Complexities in ETS-domain transcription factor function and regulation: lessons from the TCF (ternary complex factor) subfamily. The Colworth Medal Lecture.

The ETS-domain transcription factor family can be divided into a series of subfamilies. Elk-1 represents the founding member of the ternary complex factor (TCF) subfamily. By focusing on the TCF subfamily, we can demonstrate the complexities that exist in the function and regulation of ETS-domain transcription factors. This article focuses on Elk-1 in detail and summarizes the functions of other TCFs. The key themes covered include the domain structure of the TCFs, the mechanisms of complex formation with serum response factor, regulation of TCFs by mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades, and transcriptional regulatory properties of the TCFs. Finally, the emerging role of the TCFs in vivo is discussed. A picture is developing indicating that, while these proteins exhibit significant sequence and functional conservation, key differences in their structure and regulation are being identified which may relate to unique functions of these proteins in vivo.

Detectability of simultaneously masked signals as a function of masker bandwidth and configuration for different signal delays.

Signal detectability was measured in three temporal conditions as a function of the bandwidth and configuration of simultaneous maskers that either did or did not spectrally overlap the signal. The 20-ms signal was 250 Hz wide and was centered at 2500 Hz (fs). Although there were marked individual differences, performance was typically poorer when signal onset came 1 ms rather than 250 ms after the onset of a 420-ms masker, and poorest when signal onset came 1 ms after the onset of a 23-ms masker. The results support the idea that two separate across-channel processes contribute to temporal changes in signal detectability. One process contributes to the improvement observed as signal onset is delayed from masker onset, and its influence is reduced by the presence of masking components at fs only when the masker extends exclusively below fs. The other process is associated with the improvement observed as masker offset is delayed from signal offset, and its influence is reduced by the presence of masking components at fs when the masker extends exclusively above, or both below and above fs. Both of these processes are primarily activated by frequencies ranging from 0.6 to 0.8fs and 1.2 to 1.4fs. The data also demonstrate that the measured critical bandwidth narrows as signal onset is delayed from masker onset.

Choice for signaled over unsignaled shock as a function of signal length.

Subjects chose between signaled and unsignaled shock conditions while signal length was varied between .5 and 2.0 seconds in steps of .5 seconds in both ascending and descending series. Preference for the signaled condition failed to develop initially for five of six subjects when signals were .5 or 1.0 seconds but became strong for all subjects when signals were 2.0 seconds (ascending series). Preference declined when signals were shortened, but for most subjects this decline was small (descending series). Since discriminable shock-free periods were present in the signaled condition at all signal lengths, these results suggest that safety may not be a sufficient condition for preference to develop for signaled shock.

The methionine-rich domain of the 54 kDa subunit of signal recognition particle is sufficient for the interaction with signal sequences.

The signal recognition particle (SRP) binds to signal sequences when they emerge from a translating ribosome and targets the complex of ribosome, nascent chain and SRP to the membrane of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER) allowing the co-translational translocation of the nascent chain. By photo-crosslinking it has been shown that the signal sequence of preprolactin (PPL) only interacts with the methionine-rich (M) domain of the 54 kDa protein subunit (SRP54) of SRP. Here we show that (i) a signal-anchor sequence is likewise crosslinked only to the methionine-rich domain of SRP54, (ii) free SRP54 can interact with signal sequences independently of the other components of SRP, (iii) its M domain suffices to perform this function, and (iv) an essentially intact M domain is required for signal sequence recognition. Alkylation of the N+G domain in intact SRP54 with N-ethyl maleimide (NEM), but not after cleavage with V8 protease, prevents the binding of a signal sequence to the M domain. This suggests a proximity between the N+G and M domains of SRP54 and raises the possibility that the role of the N+G domain may be to regulate the binding and/or the release of signal sequences.

Reversal of supersensitive striatal dopamine D1 receptor signaling and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activity in dopamine-deficient mice.

Lesions of dopaminergic nigrostriatal neurons cause supersensitivity to dopamine in the striatum. Previous work has shown that such supersensitivity, an important aspect of rodent models of Parkinson's disease, is associated with anatomically abnormal patterns in the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase. After lesions of dopaminergic neurons, dopamine D1-receptor agonists activate extracellular signal-regulated kinase in the dorsal striatum, something not observed in intact animals. Here we used a more selective method of dopamine depletion. Dopamine-deficient mice, in which the tyrosine hydroxylase gene is specifically inactivated in dopaminergic neurons, were used to investigate dopamine D1-receptor-mediated activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase. In wild-type mice, acute treatment with a dopamine D1-receptor agonist results in activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase in the nucleus accumbens without activation in the dorsal striatum. In contrast, in dopamine-deficient mice, dopamine D1-receptor-agonist treatment results in activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase not only in the nucleus accumbens, but also throughout most of the dorsal striatum. Chronic replacement of dopamine by repeated injection of L-DOPA for 36 h reverses this supersensitive extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation. This reversal displays a dorsal to ventral progression such that, by 36 h, extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation is virtually restricted to the nucleus accumbens, as in wild-type mice. The reversal of dopamine D1-receptor activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase in dopamine-deficient mice following chronic L-DOPA treatment shows that the lack of dopamine, rather than absence of other factors secreted from dopaminergic neurons, is responsible for dopamine supersensitivity.

