A 53-residue peptide corresponding to the variable region 16-68 of the heavy chain of phosphocholine binding mouse myeloma M603 protein was synthesized by a solid-phase fragment strategy. The homogeneity of the VH(16-68) peptide was confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, amino acid analysis, and mass spectrometry. Synthetic VH(16-68) associated with the M603 light chain, and about 27% of the recombination mixture bound to phosphocholine immobilized on Sepharose as compared to a 28% binding yield obtained for the recombined natural light and heavy chains under the same conditions. The binding yield for the recombinant of the light chain with previously prepared VH(27-68) fragment was about 11%. These semisynthetic antibodies VH(27-68) and VH(16-68) light chain recombinants are forerunners of structural variants designed to study the antigen binding pocket of the M603 immunoglobulin. 相似文献

The five C gamma genes in the human immunoglobulin heavy chain region show nonrandom association and segregation as haplotypes. From the study of genetic variation in C gamma genes of 58 healthy Caucasian volunteers, we have identified a haplotype that involves a duplication of C gamma 2. This haplotype contains both the 13.5-kilobase (kb) and 25-kb BamHI fragment alleles of C gamma 2. In addition, the patterns and relative intensity of BamHI fragments containing C gamma genes were those expected for genomic DNA containing three copies of C gamma 2 for every two copies of the four other C gamma genes. A new EcoRI polymorphism in C gamma 4 was useful in defining the haplotype containing the duplication. Alleles of the C gamma genes in the duplication haplotype, including Gm markers of C gamma 1 and C gamma 3 and DNA polymorphisms of C psi gamma, C gamma 2, and C gamma 4, were consistent with its origin from an unequal crossover between the two common C gamma haplotypes, H1 and H2. This recombinant haplotype, which has been designated H2;1(gamma 2 dup) to reflect its origin, occurred with a frequency of .043 in a random sample of 116 chromosomes. 相似文献

Immunoglobulin heavy chain mRNA was purified from immunoprecipitated polysomes derived from the mouse myeloma tumor, MOPC-31C. The purified mRNA migrated predominantly as a single band upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in 98% formamide and the molecular weight of this mRNA was calculated to be 700,000. This mRNA was as active as the purified light chain mRNA when it was employed as a template in a cell-free protein synthesizing system from wheat germ. The translation product had a molecular weight of 55,000 daltons, and migrated slightly faster than mature heavy chain upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecylsulfate. The protein synthesized by the direction of this mRNA was shown to yield tryptic peptides corresponding to those derived from the mature heavy chain protein except that one missing peptide was replaced by another additional peptide. DNA complementary to the mRNA was synthesized by RNA-dependent DNA polymerase from avian myeloblastosis virus. Hybridization kinetic analysis between the heavy chain mRNA and its complementary DNA indicated that the RNA was essentially homogenous with rabbit globin mRNA as a standard. 相似文献

Abnormalities in the glycosylation of immunoglobulin heavy chain and an h-2 transplantation antigen in a mouse myeloma mutant. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Two mutant cell lines derived from the MPC-11 mouse myeloma synthesize immunoglobulin with abnormal heavy chains and normal light chains. The defective heavy chains have molecular weights of 38,000-42,000 (M3.11) and 50,000 daltons (ICR 11.19) as compared to 55,000 daltons of the wild-type. The glycosylation of the defective heavy chains demostrated several unusual features: first, 30-50% of the M3.11 heavy chain contained no carbonydrate, while 100% of the wildtype and ICR 11.19 heavy chains were glycosylated; second, the glycopeptides of the M3.11 heavy chains revealed an altered gel filtration pattern when compared with the wild-type; and third, digestion with an endoglycosidase indicated that the heterogeneity of the wild-type and M3.11 glycopeptides involved structural changes in the core region of the oligosaccharide. Examination of two other glycoproteins (the major histocompatibility complex antigens) in these cell lines showed that in M3.11, the H-2D but not the H-2K product was abnormally glycosylated and contained a smaller glycopeptide. However, in a subclone of M3.11 that had lost the ability to produce immunoglobulin heavy chains, the H-2D glycopeptide had returned to wild-type size. We concluded from these studies that the defective M3.11 immunoglobulin heavy chain interfered both with its own glycosylation and the glycosylation of another protein, H-2D. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of the rat epsilon-chain mRNA has been determined by sequencing cloned cDNA copies of the mRNA. The established sequence covers the coding region, the 3'-non coding region and most of the 5' non-coding region. A comparison with the nucleotide sequence of the human epsilon-chain constant region reveals that C3 and C4 are the most highly conserved domains. The rat epsilon-chain contains a C-terminal decapeptide which is not present in the human counterpart. 相似文献

