まとめ
紫外線はRNAを損傷し,ZAKキナーゼ経由でアポトーシスを誘発するリボ毒性ストレス反応 (RSR) を引き起こすが,DNA損傷反応 (DDR) は誘発しない. ネガティブなフィードバックはZAKを調節し 核酸の損傷を防ぎます

- 放射線生物学
背景:
- 紫外線 (UV) はDNA損傷を引き起こし,DNA損傷反応 (DDR) を活性化します.
- 紫外線はまたRNAを損傷し,リボソームの衝突とリボ毒性ストレス反応 (RSR) を引き起こす.
- 紫外線曝露後の細胞運命を決定するDDRとRSRの相互作用は不明である.
研究 の 目的:
- 紫外線による細胞損傷の後に起こる時系列的なシグナルイベントを明らかにする.
- 紫外線誘発性アポトーシスにおけるDDRとRSR経路の相対的な貢献を決定する.

主な方法:
- 時間分解のフォスフォプロテオミクス
- 化学遺伝学
- 単細胞イメージング
- 生化学的測定法
主要な成果:
- 紫外線誘発のアポトーシスは,DDRとは独立してRSRキナーゼZAKによって媒介される.
- 2つのネガティブなフィードバックループがZAKの活動を調節します. GCN2の活性化がRSRを制限し,ZAKの自己リン酸化/分解がZAKの活動を調節します.

Mutations
36.5K
Mutations are changes in the sequence of DNA. These changes can occur spontaneously or they can be induced by exposure to environmental factors. Mutations can be characterized in a number of different ways: whether and how they alter the amino acid sequence of the protein, whether they occur over a small or large area of DNA, and whether they occur in somatic cells or germline cells.

Regulation of the Unfolded Protein Response
2.4K
Inositol-requiring kinase one or IRE1 is the most conserved eukaryotic unfolded protein response (UPR) receptor. It is a type I transmembrane protein kinase receptor with a distinctive site-specific RNase activity. As the binding mechanics of the misfolded proteins with the N-terminal domain of IRE-1 are unclear, three binding models — direct, indirect, and allosteric -- are proposed for receptor activation. Nevertheless, it is known that once a misfolded protein associates with IRE1, it...

DNA Distortion and Damage
Cells are regularly exposed to mutagens—factors in the environment that can damage DNA and generate mutations. UV radiation is one of the most common mutagens and is estimated to introduce a significant number of changes in DNA. These include bends or kinks in the structure, which can block DNA replication or transcription. If these errors are not fixed, the damage can cause mutations, which in turn can result in cancer or disease depending on which sequences are...

DNA Damage can Stall the Cell Cycle
9.1K
In response to DNA damage, cells can pause the cell cycle to assess and repair the breaks. However, the cell must check the DNA at certain critical stages during the cell cycle. If the cell cycle pauses before DNA replication, the cells will contain twice the amount of DNA. On the other hand, if cells arrest after DNA replication but before mitosis, they will contain four times the normal amount of DNA. With a host of specialized proteins at their disposal,cells must use the right protein at...

Overview of DNA Repair
31.0K
In order to be passed through generations, genomic DNA must be undamaged and error-free. However, every day, DNA in a cell undergoes several thousand to a million damaging events by natural causes and external factors. Ionizing radiation such as UV rays, free radicals produced during cellular respiration, and hydrolytic damage from metabolic reactions can alter the structure of DNA. Damages caused include single-base alteration, base dimerization, chain breaks, and cross-linkage.

The Unfolded Protein Response
4.5K
The ER is the hub of protein synthesis in a cell. It has robust systems to quality control protein folding and also for degradation of terminally misfolded proteins. Under normal conditions, a small proportion of misfolded proteins that cannot be salvaged need to be transported to the cytoplasm by the ER-associated degradation or ERAD pathways. However, if the ERAD cannot handle the misfolded proteins, the cell activates the unfolded protein response or UPR to adjust the protein folding...
