Muscleblind (Mbl) is an evolutionarily conserved family of proteins involved in many aspects of RNA metabolism, including alternative splicing. Disruption of Muscleblind in several animals lends to a variety of defects and disease, including the multi-systemic disorder Myotonic Dystrophy (DM). Though much is known about the involvement of Muscleblind in DM, there is much basic knowledge of the protein's function to be discovered. We approach this problem by exploring the functional conservation of a diverse subset of Muscleblind homologs. The functions of Muscleblinds from a basal metazoan, Trichoplax adhaerens, a primitive chordate, Ciona intestinalis, and the model organisms, Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans were compared to human Muscleblind-like (MBNL). The zinc finger RNA-binding domains are the most conserved region between homologs, suggesting a conserved role in RNA binding and splicing regulation. To test this, we used splicing reporter assays with validated human MBNL-regulated mini-genes and performed RNA sequencing experiments in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Additionally, we accessed the subcellular localization of the homologs to determine conservation of extra-nuclear functions. Reporter assays in HeLa cells showed that the homologs can positively and negatively regulate splicing. Our RNA-seq experiments led us to discover hundreds of endogenously regulated splicing events, including the identity of the transcripts, direction of splicing regulation, types of splicing events, and the magnitude of alternate exon inclusion in the spliced mRNAs. Additionally, we identified a spectrum of splicing events, from those uniquely regulated by a single Muscleblind, to events regulated by all Muscleblinds, and, characterized the variation in splicing activity that exists between homologs. A subset of events regulated by mammalian Muscleblind were oppositely regulated by non-mammalian homologs. Muscleblinds show nuclear-cytoplasmic localization, which suggests conservation in extra-nuclear functions. In conjunction with exon and intron sequences, this information provides a future tool to discover conserved and novel RNA regulatory elements used by diverse Muscleblinds to regulate splicing and in putative cytoplasmic functions. These data could also be used to determine functionally important residues in Muscleblind proteins and help us better understand the protein family.

Habberfield, Michael William. "Functional connectivity for wildlife populations across spatially complex landscapes." Thesis, State University of New York at Buffalo, 2016. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10163822.
Full textIntegrating animal movement information with the spatial analysis of landscape structure is critical for restoring biological communities in spatially-structured landscapes. This integration can be accomplished by focusing on functional connectivity—a landscape’s potential for the movement of organisms among resource patches—in relation to the spatial and structural connectivity of landscape elements. I carried out three investigations in order to examine how landscape structure interacts with the ecological factors associated with animal movement processes, and thereby produce actionable outcomes for the restoration of wildlife populations. This work combined population- and individual-level data of dispersing wildlife to better resolve the influence of spatial structure on functional connectivity. First, I used a meta-analysis to quantify the relationship between structural and functional connectivity for a broad scope of animal species. Second, I assessed the influence of landscape position and habitat density on colonization, movement, and population dynamics of wood frogs (Lithobates sylvatica) within a network of restored vernal pools. Third, I experimentally evaluated dispersal and habitat selection of green frogs (Lithobates clamitans) within this vernal pool system.
The meta-analysis demonstrated that universal scaling relationships of species and the landscapes they are moving through interact as key drivers mediating the level of functional connectivity afforded to wildlife by structural connectivity. Mark-recapture data revealed rapid colonization of the restored vernal pool network by wood frogs, with subsequently moderate levels of frog movement among neighboring pools. Local pool density interacted with the colonization process and terrestrial habitat availability to limit wood frog productivity within a pool cluster. Experimental dispersal data for green frogs artificially translocated within the pool network showed key differences between movement in familiar and novel environments. Differing movement behaviors and habitat selection patterns indicated that a habitat patch for this species is on the scale of a pool cluster rather than an individual pool. Together, the observed spatial dynamics of these vernal pool amphibians contribute a framework for improving amphibian dispersal modeling, potential responses to rapid environmental changes, and predicting colonization and subsequent population dynamics in restored systems. The results of this dissertation improve our understanding of how spatial structure interacts with organism-specific factors to produce observed patterns of functional connectivity.

Full textFlaviviruses are a diverse group of emerging arboviruses capable of infecting an extraordinarily broad range of vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Nearly half of the viruses in this rapidly expanding genus have been reported to be pathogenic for humans, as well as other vertebrates. The spectrum of human disease includes asymptomatic and febrile illnesses, rash, arthralgia, encephalitis and hemorrhagic fever. The recent outbreak of Zika virus (ZIKV) has uncovered pathology in the form of microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome, cementing the importance of flaviviruses as emerging human pathogens. All vector-borne flaviviruses studied thus far have to overcome type I interferon (IFN) antiviral responses in order to replicate and cause disease in vertebrates. The non-structural protein NS5 is a potent and specific antagonist of IFN signaling for human pathogenic flaviviruses such as dengue virus (DENV), yellow fever virus (YFV), West Nile virus (WNV), and tick-borne encephalitis viruses (TBEVs). Intriguingly, each of these viruses exhibits different mechanisms of IFN antagonism, highlighting the complicated evolutionary nature of flaviviruses. This thesis work presents novel insights into the NS5-mediated antagonism of IFN signaling for several underexamined flaviviruses. Notably, all NS5 proteins examined were able to inhibit IFN-induced gene expression in a mammalian system, indicating a functional conservation of IFN antagonism for flavivirus NS5 proteins. However, mechanistically NS5 function was diverse. Of great interest, ZIKV NS5 bound to the human, but not mouse, IFN-regulated transcriptional activator STAT2 and targeted it for proteasomal degradation. This phenomenon may explain the requirement for IFN deficiency in order to observe ZIKV pathogenesis in mice. Furthermore, the mechanism of ZIKV NS5 resembles that of DENV NS5, but not that of its closer relative Spondweni virus (SPOV). However, unlike DENV NS5, ZIKV NS5 did not require the E3 ubiquitin ligase UBR4 to induce STAT2 degradation. Consequently, flavivirus NS5 proteins exhibit a remarkable functional convergence in IFN antagonism, albeit by virus-specific mechanisms. The potent antagonism of human IFN responses by neglected flaviviruses such as SPOV and Usutu virus (USUV), coupled with similar ecologies to that of known human flavivirus pathogens, suggests their potential for broad emergence into the human population.
