We have recently demonstrated that the 1CF11 monoclonal antibody bound human milk lactoferrin (hLf) through the recognition of two distinct portions of the molecule, namely the N-glycan-relevant and -irrelevant structural elements. In this present study, we prepared four immunoreactive peptide fractions containing N-linked glycan from tryptic digests of reduced and alkylated hLf by using a concanavalin A lectin column and reverse-phase HPLC. Deglycosylation of these fractions and a competitive binding assay using fucosylated oligosaccharides revealed that the non-reducing terminal fucose residue in N-linked glycan(s) played a significant role in recognizing the N-glycan-relevant element in hLf by 1CF11. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibody 1CF11 has been suggested to specifically recognize a certain carbohydrate epitope shared by glycoproteins in human external secretions. We examined the effect of cleaving the polypeptide backbone and removing N-linked oligosaccharides on the reactivity with 1CF11 of human milk lactoferrin (hLf) to elucidate the structural features of the 1CF11 epitope. We reveal by treating hLF with trypsin and/or N-glycosidase that both the N-glycan-relevant and N-glycan-irrelevant structural elements were involved in the recognition of hLf by 1CF11. 相似文献

Although lactoferrins (Lfs) isolated from milk of various mammals exhibit a close structural relationship, they show species-specific binding to cells. To define the specificity of recognition of human (hLf), bovine (bLf) and murine (mLf) lactoferrin by human intestinal cells, we analysed the binding of the three proteins to a subclone derived from human carcinoma cell line HT29. We observed that hLf and bLf interact with two types of binding sites (Kd: 63±22 nM; 0.7±0.2 μM) while mLf was recognized only by the lowest affinity binding sites with a lower number of binding sites. Using N-terminal deleted human Lf variants, we found that the sequence G1RRRR5 is mainly responsible for the interactions with HT29 cells. Lactoferrin-binding sites on the surface of HT29 cells were further identified as heparan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate glycosaminoglycans. We conclude that the presence of the sequence A1PRK4 in bLf and K1ATT4 in mLf provides an insight into why the interaction of bLf with cell membrane-associated glycosaminoglycans is similar to that of hLf and why binding of these lactoferrin species differs from that of murine Lf. 相似文献

Human lactoferrin (hLf) is an iron-binding glycoprotein that has been considered to play many biological roles in the human,
including the stimulation of the immune system, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects, and regulation of iron absorption.
We generated transgenic Siberian ginseng (Acanthopanax senticosus) cell cultures producing a functional hLf protein using the signal peptide sequence from the endoplasmic reticulum and driven
by an oxidative stress-inducibleSWPA2 promoter which is highly expressed in plant cell cultures. The production of hLf increased proportionally to cell growth
and showed a maximal level (up to 3.6% of total soluble protein) at the stationary phase in suspension cultures. Full-length
hLf protein was identified by immunoblot analysis in transgenic cell cultures of Siberian ginseng. Recombinant hLf (rhLf)
was purified from suspension cells of Siberian ginseng by ammonium sulfate precipitation, cation-exchange and gel filtration
chromatography. N-terminal sequences of rhLf were identical to native hLf (nhLf). The overall monosaccharide composition of
rhLf showed the presence of plant specific xylose while sialic acid is absent. Antibacterial activity of purified rhLf was
higher than that of nhLf. Taken together, we anticipate that medicinal Siberian ginseng cultured cells, as demonstrated by
this study, will be a biotechnologically useful source for commercial production of functional hLf not requiring further purification. 相似文献

We examined a large number of individual human and animal saliva samples for the reactivity with 1CF11, a mouse monoclonal antibody previously produced for the characterization of human milk mucin and apparently recognizing a certain carbohydrate antigenic structure shared by various human glycoproteins in secretions. The results obtained here confirm the unique occurrence of 1CF11 epitope in each and every saliva sample from humans and Old world monkeys as well, though a vast variety was observed among individual saliva samples in the immunological reactivity with 1CF11. 相似文献

