Streszczenie:

In the post-"omic" era the analysis of high-throughput data is regarded as one of the major challenges faced by researchers. One focus of this data analysis is uncovering biological network topologies and dynamics. It is believed that this kind of research will allow the development of new mathematical models of biological systems as well as aid in the improvement of already existing ones. The work that is presented in this dissertation addresses the problem of the analysis of highly complex data sets with the aim of developing a methodology that will enable the reconstruction of a biological

ATRX is a chromatin remodelling protein of the SNF2 family of chromatin remodelling proteins. Mutations in the ATRX gene have been shown to cause the ATR-X syndrome, an X-linked mental retardation disorder. ATRX is part of a chromatin-remodelling complex with Daxx that localizes to PML nuclear bodies or pericentromeric heterochromatin and is thought to regulate gene expression. In mice, Atrx inactivation results in embryonic lethality whereas conditional forebrain specific Atrx ablation showed impaired development and disorganization of the cortex.

The effective and efficient generation of both antibodies and antibody fragments to proteins of interest is vital, as antibodies and antibody fragments are required for an ever-increasing variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and analytical applications. The single chain variable fragment (scFv) is an antibody fragment consisting of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a light chain variable region (VL) joined together by a flexible polypeptide linker. In 2003, Feldhaus et al. developed a nonimmune human scFv surface display library, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae , containing 109 different scFvs.

Streszczenie:

<p> Progression through the mammalian cell cycle is a tightly regulated process that allows cells to replicate their genomes and divide properly. In growth factor-deprived conditions or in response to stress, the cell will exit the cell cycle either reversibly through quiescence, or permanently via senescence. Studies have shown that the SIN3 family of proteins plays a crucial role in these cell cycle exit processes. SIN3 proteins are highly conserved, and exist in mammals as two family members: SIN3A and SIN3B, which function as flexible scaffolding proteins to assemble co-repressor complexes

My PhD thesis is focused on two fundamental aspects of stem cell metabolism: (1) the role of Lin28 in programming stem cell metabolism, and (2) how metabolism in turn fuels and governs pluripotency.

Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting vasculature, is exaggerated in cancer. A ligand that may be involved in angiogenesis is ephrinB2, which upon binding to its cognate receptor on an adjacent cell, becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine residues and transduces an as yet uncharacterized signal inside the cell. To examine reverse signaling pathways mediated by ephrinB2, ephrinB2 mutants were generated in which five tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic tail were mutated to phenylalanine by site directed mutagenesis to effectively block the putative signal transduction pa

To improve efficiency, we successfully developed lentiviral-mediated RNAi against Mm

CKI-gamma2 is a serine/threonine protein kinase of unknown biological function. This study is the first to detect CKI-gamma2, as mRNA and protein, widely expressed in mouse tissues and mammalian cells. In addition, CKI-gamma2 as a protein of 75kDa was immunologically detected coprecipitating with Nck, an adaptor protein involved in receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling. CKI-gamma2 coprecipitated with Nck presents similar enzymatic properties as the recombinant and endogenous CKI-gamma2, demonstrating that the immunoreactive p75 CKI-gamma2 associated with Nck is indeed CKI-gamma2.

2',3'-Cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase is a protein highly expressed in oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system, and it is believed to be an important regulator of myelination. In this report, two aspects of CNP are investigated, each introduced in their own chapters.<br>First, a possible interaction of CNP with Fyn tyrosine kinase during myelination is investigated. Fyn is an important factor known to be active during the process of myelination, and CNP contains a number of possible tyrosine phosphorylation sites. Furthermore, their presence in an isolated domain of cell m

Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is amongst the earliest expressed myelin specific proteins. Its precise function remains unknown, though evidence supports a role for cell-cell adhesion. MAG may also act as a spacer molecule and could be involved in signal transduction. MAG is expressed as two isoforms, designated as L-MAG and S-MAG. Both share identical extracellular and transmembrane domains but differ in their cytoplasmic domains. L-MAG is expressed earlier during myelination than S-MAG. These features, as well as others, suggest that the isoforms have different functions. To confirm th

The retinoblastoma (RB) family of proteins plays a pivotal role in cell cycle regulation. Its members, p105/Rb, p107 and p130, interact with the E2F and DP family of transcription factors to regulate transcription of essential cell cycle and DNA synthesis genes. Several reports have mapped the regulation of E217 by RB family members to the "pocket" domain of these proteins. We demonstrate here that RBP2, a pocket-binding protein that encodes multiple DNA-binding and protein-protein interaction domains, is a transcriptional repressor. Overexpression of RBP2 inhibits E2F-dependent transcription

Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenases are expressed in mammalian cells and are required for the interconversian of one-carbon substituted folates. The trifunctional NADP-dependent dehydrogenase-cyclohydrolase-synthetase is localized in the cytoplasm whereas the bifunctional NAD-dependent dehydrogenase-cyclohydrolase is expressed in mitochondria suggesting they play different metabolic roles. Insect tissues also express both proteins but when immortalized into cell lines, the trifunctional enzyme is not detectable and the bifunctional enzyme is localized predominantly in the cytoplasm.

The factors that regulate dystrophin accumulation, and its association with other proteins in culture, are largely unknown. In this study I have examined the effects of chemical agents on dystrophin accumulation in culture, as well as determined whether dystrophin in culture has associations with glycoproteins in a similar fashion to that found in normal muscle tissue. My results show that the onset of detectable dystrophin accumulation occurs shortly after myoblast fusion has taken place, and increases rapidly thereafter as a percentage of total cell protein.

Human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a heavily glycosylated cell surface protein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). It is overexpressed in a wide variety of human cancers. CEA functions in vitro, at least, as an intercellular adhesion molecule. It has also been shown that ectopic expression of CEA can block myogenic differentiation of rat L6 and mouse C2C12 myoblasts. Both the intercellular adhesion function of CEA as well as the inhibition of myogenic differentiation are dependent on homophilic binding of its extracellular domains.

Casein Kinase I (CKI) is one of the first serine/threonine protein kinase activities to be isolated and characterized. In vertebrates, CKI represent a multigene family with seven isoforms, alpha, beta, delta, ε, gamma1-3 for which, very little is known with respect to their biological functions. This study reports that stable overexpression of CKI-gamma2 into fibroblasts impairs cell morphology and the organization of the actin cytoskeleton in a kinase-dependent mechanism and cell proliferation through a kinase-independent mechanism.

The Ras proteins (H-Ras, N-Ras and K-Ras4B) are monomeric GTP-binding proteins that play key roles in cell regulation. It has been proposed that correct plasma membrane localization of the Ras proteins requires 'two signals', the processed farnesylation sequence and an adjacent palmitoylation site(s) or polybasic sequence. First, to investigate potential proteinaceous binding partners for the K-Ras4B targeting sequence at the plasma membrane, an in vivo crosslinking analysis was carried out. Consistent with current suggestions that K-Ras4B interacts via electrostatic interactions with plasma m

Expression of the transferrin receptor (TfR) gene is developmentally regulated in mammalian cells (1), an iron-dependent post-transcription regulatory mechanism has been demonstrated in non-erythroid cell (2,3). In order to understand the molecular mechanism underlying the iron-dependent regulation of the TfR gene expression in the differentiating erythroid cell, a virus-transformed chicken erythroblast cell line, HD3 was employed in this study. We have investigated the possible effects of iron on the TfR gene expression that might involve regulatory mechanisms at the transcriptional and/or th
