Precursor administration experiments with 2H-labeled 6-oxocampestanol, 6-deoxocastasterone and 6alpha-hydroxycastasterone in cultured cells of Catharanthus roseus were performed and the metabolites were analyzed by GC-MS. [2H6]Cathasterone was identified as a metabolite of [2H6]6-oxocampestanol, whereas [2H6]6alpha-hydroxycastasterone and [2H6]castasterone were identified as metabolites of [2H6]6-deoxocastasterone, and [2H6]castasterone was identified as a metabolite of [2H6]6alpha-hydroxycastasterone, indicating that 6-deoxocastasterone is converted to castasterone via 6alpha-hydroxycastasterone. In addition, 6-deoxocathasterone, a putative biosynthetic intermediate in the late C6-oxidation pathway, was identified as an endogenous brassinosteroid. These studies provide further evidence supporting our proposed biosynthetic pathways for brassinolide. 相似文献

A new protein was cloned and identified as the sixth subunit of Choristoneura fumiferana origin recognition complex (CfORC6). The newly identified 43 kDa protein CfORC6 is much bigger than DmORC6 (25.7 kDa) and HsORC6 (28.1 kDa), though itos 23.85% identical to DmORC6 and 23.81% identical to HsORC6. Although the molecular weight of CfORC6 is close to ScORc6 (50 kDa), CfORC6 is only 14.03% identical to ScORC6. By alignment, it was found that the N-terminal of CfORC6 has about 30% identities with other ORC6s, but about 100aa of C-terminal of CfORC6 has no identity with other ORC6s. Like ScORC6, CfORC6 has many potential phosphorylation sites, (S/T)PXK. Like DmORC6, CfORC6 has leucine-rich region in the relevant site. Northern Blot showed that CfORC6 mRNA is about 2,000nt. Southern Blot confirmed that there is one copy of CfORC6 gene in spruce budworm genome. Western blot showed that infection of Cf124T cells with CfMNPV didnot affect the expression levels of CfORC6, at least up to 26 hr post infection. 相似文献

The beta-D-galactosidase from porcine liver induced regiospecific transglycosylation of beta-D-galactose from beta-D-Gal-OC6H4NO2-o to OH-6 of, respectively, p-nitrophenyl glycoside acceptors of Gal, GlcNAc and GalNAc to afford beta-Gal-(1-->6)-alpha-Gal-OC6H4NO2-p, beta-Gal-(1--> 6)-beta-Gal-OC6H4NO2-p, beta-Gal-(1-->6)-alpha-GalNAc-OC6H4NO2-p, beta-Gal-(1-->6)-beta-GalNAc-OC6H4NO2-p, beta-Gal-(1-->6)-alpha-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p, and beta-Gal-(1-->6)-beta-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p. The enzyme showed much higher transglycosylation activity for the alpha-glycoside acceptors than the corresponding beta-glycoside acceptors. The regioselectivity of the beta-D-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans ATCC 31382 greatly depended on the nature of the acceptor. When alpha-D-GalNAc-OC6H4NO2-p and alpha-D-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p were used as acceptors, the enzyme showed high potency for regioselective synthesis of beta-Gal-(1-->3)-alpha-GalNAc-OC6H4NO2-p and beta-Gal-(1-->3)-alpha-GlcNAc-OC6H4NO2-p in high respective yields of 75.9 and 79.3% based on the acceptors added. However, replacement of beta-D-Gal-OC6H4NO2-p by beta-D-GalNAc-OC6H4NO2-p did change the direction of galactosylation. The enzyme formed regioselectively beta-Gal-(1-->6)-beta-Gal-OC6H4NO2-p with (beta-Gal-1-->(6-beta-Gal-1-->)n6-beta-Gal-OC6H4NO2-p, n = 1-4). No beta-(1-->3)-linked product was detected during the reaction. Use of the two readily available beta-D-galactosidases facilitates the preparation of (1-->3)- and (1-->6)-linked disaccharide glycosides of beta-D-Gal-GalNAc and beta-D-Gal-GlcNAc. 相似文献

