Human growth hormone (hGH) cDNA was synthesised using codons preferred by Escherichia coli, except for the first 20 amino acids, which were changed to that preferred by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) overlapping approach was employed to create synthetic hGH without glutamic acid-alanine (glu-ala), or with one and two glu-ala spacers (hGH, hGH1 and hGH2, respectively). The necessity of a glu-ala spacer in the cleavage of S. cerevisiae alpha mating factor-1 (MF-1) secretion signal from the synthetic hGH was also investigated. Three types of hGH constructs were integrated into P. pastoris genome, the zeocin-resistant transformants were selected and expression of hGH was determined. A 22-kDa band of secreted hGH was further determined by N-terminal peptide sequencing. The result suggested that the removal of glu-ala from the hGH1 and hGH2 was not efficient and only the hGH construct showed the complete cleavage of the signal sequence, giving a similar N-terminus as the mature hGH. hGH expression was optimized to increase the yield of the protein from the hGH construct (no glu-ala) to 190 mg/l from a 10-ml induction medium. 相似文献

The northeastern region of Thailand is well known to have a high incidence and mortality of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Protein phosphorylation status has been reported to reflect a key determinant of cellular physiology, but identification of phosphoproteins can be a problem due to the presence of phosphatase. Exosomes are stable toward circulating proteases and other enzymes in human blood and can be recognized before the onset of cancer progression. Here an in vitro metastatic model of isogenic CCA cells is used to provide insight into the phosphorylation levels of exosomal proteins derived from highly invasive cells. Gel‐based and gel‐free proteomics approaches are used to reveal the proteins differentially phosphorylated in relation to tumor cell phenotypes. Forty‐three phosphoproteins are identified with a significant change in phosphorylation level. Phos‐tag western blotting and immunohistochemistry staining are then employed to validate the candidate phosphoproteins. Heat shock protein 90 is successfully confirmed as being differentially phosphorylated in relation to tumor malignancy. Importantly, the aberrant phosphorylation of exosomal proteins might serve as a promising tool for the development of a biomarker for metastatic CCA. 相似文献

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a re‐emerging mosquito‐borne alphavirus that recently caused large epidemics in islands in, and countries around, the Indian Ocean. There is currently no specific drug for therapeutic treatment or for use as a prophylactic agent against infection and no commercially available vaccine. Prohibitin has been identified as a receptor protein used by chikungunya virus to enter mammalian cells. Recently, synthetic sulfonyl amidines and flavaglines (FLs), a class of naturally occurring plant compounds with potent anti‐cancer and cytoprotective and neuroprotective activities, have been shown to interact directly with prohibitin. This study therefore sought to determine whether three prohibitin ligands (sulfonyl amidine 1 m and the flavaglines FL3 and FL23) were able to inhibit CHIKV infection of mammalian Hek293T/17 cells. All three compounds inhibited infection and reduced virus production when cells were treated before infection but not when added after infection. Pretreatment of cells for only 15 minutes prior to infection followed by washing out of the compound resulted in significant inhibition of entry and virus production. These results suggest that further investigation of prohibitin ligands as potential Chikungunya virus entry inhibitors is warranted. 相似文献

Whole-cell matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (whole-cell MALDI-TOF MS) has been widely adopted as a useful technology in the identification and typing of microorganisms. This study employed the whole-cell MALDI-TOF MS to identify and differentiate wild-type and mutants containing constructed single gene mutations of Burkholderia pseudomallei, a pathogenic bacterium causing melioidosis disease in both humans and animals. Candidate biomarkers for the B. pseudomallei mutants, including rpoS, ppk, and bpsI isolates, were determined. Taxon-specific and clinical isolate-specific biomarkers of B. pseudomallei were consistently found and conserved across all average mass spectra. Cluster analysis of MALDI spectra of all isolates exhibited separate distribution. A total of twelve potential mass peaks discriminating between wild-type and mutant isolates were identified using ClinProTools analysis. Two peaks (m/z 2721 and 2748 Da) were specific for the rpoS isolate, three (m/z 3150, 3378, and 7994 Da) for ppk, and seven (m/z 3420, 3520, 3587, 3688, 4623, 4708, and 5450 Da) for bpsI. Our findings demonstrated that the rapid, accurate, and reproducible mass profiling technology could have new implications in laboratory-based rapid differentiation of extensive libraries of genetically altered bacteria. 相似文献

