Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 077]

Termina o prazo para o recebimento de emendas. O deputado Jorge Vianna (PMDB-BA) diz que a Comissão da Ordem Econômica está tentando junto à Mesa da Constituinte, modificar o regimento, para que se aceite emendas após o recebimento do anteprojeto do relator Severo Gomes (PMDB-SP). O relatório final apresentado pelos oito relatores das Comissões Temáticas poderão sofrer emendas. O deputado Nelson Jobim (PMDB-RS) diz que a Mesa abriu prazo de 48 horas, para possibilitar emendas ao substitutivo. Adolfo Oliveira (PL-RJ) afirma que houve distribuição racional e inteligente dos prazos. Em reunião ministerial, José Sarney, presidente da República, lembrou que cabe a Constituinte a construção do Brasil do futuro. Gastone Righi (PTB-SP) concorda com o presidente. José Lourenço (PFL-BA) disse que o presidente confia nos constituintes, estes saberão refletir a opinião do povo brasileiro. Ulysses Guimarães (PMDB-SP), presidente da Constituinte, achou positiva a manifestação do presidente da República.

Nutrient Enhanced Coastal Ocean Productivity (NECOP). Data report: CTD and hydrographic data, R/V Pelican cruise, April 3-11, 1993

The Nutrient Enhanced Coastal Ocean Productivity (NECOP) Program is a component of NOAA's Coastal Ocean Program. The central hypothesis of this research is: Anthropogenic nutrient inputs have enhanced coastal ocean productivity with subsequent impacts on coastal ocean water quality, living resource yields, and the global marine carbon cycle. The initial study area for this program is the Mississippi/Atchafalaya River Outflow and adjacent Louisiana shelf region.

Yeast screens identify the RNA polymerase II CTD and SPT5 as relevant targets of BRCA1 interaction.

BRCA1 has been implicated in numerous DNA repair pathways that maintain genome integrity, however the function responsible for its tumor suppressor activity in breast cancer remains obscure. To identify the most highly conserved of the many BRCA1 functions, we screened the evolutionarily distant eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae for mutants that suppressed the G1 checkpoint arrest and lethality induced following heterologous BRCA1 expression. A genome-wide screen in the diploid deletion collection combined with a screen of ionizing radiation sensitive gene deletions identified mutants that permit growth in the presence of BRCA1. These genes delineate a metabolic mRNA pathway that temporally links transcription elongation (SPT4, SPT5, CTK1, DEF1) to nucleopore-mediated mRNA export (ASM4, MLP1, MLP2, NUP2, NUP53, NUP120, NUP133, NUP170, NUP188, POM34) and cytoplasmic mRNA decay at P-bodies (CCR4, DHH1). Strikingly, BRCA1 interacted with the phosphorylated RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) carboxy terminal domain (P-CTD), phosphorylated in the pattern specified by the CTDK-I kinase, to induce DEF1-dependent cleavage and accumulation of a RNAPII fragment containing the P-CTD. Significantly, breast cancer associated BRCT domain defects in BRCA1 that suppressed P-CTD cleavage and lethality in yeast also suppressed the physical interaction of BRCA1 with human SPT5 in breast epithelial cells, thus confirming SPT5 as a relevant target of BRCA1 interaction. Furthermore, enhanced P-CTD cleavage was observed in both yeast and human breast cells following UV-irradiation indicating a conserved eukaryotic damage response. Moreover, P-CTD cleavage in breast epithelial cells was BRCA1-dependent since damage-induced P-CTD cleavage was only observed in the mutant BRCA1 cell line HCC1937 following ectopic expression of wild type BRCA1. Finally, BRCA1, SPT5 and hyperphosphorylated RPB1 form a complex that was rapidly degraded following MMS treatment in wild type but not BRCA1 mutant breast cells. These results extend the mechanistic links between BRCA1 and transcriptional consequences in response to DNA damage and suggest an important role for RNAPII P-CTD cleavage in BRCA1-mediated cancer suppression.

Phosphorylation du CTD de l'ARN polymérase II et impact de l'histone H2A.Z sur le positionnement des nucléosomes chez S. cerevisiae

La phosphorylation du domaine C-terminal de l’ARN polymérase II permet à ce complexe protéique d’exécuter la transcription des gènes, en plus de coupler à la transcription des événements moléculaires comme la maturation des ARNm. Mes résultats montrent que même si cette phosphorylation suit un patron similaire à l’ensemble des gènes, il existe des exceptions pouvant être dues à des mécanismes alternatifs de phosphorylation du CTD. Le présent ouvrage s’intéresse également au rôle qu’occupe la variante d’histone H2A.Z dans l’organisation de la chromatine. Des études précédentes on montré que le positionnement de certains nucléosomes le long de l’ADN serait influencé par H2A.Z et aurait une influence sur la capacité de transcrire les gènes. Par une approche génomique utilisant les puces à ADN, j’ai cartographié l’impact de la délétion de H2A.Z sur la structure des nucléosomes. Enfin, des résultats intéressants sur la dynamique d’incorporation de H2A.Z à la chromatine ont été obtenus.

P-077. Myxoma of bone. Review of 17 cases

Myxoma of bone (fibromyxoma) is a slowly growing, locally invasive tumor that almost always occurs in the facial bones. The tumor has a potential to recur, but does not metastasize. The lesion is usually painless but causes slowly progressive swelling, sometimes resulting in severe facial deformity. Aim: Review of myxoma of bone experience in two institutions. Methods: Retrospective chart review of all patients with diagnose of myxoma/fibromyxoma of bone identified in the tumor registry of two referral cancer centers: Hospital Erasto Gaerntner (HEG), Curitiba, PR Brazil and University of Sao Paulo (UNESP), Aracaatuba Campus, Sao Paulo, SP Brazil. We reviewed the age, sex, ace, presenting symptoms, topography of lesion and treatment. Results: From January 1972 to July 2000 we found 17 patients from both institutions that met the diagnostic criteria; 15 from HEG and two from UNESP. The median age was 32 years (range 10-55 years). Eleven patients were male, 14 were white and three were black. Only three patients presented with local pain, the remaining were free of symptoms, presenting only with local tumor. The tumor affected the maxilla in 11 patients (six on the right), the mandible in five and the zygomatic bone in one. All patients were treated by excisional surgery and one patient received adjuvant radiation therapy. Nine patients needed reconstruction after the tumor excision. Five of them were reconstructed with local soft tissue flaps; two received iliac crest autologous bone graft; and two had a microvascularized autologous fibula graft. Conclusion: The myxoma of bone in our experience is a rare tumor and occurs more frequently in the maxilly bone in young males. These findings are consistent with the literature data.
