A rat cDNA (rRam-1), which was cloned on the basis that it enables Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells to be infected by amphotropic host range murine retroviruses, was recently found to encode a widely expressed Na(+)-phosphate symporter (M. P. Kavanaugh, D. G. Miller, W. Zhang, W. Law, S. L. Kozak, D. Kabat, and A. D. Miller, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91:7071-7075, 1994). CHO cells express the hamster homolog of Ram-1 but are resistant to amphotropic retroviruses. Although the amphotropic envelope glycoprotein gp70 bound weakly onto control CHO cells, CHO/rRam-1 cells had novel high-affinity binding sites, and the resulting strongly adsorbed gp70 was only slowly removed from cell surfaces, with a half-life of greater than 6 h. CHO/rRam-1 cells were also specifically and efficiently killed by exposure to amphotropic gp70 followed by antiserum to gp70 in the presence of complement. Infection with an appropriately pseudotyped form of amphotropic retrovirus 4070A did not perturb control CHO cells or inhibit their phosphate transport. In contrast, 4070A infection of CHO/rRam-1 cells caused major alterations including cell-cell fusions, a specific 40% down-modulation of the rRam-1 component of phosphate transport, and complete interference to super-infection by amphotropic viruses. The 4070A virus-infected CHO/rRam-1 cells retained a substantial cell surface pool of rRam-1 that functioned as a phosphate transporter but not as a viral receptor. We conclude that amphotropic gp70 binds more strongly to rRam-1 than to the homologous hamster protein and that this stable attachment is necessary for infection, interference, membrane fusion, and pathogenesis.  相似文献

Chinese hamster ovary cells and NIH 3T3 cells overexpressing mutant human insulin receptors were examined for the presence of hybrid receptors composed of human and rodent insulin receptors. In the present studies, most of the endogenous rodent receptors were found to be immunoprecipitated from the transfected cells but not the parental cells with a monoclonal antibody specific for human receptor. These data indicate that in these transfected cells, most of the endogenous rodent receptors are in a hybrid complex with the overexpressed human receptor. These results together with the in vitro studies of Treadway et al. (Treadway, J.L., Morrison, B.D., Soos, M.A., Siddle, K., Olefsky, J., Ullrich, A., McClain, D.A., and Pessin, J.E. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 88, 214-218) showing that hybrid receptors exhibit transdominant inhibition explain the prior finding indicating that overexpression of defective insulin receptors interferes with the normal signaling of endogenous receptors.  相似文献

Human cellular DNA contains two distinguishable families of retroviral related sequences. One family shares extensive nucleotide sequence homology with infectious mammalian type C retroviral genomes (T. I. Bonner, C. O'Connell, and M. Cohen, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79:4709-4713, 1982; M. A. Martin, T. Bryan, S. Rasheed, and A. S. Khan, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78:4892-4896, 1981). The other family contains major regions of homology with the pol genes of infectious type A and B and avian type C and D retroviral genomes (R. Callahan, W. Drohan, S. Tronick, and J. Schlom, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79:5503-5507, 1982; I. M. Chiu, R. Callahan, S. R. Tronick, J. Schlom, and S. A. Aaronson, Science 223:364-370, 1984). Analysis of the human recombinant clone HLM-2 has shown that the pol gene in the latter family is located within an endogenous proviral genome (R. Callahan, I. M. Chiu, J. F. H. Wong, S. R. Tronick, B. A. Roe, S. A. Aaronson, and J. Schlom, Science 228:1208-1211, 1985). We show that the proviral genome in HLM-2 and the related recombinant clone HLM-25 are located, respectively, on human chromosomes 1 and 5. Other related proviral genomes are located on chromosomes 7, 8, 11, 14, and 17.  相似文献

