    Abstract The left-handed Z-DNA is surrounded by right-handed canonical B-DNA, and thus the junction between B- and Z-DNA has been occurred during temporal Z-DNA formation in the genome. The base extrusion structure of the BZ junction may help detect Z-DNA formation in DNAs. Here we describe the BZ junction structural detection by using 2-aminopurine (2AP) fluorescent probe. BZ junction formation can be measured in solution by this method.

    Abstract The molecular basis of Z-DNA recognition and stabilization is mostly discovered via X-ray crystallography. The sequences composed with alteration of purine and pyrimidine are known to adopt Z-DNA conformation. Due to the energy penalty for forming Z-DNA, the small molecular stabilizer or Z-DNA-specific binding protein is required for DNA to adopt Z conformation prior to crystallizing Z-DNA. Here we described the methods ranging from preparation of DNA and Z-alpha protein to crystallization of Z-DNA in detail.

    Abstract ADNP syndrome, involving the ADNP transcription factor of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, is characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Although Adnp-haploinsufficient (Adnp-HT) mice display various phenotypic deficits, whether these mice display abnormal synaptic functions remain poorly understood. Here, we report synaptic plasticity deficits associated with cognitive inflexibility and CaMKIIα hyperactivity in Adnp-HT mice. These mice show impaired and inflexible contextual learning and memory, additional to social deficits, long after the juvenile-stage decrease of ADNP protein levels to ~10% of the newborn level. The adult Adnp-HT hippocampus shows hyperphosphorylated CaMKIIα and its substrates, including SynGAP1, and excessive long-term potentiation that is normalized by CaMKIIα inhibition. Therefore, Adnp haploinsufficiency in mice leads to cognitive inflexibility involving CaMKIIα hyperphosphorylation and excessive LTP in adults long after its marked expressional decrease in juveniles.

    Abstract Visual arrestin (Arr1) terminates rhodopsin signaling by blocking its interaction with transducin. To do this, Arr1 translocates from the inner to the outer segment of photoreceptors upon light stimulation. Mounting evidence indicates that inositol phosphates (InsPs) affect Arr1 activity, but the Arr1-InsP molecular interaction remains poorly defined. We report the structure of bovine Arr1 in a ligand-free state featuring a near-complete model of the previously unresolved C-tail, which plays a crucial role in regulating Arr1 activity. InsPs bind to the N-domain basic patch thus displacing the C-tail, suggesting that they prime Arr1 for interaction with rhodopsin and help direct Arr1 translocation. These structures exhibit intact polar cores, suggesting that C-tail removal by InsP binding is insufficient to activate Arr1. These results show how Arr1 activity can be controlled by endogenous InsPs in molecular detail.
