A low-molecular-weight cationic protein that can bind human and rabbit immunoglobulins G has been isolated from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis cells. This immunoglobulin binding protein (IBP) interacts with IgG Fc-fragment, the association constant of the resulting complex being 3.1 μM?1. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analysis of IBP revealed its molecular mass of 16.1 kDa, and capillary isoelectrofocusing analysis showed pI value of 9.2. N-Terminal sequence determination by Edman degradation revealed the sequence of the 15 terminal amino acid residues (ADKIAIVNVSSIFQ). Tryptic hydrolysate of IBP was subjected to MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for proteolytic peptide profiling. Based on the peptide fingerprint, molecular mass, pI, and N-terminal sequence and using bioinformatic resources, IBP was identified as Y. pseudotuberculosis periplasmic chaperone Skp. Using the method of comparative modeling a spatial model of Skp has been built. This model was then used for modeling of Skp complexes with human IgG1 Fc-fragment by means of molecular docking. 相似文献

The gene NCED1 encodes 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase, which catalyzes oxidative cleavage of 9-cis-epoxycarotenoids neoxanthin and violaxanthin to xanthoxin, a key step in the biosynthesis of abscisic acid (ABA) in higher plants. In the present study, the complete NCED1 of 1 917 bp was cloned and characterized from rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. N22) as no earlier reports were available for its characterization from the indica cultivar. The NCED1 had no intron and encoded a protein of 639 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 68.62 kD and pI of 6.07. The aliphatic index and grand average of hydropathicity were found to be 77.04 and -0.148, respectively. Multiple alignment analysis revealed that the sequence shared a high identity with the Oryza sativa japonica group (100 %) followed by Triticum aestivum (90 %), Hordeum vulgare (90 %), and Zea mays (89 %). The enzyme had a RPE65 domain of 476 amino acid residues. The RPE65 domain requires Fe(II) as a cofactor coordinated with 4 histidine residues and 3 glutamic acid residues. The phylogenic tree shows that NCED1 of japonica rice and NCED1 of indica rice were in the same group. They might have been evolved from a common ancestor. Analysis with a PSORT III tool shows that NCED is a chloroplastic protein. The real-time quantitative PCR and RNA-sequencing studies show that the expression of NCED1 was progressively reduced with increasing water stress, and a negative correlation between expression of OsNCED1 and severity of stress was established. Further, NCED1 expression negatively correlated with ABA accumulation under water stress whereas in some other species, its expression increased along with ABA accumulation. This might be due to feedback inhibition of the ABA biosynthesis in rice. 相似文献

From the surface of the dikaryotic mycelium of the xylotrophic basidiomycete Grifola frondosa 0917 a lectin has been isolated with a molecular mass of 68 ± 1 kDa, consisting of two subunits of 33–34 kDa each. The lectin
is a hydrophilic glycoprotein with the protein: glycan ratio of 3: 1. It exhibits high affinity to native rabbit erythrocytes
and to human erythrocytes of the 0 blood group, but not to trypsin-treated ones. The hemagglutination (HA) caused by lectin
was not blocked by any of the 25 tested mono-, di-, and amino sugars; it was also not blocked by some of glyco derivatives.

of amino acids with positively charged R groups, arginine, lysine, and histidine, as well as the complete absence of sulfurcontaining
amino acids, cysteine, and methionine. D-glucose and D-glucosamine were detected in the carbohydrate part.

Geraniol, the precursor of terpenoid indole alkaloids can be converted to the 10-hydroxy geraniol by the function of geraniol 10-hydroxylase. In our study, for the first time, a full-length cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) geraniol 10-hydroxylase (PgCYP76C9) cDNA was isolated and characterized from Panax ginseng Meyer. The gene has an open reading frame (ORF) of 1503 base pairs and encodes a precursor protein of 501 amino acids residues. The calculated molecular mass of the protein is approximately 56.3 kDa with a predicated isoelectric point of 8.45. Amino acid identities between PgG10H and other P450s of the CYP76 family in the database had revealed that the deduced amino acid of PgG10H sharing a higher sequence homology with geraniol 10-hydroxylase-like proteins encoded by Cinchona calisaya and Lonicera japonica. We implemented a molecular modeling method to evaluate the possible interaction of geraniol with PgG10H active site. Our finding showed that the geraniol was the potential ligand for PgG10H in P. ginseng. Expression of PgG10H gene was tissue-regulated and showed high expression in 3-year-old ginseng flowers and roots. Expression of PgG10H was differentially induced in ginseng, not only during Pseudomonas syringae infection and wounding but also after exposure to methyl jasmonate and salt stress. Furthermore, overexpression of the newly identified ginseng geraniol 10-hydroxylase P450 gene in Arabidopsis caused terpenoid indole alkaloid dihydrositsirikine production and also conferred enhanced resistance to P. syringae. 相似文献

