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.

  • Bicyclomycin Sensitivity and Resistance Affect Rho Factor-Mediated Transcription Termination in the Tna Operon of Escherichia Coli
    JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY, Aug. 1995, p. 4451–4456 Vol. 177, No. 15 0021-9193/95/$04.0010 Copyright 1995, American Society for Microbiology Bicyclomycin Sensitivity and Resistance Affect Rho Factor-Mediated Transcription Termination in the tna Operon of Escherichia coli CHARLES YANOFSKY* AND VIRGINIA HORN Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305-5020 Received 13 March 1995/Accepted 27 May 1995 The growth-inhibiting drug bicyclomycin, known to be an inhibitor of Rho factor activity in Escherichia coli, was shown to increase basal level expression of the tryptophanase (tna) operon and to allow growth of a tryptophan auxotroph on indole. The drug also relieved polarity in the trp operon and permitted growth of a trp double nonsense mutant on indole. Nine bicyclomycin-resistant mutants were isolated and partially characterized. Recombination data and genetic and biochemical complementation analyses suggest that five have mutations that affect rho, three have mutations that affect rpoB, and one has a mutation that affects a third locus, near rpoB. Individual mutants showed decreased, normal, or increased basal-level expression of the tna operon. All but one of the resistant mutants displayed greatly increased tna operon expression when grown in the presence of bicyclomycin. The tna operon of the wild-type drug-sensitive parent was also shown to be highly expressed during growth with noninhibitory concentrations of bicyclomycin. These findings demonstrate that resistance to this drug may be acquired by mutations at any one of three loci, two of which appear to be rho and rpoB. Zwiefka et al. (24) found that the antibiotic bicyclomycin segment and interacts with the transcribing RNA polymerase (bicozamycin), an inhibitor of the growth of several gram- molecule, causing it to terminate transcription (7, 9).

We provide a categorization of 375 rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis (10), and TLR5 in human LRR-containing proteins, almost half of which lack other Legionnaire disease (11). identifiable functional domains. We clustered human LRR proteins Most LRR domains consist of a chain of between 2 and 45 by first assigning LRRs to LRR classes and then grouping the proteins LRRs (12). Each repeat in turn is typically 20 to 30 residues long based on these class assignments, revealing several of the resulting and can be divided into a highly conserved segment (HCS) fol- protein groups containing a large number of proteins with certain lowed by a variable segment (VS).

Haddad1,10,11,13,* The hypoxic conditions at high altitudes present a challenge for survival, causing pressure for adaptation. Interestingly, many high- altitude denizens (particularly in the Andes) are maladapted, with a condition known as chronic mountain sickness (CMS) or Monge disease. To decode the genetic basis of this disease, we sequenced and compared the whole genomes of 20 Andean subjects (10 with CMS and 10 without). We discovered 11 regions genome-wide with significant differences in haplotype frequencies consistent with selective sweeps. In these regions, two genes (an erythropoiesis regulator, SENP1, and an oncogene, ANP32D) had a higher transcrip- tional response to hypoxia in individuals with CMS relative to those without. We further found that downregulating the orthologs of these genes in flies dramatically enhanced survival rates under hypoxia, demonstrating that suppression of SENP1 and ANP32D plays an essential role in hypoxia tolerance.
