橡胶树形成层组织的酵母双杂交cDNA文库构建及HbHDA6互作蛋白筛选

次生乳管是天然橡胶合成和贮存的场所,是由橡胶树树干树皮中维管形成层细胞分裂分化而来。次生乳管的数量与天然橡胶产量直接相关,而这些乳管的数量取决于形成层分化次生乳管的频率(乳管分化能力),是橡胶树产量育种的主要指标。前期研究中,我们发现组蛋白去乙酰化酶(HDA)抑制剂曲古抑菌素A(TSA)能诱导橡胶树乳管分化且组蛋白去乙酰化酶基因(HbHDA6)能够参与橡胶树乳管分化调控。由于组蛋白乙酰化修饰调控橡胶树次生乳管分化的分子机制尚未阐明,因此该文使用冠菌素(COR)诱导橡胶树形成层分化产生次生乳管的实验系统,以分离形成层组织为材料,构建酵母双杂交cDNA文库,以HbHDA6基因为诱饵来筛选酵母双杂交文库,确定与HbHDA6相互作用的蛋白。结果表明：(1)利用Gateway技术构建的均一化COR诱导橡胶树形成层组织的酵母双杂交cDNA文库,初级文库的容量为6.34×10⁶ CFU·mL^-1,总单克隆数为1.27×10⁷,文库重组率为100%;次级文库的容量为7.72×10⁶ CFU·mL^-1

Screening of proteins that interact with human thrombopoietin receptor c-Mpl using yeast two-hybrid system

Thrombopoietin (TPO) is the major cytokine involved in platelet production and exerts its effects via the receptor c-Mpl. The yeast two-hybrid system has been used to screen the proteins interacting with c-Mpl. First, the cDNA fragment of c-Mpl intracellular domain was cloned into two-hybrid vector pAS2, and the resulting plasmid is designated as pASMM. Then a human placenta cDNA library was screened using the pASMM as a target plasmid. Seven positive clones were isolated from 150 000 independent transformants. Sequence analysis of one of the positive clones demonstrates that a part of coding sequence of vimentin from 611 bp to 3′ end and flanking non-translation region was obtained. Therefore, there is an interaction between vimentin and TPO receptor. The results suggest that cytoskeletal protein may play an important role in TPO signal transduction pathway.

Non-erythroid beta spectrin interacting proteins and their effects on spectrin tetramerization

With yeast two-hybrid methods, we used a C-terminal fragment (residues 1697–2145) of non-erythroid beta spectrin (βII-C), including the region involved in the association with alpha spectrin to form tetramers, as the bait to screen a human brain cDNA library to identify proteins interacting with βII-C. We applied stringent selection steps to eliminate false positives and identified 17 proteins that interacted with βII-C (IP_βII-C s). The proteins include a fragment (residues 38–284) of “THAP domain containing, apoptosis associated protein 3, isoform CRA g”, “glioma tumor suppressor candidate region gene 2” (residues 1-478), a fragment (residues 74–442) of septin 8 isoform c, a fragment (residues 704–953) of “coatomer protein complex, subunit beta 1, a fragment (residues 146–614) of zinc-finger protein 251, and a fragment (residues 284–435) of syntaxin binding protein 1. We used yeast three-hybrid system to determine the effects of these βII-C interacting proteins as well as of 7 proteins previously identified to interact with the tetramerization region of non-erythroid alpha spectrin (IP_αII-N s) [1] on spectrin tetramer formation. The results showed that 3 IP_βII-C s were able to bind βII-C even in the presence of αII-N, and 4 IP_αII-N s were able to bind αII-N in the presence of βII-C. We also found that the syntaxin binding protein 1 fragment abolished αII-N and βII-C interaction, suggesting that this protein may inhibit or regulate non-erythroid spectrin tetramer formation.

A screen for co-factors of Six3

The vertebrate Six3 gene a homeobox gene of the Six-family, plays a crucial role in early eye and forebrain development. Here we report the isolation of candidate factors that interact with Six3 in a yeast two-hybrid screen. Among these are two basic helix loop helix (bHLH) domain containing proteins. Biochemical analysis reveals that the bHLH proteins ATH5, ATH3, NEUROD as well as ASH1 interact specifically with XSix3. By defining the interacting domains we show that the bHLH domain of NEUROD interacts with the SIX domain of XSix3. The co-expression of the interacting molecules during late retina determination/differentiation suggests a new role for Six3 and the respective interaction partner also in these late steps of eye development.     

Construction of a recombinant yeast strain converting xylose and glucose to ethanol

Candida shehatae gene xyl1 and Pichia stipitis gene xyl2, encoding xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XD) respectively, were amplified by PCR. The genes xyl1 and xyl2 were placed under the control of promoter GAL in vector pYES2 to construct the recombinant expression vector pYES2-P12. Subsequently the vector pYES2-P12 was transformed into S. cerevisiae YS58 by LiAc to produce the recombinant yeast YS58-12. The alcoholic ferment indicated that the recombinant yeast YS58-12 could convert xylose to ethanol with the xylose consumption rate of 81.3%. __________ Translated from Microbiology, 2006, 33(3): 104–108 [译自:微生物学通报]     

Latent transforming growth factor β-binding protein-3 and fibulin-1C interact with the extracellular domain of the heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor precursor

Background  

The membrane-bound cell-surface precursor and soluble forms of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) contribute to many cellular developmental processes. The widespread occurrence of HB-EGF in cell and tissue types has led to observations of its role in such cellular and tissue events as tumor formation, cell migration, extracellular matrix formation, wound healing, and cell adherence. Several studies have reported the involvement of such extracellular matrix proteins as latent transforming growth factor β-binding protein, TGF-β, and fibulin-1 in some of these processes. To determine whether HB-EGF interacts with extracellular matrix proteins we used the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF in a yeast two-hybrid system to screen a monkey kidney cDNA library. cDNA clones containing nucleotide sequences encoding domains of two proteins were obtained and their derived amino acid sequences were evaluated.