The X-ray crystal structure of human soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) has been determined at 2.6 A resolution, revealing a domain-swapped quaternary structure identical to that observed for the murine enzyme [Argiriadi, M. A., Morisseau, C., Hammock, B. D., and Christianson, D. W. (1999) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 96, 10637-10642]. As with the murine enzyme, the epoxide hydrolytic mechanism of the human enzyme proceeds through an alkyl-enzyme intermediate with Asp-333 in the C-terminal domain. The structure of the human sEH complex with N-cyclohexyl-N'-(iodophenyl)urea (CIU) has been determined at 2.35 A resolution. Tyr-381 and Tyr-465 donate hydrogen bonds to the alkylurea carbonyl group of CIU, consistent with the proposed roles of these residues as proton donors in the first step of catalysis. The N-terminal domain of mammalian sEH contains a 15 A deep cleft, but its biological function is unclear. Recent experiments demonstrate that the N-terminal domain of human sEH catalyzes the metal-dependent hydrolysis of phosphate esters [Cronin, A., Mowbray, S., Dürk, H., Homburg, S., Fleming, I., Fisslthaler, B., Oesch, F., and Arand, M. (2003) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 100, 1552-1557; Newman, J. W., Morisseau, C., Harris, T. R., and Hammock, B. D. (2003) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 100, 1558-1563]. The binding of Mg(2+)-HPO4(2-) to the N-terminal domain of human sEH in its CIU complex reveals structural features relevant to those of the enzyme-substrate complex in the phosphatase reaction.  相似文献

Recombinant retroviral vectors are still the most common gene delivery vehicles for gene therapy purposes, especially for construction of genetically modified tumor vaccines (GMTV). However, these vehicles are characterized by relatively low titre and in the case of many tumor cell lines, low transduction efficiency. We constructed bicistronic retroviral vector pseudotypes of amphotropic murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV) and gibbon ape leukemia virus (GaLV), encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) as a rapid and easily detectable reporter gene. Transduction of five different human melanoma and four renal carcinoma cell lines by these two virus pseudotypes revealed differences in transduction efficiency, which wase markedly lower for the renal carcinoma cell lines. Stimulation of retroviral receptor expression (PiT1 and PiT2) by phosphate depletion induced a limited increase of receptor mRNA levels, but did not improve the gene transfer efficiency. In contrast, simultaneous transduction with both vector pseudotypes markedly increased the transduction efficiency, compared to GaLV or A-MuLV alone. The same effect could be achieved by several repeated exposures of target cells to fresh vector preparation. Overexpression of GaLV receptor (PiT1) in target cells significantly increased the transduction rate and enabled retrovirus mediated gene transfer into the cells which normally are not transducible by GaLV pseudotypes. We demonstrated that, using different transduction strategies, the relatively inefficient, widely used retroviral vector systems could be significantly improved.  相似文献

Mouse hepatitis virus binds to the N-terminal domain of its receptor, MHVR, a murine biliary glycoprotein with four immunoglobulin-like domains (G.S. Dveksler, M. N. Pensiero, C. W. Dieffenbach, C. B. Cardellichio, A.A. Basile, P.E. Elia, and K. V. Holmes, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:1716-1720, 1993). A recombinant protein with only the anchored N-terminal domain was not a functional receptor, but a recombinant protein with the N-terminal domain of MHVR linked to the second and third immunoglobulin-like domains and anchor from the mouse poliovirus receptor homolog, mph, was a functional receptor for mouse hepatitis virus. The native four-domain MHVR has 16 potential N-linked glycosylation sites, including three on the N-terminal domain. Recombinant proteins lacking each one of these three sites or all three of them were functional receptors. Thus, glycosylation of the N-terminal domain is not required, but a glycoprotein longer than the N-terminal domain is required for virus receptor activity.  相似文献

