Analysis of a 26 kb region on the left arm of yeast chromosome XV.

In the framework of the EC programme for sequencing yeast chromosome XV, we have determined the nucleotide sequence of a 26 kb region. Subsequent analysis revealed 13 non-overlapping open reading frames, three of which correspond to known yeast genes. A pair of tRNA genes associated with remnant Ty elements were localized in this region. From structural parameters and/or similarity searches with entries in the current data libraries, a preliminary functional assessment of several of the putative novel gene products can be made. The gene density in this region amounts to one gene in 2 kb. Protein coding regions occupy 61% of the total DNA sequence. Within the intergenic regions, potential regulatory elements can be predicted. The data obtained here may serve as a basis for a more detailed biochemical analysis of the novel genes. The complete nucleotide sequence of the 26 kb segment as depicted in Figure 1 has been deposited at the EBI data library under Accession Number X91067.

Cloning and expression of secretagogin, a novel neuroendocrine- and pancreatic islet of Langerhans-specific Ca2+-binding protein.

We have cloned a novel pancreatic beta cell and neuroendocrine cell-specific calcium-binding protein termed secretagogin. The cDNA obtained by immunoscreening a human pancreatic cDNA library using the recently described murine monoclonal antibody D24 contains an open reading frame of 828 base pairs. This codes for a cytoplasmic protein with six putative EF finger hand calcium-binding motifs. The gene could be localized to chromosome 6 by alignment with GenBank genomic sequence data. Northern blot analysis demonstrated abundant expression of this protein in the pancreas and to a lesser extent in the thyroid, adrenal medulla, and cortex. In addition it was expressed in scant quantity in the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small intestine, and colon). Thyroid tissue expression of secretagogin was restricted to C-cells. Using a sandwich capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with a detection limit of 6.5 pg/ml, considerable amounts of constitutively secreted protein could be measured in tissue culture supernatants of stably transfected RIN-5F and dog insulinoma (INS-H1) cell clones; however, in stably transfected Jurkat cells, the protein was only secreted upon CD3 stimulation. Functional analysis of transfected cell lines expressing secretagogin revealed an influence on calcium flux and cell proliferation. In RIN-5F cells, the antiproliferative effect is possibly due to secretagogin-triggered down-regulation of substance P transcription.

Nucleotide sequence of tobamovirus Ob which can spread systemically in N gene tobacco.

The genomic RNA sequence of tobamovirus Ob (Ob), which can spread systemically in tobacco carrying the N gene, was determined. It consists of 6507 nucleotides and contains four open reading frames, exactly corresponding to the genomic organization of tobamoviruses known so far, i.e. encoding the 130K, 180K, 30K and coat proteins. There were no nucleotide overlaps between any open reading frames. The Ob nucleic acid sequence, predicted protein sequences and gene organization were compared with those of other tobamoviruses reported previously. This virus was originally reported as a tomato mosaic virus; however, the nucleotide sequence data given here refute this classification. The determinants that allow tobamovirus Ob to overcome the N gene, a feature peculiar to this virus, were not identified apart from sequence data. This virus should be regarded as a new tobamovirus. The determinants interacting with the tentative N gene product have not yet been analysed.

Commissioning, clinical implementation and quality assurance of Siemen's Virtual Wedge.

This report presents the results of commissioning, clinical implementation and quality assurance of Siemens Virtual Wedge. Our measurements show that: (1) wedge factors are within 2% of unity, (2) percentage depth doses are within 1% of open beam data, and (3) wedged beam profiles can be modeled similarly to a physical wedge and follow a well defined equation to facilitate modeling of an arbitrary wedge angle. The gantry angle dependence of wedge profiles is similar to open beam profiles. The output of wedged fields is linear with delivered monitor units within 1%. Quality assurance results indicate the wedge profiles are very stable over time. Day to day variations of two points measured along the wedge gradient direction are within 1.5%.

Novel plant Ca(2+)-binding protein expressed in response to abscisic acid and osmotic stress.

A cDNA corresponding to an mRNA which accumulates in germinating rice seeds in response to the phytohormone abscisic acid was isolated by differential hybridization. Northern blotting indicated that the mRNA also accumulates in vegetative tissues in response to treatment with abscisic acid and to osmotic stress. Sequencing identified a major open reading frame encoding a novel protein of 27.4 kDa. The identity of the open reading frame was confirmed by comparing the translation products of cellular, hybrid-selected, and in vitro transcribed RNAs and by immunoprecipitation. Western blotting of cellular extracts indicated that the protein is associated with microsomal or membrane fractions. Data base searches indicated that it contains a conserved Ca(2+)-binding, EF-hand motif and that related proteins are similarly expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana. A fusion protein purified from Escherichia coli containing the putative EF-hand region was shown to bind Ca2+ in blot binding assays. These data identify a novel gene family encoding proteins involved in the response of plants to abscisic acid and osmotic stress.

Augmentation strategies in patients with refractory depression.

