  • Involvement of valosin-containing protein, an ATPase Co-purified with IkappaBalpha and 26 S proteasome, in ubiquitin-proteasome-mediated degradation of IkappaBalpha. 9452483

    The inactivation of the prototype NF-kappaB inhibitor, IkappaBalpha, occurs through a series of ordered processes including phosphorylation, ubiquitin conjugation, and proteasome-mediated degradation. We identify valosin-containing protein (VCP), an AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) family member, that co-precipitates with IkappaBalpha immune complexes. The ubiquitinated IkappaBalpha conjugates readily associate with VCP both in vivo and in vitro, and this complex appears dissociated from NF-kappaB. In ultracentrifugation analysis, physically associated VCP and ubiquitinated IkappaBalpha complexes sediment in the 19 S fractions, while the unmodified IkappaBalpha sediments in the 4.5 S fractions deficient in VCP. Phosphorylation and ubiquitination of IkappaBalpha are critical for VCP binding, which in turn is necessary but not sufficient for IkappaBalpha degradation; while the N-terminal domain of IkappaBalpha is required in all three reactions, both N- and C-terminal domains are required in degradation. Further, VCP co-purifies with the 26 S proteasome on two-dimensional gels and co-immunoprecipitates with subunits of the 26 S proteasome. Our results suggest that VCP may provide a physical and functional link between IkappaBalpha and the 26 S proteasome and play an important role in the proteasome-mediated degradation of IkappaBalpha.

  • Insertional chromatin immunoprecipitation: a method for isolating specific genomic regions. 19804873

    We established a novel method, insertional chromatin immunoprecipitation (iChIP), for isolation of specific genomic regions. In iChIP, specific genomic domains are immunoprecipitated with antibody against a tag, which is fused to the DNA-binding domain of an exogenous DNA-binding protein, whose recognition sequence is inserted into the genomic domains of interest. The iChIP method will be a useful tool for dissecting chromatin structure of genomic region of interest.

  • Proteomic analysis in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with atypical nonketotic hyperglycinemia and pulmonary hypertension - A pilot study. 21136962

    A variant phenotype of nonketotic hyperglycinemia has been described by our group associated with pulmonary hypertension. The aim of this study is to investigate the cerebrospinal fluid proteomes to get an insight into this neurodegenerative process producing leukoencephalopathy with white matter spongiform degeneration. DIGE and MALDI-TOF-TOF analyses were performed to carry out the proteomic study of four patients against three normal controls and one additional control of a classical nonketotic hyperglycinemia. The differential proteomic analysis showed a displacement of some series of spots toward the acidic side. The shifted proteins showed a high degree of carbonylation and increased methionine sulfoxidation was found in cystatin C and in vitamin-D-binding protein. These findings in addition to the increase of serum malondialdehyde concentration provide evidence of an oxidative stress in the patients under study, which is probably systemic rather than mainly confined to the CNS. The similarities of our findings with those found in other neurodegenerative diseases suggest that oxidative damage is commonly involved in these pathologies. DIGE technology improves the 2-D PAGE differential analysis and it is suitable in proteomic studies with a small number of cases.

  • Rapid immunoblot and kinase assay tests for a syndromal form of X linked mental retardation: Coffin-Lowry syndrome. 9832033

    Coffin-Lowry syndrome (CLS) is a syndromal form of X linked mental retardation, in which some associated facial, hand, and skeletal abnormalities are diagnostic features. Accurate diagnosis, critical for genetic counselling, is often difficult, especially in early childhood. We have recently shown that Coffin-Lowry syndrome is caused by mutations in the gene encoding RSK2, a growth factor regulated protein kinase. RSK2 mutations are very heterogeneous and most of them lead to premature termination of translation or to loss of phosphotransferase activity or both. In the present study, we have evaluated immunoblot and RSK2 kinase assays as a rapid and simple diagnostic test for CLS, using cultured lymphoblastoid or fibroblast cell lines. Western blot analysis failed to detect RSK2 in six patients, suggesting the presence of truncated proteins in these patients. This conclusion was confirmed in four patients, in whom the causative mutations, all leading to premature termination of translation, were identified. Of four patients showing a normal amount of RSK2 protein on western blot and tested for RSK2 phosphotransferase activity, one had a dramatically impaired activity. Analysis of the RSK2 cDNA sequence in this patient showed a mutation of a putative phosphorylation site that would be critical for RSK2 activity. Preliminary results show that, at least, the western blot protocol can be successfully applied to lymphocyte protein extracts prepared directly from blood samples. These assays promise to become important diagnostic tools for CLS, particularly with regard to very young patients with no family history of the condition.

