Abstract
Promoters short DNA sequences play vital roles in initiating gene transcription. However, it remains a challenge to identify promoters using conventional experiment techniques in a high-throughput manner. To this end, several computational predictors based on machine learning models have been developed, while their performance is unsatisfactory. In this study, we proposed a novel two-layer predictor, called PredPromoter-MF(2L), based on multi-source feature fusion and ensemble learning. PredPromoter-MF(2L) was developed based on various deep features learned by a pre-trained deep learning network model and sequence-derived features. Feature selection based on XGBoost was applied to reduce fused features dimensions, and a cascade deep forest model was trained on the selected feature subset for promoter prediction. The results both fivefold cross-validation and independent test demonstrated that PredPromoter-MF(2L) outperformed state-of-the-art methods.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical acting as a cellular signaling molecule in many different biochemical processes. NO is synthesized from l-arginine through the action of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) family of enzymes, which includes three isoforms: endothelial NOS (eNOS), neuronal NOS (nNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS). iNOS-derived NO has been associated with the pathogenesis and progression of several diseases, including liver diseases, insulin resistance, obesity and diseases of the cardiovascular system. However, transient NO production can modulate metabolism to survive and cope with stress conditions. Accumulating evidence strongly imply that iNOS-derived NO plays a central role in the regulation of several biochemical pathways and energy metabolism including glucose and lipid metabolism during inflammatory conditions. This review summarizes current evidence for the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism by iNOS during inflammation, and argues for the role of iNOS as a metabolic enzyme in immune and non-immune cells.

Abstract
Injury of p16 has been implicated in some cancers. In this paper, we focus on the need for identification of peroxynitrite-dependent nitration sites on p16 with HPLC-MS/MS method. Two mono-nitrated residues Tyr129 and Tyr44 were detected in the course of p16 modification induced by peroxynitrite at relative low doses. As suggested by peptide mapping sequence analysis, Tyr44 was more liable to be nitrated by ONOO(-). Study on the chemical environment of two Tyr residues reveals that steric hindrance may be the structural determinant for the nitration sequence. Through technique of SDS-PAGE, ONOO(-) could induce p16 nitration, even strongly damage the combination of p16 with CDK4, which further influence p16's activity.

Abstract
Tyrosine nitration is an important sequel of cellular signaling induced by reactive oxygen species. Cisplatin is an anti-neoplastic agent that damages the inner ear through reactive oxygen species and by the formation of DNA adducts. This study reveals a correlation between cisplatin-mediated hearing loss and nitroxidative modification of cochlear proteins and is the first to report nitration of Lmo4. Cisplatin induced a dose-dependent increase in hearing loss in Wistar rats. A 10-15-dB decrease in distortion product amplitude and massive loss of outer hair cells at the basal turn of the cochlea was observed 3 days post-treatment after a 16 mg/kg dose. Cisplatin induced nitration of cellular proteins within the organ of Corti, spiral ganglion, and stria vascularis, which are known targets of cisplatin ototoxicity. Nitration of a 76-kDa cochlear protein correlated with cisplatin dose. The nitrated protein was identified as Lmo4 (LIM domain only 4) by MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight) mass spectrometry and confirmed by reciprocal immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting. Co-localization of nitrotyrosine and Lmo4 was particularly high in outer hair cell nuclei after cisplatin treatment. Cochlear levels of Lmo4 were decreased in rats treated with cisplatin. In vitro studies supported the repression of Lmo4 in nitroxidative conditions and the induction of apoptosis upon repression of Lmo4. Inhibition of cochlear protein nitration prevented cisplatin-induced hearing loss. As Lmo4 is a transcriptional regulator that controls the choice between cell survival and cell death, these results support the hypothesis that nitration of Lmo4 influences cisplatin-induced ototoxicity.

Abstract
Mitochondria are the primary locus for the generation of reactive nitrogen species including peroxynitrite and subsequent protein tyrosine nitration. Protein tyrosine nitration may have important functional and biological consequences such as alteration of enzyme catalytic activity. In the present study, mouse liver mitochondria were incubated with peroxynitrite, and the mitochondrial proteins were separated by 1D and 2D gel electrophoresis. Nitrotyrosinylated proteins were detected with an anti-nitrotyrosine antibody. One of the major proteins nitrated by peroxynitrite was carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) as identified by LC-MS protein analysis and Western blotting. The band intensity of nitration normalized to CPS1 was increased in a peroxynitrite concentration-dependent manner. In addition, CPS1 activity was decreased by treatment with peroxynitrite in a peroxynitrite concentration- and time-dependent manner. The decreased CPS1 activity was not recovered by treatment with reduced glutathione, suggesting that the decrease of the CPS1 activity is due to tyrosine nitration rather than cysteine oxidation. LC-MS analysis of in-gel digested samples, and a Popitam-based modification search located 5 out of 36 tyrosine residues in CPS1 that were nitrated. Taken together with previous findings regarding CPS1 structure and function, homology modeling of mouse CPS1 suggested that nitration at Y1450 in an α-helix of allosteric domain prevents activation of CPS1 by its activator, N-acetyl-l-glutamate. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the tyrosine nitration of CPS1 by peroxynitrite and its functional consequence. Since CPS1 is responsible for ammonia removal in the urea cycle, nitration of CPS1 with attenuated function might be involved in some diseases and drug-induced toxicities associated with mitochondrial dysfunction.

Abstract
Gray and white matter structural deficits may accompany type 1 diabetes. Earlier experimental studies have demonstrated neuronal deficits associated with impaired neurotrophic support, inflammation and oxidative stress. In this study we demonstrate in two patients with histories of poorly controlled type 1 diabetes and fatal brain edema of ketoacidosis neuronal deficits associated with a decreased presence of insulin and IGF-1 receptors and accumulation of nitrotyrosin in neurons of affected areas and the choroid plexus. The findings add support to the suggested genesis of T1DM encephalopathy due to compromised neurotrophic protection, oxidative stress, inflammation and neuronal deficits, as demonstrated in T1DM encephalopathy in the BB/Wor-rat.
