项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This revision application to 5R01 GM084724-06 has been submitted in response to Notice Number NOT-OD-09-058, entitled "NIH Announces the Availability of Recovery Act Funds for Competitive Revision Applications." The application represents a significant expansion of the scope of the original project to investigate the role of O-GlcNAc (O-linked N-acetyglucosamine) glycosylation in learning and memory. Developing an understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie learning and memory stands as one of the central challenges of modern science. Our proposed studies will focus on a carbohydrate modification that plays a central role in this process: O-GlcNAc glycosylation. O-GlcNAc glycosylation is a dynamic, intracellular modification found on proteins involved in gene expression, cell signaling, and synaptic plasticity. A major goal of our work is to develop an understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which this sugar influences neuronal communication and information storage. Long-term memory is widely believed to occur through changes in synapse number and strength during learning. Such changes, termed "synaptic remodeling," require new protein synthesis in dendrites, the branched projections on the cell that conduct nerve impulses from the synapse to the cell body. Blockade of protein synthesis has been shown to inhibit learning and memory, demonstrating a direct functional link between dendritic protein synthesis, synaptic remodeling, and behavior. Recently, we made the exciting discovery that O-GlcNAc glycosylation is required for activity-dependent protein synthesis in dendrites. Here, we will investigate this discovery in greater mechanistic detail to understand how O-GlcNAc glycosylation regulates dendritic protein synthesis and its consequences for synaptic plasticity. In addition, we will probe whether elimination of O-GlcNAc glycosylation in the brain leads to learning and memory deficits in mice. A unique feature of this proposal is the seamless integration of chemistry with challenging neurobiological studies. We believe that the combination of cutting-edge chemical tools with state-of- the-art neurobiological approaches will be necessary to address the complex, fundamental question of how memories are stored. The proposed studies will significantly advance our understanding of the structure-activity relationships of carbohydrates in the brain and reveal new insights into the molecular basis of learning and memory. At the same time, our studies may ultimately impact the development of pharmaceuticals by revealing novel molecular targets and processes for the treatment of cognitive deficits associated with aging, brain injury, mental retardation, and neurodegenerative disease. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: A major goal of this work is to elucidate molecular mechanisms that underlie neuronal communication and hence form the basis of learning and memory. Through the discovery of novel small molecules, proteins and pathways involved in neural communication and function, this work may aid ultimately in the development of new pharmaceuticals designed to improve cognition deficits associated with aging and neurodegenerative disease.
描述(由申请人提供):本修订申请5 R 01 GM 084724 -06已提交,以响应编号为NOT-OD-09-058的通知,标题为“NIH宣布恢复法案资金可用于竞争性修订申请”。“该应用程序代表了原始项目范围的显着扩展,以调查O-GlcNAc(O-连接的N-乙酰葡萄糖胺)糖基化在学习和记忆中的作用。 理解学习和记忆的分子机制是现代科学的核心挑战之一。我们提出的研究将集中在一个碳水化合物修饰,在这个过程中发挥了核心作用:O-GlcNAc糖基化。O-GlcNAc糖基化是在参与基因表达、细胞信号传导和突触可塑性的蛋白质上发现的动态细胞内修饰。我们工作的一个主要目标是了解这种糖影响神经元通信和信息存储的分子机制。长期记忆被广泛认为是通过学习过程中突触数量和强度的变化而发生的。这种变化被称为“突触重塑”,需要树突中新的蛋白质合成,树突是细胞上的分支突起,将神经冲动从突触传导到细胞体。蛋白质合成的阻断已经显示出抑制学习和记忆,证明树突蛋白质合成、突触重塑和行为之间的直接功能联系。最近,我们取得了令人兴奋的发现,O-GlcNAc糖基化是树突中活性依赖性蛋白质合成所必需的。在这里,我们将研究这一发现在更大的机制细节,以了解如何O-GlcNAc糖基化调节树突状蛋白质的合成和突触可塑性的后果。此外,我们还将探讨脑中O-GlcNAc糖基化的消除是否会导致小鼠的学习和记忆缺陷。 该提案的一个独特之处是化学与具有挑战性的神经生物学研究的无缝集成。我们相信,将尖端的化学工具与最先进的神经生物学方法相结合,对于解决记忆是如何储存的这一复杂而基本的问题是必要的。这些研究将大大推进我们对大脑中碳水化合物结构-活性关系的理解,并揭示学习和记忆分子基础的新见解。与此同时,我们的研究可能最终影响药物的开发,揭示新的分子靶点和治疗与衰老,脑损伤,智力低下和神经退行性疾病相关的认知缺陷的过程。 公共卫生关系:这项工作的一个主要目标是阐明神经元通信的分子机制,从而形成学习和记忆的基础。通过发现参与神经通信和功能的新型小分子、蛋白质和通路,这项工作可能最终有助于开发旨在改善与衰老和神经退行性疾病相关的认知缺陷的新药。
