Immunological similarities between specific chloroplast ribosomal proteins from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and ribosomal proteins from Escherichia coli 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Polyclonal antibodies were elicited against seven of the 33 different
proteins of the large subunit of the chloroplast ribosome from
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Three of these proteins are synthesized in the
chloroplast and four are made in the cytoplasm and imported. In western
blots, six of the seven antisera are monospecific for their respective
large subunit ribosomal proteins, and none of these antisera cross-reacted
with any chloroplast small subunit proteins from C. reinhardtii. Antisera
to the three chloroplast-synthesized ribosomal proteins cross-reacted with
specific Escherichia coli large subunit proteins of comparable charge and
molecular weight. Only one of the four antisera to the chloroplast
ribosomal proteins synthesized in the cytoplasm cross-reacted with an E.
coli large subunit protein. None of the antisera cross-reacted with any E.
coli small subunit proteins. On the assumption of a procaryotic,
endosymbiotic origin for the chloroplast, those chloroplast ribosomal
proteins still synthesized within the organelle appear to have retained
more antigenic sites in common with E. coli ribosomal proteins than have
those which are now the products of cytoplasmic protein synthesis. Antisera
to this cytoplasmically synthesized group of chloroplast ribosomal proteins
did not recognize any antigenic sites among C. reinhardtii cytoplasmic
ribosomal proteins, suggesting that the genes for the cytoplasmically
synthesized chloroplast ribosomal proteins either are not derived from the
cytoplasmic ribosomal protein genes or have evolved to a point where no
antigenic similarities remain.

Thioredoxin is a small redox protein with an active-site disulfide/dithiol. The protein from Escherichia coli has been well characterized. The genes encoding thioredoxin in E. coli and in the filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC 7119 have been cloned and sequenced. Anabaena thioredoxin exhibits 50% amino acid identity with the E. coli protein and interacts with E. coli enzymes. The genes encoding Anabaena and E. coli thioredoxin were fused via a common restriction site in the nucleotide sequence coding for the active site of the proteins to generate hybrid genes, coding for two chimeric thioredoxins. These proteins are designated Anabaena-E. coli (A-E) thioredoxin for the construct with the Anabaena sequence from the N-terminus to the middle of the active site and the E. coli sequence to the C-terminus, and E. coli-Anabaena (E-A) for the opposite construct. The gene encoding the A-E thioredoxin complements all phenotypes of an E. coli thioredoxin-deficient strain, whereas the gene encoding E-A thioredoxin is only partially effective. Purified E-A thioredoxin exhibits a much lower catalytic efficiency with E. coli thioredoxin reductase and ribonucleotide reductase than either E. coli or Anabaena thioredoxin. In contrast, the A-E thioredoxin has a higher catalytic efficiency in these reactions than either parental protein. Reaction with antibodies to E. coli and Anabaena thioredoxins shows that the antigenic determinants for thioredoxin are located in the C-terminal part of the molecule and retain the native conformation in the hybrid proteins.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Escherichia coli Lon-mutants deficient in intracellular protease La have been isolated. The rate of degradation of normal cellular proteins was 1.5-2-fold lower in Lon-mutants as compared with that of the wild type strain. The rate of degradation of canavanine-containing abnormal proteins, as well as foreign proteins was significantly higher in E. coli than that of normal proteins. Lon-mutants possessed 2-2.5-fold lower rates of degradation of abnormal proteins as compared with Lon+-strains. The rate of degradation of human interferon alpha-2 was 10-fold higher in E. coli than that of abnormal proteins. B. amyloliquefaciens alpha-amylase degraded in E. coli with the rate comparable with that of abnormal proteins, since chloramphenicolacetyltransferase from Tn9 was stable in E. coli. The rate of degradation of interferon alpha-2 was 2-fold lower in Lon-mutants (half-life 23-26 min) than in the initial strain (11-12 min). Lon-mutants were effectively used as recipient strains for constructing strains-producers of several human alpha- and beta-interferons. 相似文献

Mutant strains of Escherichia coli lacking DsbA, DsbB, or DsbD (proteins required for disulfide bond formation in the periplasm) did not produce mitochondrial or chloroplast cytochromes c, as previously observed for bacterial ones. Unexpectedly, however, cytochrome c(555) (AA c(555)) from a hyperthermophile, Aquifex aeolicus, was produced in the E. coli periplasm without Dsb proteins, three times more than with them. These results indicate that the Dsb proteins are not necessarily required for AA c(555) production in E. coli, possibly because of hyperthermophilic origin compared with the others. 相似文献

Prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein (Pup) is a post-translational modifier that attaches to more than 50 proteins in Mycobacteria. Proteasome accessory factor A (PafA) is responsible for Pup conjugation to substrates, but the manner in which proteins are selected for pupylation is unknown. To address this issue, we reconstituted the pupylation of model Mycobacterium proteasome substrates in Escherichia coli, which does not encode Pup or PafA. Surprisingly, Pup and PafA were sufficient to pupylate at least 51 E. coli proteins in addition to the mycobacterial proteins. These data suggest that pupylation signals are intrinsic to targeted proteins and might not require Mycobacterium-specific cofactors for substrate recognition by PafA in vivo. 相似文献

Comparative studies of penicillin-binding proteins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Penicillin-binding proteins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa were compared with those of Escherichia coli. These in P. aeruginosa were found exclusively in the cytoplasmic membrane fraction (fraction soluble in sodium N-lauroyl sarcosinate). Sodium dodecyl sulfate/acrylamide gel electrophoresis of the proteins bound to [14C]penicillin G resulted in the separation of six major bands and several minor bands. The proteins in these bands are referred to as proteins 1A, 1B, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in order of increasing electrophoretical mobility. The electrophoretic mobilities and other properties of penicillin-binding proteins in P. aeruginosa and E. coli were compared and correlated. Fundamentally they seem to be very similar in the two bacteria, but proteins 1A and 1B in P. aeruginosa seem to correspond respectively to proteins 1B and 1A in E. coli, and protein 6 seems to be missing or present in only small amount in P. aeruginosa. In addition, the affinities of currently developed beta-lactam antibiotics to each protein of P. aeruginosa and E. coli were examined in relation to the morphological changes of the cells induced by these antibiotics and their antibacterial potencies. Mecillinam showed high affinity to only protein 2 in both P. aeruginosa and E. coli. At a minimal inhibitory concentration, it converted cells of both P. aeruginosa and E. coli from rods to spherical cells, although its minimal inhibitory concentration was much higher for P. aeruginosa than for E. coli. 相似文献

Comparison of the extracellular proteomes of Escherichia coli B and K-12 strains during high cell density cultivation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) and W3110 strains, belonging to the family B and K-12, respectively, have been most widely employed for recombinant protein production. During the excretory production of recombinant proteins by high cell density cultivation (HCDC) of these strains, other native E. coli proteins were also released. Thus, we analyzed the extracellular proteomes of E. coli BL21 (DE3) and W3110 during HCDC. E. coli BL21 (DE3) released more than twice the amount of protein compared with W3110 during HCDC. A total of 204 protein spots including 83 nonredundant proteins were unambiguously identified by 2-DE and MS. Of these, 32 proteins were conserved in the two strains, while 20 and 33 strain-specific proteins were identified for E. coli BL21 (DE3) and W3110, respectively. More than 70% of identified proteins were found to be of periplasmic origin. The outer membrane proteins, OmpA and OmpF, were most abundant. Two strains showed much different patterns in their released proteins. Also, cell density-dependent variations in the released proteins were observed in both strains. These findings summarized as reference proteome maps will be useful for studying protein release in further detail, and provide new strategies for enhanced excretory production of recombinant proteins. 相似文献

