Immunogenetics of systemic sclerosis.
P Dieudé, C Boileau and Y Allanore
Abstract
We are currently reaching a period of rapid data production. Several themes are already rising from the first wave of results. First, some genetic variants clearly predispose to multiple autoimmune diseases, thus providing evidence for a shared autoimmune genetic background. Second, multiple genes a... | PMID: 20863905

RSpred, a set of Hidden Markov Models to detect and classify the RIFIN and STEVOR proteins of Plasmodium falciparum.
Nicolas Joannin, Yvonne Kallberg, Mats Wahlgren and Bengt Persson
Abstract
We have manually curated the rif and stevor gene repertoires of two Plasmodium falciparum genomes, isolates DD2 and HB3. We have identified 25% of mis-annotated and ~30 missing rif and stevor genes. Using these data sets, as well as sequences from the well curated reference genome (isolate 3D7) and... | PMID: 21332983

Tumor-derived JAGGED1 promotes osteolytic bone metastasis of breast cancer by engaging notch signaling in bone cells.
Nilay Sethi, Xudong Dai, Christopher G Winter and Yibin Kang
Abstract
We report that the Notch ligand Jagged1 is a clinically and functionally important mediator of bone metastasis by activating the Notch pathway in bone cells. Jagged1 promotes tumor growth by stimulating IL-6 release from osteoblasts and directly activates osteoclast differentiation. Furthermore, Jag... | PMID: 21295524

Kindlin-2 regulates podocyte adhesion and fibronectin matrix deposition through interactions with phosphoinositides and integrins.
Hong Qu, Yizeng Tu, Xiaohua Shi, Hannu Larjava, Moin A Saleem, Sanford J Shattil, Koichi Fukuda, Jun Qin, Matthias Kretzler and Chuanyue Wu
Abstract
We report here that kindlin-2 interacts with multiple phosphoinositides, preferentially with phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. Although integrin-binding is essential for focal adhesion localization of kindlin-2, phosphoinositide-binding is not required for this process. Using biologically an... | PMID: 21325030

DSL-Notch signaling in the Drosophila brain in response to olfactory stimulation.
Toby Lieber, Simon Kidd and Gary Struhl
Abstract
We show that Notch is activated in select olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) in an odorant-specific fashion. This response requires olfactory receptor activity and the Notch ligand Delta. We present evidence that Notch activation depends on synaptic transmission by the ORNs in which the receptors are... | PMID: 21315258

Distinct effects of nuclear membrane localization on gene transcription silencing in Drosophila S2 cells and germ cells.
Lu Sui and Yanhong Yang
Abstract
We have established a tethering system, in which the Gal4 DNA binding domain (DBD) of the Flag:Gal4 DBD:Ote▵LEM fusion protein physically interacts with the Gal4 binding sites upstream of bamP-gfp to artificially recruit the reporter gene gfp to the nuclear membrane. Our data demonstrated that the... | PMID: 21356524

Combined omics analysis identifies transmembrane 4 L6 family member 1 as a surface protein marker specific to human mesenchymal stem cells.
Sohyun Bae, So Hee Shim, Chae Woon Park, Hye Kyung Son, Hyun Ju Lee, Ji Young Son, Choonju Jeon and Hoeon Kim
Abstract
We mapped 2 differential transcriptome data of MSCs compared, one to mononuclear cells and the other to fibroblasts, onto the membrane proteome data, the analysis of which led to an identification of transmembrane 4 L6 family member 1 (TM4SF1) as a surface protein marker candidate that could discrim... | PMID: 20486778

Characterisation of proteins extracted from the surface of Salmonella Typhimurium grown under SPI-2-inducing conditions by LC-ESI/MS/MS sequencing.
Aileen E Sherry, Neil F Inglis, Andy Stevenson, Douglas Fraser-Pitt, Paul Everest, David G E Smith and Mark Roberts
Abstract
We mapped the surface-attached proteome of S. Typhimurium SL1344 grown in vitro under SPI-2-inducing conditions and identified 108 proteins; using secretion signal prediction software, 43% of proteins identified contained a signal sequence. Of these proteins, 13 were known secreted effector proteins... | PMID: 21268266
