  • CTCF physically links cohesin to chromatin. 18550811

    Cohesin is required to prevent premature dissociation of sister chromatids after DNA replication. Although its role in chromatid cohesion is well established, the functional significance of cohesin's association with interphase chromatin is not clear. Using a quantitative proteomics approach, we show that the STAG1 (Scc3/SA1) subunit of cohesin interacts with the CCTC-binding factor CTCF bound to the c-myc insulator element. Both allele-specific binding of CTCF and Scc3/SA1 at the imprinted IGF2/H19 gene locus and our analyses of human DM1 alleles containing base substitutions at CTCF-binding motifs indicate that cohesin recruitment to chromosomal sites depends on the presence of CTCF. A large-scale genomic survey using ChIP-Chip demonstrates that Scc3/SA1 binding strongly correlates with the CTCF-binding site distribution in chromosomal arms. However, some chromosomal sites interact exclusively with CTCF, whereas others interact with Scc3/SA1 only. Furthermore, immunofluorescence microscopy and ChIP-Chip experiments demonstrate that CTCF associates with both centromeres and chromosomal arms during metaphase. These results link cohesin to gene regulatory functions and suggest an essential role for CTCF during sister chromatid cohesion. These results have implications for the functional role of cohesin subunits in the pathogenesis of Cornelia de Lange syndrome and Roberts syndromes.

  • Marked dissociation between high noradrenaline versus low noradrenaline transporter levels in human nucleus accumbens. 17484728

    We recently identified a noradrenaline-rich caudomedial subdivision of the human nucleus accumbens (NACS), implying a special function for noradrenaline in this basal forebrain area involved in motivation and reward. To establish whether the NACS, as would be expected, contains similarly high levels of other noradrenergic markers, we measured dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) and noradrenaline transporter in the accumbens and, for comparison, in 23 other brain regions in autopsied human brains by immunoblotting. Although the caudomedial NACS had high DBH levels similar to those in other noradrenaline-rich areas, the noradrenaline transporter concentration was low (only 11% of that in hypothalamus). Within the accumbens, transporter concentration in the caudal portion was only slightly (by 30%) higher than that in the rostral subdivisions despite sharply increasing rostrocaudal gradients of noradrenaline (15-fold) and DBH. In contrast, the rostrocaudal gradient in the accumbens for the serotonin transporter and serotonin were similar (2-fold increase). The caudomedial NACS thus appears to represent the only instance in human brain having a striking mismatch in high levels of a monoamine neurotransmitter versus low levels of its uptake transporter. This suggests that noradrenaline signalling is much less spatially and temporally restricted in the caudomedial accumbens than in other noradrenaline-rich brain areas.

  • Ret-PCP2 colocalizes with protein kinase C in a subset of primate ON cone bipolar cells. 20127818

    Purkinje cell protein 2 (PCP2), a member of the family of guanine dissociation inhibitors and a strong interactor with the G-protein subunit G alpha(o), localizes to retinal ON bipolar cells. The retina-specific splice variant of PCP2, Ret-PCP2, accelerates the light response of rod bipolar cells by modulating the mGluR6 transduction cascade. All ON cone bipolar cells express mGluR6 and G alpha(o), but only a subset expresses Ret-PCP2. Here we test the hypothesis that Ret-PCP2 contributes to shaping the various temporal bandwidths of ON cone bipolar cells in monkey retina. We found that the retinal splice variants in monkey and mouse are similar and longer than the cerebellar variants. Ret-PCP2 is strongly expressed by diffuse cone bipolar type 4 cells (DB4; marked with anti-PKCalpha) and weakly expressed by midget bipolar dendrites (labeled by antibodies against G alpha(o), G gamma 13, or mGluR6). Ret-PCP2 is absent from diffuse cone bipolar type 6 (DB6; marked with anti-CD15) and blue cone bipolar cells (marked with anti-CCK precursor). Thus, cone bipolar cells that terminate in stratum 3 of the inner plexiform layer (DB4) express more Ret-PCP2 than those that terminate in strata 3 + 4 (midget bipolar cells), and these in turn express more than those that terminate in stratum 5 (DB6 and blue cone bipolar cells). This expression pattern approximates the arborization of ganglion cells (GC) with different temporal bandwidths: parasol GCs stratifying near stratum 3 are faster than midget GCs stratifying in strata 3 + 4, and these are probably faster than the sluggish GCs that arborize in stratum 5.

  • Dissociation of recognition and recency memory judgments after anterior thalamic nuclei lesions in rats. 23731076

    The anterior thalamic nuclei form part of a network for episodic memory in humans. The importance of these nuclei for recognition and recency judgments remains, however, unclear. Rats with anterior thalamic nuclei lesions and their controls were tested on object recognition, along with two types of recency judgment. The spontaneous discrimination of a novel object or a novel odor from a familiar counterpart (recognition memory) was not affected by anterior thalamic lesions when tested after retention delays of 1 and 60 min. To measure recency memory, rats were shown two familiar objects, one of which had been explored more recently. In one condition, rats were presented with two lists (List A, List B) of objects separated by a delay, thereby creating two distinct blocks of stimuli. After an additional delay, rats were presented with pairs of objects, one from List A and one from List B (between-block recency). No lesion-induced deficit was apparent for recency discriminations between objects from different lists, despite using three different levels of task difficulty. In contrast, rats with anterior thalamic lesions were significantly impaired when presented with a continuous list of objects and then tested on their ability to distinguish between those items early and late in the same list (within-block recency). The contrasting effects on recognition and recency support the notion that interlinked hippocampal-anterior thalamic interconnections support aspects of both spatial and nonspatial learning, although the role of the anterior thalamic nuclei may be restricted to a subclass of recency judgments (within-block).

