The current studies focus on what mechanisms regulate the concentration of PLP mRNA in cells. The PLP mRNA is very stable and these studies suggest that its stability is regulated by a trans-acting factor specific to oligodendrocytes. In order to test whether the 3untranslated region (3UTR) of the PLP mRNA might regulate PLP RNA stability, C6 cells were transfected with cDNAs that expressed either luciferase or luciferase fused to the 3UTR of PLP. Although transgene expression was low, in cells transfected with the PLP 3UTR, there was a significant decrease in the endogenous PLP mRNA. These cells showed a distinct change in morphology and in adhesion properties. Thus, there may be a role for plp gene products in cell adhesion, which was downregulated in these cells, or an unknown function may be encoded by the PLP 3UTR. Transgenic mice that overexpress enhanced green fluorescent protein fused to the PLP 3UTR under control of PLP regulatory sequences were tested for the expression of the endogenous PLP mRNA. Three of four lines of transgenic mice had decreased endogenous PLP mRNA, relative to their non-transgenic littermates; the EGFP-PLP 3UTR mouse line that expressed the highest level of transgene mRNA had a 54% reduction in PLP mRNA. We hypothesize that the PLP mRNA is regulated by elements in the 3UTR and stabilizing proteins specific to oligodendrocytes, and that in cells that overexpress the PLP 3UTR, these stabilizing proteins may be insufficient to maintain the normal level of the endogenous PLP mRNA. 相似文献

Summary The actin gene family of the marine molluscPatella vulgata was chosen as a model system to study the regulation of genes expressed during early development in molluscs. Using a hamster actin cDNA clone as a probe, we isolated nine actin cDNA clones from trochophore larvae. The total nucleic acid sequence of three of these clones has been determined. Each clone contains the whole protein encoding region. The deduced amino acid sequences resemble actin proteins from other species to a high extent. The nucleotide sequence from the 3UTR (UnTranslated Region) and 5UTR from all nine clones has been resolved. In this way we could identify four different subtypes. Southern blots with genomic DNA were probed with different 3UTR's corresponding to each subtype to determine the genomic organization. One 3UTR detected one band probably corresponding with one gene. Another 3UTR detected one or two genes and the third 3UTR between two and four genes. Northern blots were used to detect the presence of actin mRNA during different stages of development. In the mature oocyte, actin mRNA is present in low amounts. The level of actin mRNA starts to rise steadily from 8 h after fertilization (88-cell stage) onwards. The level of the different subtype mRNAs, as specified by their 3UTR rises at different developmental stages and to various extents. This indicates that the expression of each type is regulated independently and in relation to the developmental stage of the embryo.

Expression of the lacZ reporter gene under the control of five deletion derivatives of the copia regulatory region including the 5 long terminal repeat (LTR) and the 5 untranslated region (UTR) was assayed in the testes of transgenic Drosophila melanogaster males (larvae and imago). The full-length copia regulatory region (LTR + UTR) ensured expression of the reporter gene in testes of both larvae and adult males. Deletion of UTR or 3 end of LTR increased lacZ expression in the testes, whereas deletion of the 5 end of LTR increased it. This indicated that a positive regulator ofcopia expression is at the 5 end of LTR and that negative regulators are at the 3 end of LTR and in UTR. The effects of the fragments of the copia regulatory region on reporter gene expression in the testes in vivo did not completely coincide with the effects observed earlier in cultured cells. We suggest that this difference is due to different regulation of expression of the fusion constructs integrated into chromatin as compared to their transient expression. 相似文献

67c23(2) strain at the age of 3, 6–9, 12–15, 18–21, and 24–27 days. When the construct contained the full-length regulatory region, which included the 5-long terminal repeat (LTR) and the 5-untranslated region (UTR), expression was the lowest in males aged 12–15 days and the highest in males aged 3 or 24–27 days. A similar V-shaped age dependence was previously observed for the copia transposition rate and RNA content in a strain with a high rate of copia transposition. Thus, the V-shaped age dependence of expression, which is unusual for Drosophila, proved to be characteristic of copiaregardless of its transposition rate. Deletion of the 5 or 3 end of the LTR, but not of the UTR, changed the age dependence of the level of reporter gene expression. In this case, expression was the highest in 3-day-old males and gradually decreased with age, as typical for many Drosophila genes. It was assumed that the 5- and 3-terminal regions of the copiaLTR contain regulatory elements responsible for the V-shaped age dependence of expression, while the expression level depends to a greater extent on the regulatory elements of UTR. 相似文献

