It has opened up the possibility to study structures of complex viruses and virus cell interactions in a frozen\, hydrated state\, thereby preserving biological features in near native conditions. Employing this technical approach\, we determined the structure of the rabies virus ribonucleoprotein in intact virus particles to 15Å resolution and demonstrated morphological differences to the related vesicular stomatitis virus. Employing murine leukaemia virus as a model system\, we elucidated structural changes of Env during interaction with host cells\, demonstrating an elongation of the protein when in contact with the host cell. Lastly\, the experimental systems needed to study virus host interactions by CET will be discussed based on our work with bovine viral diarrhoea virus.  \n* Dr. Riedel will be giving this talk online via Zoom.

SUMMARY:ASRC-CCNY Seminar Series in Biochemistry\, Biophysics and Biodesign: Stephen Burley\, Rutgers\, The State Univ. of New Jersey
DESCRIPTION:ASRC – City College of New York Seminar in Biochemistry\, Biophysics & Biodesign \nSEMINAR LOCATION:\nASRC Main Auditorium\, 85 Saint Nicholas Terrace\nThe speaker will be giving this talk in person in the ASRC Main Auditorium. Non-CUNY attendees need to register in advance; please see details below.* \nTHIS SEMINAR MAY ALSO BE VIEWED REMOTELY VIA ZOOM:\nhttps://gc-cuny.zoom.us/j/91637964386\nMeeting ID:  916 3796 4386\nPasscode:  asrc+ccny \nProtein Data Bank: From Two Epidemics to the Global Pandemic to mRNA Vaccines and Paxlovid\nAbstract    Structural biologists around the world and the Protein Data Bank (PDB) played decisive roles in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. This talk will explain how global three-dimensional (3D) biostructure data was turned into global knowledge\, allowing scientists and engineers around the world to understand the inner workings of coronaviruses and develop effective countermeasures against SARS-CoV-2.\nState-of-the-art mRNA vaccines\, initially designed with guidance from single-particle cryoelectron microscopy structures of the SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV Spike Proteins\, benefited more than five billion individuals around the world by preventing viral infections entirely or significantly reducing morbidity and mortality. Structure-guided drug discovery efforts at Pfizer\, first initiated in the 2000s in response to the SARS-CoV epidemic and reactivated in 2020 early in the global pandemic\, yielded nirmatrelvir—a potent\, orally-bioavailable\, covalently-acting\, peptidomimetic inhibitor of the SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease. This targeted antiviral drug received Emergency Use Authorization from the United States Food and Drug Administration in December 2021\, less than two years following public release of the viral genome sequence. It is used clinically for the treatment of acute SARS-CoV-2 infections in a fixed dose combination with ritonavir and sold under the brand name Paxlovid.\nBolstered by open access to research data generated with public and private monies\, particularly 3D structures of coronavirus proteins archived in the PDB\, basic and applied researchers made a difference when the world desperately needed them to succeed. To underscore the importance of these contributions\, I quote Dr. Anthony Fauci\, former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease\, “Show me a person who’s vaccinated\, got infected\, took Paxlovid and died. I can’t find anybody.” \n* Dr. Burley will be giving this talk in-person. Participants have the option to view either online or from the ASRC Main Auditorium.

