  • Growth factors that repress myoblast differentiation sustain phosphorylation of a specific site on histone H1. 7678408

    A monoclonal antibody (12D11) is presented that binds an epitope on histone H1 only when it is phosphorylated. Skeletal myoblasts, which are cultured in high mitogen medium to induce proliferation and inhibit differentiation, contain histone H1 reactive with monoclonal antibody 12D11, whereas differentiated myocytes and adult skeletal muscle do not. Phosphorylation of H1 at the 12D11 epitope, as assessed by antibody binding, is also induced and maintained in myoblasts cultured in low mitogen medium supplemented with transforming growth factor beta, which blocks differentiation but allows the cells to withdraw from the cell cycle (Olson, E., Sternberg, E., Hu, J., Spizz, G., and Wilcox, C. (1986) J. Cell Biol. 103, 1799-1805; Massague, J., Cheipetz, S., Endo, T., and Nadal-Ginard, B. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 83, 8206-8210). These observations suggest that phosphorylation of histone H1 at the 12D11 epitope is associated with the negative regulation of myoblast differentiation by growth factors.

  • Overexpression, purification, DNA binding, and dimerization of the Escherichia coli uvrD gene product (helicase II). 8380701

    We have subcloned the Escherichia coli uvrD gene under control of the inducible phage lambda PL promoter and report a procedure for the large-scale purification of helicase II protein. Yields of approximately 60 mg of > 99% pure helicase II protein, free of detectable nuclease activity, are obtained starting from 250 g of induced E. coli cells containing the overexpression plasmid. Overproduction of helicase II protein at these levels is lethal in E. coli. The extinction coefficient of helicase II protein was determined to be epsilon 280 = 1.06 (+/- 0.05) x 10(5) M-1 (monomer) cm-1 [20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.3 at 25 degrees C), 0.2 M NaCl, and 20% (v/v) glycerol, 25 degrees C]. We also present a preliminary characterization of the dimerization and DNA binding properties of helicase II and a systematic examination of its solubility properties. The apparent site size of a helicase II monomer on ss-DNA is 10 +/- 2 nucleotides as determined by quenching of the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of the protein upon binding poly(dT). In the absence of DNA, helicase II protein can self-assemble to form at least a dimeric species at concentrations > 0.25 microM (monomer) and exists in a monomer-dimer equilibrium under a variety of solution conditions. However, upon binding short oligodeoxynucleotides, the dimeric form of helicase II is stabilized, and dimerization stimulates the ss-DNA-dependent ATPase activity, suggesting that the dimer is functionally important. On the basis of these observations and similarities between helicase II and the E. coli Rep helicase, which appears to function as a dimer [Chao, K., & Lohman, T. (1991) J. Mol. Biol. 221, 1165-1181], we suggest that the active form of helicase II may also be a dimer or larger oligomer.

  • The SH2 and SH3 domains of mammalian Grb2 couple the EGF receptor to the Ras activator mSos1. 8479540

    Many tyrosine kinases, including the receptors for hormones such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), nerve growth factor and insulin, transmit intracellular signals through Ras proteins. Ligand binding to such receptors stimulates Ras guanine-nucleotide-exchange activity and increases the level of GTP-bound Ras, suggesting that these tyrosine kinases may activate a guanine-nucleotide releasing protein (GNRP). In Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila, genetic studies have shown that Ras activation by tyrosine kinases requires the protein Sem-5/drk, which contains a single Src-homology (SH) 2 domain and two flanking SH3 domains. Sem-5 is homologous to the mammalian protein Grb2, which binds the autophosphorylated EGF receptor and other phosphotyrosine-containing proteins such as Shc through its SH2 domain. Here we show that in rodent fibroblasts, the SH3 domains of Grb2 are bound to the proline-rich carboxy-terminal tail of mSos1, a protein homologous to Drosophila Sos. Sos is required for Ras signalling and contains a central domain related to known Ras-GNRPs. EGF stimulation induces binding of the Grb2-mSos1 complex to the autophosphorylated EGF receptor, and mSos1 phosphorylation. Grb2 therefore appears to link tyrosine kinases to a Ras-GNRP in mammalian cells.

  • Urinary metanephrine and normetanephrine determined without extraction by using liquid chromatography and coulometric array detection. 8375055

    We describe a procedure for the direct measurement of metanephrine (MN) and normetanephrine (NMN) in hydrolyzed urine, using HPLC with coulometric array detection. Acid-hydrolyzed samples were diluted and filtered before separation by isocratic reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography. Eight serial coulometric sensors, set at incrementally increasing anodic potentials, were used to screen lower-oxidizing interferences and provide stepwise oxidation of the metanephrines. Voltammetric behavior across three adjacent sensors was used to assess resolution and aid in peak identification. Values obtained in commercial controls were consistently within the specified target range. Variability, expressed as CV, was 5.45-9.22% between runs and 1.60-4.52% within-run for both compounds. The limit of detection was 2.6 micrograms/L for MN and 2.8 micrograms/L for NMN, with a linear response to 15.0 mg/L for both analytes. Results from patients' samples correlated well with those by a method involving dual ion-exchange extraction (r = 0.963, n = 82 for MN; r = 0.9768, n = 83 for NMN). This procedure provided high selectivity and objective peak purity information while greatly simplifying sample preparation.