Here, we describe two nearly identical expressed genes for cytosolic glutamine synthetase (GS3A and GS3B) in Pisum sativum L. RFLP mapping data indicates that the GS3A and GS3B genes are separate loci located on different chromosomes. DNA sequencing of the GS3A and GS3B genes revealed that the coding regions are 99% identical with only simple nucleotide substitutions resulting in three amino acid differences. Surprisingly, the non-coding regions (5 non-coding leader, the 11 introns, and 3 non-coding tail) all showed a high degree of identity (96%). In these non-coding regions, 25% of the observed differences between the GS3A and GS3B genes were deletions or duplications. The single difference in the 3 non-coding regions of the GS3A and GS3B genes was a 25 bp duplication of an AU-rich element in the GS3B gene. As the GS3B mRNA accumulates to lower levels than the GS3A gene, we tested whether this sequence which resembles an mRNA instability determinant functioned as such in the context of the GS mRNA. Using the GS3B 3 tail as part of a chimeric gene in transgenic plants, we showed that this AU-rich sequence has little effect on transgene mRNA levels. To determine whether the GS3A/GS3B genes represent a recent duplication, we examined GS3-like genes in genomic DNA of ancient relatives of P. sativum. We observed that several members of the Viceae each contain two genomic DNA fragments homologous to the GS3B gene, suggesting that this is an ancient duplication event. Gene conversion has been invoked as a possible mechanism for maintaining the high level of nucleotide similarity found between the GS3A and GS3B genes. Possible evolutionary reasons for the maintenance of these twin GS genes in pea, and the general duplication of genes for cytosolic GS in all plant species are discussed. 相似文献

Observations of male meiosis and female chromosome number indicate that eight species of Pellenes have the X1X2O male, X1X1X2X2 female sex chromosome system typical of salticids, four species have an X1X2X3Y male, X1X1X2X3X3X3 female system, and one species has both X1X2O and X1X2X3Y males. This is the first report of a Y chromosome in spiders. It is hypothesized that the X1X2X2Y system was derived from an X1X2O system by a tandem X-autosome fusion which yielded the X2 and a centric autosome-autosome fusion which yielded the Y. Data on heteropycnosis, chiasmata, segregation, chromosome number and arm length support this hypothesis. The distribution of the X1X2X3Y system within the genus is phylogenetically confusing and suggests that the two sex chromosome systems have been maintained together as a polymorphism in some lineages for long periods of time or that there have been repeated derivations of the X1X2X3Y or X1X2O systems. 相似文献

Three separate calmodulin (CaM) genes (I, II and III) encoding an identical CaM protein but differing in the 5- and 3-untranslated regions of each of the three mRNAs are present and highly conserved in all mammals (so far examined). Primers complementary to the 3- untranslated region (3UTR) of each of the three mRNAs occurring in human, rat and mouse were synthesized and used to amplify regions of the 3UTR from genomic DNA isolated from cetaceans, specifically from the bottled-nosed dolphin (Tursiops truncates), the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) and the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae). Using several primers and PCR conditions, the three CaM genes were identified in all three species by this method with one exception. The sequenced regions of the 3UTRs of the three genes of the cetaceans exhibited a high percentage identity when compared to the corresponding regions of these three CaM mRNAs isolated from humans (85-96%). These partial sequences of the 3UTR regions and the corresponding regions for humans, rats and mice that were available from the database were aligned and a phylogenetic tree was constructed. The three CaM genes from all species showed a close phylogenetic relationship based on these 3UTR sequences. Such high conservation of the 3UTRs suggests a specialized and significant function for this region in mammals. 相似文献

Derivatives of gramicidin S (GS) and its mono- and di-d-cyclohexylalanine (d-Cha) analogs possessing various protecting groups on Orn side chains were prepared. 1H NMR spectra of the unsymmetrically protected analogs [Orn(X)2,Orn(X)2,d-Cha4]GS were similar to the composites of the spectra of the symmetrical derivatives [Orn(X)2,2,d-Cha4,4]GS and [Orn(X)2,2]GS, revealing the proximity of the protecting groups of NH of Orn residues at the 2 and 2 positions to the side chains of d-Phe (or d-Cha) residues at the 4 and 4 positions, respectively. The results indicated the presence of H-bonds between the NH of Orn and the carbonyl of d-Phe residues in the i i + 2 sense and not in i i – 3, which was also supported by the ROESY analysis. The substantially strong H-bonds can explain the observed resistance of the urethane NH of the Orn side chains in the GS derivatives to the N-methylation with CH3I–Ag2O in DMF. 相似文献

