Novel O-serotypes were revealed among Pseudomonas syringae pv. garcae strains by using a set of mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to the lipopolysaccharide O-polysaccharide. Structural studies showed that the O-polysaccharide of P. syringae pv. garcae NCPPB 2708 is a hitherto unknown linear L-rhamnan lacking strict regularity and having two oligosaccharide repeating units I and II, which differ in the position of substitution in one of the rhamnose residues and have the following structures: I:3)--L Rha (12)-- L Rha (12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1;II: 2)--L-Rha-(13) -L-Rha-(12)--L-Rha-(13)--L Rha (1.The branched O-polysaccharides of P. syringae pv. garcae ICMP 8047 and NCPPB 588T have the same L-rhamnan backbone with repeating units I and II and a lateral chain of 14)- or 13)-linked residues of 3-acetamido-3,6-dideoxy-D-galactose (D-Fuc3NAc). Several monoclonal antibody epitopes associated with the L-rhamnan backbone or the lateral -D-Fuc3NAc residues were characterized.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 73, No. 6, 2004, pp. 777–789.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Ovod, Zdorovenko, Shashkov, Kocharova, Knirel. 相似文献

The structures of the N-linked sugar chains in the PAS-6 glycoprotein (PAS-6) from the bovine milk fat globule membrane were determined. The sugar chains were liberated from PAS-6 by hydrazinolysis, and the pyridylaminated sugar chains were separated into a neutral (6N) and two acidic chains (6M and 6D), the acidic sugar chains then being converted to neutral sugar chains (6MN and 6DN). 6N was separated into two neutral fractions (6N13 and 6N5.5), while 6MN and 6DN each gave a single fraction (6MN13 and 6DN13). The structure of 6N5.5, which was the major sugar chain in PAS-6, is proposed to be Man16 (Man13) Man14GlcNAc14GlcNAc-PA; 6N13, 6MN13 and 6DN13 are proposed to be Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man16 (Gal13Gal14GlcNAc12Man13) Man14GlcNAc14 (Fuc16)GlcNAc-PA;6M and 6D had 1 or 2 additional NeuAc residues at the non-reducing ends of 6MN13 and 6DN13, respectively. © 1998 Rapid Science Ltd 相似文献

In bacterial reaction centers (RCs), changes of protonation state of carboxylic groups, of quinone-protein interactions as well as backbone rearrangements occuring upon QB photoreduction can be revealed by FTIR difference spectroscopy. The influence of compensatory mutations to the detrimental Asp L213 Asn replacement on QB
–/QB FTIR spectra of Rb. sphaeroides RCs was studied in three double mutants carrying a Asn M44 Asp, Arg M233 Cys, or Arg H177 His suppressor mutation. The proton uptake by Glu L212 upon QB
– formation, as reflected by the positive band at 1728 cm–1, is increased in the Asn M44 Asp and Arg H177 His suppressor RCs with respect to native RCs, and remains comparable to that observed in Asp L213 Asn mutant RCs. Only the Arg M233 Cys suppressor mutation affected the 1728 cm–1 band, reducing its amplitude to near native level. Thus, there is no clear correlation between the apparent extent of proton uptake by Glu L212 and the recovery of the proton transfer RC function. In all of the mutant spectra, several protein (amide I and amide II) and quinone anion (C...O/C...C) modes are perturbed compared to the spectrum of native RCs. These IR data show that all of the compensatory mutations alter the semiquinone-protein interactions and the backbone providing direct evidence of structural changes accompanying the restoration of efficient proton transfer in RCs containing the Asp L213 Asn lesion. 相似文献

Summary We have identified different -thalassemia mutations in 93 members of 34 families of Czech or Slovakian descent using gene amplification, hybridization with specific 32P-labeled oligonucleotide probes, sequencing of amplified DNA, and gene mapping. The GA mutation at IVS-I-1 was found in 18 families; other Mediterranean mutations were IVS-II-1 (GA), IVS-II-745 (CG), IVS-I-110 (GA), and codon 39 (CT); these were present in 9 additional families. The GT mutation at codon 121, known to cause Heinzbody -thalassemia, was present in 3 families, and the frameshift at codons 82/83 (-G), first described in the Azerbaijanian population, in 2 families. A newly discovered allele was a frameshift at codons 38/39 (-C). One -thalassemia allele was incompletely characterized. We observed in 2 families a TC mutation at position +96 UTR (untranslated region) relative to the termination codon; this mutation likely is a rare polymorphism, -Thalassemia was rare; only one person carried the -3.7 heterozygosity, and one other had a yet to be identified -thalassemia-1, while seven had the anti 3.7 triplication. 相似文献

