By comparison with its older and better-behaved cousins in the nuclear receptor superfamily, CAR (NR1I3) has always been an oddball. Three new crystal structures recently described in Molecular Cell reveal the molecular basis for some of its bad habits (Xu et al., 2004; Suino et al., 2004; Shan et al., 2004).  相似文献

Heterotrimeric G proteins: new tricks for an old dog   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Hampoelz B  Knoblich JA 《Cell》2004,119(4):453-456
Heterotrimeric G proteins are well known for their function in signal transduction downstream of seven transmembrane receptors. More recently, however, genetic analysis in C. elegans and in Drosophila has revealed a second, essential function of these molecules in positioning the mitotic spindle and attaching microtubules to the cell cortex. Five new publications in Cell (Afshar et al., 2004; Du and Macara, 2004 [this issue of Cell]; Hess et al., 2004), Developmental Cell (Martin-McCaffrey et al., 2004), and Current Biology (Couwenbergs et al., 2004) show that this function is conserved in vertebrates and--like the classical pathway--involves cycling of G proteins between GDP and GTP bound conformations.  相似文献

The ways of PARP     
Pirrotta V 《Cell》2004,119(6):735-736
Two papers in this issue of Cell describe two roles of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in modulating chromatin structure: as a structural component replacing linker histone (Kim et al., 2004) and as a constituent of a corepressor complex poised to dismiss repression upon receipt of an activating signal (Ju et al., 2004).  相似文献

Melanins are common feather pigments that contribute to signaling and crypsis. Melanins may also help feathers resist feather‐degrading bacteria (FDB). Two recent studies (Goldstein et al. 2004, Grande et al. 2004) tested the resistance of melanized versus unmelanized feathers to FDB using in vitro experiments, but draw opposite conclusions. Goldstein et al. (2004) concluded that melanized feathers resist FDB more than unmelanized feathers, while Grande et al. (2004) concluded that unmelanized feathers resist FDB more than melanized feathers. To resolve this conflict in the literature, we replicated previous studies but included additional tests not previously used. We inoculated melanized and unmelanized feathers of domestic geese Anser anser domesticus, with the FDB Bacillus licheniformis and measured bacterial activity every two days over two weeks. Three metrics of bacterial activity on feathers were measured: soluble protein content around feathers in solution, bacterial growth on feathers, and loss of feather mass. The latter two metrics were not considered in the aforementioned studies, which indirectly measured bacterial activity. We conducted two trials, one in which feathers were sterilized by autoclaving before inoculation (Goldstein et al. 2004, Grande et al. 2004), and a second in which feathers were sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. This allowed us to test whether autoclaving, done in previous studies, influences bacterial activity on feathers and could confound results. In both trials, unmelanized feathers degraded earlier, supported greater bacterial growth, and lost more mass than melanized feathers. These results support the findings of Goldstein et al. (2004); melanized feathers are more resistant to FDB than unmelanized feathers. Thus, using direct metrics of bacterial activity, we resolve a current conflict in the literature. We also found that autoclaving feathers influences FDB activity on them, and thus autoclaving should be avoided in future studies.  相似文献

DNA damage is detected and repaired in the context of chromatin. In this issue of Cell, van Attikum et al. (2004) and Morrison et al. (2004) demonstrate that double-stranded break repair involves the recruitment of a specialized chromatin remodeling complex, INO80, through an interaction with phosphorylated histone H2A.  相似文献

1 INTRODUCTION Pertusaria is a fairly large genus of Pertusariaceae with around 170 species recognized(Kirk et al.2001).The genus is characterized by the verrucose thallus,and the large spores(often longer than 30μm)with a conspicuously thick wall(more than 2.5μm thick).Both morphology and chemistry are essential for identifying species in this genus(Oshio 1968; Dibben 1980; Archer 1991,1997;Lumbsch et al.1999).Studies of the Chinese Pertusaria have been extensively developed with 45taxa accepted to data(Zhao et al.2004).A considerable portion of these taxa are difficult to be distinguished without chemical data which,however,have been detected for only a handful of species (Yu et al.1999; Zhao et al.2004).  相似文献

Tensile mechanical force was long assumed to increase the detachment rates of biological adhesive bonds (Bell, 1978). However, in the last few years, several receptor-ligand pairs were shown to form "catch bonds," whose lifetimes are enhanced by moderate amounts of force. These include the bacterial adhesive protein FimH binding to its ligand mannose (Thomas et al., 2002; Thomas et al., 2006), blood cell adhesion proteins P- and L-selectin binding to sialyl Lewis X (sLe(X))-containing ligands (Marshall et al., 2003; Evans et al., 2004; Sarangapani et al., 2004), and the myosin-actin motor protein interaction (Guo and Guilford, 2006). The structural mechanism behind this counterintuitive force-enhanced catch bond behavior is of great interest.  相似文献