  • Dissociation of embryonic kidney followed by re-aggregation as a method for chimeric analysis. 22639257

    This chapter presents three methods for re-constructing mouse foetal kidney tissue from simple suspensions of cells. These techniques are very useful for a number of purposes: (1) they allow the production of fine-grained chimaeras in which cell autonomy of mutations can be tested, (2) they provide an environment that allows the renal differentiation potential of stem cells to be assessed, and (3) they are an excellent system in which to study the mechanisms of self-organization. Each of the methods described here begins with disaggregation of embryonic mouse kidneys, followed by re-aggregation and culture; the main differences are in the culture methods, each of which has advantages for particular purposes.

  • Functional dissociation between proforms and mature forms of proteinase 3, azurocidin, and granzyme B in regulation of granulopoiesis. 12135665

    OBJECTIVE: We previously demonstrated that secreted proform(s) of the neutrophil serine protease PR3 (proteinase 3) can down-modulate the fraction of normal human colony-forming unit granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) in S-phase, whereas PR3 extracted from mature neutrophils lacks this ability. The objective of this study was to characterize the structural and functional dissociation between secreted proforms and granule-stored mature forms and to extend the investigation to other related hematopoietic serine proteases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Conditioned media containing secreted proteases from transfectant cell lines with stable expression of human PR3, neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G, azurocidin, and granzymes A, B, H, K, and M were tested for their ability to reduce the fraction of normal human CFU-GM in S phase. Furthermore, recombinant PR3, azurocidin, and granzyme B with defined N-terminal propeptides, and the respective mature forms without propeptide, were functionally characterized. RESULTS: In addition to PR3, secreted proforms of azurocidin and granzymes A, B, H, K, and M, but not cathepsin G or neutrophil elastase, have S-phase reducing activity. This activity is restricted to the dipeptide proforms, whereas mature forms without propeptide have no S-phase reducing activity. On the other hand, only the mature forms of PR3 and granzyme B could bind the serine protease inhibitor diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), or aprotinin in the case of azurocidin. We also demonstrate that granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-stimulated CD34+ cells and interleukin-2-stimulated lymphocytes secrete active proforms of PR3 and granzyme B, respectively. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate distinctive functional and conformational differences between proforms and mature forms of these hematopoietic serine proteases and suggest novel growth regulatory mechanisms in granulopoiesis.

  • Large-scale dissociation and sequential reassembly of pericentric heterochromatin in dedifferentiated Arabidopsis cells. 17376962

    Chromocenters in Arabidopsis thaliana are discrete nuclear domains of mainly pericentric heterochromatin. They are characterized by the presence of repetitive sequences, methylated DNA and dimethylated histone H3K9. Here we show that dedifferentiation of specialized mesophyll cells into undifferentiated protoplasts is accompanied by the disruption of chromocenter structures. The dramatic reduction of heterochromatin involves the decondensation of all major repeat regions, also including the centromeric 180 bp tandem repeats. Only the 45S rDNA repeat remained in a partly compact state in most cells. Remarkably, the epigenetic indicators for heterochromatin, DNA methylation and H3K9 dimethylation, did not change upon decondensation. Furthermore, the decondensation of pericentric heterochromatin did not result in transcriptional reactivation of silent genomic elements. The decondensation process was reversible upon prolonged culturing. Strikingly, recondensation of heterochromatin into chromocenters is a stepwise process. Compaction of the tandemly arranged 45S rDNA regions occurs first, followed by the centromeric 180 bp and the 5S rDNA repeats and finally the dispersed repeats, including transposons. The sequence of reassembly seems to be correlated to the size of the repeat domains. Our results indicate that different types of pericentromeric repeats form different types of heterochromatin, which subsequently merge to form a chromocenter.

  • Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of caveolin-1 induces its association with membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase. 15466865

    We have recently shown that stimulation of endothelial cells with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) induces dissociation of caveolin-1 from the VEGFR-2 receptor, followed by Src family kinase-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the protein (Labrecque, L., Royal, I., Surprenant, D. S., Patterson, C., Gingras, D., and Beliveau, R. (2003) Mol. Biol. Cell 14, 334-347). In this study, we provide evidence that the VEGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of caveolin-1 induces interaction of the protein with the membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP). This interaction requires the phosphorylation of caveolin-1 on tyrosine 14 by members of the Src family of protein kinases, such as Src and Fyn, because it is completely abolished by expression of a catalytically inactive Src mutant or by site-directed mutagenesis of tyrosine 14 of caveolin-1. Most interestingly, the association of MT1-MMP with phosphorylated caveolin-1 induced the recruitment of Src and a concomitant inhibition of the kinase activity of the enzyme, suggesting that this complex may be involved in the negative regulation of Src activity. The association of MT1-MMP with phosphorylated caveolin-1 occurs in caveolae membranes and involves the cytoplasmic domain of MT1-MMP because it was markedly reduced by mutation of Cys574 and Val582 residues of the cytoplasmic tail of the enzyme. Most interestingly, the reduction of the interaction between MT1-MMP and caveolin-1 by using these mutants also decreases MT1-MMP-dependent cell locomotion. Overall these results indicate that MT1-MMP associates with tyrosine-phosphorylated caveolin-1 and that this complex may play an important role in MT1-MMP regulation and function.
