Clonorchis sinensis: molecular cloning and characterization of 28-kDa glutathione S-transferase 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

A 28-kDa glutathione S-transferase (Cs28GST) was purified from a Clonorchis sinensis cytosolic fraction through anion-exchange and glutathione-affinity column chromatographies. A monoclonal antibody raised against Cs28GST reacted specifically to the C. sinensis antigen among trematode proteins. A putative peptide of 212 amino residues deduced from a cDNA clone appeared homologous with 28-kDa GST of trematodes, and its secondary structural elements predicted a GSH-binding site. Recombinant Cs28GST showed GST enzyme activity with CDNB substrate and was sensitive to the model inhibitors. The recombinant Cs28GST was antigenically indistinguishable from the native form and was recognized specifically by C. sinensis-infected human sera. The Cs28GST was localized in the tegument and underlying mesenchymal tissues. It is suggested that Cs28GST may play significant physiological roles against bioreactive molecules and be a useful reagent for serodiagnosis of clonorchiasis. 相似文献

Human Clonorchis sinensis infection is endemic in East Asian countries. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are anti-oxidant enzymes found in all living creatures as well as in trematodes. In this study, we examined the recombinant 26kDa GST protein of C. sinensis (Cs26GST) for its serodiagnostic antigenicity toward IgG and IgE antibodies by ELISA and immuno-enhanced chemiluminescence, respectively. In IgG ELISA, recombinant Cs26GST showed 33.3% sensitivity and 100% specificity for trematode-infected human sera. In the case of the IgE antibody, recombinant Cs26GST showed 50.0% sensitivity and 93.2% specificity for clonorchiasis infection. We propose that the recombinant Cs26GST is a potent serodiagnostic antigen for detecting C. sinensis-specific IgG and IgE antibodies, and that it be best used as an antigenic cocktail in combination with other antigens. 相似文献

Glutathione S-transferase (28GST) with molecular mass of 28 kDa is an antioxidant enzyme abundant in Clonorchis sinensis. In adult C. sinensis, 28GST was localized in tegumental syncytium, cytons, parenchyma, and sperm tails examined by immunoelectron microscopy. C. sinensis 28GST was earlier found to neutralize bioreactive compounds and to be rich in eggs. Accordingly, it is suggested that 28GST plays important roles in phase II defense system and physiological roles in worm fecundity of C. sinensis. 相似文献

In the course of Clonorchis sinensis infection, antigens presented to the hosts may be in a close relation to growth of the fluke. The antigenic proteins stimulating IgG antibody production were chronologically identified by immunoblot and localized by immunohistochemical staining. In the early stage of infection until 12 weeks post-infection (PI), antigens were proteins with molecular mass larger than 34 kDa which were derived from the tegument, testes and intrauterine eggs. After 20 weeks PI, antigens recognized were 29, 27 and 26 kDa proteins from the intestine, excretory bladder and reproductive organs. It is suggested that the tegumental proteins are the most potent antigens and the excretory-secretory proteins with middle molecular mass of 26-45 kDa contribute to the high level production of antibodies after 20 weeks of the C. sinensis infection. 相似文献

An immunohistochemical study was performed to demonstrate comparative antigenicity of each body structure of the liver fluke, Clonorchis sinensis, such as the digestive tract, reproductive organs, excretory system, tegument and suckers. Indirect immunoperoxidase technique was applied, using formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded sections of C. sinensis as the antigen. Pooled cat sera obtained 10 weeks after an experimental infection with C. sinensis and peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-cat IgG were used as the primary and secondary antibodies, respectively. The intensity of immunohistochemical stain was very sensitive upon the titers of the primary and secondary antibodies, and their optimum dilutions were found to be 1:1,000-1:2,000 and 1:1,000, respectively. The intestinal epithelial cells, intestinal content and excretory bladder showed strong positive coloring reactions even at lower titer (1:2,000) of the primary antibody, whereas the uterine wall and eggs, vitelline glands, and male reproductive organs showed only weak positive reactions despite an increase in the antibody titer (1:1,000). On the other hand, the suckers, tegument, subtegumental cells and other parenchyma portions did not reveal any positive immunoperoxidase reaction at the same antibody titers. From the above results, it is highly suggested that the most potent antigenicity of C. sinensis occur from their excretory-secretory substances originated from the digestive and excretory organs. 相似文献

