Novel duck reovirus (NDRV), the prototype strain of the species Avian orthoreovirus (ARV), is associated with high mortality in Pekin ducklings. σC is an outer capsid protein encoded by the S1 genome segment of NDRV which mediates attachment to host cells. Our previous studies using immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry found that σC coprecipitated with some host proteins including Translocation-associated membrane protein 1 (TRAM1). However, the interaction between σC and TRAM1 has not been further confirmed experimentally. In this study, we utilized coimmunoprecipitation assays, glutathione S-transferase pull-down, and confocal microscopy to confirm the interaction between σC and TRAM1. In addition, knockdown of TRAM1 using siRNA and overexpression of TRAM1 gene were conducted to explore its effect on virus replication. The result showed that TRAM1 silencing benefits while overexpression inhibits viral replication. This study confirms the important role TRAM1 during NDRV infection which can help develop new approaches for NDRV disease prevention and control.

The UFMylated ribosome-recognition protein SAYSD1 is predominantly expressed in spermatids but is dispensable for fertility in mice.

SAYSVFN domain-containing protein 1 (SAYSD1) is an evolutionarily conserved membrane protein that has recently been identified as a ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (UFM1)-conjugated ribosome-recognition protein that plays a critical role in translocation-associated quality control (TAQC). However, its expression and roles in mammals in vivo remain largely unknown. We found that SAYSD1 is predominantly expressed in round and elongating spermatids and localizes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of mouse testes, but not in differentiated spermatozoa.

SAYSD1 senses UFMylated ribosome to safeguard co-translational protein translocation at the endoplasmic reticulum.

Laboratory of Molecular Biology, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA. Electronic address:

Translocon clogging at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as a result of translation stalling triggers ribosome UFMylation, activating translocation-associated quality control (TAQC) to degrade clogged substrates. How cells sense ribosome UFMylation to initiate TAQC is unclear. We conduct a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screen to identify an uncharacterized membrane protein named SAYSD1 that facilitates TAQC.

Background: We describe a case of a supratentorial ependymoma, zinc finger translocation-associated () fusion positive with extensive synaptophysin immunoreactivity arising from malignant transformation of an ependymoma with clear cell features in a patient with long-term follow-up.

Case Description: A 55-year-old woman presented with seizures and ataxia 15 years after an initial resection of a clear cell ependymoma, Grade 2. Imaging demonstrated an enhancing right paracentral mass and the patient underwent biopsy and resection.

Exosomes-loaded thermosensitive hydrogels for corneal epithelium and stroma regeneration.

Corneal damage forms scar tissue and manifests as permanent corneal opacity, which is the main cause of visual impairment caused by corneal diseases. To treat these diseases, herein, we developed a novel approach based on the exosome derived from induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (iPSC-MSCs) combined with a thermosensitive hydrogel, which reduces scar formation and accelerates the healing process. We found that a thermosensitive chitosan-based hydrogels (CHI hydrogel) sustained-release iPSC-MSC exosomes can effectively promote the repair of damaged corneal epithelium and stromal layer, downregulating mRNA expression coding for the three most enriched collagens (collagen type I alpha 1, collagen type V alpha 1 and collagen type V alpha 2) in corneal stroma and reducing scar formation in vivo.

In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the translocation-associated protein complex (TRAP), also called signal sequence receptor (SSR), includes four integral membrane proteins TRAPα/SSR1, TRAPβ/SSR2, and TRAPδ/SSR4 with the bulk of their extramembranous portions primarily in the ER lumen, whereas the extramembranous portion of TRAPγ/SSR3 is primarily cytosolic. Individually diminished expression of either TRAPα/SSR1, TRAPβ/SSR2, or TRAPδ/SSR4 mRNA is known in each case to lower TRAPα/SSR1 protein levels, leading to impaired proinsulin biosynthesis, whereas forced expression of TRAPα/SSR1 at least partially suppresses the proinsulin biosynthetic defect. Here, we report that diminished TRAPγ/SSR3 expression in pancreatic β-cells leaves TRAPα/SSR1 levels unaffected while nevertheless inhibiting cotranslational and posttranslational translocation of preproinsulin into the ER.
