Under-modified E. coli tRNATyr that contains 7-(aminomethyl)-7-deazaguanosine in place of Q nucleoside can be chemically modified by dansyl chloride under neutral conditions. Fluorescent labelling specifically occurred only in the 7-(aminomethyl)-7-deazaguanine moiety. The modified tRNATyr was found to be active both in aminoacylation and in binding to ribosomes. 相似文献

A precursor of modified nucleoside Q isolated from E. coli methyl-deficient tRNA was determined to be 7-(aminomethyl)-7-deazaguanosine. The structure was deduced by means of its chromatographic and electrophoretic mobilities, and UV and mass spectra, in addition to comparison with the synthesized authentic compound. The same molecule is also found in tRNA of an E. coli mutant selected for deficient synthesis of modified nucleosides. 相似文献

Analogues of GSH in which either the gamma-glutamyl or the glycyl moiety is modified were synthesized and tested as both substrates for and inhibitors of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) 7-7 and 8-8. Acceptor substrates for GST 7-7 were 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and ethacrynic acid (ETA) and for GST 8-8 CDNB, ETA and 4-hydroxynon-trans-2-enal (HNE). The relative ability of each combination of enzyme and GSH analogue to catalyse the conjugation of all acceptor substrates was similar with the exception of the combination of GST 7-7 and gamma-L-Glu-L-Cys-L-Asp, which used CDNB but not ETA as acceptor substrate. In general, GST 7-7 was better than GST 8-8 in utilizing these analogues as substrates, and glycyl analogues were better than gamma-glutamyl analogues as both substrates and inhibitors. These results are compared with those obtained earlier with GSH analogues and GST isoenzymes 1-1, 2-2, 3-3 and 4-4 [Adang, Brussee, Meyer, Coles, Ketterer, van der Gen & Mulder (1988) Biochem. J. 255, 721-724] and the implications with respect to the nature of their active sites are discussed. 相似文献

Rab7 is a small GTP-binding protein important in early to late endosome/lysosome vesicular transport in mammalian cells. We have isolated a Rab7 cDNA clone, OsRab7, from a cold-treated rice cDNA library by the subtraction screening method. The cDNA encodes a polypeptide of 206 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of about 23 kDa. Its predicted amino acid sequence shows significantly high identity with the sequences of other Rab7 proteins. His-tagged OsRab7 bound to radiolabeled GTPgammaS in a specific and stoichiometric manner. Biochemical and structural properties of the Rab7 wild type (WT) protein were compared to those of Q67L and T22N mutants. The detergent 3-([3-cholamidopropyl]dimethylammonio)-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPS) increased the guanine nucleotide binding and hydrolysis activities of Rab7WT. The OsRab7Q67L mutant showed much lower GTPase activity compared to the WT protein untreated with CHAPS, and the T22N mutant showed no GTP binding activity at all. The OsRab7Q67L mutant was constitutively active for guanine nucleotide binding while the T22N mutant (dominant negative) showed no guanine nucleotide binding activity. When bound to GTP, the Rab7WT and the Q67L mutants were protected from tryptic proteolysis. The cleavage pattern of the Rab7T22N mutant, however, was not affected by GTP addition. Northern and Western blot analyses suggested that OsRab7 is distributed in various tissues of rice. Furthermore, expression of a rice Rab7 gene was differentially regulated by various environmental stimuli such as cold, NaCl, dehydration, and ABA. In addition, subcellular localization of OsRab7 was investigated in the Arabidopsis protoplasts by a double-labeling experiment using GFP-fused OsRab7 and FM4-64. GFP-OsRab7 is localized to the vacuolar membrane, suggesting that OsRab7 is implicated in a vesicular transport to the vacuole in plant cells. 相似文献