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a T-cell-tropic betaherpesvirus. HHV-6 can be classified into two variants, HHV-6 variant A (HHV-6A) and HHV-6B, based on genetic, antigenic, and cell tropisms, although the homology of their entire genomic sequences is nearly 90%. The HHV-6A glycoprotein complex gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2 is a viral ligand that binds to the cellular receptor human CD46. Because gH has 94.3% amino acid identity between the variants, here we examined whether gH from one variant could complement its loss in the other. Recently, we successfully reconstituted HHV-6A from its cloned genome in a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) (rHHV-6ABAC). Using this system, we constructed HHV-6ABAC DNA containing the HHV-6B gH (BgH) gene instead of the HHV-6A gH (AgH) gene in Escherichia coli. Recombinant HHV-6ABAC expressing BgH (rHHV-6ABAC-BgH) was successfully reconstituted. In addition, a monoclonal antibody that blocks HHV-6B but not HHV-6A infection neutralized rHHV-6ABAC-BgH but not rHHV-6ABAC. These results indicate that HHV-6B gH can complement the function of HHV-6A gH in the viral infectious cycle. 相似文献

Six phages (ΦCP6-1 to ΦCP6-6) that are commonly found in the phytosphere of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris var. Amethyst) were investigated, and their relative impacts on their host (Serratia liquefaciens CP6) were compared. There were fundamental differences between the two most abundant predators of CP6 (ΦCP6-1 and ΦCP6-4). Like ΦCP6-2 and ΦCP6-5, ΦCP6-1 belonged to the family Siphoviridae, while ΦCP6-4 exhibited the morphology of the family Podoviridae. The other phages were members of the family Myoviridae. DNA-DNA cross-hybridization revealed that ΦCP6-1 and ΦCP6-4 had little common DNA, although all of the other phages exhibited some genetic similarity. Like ΦCP6-2, ΦCP6-3, and ΦCP6-5, ΦCP6-1 was capable of forming a lysogenic association with its host, while ΦCP6-4 and ΦCP6-6 appeared to be entirely virulent. Single-step growth curve experiments revealed that ΦCP6-4 had a much shorter latent period and a smaller burst size than ΦCP6-1. Also, ΦCP6-1 could transduce a number of host chromosomal markers with transfer frequencies of 2.9 × 10−9 to 3.9 × 10−7, whereas ΦCP6-4 could not transduce S. liquefaciens CP6 genes. When viewed in the context of the strikingly different temporal niches of these phages, our data provide an insight into how bacteriophage interactions with their hosts might reflect the natural ecology of bacteriophages. Our data also illustrate how the potential for gene transfer changes over time in an environment that supports several different phages. 相似文献

Three prenylated rotenoids, elliptol, 12-deoxo-12alpha-methoxyelliptone and 6-methoxy-6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin were isolated from the twigs of Millettia duchesnei, together with the known compounds, 6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin, 6-hydroxy-6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin, 6-oxo-6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin, elliptone, 12a-hydroxyelliptone and eriodictyol. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral data and comparison with information reported in the literature and with authentic specimens for some known compounds. The full NMR data of 6-oxo-6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin and 6-hydroxy-6a,12a-dehydrodeguelin are reported here for the first time. 相似文献

The chiral specificities of bovine striatal tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) (unphosphorylated and phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase) and rat liver phenylalanine hydroxylase (PH) were examined at physiological pH using the pure C6 stereoisomers of 6-methyl- and 6-propyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin (6-methyl-PH4 and 6-propyl-PH4) and (6R)- and (6S)-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Both PH and phosphorylated TH have substantially higher Vmax values with the unnatural (6R)-propyl-PH4 than the natural (6S)-propyl-PH4 (approximately 6- and 11-fold, respectively). However, the Km's are also higher such that Vmax/Km is almost unaffected by C6 chirality. Unphosphorylated TH has equal Km values for both isomers of 6-propyl-PH4, but has about a 6 times greater Vmax with the unnatural isomer, making it the fastest cofactor yet for this form of the enzyme. With the shorter 6-methyl group, chiral differences are still recognized by phosphorylated TH but hardly at all by PH. Inhibition of both PH and TH by amino acid substrate which occurs with (6R)-BH4 as cofactor is also observed with (6S)-propyl-PH4 but not with (6S)-BH4, (6R)-propyl-PH4, or (6R)- or (6R,S)-methyl-PH4. The Km for (6S)-BH4 with phosphorylated TH is nearly 3 times higher than with (6R)-BH4, but Vmax is unchanged. With unphosphorylated TH, (6S)-BH4 produces very low decelerating rates, which was shown not to be due to irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. The Km for (6R)-BH4 with either hydroxylase is 10 times higher than for the equivalently configured (6S)-propyl-PH4. Comparison of these two cofactors reveals that the 1' and 2' side-chain hydroxyl groups of the natural cofactor promote different regulatory functions in PH than in TH. 相似文献

