Zinc finger-like motifs in rat ribosomal proteins S27 and S29.

ABSTRACT: The primary structures of the rat 40S ribosomal subunit proteins S27 and S29 were deduced from the sequences of nucleotides in recombinant cDNAs and confirmed by determination of amino acid sequences in the proteins. Ribosomal protein S27 has 83 amino acids and the molecular weight is 9,339. Hybridization of cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 4-6 copies of the S27 gene; the mRNA for the protein is about 620 nucleotides in length. Ribosomal protein S29 has 55 amino acids and the molecular weight is 6,541. There are 14-17 copies of the S29 gene and its mRNA is about 500 nucleotides in length. Rat ribosomal protein S29 is related to several members of the archaebacterial and eubacterial S14 family of ribosomal proteins. S27 and S29 have zinc finger-like motifs as do other proteins from eukaryotic, archaebacterial, eubacterial, and mitochondrial ribosomes. Moreover, ribosomes and ribosomal subunits appear to contain zinc and iron as well.

Global analysis of Drosophila Cys2-His2 zinc finger proteins reveals a multitude of novel recognition motifs and binding determinants.

Project description:Cys2-His2 zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) are the largest group of transcription factors in higher metazoans. A complete characterization of these ZFPs and their associated target sequences is pivotal to fully annotate transcriptional regulatory networks in metazoan genomes. As a first step in this process, we have characterized the DNA-binding specificities of 130 Zinc finger sets from Drosophila melanogaster using a bacterial one-hybrid system. This data set contains the DNA-binding specificities for at least one encoded ZFP from 71 unique genes and 22 alternate splice isoforms. This represents the largest block of characterized ZFPs from any organism described to date. These recognition motifs can be used to predict genomic binding sites and potential regulatory targets for these factors within the fruit fly genome. We have characterized subsets of fingers from these ZFPs to define the correct orientation and register of the zinc fingers on their defined binding sites. By correlating individual fingers with motif subsites, we can assign finger specificity throughout each ZFP. This reveals the diversity of recognition potential within the naturally-occurring zinc fingers of a single organism, where the characterized fingers can specify 47 of the 64 possible DNA triplets. To confirm the utility of our finger recognition models, we have employed subsets of Drosophila fingers in combination with an existing archive of zinc finger modules to create ZFPs with novel DNA-binding specificity. These finger combinations can be used to create novel functional Zinc Finger Nucleases for editing vertebrate genomes.

Differentially expressed zinc finger proteins during human adipogenesis

Project description:To investigate the collective role of zinc finger proteins in adipogenesis, we induced adipogenesis using human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and compared the gene expression profiles using human Illumina beads arrays. We performed three independent experiments of time-series analysis (0h, 1h, 12h, 24h, 2d, 4d, 6d, 9d, 12d, 15d after induction of adipogenesis) in order to comprehensively capture the dynamic profiles of transcriptome during differentiation. Statistical filtering based on Analysis of Variance (ANOVA; p-value < 0.001, FDR 5%) and Gene Ontology classification using the Human Gene Nomenclature Database (HGNC) identified 618 out of 678 zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) that were significantly expressed during adipogenesis. Moreover, 34 out of 618 genes were differentially expressed more than 2-fold up or down regulated. The K-means clustering analysis further revealed four dynamic expression patterns: one gene in early-response, seven genes in transient, twenty genes in progressively-induced and four genes in the down-regulated, demonstrating the dynamic involvement of ZFPs in the process of adipocyte differentiation and maturation. Total RNA obteind from 10 different time points (0h, 1h, 12h, 24h, 2d, 4d, 6d, 9d, 12d, 15d) during adipogenesis from human Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) to Adipocyte (ADP). Adipogensis was induced by the different cocktail of chemical compunds containing human-insulin, dexamethasone, indomethacin and IBMX.