Summary The self-condensation of 2(3)-O-glycyl esters of adenosine, adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate in 6.2 mM solutions at pH 8.0 and -5°C in the presence of 12.5 mM poly(U) yields approximately 3 times as much diketopiperazine as reactions without poly(U). As the concentration of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate is decreased from 6.2 mM to 1.5 mM the yield of diketopiperazine in the presence of poly(U) decreases slightly from 6.6% to 5.2%, whereas, in the absence of poly(U) the yield of diketopiperazine decreases substantially from 2.4% to 0.75%. The enhanced yield of diketopiperazine that is attributed to the template action of poly(U) is temperature dependent and is observed only at temperatures below 10°C (5°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and below 23°C (15°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate. The absence of a template effect at high temperatures is attributed to the melting of the organized helices. The hydrolysis half-lives at pH 8.0 and -5°C of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine, 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate), 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate, and 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) are substantially larger than their half-lives in the absence of poly(U). The condensation of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine yields 5% of 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) compared to 0.7% in the absence of poly(U).Abbreviations DKP

Summary 2-Amino-2-deoxyuridine reacts efficiently with nucleoside 5-phosphorimidazolides in aqueous solution. The dinucleoside monophosphate analogues were obtained in yields exceeding 80% under conditions in which little reaction occurs with the natural nucleosides.In a similar way, the 5-phosphorimidazolide of 2-amino-2-deoxyuridine undergoes self-condensation in aqueous solution to give a complex mixture of oligomers.The phosphoramidate bond in the dinucleoside monophosphate analogues is stable for several days at room temperature and pH 7. The mechanisms of their hydrolysis under acidic and alkaline conditions are described.Abbreviations A

Zusammenfassung Die extracelluläre Abscheidung eines unlöslichen blauen Pigments (Indigoidin) wurde zuerst bei Pseudomonas indigofera beobachtet. Historisch wird auf die verschiedenen Benennungen dieses Bakteriums eingegangen. Beschrieben wird die Darstellung blauer Farbstoffe aus Kulturen verschiedener Bakterien. Die von Corynebacterium insidiosum, Arthrobacter atrocyaneus und Arthrobacter polychromogenes gebildeten Pigmente sind identisch mit Indigoidin von P. indigofera. Die Identität wird bewiesen durch physikalische und chemische Vergleiche der Pigmente und ihrer Derivate. Der Name Indigoidin, der früher nur für das Pigment von P. indigofera verwendet wurde, wird nun unabhängig von der Herkunft des Pigments benützt.Indigoidin (I), C10H8N4O4, ist 5,5-Diamino-4,4-dihydroxy-3,3-diazadiphenochinon-(2,2). Durch Erhitzen mit 6 n HCl entsteht daraus ein Hydrolyseprodukt (III), C10H6N2O6, das als 4,5,4,5-Tetrahydroxy-3,3-diazadiphenochinon-(2,2) erkannt wurde. Dieses Hydrolyseprodukt (III) bildet ein Monokaliumsalz (VII), das identisch ist mit dem grünen Pigment, das Arthrobacter crystallopoietes bei Zusatz von Pyridon-(2) bildet. Über Synthesen des Indigoidins (I) und seines Hydrolyseprodukts (III), die von 3,3-Bipyridyl, von Citrazinsäure oder 5-Amino-pyridon-(2) ausgehen, wird an anderer Stelle berichtet.Beschrieben wird die Darstellung folgender Indigoidin-Derivate: 5,5-Diacetamino-4,4-dihydroxy-3,3-diazadiphenochinon-(2,2) (II), C14H12N4O6; 4,4-Dihydroxy-5,5-diacetoxy-3,3-diazadiphenochinon-(2,2) (IV), C14H10N2O8; 2,5,6,2.5.6-Hexaacetoxy-3,3-bipyridyl (VI), C22H20N2O12 und 4,4-Dihydroxy-5,5-dimethoxy-3,3-diazadiphenochinon-(2,2) (V), C12H10N2O6. 相似文献

Crude extracts or supernatants of broken cells of Clostridium formicoaceticum reduce unbranched, branched, saturated and unsaturated carboxylates at the expense of carbon monoxide to the corresponding alcohols. The presence of viologens with redox potentials varying from E
0=-295 to-650 mV decreased the rate of propionate reduction. The more the propionate reduction was diminished the more formate was formed from carbon monoxide. The lowest propionate reduction and highest formate formation was observed with methylviologen. The carbon-carbon double bond of E-2-methyl-butenoate was only hydrogenated when a viologen was present. Formate as electron donor led only in the presence of viologens to the formation of propanol from propionate. The reduction of propionate at the expense of a reduced viologen can be followed in cuvettes. With respect to propionate Michaelis Menten behavior was observed. Experiments are described which lead to the assumption that the carboxylates are reduced in a non-activated form. That would be new type of biological reduction.Non-standard abbreviations glc