The active site sequence of T4 thioredoxin, Cys-Val-Tyr-Cys, has been modified in two positions to Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys to mimic that of Escherichia coli thioredoxin. The two point mutants Cys-Gly-Tyr-Cys and Cys-Val-Pro-Cys have also been constructed. The mutant proteins have similar reaction rates with T4 ribonucleotide reductase as has the wild-type T4 thioredoxin. Mutant T4 thioredoxins with Pro instead of Tyr at position 16 in the active site sequence have three to four times lower apparent KM with E. coli ribonucleotide reductase than wild-type T4 thioredoxin. The KM values for these mutant proteins which do not have Tyr in position 16 are thus closer to E. coli thioredoxin than to the wild-type T4 thioredoxin. The bulky tyrosine side chain probably prevents proper interactions to E. coli ribonucleotide reductase. Also the redox potentials of these two mutant thioredoxins are lower than that of the wild-type T4 thioredoxin and are thereby more similar to the redox potential of E. coli thioredoxin. Mutations in position 15 behave more or less like the wild-type protein. The kinetic parameters with E. coli thioredoxin reductase are similar for wild-type and mutant T4 thioredoxins except that the apparent kcat is lower for the mutant protein with Pro instead of Tyr in position 16. The active site sequence of T4 thioredoxin has also been changed to Cys-Pro-Tyr-Cys to mimic that of glutaredoxins. This change does not markedly alter the reaction rate of the mutant protein with T4 ribonucleotide reductase or E. coli thioredoxin reductase, but the redox potential is lower for this mutant protein than for wild-type T4 thioredoxin. 相似文献

Flagellar hook proteins from Salmonella and Escherichia coli were dissociated in acid and purified by diethylamino-ethyl-cellulose column chromatography. These two proteins had the same electrophoretic mobility in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. However, analytical electrofocusing patterns showed that these proteins had different isoelectric points (4.7 for Salmonella typhimurium and 4.4 for E. coli). Immunodiffusion and immuno-electron microscopy carried out with antisera prepared against purified hook proteins from S. typhimurium and E. coli showed that these antisera reacted with both hooks. Affinity chromatography allowed separation of antibodies specific for hook proteins from each bacterial species. These results indicate that the hook proteins share common antigenic determinants as well as specific antigens, although the specificity is not quantitatively resolved. From comparisons of the amino acid composition of the hook proteins and flagellins, it was concluded that the differences between flagellins from S. typhimurium and E. coli were larger than those between hook proteins from these species. 相似文献

Protein crystallography, mapping protein interactions, and other functional genomic approaches require purifying many different proteins, each of sufficient yield and homogeneity, for subsequent high-throughput applications. To fill this requirement efficiently, there is a need to develop robust, automated, high-throughput protein expression, and purification processes. We developed and compared two alternative workflows for automated purification of recombinant proteins based on expression of bacterial genes in Escherichia coli (E. coli). The first is a filtration separation protocol in which proteins of interest are expressed in a large volume, 800 ml of E. coli cultures, then isolated by filtration purification using Ni-NTA-Agarose (Qiagen). The second is a smaller scale magnetic separation method in which proteins of interest are expressed in a small volume, 25 ml, of E. coli cultures then isolated using a 96-well purification system with MagneHis Ni2+ Agarose (Promega). Both workflows provided comparable average yields of proteins, about 8 microg of purified protein per optical density unit of bacterial culture measured at 600 nm. We discuss advantages and limitations of these automated workflows, which can provide proteins with more than 90% purity and yields in the range of 100 microg to 45 mg per purification run, as well as strategies for optimizing these protocols. 相似文献

DNA looping is important for gene repression and activation in Escherichia coli and is necessary for some kinds of gene regulation and recombination in eukaryotes. We are interested in sequence-nonspecific architectural DNA-binding proteins that alter the apparent flexibility of DNA by producing transient bends or kinks in DNA. The bacterial heat unstable (HU) and eukaryotic high-mobility group B (HMGB) proteins fall into this category. We have exploited a sensitive genetic assay of DNA looping in living E. coli cells to explore the extent to which HMGB proteins and derivatives can complement a DNA looping defect in E. coli lacking HU protein. Here, we show that derivatives of the yeast HMGB protein Nhp6A rescue DNA looping in E. coli lacking HU, in some cases facilitating looping to a greater extent than is observed in E. coli expressing normal levels of HU protein. Nhp6A-induced changes in the DNA length-dependence of repression efficiency suggest that Nhp6A alters DNA twist in vivo. In contrast, human HMGB2-box A derivatives did not rescue looping. 相似文献

Although Escherichia coli is well studied and various recombinant E. coli protein expression systems have been developed, people usually consider the rapid growing (log phase) culture of E. coli as optimum for production of proteins. However, here we demonstrate that at stationary phase three E. coli systems, BL21 (DE3)(pET), DH5alpha (pGEX) induced with lactose, and TG1 (pBV220) induced with heat shock could overexpress diversified genes, including three whose products are deleterious to the host cells, more stably and profitably than following the log phase induction protocol. Physical and patch-clamp assays indicated that characteristics of target proteins prepared from cultures of the two different growth phases coincide. These results not only provide a better strategy for recombinant protein preparation in E. coli, but also reveal that rapid rehabilitation from stresses and stationary phase protein overproduction are fundamental characters of E. coli. 相似文献

