The Hfq (Host factor 1) polypeptide is a nucleic acid binding protein involved in the synthesis of many polypeptides. Hfq particularly affects the translation and the stability of several RNAs. In an earlier study, the use of fold recognition methods allowed us to detect a relationship between Escherichia coli Hfq and the Sm topology. This topology was further validated by a series of biophysical studies and the Hfq structure was modelled on an Sm protein. Hfq forms a beta-sheet ring-shaped hexamer. As our previous study predicted a large number of alternative conformations for the C-terminal region, we have determined whether the last 19 C-terminal residues are necessary for protein function. We find that the C-terminal truncated protein is fully capable of binding a polyadenylated RNA (K(d) of 120 pm vs. 50 pm for full-length Hfq). This result shows that the functional core of E. coli Hfq resides in residues 1-70 and confirms previous genetic studies. Using equilibrium unfolding studies, however, we find that full-length Hfq is 1.8 kcal x mol(-1) more stable than its truncated variant. Electron microscopy analysis of both truncated and full-length proteins indicates a structural rearrangement between the subunits upon truncation. This conformational change is coupled to a reduction in beta-strand content, as determined by Fourier transform infra-red. On the basis of these results, we propose that the C-terminal domain could protect the interface between the subunits and stabilize the hexameric Hfq structure. The origin of this C-terminal domain is also discussed.

宿主因子1 (Hfq)多肽是一种核酸结合蛋白,参与多种多肽的合成。Hfq特别影响几种rna的翻译和稳定性。在早期的一项研究中,使用折叠识别方法使我们能够检测大肠杆菌Hfq和Sm拓扑结构之间的关系。通过一系列生物物理研究进一步验证了这种拓扑结构,并以Sm蛋白为模型构建了Hfq结构。Hfq形成β片环状六聚体。由于我们之前的研究预测了c端区域的大量可选构象,我们已经确定了最后19个c端残基对蛋白质功能是否必要。我们发现c端截断的蛋白完全能够结合聚腺苷化的RNA (K(d)为120 pm,而全长Hfq为50 pm)。这一结果表明大肠杆菌Hfq的功能核心位于残基1-70,证实了之前的遗传研究。然而,通过平衡展开研究,我们发现全长Hfq比截断的变体更稳定1.8 kcal x mol(-1)。截断和全长蛋白的电子显微镜分析表明,截断后亚基之间的结构重排。这种构象变化与β -链含量的减少相结合,由傅里叶变换红外测定。基于这些结果,我们提出c端结构域可以保护亚基之间的界面并稳定六聚体Hfq结构。本文还讨论了c端结构域的起源。

In order to estimate the size of the cavity remaining around the heme of the 3A3-microperoxidase 8 (MP8) hemoabzyme, the formation of 3A3-MP8-Fe(II)-nitrosoalkane complexes upon oxidation of N-monosubstituted hydroxylamines was examined. This constituted a new reaction for hemoabzymes and is the first example of fully characterized Fe(II)-metabolite complexes of antibody-porphyrin. Also, via a comparison of the reactions with N-substituted hydroxylamines of various size and hydrophobicity, antibody 3A3 was confirmed to bring about a partial steric hindrance on the distal face of MP8. Subsequently, the influence of the antibody on the stereoselectivity of the S-oxidation of sulfides was examined. Our results showed that MP8 alone and the antibody-MP8 complex catalyze the oxidation of thioanisole by H(2)O(2) and tert-butyl hydroperoxide, following a peroxidase-like two-step oxygen-transfer mechanism involving a radical-cation intermediate. The best system, associating H(2)O(2) as oxidant and 3A3-MP8 as a catalyst, in the presence of 5% tert-butyl alcohol, led to the stereoselective S-oxidation of thioanisole with a 45% enantiomeric excess in favour of the R isomer. This constitutes the highest enantiomeric excess reported to date for the oxidation of sulfides catalyzed by hemoabzymes.

