PGRP-S (Tag7) is an innate immunity protein involved in the antimicrobial defense systems, both in insects and in mammals. We have previously shown that Tag7 specifically interacts with several proteins, including Hsp70 and the calcium binding protein S100A4 (Mts1), providing a number of novel cellular functions. Here we show that Tag7–Mts1 complex causes chemotactic migration of lymphocytes, with NK cells being a preferred target. Cells of either innate immunity (neutrophils and monocytes) or acquired immunity (CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes) can produce this complex, which confirms the close connection between components of the 2 branches of immune response. 相似文献

A simple and efficient method for the preparation of pyrimidine 2'-O-hydroxyethoxymethylribonucleosides and 2'-O-hydroxypropoxymethylribonucleosides has been developed. These modified nucleosides were incorporated into oligoribonucleotides, which were shown to form stable RNA/RNA duplexes. The effect of 2' -O-modification in the antisense and sense strands of small interference RNA was evaluated in multi-drug resistant NIH 3T3 cells. 相似文献

We study the kinetics of prion fibril growth, described by the nucleated polymerization model analytically and by means of numerical experiments. The elementary processes of prion fibril formation lead us to a set of differential equations for the number of fibrils, their total mass, and the number of prion monomers. In difference to previous studies we analyze this set by explicitly taking into account the time-dependence of the prion monomer concentration. The theoretical results agree with experimental data, whereas the generally accepted hypothesis of constant monomer concentration leads to a fibril growth behavior which is not in agreement with experiments. The obtained size distribution of the prion fibril aggregates is shifted significantly toward shorter lengths as compared to earlier results, which leads to a enhanced infectivity of the prion material. Finally, we study the effect of filtering of the inoculated material on the incubation time of the disease. 相似文献

We present an efficient computational architecture designed using supervised machine learning model to predict amyloid fibril
forming protein segments, named AmylPepPred. The proposed prediction model is based on bio-physio-chemical properties of
primary sequences and auto-correlation function of their amino acid indices. AmylPepPred provides a user friendly web interface
for the researchers to easily observe the fibril forming and non-fibril forming hexmers in a given protein sequence. We expect that
this stratagem will be highly encouraging in discovering fibril forming regions in proteins thereby benefit in finding therapeutic
agents that specifically aim these sequences for the inhibition and cure of amyloid illnesses.

Cyclooxygenases (COXs) catalyze the rate-limiting step in the production of prostaglandins, bioactive compounds involved in
processes such as fever and sensitivity to pain, and are the target of aspirin-like drugs. COX genes have been cloned from coral, tunicates and vertebrates, and in all the phyla where they are found, there are two genes
encoding two COX isoenzymes; it is unclear whether these genes arose from an early single duplication event or from multiple
independent duplications in evolution. The intron-exon arrangement of COX genes is completely conserved in vertebrates and mostly conserved in all species. Exon boundaries largely define the four
functional domains of the encoded protein: the amino-terminal hydrophobic signal peptide, the dimerization domain, the membrane-binding
domain, and the catalytic domain. The catalytic domain of each enzyme contains distinct peroxidase and cyclooxygenase active
sites; COXs are classified as members of the myeloperoxidase family. All COXs are homodimers and monotopic membrane proteins
(inserted into only one leaflet of the membrane), and they appear to be targeted to the lumenal membrane of the endoplasmic
reticulum, where they are N-glycosylated. In mammals, the two COX genes encode a constitutive isoenzyme (COX-1) and an inducible isoenzyme (COX-2); both are of significant pharmacological
importance. 相似文献
