Functional cooperation of the proapoptotic Bcl2 family proteins Bmf and Bim in vivo.
Bcl2-modifying factor (Bmf) is a member of the BH3-only group of proapoptotic proteins. To test the role of Bmf in vivo, we constructed mice with a series of mutated Bmf alleles that disrupt Bmf expression, prevent Bmf phosphorylation by the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) on Ser(74), or mimic Bmf phosphorylation on Ser(74). We report that the loss of Bmf causes defects in uterovaginal develo...
متن کاملJuglone inactivates cysteine-rich proteins required for progression through mitosis.
The parvulin peptidyl-prolyl isomerase Pin1 catalyzes cis-trans isomerization of p(S/T)-P bonds and might alter conformation and function of client proteins. Since the trans conformation of p(S/T)-P bonds is preferred by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), Pin1 may facilitate PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation. Juglone irreversibly inhibits parvulins and is often used to study the function of Pin1 in v...
متن کاملProtein phosphatase 2A inactivates Bcl2's antiapoptotic function by dephosphorylation and up-regulation of Bcl2-p53 binding.
Bcl2 is associated with chemoresistance and poor prognosis in patients with various hematologic malignancies. DNA damage-induced p53/Bcl2 interaction at the outer mitochondrial membrane results in a Bcl2 conformational change with loss of its antiapoptotic activity in interleukin-3-dependent myeloid H7 cells. Here we find that specific disruption of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity by eit...
متن کاملCytoprotective peptide humanin binds and inhibits proapoptotic Bcl-2/Bax family protein BimEL.
Humanin (HN) is a recently identified endogenous peptide that protects cells against cytotoxicity induced by various stimuli. Recently, we showed that HN binds to and inhibits Bax, a proapoptotic Bcl-2 family protein, suggesting a mechanism for HN action. In this study, we identified Bim, a Bcl-2 homology 3-only member of the Bcl-2/Bax family, as an additional HN target protein. Using in vitro ...
متن کاملA common catalytic mechanism for proteins of the HutI family.
Imidazolonepropionase (HutI) (imidazolone-5-propanote hydrolase, EC 3.5.2.7) is a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily and catalyzes the conversion of imidazolone-5-propanoate to N-formimino-L-glutamate in the histidine degradation pathway. We have determined the three-dimensional crystal structures of HutI from Agrobacterium tumefaciens (At-HutI) and an environmental sample from the Sargas...