A cell surface display system was developed in Pichia pastoris using the gene TIP1, encoding the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ScTIP). Human lactoferrin cDNA (hLf) was fused to a full-length TIP1 DNA (ScTIP
630
) or a short-TIP1 fragment (ScTIP
120
) encoding the 40 C-terminal amino acids of ScTIP. Both hLf-ScTIP fusion genes were expressed in P. pastoris SMD 1168. The fused protein was detected by western blotting after extraction of the lysed recombinant cells with Triton
X-100, urea, and Triton X-100 plus urea, suggesting that the hLf is associated with the membrane. The localization of surface-displayed
hLf was confirmed by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy and flow cytometric analysis using FITC-labeled anti-hLf antibody,
suggesting that hLf was successfully located at the surface of P. pastoris. The intact recombinant cells and cell lysates showed antibacterial activity against target microorganisms, meaning that
the expressed hLf was biologically active. The results indicated that the ScTIP anchoring motif is useful for cell surface
display of foreign proteins in P. pastoris. 相似文献

Differential glycosylation of natural hLf and rhLf from hLf-transgenic mice, which harbored a 146 Kb BAC insert that includes the intact hLf gene sequence, was studied in the present report. There were significant differences between the immunoblotting results of rhLf and natural hLf, which were denatured with nonreducing SDS sample buffer. The differences disappeared after rhLf and natural hLf samples were digested with N-glycosidase F, respectively. The results showed that there were significant differences (P < 0.01) between the glycosylation of natural hLf and rhLf that were purified, respectively, from milk samples of seven hLf-transgenic mouse lines. 相似文献

In order to count Clostridium tyrobutyricum spores in milk after membrane filtration, murine 21E7-B12 monoclonal antibody was produced. Elution of the monoclonal antibody from this antigen, the flagellar filament protein, by carbohydrate ligands was used to study the epitope structure. A competitive elution of an anti-dextran monoclonal antibody by carbohydrate ligands served as a control in order to validate the immunological tool applied to flagellin epitope study. The carbohydrate moiety of flagellin contained D -glucose and N-acetyl-glucosamine in a molar ratio of 11:1 as determined by gas-liquid chromatography and 2 low-abundancy unidentified compounds. In ELISA, D -glucose and N-acetyl-glucosamine did not dissociate the antibody-flagellin complex contrary to maltose, maltotriose, maltotetraose and maltopentaose. The efficiency of elution increased from the dimer to the pentamer and became nil for maltohexaose and maltoheptaose. The fact that the hexamer and heptamer could not react with the 21E7-B12 monoclonal antibody could be explained by a drastic conformational change. The overall stretched maltopentaose switch to a helical-shaped maltoheptaose which could not fit the 21E7-B12 monoclonal antibody antigen-combining site. Thus, flagellin epitope may contain α(1→4) linked glucose residues plus either N-actyl-glucosamine or an unidentified compound that maintain it in an extended shape. 相似文献

The activator of Hsp90 ATPase 1, Aha1, has been shown to participate in the Hsp90 chaperone cycle by stimulating the low intrinsic ATPase activity of Hsp90. To elucidate the structural basis for ATPase stimulation of human Hsp90 by human Aha1, we have developed novel mass spectrometry approaches that demonstrate that the N- and C-terminal domains of Aha1 cooperatively bind across the dimer interface of Hsp90 to modulate the ATP hydrolysis cycle and client activity in vivo. Mutations in both the N- and C-terminal domains of Aha1 impair its ability to bind Hsp90 and stimulate its ATPase activity in vitro and impair in vivo the ability of the Hsp90 system to modulate the folding and trafficking of wild-type and variant (ΔF508) cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) responsible for the inherited disease cystic fibrosis (CF). We now propose a general model for the role of Aha1 in the Hsp90 ATPase cycle in proteostasis whereby Aha1 regulates the dwell time of Hsp90 with client. We suggest that Aha1 activity integrates chaperone function with client folding energetics by modulating ATPase sensitive N-terminal dimer structural transitions, thereby protecting transient folding intermediates in vivo that could contribute to protein misfolding systems disorders such as CF when destabilized. 相似文献