  • Plasma and urinary oxalate and glycolate in healthy subjects. 8419038

    High-performance ion chromatography (HPIC) has been widely used for oxalate analysis and, more recently, for glycolate analysis. We describe a procedure for sample preparation in which the plasma ultrafiltrate is acidified during harvesting with a cation-exchange resin, and the chloride is removed before the ion chromatography, which is performed with a newly developed AS10 column. The same ultrafiltrate sample is analyzed for glycolate. For plasma oxalate, the mean recovery of sample in eluted fractions was 95-96%, and intraassay CV was 6.2-8.1%. The reference interval (mean +/- 2 SD) for men was 0.8-3.2 mumol/L and for women, 1.0-2.6 mumol/L. For urinary oxalate, the reference interval for men was 175-560 mumol/day and for women, 107-432 mumol/day. For plasma glycolate, the mean analytical recovery was 96-98%, and the intra-assay CV was 2.4-6.2%. The reference interval for men was 1.9-7.5 mumol/L and for women, 1.4-7.4 mumol/L. For urinary glycolate, the reference interval for men was 0-1400 mumol/day and for women, 91-1001 mumol/day.

  • T cells are the principal source of interleukin-5 mRNA in allergen-induced rhinitis. 8398174

    We have investigated the phenotype of interleukin-5 (IL-5) mRNA+ cells in the nasal mucosa of subjects with allergic rhinitis. Serial cryostat sections were cut from paraformaldehyde-fixed snap-frozen nasal biopsies from six patients, before and 24 h after local allergen provocation with grass pollen. Immunocytochemistry (APAAP) was followed by in situ hybridization on the same sections. For immunocytochemistry, antibodies against CD3, tryptase, and major basic protein (MBP) were used to identify T cells, mast cells, and eosinophils, respectively. Hybridization studies were performed using a Digoxigenin-labeled IL-5 riboprobe. Nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) and X-phosphate-5-bromo-4-chloro-3- indoly phosphate (BCIP) served as chromogens to detect hybridized IL-5 mRNA signals. The majority of IL-5 mRNA+ cells were CD3+ (83.2%), whereas the remainder were either tryptase+ (11.3%) or MBP+ (5.4%). In contrast, only a few IL-5 mRNA+ cells were observed in nasal biopsies before challenge, all of which were co-localized to CD3+ cells. These results indicate that CD3+ cells are the principal cellular source of IL-5 transcripts in the nasal mucosa 24 h after allergen-induced late-phase nasal responses.

  • The substrate specificity and structure of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-activated protein kinase-2. 8280084

    The substrate specificity of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-activated protein kinase-2 (MAPKAP kinase-2) was investigated by using synthetic peptides related to the N-terminus of glycogen synthase. The minimum sequence required for efficient phosphorylation was found to be Xaa-Xaa-Hyd-Xaa-Arg-Xaa-Xaa-Ser-Xaa-Xaa, where Hyd is a bulky hydrophobic residue (Phe > Leu > Val >>> Ala), and the peptide Lys-Lys-Phe-Asn-Arg-Thr-Leu-Ser-Val-Ala was phosphorylated with a Km of 9.3 microM and Vmax. of 10 mumol/min per mg. MAPKAP kinase-1 (a homologue of ribosomal protein S6 kinase) also requires an arginine three residues N-terminal to the serine (position n-3), but not a hydrophobic residue at position n-5. Neither MAPKAP kinase-1 nor MAPKAP kinase-2 could tolerate a proline residue at position n + 1, indicating that their specificities do not overlap with that of MAP kinase. The specificity of calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-II resembled that of MAPKAP kinase-2, except that it could tolerate replacement of the arginine by a lysine and the phosphorylation-site serine by a threonine residue. Partial cDNAs encoding MAPKAP kinase-2 were isolated from rabbit and human skeletal muscle and human teratocarcinoma libraries, and Northern-blotting experiments revealed a single 3.3 kb mRNA transcript present at similar levels in six human tissues examined. The catalytic domain was most similar (35-40% identity) to calmodulin-dependent protein kinases II and IV, phosphorylase kinase, putative serine kinase H1 and the C-terminal domain of MAPKAP kinase-1, which form one branch of the protein kinase phylogenetic tree. The sequence N-terminal to the catalytic domain is proline-rich and contains two putative SH3-binding sites. The threonine residue phosphorylated by MAP kinase lies immediately C-terminal to the catalytic domain and is followed by a nuclear localization signal, Lys-Lys-(Xaa)10-Lys-Arg-Arg-Lys-Lys, near the C-terminus.