Execution of macrophage apoptosis by Mycobacterium avium through apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling and caspase 8 activation.

Macrophage apoptosis is an important component of the innate immune defense machinery (against pathogenic mycobacteria) responsible for limiting bacillary viability. However, little is known about the mechanism of how apoptosis is executed in mycobacteria-infected macrophages. Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) was activated in Mycobacterium avium-treated macrophages and in turn activated p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. M. avium-induced macrophage cell death could be blocked in cells transfected with a catalytically inactive mutant of ASK1 or with dominant negative p38 MAP kinase arguing in favor of a central role of ASK1/p38 MAP kinase signaling in apoptosis of macrophages challenged with M. avium. ASK1/p38 MAP kinase signaling was linked to the activation of caspase 8. At the same time, M. avium triggered caspase 8 activation, and cell death occurred in a Fas-associated death domain (FADD)-dependent manner. The death signal induced upon caspase 8 activation linked to mitochondrial death signaling through the formation of truncated Bid (t-Bid), its translocation to the mitochondria and release of cytochrome c. Caspase 8 inhibitor (z-IETD-FMK) could block the release of cytochrome c as well as the activation of caspases 9 and 3. The final steps of apoptosis probably involved caspases 9 and 3, since inhibitors of both caspases could block cell death. Of foremost interest in the present study was the finding that ASK1/p38 signaling was essential for caspase 8 activation linked to M. avium-induced death signaling. This work provides the first elucidation of a signaling pathway in which ASK1 plays a central role in innate immunity.

GTPase domain of the 54-kD subunit of the mammalian signal recognition particle is required for protein translocation but not for signal sequence binding.

The 54-kD subunit of the signal recognition particle (SRP54) binds to signal sequences of nascent secretory and transmembrane proteins. SRP54 consists of two separable domains, a 33-kD amino-terminal domain that contains a GTP-binding site (SRP54G) and a 22-kD carboxy-terminal domain (SRP54M) containing binding sites for both the signal sequence and SRP RNA. To examine the function of the two domains in more detail, we have purified SRP54M and used it to assemble a partial SRP that lacks the amino-terminal domain of SRP54 [SRP(-54G)]. This particle recognized signal sequences in two independent assays, albeit less efficiently than intact SRP. Analysis of the signal sequence binding activity of free SRP54 and SRP54M supports the conclusion that SRP54M binds signal sequences with lower affinity than the intact protein. In contrast, when SRP(-54G) was assayed for its ability to promote the translocation of preprolactin across microsomal membranes, it was completely inactive, apparently because it was unable to interact normally with the SRP receptor. These results imply that SRP54G plays an essential role in SRP-mediated targeting of nascent chain-ribosome complexes to the ER membrane and also influences signal sequence recognition, possibly by promoting a tighter association between signal sequences and SRP54M.

Feedback control of mammalian Hedgehog signaling by the Hedgehog-binding protein, Hip1, modulates Fgf signaling during branching morphogenesis of the lung.

Hedgehog (Hh) signaling plays a major role in multiple aspects of embryonic development. A key issue is how negative regulation of Hh signaling might contribute to generating differential responses over tens of cell diameters. In cells that respond to Hh, two proteins that are up-regulated are Patched1 (Ptch1), the Hh receptor, a general target in both invertebrate and vertebrate organisms, and Hip1, a Hh-binding protein that is vertebrate specific. To address the developmental role of Hip1 in the context of Hh signaling, we generated Hip1 mutants in the mouse. Loss of Hip1 function results in specific defects in two Hh target issues, the lung, a target of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling, and the endochondral skeleton, a target of Indian hedgehog (Ihh) signaling. Hh signaling was up-regulated in Hip1 mutants, substantiating Hip1's general role in negatively regulating Hh signaling. Our studies focused on Hip1 in the lung. Here, a dynamic interaction between Hh and fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) signaling, modulated at least in part by Hip1, controls early lung branching.

