[Abstract]  

Gene expression within the mitochondria of African trypanosomes and other protozoan organisms relies on a nucleotide-specific RNA-editing reaction. In the process exclusively uridine (U)-nucleotides are site-specifically inserted into and deleted from sequence-deficient primary transcripts to convert them into translatable mRNAs. The reaction is catalyzed by a 0.8 MDa multiprotein complex termed the editosome. Here we describe an improved in vitro test to quantitatively explore the catalytic activity of the editosome. The assay uses synthetic, fluorophore-derivatized oligoribonucleotides as editing substrates, which enable the automated electrophoretic separation of the reaction products by capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection systems.

[摘要]  [摘要]非洲锥虫和其他原生动物生物线粒体内的基因表达依赖于核苷酸特异性的RNA编辑反应。在该过程中,仅将尿苷(U)-核苷酸位点特异性插入序列不足的初级转录物中,并从中缺失,以将其转化为可翻译的mRNA。该反应由0.8 MDa的多蛋白复合物催化,该复合物被称为编辑体。在这里我们描述了一种改进的体外试验,以定量探索Editosome的催化活性。该测定使用合成的,荧光团衍生的寡核糖核苷酸 作为编辑底物,可通过耦合到激光诱导荧光(LIF)检测系统的毛细管电泳(CE)自动分离反应产物。该测定法功能强大,只需要纳克级的材料,并且通过使用多毛细管CE / LIF仪器,可以高度平行的方式进行测定。进一步的改进包括使用硫代磷酸酯修饰的,因此具有RNase耐性的底物RNA,以及用于同时监测U插入和U缺失反应的多重型荧光团标记策略。该测定方法对于研究酶体的机理和酶学是有用的。ħ H但是,它也可以在高通量执行以筛选RNA编辑特异性抑制剂。

[Abstract]  

ATP13A2/PARK9 is a late endo-/lysosomal P5B transport ATPase that is associated with several neurodegenerative disorders. We recently characterized ATP13A2 as a lysosomal polyamine exporter, which sheds light on the molecular identity of the unknown mammalian polyamine transport system. Here, we describe step by step a protocol to measure radiolabeled polyamine transport in reconstituted vesicles from yeast cells overexpressing human ATP13A2. This protocol was developed as part of our recent publication (van Veen et al., 2020) and will be useful for characterizing the transport function of other putative polyamine transporters, such as isoforms of the P5B transport ATPases.

[摘要]  [摘要] ATP13A2 / PARK9是一种晚期内/溶酶体P5B转运ATPase,与多种神经退行性疾病有关。我们最近将ATP13A2表征为溶酶体多胺出口者,这为未知的哺乳动物多胺转运系统的分子身份提供了线索。在这里,我们逐步描述了从过量表达人ATP13A2的酵母细胞中测量重组囊泡中放射性标记的多胺转运的方案。该方案是我们最新出版物的一部分(van Veen等,2020),将有助于表征其他假定的多胺转运蛋白的转运功能,例如P5B转运ATPase的同工型。


[背景] ATP13A2 / PARK9编码一种普遍表达的晚期内-/溶酶体膜蛋白,与一系列神经退行性疾病有关,例如早发性帕金森氏病(Di Fonzo等,2007 ;Lin等,2008)和Kufor -Rakeb综合征(伴痴呆的早期帕金森病)(Ramirez等,2006 ;Park等,2011)。ATP13A2属于P型转运ATPase ,是一类活性转运蛋白,由于ATP水解而暂时形成磷酸中间产物(Kuhlbrandt ,2004年)。ATP13A2是P5亚家族的成员,该家族已在20多年前通过基因组测序鉴定出来(Axelsen和Palmgren ...

[Abstract]  Ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs) are complexes consisting of mRNAs and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) which control mRNA transcription localization, turnover, and translation. Some mRNAs within the mRNPs have been shown to undergo degradation or storage. Those transcripts can lack general mRNA elements, like the poly(A) tail or 5’ cap structure, which prevent their identification through the application of widely-used approaches like oligo(dT) purification. Here, we describe a modified cross-linking affinity purification protocol (cCLAP) based on existing cross-linking and immunoprecipitation (CLIP) methods to isolate mRNAs which could be deadenylated, decapped and/or partially degraded in mRNPs, opening the possibility to detect different types of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Once isolated, ... [摘要]  核糖核蛋白颗粒(mRNP)是由mRNA和RNA结合蛋白(RBP)组成的复合物,其控制mRNA转录定位,转换和翻译。已显示mRNP内的一些mRNA经历降解或储存。那些转录物可能缺乏一般的mRNA元件,如poly(A)尾或5'帽结构,这通过应用广泛使用的方法如oligo(dT)纯化来阻止它们的鉴定。在这里,我们描述了基于现有的交联和免疫沉淀(CLIP)方法的修饰的交联亲和纯化方案(cCLAP),以分离mRNP中可被去腺苷酸化,去除和/或部分降解的mRNA,从而开启了检测不同的可能性。非编码RNA(ncRNA)的类型。分离后,将RNA进行衔接子连接,然后进行下一代测序(NGS)。由于快速有效的交联和淬灭步骤,该方案也适用于瞬时诱导的mRNP颗粒。实例包括由外在应激物触发的处理体(PB)或应力颗粒(SG)。其重现性和广泛应用使该方案成为研究特定RNP的RNA组成的有用且有力的工具。
【背景】mRNP内转录物的表征对于理解细胞转录和转录后过程至关重要。通过交联和免疫沉淀,然后通过RNA-Seq从mRNP颗粒中分离RNA已经成为鉴定mRNA靶标的常用方法(Tagwerker et al。,2006; Hafner et al。,2010; Kishore et al。,2011)。 ...
