Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cellular signal transduction mechanisms are regulated at multiple different stages during an organism's life cycle as well as life span. Environmental stress and starvation responses are extremely well coordinated by cell surface receptors and internal scaffolding molecules that are routing the signal to the effector proteins such as transcription factors. It is through these transcription factors that the cell will then regulate gene expression. With the help of this study, my co-authors and me have tried to elucidate a signal transduction network, which explains various facets of cellular signaling in the model filamentous fungus - Neurospora crassa. The first chapter has elucidated the role of serine/threonine and tyrosine phosphatases in growth and development in Neurospora. In addition, the chapter also shows that deletion of certain phosphatases lead to sensitivities to chemicals inducing osmotic stress, oxidative stress, cytoskeletal defects or ROS accumulation. Nine phosphatase mutants are also listed to have elevated levels of the active phosphorylated form of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (OS-2 in Neurospora) which is a critical regulator for counteraction to osmo-stress as well as an important regulator of female sexual development. Two other interesting genes - NCU04600 (pph-8) and NCU08380 (csp-6) are also described in this chapter for their unique phenotypes. The second chapter deals with the role of the important scaffolding protein and RACK1 homolog - CPC-2 in regulation of amino acid starvation mechanisms in Neurospora known as cross pathway control. CPC-2 is found to regulate the bZIP transcription factor - CPC-1 via modulation of post-translational modifications on CPC-1 during amino acid starvation. This transcription factor is in turn, integral towards de-repression of amino acid biosynthetic genes under amino acid starvation conditions. This chapter provides mechanistic details on how CPC-2 is able to regulate CPC-1 protein and thereby affect cross pathway control. In chapter III, the focus is shifted towards translational regulation via heterotrimeric G proteins and the guanine-exchange factor RIC-8 to build up a novel finding revealing that G proteins and RIC-8 are an integral part of the ribosome. Elevated phospho-eIF2[Alpha] levels in the G protein and ric-8 mutants suggest that global translation is greatly reduced in these strains. Poly-RNA-seq analyses of gna-1, gnb-1 and ric-8 mutants reveal certain ribosomal proteins as well as elongation factors and two serine/threonine kinases - stk-18 and stk-43 are greatly affected in polysomal co-migration by these gene deletions. In addition, deletion of ric-8 leads to loss of PKC protein from the polysomes, which suggests critical translational control of PKC via RIC-8. This thesis has thus aimed to expand on current knowledge on these abovementioned topics and laid the groundwork for future advances in understanding these cellular signaling mechanisms in Neurospora crassa.

Download or read book Translational Control of Gene Expression written by Nahum Sonenberg and published by CSHL Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 1034 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1996 publication of Translational Control, there has been fresh interest in protein synthesis and recognition of the key role of translation control mechanisms in regulating gene expression. This new monograph updates and expands the scope of the earlier book but it also takes a fresh look at the field. In a new format, the first eight chapters provide broad overviews, while each of the additional twenty-eight has a focus on a research topic of more specific interest. The result is a thoroughly up-to-date account of initiation, elongation, and termination of translation, control mechanisms in development in response to extracellular stimuli, and the effects on the translation machinery of virus infection and disease. This book is essential reading for students entering the field and an invaluable resource for investigators of gene expression and its control.

Download or read book Non Conventional Yeasts in Genetics Biochemistry and Biotechnology written by Klaus Wolf and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-03-04 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most information on yeasts derives from experiments with the conventional yeasts Saccaromyces cerevisiae and Schizossaccharomyces pombe, the complete nuclear and mitochondrial genome of which has also been sequenced. For all other non-conventional yeasts, investigations are in progress and the rapid development of molecular techniques has allowed an insight also into a variety of non-conventional yeasts. In this bench manual, over 70 practical protocols using 15 different non-conventional yeast species and in addition several protocols of general use are described in detail. All of these experiments on the genetics, biochemistry and biotechnology of yeasts have been contributed by renowned laboratories and have been reproduced many times. The reliable protocols are thus ideally suited also for undergraduate and graduate practical courses.

This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixth International Symposium on Genetics and Molecular Biology of Plant Nutriti9n was held in Elsinore, Denmark from August 17-21, 1998 and organised by th RiS0 National Laboratory in the year of its 40 anniversary. The 98 participants represented 23 countries and 80 scientific contributions with 43 oral and 37 poster presentations. The symposium addressed the molecular mechanisms, physiology and genetic regulation of plant nutrition. The Symposium brought together scientists from a range of different disciplines to exchange information and ideas on the molecular biology of mineral nutrition of plants. The symposium emphasised: • Bridging the gab between molecular biology, applied genetics, plant nutrition and plant breeding. • The development of methodologies to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of nutrition of plants • Quality of plant products. With sessions on: Nitrogen; Phosphorous; Micronutrients; Symbiosis; Membranes; Stress; Heavy Metals and Plant Breeding. In comparison with the previous conferences in this series more emphasis was placed on use of molecular techniques to clarify physiological mechanisms and processes, gene expression and regulation, as well as genetic marker assisted analysis. Significant of molecular genetic markers and other progress was reported in exploitation biotechnologies in breeding programmes.
Download or read book The Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetases written by Michael Ibba and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By virtue of their role as catalysts of the aminoacylation reaction, the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases ensure that the first step of translation is performed quickly and accurately. In this volume of 36 separate chapters, the many facets of this ancient and ubiquitous family are reviewed, including their surprising structural diversity, enzymology, tRNA interaction properties, and curious alternative functions. These chapters illustrate the degree to which the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases employ a variety of mechanisms to carry out both the standard functions related to the synthesis of aminoacylated tRNA for protein synthesis, as well as the surprising functions associated with amino acid biosynthesis, cytokine function, and even the processivity of DNA replication. Other chapters explore the regulation of their synthesis, their role in disease, and their prospects as targets for antibacterial therapeutics. This monograph will be a valuable resource for all scientists interested in the fundamentals of protein synthesis from both a basic research and clinical perspective, as well as the relation of translational components to the evolution of the genetic code.
