Biological context of PQBP1

 

Anatomical context of PQBP1

  • Interestingly, the WW domain of Npw38 was found to function as a transcriptional activator in CHO cells using the GAL4 DNA-binding fusion system [15].
  • Interestingly, PQBP-1 also forms nuclear inclusion bodies, which are similar to those nucleated by the protein products of polyglutamine disease genes [16].
 

Associations of PQBP1 with chemical compounds

  • The binding analysis using an oligopeptide-immobilized membrane revealed that the WW domain of Npw38 preferentially recognizes a short proline-rich sequence, PPGPPP, surrounded by an arginine residue, so we named it a PGR motif [17].
  • RESULTS: A missense mutation in PQBP1 was identified which changed the conserved tyrosine residue in the WW domain at position 65 to a cysteine (p.Y65C) [13].
  • Therapy consisted of a diet low in protein from natural foods (daily methionine intake 130-150 mg) and a synthetic amino acid mixture (50 g per day) without cystine and methionine (Xmet, Cys Maxamaid, SHS International Ltd) [18].
 

Physical interactions of PQBP1

  • Conversely, mutant htt does not promote the fibrillogenesis of the polyQ-containing protein NOCT3 or the polyQ-binding protein PQBP1, although these proteins are recruited into inclusions containing mutant htt aggregates in mammalian cells [19].
 

Other interactions of PQBP1

  • Among the genes included within the duplicated region, and particularly those which are outside copy number polymorphisms, we discuss the relationship of FTSJ1, PQBP1 and HDAC6 with the clinical symptoms of our patient [20].
  • The clinical similarity of our family to these patients with mutations in PQBP1, particularly the presence of microcephaly, short stature, and atrial septal defect, prompted examination of this gene [13].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of PQBP1

  • Both health surveys were conducted in 2002 using probability sampling-i.e., time-space sampling (GGMHS) and household probability telephone sampling (SHS) [5].
