Identification of a Novel CHN1 P.(Phe213val) Variant in a Large Han Chinese Family with Congenital Duane Retraction Syndrome
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identifcation of a novel CHN1 p.(Phe213Val) variant in a large Han Chinese family with congenital Duane retraction syndrome Tai‑Cheng Zhou1,3, Wen‑Hua Duan1,3, Xiao‑Lin Fu2,3, Qin Zhu1, Li‑Yun Guo1, Yuan Zhou1, Zhi‑Juan Hua1, Xue‑Jiao Li1, Dong‑Mei Yang1, Jie‑Ying Zhang1, Jie Yin1, Xiao‑Fan Zhang1, Guang‑Long Zhou1 & Min Hu1* Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) is a neuromuscular dysfunction of the eyes. Although many causative genes of DRS have been identifed in Europe and the United States, few reports have been published in regard to Chinese DRS. The aim of the present study was to explore the genetic defect of DRS in a Chinese family. Exome sequencing was used to identify the disease‑causing gene for the two afected family members. Ophthalmic and physical examinations, as well as genetic screenings for variants in chimerin 1 (CHN1), were performed for all family members. Functional analyses of a CHN1 variant in 293T cells included a Rac‑GTP activation assay, α2‑chimaerin translocation assay, and co‑immunoprecipitation assay. Genetic analysis revealed a NM_001822.7: c.637T > G variant in the CHN1 gene, which resulted in the substitution of a highly conserved C1 domain with valine at codon 213 (NP_001813.1: p.(Phe213Val)) (ClinVar Accession Number: SCV001335305). In-silico analysis revealed that the p.(Phe213Val) substitution afected the protein stability and connections among the amino acids of CHN1 in terms of its tertiary protein structure. Functional studies indicated that the p.(Phe213Val) substitution reduced Rac‑GTP activity and enhanced membrane translocation in response to phorbol‑myristoyl acetate (PMA). -

Inflammatory signaling through macrophages and the innate immune system are increasingly recognized as important contributors to multiple acute and chronic disease processes. Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical that plays an important role in immune and inflammatory responses as an important intercellular messenger. In addition, NO has an important role in inflammatory responses in mucosal environments such as the ocular surface. Histatin peptides are well-established antimicrobial and wound healing agents. These peptides are important in multiple biological systems, playing roles in responses to the environment and immunomodulation.

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. -

Mannosidases Are the Putative Catabolic Enzymes Which
THE CHARACTERIZATION OF A NOVEL HUMAN CORE-SPECIFIC LYSOSOMAL α1-6MANNOSIDASE INVOLVED IN N-GLYCAN CATABOLISM by CHAEHO PARK (Under the Direction of Kelley W. Moremen) ABSTRACT In humans and rodents lysosomal catabolism of Man3GlcNAc2 core N-glycan structures results from the concerted actions of exoglycosidases including the broad specificity lysosomal α- mannosidase (LysMan), a core-specific α1-6mannosidase, and β-mannosidase, as well as the core chitobiose cleavage by an di-N-acetylchitobiase. In ungulates and carnivora, both the chitobiase and the α1-6mannosidase enzyme activities are absent suggesting a co-regulation of the two enzymes. We describe here the cloning, expression, purification and characterization of the human core-specific α1-6mannosidase with similarity to members of the glycosylhydrolase family 38. The recombinant enzyme had a pH optimum of 4.0, was potently inhibited by swainsonine and 1,4-dideoxy1,4-imino-D-mannitol, and was stimulated by Co+2. NMR-based time course substrate specificity studies comparing the α1-6mannosidase with human LysMan revealed that the former enzyme selectively cleaved the α1-6mannose residue from Man3GlcNAc, but not Man3GlcNAc2 or other larger high mannose structures, indicating the requirement for chitobiase action prior to α1-6mannosidase cleavage. In contrast, LysMan cleaved all of the α-linked mannose residues from Man9-5GlcNAc2, Man3GlcNAc2, or Man3GlcNAc structures except the core α1-6mannose residue. Transcripts encoding the α1-6mannosidase were ubiquitously expressed in human tissues and expressed sequence tag searches in various mammalian species demonstrated a similar distribution in species-specific expression as the chitobiase. No expressed sequence tags were identified for bovine α1-6mannosidase despite the identification of two homologs in the bovine genome. -
A Novel Secretion and Online-Cleavage Strategy for Production of Cecropin a in Escherichia Coli
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A novel secretion and online- cleavage strategy for production of cecropin A in Escherichia coli Received: 14 March 2017 Meng Wang 1, Minhua Huang1, Junjie Zhang1, Yi Ma1, Shan Li1 & Jufang Wang1,2 Accepted: 23 June 2017 Antimicrobial peptides, promising antibiotic candidates, are attracting increasing research attention. Published: xx xx xxxx Current methods for production of antimicrobial peptides are chemical synthesis, intracellular fusion expression, or direct separation and purifcation from natural sources. However, all these methods are costly, operation-complicated and low efciency. Here, we report a new strategy for extracellular secretion and online-cleavage of antimicrobial peptides on the surface of Escherichia coli, which is cost-efective, simple and does not require complex procedures like cell disruption and protein purifcation. Analysis by transmission electron microscopy and semi-denaturing detergent agarose gel electrophoresis indicated that fusion proteins contain cecropin A peptides can successfully be secreted and form extracellular amyloid aggregates at the surface of Escherichia coli on the basis of E. coli curli secretion system and amyloid characteristics of sup35NM. These amyloid aggregates can be easily collected by simple centrifugation and high-purity cecropin A peptide with the same antimicrobial activity as commercial peptide by chemical synthesis was released by efcient self-cleavage of Mxe GyrA intein. Here, we established a novel expression strategy for the production of antimicrobial peptides, which dramatically reduces the cost and simplifes purifcation procedures and gives new insights into producing antimicrobial and other commercially-viable peptides. Because of their potent, fast, long-lasting activity against a broad range of microorganisms and lack of bacterial resistance, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have received increasing attention1. -