Modulation of the affinity of the single-stranded DNA-binding protein of Escherichia coli (E. coli SSB) to poly(dT) by site-directed mutagenesis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A vector for site-directed mutagenesis and overproduction of the Escherichia coli single-stranded-DNA-binding protein (E. coli SSB) was constructed. An E. coli strain carrying this vector produces up to 400 mg pure protein from 25 g wet cells. The vector was used to mutate specifically the Phe60 residue of E. coli SSB. Phe60 had been proposed to be located near the single-stranded-DNA-binding site. Substitution of the Phe60 residue by Val, Ser, Leu, His, Tyr and Trp gave proteins with no or only minor conformational changes, as detected by NMR spectroscopy. The affinity of the mutant E. coli SSB proteins for single-stranded DNA decreased in the order Trp greater than Phe (wild-type) greater than Tyr greater than Leu greater than His greater than Val greater than Ser, leading to the conclusion that position 60 is a site of hydrophobic interaction of the protein with DNA. 相似文献

Purification and immunogenicity of fusion VP1 protein of foot and mouth disease virus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A procedure has been developed to purify foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) VP1 surface antigens from recombinant Escherichia coli. The VP1 antigens are expressed as fusion proteins derived from the E. coli Trp operon and VP1 surface protein of FMDV. The procedure is capable of recovering greater than 96% of the desired product at a purity of greater than 96%. The resulting antigens induce significant levels of virus-neutralizing antibody in guinea pigs and cattle as determined by a mouse protection assay [Skinner, H.H. (1952) Proc. Int. Vet. Congr., 15th 1, 195]. E. coli contaminants have a deleterious effect on ion-exchange chromatography as well as immunogenicity of the expressed fusion VP1 antigens. The method presented removes significant E. coli contaminants, yielding fusion VP1 proteins which are immunogenically potent. In particular, virus neutralization titers at 100-micrograms dosage of the fusion VP1 proteins of the O1 and A24 serotypes are similar to that induced by the natural VP1 proteins isolated from FMD virions. 相似文献

Functional testing of putative oligopeptide permease (Opp) proteins of Borrelia burgdorferi: a complementation model in opp(-) Escherichia coli 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Studies of the protein function of Borrelia burgdorferi have been limited by a lack of tools for manipulating borrelial DNA. We devised a system to study the function of a B. burgdorferi oligopeptide permease (Opp) orthologue by complementation with Escherichia coli Opp proteins. The Opp system of E. coli has been extensively studied and has well defined substrate specificities. The system is of interest in B. burgdorferi because analysis of its genome has revealed little identifiable machinery for synthesis or transport of amino acids and only a single intact peptide transporter operon. As such, peptide uptake may play a major role in nutrition for the organism. Substrate specificity for ABC peptide transporters in other organisms is determined by their substrate binding protein. The B. burgdorferi Opp operon differs from the E. coli Opp operon in that it has three separate substrate binding proteins, OppA-1, -2 and -3. In addition, B. burgdorferi has two OppA orthologues, OppA-4 and -5, encoded on separate plasmids. The substrate binding proteins interact with integral membrane proteins, OppB and OppC, to transport peptides into the cell. The process is driven by two ATP binding proteins, OppD and OppF. Using opp-deleted E. coli mutants, we transformed cells with B. burgdorferi oppA-1, -2, -4 or -5 and E. coli oppBCDF. All of the B. burgdorferi OppA proteins are able to complement E. coli OppBCDF to form a functional Opp transport system capable of transporting peptides for nutritional use. Although there is overlap in substrate specificities, the substrate specificities for B. burgdorferi OppAs are not identical to that of E. coli OppA. Transport of toxic peptides by B. burgdorferi grown in nutrient-rich medium parallels borrelial OppA substrate specificity in the complementation system. Use of this complementation system will pave the way for more detailed studies of B. burgdorferi peptide transport than currently available tools for manipulating borrelial DNA will allow. 相似文献
