Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) adsorb to ice crystals and inhibit their growth, leading to non-colligative freezing point depression. Crops like spring wheat, that are highly susceptible to frost damage, can potentially be made frost tolerant by expressing AFPs in the cytoplasm and apoplast where ice recrystallisation leads to cellular damage. The protein sequence for HPLC-6 α-helical antifreeze protein from winter flounder was rationally redesigned after removing the prosequences in the native protein. Wheat nuclear gene preferred amino acid codons were used to synthesize a recombinant antifreeze gene, rAFPI. Antifreeze protein was targeted to the apoplast using a Murine leader peptide sequence from the mAb24 light chain or retained in the endoplasmic reticulum using C-terminus KDEL sequence. The coding sequences were placed downstream of the rice Actin promoter and Actin-1 intron and upstream of the nopaline synthase terminator in the plant expression vectors. Transgenic wheat lines were generated through micro projectile bombardment of immature embryos of spring wheat cultivar Seri 82. Levels of antifreeze protein in the transgenic lines without any targeting peptide were low (0.06–0.07%). The apoplast-targeted protein reached a level of 1.61% of total soluble protein, 90% of which was present in the apoplast. ER-retained protein accumulated in the cells at levels up to 0.65% of total soluble proteins. Transgenic wheat line T-8 with apoplast-targeted antifreeze protein exhibited the highest levels of antifreeze activity and provided significant freezing protection even at temperatures as low as −7°C.  相似文献

The potential of macrocyclic peptides as therapeutics has garnered much attention over the last several years. Unlike their linear counterparts, macrocycles have higher resistance to enzymatic degradation and often display improved bioavailability. However, macrocycles are typically not lipophilic enough for cellular membrane penetration, which prevents them from interacting with intracellular targets. Methods to increase cellular permeability have involved the incorporation of bicyclic scaffolds, d-amino acids and N-methylation of amides. These modifications exert their effect through conformational control of macrocycles and have been well studied in the literature. In contrast, the structural consequences of heterocycle incorporation into macrocyclic rings has not been as exhaustively investigated. In this mini-review we discuss key examples in which heterocycles influence the conformational stability and other properties of macrocycles.  相似文献

Vitamin A deficiency remains one of the world's major public health problems despite food fortification and supplements strategies. Biofortification of staple crops with enhanced levels of pro‐vitamin A (PVA) offers a sustainable alternative strategy to both food fortification and supplementation. As a proof of concept, PVA‐biofortified transgenic Cavendish bananas were generated and field trialed in Australia with the aim of achieving a target level of 20 μg/g of dry weight (dw) β‐carotene equivalent (β‐CE) in the fruit. Expression of a Fe'i banana‐derived phytoene synthase 2a (MtPsy2a) gene resulted in the generation of lines with PVA levels exceeding the target level with one line reaching 55 μg/g dw β‐CE . Expression of the maize phytoene synthase 1 (ZmPsy1) gene, used to develop ‘Golden Rice 2’, also resulted in increased fruit PVA levels although many lines displayed undesirable phenotypes. Constitutive expression of either transgene with the maize polyubiquitin promoter increased PVA accumulation from the earliest stage of fruit development. In contrast, PVA accumulation was restricted to the late stages of fruit development when either the banana 1‐aminocyclopropane‐1‐carboxylate oxidase or the expansin 1 promoters were used to drive the same transgenes. Wild‐type plants with the longest fruit development time had also the highest fruit PVA concentrations. The results from this study suggest that early activation of the rate‐limiting enzyme in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway and extended fruit maturation time are essential factors to achieve optimal PVA concentrations in banana fruit.  相似文献

In mammals scavenger receptors (SR) are expressed by monocytic-macrophage lineage cells and B-cells. Studies of various teleost species have indirectly demonstrated the presence of SR receptors on phagocytic or endothelial cells by showing the uptake of SR ligands (i.e. derivatised (acetylated) lipoproteins) by these cells. In the present study, nonspecific cytotoxic cells (NCC) were examined for membrane expression of an SR-like protein. Approximately 15-25% of purified NCC expressed scavenger receptor class A (SR-A) demonstrated by binding by a monoclonal (2F8) specific for mouse SR-A (types I, II). Flow cytometric analysis determined that SR binding cells had the same size and 'side scatter' characteristics as NCC. Two colour flow analysis of NCC demonstrated that only a subset of NCC expressed the SR-A-like protein and non-NCC were SR-A negative. Membrane expression of SR on NCC was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. Analysis of the tissue distribution of SR bearing cells demonstrated that in both catfish and tilapia, SR-A was expressed by NCC in the peripheral blood, spleen and anterior kidney. Experiments were also done to determine if the ligands known to bind mammalian SR-A had a similar specificity for the teleost receptor. Cold competition binding experiments determined that anti-SR-A antibody competed with and reduced biotinylated polyguanosine 20-mer binding to NCC by approximately 40%. Two other types of ligands known to bind (mammalian) SR-A (i.e. polyvinyl sulphate and dextran sulphate) likewise decreased anti-SR-A antibody binding to NCC by 40%. These studies for the first time demonstrated that NCC express the teleost orthologue of mammalian SR-A, suggesting that NCC may participate in physiologic regulation of lipid metabolism in addition to functions of innate immunity.  相似文献

