A cDNA for human interleukin-5 (hIL-5) was created from the hIL-5 gene using site-directed mutagenesis to splice out the introns in vitro. This cDNA was expressed in yeast and baculovirus systems, utilizing in both cases an in-frame fusion to the pre sequence of the alpha-mating-type factor to direct secretion. The highest level of production was achieved from Sf9 cells using a baculovirus vector in serum-containing medium (2.7 mg/l), whereas in serum-free medium ten times less hIL-5 was produced. In the yeast system much lower levels of hIL-5 were produced (12.5 micrograms/l). Recombinant hIL-5 was purified to homogeneity from serum-free baculovirus cultures. The rhIL-5 consisted of a 30-kDa homodimer linked by disulfide bridging. The purified recombinant protein had a specific activity on murine BCL1 cells of 1.5 x 10(4) U/mg, of 3 x 10(5) U/mg in the murine eosinophil differentiation factor assay, and 2.4 x 10(7) U/mg in a human peripheral eosinophil maintenance assay. 相似文献

Rat interleukin-5 (IL-5) cDNA was subcloned from peritoneal cells collected 4 h after intraperitoneal injection of Ascaris suum antigen solution into the immunized rats. Cysteine proteinase-deleted (CPd) rat IL-5 recombinant virus was constructed by inserting rat IL-5 cDNA into CPd virus having a deletion in the cysteine proteinase gene of the silkworm Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus. On infection with the CPd rat IL-5 recombinant virus, the silkworm B. mori larvae produced rat IL-5 as a dimeric form in hemolymph. Recombinant rat IL-5 was purified more than 95.5% by anion-exchange chromatography and hydrophobic chromatography. The purified recombinant rat IL-5 promoted the proliferation of T88-M cells in a concentration-dependent manner, and its effect was inhibited by an anti-murine IL-5 neutralizing polyclonal antibody. When bone marrow cells from normal rats were incubated with recombinant rat IL-5 in medium containing methylcellulose, the colony formation by eosinophilic cells was induced. Furthermore, when rat peritoneal eosinophils were incubated with recombinant rat IL-5, the spontaneous decrease in the eosinophil viability was inhibited in time- and concentration-dependent manners. In addition, the recombinant rat IL-5-induced eosinophil survival was inhibited by an anti-murine IL-5 neutralizing polyclonal antibody. These findings suggest that rat IL-5 acts as B-cell growth factor II (BCGF-II), eosinophil differentiation factor (EDF), and eosinophil survival-enhancing factor. 相似文献

The expression in yeast of a cDNA clone encoding murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) has made possible the purification of large quantities of this recombinant protein. Rabbits immunized with pure recombinant GM-CSF generated antibodies that were shown to be specific for both recombinant GM-CSF and GM-CSF isolated from natural sources. Other lymphokines, including IL 1 beta, IL 2, IL 3, and recombinant human GM-CSF did not react with the antiserum. The antiserum, together with recombinant GM-CSF that had been radiolabeled with 125I to high specific activity, formed the foundation for a rapid, sensitive, and quantitative radioimmunoassay specific for murine GM-CSF. Furthermore, the antiserum was found to inhibit the biologic activities of GM-CSF as measured in both a bone marrow proliferation assay and a colony assay, and thus should prove to be a useful reagent for dissecting the complex growth factor activities involved in murine hematopoiesis. 相似文献

