It is known that α-glucosidase is linked with the antioxidant activity. Therefore, it is of interest to document the in- vitro and molecular docking analysis of chalconeimine derivatives with α-glucosidase (PDB ID: 2ZEO) for further consideration. 相似文献

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are frequently driven by mutations within the C-terminal domain (C-domain) of calreticulin (CRT). CRTDel52 and CRTIns5 are recurrent mutations. Oncogenic transformation requires both mutated CRT and the thrombopoietin receptor (Mpl), but the molecular mechanism of CRT-mediated constitutive activation of Mpl is unknown. We show that the acquired C-domain of CRTDel52 mediates both Mpl binding and disulfide-linked CRTDel52 dimerization. Cysteine mutations within the novel C-domain (C400A and C404A) and the conserved N-terminal domain (N-domain; C163A) of CRTDel52 are required to reduce disulfide-mediated dimers and multimers of CRTDel52. Based on these data and published structures of CRT oligomers, we identify an N-domain dimerization interface relevant to both WT CRT and CRTDel52. Elimination of disulfide bonds and ionic interactions at both N-domain and C-domain dimerization interfaces is required to abrogate the ability of CRTDel52 to mediate cell proliferation via Mpl. Thus, MPNs exploit a natural dimerization interface of CRT combined with C-domain gain of function to achieve cell transformation. 相似文献

There is extensive experimental data showing that the final pH and buffer composition after protein diafiltration (DF), particularly with monoclonal antibodies, can be considerably different than that in the DF buffer due to electrostatic interactions between the charged protein and the charged ions. Previous models for this behavior have focused on the final (equilibrium) partitioning and are unable to explain the complex pH and concentration profiles during the DF process. The objective of this study is to develop a new model for antibody DF based on solution of the transient mass balance equations, with the permeate concentrations of the charged species evaluated assuming Donnan equilibrium across the semipermeable membrane in combination with electroneutrality constraints. Model predictions are in excellent agreement with experimental data obtained during DF of both acidic and basic monoclonal antibodies, with the protein charge determined from independent electrophoretic mobility measurements. The model is able to predict the entire pH/histidine concentration profiles during DF, providing a framework for the development of DF processes that yield the desired antibody formulation. 相似文献

NMR study on the interaction between RPA and DNA decamer containing cis-syn cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer in the presence of XPA: implication for damage verification and strand-specific dual incision in nucleotide excision repair 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
In mammalian cells, nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the major pathway for the removal of bulky DNA adducts. Many of the key NER proteins are members of the XP family (XPA, XPB, etc.), which was named on the basis of its association with the disorder xerodoma pigmentosum. Human replication protein A (RPA), the ubiquitous single-stranded DNA-binding protein, is another of the essential proteins for NER. RPA stimulates the interaction of XPA with damaged DNA by forming an RPA–XPA complex on damaged DNA sites. Binding of RPA to the undamaged DNA strand is most important during NER, because XPA, which directs the excision nucleases XPG and XPF, must bind to the damaged strand. In this study, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to assess the binding of the tandem high affinity DNA-binding domains, RPA-AB, and of the isolated domain RPA-A, to normal DNA and damaged DNA containing the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) lesion. Both RPA-A and RPA-AB were found to bind non- specifically to both strands of normal and CPD- containing DNA duplexes. There were no differences observed when binding to normal DNA duplex was examined in the presence of the minimal DNA-binding domain of XPA (XPA-MBD). However, there is a drastic difference for CPD-damaged DNA duplex as both RPA-A and RPA-AB bind specifically to the undamaged strand. The strand-specific binding of RPA and XPA to the damaged duplex DNA shows that RPA and XPA play crucial roles in damage verification and guiding cleavage of damaged DNA during NER. 相似文献

The B cell Ag receptor (BCR) can distinguish subtle differences in Ag structure and trigger differential responses. In this study, we analyzed the effects of Ag valency on the signaling and Ag-targeting functions of the BCR. Although both paucivalent and polyvalent Ags induced the redistribution of the surface BCR into polarized caps, polyvalent Ag-induced BCR caps persisted. Ganglioside G(M1), a lipid raft marker, and tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, but not CD45 and transferrin receptor, were concentrated in BCR caps, suggesting BCR caps as surface-signaling microdomains. Prolonged BCR caps were concomitant with an increase in the level and duration of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and a reduction in BCR internalization and movement to late endosomes/lysosomes. Thus, Ag valency influences B cell responses by modulating the stability of BCR-signaling microdomains and BCR trafficking. 相似文献

Background
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Endotoxin is hypothesized to play an important role in chronic inflammation associated with Type-1 diabetes (T1DM) and its complications. Endotoxin core antibodies (EndoCAb), LPS binding protein (LBP) and soluble CD14 (sCD14) act as modulators of LPS induced activation of innate immune system in vivo. For the present study we estimated the levels of LPS and its translocation markers in T1DM subjects with and without microvascular complications (MVC) and correlate them with clinical parameters of T1DM and serum inflammatory cytokine levels (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and GM-CSF).Methods
A total of 197 subjects (64 normal glucose tolerance (NGT) subjects, 97 T1DM subjects without MVC and 36 with MVC) were included in this study and the levels of serum LPS, its translocation markers and cytokines measured by immunoassays.Results
Compared to NGT, T1DM subjects (both with and without MVC) had significantly higher levels of LPS, reduced levels of LBP and EndoCAb along with significant increase in the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and GM-CSF (p<0.05). No significant change was seen in the levels of these biomarkers between T1DM subjects with and without MVC.Conclusions
Decreased levels of EndoCAb and LBP suggest sustained endotoxin activity in T1DM subjects even before the onset of microvascular complications. 相似文献9.

Chromatin structure is greatly influenced by histone tail post-translational modifications (PTM), which also play a central role in epigenetic processes. Antibodies against modified histone tails are central research reagents in chromatin biology and molecular epigenetics. We applied Celluspots peptide arrays for the specificity analysis of 36 commercial antibodies from different suppliers, which are directed towards modified histone tails. The arrays contained 384 peptides from eight different regions of the N-terminal tails of histones, viz. H3 1–19, 7–26, 16–35 and 26–45, H4 1–19 and 11–30, H2A 1–19 and H2B 1–19, featuring 59 post-translational modifications in many different combinations. Using various controls we document the reliability of the method. Our analysis revealed previously undocumented details in the specificity profiles of the tested antibodies. Most of the antibodies bound well to the PTM they have been raised for, but some failed. In addition, some antibodies showed high cross-reactivity and most antibodies were inhibited by specific additional PTMs close to the primary one. Furthermore, specificity profiles for antibodies directed toward the same modification sometimes were very different. The specificity of antibodies used in epigenetic research is an important issue. We provide a catalog of antibody specificity profiles for 36 widely used commercial histone tail PTM antibodies. Better knowledge about the specificity profiles of antibodies will enable researchers to implement necessary control experiments in biological studies and allow more reliable interpretation of biological experiments using these antibodies.Key words: histone modification, histone methylation, histone acetylation, histone phosphorylation, chromatin, antibody, specificity, ChIP 相似文献
