Recent development of titratable coions has paved the way for realizing all-atom molecular dynamics at constant pH. To further improve physical realism, here we describe a technique in which proton titration of the solute is directly coupled to the interconversion between water and hydroxide or hydronium. We test the new method in replica-exchange continuous constant pH molecular dynamics simulations of three proteins, HP36, BBL, and HEWL. The calculated pKa values based on 10-ns sampling per replica have the average absolute and root-mean-square errors of 0.7 and 0.9 pH units, respectively. Introducing titratable water in molecular dynamics offers a means to model proton exchange between solute and solvent, thus opening a door to gaining new insights into the intricate details of biological phenomena involving proton translocation.Solution pH is an important factor in biology. Although neutral pH in extracellular medium accounts for balanced electrostatics and proper folding of protein structures, pH gradients across cell membranes induce large conformational changes that are necessary for biological functions, such as ATP synthesis and efflux of small molecules out of the cell. To gain detailed insights into pH-dependent conformational phenomena, several constant pH molecular dynamics (pHMD) methods, based on either discrete or continuous titration coordinates, have been developed in the last decade (1–4). In the continuous pHMD (CpHMD) framework (2,4), a set of titration coordinates {λi} are simultaneously propagated along with the conformational degrees of freedom. Although the original CpHMD method based on the generalized Born (GB) implicit-solvent models (2,4) offers quantitative prediction of pKa values and pH dependence of folding and conformational dynamics of proteins (5), its accuracy and applicability to highly charged systems and those with dominantly hydrophobic regions are limited due to the approximate nature of the underlying implicit-solvent models.Motivated by the above-mentioned need, three groups have made efforts to develop a CpHMD method using exclusively the explicit-solvent models (6–8). In our development, the titration of acidic and basic sites is coupled with that of coions to level the total charge of the system (8). To further improve physical realism, here we replace the coions by titratable water molecules, which not only absorb the excess charge but also enable direct modeling of solute-solvent proton exchange in classical molecular dynamics simulations.To illustrate the utility of the new methodology, we applied it to the titration simulations of three proteins that were previously used to benchmark the GB-based CpHMD. Although this work does not explore specific interactions between titratable waters and proteins, the methodology can be further tested or improved to provide a rigorous way for modeling proton transfer in molecular dynamics, which is a computationally efficient alternative to the empirical valence-bond theory-based methodologies (9,10).We define titration of water as:
Open in a separate windowaTaken from Wallace and Shen (12). The pKa''s of BBL were recalculated.bSampling time per pH replica.Breaking the simulations in two halves, we noticed that the second 5-ns sampling gave better agreement with experiment. The RMS deviation is reduced from 1.2 to 0.9 pH units, while the average absolute deviation is reduced from 1.0 to 0.6 pH units. The linear regression against experimental data is also improved, with the slope decreasing from 1.4 to 1.1 although R2 remains the same. Comparing these second-half results with the GB-based simulations, we find that the RMS and average absolute deviations are about the same as the GB-CpHMD results; however, the all-atom simulations show a small systematic overestimation (regression slope >1), whereas GB simulations show a systematic underestimation (regression slope <1).The improvement in the second halves of the simulations are seen mainly for residues involved in attractive electrostatic interactions, including Asp44 and Asp46 of HP36, Asp129 of BBL, and Asp48, Asp66, and Asp87 of HEWL. These residues are initially locked in salt-bridges or hydrogen bonds. However, in the second 5 ns, the attractive interactions weakened, leading to a decrease in the calculated pKa shifts relative to the model values and better agreement with experiment. For instance, Asp44 was initially in a salt-bridge distance from Arg55. However, the salt-bridge positions were sampled less often in the second 5 ns (see Fig. S5), which explains the 1-unit reduction in the calculated pKa shift. Significant fluctuation in ion-pair interactions was also observed in the work by Alexov (11). The carboxyl oxygen of Asp46 was a hydrogen-bond acceptor with both the backbone amide and hydroxyl of Ser43. These hydrogen bonds were less frequently sampled in the second 5 ns (see Fig. S6), leading to a decrease of the pKa shift for Asp46 by 1.3 units. These results indicate that extensive conformational sampling is necessary to give an accurate estimate of the ratio between the charged and neutral populations.Limited conformational sampling is also a contributing factor to the overestimation of the pKa shifts for buried residues (Fig. S7 and Fig. S8). The increase in SASA is correlated with the more frequent sampling of the states with λ close to 1, i.e., the deprotonated form (see Fig. S9). However, because Glu35 was buried in the starting conformation and the transition between buried and exposed states is slow compared to the simulation length, the exposed state may not be sufficiently sampled, leading to overestimation of the pKa shift.In contrast to Glu35, the SASA of Asp52 in HEWL is almost identical for both protonation states. The lack of conformational fluctuation is due to the strong hydrogen bonding with the side-chain amino group of Asn46 and Asn59 (data not shown). Overestimation of the pKa shifts for buried residues can also be attributed to the limitation of the additive force field which underestimates dielectric response in protein environment (more discussion see Supporting Material) of the pKa shifts for buried residues.Finally, to ascertain if the presence of hydroxide/hydronium introduces artifacts, we studied the interaction between hydroxide/hydronium and the titratable sites/ions. Comparing the hydroxide/hydronium with respective chloride/sodium ions, we find that the spatial distributions are nearly identical (see plots of distance distributions and radial distribution functions in Figs. S10–S13). However, the relative occupancy of the hydroxide around the neutral Asp/Glu, positive histidine, or sodium ion is 2–3 times as that of a chloride. The water-bridged interaction between sodium and chloride ions becomes much weaker when chloride is replaced by hydroxide or sodium is replaced by hydronium. By contrast, the occupancy of the hydronium around the solute is similar to that of the sodium. Furthermore, similar pKa results for these proteins were obtained when coions were used instead of titratable waters (data not shown). Thus, we believe that potential artifacts related to the ionized forms of water are negligible. Work is underway to further understand the limitations of the methodology and to explore applications to protein dynamics coupled to proton transfer.In summary, we have developed and tested titratable water models for use in all-atom CpHMD simulations. Although the benchmark pKa calculations indicate a comparable accuracy as the GB-CpHMD method, the all-atom method offers physical rigor and most importantly, it is applicable to systems that cannot be studied with GB-based simulations such as lipids and nucleic acids. We anticipate that the accuracy of this methodology can be further improved by incorporating the new-generation force fields that account for polarization. The coupling between proton titration of water and solute offers a computationally efficient way to model proton transfer in molecular mechanics simulations. 相似文献

Cytosolic lipid droplets were considered until recently to be rather inert particles of stored neutral lipid. Largely through proteomics is it now known that droplets are dynamic organelles and that they participate in several important metabolic reactions as well as trafficking and interorganellar communication. In this review, the role of droplets in metabolism in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the fly Drosophila melanogaster, and several mammalian sources are discussed, particularly focusing on those reactions shared by these organisms. From proteomics and older work, it is clear that droplets are important for fatty acid and sterol biosynthesis, fatty acid activation, and lipolysis. However, many droplet-associated enzymes are predicted to span a membrane two or more times, which suggests either that droplet structure is more complex than the current model posits, or that there are tightly bound membranes, particularly derived from the endoplasmic reticulum, which account for the association of several of these proteins.Cytosolic lipid droplets, originally thought to be simply coalesced neutral lipids waiting for lipolysis at metabolic demand, are now known to be considerably more complicated both structurally and functionally. There is general agreement that droplets are comprised of a core of neutral lipids, principally triglycerides