  • Immunohistochemical and immunoblot analysis of gamma-aminobutyric acid B receptor in the prefrontal cortex of subjects with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. 15955420

    Immunohistochemical and immunoblot techniques were employed to examine the distribution and expression of GABA(B) receptors in the prefrontal cortex of postmortem subjects with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. GABA(B)R1a/b immunoreactivity was observed in the neuronal soma and dendrites as well as in the neuropil in the control subjects. GABA(B)R1a/b immunolabeling in neurons from the subjects with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder was less intense than in those from the control subjects. In control subjects, the distribution of GABA(B)R2 immunoreactivity was found to be similar to that of GABA(B)R1a/b. GABA(B)R2 immunolabeling in neurons from the bipolar disorder group appeared less intense than that of the normal controls as well as that in schizophrenic groups. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated a significant decrease in GABA(B)R1a levels in schizophrenic subjects, while there was a significant decrease in GABA(B)R1a, GABA(B)R1b, and GABA(B)R2 levels in bipolar subjects compared with the controls. The present study suggests that the GABA(B) receptor is involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and further suggests that the patterns of changes in GABA(B) receptor subtypes are different between these two disorders.

  • Septin 11 is present in GABAergic synapses and plays a functional role in the cytoarchitecture of neurons and GABAergic synaptic connectivity. 19380581

    Mass spectrometry and immunoblot analysis of a rat brain fraction enriched in type-II postsynaptic densities and postsynaptic GABAergic markers showed enrichment in the protein septin 11. Septin 11 is expressed throughout the brain, being particularly high in the spiny branchlets of the Purkinje cells in the molecular layer of cerebellum and in the olfactory bulb. Immunofluorescence of cultured hippocampal neurons showed that 54 +/- 4% of the GABAergic synapses and 25 +/- 2% of the glutamatergic synapses had colocalizing septin 11 clusters. Similar colocalization numbers were found in the molecular layer of cerebellar sections. In cultured hippocampal neurons, septin 11 clusters were frequently present at the base of dendritic protrusions and at the bifurcation points of the dendritic branches. Electron microscopy immunocytochemistry of the rat brain cerebellum revealed the accumulation of septin 11 at the neck of dendritic spines, at the bifurcation of dendritic branches, and at some GABAergic synapses. Knocking down septin 11 in cultured hippocampal neurons with septin 11 small hairpin RNAs showed (i) reduced dendritic arborization; (ii) decreased density and increased length of dendritic protrusions; and (iii) decreased GABAergic synaptic contacts that these neurons receive. The results indicate that septin 11 plays important roles in the cytoarchitecture of neurons, including dendritic arborization and dendritic spines, and that septin 11 also plays a role in GABAergic synaptic connectivity.

  • Leptin increases hepatic insulin sensitivity and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B expression. 14976221

    Leptin has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism in obese diabetic ob/ob mice, yet the mechanisms remain poorly defined. We found that 2 d of leptin treatment improved fasting but not postprandial glucose homeostasis, suggesting enhanced hepatic insulin sensitivity. Consistent with this hypothesis, leptin improved in vivo insulin receptor (IR) activation in liver, but not in skeletal muscle or fat. To explore the cellular mechanism by which leptin up-regulates hepatic IR activation, we examined the expression of the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B, recently implicated as an important negative regulator of insulin signaling. Unexpectedly, liver PTP1B protein abundance was increased by leptin to levels similar to lean controls, whereas levels in muscle and fat remained unchanged. The ability of leptin to augment liver IR activation and PTP1B expression was also observed in vitro in human hepatoma cells (HepG2). However, overexpression of PTP1B in HepG2 cells led to diminished insulin-induced IR phosphorylation, supporting the role of PTP1B as a negative regulator of IR activation in hepatocytes. Collectively, our results suggest that leptin acutely improves hepatic insulin sensitivity in vivo with concomitant increases in PTP1B expression possibly serving to counterregulate insulin action and to maintain insulin signaling in proper balance.

  • Characterization of NMDA receptor subunit-specific antibodies: distribution of NR2A and NR2B receptor subunits in rat brain and ontogenic profile in the cerebellum. 7790859

    Selective antisera for NMDA receptor subunits NR2A and NR2B have been developed. Each antiserum identifies a single band on an immunoblot at approximately 175 kDa that appears to be the appropriate subunit of the NMDA receptor. Using these antisera the relative densities of the subunits in eight areas of adult rat brain have been determined. The NR2A subunit was found to be at its highest level in hippocampus and cerebral cortex, to be at intermediate levels in striatum, olfactory tubercle, mid-brain, olfactory bulb, and cerebellum, and to be at lowest levels in the pons-medulla. The NR2B subunit was found to be expressed at its highest levels in the olfactory tubercle, hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and cerebral cortex. Intermediate levels were expressed in striatum and mid-brain, and low levels were detected in the pons-medulla. No signal for NR2B was found in the cerebellum. These regional distributions were compared with that for [3H]MK-801 binding sites. It was found that although the distribution of the NR2A subunit corresponds well with radioligand binding, the distribution of the NR2B subunit does not. The ontogenic profiles of NR2A and NR2B subunits in the rat cerebellum were also determined. Just following birth [postnatal day (P) 2] NR2A subunits are undetectable, whereas NR2B subunits are expressed at amounts easily measurable. Beginning at about P12 the levels of NR2A rise rapidly to reach adult levels by P22. At the same time (P12), levels of NR2B protein begin to decline rapidly to reach undetectable levels by 22 days after birth.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