为了估计3a3 -微过氧化物酶8 (MP8)血红素周围残留的空腔的大小,研究了n -单取代羟胺氧化后3a3 -MP8-铁(II)-亚硝基烷烃络合物的形成。这构成了一个新的血红酶反应,是第一个完全表征铁(II)-卟啉抗体代谢复合物的例子。此外,通过与不同大小和疏水性的n -取代羟胺反应的比较,证实抗体3A3在MP8的远端表面产生部分位阻。随后,研究了该抗体对硫化物s氧化立体选择性的影响。我们的研究结果表明,MP8单独和抗体-MP8复合物催化硫代苯甲醚被H(2)O(2)和叔丁基过氧化氢氧化,遵循类似过氧化物酶的两步氧转移机制,涉及自由基-阳离子中间体。最好的体系是将H(2)O(2)作为氧化剂,3A3-MP8作为催化剂,在5%叔丁醇的存在下,导致硫代苯甲醚的立体选择性s氧化,对映体过量45%,有利于R异构体。这构成了迄今为止报道的由血红酶催化的硫化物氧化的最高对映体过量。

Observations of thioredoxin inhibition by cadmium and of a positive role for thioredoxin in protection from Cd(2+) led us to investigate the thioredoxin-cadmium interaction properties. We used calorimetric and spectroscopic methods at different pH values to explore the relative contribution of putative binding residues (Cys32, Cys35, Trp28, Trp31 and Asp26) within or near the active site. At pH 8 or 7.5 two binding sites were identified by isothermal titration calorimetry with affinity constants of 10 x 10(6) m(-1) and 1 x 10(6) m(-1). For both sites, a proton was released upon Cd(2+) binding. One mole of Cd(2+) per mole of reduced thioredoxin was measured by mass spectrometry at these pH values, demonstrating that the two binding sites were partially occupied and mutually exclusive. Cd(2+) binding at either site totally inhibited the thiol-disulfide transferase activity of Trx. The absence of Cd(2+) interaction detected for oxidized or alkylated Trx and the inhibition of the enzymatic activity of thioredoxin by Cd(2+) supported the role of Cys32 at the first site. The fluorescence profile of Cd(2+)-bound thioredoxin differed, however, from that of oxidized thioredoxin, indicating that Cd(2+) was not coordinated with Cys32 and Cys35. From FTIR spectroscopy, we inferred that the second site might involve Asp26, a buried residue that deprotonates at a rather high and unusual pK(a) for a carboxylate (7.5/9.2). The pK(a) of the two residues Cys32 and Asp26 have been shown to be interdependent [Chivers, T. P. (1997) Biochemistry36, 14985-14991]. A mechanism is proposed in which Cd(2+) binding at the solvent-accessible thiolate group of Cys32 induces a decrease of the pK(a) of Asp26 and its deprotonation. Conversely, interaction between the carboxylate group of Asp26 and Cd(2+) at a second binding site induces Cys32 deprotonation and thioredoxin inhibition, so that Cd(2+) inhibits thioredoxin activity not only by binding at the Cys32 but also by interacting with Asp26.

观察到硫氧还蛋白对镉的抑制作用以及硫氧还蛋白对Cd(2+)的保护作用,使我们研究了硫氧还蛋白-镉的相互作用特性。我们在不同pH值下使用量热法和光谱法来探索活性位点内或附近的推定结合残基(Cys32、Cys35、Trp28、Trp31和Asp26)的相对贡献。在pH为8或7.5时,通过等温滴定量热法鉴定出两个结合位点,亲和常数分别为10 × 10(6) m(-1)和1 × 10(6) m(-1)。对于这两个位点,一个质子在Cd(2+)结合时被释放。在这些pH值下,用质谱法测定了每摩尔还原硫氧还蛋白中有1摩尔Cd(2+),表明两个结合位点被部分占据并且相互排斥。Cd(2+)在两个位点的结合完全抑制了Trx的巯基二硫转移酶活性。在氧化或烷基化Trx中检测到Cd(2+)相互作用的缺失以及Cd(2+)对硫氧还蛋白酶活性的抑制支持了Cys32在第一位点的作用。然而,Cd(2+)结合的硫氧还蛋白的荧光谱与氧化的硫氧还蛋白的荧光谱不同,表明Cd(2+)不与Cys32和Cys35配位。从FTIR光谱中,我们推断第二个位点可能涉及Asp26,这是一种埋藏的残留物,它以相当高且不寻常的pK(a)为羧酸盐(7.5/9.2)去质子化。两个残基Cys32和Asp26的pK(a)已被证明是相互依赖的[Chivers, t.p. (1997) biochemistry, 36, 14985-14991]。提出了一种机制,其中Cd(2+)结合在Cys32的溶剂可接近的硫代基上,诱导Asp26的pK(A)降低及其去质子化。相反,Asp26的羧酸基团与第二个结合位点的Cd(2+)相互作用诱导Cys32去质子化和硫氧还蛋白抑制,因此Cd(2+)不仅通过与Cys32结合,还通过与Asp26相互作用抑制硫氧还蛋白活性。

