生命系统与非生命系统的差别是认识生命本质的一个重要问题.本文提出了对应关系的概念及总的对应式,认为对应关系是生命系统分子间的基本关系,决定了生命系统的主要性质,是生命系统与非生命系统的重要差别. 对应关系按照分子集合的数量可分为简单对应关系和复杂对应关系. 按照功能的不同可分为对应转换、对应催化、对应转运、对应转导、对应免疫等多种对应关系. 对应关系通过功能上的相互作用还形成了相互协作的具有调控作用的对应关系网络.本文重点介绍了前4种基本的对应关系及相应的对应式,并就对应关系的形成与蛋白质多样性的关系、对生命系统的意义及存在的其它问题进行了初步的讨论.  相似文献

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) plays an important role in clinical diagnosis and therapeutics. Meanwhile, the consensus binding site (CBS) on the Fc domain of IgG is responsible for ligand recognition, especially for Fc‐specific ligands. In this study, molecular simulation methods were used to investigate molecular interactions between the CBS of the Fc domain and seven natural Fc‐specific ligands. The analysis on the binding energy of the Fc–ligand complex indicated that hydrophobic interactions provide the main driving force for the Fc–ligand binding processes. The hot spots on the ligands and Fc were identified with the computational alanine scanning approach. It was found that the residues of tryptophan and tyrosine on the ligands have significant contributions for the Fc–ligand binding, while Met252, Ile253, Asn434, His435, and Tyr436 are the key residues of Fc. Moreover, two binding modes based on tryptophan or tyrosine were summarized and constructed according to the pairwise interaction analysis. Guidelines for the rational design of CBS‐specific ligands with high affinity and specificity were proposed. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Theoretical and experimental studies have shown that the large desolvation penalty required for polar and charged groups frequently precludes their involvement in electrostatic interactions that contribute strongly to net stability in the folding or binding of proteins in aqueous solution near room temperature. We have previously developed a theoretical framework for computing optimized electrostatic interactions and illustrated use of the algorithm with simplified geometries. Given a receptor and model assumptions, the method computes the ligand-charge distribution that provides the most favorable balance of desolvation and interaction effects on binding. In this paper the method has been extended to treat complexes using actual molecular shapes. The barnase-barstar protein complex was investigated with barnase treated as a target receptor. The atomic point charges of barstar were varied to optimize the electrostatic binding free energy. Barnase and natural barstar form a tight complex (K(d) approximately 10(-14) M) with many charged and polar groups near the interface that make this a particularly relevant system for investigating the role of electrostatic effects on binding. The results show that sets of barstar charges (resulting from optimization with different constraints) can be found that give rise to relatively large predicted improvements in electrostatic binding free energy. Principles for enhancing the effect of electrostatic interactions in molecular binding in aqueous environments are discussed in light of the optima. Our findings suggest that, in general, the enhancements in electrostatic binding free energy resulting from modification of polar and charged groups can be substantial. Moreover, a recently proposed definition of electrostatic complementarity is shown to be a useful tool for examining binding interfaces. Finally, calculational results suggest that wild-type barstar is closer to being affinity optimized than is barnase for their mutual binding, consistent with the known roles of these proteins.  相似文献

昆虫蜕皮是一个由PTTH启始的、激素介导的基因序列表达和相互作用的级联反应过程。阐明昆虫蜕皮的分子机理,不仅可以解释发育生物学的科学问题,为害虫控制提供新的思路,还可以从中发现新的可资生产应用的分子。作者通过蛋白质组学方法从棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigera Hubner蜕皮幼虫鉴定到30个差异表达的蛋白质。通过抑制性消减杂交技术,从棉铃虫蜕皮幼虫、变态决定幼虫和5龄取食幼虫鉴定到100个表达序列标签(EST)。证明其中的11个EST在蜕皮或变态时差异表达。通过RT-PCR方法克隆棉铃虫激素接受子3基因,研究该基因在发育中的表达模式。用该基因构建具有绿色荧光蛋白标记和多角体蛋白的基因重组病毒(AcMNPV-GFP-HHR3-Polh)。实验结果表明,AcMNPV-GFPHHR3-Polh病毒可以通过注射或口服感染棉铃虫,导致棉铃虫幼虫非正常蜕皮、生长延缓、半数存活时间下降。该研究显示昆虫蜕皮功能基因在害虫控制中有很好的应用前景。蜕皮功能基因的表达与调控、蜕皮激素介导的信号转导通路、变态过程中组织解体和重建的分子机理、激素调控基因顺序表达的分子机理、变态起始因子、JH受体等是本领域今后的主要研究方向。  相似文献