The complete gene of cytosolic malate dehydrogenase (cMDH) from Camellia sinensis, called Cs cMDH, was obtained by RT PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (GenBank accession number GQ845406). This gene was 1 235 bp in length, encoding a protein of 332 amino acids with the putative molecular weight of 355 kD. The Ecoli Rosetta (DE3) harboring pGEX MDH was induced by 05 mmol·L 1 IPTG at 32℃ for 3 hours, and a 615 kD glutathione Stransferase (GST) fused MDH was obtained in soluble form. The results of NCBI BLAST revealed that Cs cMDH shared 88%-93% of amino acid sequence identity with other cMDH from different higher plants. According to the multiple sequence alignment based on the three dimensional structure of protein, Cs cMDH was predicted to be a dimer with thirteen β sheet and thirteen α helix of each subunit. Cs cMDH contains typical fingerprint sequence (G12AAGQIG18) as all MDHs. The amino acid D43 in Cs cMDH is conserved in all NAD MDHs. Cs cMDH also has some conserved sequence units homologous to other NAD MDHs, such as NAD+ binding sites, catalytic motif and substrate binding sites. Moreover, Cs cMDH contains six Cys which are highly conserved in all plant NAD cMDHs. Therefore, Cs cMDH was inferred to be NAD dependent cMDH. The present study may provide the fundament for the further functional characterization of Cs cMDH. 相似文献

Human clonorchiasis has been increasingly prevalent in recent years and results in a threat to the public health in epidemic regions, motivating current strategies of vaccines to combat Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis). In this study, we identified C. sinensis paramyosin (CsPmy) from the cyst wall proteins of metacercariae by proteomic approaches and characterized the expressed recombinant pET-26b-CsPmy protein (101 kDa). Bioinformatics analysis indicated that full-length sequences of paramyosin are conserved in helminthes and numerous B-cell/T-cell epitopes were predicted in amino acid sequence of CsPmy. Western blot analysis showed that CsPmy was expressed at four life stages of C. sinensis, both cyst wall proteins and soluble tegumental components could be probed by anti-CsPmy serum. Moreover, immunolocalization results revealed that CsPmy was specifically localized at cyst wall and excretory bladder of metacercaria, as well as the tegument, oral sucker and vitellarium of adult worm. Both immunoblot and immunolocalization results demonstrated that CsPmy was highly expressed at the stage of adult worm, metacercariae and cercaria, which could be supported by real-time PCR analysis. Both recombinant protein and nucleic acid of CsPmy showed strong immunogenicity in rats and induced combined Th1/Th2 immune responses, which were reflected by continuous high level of antibody titers and increased level of IgG1/IgG2a subtypes in serum. In vaccine trials, comparing with control groups, both CsPmy protein and DNA vaccine exhibited protective effect with significant worm reduction rate of 54.3% (p<0.05) and 36.1% (p<0.05), respectively. In consistence with immune responses in sera, elevated level of cytokines IFN-γ and IL-4 in splenocytes suggested that CsPmy could induce combined cellular immunity and humoral immunity in host. Taken together, CsPmy could be a promising vaccine candidate in the prevention of C. sinensis regarding its high immunogenicity and surface localization. 相似文献

Aminopeptidases serve vital roles in metabolism of hormones, neurotransmission, turnover of proteins and immunological regulations. Leucine aminopeptidases catalyze the hydrolysis of amino-acid residues from the N-terminus of proteins and peptides. In the present study, leucine aminopeptidase 2 (LAP2) gene of Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis) was isolated and identified from an adult cDNA library of C. sinensis. Recombinant CsLAP2 was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli BL21. The open reading frame of LAP2 contains 1,560?bp equivalent to 519 amino acids, a similarity analysis showed a relatively low homology with Homo sapiens (19.0?%), Trypanosoma cruzi (18.0?%), Mus musculus (19.3?%), and relatively high homology with Schistosoma mansoni (65.6?%). The optimum condition of rCsLAP2 enzyme activity was investigated using a fluorescent substrate of Leu-MCA at 37?°C and pH 7.5. The K (m) and V (max) values of rCsLAP2 were 18.2?μM and 10.7?μM/min, respectively. CsLAP2 gene expression can be detected at the stages of the adult worm, metacercaria, excysted metacercaria and egg of C. sinensis using real-time PCR, no difference was observed at the stages of the adult worm, metacercaria and egg. However, CsLAP2 showed a higher expression level at the stage of excysted metacercaria than the adult worm (3.90-fold), metacercaria (4.60-fold) and egg (4.59-fold). Histochemistry analysis showed that CsLAP2 was located at the tegument and excretory vesicle of metacercaria, and the tegument and intestine of adult worm. The immune response specific to rCsLAP2 was characterized by a mixed response patterns of Th1 and Th2, indicating a compounded humoral and cellular immune response. The combined results from the present study indicate that CsLAP2 was an important antigen exposed to host immune system, and probably implicated as potential role in interaction with host cells in clonorchiasis. 相似文献

