草菇热激蛋白60基因(Vvhsp60)生物信息学分析及低温下的表达

【背景】生物受到温度胁迫时,热激蛋白被诱导并在短时间内大量产生,可以使受损的蛋白质恢复正常构象,增强生物对逆境胁迫的耐受性。【目的】初步探究草菇热激蛋白60(Vvhsp60)与低温耐受性的关系,为深入开展草菇不耐低温特性的遗传改良奠定理论基础。【方法】对Vvhsp60进行生物信息学分析,以低温敏感型草菇菌株V23及耐低温菌株VH3为实验材料,利用实时荧光定量PCR技术分析低温胁迫及热激诱导后在低温下草菇菌丝体中Vvhsp60基因的表达水平。【结果】草菇Vvhsp60编码蛋白不存在信号肽,不属于分泌蛋白,在线粒体和细胞质内发挥生物学作用,属于双向跨膜蛋白。低温处理显著提高了V23与VH3菌丝体中Vvhsp60基因的表达量,而且VH3中的表达量显著高于V23,推测Vvhsp60基因的表达量高可能有助于增强草菇对低温胁迫的耐受性。经热激处理后两菌株Vvhsp60基因的表达量显著高于各自未热激处理的对照组,表明热激处理可诱导Vvhsp60基因的表达。【结论】Vvhsp60与草菇低温耐受性相关,并且热激可以诱导Vvhsp60基因的表达。

CspI, the ninth member of the CspA family of Escherichia coli, is induced upon cold shock

Escherichia coli contains the CspA family, consisting of nine proteins (CspA to CspI), in which CspA, CspB, and CspG have been shown to be cold shock inducible and CspD has been shown to be stationary-phase inducible. The cspI gene is located at 35.2 min on the E. coli chromosome map, and CspI shows 70, 70, and 79% identity to CspA, CspB, and CspG, respectively. Analyses of cspI-lacZ fusion constructs and the cspI mRNA revealed that cspI is cold shock inducible. The 5'-untranslated region of the cspI mRNA consists of 145 bases and causes a negative effect on cspI expression at 37 degrees C. The cspI mRNA was very unstable at 37 degrees C but was stabilized upon cold shock. Analyses of the CspI protein on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that CspI production is maximal at or below 15 degrees C. Taking these results together, E. coli possesses a total of four cold shock-inducible proteins in the CspA family. Interestingly, the optimal temperature ranges for their induction are different: CspA induction occurs over the broadest temperature range (30 to 10 degrees C), CspI induction occurs over the narrowest and lowest temperature range (15 to 10 degrees C), and CspB and CspG occurs at temperatures between the above extremes (20 to 10 degrees C).     

Isolation and purification of cytokinin binding protein from tobacco leaves by affinity column chromatography

Cytokinin binding protein from tobacco leaves was isolated and purified to a single protein by means of affinity chromatography on benzyladenine-linked Sepharose column combined with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In vitro binding of this protein to [¹⁴C] benzyladenine was inhibited remarkably by cold benzyladenine and kinetin and slightly by adenine, but not adenosine. The molecular weight of the protein was determined to be about 4,000 daltons by gel filtration and SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.     

Isolation of a thiamine-binding protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Thiamine-binding protein was isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by successive procedures of cold osmotic shock treatment, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and ultrafiltration. The purified thiamine-binding protein was an electrophoretically homogeneous molecule which appeared to be a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 140 000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. No thiamine-binding protein was observed by disc gel electrophoresis in the shock fluid released from yeast cells grown in the presence of 1 muM thiamine, indicating that the formation of this protein is regulated by exogenous thiamine as previously suggested.     

gid1, a gibberellin-insensitive dwarf mutant, shows altered regulation of probenazole-inducible protein (PBZ1) in response to cold stress and pathogen attack

A recessive gibberellin (GA)-insensitive dwarf mutant of rice, gibberellin-insensitive dwarf1 (gid1), has been identified, which shows a severe dwarf phenotype and contains high concentrations of endogenous GA. To elucidate the function of gid1, proteins regulated downstream of gid1 were analysed using a proteomic approach. Proteins extracted from suspension-cultured cells of gid1 and its wild type were separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE). Of a total of 962 proteins identified from the suspension-cultured cells, 16 were increased and 14 were decreased in gid1 compared with its wild type. Among the proteins hyper-accumulated in gid1 were osmotin, triosephosphate isomerase, probenazole inducible protein (PBZ1) and pathogenesis-related protein 10. Of these four genes, only the expression of PBZ1 was increased by exogenous GA3 application. Expression of this gene was also enhanced in shoots of the wild type by cold stress or by rice blast fungus infection. Under normal growth conditions, there was more PBZ1 protein in gid1 than in the wild type. In addition, gid1 showed increased tolerance to cold stress and resistance to blast fungus infection. The entcopalyl diphosphate synthase (OsCPS) genes, which encode enzymes at the branch point between GA and phytoalexin biosynthesis, were expressed differentially in gid1 relative to the wild type. Specifically, OsCPS1, which encodes an enzyme in the GA biosynthesis pathway, was down-regulated and OsCPS2 and OsCPS4, which encode enzymes in phytoalexin biosynthesis, were up-regulated in gid1. These results suggest that the expression of PBZ1 is regulated by GA signalling and stress stimuli, and that gid1 is involved in tolerance to cold stress and resistance to blast fungus.     