The human myeloma protein WIE is a lambda-type immunoglobulin D; the amino-acid sequence of its Fc part and aminoethylated heavy chain was completely determined. The VH-part (subgroup III) begins N-terminally with 5-oxoproline, and it contains a long, unique CDR3 region. Since the constant part differs from known delta chains by one amino-acid substitution in the hinge region, IgD WIE probably represents an allotypic variant. As in other protein delta chains, O-glycosylations are confined to the hinge region. Furthermore, the ratios of N-glycosylations at the three positions are identical in IgD WAH [Takahashi, N. et al. (1984) J. Chromatogr. 317, 11-26.] and IgD WIE (100%, 50%, 100%). From the most conserved constant domain, C delta 3, a three-dimensional model was constructed to clarify the role of its delta-specific substitutions and glycosylation. 相似文献

A few solid phase and solution approaches of good repute were applied in parallel with the aim to provide optimized routes to Boc- and Fmoc-tocinoic acid (3a and 3c) and the corresponding Tyr(Bu(t)) derivatives (3b and 3d). Boc-tocinoic acid is known to couple with tripeptide amides to give substituted oxytocin precursors in high yields, requiring only Boc-cleavage to furnish the corresponding hormone analogs with minimal loss of material. For comparison, two protected linear hexapeptides (2a and 2b) were prepared on three polystyrene supports, two with acid-labile handles and one a conventional chloromethylated resin, in yields of 62-82 and 58-76%, respectively. The intermediate 2a could be converted to 3a with physical data in agreement with those earlier reported. Similarly, the intermediate 2b was converted to 3b. The highest yields for both 2a and 2b were obtained with a 2-chlorotrityl chloride resin, which in addition provided advantages with respect to overall speed and convenience. Additional syntheses of 3c and 3d on this and of 3c on SASRIN resin, in conjunction with trityl instead of benzyl for side-chain protection of cysteine, were also elaborated. 相似文献

A mouse DNA clone containing the constant part of the immunoglobulin gamma 2b heavy chain was isolated from a mouse gene library. The library was constructed in Charon 4A from a partial EcoRI digest of mouse embryo DNA and was screened with a plasmid (p gamma (11)7) containing a cDNA insert of the heavy chain constant region of the plasmacytoma MPC-11 (1). The Charon 4A clone contains a 14 kb insert which is cleaved by EcoRI into a 6.8 kb and 7.2 kb fragments, of which only the 6.8 kb contains the sequence for gamma 2b heavy chain. Restriction analysis and partial sequence of the insert in p gamma (11) 7 enabled us to obtain three fragments corresponding to the 5' (amino acid 161-302) middle (amino acid 302-443) and 3' (mostly non coding 107 bp) regions of the constant region. Restriction analysis of the Charon 4A clone and hybridisation to these nick translated fragments revealed that the gamma 2b constant region gene contains about 1.5 kb and has three intervening sequences. 相似文献

Using cyanoethyldiisopropylamino phosphoramidite chemistry, four oligonucleotides constituting a part of the sequence of the initiator t-RNA from B. subtilis were synthesized. For the protection of the exocyclic amino functions of bases, phenoxyacetyl group was used for adenine and guanine, and acetyl group was preferred for cytosine. With these labile groups, final deprotection of the oligonucleotides can be performed in milder conditions, allowing the incorporation of 5,6-dihydrouridine in a 35-mer constituting the 5'-end of the t-RNA. 相似文献

