    Notes: Cdc2 kinase triggers the entry of mammalian cells into mitosis, the only cell cycle phase in which transcription is globally repressed. We show here that Cdc2 kinase phosphorylates components of the RNA polymerase II transcription machinery including the RNA polymerase II carboxy-terminal repeat domain (CTD). To test specifically the effect of CTD phosphorylation by Cdc2 kinase, we used a yeast in vitro transcription extract that is dependent on exogenous RNA polymerase II that contains a CTD. Phosphorylation was carried out using immobilized Cdc2 so that the kinase could be removed from the phosphorylated polymerase. ATPγS and Cdc2 kinase were used to produce an RNA polymerase 110 that was not detectably dephosphorylated in the transcription extract. RNA polymerase 110 produced in this way was defective in promoter-dependent transcription, suggesting that phosphorylation of the CTD by Cdc2 kinase can mediate transcription repression during mitosis. In addition, we show that phosphorylation of pol II with the human TFIIH-associated kinase Cdk7 also decreases transcription activity despite a different pattern of CTD phosphorylation by this kinase. These results extend previous findings that RNA polymerase 110 is defective in preinitiation complex formation. Here we demonstrate that phosphorylation of the CTD by cyclin-dependent kinases with different phosphoryl acceptor specificities can inhibit transcription in a CTD-dependent transcription system. J.

    Notes: Three physiologically important disaturated lecithins have been analyzed quantitatively as the acetate derivatives using a solids inlet probe and ammonia chemical ionization. Concentration independent response factors have been determined over a tenfold range that brackets human plasma levels. The results obtained serve as an independent corroboration of gas chromatographic analyses.

    Ultrastructural study of tension and pressure zones in a rabbit flexor tendon (1980)

    Notes: The flexor digitorum profundus tendon of the rabbit hind limb is subject to tensional forces throughout most of its length but, within a localised area which is in contact with the calcaneum and talus, it is subjected to additional compressive forces. This pressure-bearing area, in marked contrast to the tensional areas, has a fibrocartilage-like organization and a high concentration of glycosaminoglycans (GAG).Ultrastructural features of the cells, collagen and matrix in the tension and pressure zones are also markedly different, with a full spectrum of transitional characteristics in the junctional region between the two zones. These findings support the concept that the cells in the various regions are sensitive and responsive to changes in physical load.In the tensional zone, elongated cells have extensive cytoplasmic flanges, which may contact flanges of neighbouring cells, and a scalloped cell surface that intimately conforms to the adjacent positively charged and tightly packed collagen fibrils of long periodicity (63 nm) and varying diameters. In the pressure zone, round and clustered fibrocartilage-like cells, characterized by dense arrays of 11-nm-diameter microfilaments and numerous lipid droplets, are surrounded by loosely packed collagen fibrils of short periodicity (53 nm) and predominantly small diameters, and an extensive matrix rich in GAG.It is suggested that these regional morphological variations in the extracellular components result from, and are indirectly the cause of, changes in the cellular synthetic activities which are known to occur in response to changes in the physical environment.

    Notes: Metabolism of 1,1,1,2,2-pentafluorohexane with liver microsomes from phenobarbital-treated rats gave only one metabolite, namely, the 5-hydroxy derivative. Under similar conditions 1,1-difluorocyclohexane was metabolized to give mainly the 3- and 4-hydroxy derivatives in the ratio 1:∼5.5 The structures of these metabolites were established by chemical ionization (CI) and/or electron impact (EI) mass spectrometry and confirmed by synthesis in the case of 1,1-difluorocyclohexan-4-ol. Oxidation of 1,1-difluorocyclohexane with lead tetrakis(trifluoroacetate) also gave, inter alia, the 3- and 4-hydroxy derivatives. In saturated hydrocarbons complete replacement of hydrogen by fluorine at one particular carbon will not only block microsomal hydroxylation thereat but will also inhibit hydroxylation at neighbouring hydrogen-bearing carbons, (α almost completely, β markedly, γ slightly).