17 species of rotifers have been recorded from Lake Surinsar, Jammu (J & K), India of which some are either exclusively limnetic (Brachionus angularis, Hexarthra sp., Filinia opliensis), or littoral (Brachionus patulus, M. ventralis, Trichotoria sp., Platyias quadricornis, Lecane (Monostyla) decipiens, L (M), bulla and Lecane sp.) and others (Keratella tropica, Anuraeopsis fissa, Brachionus quadridentatus, B. calyciflorus, Trichocera sp., T. similis, and Polyarthra sp.) seem to be wandering species. Seasonal maxima for both littoral and limnetic zones are reported. Most population maxima are contributed mainly by one or at best two species.Physico-chemical factors like temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, free carbon dioxide, calcium, magnesium, and total alkalinity have been studied and their infuence on these rotifer species are discussed. On their thermal responses, the available rotifer species have been classified as warm stenothermal, cold stenothermal or eurythermal. The importance of Mytilina ventralis as a biological indicator for dissolved oxygen in this lake has been pointed out.  相似文献

The wild-type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (WIP1) is a serine/threonine phosphatase that negatively regulates multiple proteins involved in DNA damage response including p53, CHK2, Histone H2AX, and ATM, and it has been shown to be overexpressed or amplified in human cancers including breast and ovarian cancers. We examined WIP1 mRNA levels across multiple tumor types and found the highest levels in breast cancer, leukemia, medulloblastoma and neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is an exclusively TP53 wild type tumor at diagnosis and inhibition of p53 is required for tumorigenesis. Neuroblastomas in particular have previously been shown to have 17q amplification, harboring the WIP1 (PPM1D) gene and associated with poor clinical outcome. We therefore sought to determine whether inhibiting WIP1 with a selective antagonist, GSK2830371, can attenuate neuroblastoma cell growth through reactivation of p53 mediated tumor suppression. Neuroblastoma cell lines with wild-type TP53 alleles were highly sensitive to GSK2830371 treatment, while cell lines with mutant TP53 were resistant to GSK2830371. The majority of tested neuroblastoma cell lines with copy number gains of the PPM1D locus were also TP53 wild-type and sensitive to GSK2830371A; in contrast cell lines with no copy gain of PPM1D were mixed in their sensitivity to WIP1 inhibition, with the primary determinant being TP53 mutational status. Since WIP1 is involved in the cellular response to DNA damage and drugs used in neuroblastoma treatment induce apoptosis through DNA damage, we sought to determine whether GSK2830371 could act synergistically with standard of care chemotherapeutics. Treatment of wild-type TP53 neuroblastoma cell lines with both GSK2830371 and either doxorubicin or carboplatin resulted in enhanced cell death, mediated through caspase 3/7 induction, as compared to either agent alone. Our data suggests that WIP1 inhibition represents a novel therapeutic approach to neuroblastoma that could be integrated with current chemotherapeutic approaches.  相似文献