Kieselguhr, bentonite, and montmorillonite were investigated as potential carriers of plantaricin Q7. Highest level of adsorption of plantaricin Q7 was obtained with montmorillonite. Meanwhile, visible inhibition zones were observed against Listeria monocytogenes for montmorillonite adsorbed with plantaricin Q7. Adsorption kinetics showed that the adsorption behaviour followed the pseudo‐first‐order and Weber's intra‐particle diffusion models, suggesting two steps had taken place during the adsorption process. X‐ray diffraction assays revealed that plantaricin Q7 was intercalated into the interlayer space of montmorillonites. Electrostatic, hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions proved to play important roles in the mechanisms of interaction between montmorillonite and plantaricin Q7, as shown by infrared spectroscopy analysis. In addition, plantaricin Q7 production was inhibited by feedback regulation with its high concentrations. In order to remove product feedback inhibition in plantaricin Q7 production, a strategy was implemented for its adsorption onto montmorillonite during fermentation. The final plantaricin Q7 output reached 3713.40 IU/mL during fermentation using montmorillonite to adsorb plantaricin Q7, 41.61% higher than that of non‐ montmorillonite. These results indicate that montmorillonites are suitable carriers for plantaricin Q7 adsorption, and the adsorption of plantaricin Q7 onto montmorillonite during fermentation could be a good method to increase final plantaricin Q7 production. 相似文献

As a further contribution to the synthesis of an insulin analogue with a stable A7-B7 interchain bond, the synthesis of A(8-21) by solution methods, and of B(9-25) as well as [7-(2,7-diaminosuberic acid)]B(1-8) by solid phase methods is described. In the latter compound, the amino group of the diaminosuberic acid residue was acylated with A(1-6), and the resulting "U-peptide" sequentially elongated with the C-terminal A- and finally B-chain sequences. The conversion of the product into the disulfide moiety gave a mixture which could not be resolved by currently available methods. However, the low biological activity of the crude product indicates that the A7-B7 disulfide bond is not crucially important for the activity of insulin. 相似文献

In order to localize the ubiquinone-binding site of complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase), a novel photoreactive ubiquinone analogue (Q0C7ArN3) has been synthesized. It is shown that the direct chemical precursor of this analogue (Q0C7ArNO2) and the analogue itself are accepted as substrates in an enzyme assay utilizing ubiquinone-depleted mitochondrial membranes of Neurospora crassa. The activity of the enzyme applying these derivatives is inhibited by 50% at a concentration of 9 and 20 microM rotenone. Photoaffinity labeling experiments were performed with both isolated complex I and whole mitochondrial membranes of N. crassa under various conditions. In each of these experiments a protein subunit with an apparent molecular mass of about 9.5 kDa was labeled with high specificity. Radioactive labeling was totally prevented by the addition of ubiquinone-2 at concentrations higher than 500 microM but was not affected by comparable concentrations of rotenone or other hydrophobic substances. In the labeling experiments using whole membranes, the labeling signal was dramatically increased in the presence of 1.5 mM NADH. These results strongly suggest that the ubiquinone analogue interacts specifically with the enzyme. 相似文献

Preeclampsia (PE) is a multisystem disease that affects the health of both the pregnant women and the fetus during pregnancy. Agonistic autoantibodies to the angiotensin II type I receptor (AT1-AA) play a significant role in the pathogenesis of PE. This study aimed to determine the effects of Angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) and its analogue AVE0991 on AT1-AA-induced PE model. Pregnant mice were divided into five groups: the normal pregnant group, AT1-AA-induced preeclampsia group, and AT1-AA-induced preeclampsia group treated with Losartan, Ang 1-7, and AVE0991, respectively. AT1-AA-induced PE model was established on gestational day 13 by tail intravenous injection of purified AT1-AA polyclonal antibody from serum of guinea pigs. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN), urine albumin and urinary creatinine were measured on day 18 of pregnancy. The systolic blood pressure (SBP) was measured from gestational day 13 to day 18. Renal structure changes were observed via light and electron microscopy. Compared with the normal pregnant group (NP group), AT1-AA-induced preeclampsia group (PE group) exhibited elevated blood pressure and proteinuria, consistent with the characteristics of PE. Ang 1-7 or AVE0991 treatment decreased blood pressure without showing renoprotective effects. The findings indicated that Ang 1-7 and its analogue reduced blood pressure but aggravated renal damage in AT1-AA-induced PE mice. 相似文献