The P3HR-1 subclone of Jijoye differs from Jijoye and from other Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-infected cell lines in that the virus produced by P3HR-1 cultures lacks the ability to growth-transform normal B lymphocytes (Heston et al., Nature (London) 295:160-163, 1982; Miller et al., J. Virol. 18:1071-1080, 1976; Miller et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 71:4006-4010, 1974; Ragona et al., Virology 101:553-557, 1980). The P3HR-1 virus was known to be deleted for a region which encodes RNA in latently infected, growth-transformed cells (Bornkamm et al., J. Virol. 35:603-618, 1980; Heller et al., J. Virol. 38:632-648, 1981; King et al., J. Virol. 36:506-518, 1980; Raab-Traub et al., J. Virol. 27:388-398, 1978; van Santen et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78:1930-1934, 1980). This deletion is now more precisely defined. The P3HR-1 genome contains less than 170 base pairs (and possibly none) of the 3,300-base pair U2 region of EBV DNA and is also lacking IR2 (a 123-base pair repeat which is the right boundary of U2). A surprising finding is that EBV isolates vary in part of the U2 region. Two transforming EB viruses, AG876 and Jijoye, are deleted for part of the U2 region including most or all of a fragment, HinfI-c, which encodes part of one of the three more abundant cytoplasmic polyadenylated RNAs of growth-transformed cells (King et al., J. Virol. 36:506-518, 1980; King et al., J. Virol. 38:649-660, 1981; van Santen et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78:1930-1934).  相似文献

The oligosaccharide processing and secretion of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was studied in Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with the gene coding HBsAg. HBsAg was secreted from cells with a relatively long half time (ca. 5 h). This appeared to be a characteristic of HBsAg itself, since HBsAg-producing cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus transported the viral envelope glycoprotein to the cell surface with normal kinetics (half time of ca. 30 min). The secreted HBsAg was comprised of both the unglycosylated (P20) and the glycosylated (G25) polypeptides, characteristic of HBsAg isolated from human serum or secreted from other cell lines (C. W. Crowley, C.-C. Liu, and A. D. Levinson, Mol. Cell. Biol. 3:44-55, 1983; M. F. Dubois, C. Pourcel, S. Rousset, C. Chang, and P. Tiollais, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77:4549-4553, 1980; C.-C. Liu, D. Yansura, and A. D. Levinson, DNA, 1:213-221, 1982; G. M. Macnab, J. J. Alexander, G. Lecatsas, E. M. Bey, and J. M. Urbanocvicz, Br. J. Cancer, 24:509-515, 1976; A. M. Moriarity, B. H. Hoyer, J. W.-K. Shih, J. L. Gerin, and D. H. Hamer, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 78:2606-2610, 1981; D. L. Peterson, J. Biol. Chem., 256:6975-6983, 1981). The glycosylated polypeptide (GP25) contained complex oligosaccharide chains. Cell-associated HBsAg also was comprised of both an unglycosylated and a glycosylated polypeptide; however, the glycosylated form (GP23) contained only high-mannose oligosaccharide chains. No oligosaccharide processing of the high-mannose chains could be detected within the cells. Thus, most of the time before secretion of HBsAg from cells must have been spent in a pre-Golgi or early Golgi compartment. Glycosylation was inhibited completely by tunicamycin, although unglycosylated particles were still secreted from cells and were antigenic. The secretion and oligosaccharide processing of HBsAg were inhibited with high concentrations of monensin, but at lower concentrations of monensin HBsAg was still secreted, although only half of the oligosaccharide chains were processed to the complex form.  相似文献

