Post-translational modification and regulation of oxophytodienoate reductase 3 (OPR3) (Band 14)

By: Sally Victoria Weiss

Oxophytodienoic acid reductases (OPRs) are flavoenzymes closely related to Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) from Saccharomyces. The physiological role of plant OPRs could only be clarified for OPR3: OPR3 from tomato and Arabidopsis reduce the double bond of the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group of (9S,13S)-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA), the precursor of the phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA). OPR3 is therefore an important step for JA biosynthesis and the following JA-triggered defensive and developmental adaptations of the plant. Since the production of phytohormones, including JA, is regulated in an extremely time- and tissue specific manner, the regulatory step of JA-biosynthesis was sought. The conversion of OPDA by OPR3 was proposed as the rate-limiting step in biosynthesis as OPR3 turned out to form a self-inhibiting dimer when crystallized. In the OPR3 crystal, the L6-loop from each protomer reaches into the active site cavity of the other protomer. The dimerization-dependent block of the active site provides a hypothetical mechanism for the regulation of OPR3 activity. Interestingly, two sulfate ions were enclosed in the interacting site of the protomers, suggesting that the dimer might be stabilized in vivo by reversible sulfation or phosphorylation of the tyrosine 364(SlOPR3) or 365 (AtOPR3), respectively. The role of this hypothesized sulfation/phosphorylation was subject of this study. Neither sulfation nor phosphorylation of Y365 could be detected by mass spectrometry. Hence, studies were continued with an in vitro approach where OPR3 was expressed with sulfotyrosine incorporated co-translationally at position 365 (Y365SY). Biochemical characterization led to contradictory results: On the one hand, interaction strength of Y365SY was unaltered in comparison to wild-type OPR3, while on the other hand, activity of Y365SY was reduced. Closer examination indicated that substrate binding or product release was reduced in Y365SY. These changes could be traced back to the additional charge of the SO42—ion, which leads to a narrowing of the entrance to the active site cavity. With this finding, the proposed regulating mechanism by sulfation/phosphorylation is still valid, but independent from dimerization. In order to link this potential regulatory mechanism with a post-translational modification in vivo, an untargeted screen was performed, in which OPR3 was expressed as a fusion protein with a promiscous biotin ligase (BioID2). With this method, potentially interacting proteins were biotinylated in vivo and subsequently isolated and analyzed by MS/MS. Many candidate proteins were identified for OPR3, including kinases and phosphatases. Additionally, OPR1, OPR2 and OPR4 from Arabidopsis were also expressed as BioID2 fusion proteins in order to clarify their physiological role. The most promising results were obtained for OPR4, which was found to be association with stress granule and P-body proteins.

Subversive Expectations

Performance Art and Paratheater in New York, 1976-85

By: Sally Banes

The rise of performance art as chronicled by renowned critic Sally Banes. Her approach to the complex matrix of art, community, and culture draws on histories and theories of painting, photography, dance, theater, and folklore. Her vivid descriptions and provocative interpretations fill a gap in the history of contemporary performance--where the avant-garde met the mainstream.

Adolescents and Their Families

Paths of Ego Development

By: Stuart T. Hauser,Sally Isbell Powers,Gil G. Noam

This book examines the process of ego development in adolescence. It explores the diverse ways in which mothers and fathers subtly direct their teenagers on to one of the four main paths through adolescence, and facilitate or impede their development - and the equally diverse ways in which teenager's interactions with their parents may affect the parents. Throughout, choices of real children and parents are presented - some happy and successful, others troubled. The book is aimed at those who work professionally with adolescents and their families.

Seneca Falls and the Origins of the Women's Rights Movement

By: Sally McMillen

In a quiet town of Seneca Falls, New York, over the course of two days in July, 1848, a small group of women and men, led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott, held a convention that would launch the woman's rights movement and change the course of history. The implications of that remarkable convention would be felt around the world and indeed are still being felt today. In Seneca Falls and the Origins of the Woman's Rights Movement, the latest contribution to Oxford's acclaimed Pivotal Moments in American History series, Sally McMillen unpacks, for the first time, the full significance of that revolutionary convention and the enormous changes it produced. The book covers 50 years of women's activism, from 1840-1890, focusing on four extraordinary figures--Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucy Stone, and Susan B. Anthony. McMillen tells the stories of their lives, how they came to take up the cause of women's rights, the astonishing advances they made during their lifetimes, and the lasting and transformative effects of the work they did. At the convention they asserted full equality with men, argued for greater legal rights, greater professional and education opportunities, and the right to vote--ideas considered wildly radical at the time. Indeed, looking back at the convention two years later, Anthony called it "the grandest and greatest reform of all time--and destined to be thus regarded by the future historian." In this lively and warmly written study, Sally McMillen may well be the future historian Anthony was hoping to find. A vibrant portrait of a major turning point in American women's history, and in human history, this book is essential reading for anyone wishing to fully understand the origins of the woman's rights movement.
