In this study, a gene coding for thermophilic serine protease of the ClpP class from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium (Tpv) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The primary sequence and domain analysis of this enzyme showed similarities (50–60% similarity) to signal peptide peptidases (SppA) of bacteria and other archaea. An increase of about tenfold in the activity was achieved by overexpression of Tpv SppA in E. coli, as detected by enzyme assays conducted using Ala-Ala-Phe-pNa and N-Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA as substrates. The recombinant enzyme, purified using an anion exchange column chromatography, displayed an apparent molecular mass of 26 kDa on SDS-PAGE analysis. Purified Tpv SppA was active in a broad range of pH and temperature with maximal activity at 60°C and between pH 7.5 and pH 8.0. The activity of the enzyme was strongly inhibited by inhibitors typical for serine proteases, i.e., chymostatin and PMSF. The activity of the Tpv SppA and the stability at high temperature were significantly enhanced in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+ ions. Our multiple sequence alignment data revealed a conserved Ser/Lys catalytic dyad in Tpv SppA that comprised Ser76 (nucleophile) and Lys128 (general base) residues. A search for a transmembrane domain using automated programs did not predict any signal peptide associated with the Tpv SppA and, therefore, suggested a cytoplasmic location for this enzyme.  相似文献

Among the numerous virulance factors produced byPseudomonas aeruginosa, elastase is the one most often associated with pathogenesis. In this study, effects of various metal ions on elastase from a new isolate ofP. aeruginosa (Strain SES-938-1) was investigated. Crude elastase was prepared from culture supernatant via salting out by ammonium sulfate, and then desalting and concentrating the sample using a centricon microconcentrator. Activities were measured at 450 nm usingN-succinyl-l-(ala)3-p-nitroanilide as the substrate. The metal chelating agents EDTA and EGTA inhibited thePseudomonas elastase, which shows that the enzyme is a typical metalloproteinase. At a 10-mM concentration, Mn2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ strongly inhibited the elastase, whereas Mg2+ effect was negligable. There was a gradual decrease in the enzyme activity in accordance with an increase in the concentration of metal ions.  相似文献

The polar lipids of the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium tetani, the causative agent of tetanus, have been examined by two-dimensional thin layer chromatography, ESI mass spectrometry, and NMR spectroscopy. Plasmalogen and di- and tetra-acylated species of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, cardiolipin, and N-acetylglucosaminyl diradylglycerol were the major lipids present in most strains examined except for strain ATCC 10779, the parent of strain E88, the first C. tetani strain to have its genome sequenced. This strain contained the same di- and tetra-acylated species but did not contain plasmalogens. All strains contained a novel derivative of N-acetylglucosaminyl diradylglycerol in which a phosphoethanolamine unit is attached to the 6’-position of the sugar, as judged by selective 31P-decoupled, 1H-detected NMR difference spectroscopy. The N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residue is presumably linked to the 3-positon of the diradylglycerol moiety, and it has the β-anomeric configuration. Very little plasmalogen component was detected by mass spectrometry in the precursors phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine, consistent with the idea that plasmalogens are formed from diacylated phospholipids at a late stage of phospholipid assembly in anaerobic clostridia.  相似文献

Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the world and one of the most lethal cancers. Microsatellite instability is an important characteristic of tumor cells and is observed both in presence and absence of mismatch repair gene mutations. The importance of microsatellite instability in head and neck cancer is not well established due to the lack of a consensus panel and selection of different markers, criteria and methodological variances. The main objective of this study was to investigate the performance of a consensus panel of microsatellite repeats by automated fragment analysis. Matched tumor and normal tissue samples from 99 patients were analyzed using five mononucleotide markers. Following PCR the amplified fragments were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis on an ABI 310 genetic analyzer. Microsatellite instability was observed in 26 patients. In 17 patients instability was detected at multiple loci. NR21 and BAT25 were the most frequently altered targets. These two mononucleotide markers could detect all samples displaying high-instability. In this study we describe a standardized fluorescent multiplex PCR combined with computerized analysis, which allows rapid and accurate analysis of a high number of samples and obviates the need to compare tumors with matching normal tissue.  相似文献

