Prion diseases are characterized by the accumulation of a pathogenic mis-folded form of a prion protein (PrP) encoded by the Prnpgene in humans. In the present study in zebrafish, two transcripts and the corresponding genes encoding prion proteins, PrP1 and PrP2, related to human PrP have been characterized with a relatively divergent deduced amino acid sequence, but a well preserved overall organization of structural prion pro-tein motifs.

Diapause embryos of the crustaceanArtemia franciscanaexhibit extreme stress tolerance, a property thought to involve molecular chaperones known as small heat shock proteins. To further explore this idea, the struc-ture, function and synthesis of ArHsp22, an Artemiasmall heat shock protein, were characterized.

One of the most challenging questions in modern plant science is how plants regulate their morphological and developmental adaptation in response to changes in their biotic and abiotic environment. A comprehen-sive elucidation of the underlying mechanisms will help shed light on the extremely efficient strategies of plants in terms of survival and propagation.

The vascular network of the brain is formed by the invasion of vascular sprouts from the pia mater toward the ventricles. Following angiogenesis of the primary vascular network, brain vessels experience a maturation pro-cess known as barriergenesis, in which the blood–brain barrier is formed.

PUF proteins regulate both stability and translation through sequence-spe-cific binding to the 3¢ UTR of target mRNA transcripts. Binding is medi-ated by a conserved PUF domain, which contains eight repeats of approximately 36 amino acids each. Found in all eukaryotes, they have been related to several developmental processes.

Several acute lymphoblastic and myelogenous leukemias are correlated with alterations in the human mixed lineage leukemia protein-1 (MLL1) gene. MLL1 is a member of the evolutionarily conserved SET1 family of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferases, which are required for the regula-tion of distinct groups of developmentally regulated genes in metazoans.

Milk provides nutritional, immunological and developmental components for newborns. Whereas identification of such components has been per-formed by targeting proteins and free oligosaccharides, structural and func-tional analyses of the N-glycome of milk glycoproteins are scarce.