Kenter\nProfessor\, Dept. of Microbiology & ImmunologyUniversity of Illinois College of Medicine\, Chicago\, IL\nV(D)J recombination in the 3D nucleus of pro-B cells \nAbstract    Progenitor B cells in the bone marrow develop a diverse antibody receptor repertoire to provide protection against a wide range of antigens and pathogens in the periphery. Each mature B cell has a unique Ig receptor\, created via V(D)J recombination through an ordered set of rearrangements. One of the ~100 functional Igh locus VH genes\, spread over 2.4 Mb must recombine with a rearranged DJH element\, which is itself assembled from one of 8-12 DH and one of 4 JH gene segments in each pro-B cell.  V gene rearrangement occurs at very different intrinsic frequencies\, yielding only quasi-random Igh repertoires in pro-B cells. Examination of V germline transcript expression\, accessibility\, transcription factor (TF) binding\, RSS quality\, and the epigenetic landscape has shown that no single- or combination of variables accounts for unequal V gene usage and has left unresolved the mechanism regulating V gene choice.  V(D)J recombination efficiency is predicated on two defining features of the locus in chromatin. First\, the Igh locus undergoes chromatin contraction in primary pro-B cells as detected by 3D DNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analyses and chromatin conformation capture (3C)-based studies\, and this is mediated by cohesin mediated loop extrusion. Absence of contraction leads to loss of V->DJ rearrangement among the distal VH genes.  Second\, radial repositioning of the Igh locus from the repressive nuclear lamina to locations in the nuclear center is correlated with effective locus function in pro-B cells.  We have deleted a highly transcribed VH gene\, located in Igh Site I\, in mice and find altered VH gene usage\, reduced V->DJ rearrangements and Ig gene transcription suggesting an overall impairment of Igh locus function. However\, we also observed increased locus contraction that is positively associated with locus function.  To reconcile these findings\, we examined radial position of the Igh locus by 3D DNA FISH and found that the Site I VH gene deleted locus failed to locate to the nuclear center\, exhibited aberrant chromatin conformation and displayed increased H3K27ac modifications indicating dysfunction at multiple levels.  Strikingly\, we also found that the Igh locus associates with nuclear speckles in the nuclear center using a combination of DNA FISH and immuno-FISH. The Igh locus\, deleted for the Site I VH gene fails to associate with nuclear speckles and drifts towards the nuclear periphery.  Loss of tethering to nuclear speckles by deletion of a highly transcribed VH gene indicates that radial positioning of the Igh locus in the 3D nuclear space is an active process that orchestrates a number of features associated with Igh locus function including V(D)J recombination. \n  \n* Dr. Kenter will be giving this talk via Zoom.

SUMMARY:ASRC-CCNY Seminar Series in Biochemistry\, Biophysics and Biodesign: Anthony Mittermaier\, McGill University
DESCRIPTION:ASRC – City College of New York Seminar in Biochemistry\, Biophysics & Biodesign \nFeeling the Enzymatic Heat: Isothermal Titration Calorimetry as Universal Enzyme Assay \nABSTRACT Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was originally designed for studying host/guest binding interactions but is gaining popularity as general enzyme assay. To characterize enzyme activity\, ITC measures the heat released or absorbed by catalysis in real time\, following the rapid mixing of enzyme and substrate solutions. Since most chemical reactions are either exothermic or endothermic\, ITC can be applied to virtually any enzyme/substrate pair\, without the need to design customized reporter molecules\, to couple the reaction to additional enzymes\, or to perform any post-reaction separation. ITC experiments can be performed under dilute\, physiological solution conditions\, even with opaque samples and require far less enzyme than traditional ITC binding experiments. Our lab has developed an approach for quantitatively modelling ITC peak shapes in order to apply this technique to rapid reactions that take place on the seconds or tens of seconds timescales. Building on this advance\, we have developed a suite of new ITC-based methods that rapidly yield the affinity and the mode of inhibitor binding\, product inhibition\, and the full kinetic profiles of Bi-substrate enzymes. Recently\, we have turned our attention to covalent inhibitors\, which form chemical bonds with their targets. They represent a highly promising new frontier of drug development but are challenging to characterize since they generally follow multi-step inhibition mechanisms. We have developed an ITC experiment that quantifies covalent inhibitor activity with greater detail than existing methods\, further highlighting the versatility of the calorimetric approach. \n* Dr. Mittermaier will be giving this talk via Zoom.

