肺炎克雷伯菌是一种常见的院内条件致病菌,通常定植在人体的呼吸道和胃肠道。但肺炎克雷伯菌是怎样在胃液的强酸条件下存活并进入肠道尚不十分清楚。本研究发现,酸性条件能够诱导肺炎克雷伯菌KpHdeA基因表达上调。克隆KpHdeA基因并将其转化大肠杆菌,获得可溶性的KpHdeA蛋白并利用镍离子亲和层析纯化得到目的蛋白。光散射分析证明,酸性胁迫下,KpHdeA蛋白能够减少酸诱导的醇脱氢酶聚集。荧光实验证明,酸胁迫可以诱导KpHdeA蛋白的疏水基团暴露。圆二色谱实验证明,酸性条件能够诱导KpHdeA蛋白形成无序结构。此外KpHdeA蛋白的表达能提高大肠杆菌的耐酸能力。故推测,KpHdeA蛋白具有分子伴侣活性,并在肺炎克雷伯菌抵抗酸胁迫中起重要作用。 相似文献

Membrane fusion is a key step in the virus mediated cell fusion. The vesicular dispersion serves as a model system to study the membrane fusion. We employed dynamic and static light scattering to study the fusion of phosphatidylcholine vesicles in the presence of model fusion peptide fragments from the hemagglutinin HA2 protein. The fusion-induced aggregation under the present experimental setup exhibited strong pH dependence, similar to the parental viral protein. Replacement of the glycine residue at the extreme amino terminus by glutamic acid (G1E) abolished fusion activity. The average molecular mass and diameter of vesicular dispersion obtained from static and dynamic light scattering measurements respectively at neutral and acidic pH showed about three fold increase in acidic solution containing wild type fusion peptide. The light scattering data are consistent with lipid mixing results. The present work demonstrates the utility of light scattering as a facile means to monitor the fusion process. 相似文献

Background
Induction of the death pathway resulting from the specific interaction of the PP2A1 phosphatase with adenoviral E4orf4 protein is a promising approach for cancer therapy. With the aim of deregulating tumor pathways, and mimicking E4orf4 anti-cancer signal, we have previously proposed the DPT technology concept, based on design of specific PP1/PP2A interacting penetrating peptides.Methods
Using biochemical, structural and cell survival experiments, we have characterized new DPT-peptides containing short PP2A binding sequences.Results
We identified overlapping sequences, located within the N-terminal domain E4orf423-46 of canine adenoviral E4orf4 protein, that interact with the PP2A-Bα subunit of PP2A1 holoenzyme. We characterized DPT-E4orf44 and TAT-E4orf44, two bi-partite cell penetrating peptides containing the 12 PP2A1 binding residues of the canine type 2 E4orf427-38 sequence, respectively fused to the DPT-sh1 and TAT shuttle sequences. Surprisingly DPT-E4orf44, in contrast to inactive TAT-E4orf44, adopted a well defined α-helical structure and co-precipitated PP2A1 from HeLa cell extracts. DPT-E4orf44 also internalized streptavidin-HRP and inhibited survival of HeLa cells more efficiently than TAT, TAT-E4orf44 or the previously published anti-tumor TAT-derived peptide shepherdin. DPT-E4orf44 also efficiently inhibited the survival of human adherent transformed cells, including wild type and p53 mutated colonic HCT116 cells, without affecting survival of human non-transformed fibroblasts.Conclusions
We characterized the transducing properties of a new α-helical DPT-E4orf44 peptide containing a short PP2A-interacting sequence from canine Adenoviral E4orf4 protein.General significance
Our results suggest that α-helical structured DPT peptides specifically interacting with PP2A could be a valuable anti-cancer drug design scaffold. 相似文献15.
腺病毒E4orf4蛋白由腺病毒早期第4转录区第4开放读码框编码,为一种多功能调节蛋白质,其活性包括下调早期病毒基因表达和下调影响病毒复制的细胞基因表达,调控病毒基因的选择性转录后剪切以影响病毒感染进程等。当E4orf4脱离病毒环境单独表达时,可诱导不依赖p53和胱天蛋白酶途径的癌细胞特异性细胞死亡,而不影响原代细胞的正常生长。这表明E4orf4对癌细胞有特异性的杀伤作用。本文主要介绍了:(1)E4orf4主要蛋白质伴侣(蛋白磷酸酶2A和Src家族激酶)对E4orf4细胞杀伤作用的贡献;(2)E4orf4诱导的细胞死亡独特模式的基本机制及其特点;(3)近年来利用E4orf4治疗癌症的研究。 相似文献

