B细胞表位作图研究进展

抗原-抗体的特异性结合是由抗体表面的抗原决定簇与抗原表面的表位基序间的特异性互补识别决定的。B细胞表位作图既包括B细胞抗原表位基序的鉴定(即确定抗原分子上被B细胞表面受体或抗体特异性识别并结合的氨基酸基序),也包括绘制抗原蛋白的全部或接近全部的B细胞表位基序在其一级或高级结构上的分布图谱的过程。B细胞表位作图是研发表位疫苗、治疗性表位抗体药物和建立疾病免疫诊断方法的重要前提。目前,已经建立了多种B细胞表位鉴定或绘制抗原蛋白B细胞表位图谱的实验方法。基于抗原-单抗复合物晶体结构的X-射线晶体学分析的B细胞表位作图和基于抗原蛋白或抗原片段的突变体库筛选技术的B细胞表位作图可以在氨基酸水平,甚至原子水平上揭示抗原分子上与单抗特异性结合的关键基序;其它B细胞表位作图方法(如基于ELISA的肽库筛选技术)常常只能获得包含B细胞表位的抗原性肽段,因而,很少用于最小表位基序的鉴定;而改良的生物合成肽法多用于B细胞表位的最小基序鉴定和精细作图。鉴于每种B细胞作图方法都存在各自的优势与不足,B细胞表位作图往往需要多种作图方法的有机结合。本文对目前常用的B细胞表位作图的实验方法及其在动物疫病防控中的应用进行综述,以期为研究者设计最佳的表位作图方案提供参考。

替换基因片段对流感病毒生长的影响

摘要:【目的】探索流感病毒内部基因对病毒滴度的影响,构建高产流感疫苗种子病毒。【方法】将A/chicken/ZJ/China/2013(H5N1) (ZJ)病毒的6个内部基因或点突变体或聚合酶复合物基因逐个替换鸡胚高度适应的A/Puerto Rico/8/1934(H1N1)病毒(PR8)的相同基因,构建重组病毒,通过血凝试验比较重组病毒在鸡胚上的增殖滴度。【结果】PB2基因影响最大,替换后未能产生重组病毒;PB1、PA、M基因替换后,重组病毒滴度分别下降了3.7、3.4、3.0个滴度(log2);NS基因替换后基本没有影响;聚合酶复合体基因替换后,病毒滴度稍有下降(7.6 log2),没有提供像完全来自PR8的聚合酶复合体相同的生长特性(8.4 log2);PR8 PB2基因627位点替换成谷氨酸(E)后,病毒滴度从8.4 log2上升到8.7 log2。【结论】合适优化的基因组合可以通过病毒RNA与蛋白之间、蛋白与蛋白之间的相互作用促进病毒复制,从而筛选出能在鸡胚中高效复制的重组体,为高产流感疫苗的生产奠定基础。     

EB病毒蛋白BNLF2a阻止抗原转运蛋白TAP的构象变化

【背景】EB病毒是一个常见的病原,它能引起霍奇金淋巴瘤、伯基特淋巴瘤以及胃癌、鼻咽癌。该病毒编码的膜蛋白BNLF2a抑制抗原转运蛋白TAP (Transporter associated with antigen processing)从而逃逸T细胞的清除。TAP属于ABC(ATP-bindingcassette)转运蛋白超家族,是由TAP1和TAP2两个亚基构成的。TAP通过ATP提供能量,跨膜转运抗原多肽,这一过程伴随着构象变化。【目的】旨在揭示BNLF2a是否影响TAP的构象变化。【方法】TAP蛋白核酸结合结构域的二聚体界面的D-loop进行点突变,引入半胱氨酸。在表达和不表达BNLF2a情况下,采用氧化性的二价铜离子交联半胱氨酸,并通过Westernblot对比TAP的半胱氨酸形成二硫键的比例。【结果】BNLF2a表达使TAP被交联的比例增高。【结论】BNLF2a可能将TAP稳定在核苷酸结合结构域二聚化的构象,从而同时抑制ATP和抗原多肽结合到TAP上来。

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.     

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.

The effects of glutamine of the maintenance of embryogenic cultures of Cryptomeria japonica

Summary Embryogenic tissues of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) were induced on a modified Campbell and Durzan (CD) medium containing 1 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 600 mg l⁻¹ glutamine, and subcultured in the medium of the same composition for over 1 yr. This resulted in a mixed culture of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells. When embryogenic cells were isolated and cultured independently, their capacity to form embryogenic aggregates was lost. Thus, the non-embryogenic cells present within a mixed culture system were essential to the formation of embryogenic aggregates. When embryogenic tissues were isolated and cultured independently on a high glutamine-containing (2400 mg l⁻¹) medium, dry weights and endogenous levels of glutamine increased, and the tissue could generate a large number of embryogenic aggregates. Amino acid analysis of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells from the maintenance culture indicated a higher level of glutamine was present in the latter. The high endogenous level of glutamine in the non-embryogenic portion of mixed cell masses may be the supplier of glutamine for maintaining the embryogenic property of the tissues.     

Specificity of action of piperidylcholine derivatives as substrates of cholinesterases of various origin

The review deals with study of enzymologic properties of a novel highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate, N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium iodomethylate (“piperidylcholine”), and its 30 derivatives that were tested as effectors of cholinesterases of mammals and various species of Pacific squids. It was proven for the first time that responsible for specificity of action was structure of cyclic ammonium grouping of the alcohol part of molecule of the ester substrate. Analysis of specificity is performed based on enzymatic hydrolysis parameters—activity of catalytic center of cholinesterases and bimolecular constant of the reaction rate that are determined at optimal and low substrate concentrations. Among the specially synthesized group of thioester compounds there is revealed one more highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate—N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium.     

Interconnection of parameters of regulation system of lipid peroxidation and of morphophysiological parameters of mouse liver

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.