Three point mutations R335S, L336V and V476L, distinguish the sequence of a cytochrome P450 CYP6A2 variant assumed to be responsible for 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(4'-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDT) resistance in the RDDT(R) strain of Drosophila melanogaster. To determine the impact of each mutation on the function of CYP6A2, the wild-type enzyme (CYP6A2wt) of Cyp6a2 was expressed in Escherichia coli as well as three variants carrying a single mutation, the double mutant CYP6A2vSV and the triple mutant CYP6A2vSVL. All CYP6A2 variants were less stable than the CYP6A2wt protein. Two activities enhanced in the RDDT(R) strain were measured with all recombinant proteins, namely testosterone hydroxylation and DDT metabolism. Testosterone was hydroxylated at the 2beta position with little quantitative variation among the variants. In contrast, metabolism of DDT was strongly affected by the mutations. The CYP6A2vSVL enzyme had an enhanced metabolism of DDT, producing dicofol, dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane and dichlorodiphenyl acetic acid. The apparent affinity of the enzymes CYP6A2wt and CYP6A2vSVL for DDT and testosterone was not significantly different as revealed by the type I difference spectra. Sequence alignments with CYP102A1 provided clues to the positions of the amino acids mutated in CYP6A2. These mutations were found spatially clustered in the vicinity of the distal end of helix I relative to the substrate recognition valley. Thus this area, including helix J, is important for the structure and activity of CYP6A2. Furthermore, we show here that point mutations in a cytochrome P450 can have a prominent role in insecticide resistance.

三个点突变R335S, L336V和V476L区分了细胞色素P450 CYP6A2变异的序列,该变异被认为是导致黑腹果蝇RDDT(R)菌株对1,1,1-三氯-2,2-二-(4'-氯苯)乙烷(DDT)抗性的原因。为了确定每种突变对CYP6A2功能的影响,我们在大肠杆菌中表达了CYP6A2的野生型酶(CYP6A2wt)以及携带单突变的三种变体,即双突变CYP6A2vSV和三突变CYP6A2vSVL。所有CYP6A2变异都不如CYP6A2wt蛋白稳定。所有重组蛋白均增强了RDDT(R)菌株的睾酮羟基化和DDT代谢活性。睾酮在2 β位置羟基化,变异之间的数量变化很小。相反,DDT的代谢受到突变的强烈影响。CYP6A2vSVL酶对DDT的代谢增强,产生三氯醇、二氯二苯二氯乙烷和二氯二苯乙酸。I型差异谱显示,CYP6A2wt和CYP6A2vSVL对DDT和睾酮的表观亲和力无显著差异。与CYP102A1的序列比对提供了CYP6A2突变氨基酸位置的线索。这些突变在空间上集中在相对于底物识别谷的螺旋I远端附近。因此,这个区域,包括螺旋J,对CYP6A2的结构和活性很重要。此外,我们在这里表明,细胞色素P450的点突变可以在杀虫剂抗性中发挥重要作用。

Identification of a gene encoding Lon protease from Brevibacillus thermoruber WR-249 and biochemical characterization of its thermostable recombinant enzyme. 耐热短芽孢杆菌WR-249 Lon蛋白酶基因的鉴定及其耐热性重组酶的生化特性研究。

