.org), 16.04.2020.BACKGROUND Single high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) measurement is predictive of cardiac events in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD). We aimed to study the prognostic value of serial hs-TnT measurements in stable patients with ACHD. METHODS In total, 602 consecutive patients with ACHD were enrolled in this prospective study (2011-2013). Blood sampling was performed at enrollment and thereafter yearly during scheduled visits, up to 4 years. Hs-TnT, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were measured. The composite primary endpoint was defined as all-cause mortality, heart failure, arrhythmia, hospitalization, cardiac (re)interventions, or thromboembolic events. The relationship between changes in serial hs-TnT and the primary endpoint was studied by joint models with adjustment for repeated NT-proBNP and eGFR. RESULTS In 601 patients (median age, 33 [interquartile range, 25-41] years, 42% women, 90% NYHA I), at least 1 hs-TnT measurement was performed; a mean of 4.3 hs-TnT measurements per patient were collected. After a median follow-up of 5.8 [interquartile range, 5.3-6.3] years, 229 (38.1%) patients reached the primary endpoint. On average, hs-TnT levels increased over time, and more in patients who reached the primary endpoint (P less then 0.001). A 2-fold higher hs-TnT was associated with the primary endpoint (unadjusted hazard ratio, 1.62; 95% confidence interval, 1.44-1.82; P less then 0.001). The association remained after adjustment for repeated eGFR but not when adjusted for repeated NT-proBNP; repeated NT-proBNP remained associated with the primary endpoint. CONCLUSION In stable patients with ACHD, hs-TnT levels increased before the occurrence of an event and repeated hs-TnT was associated with the risk of adverse cardiac events. However, repeated hs-TnT was not superior to repeated NT-proBNP. Applying big-data analytic techniques to brain images from 18,707 individuals is shedding light on the influence of aging on the brain. © 2020, Nyberg and Wåhlin.In Wnt/β-catenin signaling, the transcriptional coactivator β-catenin is regulated by its phosphorylation in a complex that includes the scaffold protein Axin and associated kinases. Wnt binding to its coreceptors activates the cytosolic effector Dishevelled (Dvl), leading to the recruitment of Axin and the inhibition of β-catenin phosphorylation. This process requires interaction of homologous DIX domains present in Dvl and Axin, but is mechanistically undefined. We show that Dvl DIX forms antiparallel, double-stranded oligomers in vitro, and that Dvl in cells forms oligomers typically less then 10 molecules at endogenous expression levels. Axin DIX (DAX) forms small single-stranded oligomers, but its self-association is stronger than that of DIX. DAX caps the ends of DIX oligomers, such that a DIX oligomer has at most four DAX binding sites. The relative affinities and stoichiometry of the DIX-DAX interaction provide a mechanism for efficient inhibition of β-catenin phosphorylation upon Axin recruitment to the Wnt receptor complex. © 2020, Kan et al.Deinococcus radiodurans (DR) survives in the presence of hundreds of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) breaks by efficiently repairing such breaks. RecO, an essential protein for the extreme radioresistance of DR, is one of the major recombination mediator proteins in the RecA-loading process in the RecFOR pathway. However, how RecO participates in the RecA-loading process is still unclear. In this work, we investigated the function of drRecO using single-molecule techniques. We found that drRecO competes with the ssDNA binding protein (drSSB) for binding to the freely exposed ssDNA and efficiently displaces drSSB from ssDNA without consuming ATP. drRecO replaces drSSB and dissociates it completely from ssDNA even though drSSB binds to ssDNA approximately 300 times more strongly than drRecO does. We suggest that drRecO facilitates the loading of RecA onto drSSB-coated ssDNA by utilizing a small drSSB-free space on ssDNA generated by the fast diffusion of drSSB on ssDNA.Thylakoid membranes scaffold an assortment of large protein complexes that work together to harness the energy of light. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ly2874455.html It has been a longstanding challenge to visualize how the intricate thylakoid network organizes these protein complexes to finely tune the photosynthetic reactions. Previously, we used in situ cryo-electron tomography to reveal the native architecture of thylakoid membranes (Engel et al., 2015). Here, we leverage technical advances to resolve the individual protein complexes within these membranes. Combined with a new method to visualize membrane surface topology, we map the molecular landscapes of thylakoid membranes inside green algae cells. Our tomograms provide insights into the molecular forces that drive thylakoid stacking and reveal that photosystems I and II are strictly segregated at the borders between appressed and non-appressed membrane domains. This new approach to charting thylakoid topology lays the foundation for dissecting photosynthetic regulation at the level of single protein complexes within the cell. © 2020, Wietrzynski et al.Notch pathway haploinsufficiency can cause severe developmental syndromes with highly variable penetrance. Currently, we have a limited mechanistic understanding of phenotype variability due to gene dosage. Here, we unexpectedly found that inserting an enhancer containing pioneer transcription factor sites coupled to Notch dimer sites can induce a subset of Notch haploinsufficiency phenotypes in Drosophila with wild type Notch gene dose. Using Drosophila genetics, we show that this enhancer induces Notch phenotypes in a Cdk8-dependent, transcription-independent manner. We further combined mathematical modeling with quantitative trait and expression analysis to build a model that describes how changes in Notch signal production versus degradation differentially impact cellular outcomes that require long versus short signal duration. Altogether, these findings support a 'bind and discard' mechanism in which enhancers with specific binding sites promote rapid Cdk8-dependent Notch turnover, and thereby reduce Notch-dependent transcription at other loci and sensitize tissues to gene dose based upon signal duration.
