    Notes: Abstract: A rapid and sensitive in situ hybridization technique is described for the detection of mRNA sequences in 6–8-μm cryostat sections. The method incorporates the use of α-thio-35S-labelled nucleoside triphosphates for the generation of high-specific-activity DNA probes and a high-stringency washing procedure that virtually eliminates background without unduly compromising histological integrity. Whereas signal resolution is less than that observed using 3H probes, 35S-labelled probes are well-suited for experiments where resolution at the cellular level is required. The method has been applied to a study of the developmental regulation of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) mRNA expression in developing mouse brain. GFAP-specific sequences are first detectable after the second postnatal day, and thereafter rise to a level that is maintained throughout development and into adulthood. The distribution of GFAP-encoding sequences broadly reflects the known distribution of astrocytes, but the levels of mRNA within these cells vary by a surprisingly large amount depending on their location. For example, in adult animals, the astrocytes of the glial limitans contain an abundance of GFAP-specific mRNA that is higher than corresponding levels in astrocytes in the cerebellar white matter, whereas these cells in turn contain considerably more GFAP-specific mRNA than astrocytes in the gray matter of the cerebrum. Unexpectedly, parallel RNA blot transfer experiments show the existence of some GFAP-encoding mRNA size heterogeneity that is restricted to the first postnatal week.

    Notes: We show that the expression of the gene encoding glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) gene is affected by at least three as-acting elements. A positive regulatory element that is located between nucleotides -1, 631 and -1, 479 can confer cell type-specific expression on a heterologous gene. A second regulatory element is located between nucleotides -97 and -80. The third is a negative regulatory element that is located within the first intron of the gene. Deletion of this element activates GFAP expression in HeLa cells, and affects promoter function in glioma cells.

    Notes: [Auszug] To investigate whether cytosolic chaperonin (c-cpn, the homologue of GroEL in the eukaryotic cytosol5'9"15) cycles its target proteins, we did a dilution experiment, reasoning that dilution should reduce the efficiency with which released non-native forms can be ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The Human Genome Project has greatly increased the pace of discovery of the causes of genetic disorders. In a recent example of this, eight research groups in six countries have combined to find the genetic lesion that causes a devastating autosomal recessive disease found mainly in people of ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Here we report that the microtubule-associated proteins MAP2 and tau share two separable functional domains. One is the microtubule-binding site which serves to nucleate microtubule assembly; the second is a short C-terminal α-helical sequence which can crosslink microtubules by means of a ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The folding of native tubulin involves at least seven different chaperone proteins: prefoldin, the cytosolic chaperonin CCT and five tubulin-specific chaperone proteins named cofactors A–E. The structure of the yeast homolog of cofactor A, Rbl2p, shows it to be a dimer with largely ...

    Notes: The functional subunit of microtubules is a heterodimer consisting of α- and β-tubulin. An understanding of tubulin dimerization has been hampered because it has not proved possible to purify native tubulin monomers. To study the process whereby tubulin dimers are formed, we made use of tubulins synthesized by in vitro transcription and translation. We present evidence that the in vitro synthesis of different mouse α-tubulin isotypes involves a multimolecular complex. The synthesis of mouse β-tubulin isotypes also involves the formation of multimolecular complexes, though different isotypes behave somewhat differently from one another. The properties of in vitro synthesized α- and β-tubulin multimolecular complexes strongly suggest that they are intermediates in the biosynthesis of tubulin monomers. Upon release, these monomers can exchange with pre-existing tubulin heterodimers. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
