静电作用与修饰铜锌超氧化物歧化酶的稳定性

铜锌超氧化物歧化酶(Cu, Zn-SOD)表面的赖氨酸经化学修饰后, 酶的稳定性显著提高. 赖氨酸被修饰后, 酶的电荷结构遂发生变化, 从而影响到酶分子电场. 使用FDPB方法(有限差分法求解Poission-Boltzman方程)计算了酶修饰前后的静电场变化, 以及对维持酶的结构稳定起重要作用的Cu, Zn配位结构的影响.结果表明, Cu, Zn配位体的两级离解常数在酶修饰后分别约下降10³, 10⁶.

l-Fucose residues on cellulose-based dialysis membranes: Quantification of membrane-associatedl-fucose and analysis of specific lectin binding

Contact of mononuclear human leukocytes with cellulose dialysis membranes may result in complement-independent cell activation, i.e. enhanced synthesis of cytokines, prostaglandins and an increase in 2-microglobulin synthesis. Cellular contact activation is specifically inhibited by the monosaccharidel-fucose suggesting that dialysis membrane associatedl-fucose residues are involved in leukocyte activation. In this study we have detected and quantitatedl-fucose on commercially-available cellulose dialysis membranes using two approaches. A sensitive enzymatic fluorescence assay detectedl-fucose after acid hydrolysis of flat sheet membranes. Values ranged from 79.3±3.6 to 90.2±5.0 pmol cm^–2 for Hemophan® or Cuprophan® respectively. Enzymatic cleavage of terminal -l-fucopyranoses with -l-fucosidase yielded 7.7±3.3 pmoll-fucose per cm² for Cuprophan. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the synthetic polymer membranes AN-69 and PC-PE did not yield detectable amounts ofl-fucose. In a second approach, binding of the fucose specific lectins ofLotus tetragonolobus andUlex europaeus (UEAI) demonstrated the presence of biologically accessiblel-fucose on the surface of cellulose membranes. Specific binding was observed with Cuprophan®, and up to 2.6±0.3 pmoll-fucose per cm² was calculated to be present from Langmuir-type adsorption isotherms. The data presented are in line with the hypothesis that surface-associatedl-fucose residues on cellulose dialysis membranes participate in leukocyte contact activation.     

Effect of mutations in Shigella flexneri chromosomal and plasmid-encoded lipopolysaccharide genes on invasion and serum resistance

This study shows that both length and distribution of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are important for Shigella flexneri invasion and virulence. Mutants were generated in the chromosomal LPS synthesis genes rfa , rfb , and rol , and in a plasmid-encoded O-antigen chain-length regulator, cld _pHS-2. LPS analysis showed that mutations in rfb genes and in a candidate rfaL gene either eliminated the entire O-antigen side chains or produced chains of greatly reduced length. Mutation in a previously unidentified gene, rfaX , affected the LPS core region and resulted in reduced amounts of O-antigen. Mutants defective in cld _pHS-2 or rol had different distributions of O-antigen chain lengths. The results of tissue-culture cell invasion and plaque assays, the Serény test, and serum-sensitivity assay suggested roles for the different LPS synthesis genes in bacterial survival and virulence; rfaL, rfaX and rfb loci are required for serum resistance and intercellular spread, but not for invasion; cld _pHS-2 is required for resistance to serum killing and for full inflammation in the Serény test, but not for invasion or intercellular spread, while rol is required for normal invasiveness and plaque formation, but not for serum resistance. Thus, O-antigen synthesis and chain-length regulation genes encoded on both the chromosome and the small plasmid pHS-2 play important roles in S. flexneri invasion and virulence.
