Synthesis, secretion and processing of alpha-factor-interferon fusion proteins in yeast.

A gene fusion consisting of 960 base pairs of 5'-flanking region of the yeast MF alpha 1 gene, 257 base pairs coding for alpha-factor prepro sequence, and a modified human IFN-alpha 1 gene was constructed. MAT alpha cells containing the chimeric gene synthesized and secreted active IFN-alpha 1 into the growth medium. The secreted interferon molecules contained the last 4 amino acids of alpha-factor prepro sequence and the amino acids encoded by the DNA modifications introduced at the beginning of IFN-alpha 1 gene. DNA sequences coding for these amino acids were removed by oligonucleotide-directed in vitro mutagenesis. Yeast cells transformed with expression plasmids containing the altered junction synthesized and secreted human IFN-alpha 1 with the natural NH2-terminus.     

Human transforming growth factor-alpha: precursor structure and expression in E. coli

Transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) is secreted by many human tumors and can induce the reversible transformation of nontransformed cell lines. Using long synthetic deoxyoligonucleotides as hybridization probes we isolated an exon coding for a portion of TGF-alpha from a human genomic DNA library. Utilizing this exon as a probe, a cell line derived from a human renal cell carcinoma was identified as a source of TGF-alpha mRNA. A cloned TGF-alpha cDNA was isolated from a cDNA library prepared using RNA from this cell line, and was found to encode a precursor polypeptide of 160 amino acids. The 50 amino acid mature TGF-alpha produced by expression of the appropriate coding sequence in E. coli binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor and induces the anchorage independence of normal mammalian cells in culture.     

Cloning, nucleotide sequence, and expression of one of two genes coding for yeast elongation factor 1 alpha

One gene coding for yeast cytoplasmic elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1 alpha) was isolated by colony hybridization using a cDNA probe prepared from purified EF-1 alpha mRNA. A recombinant plasmid, pLB1, with a 6-kilobase yeast DNA insert, was found by hybrid selection and translation experiments to carry the entire gene. The nucleotide sequence of the gene with its 5'- and 3'-flanking regions was determined. The 5' and 3' ends of EF-1 alpha mRNA were localized by the S1 nuclease mapping technique. The cloned gene, called TEF1, encodes a protein of 458 amino acids (Mr = 50,071) in a single, uninterrupted reading frame. The amino acid sequence shows a strong homology with several domains of Artemia salina EF-1 alpha cytoplasmic factor, as evidenced by diagonal dot matrix analysis. Protein sequence homology is comparatively much lower with the yeast mitochondrial elongation factor. S1 nuclease mapping of the mRNA, hybridization analysis of chromosomal DNA using intragenic or extragenic DNA probes, and gene disruption experiments demonstrated the existence of two genes coding for the cytoplasmic elongation factor EF-1 alpha/haploid genome. The presence of an intact chromosomal TEF1 gene is not essential for growth of haploid yeast cells.

Expression of synthetic human-lysozyme gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: use of a synthetic chicken-lysozyme signal sequence for secretion and processing

A multicopy plasmid was constructed to direct the synthesis and secretion of human lysozyme (HLY) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This plasmid contains a synthetic chicken-lysozyme signal sequence (SIG) and a synthetic HLY structural gene, both inserted between the yeast GAL10 promoter and 2 mu plasmid FLP (flip-flop recombination gene) terminator. The resulting plasmid directed the expression of the hybrid pre-lysozyme, with most of the HLY activity secreted into the culture medium and extracellular periplasmic space. The HLY activity in the culture medium increased with cell growth. The yeast accurately processed the hybrid precursor at the junction between the chicken SIG and the coding sequence downstream, yielding mature HLY. HLY purified from the culture medium was homogeneous and displayed specific activity identical to that of authentic HLY.     

Cloning and mutational analysis of the gene encoding subunit C of yeast vacuolar H(+)-ATPase.

A DNA fragment containing the gene encoding subunit C of vaculor H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) was cloned from a yeast library. The predicted amino acid sequence indicated that the C subunit consists of 373 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 42,287 Da. The protein from yeast is 37% identical in its amino acid sequence to the C subunit of bovine V-ATPase. The DNA fragment that was cloned in this study contained two additional reading frames. At the 5' end an amino acid sequence that is homologous to Artemia elongation factor 1 was detected. At the 3' end the N-terminal part of a kinesin-like protein was observed. The gene encoding subunit C of the V-ATPase was interrupted, and the resulting mutant could not grow at high pH and was sensitive to low and high Ca2+ concentrations in the growth medium. Transformation of the mutant by a plasmid containing the gene encoding subunit C repaired the phenotype of the mutant. Substitution of more than half of the coding region by a corresponding DNA fragment encoding the bovine subunit C resulted in a phenotype indistinguishable from wild type. Immunological studies with the disruptant mutant revealed that subunit C is necessary for the assembly of the catalytic sector of the enzyme.     

Expression line approach to recombinant human epidermal growth factor into the yeast,Pichia pastoris from Huh-7 cell line

Beta-urogastrone also known as human epidermal growth factor is a key member of epidermal growth factor family having role in cell proliferation and differentiation in vivo as well as in vitro. Human epidermal growth factor gene has been isolated from different tissues but the method of isolation is technically difficult and complicated as it deals with biopsies. Here we isolated mature partial human epidermal growth factor gene from Huh-7 cell line, amplified and abridged toward mature coding region with three steps PCR, sequenced for homology with wild type human epidermal growth factor gene, inbuilt with sites of interest and cloned in Pichia pastoris for expression study. Isolated mature human epidermal growth factor gene from Huh-7 cell line showed 100 % sequence homology to wild type human epidermal growth factor gene and gives the native expression for human epidermal growth factor peptide. In this study we report that Huh-7 cell line is an easy source for the particular gene of human epidermal growth factor isolation and we are also suggesting P. pastoris is an expression system to produce recombinant human epidermal growth factor of the therapeutic importance resembling to the natural human system.     

Antisense EGFR sequence reverses the growth properties of human liver carcinoma cell line BEL-7404 in vitro

A recombinant plasmid containing a full length human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) cDNA sequence in antisense orientation was transferred into cells of a human liver carcinoma cell line BEL-7404. Compared with the control cell clone JX-0 transferred with the vector plasmid and the parent BEL-7404 cells, the antisense EGFR transferred cell clone JX-1 showed a decreased EGFR gene expression and reduced significantly the growth potential either in anchorage-dependent or anchorage-independent growth. Furthermore, JX-1 cells appeared to be distinctly dependent on serum concentration for monolayer growth. The results suggested that antisense EGFR could partly block the EGFR gene expression and reverse the malignant growth properties of human liver carcinoma cells in vitro.     

Structure of a yeast pheromone gene (MF alpha): a putative alpha-factor precursor contains four tandem copies of mature alpha-factor

We have cloned and sequenced a gene (MF alpha) coding for alpha-factor, a tridecapeptide mating factor secreted by yeast alpha cells. A plasmid carrying the MF alpha gene was identified by screening for production of alpha-factor by mat alpha 2 mutants, which fail to secrete alpha-factor because of simultaneous synthesis and degradation of the factor. The cloned segment codes for four mature alpha-factor within a putative precursor of 165 amino acids. The putative precursor begins as a signal sequence for secretion. The next segment, of approximately 60 amino acids, contains three potential glycosylation sites. The carboxy-terminal half of the precursor contains four tandem copies of mature alpha-factor, each preceded by spacer peptides of six or eight amino acids (variations of Lys-Arg-Glu-Ala-Asp-Ala-Glu-Ala), which are hypothesized to contain proteolytic processing signals.
