Regulation of expression of the stress response gene, Osp94: identification of the tonicity response element and intracellular signalling pathways.
Osp94 (osmotic stress protein of 94 kDa) is known to be up-regulated by hypertonic and heat-shock stresses in mouse renal inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD3) cells. To investigate the molecular mechanism of transcriptional regulation of the Osp94 gene under these stresses, we cloned and characterized the 5'-flanking region of the gene. Sequence analysis of the proximal 4 kb 5'-flanking reg...
متن کاملProtein structure and hydration probed by SANS and osmotic stress.
Interactions governing protein folding, stability, recognition, and activity are mediated by hydration. Here, we use small-angle neutron scattering coupled with osmotic stress to investigate the hydration of two proteins, lysozyme and guanylate kinase (GK), in the presence of solutes. By taking advantage of the neutron contrast variation that occurs upon addition of these solutes, the number of...
متن کاملOsmotic stress is accompanied by protein glycation in Arabidopsis thaliana
Among the environmental alterations accompanying oncoming climate changes, drought is the most important factor influencing crop plant productivity. In plants, water deficit ultimately results in the development of oxidative stress and accumulation of osmolytes (e.g. amino acids and carbohydrates) in all tissues. Up-regulation of sugar biosynthesis in parallel to the increasing overproduction o...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Hsp110/SSE gene family response to hyperosmolality and other stresses.
Hsp110, Osp94, and Hsp70RY are members of the recently described Hsp110/SSE subfamily of (heat and osmotic) stress proteins whose members are structurally related to the Hsp70/BiP gene superfamily. To date, little is known about the response of this gene family to stresses in vitro or in vivo. In this study, an analysis of mRNA expression showed that Hsp110 and Osp94, like Hsp70, are induced in...
متن کاملOsmotic Shock Protein
Purpose. Bovine lens epithelial cells (BLECs) accumulate osmotically active organic solutes (i.e., osmolytes) including myo-inositol when exposed to hypertonic stress (osmotic shock). In hypertonic medium, the increase in myo-inositol accumulation is attributed to an elevation in activity of Na/myo-inositol cotransporter(s). The authors report the nature of the hypertonicity-induced enhancement...