Methyl 6-O-(6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-2,3,4-tri- O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (5) was formed with high stereoselectivity when the condensation of methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl (1) with 6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl chloride in ether was promoted with silver perchlorate in the presence of 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine. O-Deacetylation of 5, followed by treatment of the formed 6, containing only HO-6' unsubstituted, with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) or dimethylaminosulfur trifluoride (methyl DAST) gave the per-O-benzyl derivative (9) of methyl 6'-deoxy-6'-fluoro-alpha-isomaltoside. Compound 9 was also obtained by condensation of 1 with 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-6-deoxy-6-fluoro-beta-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride (4) in the presence of silver perchlorate and anhydrous stannous chloride. The fully benzylated methyl alpha-glycoside (15) of 6-deoxy-6-fluoro-isomaltotriose, was obtained by condensation of 6 with 4. Hydrogenolysis of 9 and 15 gave the methyl alpha-glycosides of isomaltose and isomaltotriose fluorinated at C-6 of their (nonreducing) D-glucosyl group. Fluoride-ion displacements involving DAST and methyl DAST gave practically identical results, but mixtures arising from reactions involving the latter reagent were lighter-colored and easier to resolve by chromatography. The isolation of methyl alpha-glycosides of 6'-deoxy-6'-fluorogentiobiose and of 6'-O-(6-deoxy-6-fluoro-beta-D-glucopyranosyl) isomaltose is also described. 相似文献

Protein tyrosine kinase 6 (PTK6) is an intracellular tyrosine kinase that is nuclear in epithelial cells of the normal prostate, but cytoplasmic in prostate tumors and in the PC3 prostate tumor cell line. The impact of altered PTK6 intracellular localization in prostate tumor cells has not been extensively explored. Knockdown of endogenous cytoplasmic PTK6 resulted in decreased PC3 cell proliferation and colony formation, suggesting that cytoplasmic PTK6 stimulates oncogenic pathways. In contrast, reintroduction of PTK6 into nuclei of PC3 cells had a negative effect on growth. Enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of the PTK6 substrate Sam68 was detected in cells expressing nuclear-targeted PTK6. We found that mechanisms regulating nuclear localization of PTK6 are intact in PC3 cells. Transiently overexpressed PTK6 readily enters the nucleus. Ectopic expression of ALT-PTK6, a catalytically inactive splice variant of PTK6, did not affect localization of endogenous PTK6 in PC3 cells. Using leptomycin B, we confirmed that cytoplasmic localization of endogenous PTK6 is not due to Crm-1/exportin-1 mediated nuclear export. In addition, overexpression of the PTK6 nuclear substrate Sam68 is not sufficient to bring PTK6 into the nucleus. While exogenous PTK6 was readily detected in the nucleus when transiently expressed at high levels, low-level expression of inducible wild type PTK6 in stable cell lines resulted in its cytoplasmic retention. Our results suggest that retention of PTK6 in the cytoplasm of prostate cancer cells disrupts its ability to regulate nuclear substrates and leads to aberrant growth. In prostate cancer, restoring PTK6 nuclear localization may have therapeutic advantages.Key words: PTK6, BRK, Sik, SAM68, prostate cancer, nuclear localization, tyrosine kinase 相似文献

Cultured suspension cells of Eucalyptus perriniana converted exogenously administered alpha-tocopherol into alpha-tocopheryl 6-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside (46mug/gfr. wt of cells) and two biotransformation products: alpha-tocopheryl 6-O-(6-O-beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-beta-d-glucopyranoside (19mug/gfr. wt of cells) and alpha-tocopheryl 6-O-(6-O-alpha-l-rhamnopyranosyl)-beta-d-glucopyranoside (6mug/gfr. wt of cells). On the other hand, two other compounds, i.e., delta-tocopheryl 6-O-(6-O-beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-beta-d-glucopyranoside (27mug/g fr. wt of cells) and delta-tocopheryl 6-O-(6-O-alpha-l-rhamnopyranosyl)-beta-d-glucopyranoside (12mug/g fr. wt of cells), together with delta-tocopheryl 6-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside (63mug/g fr. wt of cells) were isolated from suspension cells following the administration of delta-tocopherol. 相似文献

