Integrated control of protein degradation in C. elegans muscle
Protein degradation is a fundamental cellular process, the genomic control of which is incompletely understood. The advent of transgene-coded reporter proteins has enabled the development of C. elegans into a model for studying this problem. The regulation of muscle protein degradation is surprisingly complex, integrating multiple signals from hypodermis, intestine, neurons and muscle itself. W...
متن کاملCodon bias and heterologous protein expression.
The expression of functional proteins in heterologous hosts is a cornerstone of modern biotechnology. Unfortunately, proteins are often difficult to express outside their original context. They might contain codons that are rarely used in the desired host, come from organisms that use non-canonical code or contain expression-limiting regulatory elements within their coding sequence. Improvement...
متن کاملHigh-throughput expression of C. elegans proteins.
Proteome-scale studies of protein three-dimensional structures should provide valuable information for both investigating basic biology and developing therapeutics. Critical for these endeavors is the expression of recombinant proteins. We selected Caenorhabditis elegans as our model organism in a structural proteomics initiative because of the high quality of its genome sequence and the availa...
متن کاملCloning and Codon-optimized Expression of Structural Protein Hypervariable Region of VP2 from Infectious Bursal Disease Virus
Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is the causative agent of Gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. Structural protein VP2 of IBDV is the most frequently studied protein due to its significant roles in virus attachment, protective immunity, and serotype specificity. The objective of the present study was to improve the expression of hypervariable re...
متن کاملSexually dimorphic control of gene expression in sensory neurons regulates decision-making behavior in C. elegans
Animal behavior is directed by the integration of sensory information from internal states and the environment. Neuroendocrine regulation of diverse behaviors of Caenorhabditis elegans is under the control of the DAF-7/TGF-β ligand that is secreted from sensory neurons. Here, we show that C. elegans males exhibit an altered, male-specific expression pattern of daf-7 in the ASJ sensory neuron pa...
