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.

Identification and analysis of Arabidopsis expressed sequence tags characteristic of non-coding RNAs.

Sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome has led to the identification of thousands of new putative genes based on the predicted proteins they encode. Genes encoding tRNAs, ribosomal RNAs, and small nucleolar RNAs have also been annotated; however, a potentially important class of genes has largely escaped previous annotation efforts. These genes correspond to RNAs that lack significant open reading frames and encode RNA as their final product. Accumulating evidence indicates that such "non-coding RNAs" (ncRNAs) can play critical roles in a wide range of cellular processes, including chromosomal silencing, transcriptional regulation, developmental control, and responses to stress. Approximately 15 putative Arabidopsis ncRNAs have been reported in the literature or have been annotated. Although several have homologs in other plant species, all appear to be plant specific, with the exception of signal recognition particle RNA. Conversely, none of the ncRNAs reported from yeast or animal systems have homologs in Arabidopsis or other plants. To identify additional genes that are likely to encode ncRNAs, we used computational tools to filter protein-coding genes from genes corresponding to 20,000 expressed sequence tag clones. Using this strategy, we identified 19 clones with characteristics of ncRNAs, nine putative peptide-coding RNAs with open reading frames smaller than 100 amino acids, and 11 that could not be differentiated between the two categories. Again, none of these clones had homologs outside the plant kingdom, suggesting that most Arabidopsis ncRNAs are likely plant specific. These data indicate that ncRNAs represent a significant and underdeveloped aspect of Arabidopsis genomics that deserves further study.

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.

A novel subgroup among genotypes of equine arteritis virus: genetic comparison of 40 strains.

The authors determined partial nucleic sequences of the variable regions of open-reading frame (ORF5) from 151 nucleotide to 668 nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of 518 nucleotide respectively of 20 equine arteritis virus (EAV) isolates. About 19 Hungarian and one Austrian EAV strains were subjected to sequence analysis, the further data of 20 EAV strains: six North American and 14 European were obtained from the GenBank. Comparative sequence analysis of the Hungarian EAV strains indicated that among the three variable regions the first has been affected mostly by point mutations. Genetic comparison of the Hungarian strains with other EAV isolates from western Europe and North America (including the Bucyrus reference strain) has been performed on the aforementioned genome region. Besides the already known genetic subgroups of EAV; phylogenetic analysis revealed a novel subgroup comprising mainly Hungarian strains. Compared with the Bucyrus virus, the overall sequence divergencies of the examined Hungarian strains ranged from 81.47 to 90.73% at nucleotide and from 84.88 to 91.86% at amino acid level. Epizootiological studies have shown that the significant part of the EAV strains having been existed in Hungary before and in 2000 belong to this unique cluster (II.D) which was not indicated in former phylogenetic studies. After 2000 new EAV strains emerged in Hungary, one of them causing abortions or neonatal death. The previously dominant 'Hungarian' EAV genotypes were replaced by these new strains belonging to North American and European subgroups (I.A, I.B, II.A, II.B). The anamnesis of these cases revealed connections with persistent virus shedder stallions, those were imported to the country after 2000 or have been infected abroad. One of these Hungarian stallions became the source of abortion storms in Hungarian studs.

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.

The nucleotide sequence of the bacteriophage T5 ltf gene.

The nucleotide sequence of the bacteriophage T5 Bg/II-BamHI fragment (4,835 bp in length) known to carry a gene encoding the LTF protein which forms the phage L-shaped tail fibers was determined. It was shown to contain an open reading frame for 1,396 amino acid residues that corresponds to a protein of 147.8 kDa. The coding region of ltf gene is preceded by a typical Shine-Dalgarno sequence. Downstream from the ltf gene there is a strong transcription terminator. Data bank analysis of the LTF protein sequence reveals 55.1% identity to the hypothetical protein ORF 401 of bacteriophage lambda in a segment of 118 amino acids overlap.

Identification, cloning, and nucleotide sequencing of the ornithine decarboxylase antizyme gene of Escherichia coli.

The ornithine decarboxylase antizyme gene of Escherichia coli was identified by immunological screening of an E. coli genomic library. A 6.4-kilobase fragment containing the antizyme gene was subcloned and sequenced. The open reading frame encoding the antizyme was identified on the basis of its ability to direct the synthesis of immunoreactive antizyme. Antizyme shares significant homology with bacterial transcriptional activators of the two-component regulatory system family; these systems consist of a "sensor" kinase and a transcriptional regulator. The open reading frame next to antizyme is homologous to sensor kinases. Antizyme overproduction inhibits the activities of both ornithine and arginine decarboxylases without affecting their protein levels. Extracts from E. coli bearing an antizyme gene-containing plasmid exhibit increased antizyme activity. These data strongly suggest that (i) the cloned gene encodes the ornithine decarboxylase antizyme and (ii) antizyme is a bifunctional protein serving as both an inhibitor of polyamine biosynthesis as well as a transcriptional regulator of an as yet unknown set of genes.