We have examined the effect of a naphthylquinoline triplex-binding ligand on the formation of intermolecular triplexes on DNA fragments containing the target sites A6G6xC6T6 and G6A6xT6C6. The ligand enhances the binding of T6C2, but not T2C6, to A6G6xC6T6 suggesting that it has a greater effect on TxAT than C+xGC triplets. The complex with T6C2 is only stable below pH 6.0, confirming the requirement for protonation of the third strand cytosines. Antiparallel triplexes with GT-containing oligonucleotides are also stabilised by the ligand. The complex between G5T5 and A6G6xC6T6 is stabilised by lower ligand concentrations than that between T5G5 and G6A6xC6T6. The ligand does not promote the interaction with GT-containing oligonucleotides which have been designed to bind in a parallel orientation. Although the formation of antiparallel triplexes is pH independent, we find that the ligand has a greater stabilising effect at lower pH, suggesting that the active species is protonated. The ligand does not promote the binding of antiparallel GA-containing oligonucleotides at pH 7.5 but induces the interaction between A5G5 and G6A6xT6C6 at pH 5.5. Ethidium bromide does not promote the formation of any of these triplexes and destabilises the interaction of acridine-linked pyrimidine-containing third strands with these target sites. 相似文献

Human interleukin-6 (hIL-6) is a pleiotropic mediator of activation and proliferation across a large number of different cell types. Human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) has been associated with classical and AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). HHV-8 encodes viral IL-6 (vIL-6), a functional homolog of human interleukin-6, that promotes the growth of KS and of some lymphoma cells. Signaling induced by human IL-6 requires recruitment of the glycoprotein gp130, which acts as the signal transducing chain, and of IL-6Ralpha, which is necessary for cognate recognition and high affinity receptor complex formation. In contrast, the formation of a functional complex between vIL-6 and gp130 does not require the presence of IL-6Ralpha. The physico-chemical properties of vIL-6 have been analyzed and compared to those of hIL-6 and of the receptor chains, gp130 and IL-6Ralpha. Interaction sites on vIL-6 involve more hydrophobic residues than those of hIL-6. The electrostatic fields induced by vIL-6 and IL-6Ralpha are repulsive and prevent interaction between vIL-6 and IL-6Ralpha, whereas the electrostatic field induced by hIL-6 steers the complex formation with IL-6Ralpha. Subsequently, electrostatic binding free energy in the vIL-6/IL-6Ralpha complex is destabilizing, whereas it is stabilizing in the complex comprising hIL-6. These properties result from charge reversals between viral and human IL-6, an unusual phenomenon of amino acid substitutions within a homologous protein family. This suggests a selection pressure for vIL-6 to by-pass the IL-6Ralpha control of host defense against virus infection. This selection pressure has yielded the reversal of electrostatic properties of vIL-6 when compared to hIL-6. 相似文献

In this work, we have purified the His-tagged oxygenase (ht-oxygenase) component of Rhodococcus globerulus P6 biphenyl dioxygenase. The alpha or beta subunit of P6 oxygenase was exchanged with the corresponding subunit of Pseudomonas sp. strain LB400 or of Comamonas testosteroni B-356 to create new chimeras that were purified ht-proteins and designated ht-alpha(P6)beta(P6), ht-alpha(P6)beta(LB400), ht-alpha(P6)beta(B-356), ht-alpha(LB400)beta(P6), and ht-alpha(B-356)beta(P6). ht-alpha(P6)beta(P6), ht-alpha(P6)beta(LB400), ht-alpha(P6)beta(B-356) were not expressed active in recombinant Escherichia coli cells carrying P6 bphA1 and bphA2, P6 bphA1 and LB400 bphE, or P6 bphA1 and B-356 bphE because the [2Fe-2S] Rieske cluster of P6 oxygenase alpha subunit was not assembled correctly in these clones. On the other hand ht-alpha(LB400)beta(P6) and ht-alpha(B-356)beta(P6) were produced active in E. coli. Furthermore, active purified ht-alpha(P6)beta(P6), ht-alpha(P6)beta(LB400), ht-alpha(P6)beta(B-356), showing typical spectra for Rieske-type proteins, were obtained from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 carrying constructions derived from the new shuttle E. coli-Pseudomonas vector pEP31, designed to produce ht-proteins in Pseudomonas. Analysis of the substrate selectivity pattern of these purified chimeras toward selected chlorobiphenyls indicate that the catalytic capacity of hybrid enzymes comprised of an alpha and a beta subunit recruited from distinct biphenyl dioxygenases is not determined specifically by either one of the two subunits. 相似文献

