We have studied the accessibility of 5'- 32P labeled oocyte and somatic 5S rRNAs from the fish Misgurnus fossilis L. to S1, T1 and cobra venom nucleases and have found that the cleavage sites of 5S rRNAs closely related in primary structures differ in these molecules. The data of nuclease hydrolyses revealed the existence of two conformers corresponding to renatured and partially denatured somatic 5S rRNA and capable of mutual interconversions. The exposed cytosine residues were located in oocyte and somatic 5S rRNAs converted into uridine ones by sodium bisulfite treatment. The data have been used to construct the secondary structure models of somatic and oocyte 5S rRNAs by means of specially devised computer program. These models differ in their 5'-halves which contain all the nucleotide substitutions in the primary structure, all differences in location of the exposed cytosine residues, and finally, in the cleavage pattern by the nucleases used. 相似文献

Exogenous human interferon 2 (IFN) and 2–5 oligoadenylates (2–5A) have been shown to cause at least a dual physiological effect in tobacco and wheat: (i) increased cytokinin activity and (ii) induced synthesis of numerous proteins, among which members of two groups of stress proteins have been identified, namely pathogenesis-related (PR) and heat shock (HS) proteins. These effects were observed only by low concentrations of these substances: IFN at 0.1–1 u/ml and 2–5A at 1–10 nM. 相似文献

We have studied the spectral properties of RNAase A containing a phosphopyridoxyl residue at the epsilon-NH2 group of Lys-7 or Lys-14. The overall conformations of the native and modified enzymes were shown to be rather similar. All three proteins have similar circular dichroism spectra within the 220-300-nm region, and similar thermal transition temperatures. All the changes in the RNAase A molecule modified are located in close proximity to the alkylated lysine residue. The phosphopyridoxyl group of (P-Pxy)-epsilon-Lys-41-RNAase A is situated directly at the enzyme active site and is 25% butied in the protein globule. The P-pyridoxyl group of (P-Pxy)-epsilon-Lys-7-RNAase A was shown to be located in the vicinity of the active site and to be more exposed to the solvent. In the pyridoxyl phosphate absorption band, optical activity is induced in both proteins. Study of the pH dependence of the changes occurring in the circular dichroism and absorption spectra has shown that in the modified proteins, the pyridoxyl phosphate chromophore is rather sensitive to the ionic state of the surrounding medium and serves as a "reporter" group when the relationship between structure and function of the RNAase A active site is being investigated. 相似文献

2'-Deoxy-2'-N-phthaloyl nucleosides were prepared from arabino nucleosides by triflate displacement with phthalimide in the presence of DBU. The corresponding phosphoramidites suitable for automated oligonucleotide synthesis were also synthesized. The scalability of described procedures was demonstrated on a 100-g scale preparation of 2'-deoxy-2'-amino-C phosphoramidite. 相似文献

A detailed analysis of the composition and properties of hydrophobic nuclei and microclusters in pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) has been carried out. Distance calculations for all noncovalently bonded atoms revealed that the average number of nonpolar contacts between a side chain of an amino acid and its neighbors is substantially larger if it involves hydrophobic residues rather than nonhydrophobic ones. However, the difference decreased when the number of contacts per nonpolar group and/or atom were calculated. Three main nuclei and five microclusters were identified, and their quantitative parameters were calculated. These nuclei include hydrophobic residues with a substantial number of nonpolar contacts with the environment (Phe 8, Phe 120, Phe 46, Tyr 25, Tyr 97, Ile 107, Leu 35, Ile 81, Val 54, Val 108, Met 29, Met 30). Hydrophobic nuclei of RNase A differ in shape and in composition, in the number of intranuclear contacts and of associated residues, as well as in their internal mobility. All eight cysteine residues are involved in nonpolar interactions with amino acid residues of hydrophobic nuclei. Active site amino acid residues of RNase A form a noncovalent contact network comprised of themselves, as well as of many conserved residues from hydrophobic nuclei. Sequence alignment with some other members of the RNase A family of proteins shows remarkable similarity in positions and in conservation of the main nonpolar residues, comprising cores of two (out of three) hydrophobic nuclei. A correlation was shown to exist between the average density of contacts for side-chain atoms and the number of amino acids to be found in the appropriate positions in the sequences of related mammalian ribonucleases. However, there are certain amino acid positions in the third, smaller nucleus, which are highly variable within the family. Taking into account that this nucleus is composed of residues belonging to different elements of the secondary structure, it is likely that the mutual orientation of these elements can be somehow different for these proteins. 相似文献

Several 2'-modified ribonucleoside phosphoramidites have been prepared for structure-activity studies of the hammerhead ribozyme. The aim of these studies was to design and synthesize catalytically active and nuclease-resistant ribozymes. Synthetic schemes for stereoselective synthesis of the R isomer of 2'-deoxy-2'-C-allyl uridine and cytidine phosphoramidites, based on the Keck allylation procedure, were developed. Protection of the 2'-amino group in 2'-deoxy-2'-aminouridine was optimized and a method for the convenient preparation of 5'-O-dimethoxytrityl-2'-deoxy-2'-phthalimidouridine 3'-O-(2-cyanoethyl-N,N-diisopropylphosphoramidite) was developed. During the attempted preparation of the 2'-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl-3'-O-phosphoramidite of arabinouridine a reversed regioselectivity in the silylation reaction, compared with the published procedure, was observed, as well as the unexpected formation of the 2,2'-anhydronucleoside. A possible mechanism for this cyclization is proposed. The synthesis of 2'-deoxy-2'-methylene and 2'-deoxy-2'-difluoromethylene uridine phosphoramidites is described. Based on a '5-ribose' model for essential 2'-hydroxyls in the hammerhead ribozyme these 2'-modified monomers were incorporated at positions U4 and/or U7 of the catalytic core. A number of these ribozymes had almost wild-type catalytic activity and improved stability in human serum, compared with an all-RNA molecule. 相似文献

The role of individual functional groups on cytidine 17 in the hammerhead ribozyme was assessed by introducing modified pyrimidines into two kinetically well-characterized hammerheads. As long as the pyrimide ring size was maintained, the modifications had no effect on substrate binding, suggesting that the C17-C3 hydrogen bond observed in the X-ray structure is energetically neutral. However, modification of the exocyclic amino group and the carbonyl of C17 reduced the cleavage rate significantly, indicating that these groups are important in stabilizing the transition-state structure. C17 modifications did not affect the ratio of the forward and reverse reaction rates. Thus, unlike that believed previously, C17 is another one of many hammerhead residues critical in maintaining its active structure. 相似文献