A gene encoding thermostable Lon protease from Brevibacillus thermoruber WR-249 was cloned and characterized. The Br. thermoruber Lon gene (Bt-lon) encodes an 88 kDa protein characterized by an N-terminal domain, a central ATPase domain which includes an SSD (sensor- and substrate-discrimination) domain, and a C-terminal protease domain. The Bt-lon is a heat-inducible gene and may be controlled under a putative Bacillus subtilis sigmaA-dependent promoter, but in the absence of CIRCE (controlling inverted repeat of chaperone expression). Bt-lon was expressed in Escherichia coli, and its protein product was purified. The native recombinant Br. thermoruber Lon protease (Bt-Lon) displayed a hexameric structure. The optimal temperature of ATPase activity for Bt-Lon was 70 degrees C, and the optimal temperature of peptidase and DNA-binding activities was 50 degrees C. This implies that the functions of Lon protease in thermophilic bacteria may be switched, depending on temperature, to regulate their physiological needs. The peptidase activity of Bt-Lon increases substantially in the presence of ATP. Furthermore, the substrate specificity of Bt-Lon is different from that of E. coli Lon in using fluorogenic peptides as substrates. Notably, the Bt-Lon protein shows chaperone-like activity by preventing aggregation of denatured insulin B-chain in a dose-dependent and ATP-independent manner. In thermal denaturation experiments, Bt-Lon was found to display an indicator of thermostability value, Tm of 71.5 degrees C. Sequence comparison with mesophilic Lon proteases shows differences in the rigidity, electrostatic interactions, and hydrogen bonding of Bt-Lon relevant to thermostability.

克隆并鉴定了耐热短芽孢杆菌WR-249的耐热性蛋白酶基因。Br。thermoruber Lon基因(Bt-lon)编码一个88 kDa的蛋白,其特征是n端结构域,一个中心atp酶结构域,包括一个SSD(传感器和底物识别)结构域和一个c端蛋白酶结构域。Bt-lon是一种热诱导基因,可以在假定的枯草芽孢杆菌sigmaa依赖性启动子下控制,但在没有CIRCE(控制伴侣蛋白表达的反向重复)的情况下。在大肠杆菌中表达了Bt-lon,并纯化了其蛋白产物。天然重组Br。热克隆蛋白酶(Bt-Lon)呈六聚体结构。Bt-Lon的atp酶活性的最佳温度为70℃,肽酶和dna结合活性的最佳温度为50℃,这表明Lon蛋白酶在嗜热细菌中的功能可能根据温度的变化而改变,以调节它们的生理需要。在ATP的存在下,Bt-Lon的肽酶活性显著增加。此外,在使用荧光肽作为底物时,Bt-Lon与大肠杆菌Lon的底物特异性不同。值得注意的是,Bt-Lon蛋白通过以剂量依赖和atp不依赖的方式阻止变性胰岛素b链的聚集,显示出伴侣蛋白样活性。在热变性实验中,发现Bt-Lon具有71.5℃的热稳定性指标,与中亲性Lon蛋白酶的序列比较表明,Bt-Lon在与热稳定性相关的刚性、静电相互作用和氢键方面存在差异。