In murine 17 Cl 1 cells persistently infected with murine coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 (MHV-A59), expression of the virus receptor glycoprotein MHVR was markedly reduced (S. G. Sawicki, J. H. Lu, and K. V. Holmes, J. Virol. 69:5535-5543, 1995). Virus isolated from passage 600 of the persistently infected cells made smaller plaques on 17 Cl 1 cells than did MHV-A59. Unlike the parental MHV-A59, this variant virus also infected the BHK-21 (BHK) line of hamster cells. Virus plaque purified on BHK cells (MHV/BHK) grew more slowly in murine cells than did MHV-A59, and the rate of viral RNA synthesis was lower and the development of the viral nucleocapsid (N) protein was slower than those of MHV-A59. MHV/BHK was 100-fold more resistant to neutralization with the purified soluble recombinant MHV receptor glycoprotein (sMHVR) than was MHV-A59. Pretreatment of 17 Cl 1 cells with anti-MHVR monoclonal antibody CC1 protected the cells from infection with MHV-A59 but only partially protected them from infection with MHV/BHK. Thus, although MHV/BHK could still utilize MHVR as a receptor, its interactions with the receptor were significantly different from those of MHV-A59. To determine whether a hemagglutinin esterase (HE) glycoprotein that could bind the virions to 9-O-acetylated neuraminic acid moieties on the cell surface was expressed by MHV/BHK, an in situ esterase assay was used. No expression of HE activity was detected in 17 Cl 1 cells infected with MHV/BHK, suggesting that this virus, like MHV-A59, bound to cell membranes via its S glycoprotein. MHV/BHK was able to infect cell lines from many mammalian species, including murine (17 Cl 1), hamster (BHK), feline (Fcwf), bovine (MDBK), rat (RIE), monkey (Vero), and human (L132 and HeLa) cell lines. MHV/BHK could not infect dog kidney (MDCK I) or swine testis (ST) cell lines. Thus, in persistently infected murine cell lines that express very low levels of virus receptor MHVR and which also have and may express alternative virus receptors of lesser efficiency, there is a strong selective advantage for virus with altered interactions with receptor (D. S. Chen, M. Asanaka, F. S. Chen, J. E. Shively, and M. M. C. Lai, J. Virol. 71:1688-1691, 1997; D. S. Chen, M. Asanaka, K. Yokomori, F.-I. Wang, S. B. Hwang, H.-P. Li, and M. M. C. Lai, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 92:12095-12099, 1995; P. Nedellec, G. S. Dveksler, E. Daniels, C. Turbide, B. Chow, A. A. Basile, K. V. Holmes, and N. Beauchemin, J. Virol. 68:4525-4537, 1994). Possibly, in coronavirus-infected animals, replication of the virus in tissues that express low levels of receptor might also select viruses with altered receptor recognition and extended host range.  相似文献

Previous kinetic and absorption hybridization experiments had demonstrated that the DNA of the B95-8 strain of Epstein-Barr virus was missing approximately 10% of the DNA sequences present in the DNA of the HR-1 strain (R.F. Pritchett, S.D. Hayward, and E. Kieff, J. Virol. 15:556-569, 1975; B. Sugder, W.C. Summers, and G. Klein, J. Virol. 18:765-775, 1976). The HR-1 strain differs from other laboratory strains, including the B95-8 and W91 strains, and from virus present in throat washings from patients with infectious mononucleosis in its inability to transform lymphocytes into lymphoblasts capable of long-term growth in culture (P. Gerber, Lancet i:1001, 1973; J. Menezes, W. Leibold, and G. Klein, Exp. Cell. Res. 92:478-484, 1975; G. Miller, D. Coope, J. Niederman, and J. Pagano, J. Virol. 18:1071-1080, 1976; G. Miller, J. Robinson, L. Heston, and M. Lipman, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 71:4006-4010, 1974). In the experiments reported here, the restriction enzyme fragments of Epstein-Barr virus DNA which contain sequences which differ among the HR-1, B95-8, and W91 strains have been identified. The DNA of the HR-1, B95-8, and W91 strains each differed in complexity. The sequences previously shown to be missing in the B95-8 strain were contained in the EcoRI-C and -D and Hsu I-E and -N fragments of the HR-1 strain and in the EcoRI-C and Hsu I-D and -E fragments of the W91 strain. The HR-1 strain was missing DNA contained in EcoRI fragments A and J through K and Hsu I fragment B of the B95-8 strain and in the EcoRI-A and Hsu I-B fragments of the W91 strain. The relationship of these data to the linkage map of restriction enzyme fragments of the DNA of the B95-8 and W91 strains (E. Kieff, N. Raab-Traub, D. Given, W. King, A.T. Powell, R. Pritchett, and T. Dambaugh, In F. Rapp and G. de-The, ed., Oncogenesis and Herpesviruses III, in press; D. Given and E. Kieff, submitted for publication) and the possible significance of the data are discussed.  相似文献

