N-糖基化对毕赤酵母表达的DSPAα1分泌和活性的影响(英文)

溶栓剂DSPAα1正处于治疗急性缺血性中风的III期临床研究,临床结果显示DSPAα1具有良好的药理学和安全特性。将DSPAα1基因序列按照毕赤酵母偏好密码子进行优化,并在毕赤酵母菌株GS115和KM71中进行表达,同时利用定点突变对糖基化侧链进行缺失,考察糖基侧链对毕赤酵母表达DSPAα1的影响。结果表明,野生型DSPAα1在GS115和KM71中均获得高表达,在摇瓶发酵条件下,表达量分别为70mg/L和105mg/L;利用SDS-PAGE对DSPAα1三种突变体(N117Q、N362Q和N117Q/N362Q)进行分析,与野生型蛋白质相比较,3种突变体的表达水平显著下降,同时纤溶平板测活数据显示,纯化后的突变体N117Q和N362Q比活性均低于野生型蛋白质的25%。这表明,N-型糖链(N117和N362)对毕赤酵母表达的DSPAα1分泌和酶活性具有重要作用。     

泛素化修饰与植物免疫应答

植物暴露在细菌、病毒和真菌等病原微生物环境中,病虫害是限制农作物产量和品质的主要因素,而植物病虫害的防治依赖于对植物抗病机制的深入认识。近年来的研究表明,蛋白质泛素化广泛地参与植物防御调节。蛋白质泛素化是真核生物中重要的翻译后修饰方式之一,在植物中,泛素化修饰在多种信号传导途径中发挥作用,如激素、光、糖应答,发育调节和病原菌防御信号途径等。综述了蛋白质泛素化修饰在植物免疫应答中的调控作用。     

尿蛋白质组学在肾脏疾病研究中的应用

长期以来,肾脏病的治疗进展一直十分缓慢,这是因为目前一些肾脏病在诊断分型上存在很多缺陷,分型通常只能依靠细微的组织病理学差异,这使早期诊断、预后追踪以及疗效观察都十分困难。如果能发现像肌钙蛋白一样特异的生物学标志物,将有助于提高肾脏病的诊疗水平。由于尿液与泌尿系统之间存在着天然的联系,这使得尿液在反映泌尿系统功能方面具备"地理"优势。因此,尿蛋白质组学的兴起和发展为肾脏病及其他泌尿系统疾病的研究开启了一扇新的大门。该文综述了尿蛋白质组学技术的发展及其在各种泌尿系统疾病研究中的应用。     

Helicobacter pylori recrudescence and its influencing factors

Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) is known as one of the most common infectious pathogens, with high infection and recurrence rates worldwide. The prevalence of H pylori is up to 90% in developing countries, while the annual recurrence rate is much higher than that in developed countries. Recurrence can occur either by recrudescence or reinfection. Compared with reinfection, the time window for recrudescence is generally shorter, followed by the recurrence of H pylori–associated diseases in the short‐term. Many factors are involved in the H pylori reinfection, such as the prevalence of H pylori infection, living conditions and economic development, health conditions and so forth. Previous studies focused less on H pylori recrudescence. Therefore, the influencing factors for H pylori recrudescence needed further exploration. This study reviewed the recrudescence of H pylori infection and its influencing factors.

Reagentless amperometric immunosensor for human chorionic gonadotrophin based on direct electrochemistry of horseradish peroxidase

A novel amperometric immunosensor for determination of human serum chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) was constructed by immobilization of HCG with titania sol-gel on a glassy carbon electrode and the direct electrochemistry of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labeled to HCG antibody (HRP-anti-HCG). The morphologies of the HCG membrane were characterized to be chemically clean, porous and homogeneous. HRP-anti-HCG was functionally conjugated with the immobilized HCG after incubation in phosphate buffer (PBS) containing HRP-anti-HCG. A direct electron transfer of HRP with a rate constant of 1.35+/-0.40 s(-1) was observed at the HRP-anti-HCG-HCG/titania sol-gel membrane modified electrode in 0.1 M PBS pH 7.0. With a competitive mechanism the differential pulse voltammetric peak current of the immobilized HRP decreased linearly with an increasing HCG concentration from 2.5 to 12.5 mIU/ml in the incubation solution. The HCG immunosensor showed a detection limit of 1.4 mIU/ml, a good accuracy and acceptable precision and reproducibility with an intra-assay CV of 4.7% at 5.0 mIU/ml and an inter-assay precision of 8.1% obtained at 10 mIU/ml. The biosensor displayed a good stability in a storage period of 30 days.     

Quality,bioactivity study,and preclinical acute toxicity,safety pharmacology evaluation of PEGylated recombinant human endostatin (M2ES)

Endostar, a potent endogenous antiangiogenic factor, is wildly used in clinics. However, it was easily degraded by enzymes and rapidly cleared by the kidneys. To overcome these shortcomings, PEGylated recombinant human endostatin was developed. In this study, the purity of M₂ES was evaluated by silver stain and reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. Ultraviolet spectrum was used to examine the structural of M₂ES and endostar. The bioactivity and antitumor efficacy of M₂ES were evaluated using an in vitro endothelial cell migration model and athymic nude mouse xenograft model of a heterogeneous lung adenocarcinoma, respectively. A preclinical study was performed to evaluate the acute toxicity and safety pharmacology in rhesus monkeys. The purity of M₂ES was more than 98%; PEG modification has no effect on endostatin structure. Compared with the control group, M₂ES dramatically retards endothelial cell migration and tumor growth. After intravenous (IV) infusions of M₂ES at a dose level of three and 75 mg/kg in rhesus monkeys, there was no observable serious adverse event in both acute toxicity and safety pharmacology study. On the basis of the quality and bioactivity study data of M₂ES and the absence of serious side effect in rhesus monkeys, M₂ES was authorized to initiate a phase I clinical trial.

华根霉固态与液态培养产胞外蛋白的比较蛋白质组学分析

【目的】考察固态和液态两种培养方式对丝状真菌华根霉(Rhizopus chinensis)CCTCC M201021产胞外蛋白的影响,以加深对微生物固、液态培养特异性产酶的认识。【方法】利用成分相同的培养基对华根霉分别进行平板固态培养和液态培养,提取华根霉所产胞外蛋白,采用二维凝胶电泳(2-DE)结合质谱分析,分离鉴定差异蛋白。【结果】固态培养下华根霉所产胞外蛋白的蛋白酶活性是液态培养的9.2倍。胞外蛋白质组数据分析表明,华根霉固态和液态培养所产胞外蛋白存在显著差异,其中约70%是固态和液态培养下各自产生的特有蛋白。质谱鉴定进一步表明,固、液态培养对华根霉产胞外蛋白的种类和表达量都有显著影响,其中水解酶类所占比例较大,主要是与蛋白质降解相关的蛋白。【结论】固态和液态不同培养方式影响了华根霉产胞外蛋白的组成,有些基因只在特定培养方式下表达。固态培养下华根霉产胞外蛋白酶种类相对更多以及大部分蛋白酶的上调表达,可能是固态培养下胞外蛋白酶活性很高的原因。研究结果提示需要注意固液态不同培养方式下丝状真菌胞外酶的筛选和生产可能存在的不一致性。
