Interaction of tetrahydrocortisol (THF) and its apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) complex with a CC(GCC)5/GG(CGG)5 duplex were studied by IR spectroscopy, which revealed formation of hydrogen bonds between the OH group of the THF A-ring and the C=O groups of cytosine and guanine. In addition, THF formed hydrogen bonds with the PO2 group of the duplex and with a sugar OH group. THF and ApoA-I interacted with the duplex in the same active site involving the base C=O groups. THF increased the conformational order in the duplex, while the THF-ApoA-I complex induced an order → disorder transition. 相似文献

A high affinity of apolipoprotein A-I for DNA and synthetic oligonucleotides was found using the affinity chromatography, affinity modification, and enzyme analysis. The competitive inhibition and Southern hybridization allowed disclosing the specificity of the interaction of the tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex (THC-ApoA-I) with high molecular weight DNA in regions contained GCC/CGG-sequences. The S1 nuclease sensitivity of the duplex CC(GCC)3 x GG(CGG)3 was found to occur under the action of THC-ApoA-I complex. The role of the interaction sites of eukaryotic DNA with steroid (THC, androsterone)-ApoA-I complexes in the initiation of the copy reaction in vitro was revealed. 相似文献

Tetrahydrocortisol stimulates DNA and protein biosynthesis in hepatocytes only when it enters the complex with apolipoprotein A-I. Tetrahydrocortisol–apolipoprotein A-I (THC–apoA-I) complex specifically interacts with eukaryotic DNA isolated from rat liver. In the process of interaction, rupture of hydrogen bonds between the pairs of nitrous bases occurs with the formation of single-stranded DNA structures. In such state DNA forms complexes with DNA-dependent RNA-polymerase. The most probable site of binding the tetrahydrocortisol–apolipoprotein A-I complex with DNA is the sequence of CC(GCC)n type entering the structure of many genes, among them the structure of human apolipoprotein A-I gene. Oligonucleotide of this type has been synthesized. Association constant (Kass) of it with tetrahydrocortisol–apolipoprotein A-I complex was shown to be 1.66×106 M−1. Substitution of tetrahydrocortisol for cortisol in the complex results in a considerable decrease of Kass. It was assumed that in the GC-pairs of the given sequence tetrahydrocortisol itself participates in the formation of hydrogen bonds with cytosine, favoring their rupture with complementary base—guanine. 相似文献

On primary culture of hepatocytes it is shown, that a complex cortisol-apolipoprotein A-I did not change rate of biosynthesis DNA and protein, whereas the complex tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I (THC-apoA-I) essentially raised rate of incorporation 3H-thymidine in DNA and 14C-leucine into protein. By a method of small-angle X-ray scattering it is shown, that appreciable interaction with eukariotic DNA is marked only in case of use of a complex THC-apoA-I, thus there is local fusion of DNA. The most probable region of interaction of the given complex with DNA is repetition (GCC)n the type, included in structure of many genes eukariot, including the human. It is synthesized oligonucleotid (duplex) of this type. It is shown, that at his interaction with complex THC-apoA-I there is a formation of more difficult complex, which breaks up with formation of complementary chains of oligonucleotides. The last also enter interaction with complex THC-apoA-I. It is given of kinetic this multiphasic process. Interaction of a complex cortisol-anoA-I with a duplex is less specific and does not result reduce in decay of the duplex and in formation of complementary oligonucleotides. 相似文献

A mechanism of activation of protein biosynthesis in hepatocytes was proposed as effected by the conditioned medium of nonparenchymal liver cells incubated in the presence of high density lypoproteins, cortisol, and lypopolysaccharides. It was found that the increase in the biosynthesis rate was associated with the formation of the tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I (THC-apoA-I) complex in macrophages, which display 5 alpha- and 5 beta-reductase activity and are constituents of nonparenchymal liver hepatocytes. Using the small-angle X-ray scattering technique, it was shown that the THC-apoA-I-eukaryotic DNA interaction may break hydrogen bonds between pairs of complementary nucleic bases and cause the formation of single-stranded DNA fragments capable of binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The interaction is highly cooperative and has a saturating mode, up to six enzyme molecules being bound per DNA molecule. 相似文献