低温脂肪酶在低温条件下仍具有较高活性,在食品添加剂、洗涤添加剂及有机合成等产业具有非常独特的应用前景。从低温菌株中分离低温脂肪酶基因是开发新的低温脂肪酶的有效手段。首先利用油脂同化平板与三丁酸甘油酯-维多利亚蓝平板从冰川土样中筛选分离获得一株具有较高脂肪酶活性的真菌,18S rDNA鉴定其属于青霉属,命名为Penicillium sp.XMZ-9。根据真菌脂肪酶多序列比对获得的保守区,设计简并引物,利用降落PCR与染色体步移的方法从Penicillium sp.XMZ-9中克隆到2个完整的脂肪酶基因,分别记为LipA与LipB。LipA全长1 014 bp,无内含子,编码337个氨基酸。而LipB全长1 232 bp,cDNA长1 122 bp,含有2个内含子,编码373个氨基酸。将两基因的cDNA序列克隆到pET30a(+)载体上,转化大肠杆菌Escherichiacoli BL21(DE3)。经低温诱导表达后,LipA大部分表达为包涵体,包涵体经复性后具有脂肪酶活性,并表现出低温适应性;LipB则大部分表达为可溶性蛋白,Ni-亲和层析柱纯化后,其亦具有低温脂肪酶活性。青霉菌株XMZ-9的获得与低温脂肪酶的克隆表达研究,为研究低温菌株与低温酶的适冷机制提供了宝贵的资源,也为进一步开发利用低温脂肪酶奠定了基础。 相似文献

We studied the effects of murine recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on murine hemopoiesis in methylcellulose culture. The GM-CSF was purified from cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae transfected with a cloned murine GM-CSF cDNA. In cultures of spleen cells from normal mice, only granulocyte-macrophage (GM) colonies were supported by GM-CSF. Blast cell colonies were the predominant type in cultures of spleen cells from 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-treated mice. Dose-response studies revealed that maximal GM and blast cell colony formation is achieved with 100 U/ml GM-CSF. Blast cell colonies revealed variable but high replating efficiencies, and the secondary colonies included multilineage colonies. Serial replating of washed blast cell colonies in cultures with GM-CSF provided evidence for the direct effects of GM-CSF on the proliferation of multipotential blast cells. A combination of GM-CSF and interleukin-3 (IL-3) did not increase the number of blast cell colonies over the level supported by IL-3. This observation indicates that the progenitors for blast cell colonies that responded to GM-CSF are a subpopulation of multipotential progenitors that are supported by IL-3. Cytological studies of colonies derived from GM-CSF and/or IL-3 suggest that the eosinophilopoietic ability of murine GM-CSF is less than that of IL-3. 相似文献

The murine lymphotoxin (LT) gene has been cloned and used to identify cDNA clones in a library prepared from activated murine T cell mRNA. A recombinant murine genomic library was screened with a human lymphotoxin cDNA probe, resulting in the isolation of the entire LT gene. The murine LT gene structure is similar to the human gene, containing three intervening sequences. An activated murine T cell cDNA library was prepared with poly(A)+ RNA isolated 7 hr after concanavalin A stimulation of an L3T4+ interleukin 2-dependent murine T cell clone. Two colonies of the cDNA library that contained inserts that hybridized with the murine LT gene probe were sequenced and were used to construct expression plasmids. The amino acid sequence deduced from the cDNA indicates that murine LT is highly homologous to human LT (74%) and is related to murine tumor necrosis factor (35% homology). The cDNA was transcribed and was translated in vitro, and was expressed in COS-1 cells. This has resulted in the production of LT biological activity. 相似文献

Change in lactate production in Myc-transformed cells precedes apoptosis and can be inhibited by Bcl-2 overexpression 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Interleukin-18 binding protein is a novel glycoprotein that we successfully cloned and expressed. First, murine interleukin-18 binding protein was purified from the sera of mice with endotoxin shock using ligand affinity chromatography. The murine interleukin-18 binding protein cDNA was cloned after RT-PCR using mixed primer pair sequences based on partial murine interleukin-18 binding protein amino acid sequence analysis. Subsequently, human interleukin-18 binding protein cDNA was cloned from cDNA libraries of normal human liver using murine interleukin-18 binding protein cDNA as a probe. Next, we transiently expressed recombinant human and murine interleukin-18 binding proteins in COS-1 cells and purified them from culture supernatants. Both recombinant interleukin-18 binding proteins did not exhibit species specificity and prevented interleukin-18 binding to its receptor. In addition, they inhibited interleukine-18 dependent IFN-gamma production from KG-1 cells effectively. These results suggest that the interleukin-18 binding protein may possess interleukine-18 antagonist activity. 相似文献

