整合素αvβ3是一种能特异性识别RGD序列的膜受体蛋白,其与含RGD(Arg-Gly-Asp)模体的蛋白质结合的特异性在肿瘤细胞的粘附、迁移、浸润及肿瘤血管新生中起重要作用.由于整合素αvβ3在多种肿瘤细胞表面高表达而在正常细胞中低表达或不表达,因此其成为肿瘤治疗的理想靶点.肿瘤新生血管为肿瘤的生长提供营养,因此近年来抑制肿瘤血管新生也成为肿瘤治疗的重要途径.有研究显示,几种RGD毒素蛋白不但以整合素αvβ3为靶点靶向结合到肿瘤部位从而具有直接抗肿瘤细胞增殖、黏附、迁移及浸润功能,而且它们还具有抗肿瘤血管新生的作用,因此RGD毒素蛋白可从上述两方面抑制肿瘤生长与转移.本文就整合素αvβ3为靶向的RGD配体结构特点及其在肿瘤治疗中的靶向治疗和抗血管新生应用及前景加以综述. 相似文献

病原真菌在侵入植物细胞过程中,除了分泌化学物质外还通过物理挤压细胞产生力学作用.用压应力作为力学信号,研究了局部力学刺激对黄瓜系统抗病性的诱导.结果表明,力学刺激可以诱导黄瓜系统抗病性的产生.当细胞壁与质膜间的黏附被Arg-Gly-Asp(RGD)阻断后,力学刺激对黄瓜系统抗病性的诱导几乎完全被减除.通过薄层色谱和液相色谱分析,发现力学刺激可以使植保素含量明显增加.这表明黄瓜植保素的积累可能是力学刺激诱导其产生抗性的原因之一.而细胞壁与质膜间的黏附被RGD阻断后,力学刺激只能诱导植保素的部分积累.即力学刺激对植保素积累的诱导依赖于细胞膜与细胞壁间的黏附. 相似文献

Here we report the identification of phospholipase Dalpha as a cardosin A-binding protein. The interaction was confirmed by coimmunoprecipitation studies and pull-down assays. To investigate the structural and molecular determinants involved in the interaction, pull-down assays with cardosin A and various glutathione S-transferase-fused phospholipase Dalpha constructs were performed. Results revealed that the C2 domain of phospholipase Dalpha contains the cardosin A-binding activity. Further assays with mutated recombinant forms of cardosin A showed that the RGD motif as well as the unprecedented KGE motif, which is structurally and charge-wise very similar to RGD, are indispensable for the interaction. Taken together our results indicate that the C2 domain of plant phospholipase Dalpha can act as a cardosin A-binding domain and suggest that plant C2 domains may have an additional role as RGD/KGE-recognition domains. 相似文献

Plant cells cultured in bioreactors are strongly influenced by mechanical forces. However, the molecular mechanism of plant cell mechanoreception has maintained unclear. In animal cells, the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif can be found in proteins of the extracellular matrix. Integrins link the intracellular cytoskeleton of cells with the extracellular matrix by recognizing this RGD motif. Integrin has been demonstrated to function as an apparatus not only for adhesion but also for mechanotransduction. In plant cells, the molecules that mediate the structural continuity between wall and membrane are unknown. Here, we found that synthetic RGD peptide could dramatically reduce the level of phosphorylation of MAPK-like cascades that are activated by shear stress and reduce the alkalinization response, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and accumulation of phenolics by Taxus cuspidata cells during shear stress. These results implicate that a RGD recognition system may exist in Taxus cells and play an important role in signal transduction of shear stress. Although the Arabidopsis genome database shows that the plant seems to lack a homologue of animal integrin, plant cells may use other RGD-binding proteins to recognize the RGD motif. The correlative mechanism is discussed. 相似文献

Cardosin A is an abundant aspartic proteinase from pistils of Cynara cardunculus L. whose milk-clotting activity has been exploited for the manufacture of cheese. Here we report the cloning and characterization of cardosin A cDNA. The deduced amino acid sequence contains the conserved features of plant aspartic proteinases, including the plant-specific insertion (PSI), and revealed the presence of an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif, which is known to function in cell surface receptor binding by extracellular proteins. Cardosin A mRNA was detected predominantly in young flower buds but not in mature or senescent pistils, suggesting that its expression is likely to be developmentally regulated. Procardosin A, the single chain precursor, was found associated with microsomal membranes of flower buds, whereas the active two-chain enzyme generated upon removal of PSI is soluble. This result implies a role for PSI in promoting the association of plant aspartic proteinase precursors to cell membranes. To get further insights about cardosin A, the functional relevance of the RGD motif was also investigated. A 100-kDa protein that interacts specifically with the RGD sequence was isolated from octyl glucoside pollen extracts by affinity chromatography on cardosin A-Sepharose. This result suggests that the 100-kDa protein is a cardosin A receptor and indicates that the interaction between these two proteins is apparently mediated through RGD recognition. It is possible therefore that cardosin A may have a role in adhesion-mediated proteolytic mechanisms involved in pollen recognition and growth. 相似文献

An RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) motif in coxsackievirus A9 has been implicated in internalization through an interaction with the integrin alpha v beta 3. We have produced a number of virus mutants, lacking the motif, which have a small-plaque phenotype in LLC-Mk2 and A-Vero cells and are phenotypically normal in RD cells. Substitution of flanking amino acids also affected plaque size. The results suggest that interaction between the RGD motif and alpha v beta 3 is not critical for virus viability in the cell lines tested and therefore that alternative regions of the CAV-9 capsid are involved in internalization. 相似文献

A fundamental problem of plant science is to understand the biochemical basis of plant/pathogen interactions. The foliar disease tan spot of wheat (Triticum aestivum), caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis, involves Ptr ToxA, a proteinaceous host-selective toxin that causes host cell death. The fungal gene ToxA encodes a 17.2-kD pre-pro-protein that is processed to produce the mature 13.2-kD toxin. Amino acids 140 to 142 of the pre-pro-protein form an arginyl-glycyl-aspartic (RGD) sequence, a motif involved in the binding of some animal proteins and pathogens to transmembrane receptor proteins called integrins. Integrin-like proteins have been identified in plants recently, but their role in plant biology is unclear. Our model for Ptr ToxA action predicts that toxin interacts with a putative host receptor through the RGD motif. Mutant clones of a ToxA cDNA, created by polymerase chain reaction such that the RGD in the pro-toxin was changed to arginyl-alanyl-aspartic or to arginyl-glycyl-glutamic, were expressed in Escherichia coli. Extracts containing mutated forms of toxin failed to cause host cell death, but extracts from E. coli expressing both a wild-type pro-protein cDNA and a control mutation away from RGD were active in cell death development. In competition experiments, 2 mM RGD tripeptide reduced the level of electrolyte leakage from wheat leaves by 63% when co-infiltrated with purified Ptr ToxA (15 microg mL(-1)) obtained from the fungus, but the control peptide arginyl-glycyl-glutamyl-serine provided no protection. These experiments indicate that the RGD motif of Ptr ToxA is involved with toxin action, possibly by interacting with a putative integrin-like receptor in the host. 相似文献

Interactions between plant cell walls and plasma membranes are essential for cells to function properly, but the molecules that mediate the structural continuity between wall and membrane are unknown. Some of these interactions, which are visualized upon tissue plasmolysis in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), are disrupted by the RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) tripeptide sequence, a characteristic cell adhesion motif in mammals. In planta induced-O (IPI-O) is an RGD-containing protein from the plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans that can disrupt cell wall-plasma membrane adhesions through its RGD motif. To identify peptide sequences that specifically bind the RGD motif of the IPI-O protein and potentially play a role in receptor recognition, we screened a heptamer peptide library displayed in a filamentous phage and selected two peptides acting as inhibitors of the plasma membrane RGD-binding activity of Arabidopsis. Moreover, the two peptides also disrupted cell wall-plasma membrane adhesions. Sequence comparison of the RGD-binding peptides with the Arabidopsis proteome revealed 12 proteins containing amino acid sequences in their extracellular domains common with the two RGD-binding peptides. Eight belong to the receptor-like kinase family, four of which have a lectin-like extracellular domain. The lectin domain of one of these, At5g60300, recognized the RGD motif both in peptides and proteins. These results imply that lectin receptor kinases are involved in protein-protein interactions with RGD-containing proteins as potential ligands, and play a structural and signaling role at the plant cell surfaces. 相似文献

The human pathogen Helicobacter pylori that may cause different gastric diseases exploits integrins for infection of gastric cells. The H. pylori protein CagL present on the outer region of the type IV secretion pilus contains an RGD sequence (-Arg-Gly-Asp-) that enables binding to cells presenting integrins α5β1 and αVβ3. This interaction can be inhibited with conformationally designed cyclic RGD peptides derived from the CagL epitope -Ala-Leu-Arg-Gly-Asp-Leu-Ala-. The inhibition of the CagL-αVβ3 interaction by different RGD peptides strongly suggests the importance of the RGD motif for CagL binding. CagL point mutants (RAD, RGA) show decreased affinity to integrin αVβ3. Furthermore, structure-activity relationship studies with cyclic RGD peptides in a spatial screening approach show the distinct influence of the three-dimensional arrangement of RGD motif on the ability to interfere with this interaction. Resulting from these studies, similar structural requirements for the CagL epitope as previously suggested for other ligands of integrin αVβ3 are proposed. 相似文献