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases. EGFR is activated upon binding to e.g. epidermal growth factor (EGF), leading to cell survival, proliferation and migration. EGFR overactivation is associated with tumor progression. We have previously shown that low dose UVB illumination of cancer cells overexpressing EGFR prior to adding EGF halted the EGFR signaling pathway. We here show that UVB illumination of the extracellular domain of EGFR (sEGFR) induces protein conformational changes, disulphide bridge breakage and formation of tryptophan and tyrosine photoproducts such as dityrosine, N-formylkynurenine and kynurenine. Fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism and thermal studies confirm the occurrence of conformational changes. An immunoassay has confirmed that UVB light induces structural changes in the EGF binding site. A monoclonal antibody which competes with EGF for binding sEGFR was used. We report clear evidence that UVB light induces structural changes in EGFR that impairs the correct binding of an EGFR specific antibody that competes with EGF for binding EGFR, confirming that the 3D structure of the EGFR binding domain suffered conformational changes upon UV illumination. The irradiance used is in the same order of magnitude as the integrated intensity in the solar UVB range. The new photonic technology disables a key receptor and is most likely applicable to the treatment of various types of cancer, alone or in combination with other therapies. 相似文献

Platelet binding by Streptococcus gordonii strain M99 is mediated predominantly by the cell surface glycoprotein GspB. This adhesin consists of a putative N-terminal signal peptide, two serine-rich regions (SRR1 and SRR2), a basic region between SRR1 and SRR2, and a C-terminal cell wall anchoring domain. The glycosylation of GspB is mediated at least in part by Gly and Nss, which are encoded in the secY2A2 locus immediately downstream of gspB. This region also encodes two proteins (Gtf and Orf4) that are required for the expression of GspB but whose functions have not been delineated. In this study, we further characterized the roles of Gly, Nss, Gtf, and Orf4 by investigating the expression and glycosylation of a series of glutathione S-transferase-GspB fusion proteins in M99 and in gly, nss, gtf, and orf4 mutants. Compared with fusion proteins expressed in the wild-type background, fusion proteins expressed in the mutant strain backgrounds showed altered electrophoretic mobility. In addition, the fusion proteins formed insoluble aggregates in protoplasts of the gtf and orf4 mutants. Glycan detection and lectin blot analysis revealed that SRR1 and SRR2 were glycosylated but that the basic region was unmodified. When the fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, glycosylation of this protein was observed only in the presence of both gtf and orf4. These results demonstrate that Gly, Nss, Gtf, and Orf4 are all involved in the intracellular glycosylation of SRRs. Moreover, Gtf and Orf4 are essential for glycosylation, which in turn is important for the solubility of GspB. 相似文献

Human genome projects have enabled whole genome mapping and improved our understanding of the genes in humans. However, many unknown genes remain to be functionally characterized. In this study, we characterized human chromosome 4 open reading frame 34 gene (hC4orf34). hC4orf34 was highly conserved from invertebrate to mammalian cells and ubiquitously expressed in the organs of mice, including the heart and brain. Interestingly, hC4orf34 is a novel ER-resident, type I transmembrane protein. Mutant analysis showed that the transmembrane domain (TMD) of hC4orf34 was involved in ER retention. Overall, our results indicate that hC4orf34 is an ER-resident type I transmembrane protein, and might play a role in ER functions including Ca2+ homeostasis and ER stress.