Darkness rapidly induces a decline in the stability and translation of the pea Ferredoxin-1 (Fed-1) mRNA in transgenic tobacco. Direct half-life measurement showed that mutation of the (CAUU)4 stabilizes Fed-1 mRNA in the dark. (CAUU)1, a feature more common in plant 5 UTRs than (CAUU)4, confers slight light-responsive mRNA accumulation. At least three but less than 11 CAUU repeats near the 5 end of the 5 UTR are required for full light-responsive accumulation. Furthermore, 26nt of the 5 UTR, including the (CAUU)4 repeat, is sufficient to confer a significant 2.5-fold increase in light-regulated mRNA accumulation when fused to the 5 end of a heterologous plant mRNA. A mutation of the (CAUU)4 repeat that compromises light-regulated mRNA stability changes in vitro the accessibility of the region to ribonuclease V1 and ribonuclease A suggesting the geometry formed by the repeat may be important for instability. Finally, dark-induced Fed-1 mRNA instability occurs even when most of the mRNA is retained on polyribosomes, and thus is likely an independent event regulated by darkness. 相似文献

Summary We have studied a number of condensation reactions involving ImpU, ImpT, ImpC, ImpA, ImpG, ImpUpG and ImpCpA as activated nucleotide donors and a variety of homo- and hetero-polynucleotides as templates. We did not obtain any evidence of a template effect with ImpU and ImpT, but observed some condensation of ImpC with GpG on appropriate templates. ImpA and ImpG take part in a number of more or less efficient template-directed reactions, as do ImpUpG and ImpCpA.Our results suggest that, on the primitive Earth, pyrimidine nucleotides could most easily have been incorporated into polymers as constituents of short oligomers, which contained one or more purine nucleotide. The linkage of the product depends strongly on the nature of the substrates; the percentage of the natural 3-5-linkage was, in some cases, less than 10% and, in others, as high as 70%. Wobble-pairing was often very effective in promoting condensations, suggesting that transition mutations would have been very frequent in prebiotic polynucleotide replication.Abbreviations and Conventions U

Summary Adenosine 5-phosphoramidates form when solutions containing adenosine 5-polyphosphates pnA (n 3) or P1, P2-diadenosine 5-diphosphate and amines are allowed to dry out. Mg ions catalyze these reactions. We have studied systems containing ammonia, imidazole, glycine, ethylenediamine and histamine. The yields of adenosine 5-phosphoramidates range from 10–50 % based on the nucleotide. The prebiotic significance of the reactions is discussed.Abbreviations Im

Summary We have studied the reactions between adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide and 9-(2-amino-2-deoxyxylofuranosyl) adenine (I) or 3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine (II), both with and without a poly (U) template. We find that both amino compounds react much more rapidly than does adenosine, in the absence of a template. The rate of reaction is greatly enhanced by a poly (U) template in the case of I, but the enhancement is slight in the case of II.Abbreviations A

Crude extracts of Rhodospirillum rubrum catalyzed the formation of acid-volatile radioactivity from (35S) sulfate, (35S) adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, and (35S) 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate. An enzyme fraction similar to APS-sulfotransferases from plant sources was purified 228-fold from Rhodospirillum rubrum. It is suggested here that this enzyme is specific for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, because the purified enzyme fraction metabolized adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, however, only at a rate of 1/10 of that with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. Further, the reaction with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate was inhibited with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphate whereas this nucleotide had no effect on the reaction with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. For this activity with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate the name APS-sulfotransferase is suggested. This APS-sulfotransferase needs thiols for activity; good rates were obtained with either dithioerythritol or reduced glutathione; other thiols like cysteine, 2-3-dimercaptopropanol or mercaptoethanol are less effective. The electron donor methylviologen did not catalyze this reaction. The pH-optimum was about 9.0; the apparent K
m for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate was determined to be 0.05 mM with this so far purified enzyme fraction. Enzyme activity was increased with K2SO4 and Na2SO4 and was inhibited by 5-AMP. These properties are similar to assimilatory APS-sulfotransferases from spinach and Chlorella.Abbreviations APS
