Processing of viral envelope glycoprotein by the endomannosidase pathway: evaluation of host cell specificity 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
Endo-alpha-D-mannosidase is an enzyme involved in N-linked oligosaccharide
processing which through its capacity to cleave the internal linkage
between the glucose-substituted mannose and the remainder of the
polymannose carbohydrate unit can provide an alternate pathway for
achieving deglucosylation and thereby make possible the continued formation
of complex oligosaccharides during a glucosidase blockade. In view of the
important role which has been attributed to glucose on nascent
glycoproteins as a regulator of a number of biological events, we chose to
further define the in vivo action of endomannosidase by focusing on the
well characterized VSV envelope glycoprotein (G protein) which can be
formed by the large array of cell lines susceptible to infection by this
pathogen. Through an assessment of the extent to which the G protein was
converted to an endo-beta-N- acetylglucosaminidase (endo H)-resistant form
during a castanospermine imposed glucosidase blockade, we found that
utilization of the endomannosidase-mediated deglucosylation route was
clearly host cell specific, ranging from greater than 90% in HepG2 and PtK1
cells to complete absence in CHO, MDCK, and MDBK cells, with intermediate
values in BHK, BW5147.3, LLC-PK1, BRL, and NRK cell lines. In some of the
latter group the electrophoretic pattern after endo H treatment suggested
that only one of the two N-linked oligosaccharides of the G protein was
processed by endomannosidase. In the presence of the specific
endomannosidase inhibitor, Glcalpha1-->3(1- deoxy)mannojirimycin, the
conversion of the G protein into an endo H- resistant form was completely
arrested. While the lack of G protein processing by CHO cells was
consistent with the absence of in vitro measured endomannosidase activity
in this cell line, the failure of MDBK and MDCK cells to convert the G
protein into an endo H-resistant form was surprising since these cell lines
have substantial levels of the enzyme. Similarly, we observed that
influenza virus hemagglutinin was not processed in castanospermine-treated
MDCK cells. Our findings suggest that studies which rely on glucosidase
inhibition to explore the function of glucose in controlling such critical
biological phenomena as intracellular movement or quality control should be
carried out in cell lines in which the glycoprotein under study is not a
substrate for endomannosidase action.

Optimization of the stage of fractioning of nucleotide material has been performed, and a technology for purification and
obtaining of plasmid DNAs for pharmaceutical purposes has been developed. Plasmid DNAs can be used for construction of DNA
vaccines to urgent viral infections. Conditions for extraction and preliminary purification of DNA by salt and alcohol precipitations
were determined. An effective gel-filtration procedure of separation of plasmid DNA from contaminants was suggested. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of single injection of 0.5 mg progesterone in neonatal stage of development on morphometric parameters of the adult rat uterus. The results showed that there were no changes ofendometrial morphometry in respect to oestrous cycle in neonatal treated rats. Neonatal administration of progesterone decreased the myometrium thickness in oestrus and dioestrums owing to circular muscle layer, and disturbed sex steroids secretion during the oestrous cycle. These data suggest that neonatal administration progesterone reduces the endometrium sensitivity to sex steroids and produces the myometrium atrophy. 相似文献