Summary This paper reports our experience of molecular screening and fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia in 457 at risk couples of Italian descent. Molecular screening was carried out by dot blot analysis on amplified DNA with oligonucleotide probes complementary to the eight most common mutations in Italians [39 (CT); 6 (-A); +-87 (CG); + IVSI nt 110 (GA); IVSI nt 1 (GA); + IVSI nt 6 (TC); IVSII nt 1 (GA); + IVSII nt 745 (CG)]. By using this approach, we have been able to define the mutation in 92.8% of cases. The rest (all but four) were defined by direct sequencing and this led to the detection of nine rare mutations [76 (-C); + IVSI nt 5 (GA); + IVSI nt 5 (GC); + IVSI -1 (cod 30) (GC); +-87 (CT), -290 bp del.; +-101 (CT)], and to the characterization of a novel mutation consisting of the deletion of the G at the invariant AG of the IVSII splice acceptor site of the -globin gene ( IVSII nt 850-1 bp). In the remaining four cases, the -globin gene showed entirely normal sequences and the -globin gene cluster was intact, as indicated by Southern blot analysis. Fetal diagnosis was carried out by dot blot analysis with the oligonucleotide probes defined in the parents. The procedure is simple and reliable, and the results can be obtained within 1 week of sampling. No misdiagnosis has so far occurred. The results indicate that fetal diagnosis of -thalassemia by DNA analysis may be obtained in practically all cases (even in a population showing marked heterogeneity of -thalassemia) by the combination of dot blot analysis for detecting common mutations, and direct sequencing for defining those that are uncommon. 相似文献

Primary structure of hemoglobin of -chain ofColumba livia is presented. The separation of -chain was obtained from globin by ion-exchange chromatography (CMC-52) and reversed-phase HPLC (RP-2 column). Amino acid sequence of intact as well as tryptic digested chain was determined on gas-phase sequencer. Structure is aligned homologously with 21 other species. Among different exchanges, positions 24 (TyrLeu), 26 (AlaGly), 32 (MetLeu), 64 (AspGlu), 113 (LeuPhe), and 129 (LeuVal) are unique to pigeon hemoglobin. The various exchanges in -chain are discussed with reference to evolution and phylogeny. The results show that the order Columbiformes is evolutionarily closer to the order Anseriformes. Since the pigeon is homogeneous, having HbA (A-chain) and lacks D-chain, its phylogenetic placement could be established among birds having single hemoglobin components. 相似文献

(13),(14)--d-Glucans represent an important component of cell walls in the Poaceae family of higher plants. A number of glycoside endo- and exohydrolases is required for the depolymerization of (13),(14)--d-glucans in germinated grain or for the partial hydrolysis of the polysaccharide in elongating vegetative tissues. The enzymes include (13),(14)--d-glucan endohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.73), which are classified as family 17 glycoside hydrolases, (14)--d-glucan glucohydrolases (family 1) and -d-glucan exohydrolases (family 3). Kinetic analyses of hydrolytic reactions enable the definition of action patterns, the thermodynamics of substrate binding, and the construction of subsite maps. Mechanism-based inhibitors and substrate analogues have been used to study the spatial orientation of the substrate in the active sites of the enzymes, at the atomic level. The inhibitors and substrate analogues also allow us to define the catalytic mechanisms of the enzymes and to identify catalytic amino acid residues. Three-dimensional structures of (13),(14)--d-glucan endohydrolases, (14)--d-glucan glucohydrolases and -d-glucan exohydrolases are available or can be reliably modelled from the crystal structures of related enzymes. Substrate analogues have been diffused into crystals for solving of the three-dimensional structures of enzyme-substrate complexes. This information provides valuable insights into potential biological roles of the enzymes in the degradation of the barley (13),(14)--d-glucans during endosperm mobilization and in cell elongation. 相似文献

The lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) extracted from the outer membrane of Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 and its Omegon-Km mutants KM018 and KM252 with a hot aqueous solution of phenol were found to differ in the content of carbohydrates, glucosamine, and total phosphorus and in the proportion of octadecenoic and hexadecanoic acids in the lipid moieties of the LPSs. The carbohydrate moieties of the LPSs were heterogeneous in charge. The analysis of the O-specific polysaccharides (O-PSs) of the mutants KM018 and KM252 by gas–liquid chromatography, IR spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy showed that they are composed of the same linear pentasugar repeating units 2)--D-Rhap-(1 3)--D-Rhap-(1 3)--D-Rhap-(1 2)--D-Rhap-(1 2)--D-Rhap-(1 as the O-PSs of the parent strain Sp245. The reported differences in the biological activity of the LPSs of the parent and mutant strains can be due to their different chemical composition. 相似文献