Oligodendrocytes exhibit selective expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling genes and signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 independent inhibition of interferon-gamma-induced toxicity in response to leukemia inhibitory factor.

Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease of the CNS that results in the death of oligodendrocytes, the myelinating cells of the CNS. Previous studies have indicated that the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor prevents the cytotoxic effects of interferon-gamma on oligodendrocytes in vitro, and the death of oligodendrocytes in an animal model of multiple sclerosis. Members of a recently characterized family of proteins, the suppressors of cytokine signaling, have been demonstrated to mediate negative cross-talk between cytokines, with induction of suppressors of cytokine signaling proteins by one cytokine inhibiting the activity of a second. Here, we assess whether induction of members of the suppressors of cytokine signaling family could explain the antagonistic biological effects of leukemia inhibitory factor and interferon-gamma upon oligodendrocytes. It is found that leukemia inhibitory factor rapidly and strongly induces the expression of suppressors of cytokine signaling-3 in cultured rat oligodendrocytes, whereas interferon-gamma weakly induces the expression of both suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 and 3. Pre-treatment of oligodendrocytes with leukemia inhibitory factor does not prevent the subsequent phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription-1 by interferon-gamma indicating that the leukemia inhibitory factor inhibition of interferon-gamma toxicity in oligodendrocytes is mediated by a suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 independent mechanism.

Signal transduction via the B cell antigen receptor: involvement of a G protein and regulation of signaling.

The antigen receptors on B lymphocytes, membrane forms of immunoglobulins, transduce signals regulating B cell growth and differentiation by activating a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C. In this report, we describe our recent work aimed at understanding this process in greater detail. We have shown that a GTP-binding component is a necessary cofactor in the stimulation of phospholipase C by mIgM. This component has a number of properties in common with the G protein family of receptor-effector coupling components seen in the adenylate cyclase and other signaling systems. For example, analogues of GTP that cannot be hydrolyzed stimulated mIgM-triggered phosphoinositide breakdown, and an analogue of GDP that cannot be converted to GTP inhibited the reactions. Furthermore, aluminum fluoride, which activates known G proteins, also stimulates phosphoinositide breakdown. The G protein that appears to link mIgM to phospholipase C is not one of the well characterized G proteins involved in the regulation of adenylate cyclase or cGMP phosphodiesterase (GS, Gi, and transducin), as judged by its insensitivity to two bacterial toxins that modify these G proteins, cholera toxin and pertussis toxin. Interestingly, analysis of pertussis toxin sensitivity indicates that there are at least 2 distinct G proteins that couple receptors to phospholipase C. For example, the G protein required for chemotactic peptide receptor signaling in neutrophils is sensitive to pertussis toxin, in contrast to the phosphoinositide signaling G protein in B cells. We have also begun to explore the mechanisms by which mIgM signal transduction can be modulated. Stimulation of protein kinase C with phorbol esters or synthetic DG was found to inhibit mIgM-triggered phosphoinositide breakdown. This regulation probably represents a feedback inhibition that would occur with DG produced by phosphoinositide breakdown. Alternatively, there appear to be other signaling pathways that generate DG33, and they could possibly inhibit phosphoinositide breakdown via protein kinase C. This could be an important locus of regulation during B cell activation. For example, other signals could increase or decrease the potency of this feedback inhibition, and thereby adjust the sensitivity of the B cell to antigen. Alternatively, other agents could stimulate protein kinase C directly, or could stimulate another protein kinase which can do the same thing in this regard, and thereby make the B cell insensitive to antigen by preventing antigen receptor signaling.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

IL-1beta-induced pro-apoptotic signalling is facilitated by NCAM/FGF receptor signalling and inhibited by the C3d ligand in the INS-1E rat beta cell line.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: IL-1beta released from immune cells induces beta cell pro-apoptotic signalling via mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). In neurons, the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) signals to several elements involved in IL-1beta-induced pro-apoptotic signalling in beta cells. Pancreatic beta cells express NCAM, but its biological effects in these cells are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is cross-talk between NCAM signalling and cytokine-induced pro-apoptotic signalling. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Western blotting was used to investigate levels of NCAM and inducible nitric oxide synthase, phosphorylation of Src and MAPKs, and cleavage of caspase-3. MAPK activity was investigated with an in vitro kinase assay. Apoptosis was detected by cleaved caspase-3 and a Cell Death Detection ELISA(plus) assay. NCAM-induced fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) activation was investigated in NCAM(-/-) Trex293 cells where FGFR phosphorylation was measured by Western blotting after NCAM transfection. RESULTS: Pre-exposure of INS-1E cells to the FGFR-inhibitor SU5402, but not to the Src-inhibitor PP2, dose-dependently inhibited IL-1beta-mediated MAPK activity. A synthetic peptide, C3d, reported to bind NCAM, did not activate MAPK or Akt as reported in neurons but inhibited IL-1beta-induced MAPK activity, thereby mimicking the effect of SU5402. Furthermore, C3d inhibited NCAM-induced FGFR phosphorylation and apoptosis induced by IL-1beta plus IFN-gamma, but did not affect IL-1beta-induced NF-kappaB signalling. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: We suggest that NCAM signalling through FGFR is required for efficient IL-1beta pro-apoptotic signalling by facilitating IL-1beta-induced MAPK activation downstream of the NF-kappaB-MAPK branching point. Further, these data identify a novel function of C3d as an inhibitor of NCAM-induced FGFR activity and of IL-1beta-induced MAPK activation in beta cells.