and steryl esters, surrounded by a leaflet of phospholipids into which are embedded a specific subset of cellular proteins, the most abundant of which are members of the PAT family (see below) in animal cells (1). However, this model is probably too simple; there is evidence from physical probes of droplets isolated from yeast mutants unable to synthesize triglycerides or steryl esters that these two molecular families are partially segregated within the core, with thin shells of steryl esters forming concentric hollow spheres around an inner core composed principally of triglycerides (2).The next layer of complexity is the functional inhomogeneity of droplets. Subsets of droplets within the same cells exist with different populations of PAT proteins, differentiating among different sizes, ages, and levels of metabolic activity (3, 4). Perhaps most surprisingly, droplets may be comprised, at least in some cases, not of the layered core-phospholipid shell architecture at all but a knot of tightly woven endoplasmic reticulum (ER) surrounded by secreted neutral lipid, itself encased with a single leaflet. Such a model is based on electron microscopic thin sections (5), freeze fracture-immunogold evidence (6), immunohistochemical studies of ER luminal proteins within the droplet (7), and the identification of these proteins, notably ER chaperones, in several proteomic studies. Although certainly, such a complex structure must obey physical laws governing aqueous interactions with hydrophobic lipids and artifacts in processing for electron microscopy do occur, it may be best at present to keep an open mind and consider that droplets may not have the same structure among tissues and that they may take multiple physical forms in rapid order as they dynamically perform their functions.What are these functions? The most obvious one is lipid metabolism, namely the biogenesis and breakdown of the neutral lipids contained within the droplet. Although this conclusion predates proteomic studies (8), these recent studies have revealed the breadth and conservation of metabolic reactions that occur at or near the droplet surface, the subject of this review. Moreover, proteomics has demonstrated the surprising fact that droplets are likely to be very active in organellar communication because they are replete in rab proteins and other trafficking molecules. Our knowledge from proteomic studies of droplet trafficking and communication is discussed separately in this thematic review series.A major caveat must be kept in mind when evaluating droplet proteomics data: besides droplet trafficking through transient interactions with vesicles or target organelles such as early endosomes (9), droplets make extensive, tight, and long-lasting synapses with the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and peroxisomes (10, 11). The fact that ER, mitochondrial, peroxisomal, and a few plasma membrane proteins are found with such high frequency in the droplet proteome probably reflects these tight interorganellar interactions, perhaps similar to the mitochondrially associated membranes (MAMs) that link mitochondria with ER (12). The molecular basis for droplet-mediated synapses are not yet known. Besides the frequent occurrence of specific nondroplet organelle proteins in the droplet proteome, adventitious contamination of droplets is unlikely in view of the unique density of droplets that allow their flotation to the top of aqueous buffers and density gradients after centrifugation while all other cell components sink (which also permits several washes with high recovery), and the nonrandom coisolation of subsets of proteins from other organelles, such as the β-oxidation peroxisomal enzymes (10), which suggests specialized regions for metabolically-productive droplet interactions at the synapses.Droplet-ER interactions are a special case; it is the rule rather than the exception that enzymes of lipid metabolism that are found in the droplet proteome are also found to varying extents in the ER. This has been well documented in yeast through genome-wide green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagging (13, 14). Erg6p, an enzyme in the latter part of the ergosterol biosynthetic pathway, is the only droplet protein in the pathway with a near-exclusive droplet localization in yeast; Erg1p, Erg7p, and Erg 27p are dually localized, and the pattern changes depending on metabolic state. Whether this general rule is specific for yeast, in which droplets remain on the ER surface (15), is not yet clear. However, several examples already exist in mammalian cells: cytochrome b5 reductase (DT diaphorase) and various sterol dehydrogenases (see 12).