The potency of clinical-grade T cells can be improved by combining gene therapy with immunotherapy to engineer a biologic product with the potential for superior (i) recognition of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), (ii) persistence after infusion, (iii) potential for migration to tumor sites, and (iv) ability to recycle effector functions within the tumor microenvironment. Most approaches to genetic manipulation of T cells engineered for human application have used retrovirus and lentivirus for the stable expression of CAR1-3. This approach, although compliant with current good manufacturing practice (GMP), can be expensive as it relies on the manufacture and release of clinical-grade recombinant virus from a limited number of production facilities. The electro-transfer of nonviral plasmids is an appealing alternative to transduction since DNA species can be produced to clinical grade at approximately 1/10th the cost of recombinant GMP-grade virus. To improve the efficiency of integration we adapted Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon and transposase for human application4-8. Our SB system uses two DNA plasmids that consist of a transposon coding for a gene of interest (e.g. 2nd generation CD19-specific CAR transgene, designated CD19RCD28) and a transposase (e.g. SB11) which inserts the transgene into TA dinucleotide repeats9-11. To generate clinically-sufficient numbers of genetically modified T cells we use K562-derived artificial antigen presenting cells (aAPC) (clone #4) modified to express a TAA (e.g. CD19) as well as the T cell costimulatory molecules CD86, CD137L, a membrane-bound version of interleukin (IL)-15 (peptide fused to modified IgG4 Fc region) and CD64 (Fc-γ receptor 1) for the loading of monoclonal antibodies (mAb)12. In this report, we demonstrate the procedures that can be undertaken in compliance with cGMP to generate CD19-specific CAR+ T cells suitable for human application. This was achieved by the synchronous electro-transfer of two DNA plasmids, a SB transposon (CD19RCD28) and a SB transposase (SB11) followed by retrieval of stable integrants by the every-7-day additions (stimulation cycle) of γ-irradiated aAPC (clone #4) in the presence of soluble recombinant human IL-2 and IL-2113. Typically 4 cycles (28 days of continuous culture) are undertaken to generate clinically-appealing numbers of T cells that stably express the CAR. This methodology to manufacturing clinical-grade CD19-specific T cells can be applied to T cells derived from peripheral blood (PB) or umbilical cord blood (UCB). Furthermore, this approach can be harnessed to generate T cells to diverse tumor types by pairing the specificity of the introduced CAR with expression of the TAA, recognized by the CAR, on the aAPC.  相似文献

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is one of the most devastating diseases of banana (Musa spp.). Apart from resistant cultivars, there are no effective control measures for the disease. We investigated whether the transgenic expression of apoptosis-inhibition-related genes in banana could be used to confer disease resistance. Embryogenic cell suspensions of the banana cultivar, 'Lady Finger', were stably transformed with animal genes that negatively regulate apoptosis, namely Bcl-xL, Ced-9 and Bcl-2 3' UTR, and independently transformed plant lines were regenerated for testing. Following a 12-week exposure to Foc race 1 in small-plant glasshouse bioassays, seven transgenic lines (2 × Bcl-xL, 3 × Ced-9 and 2 × Bcl-2 3' UTR) showed significantly less internal and external disease symptoms than the wild-type susceptible 'Lady Finger' banana plants used as positive controls. Of these, one Bcl-2 3' UTR line showed resistance that was equivalent to that of wild-type Cavendish bananas that were included as resistant negative controls. Further, the resistance of this line continued for 23-week postinoculation at which time the experiment was terminated. Using TUNEL assays, Foc race 1 was shown to induce apoptosis-like features in the roots of wild-type 'Lady Finger' plants consistent with a necrotrophic phase in the life cycle of this pathogen. This was further supported by the observed reduction in these effects in the roots of the resistant Bcl-2 3' UTR-transgenic line. This is the first report on the generation of transgenic banana plants with resistance to Fusarium wilt.  相似文献

Bovine serum albumin and preparations of cell sap from malaria parasites and normal erythrocytes were tested for ability to protect cellular membranes against the toxicity of ferriprotoporphyrin IX (FP) and a chloroquine-FP complex. Suspensions of Plasmodium berghei (approximately 7 × 106 parasites per ml, isolated from saponin-lysed, infected erythrocytes) were used as a test system. Toxicity was monitored by measuring changes in turbidity of these suspensions at 700 nm. Parasite cell sap (0.56 mg protein per ml) and albumin (1 mg per ml) completely prevented the toxicity of 40 μM FP. Erythrocyte cell sap (8.6 mg of hemoglobin per ml) provided only partial protection from 40 μM FP. Neither the cell sap preparations nor albumin eliminated the toxicity of a chloroquine-FP complex formed from 20 μM chloroquine and 40 μM FP. These observations suggest that the cell sap preparations contain FP binding substances and that the mode of action of chloroquine may be to shunt FP away from a nontoxic complex with these substances and into a toxic chloroquine-FP complex.  相似文献

Mature-embryo derived primary calli of the basmati rice (Oryza sativa L.) cv Karnal Local showed significant enhancement in in vitro green-plantlet regeneration efficiency through modification of nitrogen content of the callusing medium. Using KNO3 as the source of nitrate nitrogen and (NH4)2SO4 as the source of ammonium nitrogen, forty-five media combinations involving 9 levels of KNO3 (0–40 mM) and 5 concentrations (0–6.5 mM) of (NH4)2SO4 were examined. The highest frequency of plantlet regeneration (100%) and a maximum number of green-plantlets (~ 7) per embryo-derived primary callus was obtained in calli derived from the medium having 35 mM KNO3 and 5 mM (NH4)2SO4. Higher concentrations of KNO3 and/or (NH4)2SO4 showed a decline in the regeneration efficiency. It was also observed that although the nitrogen content of the callus induction medium had a profound effect on the regenerability of the callus, the nitrogen composition of the regeneration medium also affected it significantly.  相似文献
