人谷胱甘肽硫转化酶基因在链霉菌的高效表达

谷胱甘肽硫转化酶(GST)是一个具有广泛底物专一性,与一些化学致癌物代谢有关的酶的一个家族.它既有谷胱甘肽硫转化酶的活性,也有过氧化物酶的活性,能使谷胱甘肽分子上的巯基(SH)与广泛的亚硝基本类化合物结合,使这类致癌物转化成无毒的化合物.它亦能与细胞内源的一些阴离子化合物(如胆红素和亚铁血红素)结合并参与运输.在人体中,GST的缺乏常与新生儿非溶血性的胆红素积累而导致的病因有关,同时GST在保护生物体过氧化反应的损伤中也起着重要的作用.     

谷胱甘肽硫转移酶基因表达的调控

催化内源性或外源性亲电子化合物与谷胱甘肽(GSH)结合的谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)超基因家族是一族解毒功能蛋白.其基因的表达通过不同的机制受多种物质的调控.根据最近文献资料,对调控谷胱甘肽硫转移酶基因表达的基因结构、调控机制及氧化应激对谷胱甘肽硫转移酶基因表达的调控作用等作一简要综述.     

AC1及AC3抗白内障形成中晶状体谷胱甘肽代谢相关酶活性的变化

观察了亚硒酸钠,AC1,AC3对大鼠晶状体中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px),谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)及谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)的影响。结果表明,亚硒酸钠组大鼠的晶状体尚未混浊前已出现GSH-Px活性增高及GR和GST的活性降低。GR活性下降随白内障进展而加重。AC1及AC3均可使亚硒酸钠所致的酶活性变化逆转,但对正常晶状体的酶活性没有影响。     

二氧化硫胁迫导致拟南芥防护基因表达改变

研究SO2熏气对拟南芥细胞中mRNA和蛋白质表达的影响,分析植株对逆境胁迫的响应机制.结果表明,30 mg·m-3 SO2 熏气72 h后拟南芥地上组织中差异表达1倍以上的基因有494个,其中抗氧化酶、谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)、硫氧还蛋白等多种与逆境生理关系密切的基因表达上调;2.5～30 mg·m-3 SO2 熏气可导致超氧化物岐化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPX)和GST的活性诱导性增高,SOD、CAT同工酶谱带特征改变.研究结果表明,SO2 胁迫能够诱导拟南芥中防护基因在mRNA和蛋白质表达水平的改变,这些基因的差异性表达可能对逆境生理过程有益.     

胆红素对人胎盘谷胱甘肽S-转移酶的别构效应

胆红素是人胎盘谷胱甘肽S—转移酶(GST—π)的别构效应剂,在胆红素存在下,底物谷胱甘肽(GSH)呈同促正协同效应:胆红素浓度愈高,Hill氏系数(n_H)也愈大,胆红素本身对酶的结合也呈同促正协同效应。胆红素还能加速GST-π在缺乏疏基保护剂时的自然失活,加速GST-π的氨基被2,4,6—三硝基苯磺酸(TNBS)、胍基被丁二酮以及羧基被N-乙基-N’-(3-二甲胺基丙基)羧二亚胺(EDC)的修饰,但却抑制N-乙基顺丁二酰亚胺(NEMI)对疏基的修饰,胆红素这种对失活作用的影响可能和胆红素引起GST-π空间构象的变化有关,对其他可能性也作了讨论。     

缺硫对镉胁迫下水稻幼苗非蛋白巯基物质含量和谷胱甘肽硫转移酶活性的影响

通过设置缺硫(S)处理,研究了镉(Cd)胁迫下水稻生长情况、幼苗Cd和非蛋白巯基含量以及谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)活性的动态变化.结果表明:Cd胁迫明显抑制了水稻生长,显著诱导了巯基物质[非蛋白巯基(NPT)、谷胱甘肽(GSH)、植物螯合肽(PC)]的合成,GST活性表现出先升后降的趋势.缺S处理下,尽管水稻根部对Cd的吸收和向地上部的转运都有所增加,但Cd胁迫程度并未明显增强,巯基物质含量明显降低,根部GST活性提高.表明巯基物质和GST在水稻抗Cd胁迫过程中互为补充,在一定程度上减轻了Cd的毒性效应.     

