Efficient Professional Protein and Antibody Platforms NDUFAF1 Antibody Basic information: Catalog No.: UPA63763 Source: Rabbit Size: 50ul/100ul Clonality: monoclonal Concentration: 1mg/ml Isotype: Rabbit IgG Purification: Protein A purified. Useful Information: WB:1:1000 ICC:1:50-1:200 Applications: IHC:1:50-1:200 FC:1:50-1:100 Reactivity: Human Specificity: This antibody recognizes NDUFAF1 protein. Immunogen: Synthetic peptide within C terminal human NDUFAF1. This gene encodes a complex I assembly factor protein. Complex I (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) catalyzes the transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) in the first step of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, resulting in the translocation of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The encoded protein is required for assembly of complex I, and mutations in this gene are a cause of mitochondrial complex I deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for Description: this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 19. Part of the mitochondrial complex I assembly (MCIA) com- plex. The complex comprises at least TMEM126B, NDUFAF1, ECSIT, and ACAD9. Interacts with ECSIT. Interacts with ACAD9. At early stages of com- plex I assembly, it is found in intermediate subcomplexes that contain dif- ferent subunits including NDUFB6, NDUFA6, NDUFA9, NDUFS3, NDUFS7, ND1, ND2 and ND3 Uniprot: Q9Y375 Human BiowMW: 38 kDa Buffer: 1*TBS (pH7.4), 1%BSA, 50%Glycerol.

Molecular mechanism of ACAD9 in mitochondrial respiratory complex 1 assembly Chuanwu Xia1, Baoying Lou1, Zhuji Fu1, Al-Walid Mohsen2, Jerry Vockley2, and Jung-Ja P. Kim1 1Department of Biochemistry, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 53226, USA 2Department of Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, Pittsburgh, PA 15224, USA Abstract ACAD9 belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, which catalyzes the α-β dehydrogenation of fatty acyl-CoA thioesters. Thus, it is involved in fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO). However, it is now known that the primary function of ACAD9 is as an essential chaperone for mitochondrial respiratory complex 1 assembly. ACAD9 interacts with ECSIT and NDUFAF1, forming the mitochondrial complex 1 assembly (MCIA) complex. Although the role of MCIA in the complex 1 assembly pathway is well studied, little is known about the molecular mechanism of the interactions among these three assembly factors. Our current studies reveal that when ECSIT interacts with ACAD9, the flavoenzyme loses the FAD cofactor and consequently loses its FAO activity, demonstrating that the two roles of ACAD9 are not compatible. ACAD9 binds to the carboxy-terminal half (C-ECSIT), and NDUFAF1 binds to the amino-terminal half of ECSIT. Although the binary complex of ACAD9 with ECSIT or with C-ECSIT is unstable and aggregates easily, the ternary complex of ACAD9-ECSIT-NDUFAF1 (i.e., the MCIA complex) is soluble and extremely stable. -

Abstract: Mitochondria are critical organelles that play a key role in cellular metabolism, survival, and homeostasis. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease. The function of mitochondria is critically regulated by several mitochondrial protein kinases, including the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-induced kinase 1 (PINK1). The focus of PINK1 research has been centered on neuronal diseases. Recent studies have revealed a close link between PINK1 and many other diseases including kidney diseases. This review will provide a concise summary of PINK1 and its regulation of mitochondrial function in health and disease. The physiological role of PINK1 in the major cells involved in diabetic kidney disease including proximal tubular cells and podocytes will also be summarized. Collectively, these studies suggested that targeting PINK1 may offer a promising alternative for the treatment of diabetic kidney disease.

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. -

We report a strategy of focused candidate gene prediction, high-throughput sequencing and experimental validation to uncover the molecular basis of mitochondrial complex I disorders. We created seven pools of DNA from a cohort of 103 cases and 42 healthy controls and then performed deep sequencing of 103 candidate genes to identify 151 rare variants that were predicted to affect protein function. We established genetic diagnoses in 13 of 60 previously unsolved cases using confirmatory experiments, including cDNA complementation to show that mutations in NUBPL and FOXRED1 can cause complex I deficiency. Our study illustrates how large-scale sequencing, coupled with functional prediction and experimental validation, can be used to identify causal mutations in individual cases. Complex I of the mitochondrial respiratory chain is a large ~1-MDa assembly factors are probably required, as suggested by the 20 factors macromolecular machine composed of 45 protein subunits encoded necessary for assembly of the smaller complex IV9 and by cohort by both the nuclear and mitochondrial (mtDNA) genomes. -

J Transl Med (2016) 14:157 DOI 10.1186/s12967-016-0871-3 Journal of Translational Medicine RESEARCH Open Access Deciphering the gene expression profile of peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor signaling pathway in the left atria of patients with mitral regurgitation Mien‑Cheng Chen1*, Jen‑Ping Chang2, Yu‑Sheng Lin3, Kuo‑Li Pan3, Wan‑Chun Ho1, Wen‑Hao Liu1, Tzu‑Hao Chang4, Yao‑Kuang Huang5, Chih‑Yuan Fang1 and Chien‑Jen Chen1 Abstract Background: Differentially expressed genes in the left atria of mitral regurgitation (MR) pigs have been linked to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway in the KEGG pathway. However, specific genes of the PPAR signaling pathway in the left atria of MR patients have never been explored. Methods: This study enrolled 15 MR patients with heart failure, 7 patients with aortic valve disease and heart failure, and 6 normal controls. We used PCR assay (84 genes) for PPAR pathway and quantitative RT-PCR to study specific genes of the PPAR pathway in the left atria. Results: Gene expression profiling analysis through PCR assay identified 23 genes to be differentially expressed in the left atria of MR patients compared to normal controls. The expressions of APOA1, ACADM, FABP3, ETFDH, ECH1, CPT1B, CPT2, SLC27A6, ACAA2, SMARCD3, SORBS1, EHHADH, SLC27A1, PPARGC1B, PPARA and CPT1A were significantly up-regulated, whereas the expression of PLTP was significantly down-regulated in the MR patients compared to normal controls. The expressions of HMGCS2, ACADM, FABP3, MLYCD, ECH1, ACAA2, EHHADH, CPT1A and PLTP were significantly up-regulated in the MR patients compared to patients with aortic valve disease. -

United States Office of Water EPA 822-R-16-003 Environmental Protection Mail Code 4304T May 2016 Agency Health Effects Support Document for Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) Perfluorooctanoic Acid – May 2016 i Health Effects Support Document for Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Water (4304T) Health and Ecological Criteria Division Washington, DC 20460 EPA Document Number: 822-R-16-003 May 2016 Perfluorooctanoic Acid – May 2016 ii BACKGROUND The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), as amended in 1996, requires the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to periodically publish a list of unregulated chemical contaminants known or anticipated to occur in public water systems and that may require regulation under SDWA. The SDWA also requires the Agency to make regulatory determinations on at least five contaminants on the Contaminant Candidate List (CCL) every 5 years. For each contaminant on the CCL, before EPA makes a regulatory determination, the Agency needs to obtain sufficient data to conduct analyses on the extent to which the contaminant occurs and the risk it poses to populations via drinking water. Ultimately, this information will assist the Agency in determining the most appropriate course of action in relation to the contaminant (e.g., developing a regulation to control it in drinking water, developing guidance, or deciding not to regulate it). The PFOA health assessment was initiated by the Office of Water, Office of Science and Technology in 2009. The draft Health Effects Support Document for Perfluoroctanoic Acid (PFOA) was completed in 2013 and released for public comment in February 2014. -
FOXRED1 (D-4): Sc-377010