Summary The agglutinin isolated from the seeds of Maclura pomifera (MPA) recognizes a mucin-type disaccharide sequence, Gal13GalNAc (T) on a human erythrocyte membrane. We have utilized the enzyme-linked lectinosorbent assay (ELLSA) and inhibition assay to more systematically analyze the carbohydrate specificity of MPA with glyco-recognition factors and mammalian Gal/GalNAc structural units in lectin–glycoform interactions. From the results, it is concluded that the high densities of polyvalent GalNAc1Ser/Thr (Tn) and Gal13GalNAc1Ser/Thr (T) glycotopes in macromolecules are the most critical factors for MPA binding, being on a nanogram basis 2.0 × 105, 4.6 × 104 and 3.9 × 104 more active than monovalent Gal, monomeric T and Tn glycotope, respectively. Other carbohydrate structural units in mammalian glycoconjugates, such as human blood group Sd (a+) related disaccharide (GalNAc14Gal) and Pk/P1 active disaccharide (Gal14Gal) were inactive. These results demonstrate that the configurations of carbon-4 and carbon-2 are essential for MPA binding and establish the importance of affinity enhancement by high-density polyvalencies of Tn/T glycotopes in MPA–glycan interactions. The overall binding profile of MPA can be defined in decreasing order as high density of polyvalent Tn/T (M.W. > 4.0 × 104) >> Tn-containing glycopeptides (M.W. < 3.0 × 103) > monomeric T/Tn and P (GalNAc13Gal) > GalNAc > Gal >> Man, LAra, DFuc and Glc (inactive). Our findings should aid in the selection of this lectin for elucidating functions of carbohydrate chains in life processes and for applications in the biomedical sciences. 相似文献

Rabbit antisera were raised against -(16)-galactotetraose coupled to bovine serum albumin (Gal4-BSA). The antisera reacted with arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) isolated from seeds, roots, or leaves of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) as revealed by immunodiffusion analysis. Extensive removal of -l-arabinofuranosyl residues from these AGPs enhanced the formation of precipitin with the antisera. The antisera did not react with such other polysaccharides as soybean arabinan-4-galactan, -(14)-galactan, and -(13)-galactan, indicating their high specificity toward the consecutive -(16)-galactosyl side chains of AGPs. The antibodies were purified by affinity chromatography on a column of immobilized -(16)-galactotetraose as ligand. The specificity of the antibodies toward consecutive (16)-linked -galactosyl residues was confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for hapten inhibition against Gal4-BSA as antigen, which revealed that -(16)-galactotriose and-tetraose were potent inhibitors, while -(13)-or -(14)-galactobioses and -trioses were essentially unreactive. Electron-microscopic observation of immunogold-stained tissues demonstrated that AGPs were localized in the middle lamella as well as at the plasma membrane of primary roots of radish. Agglutination of protoplasts prepared from cotyledons occurred with the antibodies, supporting the evidence for localization of AGPs in the plasma membrane. The antibody-mediated agglutination was inhibited by addition of AGPs or -(16)-galactotetraose.Abbreviations AGP

A Hu-Barkana-Gruzinov cold dark matter scalarfield may enter a weak isospin invariant derivative interactionthat causes the flow of right-handed electrons to align parallelto (). Hence, in the outer regions of galaxies where () islarge, as in galactic halos, the derivative interaction mayinduce a chirality-imbued quantum chemistry. Such a chirality-imbued chemistry would in turn be conducive to the formation ofabundant precursor biopolymers on interstellar dust grains,comets and meteors in galactic halo regions, with subsequentdelivery to planets in the inner galactic regions where and() are concomitantly near zero and left-right symmetricterrestrial quantum chemistry prevails. 相似文献

Point mutations in the upstream region of the α-galactosidase A gene exon 6 in an atypical variant of Fabry disease 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary Single point mutations in the upstream region of exon 6 of the -galactosidase A gene were found in two Japanese cases of the cardiac form of Fabry disease; 301ArgGln (902GA) in a case that has already been published and 279GlnGlu (835CG) in a new case. They both expressed markedly low, but significant, amounts of residual activity in COS-1 cells. In contrast, two unrelated cases with classic Fabry disease were found to have different point mutations, which showed a complete loss of enzyme activity in a transient expression assay; 328GlyArg (982GA) in the downstream region of exon 6 in one case and two combined mutations, 66GluGln (196GC)/112ArgCys (334CT), in exon 2 in the other. We conclude, on the basis of the results recorded in this study and those in previous reports, that the pathogenesis of atypical Fabry disease is closely associated with point mutations in the upstream region of exon 6 of the -galactosidase A gene. 相似文献