Bt-lon was expressed in Escherichia coli, and its protein product was purified. The native recombinant Br. thermoruber Lon protease (Bt-Lon) displayed a hexameric structure. The optimal temperature of ATPase activity for Bt-Lon was 70 degrees C, and the optimal temperature of peptidase and DNA-binding activities was 50 degrees C. This implies that the functions of Lon protease in thermophilic bacteria may be switched, depending on temperature, to regulate their physiological needs. The peptidase activity of Bt-Lon increases substantially in the presence of ATP. Furthermore, the substrate specificity of Bt-Lon is different from that of E. coli Lon in using fluorogenic peptides as substrates. Notably, the Bt-Lon protein shows chaperone-like activity by preventing aggregation of denatured insulin B-chain in a dose-dependent and ATP-independent manner. In thermal denaturation experiments, Bt-Lon was found to display an indicator of thermostability value, Tm of 71.5 degrees C. Sequence comparison with mesophilic Lon proteases shows differences in the rigidity, electrostatic interactions, and hydrogen bonding of Bt-Lon relevant to thermostability.</p>","PeriodicalId":11817,"journal":{"name":"European journal of biochemistry","volume":"271 4","pages":"834-44"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/j.1432-1033.2004.03988.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24199582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Acharan sulfate, a recently discovered glycosaminoglycan isolated from Achatina fulica, has a major disaccharide repeating unit of -->4)-2-acetyl,2-deoxy-alpha-d-glucopyranose(1-->4)-2-sulfo-alpha-l-idopyranosyluronic acid (1-->, making it structurally related to both heparin and heparan sulfate. It has been suggested that this glycosaminoglycan is polydisperse, with an average molecular mass of 29 kDa and known minor disaccharide sequence variants containing unsulfated iduronic acid. Acharan sulfate was found to be located in the body of this species using alcian blue staining and it was suggested to be the main constituent of the mucus. In the present work, we provide further information on the structure and compartmental distribution of acharan sulfate in the snail body. Different populations of acharan sulfate presenting charge and/or molecular mass heterogeneities were isolated from the whole body, as well as from mucus and from the organic shell matrix. A minor glycosaminoglycan fraction susceptible to degradation by nitrous acid was also purified from the snail body, suggesting the presence of N-sulfated glycosaminoglycan molecules. In addition, we demonstrate the in vivo metabolic labeling of acharan sulfate in the snail body after a meal supplemented with [35S]free sulfate. This simple approach might be applied to the study of acharan sulfate biosynthesis. Finally, we developed histochemical assays to localize acharan sulfate in the snail body by metachromatic staining and by histoautoradiography following metabolic radiolabeling with [35S]sulfate. Our results show that acharan sulfate is widely distributed among several organs.

硫酸阿查兰(Acharan sulfate)是一种新发现的糖胺聚糖,其主要双糖重复单元为->4)-2-乙酰基,2-脱氧-- d-葡萄糖吡喃糖(1- >4)-2-磺基-- l-异吡喃氨基醛酸(1- >),与肝素和硫酸阿查兰在结构上均有亲缘关系。这种糖胺聚糖是多分散的,平均分子质量为29 kDa,已知的少量双糖序列变体含有未酸化的伊杜醛酸。用阿利新蓝染色法发现硫酸阿查兰位于该物种的体内,它被认为是粘液的主要成分。在本工作中,我们进一步研究了硫酸阿查兰在蜗牛体内的结构和区室分布。从整个身体、粘液和有机壳基质中分离出不同的硫酸阿查兰种群,它们表现出电荷和/或分子质量的异质性。此外,还从蜗牛体内纯化出易被亚硝酸降解的少量糖胺聚糖,表明存在n -硫酸化的糖胺聚糖分子。此外,我们证明了在添加了[35S]游离硫酸盐的膳食后,硫酸阿查兰在蜗牛体内的代谢标记。该方法可应用于硫酸阿查兰生物合成的研究。最后,我们开发了组织化学分析方法,通过异色染色和用[35S]硫酸盐代谢性放射性标记后的组织放射自显影来定位螺体内的硫酸阿卡兰。结果表明,硫酸阿查兰广泛分布于几个器官中。