Nutrient input in streams alters the density and species composition of attached algal communities in open systems. However, in forested streams, the light reaching the streambed (rather than the local nutrient levels) may limit the growth of these communities. A nutrient‐enrichment experiment in a forested oligotrophic stream was performed to test the hypothesis that nutrient addition has only minor effects on the community composition of attached algae and cyanobacteria under light limitation. Moderate nutrient addition consisted of increasing basal phosphorus (P) concentrations 3‐fold and basal nitrogen (N) concentrations 2‐fold. Two upstream control reaches were compared to a downstream reach before and after nutrient addition. Nutrients were added continuously to the downstream reach for 1 year. Algal biofilms growing on ceramic tiles were sampled and identified for more than a year before nutrient addition to 12 months after. Diatoms were the most abundant taxonomic group in the three stream reaches. Nutrient enrichment caused significant variations in the composition of the diatom community. While some taxa showed significant decreases (e.g., Achnanthes minutissima, Gomphonema angustum), increases for other taxa (such as Rhoicosphenia abbreviata and Amphora ovalis) were detected in the enriched reach (for taxonomic authors, see Table 2 ). Epiphytic and adnate taxa of large size were enhanced, particularly during periods of favorable growth conditions (spring). Nutrients also caused a change in the algal chl a, which increased from 0.5–5.8 to 2.1–10.7 μg chl · cm?2. Our results indicate that in oligotrophic forested streams, long‐term nutrient addition has significant effects on the algal biomass and community composition, which are detectable despite the low light availability caused by the tree canopy. Low light availability moderates but does not detain the long‐term tendency toward a nutrient‐tolerant community. Furthermore, the effects of nutrient addition on the algal community occur in spite of seasonal variations in light, water flow, and water chemical characteristics, which may confound the observations.

The activity levels of DNA polymerases α and β have been measured by autoradiography in squash preparations from rat testis of sexually mature animals. Similar results were obtained with ‘fixed’ samples (dipped in acetone: ethanol for 5 min at 25 °C) or ‘unfixed’ samples (frozen in liquid nitrogen and freeze-dried). The activities of DNA polymerases α and β in situ were distinguished by differential assay conditions and by selective inhibition with compounds such as N-ethylmaleimide and aphidicolin. Using the endogenous chromatin as template, maximal activity for both enzymes was obtained in the presence of all four deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, MgCl2 and ethylene glycol. When DNA polymerase activities in several predominant testicular cell types (pre-leptotene primary spermatocytes, pachytene primary spermatocytes, round spermatids and elongated spermatids) were quantitatively compared, on a per cell basis, the following percentage distribution was observed:

A commercially available tissue culture medium has been proven capable of preserving dog kidney function for at least 24 hr after simple cooling. The advantages of using tissue culture medium as preservation fluid instead of plasma or albumin solutions from the infectious and immunological points of view are obvious. An in vitro study was completed using the tissue

The simian parvoviruses (SPVs) are in the genus Erythrovirus in the family Parvoviridae and are most closely related to the human virus B19. SPV has been identified in cynomolgus, rhesus, and pigtailed macaques. All of the primate erythroviruses have a predilection for erythroid precursors. Infection, which is common in macaques, is usually clinically silent. Disease from SPV is associated with immunosuppression due to infection with various retroviruses (SIV, simian retrovirus, and simian–human immunodeficiency virus), surgery, drug toxicity studies, and posttransplantation immunosuppressive treatment and therefore is of concern in studies that use parvovirus-positive macaques.Abbreviations: SHIV, chimeric simian–human immunodeficiency virus, SPV, simian parvovirus, SRV, type D simian retrovirus, SIV, simian immunodeficiency virusIn 1959, a small, nonenveloped virus (rat virus) was isolated from rat tissue cultures.21 Over the next decade, similar viruses were identified as the etiologic agents of severe enteritis in cats and mink and of facial abnormalities in newborn hamsters.44,45 The nonenveloped viruses are among the smallest viruses that infect mammalian cells, with a genome size of approximately 5 kb. They are named parvoviruses, from the Latin parvum, meaning small. The virion has icosahedral symmetry, is composed of 2 or 3 structural proteins (VP1, VP2, and sometimes VP3), and contains a linear single-stranded DNA genome. The viral DNA also encodes 1 or 2 nonstructural proteins (NS1 and NS2).Currently the family Parvoviridae is divided into 2 subfamilies, the Parvovirinae, which infect vertebrates, and the Densovirinae, invertebrates (2 Although many parvoviruses are associated with severe disease, others cause inapparent infections. The adeno-associated viruses are replication-defective parvoviruses, identified as contaminants of adenovirus stocks, and require coinfection with adenovirus or herpesvirus.