The specificity of peptide binding by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules was investigated in a cell-free direct-binding assay. Peptides were assessed for binding to HLA-A2 and HLA-B27 by measuring the formation of heterotrimeric HLA complexes that consisted of iodinated beta 2-microglobulin, HLA heavy chain fragments isolated from the Escherichia coli cytoplasm, and peptide. In this system, no detectable HLA heavy chain-beta 2-microglobulin complexes were formed unless appropriate peptides were intentionally added to the reconstitution solution. Analysis with monoclonal antibodies demonstrated that these heterotrimeric complexes were correctly folded. Five nonhomologous peptides, known to form complexes with HLA-A2 or HLA-B27 from T-cell functional studies, were tested for their capacity to bind to HLA-A2 and HLA-B27 using the reconstitution assay. Four of the peptides bound to the appropriate class I molecule only. One peptide and some (but not all) substitution analogs of it bound to both HLA-A2 and HLA-B27. The effect of peptide length on binding to HLA-B27 was studied, and it was found that the optimal length was 9 or 10 amino acid residues; however, one peptide that bound to HLA-B27 was 15 amino acids long. All peptides that bound to HLA-B27 in the direct-binding assay also competed with antigenic peptides for binding to HLA-B27 on the surface of intact cells, as determined by a standard cytotoxic T-lymphocyte functional assay. Thus, we conclude that HLA-A2 and HLA-B27 bind distinct but partially overlapping sets of peptides and that, at least in vitro, the assembly of HLA heavy chain-beta 2-microglobulin complexes requires specific peptides. 相似文献

The amino acid sequences of most of the CH1, CH2 and CH3 domains of IgG Zie, a myeloma protein belonging to the IgG2 subclass, are presented. These data make possible a comparison of the sequences of residues 253-446 of all four subclasses of immunoglobulins: these residues make up almost the entire Fc regions. A comparison can also be made of the CH1 domain of IgG1 Eu and the CH1 domain of IgG2 Zie. Earlier sequence analyses of the Fc regions of subclass 1 and 3 proteins, and parts of the Fc regions of subclass 2 and 4 proteins showed that about 95% of these sequences were identical. The extended comparisons made possible by the data presented here show that this very high degree of identity is maintained throughout the four subclasses. Similarly, the CH1 domains of gamma 1 and gamma 2 chains were found to have about 93% sequence identity. It is unlikely that the few single amino acid changes within the constant region domains can account for the marked differences between subclasses observed in the region domains can account for the marked differences between subclasses observed in the biological effector functions of immunoglobulin Fc regions, especially since most of the changes are highly conservative. Rather, it seems probable that these functional differences are caused by conformational differences between the subgroups, which result from sequence differences in the hinge regions. 相似文献

The LC1 light chain from Chlamydomonas outer arm dynein is tightly bound to the gamma heavy chain. Molecular cloning revealed that LC1 is a member of the SDS22+ subclass of the leucine-rich repeat protein family and as such is likely involved in mediating interactions between dynein and the components of a signal transduction pathway. Through the combination of covalent cross-linking and vanadate-mediated photolysis, LC1 was found to associate with that portion of the gamma HC that is C-terminal to the P1 loop. This region comprises most of the globular head domain of the heavy chain and includes the stalk-like structure that is involved in microtubule binding. Attachment of LC1 to this region represents the only known example of an accessory polypeptide directly associated with a dynein motor domain. Additional cross-linking experiments revealed that LC1 also interacts directly in situ with an approximately 45 kDa axonemal component; this interaction is disrupted by the standard high salt treatment used to remove the outer arm from the axoneme. These data suggest that LC1 acts to mediate the association between this 45 kDa axonemal polypeptide and the motor unit of the gamma HC. 相似文献

A minor C27 sterol, glaucasterol, was isolated from the soft coral Sarcophyton glaucum. Based on the spectroscopic evidence and the correlation to cholestanol and 26-nor-27-homocholestanol, its structure was proposed to be 24 epsilon,25 epsilon-24,26-cyclocholesta-5,22E-dien-3 eta-ol (1), the first example of a natural C27 sterol having a cyclopropane ring in the side chain. 相似文献

Oligoribonucleotides with chain length of 7, 11, 15, 17, 24 and 34 were synthesized on long chain alkylamine controlled pore glass beads (LCA-CPG) using o-nitrobenzyl protection of 2'-hydroxyls via a H-phosphonate approach either manually or by using an automatic synthesizer. The oligoribonucleotides were obtained in yields of 0.6 0.6-20%, based on initial nucleoside bound to the LCA-CPG support. 相似文献
