13. Serine/threonine phosphatase 1 modulates the subnuclear distribution of pre-mRNA splicing factors.
HeLa cell nuclei were permeabilized and reconstituted with nuclear extract to identify soluble nuclear factors which play a role in the organization of pre-mRNA splicing factors in the mammalian cell nucleus. Permeabilized nuclei reconstituted with nuclear extract were active in transcription and DNA replication and nuclear speckles containing pre-mRNA splic

14. Complex Lipid Requirements for SNARE- and SNARE Chaperone-dependent Membrane Fusion*
Membrane fusion without lysis has been reconstituted with purified yeast vacuolar SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors), the SNARE chaperones Sec17p/Sec18p and the multifunctional HOPS complex, which includes a subunit of the SNARE-interactive Sec1-Munc18 family, and vacuolar lipids: phosphatidylcholine (PC), phospha

15. Assembly of functionally active Drosophila origin recognition complex from recombinant proteins
In eukaryotes the sites for the initiation of chromosomal DNA replication are believed to be determined in part by the binding of a heteromeric origin recognition complex (ORC) to DNA. We have cloned the genes encoding the subunits of the Drosophila ORC. Each of the genes is unique and can be mapped to discrete chromosomal locations implying that the pattern

16. Functional Expression in Escherichia coli and Membrane Topology of Porin HopE, a Member of a Large Family of Conserved Proteins in Helicobacter pylori
HopE is one of the smallest members of a family of 31 outer membrane proteins in Helicobacter pylori and has been shown to function as a porin. In this study it was cloned into Escherichia coli where it was expressed in the outer membrane, as confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence using HopE-specific antibodies. HopE purified from E. coli reconstituted cha

17. Reconstituted TOM Core Complex and Tim9/Tim10 Complex of Mitochondria Are Sufficient for Translocation of the ADP/ATP Carrier across Membranes
Precursor proteins of the solute carrier family and of channel forming Tim components are imported into mitochondria in two main steps. First, they are translocated through the TOM complex in the outer membrane, a process assisted by the Tim9/Tim10 complex. They are passed on to the TIM22 complex, which facilitates their insertion into the inner membrane. In

18. Highly selective water channel activity measured by voltage clamp: Analysis of planar lipid bilayers reconstituted with purified AqpZ
Aquaporins are membrane channels selectively permeated by water or water plus glycerol. Conflicting reports have described ion conductance associated with some water channels, raising the question of whether ion conductance is a general property of the aquaporin family. To clarify this question, a defined system was developed to simultaneously measure w

19. Mobile nucleosomes--a general behavior.
We have previously reported the mobility of positioned nucleosomes on sea urchin 5S rDNA. In this study we demonstrate the temperature dependence and the range of this mobility on 5S rDNA constructs. We find that this dynamic behavior also applies to bulk mononucleosomes and nucleosomes reconstituted onto sequences of the Alu family of ubiquitous repeats. We

20. NEDD8 recruits E2-ubiquitin to SCF E3 ligase
NEDD8/Rub1 is a ubiquitin (Ub)-like post-translational modifier that is covalently linked to cullin (Cul)-family proteins in a manner analogous to ubiquitylation. NEDD8 is known to enhance the ubiquitylating activity of the SCF complex (composed of Skp1, Cul-1, ROC1 and F-box protein), but the mechanistic role is largely unknown. Using an in vitro reconstitu

21. The function of Xenopus Bloom's syndrome protein homolog (xBLM) in DNA replication
The Bloom's syndrome gene (BLM) plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of genomic stability in somatic cells. It encodes a DNA helicase (BLM) of the RecQ family, but the exact function of BLM remains elusive. To study this question, we have cloned the BLM homolog of the frog Xenopus laevis (xBLM) and have raised antibodies to it. Immunodepletion of xBLM fro

22. Human neutrophil immunodeficiency syndrome is associated with an inhibitory Rac2 mutation
A 5-week-old male infant presented with severe bacterial infections and poor wound healing, suggesting a neutrophil defect. Neutrophils from this patient exhibited decreased chemotaxis, polarization, azurophilic granule secretion, and superoxide anion (O2−) production but had normal expression and up-regulation of CD11b. Rac2, which constitutes >96% of the

23. Chilling Tolerance in Arabidopsis Involves ALA1, a Member of a New Family of Putative Aminophospholipid Translocases
The lipid composition of membranes is a key determinant for cold tolerance, and enzymes that modify membrane structure seem to be important for low-temperature acclimation. We have characterized ALA1 (for aminophospholipid ATPase1), a novel P-type ATPase in Arabidopsis that belongs to the gene family ALA1 to ALA11. The deduced amino acid sequence of ALA1 is

24. A Novel Member of Solute Carrier Family 25 (SLC25A42) Is a Transporter of Coenzyme A and Adenosine 3′,5′-Diphosphate in Human Mitochondria*
Mitochondrial carriers are a family of proteins that transport metabolites, nucleotides, and cofactors across the inner mitochondrial membrane thereby connecting cytosolic and matrix functions. The essential cofactor coenzyme A (CoA) is synthesized outside the mitochondrial matrix and therefore must be transported into mitochondria where it is required for a
