Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is an abundant and ubiquitous chromatin-bound nuclear protein. PARP-1, a DNA repair enzyme, has been in the limelight as a chemotherapeutic target. In this study, we demonstrated the successful use of structure-based virtual screening to identify inhibitors of PARP-1 from Otava databases comprised of nearly 260,000 compounds. Five novel inhibitors belonging to thienopyrimidinone, isoquinolinoquinazolinone, pyrroloquinazolinone, and cyclopentenothienopyrimidinone scaffolds revealed inhibitory potencies with IC50 values ranged from 9.57 μM to 0.72 μM. Structural features relevant to the activity of these novel compounds within the active site of PARP-1 are discussed in detail and will guide future SAR investigation on these scaffolds. 相似文献

Triterpene derivatives were analyzed for anti-HIV-1 activity and for cellular toxicity. Betulinic aldehyde, betulinic nitrile, and morolic acid derivatives were identified to have anti-HIV-1 activity. These derivatives inhibit a late step in virus replication, likely virus maturation. 相似文献

Wilson disease (WD) is a disorder of copper metabolism caused by mutations in the Cu-transporting ATPase ATP7B. WD is characterized by significant phenotypic variability, the molecular basis of which is poorly understood. The E1064A mutation in the N-domain of ATP7B was previously shown to disrupt ATP binding. We have now determined, by NMR, the structure of the N-domain containing this mutation and compared properties of E1064A and H1069Q, another mutant with impaired ATP binding. The E1064A mutation does not change the overall fold of the N-domain. However, the position of the α1,α2-helical hairpin (α-HH) that houses Glu(1064) and His(1069) is altered. The α-HH movement produces a more open structure compared with the wild-type ATP-bound form and misaligns ATP coordinating residues, thus explaining complete loss of ATP binding. In the cell, neither the stability nor targeting of ATP7B-E1064A to the trans-Golgi network differs significantly from the wild type. This is in a contrast to the H1069Q mutation within the same α-HH, which greatly destabilizes protein both in vitro and in cells. The difference between two mutants can be linked to a lower stability of the α-HH in the H1069Q variant at the physiological temperature. We conclude that the structural stability of the N-domain rather than the loss of ATP binding plays a defining role in the ability of ATP7B to reach the trans-Golgi network, thus contributing to phenotypic variability in WD. 相似文献

Every multicellular organism consists of numerous organs, tissues and specific cell types. To gain detailed knowledge about the morphogenesis of these complex structures, it is inevitable to advance biochemical analyses to ultimate spatial and temporal resolution since individual cell types contribute differently to the overall performance of living objects. Single cell sampling combined with systems biological approaches was recently applied to investigations of Arabidopsis thaliana trichomes (leaf hairs). These are single celled structures that provide ideal model systems to address various aspects of plant cell development and differentiation at the level of individual cells. A previously suggested function of trichomes in plant stress responses could thus be confirmed. Furthermore, trichome-specific “omics” data collected in several laboratories are mutually conclusive which demonstrates the applicability of systems biological approaches at the single cell level. 相似文献

Stimulation of G-protein coupled membrane receptors linked to phospholipase C results in production of the second messengers diacylglycerol and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). IP3 releases Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, which triggers increased Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane, so-called capacitative calcium entry. DAG can also activate plasma membrane calcium-permeable channels but the mechanism is still not fully understood. In the pregnant human myometrial cell line PHM1 and in primary myometrial cells, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), a membrane-permeant analogue of diacylglycerol, induced variable oscillatory patterns of intracellular free Ca2+. Similar behavior was seen with Sr2+ entry. The Ca2+ oscillations were not blocked by a broad spectrum of protein kinase C inhibitors, including chelerytrine, bisindolylmaleimide I and calphostin C, and were enhanced and prolonged by RHC-80267, an inhibitor of diacylglycerol lipase. The OAG-induced oscillatory response was not dependent on Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum but required extracellular Ca2+. Our results indicate that diacylglycerol directly activates cation channels in PHM1 and primary myometrial cells and promotes intracellular Ca2+ oscillations by actions independent of intracellular Ca2+ -ATPase activity and protein kinase C involvement. 相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of proteins that constitute signaling pathways involved in processes that control gene expression, cell division, cell survival, apoptosis, metabolism, differentiation and motility. The MAPK pathways can be divided into conventional and atypical MAPK pathways. The first group converts a signal into a cellular response through a relay of three consecutive phosphorylation events exerted by MAPK kinase kinases, MAPK kinase, and MAPK. Atypical MAPK pathways are not organized into this three-tiered cascade. MAPK that belongs to both conventional and atypical MAPK pathways can phosphorylate both non-protein kinase substrates and other protein kinases. The latter are referred to as MAPK-activated protein kinases. This review focuses on one such MAPK-activated protein kinase, MAPK-activated protein kinase 5 (MK5) or p38-regulated/activated protein kinase (PRAK). This protein is highly conserved throughout the animal kingdom and seems to be the target of both conventional and atypical MAPK pathways. Recent findings on the regulation of the activity and subcellular localization, bona fide interaction partners and physiological roles of MK5/PRAK are discussed. 相似文献

Hyperspectral darkfield microscopy of PEGylated gold nanoparticles targeting CD44‐expressing cancer cells 下载免费PDF全文
We present a new hyperspectral darkfield imaging system with a scanned broadband supercontinuum light source. We observed the specific attachment of the functionalized gold plasmonic nanoparticles (AuNPs) targeting CD44+ human breast cancer cells by conventional and by proposed hyperspectral darkfield microscopy. This wide‐field and low phototoxic hyperspectral imaging system has been successful for performing spectral three‐dimensional (3D) localization and spectroscopic identification of CD44‐targeted PEGylated AuNPs in fixed cell preparations. Such spatial and spectral information is essential for the improvement of nanoplasmonic‐based imaging, disease detection and treatment in complex biological environment. Presented system capability for 3D NP tracking will also enable investigation of specific sub‐cellular activity with the use of NPs as spectral sensors. (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co.