Summary The XylS protein is the positive regulator of the TOL plasmid-encoded meta-cleavage pathway for the metabolism of alkylbenzoates in Pseudomonas putida. This protein is activated by a variety of benzoate analogues. To elucidate the functional domains of the regulator and their interactions, several fusions of the XylS C-terminus to MS2 polymerase and of the N-terminus to -galactosidase were constructed but all are inactive. In addition, 15 double mutant xylS genes were constructed in vitro by fusing parts of various mutant genes to produce mutant regulators exhibiting C-terminal and N-terminal amino acid substitutions. The phenotypic properties of the parental single mutant genes, and those of the double mutant genes, suggest that the C-terminal region is involved in binding to DNA sequences at the promoter of the meta-cleavage pathway operon, and that the benzoate effector binding pocket includes critical residues present at both the N-terminal and C-terminal ends of the protein. The intraallelic dominance of the Ile229 (Ser229 Ile) and Val274 (Asp274 Val) substitutions over the N-terminal His4l (Arg4l His) substitution, and the intraallelic dominance of Thr45 (Arg45 Thr) over Ile229 and Val274, support the proposal that these two regions of the regulator interact functionally. Combination of the Leu88 (Trp88 Leu) and Arg256 (Pro256 Arg) substitutions did not suppress the semiconstitutive phenotype conferred by Leu88, but resulted in a protein with altered ability to recognize benzoates. In contrast, the Leu88 semiconstitutive phenotype was suppressed by Va1288 (Asp288 Val), and the double mutant was susceptible to activation by benzoates. The results suggest that intramolecular interactions between the C- and N-terminal regions of XylS are critical for activation of the regulator by the effector. 相似文献

Summary We have found out that cell-free extracts from frozen krill decompose many oligo-and polysacharides, particularly with (13)--and (14)--linkages. Two individual proteins have very high activity with laminaran as the substrate. One of them has been isolated and purified 980-fold. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of purified preparation of krill (13)--glucanase [(13)--D-glucan glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.6] demonstrated that it was slightly contaminated by one protein band inactive in laminaran hydrolysis. Studies on the hydrolysis of different substrates showed that the enzyme was able to break down only (13)--D-linkages by an endo-splitting mechanism. Glucono--lactone and heavy metal ions such as Hg2+ inhibited enzyme activity. The activity of the endo-(13)--glucanase of krill strictly depended on free thiol groups in a enzyme molecule. The Michaelis constant value for laminaran was 0.063 mg/ml. Optimal determined temperature was 65°C and optimal pH 5.0. Because of this enzyme's strong interaction with concavalin A-Sepharose it is suggested that it might be a glycoprotein.This work was supported by the Institute of Ecology of Polish Academy of Sciences as a part MR I/29 programme 相似文献

As part of a program to explore the structural requirement of N-glycans in the carbohydrate-mediated biological interactions, N-linked pentasaccharide core structure was stereochemically modified in terms of glycosidic linkage. Three isomers, -D-Man-(13)-[-D-Man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, -D-Man-(13)-[-D-Man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, and -D-Man-(13)-[-D-man-(16)]--D-Man-(14)--D-GlcNAc-(14)--D-GlcNAc-L-Asn, were synthesized. Synthesis of the pentasaccharide with natural linkage is also described. 相似文献

Expression sites of genes encoding (13,14)--glucan 4-glucanohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.73) have been mapped in germinated barley grains (Hordeum vulgare L.) by hybridization histochemistry. A32P-labelled cDNA (copy DNA) probe was hybridized to cryosections of intact barley grains to localize complementary mRNAs. No mRNA encoding (13,14)--glucanase is detected in ungerminated grain. Expression of (13,14)--glucanase genes is first detected in the scutellum after 1 d and is confined to the epithelial layer. At this stage, no expression is apparent in the aleurone. After 2 d, levels of (13,14)--glucanase mRNA decrease in the scutellar epithelium but increase in the aleurone. In the aleurone layer, induction of (13,14)--glucanase gene expression, as measured by mRNA accumulation, progresses from the proximal to distal end of the grain as a front moving away from, and parallel to, the face of the scutellum.Abbreviations cDNA

