Factor C, a serine protease zymogen involved in innate immune responses in horseshoe crabs, is known to be autocatalytically activated on the surface of bacterial lipopolysaccharides, but the molecular mechanism of this activation remains unknown. In this study, we show that wild-type factor C expressed in HEK293S cells exhibits a lipopolysaccharide-induced activity equivalent to that of native factor C. Analysis of the N-terminal addition, deletion, or substitution mutants shows that the N-terminal Arg residue and the distance between the N terminus and the tripartite of lipopolysaccharide-binding site are essential factors for autocatalytic activation, and that the positive charge of the N terminus may interact with an acidic amino acid(s) of the molecule to convert the zymogen into an active form. Chemical cross-linking experiments indicate that the N terminus is required to form a complex of the factor C molecules in a sufficiently close vicinity to be chemically cross-linked on the surface of lipopolysaccharides. We propose a molecular mechanism of the autocatalytic activation of the protease zymogen on lipopolysaccharides functioning as a platform to induce specific protein-protein interaction between the factor C molecules. 相似文献

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) hold great promise for immunoprophylaxis and the suppression of viremia in HIV‐positive individuals. Several studies have demonstrated that plants as Nicotiana benthamiana are suitable hosts for the generation of protective anti‐HIV‐1 antibodies. However, the production of the anti‐HIV‐1 bNAbs 2F5 and PG9 in N. benthamiana is associated with their processing by apoplastic proteases in the complementarity‐determining‐region (CDR) H3 loops of the heavy chains. Here, it is shown that apoplastic proteases can also cleave the CDR H3 loop of the bNAb 2G12 when the unusual domain exchange between its heavy chains is prevented by the replacement of Ile19 with Arg. It is demonstrated that CDR H3 proteolysis leads to a strong reduction of the antigen‐binding potencies of 2F5, PG9, and 2G12‐I19R. Inhibitor profiling experiments indicate that different subtilisin‐like serine proteases account for bNAb fragmentation in the apoplast. Differential scanning calorimetry experiments corroborate that the antigen‐binding domains of wild‐type 2G12 and 4E10 are more compact than those of proteolysis‐sensitive antibodies, thus shielding their CDR H3 regions from proteolytic attack. This suggests that the extent of proteolytic inactivation of bNAbs in plants is primarily dictated by the steric accessibility of their CDR H3 loops. 相似文献

An expression system for aqualysin I from Thermus aquaticus YT-1, a thermophilic serine protease belonging to the proteinase K family, in Escherichia coli is available, but the efficiency of production has been rather low for detailed analysis of the product. We developed a maltose biding protein (MBP)-fused proaqualysin I expression plasmid (pMAQ-c2Δ) in which MBP is attached to the N-terminus of proaqualysin I. MBP appeared effectively to suppress the folding-promoting activity of the N-terminal propeptide when the bacteria were grown at 30 °C, leading to a massive accumulation of fusion aqualysin I precursor. The precursor was converted efficiently to mature aqualysin I by heat treatment at 70 °C, enabling us to obtain 40 times more aqualysin I than is available using expression systems such as pAQNΔC105. By analyzing the product of the pMAQ-c2Δ-derived inactive mutant expression vector, pMAQ-S222A, it was confirmed that aqualysin I was initially expressed as a whole fusion protein and then processed autocatalytically. 相似文献

FGF21 is a stress-induced hormone with potent anti-obesity, insulin-sensitizing, and hepatoprotective properties. Although proteolytic cleavage of recombinant human FGF21 in preclinical species has been observed previously, the regulation of endogenously produced FGF21 is not well understood. Here we identify fibroblast activation protein (FAP) as the enzyme that cleaves and inactivates human FGF21. A selective chemical inhibitor, immunodepletion, or genetic deletion of Fap stabilized recombinant human FGF21 in serum. In addition, administration of a selective FAP inhibitor acutely increased circulating intact FGF21 levels in cynomolgus monkeys. On the basis of our findings, we propose selective FAP inhibition as a potential therapeutic approach to increase endogenous FGF21 activity for the treatment of obesity, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and related metabolic disorders. 相似文献