Characterization of glutathione S-transferase of Taenia solium. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A Taenia solium glutathione-S-transferase fraction (SGSTF) was isolated from a metacestode crude extract by affinity chromatography on reduced glutathione (GSH)-sepharose. The purified fraction displayed a specific glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity of 2.8 micromol/min/mg and glutathione peroxidase selenium-independent activity of 0.22 micromol/min/mg. Enzymatic characterization of the fraction suggested that the activity was closer to the mammalian mu-class GSTs. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, gel filtration, and enzyme activity analysis showed that the fraction was composed of a major band of Mr = 26 kd and that the active enzyme was dimeric. Immunohistochemical studies using specific antibodies against the major 26-kd band of the SGSTF indicated that GST protein was present in the tegument, parenchyma, protonephridial, and tegumentary cytons of the T. solium metacestode. Antibodies generated against the SGSTF tested in western blot showed cross-reactivity against GSTs purified from Taenia saginata, T. taeniaeformis, and T. crassiceps, but did not react with GSTs from Schistosoma mansoni, or mice, rabbit, and pig liver tissue. Furthermore, immunization of mice with SGSTF reduced the metacestode burden up to 74.2%. Our findings argue in favor of GST having an important role in the survival of T. solium in its hosts. 相似文献

Herpesviruses specify a ubiquitin-specific protease activity located within their largest tegument protein. Although its biological role is still largely unclear, mutation within the active site abolished deubiquitinating (DUB) activity and decreased virus replication in vitro and in vivo. To further elucidate the role of DUB activity for herpesvirus replication, the conserved active-site cysteine at amino acid position 26 within pUL36 of Pseudorabies virus (PrV) (Suid herpesvirus 1), a neurotropic alphaherpesvirus, was mutated to serine. Whereas one-step growth kinetics of the resulting mutant virus PrV-UL36(C(26)S) were moderately reduced, plaque size was decreased to 62% of that of the wild-type virus. Ultrastructural analysis revealed large accumulations of unenveloped nucleocapsids in the cytoplasm, but incorporation of the tegument protein pUL37 was not abolished. After intranasal infection with PrV-UL36(C(26)S) mice showed survival times two times longer than those of mice infected with wild-type or rescued virus. Thus, the DUB activity is important for PrV replication in vitro and for neuroinvasion in mice. 相似文献

The incorporation of tegument proteins into the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) virion during virion assembly is thought to be a complex, multistage process occurring via numerous interactions between the tegument and the capsid, within the tegument, and between the tegument and the envelope. Here, we set out to examine if the direct interaction between two essential tegument proteins VP1/2 and VP16 is required for connecting the inner tegument with the outer tegument. By using glutathione S-transferase (GST) pulldowns, we identified an essential role of lysine 343 in VP16, mutation of which to a neutral amino acid abrogated the interaction between VP1/2 and VP16. When the K343A substitution was inserted into the gene encoding VP16 (UL48) of the viral genome, HSV-1 replicated successfully although its growth was delayed, and final titers were reduced compared to titers of wild-type virus. Surprisingly, the mutated VP16 was incorporated into virions at levels similar to those of wild-type VP16. However, the analysis of VP16 on cytoplasmic capsids by fluorescence microscopy showed that VP16 associated with cytoplasmic capsids less efficiently when the VP16-VP1/2 interaction was inhibited. This implies that the direct interaction between VP1/2 and VP16 is important for the efficiency/timing of viral assembly but is not essential for HSV-1 replication in cell culture. These data also support the notion that the incorporation of tegument proteins into the herpesviruses is a very complex process with significant redundancy. 相似文献

Examination of the three-dimensional structure of intact herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) virions had revealed that the icosahedrally symmetrical interaction between the tegument and capsid involves the pentons but not the hexons (Z. H. Zhou, D. H. Chen, J. Jakana, F. J. Rixon, and W. Chiu, J. Virol. 73:3210-3218, 1999). To account for this, we postulated that the presence of the small capsid protein, VP26, on top of the hexons was masking potential binding sites and preventing tegument attachment. We have now tested this hypothesis by determining the structure of virions lacking VP26. Apart from the obvious absence of VP26 from the capsids, the structures of the VP26 minus and wild-type virions were essentially identical. Notably, they showed the same tegument attachment patterns, thereby demonstrating that VP26 is not responsible for the divergent tegument binding properties of pentons and hexons. 相似文献