To evaluate the role of charged residues facing a pore lumen in stability of channel structure and ion permeation, we studied electrical properties of ion channels formed by synthesized native alamethicins (Rf50 (alm-Q7Q18) and Rf30 (alm-Q7E18)) and their analogs with Glu-7 (alm-E7Q18 and alm-E7E18). The single-channel currents were measured over a pH range of 3.5 to 8.7 using planar bilayers of diphytanoyl PC. The peptides all showed multi-level current fluctuations in this pH range. At pH 3.5 the channels formed by the four peptides were similar to each other irrespective of the side chain differences at positions 7 and 18. The ionization of Glu-7 (E7) and Glu-18 (E18) above neutral pH reduced the relative probabilities of low-conductance states (levels 1 and 2) and increased those of high-conductance states (levels 4-6). The channel conductance of the peptides with E7 and/or E18, which was distinct from that of alm-Q7Q18, showed a marked pH-dependence, especially for low-conductance states. The ionization of E7 further reduced the stability of channel structure, altered the current-voltage curve from a superlinear relation to a sublinear one, and enhanced cation selectivity. These results indicate that ionized E7 strongly influences the channel structure and the ion permeation, in contrast to ionized E18. 相似文献

Identification of two major histocompatibility complex class Ib genes, Q7 and Q9, as the Ped gene in the mouse 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The Ped (preimplantation embryonic development) gene influences the rate of preimplantation embryonic development and subsequent embryonic survival. The protein product of the Ped gene, the Qa-2 protein, is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class Ib protein. There are two alleles of the Ped gene, fast (Qa-2 [+]) and slow (Qa-2 [-]). Qa-2 is encoded by four very similar MHC class Ib genes: Q6, Q7, Q8, and Q9. Recent research in our laboratory has shown that the Ped phenotype is potentially encoded by the Q7 and/or Q9 gene because the Q7 and Q9 genes, but not the Q6 or Q8 gene, are expressed during preimplantation mouse embryonic development. In this study we utilized microinjection of transgenes to assess the functional roles of both the Q7 and Q9 genes in control of the rate of preimplantation development. The Q7 gene, the Q9 gene, and a combination of the Q7 and Q9 genes were microinjected into Ped slow zygotes, and the Ped phenotype and cell surface expression of Qa-2 protein were assayed after a 72-h or 96-h incubation period. We found that the microinjected individual Q7 and Q9 genes increased the rate of preimplantation development. Simultaneous injection of the Q7 and Q9 genes did not have a synergistic effect on the Ped phenotype. Microinjection of the Q7 and/or Q9 genes resulted in protein expression in 10-25% of the microinjected embryos. These results show that both the Q7 and Q9 genes encode the mouse Ped phenotype. 相似文献