Extracellular accumulation of high molecular weight DNA was further studied using Pseudomonas species. More efficient production was obtained by the use of glucose-grown seed culture and by controlling the broth-pH at around 6.0 for first 24 hr and then around 8.0 during the fermentation. The maximum yield was 5 to 6 g per liter of the broth culture, which corresponded to 10-fold of that reported in the previous work.Purified DNA (4 × 106 daltons) was obtained successfully by applying an aqueous biphase system of dextran-polyethyleneglycol and dextranase.Significant release of DNA occurred only with cell lysis of H-paraffin-grown bacteria. The primary cause of rapid lysis was explained by the exhaustion of cellular glucose pool. Relation of DNA accumulation to the effect of rhamnolipids on cell membrane was also investigated. 相似文献

Lasso peptide isopeptidase is an enzyme that specifically hydrolyzes the isopeptide bond of lasso peptides, rendering these peptides linear. To carry out a detailed structure-activity analysis of the lasso peptide isopeptidase AtxE2 from Asticcacaulis excentricus, we solved NMR structures of its substrates astexin-2 and astexin-3. Using in vitro enzyme assays, we show that the C-terminal tail portion of these peptides is dispensable with regards to isopeptidase activity. A collection of astexin-2 and astexin-3 variants with alanine substitutions at each position within the ring and the loop was constructed, and we showed that all of these peptides except for one were cleaved by the isopeptidase. Thus, much like the lasso peptide biosynthetic enzymes, lasso peptide isopeptidase has broad substrate specificity. Quantitative analysis of the cleavage reactions indicated that alanine substitutions in loop positions of these peptides led to reduced cleavage, suggesting that the loop is serving as a recognition element for the isopeptidase. 相似文献

Enterovirus A71(EV-A71) is one of the etiological pathogens leading to hand, foot, and mouth disease(HFMD), which can cause severe neurological complications. The neuropathogenesis of EV-A71 infection is not well understood. The mislocalization and aggregation of TAR DNA-binding protein 43(TDP-43) is the pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS). However, whether TDP-43 was impacted by EV-A71 infection is unknown. This study demonstrated that TDP-43 was cleaved during EV-A71 infection. The cleavage of TDP-43 requires EV-A71 replication rather than the activated caspases due to viral infection. TDP-43 is cleaved by viral protease 3 C between the residues 331 Q and332 S, while mutated TDP-43(Q331 A) was not cleaved. In addition, mutated 3 C which lacks the protease activity failed to induce TDP-43 cleavage. We also found that TDP-43 was translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and the mislocalization of TDP-43 was induced by viral protease 2 A rather than 3 C. Taken together, we demonstrated that TDP-43 was cleaved by viral protease and translocated to the cytoplasm during EV-A71 infection, implicating the possible involvement of TDP-43 in the pathogenesis of EV-A71 infection. 相似文献

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein (LBP) is an acute-phase protein involved in the host’s response to endotoxin and
mainly synthesized and secreted to the blood by the liver. But in addition, LBP is also made by extrahepatic cells, including
the enterocyte-like cell line Caco-2. To study in closer detail the synthesis and storage of LBP in the intestinal mucosal
epithelium, we performed an immunolocalization of LBP in mouse small intestine. By immunofluorescence microscopy, an antibody
recognizing the 58–60 kDa protein of LBP distinctly labeled a small population of cells located deep into the crypts. This
cell population was also positive for lysozyme and α-defensin 4, identifying Paneth cells as the main intestinal LBP-producing
cells. By immunogold electron microscopy, intense labeling was observed in the secretory granules of these cells. We conclude
that Paneth cells express LBP together with other proteins acting in the innate immune response of the gut, such as lysozyme,
defensins and intelectin. 相似文献

Lipid A in LPS activates innate immunity through the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-MD-2 complex on host cells. Variation in lipid A has significant consequences for TLR4 activation and thus may be a means by which Gram-negative bacteria modulate host immunity. However, although even minor changes in lipid A structure have been shown to affect downstream immune responses, the mechanism by which the TLR4-MD-2 receptor complex recognizes these changes is not well understood. We previously showed that strain BP338 of the human pathogen Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, modifies its lipid A by the addition of glucosamine moieties that promote TLR4 activation in human, but not mouse, macrophages. Using site-directed mutagenesis and an NFκB reporter assay screen, we have identified several charged amino acid residues in TLR4 and MD-2 that are important for these species-specific responses; some of these are novel for responses to penta-acyl B. pertussis LPS, and their mutation does not affect the response to hexa-acylated Escherichia coli LPS or tetra-acylated lipid IVA. We additionally show evidence that suggests that recognition of penta-acylated B. pertussis lipid A is dependent on uncharged amino acids in TLR4 and MD-2 and that this is true for both human and mouse TLR4-MD-2 receptors. Taken together, we have demonstrated that the TLR4-MD-2 receptor complex recognizes variation in lipid A molecules using multiple sites for receptor-ligand interaction and propose that host-specific immunity to a particular Gram-negative bacterium is, at least in part, mediated by very subtle tuning of one of the earliest interactions at the host-pathogen interface. 相似文献

