General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction methylglyoxal causes formation of advanced glycation end-products on proteins, one of which is Nepsilon-carboxymethyllysine (CEL), which can be detected by immunoblotting whole cell lysates. Control S2 cells show little to no increase in CEL adducts when treated with 1 mM methylglyoxal. They are capable of efficiently detoxifying methylglyoxal. Knockdown of glyoxalase Glo1 causes a detectable impairment of methylglyoxal detoxification activity in vivo, since CEL adducts are clearly increased upon treatment with 1 mM methylglyoxal. In contrast, DJ-1 knockdown causes no detectable increase in CEL adducts compared with control cells, and combined knockdown of DJ-1beta and Glo1 shows no additional phenotype compared with Glo1 knockdown alone Drosophila melanogaster
physiological function using both DJ-1 knockdown in Drosophila cells in culture, and DJ-1beta knock-out flies, no contribution of DJ-1 to survival to methylglyoxal challenge or to accumulation of methylglyoxal protein adducts can be detected Drosophila melanogaster
