苹果酸对L-谷氨酸发酵代谢流迁移的影响

为更全面深入地理解细胞内谷氨酸代谢的调控机制,以黄色短杆菌GDK-9为供试菌株,应用MATLAB软件和代谢流分析方法定量研究添加苹果酸后L-谷氨酸发酵中、后期胞内的代谢流迁移。在L-谷氨酸发酵中、后期添加2．0g／L苹果酸后,合成副产物L-丙氨酸和乳酸的代谢流量明显减少,分别降低了22．1％和16．5％,EMP途径和乙醛酸循环的代谢流分别减少了2．26％和9．09％,HMP途径的代谢流增加了2．26％,而L-谷氨酸生物合成的代谢流从73．59％增长至79．92％,较未添加前提高了6．33％。添加适量苹果酸能使关键节点发生代谢流迁移,提高了L-谷氨酸合成中心代谢途径的代谢流量。     

稻属中一个高度保守和组成型表达酪氨酸丝氨酸-酸酸双特性蛋白激酶基因的克隆与分析

从水稻中克隆了一个在稻属植物中高度保守和组成型表达的丝氨酸􊄯苏氨酸蛋白激酶基因(OsSTK)。该基因包含两个外显子和一个114 bp 的小内含子序列, 预测编码一个419 个氨基酸的蛋白质。该基因推导的氨基酸序列与其它已知序列的一致性均低于52%。利用从不同种和类型的野生稻克隆的部分该基因序列构建的系统树与野生稻的分类和进化关系相一致。OSPK N-端拥有一段富含丝氨酸、碱性氨基酸和带电荷氨基酸的特异性导肽序列, 其中包含“GDGDGDGDG”短重复序列。由于该基因蛋白激酶结构域中的VIb , VIII 和XI 亚结构域中同时具有酪氨酸蛋白激酶和丝氨酸􊄯苏氨酸蛋白激酶的特性, 推测该基因可能同时具有催化酪氨酸和丝氨酸、苏氨酸磷酸化的双重功能。     

The structure-function relationship of MSI7, a matrix protein from pearl oyster Pinctada fucata

We previously identified a matrix protein, MSI7, from pearl oyster Pinctada fucata. According to the structural analysis, the DGD site in the N-terminal of MSI7 is crucial for its role in the shell formation. In this study, we expressed a series of recombinant MSI7 proteins, including the wild-type and several mutants directed at the DGD site, using an Escherichia coli expression system to reveal the structure-function relationship of MSI7. Furthermore, in vitro crystallization, crystallization speed assay, and circular dichroism spectrometry were carried out. Results indicated that wild-type MSI7 could induce the nucleation of aragonite and inhibit the crystallization of calcite. However, none of the mutants could induce the nucleation of aragonite, but all of them could inhibit the crystallization of calcite to some extent. And all the proteins accelerated the crystallization process. Taken together, the results indicated that MSI7 could contribute to aragonite crystallization by inducing the nucleation of aragonite and inhibiting the crystallization of calcite, which agrees with our prediction about its role in the nacreous layer formation of the shell. The DGD site was critical for the induction of the nucleation of aragonite.     

Characterization of the putative tryptophan synthase β-subunit from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

The increasing emergence of drug-resistant tuberculosis （TB） poses a serious threat to the control of this disease. It is in urgent need to develop new TB drugs. Tryptophan biosynthetic pathway plays an important role in the growth and replication of Mycobacterium tuberculosis （Mtb）. The β-subunit of tryptophan synthase （TrpB） catalyzes the last step of the tryptophan biosynthetic pathway, and it might be a potential target for TB drug design. In this study, we overexpressed, purified, and characterized the putative TrpB-encoding gene Rv1612 in Mtb H37Rv. Results showed that Mtb His-TrpB optimal enzymatic activity is at pH 7.8 with 0.15 M Na^＋ or 0.18 M Mg^2＋ at 37℃. Structure analysis indicated that Mtb TrpB exhibited a typical β/α barrel structure. The amino acid residues believed to interact with the enzyme cofactor pyridoxal-5＇-phosphate were predicted by homology modeling and structure alignment. The role of these residues in catalytic activity of the Mtb His-TrpB was confirmed by site-directed mutagenesis. These results provided reassuring structural information for drug design based on TrpB.     

Immunoaffinity purification and characterization of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from human erythrocytes

A new procedure utilizing immunoaffinity column chromatography has been used for the purification of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase （GAPDH, EC 1.2.1.12） from human erythrocytes. The comparison between this rapid method （one step） and the tra- ditional procedure including ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by Blue Sepharose CL-6B chromatography shows that the new method gives a highest specific activity with a highest yield in a short time. The characterization of the purified GAPDH reveals that the native enzyme is a homotetramer of -150 kDa with an absolute specificity for the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide （NAD＋）. Western blot analysis using purified monospecific polyclonal antibodies raised against the purified GAPDH showed a single 36 kDa band corresponding to the enzyme subunit. Studies on the effect of temperature and pH on enzyme activity revealed optimal values of about 43℃ and 8.5, respectively. The kinetic parameters were also calculated： the Vmax was 4.3 U/mg and the Km values against G3P and NAD＋ were 20.7 and 17.8 μM, respectively. The new protocol described represents a simple, economic, and reproducible tool for the purification of GAPDH and can be used for other proteins.