人胎盘谷胱甘肽转硫酶分离纯化的简易方法

谷胱甘肽转硫酶(GST,EC2.5.1.18.)广泛存在于哺乳动物各组织中,催化GSH与化学物质的亲电子基团结合,最终形成硫醚氨酸排出体外,在体内解毒功能上起重要作用。 胎盘型GST(又称GST_x)为酸性蛋白质,p14.8,分子量47000,由两个亚基组成,在正常成人肝中仅含少量。实验证明,在大鼠增生性肝损害时胎盘型GST水平显著升高,故可做为化学性肝癌的一种指标。     

外源一氧化氮对镉胁迫下绿豆幼苗根尖抗氧化酶的影响

采用水培法研究外源一氧化氮对镉(Cd)胁迫下绿豆幼苗根尖抗氧化酶活性的影响。结果表明:0.01mmol/L和0.1mmol/L一氧化氮供体硝普钠(sodium nitroprusside,SNP)显著促进上胚轴生长,1mmol/LSNP则抑制绿豆幼苗生长。Cd单独处理抑制根尖抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(ascorbate peroxidase,APX)和超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)活性而刺激脂氧合酶(lipoxygenase,LOX)、谷胱甘肽转硫酶(glutathione S-transferase,GST)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(glutathione reductase,GR)和过氧化物酶(guaiacol peroxidase,POD)活性上升。0.1mmol/LSNP预处理能够明显缓解Cd对根生长的抑制,降低根尖中MDA含量,提高根尖APX和SOD活性,降低LOX和POD活性,但不影响GST和GR活性。

Cloning and expression of a lignin peroxidase gene from Streptomyces viridosporus in Streptomyces lividans.

A lignin peroxidase gene was cloned from Streptomyces viridosporus T7A into Streptomyces lividans TK64 in plasmid pIJ702. BglII-digested genomic DNA (4-10 kb) of S. viridosporus was shotgun-cloned into S. lividans after insertion into the melanin (mel+) gene of pIJ702. Transformants expressing pIJ702 with insert DNA were selected based upon the appearance of thiostrepton resistant (tsrr)/mel-colonies on regeneration medium. Lignin peroxidase-expressing clones were isolated from this population by screening of transformants on a tsr-poly B-411 dye agar medium. In the presence of H2O2 excreted by S. lividans, colonies of lignin peroxidase-expressing clones decolorized the dye. Among 1000 transformants screened, 2 dye-decolorizing clones were found. One, pIJ702/TK64.1 (TK64.1), was further characterized. TK64.1 expressed significant extracellular 2,4-dichlorophenol (2.4-DCP) peroxidase activity (= assay for S. viridosporus lignin peroxidase). Under the cultural conditions employed, plasmidless S. lividans TK64 had a low background level of 2.4-DCP oxidizing activity. TK64.1 excreted an extracellular peroxidase not observed in S. lividans TK64, but similar to S. viridosporus lignin peroxidase ALip-P3, as shown by activity stain assays on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels. The gene was located on a 4 kb fragment of S. viridosporus genomic DNA. When peroxidase-encoding plasmid, pIJ702.LP, was purified and used to transform three different S. lividans strains (TK64, TK23, TK24), all transformants tested decolorized poly B-411. When grown on lignocellulose in solid state processes, genetically engineered S. lividans TK64.1 degraded the lignocellulose slightly better than did S. lividans TK64. This is the first report of the cloning of a bacterial gene coding for a lignin-degrading enzyme.     

在链霉菌中表达透明颤菌血红蛋白需要异源启动子

构建了质粒pIJ4083Mpro、pIJ4083\|pro\,pWLD8和pFW3。在浅青紫链霉菌TK24中,启动子探针质粒pIJ4083上的邻苯二酚双加氧酶基因(xylE)不能被透明颤菌血红蛋白基因(vgb)的启动子带动转录,表明vgb启动子在链霉菌中无作用。TK24中,pWLD8和pFW3均能表达透明颤菌血红蛋白(VHb),pWLD8上可能是由Plac带动vgb的表达;pFW3上vgb基因去掉了非必要部分,克隆在PCR扩增得到的glnA启动子下游,两者连成嵌合基因。     