  • mb-1: a new marker for B-lineage lymphoblastic leukemia. 8338949

    The expression of the Ig-linked mb-1 polypeptide was analyzed by immunocytochemistry (alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase technique) using a specific monoclonal antibody in 165 cases of acute leukemia, with 88 being lymphoblastic (ALL) and 77 myeloid (AML). The purpose of the study was to investigate the specificity of this reagent for B-lineage cases and its reactivity on leukemias that coexpress myeloid and B-cell antigens (biphenotypic). The majority (89%) of 72 B-cell precursor ALL patients were positive. Of these, mb-1 was expressed in all 9 patients with early-B-ALL (CD10-, c mu-), in all 11 patients with pre-B-ALL (c mu+) and in the single case of B-ALL (smIgM+). Forty-three of 51 patients with common-ALL (CD10+, c mu+) were also positive. All 16 T-lineage ALL patients and 72 (93.5%) of the AML patients examined were mb-1 negative. Four of the 5 mb-1-positive AML patients were considered biphenotypic and expressed other B-cell antigens such as CD10, CD19, and/or cCD22 and all showed rearrangement of the Ig heavy chain genes. Within the AML cases, mb-1 and cCD22 were more useful than other B-cell antigens in detecting biphenotypic cases, and mb-1 showed the highest correlation with the clonal rearrangement of Ig heavy chain genes. These results indicate that mb-1 is a sensitive and specific reagent for B-lineage blasts that will aid in the classification of B-cell precursor ALL and in the identification of biphenotypic leukemia presenting as AML.

  • Cellular localizations of AMPA glutamate receptors within the basal forebrain magnocellular complex of rat and monkey. 8386757

    The cellular distributions of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptors within the rodent and nonhuman primate basal forebrain magnocellular complex (BFMC) were demonstrated immunocytochemically using anti-peptide antibodies that recognize glutamate receptor (GluR) subunit proteins (i.e., GluR1, GluR4, and a conserved region of GluR2, GluR3, and GluR4c). In both species, many large GluR1-positive neuronal perikarya and aspiny dendrites are present within the medial septal nucleus, the nucleus of the diagonal band of Broca, and the nucleus basalis of Meynert. In this population of neurons in rat and monkey, GluR2/3/4c and GluR4 immunoreactivities are less abundant than GluR1 immunoreactivity. In rat, GluR1 does not colocalize with ChAT, but, within many neurons, GluR1 does colocalize with GABA, glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), and parvalbumin immunoreactivities. GluR1- and GABA/GAD-positive neurons intermingle extensively with ChAT-positive neurons. In monkey, however, most GluR1-immunoreactive neurons express ChAT and calbindin-D28 immunoreactivities. The results reveal that noncholinergic GABAergic neurons, within the BFMC of rat, express AMPA receptors, whereas cholinergic neurons in the BFMC of monkey express AMPA receptors. Thus, the cellular localizations of the AMPA subtype of GluR are different within the BFMC of rat and monkey, suggesting that excitatory synaptic regulation of distinct subsets of BFMC neurons may differ among species. We conclude that, in the rodent, BFMC GABAergic neurons receive glutamatergic inputs, whereas cholinergic neurons either do not receive glutamatergic synapses or utilize GluR subtypes other than AMPA receptors. In contrast, in primate, basal forebrain cholinergic neurons are innervated directly by glutamatergic afferents and utilize AMPA receptors.

  • Hepatitis C virus stimulates the phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase III alpha-dependent phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate production that is essential for its replication. 21697487

    Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase III alpha (PI4KA) is an essential cofactor of hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication. We initiated this study to determine whether HCV directly engages PI4KA to establish its replication. PI4KA kinase activity was found to be absolutely required for HCV replication using a small interfering RNA transcomplementation assay. Moreover, HCV infection or subgenomic HCV replicons produced a dramatic increase in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) accumulation throughout the cytoplasm, which partially colocalized with the endoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, the majority of PI4P accumulated at the Golgi bodies in uninfected cells. The increase in PI4P was not observed after infection with UV-inactivated HCV and did not reflect changes in PI4KA protein or RNA abundance. In an analysis of U2OS cell lines with inducible expression of the HCV polyprotein or individual viral proteins, viral polyprotein expression resulted in enhanced cytoplasmic PI4P production. Increased PI4P accumulation following HCV protein expression was precluded by silencing the expression of PI4KA, but not the related PI4KB. Silencing PI4KA also resulted in aberrant agglomeration of viral replicase proteins, including NS5A, NS5B, and NS3. NS5A alone, but not other viral proteins, stimulated PI4P production in vivo and enhanced PI4KA kinase activity in vitro. Lastly, PI4KA coimmunoprecipitated with NS5A from infected Huh-7.5 cells and from dually transfected 293T cells. In sum, these results suggest that HCV NS5A modulation of PI4KA-dependent PI4P production influences replication complex formation.