To establish a strategy for the comprehensive identification of human N‐myristoylated proteins, the susceptibility of human cDNA clones to protein N‐myristoylation was evaluated by metabolic labeling and MS analyses of proteins expressed in an insect cell‐free protein synthesis system. One‐hundred‐and‐forty‐one cDNA clones with N‐terminal Met‐Gly motifs were selected as potential candidates from ~2000 Kazusa ORFeome project human cDNA clones, and their susceptibility to protein N‐myristoylation was evaluated using fusion proteins, in which the N‐terminal ten amino acid residues were fused to an epitope‐tagged model protein. As a result, the products of 29 out of 141 cDNA clones were found to be effectively N‐myristoylated. The metabolic labeling experiments both in an insect cell‐free protein synthesis system and in the transfected COS‐1 cells using full‐length cDNA revealed that 27 out of 29 proteins were in fact N‐myristoylated. Database searches with these 27 cDNA clones revealed that 18 out of 27 proteins are novel N‐myristoylated proteins that have not been reported previously to be N‐myristoylated, indicating that this strategy is useful for the comprehensive identification of human N‐myristoylated proteins from human cDNA resources. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori has high global infection rates and can cause other undesirable clinical manifestations such as duodenal ulcer (DU) and gastric
cancer (GC). Frequencies of re-infection after therapeutic clearance and rates of DU versus GC vary geographically and differ
markedly between developed and developing countries, which suggests additional factors may be involved. The possibility that,
in vivo, lactoferrin (Lf) may play a subtle role in modulating micronutrient availability or bacterial internalisation with
implications for disease etiology is considered. Lf is an iron binding protein produced in mammals that has antimicrobial
and immunomodulatory properties. Some bacteria that regularly colonise mammalian hosts have adapted to living in high Lf environments
and we investigated if this included the gastric pathogen H.
pylori. We found that H.
pylori was able to use iron from fully iron-saturated human Lf (hLf) whereas partially iron-saturated hLf (apo) did not increase
H.
pylori growth. Instead, apo-hLf increased adherence to and internalisation of bacteria into cultured epithelial cells. By increasing
internalisation, we speculate that apo-human lactoferrin may contribute to H.
pylori’s ability to persistence in the human stomach, an observation that potentially has implications for the risk of H.
pylori-associated disease. 相似文献

We describe here the development of a new hybridoma cell line, CF12F6, that produces a specific antibody to Botryllus schlosseri (a colonial tunicate). The monoclonal antibody was isotyped as IgG1 (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), and the cellular localization of the antigenic epitope that reacts specifically with CF12F6 was confined to the cells of the pyloric gland of the zooid (by immunohistochemistry). The pyloric gland participates in osmoregulation, digestion, glycogen storage, and various other secretion functions that will be studied further by the use of monoclonal antibody CF12F6, the first in botryllid ascidians that recognizes cells of a whole, single organ. 相似文献

Liposomes prepared from naturally occurring biodegradable and nontoxic lipids are good candidates for local delivery of therapeutic agents. Treatment of arthritis by intra-articular administration of anti-inflammatory drugs encapsulated in liposomes prolongs the residence time of the drug in the joint. We have previously shown that intra-articular injection of human lactoferrin (hLf), a glycoprotein that possesses anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities, into mice with collagen-induced arthritis reduces inflammation. We have now investigated the possibility of using liposome-entrapped hLf as a delivery system to prolong hLf retention at sites of local inflammation such as the rheumatoid joint. Entrapment of hLf in negatively charged liposomes enhanced its accumulation in cultured human synovial fibroblasts from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, compared with positively charged formulations or free protein. However, in the presence of synovial fluid, positively charged liposomes with entrapped hLf were more stable than the negatively charged formulations. In vivo experiments in mice with collagen-induced arthritis showed that the positive liposomes were more efficient in prolonging the residence time of hLf in the inflamed joint as compared with other liposomes. Thus, the amount of hLf retained in the joint after 2 hr was 60% of the injected dose in the case of positive liposomes and only 16% for negative pH-sensitive liposomes. The results suggest that entrapment of hLf in positively charged liposomes may modify its pharmacodynamic profile and be of therapeutic benefit in the treatment of RA and other local inflammatory conditions. 相似文献

Although a large body of structural data exists for bronchial mucins from cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic bronchitis (CB) patients, little is known about terminal structures carried on poly-N-acetyllactosamine antennae. Such structures are of interest because they are potential ligands for bacterial adhesins and other lectins. In this study, we have used fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB-MS) to examine terminal sequences released by endo--galactosidase from O-glycans obtained by reductive elimination of bronchial mucins purified from the sputum of 8 CF and 8 CB patients. Our data show that, although the polylactosamine antennae of CF and CB mucins have several terminal sequences in common, they differ significantly in their sialyl Lewisx (NeuAc2-3Gal1-4[Fuc1-3]GlcNAc1-) content. Thus all examined mucins from CF patients carry sialyl Lewisx on their polylactosamine antennae, whereas this type of epitope is present on only three out of the eight CB mucins examined, notably in the airways of one CB patient which were heavily infected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa as are the airways of all the CF patients. This suggests that, in airway mucins, the expression of sialyl Lewisx on polylactosamine antennae is probably more related to inflammation and infection than to a direct effect of the CF defect. 相似文献