In order to determine the amino-terminal sequence requirements for protein N-myristoylation, site-directed mutagenesis of the N-terminal region was performed using tumor necrosis factor (TNF) mutants as model substrate proteins. Subsequently, the susceptibility of these mutants to protein N-myristoylation was evaluated by metabolic labeling in an in vitro translation system using rabbit reticulocyte lysate. A TNF mutant having the sequence MGAAAAAAAA at its N-terminus was used as the starting sequence to identify elements critical for protein N-myristoylation. Sequential vertical-scanning mutagenesis of amino acids at a distinct position in this model N-terminal sequence revealed the major sequence requirements for protein N-myristoylation: the combination of amino acids at position 3 and 6 constitutes a major determinant for the susceptibility to protein N-myristoylation. When Ser was located at position 6, 11 amino acids (Gly, Ala, Ser, Cys, Thr, Val, Asn, Leu, Ile, Gln, His) were permitted at position 3 to direct efficient protein N-myristoylation. In this case, the presence of Lys at position 7 was found to affect the amino acid requirement at position 3 and Lys became permitted at this position. When Ser was not located at position 6, only 3 amino acids (Ala, Asn, Gln) were permitted at position 3 to direct efficient protein N-myristoylation. The amino acid requirements found in this study were fully consistent with the N-terminal sequence of 78 N-myristoylated proteins in which N-myristoylation was experimentally verified. These observations strongly indicate that the combination of amino acids at position 3, 6 and 7 is a major determinant for protein N-myristoylation.

为了确定蛋白质n -肉豆肉酰化所需的氨基末端序列,使用肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)突变体作为模型底物蛋白,对n末端区域进行了定点诱变。随后,这些突变体对蛋白n -肉豆肉酰基化的易感性通过代谢标记在体外翻译系统中使用兔网织网细胞裂解液进行评估。在其n端具有MGAAAAAAAA序列的TNF突变体被用作起始序列,以鉴定蛋白质n -肉豆蔻酰化的关键元件。对该模型n端序列中不同位置的氨基酸进行序列垂直扫描诱变,揭示了蛋白n -肉豆肉酰化的主要序列要求:第3位和第6位氨基酸的组合是蛋白n -肉豆肉酰化易感性的主要决定因素。当Ser位于第6位时,11个氨基酸(Gly, Ala, Ser, Cys, Thr, Val, Asn, Leu, Ile, Gln, His)被允许在第3位进行有效的蛋白n肉豆肉酰化。在这种情况下,发现7号位置的赖氨酸的存在影响了3号位置的氨基酸需求,赖氨酸在这个位置被允许存在。当Ser不位于第6位时,只有3个氨基酸(Ala, Asn, Gln)被允许在第3位指导有效的蛋白质n -肉豆蔻酰基化。本研究发现的氨基酸需求与实验证实的78个n -肉豆蔻酰基化蛋白的n端序列完全一致。这些观察结果强烈表明,3、6和7位氨基酸的组合是蛋白质n -肉豆蔻酰化的主要决定因素。

The platelet integrin receptor alphaIIbbeta3 plays a critical role in thrombosis and haemostasis by mediating interactions between platelets and several ligands but primarily fibrinogen. It has been shown previously that the YMESRADR KLAEVGRVYLFL (313-332) sequence of the alphaIIb subunit plays an important role in platelet activation, fibrinogen binding and alphaIIbbeta3-mediated outside-in signalling. Furthermore, we recently showed that the 20-residue peptide (20-mer) alphaIIb 313-332, is a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding to alphaIIbbeta3, interacting with fibrinogen rather than the receptor. In an effort to determine the sequence and the minimum length required for the biological activity of the above 20-mer, we synthesized seven octapeptides, each overlapping by six residues, covering the entire sequence and studied their effect on platelet activation as well as fibrinogen binding to activated platelets. We show for the first time that octapeptides containing the RAD sequence are capable of inhibiting platelet aggregation and secretion as well as fibrinogen binding to the activated alphaIIbbeta3, possibly interacting with the ligand rather than the receptor. This suggests that the RAD sequence, common to all the inhibitory peptides, is critical for their biological activity. However, the presence of the YMES sequence, adjacent to RAD, significantly increases the peptide's biological potency. The development of such inhibitors derived from the 313-332 region of the alphaIIb subunit may be advantageous against the RGD-like antagonists as they could inhibit platelet activation without interacting with alphaIIbbeta3, thus failing to further induce alphaIIbbeta3-mediated outside-in signalling.

