mtDNA diversity in rhesus monkeys reveals overestimates of divergence time and paraphyly with neighboring species 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Reconstructions of the human-African great ape phylogeny by using
mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been subject to considerable debate. One
confounding factor may be the lack of data on intraspecific variation. To
test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of intraspecific mtDNA
diversity on the phylogenetic reconstruction of another Plio- Pleistocene
radiation of higher primates, the fascicularis group of macaque (Macaca)
monkey species. Fifteen endonucleases were used to identify 10 haplotypes
of 40-47 restriction sites in M. mulatta, which were compared with similar
data for the other members of this species group. Interpopulational,
intraspecific mtDNA diversity was large (0.5%- 4.5%), and estimates of
divergence time and branching order incorporating this variation were
substantially different from those based on single representatives of each
species. We conclude that intraspecific mtDNA diversity is substantial in
at least some primate species. Consequently, without prior information on
the extent of genetic diversity within a particular species, intraspecific
variation must be assessed and accounted for when reconstructing primate
phylogenies. Further, we question the reliability of hominoid mtDNA
phylogenies, based as they are on one or a few representatives of each
species, in an already depauperate superfamily of primates.

A gender analysis has been carried out to analyze changes in intracellular signaling pathways that lead to the development of chronic alcoholic myopathy. It is known that acute or chronic alcohol intoxication can result in alcohol-induced lesions in skeletal muscles. Chronic alcoholic myopathy occurs much more frequently and can develop either independently or in combination with other forms of alcoholic disease (liver and heart lesions, malabsorption syndrome, or alcohol polyneuropathy). This disease is manifested by atrophy of skeletal muscles and a performance decrement. Most of the studies on the pathogenesis of chronic alcoholic myopathy have been carried out on male patients. Studies on alcoholic myopathy-induced muscle damage in females have not been previously reported. 相似文献

The expression levels of the SOX9 gene in fetal, postnatal, and neoplastic pancreatic tissues were compared. In the fetal pancreatic samples, the mean relative level of the SOX9 gene expression was 8 times greater than the normal level. The tumor samples were divided into three groups depending on the SOX9 expression level. The first group showed a 6.5-fold increased expression level of SOX9 with respect to the normal one. The second and normal groups had approximately equal levels expression. The third group showed a 25-fold decreased expression level of SOX9. The discrepancy in the SOX9 expression, associated with the predominance of different functions of this master gene, depends on the poorly predictable individual factors and indicates that SOX9 should be excluded from the potential diagnostic biomarkers of pancreatic cancer. 相似文献

The Ser/Thr protein kinase PINK1 phosphorylates the well‐folded, globular protein ubiquitin (Ub) at a relatively protected site, Ser65. We previously showed that Ser65 phosphorylation results in a conformational change in which Ub adopts a dynamic equilibrium between the known, common Ub conformation and a distinct, second conformation wherein the last β‐strand is retracted to extend the Ser65 loop and shorten the C‐terminal tail. We show using chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) nuclear magnetic resonance experiments that a similar, C‐terminally retracted (Ub‐CR) conformation also exists at low population in wild‐type Ub. Point mutations in the moving β5 and neighbouring β‐strands shift the Ub/Ub‐CR equilibrium. This enabled functional studies of the two states, and we show that while the Ub‐CR conformation is defective for conjugation, it demonstrates improved binding to PINK1 through its extended Ser65 loop, and is a superior PINK1 substrate. Together our data suggest that PINK1 utilises a lowly populated yet more suitable Ub‐CR conformation of Ub for efficient phosphorylation. Our findings could be relevant for many kinases that phosphorylate residues in folded protein domains. 相似文献