Cold shock and cold acclimation proteins in the psychrotrophic bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis SI55.

The psychrotrophic bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis SI55 was grown at 4 and 25 degrees C, and the cell protein contents were analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis. Cells subjected to cold shocks of increasing magnitude were also analyzed. Correspondence analysis of protein appearance distinguished four groups of physiological significance. Group I contained cold shock proteins (Csps) overexpressed only after a large temperature downshift. Group II contained Csps with optimal expression after mild shocks. Group III contained proteins overexpressed after all cold shocks. These last proteins were also overexpressed in cells growing at 4 degrees C and were considered to be early cold acclimation proteins (Caps). Group IV contained proteins which were present at high concentrations only in 4 degrees C steady-state cells and appeared to be late Caps. A portion of a gene very similar to the Escherichia coli cspA gene (encoding protein CS7.4) was identified. A synthetic peptide was used to produce an antibody which detected a CS7.4-like protein (A9) by immunoblotting two-dimensional electrophoresis gels of A. globiformis SI55 total proteins. Unlike mesophilic microorganisms, this CS7.4-like protein was still produced during prolonged growth at low temperature, and it might have a particular adaptive function needed for balanced growth under harsh conditions. However, A9 was induced at high temperature by chloramphenicol, suggesting that CS7.4-like proteins have a more general role than their sole implication in cold acclimation processes.     

Identification of an osmotically induced periplasmic glycine betaine-binding protein from Rhizobium meliloti.

The effect of salt stress on glycine betaine-binding activity has been investigated in periplasmic fractions released from Rhizobium meliloti 102F34 by cold osmotic shock. Binding activity was monitored by three techniques: equilibrium dialysis, filter procedure, and detection of 14C ligand-protein binding by direct non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) followed by autoradiography. The three methods demonstrated the existence of a strong glycine betaine-binding activity, but only in periplasmic fractions from cells grown at high osmolarity. The non-denaturing PAGE of such periplasmic shock fluids mixed with [methyl-14C]glycine betaine showed only one radioactive band, indicating the involvement of one glycine betaine-binding protein. To determine the possible implication of this binding protein in glycine betaine uptake, transport activity was measured with cells submitted to cold osmotic shock. No significant decrease of transport activity was noticed. This lack of effect could be explained by the small quantity of periplasmic proteins released as judged by the low activity of phosphodiesterase, a periplasmic marker enzyme, observed in the shock fluid. The specificity of binding was analysed with different potential competitors: other betaines such as gamma-butyrobetaine, proline betaine, pipecolate betaine, trigonelline and homarine, or amino acids like glycine and proline, did not bind to the glycine betaine-binding protein, whereas glycine betaine aldehyde and choline were weak competitors. Optimum pH for binding was around 7.0, but approx. 90% of the glycine betaine-binding activity remained at pH 6.0 or 8.0. The calculated binding affinity (KD) was 2.5 microM. Both glycine betaine-binding activity and affinity were not significantly modified whether or not the binding assays were done at high osmolarity. A 32 kDa osmotically inducible periplasmic protein, identified by SDS-PAGE, apparently corresponds to the glycine betaine-binding protein.

Purification and properties of trimethylamine oxide reductase from Salmonella typhimurium.

The major inducible trimethylamine oxide reductase was purified from Salmonella typhimurium LT2. The molecular weights of the native enzyme were estimated to be 332,000 by gel filtration and 170,000 by nondenaturing disc gel electrophoresis. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis, the enzyme formed a single band of molecular weight 84,000. The isoelectric point was 4.28. Maximum activity was at pH 5.65 and 45 degrees C. Reduced flavin mononucleotide, but not reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide, served as an electron donor. The Km for trimethylamine oxide was 0.89 mM and Vmax was 1,450 U/mg of protein. The enzyme reduced chlorate with a Km of 2.2 mM and a Vmax of 350 U/mg of protein.     

Increase in negative supercoiling of plasmid DNA in Escherichia coli exposed to cold shock

Negative supercoiling of plasmid DNA in Escherichia coli cells can decrease transiently when exposed to heat shock. The effect of cold shock on DNA supercoiling was examined, and analysis by agarose gel electrophoresis in the presence of chloroquine revealed that negative supercoiling of plasmid DNA in cells increased when cells were exposed to cold shock. This increase was transient and was nil when the cells were pretreated with nalidixic acid, an inhibitor of DNA gyrase. In a mutant deficient in expression of HU protein, the increase in negative supercoiling of DNA by cold shock is less apparent than in wild-type cells. It is proposed that DNA gyrase and HU protein have a role in the DNA supercoiling reaction seen with cold shock.
