In the heart, angiotensin II has been suggested to regulate cardiac remodeling and promote cardiac hypertrophy. To examine this, we studied compound heterozygous mice, called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) 1/8, in which one ACE allele is null, whereas the other ACE allele (the 8 allele) targets expression to the heart. In this model, cardiac ACE levels are about 15 times those of wild-type mice, and ACE expression is reduced or eliminated in other tissues. ACE 1/8 mice have 58% the cardiac ACE of a previous model, called ACE 8/8, but both ACE 1/8 and ACE 8/8 mice have ventricular angiotensin II levels about twofold those of wild-type controls. Despite equivalent levels of cardiac angiotensin II, ACE 1/8 mice do not develop the marked atrial enlargement or the conduction defects previously reported in the ACE 8/8 mice. Six-month-old ACE 1/8 mice have normal cardiac function, as determined by echocardiography and left ventricular catheterization, despite the elevated levels of angiotensin II. ACE 1/8 mice also have normal levels of connexin 43. Both wild-type and ACE 1/8 mice develop similar degrees of cardiac hypertrophy after aortic banding. These data suggest that a moderate increase of local angiotensin II production in the heart does not produce cardiac dysfunction, at least under basal conditions, and that, in response to aortic banding, cardiac hypertrophy is not augmented by a twofold increase of cardiac angiotensin II. 相似文献

A yeast two-hybrid screen with the human S6 (TBP7, RPT3) ATPase of the 26 S proteasome has identified gankyrin, a liver oncoprotein, as an interacting protein. Gankyrin interacts with both free and regulatory complex-associated S6 ATPase and is not stably associated with the 26 S particle. Deletional mutagenesis shows that the C-terminal 78 amino acids of the S6 ATPase are necessary and sufficient to mediate the interaction with gankyrin. Deletion of an orthologous gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggests that it is dispensable for cell growth and viability. Overexpression and precipitation of tagged gankyrin from cultured cells detects a complex containing co-transfected tagged S6 ATPase (or endogenous S6) and endogenous cyclin D-dependent kinase CDK4. The proteasomal ATPases are part of the AAA (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) family, members of which are molecular chaperones; gankyrin complexes may therefore influence CDK4 function during oncogenesis. 相似文献

Investigations into the pharmacology of different types of cys-loop GABA receptor have relied for years on the chemical modification of GABA-like compounds. The GABA metabolite GABOB is an attractive molecule to modify due to its convenient chemical structure. In the process of developing new GABA-mimic compounds from GABOB as a starting compound three small molecule GABA derivatives were synthesized using a variety of chemical transformations. Amongst these, a new and reliable method to synthesize TACA (trans-4-aminocrotonic acid) is reported. 相似文献

Small conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (SK) are widely expressed throughout the central nervous system (CNS) and the periphery. Three subtypes of SK channels have so far been identified in different parts of the brain. Activation of the SK channels by a rise in intracellular calcium leads to the hyperpolarisation of the membrane, reducing cell excitability. Blocking the SK channels might be beneficial in the treatment of depression, Parkinson's disease and cognitive disorders. However, few blockers of SK channels have been characterized. In this study, a pharmacophoric model of SK channels blockers is presented. It is based on a series of nonpeptidic compounds and apamin, a peptidic blocker. To create the pharmacophore model, the conformational space of nonpeptidic blockers was investigated to generate a series of distance constraints applied to a simulated annealing study of apamin. The resulting conformation was superimposed with the nonpeptidic blockers to give a pharmacophore. 相似文献

DNA duplexes containing an ethyl interstrand crosslink that bridges the N3 atoms of thymidines on the opposite strands have been synthesized using an approach that combines conventional solid phase oligonucleotide synthesis and the selective removal of protecting groups of a crosslinked thymidine dimer. This approach allows for the assembly of a crosslinked duplex directly on the solid support. Duplexes that contain a N3T-ethyl-N3T interstrand crosslink in a staggered orientation at either a -TA- or -AT-step in a duplex have been prepared. When placed in an -AT- step of a duplex the effect was stabilizing relative to the non-crosslinked control duplex (deltaTm= +24 degrees C) and this crosslinked duplex was found to efficiently form multimers in the presence of T4 ligase. In the case of the -TA- crosslinked duplex the stabilizing effect was less pronounced (deltaT.= +6 degrees C) and likewise did not undergo self ligation under identical conditions. Molecular modeling studies suggested that the -AT- containing lesion had little deviation in structure relative to the non-crosslinked duplex DNA control, whereas the -TA- crosslinked duplex exhibited significant buckling of the base pairs flanking the lesion. 相似文献