Thyroid hormones, throxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) which are known to activate glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity in vivo act as substrate inhibitors of G6PD in vitro. T4 competitively inhibits NADP in human erythrocyte G6PD variants G6PDA, G6PDB and G6PDA- with inhibition constants of 2.40 +/- 0.90 X 10(-6), 3.44 +/- 0.63 X 10(-6) and 6.53 +/- 0.60 X 10(-6) mol/l, respectively. The inhibition is, however, noncompetitive with respect to G6P in the three variants. T3 also has similar inhibition pattern to T4 with inhibition constants for NADP of 1.9 +/- 0.08 X 10(-5) and 1.28 +/- 0.17 X 10(-5) mol/l for G6PDB and G6PDA-, respectively. cAMP on the other hand inhibits G6P competitively with inhibition constants 1.50 +/- 0.22 X 10(-4), 1.06 +/- 0.24 X 10(-4) and 1.76 +/- 0.14 X 10(-4) mol/l for G6PDB, G6PDA and G6PDA-, respectively. There are significant differences in the inhibition effects of T4 and cAMP with respect to NADP as substrates for the normal enzyme G6PDA or G6PDB and the deficient enzyme G6PDA- when NADP is the substrate, the latter being much more inhibited. The activation effect of thyroid hormones in vivo may therefore not be a direct result of thyroid hormone binding to the G6PD enzyme nor mediated through the action of cAMP but plausibly be through complexation of inhibitory trace metal ions by the thyroid hormones T4 and T3. 相似文献

We have constructed several hybrid human interleukin-6 (IL-6) variants in which the carboxyl-terminus, which includes a receptor binding site of IL-6 has been replaced with the C-terminus of various proteins homologous to human IL-6. IL-6 hybrids with the C-terminus of human growth hormone and human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor maintain part of the biological activity of human IL-6. Replacing the C-terminus of human IL-6 with the C-terminus of mouse and rat IL-6 resulted in a normal or increased activity on a mouse cell line; however, this gave a low (to 200-fold less) activity on a human cell line compared to wild-type human IL-6. We therefore conclude that the C-terminus of IL-6 plays an important role in the species specificity of IL-6. 相似文献

Pullulan, with all of the primary hydroxyl groups modified, is an excellent substrate for defining the effect of degree of substitution on biodegradability because of the uniform distribution of substituents on the polysaccharide. 6-Chloro-6-deoxypullulan and 3,6-anhydropullulan are highly resistant to hydrolysis by the four different types of pullulanase. 6-Azido-6-deoxypullulan is resistant to three types but susceptible to hydrolysis by the fourth, isopullulanase. Neopullulanase is strongly inhibited by 6-chloro-6-deoxypullulan and 6-azido-6-deoxypullulan, the other pullulanases much less so. 相似文献

Ribosomal S6 kinase (S6K1), through phosphorylation of the 40 S ribosomal protein S6 and regulation of 5'-terminal oligopyrimidine tract mRNAs, is an important regulator of cellular translational capacity. S6K1 has also been implicated in regulation of cell size. We have recently identified S6K2, a homolog of S6K1, which phosphorylates S6 in vitro and is regulated by the phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K) and mammalian target of rapamycin pathways in vivo. Here, we characterize S6K2 regulation by PI3-K signaling intermediates and compare its regulation to that of S6K1. We report that S6K2 is activated similarly to S6K1 by the PI3-K effectors phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1, Cdc42, Rac, and protein kinase Czeta but that S6K2 is more sensitive to basal activation by myristoylated protein kinase Czeta than is S6K1. The C-terminal sequence of S6K2 is divergent from that of S6K1. We find that the S6K2 C terminus plays a greater role in S6K2 regulation than does the S6K1 C terminus by functioning as a potent inhibitor of activation by various agonists. Removal of the S6K2 C terminus results in an enzyme that is hypersensitive to agonist-dependent activation. These data suggest that S6K1 and S6K2 are similarly activated by PI3-K effectors but that sequences unique to S6K2 contribute to stronger inhibition of its kinase activity. Understanding the regulation of the two S6K homologs may provide insight into the physiological roles of these kinases. 相似文献