血小板整合素受体alphaIIbbeta3通过介导血小板与几种配体(主要是纤维蛋白原)之间的相互作用,在血栓形成和止血中起关键作用。先前已有研究表明,alphaIIb亚基的YMESRADR KLAEVGRVYLFL(313-332)序列在血小板活化、纤维蛋白原结合和alphaiibbeta3介导的outside-in信号传导中起重要作用。此外,我们最近发现20-残基肽(20-mer) alphaIIb 313-332是血小板聚集和纤维蛋白原结合的有效抑制剂,与纤维蛋白原而不是受体相互作用。为了确定上述20-mer的序列和生物活性所需的最小长度,我们合成了7个八肽,每个八肽有6个残基重叠,覆盖了整个序列,并研究了它们对血小板活化以及纤维蛋白原与活化血小板结合的影响。我们首次发现含有RAD序列的八肽能够抑制血小板聚集和分泌,以及纤维蛋白原与活化的alphaIIbbeta3结合,可能与配体而不是受体相互作用。这表明所有抑制肽共有的RAD序列对其生物活性至关重要。然而,毗邻RAD的YMES序列的存在显著增加了肽的生物学效力。源自alphaIIb亚基313-332区域的此类抑制剂的开发可能有利于对抗rgd样拮抗剂,因为它们可以抑制血小板活化,而不与alphaIIbbeta3相互作用,因此无法进一步诱导alphaIIbbeta3介导的外向内信号传导。

The information required for successful assembly of an icosahedral virus is encoded in the native conformation of the capsid protein and in its interaction with the nucleic acid. Here we investigated how the packing and stability of virus capsids are sensitive to single amino acid substitutions in the coat protein. Tryptophan fluorescence, bis-8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonate fluorescence, CD and light scattering were employed to measure urea- and pressure-induced effects on MS2 bacteriophage and temperature sensitive mutants. M88V and T45S particles were less stable than the wild-type forms and completely dissociated at 3.0 kbar of pressure. M88V and T45S mutants also had lower stability in the presence of urea. We propose that the lower stability of M88V particles is related to an increase in the cavity of the hydrophobic core. Bis-8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonate fluorescence increased for the pressure-dissociated mutants but not for the urea-denatured samples, indicating that the final products were different. To verify reassembly of the particles, gel filtration chromatography and infectivity assays were performed. The phage titer was reduced dramatically when particles were treated with a high concentration of urea. In contrast, the phage titer recovered after high-pressure treatment. Thus, after pressure-induced dissociation of the virus, information for correct reassembly was preserved. In contrast to M88V and T45S, the D11N mutant virus particle was more stable than the wild-type virus, in spite of it also possessing a temperature sensitive growth phenotype. Overall, our data show how point substitutions in the capsid protein, which affect either the packing or the interaction at the protein-RNA interface, result in changes in virus stability.

成功组装二十面体病毒所需的信息编码于衣壳蛋白的天然构象及其与核酸的相互作用中。在此,我们研究了病毒衣壳的包装和稳定性如何对外壳蛋白中单个氨基酸的取代敏感。采用色氨酸荧光、双-8-苯胺萘-1-磺酸盐荧光、CD和光散射测量了尿素和压力诱导对MS2噬菌体和温度敏感突变体的影响。M88V和T45S颗粒在3.0 kbar的压力下完全解离,稳定性不如野生型。M88V和T45S突变体在尿素存在下的稳定性也较低。我们认为M88V粒子的稳定性较低与疏水核空腔的增加有关。压力解离突变体的双-8-苯胺萘-1-磺酸盐荧光增加,而尿素变性样品的荧光没有增加,表明最终产物不同。为了验证颗粒的重组,进行了凝胶过滤层析和感染性实验。当颗粒被高浓度尿素处理时,噬菌体滴度显著降低。高压处理后噬菌体滴度恢复。因此,在压力诱导解离病毒后,保留了正确重组的信息。与M88V和T45S相比,D11N突变病毒颗粒比野生型病毒更稳定,尽管它也具有温度敏感的生长表型。总的来说,我们的数据显示衣壳蛋白中的点取代如何影响包装或蛋白质- rna界面的相互作用,从而导致病毒稳定性的变化。