Clonorchis sinensis fatty acid-binding protein (CsFABP) belongs to a multigene family of lipid-binding proteins and is considered to be a promising vaccine candidate for human clonorchiasis. In this study, binding characteristics of CsFABP have been examined for the first time. The recombinant CsFABP (rCsFABP) was found to bind 11-(dansylamino) undecanoic acid (DAUDA), causing a blue shift in the fluorescence emission from 543 to 531 nm with an excitation wavelength of 345 nm and a substantial increase in fluorescence intensity. Fluorimetric titration of rCsFABP with DAUDA exhibited an apparent dissociation constant (K (d)) of 1.58 ± 0.14 μM. In the competitive experiment, the rCsFABP efficiently bound saturated C(10)-C(18) fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid and linoleic acid), and the latter presented the higher affinity. Furthermore, quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting analysis revealed that CsFABP mRNA and protein were differentially expressed throughout the developmental cycle stages of the parasite, which occur in the definitive host (metacercariae, adult worms, and eggs). In addition, immunolocalization assay showed that CsFABP was localized on the vitelline gland, tegument, intestine, seminal vesicle, eggs in uterus, ovary, and testicle of C. sinensis adult worm, as well as on the vitelline gland of metacercaria. Intriguingly, the surface tissue of the bile duct where C. sinensis resided in the infected Sprague-Dawley rat was also strongly labeled, implying that CsFABP may possibly mediate direct interactions with host cells as a component of excretory/secretory products. 相似文献

The human cytomegalovirus UL26 open reading frame encodes proteins of 21 and 27 kDa that result from the use of two different in-frame initiation codons. The UL26 protein is a constituent of the virion and thus is delivered to cells upon viral entry. We have characterized a mutant of human cytomegalovirus in which the UL26 open reading frame has been deleted. The UL26 deletion mutant has a profound growth defect, the magnitude of which is dependent on the multiplicity of infection. Two very early defects were discovered. First, even though they were present in normal amounts within mutant virions, the UL99-coded pp28 and UL83-coded pp65 tegument proteins were present in reduced amounts at the earliest times assayed within newly infected cells; second, there was a delay in immediate-early mRNA and protein accumulation. Further analysis revealed that although wild-type levels of the pp28 tegument protein were present in UL26 deletion mutant virions, the protein was hypophosphorylated. We conclude that the UL26 protein influences the normal phosphorylation of at least pp28 in virions and possibly additional tegument proteins. We propose that the hypophosphorylation of tegument proteins causes their destabilization within newly infected cells, perhaps disrupting the normal detegumentation process and leading to a delay in the onset of immediate-early gene expression. 相似文献

The Schistosoma juponicum 26 kDa glutathione S‐transferase (sj26GST) consists of the N‐terminal domain (N‐domain), containing three alpha‐helices (named H1‐H3) and four anti‐parallel beta‐strands (S1‐S4), and the C‐terminal domain (C‐domain), comprising five alpha‐helices (named H4‐H8). In present work, molecular dynamics simulations and fluorescence spectroscopic were used to gain insights into the unfolding process of sj26GST. The molecular dynamics simulations on sj26GST subunit both in water and in 8 M urea were carried out at 300 K, 400 K and 500 K, respectively. Spectroscopic measurements were employed to monitor structural changes. Molecular dynamics simulations of sj26GST subunit induced by urea and temperature showed that the initial unfolding step of sj26GST both in water and urea occurred on N‐domain, involving the disruption of helices H2, H3 and strands S3 and S4, whereas H6 was the last region exposed to solution and was the last helix to unfold. Moreover, simulations analyses combining with fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra indicated that N‐domain could not fold independent, suggesting that correct folding of N‐domain depended on its interactions with C‐domain. We further proposed that the folding of GSTs could begin with the hydrophobic collapse of C‐domain whose H4, H5, H6 and H7 could move close to each other and form a hydrophobic core, especially H6 wrapped in the hydrophobic center and beginning spontaneous formation of the helix. S3, S4, H3, and H2 could form in the wake of the interaction between C‐domain and N‐domain. The paper can offer insights into the molecular mechanism of GSTs unfolding. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The protein components of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) virion have been well established by proteomic methods, and at least 39 structural proteins are currently known. However, several details of the virus structure and assembly remain controversial, including the role of one of the major structural proteins, VP26. In this study, Triton X-100 was used in combination with various concentrations of NaCl to separate intact WSSV virions into distinct fractions such that each fraction contained envelope and tegument proteins, tegument and nucleocapsid proteins, or nucleocapsid proteins only. From the protein profiles and Western blotting results, VP26, VP36A, VP39A, and VP95 were all identified as tegument proteins distinct from the envelope proteins (VP19, VP28, VP31, VP36B, VP38A, VP51B, VP53A) and nucleocapsid proteins (VP664, VP51C, VP60B, VP15). We also found that VP15 dissociated from the nucleocapsid at high salt concentrations, even though DNA was still present. These results were confirmed by CsCl isopycnic centrifugation followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography-nanoelectrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry, by a trypsin sensitivity assay, and by an immunogold assay. Finally, we propose an assembly process for the WSSV virion. 相似文献
