  • Microbiologic oxidation of isosafrole into piperonal. 12721444

    The biotransformation of isosafrole by Cladosporium sphaerospermum yielded piperonal, which is a compound of great commercial importance in the flavor and fragrance industries. The experiments were performed in 500-mL conical flasks containing 100 mL of Czapek-modified medium in an orbital shaker with controlled agitation and temperature. Spores of C. sphaerospermum were used as inocula, and after 96 h of incubation the substrate was added to the culture. Samples of 2 mL were withdrawn at 24-h intervals and analyzed by gas chromatography, (GC) and/or GC/MS spectroscopy.

  • Differential trafficking of GluR7 kainate receptor subunit splice variants. 15805114

    Kainate receptors (KARs) are heteromeric ionotropic glutamate receptors that play a variety of roles in the regulation of synaptic network activity. The function of glutamate receptors (GluRs) is highly dependent on their surface density in specific neuronal domains. Alternative splicing is known to regulate surface expression of GluR5 and GluR6 subunits. The KAR subunit GluR7 exists under different splice variant isoforms in the C-terminal domain (GluR7a and GluR7b). Here we have studied the trafficking of GluR7 splice variants in cultured hippocampal neurons from wild-type and KAR mutant mice. We have found that alternative splicing regulates surface expression of GluR7-containing KARs. GluR7a and GluR7b differentially traffic from the ER to the plasma membrane. GluR7a is highly expressed at the plasma membrane, and its trafficking is dependent on a stretch of positively charged amino acids also found in GluR6a. In contrast, GluR7b is detected at the plasma membrane at a low level and retained mostly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The RXR motif of GluR7b does not act as an ER retention motif, at variance with other receptors and ion channels, but might be involved during the assembly process. Like GluR6a, GluR7a promotes surface expression of ER-retained subunit splice variants when assembled in heteromeric KARs. However, our results also suggest that this positive regulation of KAR trafficking is limited by the ability of different combinations of subunits to form heteromeric receptor assemblies. These data further define the complex rules that govern membrane delivery and subcellular distribution of KARs.

  • Subunit composition and alternative splicing regulate membrane delivery of kainate receptors. 15014126

    Kainate receptors (KARs) are heteromeric ionotropic glutamate receptors (GluRs) that play various roles in the regulation of synaptic transmission. The KAR subunits GluR5 and GluR6 exist under different splice variant isoforms in the C-terminal domain (GluR5a, GluR5b, GluR5c, GluR6a, GluR6b). The differential role of KAR subunit splice variants is presently unknown. In transfected COS-7 cells and neurons from wild-type and GluR5 x GluR6 mice, we have found that the subcellular localization and membrane delivery differed between these splice variants. GluR6a was highly expressed at the plasma membrane. GluR6b, GluR5a, and GluR5b were detected at lower levels in the plasma membrane and mainly colocalized with calreticulin in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). GluR5c was strongly retained in the ER by an RXR motif. GluR6a acted as a key subunit splice variant promoting surface expression of ER-retained subunit splice variants when assembled in heteromeric KARs. Surface expression of GluR6a was independent of its PDZ (postsynaptic density-95/discs large/zona occludens-1) binding motif and was promoted by a stretch of four basic amino acid residues at its C terminus. Overall, splice variants and subunit composition of KARs regulate receptor trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane.

  • Identification and molecular characterization of the mammalian α-kleisin RAD21L. 21527826

    Meiosis is a fundamental process that generates new combinations between maternal and paternal genomes and haploid gametes from diploid progenitors. Many of the meiosis-specific events stem from the behavior of the cohesin complex (CC), a proteinaceous ring structure that entraps sister chromatids until the onset of anaphase. CCs ensure chromosome segregation, participate in DNA repair, regulate gene expression, and also contribute to synaptonemal complex (SC) formation at meiosis by keeping long-range distant DNA interactions through its conserved structure. Studies from yeast to humans have led to the assumption that Scc1/RAD21 is the α-kleisin that closes the tripartite CC that entraps two DNA molecules in mitosis, while its paralog REC8 is essential for meiosis. Here we describe the identification of RAD21L, a novel mammalian CC subunit with homology to the RAD21/REC8 α-kleisin subfamily, which is expressed in mouse testis. RAD21L interacts with other cohesin subunits such as SMC1α, SMC1b, SMC3 and with the meiosis-specific STAG3 protein. Thus, our results demonstrate the existence of a new meiotic-specific CC constituted by this α-kleisin and expand the view of REC8 as the only specific meiotic α-kleisin.
