Plant SAM-Domain Proteins Start to Reveal Their Roles.

Proteins often act in complexes assembled via protein-protein interaction domains. The sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain is one of the most prominent interaction domains in animals and is present in proteins of diverse functions. This domain allows head-to-tail closed oligomerisation or polymer formation resulting in homo- and/or heterocomplexes that have been shown to be important for proper protein localisation and function. In plants this domain is also present but has been poorly studied except for recent studies on the LEAFY floral regulator and the tRNA import component (TRIC)1/2 proteins. Here we catalogue SAM domain-containing proteins from arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), compare plant and other eukaryotic SAM domains, and perform homology modelling to probe plant SAM domain interaction capabilities.

Molecular mechanism of cytokinin-activated cell division in .

Authors:
Weibing Yang Sandra Cortijo Niklas Korsbo Pawel Roszak Katharina Schiessl Aram Gurzadyan Raymond Wightman Henrik Jönsson Elliot Meyerowitz

Science 2021 Feb 25. Epub 2021 Feb 25.

Mitogens trigger cell division in animals. In plants, cytokinins, a group of phytohormones derived from adenine, stimulate cell proliferation. Cytokinin signaling is initiated by membrane-associated histidine kinase receptors and transduced through a phosphorelay system. Read More

The Role of Neuroinflammation in Glaucoma: An Update on Molecular Mechanisms and New Therapeutic Options.

Authors:
Teresa Rolle Antonio Ponzetto Lorenza Malinverni

Front Neurol 2020 4;11:612422. Epub 2021 Feb 4.

Eye Clinic, Department of Surgical Sciences, University of Torino, Torino, Italy.

Glaucoma is a multifactorial optic neuropathy characterized by the continuous loss of retinal ganglion cells, leading to progressive and irreversible visual impairment. In this minireview, we report the results of the most recent experimental studies concerning cells, molecular mechanisms, genes, and microbiome involved in neuroinflammation processes correlated to glaucoma neurodegeneration. The identification of cellular mechanisms and molecular pathways related to retinal ganglion cell death is the first step toward the discovery of new therapeutic strategies. Read More

Expression of sterile-α and armadillo motif in rheumatoid arthritis monocytes correlates with TLR2 induced IL-1β and disease activity.

Brighton and Sussex Medical School, University of Sussex, Brighton, BN1 9PS, U.K.

Objective: Cartilage and bone damage in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are associated with elevated IL-1β. The effects of IL-1β can be reduced by biological therapies that target IL-1β or TNFα. However, the mechanisms responsible for increased IL-1β and the effect of anti-TNFα have not been fully elucidated. Read More

Functional analysis of Samd11, a retinal photoreceptor PRC1 component, in establishing rod photoreceptor identity.

Authors:
Shun Kubo Haruka Yamamoto Naoko Kajimura Yoshihiro Omori Yamato Maeda Taro Chaya Takahisa Furukawa

Sci Rep 2021 Feb 18;11(1):4180. Epub 2021 Feb 18.

Laboratory for Molecular and Developmental Biology, Institute for Protein Research, Osaka University, 3-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka, 565-0871, Japan.

Establishing correct neuronal cell identity is essential to build intricate neural tissue architecture and acquire precise neural function during vertebrate development. While it is known that transcription factors play important roles in retinal cell differentiation, the contribution of epigenetic factors to establishing cell identity during retinal development remains unclear. We previously reported that Samd7, a rod photoreceptor cell-specific sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain protein, functions as a Polycomb repressive complex 1 component (PRC1) that is essential for establishing rod identity.

Revertant somatic mosaicism as a cause of cancer.

Authors:
Toshiya Inaba Akiko Nagamachi

Cancer Sci 2021 Feb 14. Epub 2021 Feb 14.

Department of Molecular Oncology and Leukemia Program Project, Research Institute for Radiation Biology and Medicine, Hiroshima University.

Revertant (somatic) mosaicism is a spontaneous correction of a causative mutation in patients with congenital diseases. A relatively frequent event, revertant mosaicism may bring favorable outcomes that ameliorate disorders, and is therefore called "natural gene therapy". However, it has been revealed recently that "overcorrection" of inherited bone marrow failure (IBMF) in patients with sterile alpha motif domain containing 9 (SAMD9)/9L syndromes by revertant mosaicism induces myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with monosomy 7 that occasionally proceeds to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
