Four mutants of the human cap binding protein (hCBP), in which Trp-102, Glu-103, Asp-104 or Glu-105 was changed to the aliphatic Leu or Ala, were prepared, and their cap binding abilities were examined. Cap binding abilities of two mutants. W102L (Trp-102→Leu) and E105A (Glu-105→Ala), were significantly decreased in comparison with the wild-type hCBP. This result suggest that Trp-102 and Glu-105 are both necessary for the cap binding, and the most probable binding mode with the m7G of cap structure is the combination of the stacking by Trp-102 and the hydrogen-bond pairing by Glu-105, as was already proposed from the model studies. 相似文献

Due to multiple-drug resistant bacteria, phage therapy is being revisited. Although most animal experiments focus on therapeutic efficacy, the blood clearance kinetics of phages have not been well described. For further development of an efficient therapeutic strategy, information on phage blood kinetics is important. In this study, time-course concentration changes in peripheral blood of healthy and neutropenic mice were measured using four therapeutic phages (φMR11, KPP10, φEF24C, and KEP10). The results showed a two- to three-day rapid phage clearance, which fits a two-compartment model. 相似文献

Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE) has become a significant threat in nosocomial settings. Bacteriophage (phage) therapy is frequently proposed as a potential alternative therapy for infections caused by this bacterium. To search for candidate therapeutic phages against Enterococcus faecalis infections, 30 Enterococcus faecalis phages were isolated from the environment. One of these, virulent phage phiEF24C, which has a broad host range, was selected for analysis. The plaque-forming ability of phiEF24C was virtually unaffected by differences in the clinical host strains. Furthermore, the phage had a shorter latent period and a larger burst size than ordinary tailed phages, indicating that phiEF24C has effective lytic activity against many Enterococcus faecalis strains, including VRE. Morphological and genomic analyses revealed that phiEF24C is a large myovirus (classified as family Myoviridae morphotype A1) with a linear double-stranded DNA genome of c. 143 kbp. Analyses of the N-terminal amino acid sequences of the virion proteins, together with the morphology and the genome size, speculated that phiEF24C is closely related to other myoviruses of Gram-positive bacteria that have been used experimentally or practically for therapy or prophylaxis. Considering these results, phiEF24C may be a potential candidate therapeutic phage against Enterococcus faecalis infections. 相似文献
