Project description:The deadly maltreated body of Vittrup Man was deposited in a Danish bog, probably as part of a ritualised sacrifice. It happened between c. 3300 and 3100 cal years BC, i.e., during the period of the local farming-based Funnel Beaker Culture. In terms of skull morphological features he differs from the majority of the contemporaneous farmers found in Denmark, and associates with hunter-gatherers, who inhabited Scandinavia during the previous millennia. His skeletal remains were selected for transdisciplinary analysis to reveal his life-history in terms of a population historical perspective. We report the combined results of an integrated set of genetic, isotopic, physical anthropological and archaeological analytical approaches. Strontium signature suggests a foreign birthplace that could be in Norway or Sweden. In addition, enamel oxygen isotope values indicate that as a child he lived in a colder climate, i.e., to the north of the regions inhabited by farmers. Genomic data in fact demonstrates that he is closely related to Mesolithic humans known from Norway and Sweden. Moreover, dietary stable isotope analyses on enamel and bone collagen demonstrate a fisher-hunter way of life in his childhood and a diet typical of farmers later on. Such a volatile life-history is also reflected by proteomic analysis of hardened organic deposits on his teeth, indicating the consumption of forager food (seal, whale and marine fish) as well as farmer food (sheep/goat). From a dietary isotopic transect of one of his teeth it is shown that his transfer between societies of foragers and farmers took place near to the end of his late teenage years.

Project description:Dynamic cycling of N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) on serine (Ser) and threonine (Thr) residues (O-GlcNAcylation) is an essential process in all eukaryotic cells except yeast, e.g Saccharomyces cerevisiae. O-GlcNAcylation modulates signaling and cellular processes in an intricate interplay with protein phosphorylation, and serves as a key sensor of nutrients by linking the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP) to cellular signaling. A longstanding conundrum has been how yeast survives without O-GlcNAcylation in light of its similar phosphorylation signaling system. We previously developed a sensitive lectin enrichment and mass spectrometry workflow for identification of the human O-Mannose (O-Man) glycoproteome, and used this to identify a pleothora of O-linked mannose glycoproteins in human cell lines including the large family of cadherins and protocadherins. Here, we applied the workflow to yeast with the aim to characterize the yeast O-Man glycoproteome, and doing so we discovered hitherto unknown O-Man glycosites on nuclear, cytoplasmic and mitochondrial proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The type of nucleocytoplasmic proteins and the localization of identified O-Man residues mirrors that of the O-GlcNAc glycoproteome in other eukaryotic cells, indicating that the two different types of O-glycosylations serve the same important biological functions. The discovery opens for exploration of the enzyme machinery that is predicted to regulate the discovered nucleocytoplasmic O-Man glycosylation. It is likely that manipulation of this type of O-Man glycosylation will have wide applications for yeast bioprocessing.

Project description:Although the roots of Ras sprouted from the rich history of retrovirus research, it was the discovery of mutationally activated RAS genes in human cancer in 1982 that stimulated an intensive research effort to understand Ras protein structure, biochemistry and biology. While the ultimate goal has been developing anti-Ras drugs for cancer treatment, discoveries from Ras have laid the foundation for three broad areas of science. First, they focused studies on the origins of cancer to the molecular level, with the subsequent discovery of genes mutated in cancer that now number in the thousands. Second, elucidation of the biochemical mechanisms by which Ras facilitates signal transduction established many of our fundamental concepts of how a normal cell orchestrates responses to extracellular cues. Third, Ras proteins are also founding members of a large superfamily of small GTPases that regulate all key cellular processes and established the versatile role of small GTP-binding proteins in biology. We highlight some of the key findings of the last 28 years.

Project description:Introductionand importance Polyorchidism is defined as the presence of three testes or more. Approximately, there are about 200 cases of polyorchidism in the medical literature. In the past, surgical treatment was done but now with imaging studies, less aggressive approach is recommended.Here we present a case of 40-year-old man who was diagnosed incidentally with polyorchidism in the right hemiscrotum which is quite unusual in this age.Case presentationA 40-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a swelling and pain in the left hemiscrotum. In palpation, we noticed a scrotal mass in the right hemiscrotum. His parents had first noticed a scrotal mass when he was two years old and was incorrectly diagnosed as hydrocele by an unauthorized practitioner.In the left hemiscrotum, Doppler confirmed acute epididymitis diagnosis that was treated conservatively with antibiotics and NSAIDs. In the right hemiscrotum, MRI showed that the lump had separate epididymis and shared a common vas deferens with the right testis, which confirmed the diagnosis of supernumerary testis and the patient underwent a follow-up ultrasound after a month and after six months of his presentation.DiscussionTriorchidism is the most common type of polyorchidism. Polyorchidism is diagnosed incidentally hence it is asymptomatic. There are many types of Polyorchidism and tow classification have been described. When the patient is asymptomatic the concentrative treatment is recommended.ConclusionPolyorchidism is a rare congenital anomaly in the genitourinary tract. It is diagnosed incidentally. Ultrasound or MRI are used to diagnose polyorchidism cases.
