'''Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like''', also known as '''ARNTL, Bmal1, or Mop3''', is a [[gene]].

The protein encoded by this gene is a [[basic-helix-loop-helix]] PAS (bHLH-PAS) domain containing protein that forms a heterodimer with a second bHLH-PAS protein, [[CLOCK]], or its ortholog, [[Npas2]]. This complex binds to [[E-box]] response elements<ref name="pmid9576906">{{cite journal |author=Hogenesch JB, Gu YZ, Jain S, Bradfield CA |title=The basic-helix-loop-helix-PAS orphan MOP3 forms transcriptionally active complexes with circadian and hypoxia factors |journal=Proc.

These repressor proteins are translated, and bind in a complex with casein kinase one epsilon<ref name="pmid10775102">{{cite journal |author=Lowrey PL, Shimomura K, Antoch MP, ''et al'' |title=Positional syntenic cloning and functional characterization of the mammalian circadian mutation tau |journal=Science |volume=288 |issue=5465 |pages=483–92 |year=2000 |pmid=10775102 |doi=}}</ref> ([[CSNK1E|Csnk1e]]) and delta ([[CSNK1D|Csnk1d]]).  Next, the entire complex translocates to the nucleus, where it interacts with the Arntl/Clock heterodimer to inhibit its transactivation.  This hypothesis is supported by the observation that point mutants in the Arntl or Clock render them resistant to interaction and repression by Cryptochromes<ref name="pmid16474406">{{cite journal |author=Sato TK, Yamada RG, Ukai H, ''et al'' |title=Feedback repression is required for mammalian circadian clock function |journal=Nat. Genet. |volume=38 |issue=3 |pages=312–9 |year=2006 |pmid=16474406 |doi=10.1038/ng1745}}</ref>.  Transcription of Period and Cryptochrome genes, therefore, is inhibited, the protein levels of Period and Cryptochrome genes drop, and eventually repression is relieved to allow their transcription to build up again.  This  process occurs with a period length of approximately 24 hours.  

Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.<ref name="pmid9144434">{{cite journal |author=Ikeda M, Nomura M |title=cDNA cloning and tissue-specific expression of a novel basic helix-loop-helix/PAS protein (BMAL1) and identification of alternatively spliced variants with alternative translation initiation site usage |journal=Biochem.

'''PTEN''' ('''Phosphatase and Tensin homolog''') '''gene''' is a [[human]] [[gene]] that acts as a [[tumor suppressor gene]], which means that the [[protein]] encoded by this gene helps regulate the cycle of [[cell division]] by keeping cells from growing and dividing too rapidly or in an uncontrolled way. Mutations of this gene cause multiple advanced [[cancer]]s. 

The corresponding '''PTEN protein''' is found in almost all tissues in the body. The PTEN protein modifies lipids (fats) in cells by removing [[phosphate group]]s (clusters of one [[phosphor]]ous and three [[oxygen]] [[atom]]s), making the PTEN protein a type of [[enzyme]] called a [[phosphatase]]. More specifically it is a [[phosphodiesterase]] and an inhibitor of the phospho-[[AKT]] pathway by removing the 3' phosphate group of [[phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate]] (PtdIns (3,4,5)''P''<sub>3</sub>). 

The [[Structural biology|structure]] of PTEN (solved by [[X-ray crystallography]]) reveals that it consists of a [[phosphatase]] domain, and a [[C2 domain]]: the phosphatase domain contains the [[active site]] which carries out the [[enzyme|enzymatic]] function of the protein, whilst the C2 domain allows PTEN to bind to the [[cell membrane|phospholipid membrane]] so it is able to de-phosphorylate (PtdIns (3,4,5)''P''<sub>3</sub>)
 
When the PTEN enzyme is functioning properly, it acts as part of a chemical pathway that signals cells to stop dividing and causes cells to undergo programmed cell death ([[apoptosis]]) when necessary. These functions prevent uncontrolled cell growth that can lead to the formation of tumors. There is also evidence that the protein made by the PTEN gene may play a role in cell movement (migration) and sticking (adhesion) of cells to surrounding tissues. 

PTEN is one of the most commonly lost tumour suppressors in human cancer. During tumor development, mutations and deletions of PTEN occur that inactivate its enzymatic activity leading to increased cell proliferation and reduced cell death. Frequent genetic inactivation of PTEN occurs in glioblastoma, endometrial cancer, prostate cancer, and reduced expression is found in many other tumor types such as lung and breast cancer.

==Related conditions==
PTEN mutation also causes a variety of inherited predispositions to cancer.

[[Cowden syndrome]]: Researchers have found more than 70 [[mutation]]s in the PTEN gene in people with Cowden syndrome. These mutations can be changes in a small number of [[base pairs]] or, in some cases, deletions of a large number of base pairs. Most of these mutations cause the PTEN gene to make a protein that does not function properly or does not work at all. The defective protein is unable to stop cell division or signal abnormal cells to die, which can lead to tumor growth, particularly in the [[breast]], [[thyroid]] or [[uterus]].

Other disorders: Mutations in the PTEN gene cause several other disorders that, like Cowden syndrome, are characterized by the development of noncancerous tumors called [[hamartoma]]s. These disorders include [[Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome]], [[Proteus syndrome]], and [[Proteus-like syndrome]]. Together, the disorders caused by PTEN mutations are called [[PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome]]s, or PHTS. Mutations responsible for these syndromes cause the resulting protein to be nonfunctional or absent. The defective protein allows the cell to divide in an uncontrolled way and prevents damaged cells from dying, which can lead to the growth of tumors.

'''Alpha-synuclein''' is a [[synuclein]] [[protein]] of unknown function primarily found in [[neural tissue]], where it is seen mainly in [[presynaptic]] terminals. It is predominantly expressed in the [[neocortex]], [[hippocampus]], [[striatum]], [[thalamus]], and [[cerebellum]].  It is predominantly neuronal protein, but can also be found in [[glial cells]].

Recent evidence suggests that alpha-synuclein functions as a molecular chaperone in the formation of [[SNARE (protein)|SNARE]] complexes.

Alpha-synuclein is specifically [[Regulation of gene expression|upregulated]] in a discrete population of presynaptic terminals of the songbird brain during a period of song-acquisition-related synaptic rearrangement.<ref>George JM, Jin H, Woods WS, Clayton DF. (1995) Chracterization of a novel protein regulated during the [[critical period]] for song learning in the zebra finch. Neuron 15:361-372. PMID 7646890</ref>

Normally an [[Intrinsically unstructured proteins|unstructured]] soluble protein, alpha-synuclein can aggregate to form insoluble fibrils in pathological conditions characterized by [[Lewy body|Lewy bodies]], such as [[Parkinson's disease]], [[dementia with Lewy bodies]], and [[Multiple System Atrophy|multiple system atrophy]].  Alpha-synuclein is the primary structural component of Lewy body fibrils.  In addition, an alpha-synuclein fragment, known as the non-Abeta component (NAC), is found in amyloid plaques in [[Alzheimer's disease]].

In rare cases of familial forms of [[Parkinson's disease]] there is a mutation in the [[gene]] coding for alpha-synuclein.  Three [[point mutation]]s have been identified thus far: A53T, A30P and E46K.  In addition, triplication of the gene appears to be the cause of Parkinson's disease in another lineage.

[[Antibodies]] against alpha-synuclein have replaced antibodies against [[ubiquitin]] as the gold standard for [[immunostaining]] of Lewy bodies.