Daily, circadian rhythms influence essentially all living organisms and affect many physiological processes from sleep and nutrition to immunity. This ability to respond to environmental daily rhythms has been conserved along evolution, and it is found among species from bacteria to mammals. The hematopoietic process of the crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus is under circadian control and is tightly regulated by astakines, a new family of cytokines sharing a prokineticin (PROK) domain. The expression of AST1 and AST2 are light-dependent, and this suggests an evolutionarily conserved function for PROK domain proteins in mediating circadian rhythms. Vertebrate PROKs are transmitters of circadian rhythms of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the brain of mammals, but the mechanism by which they function is unknown. Here we demonstrate that high AST2 expression is induced by melatonin in the brain. We identify RACK1 as a binding protein of AST2 and further provide evidence that a complex between AST2 and RACK1 functions as a negative-feedback regulator of the circadian clock. By DNA mobility shift assay, we showed that the AST2-RACK1 complex will interfere with the binding between BMAL1 and CLK and inhibit the E-box binding activity of the complex BMAL1-CLK. Finally, we demonstrate by gene knockdown that AST2 is necessary for melatonin-induced inhibition of the complex formation between BMAL1 and CLK during the dark period. In summary, we provide evidence that melatonin regulates AST2 expression and thereby affects the core clock of the crustacean brain. This process may be very important in all animals that have AST2 molecules, i.e. spiders, ticks, crustaceans, scorpions, several insect groups such as Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, and Blattodea, but not Diptera and Coleoptera. Our findings further reveal an ancient evolutionary role for the prokineticin superfamily protein that links melatonin to direct regulation of the core clock gene feedback loops. 相似文献

A fertilized chicken egg is a unit of life. During hatching, transport of nutrients, including calcium, have been reported from the egg components to the developing embryo. Calcium is mobilized from the eggshell with the involvement of Ca2+-binding proteins. In addition, other unknown proteins may also play some important roles during embryo developing process. Therefore identification and prediction of biological functions of eggshell membrane (ESM) proteins during chick embryo development was conducted by proteome analysis. Comparison of different lysis solutions indicated that the highest ability to extract ESM proteins could be obtained with 1 % sodium dodecyl sulfate in 5 mM Tris–HCl buffer pH 8.8 containing 0.1 % 2-mercaptoethanol. In this study fertilized Cornish chicken eggs were incubated at 37 °C in humidified incubators for up to 21 days. At selected times (days 1, 9, 15 and 21), samples were taken and the ESMs were carefully separated by hand, washed with distilled water, and air-dried at room temperature. The ESM proteins were then solubilized and analyzed by proteome analysis. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis combined with high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry revealed 62 proteins in the ESM; only keratin is known ESM protein, 8 of which are egg white proteins and related while 53 others have not previously been reported. Some differences in the types of proteins and their molecular functions were noted in ESM at different incubation times. One protein which was present only at days 15 and 21 of egg incubation was identified as a calcium binding protein i.e. EGF like repeats and discoidin I like domain 3 (EDIL3 homologous protein). 相似文献

There is considerable current interest in developing antimicrobial and anticancer agents with a new mode of action. The antimicrobial peptides are regarded as a potential solution for treating cancer cells. The antimicrobial effect of 6 synthetic peptides against 7 bacterial species was evaluated. The result showed that IsCT, BmKn2 and BMAP-28 exhibited broad range of action against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, methicillin resistant S. aureus DMST 20651, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228, Acinetobacter baumanii ATCC 19066, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Salmonella typhi DMST 562 at minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 2.97–24.28 μM. Neither AMP induced significant hemolysis, or showed cytotoxic on dental pulp stem cells and smooth muscle cells at their MICs. In addition, BmKn2 inhibited growth of human oral squamous carcinoma HSC4 cells and human colon cancer SW620 cells with IC50 of 17.26 and 40 µM, respectively. Taken together, BmKn2 peptide from scorpion venom may offer a novel therapeutic strategy for development of cationic antimicrobial and anticancer peptides as potential new therapeutic agents. 相似文献

In the present study, electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to identify temperature responsive elements in the 5' upstream region (5' UTR) of the Spirulina desD gene. Overlapping, synthetic oligonucleotides of both sense and anti-sense strands that spanned the entire 5' UTR of the gene were analyzed. The responsive DNA-binding protein complexes were identified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The results indicated that the cold-responsive elements were located at -453 to -247, -197 to -151, -105 to -76, and -50 to -1, whereas the low-temperature specific regulatory regions were located at -372 to -352. Moreover, the heat-responsive elements were located at -347 to -243, -197 to -151, and -124 to -1, whereas the high-temperature specific elements were located between -130 to -101 and -30 to -1. In terms of regulatory protein complexes under the two stress conditions, Trx was only detected in the low-temperature responsive protein complex, and divalent cations were essential for the binding of the protein complex to the regulatory elements. Furthermore, Trx was shown to play a critical role as a reducing agent that inactivates the Spirulina desD repressor, GntR. Consequently, the desD gene expression is induced under the low-temperature condition. 相似文献
