integrating Domain. Finally, we have examined the effects of eight CPS1D-associated mutations, of one trivial polymorphism and of five non-clinical mutations, all of them mapping in the C-terminal domain of the enzyme where NAG binds, whereas we have re-analyzed prior results with another four clinical and five non- clinical mutations affecting this domain. We have largely confirmed the pathogenic nature of the clinical mutations, predominantly because

  • A NOVEL FORMULATION of HERBS with POTENT ANTI-AGEING ACTIVITY Mohit M
    European Journal of Bioinformatics, Vol. 2:1-5, 2014 A NOVEL FORMULATION OF HERBS WITH POTENT ANTI-AGEING ACTIVITY Mohit M. Jaina, Nirmala Kumaria, Geeta Raib* aNEISS Wellness India Limited, Mumbai, India. bDepartment of Molecular and Human Genetics, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi 221005, India. ABSTRACT Ageing is characterized by a progressive deterioration of physiological functions and metabolic processes. Sirtuin (SIRT1) is a NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase which is a human ortholog of the yeast SIR2 protein. The activation of SIRr2 affects wide variety of cellular processes ranging from metabolism, cell cycle, growth and differentiation, inflammation, senescence, apoptosis, stress response and ageing. There are natural anti- ageing drugs in the market like Resveraterol but some studies suggest that due to its interaction with contraceptive pills it should not be consumed by women taking them. Although, a diet rich in antioxidants seems to offer hope in delaying the onset of unhealthy disorders that accompany ageing, however no clinical treatment using natural herbs has yet been developed and natural anti-aging drugs are still unavailable. In the present study, we evaluated the binding of active ligands present in real grass with the SIRT1 and SIRT5 receptor and compared their binding energy and affinity with other reference anti-ageing drugs present in the market. A high throughput screening comprising of molecular docking, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity predictions, logP values and percentage of human oral absorption value led to the identification of three potential compounds present in ‘Live Green Real Grass’ which could be considered for anti–ageing activity with better binding affinities than the reference drugs used.

Very recently, sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) has received considerable attention due to that it was found to have weak deacetylase activity but strong desuccinylase, demalonylase and deglutarylase activities, and it was also found to be associated with several human diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease. In this review, we for the first time summarized the structure characteristics, known peptide and small-molecule inhibitors of SIRT5, extracted someclues from current available information and introduced some feasible, practical in silico methods, which might be useful in further efforts to develop new SIRT5 inhibitors.

Hepatocellular 20 carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among men 21 worldwide, and finding effective targets for HCC treatment and prevention is urgently 22 needed. In the present study, we confirmed that mitochondrial sirtuins, particularly 23 SIRT5, are more highly expressed in HCC cell lines than in normal liver cell lines. 24 Moreover, SIRT5 knockdown suppresses HCC cell proliferation and SIRT5 25 overexpression promotes HCC cell proliferation. Furthermore, we verified that SIRT5 26 knockdown increases HCC cell apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway.

These cells are rich in mitochondria and peroxisomes, the two organelles that mediate fatty acid oxidation. Emerging evidence shows that both fatty acid pathways are regulated by reversible posttranslational modifications, particularly by lysine acylation. Sirtuin 5 (Sirt5), which localizes to both mitochondria and peroxisomes, reverses post- translational lysine acylation on several enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation. However, the role of the Sirt5 in regulating kidney energy metabolism has yet to be determined. Methods We subjected male Sirt5-deficient mice (either +/2 or 2/2) and wild-type controls, as well as isolated proximal tubule cells, to two different AKI models (ischemia-induced or cisplatin-induced AKI). We assessed kidney function and injury with standard techniques and measured fatty acid oxidation 14 14 by the catabolism of C-labeled palmitate to CO2. 2/2 Results Sirt5 was highly expressed in proximal tubular epithelial cells.
