    • Laser-induced autofluorescence spectra from humans were recorded in vivo at three different clinics in a study aimed at investigating the capability of this method to discriminate between malignant tumours and normal surrounding tissues. For the recordings a mobile trolley with the necessary equipment was constructed for use in an examination room or in an operating theatre environment. Laser light was guided through a 600m optical fibre to the target tissue. The fluorescence from the excited tissue was collected with the same fibre and was fed to an optical multichannel analyser. Two excitation wavelengths were used (337 and 405 nm) in order to optimize the fluorescence signals in two interesting wavelength regions (380–500 and 550–700 nm). Oral and oropharyngeal tumours excited with 405 nm light contained detectable endogenous porphyrins and were in this way discriminated from the normal mucosa. Astrocytoma grade III–IV fluorescence different from that of normal brain tissue, while tumours in the bronchial tree were not detectable using the spectral shape of the pure tissue autofluorescence.

  • Mutational analysis of conserved positions potentially important for initiator tRNA function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
  • 1992
  • Ingår i: Molecular and Cellular Biology. - : American Society for Microbiology. - 0270-7306 .- 1098-5549. ; 12:4, s. 1432-1442

    • The conserved positions of the eukaryotic cytoplasmic initiator tRNA have been suggested to be important for the initiation of protein synthesis. However, the role of these positions is not known. We describe in this report a functional analysis of the yeast initiator methionine tRNA (tRNA(iMet)), using a novel in vivo assay system which is not dependent on suppressor tRNAs. Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with null alleles of the four initiator methionine tRNA (IMT) genes were constructed. Consequently, growth of these strains was dependent on tRNA(iMet) encoded from a plasmid-derived gene. We used these strains to investigate the significance of the conserved nucleosides of yeast tRNA(iMet) in vivo. Nucleotide substitutions corresponding to the nucleosides of the yeast elongator methionine tRNA (tRNA(MMet)) have been made at all conserved positions to identify the positions that are important for tRNA(iMet) to function in the initiation process. Surprisingly, nucleoside changes in base pairs 3-70, 12-23, 31-39, and 29-41, as well as expanding loop I by inserting an A at position 17 (A17) had no effect on the tester strain. Nucleotide substitutions in positions 54 and 60 to cytidines and guanosines (C54, G54, C60, and G60) did not prevent cell growth. In contrast, the double mutation U/rT54C60 blocked cell growth, and changing the A-U base pair 1-72 to a G-C base pair was deleterious to the cell, although these tRNAs were synthesized and accepted methionine in vitro. From our data, we suggest that an A-U base pair in position 1-72 is important for tRNA(iMet) function, that the hypothetical requirement for adenosines at positions 54 and 60 is invalid, and that a U/rT at position 54 is an antideterminant distinguishing an elongator from an initiator tRNA in the initiation of translation.

  • Generalisation of conditioning technique for anti-windup compensation
  • 1992
  • Ingår i: IEE Proceedings D (Control Theory and Applications). - : Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). - 0143-7054 .- 2053-793X. ; 139:2, s. 109-118

    • For linear controllers, the anti-windup compensator based on conditioning technique is often treated as a special case of the generalised anti-windup compensator. The conditioning technique is then defined simply by a special observer in the generalised anti-windup compensator. Instead, in the paper the concept of back calculation or the modified setpoint is emphasised, which is indeed the conceptual basis for the derivation of the conditioning technique. The behaviour of the modified setpoint is investigated by use of a simple example, and an inherent weakness in the conditioning technique is demonstrated. A simple modification to the conditioning technique that reduces the effect of short-sightedness is presented, and its anti-windup compensation properties are investigated. Also, a general approach to the conditioning technique is proposed by introducing a filtered setpoint. This approach provides a parameterisation to deal not only with the short-sightedness problem but also with the other drawbacks of the conditioning technique. An important outcome of this generalisation is that it unifies and interprets through the conditioning technique a class of AWCs described in the literature.

  • Rit1, a tRNA backbone-modifying enzyme that mediates initiator and elongator tRNA discrimination
  • 1994
  • Ingår i: Cell. - : Elsevier. - 0092-8674 .- 1097-4172. ; 79:3, s. 535-546
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Using a genetic screen in yeast aimed at identifying cellular factors involved in initiator and elongator methionine tRNA discrimination in the translational process, we have identified a mutation that abolish the requirement for elongator methionine tRNA. The gene affected, which we call the ribosylation of the initiator tRNA gene or RIT1, encodes a 2'-O-ribosyl phosphate transferase. This enzyme modifies exclusively the initiator tRNA in position 64 using 5'-phosphoribosyl-1'-pyrophosphate as the modification donor. As the initiator tRNA participates both in the initiation and elongation of translation in a rit1 strain, we conclude that the 2'-O-ribosyl phosphate modification discriminates the initiator tRNAs from the elongator tRNAs during protein synthesis. The modification enzyme was shown to recognize the stem-loop IV region that is unique in eukaryotic cytoplasmic initiator tRNAs.

  • The yeast initiator tRNAMet can act as an elongator tRNA(Met) in vivo
  • 1993
  • Ingår i: Journal of Molecular Biology. - : Academic Press. - 0022-2836 .- 1089-8638. ; 233:1, s. 43-58

    • Saccharomyces cerevisiae uses two different methionine accepting tRNAs during protein synthesis. One, tRNA(iMet), is used exclusively during the initiation of translation whereas the other, tRNA(mMet), is used during the elongation of translation. To study the unique features of each methionine tRNA species, we constructed yeast strains with null alleles of the five elongator methionine tRNA (EMT) genes and strains with null alleles of the four initiator methionine tRNA (IMT) genes, respectively. Consequently, growth of these strains was dependent either on a tRNA(mMet) or a tRNA(iMet), respectively, encoded from a plasmid-derived gene. For both null mutants, the plasmid carrying the wild-type gene can be selected against and exchanged for another plasmid derived EMT or IMT gene (wild-type or mutant). A high gene dosage of the wild-type IMT gene could restore growth to the elongator-depleted strain. However, wild-type EMT genes in a high gene dosage never restored growth of the initiator depleted strain. Thus, the elongator tRNA(Met) is much more restricted to participate in the initiation of translation than the initiator tRNA(Met) is restricted to participate in the elongation process. Using the two null mutants, we have identified tRNA(mMet) mutants, which show reduced elongator activity, and tRNA(iMet) mutants, with improved elongator activity in the elongator depleted strain. Also, tRNA(mMet) mutants that function as an initiator tRNA in the initiator depleted strain were identified. From this mutant analysis, we showed that the conserved U/rT at position 54 of the elongator tRNA(Met) is an important determinant for an elongator tRNA. The most important determinant for an initiator was shown to be the acceptor stem and especially the conserved A1.U72 base-pair. Mutant tRNAs, with reduced activity in either process, were investigated for enhanced activity during overproduction of the alpha and beta-subunits of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) or the eukaryotic elongation factor 1 alpha (eEF-1 alpha). The data suggest that the U/rT of the elongator at position 54 is important for eEF-1 alpha recognition and that the acceptor stem of the initiator is important for eIF-2 recognition.
