The alanine-rich alpha-helical antifreeze protein from the winter flounder Pseudopleuronectes americanus adsorbs to specific planes of ice guided by an ice lattice match to threonine residues regularly spaced 16.6 A apart. We report here that by redesigning the winter flounder antifreeze peptide to incorporate a 27.1-A spacing between putative 'ice-binding' threonines, the deduced binding alignment of the helical molecule on the ice lattice is changed from the Miller indices directional vector [1102 ] to [2203 ]. Subsequent ice-binding characteristics are altered, including changes in adsorption specificity, decreases in thermal hysteresis activity and the formation of rotated hexagonal bipyramid ice crystal morphology.  相似文献

There is considerable interest in the sub‐cellular targeting and delivery of biomolecules, therapeutic and imaging agents, and nanoparticles and nanoparticle conjugates into organelles for therapeutic and imaging purposes. To date, a number of studies have used sorting peptides for targeted delivery of cargo into different cell organelles but not into lysosomes. In this study, the delivery of 13‐nm gold nanoparticles across the cell membrane followed by targeted localisation into the lysosomes of a mammalian cell line was examined using novel combinations of cell‐penetrating peptides and lysosomal sorting peptides conjugated to the nanoparticles. Using a combination of fluorescence spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy techniques, we show that these nanoconjugates were efficiently and selectively delivered into the lysosomes with minimal cytotoxic effects. This novel targeted delivery system may underpin the development of a new strategy for the treatment of lysosomal storage diseases by exploiting the large surface area of nanoparticles to deliver drugs or replacement enzymes directly to the lysosomes.

With the current interest in anti-sense and anti-gene technologies, an efficient, fast and less toxic synthesis protocol would be advantageous for the oligomerisation of Peptide Nucleic Acids (PNA). Most of the methods currently in use for the t-Boc synthesis of PNA's use TFA/m-cresol, pyridine, piperidine and capping reagents. In this work, a rapid synthesis protocol has been adapted from an earlier published peptide synthesis method allowing a reduction in cycle time from around 30 min down to 16 min. By utilising quantitative deprotection with 100% TFA, a coupling time of 10 min and a four-fold excess of monomer, this synthesis protocol has been used to synthesise a number of PNA's incorporating all four nucleotides of varying sequence, up to 17 residues in length.  相似文献

Bacterial meningitis is an infection of the thin membranes covering the brain and spinal cord by a number of microorganisms including Neisseria meningitidis, which can lead to permanent neurological damage in the event of late diagnosis. Given the quick onset and severity of the disease, there is a clear need for a rapid, sensitive and specific diagnostic technique. Here, we describe the development and evaluation of an acoustic wave sensor, the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), as a rapid immunosensor employing antibodies against the cell surface outer membrane protein 85 (OMP85) of N. meningitidis as an immobilized selective layer. These antibodies were directionally orientated as receptors by thin film deposition of structured polyvinylidene fluoride and Protein A. The sensitivity of this QCM immunosensor was further increased by conjugation of the OMP85 antigen to 50 nm gold nanoparticles providing reproducible detection of the target down to 300 ng/mL. Subsequent treatment of the QCM surface with an acidic glycine solution regenerated the immunosensor allowing each crystal to be used several times.  相似文献

Fasciola parasites (liver flukes) express numerous cathepsin L proteases that are believed to be involved in important functions related to host invasion and parasite survival. These proteases are evolutionarily divided into clades that are proposed to reflect their substrate specificity, most noticeably through the S(2) subsite. Single amino acid substitutions to residues lining this site, including amino acid residue 69 (aa69; mature cathepsin L5 numbering) can have profound influences on subsite architecture and influence enzyme specificity. Variations at aa69 among known Fasciola cathepsin L proteases include leucine, tyrosine, tryptophan, phenylalanine and glycine. Other amino acids (cysteine, serine) might have been expected at this site due to codon usage as cathepsin L isoenzymes evolved, but C69 and S69 have not been observed. The introduction of L69C and L69S substitutions into FhCatL5 resulted in low overall activity indicating their expression provides no functional advantage, thus explaining the absence of such variants in Fasciola. An FhCatL5 L69F variant showed an increase in the ability to cleave substrates with P(2) proline, indicating F69 variants expressed by the fluke would likely have this ability. An FhCatL2 Y69L variant showed a decreased acceptance of P(2) proline, further highlighting the importance of Y69 for FhCatL2 P(2) proline acceptance. Finally, the P(1)-P(4) specificity of Fasciola cathepsin L5 was determined and, unexpectedly, aspartic acid was shown to be well accepted at P(2,) which is unique amongst Fasciola cathepsins examined to date.  相似文献

Nucleotides and sugar nucleotides from coelomic oocytes of Bufo arenarum were extracted with trichloroacetic acid and analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography. The hypoxanthine and guanine were sequencially eluted from the column with water. Nucleotides and sugar nucleotides were eluted with a linear gradient of ammonium chloride. The first peak of ultraviolet adsorption eluted from the resin was a complex mixture of at least three substances. The main component was identified as cytidine diphosphocholine by chemical, enzymatic, and chromatographic analyses. Preliminary experiments suggest a possible role for this compound during oogenesis, since immature oocytes incubated in vitro with [14C]choline showed an active metabolism of this substance with rapid incorporation in choline phosphate, cytidine diphosphocholine, and lecithin.  相似文献