Open in a separate windowA key feature of replication-competent, autonomous, parvoviruses is the requirement for mitotically active host cells for viral replication. Parvoviruses require a host cell to go through S phase to replicate and lack the ability to initiate host DNA synthesis in resting cells.34 The autonomous parvoviruses are fairly species-specific, although some will grow in cultured cells from other species. In addition, transformation of ordinarily nonpermissive cells can render them permissive for productive infection by rodent parvoviruses.40 However, parvoviruses vary markedly in host range and pathogenicity, as determined primarily by the capsid proteins.10 The most severe clinical effects tend to occur in fetal and newborn animals, including in utero death and congenital lesions.4 In older animals, clinical signs are due to lytic viral replication in target tissues and to the subsequent immune response4. 相似文献

Sulfonamide-resistant Escherichia coli and Salmonella isolates from pigs and chickens in Ontario and Québec were screened for sul1, sul2, and sul3 by PCR. Each sul gene was distributed differently across populations, with a significant difference between distribution in commensal E. coli and Salmonella isolates and sul3 restricted mainly to porcine E. coli isolates.Resistance to sulfonamides is frequent in bacteria from farm animals (7, 8, 9, 10) and is usually caused by the acquisition of the genes sul1, sul2, and sul3 (20, 22). The objectives of this study were (i) to assess the distribution of these genes in Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica isolates in swine and chickens from two major provinces in Canada, (ii) to assess whether differences occur in the distribution of these genes among bacterial species found within two different animal host species, and (iii) to assess whether significant differences in the distribution of these genes are present between the commensal E. coli strains used as indicators for surveillance of antimicrobial resistance and the zoonotic Salmonella pathogens found in the same ecological niche. In contrast to previous studies, a multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the data, control for confounding factors, and assess the interaction effect between animal and bacterial species in terms of the probability of an isolate carrying a specific sul gene. The distribution of sulfonamide resistance genes among sulfonamide-resistant E. coli (393 isolates from chickens and 311 from swine) and Salmonella (13 isolates from chickens and 221 from swine) isolates was assessed. These isolates were collected by the Canadian Integrated Program for Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance (CIPARS) between 2003 and 2005 from ceca of apparently healthy animals at abattoirs in Ontario (n = 435) and Québec (n = 503). The methods used by CIPARS are presented in detail elsewhere (8-10). The isolates were screened with a previously published multiplex PCR for sul1, sul2, and sul3 (16). The sul1 and sul2 genes were found in E. coli and Salmonella isolates from both animal species. The sul3 gene was detected in both E. coli and Salmonella isolates from swine but only in E. coli isolates from chickens (Table (Table1).1). Three percent of the isolates had no detectable sul gene, 12.5% possessed two genes, and two isolates carried three genes (Table (Table1).1). Similar (2, 3, 14, 19) or higher (4, 11, 17) values for multiple genes have been reported by others. The overall higher prevalence of sul1 in Salmonella isolates and of sul2 and sul3 in E. coli isolates was in agreement with the results of previous studies (2-4, 11, 12, 14, 21).
Open in a separate windowThree logistic regression models (Table (Table2)2) for associations between the presence of each sul gene and the bacterial species, animal species, province of origin of the animals, and year of isolation were built using Stata 9 (StataCorp, College Station, TX). Statistical interactions between bacterial and animal species were assessed in the sul1 and sul2 models but not in the sul3 model (the sample size was insufficient). Tests were two tailed, with significance at a P value of ≤0.05. A significant interaction between bacterial and animal species was observed for sul1 (Table (Table2).2). The presence of statistical interactions indicates that the effect of each variable depends on the state of the other variable. Thus, the effects of bacterial and animal species on the distribution of sul1 cannot be interpreted independently. For instance, sul1 was more frequent in Salmonella isolates from swine than from chickens, but the reverse was true for E. coli isolates (Table (Table3).3). Genomic islands containing sul1 are present in some Salmonella serovars, including S. enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. Derby (1, 6, 18), which were the most frequent in the swine samples of this study (Table (Table4).4). This contrasts with E. coli strains, in which sul1 is usually associated with transposons and large transferable plasmids (22). Thus, the presence of significant statistical interactions in the sul1 model could be an indicator of the differential importance of horizontal gene transfer in E. coli strains versus clonal expansion of specific Salmonella serovars in the animal species investigated. No significant interaction was detected for sul2 (P = 0.66) (Table (Table2).2). This could be the consequence of the relatively small number of sul2-positive Salmonella isolates and the resultant lack of statistical power; however, it is also possible that sul2 has a different epidemiology than sul1. The sul2 gene has not been shown to be located on genomic islands and is usually plasmid borne (22). It may therefore be transferred more frequently than sul1 between E. coli and Salmonella and between bacteria from swine and chickens, leading to the absence of a significant interaction in the sul2 model. Serotyping, molecular typing, and assessment of gene transferability would be required to test these hypotheses.
Open in a separate windowaStatistical interaction between data for bacterial species and animal species. The terms for this interaction are described in Table Table33.bExample of odds ratio interpretation: the odds of a porcine isolate carrying sul3 were 39.57 times higher than for an isolate obtained from chickens. NI, not included in the model. The sul2 model was not included because the P value for this interaction was equal to 0.66, and the sul3 model was not included because it did not converge when including this interaction.cP < 0.001.
Open in a separate windowaExample of interpretation: the interaction effect suggests that sul1-mediated sulfonamide resistance is 19.79 times more likely to occur in Salmonella in pigs than in E. coli in pigs.
Open in a separate windowaThe first and second numbers in each column represent swine and chicken isolates, respectively; the total number of tabulated occurrences of sulfonamide genes is larger than the number of resistant isolates investigated because some isolates carried several genes simultaneously.A significant increase in the prevalence of sul3 was detected between 2003 and 2004 (P = 0.007) but not between 2004 and 2005 (P = 0.055) nor at any time for sul1 and sul2 (Table (Table2).2). The sul3 gene has emerged recently (5), and its prevalence was probably still increasing in 2003. The odds of finding sul3 in Salmonella isolates were 10 times lower than for E. coli isolates and 40 times higher in swine than in chickens (Table (Table2).2). Other studies have also found high frequencies of sul3 in porcine E. coli isolates (5, 12, 20) and much lower frequencies in other sources (4, 11, 12, 14). Although these isolates were not typed, previous results have shown that sul3 is present in both pathogenic and commensal porcine E. coli isolates (5) of at least 13 different serotypes (P. Boerlin and R. M. Travis, unpublished data). The sul3 gene has spread extensively across porcine E. coli populations in North America and Europe but remains uncommon in other major farm animal species and in Salmonella populations (Table (Table1)1) (2, 13). It may require more time to spread to other populations. There may be biological and ecological barriers slowing its spread to bacteria of other animal species or coselection factors that favor its presence in porcine E. coli populations.Using the example of sulfonamides as a model for the application of multivariable statistical approaches to the study of antimicrobial resistance epidemiology, this study indicates that the relative frequencies of genes encoding resistance to the same antimicrobial either present in bacterial populations for decades or recently emerged can vary significantly between animal hosts and phylogenetically related bacterial species sharing the same ecological niche. Differences in the distribution of resistance determinants may remain hidden when assessing resistance phenotypes. Similar antimicrobial susceptibility results do not necessarily imply similar resistance genes. These findings highlight the need to further explore the interactions between commensals and pathogens and the ways in which commensal bacteria are interpreted as indicators of antimicrobial resistance in pathogens. 相似文献