Adenovirus (Ad) vectors are widely used for gene delivery in vitro and in vivo. A solid understanding of the biology of this virus is imperative for the development of novel, effective, and safe vectors. For the group C adenovirus serotypes 2 and 5 that use CAR as a primary attachment receptor, it is known that the penton base RGD motifs interact with cellular integrins and that this interaction promotes virus internalization. However, the RGD motif's impact on the efficiency of postinternalization steps, such as the escape of the virus particle from the endosome, is less defined. Furthermore, the role of penton-integrin interactions remains unknown for new vectors possessing group B Ad fiber knobs that use CD46 as a primary virus attachment receptor. In this study, we used vectors with the RGD motif deleted that contained Ad5 and B-group Ad35 fiber knobs and long fiber shafts and studied the role of RGD-integrin interactions in virus internalization and endosome escape. The deletion of the RGD motif in the penton base did not affect virus attachment, regardless of the type of cellular receptor used for attachment. RGD motif deletion, however, significantly reduced the rate of virus internalization for both the Ad5 and Ad35 fiber knob-containing vectors. This study also demonstrates the role of penton RGD motifs in facilitating the endosome escape step of virus infection and indicates that penton-integrin interactions are involved in internalization of capsid-chimeric CD46-interacting Ads with long fiber shafts. 相似文献

Plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion is required for expression of plant defense responses during fungal penetration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fungal pathogens almost invariably trigger cell wall-associated defense responses, such as extracellular hydrogen peroxide generation and callose deposition, when they attempt to penetrate either resistant or susceptible plant cells. In the current study, we provide evidence that the expression of these defenses is dependent on adhesion between the plant cell wall and the plasma membrane. Peptides containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif, which interfered with plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion as shown by the loss of the thin plasma membrane-cell wall connections known as Hechtian strands, reduced the expression of cell wall-associated defense responses during the penetration of nonhost plants by biotrophic fungal pathogens. This reduction was associated with increased fungal penetration efficiency. Neither of these effects was seen after treatment with similar peptides lacking the RGD motif. Disruption of plant microfilaments had no effect on Hechtian strands but mimicked the effect of RGD peptides on wall defenses, suggesting that the expression of cell wall-associated defenses involves communication between the plant cell wall and the cytosol across the plasma membrane. To visualize the state of the plasma membrane-cell wall interaction during fungal penetration, we observed living cells during sucrose-induced plasmolysis. In interactions that were characterized by the early expression of cell wall-associated defenses, there was no change, or an increase, in plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion under the penetration point as the fungus grew through the plant cell wall. In contrast, for rust fungus interactions with host plants, there was a strong correlation between a lack of cell wall-associated defenses and a localized decrease in plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion under the penetration point. Abolition of this localized decreased adhesion by previous inoculation with a fungus that increased plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion resulted in reduced penetration by the rust fungus and induction of cell wall-associated defenses. These results suggest that rust fungi may induce a decrease in plasma membrane-cell wall adhesion as a means of disrupting the expression of nonspecific defense responses during penetration of host cells. 相似文献

CD23 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein synthesized by hematopoietic cells that has biological activity in both membrane-bound and freely soluble forms, acting via a number of receptors, including integrins. We demonstrate here that soluble CD23 (sCD23) sustains growth of human B cell precursors via an RGD-independent interaction with the alphavbeta5 integrin. The integrin recognizes a tripeptide motif in a small disulfide-bonded loop at the N terminus of the lectin head region of CD23, centered around Arg(172), Lys(173), and Cys(174) (RKC). This RKC motif is present in all forms of sCD23 with cytokine-like activity, and cytokine activity is independent of the lectin head, an "inverse RGD" motif, and the CD21 and IgE binding sites. RKC-containing peptides derived from this region of CD23 bind alphavbeta5 and are biologically active. The binding and activity of these peptides is unaffected by inclusion of a short peptide containing the classic RGD sequence recognized by integrins, and, in far-Western analyses, RKC-containing peptides bind to the beta subunit of the alphavbeta5 integrin. The interaction between alphavbeta5 and sCD23 indicates that integrins deliver to cells important signals initiated by soluble ligands without the requirement for interactions with RGD motifs in their common ligands. This mode of integrin signaling may not be restricted to alphavbeta5. 相似文献
