We previously described a mutation feeB1 conferring a temperature-sensitive filamentation phenotype and resistance to the calmodulin inhibitor 48/80 in Escherichia coli, which constitutes a single base change in the acceptor stem of the rare tRNA3Leu recognizing CUA codons. We now describe a second mutant, feeA1, unlinked to feeB, but displaying a similar phenotype, 48/80 resistance and a reduced growth rate at the permissive temperature, 30°C, and temperature-sensitive, forming short filaments at 42°C. In the feeA mutant, tRNA3Leu expression (but not that of tRNA1Leu) was reduced approximately fivefold relative to the wild type. We previously showed that the synthesis of β-galactosidase, which unusually requires the translation of 6-CUA codons, was substantially reduced, particularly at 42°C, in feeB mutants. The feeA mutant also shows drastically reduced synthesis of β-galactosidase at the non-permissive temperature and reduced levels even at the permissive temperature. We also show that increased copy numbers of the abundant tRNA1Leu, which can also read CUA codons at low efficiency, suppressed the effects of feeA1 under some conditions, providing further evidence that the mutant was deficient in CUA translation. This, and the previous study, demonstrates that mutations which either reduce the activity of tRNA3Leu or the cellular amount of tRNA3Leu confer resistance to the drug 48/80, with concomitant inhibition of cell division at 42°C. 相似文献

The flower bugs or minute pirate bugs, Anthocoridae sensu lato, are represented by 12 genera and 24 species in the Korean Peninsula. The present catalog includes three newly recorded species to the fauna: Anthocoris confusus Reuter, Bilia japonica Carayon et Miyamoto, and Montandoniola pictipennis (Esaki). Distributional data and bibliographical references of each taxon are included. Biological notes (habitats, prey types, etc.) and diagnoses based on the local materials of the Korean Peninsula are also presented for the field of applied entomology. 相似文献

Human cytosolic aspartyl‐tRNA synthetase (DRS) catalyzes the attachment of the amino acid aspartic acid to its cognate tRNA and it is a component of the multi‐tRNA synthetase complex (MSC) which has been known to be involved in unexpected signaling pathways. Here, we report the crystal structure of DRS at a resolution of 2.25 Å. DRS is a homodimer with a dimer interface of 3750.5 Å2 which comprises 16.6% of the monomeric surface area. Our structure reveals the C‐terminal end of the N‐helix which is considered as a unique addition in DRS, and its conformation further supports the switching model of the N‐helix for the transfer of tRNAAsp to elongation factor 1α. From our analyses of the crystal structure and post‐translational modification of DRS, we suggest that the phosphorylation of Ser146 provokes the separation of DRS from the MSC and provides the binding site for an interaction partner with unforeseen functions.Proteins 2013; 81:1840–1846. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Citrobacter amalonaticus Y19 (Y19) was isolated because of its ability for carbon monoxide-dependent hydrogen production (water–gas shift reaction). This paper reports the assimilation of glycerol and the production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) by Y19. Genome sequencing revealed that Y19 contained the genes for the utilization of glycerol and 1,2-propanediol (pdu operon) along with those for the synthesis of coenzyme B12 (cob operon). On the other hand, it did not possess the genes for the fermentative metabolism of glycerol of Klebsiella pneumoniae, which consists of both the oxidative (dhaD and dhaK) and reductive (dhaB and dhaT) pathways. In shake-flask cultivation under aerobic conditions, Y19 could grow well with glycerol as the sole carbon source and produced 1,3-PDO. The level of 1,3-PDO production was improved when vitamin B12 was added to the culture medium under aerobic conditions. Under anaerobic conditions, cell growth and 1,3-PDO production on glycerol was also possible, but only when an exogenous electron acceptor, such as nitrate or fumarate, was added. This is the first report of the glycerol metabolism and 1,3-PDO production by C. amalonaticus Y19. 相似文献

The significant dependence of agricultural productivity on pest control requires pest distribution predictions at an early stage of pest invasion. Because pest cycles are critically affected by climate, climate is one of the most important factors for predicting an invasive pest. CLIMEX is a highly effective tool that can predict potential geographical species distributions, and test the regional suitability for a target species' habitat based on data including climate change scenarios. CLIMEX has been recently used in Europe, North America, China and Australia, among others. However, for modeling species distributions in Korea, the use of the model has been limited to date. This study aimed to first introduce the function and application of CLIMEX by reviewing important studies using this model. Second, we investigated previous studies using the model simulation to demonstrate the practical applicability of CLIMEX for the agricultural sector, and its use in forecasting. 相似文献

Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LRS) plays an important role in amino acid-dependent mTORC1 signaling, which is known to be associated with cellular metabolism and proliferation. Therefore, LRS-targeting small molecules that can suppress mTORC1 activation may provide an alternative strategy to current anticancer therapy. In this work, we developed a library of leucyladenylate sulfate analogues by extensively modifying three different pharmacophoric regions comprising adenine, ribose and leucine. Several effective compounds were identified by cell-based mTORC1 activation assays and further tested for anticancer activity. The selected compounds mostly exhibited selective cytotoxicity toward five different cancer cell lines, supporting the hypothesis that the LRS-mediated mTORC1 pathway is a promising alternative target to current therapeutic approaches. 相似文献

Understanding the complex network and multi-functionality of proteins is one of the main objectives of post-genome research. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARSs) are the family of enzymes that are essential for cellular protein synthesis and viability that catalyze the attachment of specific amino acids to their cognate tRNAs. However, a lot of evidence has shown that these enzymes are multi-functional proteins that are involved in diverse cellular processes, such as tRNA processing, RNA splicing and trafficking, rRNA synthesis, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation. In addition, mammalian ARSs form a macromolecular complex with three auxiliary factors or with the elongation factor complex. Although the functional meaning and physiological significance of these complexes are poorly understood, recent data on the molecular interactions among the components for the multi-ARS complex are beginning to provide insights into the structural organization and cellular functions. In this review, the molecular mechanism for the assembly and functional implications of the multi-ARS complex will be discussed. 相似文献

Development and operation of a trickling biofilter system for continuous treatment of gas-phase trichloroethylene 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A parallel trickling biofilter (TBF) system that consists of two TBFs units in parallel, one for biodegradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) and the other for reactivation of an inactivated biofilm, was developed and operated for continuous treatment of gas-phase TCE by Burkholderia cepacia G4. For inlet loadings below 8.6 mg TCE l–1 d–1, complete removal of TCE was achieved. The maximal TCE elimination capacity was 17 mg l–1 d–1. 相似文献