人肿瘤坏死因子β(hTNFβ)在变铅青链霉菌中的表达研究

以变铅青链霉菌为宿主研究了人INFβ(hTNFβ)的异源表达。应用链霉菌S.VENEZUELAC cbs762.70分泌产生的枯草杆菌蛋白酶抑制剂vsi基因的启动子、表达调控序列和分泌信号肽序列,分别对hTNFβ进行了直接分泌表达、分泌融合表达和胞内表达。将hTNFβ的cDNA分别直接融合于vsi信号肽序列下游2个氨基酸处、vsi全长基因之后以及vsi起始密码子ATG的下游,获得的表达盒分别克隆至链霉菌高拷贝质粒pIJ486,转化Streptomyces lividans TK24,获得了重组菌株S.lividans(pIJ486-hTNFβ),s.LIVIDANS(PIJ486-vsi-hTNFβ)和S.lividans(pIVPA-hTNFβ)。分别对不同的重组菌株进行摇瓶培养,对其培养的上清液和细胞裂解液进行SDS—PAGE和Westen杂交,结果表明：hTNFβ在重组菌株中均获得了表达,且直接分泌产物和胞内表达产物均具有生物学活性。hTNFβ直接分泌表达产物的分子量约为16kDa,NB培养基中培养48h时表达水平约为0．7mg／L。胞内表达产物分子量与对照重组hTNFβ一致(18．7kDa),但随培养时间的延长远步降解为16kDa,NB培养基中培养48h时的表达水平(25．1mg／L)远高于其直接分泌表达水平。     

In vivo transcription of two promoters, PTH4 and PTH270 involved in regulation ofStreptomyces differentiation

The promoters, PTH4 and P-TH270 involved in the regulation of Streptomyces coelicolor differentiation were subcloned into Streptomyces promoter, i.e. probe plasmid pIJ4083, and the recombinant plasmids, pIJ4470 and pIJ4471, were constructed. Two promoters could drive the expression of reporter gene encoding catechol dioxygenase when pIJ4470 and pIJ4471 were introduced into some white mutants (C85, C70, C71, C17 and C119). The total RNA was isolated from these strains containing recombinant plasmid. Probes were prepared by labelling 5 -ends of PTH4 AND PTH270 DNA fragments using radioisotope. DNA - RNA hybridization was carried out with the probes and RNAs isolated from different strains. The S1 mapping result showed that all RNAs from strains of C85/pIJ4470, C85/4471, C70/pIJ4470, C70/pIJ4471 and C17/pIJ4470 as well as C17/pIJ4471 gave rise to strong positive hy-bridization signal, whereas RNAs from C71/pIJ4470 and C71/pIJ4471 did not give any positive signal. RNAs from C119/pIJ4470 and C119/pIJ4471 gav     

Cloning of a DNA fragment from Streptomyces griseus which directs streptomycin phosphotransferase activity

DNA from Streptomyces griseus ATCC 12475 was partially digested with Sau3A and fragments were ligated into BglII-cleaved pIJ702. When the ligation mixture was used to transform protoplasts of Streptomyces lividans TK54, two transformants resistant to both thiostrepton and streptomycin were isolated. The hybrid plasmids pBV3 and pBV4 which they contained, carrying inserts of sizes 4.45 and 11.55 kbp respectively, each retransformed S. lividans to streptomycin resistance at high efficiency. Both plasmids hybridized to restriction digests of S. griseus chromosomal DNA in Southern blot experiments. In vitro deletion and sub-cloning experiments showed the sequence conferring streptomycin resistance to lie within a segment of 1.95 kbp. Extracts of TK54(pBV3) and TK54(pBV4) contained a streptomycin phosphotransferase similar to that in extracts of S. griseus. Streptomycin phosphotransferase activity appeared in extracts of S. griseus, TK54(pBV3) and TK54(pBV4) within 2 d of inoculation. When pBV3 and pBV4 were retransformed into S. griseus with selection for thiostrepton resistance, plasmid DNA of sizes corresponding to the incoming plasmids was found in the transformants. In these transformants the phosphotransferase appeared at 1.5 rather than 2 d, and reached a level over twice that of the original S. griseus strain.     

High-level expression of whiG——A key gene for Streptomyces differentiation in Escherichia coli

Six nucleotides located in the region of translation start site of whiG were changed. whiG was amplified by PCR technique. Reformed sequences were determined. This gene was directly subcloned into expression vector pET11c containing strong T7 promoter, and the recombinant plasmid was introduced into E. coli BL21(DE3), which could be induced by IPTG to produce T7 RNA polymerase. The SDS-PAGE result showed that whiG highly expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3), and the yield of whiG product was about 20% of insoluble proteins in cell. whiG product (σwhiG) was further identified by Western blot hybridization after making its antibody. whiG gene was subcloned into Streptomyces plasmid pIJ6021, and then it was introduced into sporulation deficient mutant C71 from Streptomyces coelicolor. The result showed that C71 could restore sporulation and σwhiG has biological functions.
