Rice Crinkly4 receptor-like kinase positively regulates culm elongation and amino acid K532 is not essential for its kinase activity

Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) play important roles in multiple aspects of plant growth and development. As a member of the TNFR-like RLK subfamily, rice Crinkly4 (OsCR4) functions mainly in epidermal cell differentiation in many organs. Here we show that in addition to its essential role in epidermal cell differentiation in the palea and lemma, OsCR4 positively regulates rice culm elongation, similar to maize CR4. Although OsCR4 is an active kinase, like CR4 in maize and ACR4 in Arabidopsis, the conserved amino acid K532 in OsCR4 is not essential for its kinase activity in vitro. Whether other conserved amino acids are required for its kinase activity and the relationship between its activity and function in plant development remain to be investigated.

Murine immune responses to recombinant Toxoplasma gondii antigens

Recombinant proteins of the RH strain of Toxoplasma gondii were produced by expression in Escherichia coli as glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were established using 2 of these fusion proteins termed H4/GST and H11/GST. The assays were able to detect antibodies in the sera of mice orally infected with either the cyst or oocyst stage of a pork isolate of T. gondii. In addition, the sera from mice infected with 1 of 4 different T. gondii isolates were investigated for their binding to these fusion proteins. Antibodies in the sera of all mice bound to H11/GST, but not all sera recognized H4/GST. Delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses to the fusion proteins were found when the mice were sensitized intradermally with H4/GST and H11/GST and challenged with the homologous fusion protein. However, no DTH response was recorded when mice were challenged with homologous fusion proteins after infection with T. gondii, or after immunization with a sonicate of the RH strain of the parasite. In addition, cellular responses were not stimulated against either of the fusion proteins in in vitro assays. These 2 fusion proteins were recognized by anti-T. gondii antibodies in experimental murine infections, and they are therefore potential candidates as antigens in assays for the diagnosis of human toxoplasmosis.     

Crinkly4 receptor-like kinase is required to maintain the interlocking of the palea and lemma, and fertility in rice, by promoting epidermal cell differentiation

The palea and lemma are unique organs in grass plants that form a protective barrier around the floral organs and developing kernel. The interlocking of the palea and lemma is critical for maintaining fertility and seed yield in rice; however, the molecules that control the interlocking structure remain largely unknown. Here, we showed that when OsCR4 mRNA expression was knocked down in rice by RNA interference, the palea and lemma separated at later spikelet stages and gradually turned brown after heading, resulting in the severe interruption of pistil pollination and damage to the development of embryo and endosperm, with defects in aleurone. The irregular architecture of the palea and lemma was caused by tumour-like cell growth in the outer epidermis and wart-like cell masses in the inner epidermis. These abnormal cells showed discontinuous cuticles and uneven cell walls, leading to organ self-fusion that distorted the interlocking structures. Additionally, the faster leakage of chlorophyll, reduced silica content and elevated accumulation of anthocyanin in the palea and lemma indicated a lesion in the protective barrier, which also impaired seed quality. OsCR4 is an active receptor-like kinase associated with the membrane fraction. An analysis of promoter::GUS reporter plants showed that OsCR4 is specifically expressed in the epidermal cells of paleas and lemmas. Together, these results suggest that OsCR4 plays an essential role in maintaining the interlocking of the palea and lemma by promoting epidermal cell differentiation.

Development of antibody-based assays for omega-conotoxin MVIIA

Omega-conotoxin MVIIA (CTX MVIIA) is a specific peptide blocker of the N-type voltage-sensitive calcium channel in neurons. The synthetic version of CTX MVIIA, Ziconotide, has been recently approved by FDA for management of severe and chronic pains. Currently, the chemical synthetic CTX MVIIA has been analyzed by RP-HPLC, and there are no chemical or immunological assays available for determination of the peptide. In this article, we report a novel method for preparation of polyclonal antibody against CTX MVIIA, and the antibody-based assays for the analysis of CTX MVIIA. The DNA sequences encoding the conotoxin were chemically synthesized and then cloned into the expression vector pGEX-2T. The GST fusion protein of CTX MVIIA was expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) with induction of IPTG. The purified fusion protein was used to immunize the male rabbits with standard protocols. The produced antiserum was purified through anion-exchange chromatography. Another thioredoxin (Trx) fusion protein of CTX MVIIA was employed to cross-examine the antibody against the conotoxin. Our Western blot and ELISA results show that the polyclonal antibody was capable of binding the conotoxin parts of both GST and Trx fusion proteins, and the antibody titer is 1:8192. Thus, the assays based on this antibody are useful for the conotoxin analysis.     

Prokaryotic expression and polyclonal antibody preparation of a novel Rab-like protein mRabL5

Rab GTPases, which belong to the Ras superfamily, represent a group of small molecular weight GTP binding proteins that are involved in various steps along the exocytic and endocytic pathways. We first identified mRabL5 (GenBank Accession No. NP_080349), a novel Mus musculus Rab-like protein, present as a Golgi-associated protein. Here we presented the results of the cloning, prokaryotic expression, purification, and polyclonal antibody production of the novel Rab-like protein. In order to obtain a specific antibody against mRabL5, we prepared two GST fusion proteins, full-length mRabL5 GST fusion protein and mRabL5 C terminus GST fusion protein, to immunize rabbits. Western blot analysis showed that both antibodies prepared against full length of mRabL5 and its C terminus, respectively, can recognize mRabL5 protein. Immunofluorescence of mRabL5 in NIH3T3 cells using the two antibodies showed its perinuclear clustering distribution pattern. The polyclonal antibodies preparation against mRabL5 provided a good tool for us to study the functional involvement of mRabL5.