The calpain 1-alpha-actinin interaction. Resting complex between the calcium-dependent protease and its target in cytoskeleton. 钙蛋白酶1-肌动蛋白相互作用。细胞骨架中钙依赖性蛋白酶与其靶点之间的静息复合物。

Calpain 1 behaviour toward cytoskeletal targets was investigated using two alpha-actinin isoforms from smooth and skeletal muscles. These two isoforms which are, respectively, sensitive and resistant to calpain cleavage, interact with the protease when using in vitro binding assays. The stability of the complexes in EGTA [Kd(-Ca2+) = 0.5 +/- 0.1 microM] was improved in the presence of 1 mm calcium ions [Kd(+Ca2+) = 0.05 +/- 0.01 microM]. Location of the binding structures shows that the C-terminal domain of alpha-actinin and each calpain subunit, 28 and 80 kDa, participates in the interaction. In particular, the autolysed calpain form (76/18) affords a similar binding compared to the 80/28 intact enzyme, with an identified binding site in the catalytic subunit, located in the C-terminal region of the chain (domain III-IV). The in vivo colocalization of calpain 1 and alpha-actinin was shown to be likely in the presence of calcium, when permeabilized muscle fibres were supplemented by exogenous calpain 1 and the presence of calpain 1 in Z-line cores was shown by gold-labelled antibodies. The demonstration of such a colocalization was brought by coimmunoprecipitation experiments of calpain 1 and alpha-actinin from C2.7 myogenic cells. We propose that calpain 1 interacts in a resting state with cytoskeletal targets, and that this binding is strengthened in pathological conditions, such as ischaemia and dystrophies, associated with high calcium concentrations.

使用来自平滑肌和骨骼肌的两种α -肌动蛋白异构体研究了calpain1对细胞骨架目标的行为。这两种异构体分别对钙蛋白酶裂解敏感和抗性,在体外结合试验中与蛋白酶相互作用。在1 mm钙离子[Kd(+Ca2+) = 0.05 +/- 0.01 microM]的存在下,EGTA中复合物的稳定性得到改善[Kd(-Ca2+) = 0.5 +/- 0.1 microM]。结合结构的位置表明α -肌动蛋白的c端结构域和每个钙蛋白酶亚基(28和80 kDa)参与了相互作用。特别是,与完整的80/28酶相比,自溶的calpain形式(76/18)提供了类似的结合,在催化亚基中有一个确定的结合位点,位于链的c端区域(结构域III-IV)。在钙存在的情况下,钙蛋白酶1和α -肌动蛋白可能在体内共定位,当渗透肌纤维被外源性钙蛋白酶1补充时,金标记抗体显示z线核心中存在钙蛋白酶1。这种共定位是通过C2.7肌源性细胞中calpain 1和α -actin的共免疫沉淀实验证明的。我们认为,钙蛋白酶1在静息状态下与细胞骨架靶点相互作用,并且这种结合在病理条件下,如缺血和营养不良,与高钙浓度相关时得到加强。

These two isoforms which are, respectively, sensitive and resistant to calpain cleavage, interact with the protease when using in vitro binding assays. The stability of the complexes in EGTA [Kd(-Ca2+) = 0.5 +/- 0.1 microM] was improved in the presence of 1 mm calcium ions [Kd(+Ca2+) = 0.05 +/- 0.01 microM]. Location of the binding structures shows that the C-terminal domain of alpha-actinin and each calpain subunit, 28 and 80 kDa, participates in the interaction. In particular, the autolysed calpain form (76/18) affords a similar binding compared to the 80/28 intact enzyme, with an identified binding site in the catalytic subunit, located in the C-terminal region of the chain (domain III-IV). The in vivo colocalization of calpain 1 and alpha-actinin was shown to be likely in the presence of calcium, when permeabilized muscle fibres were supplemented by exogenous calpain 1 and the presence of calpain 1 in Z-line cores was shown by gold-labelled antibodies. The demonstration of such a colocalization was brought by coimmunoprecipitation experiments of calpain 1 and alpha-actinin from C2.7 myogenic cells.
