The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein family is highly expanded in terrestrial plants. Arabidopsis contains 450 PPR genes, which represents 2% of the total protein-coding genes. PPR proteins are eukaryote-specific RNA-binding proteins implicated in multiple aspects of RNA metabolism of organellar genes. Most PPR proteins affect a single or small subset of gene(s), acting in a gene-specific manner. Studies over the last 10 years have revealed the significance of this protein family in coordinated gene expression in different compartments: the nucleus, chloroplast and mitochondrion. Here, we summarize recent studies addressing the mechanistic aspect of PPR proteins. 相似文献

Mitochondrial–nuclear co‐evolution leads to hybrid incompatibility through pentatricopeptide repeat proteins 下载免费PDF全文
Mitochondrial–nuclear incompatibility has a major role in reproductive isolation between species. However, the underlying mechanism and driving force of mitochondrial–nuclear incompatibility remain elusive. Here, we report a pentatricopeptide repeat‐containing (PPR) protein, Ccm1, and its interacting partner, 15S rRNA, to be involved in hybrid incompatibility between two yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces bayanus. S. bayanus‐Ccm1 has reduced binding affinity for S. cerevisiae‐15S rRNA, leading to respiratory defects in hybrid cells. This incompatibility can be rescued by single mutations on several individual PPR motifs, demonstrating the highly evolvable nature of PPR proteins. When we examined other PPR proteins in the closely related Saccharomyces sensu stricto yeasts, about two‐thirds of them showed detectable incompatibility. Our results suggest that fast co‐evolution between flexible PPR proteins and their mitochondrial RNA substrates may be a common driving force in the development of mitochondrial–nuclear hybrid incompatibility. 相似文献

Dimer‐specific immunoprecipitation of active caspase‐2 identifies TRAF proteins as novel activators 下载免费PDF全文
Caspase‐2 has been shown to initiate apoptotic cell death in response to specific intracellular stressors such as DNA damage. However, the molecular mechanisms immediately upstream of its activation are still poorly understood. We combined a caspase‐2 bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) system with fluorophore‐specific immunoprecipitation to isolate and study the active caspase‐2 dimer and its interactome. Using this technique, we found that tumor necrosis factor receptor‐associated factor 2 (TRAF2), as well as TRAF1 and 3, directly binds to the active caspase‐2 dimer. TRAF2 in particular is necessary for caspase‐2 activation in response to apoptotic cell death stimuli. Furthermore, we found that dimerized caspase‐2 is ubiquitylated in a TRAF2‐dependent manner at K15, K152, and K153, which in turn stabilizes the active caspase‐2 dimer complex, promotes its association with an insoluble cellular fraction, and enhances its activity to fully commit the cell to apoptosis. Together, these data indicate that TRAF2 positively regulates caspase‐2 activation and consequent cell death by driving its activation through dimer‐stabilizing ubiquitylation. 相似文献

The ATP-generating activity of rat myocardial mitochondria and intramitochondrial creatine kinase was examined as a function of the isotopy of the incubation medium magnesium pool. The study was performed using in vitro systems prepared from the hearts of animals injected with 1-methylnicotine amide, which suppresses the NAD (NADP)-dependent reactions in vivo. It was shown that the presence of the 25Mg paramagnetic cations essential by compensates for the intramitochondrial ATP deficiency caused by the 1-methyl-nicotine amide-induced blockade of oxidative phosphorylation. This effect is hardey achievable in systems where the magnesium pool consists of isotopes with a zero nuclear spin (24Mg, 26Mg). The restoration of mitochondrial ATP synthesis involves the participation of creatine kinase since the activity of the latter does not depend on 1-methyl-nicotine amide. In this case, the high efficiency of this restaration seems to be a spin-selective phenomenon which requires predominantly 25Mg2+ cations. A possible meaning of the data for further studies on the mechanisms of enzymatic catalysis regulation is discussed. 相似文献

MRPS27 is a pentatricopeptide repeat domain protein required for the translation of mitochondrially encoded proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Mammalian pentatricopeptide repeat domain (PPR) proteins are involved in regulation of mitochondrial RNA metabolism and translation and are required for mitochondrial function. We investigated an uncharacterised PPR protein, the supernumerary mitochondrial ribosomal protein of the small subunit 27 (MRPS27), and show that it associates with the 12S rRNA and tRNAGlu, however it does not affect their abundance. We found that MRPS27 is not required for mitochondrial RNA processing or the stability of the small ribosomal subunit. However, MRPS27 is required for mitochondrial protein synthesis and its knockdown causes decreased abundance in respiratory complexes and cytochrome c oxidase activity.

Identification and characterization of cDNAs encoding pentatricopeptide repeat proteins in the basal land plant, the moss Physcomitrella patens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A large gene family encoding proteins with a pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) motif exists in flowering plants but not in algae, fungi, or animals. This suggests that PPR protein genes expanded vastly during the evolution of the land plants. To investigate this possibility, we analysed PPR protein genes in the basal land plant, the moss Physcomitrella patens. An extensive survey of the Physcomitrella expressed sequence tag (EST) databases revealed 36 ESTs encoding PPR proteins. This indicates that a large gene family of PPR proteins originated before the divergence of the vascular plant and moss lineages. We also characterized five full-length cDNAs encoding PPR proteins, designated PPR513-10, PPR566-6, PPR868-14, PPR986-12, and PPR423-6. Intracellular localization analysis demonstrated two PPR proteins in chloroplasts (cp), whereas the cellular localization of the other three PPR proteins is unclear. The genes of the cp-localized PPR513-10 and PPR566-6 were expressed differentially in protonemata grown under different light-dark conditions, suggesting they have distinctive functions in cp. This is the first report and analysis of genes encoding PPR proteins in bryophytes. 相似文献