Primary hepatocyte culture has been used to demonstrate that the cortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex does not affect the DNA and protein biosynthesis rates, whereas the tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex (THC-apoA-I) substantially increases the rates of 3H-thymidine and 14C-leucine incorporation into DNA and protein, respectively. Small-angle X-ray scattering data show that only THC-apoA-I effectively interacts with eukaryotic DNA, which is accompanied by local DNA melting. The (GCC)n repeat, a component of many human and other eukaryotic genes, is the most probable region of the interaction of this complex with DNA. An oligonucleotide (duplex) of this type has been synthesized. Its interaction with THC-apoA-I yields a larger complex, which breaks up, giving rise to complementary oligonucleotide strands. They also interact with THC-apoA-I. The equilibrium kinetics of this multiphase process is described. The interaction of the cortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex with the duplex is less specific and does not cause its breakup or the formation of complementary oligonucleotides. 相似文献

The 2D NMR analysis in solution of the DNA duplex d(CTCTC*A*ACTTCC).d(GGAAGTTGAGAG) binding to the dirhodium unit cis-[Rh2(mu-O2CCH3)2(eta1-O2CCH3)]+ showed that an unprecedented intrastrand adduct, dsII, is formed with the dirhodium unit cross-linking in the major groove residues C5 and A6 (indicated with asterisks), also corroborated by enzyme digestion studies. Formation of the dirhodium complex dsII destabilizes significantly the duplex as indicated by the substantial decrease in its melting temperature (DeltaTm = -22.9 degrees C). The reduced thermal stability of dsII is attributed to the decreased stacking of the bases and the complete disruption and/or weakening of the hydrogen bonds within the base pairs in the immediate vicinity of the metalation site (C5.G20 and A6.T19), but the effects due to the metal binding are more severe for the base pairs in the 5' direction to the lesion site. The NMR spectroscopic data indicate that Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding is completely disrupted for the C5.G20 site and considerably weakened for A6.T19. In dsII, the bases C5 and A6 bind to eq positions of the dirhodium unit cis-[Rh2(mu-O2CCH3)2(eta1-O2CCH3)]+, which retains one monodentate and two bridging acetate groups, presumably due to steric reasons. Binding of A6 takes place via N7, whereas binding of the C5 base takes place via the exocyclic N4 site, resulting in the anti-cytosine rotamer with respect to site N3 in its metal-stabilized rare iminooxo form. 相似文献

A novel mechanism of protein biosynthesis regulation in liver under the action of reduced forms of steroid hormones (tetrahydrocortisol) and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) is presented. Kupffer cells play an important role in uptake of the cortisol and high density lipoproteins (HDL) as well as in formation of the active complex, tetrahydrocortisol+apolipoprotein A-I (THC-apoA-I). If macrophages are stimulated by lipopolysaccharides (LPS), these processes enhance dramatically, thus causing parallel activation of nucleolar DNA expression and ribosome formation in hepatocytes. THC-apoA-I complex accelerates protein biosynthesis in primary cultures of hepatocytes, but not in macrophages and endotheliocytes. 相似文献

The complex formed by tetrahydrocortisol (THC) and apolipoprotein A-I (ApoAI) specifically interacts with eukaryotic DNA from rat liver. Taken together, physical and chemical data and the results of small-angle X-ray scattering analysis show that interaction of the THC-ApoAI complex with eukaryotic DNA results in deformation of the DNA double helix. Single-stranded fragments were demonstrated to cause deformation of the double helix. In this state DNA forms complexes with DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This interaction is cooperative and of saturating type; up to six enzyme molecules bind with one DNA molecule. The putative site of complex binding with DNA is the sequence CC(GCC)n found in many genes including the human ApoAI gene. An oligonucleotide of this type was synthesized. Its association constant (Ka) was 1.66 x 10(6) M-1. Substitution of THC with cortysol considerably decreases the Ka. We suggest that THC interacting with GC pairs of the binding site forms hydrogen bonds with cytosine, inducing rupture of the bonds within the complementary nucleic base pair. 相似文献