Objectives
Two genes encoding two acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) isoenzymes have been identified in the marine yeast Rhodosporidium diobovatum MCCC 2A00023.Results
ACS1 encoded a polypeptide with a sequence of 578 amino acid residues, a predicted molecular weight of 63.73 kDa, and pI of 8.14, while the ACS2 encoded a polypeptide containing 676 amino acid residues with a deduced molecular mass of 75.61 kDa and a pI of 5.95. Biological activity of Acs1p and Acs2p was confirmed by heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. A 1.5-kb DNA fragment of the ACS1 gene and a 2.7-kb DNA fragment of the ACS2 gene were deleted using the RNA guide CRISPR-Cas9 system. The strain lacking ACS1 was unable to grow on acetate and ethanol media, while the ACS2 deletant was unable to grow on glucose medium. ACS1-ACS2 double mutants of R. diobovatum were non-viable.Conclusions
ACS isoenzymes are essential to the yeast metabolism, and other sources of ACSs cannot compensate for the lack of ACSs encoded by the two genes.6.

Tk1884, an open reading frame encoding α-amylase in Thermococcus kodakarensis, was cloned with the native signal sequence and expressed in Escherichia coli. Heterologous gene expression resulted in secretion of the recombinant protein to the extracellular culture medium. Extracellular α-amylase activity gradually increased after induction. Tk1884 was purified from the extracellular medium, and its molecular mass determined by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry indicated the cleavage of a few amino acids. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified Tk1884 was determined, which revealed that the signal peptide was cleaved between Ala26 and Ala27 by E. coli signal peptidase. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing an archaeal signal sequence recognized and cleaved by E. coli signal peptidase. 相似文献

A putative gene (gadlbhye1) encoding glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) was cloned from Lactobacillus brevis HYE1 isolated from kimchi, a traditional Korean fermented vegetable. The amino acid sequences of GADLbHYE1 showed 48% homology with the GadA family and 99% identity with the GadB family from L. brevis. The cloned GADLbHYE1 was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli using inducible expression vectors. The expressed recombinant GADLbHYE1 was successfully purified by Ni–NTA affinity chromatography, and had a molecular mass of 54 kDa with optimal hydrolysis activity at 55 °C and pH 4.0. Its thermal stability was determined to be higher than that of other GADs from L. brevis, based on its melting temperature (75.18 °C). Kinetic parameters including Km and Vmax values for GADLbHYE1 were 4.99 mmol/L and 0.224 mmol/L/min, respectively. In addition, the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid in E. coli BL21 harboring gadlbhye1/pET28a was increased by adding pyridoxine as a cheaper coenzyme. 相似文献

As one of the most important phytohormones, the abscisic acid (ABA) is often used to breed stress-tolerant crop lines with both higher yields and active ingredient contents. In higher plants, the 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (NCED) has been found to be a regulatory enzyme involved in ABA biosynthesis. In research, the novel gene SmNCED3 was isolated from S. miltiorrhiza. The open reading frame of SmNCED3 was 1725-bp, and it was encoding 574 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 63,822 kDa, which was verified by the expression of SmNCED3 in E. coli. The deduced SmNCED3 amino acid sequence had high sequence homology with NCED sequences from other plants and contained a putative chloroplast transit targeting signal peptide at its N terminus. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that SmNCED3 had a closer affinity to NCED3 in Arabidopsis thaliana (AtNCED3). The 1732-bp 5′ flanking sequence of SmNCED3 was also cloned. It contained several phytohormone response elements, biotic or abiotic stress-related elements, and plant development-related elements. Real-time PCR revealed that SmNCED3 was highly expressed in leaves, and was strongly induced by exogenous ABA. A subcellular localization experiment indicated that SmNCED3 was located in chloroplast stroma, chloroplast membranes, and thylakoid membranes. The overexpression of SmNCED3 promoted ABA accumulation. These results indicated that SmNCED3 might be a rate-limiting gene regulating ABA biosynthesis, and improving abiotic stresses tolerance and active ingredient contents in plants. 相似文献

A farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase gene was cloned from Inonotus obliquus, designated IOFPS. The IOFPS cDNA contained an open reading frame (ORF) of 972 bps, encoding a protein of 324 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of IOFPS revealed moderate homology with that of other fungi, and contained four conserved domains. Phylogenetic analysis showed that IOFPS belonged to the basidiomycete group. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis indicated that the IOFPS gene was successfully expressed in a yeast recombinant cell. Enzyme catalytic experiments were carried out with purified protein (IOFPS protein), which was isolated and purified from recombinant yeast cells. The special hydrolysis product (farnesol) was then detected by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS). These results indicated that the cloned cDNA encoded a farnesyl diphosphate synthase and the IOFPS protein maintained catalytic activity in vitro. 相似文献

Symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae VF39 secrete an acidic heteropolysaccharide, the biosynthesis of which involves the stage of polyprenyl diphosphate octasaccharide formation with its carbohydrate fragment corresponding to the repeating polymer unit. The amino acid analysis of the product of the pssA gene, we have earlier identified, showed its homology to bacterial polyisoprenyl phosphate hexose 1-phosphate transferases catalyzing the formation of phosphodiester bonds between polyprenyl phosphates and hexose 1-phosphates, whose donors are nucleotide sugars. The immunoblotting demonstrated that Rhizobium cells synthesize a protein with a molecular mass of 25 kDa, which implies the translation of the open reading frame occurring from the second initiating codon followed by the protein processing. It was shown that PssA is an integral membrane-bound protein involved in glucose 1-phosphate transfer from UDP-glucose to polyprenyl phosphate to form polyprenyl diphosphate glucose. These results suggest that the pssA gene encodes UDP-glucose:polyprenyl phosphate-glucosyl phosphotransferase. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of the DIP1 gene located in the 20A4-5 region has been performed from the following strains with the flamenco phenotype: flam SS (SS) and flam MS (MS) characterized by a high transposition rate of retrotransposon gypsy (mdg4), flam py + (P) carrying the insertion of a construction based on the P element into the region of the flamenco gene, and flamenco +. The results of restriction analysis and sequencing cloned DNA fragments has shown that strains flam SS , flam MS considerably differ from flam py + (P), and flamenco + in the structure of DIP1. Strains flam SS and flam MS have no DraI restriction site at position 1765 in the coding region of the gene, specifically, in the domain determining the signal of the nuclear localization of the DIP1 protein. This mutation has been found to consist in a nucleotide substitution in the recognition site of DraI restriction endonuclease, which is transformed from TTTAAA into TTTAAG and, hence, is not recognized by the enzyme. This substitution changes codon AAA into AAG and is translationally insignificant, because both triplets encode the same amino acid, lysine. The DIP1 gene of strains flam SS and flam MS has been found to contain a 182-bp insertion denoted IdSS (insertion in DIP1 strain SS); it is located in the second intron of the gene. The IdSS sequence is part of the open reading frame encoding the putative transposase of the mobile genetic element HB1 belonging to the Tc1/mariner family. This insertion is presumed to disturb the conformations of DNA and the chromosome, in particular, by forming loops, which alters the expression of DIP1 and, probably, neighboring genes. In strains flamenco + and flam py + (P), the IdSS insertion within the HB1 sequence is deleted. The deletion encompasses five C-terminal amino acid residues of the conserved domain and the entire C-terminal region of the putative HB1 transposase. The obtained data suggest that DIP1 is involved in the control of gypsy transpositions either directly or through interaction with other elements of the genome. 相似文献

Here, we report for the first time the genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the molecular chaperone BiP genes in Citrus. Six genes encoding the conserved protein domain family GPR78/BiP/KAR2 were identified in the genome of Citrus sinensis and C. clementina. Two of them, named here as CsBiP1 and CsBiP2, were classified as true BiPs based on their deduced amino acid sequences. Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequences of CsBiP1 and CsBiP2 with BiP homologs from soybean and Arabidopsis showed that they contain all the conserved functional motifs of BiPs. Analysis of the promoter region of CsBiPs revealed the existence of cis-acting regulatory sequences involved in abiotic, heat-shock, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress responses. Publicly available RNA-seq data indicated that CsBiP1 is abundantly expressed in leaf, flower, fruit, and callus, whereas CsBiP2 expression is rarely detected in any tissues under normal conditions. Comparative quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis of expression of these genes between C. sinensis grafted on the drought-tolerant “Rangpur” lime (C. limonia) and -sensitive “Flying Dragon” trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata) rootstocks showed that CsBiP1 was upregulated by drought stress on the former but downregulated on the latter, whereas the CsBiP2 mRNA levels were downregulated on drought-stressed “Flying Dragon,” but remained constant on “Rangpur.” CsBiP2 upregulation was only observed in C. sinensis seedlings subjected to osmotic and cold treatments. Taken together, these results indicate the existence of two highly conserved BiP genes in Citrus that are differentially regulated in the different tissues and in response to abiotic stresses. 相似文献

