基于马尔科夫链的胰蛋白酶肽段蛋白酶切位点概率预测

在基于质谱技术的蛋白质鉴定过程中,数据库搜索是主要的方法。漏切位点和酶切规则决定了图谱候选肽段的范围,是数据库搜索算法的重要参数。对于常用的胰蛋白酶切来说,除了局部构象、三维结构、实验条件,以及其它偶然因素会影响赖氨酸K或者精氨酸R后的位点能否被酶切外,该位点附近的其它氨基酸也会影响蛋白水解酶的酶切效果。从质谱图谱中时常会鉴定出包含漏切位点的肽段,因此,预测蛋白质的酶切位点能够为数据库搜索算法提供更为可靠的模型,也能够为了解和分析蛋白质的酶切规律提供依据。本文提出了一种基于马尔科夫(Markov)链的预测方法,能够利用蛋白质的序列信息来预测候选酶切位点的酶切概率,在蛋白酶切过程中,预测肽段的覆盖率可以达到85%以上。

Sequence and molecular characterization of a multicopy invasion plasmid antigen gene, ipaH, of Shigella flexneri.

A lambda gt11 expression library of Tn5-tagged invasion plasmid pWR110 (from Shigella flexneri serotype 5, strain M90T-W) contained a set of recombinants encoding a 60-kilodalton protein (designated IpaH) recognized by rabbit antisera raised against S. flexneri invasion plasmid antigens (J. M. Buysse, C. K. Stover, E. V. Oaks, M. M. Venkatesan, and D. J. Kopecko, J. Bacteriol. 169:2561-2569, 1987). Southern blot analysis of wild-type S. flexneri serotype 5 invasion plasmid DNA (pWR100) digested with various combinations of five restriction enzymes and hybridized with defined ipaH probes showed complex hybridization patterns resulting from multiple copies of the ipaH gene on pWR100. DNA sequence analysis of a 2.9-kilobase (kb) EcoRI fragment directing IpaH antigen synthesis in plasmid recombinant pWR390 revealed an open reading frame coding for a 532-amino-acid protein (60.8 kilodaltons); this size matched well with the estimated size of IpaH determined by Western blot analysis of M90T-W cells and maxicell analysis of Escherichia coli HB101(pWR390) transformants. Examination of the amino acid sequence of IpaH revealed a hydrophilic protein with six evenly spaced 14-residue (L-X2-L-P-X-L-P-X2-L-X2-L) repeat motifs in the amino-terminal end of the molecule. Southern blot analysis of HindIII-digested pWR100 DNA probed with defined segments of the pWR390 2.9-kb insert demonstrated that the multiple band hybridization pattern resulted from repeats of a significant portion of the ipaH structural gene in five distinct HindIII fragments (9.8, 7.8, 4.5, 2.5, and 1.4 kb). Affinity-purified IpaH antibody, used to monitor the expression of the antigen in M90T-W cells grown at 30 and 37 degrees C, showed that IpaH synthesis was not regulated by growth temperature.

人胰岛素A,B链基因的合成,克隆及其在大肠杆菌中的表达

Human insulin A and B chain genes were designed and synthesized by using a rapid and simple method. The synthesized A and B chain genes were cloned separately. The expression (plasmids) pWR 590-HIA and pWR 590-HIB were constructed, and the two plasmids can direct the synthesis of the approximately 590 amino acid-long truncated beta-galactosidases fused to human insulin A or B chains. The fused A or B chain proteins were isolated from the fermented cells and cleaved with BrCN. The resulting mixtures were sulfonated and the sulfonated A and B chains were purified. Human insulin was obtained by using an A and B chain combination method.     