In the evaluation of treatment-resistant or treatment-refractory depression (TRD), true resistance to antidepressant therapy must be distinguished from inadequate dose, duration, or compliance with past antidepressant therapy. Reassessment of the diagnosis may reveal psychiatric comorbidity, the presence of depressive subtypes, or the possibility of a medical etiology. Management of TRD should consider patient-specific factors; drug therapy may be directed by depressive subtype or the presence of psychiatric comorbidity. Increasing the dose or duration of current antidepressant therapy is appropriate for patients who have received inadequate therapy in the past. Augmentation of tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) therapy with thyroid hormone (T3) or lithium has been shown to be effective in open and controlled trials. Efficacy of other strategies such as higher-dose antidepressant treatment, venlafaxine therapy, combined antidepressant therapy, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), or augmentation with pindolol or buspirone has been less well established, but emerging data from open studies and case reports are encouraging.

DNA sequencing of a 36.2 kb fragment located between the FAS1 and LAP loci of chromosome XI of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

We have completely sequenced on both strands a continuous DNA segment of 36.2 kb located on the left arm of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome XI. Sequence analysis reveals the presence of 20 open reading frames (ORFs) at least 100 amino acids long. Five of these ORFs correspond to known genes; five others show homology with known proteins; the ten remaining ORFs identified show no detectable homology with other protein sequences contained in data banks and may represent new biological functions.

Sequences found on staphylococcal beta-lactamase plasmids integrated into the chromosome of Enterococcus faecalis CH116.

We have previously reported the presence of the staphylococcal beta-lactamase gene in chromosomes of Enterococcus faecalis strains CH19 and CH116. CH116 also harbors a 26-kb mobile element, designated Tn5384, which confers resistance to erythromycin and gentamicin. Sequence analysis of the rightmost 9 kb of Tn5384 indicates that this element lies immediately upstream of the beta-lactamase determinant in E. faecalis CH116. This 9-kb region consists of sequences highly homologous to those previously described in staphylococcal beta-lactamase plasmids, including a beta-lactamase transposon indistinguishable from Tn552, an open reading frame encoding a deduced amino acid sequence 94% identical to a previously described potential staphylococcal invertase, an intact copy of staphylococcal insertion-like element IS257, and the major portion of the staphylococcal organomercurial lyase (merB) gene. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that several of the resistance genes encoded within the large transferable region of the CH116 chromosome were originally components of a staphylococcal beta-lactamase plasmid.

Sequence of a 28.6 kb region of yeast chromosome XI includes the FBA1 and TOA2 genes, an open reading frame (ORF) similar to a translationally controlled tumour protein, one ORF containing motifs also found in plant storage proteins and 13 ORFs with weak or no homology to known proteins.

The complete DNA sequence of cosmid clone pUKG148 comprising 28,600 base pairs was determined from an ordered set of subclones. The sequence contains 22 open reading frames longer than 100 amino acids of which five are entirely covered by other, longer reading frames. YKL054 exhibits 25% homology at the amino acid level to a number of plant storage proteins of the glutenin type, YKL056 is 40% homologous to a translationally controlled mammalian tumour protein, YKL058 (TOA2) is identical to the small subunit of transcription factor TFIIA from yeast and YKL060 is identical to the FBA1 gene also from yeast, already sequenced but not mapped to chromosome XI. The remaining 13 open reading frames show weak or no homology to known genes.

HINN: Hierarchical Input Neural Network identifies multi-omics biomarker for cognitive decline.

Understanding complex diseases requires models that can integrate diverse layers of biological data while yielding insights that are biologically interpretable. Although multi-omics integration with machine learning (ML) has advanced disease prediction and biomarker discovery, most existing approaches overlook the hierarchical and regulatory relationships that connect these molecular layers. Here, we present the Hierarchical Input Neural Network (HINN), a deep learning framework that incorporates known cross-omics relationships directly into its architecture, capturing the flow of information from genomics to epigenomics, transcriptomics, and downstream biological processes. By embedding these relationships, HINN improves both predictive performance and biological interpretability. We applied HINN to blood-derived multi-omics data from individuals with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment to predict cognitive scores from standardized assessments. HINN outperformed both baseline and state-of-the-art models and pinpointed multi-omics biomarkers-including SNPs and promoter-region CpG sites in ATP6V1C1 and RCHY1 -that were significantly correlated with plasma p-Tau181 levels. These features map to biologically relevant processes with potential implications for cognitive decline. Our findings demonstrate how combining deep learning with biological knowledge can uncover interpretable, blood-based biomarkers for cognitive decline due to complex diseases such as Alzheimer's. All code and data are openly available at https://github.com/bozdaglab/HINN.

Identification and sequencing of the Choristoneura biennis entomopoxvirus DNA polymerase gene.