Human cells express distinct but related receptors for the gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV) and the amphotropic murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV), termed Pit1 and Pit2, respectively. Pit1 is not able to function as a receptor for A-MuLV infection, while Pit2 does not confer susceptibility to GALV. Previous studies of chimeric receptors constructed by interchanging regions of Pit1 and Pit2 failed to clarify the determinants unique to Pit2 which correlate with A-MuLV receptor function. In order to identify which regions of Pit2 are involved in A-MuLV receptor function, we exchanged the putative second and third extracellular domains of Pit1, either individually or together, with the corresponding regions of Pit2. Our functional characterization of these receptors indicates a role for the putative second extracellular domain (domain II) in A-MuLV infection. We further investigated the influence of domain II with respect to A-MuLV receptor function by performing site-specific mutagenesis within this region of Pit2. Many of the mutations had little or no effect on receptor function. However, the substitution of serine for methionine at position 138 (S138M) in a Pit1 chimera containing domain II of Pit2 resulted in a 1,000-fold reduction in A-MuLV receptor function. Additional mutations made within domain II of the nonfunctional S138M mutant restored receptor function to nearly wild-type efficiency. The high degree of tolerance for mutations as well as the compensatory effect of particular substitutions observed within domain II suggests that an element of secondary structure within this region plays a critical role in the interaction of the receptor with A-MuLV.  相似文献

Expression of insulin metabolic effects can be obtained by anti-receptor antibodies without activation of the tyrosine kinase activity [O'Brien R. M., Soos M. A. and Siddle K. (1987) EMBO J. 6, 4003-4010; Forsayeth J. R., Caro J. F., Sinha M. K., Maddux B. A. and Goldfine I. D. (1987) Proc. natn. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 84, 34,448-34,514; Ponzio G., Contreres J. O., Debant A., Baron V., Gautier N., Dolais-Kitabgi J. and Rossi B. (1988) EMBO J. 7, 4111-4117; Hawley D. M., Maddux B. A., Patel R. G., Wong K. Y., Mamula P. W., Firestone G. L., Brunetti A., Verspohl E. and Goldfine I. D. (1989) J. biol. Chem. 264, 2438-2444; Soos M. A., O'Brien R. M., Brindle N. P. J., Stigter J. M., Okamoto A. K., Whittaker J. and Siddle K. (1989) Proc. natn. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 5217-5221.]. Recently, we have proposed that receptor cross-linking is sufficient in itself to stimulate glycogen synthesis, even if aggregation was performed on receptors mutated on Tyr 1162 and Tyr 1163 and thus devoid of tyrosine kinase activity [Debant A., Ponzio G., Clauser E., Contreres J. O. and Rossi B. (1989) Biochemistry 28, 14-17]. The aim of this study was to gain information on the involvement of receptor clustering in the expression of the different insulin biological effects. To this end, we studied the mimetic effects of wheat-germ agglutinin, which is likely to induce receptor aggregation without interacting with the receptor protein moiety. Wheat-germ agglutinin failed to promote DNA synthesis, whereas the lectin behaved as a potent mimicker of insulin on tyrosine aminotransferase activity and amino-acid transport. However, this stimulatory effect did not parallel the activation of receptor autophosphorylation. Our data reinforce the idea that the expression of the metabolic effects of insulin are not strictly dependent on a general tyrosine kinase activation.  相似文献