Mycobacterium tuberculosis survives in latently infected individuals, likely in a nonreplicating or dormancy-like state. The M. tuberculosis DosR regulon is a genetic program induced by conditions that inhibit aerobic respiration and prevent bacillus replication. In this study, we used a mutant incapable of DosR regulon induction to investigate the contribution of this regulon to bacterial metabolism during anaerobic dormancy. Our results confirm that the DosR regulon is essential for M. tuberculosis survival during anaerobic dormancy and demonstrate that it is required for metabolic processes that occur upon entry into and throughout the dormant state. Specifically, we showed that regulon mechanisms shift metabolism away from aerobic respiration in the face of dwindling oxygen availability and are required for maintaining energy levels and redox balance as the culture becomes anaerobic. We also demonstrated that the DosR regulon is crucial for rapid resumption of growth once M. tuberculosis exits an anaerobic or nitric oxide-induced nonrespiring state. In summary, the DosR regulon encodes novel metabolic mechanisms essential for M. tuberculosis to survive in the absence of respiration and to successfully transition rapidly between respiring and nonrespiring conditions without loss of viability.Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a major human pathogen, infects nearly one-third of the people in the world and causes two million deaths per year (8). Most infections are latent, and a substantial number of new infections are transmitted by individuals in whom latent infections are being reactivated. Latency is a clinical term describing people that are infected with M. tuberculosis but lack symptoms of active disease. Traditionally, it has been thought that bacilli in latently infected individuals reside almost exclusively inside granulomas and mature tubercle lesions. Recent studies indicate that in latently infected individuals M. tuberculosis may also be found outside granulomas in places such as endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and adipose tissue (17, 28). The evidence for M. tuberculosis metabolic activity in vivo is more limited, but two studies by Lillebaek et al. are informative (24, 25). In these studies the researchers used detailed records of tuberculosis epidemiology and strain types in the fairly static population of Denmark. They found that strains isolated from patients thought to have reactivated disease (rather than a primary infection) were nearly identical to strains present 30 years earlier in the same geographic population. The near-identity of the strains and the fact that infections were attributed to reactivation suggest that bacteria in latently infected individuals experience little genetic change during years of latent infection. The researchers concluded that during latency, M. tuberculosis divides infrequently and is likely in a minimal metabolic state.One approach to study the M. tuberculosis metabolic state during latent infection is to use in vitro models that mimic conditions thought to exist in vivo. Such conditions include hypoxia produced in avascular calcified granulomas (40) and nitric oxide (NO) (27) or carbon monoxide (CO) (33) produced by activated immune cells. A widely used model is the “Wayne model” pioneered by Lawrence Wayne. In this model, a low-inoculum culture is sealed in a tube with stirring and allowed to slowly consume oxygen until the culture is anaerobic, resulting in a nonreplicating and apparently dormant state (45, 46). Another model used to look at dormant M. tuberculosis is a constant-hypoxia model that maintains a 0.2% oxygen tension in culture flasks (31).The common theme in these in vitro models used to obtain M. tuberculosis dormancy is inhibition of respiration. The DosR regulon is a set of at least 48 coregulated genes that are induced by three conditions that inhibit aerobic respiration: hypoxia, NO, and CO (42). Induction of the DosR regulon closely mirrors inhibition of respiration, indicating that control of the regulon is linked to the aerobic respiratory state of the bacilli (43). Several studies have shown that the DosR regulon is controlled by a three-component regulatory system composed of two sensor histidine kinases, DosS and DosT, and a response regulator, DosR (42). DosS and DosT both bind the respiration-impairing gases NO and CO (19, 20, 38), further supporting the hypothesis that the DosR regulon responds to, and is important during, conditions that do not allow aerobic respiration. Although the majority of the DosR-regulated genes have not been characterized, the timing of their induction combined with the conditions under which they respond suggests that they may play a role in adaptation of M. tuberculosis to its host environment. Consistent with this notion, DosR regulon genes are induced in the lungs of M. tuberculosis-infected mice (43), as well as in interferon-gamma-activated murine macrophages (34) and guinea pigs (37).Several studies have suggested that the DosR regulon plays a role in latent infection and in persistence in animal models that resemble human infection in some respects. Leyten et al. found that latently infected humans are more likely than humans with active infections to bear T cells specific for DosR regulon antigens (23), suggesting that the regulon is expressed during latency. Two recent studies confirmed that there is an immune response to DosR regulon antigens during latent infection (4, 36). Further evidence for clinical relevance in humans comes from a study showing that M. tuberculosis in sputum expresses the DosR regulon (15). The importance of this regulon for persistence in rabbit and guinea pig models was demonstrated by data showing a 2-log decrease in recovery of a DosR mutant 2 weeks (guinea pig) and 8 weeks (rabbit) after aerosol infection (11). A DosR mutant was also found to be significantly attenuated in guinea pig infection (26), further supporting the notion that the DosR regulon is required for persistence in vivo. It should be noted that in both studies showing the DosR phenotype (11, 26), full complementation and reversion to full virulence were not observed. However, it is now known that regulation of dosR expression is quite complex. Multiple regulatory sequences exist in and upstream of Rv3134c, the gene directly upstream of dosR (8). Failure to include such a regulatory sequence in a complemented strain would likely result in misregulation of dosR and poor complementation. Studies of DosR regulon mutants for murine infection have produced inconsistent findings that vary from hypervirulent (30) to attenuated (11) and not attenuated (3, 31). When animal models are compared, it is important to remember that M. tuberculosis-induced granulomas in primates, rabbits, and guinea pigs develop caseous necrosis and are hypoxic and/or anaerobic, while M. tuberculosis induced-granulomas in mice are neither hypoxic nor anaerobic (2, 21, 41). Furthermore, M. tuberculosis divides regularly in chronic murine infections (16), in contrast to the replication during latent infections, as demonstrated in the studies of Lillebaek et al. (24, 25). Such studies underscore the significant differences between models.A previous study with a DosR mutant in a closely related Mycobacterium bovis BCG strain showed that DosR expression is required for survival in an in vitro Wayne-like model of dormancy (5). Unexpectedly, two similar studies in M. tuberculosis did not show a strong survival defect for a DosR mutant (31, 43). The most recent study showed that there was only a modest survival defect in an H37Rv DosR mutant and concluded that the DosR regulon is a short-term phenomenon and is not responsible for the adaptation necessary to survive under primarily hypoxic conditions in vitro (31, 32).In this study we showed that the DosR regulon is required for M. tuberculosis survival during anaerobic dormancy. We also used a combination of genetic and biochemical approaches to demonstrate that this regulon is necessary to shift away from oxygen consumption, maintain ATP levels, and balance the redox state (NAD/NADH ratio) of the cell as oxygen becomes scarce. Furthermore, we showed that the DosR regulon is necessary for optimal transition of M. tuberculosis back to aerobic growth from an anaerobic or nitric oxide-induced nonrespiring state.  相似文献