SUMMARY:ASRC-CCNY Seminar Series in Biochemistry\, Biophysics and Biodesign: Brian Kelch\, Univ. of Massachusetts\, Chan Medical School
DESCRIPTION:ASRC – City College of New York Seminar in Biochemistry\, Biophysics & Biodesign \n  \n\nPeering under the hood of Nature’s macromolecular machines: motors\, rings\, springs and things\n\nAbstract The Kelch Lab studies how large macromolecular machines function\, focusing on the machinery underlying DNA replication and virus assembly. The replication machinery copies DNA with both high-speed and high-fidelity due to a circular sliding clamp to physically tether the DNA polymerase to the DNA. This ring-shaped sliding clamp requires a complicated ATPase machine called a Clamp Loader so that it can be correctly installed onto DNA. The Kelch lab studies the detailed mechanisms of clamp loading using a combination of structural biology\, biochemistry and genetics. The clamp loader functions as a pentameric ATPase switch that uses a multi-step mechanism to place the sliding clamp onto DNA. \nThe second part of my talk will focus on the machinery underlying virus function\, which provides a fascinating example of self-assembly into a multi-partite molecular machine. Our studies of thermophilic viruses have revealed novel principles underlying virus stability and capacity. We also have revealed the mechanism of a molecular motor that is a pentameric ATPase similar to the clamp loader\, but acts as a powerful and processive motor instead of a switch. I will discuss basic principles for ATPase function gleaned from our comparison of these two similar but distinct ATPase machines. \n* Dr. Kelch will be giving this talk in-person. Participants have the option to view either online or from the ASRC Main Auditorium.

The voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) serves as a mitochondrial gatekeeper\, a channel that controls the flux of ions\, including Ca2+\, nucleotides\, and metabolites across the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM)\, and also as a key protein in mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. Thus\, VDAC1 stands at the crossroads between mitochondrial energy production and metabolism\, Ca2+ homeostasis\, apoptosis\, and other cell stress-associated processes. The location at the interface between the cytosol and mitochondria\, positions VDAC1 to serve as a hub protein\, and the interactions with over 100 proteins allow the molecule to mediate and regulate the integration of mitochondrial functions with cellular activities. Apoptotic signals cause mitochondrial membrane permeability changes\, which allow the release of apoptogenic proteins. However\, it remains unclear how these apoptotic initiators cross the OMM and are subsequently released into the cytosol to activate apoptosis. \nRecently\, we demonstrated that induction of apoptosis leads to VDAC1 overexpression and oligomerization regardless of the cell type\, apoptosis inducer used\, that all affect the mitochondria\, yet acting via different mechanisms. Accordingly\, we proposed a new concept for apoptosis induction by which apoptosis inducers\, stress\, or diseases state\, induce VDAC1 overexpression\, and thereby shift the equilibrium between monomeric and oligomeric states. This promotes the formation of a large channel within the VDAC1 homo-oligomer\, which then acts as a conduit for pro-apoptotic protein release and subsequent apoptosis. Oligomeric VDAC1 is also at the nexus of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) release and is implicated in impairing the innate immune system because the mtDNA fragments released into the cytosol trigger type-Ι interferon signaling and inflammation. Moreover\, we have demonstrated that overexpression of VDAC1 is a common threat in diabetes\, and in neurodegenerative\, cardiac\, and autoimmune diseases. In addition\, others have demonstrated associations between VDAC1 overexpression and oligomerization\, and acute liver injury\, rheumatoid arthritis\, spinal cord injury\, and COVID-19. Thus\, inhibiting VDAC1 overexpression and/or oligomerization represents an effective strategy to treat these diseases. With the perception of VDAC1 as an innovative target for the control of dysregulated cell metabolism\, inflammation\, and programed cell death associated with various diseases\, we have developed the new VDAC1-interacting molecules\, VBIT-4 and VBIT-12. These molecules prevent VDAC1 oligomerization\, cell death\, mitochondrial dysfunction\, and inflammation and abolish the mpathophysiology of various diseases as demonstrated in mouse models for type-2-diabetes\, lupus\, colitis\, Alzheimer’s disease\, acute liver injury\, spinal cord minjury\, and COVID-19. Our findings implicate VDAC1 as the link between mitochondrial dysfunction and a wide range of diseases\, and place it at the crossroads between metabolism\, cell survival\, cell death\, and inflammation. \nSpeaker info: \nDr. Varda Shoshan-Barmatz is Professor of Molecular Physiology at Ben-Gurion University in Israel and received her Ph.D. from the Weizmann Institute of Science and did post-doctoral studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and at the University of Toronto.
