    Abstract: β-TrCP1 (also known as Fbw1a or FWD1) is the F-box protein component of an Skp1/Cul1/F-box (SCF)-type ubiquitin ligase complex. Although biochemical studies have suggested that β-TrCP1 targets inhibitory subunit of NF-κB(IκB) proteins and β-catenin for ubiquitylation, the physiological role of β-TrCP1 in mammals has remained unclear. We have now generated mice deficient in β-TrCP1 and shown that the degradation of IκBα and IκBβ is reproducibly, but not completely, impaired in the cells of these animals. The nuclear translocation and DNA-binding activity of NF-κB as well as the ability of this transcription factor to activate a luciferase reporter gene were also inhibited in β-TrCP1 – / – cells compared with those apparent in wild-type cells. The subcellular localization of β-catenin was altered markedly in β-TrCP1 – / – cells. Furthermore, the rate of proliferation was reduced and both cell size and the percentage of polyploid cells were increased in embryonic fibroblasts derived from β-TrCP1 – / – mice pared with the corresponding wild-type cells. These results suggest that β-TrCP1 contributes to, but is not absolutely required for, the degradation of IκB and β-catenin and the consequent regulation of the NF-κB and Wnt signaling pathways, respectively. In addition, they implicate β-TrCP1 in the maintenance of ploidy during cell-cycle progression.

    Abstract: The mortality of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is strongly correlated with pulmonary vascular pathology accompanied by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection–triggered immune dysregulation and aberrant activation of platelets. We combined histological analyses using field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses of the lungs from autopsy samples and single-cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to investigate the pathogenesis of vasculitis and immunothrombosis in COVID-19. We found that SARS-CoV-2 accumulated in the pulmonary vessels, causing exudative vasculitis accompanied by the emergence of thrombospondin-1–expressing noncanonical monocytes and the formation of myosin light chain 9 (Myl9)–containing microthrombi in the lung of COVID-19 patients with fatal disease. The amount of plasma Myl9 in COVID-19 was correlated with the clinical severity, and measuring plasma Myl9 together with other markers allowed us to predict the severity of the disease more accurately. This study provides detailed insight into the pathogenesis of vasculitis and immunothrombosis, which may lead to optimal medical treatment for COVID-19.

    Abstract: Matrix assembly and homeostasis in collagen-rich tissues are mediated by interactions with proteoglycans (PGs) substituted with sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The major GAG in cornea is keratan sulfate (KS), which is N-linked to one of three PG core proteins. To ascertain the importance of the carbohydrate chain sulfation step in KS functionality, we generated a strain of mice with a targeted gene deletion in Chst5 , which encodes an N -acetylglucosamine-6- O -sulfotransferase that is integral to the sulfation of KS chains. Corneas of homozygous mutants were significantly thinner than those of WT or heterozygous mice. They lacked high-sulfated KS, but contained the core protein of the major corneal KSPG, lumican. Histochemically stained KSPGs coassociated with fibrillar collagen in WT corneas, but were not identified in the Chst5 -null tissue. Conversely, abnormally large chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate PG complexes were abundant throughout the Chst5 -deficient cornea, indicating an alteration of controlled PG production in the mutant cornea. The corneal stroma of the Chst5 -null mouse exhibited widespread structural alterations in collagen fibrillar architecture, including decreased interfibrillar spacing and a more spatially disorganized collagen array. The enzymatic sulfation of KS GAG chains is thus identified as a key requirement for PG biosynthesis and collagen matrix organization.

    Abstract: The formation of a superfluid when 4 He is cooled below the characteristic lambda transition temperature is accompanied by intricate quantum mechanical phenomena, including the emergence of a Bose condensate. A combination of path integral and semiclassical techniques is used to calculate the single-particle velocity autocorrelation function across the normal-to-superfluid transition. We find that the inclusion of particle exchange alters qualitatively the shape of the correlation function below the characteristic transition temperature but has no noticeable effect on the dynamics in the normal phase. The incoherent structure factor extracted from the velocity autocorrelation function is in very good agreement with neutron scattering data, reproducing the width, height, frequency shift, and asymmetry of the curves, as well as the observed increase in peak height characteristic of the superfluid phase. Our simulation demonstrates that the peak enhancement observed in the neutron scattering experiments below the transition temperature arises exclusively from particle exchange, illuminating the role of Bose-statistical effects on the dynamics of the quantum liquid.

    Blast resistance of CC-NB-LRR protein Pb1 is mediated by WRKY45 through protein–protein interaction

    Abstract: Panicle blast 1 ( Pb1 ) is a panicle blast resistance gene derived from the indica rice cultivar “Modan.” Pb1 encodes a coiled-coil–nucleotide-binding site–leucine-rich repeat (CC-NB-LRR) protein and confers durable, broad-spectrum resistance to Magnaporthe oryzae races. Here, we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying Pb1 -mediated blast resistance. The Pb1 protein interacted with WRKY45, a transcription factor involved in induced resistance via the salicylic acid signaling pathway that is regulated by the ubiquitin proteasome system. Pb1 -mediated panicle blast resistance was largely compromised when WRKY45 was knocked down in a Pb1 -containing rice cultivar. Leaf-blast resistance by Pb1 overexpression ( Pb1 -ox) was also compromised in WRKY45 knockdown /Pb1 -ox rice. Blast infection induced higher accumulation of WRKY45 in Pb1 -ox than in control Nipponbare rice. Overexpression of Pb1-Quad , a coiled-coil domain mutant that had weak interaction with WRKY45, resulted in significantly weaker blast resistance than that of wild-type Pb1 . Overexpression of Pb1 with a nuclear export sequence failed to confer blast resistance to rice. These results suggest that the blast resistance of Pb1 depends on its interaction with WRKY45 in the nucleus. In a transient system using rice protoplasts, coexpression of Pb1 enhanced WRKY45 accumulation and increased WRKY45-dependent transactivation activity, suggesting that protection of WRKY45 from ubiquitin proteasome system degradation is possibly involved in Pb1-dependent blast resistance.