Dopamine increases lung fluid clearance. This is partly due to activation of basolateral Na-K-ATPase. However, activation of Na-K-ATPase by itself is unlikely to produce large changes in transepithelial transport. Therefore, we examined apical and basolateral dopamine's effect on apical, highly selective sodium channels [epithelial sodium channels (ENaC)] in monolayers of an alveolar type 2 cell line (L2). Dopamine increased channel open probability (P(o)) without changing the unitary current. The D(1) receptor blocker SCH-23390 blocked the dopamine effect, but the D(2) receptor blocker sulpiride did not. The dopamine-mediated increase in ENaC activity was not a secondary effect of dopamine stimulation of Na-K-ATPase, since ouabain applied to the basolateral surface to block the activity of Na-K-ATPase did not alter dopamine-mediated ENaC activity. Protein kinase A (PKA) was not responsible for dopamine's effect since a PKA inhibitor, H89, did not reduce dopamine's effect. However, cpt-2-O-Me-cAMP, which selectively binds and activates EPAC (exchange protein activated by cAMP) but not PKA, increased ENaC P(o). An Src inhibitor, PP2, and the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitor, LY-294002, blocked dopamine's effect on ENaC. In addition, an MEK blocker, U0126, an inhibitor of phospholipase A(2), and a protein phosphatase inhibitor also blocked the effect of dopamine on ENaC P(o). Finally, since the cAMP-EPAC-Rap1 pathway also activates DARPP32 (32-kDa dopamine response protein phosphatase), we confirmed that dopamine phosphorylates DARPP32, and okadaic acid, which blocks phosphatases (DARPP32), also blocks dopamine's effect. In summary, dopamine increases ENaC activity by a cAMP-mediated alternative signaling pathway involving EPAC and Rap1, signaling molecules usually associated with growth-factor-activated receptors.  相似文献