Regulated proteolysis efficiently and rapidly adapts the bacterial proteome to changing environmental conditions. Many protease substrates contain recognition motifs, so-called degrons, that direct them to the appropriate protease. Here we describe an entirely new degron identified in the cytoplasmic N-terminal end of the membrane-anchored protein YfgM of Escherichia coli. YfgM is stable during exponential growth and degraded in stationary phase by the essential FtsH protease. The alarmone (p)ppGpp, but not the previously described YfgM interactors RcsB and PpiD, influence YfgM degradation. By scanning mutagenesis, we define individual amino acids responsible for turnover of YfgM and find that the degron does not at all comply with the known N-end rule pathway. The YfgM degron is a distinct module that facilitates FtsH-mediated degradation when fused to the N terminus of another monotopic membrane protein but not to that of a cytoplasmic protein. Several lines of evidence suggest that stress-induced degradation of YfgM relieves the response regulator RcsB and thereby permits cellular protection by the Rcs phosphorelay system. On the basis of these and other results in the literature, we propose a model for how the membrane-spanning YfgM protein serves as connector between the stress responses in the periplasm and cytoplasm. 相似文献

Hippocampal cholinergic neurostimulating peptide (HCNP) stimulates cholinergic activity of cultured medial septal nuclei explants.
It consists of eleven amino acids that are located at the N-terminal region of its precursor protein. This report concerns
the demonstration and characterization of an HCNP processing enzyme that cleaves the bioactive undecapeptide from the precursor.
The enzyme was purified from the hippocampus of young Wistar rats. A synthetic deacetylated peptide (peptide1–26) consisting of the N-terminal 26 amino acids of the HCNP precursor protein served as substrate. The product of the enzyme
reaction was identified and quantitated by HPLC using deacetylated HCNP as standard. The amount of undecapeptide generated
was directly proportional to the time of incubation of the enzyme reaction mixture. From molecular sieving chromatography
it was estimated that the molecular mass of the enzyme is close to 68 kDa. The HCNP processing enzyme has a pH optimum of
6.0 and a Km of 0.50 mM for peptide1–26. Preincubation at 56°C causes rapid inactivation of the HCNP processing activity. Enzyme activity is enhanced by EDTA and
1,4-dithiothreitol, and inhibited by antipain, chymostatin and E-64. These findings suggest that the enzyme probably has a
thiol group in its active site. This novel enzyme of the hippocampus may represent a valuable tool for further studies on
the general protein metabolism in the central nervous system, as well as for elucidating the neurochemical aspects of neurodegenerative
disorders. 相似文献

Thionins are plant-specific antimicrobial peptides that have been isolated from the endosperm and leaves of cereals, from the leaves of mistletoes, and from several other plant species. They are generally basic peptides with three or four disulfide bridges and a molecular mass of ∼5 kDa. Thionins are produced as preproproteins consisting of a signal peptide, the thionin domain, and an acidic domain. Previously, only mature thionin peptides have been isolated from plants, and in addition to removal of the signal peptide, at least one cleavage processing step between the thionin and the acidic domain is necessary to release the mature thionin. In this work, we identified a thionin proprotein-processing enzyme (TPPE) from barley. Purification of the enzyme was guided by an assay that used a quenched fluorogenic peptide comprising the amino acid sequence between the thionin and the acidic domain of barley leaf-specific thionin. The barley TPPE was identified as a serine protease () and expressed in Escherichia coli as a strep tag-labeled protein. The barley BTH6 thionin proprotein was produced in E. coli using the vector pETtrx1a and used as a substrate. We isolated and sequenced the BTH6 thionin from barley to confirm the N and C terminus of the peptide in planta. Using an in vitro enzymatic assay, the recombinant TPPE was able to process the quenched fluorogenic peptide and to cleave the acidic domain at least at six sites releasing the mature thionin from the proprotein. Moreover, it was found that the intrinsic three-dimensional structure of the BTH6 thionin domain prevents cleavage of the mature BTH6 thionin by the TPPE. BAJ93208相似文献