In order to elucidate the NAD-recycling pathway the following enzyme activities have been characterized in different tobacco tissues and in tomato root: NAD pyrophosphatase, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN)/nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) glycohydrolases, nicotinamidase and nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase. The investigations were performed with protein extracts purified by gel filtration and enzymatic activities were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography methods. The kinetic parameters of the different enzymes from tobacco root and their specificity are reported. The data are in favor of the so-called pyridine-nucleotide cycle VI (NADNMNnicotinamidenicotinic acidNaMNnicotinic acid adenine dinucleotideNAD). In the nicotine-producing tobacco root a further direct route leading from NaMN to nicotinic acid is proposed. These data are reconciled with the assumption that it is nicotinic acid which is provided by the pyridine-nucleotide cycle for the synthesis of nicotine.Abbreviations HPLC

Novel genetic variants for donkey milk lysozyme and -lactoglobulins I and II have been identified by the combined use of peptide mass mapping and sequencing by tandem mass spectrometry in association with database searching. The novel donkey lysozyme variant designated as lysozyme B (Mr 14,631 Da) differed in three amino acid exchanges, N49 D, Y52 S, and S61 N, from the previously published sequence. Three novel genetic variants for donkey -lactoglobulins were identified. One of them is a type -lactoglobulin I with three amino acid exchanges at E36 S, S97 T, and V150 I (-lactoglobulin I B, Mr 18,510 Da). The two others are type -lactoglobulins II with two amino acid exchanges at C110 P and M118 T (-lactoglobulin II B, Mr 18,227 Da) and with three amino acid exchanges at D96 E, C110 P, and M118 T (-lactoglobulin II C, Mr 18,241 Da). All these primary structures are closely related to those of homologous proteins in horse milk (percent identity >96%). 相似文献

Fumonisins, mycotoxins produced byFusarium moniliforme and a number of other fungi, are potent inhibitors of the sphinganine-N-acyltransferase, a key enzyme of sphingolipid biosynthesis, and cause neuronal degeneration, liver and renal toxicity, cancer and other injury to animals.In this study we investigated the effect of fumonisin B1 on the sphingolipids of developing chick embryos. After yolk sac injection of fumonisin B1 a concentration and time dependent increase of the sphinganine-over-sphingosine ratio of the embryos could be demonstrated. Studies were done to evaluate the effect of fumonisin B1 on the glycosphingolipid pattern of the chick embryos. In the presence of 72 µg fumonisin B1 per egg the incorporation of [14C]galactose and of [14C]serine into embryonic glycosphingolipids was reduced by about 70%, although the mass of glycosphingolipids was not affected by the toxin. However, a reduction of the wet weight of the treated embryos was observed. Additionally, histological examinations of whole embryo sections of control and fumonisin B1 treated embryos are presented. Fumonisin B1 caused haemorrhages under the skin as well as in the liver of treated embyros. A close correlation between disruption of sphingoid metabolism and light microscopic detectable tissue lesions could be observed.Abbreviations Cer

The conformational behaviour of the spacer-linked synthetic Sda tetrasaccharide -d-GalpNAc-(14)-[-Neu5Ac-(23)]--d-Galp-(14)--d-GlcpNAc-(1O)(CH2)5NH2 (1) and the two mimics -d-Galp-(14)-[-Neu5Ac-(23)]--d-Galp-(14)--d-GlcpNAc-(1O)(CH2)5NH2 (2) and -d-GlcpNAc-(14)-[-Neu5Ac-(23)]--d-Galp-(14)--d-GlcpNAc-(1O)(CH2)5NH2 (3) were investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy in combination with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in water. Experimental 2D 1H ROESY cross-peak intensities (ROEs) of the tetrasaccharides were compared with calculated ROEs derived from MD trajectories using the CROSREL program. Analysis of these data indicated that the oligosaccharidic skeletons of the compounds 1–3 are rather rigid, especially the -d-Hex(NAc)-(14)-[-Neu5Ac-(23)]--d-Galp fragments. The - Neu5-Ac-(23)--d-Galp linkage occurred in two different energy minima in the three-dimensional structure of the compounds 1–3 in aqueous solution. Experimental data and dynamics simulations supported the finding that the higher energy rotamer (CHEAT forcefield) was abundant in compounds 1 and 3 due to the existence of a hydrogen bond between the carboxyl group of the sialic acid and the acetamido group of the terminal monosaccharide (GalNAc or GlcNAc) unit. The conformational similarity between 1 and 3 leads to the suggestion that also their activities will be alike. 相似文献
