Cytoskeleton (Hoboken) 2021; 78:375-390.

Abstract
In the three-step myofibrillogenesis model, mature myofibrils are formed through two intermediate structures: premyofibrils and nascent myofibrils. We have recently reported that several inhibitors of the Ubiquitin Proteosome System, for example, MG-132, and DBeQ, reversibly block progression of nascent myofibrils to mature myofibrils. In this investigation, we studied the effects of MG132 and DBeQ on the expression of various myofibrillar proteins including actin, myosin light and heavy chains, tropomyosin, myomesin, and myosin binding protein-C in cultured embryonic quail myotubes by western blotting using two loading controls-α-tubulin and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Surprisingly, we found that MG-132 affected the level of expression of GAPDH but DBeQ did not. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) showed no significant effect of MG-132 on GAPDH transcription. Two-dimensional (2D) western blot analyses with extracts of control and MG-132-treated cells using anti-ubiquitin antibody indicated that MG132-treated myotubes show a stronger emitter-coupled logic signal. However, Spot% and Spot volume calculations for all spots from both western blot film signals and matched Coomassie-stained 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the intensity of staining in a spot of ~39 kDa protein is 3.5-fold lower in the gel of MG-132-treated extracts. Mass spectrometry analyses identified the ~39 kDa protein as quail GAPDH. Immunohistochemical analysis of fixed MG-132-treated myotubes with anti-GAPDH antibody showed extensive clump formation, which may be analogous to granule formation by stress response factors in MG132-treated cells. This is the first report on in vivo ubiquitination of GAPDH. This may be essential for the moonlighting (Jeffery, 1999) activity of GAPDH for tailoring stress in myotubes.

Identification of a novel TPM4 isoform transcript and comparison to the expression of other tropomyosin isoforms in bovine cardiac and skeletal muscles. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2021; 12:17-34.

Abstract
In mammals, there are four tropomyosin (TPM) genes (TPM1, TPM2, TPM3, and TPM4) each of which generate a multitude of alternatively spliced mRNAs. TPM isoform diversity in bovine unlike in humans are not well characterized. The purpose of this investigation is to perform an extensive analysis of the expression of both transcripts and corresponding protein of sarcomeric TPMs in bovine strated muscles. We have cloned and sequenced the transcripts of the sarcomeric isoform of the TPM4 gene designated as TPM4α as well as a new splice variant TPM4ε from bovine striated muscles. Additionally, we have determined the expression of various sarcomeric TPM isoforms and TPM4ε in bovine heart and skeletal muscles. Relative expression as well as absolute copy number determination by qRT-PCR suggests that TPM1α expression is significantly higher in bovine cardiac muscle, whereas TPM2α is higher in skeletal muscle. The relative expression of TPM3α in bovine heart and skeletal muscle is very similar. The relative expression of TPM4α and TPM4ε is higher in bovine heart and skeletal muscle, respectively. We have evaluated the protein expression levels of various TPM isoforms by 2D western blot analyses in commercially available protein extracts of heart and skeletal muscles with the CH1 monoclonal antibody against TPM. Protein from each CH1-positive spot was extracted for LC-MS/MS analyses, which show that bovine heart extract contains 91.66% TPM1 and 8.33% TPM2, whereas skeletal muscle extract contains 57% TPM1 and 42.87% TPM2. We have failed to detect the presence of unique peptide(s) for TPM3α, TPM4α, and TPM4ε.

Dube DK, Dube S, Shrestha R, Abbott L, Randhawa S, Muthu V, Fan Y, Wang J, Sanger JM, Sanger JW, Poiesz BJ. Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of TPM transcripts and proteins in developing striated chicken muscles indicate TPM4α is the major sarcomeric cardiac tropomyosin from early embryonic life to adulthood. Cytoskeleton (Hoboken) 2018; 75:437-449.

Abstract
The chicken has been used since the 1980s as an animal model for developmental studies regarding tropomyosin isoform diversity in striated muscles, however, the pattern of expression of transcripts as well as the corresponding TPM proteins of various tropomyosin isoforms in avian hearts are not well documented. In this study, using conventional and qRT-PCR, we report the expression of transcripts for various sarcomeric TPM isoforms in striated muscles through development. Transcripts of both TPM1α and TPM1κ, the two sarcomeric isoforms of the TPM1 gene, are expressed in embryonic chicken hearts but disappear in post hatch stages. TPM1α transcripts are expressed in embryonic and adult skeletal muscle. The sarcomeric isoform of the TPM2 gene is expressed mostly in embryonic skeletal muscles. As reported earlier, TPM3α is expressed in embryonic heart and skeletal muscle but significantly lower in adult striated muscle. TPM4α transcripts are expressed from embryonic to adult chicken hearts but not in skeletal muscle. Our 2D Western blot analyses using CH1 monoclonal antibody followed by mass spectra evaluations found TPM4α protein is the major sarcomeric tropomysin expressed in embryonic chicken hearts. However, in 7-day-old embryonic hearts, a minute quantity of TPM1α or TPM1κ is also expressed. This finding suggests that sarcomeric TPM1 protein may play some important role in cardiac contractility and/or cardiac morphogenesis during embryogenesis. Since only the transcripts of TPM4α are expressed in adult chicken hearts, it is logical to presume that TPM4α is the only sarcomeric TPM protein produced in adult cardiac tissues.

Abstract
Cloning and sequencing of various tropomyosin isoforms expressed in chickens have been described since the early 1980s. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the molecular characterization and the expression of the sarcomeric isoform of the TPM3 gene in cardiac and skeletal muscles from developing as well as adult chickens. Expression of TPM3α was performed by conventional RT-PCR as well as qRT-PCR using relative expression (by ΔCT as well as ΔΔCT methods) and by determining absolute copy number. The results employing all these methods show that the expression level of TPM3α is maximum in embryonic (10-day/15-day old) skeletal muscle and can barely be detected in both cardiac and skeletal muscles from the adult chicken. Our various RT-PCR analyses suggest that the expression of high molecular weight TPM3 isoforms are regulated at the transcription level from the proximal promoter at the 5'-end of the TPM3 gene.
