Catalog Design and Editing: David Turell, Jonathan Meade To our valued customers In 2012, we celebrated the twentieth year since the invention of the award-winning differential display technology. During this time, differential display (DD) has become the most widely used methodology to clone differentially expressed genes. In fact, the number of publications using differential display has exceeded the number of publications using all the other competitive methods. Despite the flurry of interest in DNA microarrays and next-gen sequencing, there have still been more scientists who have published the successful cloning of differentially expressed genes using DD than those who used other techniques. See the Technical Notes Section (page 64) which has more information on advantages of DD over microarray and other competing technologies. In 1998, in recognition of the great impact of DD technology, its inventors, Drs. Peng Liang and Arthur Pardee, were awarded the prestigious Molecular Bioanalytics GenHunter Corporation, Nashville, TN, USA prize by the German Society of Molecular Biology and Biological Chemistry (see page 6). experience and relentless pursuit of perfection in differential display, we are confident that you will be able to obtain more In addition to the sheer number of differentially expressed valuable information on gene expression profiling from us genes cloned by differential display, the biological functions than from any other methodology. of these genes are emerging.

  • A Chemical Proteomic Approach to Investigate Rab Prenylation in Living Systems
    A chemical proteomic approach to investigate Rab prenylation in living systems By Alexandra Fay Helen Berry A thesis submitted to Imperial College London in candidature for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Imperial College. Department of Chemistry Imperial College London Exhibition Road London SW7 2AZ August 2012 Declaration of Originality I, Alexandra Fay Helen Berry, hereby declare that this thesis, and all the work presented in it, is my own and that it has been generated by me as the result of my own original research, unless otherwise stated. 2 Abstract Protein prenylation is an important post-translational modification that occurs in all eukaryotes; defects in the prenylation machinery can lead to toxicity or pathogenesis. Prenylation is the modification of a protein with a farnesyl or geranylgeranyl isoprenoid, and it facilitates protein- membrane and protein-protein interactions. Proteins of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases are almost all prenylated and of these the Rab family of proteins forms the largest group. Rab proteins are geranylgeranylated with up to two geranylgeranyl groups by the enzyme Rab geranylgeranyltransferase (RGGT). Prenylation of Rabs allows them to locate to the correct intracellular membranes and carry out their roles in vesicle trafficking. Traditional methods for probing prenylation involve the use of tritiated geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate which is hazardous, has lengthy detection times, and is insufficiently sensitive. The work described in this thesis developed systems for labelling Rabs and other geranylgeranylated proteins using a technique known as tagging-by-substrate, enabling rapid analysis of defective Rab prenylation in cells and tissues. An azide analogue of the geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate substrate of RGGT (AzGGpp) was applied for in vitro prenylation of Rabs by recombinant enzyme.

Abnormalities and dysregulation University of Maryland Medical of apoptosis contribute to the pathophysiology of multiple disease processes. Apoptosis is strictly Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA regulated by several positive and negative feedback mechanisms that regulate cell death and determine the final outcome after cell exposure to apoptotic stimuli. Mitochondria and caspases are central components of the regulatory mechanisms of apoptosis. Recently, noncaspase pathways of apoptosis have been explored through the studies of apoptosis-inducing factor and endonu- clease G. Multiple difficulties in the apoptosis research relate to apoptosis detection and imaging. For personal use only. This article reviews current understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of apoptosis.

The concept that cells must be lost from the normal tissues to balance their mitotic activity was first proposed by the German anatomist Ludwig Graper,1 who proposed that chromolysis must exist in the cells that will be eliminated.

  • Structural Basis of Membrane Trafficking by Rab Family Small G Protein
    Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2013, 14, 8912-8923; doi:10.3390/ijms14058912 OPEN ACCESS International Journal of Molecular Sciences ISSN 1422-0067 www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms Review Structural Basis of Membrane Trafficking by Rab Family Small G Protein Hyun Ho Park School of Biotechnology and Graduate School of Biochemistry, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan 712-749, Korea; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-53-810-3045; Fax: +82-53-810-4769 Received: 1 March 2013; in revised form: 1 April 2013 / Accepted: 10 April 2013 / Published: 25 April 2013 Abstract: The Ras-superfamily of small G proteins is a family of GTP hydrolases that is regulated by GTP/GDP binding states. One member of the Ras-superfamily, Rab, is involved in the regulation of vesicle trafficking, which is critical to endocytosis, biosynthesis, secretion, cell differentiation and cell growth. The active form of the Rab proteins, which contains GTP, can recruit specific binding partners, such as sorting adaptors, tethering factors, kinases, phosphatases and motor proteins, thereby influencing vesicle formation, transport, and tethering. Many Rab proteins share the same interacting partners and perform unique roles in specific locations. Because functional loss of the Rab pathways has been implicated in a variety of diseases, the Rab GTPase family has been extensively investigated. In this review, we summarize Rab GTPase- mediated membrane trafficking while focusing on the structures of Rab protein and Rab-effector complexes. This review provides detailed information that helps explain how the Rab GTPase family is involved in membrane trafficking. Keywords: membrane trafficking; ras-superfamily; small G protein; rab GTPase; protein structure 1.