Osteoclasts (OCL) resorb bone. They are essential for the development of normal bones and the repair of impaired bones. The function of OCL is presumed to be supported by cytokines and other biological mediators, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and nitric oxide (NO). Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent inducer of TNF-α and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), which is the specific enzyme for synthesizing NO from L-arginine. To obtain direct evidence on LPS-induced TNF-α production and iNOS expression by OCL, OCL-enriched cultures were prepared by 7-day cocultures of bone marrow cells of adult BALB/c mice and osteoblastic cells (OBs) derived from calvaria of newborn BALB/c mice, and the generation of TNF-α and iNOS in OCL stimulated with LPS was examined immunocytochemically. When the cultured cells were stimulated with 100 ng/ml of LPS, OCL clearly showed TNF-α and iNOS expression. Without LPS-stimulation, no expression was observed. TNF activity in the culture supernatants of the OCL-enriched cultures in the presence of LPS was also detected by cytotoxic assay that used TNF-sensitive L929 cells. The dentin resorption activity of OCL was estimated by area and number of pits formed on dentin slices, which were covered by the OCL fraction and cultured in the presence or absence of LPS, sodium nitroprusside (SNP; a NO generating compound), NG-monomethyl L-arginine acetate (L-NMMA; a competitive inhibitor of NO synthase (NOS)), or LPS plus L-NMMA. Pit formation was obviously inhibited in the presence of SNP and slightly inhibited in the presence of L-NMMA, but it was not affected in the presence of LPS or LPS plus L-NMMA. These findings indicate that OCL produces TNF and expresses iNOS in response to LPS, but the LPS-activation of OCL scarcely affects pit formation by them. 相似文献

Increasing awareness of the possible role of internal dynamics in protein function has led to the development of new methods for experimentally characterizing protein dynamics across multiple time scales, especially using NMR spectroscopy. A few analyses of the conformational dynamics of proteins ranging from nonallosteric single domains to multidomain allosteric enzymes are now available; however, demonstrating a connection between dynamics and function remains difficult on account of the comparative lack of studies examining both changes in dynamics and changes in function in response to the same perturbations. In previous work, we characterized changes in structure and dynamics on the ps–ns time scale resulting from hydrophobic core mutations in chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 and found that there are moderate, persistent global changes in dynamics in the absence of gross structural changes (Whitley et al., Biochemistry 2008;47:8566–8576). Here, we assay those and additional mutants for inhibitory ability toward the serine proteases elastase and chymotrypsin to determine the effects of mutation on function. Results indicate that core mutation has only a subtle effect on CI2 function. Using chemical shifts, we also studied the effect of complex formation on CI2 structure and found that perturbations are greatest at the complex interface but also propagate toward CI2's hydrophobic core. The structure–dynamics–function data set completed here suggests that dynamics plays a limited role in the function of this small model system, although we do observe a correlation between nanosecond-scale reactive loop motions and inhibitory ability for mutations at one key position in the hydrophobic core. 相似文献

Sumoylation is a post-translational modification essential in most eukaryotes that regulates stability, localization, activity, or interaction of a multitude of proteins. It is a reversible process wherein counteracting ligases and proteases, respectively, mediate the conjugation and deconjugation of SUMO molecules to/from target proteins. Apart from attachment of single SUMO moieties to targets, formation of poly-SUMO chains occurs by the attachment of additional SUMO molecules to lysine residues in the N-terminal extensions of SUMO. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae there are apparently only two SUMO(Smt3)-specific proteases: Ulp1 and Ulp2. Ulp2 has been shown to be important for the control of poly-SUMO conjugates in cells and to dismantle SUMO chains in vitro, but the mechanism by which it acts remains to be elucidated. Applying an in vitro approach, we found that Ulp2 acts sequentially rather than stochastically, processing substrate-linked poly-SUMO chains from their distal ends down to two linked SUMO moieties. Furthermore, three linked SUMO units turned out to be the minimum length of a substrate-linked chain required for efficient binding to and processing by Ulp2. Our data suggest that Ulp2 disassembles SUMO chains by removing one SUMO moiety at a time from their ends (exo mechanism). Apparently, Ulp2 recognizes surfaces at or near the N terminus of the distal SUMO moiety, as attachments to this end significantly reduce cleavage efficiency. Our studies suggest that Ulp2 controls the dynamic range of SUMO chain lengths by trimming them from the distal ends. 相似文献
