As part of a wider study on Australian snake venom components, we have identified and characterised Kunitz-type protease inhibitors from the venoms of Oxyuranus scutellatus and Oxyuranus microlepidotus (Australian taipans) with plasma kallikrein inhibitory activity. Each inhibitor had a mass of 7 kDa and was purified from the venom as part of a protein complex. Mass spectrometry and N-terminal sequencing was employed to obtain amino acid sequence information for each inhibitor and a recombinant form of the O. scutellatus inhibitor, termed TSPI, was subsequently expressed and purified. TSPI was investigated for inhibition against a panel of 12 enzymes involved in haemostasis and estimates of the Ki value determined for each enzyme. TSPI was found to be a broad spectrum inhibitor with most potent inhibitory activity observed against plasma kallikrein that corresponded to a Ki of 0.057 ± 0.019 nM. TSPI also inhibited fibrinolysis in whole blood and prolonged the intrinsic clotting time. These inhibitors are also unique in that they appear to be found only in Oxyuranus sp. venoms. 相似文献

This study was aimed at investigating the purification, biological activity, and some structural properties of three serine protease inhibitors isoforms, denoted ApTIA, ApTIB, and ApTIC from Acacia plumosa Lowe seeds. They were purified from the saline extract of the seeds, using Superdex-75 gel filtration and Mono-S ion exchange chromatography. They were further investigated by mass spectrometry, spectroscopic measurements, surface plasmon resonance, and inhibition assays with proteases and phytopathogenic fungi. The molecular mass of each isoform was estimated at ca. 20 kDa. Each contained two polypeptide chains linked by a disulfide bridge, with different isoelectric points that are acidic in nature. The N-terminal sequences of both chains indicated that they were Kunitz-type inhibitors. Circular dichroism (CD) analyses suggested the predominance of both disordered and beta-strands on ApTI isoforms secondary structure, as expected for β-II proteins. In addition, it was observed that the proteins were very stable, even at either extreme pH values or at high temperature, with denaturation midpoints close to 75 °C. The isoinhibitors could delay, up to 10 times, the blood coagulation time in vitro and inhibited action of trypsin (Ki 1.8 nM), α-chymotrypsin (Ki 10.3 nM) and kallikrein (Ki 0.58 μM). The binding of ApTIA, ApTIB, and ApTIC to trypsin and α-chymotrypsin, was investigated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR), this giving dissociation constants of 0.39, 0.56 and 0.56 nM with trypsin and 7.5, 6.9 and 3.5 nM with α-chymotrypsin, respectively. The growth profiles of Aspergillus niger, Thielaviopsis paradoxa and Colletotrichum sp. P10 were also inhibited by each isoforms. These three potent inhibitors from A. plumosa may therefore be of great interest as specific inhibitors to regulate proteolytic processes. 相似文献

Eighteen clones representing copies of four Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor group B genes (PKPI-B) obtained by polymerase chain reaction cloning of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Istrinskii) genomic DNA were sequenced and analyzed. Three new genes were found and named PKPI-B1, PKPI-B2, and PKPI-B10: these were represented by five, two, and seven clones, respectively. The remaining four clones corresponded to the formerly characterized PKPI-B9 gene. These data show that at least four PKPI-B encoding genes are harbored in the genome of potato cv. Istrinskii. Their analysis suggests that variability of PKPI-B encoding genes in potato is limited and could be explained by cross-hybridization events in the ancestor forms rather than by random mutagenesis. 相似文献

The serine esterase TL2 from human T4+ lymphocytes is a binding component to HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 and seems to play a role in the HIV-1 infection mechanism. Recombinant variants of the Kunitz-type serine proteinase inhibitor aprotinin were investigated for their ability to inhibit tryptase TL2 and the binding of gp120 to this enzyme. Furthermore, the viral replication of HIV-1 was investigated in H9 cell cultures under the influence of recombinant aprotinin and bikunin variants. In contrast to native aprotinin, the recombinant variant [Arg15, Phe17, Glu52]aprotinin with a reactive-site sequence homologous to the V3 loop of HIV-1 gp120 showed a specific inhibition of tryptase TL2 (>80%). However, the [Leu15, Phe17, Glu52]aprotinin variant with hydrophobic subsites was the most potent inhibitor of the binding of gp120 to tryptase TL2 (68%). Our results show that the enzyme activity of purified tryptase TL2 is inhibited not only by variants with basic amino acids, but also those with hydrophobic residues in the reactive-site region. Therefore, tryptase TL2 is not a typical trypsin-like or chymotrypsin-like protease. Investigations on inhibition of HIV-1 replication in H9 cell cultures showed that tryptase TL2 is involved in the mechanism of virus internalization into human lymphocytes. The [Leu15, Phe17, Glu52]aprotinin showed a significant retardation of syncytium formation over a period of 5 days in a 1 M concentration. Similar investigations were performed with recombinant variants of bikunin, the light chain of human inter--trypsin inhibitor. Only the single-headed variant [Arg94]82bikunin inhibited slightly the syncytium formation over a period of 2 days in a 2.2 M concentration. Wild-type bikunin and all full-length variants showed no effect, possibly due to steric hindrance by the second domain of the double-headed inhibitor. 相似文献