Zinc and copper status in acute pancreatitis: an experimental study   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Metal ions are required as active components of several proteins, including pancreatic enzymes, and they can play important roles in the etiopathogenesis of acute pancreatitis. In the present study, we measured the concentrations of zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) in both serum and pancreatic tissue, as markers of trace element status in an experimental acute pancreatitis model. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into two groups: the experimental group (N=24) and the control group (N=10). Acute pancreatitis was induced by injection of 48% ethyl alcohol into the common biliary duct. The animals were sacrificed 24 h later to detect the concentrations of Zn and Cu. There was no significant difference in tissue Zn and Cu concentrations between control and experimental groups (p<0.05). However, in the acute pancreatitis group, serum Zn and Culevels were very significantly lower (p<0.001 and p<0.0001, respectively). In conclusuion, these findings suggested that altered mineral metabolism in serum and pancreatic tissue may have contributed to the pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis.  相似文献

The effect of the use of an oral contraceptive (OC) on the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and on the response in the alkaline comet assay (single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE)) was investigated in 18 women taking contraceptive pills daily for 24 months. As controls, fertile women were included with regular menstrual cycles who received no OC drugs. A significant increase in the number of lymphocytes with DNA migration and an increased frequency of SCE per metaphase were observed in OC users as compared with their age-matched untreated controls (P<0.005). As higher incidences of spontaneous SCEs in peripheral blood lymphocytes have been reported to occur in females during pregnancy due to profound changes in the levels of certain sex hormones such as progesterone and estrogen, particularly during the last trimester, 17 pregnant women served as positive controls in this study in order to test the rate of genetic damage due to those changes. Higher frequencies of SCEs and comet responses were observed in pregnant women than in their matched controls. However, no statistically significant difference in DNA damage was observed between OC users and pregnant women (P>0.05). This study underscores the fact that prolonged and extensive use of these drugs in our daily life may be hazardous and also, that OC users should be aware of multifactorial risk factors (environmental, genetic and life style patterns) that may be responsible for additional DNA damage.  相似文献

The frequency of chromosomal aberrations (CAs) was evaluated in blood lymphocytes from 18 healthy subjects. Basal CA frequencies were not significantly different in GSTM1 positive and GSTM1 null subjects (P>0.05), whereas they were considerably higher in smokers than in non-smokers. After 1 Gy dose of X-ray challenge of blood samples, CA frequencies were significantly higher in GSTM1 null subjects, compared to GSTM1 positive subjects (P<0.005), and in smokers, compared to non-smokers. These effects are ascribed to the influence of GSTM1 genotype and of smoking status on DNA repair capacities. As the induction of CAs are associated with carcinogenesis, the challenge assay is able to detect enhanced susceptibility for CA caused by genetic predisposition of DNA repair deficiency.  相似文献

Megakaryocytes are assumed to be functionally linked with the evolution of myelofibrosis, complicating chronic myeloproliferative disorders. It has already been shown that megakaryocytes will promote fibroblast growth in vitro when in spatial proximity. Here, we demonstrate that the integrin receptors α3β1 and α5β1 are involved in this megakaryocyte-fibroblast interaction. Upon addition of anti-α3 and -α5 antibodies to megakaryocyte-fibroblast cocultures, fibroblast growth was significantly impaired, and megakaryocyte attachment to the fibroblast feederlayer was significantly reduced. Unilateral blocking of megakaryocytes with anti-α3 or -α5 antibodies resulted in a suppression of adhesion, probably reflecting the prominent function of fibronectin receptors on the megakaryocyte surface. Moreover, the oligopeptide RGDS (Asp-Gly-Asp-Ser) caused a significant reduction of fibroblast growth as well as megakaryocyte adhesion. This feature reinforces that fibronectin receptors are involved. In addition, fibroblast proliferation was impaired by the application of fibronectin antibodies recognizing the cell-binding domain. However, no effect was observable with respect to megakaryocyte adhesion. In conclusion, our in vitro studies demonstrate the involvement of β1-integrins, in particular the fibronectin receptor in the megakaryocyte-dependent fibroblast proliferation and therefore suggest a pivotal role of megakaryocytes in the complex pathomechanism causing myelofibrosis.