Role of IS1 in the conversion of virulence (Vi) antigen expression in Enterobacteriaceae

Summary When Escherichia coli HB101 harbors pWR127, a plasmid comprising the viaB gene from Citrobacter freundii WR7004 and the ColEl-derived pACKC1, the strain produces the virulence (Vi) antigen. Vi antigen expression is abolished (Vi^– phenotype), however, when an IS1 or IS1-like DNA element inserts into the viaB region. To determine the sites of IS1 insertion, pWR127 DNAs extracted from 95 independently isolated Vi^– strains were analyzed by digestion with the restriction endonuclease PstI and agarose gel electrophoresis. Ten insertion sites were found distributed nonrandomly in an area of about 1.3 kb. Nine Vi⁺ strains (two Citrobacter, two E. coli, and five Salmonella strains), four of which contain pWR127, were then tested for the presence of IS1 by DNA-DNA hybridization. Of the nine strains, five were stable Vi⁺ and did not contain IS1. The other four which generated Vi^– strains, contained IS1. When pRR134, a plasmid that contains IS1 was transferred into a stable Vi⁺ Salmonella typhimurium strain carrying pWR127 (OU5140), Vi^– strains were produced from which pWR127 derivatives carrying IS1 inserts could be isolated. It appears, therefore, that the presence of an IS1I or IS1-like element in a strain is required for conversion of the Vi⁺ expression state to the Vi^– expression state.

Plasmid partition system of the P1par family from the pWR100 virulence plasmid of Shigella flexneri

P1par family members promote the active segregation of a variety of plasmids and plasmid prophages in gram-negative bacteria. Each has genes for ParA and ParB proteins, followed by a parS partition site. The large virulence plasmid pWR100 of Shigella flexneri contains a new P1par family member: pWR100par. Although typical parA and parB genes are present, the putative pWR100parS site is atypical in sequence and organization. However, pWR100parS promoted accurate plasmid partition in Escherichia coli when the pWR100 Par proteins were supplied. Unique BoxB hexamer motifs within parS define species specificities among previously described family members. Although substantially different from P1parS from the P1 plasmid prophage of E. coli, pWR100parS has the same BoxB sequence. As predicted, the species specificity of the two types proved identical. They also shared partition-mediated incompatibility, consistent with the proposed mechanistic link between incompatibility and species specificity. Among several informative sequence differences between pWR100parS and P1parS is the presence of a 21-bp insert at the center of the pWR100parS site. Deletion of this insert left much of the parS activity intact. Tolerance of central inserts with integral numbers of helical DNA turns reflects the critical topology of these sites, which are bent by binding the host IHF protein.     

大肠杆菌青霉素G酰化酶基因及其邻近区域的核苷酸全序列

Some of microorganisms have been known to possess penicillin G acylase activity. The E. coli derived penicillin G acylase (PGA) can catalyze the conversion of penicillin G into phenylacetic acid and 6-amino-penicillanic acid, the latter is used as the starting compound for the industrial formation of semi-synthetic penicillins. Apart from its industrial importance, the enzyme PGA displays a number of interesting properties. Catalytically active enzyme is localized in the periplasmic space of E. coli cells and composed of two dissimilar subunits. The two subunits are apparently produced from a precursor protein, via a processing pathway hitherto unique in its features for a prokaryotic enzyme. The studies on processing of the precursor and on the relationship between structure and function of the mature enzyme are important theoretically. Previously we cloned a 3.5 kb DNA fragment from a strain (E. coli AS 1.76), which displays PGA activity. In this paper, we report a nucleotide sequence of the 3.5 kb DNA fragment containing PGA gene. After insertion of the DNA fragment into EcoR I and Hind III sites in pWR 13, pPGA 20 had been obtained. We subcloned the Hind III and Bg1 II treated fragment of 1.6 kb in length from pPGA 20 into Hind III and BamH I sites of pWR 13 to get a pPGA 1.6, and Bg1 II and EcoR I treated fragment of 1.9 kb in length into BamH I and EcoR I sites of pWR 13 to get a pPGA 1.9. The linearized pPGA 1.9 which were digested with appropriate restriction enzymes were progressively shortened from both ends respectively by digestion with Bal 31 nuclease, followed by cleavage of shortened target DNA off vector DNA molecules with appropriate restriction enzymes. The series of the DNA fragments shortened from EcoR I end were then cloned into plasmid pWR 13 which had previously digested with Hind III and Sma I enzymes (Fig. 1). The DNA fragment cloned in pWR 13 were directly sequenced on the resulted plasmids by using primer I and primer II. Thus we have obtained the complete nucleotide sequence of the 3.5 kb DNA fragment. The 3.5 kb fragment contains an intact PGA gene which is 2.6 kb.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
