Disease relevance of Myl1

 

High impact information on Myl1

  • Two loci have been characterized in the mouse Mus musculus, which are homologous to the mRNAs encoding myosin light chains MLC1F and MLC3F, two proteins with a common -COOH terminal sequence [6].
  • Genetic information specific for the N-terminal sequences is encoded in four exons, at 3.5 and 14.3 kb for MLC1F, and 3.8 and 4.5 kb for MLC3F, upstream of the first common exon [6].
  • The pseudogene is not genetically linked to the functional MLC1F/MLC3F locus in the genome of Mus musculus [6].
  • One of these loci is an intronless pseudogene, absent from the mouse species Mus spretus; alterations in its nucleotide sequence preclude it from generating a functional MLC1F or MLC3F [6].
  • Homozygous mutants had no circulating or atrial ANP, and their blood pressures were elevated by 8 to 23 millimeters of mercury when they were fed standard (0.5 percent sodium chloride) and intermediate (2 percent sodium chloride) salt diets [7].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Myl1

  • Expression of extracellular ligand-binding domain of murine guanylate cyclase/atrial natriuretic factor receptor cDNA in Escherichia coli [8].
  • Recent studies have suggested that inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate-receptor (IP3R)-mediated Ca2+ release plays an important role in the modulation of excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) in atrial tissue and the generation of arrhythmias, specifically chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) [9].
  • Mice made obese with gold thioglucose developed cardiac hypertrophy associated with increases in ANP in atrial tissue and plasma [10].
  • Since a bovine brain ganglioside mixture (Cronassial) has been extensively studied for its effect on peripheral diabetic neuropathy, a group of diabetic mice was treated throughout the sixth month with this drug (10 mg/kg/day i.p.). The ganglioside treated animals showed a marked recovery of atrial function and cardiac NE concentration [11].

Associations of Myl1 with chemical compounds

  • The NH2-terminal region of MLC1A/MLC1emb, thought to be involved in the actomyosin interaction, shows conservation with MLC1V but not with MLC1F suggesting a shared functional domain in these cardiac isoforms [19].
  • Effect of native and synthetic atrial natriuretic factor on cyclic GMP [20].
  • Reduced plasma epinephrine and corticosterone levels and adrenal medullary EGR-1 protein levels in CRH knockout versus WT mice during stress indicate that the HPA axis plays a crucial role in regulation of the PNMT gene expression in these organs.Cardiac atrial PNMT gene expression with stress is also dependent on intact HPA axis [21].
  • 3. Mean arterial pressure and atrial, LV and RV mass were greater in ANP-/- mice than in ANP+/+ mice fed the basal salt diet [22].
  • We confirm this intracaveolar localization by stereoimaging colloidal gold-labeled antibody to the prohormone in electron micrographs of glutaraldehyde/osmium tetroxide-fixed positively stained atrial thin sections [23].
 

Physical interactions of Myl1

  • The membrane-bound form of guanylate cyclase/atrial natriuretic factor receptor (GC/ANF-R) is a 135 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein which binds ANF with high affinity [8].
 

Regulatory relationships of Myl1

  • Furthermore, during the course of ANF purification, the ANF-induced increase of cGMP production by kidney cells paralleled the heightened specific natriuretic activity of the atrial factor [20].
  • However, GLUT4 but not vp165 is additionally localised in the regulated secretory pathway in atrial cardiomyocytes [24].
  • Endothelin-1-induced arrhythmogenic Ca2+ signaling is abolished in atrial myocytes of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate(IP3)-receptor type 2-deficient mice [9].
  • 1. Peak outward K+ current densities are attenuated significantly in atrial myocytes isolated from P15 and adult Kv2.1N216Flag-expressing animals and in P15 cells exposed to AsODNs targeted against either Kv1.5 or Kv2 [25].
  • Phospholamban gene transcript levels are much lower in murine atria as compared to murine ventricles and this reduced phospholamban expression has been suggested to result in enhanced atrial contractile parameters [26].
 

Other interactions of Myl1

  • In contrast, the cardiac MLC1A mRNA is initially more abundant than that encoding the skeletal MLC1F isoform [13].
  • However, although left-sided identity is later maintained by Pitx2 genes, we found that Pitx2c null embryos have normal left-biased expression of alpha-skeletal actin and MLC3F [1].
  • An additional 47 backcross progeny from a cross between C57BL/10ScSn and B10.L-Lshr/s mice were examined for the cosegregation of Myl-1 and Vil RFLPs with Lsh phenotypic differences [27].
  • Changes in atrial volume and ECF translocation and ANP secretion were positively correlated [17].
  • The rostrocaudal positional gradient of transgene expression documented for MLC1F transgenic mice (Donoghue, M., J. P. Merlie, N. Rosenthal, and J. R. Sanes. 1991. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 88:5847-5851) is not seen in MLC3F transgenic mice [12].
