Three membrane proteins, OmpF porin from Escherichia coli, bacteriorhodopsin from Halobacterium salinarium, and the hexagonally packed intermediate (HPI) layer from Deinoccocus radiodurans, were investigated with the atomic force microscope in buffer solution. A resolution of up to 0.8 nm allowed structural differences of individual proteins to be detected. OmpF porin exhibits different static ...
Aberrant activation of the hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway is one of the most prevalent abnormalities in human cancer. Tumors with cell autonomous Hh activation (e.g., medulloblastomas) can acquire secondary mutations at the Smoothened (Smo) antagonist binding pocket, which render them refractory to conventional Hh inhibitors. A class of Hh pathway inhibitors (HPI) has been identified that bloc...
Several pathogenicity islands have recently been identified in different bacterial species, including a high-pathogenicity island (HPI) in Yersinia enterocolitica 1B. In Y. pestis, a 102-kb chromosomal fragment (pgm locus) that carries genes involved in iron acquisition and colony pigmentation can be deleted en bloc. In this study, characterization and mapping of the 102-kb region of Y. pestis ...
The purpose of this report was to evaluate the expression patterns of selected glutathione transferase genes (gst1, gst18, gst23 and gst24) in the tissues of two maize (Zea mays L.) varieties (relatively resistant Ambrozja and susceptible Tasty Sweet) that were colonized with oligophagous bird cherry-oat aphid (Rhopalosiphum padi L.) or monophagous grain aphid (Sitobion avenae L.). Simultaneous...
Developmental, physiological, and behavioral adjustments in response to environmental change are crucial for animal survival. In vertebrates, the neuroendocrine stress system, comprised of the hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal/interrenal glands (HPA/HPI axis) plays a central role in adaptive stress responses. Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is the primary hypothalamic neurohormone regul...
The effect of experimental hyperthyroidism, realized by T(4) injection, on central mediators of the hypothalamo-pituitary-interrenal axis (HPI-axis) in common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) was studied. Our results show that hyperthyroidism evokes a marked 3.2-fold reduction in basal plasma cortisol levels. Corticotropin-releasing hormone-binding protein (CRH-BP) mRNA levels in the hypothalamus, mea...
Basal activity of the hypothalamo-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis changes over development in larval amphibians, but development of the responsiveness of this axis to an external stressor has not been studied. We compared developmental changes in whole-body corticosterone content of two anuran amphibian species, Rana pipiens (family Ranidae) and Xenopus laevis (family Pipidae). We also examined...
Two cysteine proteinase genes of the papain family, NbCYP1 and NbCYP2, were amplified from cDNA of Nicotiana benthamiana leaves infected with the hemibiotrophic fungus Colletotrichum destructivum. Both genes showed peak expression corresponding with the switch from biotrophic to necrotrophic growth by C. destructivum at 72 h post-inoculation (HPI). For N. benthamiana inoculated with the incompa...
Cortisol, the primary circulating corticosteroid in teleosts, is elevated during stress following activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis. Cortisol exerts genomic effects on target tissues in part by activating glucocorticoid receptors (GR). Despite a well-established negative feedback loop involved in plasma cortisol regulation, the role of GR in the functioning of the H...
Involvement of hyperprolinemia in cognitive and psychiatric features of the 22q11 deletion syndrome.
Microdeletions of the 22q11 region, responsible for the velo-cardio-facial syndrome (VCFS), are associated with an increased risk for psychosis and mental retardation. Recently, it has been shown in a hyperprolinemic mouse model that an interaction between two genes localized in the hemideleted region, proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) and catechol-o-methyl-transferase (COMT), could be involved in ...