We have cloned cDNA encoding the mouse interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor from a murine T cell line, CTLL using human IL-2 receptor cDNA as probe. COS 7 cells transfected with the cDNA expressed the antigen recognized by the monoclonal antibody against the murine IL-2 receptor. The cDNA identified 4 species of mRNA (4.5, 3.5, 2.2 and 1.5 kb) of the mouse IL-2 receptor in CTLL cells. Difference in the length of mRNA seems to be ascribed to the variable length of the 3' untranslated sequence. Total nucleotide sequence (approximately 1400 bp) of this cDNA was determined and compared with the human receptor. The nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the IL-2 receptor are 70% and 60%, respectively, homologous in average between the two species. The comparison has revealed several conserved regions localized to particular exons such as transmembrane and cytoplasmic portions, suggesting that these regions are important for receptor function and its regulation. 相似文献

Alternate splicing of mRNAs encoding human mast cell growth factor and localization of the gene to chromosome 12q22-q24. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

Human mast cell growth factor (MGF) complementary DNAs (cDNAs) were cloned from HeLa cells using the polymerase chain reaction with oligonucleotides corresponding to murine and human MGF sequences. Sequencing of the cloned human MGF polymerase chain reaction products revealed two types of cDNA: a full length form corresponding in size to the murine cDNA, and an alternately spliced clone with a deletion of the sixth exon of the gene. Since membrane-bound MGF is predicted to be proteolytically cleaved within the sequences encoded by exon 6 to generate a soluble protein, this alternately spliced cDNA would likely encode a noncleavable, membrane-bound form of MGF. No difference in biological activity on human bone marrow cells was observed with recombinant, soluble forms of both types of human MGF protein. Our previous localization of the murine MGF gene to the Sl locus on chromosome 10 suggested (via conserved linkage groups) that the human MGF gene would be located on human chromosome 12. Therefore, rodent-human somatic cell hybrids with or without an entire human chromosome 12 and hybrids retaining partial 12 were tested by Southern blot analysis and used to show the presence of the human Mgf locus at chromosome region 12q. Chromosomal in situ hybridization localized the gene to 12q22-q24 in the region predicted by the comparative mapping of the murine Mgf/Sl locus. 相似文献

Three c-sis cDNA clones were obtained from polyadenylated RNA of a human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) type I transformed cell line. Two clones, designated pSM-1 and pSM-2, have cDNA inserts of 2498 and 2509 base pairs (bp), respectively, excluding the sizes of the guanylate tails, and the polyadenylate tracts. These clones are shorter than the estimated size of the c-sis mRNA of 4200 bp. Both of these clones can transform NIH 3T3 cells. The third clone, designated pSM-3 has a cDNA insert of 1421 bp and lacks transforming activity. The sequence of clone pSM-1 reveals a single long open reading frame (nucleotides 118-840) encoding chain A of platelet-derived growth factor, and two segments with homology to v-sis (nucleotides 182-871 and 1021-1325). Sequence homology is noted in the 3' untranslated region to the corresponding regions of the beta 1 interferon (IFN), human and murine beta-nerve growth factor (NGF), human interleukin 2 (IL2) genes, and tubulin pseudogenes. However, no typical AATAAA polyadenylation signal is present. An alternating (dCdA)n X (dGdT)n sequence is present in the 3' flanking cellular sequences similar to those in the corresponding position of the human proenkephalin gene, in the first intron of the gamma-IFN gene, and the second intron of the beta-NGF gene. 相似文献

