AbstractComplete functional annotations of proteins are essential to understand the role and mechanisms in pathogenesis. Aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferases are the subclasses of aminoglycosides modifying enzymes conferring resistance to organisms. Insight into the structural and functional understanding of nucleotidyltransferase family protein provides vital information to combat pathogenesis. Phylogenetic analysis is employed to identify the evolutionary significance and common motif’s present among the homologs of nucleotidyltransferase family protein. Structure, sequence based approaches and molecular docking were implemented to predict the exact function of the protein. Wide distribution of the nucleotidyltransferase family protein in gram-positive and gram-negative organisms are evidenced from phylogenetic analysis. Five common motifs were present in all the homolog’s of nucleotidyltransferase family protein. Sequence-structure based functional annotations predicts that the targeted protein function as ATP-Mg dependent streptomycin adenylyltransferase. Structural comparisons and docking studies correlate well with the identified function. The complete function of nucleotidyltransferase family protein was identified as Streptomycin adenylyltransferase and it could be targeted as a potential therapeutic target to overcome antibiotic resistance.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

AbstractPhosphorylation of protein is critical for various cell processes, which preferentially happens in intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs). How phosphorylation modulates structural ensemble of disordered peptide remains largely unexplored. Here, using replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) and Markov state model (MSM), the conformational distribution and kinetics of p53 N-terminal transactivation domain (TAD) 2 as well as its dual-site phosphorylated form (pSer46, pThr55) were simulated. It reveals that the dual phosphorylation does not change overall size and secondary structure element fraction, while a change in the distribution of hydrogen bonds induces slightly more pre-existing bound helical conformations. MSM analysis indicates that the dual phosphorylation accelerates conformation exchange between disordered and order-like states in target-binding region. It suggests that p53 TAD2 after phosphorylation would be more apt to bind to both the human p62 pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and the yeast tfb1?PH domain through different binding mechanism, where experimentally it exhibits an extended and α-helix conformation, respectively, with increased binding strength in both complexes. Our study implies except binding interface, both conformation ensemble and kinetics should be considered for the effects of phosphorylation on IDPs.

AbstractBy having knowledge about the characteristics of protein interaction interfaces, we will be able to manipulate protein complexes for therapies. Dimer state is considered as the primary alphabet of the most proteins’ quaternary structure. The properties of binding interface between subunits and of noninterface region define the specificity and stability of the intended protein complex. Considering some topological properties and amino acids’ affinity for binding in interfaces of protein dimers, we construct the interface-specific recurrence plots. The data obtained from recurrence quantitative analysis, and accessibility-related metrics help us to classify the protein dimers into four distinct classes. Some mechanical properties of binding interfaces are computed for each predefined class of the dimers. The computed mechanical characteristics of binding patch region are compared with those of nonbinding region of proteins. Our observations indicate that the mechanical properties of protein binding sites have a decisive impact on determining the dimer stability. We introduce a new concept in analyzing protein structure by considering mechanical properties of protein structure. We conclude that the interface region between subunits of stable dimers is usually mechanically softer than the interface of unstable protein dimers.

AbstractPyrazinamide (PZA) is an important component of first-line anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) drugs. The anti-TB agent is activated into an active form, pyrazinoic acid (POA), by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) pncA gene encoding pyrazinamidase (PZase). The major cause of PZA-resistance has been associated with mutations in the pncA gene. We have detected several novel mutations including V131F, Q141P, R154T, A170P, and V180F (GeneBank Accession No. MH461111) in the pncA gene of PZA-resistant isolates during PZA drug susceptibility testing followed by pncA gene sequencing. Here, we investigated molecular mechanism of PZA-resistance by comparing the results of experimental and molecular dynamics. The mutants (MTs) and wild type (WT) PZase structures in apo and complex with PZA were subjected to molecular dynamic simulations (MD) at the 40?ns. Multiple factors, including root mean square deviations (RMSD), binding pocket, total energy, dynamic cross correlation, and root mean square fluctuations (RMSF) of MTs and WT were compared. The MTs attained a high deviation and fluctuation compared to WT. Binding pocket volumes of the MTs, were found, lower than the WT, and the docking scores were high than WT while shape complementarity scores were lower than that of the WT. Residual motion in MTs are seemed to be dominant in anti-correlated motion. Mutations at locations, V131F, Q141P, R154T, A170P, and V180F, might be involved in the structural changes, possibly affecting the catalytic property of PZase to convert PZA into POA. Our study provides useful information that will enhance the understanding for better management of TB.

AbstractPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are considered important targets for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes (T2DM). To accelerate the discovery of PPAR α/γ dual agonists, the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) were performed for PPARα and PPARγ, respectively. Based on the molecular alignment, highly predictive CoMFA model for PPARα was obtained with a cross-validated q2 value of 0.741 and a conventional r2 of 0.975 in the non-cross-validated partial least-squares (PLS) analysis, while the CoMFA model for PPARγ with a better predictive ability was shown with q2 and r2 values of 0.557 and 0.996, respectively. Contour maps derived from the 3D-QSAR models provided information on main factors towards the activity. Then, we carried out structural optimization and designed several new compounds to improve the predicted biological activity. To investigate the binding modes of the predicted compounds in the active site of PPARα/γ, a molecular docking simulation was carried out. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations indicated that the predicted ligands were stable in the active site of PPARα/γ. Therefore, combination of the CoMFA and structure-based drug design results could be used for further structural alteration and synthesis and development of novel and potent dual agonists.

The metastatic spread of tumors is a well-coordinated process in which different types ofcancers tend to form metastases in defined organs. The formation of site-specific metastasesrequires full compatibility between the intrinsic properties of the tumor cells and the tumormicroenvironment. It was recently found that chemokines which are expressed in specific locipromote the adhesion, migration and invasion of tumor cells that express the correspondingreceptor/s. Of the different members of the family, the CXCL12 chemokine and its cognateCXCR4 receptor are the prototypes of this process, although other members of the family (e.g.CCR7 and CCR10) also play a role in determination of the metastatic spread. This commentaryaddresses the fundamental roles of chemokines and their receptors in site-specific metastasis,with emphasis on CXCL12-CXCR4. The article also describes some of the efforts that wereperformed thus far in order to identify the intracellular components involved in this process. Thefocus is put on the roles played by proteins that regulate adhesion and migration of tumor cellsin response to CXCL12, including mainly Focal Adhesion Kinase, Pyk2/RAFTK and members ofthe Rho family of GTPases (RhoA, Rac, Cdc42). This is followed by discussion of openquestions that need to be addressed in future research, and of the potential therapeuticimplications of the findings that are available to date in this field. 相似文献

Cells undergoing apoptosis in vivo are rapidly detected and cleared by phagocytes. Swiftrecognition and removal of apoptotic cells is important for normal tissue homeostasisand failure in the underlying clearance mechanisms has pathological consequencesassociated with inflammatory and auto-immune diseases. Cell cultures in vitro usuallylack the capacity for removal of non-viable cells because of the absence of phagocytesand, as such, fail to emulate the healthy in vivo micro-environment from which dead cellsare absent. While a key objective in cell culture is to maintain viability at maximal levels,cell death is unavoidable and non-viable cells frequently contaminate cultures insignificant numbers. Here we show that the presence of apoptotic cells in monoclonalantibody-producing hybridoma cultures has markedly detrimental effects on antibodyproductivity. Removal of apoptotic hybridoma cells by macrophages at the time ofseeding resulted in 100% improved antibody productivity that was, surprisingly to us,most pronounced late on in the cultures. Furthermore, we were able to recapitulate thiseffect using novel super-paramagnetic Dead-Cert?Nanoparticles to remove non-viablecells simply and effectively at culture seeding. These results (1) provide direct evidencethat apoptotic cells have a profound influence on their non-phagocytic neighbours inculture and (2) demonstrate the effectiveness of a simple dead-cell removal strategy forimproving antibody manufacture in vitro. 相似文献

AbstractThe pre-crystallization solution of the transaminase from Thermobaculum terrenum (TaTT) has been studied by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Regular changes in the oligomeric composition of the protein were observed after the addition of the precipitant. Comparison of the observed oligomers with the crystal structure of TaTT (PDB ID 6GKR) shows that dodecamers may act as building blocks in the growth of transaminase single crystals. Correlating of these results to the similar X-ray studies of other proteins suggests that SAXS may be a valuable tool for searching optimum crystallization conditions.