A novel lipid transfer protein called Ec-LTP was isolated from resting caryopsis of weed barnyard grass Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) Beauv.; its molecular weight, amino acid content and N-terminal amino acid sequence were determined. Ec-LTP was a 9150 D protein, containing eight cysteine residues, which formed four disulfide bonds. The isolated protein could significantly inhibit the development of pathogenic fungi Phytophthora infestans and Helminthosporium sativum, causing the late blight of potato and tomato and the root rot of herbs, respectively. 相似文献

Volatile phenols are aromatic compounds produced by some yeasts of the genus Brettanomyces as defense against the toxicity of hydroxycinnamic acids (p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid and caffeic acid). The origin of these compounds in winemaking involves the sequential action of two enzymes: coumarate decarboxylase and vinylphenol reductase. The first one converts hydroxycinnamic acids into hydroxystyrenes, which are then reduced to ethyl derivatives by vinylphenol reductase. Volatile phenols derived from p-coumaric acid (4-vinylphenol and 4-ethylphenol) have been described as the major contributors to self-defeating aromas associated with stable, gouache, wet mouse, etc., which generates large economic losses in the wine industry. The gene responsible for the production of 4-vinylphenol from p-coumaric acid has been identified as PAD1, which encodes a phenylacrylic acid decarboxylase. PAD1 has been described for many species, among them Candida albicans, Candida dubliniensis, Debaryomyces hansenii and Pichia anomala. In Brettanomyces bruxellensis LAMAP2480, a 666 bp reading frame (DbPAD) encodes a coumarate decarboxylase. Recent studies have reported the existence of a new reading frame belonging to DbPAD called DbPAD2 of 531 bp, which could encode a protein with similar enzymatic activity to PAD1. The present study confirmed that the transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain BY4722 with reading frame DbPAD2 under the control of the B. bruxellensis ACT1 promoter, encodes an enzyme with coumarate decarboxylase activity. This work has provided deeper insight into the origin of aroma defects in wine due to contamination by Brettanomyces spp. 相似文献

Background
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a highly complex multi-system disease caused by primary abnormalities in the membrane cytoskeletal protein dystrophin. Besides progressive skeletal muscle degeneration, this neuromuscular disorder is also associated with pathophysiological perturbations in many other organs including the liver. To determine potential proteome-wide alterations in liver tissue, we have used a comparative and mass spectrometry-based approach to study the dystrophic mdx-4cv mouse model of dystrophinopathy.Methods
The comparative proteomic profiling of mdx-4cv versus wild type liver extracts was carried out with an Orbitrap Fusion Tribrid mass spectrometer. The distribution of identified liver proteins within protein families and potential protein interaction patterns were analysed by systems bioinformatics. Key findings on fatty acid binding proteins were confirmed by immunoblot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy.Results
The proteomic analysis revealed changes in a variety of protein families, affecting especially fatty acid, carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism, biotransformation, the cellular stress response and ion handling in the mdx-4cv liver. Drastically increased protein species were identified as fatty acid binding protein FABP5, ferritin and calumenin. Decreased liver proteins included phosphoglycerate kinase, apolipoprotein and perilipin. The drastic change in FABP5 was independently verified by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence microscopy.Conclusions
The proteomic results presented here indicate that the intricate and multifaceted pathogenesis of the mdx-4cv model of dystrophinopathy is associated with secondary alterations in the liver affecting especially fatty acid transportation. Since FABP5 levels were also shown to be elevated in serum from dystrophic mice, this protein might be a useful indicator for monitoring liver changes in X-linked muscular dystrophy.19.

The cytochrome b 6 f complex of oxygenic photosynthesis produces substantial levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). It has been observed that the ROS production rate by b 6 f is 10–20 fold higher than that observed for the analogous respiratory cytochrome bc1 complex. The types of ROS produced (O2??, 1O2, and, possibly, H2O2) and the site(s) of ROS production within the b 6 f complex have been the subject of some debate. Proposed sources of ROS have included the heme b p , PQ p ?? (possible sources for O2??), the Rieske iron–sulfur cluster (possible source of O2?? and/or 1O2), Chl a (possible source of 1O2), and heme c n (possible source of O2?? and/or H2O2). Our working hypothesis is that amino acid residues proximal to the ROS production sites will be more susceptible to oxidative modification than distant residues. In the current study, we have identified natively oxidized amino acid residues in the subunits of the spinach cytochrome b 6 f complex. The oxidized residues were identified by tandem mass spectrometry using the MassMatrix Program. Our results indicate that numerous residues, principally localized near p-side cofactors and Chl a, were oxidatively modified. We hypothesize that these sites are sources for ROS generation in the spinach cytochrome b 6 f complex. 相似文献