The nodulin-23 gene of soybean is one of the most abundantly transcribed genes induced during symbiosis with Rhizobium. Using a plasmid (pNod25) from a nodule cDNA library, we have isolated the nodulin-23 gene from a soybean genomic library. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the cDNA and of the genomic clone indicated that the coding region of this gene is 669 bp long and is interrupted by a single intron of about 530 bp. The deduced protein sequence suggests that nodulin-23 may have a signal sequence. The 5'-flanking sequence of two other nodulin genes, nodulin-24 encoding for a membrane polypeptide and one of the leghemoglobin genes (LbC3), were obtained. Comparison of these sequences revealed three conserved regions, one of which, an octanucleotide (GTTTCCCT), has 100% homology. The conserved sequences are arranged in a unique fashion and have a spatial organization with respect to order and position, which may suggest a potential regulatory role in controlling the expression of nodulin and leghemoglobin genes during symbiosis. 相似文献

The gene encoding one subunit of the receptor for the hemopoietic growth factor, GM-CSF, has been previously localized to the short arm of the human sex chromosomes. By pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, the precise localization of this gene, CSF2RA, within the pseudoautosomal region has been determined. The gene is located 1180 to 1300 kb from the telomere, in close proximity to the CpG island B5. The CSF2RA gene spans at least 45 kb, and a representation of most of the gene on three overlapping cosmid clones has been obtained. The exon(s) encoding the first 35 bp of cDNA sequence lies outside these cosmids. The CSF2RA gene is characterized by abundant hypervariable sequences, and a number of informative restriction fragment length polymorphisms have been defined. 相似文献

Genes for the snRNP proteins U1-70K, U1-A, Sm-B′/B, Sm-D1 and Sm-E have been isolated from various metazoan species. The genes for Sm-D1 and Sm-E, which were isolated from a murine and human source respectively, appear to belong to a multigene family. It has been suggested that also for the mammalian U1-C protein such a multigene family exists. With the human U1-C cDNA as a probe, two genes containing sequences homologous to the probe sequence were isolated from a mouse genomic library. Simultaneously, a murine U1-C cDNA was isolated from a mouse cDNA library. This 0.74 kb cDNA contains an open reading frame (ORF) of 477 bp encoding a polypeptide of 159 amino acids (aa) which differs at only one position (position 65) from the human U1-C protein. One of the isolated U1-C genes contains an ORF as well and shares 92% nucleotide sequence identity with the mouse U1-C cDNA. The features of this gene, in particular the absence of introns, the acquisition of a 3′ poly(A) tail and flanking direct repeats, indicate that it represents a processed pseudogene. At the predicted aa sequence level, substitutions of conserved residues at functionally important positions are observed, strongly suggesting that expression of this gene would not lead to a functional polypeptide. The second U1-C gene appeared to be a pseudogene as well because it is also intronless and contains a frameshift mutation compared to the ORF in the mouse U1-C cDNA. The characterization of these two pseudogenes points to the existence of a U1-C multigene family in mice. Furthermore, comparison of aa sequences of the murine, human and Xenopus U1-C shows that the protein is highly conserved through evolution. Since the Xenopus U1-C differs from the two mammalian counterparts solely at a number of positions in the C-terminal region, it can be concluded that aa changes are less well tolerated in the N-terminal region of U1-C than in the rest of the protein. 相似文献

Molecular cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of the cDNA coding for rat lipocortin I (calpactin II) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Lipocortins (LC) are a family of proteins that were initially described to be induced by glucocorticosteroids and to inhibit phospholipase A2 (PLA2). Using oligodeoxynucleotide probes corresponding to partial amino acid (aa) sequences of rat lipocortin I (LCI), we have isolated a cDNA clone for rat LCI from a cDNA library prepared from poly(A)+RNA of peritoneal cells of dexamethasone-treated rat. The cDNA insert (1355 bp) had an open reading frame of 1038 bp that encoded a 346-aa polypeptide (Mr 38,784). The nucleotide sequence and the amino acid sequence deduced from it showed high homology with the reported sequences of human LCI. A plasmid containing the trc promoter and cDNA sequence for 346 aa residues of the rat LCI was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. Antibody to human LCI crossreacted with the recombinant rat LCI, and the recombinant protein had characteristics of natural rat LCI including PLA2 inhibitory activity in vitro. 相似文献
