Atlas Genet Cytogenet Oncol Haematol 2009; 7 III Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology ABL1 (v-abl Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1) Identity Other names ABL HGNC (Hugo) ABL1 Location 9q34.1 Location_base_pair Starts at 132700652 and ends at 132752879 bp from pter ( according to hg18- Mar_2006) [Mapping] Local_order CAN is more telomeric, TAN1 even more in 9q34.3. DNA/RNA DNA diagram Description 12 exons; 230 kb. Transcription Alternate splicing: 1a and 1b are 5' alternative exons; mRNA of 6 and 7 kb (with 1a and 1b respectively), giving rise to 2 protein of 145 kDa. Protein Protein diagram Description 1130-1143 amino acids; 4 domains: of which are SH (SRC homology) domains; NH2- term -- domain 1: SH3 (where can bind the binding protein BP1, to inhibit SH1 activation) and SH2 (with high affinity towards BCR first exon) -- domain 2: SH1 (with a self-phosphorylable tyrosine) -- 'domain' 3: nuclear localization domain (DNA binding, but not during mitosis) -- domain 4: actin binding (cytoskeleton) --COOH-term; note: 1b (but not the 1a alternative) myristylable allowing anchorage to the membrane. Normal ABL has a tri-dimensional structure which is tightly preserved in a closed, inactive conformation order to prevent oncogenic activation. The maintenance of this inactive conformation is possible by: 1- the "latching" of the myristilated NH2-terminal sequence which is directly linked to a myristilation recognition sequence on the c-lobe of the SH1 kinase domain; 2-The close contact between SH3 and SH2 domain 3- The interactions between SH3 domain and the C-lobe of the kinase domain. These interactions clamp the structure and prevent the kinase to switch to an active conformation, a process which requires the phosphorylation of Tyr 412 residue and the "unlatching" of the myristoyl group from the C-Lobe of the kinase domain. The attachment of proline-rich SH2 and SH3 ligands leads to the complete switch of the protein to an open, active conformation of the kinase. The NH2-terminal myristilation (autoregulatory role) is deleted during the t(9;22) translocation. Expression Ubiquitously expressed, c-ABL K/O phenotype is lethal. Localisation c-abl is localized to the nucleus, plasma membrane and actin cytoskeleton. Function c-ABL exhibit a permanent nuclear and cytoplasmic shuttling activity, driven by 3 Atlas Genet Cytogenet Oncol Haematol 2009; 6 757 nuclear localisation signals (NLS) and a single nuclear export signal (NES) close to the C-terminal region. Recent data suggest that nuclear and cytoplasmic ABL may have different functions. 1- Nuclear c-ABL plays a major role in the regulation of cell death after DNA damage. All DNA damage inducing agents activate nuclear c-ABL kinase in a ATM- dependent manner and in the presence of the p53-homolog p73 protein. The latter is physically associated with c-ABL after DNA damage through the SH3 domain of c-ABL. DNA damage also activates simultanously p53 pathway, leading to the activation of Rb which induces growth arrest and protects cells from apoptosis. The exacts mechanisms of apoptosis induced by c-ABL are unknown. The translocation of cytoplasmic c-ABL to the nucleus has been shown to be due to its release from 14-3-3 proteins to which c-

    ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Robert Daniel Macholan May 2011 ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION Robert Daniel Macholan Thesis Approved: Accepted: _______________________________ _______________________________ Advisor Department Chair Dr. Zhong-Hui Duan Dr. Chien-Chung Chan _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the College Dr. Chien-Chung Chan Dr. Chand K. Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. 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.

Bcl2L12 (for Bcl2-like 12) is a cytoplasmic and nuclear protein that is overexpressed in primary GBM and functions to inhibit post-mitochondrial apoptosis signaling. Here, we show that nuclear Bcl2L12 physically and functionally interacts with the p53 tumor suppressor, as evidenced by the capacity of Bcl2L12 to (1) enable bypass of replicative senescence without concomitant loss of p53 or p19Arf, (2) inhibit p53-dependent DNA damage-induced apoptosis, (3) impede the capacity of p53 to bind some of its target gene promoters, and (4) attenuate endogenous p53-directed transcriptomic changes following genotoxic stress.