Effects of signal duration on the recognition of masked communication signals by the grasshopper Chorthippus biguttulus.

The detection and recognition of acoustic communication signals masked by noise was investigated in a grasshopper (Chorthippus biguttulus) whose auditory system exhibits only poor spectral resolution and therefore has to operate in the time domain. The signals of this species consist of numerous identical subunits that enable the receiver, in principle, to make repetitive measurements. We aimed at determining the maximum integration time in this species by using stimuli of different durations under increasing noise levels. As a criterion for recognition the typical phonotactic turning response of the males was evaluated, which is reliably triggered by a female song, and thus is a sensitive indicator for recognition of conspecific signals. When confronted with a long signal (1000 ms) males tolerated a 2.4 dB higher noise level as compared to a short signal (250 ms). Noise tolerance improved with increasing signal duration from 250 ms to 450 ms. Beyond this signal duration, however, no further improvement was observed, indicating an upper limit for temporal integration that corresponds to only five song subunits. The gain in noise tolerance had a slope of 2.7 dB per doubling duration, which corresponds to the expectation derived from an energy detector model (3 dB per doubling duration) rather than to the value expected from signal detection theory (1.5 dB per doubling duration).

PrlC, a suppressor of signal sequence mutations in Escherichia coli, can direct the insertion of the signal sequence into the membrane.

The prlC gene product of Escherichia coli can be altered by mutation so that it restores export of proteins with defective signal sequences. The strongest suppressor, prlC8, restores processing of a mutant signal sequence to a rate indistinguishable from the wild-type. Data obtained by changing gene dosage of the dominant suppressor and its specificity for different signal sequence mutations suggest that PrlC8 interacts directly with the hydrophobic core of the signal sequence. Despite the fact that signal sequence processing appears to be mediated by leader peptidase, the processed mature protein is not translocated efficiently from the cytoplasm. Results obtained with various double mutants indicate that PrlC8-mediated processing of mutant signal sequences does not require components of the cellular export machinery such as SecA, SecB or PrlA (SecY) and that the block in translocation from the cytoplasm occurs because PrlA (SecY) fails to recognize the defective signal sequence. We suggest that PrlC8 directs insertion of the mutant signal sequence into the membrane bilayer to an extent that processing by leader peptidase can occur. This reaction is novel in that it has not been observed previously in vivo.

Effect of sample window length on the correlation between RF signal and pulsed Doppler signal intensity.

Ultrasound pulsed Doppler systems, as used in medical applications, are based on the detection of the phase difference between a reference signal and the received radio frequency (RF) signal averaged over the sample window. Thereby, it is implicitly assumed that the phase of the received signal will increase linearly with depth. However, the ultrasound signal originates from particles with a random spatial distribution. Therefore, it may be anticipated that the accuracy of the estimate for the phase difference will not improve by elongating the sample window. To test this hypothesis, simulated random phase RF signals with various bandwidths were subjected to demodulation using a rectangular observation window of different lengths. It is concluded that the correlation coefficient between RF intensity and Doppler intensity goes down for long sample windows. Moreover, the coefficient of variation of the estimate for the intensity of the received signal decreases for an increasing length of the observation window. The variation coefficient of the Doppler amplitude remains very close to one for all signal and processing conditions. These observations demonstrate that for Doppler signal amplitude assessment, the effect of the length of the observation window should be taken into account.

The time-variable photoplethysmographic signal; dependence of the heart synchronous signal on wavelength and sample volume.