Pit1 is the human receptor for gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV) and feline leukemia virus subgroup B (FeLV-B), while the related human protein Pit2 is a receptor for amphotropic murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV). The A-MuLV-related isolate 10A1 can utilize both Pit1 and Pit2 as receptors. A stretch of amino acids named region A was identified in Pit1 (residues 550 to 558 in loop 4) as critical for GALV and FeLV-B receptor function. We have here investigated the role of region A in A-MuLV and 10A1 entry. Insertion of a single amino acid in region A of mouse Pit1 resulted in a functional A-MuLV receptor, showing that region A plays a role in A-MuLV infection. Moreover, the downregulation of 10A1 receptor function by changes in region A of human Pit1 indicates that this region is also involved in 10A1 entry. Therefore, region A seems to play a role in infection by all viruses utilizing Pit1 and/or Pit2 as receptors.  相似文献

Rabbit alveolar macrophages exhibit high affinity surface receptors which recognize alpha 2-macroglobulin . protease complexes but not native alpha 2- macroglobulin. Binding of alpha 2-macroglobulin . protease complexes to surface receptors is independent of the protease used to form the complex. In this communication, we demonstrate that treatment of human alpha 2-macroglobulin with nucleophilic agents (methyl amine, ammonium salts) converts native alpha 2-macroglobulin into a form recognized by the surface receptor for alpha 2-macroglobulin protease complexes. Analysis of the concentration dependency of ligand binding revealed that the surface receptor did not distinguish between nucleophile-treated alpha 2-macroglobulin and alpha 2-macroglobulin . protease complexes. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that proteases or nucleophilic agents effect the hydrolysis of an internal thiol-ester bond (Tack, B. F., Harrison, R. A., Janatova, J., Thomas, M. L., and Prahl, J. W. (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 77, 5764-5768), leading to an alteration in alpha 2-macroglobulin conformation. The altered conformation results in recognition of the alpha 2-macroglobulin by surface receptors.  相似文献

We have previously reported the unique properties of a receptor for amphotropic murine leukemia viruses (A-MuLVs) expressed on Chinese hamster E36 cells (C.A. Wilson, K.B. Farrell, and M.V. Eiden, J. Virol. 68:7697-7703, 1994). This receptor, HaPiT2 (formerly designated EAR), in contrast to the human form of the A-MuLV receptor (PiT2), functions as a receptor not only for A-MuLVs but also for gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV). Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of the HaPiT2 and PiT2 proteins suggested that differences in the amino acid composition of the extracellular region(s) of the hamster and human proteins account for their functional differences. We substituted extracellular regions of HaPiT2 for those of PiT2 to map the region of the HaPiT2 protein required for GALV receptor function. Only those PiT2-HaPiT2 chimeric receptors containing the fourth and fifth extracellular regions of HaPiT2 functioned as GALV receptors. We have now determined that the substitution of a single amino acid residue, glutamic acid, for the lysine residue at position 522 in the fourth extracellular region of the PiT2 protein is sufficient to render PiT2 functional as a GALV receptor.  相似文献

The N-terminal segment of human interleukin-2 (hIL-2) appears to mediate binding of the beta hIL-2 receptor (R. Robb, C. Rusk, J. Yodoi, and W. Greene, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:2002-2006, 1987). An affinity-purified antibody prepared against this peptide segment (p81) is shown here to cross-react with a homologous region of the human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) envelope glycoprotein, raising the interesting possibility that the envelope glycoprotein of HTLV-I can interact with the beta hIL-2 receptor.  相似文献

The epidermal growth factor (EGF) can be isolated from the submaxillary gland of the adult male mouse as part of a high molecular weight complex (HMW-EGF). This complex can be reversibly dissociated into its subunits, EGF AND EGF-binding protein, an arginine esteropeptidase (Taylor, J. M., Cohen, S., and Mitchell, W. M. (1970) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.