Background
Although cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, the severity of disease is highly variable indicating the influence of modifier genes. The intestines of Cftr deficient mice (CF mice: Cftr tm1Unc ) are prone to obstruction by excessive mucus accumulation and are used as a model of meconium ileus and distal intestinal obstruction syndrome. This phenotype is strongly dependent on the genetic background of the mice. On the C57Bl/6 background, the majority of CF mice cannot survive on solid mouse chow, have inflammation of the small intestine, and are about 30% smaller than wild type littermates. In this work potential modifier loci of the CF intestinal phenotype were identified.Results
CF mice on a mixed genetic background (95% C57Bl/6 and 5% 129Sv) were compared to CF mice congenic on the C57Bl/6 background for several parameters of the intestinal CF phenotype. CF mice on the mixed background exhibit significantly greater survival when fed dry mouse chow, have reduced intestinal inflammation as measured by quantitative RT-PCR for marker genes, have near normal body weight gain, and have reduced mucus accumulation in the intestinal crypts. There was an indication of a gender effect for body weight gain: males did not show a significant improvement at 4 weeks of age, but were of normal weight at 8 weeks, while females showed improvement at both 4 and 8 weeks. By a preliminary genome-wide PCR allele scanning, three regions were found to be potentially associated with the milder phenotype. One on chr.1, defined by marker D1Mit36, one on chr. 9 defined by marker D9Mit90, and one on chr. 10, defined by marker D10Mit14.Conclusion
Potential modifier regions were found that have a positive impact on the inflammatory phenotype of the CF mouse small intestine and animal survival. Identification of polymorphisms in specific genes in these regions should provide important new information about genetic modifiers of the CF intestinal phenotype. 相似文献5.
Light-induced redox conversions of cytochrome f and plastocyanin in situ and electron transporst from H2O to NADP+ were studied by a dual-wave differential spectrophotometry under identical conditions and subsequently compared. The analysis in red and far red light, treatment by inhibitors, e. g. diurone and dibromothymoquinone, and the analysis of photoreactions during the greening of etiolated seedlings demonstrated that cytochrome f functions only in the non-cyclic chain of electron transport, whereas plastocyanin--both in the non-cyclic and in the cyclic electron transport chains. The jositions of cytochrome f and plastocyanin in various electron-transport chains are proposed. 相似文献

Background
Phylogenetic analysis of human complete mitochondrial DNA sequences has largely contributed to resolving phylogenies and antiquity of different lineages belonging to the majorhaplogroups L, N and M (East-Asian lineages). In the absence of whole mtDNA sequence information of M lineages reported in India that exhibits highest diversity within the sub-continent, the present study was undertaken to provide a detailed analysis of this haplogroup to precisely characterize the lineages and unravel their intricate phylogeny. 相似文献8.

A 25-year-old previously asymptomatic pregnant woman at 36 weeks'' gestation was noticed to have repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. A dilated left ventricle with moderately reduced systolic function was found on echocardiographic examination. This is a very rare presentation of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCMP) presenting with repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. 相似文献

Sawdust, a bulky waste generated by wood processing industries, has very few profitable and ecofriendly uses and poses a problem of proper disposal. Treatment with the fungusVolvariella volvaceae and a dilute solution of urea converted sawdust from a phytoinhibitory material to a phytostimulatory soil conditioner. In different types of soils, the soil conditioner increased the moisture retention and facilitated the cohesive interaction of particles. Analyses of the major biopolymers of sawdust after fungal treatment indicated that levels of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin decreased; however, these changes did not account for the plant growth stimulatory property attained by this material. 相似文献

The effects of prenatal stress on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity and brain glycocorticoid receptors were studied in neonatal male and female offspring, as well as the influence of neonatal glycocorticoid receptors blockade on hormonal stress reactivity of adult rats. The results showed that there were sexual differences in plasma corticosterone level and corticosteroid binding in the cortex and hypothalamus of 5-day old control rats. Prenatal stress increased basal level of corticosterone in female rats, decreased corticosterone binding in hypothalamus and hippocampus of male and female rats, and increased corticosteroid receptor level in the male cortex. Neonatal administration of glycocorticoid receptor antagonist did not change plasma corticosterone level in 5-day old rats, but prolonged hormonal stress response of the HPA axis in adult male rats and increased hormonal stress response in female ones. The character of the IIPA axis activity of male and female rats with neonatal blockade of glycocorticoid receptors correspond to hormonal stress response of prenatal stressed rats. These data suggest that change of brain glycocorticoid receptors function in neonatal period of development might be one of the mechanisms of prenatal stress influence on the HPA axis activity in the adulthood. 相似文献