NADP(+)-specific glutamate dehydrogenase of Salmonella typhimurium was previously shown to react irreversibly at the coenzyme site with the nucleotide analogue 2-((4-bromo-2,3-dioxobutyl)thio)-1,N6-ethenoadenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate (2-BDB-T epsilon A 2',5'-DP) yielding a partially active enzyme, and inactivation was attributed to modification of the peptide Leu282-Cys-Glu-Ile-Lys286 (Bansal, A., Dayton, M.A., Zalkin, H., and Colman, R.F. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 9827-9835). Three mutant enzymes have now been engineered, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified: the single mutants C283I and E284Q and the double mutant C283I:E284Q. The wild-type and mutant enzymes have similar specific activities and Km values for alpha-ketoglutarate, ammonium ion, and NADPH, indicating that neither cysteine 283 nor glutamic acid 284 is essential for activity. The mutant enzyme E284Q, like wild-type glutamate dehydrogenase, is substantially inactivated by 2-BDB-T epsilon A 2',5'-DP. In contrast, the two cysteine mutant enzymes, C283I and C283I:E284Q, are not inactivated by 2-BDB-T epsilon A 2',5'-DP. Modified tryptic peptides with the sequence Leu-X-Glu(Gln)-Ile-Lys were isolated from wild-type or E284Q enzymes inactivated by 2-BDB-T epsilon A 2',5'-DP. This peptide was absent from digests of active wild-type enzyme modified in the presence of the protectant NADPH and from digests of active C283I enzyme after incubation with 2-BDB-T epsilon A 2',5'-DP. Although it is not required for catalytic activity, cysteine 283 is implicated by the results of the affinity labeling experiments as the reaction target of the nucleotide analogue and is located in the region of the coenzyme binding site. 相似文献

As part of the total synthesis of [A7,B7-L,L-2,7-diaminosuberoyl]-des-(B26-B30)-insulin B25-amide, an insulin analogue containing a non-cleavable bond between A- and B-chain, the chemical synthesis of the A-chain segments is described. The N-terminal sequence A(1-6), Boc-Gly-Ile-Val-Glu(OBut)-Gln-Cys(SBut)-NH-NH2, was synthesized in solution. The middle segment A(8-16), Ddz-Thr(But)-Ser(But)-Ile-Cys(SBut)-Ser(But)-Leu-Tyr- (But)-Gln-Leu-NH-NH2, was obtained by solid phase synthesis according to the Fmoc strategy. The C-terminal segment A(17-21), Bpoc-Glu(OBut)-Asn-Tyr-Cys(Acm)-Asn-OBut, was prepared in solution. 相似文献

The reduction of cytochrome c by the reduced form of the 6-decyl analogue of coenzyme Q follows first-order kinetics with respect to cytochrome c and increases in a linear manner with added mitochondrial protein. The activity is completely sensitive to antimycin A in whole cell extracts of yeast as well as in isolated mitochondria and fractionates with markers for the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. The presence of both cytochrome b and c1 in an approximately 2:1 ratio appears essential for enzymatic activity. Reduced coenzyme Q-cytochrome c reductase obeys Michaelis-Menten kinetics when assayed in mitochondria obtained from a yeast strain lacking coenzyme Q. Both reduced nitotinamide adenine dinucleotide and succinate:cytochrome c reductase activities were not detectable in six coenzyme Q deficient strains tested, but were restored after addition of the oxidized form of the coenzyme Q analogue. No marked difference in the concentration of the analogue required to restore the two activities was observed. 相似文献

Two side-chain cyclic lactam analogues of the 4-11 fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), Ac-[Nle4,D-Orn5,Glu8]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2 and Ac-[Nle4,D-Orn5,D-Phe7,Glu8]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2, were prepared on p-methylbenzhydrylamine resin by using a combination of N alpha-Boc and N alpha-Fmoc synthetic strategies with diphenyl phosphorazidate mediated cyclization. The melanotropin activities of these two analogues were examined and compared relative to those of alpha-MSH, Ac-[Nle4]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2, and Ac-[Nle4,D-Phe7]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2. In the frog (Rana pipiens) skin bioassay, the L-Phe7 17-membered ring cyclic analogue was slightly more potent than the linear Ac-[Nle4]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2 and exhibited prolonged melanotropic bioactivity (greater than or equal to 4 h). In this same assay, the D-Phe7 cyclic analogue was more than 100-fold less potent than the L-Phe cyclic analogue and was 10,000 times less potent than linear Ac-[Nle4,D-Phe7]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2. In the lizard skin (Anolis carolinensis) bioassay, the L-Phe7 cyclic analogue was 100-fold less potent than Ac-[Nle4]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2, while the D-Phe7 cyclic analogue was 10,000-fold less potent than both Ac-[Nle4]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2 and the D-Phe7 linear derivative Ac-[Nle4,D-Phe7]alpha-MSH4-11-NH2. The solution conformation of these two cyclic analogues in dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 was examined by 1D and 2D 500-MHz 1H NMR spectroscopy. Our analysis suggests an H bond stabilized C10 (or C13) turn for the D-Phe7 cyclic structure while the L-Phe7 analogue is more conformationally flexible.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