  • Defining Functional Interactions During Biogenesis of Epithelial Junctions
    ARTICLE Received 11 Dec 2015 | Accepted 13 Oct 2016 | Published 6 Dec 2016 | Updated 5 Jan 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms13542 OPEN Defining functional interactions during biogenesis of epithelial junctions J.C. Erasmus1,*, S. Bruche1,*,w, L. Pizarro1,2,*, N. Maimari1,3,*, T. Poggioli1,w, C. Tomlinson4,J.Lees5, I. Zalivina1,w, A. Wheeler1,w, A. Alberts6, A. Russo2 & V.M.M. Braga1 In spite of extensive recent progress, a comprehensive understanding of how actin cytoskeleton remodelling supports stable junctions remains to be established. Here we design a platform that integrates actin functions with optimized phenotypic clustering and identify new cytoskeletal proteins, their functional hierarchy and pathways that modulate E-cadherin adhesion. Depletion of EEF1A, an actin bundling protein, increases E-cadherin levels at junctions without a corresponding reinforcement of cell–cell contacts. This unexpected result reflects a more dynamic and mobile junctional actin in EEF1A-depleted cells. A partner for EEF1A in cadherin contact maintenance is the formin DIAPH2, which interacts with EEF1A. In contrast, depletion of either the endocytic regulator TRIP10 or the Rho GTPase activator VAV2 reduces E-cadherin levels at junctions. TRIP10 binds to and requires VAV2 function for its junctional localization. Overall, we present new conceptual insights on junction stabilization, which integrate known and novel pathways with impact for epithelial morphogenesis, homeostasis and diseases. 1 National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Computing Department, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 3 Bioengineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 4 Department of Surgery & Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.

Abstract: Members of the human Zyxin family are LIM domain-containing proteins that perform critical cellular functions and are indispensable for cellular integrity. Despite their importance, not much is known about their structure, functions, interactions and dynamics. To provide insights into these, we used a set of in-silico tools and databases and analyzed their amino acid sequence, phylogeny, post-translational modifications, structure-dynamics, molecular interactions, and func- tions. Our analysis revealed that zyxin members are ohnologs. Presence of a conserved nuclear export signal composed of LxxLxL/LxxxLxL consensus sequence, as well as a possible nuclear localization signal, suggesting that Zyxin family members may have nuclear and cytoplasmic roles.

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.

  • Alpha;-Actinin-4 Promotes Metastasis in Gastric Cancer
    Laboratory Investigation (2017) 97, 1084–1094 © 2017 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/17 α-Actinin-4 promotes metastasis in gastric cancer Xin Liu and Kent-Man Chu Metastasis increases the mortality rate of gastric cancer, which is the third leading cause of cancer-associated deaths worldwide. This study aims to identify the genes promoting metastasis of gastric cancer (GC). A human cell motility PCR array was used to analyze a pair of tumor and non-tumor tissue samples from a patient with stage IV GC (T3N3M1). Expression of the dysregulated genes was then evaluated in GC tissue samples (n = 10) and cell lines (n =6) via qPCR. Expression of α-actinin-4 (ACTN4) was validated in a larger sample size (n = 47) by qPCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry. Knockdown of ACTN4 with specific siRNAs was performed in GC cells, and adhesion assays, transwell invasion assays and migration assays were used to evaluate the function of these cells. Expression of potential targets of ACTN4 were then evaluated by qPCR. Thirty upregulated genes (greater than twofold) were revealed by the PCR array. We focused on ACTN4 because it was upregulated in 6 out of 10 pairs of tissue samples and 5 out of 6 GC cell lines. Further study indicated that ACTN4 was upregulated in 22/32 pairs of tissue samples at stage III & IV (P = 0.0069). Knockdown of ACTN4 in GC cells showed no significant effect on cell proliferation, but significantly increased cell-matrix adhesion, as well as reduced migration and invasion of AGS, MKN7 and NCI-N87 cells.

  • Inhibition of Mitochondrial Complex II in Neuronal Cells Triggers Unique
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Inhibition of mitochondrial complex II in neuronal cells triggers unique pathways culminating in autophagy with implications for neurodegeneration Sathyanarayanan Ranganayaki1, Neema Jamshidi2, Mohamad Aiyaz3, Santhosh‑Kumar Rashmi4, Narayanappa Gayathri4, Pulleri Kandi Harsha5, Balasundaram Padmanabhan6 & Muchukunte Mukunda Srinivas Bharath7* Mitochondrial dysfunction and neurodegeneration underlie movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease and Manganism among others. As a corollary, inhibition of mitochondrial complex I (CI) and complex II (CII) by toxins 1‑methyl‑4‑phenylpyridinium (MPP+) and 3‑nitropropionic acid (3‑NPA) respectively, induced degenerative changes noted in such neurodegenerative diseases. We aimed to unravel the down‑stream pathways associated with CII inhibition and compared with CI inhibition and the Manganese (Mn) neurotoxicity. Genome‑wide transcriptomics of N27 neuronal cells exposed to 3‑NPA, compared with MPP+ and Mn revealed varied transcriptomic profle. Along with mitochondrial and synaptic pathways, Autophagy was the predominant pathway diferentially regulated in the 3‑NPA model with implications for neuronal survival. This pathway was unique to 3‑NPA, as substantiated by in silico modelling of the three toxins. Morphological and biochemical validation of autophagy markers in the cell model of 3‑NPA revealed incomplete autophagy mediated by mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 2 (mTORC2) pathway. Interestingly, Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor
