The detyrosination/retyrosination cycle is the most common post‐translational modification of α‐tubulin. Removal of the conserved C‐terminal tyrosine of α‐tubulin by a still elusive tubulin tyrosine carboxypeptidase, and religation of this tyrosine by a tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL), are probably common to all eukaryotes. Interestingly, for plants, the only candidates qualifying as potential TTL homologs are the tubulin tyrosine ligase‐like 12 proteins. To get insight into the biological functions of these potential TTL homologs, we cloned the rice TTL‐like 12 protein (OsTTLL12) and generated overexpression OsTTLL12‐RFP lines in both rice and tobacco BY‐2 cells. We found, unexpectedly, that overexpression of this OsTTLL12‐RFP increased the relative abundance of detyrosinated α‐tubulin in both coleoptile and seminal root, correlated with more stable microtubules. This was independent of the respective orientation of cortical microtubule, and followed by correspondingly changing growth of coleoptiles and seminal roots. A perturbed organization of phragmoplast microtubules and disoriented cell walls were further characteristics of this phenotype. Thus, the elevated tubulin detyrosination in consequence of OsTTLL12 overexpression affects structural and dynamic features of microtubules, followed by changes in the axiality of cell plate deposition and, consequently, plant growth. 相似文献

Tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL) catalyzes the post-translational retyrosination of detyrosinated α-tubulin. Despite the indispensable role of TTL in cell and organism development, its molecular mechanism of action is poorly understood. By solving crystal structures of TTL in complex with tubulin, we here demonstrate that TTL binds to the α and β subunits of tubulin and recognizes the curved conformation of the dimer. Biochemical and cellular assays revealed that specific tubulin dimer recognition controls the activity of the enzyme, and as a consequence, neuronal development. The TTL–tubulin structure further illustrates how the enzyme binds the functionally crucial C-terminal tail sequence of α-tubulin and how this interaction catalyzes the tyrosination reaction. It also reveals how TTL discriminates between α- and β-tubulin, and between different post-translationally modified forms of α-tubulin. Together, our data suggest that TTL has specifically evolved to recognize and modify tubulin, thus highlighting a fundamental role of the evolutionary conserved tubulin tyrosination cycle in regulating the microtubule cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Tubulin-tyrosine ligase (TTL), the enzyme that catalyzes the addition of a C-terminal tyrosine residue to alpha-tubulin in the tubulin tyrosination cycle, is involved in tumor progression and has a vital role in neuronal organization. We show that in mammalian fibroblasts, cytoplasmic linker protein (CLIP) 170 and other microtubule plus-end tracking proteins comprising a cytoskeleton-associated protein glycine-rich (CAP-Gly) microtubule binding domain such as CLIP-115 and p150 Glued, localize to the ends of tyrosinated microtubules but not to the ends of detyrosinated microtubules. In vitro, the head domains of CLIP-170 and of p150 Glued bind more efficiently to tyrosinated microtubules than to detyrosinated polymers. In TTL-null fibroblasts, tubulin detyrosination and CAP-Gly protein mislocalization correlate with defects in both spindle positioning during mitosis and cell morphology during interphase. These results indicate that tubulin tyrosination regulates microtubule interactions with CAP-Gly microtubule plus-end tracking proteins and provide explanations for the involvement of TTL in tumor progression and in neuronal organization. 相似文献

Four human homeo box-containing cDNAs isolated from mRNA of an SV40-transformed human fibroblast cell line have been regionally localized on the human gene map. One cDNA clone, c10, was found to be nearly identical to the previously mapped Hox-2.1 gene at 17q21. A second cDNA clone, c1, which is 87% homologous to Hox-2.2 at the nucleotide level but is distinct from Hox-2.1 and Hox-2.2, also maps to this region of human chromosome 17 and is probably another member of the Hox-2 cluster of homeo box-containing genes. The third cDNA clone, c8, in which the homeo box is approximately 84% homologous to the mouse Hox-1.1 homeo box region on mouse chromosome 6, maps to chromosome region 12q12----12q13, a region that is involved in chromosome abnormalities in human seminomas and teratomas. The fourth cDNA clone, c13, whose homeo box is approximately 73% homologous to the Hox-2.2 homeo box sequence, is located at chromosome region 2q31----q37. The human homeo box-containing cluster of genes at chromosome region 17q21 is the human cognate of the mouse homeo box-containing gene cluster on mouse chromosome 11. Other mouse homeo box-containing genes of the Antennapedia class (class I) map to mouse chromosomes 6 (Hox-1, proximal to the IgK locus) and 15 (Hox-3). A mouse gene, En-1, with an engrailed-like homeo box (class II) and flanking region maps to mouse chromosome 1 (near the dominant hemimelia gene). Neither of the class I homeo box-containing genes--c8 and c13--maps to a region of obvious homology to chromosomal positions of the presently known mouse homeo box-containing genes. 相似文献

The sequence of tubulin-tyrosine ligase (TTL), the enzyme catalyzing the ATP-dependent posttranslational addition of a tyrosine to the carboxyterminal end of detyrosinated alpha-tubulin, has been determined. TTL from bovine and porcine brain was purified by immunoaffinity chromatography and extensively characterized by protein sequencing. Oligonucleotides derived from the protein sequence were synthesized and partial cDNA sequences were obtained using reversed transcribed brain mRNA in polymerase chain reactions. Polymerase chain reaction fragments were used to isolate a full-length cDNA clone from a randomly primed lambda gt10 cDNA library obtained from embryonic porcine brain mRNA. Porcine TTL is encoded by 1,137 nucleotides corresponding to 379 amino acid residues. It has a molecular weight of 43,425 and a calculated isoelectric point of 6.51. Northern blot analysis revealed a surprisingly long mRNA (approximately 6 kb in embryonic porcine brain). The protein sequence of TTL shares no extended homology with the sequences in the data banks. TTL contains a potential serine phosphorylation site for cAMP-dependent protein kinase (RKAS at positions 73 to 76). Residues 244 to 258 lie at the surface of the molecule. A rabbit antibody raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding to this sequence binds to native TTL. The same sequence contains the cleavage site for endoproteinase Glu-C (residue 248) previously shown to convert TTL into a nicked derivative in which the two fragments still form a tight complex but don't display enzymatic activity. 相似文献

We report here the localisation of BAIAP1 (13q24), HTR1F (13q45), PTPRG (13q23) and UBE1C (13q24) by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH), and BAIAP1 (Swr2114; 21 cR; LOD = 11.03), GATA2 (Sw2448; 37 cR; LOD = 8.26), IL5RA (Swr2114; 64 cR; LOD = 3.85), LMCD1 (Sw2450; 61 cR; LOD = 4.73), MME (CP; 50 cR; LOD = 7.75), RYK (Swc22; 12 cR; LOD = 18.62) and SGU003 (Sw1876; 6 cR; LOD = 16.99) by radiation hybrid (RH) mapping to porcine chromosome 13 (SSC13). The mapping of these 10 different loci (all mapped to human chromosome 3; HSA3) not only confirms the extended conservation of synteny between HSA3 and SSC13, but also defines more precisely the regions with conserved linkage. The syntenic region of the centromeric part of SSC13 was determined by isolating porcine bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones (842D4 and 1031H1) using primers amplifying porcine microsatellite markers S0219 and S0076 (mapped to this region). Sequence comparison of the BAC end sequences with the human genome sequence showed that the centromeric part of SSC13 is homologous with HSA3p24. 相似文献

We have utilized a panel of Chinese hamster x mouse somatic cell hybrids segregating mouse chromosomes to assign a gene for arylsulfatase A (ARSA) to mouse chromosome 15. Considering our previous assignment of a gene for diaphorase-1 (DIA1) to the same mouse chromosome, we have evidence for another syntenic relationship that has been conserved, since the homologous loci for human ARSA and DIA1 are both located on human chromosome 22. Because MMU 15 and HSA 22 are quite dissimilar in size and banding patterns, we have attempted to identify the conserved portion by regional mapping of human DIA1 and ARSA using somatic cell hybrids segregating a human chromosome translocation t(15;22)(q14;q13.31). The results assign human DIA1 and ARSA to the distal sub-band of 22q13 (region 22q13.31 leads to qter). The locus for mitochondrial aconitase (ACO2) has been separated by the breakpoint from DIA1 and ARSA and is located more proximally. 相似文献

The gene for 7B2, a protein found in the secretory granules of neural and endocrine cells (gene symbol SGNE1) was localized to the E3-F3 region of mouse chromosome 2 and to the q11-q15 region of human chromosome 15. This was determined by in situ hybridization, using a mouse 7B2 cDNA and an intronic fragment of the corresponding human gene as probes. The respective locations of SGNE1 in the two species correlate with the conservation of loci between these subregions of mouse chromosome 2 and human chromosome 15. Clinically, the human SGNE1 DNA fragment may serve as a molecular probe of this locus in both the Prader-Willi and the Angelman syndromes, which are often accompanied by submicroscopic chromosomal deletions in the 15q11-15q13 region. 相似文献

We have investigated the degree of synteny between the long arm (q) of human chromosome 2 and the proximal portion of mouse chromosome 1. To define the limits of synteny, we have determined whether mouse homologs of seven human genes mapping to chromosome 2q cosegregated with anchor loci on mouse chromosome 1. The loci investigated were NEB/Neb, ELN/Eln, COL3A1/Col3a1, CRYG/Len-2, FN1/Fn-1, VIL/Vil, and COL6A3/Col6a3. Ren-1,2 and Acrg were included as two proximal mouse chromosome 1 anchor loci. The segregation of restriction fragment length polymorphisms at these loci was analyzed in the progeny of Mus spretus x C57BL/6J hybrids backcrossed to the C57BL/6J inbred strain. We found that five of the structural protein loci and the two anchor loci form a linkage group on proximal murine chromosome 1. The proposed gene order of this group of linked markers is centromere - Col3a1 - Len-2-Fn-1-Vil-Acrg-Col6a3-Ren1,2. Neb and Eln are linked neither to each other nor to any other marker on proximal mouse chromosome 1. Therefore, the mouse loci Col3a1 and Col6a3 are identified as flanking markers of the linkage group of structural protein loci. The estimated genetic map distances are Col3a1-13.3 cM-Len-2-3.4 cM-Fn-1-3.8 cM-Vil-9.6 cM-Acrg-2.1 cM-Col6a3-18.3 cM-Ren1,2. The available map information for human chromosome 2q markers and mouse chromosome 1 markers presented here tentatively identifies Col3a1 and Col6a3 as the border markers that define the limits of the syntenic chromosome segment. The order of mouse genes on chromosome 1 and their human homologs on chromosome 2q also appears to be conserved, suggesting that mapping of murine genes on the conserved segment may be useful to predict gene order in man. 相似文献

Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) of α/β‐tubulin are believed to regulate interactions with microtubule‐binding proteins. A well‐characterized PTM involves in the removal and re‐ligation of the C‐terminal tyrosine on α‐tubulin, but the purpose of this tyrosination–detyrosination cycle remains elusive. Here, we examined the processive motility of mammalian dynein complexed with dynactin and BicD2 (DDB) on tyrosinated versus detyrosinated microtubules. Motility was decreased ~fourfold on detyrosinated microtubules, constituting the largest effect of a tubulin PTM on motor function observed to date. This preference is mediated by dynactin's microtubule‐binding p150 subunit rather than dynein itself. Interestingly, on a bipartite microtubule consisting of tyrosinated and detyrosinated segments, DDB molecules that initiated movement on tyrosinated tubulin continued moving into the segment composed of detyrosinated tubulin. This result indicates that the α‐tubulin tyrosine facilitates initial motor–tubulin encounters, but is not needed for subsequent motility. Our results reveal a strong effect of the C‐terminal α‐tubulin tyrosine on dynein–dynactin motility and suggest that the tubulin tyrosination cycle could modulate the initiation of dynein‐driven motility in cells. 相似文献

Tubulin-tyrosine ligase (TTL), the enzyme responsible for the reversible addition of a tyrosine residue at the carboxyl end of alpha-tubulin, has been purified from porcine brain using a purification scheme based on standard biochemical procedures. The enzyme preparation was nearly homogeneous (purity greater than 95%), was free of tubulin, and could be stored in the presence of glycerol for several months without loss in activity. To develop a more convenient purification of TTL, we have isolated mouse hybridoma cells secreting antibodies to TTL. These monoclonal antibodies recognize TTL not only in brain tissue but also in the liver of various mammals. Monoclonal antibodies isolated from ascites fluid allowed a rapid purification of TTL from a crude brain extract. TTL stayed bound to the immunoaffinity column in 1.5 M NaCl and was eluted with 3 M MgCl2. Highly active TTL was recovered nearly quantitatively at greater than 95% purity and could be stabilized in the presence of glycerol. Glycerol gradient centrifugation, SDS gel electrophoresis and immunoblots identified TTL as a monomeric protein with an apparent polypeptide molecular weight of about 40,000. A one to one complex of TTL with alpha beta-tubulin was observed by gradient centrifugation. 相似文献

Neutrophil activation by specific stimuli, such as the oligopeptide chemotactic factor fMet-Leu-(fMLF), is associated with an increased enzymatic addition of tyrosine to tubulin α -subunits, as measured by 14C tyrosine uptake. In studies using immunoblots we have found that this increased tyrosine uptake into tubulin in activated neutrophils reflects an increase in the proportion of cellular tubulin that is tyrosinated rather than simply an increase in the turnover of tyrosinated subunits. However, the increased accumulation of tyrosinated tubulin was also found to follow an initial depletion of tyrosinated tubulin and concomitant increase in detyrosinated tubulin between 0 and 60 sec following stimulation of neutrophils with fMLF. Immunogold electron microscopy studies of intact micro tubules recovered from activated neutrophils demonstrated that these rapid changes in the relative content of tubulin isoforms in the cells were not associated with the formation or disappearance of microtubule microdomains composed of only one form of tubulin. Previously, we have shown that under conditions of fMLF-stimulated exocytosis there is an increased binding of neutrophil granules to endogenous microtubules. Since neutrophil activation by fMLF is associated with increased tyrosination of α -tubulin subunits, we speculated that rapid changes in the levels of tyrosinated tubulin in the microtubules of activated neutrophils might have a role in the regulation of granule-microtubule interactions. When the binding of purified neutrophil granules to reconstituted rat brain microtubules containing approximately 50% tyrosinated tubulin was measured by electron microscopy and compared with granule binding to microtubules that contained no detectable tyrosinated tubulin, granule-microtubule associations were found to be significantly favored by detyrosinated vs. tyrosinated tubulin. These findings indicate that interactions between cytoplasmic granules and microtubules in activated neutrophils may be modulated by rapid changes in the relative content of detyrosinated and tyrosinated tubulin in the microtubule network of the cells. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Amplicons on human chromosome 11q are located in the early/late-switch regions of replication timing 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Amplicons are frequently found in human tumor genomes, but the mechanism of their generation is still poorly understood. We previously measured the replication timing of the genes along the entire length of human chromosomes 11q and 21q and found that many "disease-related" genes are located in timing-transition regions. In this study, further scrutiny of the updated replication-timing map of human chromosome 11q revealed that both amplicons on human chromosomal bands 11q13 and 11q22 are located in the early/late-switch regions of replication timing in two human cell lines (THP-1 and Jurkat). Moreover, examination of synteny in the human and mouse genomes revealed that synteny breakage in both genomes occurred primarily at the early/late-switch regions of replication timing that we had identified. In conclusion, we found that the early/late-switch regions of replication timing coincided with "unstable" regions of the genome. 相似文献

Microtubule protein preparations purified by cycles of assembly-disassembly contain the enzyme tubulinyltyrosine carboxypeptidase (TTCPase). Using these preparations, containing tubulinyl[14C]tyrosine, we studied the release of [14C]tyrosine from assembled and non-assembled tubulin under steady-state conditions. It was found that both states of aggregation were detyrosinated at similar rates by the action of the endogenous TTCPase. However, practically no release of [14C]tyrosine from the non-assembled tubulin pool was found when microtubules were previously eliminated from the incubation mixture. These results indicated that non-assembled tubulin requires to interact with microtubules to be detyrosinated. This interaction seems to occur through the incorporation of dimers into microtubules, since when the capability of tubulin to incorporate into microtubules was diminished by binding of colchicine a concomitant decrease in the rate of release of tyrosine was observed. When detyrosination was accelerated by increasing the concentration of TTCPase relative to the microtubule protein concentration, microtubules were found to be detyrosinated faster than was non-assembled tubulin. Using exogenous TTCPase in an incubation system in which the formation of microtubules was not allowed, tubulinyl[14C]tyrosine and tubulinyl[14C]tyrosine-colchicine complex were shown to have similar capabilities to act as substrates for this enzyme. Free colchicine was shown not to affect the activity of TTCPase. 相似文献

The mapping of human chromosome 9 (HSA9) and mouse chromosome 2 (MMU2) has revealed a conserved syntenic region between the distal end of the long arm of chromosome 9 and proximal mouse chromosome 2. Two genes that map to human chromosome 9q34, gelsolin (GSN) and dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH), have not previously been located in the mouse. We have used an interspecific backcross to map each of these genes, by Southern blot analysis, to mouse chromosome 2. Gelsolin (Gsn) is tightly linked to the gene for complement component C5 (Hc), and dopamine beta-hydroxylase (Dbh) is just proximal to the Abelson leukemia virus oncogene (Abl) and alpha-spectrin 2 (Spna-2). The loci for gelsolin and dopamine beta-hydroxylase therefore form part of the conserved synteny between HSA9q and MMU2. 相似文献

The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of skeletal muscle (CHRN in man, Acr in mouse) is a transmembrane protein composed of four different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, and delta) assembled into the pentamer alpha 2 beta gamma delta. These subunits are encoded by separate genes which derive from a common ancestral gene by duplication. We have used a murine full-length 1,900-bp-long cDNA encoding the gamma subunit subcloned into M 13 (clone gamma 18) to prepare single-stranded probes for hybridization to EcoRI-digested DNA from a panel of human x rodent somatic cell hybrids. Using conditions of low stringency to favor cross-species hybridization, and prehybridization with rodent DNA to prevent rodent background, we detected a single major human band of 30-40 kb. The pattern of segregation of this 30-40 kb band correlated with the segregation of human chromosome 2 within the panel and the presence of a chromosomal translocation in the distal part of the long arm of this t(X;2)(p22;q32.1) chromosome allowing the localization of the gamma subunit gene (CHRNG) to 2q32----qter. The human genes encoding the gamma and delta subunits have been shown to be contained in an EcoRI restriction fragment of approximately 20 kb (Shibahara et al., 1985). Consequently, this study also maps the delta subunit gene (CHRND) to human chromosome 2q32.1----qter. In the mouse, the Acrd and Acrg genes have been shown to be linked to Idh-1, Mylf (IDH1 and MYL1 in humans, respectively) and to the gene encoding villin on chromosome 1. Interestingly, we have recently localized the human MYL1 gene to the same chromosomal fragment of human chromosome 2. These results clearly demonstrate a region of chromosomal homoeology between mouse chromosome 1 and human chromosome 2. 相似文献

hTTLL12 is a member of the tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL) family that is highly conserved in phylogeny. It has both SET-like and TTL-like domains, suggesting that it could have histone methylation and tubulin tyrosine ligase activities. Altered expression of hTTLL12 in human cells leads to specific changes in H4K20 trimethylation, and tubulin detyrosination, hTTLL12 does not catalyse histone methylation or tubulin tyrosination in vitro, as might be expected from the lack of critical amino acids in its SET-like and TTLL-like domains. hTTLL12 misexpression increases mitotic duration and chromosome numbers. These results suggest that hTTLL12 has non-catalytic functions related to tubulin and histone modification, which could be linked to its effects on mitosis and chromosome number stability. 相似文献

The assignment of the gene encoding the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor (A2MR), which was first described as the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein, was confirmed by nonisotopic and isotopic in situ hybridizations on normal human metaphases to the region 12q13-q14. The same human cDNA, which has 95% sequence identity with the mouse A2mr, was hybridized to metaphases containing the Robertsonian translocation Rb(6;15)1Ald. The mouse A2mr gene was assigned to chromosome 15 in the region B2-D1. This locus and other loci on mouse chromosome 15 have been shown to be homologous with loci on human chromosome 12q. 相似文献