(D)-7-Iodo-N-(1-phosphonoethyl)-5-aminomethylquinoxaline-2,3 -dione (I-PAMQX), is a potent, in vivo active antagonist acting at the glycine binding site of the NMDA receptor complex. Radioiodinated [131I]I-PAMQX was prepared with good yields and high specific activity from its 7-bromo analogue. Biodistribution studies of [131I]I-PAMQX in mice showed a relatively slow clearance from the blood. The uptake of radioactivity was highest in the kidneys, moderate in the heart, lung, liver and bones, and low in the brain. 相似文献

The channel kinases TRPM6 and TRPM7 have recently been discovered to play important roles in Mg2+ and Ca2+ homeostasis, which is critical to both human health and cell viability. However, the molecular basis underlying these channels' unique Mg2+ and Ca2+ permeability and pH sensitivity remains unknown. Here we have created a series of amino acid substitutions in the putative pore of TRPM7 to evaluate the origin of the permeability of the channel and its regulation by pH. Two mutants of TRPM7, E1047Q and E1052Q, produced dramatic changes in channel properties. The I-V relations of E1052Q and E1047Q were significantly different from WT TRPM7, with the inward currents of 8- and 12-fold larger than TRPM7, respectively. The binding affinity of Ca2+ and Mg2+ was decreased by 50- to 140-fold in E1052Q and E1047Q, respectively. Ca2+ and Mg2+ currents in E1052Q were 70% smaller than those of TRPM7. Strikingly, E1047Q largely abolished Ca2+ and Mg2+ permeation, rendering TRPM7 a monovalent selective channel. In addition, the ability of protons to potentiate inward currents was lost in E1047Q, indicating that E1047 is critical to Ca2+ and Mg2+ permeability of TRPM7, and its pH sensitivity. Mutation of the corresponding residues in the pore of TRPM6, E1024Q and E1029Q, produced nearly identical changes to the channel properties of TRPM6. Our results indicate that these two glutamates are key determinants of both channels' divalent selectivity and pH sensitivity. These findings reveal the molecular mechanisms underpinning physiological/pathological functions of TRPM6 and TRPM7, and will extend our understanding of the pore structures of TRPM channels. 相似文献

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease caused by expansion of a polyglutamine [poly(Q)] tract in ATXN7, a subunit of the deubiquitinase (DUB) module (DUBm) in the SAGA complex. The effects of ATXN7-poly(Q) on DUB activity are not known. To address this important question, we reconstituted the DUBm in vitro with either wild-type ATXN7 or a pathogenic form, ATXN7-92Q NT, with 92 Q residues at the N terminus (NT). We found that both forms of ATXN7 greatly enhance DUB activity but that ATXN7-92Q NT is largely insoluble unless it is incorporated into the DUBm. Cooverexpression of DUBm components in human astrocytes also promoted the solubility of ATXN7-92Q, inhibiting its aggregation into nuclear inclusions that sequester DUBm components, leading to global increases in ubiquitinated H2B (H2Bub) levels. Global H2Bub levels were also increased in the cerebellums of mice in a SCA7 mouse model. Our findings indicate that although ATXN7 poly(Q) expansions do not change the enzymatic activity of the DUBm, they likely contribute to SCA7 by initiating aggregates that sequester the DUBm away from its substrates. 相似文献
