Structural determinants of DISC function: new insights into death receptor-mediated apoptosis signalling.

Sessler T, Healy S, Samali A, Szegezdi E.Author information Apoptosis Research Centre, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland.AbstractDeath receptors are members of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily characterised by an ~80 amino acid long alpha-helical fold, termed the death domain (DD). Death receptors diversified during early vertebrate evolution indicating that the DD fold has plasticity and specificity that can be easily adjusted to attain additional functions. Eight members of the death receptor family have been identified in humans, which can be divided into four structurally homologous groups or clades, namely: the p75(NTR) clade (consisting of ectodysplasin A receptor, death receptor 6 (DR6) and p75 neurotrophin (NTR) receptor); the tumour necrosis factor receptor 1 clade (TNFR1 and DR3), the CD95 clade (CD95/FAS) and the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor (TRAILR) clade (TRAILR1 and TRAILR2). Receptors in the same clade participate in similar processes indicating that structural diversification enabled functional specialisation. On the surface of nearly all human cells multiple death receptors are expressed, enabling the cell to respond to a plethora of external signals. Activation of different death receptors converges on the activation of three main signal transduction pathways: nuclear factor-κB-mediated differentiation or inflammation, mitogen-associated protein kinase-mediated stress response and caspase-mediated apoptosis. While the ability to induce cell death is true for nearly all DRs, the FAS and TRAILR clades have specialised in inducing cell death. Here we summarise recent discoveries about the molecular regulation and structural requirements of apoptosis induction by death receptors and discuss how this information can be used to better explain the biological functions, similarities and distinguishing features of death receptors.

Functional studies for the TRAF6 mutation associated with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

Fujikawa H, Farooq M, Fujimoto A, Ito M, Shimomura Y.Author information Laboratory of Genetic Skin Diseases Division of Dermatology, Niigata University Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Niigata, Japan.AbstractBACKGROUND: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare condition characterized by hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis and hypodontia. A de novo heterozygous mutation in the tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 gene (TRAF6) was recently identified in a patient with HED, while functional consequences resulting from the mutation remained unknown.

A case-control study of the association between tooth-development gene polymorphisms and non-syndromic hypodontia in the Chinese Han population.

Liu H, Zhang J, Song S, Zhao H, Han D, Feng H.Author information Department of Prosthodontics, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology, Beijing, China.AbstractHypodontia is one of the most common anomalies of human dentition. Recent genetic studies provide information on a number of genes related to both syndromic and non-syndromic forms of hypodontia. Fifty putative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 20 genes that play important roles in tooth development were selected, and a case-control study was conducted in 273 subjects with hypodontia (cases) and 200 subjects without hypodontia (controls). DNA was obtained from samples of whole blood or saliva. Genotyping was performed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). A significant difference was observed, between subjects with non-syndromic hypodontia and controls, in the allele and genotype frequencies of two markers [rs929387 of GLI family zinc finger 3 (GLI3) and rs11001553 of Dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK1)]. Similar results were observed in a subgroup analysis of test subjects (stratified by gender or missing tooth position). However, this analysis showed no significant difference in the haplotype distribution between the controls and the affected subjects. These data demonstrate an association between some SNPs in tooth development-associated genes and sporadic non-syndromic hypodontia in Chinese Han individuals. This information may provide further understanding of the molecular mechanisms of tooth agenesis. Furthermore, these genes can be regarded as candidates for mutation detection in individuals with tooth agenesis.