Activation of the DNA damage response (DDR) is critical for genomic integrity and tumor suppression. The occurrence of DNA damage quickly evokes the DDR through ATM/ATR-dependent signal transduction, which promotes DNA repair and activates the checkpoint to halt cell cycle progression (Halazonetis et al., 2008; Motoyama and Naka, 2004; Zhou and Elledge, 2000). The "turn off" process of the DDR upon satisfaction of DNA repair, also known as "checkpoint recovery", involves deactivation of DDR elements, but the mechanism is poorly understood. Greatwall kinase (Gwl) has been identified as a key element in the G2/M transition (Archambault et al., 2007; Jackson, 2006; Zhao et al., 2008; Yu et al., 2004; Yu et al., 2006; Zhao et al., 2006) and helps maintain M phase through inhibition of PP2A/B55δ (Burgess et al., 2010; Castilho et al., 2009; Goldberg, 2010; Lorca et al., 2010; Vigneron et al., 2009), the principal phosphatase for Cdk-phosphorylated substrates. Here we show that Gwl also promotes recovery from DNA damage and is itself directly inhibited by the DNA damage response (DDR). In Xenopus egg extracts, immunodepletion of Gwl increased the DDR to damaged DNA, whereas addition of wild type, but not kinase dead Gwl, inhibited the DDR. The removal of damaged DNA from egg extracts leads to recovery from checkpoint arrest and entry into mitosis, a process impaired by Gwl depletion and enhanced by Gwl over-expression. Moreover, activation of Cdk1 after the removal of damaged DNA is regulated by Gwl. Collectively, these results defines Gwl as a new regulator of the DDR, which plays an important role in recovery from DNA  相似文献

At the crossroads of inflammation and cancer   总被引:37,自引:0,他引:37  
Clevers H 《Cell》2004,118(6):671-674
Chronic inflammation and cancer are closely associated in the intestine. Anti-inflammatory medication reduces intestinal neoplasia, while colorectal cancer incidence is increased in ulcerative colitis. Cyclooxygenases are key to both diseases, yet the molecular basis of the association remains incompletely understood. Two recent Cell (Greten et al., 2004; Rakoff-Nahoum et al., 2004) papers illuminate roles of Toll-like receptors and the NF-kappaB pathway in the control of epithelial homeostasis in health and disease.  相似文献

The chromosomal passenger complex plays important roles in key mitotic events, including chromosome bi-orientation, the spindle assembly checkpoint, and cytokinesis. Two groups now report the identification of a novel component of the Incenp/survivin/auroraB complex (Gassmann et al., 2004; Sampath et al., 2004) and show that different subcomplexes may exist during mitosis. Exciting data support the involvement of the passenger complex in yet another key event, the assembly of the mitotic spindle.  相似文献

The retinoblastoma susceptibility gene (RB1) was the first tumor suppressor gene identified in humans (Friend, et al., 1986) and the first tumor suppressor gene knocked out by targeted deletion in mice (Jacks, et al., Clarke, et al., Lee, et al., 1992). Children with a germline mutation in one of their RB1 alleles are likely to experience bilateral multifocal retinoblastoma; however, mice with a similar disruption of Rb1 do not develop retinoblastoma. The absence of a knock-out mouse model of retinoblastoma has slowed the progress toward developing new therapies and identifying secondary genetic lesions that occur after disruption of the Rb signaling pathway. Several advances have been made, over the past several years, in our understanding of the regulation of proliferation during retinal development (Zhang, et al., 2004; Dyer J, 2004; Dyer, Cepko, 2001) and we have built upon these earlier studies to generate the first nonchimeric knock-out mouse model of retinoblastoma. These mice are being used as a preclinical model to test new therapies for retinoblastoma and to elucidate the downstream genetic events that occur after inactivation of Rb1 or its related family members.  相似文献

This article is a sequel to the four earlier comprehensive reviews which covered the field of membrane guanylate cyclase from its origin to the year 2002 (Sharma in Mol Cell Biochem 230:3–30, 2002) and then to the year 2004 (Duda et al. in Peptides 26:969–984, 2005); and of the Ca2+-modulated membrane guanylate cyclase to the year 1997 (Pugh et al. in Biosci Rep 17:429–473, 1997) and then to 2004 (Sharma et al. in Curr Top Biochem Res 6:111–144, 2004). This article contains three parts. The first part is “Historical”; it is brief, general, and freely borrowed from the earlier reviews, covering the field from its origin to the year 2004 (Sharma in Mol Cell Biochem, 230:3–30, 2002; Duda et al. in Peptides 26:969–984, 2005). The second part focuses on the “Ca2+-modulated ROS-GC membrane guanylate cyclase subfamily”. It is divided into two sections. Section “Historical” and covers the area from its inception to the year 2004. It is also freely borrowed from an earlier review (Sharma et al. in Curr Top Biochem Res 6:111–144, 2004). Section “Ca2+-modulated ROS-GC membrane guanylate cyclase subfamily” covers the area from the year 2004 to May 2009. The objective is to focus on the chronological development, recognize major contributions of the original investigators, correct misplaced facts, and project on the future trend of the field of mammalian membrane guanylate cyclase. The third portion covers the present status and concludes with future directions in the field.  相似文献

In plants, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are short-lived molecules produced through various cellular mechanisms in response to biotic and abiotic stimuli. ROS function as second messengers for hormone signaling, development, oxygen deprivation, programmed cell death, and plant–pathogen interactions. Recent research on ROS-mediated responses has produced stimulating findings such as the specific sources of ROS production, molecular elements that work in ROS-mediated signaling and homeostasis, and a ROS-regulated gene network (Neill et al., Curr Opin Plant Biol 5:388–395, 2002a; Apel and Hirt, Annu Rev Plant Biol 55:373–399, 2004; Mittler et al., Trends Plant Sci 9:490–498, 2004; Mori and Schroeder, Plant Physiol 135:702–708, 2004; Kwak et al., Plant Physiol 141:323–329, 2006; Torres et al., Plant Physiol 141:373–378, 2006; Miller et al., Physiol Plant 133:481–489, 2008). In this review, we highlight new discoveries in ROS-mediated abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. Drs. Daeshik Cho and June M. Kwak are the corresponding authors for this paper.  相似文献
