亲和素结合蛋白性质的研究

前曾发现在日本血吸虫虫卵中,存在一种新的能与亲和素专一性结合的蛋白质,称为亲和素结合蛋白（ＡＢＰ）。在分离纯化ＡＢＰ的基础上,用ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ及ＳｅｐｈａｄｅｘＧ－１５０分别测定了ＡＢＰ的分子量,并做了糖蛋白染色及等电,大测定。实验结果表明ＡＢＰ是一个分子量为６５ｋＤ的碱性糖蛋白,由数个相同的分子量为１２．７ｋＤ的亚单位组成。ＳＤＳ、β－巯基乙醇处理的ＡＢＰ仍能与亲和素结合,提示ＡＢＰ的亚单位能与亲和素结合。氨基酸修饰剂ＮＡＩ、ＤＴＮＢ、ＮＥＭ及ＮＢＳ对ＡＢＰ与亲和素的结合有不同程度的影响,而ＨＮＢＢ、ＴＮＢＳ及ＩＡＡ对ＡＢＰ与亲和素的结合无影响,提示ＡＢＰ分子中氨基酸残基Ｔｙｒ、Ｃｙｒ是ＡＢＰ与亲和素结合所必需的,可能参与结合位点的形成。另外,测得ＡＢＰ与亲和素结合的结合常数为１．４×１０~（－７）ｍｏｌ／Ｌ。

Immunolocalization of the 38.3 kDa calponin-like protein in stratified muscles of the tail of Schistosoma japonicum cercariae.

Calponins are proteins present in vertebrate smooth musculature where they occur in association with thin myofilaments. Calponins are not present in vertebrate or invertebrate striated muscles. The blood fluke Schistosoma japonicum expresses a 38.3-kDa protein that bears substantial homology with vertebrate calponin and occurs entirely within smooth musculature of adults. Calponin-like immunoreactivity has been demonstrated in smooth muscles of many invertebrate phyla. The Schistosoma japonicum calponin has been localised in smooth myofibrils of adults where it is associated with myofilaments and sarcoplasmic reticulum. In this study, the ultrastructural localisation of the protein in muscles of S. japonicum cercariae is described. The protein is present in smooth muscles of the forebody and the stratified muscle of the tail. Within the stratified layer, the protein occurs predominantly in transverse arrays of sarcoplasmic reticulum. The localisation data suggest that the calponin-like protein of S. japonicum is involved in contraction of the stratified tail muscle. Furthermore, the presence of a calponin system in the stratified muscle suggests that this muscle is simply a superior form of muscle, closely related to smooth muscles that use a caldesmin-calponin system in contraction.

Cyclophilin of Schistosoma japonicum.

A 623-bp cDNA molecule encoding cyclophilin, a specific cyclosporin A-binding protein, has been isolated from Schistosoma japonicum using a heterologous cDNA probe from Echinococcus granulosus. The nucleotide sequence of this molecule has been determined, and the deduced amino acid sequence has revealed extensive homology with homologues of other species. Southern blot analysis suggests that S. japonicum cyclophilin is the product of a single-copy gene. The cloning of this cDNA will allow an investigation of cyclophilin as a possible target of the antischistosome effects of cyclosporin A.     

Purification of recombinant proteins based on the interaction between a phenothiazine-derivatized column and a calmodulin fusion tail.

A method to purify proteins by fusing them to the Ca2+-dependent protein calmodulin is described by using glutathione-S-transferase (GST) from Schistosoma japonicum as a model. Glutathione-S-transferase was genetically fused to calmodulin (CaM). The designed GST-CaM fusion protein has a selective factor Xa cleavage site located between the C-terminus of GST and the N-terminus of CaM. The recombinant fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, and the crude cell extract was loaded onto a phenothiazine affinity column in the presence of Ca2+. Calmodulin was used as an affinity tail to enable binding of the fusion protein to the phenothiazine column. Removal of Ca2+ with a calcium-complexing solution causes elution of the fusion protein. The GST-CaM fusion protein was then digested with factor Xa, and the target protein GST was isolated. The purity of the isolated GST was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).     

An amplified mass piezoelectric immunosensor for Schistosoma japonicum

An ultrasensitive piezoelectric immunosensor using an amplification path based on an insoluble biocatalyzed precipitation product has proposed for Schistosoma japonicum. A mercapto Schistosoma japonicum antigen was self-assembled onto the quartz crystal surface via an Au nanoparticle mediator monolayer to sense the Schistosoma japonicum antibody (SjAb). And the horseradish peroxidase labeled protein A conjugate which was bounded to the SjAb by a "sandwich" format was used as a biocatalyst for the oxidative precipitation of 4-chloro-1-naphthol by H(2)O(2) to yield the insoluble product benzo-4-chlorohexadienone, resulting in an amplified mass sensing of antigen-antibody interaction. The amount of the precipitate accumulated on the quartz crystal is controlled by the antibody concentration. The SjAb can be linearly determined in the range of 10-200 ngml(-1) and the detection limit reaches as low as 5 ngml(-1).

Novel avidin-like protein from a root nodule symbiotic bacterium, Bradyrhizobium japonicum

Bradyrhizobium japonicum is an important nitrogenfixing symbiotic bacterium, which can form root nodules on soybeans. These bacteria have a gene encoding a putative avidin- and streptavidin-like protein, which bears an amino acid sequence identity of only about 30% over the core regions with both of them. We produced this protein in Escherichia coli both as the full-length wild type and as a C-terminally truncated core form and showed that it is indeed a high affinity biotin-binding protein that resembles (strept)avidin structurally and functionally. Because of the considerable dissimilarity in the amino acid sequence, however, it is immunologically very different, and polyclonal rabbit and human antibodies toward (strept)avidin did not show significant cross-reactivity with it. Therefore this new avidin, named bradavidin, facilitates medical treatments such as targeted drug delivery, gene therapy, and imaging by offering an alternative tool for use if (strept)avidin cannot be used, because of a deleterious patient immune response for example. In addition to its medical value, bradavidin can be used both in other applications of avidin-biotin technology and as a source of new ideas when creating engineered (strept)avidin forms by changing or combining the desired parts, interface patterns, or specific residues within the avidin protein family. Moreover, the unexpected discovery of bradavidin indicates that the group of new and undiscovered bacterial avidin-like proteins may be both more diverse and more common than hitherto thought.