Information about the invasion dynamics and demographic status of invasive species is essential to choose the optimal control options of population numbers. While long-term direct demographic and historical records are generally lacking, the analysis of the genetic variability of a current population might supply information about past and current demographic processes. In this study, we analysed the genetic variability of the cat population living on the main island of the Kerguelen archipelago. Genetic diversity was consistent with the introduction of a very small number of individuals followed by a demographic explosion of the cat population. Significant genetic structure among sites (Fst=0.06 ±0.005) and absence of isolation by distance could indicate that the initial phase of fast colonisation is now over. Estimates of individual relatedness indicated a significant kin structure. Overall data suggested that the cat population of the main island has probably reached carrying capacity. 相似文献

The flagellum of Methanococcus voltae is composed of four structural flagellin proteins FlaA, FlaB1, FlaB2, and FlaB3. These proteins possess a total of 15 potential N-linked sequons (NX(S/T)) and show a mass shift on an SDS-polyacrylamide gel indicating significant post-translational modification. We describe here the structural characterization of the flagellin glycan from M. voltae using mass spectrometry to examine the proteolytic digests of the flagellin proteins in combination with NMR analysis of the purified glycan using a sensitive, cryogenically cooled probe. Nano-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis of the proteolytic digests of the flagellin proteins revealed that they are post-translationally modified with a novel N-linked trisaccharide of mass 779 Da that is composed of three sugar residues with masses of 318, 258, and 203 Da, respectively. In every instance the glycan is attached to the peptide through the asparagine residue of a typical N-linked sequon. The glycan modification has been observed on 14 of the 15 sequon sites present on the four flagellin structural proteins. The novel glycan structure elucidated by NMR analysis was shown to be a trisaccharide composed of beta-ManpNAcA6Thr-(1-4)-beta-Glc-pNAc3NAcA-(1-3)-beta-GlcpNAc linked to Asn. In addition, the same trisaccharide was identified on a tryptic peptide of the S-layer protein from this organism implicating a common N-linked glycosylation pathway. 相似文献

Associations of MHC ancestral haplotypes with resistance/susceptibility to AIDS disease development 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

We tested the association of MHC ancestral haplotypes with rapid or slow progression to AIDS by comparing their frequencies in the French genetics of resistance/susceptibility to immunodeficiency virus cohort with that reported in a control French population. Seven ancestral haplotypes were identified in the genetics of resistance/susceptibility to immunodeficiency virus cohort with a frequency >1%. The 8.1 (odds ratio (OR) = 3, p = 0.006), 35.1 (OR = 5.7, p = 0.001), and 44.2 (OR = 3.4, p = 0.007) ancestral haplotypes were associated with rapid progression, whereas the 35.2 (OR = 3.6, p = 0.001), 44.1 (OR = 5.4, p < 10(-4)), and 57.1 (OR = 5.8, p < 10(-4)) ancestral haplotypes were associated with slow progression to AIDS. Although the frequency of each ancestral haplotype is low in the population, the OR were quite higher than those previously obtained for single HLA allele associations, with some p values as low as 10(-4). The analysis of the recombinant fragments of these haplotypes allowed the identification of the MHC regions in the 35.1, 35.2, and 44.2 haplotypes associated with rapid progression to AIDS and the MHC regions of the 44.1 and 57.1 haplotypes associated with slow progression to AIDS. Previous studies have identified single HLA alleles associated with disease progression. Our results on recombinant fragments confirm the direct role of HLA-B35 in rapid progression. Associations with HLA-A29 and -B57 might be due to linkage disequilibrium with other causative genes within the MHC region. 相似文献