A comprehensive database analysis of C--H...O hydrogen bonds in 3124 alpha-helices and their corresponding helix termini has been carried out from a nonredundant data set of high-resolution globular protein structures resolved at better than 2.0 A in order to investigate their role in the helix, the important protein secondary structural element. The possible occurrence of 5 --> 1 C--H...O hydrogen bond between the ith residue CH group and (i - 4)th residue C==O with C...O < or = 3.8 A is studied, considering as potential donors the main-chain Calpha and the side-chain carbon atoms Cbeta, Cgamma, Cdelta and Cepsilon. Similar analysis has been carried out for 4 --> 1 C--H...O hydrogen bonds, since the C--H...O hydrogen bonds found in helices are predominantly of type 5 --> 1 or 4 --> 1. A total of 17,367 (9310 of type 5 --> 1 and 8057 of type 4 --> 1) C--H...O hydrogen bonds are found to satisfy the selected criteria. The average stereochemical parameters for the data set suggest that the observed C--H...O hydrogen bonds are attractive interactions. Our analysis reveals that the Cgamma and Cbeta hydrogen atom(s) are frequently involved in such hydrogen bonds. A marked preference is noticed for aliphatic beta-branched residue Ile to participate in 5 --> 1 C--H...O hydrogen bonds involving methylene Cgamma 1 atom as donor in alpha-helices. This may be an enthalpic compensation for the greater loss of side-chain conformational entropy for beta-branched amino acids due to the constraint on side-chain torsion angle, namely, chi1, when they occur in helices. The preference of amino acids for 4 --> 1 C--H...O hydrogen bonds is found to be more for Asp, Cys, and for aromatic residues Trp, Phe, and His. Interestingly, overall propensity for C--H...O hydrogen bonds shows that a majority of the helix favoring residues such as Met, Glu, Arg, Lys, Leu, and Gln, which also have large side-chains, prefer to be involved in such types of weak attractive interactions in helices. The amino acid side-chains that participate in C--H...O interactions are found to shield the acceptor carbonyl oxygen atom from the solvent. In addition, C--H...O hydrogen bonds are present along with helix stabilizing salt bridges. A novel helix terminating interaction motif, X-Gly with Gly at C(cap) position having 5 --> 1 Calpha--H...O, and a chain reversal structural motif having 1 --> 5 Calpha-H...O have been identified and discussed. Our analysis highlights that a multitude of local C--H...O hydrogen bonds formed by a variety of amino acid side-chains and Calpha hydrogen atoms occur in helices and more so at the helix termini. It may be surmised that the main-chain Calpha and the side-chain CH that participate in C--H...O hydrogen bonds collectively augment the cohesive energy and thereby contribute together with the classical N--H...O hydrogen bonds and other interactions to the overall stability of helix and therefore of proteins. 相似文献

Structural analysis of d(GCAATTGC)2 and its complex with berenil by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The structures of d(GCAATTGC)2 and its complex with berenil in solution were analyzed by two-dimensional 1H NMR spectroscopy. Intra- and internucleotide nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) connectivities demonstrate that the octanucleotide duplex is primarily in the B conformation. Binding with berenil stabilizes the duplex with respect to thermal denaturation by about 10 degrees C, based on the appearance of the imino proton signals. The berenil-d(GCAATTGC)2 system is in fast exchange on the NMR time scale. The two-dimensional NMR data reveal that berenil binds in the minor groove of d(GCAATTGC)2. The aromatic drug protons are placed within 5 A of the H2 proton of both adenines, the H1', H5', and H5" of both thymidines, and the H4', H5', and H5" of the internal guanosine. The amidine protons on berenil are also close to the H2 proton of both adenines. The duplex retains an overall B conformation in the complex with berenil. At 18 degrees C, NOE contacts at longer mixing times indicate the presence of end-to-end association both in the duplex alone and also in its complex with berenil. These intermolecular contacts either vanished or diminished substantially at 45 degrees C. Two molecular models are proposed for the berenil-(GCAATTGC)2 complex; one has hydrogen bonds between the berenil amidine protons and the carbonyl oxygen, O2, of the external thymines, and the other has hydrogen bonds between the drug amidine protons and the purine nitrogen, N3, of the internal adenines. Quantitative analysis of the NOE data favors the second model. 相似文献

High affinity for DNA and synthetic oligonucleotides was detected for apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) by affinity chromatography, affinity modification, and enzymatic analysis. Competitive inhibition and Southern hybridization showed that the tetrahydrocortisol (THC)-ApoA-I complex specifically bound to high-molecular-weight DNA in regions containing GCC/CGG sequences. The CC(GCC)3 · GG(CGG)3 duplex was found to be sensitive to nuclease S1 under the action of the THC-ApoA-I complex. The eukaryotic DNA binding sites for steroid (THC, androsterone)-ApoA-I complexes were found to be involved in the initiation of DNA copying in vitro. 相似文献