A degenerate oligonucleotide probe corresponding to a highly conserved amino acid sequence in several DNA polymerases was used to locate the DNA polymerase gene in the Choristoneura biennis entomopoxvirus. Southern blot analysis of the entomopoxvirus genome using the degenerate oligonucleotide probe showed specific interaction between the probe and an eight kilobasepair EcoRI fragment from the entomopoxvirus genome. Sequencing this EcoRI fragment revealed an open reading frame 2892 nucleotides in length, capable of encoding a protein about 115 kilodaltons. Homology search of this open reading frame against other proteins indicated a high degree of homology in four distinct regions with DNA polymerases from other organisms. The highest degree of homology (24.9% at the amino acid level) was found between the vaccinia DNA polymerase gene and the entomopoxvirus open reading frame.

Molecular characterization of two large DNA plasmids in the red alga Porphyra pulchra.

Five plasmids occur in the red alga Porphyra pulchra. The two larger ones (6859 and 6427 bp) differ in their sequences. The three smaller (1896, 2100, and 2102 bp) have sequences that are similar to one another. These plasmids are circular, double-stranded DNA, present in high copy number, and maintained in this organism through successive generations of laboratory culture. Sequence analysis of the two larger plasmids reveals few prominent structural features, but several potential open reading frames (ORFs) occur, some of which are transcriptionally active. Sequence database comparisons find significant sequence similarity between ORF3 or PP6427 and a 411 amino-acid polypeptide previously characterized in plasmid GC2 from the red alga Gracilaria chilensis. These data support the presence of at least one conserved plasmid coding region in distant orders of red algae. Southern blots of total genomic DNA from other red algae probed with plasmids from P. pulchra demonstrate no hybridization to previously studied Gracilariales species but notable hybridization to several species within the genus Porphyra, although the sizes of detected bands vary.

Cloning and molecular genetic analysis of Drosophila melanogaster interband DNA.

Interband DNA of Drosophila melanogaster polytene chromosomes was studied using a novel approach based on the electron microscopic (EM) analysis of chromosome regions carrying DNA fragments of known molecular genetic composition, inserted by P element-mediated transformation. Insertion of such fragments predominantly into interbands makes it possible to clone interband DNA by constructing genomic libraries from transformed strains and probing them with the insert DNA. The transformed strain P[H-sp70:Adh](61C) has insertion in the 61C7-8 interband on the left arm of chromosome 3. This DNA consists of part of the hsp70 gene promoter fused to the coding region of the Adh gene, and is flanked on either side by P element sequences. We constructed a genomic library from DNA of this strain and isolated a clone containing the insert and the interband DNA. Subsequently the genomic library of wild-type strain was probed with a subclone composed of interband DNA only. We have thus isolated a clone containing the entire native interband. 1289 bp of interband DNA was sequenced and found to be AT-rich (53.4%) with numerous regions of overlapping direct and inverted repeats, regulatory sites, and two overlapping open reading frames (ORFs).

Expression of the gene encoded by a family of macronuclear chromosomes generated by alternative DNA processing in Oxytricha fallax.

Hypotrichous ciliated protozoa, such as Oxytricha fallax, produce tiny chromosomes during generation of the transcriptionally active macronucleus. The 81-MAC family of macronuclear chromosomes is produced by alternative DNA processing, such that the chromosomes share a common region of 1.6 kbp. Transcription of a 1.3 kb mRNA from the common region has been analyzed. Transcription starts very near the telomere (34 bp), in a 23 bp region of pure A + T DNA. Polyadenylation sites are very near the other telomere (26 bp), also in a region of nearly pure A + T DNA. Three introns are clustered in the first third of the gene. Intron removal can follow polyadenylation, and the order of removal is not fixed. All three known sequence versions of the 81-MAC chromosomes are represented in the mRNA pool, with no evidence of any further versions. The A + T sequences surrounding the transcription starts and polyadenylation sites are conserved among versions. Introns have conserved 5' and 3' ends and a putative branch-point sequence (YYRAT), but otherwise are highly diverged and are AT-rich. A single long open reading frame, interrupted by the three introns, encodes a homolog of known mitochondrial solute carriers, and contains the codon TAA, which does not encode 'stop,' but a conserved glutamine; TAG appears also to encode glutamine. The results significantly enlarge the small data set of transcription start and polyadenylation sites, of intron features, and of translation signals for hypotrichs.

The complete nucleotide sequence of apple mosaic virus (ApMV) RNA 1 and RNA 2: ApMV is more closely related to alfalfa mosaic virus than to other ilarviruses.

The complete nucleotide sequences of apple mosaic virus RNA 1 and 2 have been characterized. Apple mosaic virus RNA 1 is 3476 nucleotides in length and encodes a single large open reading frame (ORF), whereas apple mosaic virus RNA 2 is 2979 nucleotides in length and also encodes a single ORF. The amino acid sequences encoded by RNA 1 and 2 show similarity to all of the other ilarviruses for which sequence data are available, but both are more closely related to alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) than to other ilarviruses. Points of similarity include the absence of ORF 2b, present on the RNA 2 of all previously characterized ilarviruses. The close relationship to AMV also occurs in the movement protein, encoded by RNA 3, but not with the coat protein. These data suggest that the present taxonomy should be revised, and that AMV should be considered an aphid-transmissible ilarvirus.
