The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-derived Epitope Prediction program (SNEP) is now available to the public. It predicts minor histocompatibility antigens (miHAgs), which are T-cell epitopes containing polymorphic spots, from proteins listed in the SWISS-PROT database. SNEP recognizes polymorphisms (termed VARIANT or CONFLICT in SWISS-PROT) and predicts potential T-cell epitopes within a chosen distance around the polymorphic residue. The prediction algorithm is based on the SYFPEITHI T-cell epitope prediction program. SNEP is able to search for proteins according to their accession numbers, sequence stretches or gene names, for example. The predictions are available for several human leucocyte antigen class I and class II allelic products, which allow for a rapid and precise evaluation of potential miHAgs within polymorphic antigens. 相似文献

Although south‐Slavic populations have been studied to date from various aspects, the population of Serbia, occupying the central part of the Balkan Peninsula, is still genetically understudied at least at the level of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation. We analyzed polymorphisms of the first and the second mtDNA hypervariable segments (HVS‐I and HVS‐II) and informative coding‐region markers in 139 Serbians to shed more light on their mtDNA variability, and used available data on other Slavic and neighboring non‐Slavic populations to assess their interrelations in a broader European context. The contemporary Serbian mtDNA profile is consistent with the general European maternal landscape having a substantial proportion of shared haplotypes with eastern, central, and southern European populations. Serbian population was characterized as an important link between easternmost and westernmost south‐Slavic populations due to the observed lack of genetic differentiation with all other south‐Slavic populations and its geographical positioning within the Balkan Peninsula. An increased heterogeneity of south Slavs, most likely mirroring turbulent demographic events within the Balkan Peninsula over time (i.e., frequent admixture and differential introgression of various gene pools), and a marked geographical stratification of Slavs to south‐, east‐, and west‐Slavic groups, were also found. A phylogeographic analyses of 20 completely sequenced Serbian mitochondrial genomes revealed not only the presence of mtDNA lineages predominantly found within the Slavic gene pool (U4a2a*, U4a2a1, U4a2c, U4a2g, HV10), supporting a common Slavic origin, but also lineages that may have originated within the southern Europe (H5*, H5e1, H5a1v) and the Balkan Peninsula in particular (H6a2b and L2a1k).

TonB dependent transporters (TBDT) are an essential protein family in bacteria involved in the uptake of a broad variety of molecules such as siderophore-chelated iron, which was the first described substrate. Meanwhile it is known that TBDTs are involved in the uptake of many metals, sugars and polypeptides. The action of TBDTs is regulated and energized by the plasma membrane anchored TonB, which is charged by a proton pump. The number of the genes coding for TBDTs varies in different species, which might reflect environmental adaptations or evolutionary variations of the system. For example, in the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 the large number of 22 genes coding for TBDTs has been identified and the expression of these genes has been explored in the absence of iron or copper as well as under nitrogen starvation. We describe the analysis of the expression of the TBDT genes and the according cytoplasmic-membrane localized components; the latter appear to have a lower degree of complexity in Anabaena sp. PCC 7120. This analysis unravels that the response is not sole dependent on the metal supply, but also on cell culture densities. In addition, we present a large group of FhuA-like genes which is expressed highest under standard conditions suggesting a function distinct from iron or copper transport. The genes are clustered according to the expression profile and the consequences for our understanding of the transport systems in Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 are discussed. 相似文献

Only two mitochondrial haplotypes (Korea and Japan) of Varroa destructor, the ectoparasitic honey bee mite, are known to be capable of infesting and successfully reproducing in Apis mellifera colonies worldwide. Varroa destructor (then called Varroa jacobsoni) was observed in Serbia for the first time in 1976. In order to obtain insight into the genetic variability of the mites parasitizing A. mellifera we analyzed 45 adult female mites sampled from nine localities dispersed throughout Serbia. Four fragments within cox1, atp6, cox3 and cytb mtDNA genes were sequenced. The Korea haplotype of V. destructor was found to be present at all localities, but also two new haplotypes (Serbia 1 and Peshter 1) were revealed, based on cox1 and cytb sequence variability. The simultaneous occurrence of Korea and Serbia 1 haplotypes was observed at five localities, whereas Peshter 1 haplotype was identifed at only one place. 相似文献

Iron is a member of a small group of nutrients that limits aquatic primary production. Mechanisms for utilizing iron have to be efficient and adapted according to the ecological niche. In respect to iron acquisition cyanobacteria, prokaryotic oxygen evolving photosynthetic organisms can be divided into siderophore‐ and non‐siderophore‐producing strains. The results presented in this paper suggest that the situation is far more complex. To understand the bioavailability of different iron substrates and the advantages of various uptake strategies, we examined iron uptake mechanisms in the siderophore‐producing cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120. Comparison of the uptake of iron complexed with exogenous (desferrioxamine B, DFB) or to self‐secreted (schizokinen) siderophores by Anabaena sp. revealed that uptake of the endogenous produced siderophore complexed to iron is more efficient. In addition, Anabaena sp. is able to take up dissolved, ferric iron hydroxide species (Fe′) via a reductive mechanism. Thus, Anabaena sp. exhibits both, siderophore‐ and non‐siderophore‐mediated iron uptake. While assimilation of Fe′ and FeDFB are not induced by iron starvation, FeSchizokinen uptake rates increase with increasing iron starvation. Consequently, we suggest that Fe′ reduction and uptake is advantageous for low‐density cultures, while at higher densities siderophore uptake is preferred. 相似文献