For three-dimensional understanding of the mechanisms that control potency and selectivity of the ligand binding at the atomic level, we have analysed opioid receptor-ligand interaction based on the receptor's 3D model. As a first step, we have constructed molecular models for the multiple opioid receptor subtypes using bacteriorhodopsin as a template. The S-activated dihydromorphine derivatives should serve as powerful tools in mapping the three-dimensional structure of the μ opioid receptor, including the nature of the agonist-mediated conformational change that permits G protein-coupling to ‘second messenger’ effector molecules, and in identifying specific ligand-binding contacts with the μ opioid receptor. The analyses of the interactions of some opioid ligands with the predicted ligand binding sites are consistent with the results of the affinity labeling experiments.  相似文献

The origin of the difference between the equilibrium (affinity) constants of ligand-receptor binding in bulk solution and at a solid-solution interface is discussed in terms of Gibbsian interfacial thermodynamics. It results that the difference is determined by the surface work that the ligand-receptor interaction spends to accommodate surface binding, and in turn that the value of the surface equilibrium constant (strongly) depends on the surface that confines the event. This framework consistently describes a wide set of experimental observations of DNA surface hybridization, correctly predicting that within the surface work window for DNA hybridization, that ranges from -90 to 75 kJ mol(-1), the ratio between surface and bulk equilibrium constants ranges from 10(-16) to 10(13), spanning 29 orders of magnitude.  相似文献

We present a new concept of synthesis for preparation of molecularly imprinted polymers using a functionalized initiator to replace the traditional functional monomer. Using propranolol as a model template, a carboxyl-functionalized radical initiator was demonstrated to lead to high-selectivity polymer particles prepared in a standard precipitation polymerization system. When a single enantiomer of propranolol was used as template, the imprinted polymer particles exhibited clear chiral selectivity in an equilibrium binding experiment. Unlike the previous molecular imprinting systems where the active free radicals can be distant from the template-functional monomer complex, the method reported in this work makes sure that the actual radical polymerization takes place in the vicinity of the template-associated functional groups. The success of using functional initiator to synthesize molecularly imprinted polymers brings in new possibilities to improve the functional performance of molecularly imprinted synthetic receptors.  相似文献

The binding between four matrices (beaded cellulose, cellulose acetate, cellulose triacetate and Sepharose CL-6B) and beaded cellulose derivatized with a thiacarbocyanine dye with 5'-mononucleotides is investigated by Saturation Transfer Difference Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (STD-NMR) technique. This procedure intends to identify unspecific interactions between 5'-mononucleotides and matrices commonly used in affinity chromatography systems and also clarify the contribution of a thiacarbocyanine dye immobilized onto cellulose beads in a biorecognition process. The differences between non-derivatized and derivatized beaded cellulose evidence the contribution of thiacarbocyanine dye in the observed interaction. STD-NMR experiments show that Sepharose CL- 6B interact less with the 5'-mononucleotides comparatively with beaded cellulose. Indeed, beaded cellulose shows nonspecific interactions with almost all 5'-mononucleotides that compromises the specificity of the interaction between the thiacarbocyanine dye immobilized with the 5'-mononucleotides. The cellulose matrices where the hydroxyl groups are replaced by acetate and triacetate groups do not exhibit binding response to the 5'- mononucleotides, whereas the thiacarbocyanine dye contribution is evidenced by the reinforcement of the interactions with the sugar moiety of 5'-GMP and 5'-UMP and with base of 5'-AMP, 5'-CMP and 5'-TMP. This screening of the nucleotide atoms involved in the binding to the supports can be very useful in chromatography evaluations in which dye-affinity chromatography supports may be used, such as purification of nucleic acids.  相似文献

A series of 12 chiral arylcarboxylic acids were chromatographed on an immobilized human serum albumin chiral stationary phase (HSA-CSP). The effects of solute structure on chromatographic retentions and enantioselective separations were examined by linear regression analysis and the construction of quantitative structure-enantioselective retention relationships. Competitive displacement studies were also conducted using R-ibuprofen as the displacing agent. The results indicate that the enantioselective retention of the solutes takes place at the indole-benzodiazepine site (site II) on the HSA molecule and that chiral recognition is affected by the hydrophobicity and steric volume of the solutes. The displacement studies also identified a cooperative allosteric interaction induced by the binding of R-ibuprofen to site II. Chirality 9:178–183, 1997. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

The reversible phosphorylation of proteins regulates many biological processes. Despite the technological advances in the enrichment and detection of phosphorylated proteins, the currently available techniques still struggle with the complexity of the human proteome. The aim of this review is to highlight the molecular recognition elements of the interaction between phosphorylated proteins and peptides and pTyr or pSer/Thr-binding domains. The identification of the recognition features of the naturally occurring pTyr- and pSer/Thr-binding domains can contribute to an understanding of the molecular aspects of the affinity and specificity for phosphorylated residues. This might inspire the design of small \"biomimetic\" molecules with potential applications in assessing the extent of the phosphoproteome using affinity-based strategies.  相似文献
