    • Expanded CAG repeat sequences have been identified in the coding region of genes mutated in several neurodegenerative disorders, including spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 and Machado-Joseph disease. In all disorders described to date the CAG expansion codes for an elongated polyglutamine chain. An increased polyglutamine chain size leads to a more severe disease, thus correlating with the genetic anticipation seen in repeat expansion disorders. Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is an autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia with anticipation and a progressive degeneration of the cerebellar cortex. Using repeat expansion detection (RED), a method in which a thermostable ligase is used to detect repeat expansions directly from genomic DNA, we have analyzed 8 SCA7 families for the presence of CAG repeat expansions. RED products of 150-240 bp were found in all affected individuals and found to cosegregate with the disease (P < 0.000001, n = 66), indicating strongly that a CAG expansion is the cause of SCA7. On the basis of a previously established correlation between RED product sizes and actual repeat sizes in Machado-Joseph disease, we were able to estimate the average expansion size in SCA7 to be 64 CAG copies.

  • NK-lysin, a disulfide-containing effector peptide of T-lymphocytes, is reduced and inactivated by human thioredoxin reductase. Implication for a protective mechanism against NK-lysin cytotoxicity
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: Journal of Biological Chemistry. - : American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. - 0021-9258 .- 1083-351X. ; 271:17, s. 10116-10120

    • The cytotoxic and antibacterial polypeptide NK-lysin has a molecular mass of approximately 9 kDa and contains three disulfide bonds. The activity was highly dependent on intact disulfides, because the bactericidal effect on Escherichia coli and the cytolytic effect on human 3B6 lymphocytes was inhibited when NK-lysin was treated with dithiothreitol prior to incubation with the cells. NK-lysin was a direct substrate for human or calf thymus thioredoxin reductase and preincubation of the peptide with mammalian thioredoxin reductase, and NADPH abolished its antibacterial and cytolytic activities. The addition of human thioredoxin further enhanced the inhibitory effect of thioredoxin reductase and NADPH. In contrast, e. coli thioredoxin reductase showed no direct disulfide reductase activity with NK-lysin in agreement with previous data showing large differences in structure and substrate specificity between the mammalian and E. coli enzymes. NK-lysin is the first identified macromolecular disulfide substrate for human thioredoxin reductase apart from human thioredoxin. When 3B6 cells were incubated with NADPH, thioredoxin, and thioredoxin reductase prior to addition of NK-lysin, cytotoxicity was markedly reduced. These data suggest that thioredoxin reductase inactivates NK-lysin and provides a mechanism by which the cytotoxic activity of NK-lysin is regulated.