MS was used to characterize the 24 kDa human growth hormone (hGH) glycoprotein isoform and determine the locus of O‐linked oligosaccharide attachment, the oligosaccharide branching topology, and the monosaccharide sequence. MALDI‐TOF/MS and ESI‐MS/MS analyses of glycosylated 24 kDa hGH tryptic peptides showed that this hGH isoform is a product of the hGH normal gene. Analysis of the glycoprotein hydrolysate by high‐performance anion‐exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection and HPLC with fluorescent detection for N‐acetyl neuraminic acid (NeuAc) yielded the oligosaccharide composition (NeuAc2, N‐acetyl galactosamine1, Gal1). After β‐elimination to release the oligosaccharide from glycosylated 24 kDa hGH, collision‐induced dissociation of tryptic glycopeptide T6 indicated that there had been an O‐linked oligosaccharide attached to Thr‐60. The sequence and branching structure of the oligosaccharide were determined by ESI‐MS/MS analysis of tryptic glycopeptide T6. The mucin‐like O‐oligosaccharide sequence linked to Thr‐60 begins with N‐acetyl galactosamine and branches in a bifurcated topology with one appendage consisting of galactose followed by NeuAc and the other consisting of a single NeuAc. The oligosaccharide moiety lies in the high‐affinity binding site 1 structural epitope of hGH that interfaces with both the growth hormone and the prolactin receptors and is predicted to sterically affect receptor interactions and alter the biological actions of hGH. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of protein-bound complex N-glycans in mammals requires a series of covalent modifications governed by a large number of specific glycosyltransferases and glycosidases. The addition of oligosaccharide to an asparagine residue on a nascent polypeptide chain begins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Oligosaccharide processing continues in the Golgi apparatus to produce a diversity of glycan structures. UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:α-3-
-mannoside β-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (EC 2.4.1.101; GlcNAc-TI) is a key enzyme in the process because it is essential for the conversion of high-mannose N-glycans to complex and hybrid N-glycans. We have isolated the mouse gene encoding GlcNAc-TI (Mgat-1) from a genomic DNA library. The mouse sequence is highly conserved with respect to the human and rabbit homologs and exists as a single protein-encoding exon. Mgat-1 was mapped to mouse Chromosome 11, closely linked to the gene encoding interleukin-3 by the analysis of multilocus interspecies backcrosses. RNA analyses of Mgat-1 expression levels revealed significant variation among normal tissues and cells. 相似文献

We encountered a fourth case of honey allergy in Japan. We characterized and identified the IgE-binding proteins in honey using the serum of a honey-allergenic patient. Immunoblot analysis revealed that IgE in the patient serum specifically bound to four proteins in each honey sample. At least three of these IgE-binding proteins were N-linked glycoproteins. To identify the 60-kDa IgE-binding protein in dandelion honey, the N-terminal sequences of the fragmented protein were analyzed, revealing the protein to be major royal jelly protein 1 (MRJP 1). Three IgE-binding proteins removed of N-linked oligosaccharide showed a large reduction in IgE-binding activity as compared with the intact protein. This suggests that the carbohydrates in the IgE-binding proteins are a major epitope for patient IgE. 相似文献

Summary We previously demonstrated that the lipopeptide of the myelin basic protein (MBP) immunodominant epitope in Lewis rat Palm-GpMBP(74-85)
(Gp: guinea pig), which induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitisin vivo strongly increased the T cell proliferative responsein vitro. We extended this study to the human immunodominant epitope hMBP(83-99), synthesizing different lipophilic peptides bearing
a hydrophobic chain linked through an amide or a C-C bond. To this aim, we developed a synthetic pathway for (±)-N-Fmoc-Ahd-OH (Ahd: 2-aminohexadecanoic acid) which was used to synthesize diastereomeric peptides which were successfully
separated by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. MBP-specific T cell lines recognizing the immunodominant
epitope hMBP(83-99) have been generated from patients affected by multiple sclerosis. Their proliferative response to the
native peptide and to some lipoderivatives has been investigated. In contrast to the animal model, none of the investigated
lipopeptides exhibited ‘superagonist’ activity.
