“…The bZIP60 mRNA shares similar secondary structure with HAC1 and XBP1 mRNA, and they also share a similar splicing mechanism (Figure 4) (Iwata and Koizumi, 2012). Besides being processed conventionally as the mRNA targets of IRE1, which seems conserved in both plants and animals, plant bZIP60 has a unique post-translational modification (Iwata and Koizumi, 2005;Iwata et al, 2008). Plant bZIP60 (unspliced) is synthesized at a low level as a precursor protein, which is anchored in the ER membrane under normal conditions (Figure 4).…”

“…Plant bZIP60 (unspliced) is synthesized at a low level as a precursor protein, which is anchored in the ER membrane under normal conditions (Figure 4). Sensing ER stress by an as yet to be elucidated mechanism, the N-terminal domain of AtbZIP60 is cleaved and translocated to the nucleus (Figure 4) (Iwata and Koizumi, 2005;Iwata et al, 2008Iwata et al, , 2009. In turn, the nuclearlocalized AtbZIP60 forms a transcriptionally active protein complex of approximately 260 kDa to activate the transcription of UPR genes, such as BiP3, via the cis-elements plant-UPR element and ER stress response element (Urade, 2007;Iwata et al, 2009).…”

Virus-induced ER stress and the unfolded protein response

2012

The accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) results in ER stress that triggers cytoprotective signaling pathways, termed the unfolded protein response (UPR), to restore and maintain homeostasis in the ER or to induce apoptosis if ER stress remains unmitigated. The UPR signaling network encompasses three core elements, i.e., PKR-like ER kinase (PERK), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), and inositol-requiring protein-1 (IRE1). Activation of these three branch pathways of the UPR leads to the translation arrest and degradation of misfolded proteins, the expression of ER molecular chaperones, and the expansion of the ER membrane to decrease the load of proteins and increase the protein-folding capacity in the ER. Recently, the essential roles of the UPR have been implicated in a number of mammalian diseases, particularly viral diseases. In virus-infected cells, the cellular translation machinery is hijacked by the infecting virus to produce large amounts of viral proteins, which inevitably perturbs ER homeostasis and causes ER stress. This review summarizes current knowledge about the UPR signaling pathways, highlights two identified UPR pathways in plants, and discuss progress in elucidating the UPR in virus-infected cells and its functional roles in viral infection.

For outdoor sports, waterproof breathable materials are widely used to provide protection from environmental factors like rain and wind. The most important techniques to achieve excellent performance use perfluorinated organic substances, which must be replaced in the near future due to health concerns and their environmental persistency. Printing of textile materials with reactive silicone pastes could be an alternative to introduce water repellency without fluorocarbon finishing. In this work, production of barrier textiles through one-step silicon printing was studied, using a two-component paste with long pot life and a thermal fixation step. Three different knitted fabrics made from micromodal, polyamide/elastin, and cotton/polyester were used as substrates for the printing. The achieved hydrophobic modification of the fabric was analyzed by determination of water shedding angle, water resistance, water retention values, moisture content, air permeability, tensile properties, and infrared spectroscopy. The results indicate several areas of technical application for the modified fabric, such as barrier textiles with permeability control, localized modification of mechanical properties of fabric and garment.

“…Whether the gabbroic bodies are part of the pre -granitic basement or a forerunner of the granitic magmatism is also not clear; this is because, hitherto, few radiometric ages of the gabbroic bodies have been reported. In order to examine the Abukuma granitic magmatism in greater detail, several geochronological studies have been performed mainly in the southern Abukuma Plateau since the 1980s (Shibata and Uchiumi, 1983;Shibata and Tanaka, 1987;Fujimaki et al, 1991;Tanaka et al, 1999;Iwata et al, 2000); the geology of this area has been well surveyed (e.g., Maruyama, 1970Maruyama, , 1972. These studies have provided radiometric ages ranging from 96 to 120 Ma for mainly the older granitic rocks; the results have provided time frame constraints for the age of the Abukuma granitic magmatism.…”

The Abukuma Plateau is one of the major granitic terranes in the Japan Arc. Older granitic rocks (foliated and intermediate), younger granitic rocks (massive and felsic), and minor gabbroic rocks are complexly distributed in this region. In order to examine the cooling histories of the plutons, we have determined four Ar -39 Ar plateau age of and the scarcity of metamorphic minerals in the Utsushiga -take gabbroic body suggest that the hornblende age is not a rejuvenated age but the original cooling age. (3) We were unable to detect any distinct geochronological boundary between the older and younger granitic rocks in the central Abukuma Plateau, in terms of the K -Ar biotite ages.