A Human Population-Based Organotypic in Vitro Model for Cardiotoxicity Screening1
ALTEX preprint published July 8, 2018 doi:10.14573/altex.1805301 Research Article A human population-based organotypic in vitro model for cardiotoxicity screening1 Fabian A. Grimm1, Alexander Blanchette1, John S. House2, Kyle Ferguson1, Nan-Hung Hsieh1, Chimeddulam Dalaijamts1, Alec A. Wright1, Blake Anson5, Fred A. Wright3,4, Weihsueh A. Chiu1, Ivan Rusyn1 1Department of Veterinary Integrative Biosciences, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX, USA; 2Bioinformatics Research Center, 3Department of Biological Sciences, and 4Department of Statistics, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, USA; 5Cellular Dynamics International, Madison, WI, USA Abstract Assessing inter-individual variability in responses to xenobiotics remains a substantial challenge, both in drug development with respect to pharmaceuticals and in public health with respect to environmental chemicals. Although approaches exist to characterize pharmacokinetic variability, there are no methods to routinely address pharmacodynamic variability. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of characterizing inter-individual variability in a human in vitro model. Specifically, we hypothesized that genetic variability across a population of iPSC- derived cardiomyocytes translates into reproducible variability in both baseline phenotypes and drug responses. We measured baseline and drug-related effects in iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes from 27 healthy donors on kinetic Ca2+ flux and high-content live cell imaging. Cells were treated in concentration-response with cardiotoxic drugs: isoproterenol (β- adrenergic receptor agonist/positive inotrope), propranolol (β-adrenergic receptor antagonist/negative inotrope), and cisapride (hERG channel inhibitor/QT prolongation). Cells from four of the 27 donors were further evaluated in terms of baseline and treatment-related gene expression. Reproducibility of phenotypic responses was evaluated across batches and time. -
Characterization of Glomerular Extracellular Matrix in Iga Nephropathy by Proteomic Analysis of Laser-Captured Microdissected Gl
Paunas et al. BMC Nephrology (2019) 20:410 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12882-019-1598-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Characterization of glomerular extracellular matrix in IgA nephropathy by proteomic analysis of laser-captured microdissected glomeruli Flavia Teodora Ioana Paunas1,2* , Kenneth Finne2, Sabine Leh2,3, Tarig Al-Hadi Osman2, Hans-Peter Marti2,4, Frode Berven5 and Bjørn Egil Vikse1,2 Abstract Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) involves mesangial matrix expansion, but the proteomic composition of this matrix is unknown. The present study aimed to characterize changes in extracellular matrix in IgAN. Methods: In the present study we used mass spectrometry-based proteomics in order to quantitatively compare protein abundance between glomeruli of patients with IgAN (n = 25) and controls with normal biopsy findings (n = 15). Results: Using a previously published paper by Lennon et al. and cross-referencing with the Matrisome database we identified 179 extracellular matrix proteins. In the comparison between IgAN and controls, IgAN glomeruli showed significantly higher abundance of extracellular matrix structural proteins (e.g periostin, vitronectin, and extracellular matrix protein 1) and extracellular matrix associated proteins (e.g. azurocidin, myeloperoxidase, neutrophil elastase, matrix metalloproteinase-9 and matrix metalloproteinase 2). Periostin (fold change 3.3) and azurocidin (3.0) had the strongest fold change between IgAN and controls; periostin was also higher in IgAN patients who progressed to ESRD as compared to patients who did not. Conclusion: IgAN is associated with widespread changes of the glomerular extracellular matrix proteome. Proteins important in glomerular sclerosis or inflammation seem to be most strongly increased and periostin might be an important marker of glomerular damage in IgAN.