The photoplethysmorgraphic signal (PPG) from forearm skin and the ECG were recorded simultaneously from healthy subjects. The optical signal was derived with a fibre-optic probe which consisted of 61 fibre pairs. The peak-to-peak averaged a.c.-signal was calculated. The dependency of this signal and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) on the light wavelength and on sample volume was studied. The light intensities used at 560 nm were 0.015 and 0.029 mWmm-2 and at 940 nm we used 0.029, 1.37 and 2.77 mWmm-2. A theoretical model for calculation of the sample volumes was also developed. The amplitude and SNR of the a.c.-signal at 560 nm is larger than at 940 nm at the same intensity (0.029 mWmm-2). At 940 nm using 1.37 and 2.77 mWmm-2 the a.c.-signal increased with the number of fibre pairs (volume) while the SNR was little affected. At 560 nm it is suggested that the major contribution to the a.c.-signal is pulsations in the ascending arterioles and at 940 nm from pulsations in the larger vessels deeper in the tissue volume under study.

Reversible vesicle restraint in response to spatiotemporally controlled electrical signals: a bridge between electrical and chemical signaling modes.

Microelectronic devices employ electrons for signaling whereas the nervous system signals using ions and chemicals. Bridging these signaling differences would benefit applications that range from biosensing to neuroprosthetics. Here, we report the use of localized electrical signals to perform an operation common to chemical signaling in the nervous system. Specifically, we employ electrical signals to restrain vesicles reversibly. We perform this operation using the stimuli-responsive aminopolysaccharide chitosan that is able to electrodeposit onto cathode surfaces in response to localized electrical stimuli. We show that surfactant-vesicles and liposomes can be co-deposited with chitosan and are entrapped (i.e., restrained) within the deposited film's matrix. Vesicle co-deposition could be controlled spatially and temporally using microfabricated wafers with independent electrode addresses. Finally, we show that vesicles restrained within the deposited chitosan matrix can be mobilized under mildly acidic conditions (pH <6.5) that resolubilize chitosan. Potentially, the ability to restrain and mobilize chemical signals that are segregated within vesicles may allow microfluidic systems to access the rich diversity offered by chemical signaling.

The RGS (regulator of G-protein signalling) and GoLoco domains of RGS14 co-operate to regulate Gi-mediated signalling.

RGS (regulator of G-protein signalling) proteins stimulate the intrinsic GTPase activity of the a subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins, and thereby negatively regulate G-protein-coupled receptor signalling. RGS14 has been shown previously to stimulate the GTPase activities of Ga(o) and Ga(i) subunits through its N-terminal RGS domain, and to down-modulate signalling from receptors coupled to G(i). It also contains a central domain that binds active Rap proteins, as well as a C-terminal GoLoco/G-protein regulatory motif that has been shown to act in vitro as a GDP-dissociation inhibitor for Ga(i). In order to elucidate the respective contributions of the three functional domains of RGS14 to its ability to regulate G(i) signalling, we generated RGS14 mutants invalidated in each of its domains, as well as truncated molecules, and assessed their effects on G(i) signalling via the bg pathway in a stable cell line ectopically expressing the G(i)-coupled M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (HEK-m2). We show that the RGS and GoLoco domains of RGS14 are independently able to inhibit signalling downstream of G(i). Targeting of the isolated GoLoco domain to membranes, by myristoylation/palmitoylation or Rap binding, enhances its inhibitory activity on G(i) signalling. Finally, in the context of the full RGS14 molecule, the RGS and GoLoco domains co-operate to confer maximal activity on RGS14. We therefore propose that RGS14 combines the inhibition of G(i) activation or coupling to receptors via its GoLoco domain with stimulation of the GTPase activity of Ga(i)-GTP via its RGS domain to negatively regulate signalling downstream of G(i).

Mitogenic signaling via endogenous kappa-opioid receptors in C6 glioma cells: evidence for the involvement of protein kinase C and the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling cascade.

As reports on G protein-coupled receptor signal transduction mechanisms continue to emphasize potential differences in signaling due to relative receptor levels and cell type specificities, the need to study endogenously expressed receptors in appropriate model systems becomes increasingly important. Here we examine signal transduction mechanisms mediated by endogenous kappa-opioid receptors in C6 glioma cells, an astrocytic model system. We find that the kappa-opioid receptor-selective agonist U69,593 stimulates phospholipase C activity, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation, PYK2 phosphorylation, and DNA synthesis. U69,593-stimulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is shown to be upstream of DNA synthesis as inhibition of signaling components such as pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, L-type Ca2+ channels, phospholipase C, intracellular Ca2+ release, protein kinase C, and mitogen-activated protein or extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase blocks both of these downstream events. In addition, by overexpressing dominant-negative or sequestering mutants, we provide evidence that extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is Ras-dependent and transduced by Gbetagamma subunits. In summary, we have delineated major features of the mechanism of the mitogenic action of an agonist of the endogenous kappa-opioid receptor in C6 glioma cells.