The structure of the complex formed between d(CGTACG)(2) and the antitumor agent 9-amino-[N-(2-dimethylamino)ethyl]acridine-4-carboxamide has been solved to a resolution of 1.6 A using X-ray crystallography. The complex crystallized in space group P6(4) with unit cell dimensions a = b = 30.2 A and c = 39.7 A, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, gamma = 120 degrees. The asymmetric unit contains a single strand of DNA, 1. 5 drug molecules, and 29 water molecules. The final structure has an overall R factor of 19.3%. A drug molecule intercalates between each of the CpG dinucleotide steps with its side chain lying in the major groove, and the protonated dimethylamino group partially occupies positions close to ( approximately 3.0 A) the N7 and O6 atoms of guanine G2. A water molecule forms bridging hydrogen bonds between the 4-carboxamide NH and the phosphate group of the same guanine. Sugar rings adopt the C2'-endo conformation except for cytosine C1 which moves to C3'-endo, thereby preventing steric collision between its C2' methylene group and the intercalated acridine ring. The intercalation cavity is opened by rotations of the main chain torsion angles alpha and gamma at guanines G2 and G6. Intercalation perturbs helix winding throughout the hexanucleotide compared to B-DNA, steps 1 and 2 being unwound by 8 degrees and 12 degrees, respectively, whereas the central TpA step is overwound by 17 degrees. An additional drug molecule, lying with the 2-fold axis in the plane of the acridine ring, is located at the end of each DNA helix, linking it to the next duplex to form a continuously stacked structure. The protonated N,N-dimethylamino group of this "end-stacked" drug hydrogen bonds to the N7 atom of guanine G6. In both drug molecules, the 4-carboxamide group is internally hydrogen bonded to the protonated N-10 atom of the acridine ring. The structure of the intercalated complex enables a rationalization of the known structure-activity relationships for inhibition of topoisomerase II activity, cytotoxicity, and DNA-binding kinetics for 9-aminoacridine-4-carboxamides. 相似文献

Plasmids containing (dG)27.(dC)27 inserts (pPG27), (dG)37.(dC)37 inserts (pPG37), and (dG)24C(dG)21.(dC)24G(dC)21 inserts (pPG46C) were constructed for the study of structural transitions within (dG)n.(dC)n stretches. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has shown that a Mg2+-dependent supercoiling-induced structural transition takes place at pH 8 in plasmid pPG46C. The transition occurs at -0=0.06 and involves a supercoiling release corresponding to 5 superhelical turns. After denaturation of the restriction fragments containing (dG)n.(dC)n inserts, the strands do not renature completely and (dG)n-containing strand migrates in PAGE much faster than the (dC)n-containing one. Chemical modification experiments with the (dG)n-strand have revealed the periodic nature of the protection of guanines against dimethyl sulfate methylation. The (dG)n strand in the presence of Mg2+ forms complexes with the complementary (dC)n strand, which differ from the native duplex in mobility. We believe these effects to be due to the formation of an intrastrand structure within the (dG)n strand stabilized by G.G interactions (we called it G-structure), which in the presence of Mg2+ forms an interstrand complex. with the (dC)n strand. 相似文献

G.A mispairs are one of the most common noncanonical structural motifs of RNA. The 1.9 A resolution crystal structure of the RNA 16-mer r(GCAGAGUUAAAUCUGC)2 has been determined with two isolated or nonadjacent G.A mispairs. The molecule crystallizes with one duplex in the asymmetric unit in space group R3 and unit cell dimensions a = b = c = 49.24 A and alpha = beta = gamma = 51.2 degrees. It is the longest known oligonucleotide duplex at this resolution and isomorphous to the 16-mer duplex with the C.A+ mispairs [Pan, et al., (1998) J. Mol. Biol. 283, 977-984]. The C.A+ mispair behaves like a wobble pair while the G.A+ does not. The G.A mispairs are protonated at N1 of the adenines as in the C.A+ mispairs, and two hydrogen bonds in the G(syn).A+(anti) conformation are formed. The syn guanine is stabilized by an intranucleotide hydrogen bond between the 2-amino and the 5'-phosphate groups. The G(syn).A+(anti) conformation can provide a different surface for recognition in the grooves compared to other G.A hydrogen bonding schemes. The major groove is widened between the two mispairs allowing access to ligands. One of the 3-fold axes is occupied by a sodium ion and a water molecule, while a second is occupied by another water molecule. 相似文献

Studying the temperature dependence of conductivity sigma of rat and human lipoproteins and apoprotein A-I fractions revealed an anomalous region in the range of temperatures (35-38) +/- 0.5 degree C. The activation energy delta H and temperature coefficient sigma (delta sigma/delta T) on both sides of Tc and the heat of transition (delta H of transition) were calculated. In high-density human lipoproteins and apoA-I, the delta H value was found to be very low. Some mechanisms of interaction of hydrocortizone with high-density lipoproteins and apoA-I were studied by using IR-spectroscopy and conductometry were studied. It was found that the hormone considerably increases the portion of alpha-helices and beta-structures in these proteins (coil<-->alpha-helix and coil<-->beta-structure transitions). In this case, delta H value of the transition increases 13-fold; in addition, the abnormal region in apoA-I shifts 1-2 degrees C downwards. The anomalous changes in conductivity in the range of physiological temperatures in all lipoprotein fractions including apoA-I are probably related to structural phase transitions both in proteins and in phospholipids. Since the delta H value of the transition in human high-density lipoproteins is small, it is assumed that, in phospholipids of these particles, an orientation transition of the A<-->C smectic type takes place, which is assigned to the second-order phase transition. The structural transition in apoA-I can probably also be assigned to the second-order phase transition since the enthalpia of the transition is very small; presumably, this transition is related to changes in symmetry due to changes in the secondary structure (coil<-->beta-tructure transition). 相似文献

Proton and phosphorus two-dimensional NMR studies are reported for the complementary d(C1-A2-T3-G4-X5-G6-T7-A8-C9).d(G10-T11-A12-C13-A14-C15-A 16-T17-G18) nonanucleotide duplex (designated X.A 9-mer) that contains a 1,N2-propanodeoxyguanosine exocyclic adduct, X5, opposite deoxyadenosine A14 in the center of the helix. The NMR studies detect a pH-dependent conformational transition; this paper focuses on the structure present at pH 5.8. The two-dimensional NOESY studies of the X.A 9-mer duplex in H2O and D2O solution establish that X5 adopts a syn orientation while A14 adopts an anti orientation about the glycosidic bond at the lesion site. The large downfield shift of the amino protons of A14 demonstrates protonation of the deoxyadenosine base at pH 5.8 such that the protonated X5(syn).A14(anti) pair is stabilized by two hydrogen bonds at low pH. At pH 5.8, the observed NOE between the H8 proton of X5 and the H2 proton of A14 in the X.A 9-mer duplex demonstrates unequivocally the formation of the protonated X5(syn).A14(anti) pair. The 1,N2-propano bridge of X5(syn) is located in the major groove. Selective NOEs from the exocyclic methylene protons of X5 to the major groove H8 proton of flanking G4 but not G6 of the G4-X5-G6 segment provide additional structural constraints on the local conformation at the lesion site. A perturbation in the phosphodiester backbone is detected at the C13-A14 phosphorus located at the lesion site by 31P NMR spectroscopy. The two-dimensional NMR studies have been extended to the related complementary X.G 9-mer duplex that contains a central X5.G14 lesion in a sequence that is otherwise identical with the X.A 9-mer duplex. The NMR experimental parameters are consistent with formation of a pH-independent X5(syn).G14(anti) pair stabilized by two hydrogen bonds with the 1,N2-propano exocyclic adduct of X5(syn) located in the major groove. 相似文献

The crystal structure of r(GCCACCCUG).r(CAGGGUCGGC), helix II of the Xenopus laevis 5S rRNA with a cytosine bulge (underlined), has been determined in two forms at 2.2 A (Form I, space group P4(2)2(1)2, a = b = 57.15 A and c = 43.54 A) and 1.7 A (Form II, space group P4(3)2(1)2, a = b = 32.78 A and c = 102.5 A). The helical regions of the nonamers are found in the standard A-RNA conformations and the two forms have an RMS deviation of 0.75 A. However, the cytosine bulge adopts two significantly different conformations with an RMS deviation of 3.9 A. In Form I, the cytosine bulge forms an intermolecular C+*G.C triple in the major groove of a symmetry-related duplex with intermolecular hydrogen bonds between N4C and O6G, and between protonated N3+C and N7G. In contrast, a minor groove C*G.C triple is formed in Form II with intermolecular hydrogen bonds between O2C and N2G, and between N3C and N3G with a water bridge. A partial major groove opening was observed in Form I structure at the bulge site. Two Ca2+ ions were found in Form I helix whereas there were none in Form II. The structural comparison of these two forms indicates that bulged residues can adopt a variety of conformations with little perturbation to the global helix structure. This suggests that bulged residues could function as flexible latches in bridging double helical motifs and facilitate the folding of large RNA molecules. 相似文献
