Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Uses and Limits of MeSH

Manually indexedndash Major topics =gt intelligent filteringndash Pick up things that are not in the titleabstractndash Takes time to add new headings (no MeSH headings

for most recent ~couple of months)ndash People are fallible so some misclassification occursndash Subheadings can be very useful but are less reliable

Strong medical biasndash Good for biomedical searchesndash Not as useful in technical areas agriculture and

plants

MeSH Vocabulary

bull The MeSH controlled vocabulary is a distinctive feature of MEDLINE

bull It imposes uniformity and consistency to the indexing of biomedical literature

bull MeSH terms are arranged in a hierarchical categorized system

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Boolean Logic

bull ORndash Use the OR operator to retrieve documents

that contain at least one of the specified search terms

ndash Use OR when you want to pull together articles on similar subjects

bull NOTndash Use the NOT operator to exclude the

retrieval of terms from your search ndash Be careful with NOT as you can exclude

things you might want

Boolean Logic in PubMed

bull Boolean operators -- AND OR NOT -- must be entered in uppercase letters

bull Boolean operators are processed from left to right

bull Use parentheses to nest terms together so they will be processed as a unit and then incorporated into the overall strategy

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Computational Issues in Statistical Text Retrieval

bull Stop wordsndash Simple words like ldquotherdquo and ldquoandrdquo are not worth scoring

bull Term weightsndash We should weight matches of rare words more heavily than

matches of common wordsbull Stemming and synonyms

ndash Need to stem verbs and plural formsndash May or may not be able to reduce to a normalized set of

synonymsbull Normalizing for length

ndash Donrsquot want to exclude short articles or articles without an abstract

bull All vs all comparison is not feasiblendash 107 articles =gt 1014 comparisons not feasiblendash Compute demands of the task are growing faster than Moorersquos

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont

Phosphorylation of serine S337 of NF-kappa B p50 is critical for DNA binding

Hou S Guan H Ricciardi RP

Microbiology Biochemistry University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia PA 19342

It has been demonstrated that phosphorylation of the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B is required for efficient DNA binding yet the specific phospho-residues of p50 have not been determined In this study we substituted all of the serine and conserved threonine residues in the p50 Rel homology domain and identified three serine residues S65 S337 and S342 as critical for DNA binding without affecting dimerization While substitution with negatively charged aspartic acid at each of these positions failed to restore DNA binding substitution with threonine a potential phospho-acceptor retained DNA binding for residues 65 and 337 In particular S337 in a consensus site for PKA and other kinases was shown to be phosphorylated both in vitro and in vivo Importantly phosphorylation of S337 by PKA in vitro dramatically increased DNA binding of p50 This study shows for the first time that DNA binding ability of NF-kB p50 subunit is regulated through phosphorylation of residue S337 and has implications f o r both positive and negative control of NF-kappa B transcriptiont
