Description
Obesity is a risk factor for numerous metabolic disorders; however, not all obese individuals are prone to insulin resistance. The central aim of this study was to identify molecular pathways directly related to insulin resistance independent of BMI in obesity.

- Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
When iron is withdrawn from the growth medium of plants, large changes in gene expression have been observed. A double mutant with T-DNA insertions in the Arabidopsis yellow stripe1-like1 (At4g24120) and yellow stripe3-like (At5g53550) genes shows strong iron-related phenotypes. This study is intended to uncover the gene expression changes that occur in leaves and roots of the double mutant compared to wild type plants.

Description
ADAMs are transmembrane metalloproteases that control cell behavior by cleaving both cell adhesion and signaling molecules. The cytoplasmic domain of ADAMs can regulate the proteolytic activity by controlling the subcellular localization and/or the activation of the protease domain. Here we show that the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 is cleaved and translocates into the nucleus. Preventing this translocation renders the protein incapable of promoting cranial neural crest (CNC) cell migration in vivo, without affecting its proteolytic activity. In addition, the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 regulates the expression of multiple genes in the CNC. This study shows that the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM metalloproteases can perform essential functions in the nucleus of cells and may contribute substantially to the overall function of the protein.

- Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Array (zebrafish)
Description
Domesticated animal populations often show profound reductions in predator avoidance and fear-related behavior compared to wild populations. These reductions are remarkably consistent and have been observed in a diverse array of taxa including fish, birds, and mammals. Experiments conducted in common environments indicate that these behavioral differences have a genetic basis. In this study, we quantified differences in fear-related behavior between wild and domesticated zebrafish strains and used microarray analysis to identify genes that may be associated with this variation.

Description
P. aeruginosa possesses the ability to utilize a wild range of compounds as the sole source of carbon and nitrogen, including proteogenic amino acids. In particular, utilization of L-Asp and L-Asn is insensitive to carbon catabolite repression as strong growth retains in the cbrAB mutants devoid of the essential regulators for the activation of most catabolic genes. Transcriptome analysis and functional characterization were conducted to identify genes that participate in the catabolism, uptake, and regulation of these two amino acids. Through gene knockout and growth phenotype analysis, degradation of L-Asn to L-Asp was shown to be mediated by two asparaginases AsnA and AsnB, whereas only AnsB is required for the deamidation of D-Asn to D-Asp. While D-Asp is a dead-end product, conversion of L-Asp to fumurate is catalyzed by an aspartase AspA as further evidenced by enzyme kinetics. The results from the measurements of promoter-lacZ expression in vivo and mobility shift assays in vitro demonstrated that the asnR and aspR genes encode two transcriptional regulators in response to L-Asn and L-Asp, respectively, for the induction of the ansPA operon and the aspA gene. In addition, exogenous L-Glu also cause induction of the aspA gene, most likely due to its conversion to L-Asp by the aspartate transaminase AspC. Expression of several transporters were also found inducible by L-Asn and/or L-Asp, including AatJQMP for acid amino acids, DctA and DctPQM for C4-dicarboxylates, and PA5530 for C5-dicarboxylates. In summary, a complete pathway and regulation for L-Asn and L-Asp catabolism was established in this study. Cross induction of three transport systems for dicarboxylic acids may provide a physiological explanation for the insensitivity of L-Asn and L-Asp utilization to carbon catabolite repression.

Description
MvaT and MvaU are two redundant xenogeneic silencing proteins of the H-NS family in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Previous studies to investigate the physiological consequences of mvaT and mvaU depletion were hampered by activation of Pf4 prophage in the resulting mutants. In this study, an mvaT mvaU double knockout mutant (PAO△TU) was constructed in a strain of PAO1 (Δpf4) devoid of the Pf4 prophage on the chromosome.Transcriptome analysis by GeneChip (Affymetrix) revealed that over 227 genes were found up-regulated in PAO△TU, including several multi-gene loci for type III and type VI protein secretion systems, O-antigen, exopolysaccharide, pili assembly, and many others of unknown functions.
