    Abstract: Nitric oxide (NO) plays diverse and significant roles in biological processes despite its cytotoxicity, raising the question of how biological systems control the action of NO to minimize its cytotoxicity in cells. As a great example of such a system, we found a possibility that NO-generating nitrite reductase (NiR) forms a complex with NO-decomposing membrane-integrated NO reductase (NOR) to efficiently capture NO immediately after its production by NiR in anaerobic nitrate respiration called denitrification. The 3.2-Å resolution structure of the complex of one NiR functional homodimer and two NOR molecules provides an idea of how these enzymes interact in cells, while the structure may not reflect the one in cells due to the membrane topology. Subsequent all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the enzyme complex model in a membrane and structure-guided mutagenesis suggested that a few interenzyme salt bridges and coulombic interactions of NiR with the membrane could stabilize the complex of one NiR homodimer and one NOR molecule and contribute to rapid NO decomposition in cells. The MD trajectories of the NO diffusion in the NiR:NOR complex with the membrane showed that, as a plausible NO transfer mechanism, NO released from NiR rapidly migrates into the membrane, then binds to NOR. These results help us understand the mechanism of the cellular control of the action of cytotoxic NO.

    Interaction between Telencephalin and ERM Family Proteins Mediates Dendritic Filopodia Formation

    Abstract: Dendritic filopodia are long, thin, actin-rich, and dynamic protrusions that are thought to play a critical role as a precursor of spines during neural development. We reported previously that a telencephalon-specific cell adhesion molecule, telencephalin (TLCN) [intercellular adhesion molecule-5 (ICAM-5)], is highly expressed in dendritic filopodia, facilitates the filopodia formation, and slows spine maturation. Here we demonstrate that TLCN cytoplasmic region binds ERM (ezrin/radixin/moesin) family proteins that link membrane proteins to actin cytoskeleton. In cultured hippocampal neurons, phosphorylated active forms of ERM proteins are colocalized with TLCN in dendritic filopodia, whereas α-actinin, another binding partner of TLCN, is colocalized with TLCN at surface membranes of soma and dendritic shafts. Expression of constitutively active ezrin induces dendritic filopodia formation, whereas small interference RNA-mediated knockdown of ERM proteins decreases filopodia density and accelerates spine maturation. These results indicate the important role of TLCN–ERM interaction in the formation of dendritic filopodia, which leads to subsequent synaptogenesis and establishment of functional neural circuitry in the developing brain.

    A Microfluidic Device for Conducting Gas-Liquid-Solid Hydrogenation Reactions
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) ; 2004

    Abstract: We have developed an efficient system for triphase reactions using a microchannel reactor. Using this system, we conducted hydrogenation reactions that proceeded smoothly to afford the desired products quantitatively within 2 minutes for a variety of substrates. The system could also be applied to deprotection reactions. We could achieve an effective interaction between hydrogen, substrates, and a palladium catalyst using extremely large interfacial areas and the short path required for molecular diffusion in the very narrow channel space. This concept could be extended to other multiphase reactions that use gas-phase reagents such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.
