The variable portions of antigen receptor genes are assembled from component gene segments by a site-specific recombination reaction known as V(D)J recombination. The RAG1 and RAG2 proteins are the critical lymphoid cell-specific components of the recombination enzymatic machinery and are responsible for site-specific DNA recognition and cleavage. Previous studies had defined a minimal, recombi...
The kinase-associated protein phosphatase (KAPP) is a regulator of the receptor-like kinase (RLK) signaling pathway. Loss-of-function mutations rag1-1 (root attenuated growth1-1) and rag1-2, in the locus encoding KAPP, cause NaCl hypersensitivity in Arabidopsis thaliana. The NaCl hypersensitive phenotype exhibited by rag1 seedlings includes reduced shoot and primary root growth, root tip swelli...
The V(D)J recombination reaction in jawed vertebrates is catalyzed by the RAG1 and RAG2 proteins, which are believed to have emerged approximately 500 million years ago from transposon-encoded proteins. Yet no transposase sequence similar to RAG1 or RAG2 has been found. Here we show that the approximately 600-amino acid "core" region of RAG1 required for its catalytic activity is significantly ...
The RAG proteins are comprised of core endonuclease domains and noncore regions that modulate endonuclease activity. Mutation or deletion of noncore RAG regions in humans causes immunodeficiency and altered TCR repertoire, and mice expressing core but not full-length Rag1 (Rag1(C/C)) or Rag2 (Rag2(C/C)) exhibit lymphopenia, reflecting impaired V(D)J recombination and lymphocyte development. Rag...
The Rag1 gene confers antibiotic resistance to soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), and in 2010, varieties expressing Rag1 were released for commercial use in the United States. We do not know how Rag1 varieties will influence the broader community of defoliating insects that inhabit soybean fields. In 2010 and 2011, the preference and performance of pest insects that...
T cells contribute to the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke by yet unknown mechanisms. Mice with transgenic T-cell receptors (TCRs) and mutations in costimulatory molecules were used to define the minimal immunologic requirements for T cell–mediated ischemic brain damage. Stroke was induced in recombination activating gene 1–deficient (RAG1 / ) mice devoid of T and B cells, RAG1 / mice reconst...
Although the transcription factor, nuclear factorB (NFB) is known to regulate cell death and survival, its precise role in cell death within the central nervous system (CNS) remains unknown. We previously reported that mice with a homozygous deficiency for NFBp50 spontaneously developed optic neuropathy. We studied the expression and activation of pro-apoptotic factor(s), which mediate optic ne...
BACKGROUND The recombination-activating gene (RAG) 1/2 proteins play a critical role in the development of T and B cells by initiating the VDJ recombination process that leads to generation of a broad T-cell receptor (TCR) and B-cell receptor repertoire. Pathogenic mutations in the RAG1/2 genes result in various forms of primary immunodeficiency, ranging from T(-)B(-) severe combined immune def...
During B and T cell development, the RAG1/RAG2 protein complex cleaves DNA at conserved recombination signal sequences (RSS) to initiate V(D)J recombination. RAG1/2 has also been shown to catalyze transpositional strand transfer of RSS-containing substrates into target DNA to form branched DNA intermediates. We show that RAG1/2 can resolve these intermediates by two pathways. RAG1/2 catalyzes h...
Although the transcription factor, nuclear factor survival, its precise role in cell death within the central nervous system (CNS) remains unknown. previously reported that mice with a homozygous deficiency for NF optic neuropathy. We examined the expression and activation of pro mediate optic neuropathy in p50 known to regulate the recombination of immunoglobulin V(D)J. Experiments with gene e...