    Cell cycle variation of Hsp70 levels in HeLa cells at 37°C and after a heat shock (1995)

    Notes: The expression of the 72 kD inducible heat shock protein (hsp72) has been reported to be cell cycle associated in unheated, synchronized HeLa cells. In this study, flow cytomerty was used to investigate hsp72 levels through the cell cycle in HeLa cells by dual labeling with propidium iodide and antibodies against hsp72. The entire cell cycle distribution of hsp72 could be measured in a single sample of asynchronously growing cells. For unheated cells, the level of hsp72 increased about 30% from G1 to S phase, with about a 65% increase in G2/M, probably due to cell size differences. Neither mitotic selection nor serum stimulation induced a higher level of hsp72 than in the control cells. Western blot analysis of hsp72 from Hoechst-stained cells sorted from G1, mid-S, or G2/M showed that G1 cells had the lowest level of hsp72, with about a 30% increase in S phase and a 60% increase in G2/M, in good agreement with the flow cytometry results. These data conflict with previous reporty by other laboratories which showed a 3-fold higher level of hsp72 in S phase than in G1 or G2. In contrast, heat shock (both acute and chronic) led to a non-uniform increase in hsp72 through the cell cycle. Most cells in mid S phase had high levels of hsp72, and a larger range in the levels of hsp72 were found in G1 and late S/G2/M phase cells. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Endothelin-I induces gene expression through stimulation of endothelin type a receptors in normal rat kidney cells (1995)

    Notes: RNA blots of total cellular RNA isolated from quiescent and endothelin (ET-1)-stimulated normal rat kidney (NRK) cells demonstrated that ET-1 induced the expression of c-jun, jun B, and c-fos mRNA in a time-dependent manner with maximal expression of mRNA by 1 hr after the addition of ET-1. Five hundred picomolal ET-1 was sufficient to induce maximal mRNA expression. These data agreed with saturation experiments which demonstrated that maximal binding of [125I]ET-1 was achieved at concentrations greater than 100 pM. The Kd and Bmax values for [125I]ET-1 binding to NRK membranes were 20.5 pM and 22.2 fmol/mg protein, respectively. Competition experiments for the binding of [125I]ET-1 to NRK membranes demonstrated that ET-1 was a more potent inhibitor (Ki = 0.047 nM) than ET-3 (Ki = 10.8 nM). No specific binding of [125I]ET-3 (40 or 500 pM) to NRK membranes could be observed. The expression of c-jun, jun B, and c-fos mRNA was inhibited by the endothelin type A receptor (ET)-selective antagonist, BQ-123. Thus, these data demonstrate that ET-1 mediates the expression of immediate response gene mRNA in NRK cells via the ETA receptor. ET-1 stimulation of NRK cells also upregulated EGF receptors, providing a possible mechanism for ET-1 complementation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) mitogenicity in NRK cells. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Regulation of protein traffic in polarized epithelial cells (1995)

    Notes: The plasma membrane of polarized epithelial cells is divided into apical and basolateral surfaces, with different compositions. Proteins can be sent directly from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to either surface, or can be sent first to one surface and then transcytosed to the other. The glycosyl phosphatidylinositol anchor is a signal for apical targeting. Signals in the cytoplasmic domain containing a β-turn determine basolateral targeting and retrieval, and are related to other sorting signals. Transcytosed proteins, such as the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (plgR), are endocytosed from the basolateral surface and then accumulate in a tubular compartment concentrated underneath the apical surface. This compartment, tentatively termed the apical recycling compartment, may be a central sorting station, as it apparently receives material from both surfaces and sorts them for delivery to the correct surface. Delivery to the apical surface from both the TGN and the apical recycling compartment appears to be regulated by protein kinases A and C, and endocytosis from the apical surface is also regulated by kinases. Transcytosis of the plgR is additionally regulated by phosphorylation of the plgR and by ligand binding to the plgR. Regulation of traffic in polarized epithelial cells plays a central role in cellular homeostasis, response to external signals and differentiation.
