The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) U(L)34 protein is likely a type II membrane protein that localizes within the nuclear membrane and is required for efficient envelopment of progeny virions at the nuclear envelope, whereas the U(L)31 gene product of HSV-1 is a nuclear matrix-associated phosphoprotein previously shown to interact with U(L)34 protein in HSV-1-infected cell lysates. For these studies, polyclonal antisera directed against purified fusion proteins containing U(L)31 protein fused to glutathione-S-transferase (U(L)31-GST) and U(L)34 protein fused to GST (U(L)34-GST) were demonstrated to specifically recognize the U(L)31 and U(L)34 proteins of approximately 34,000 and 30,000 Da, respectively. The U(L)31 and U(L)34 gene products colocalized in a smooth pattern throughout the nuclear rim of infected cells by 10 h postinfection. U(L)34 protein also accumulated in pleiomorphic cytoplasmic structures at early times and associated with an altered nuclear envelope late in infection. Localization of U(L)31 protein at the nuclear rim required the presence of U(L)34 protein, inasmuch as cells infected with a U(L)34 null mutant virus contained U(L)31 protein primarily in central intranuclear domains separate from the nuclear rim, and to a lesser extent in the cytoplasm. Conversely, localization of U(L)34 protein exclusively at the nuclear rim required the presence of the U(L)31 gene product, inasmuch as U(L)34 protein was detectable at the nuclear rim, in replication compartments, and in the cytoplasm of cells infected with a U(L)31 null virus. When transiently expressed in the absence of other viral factors, U(L)31 protein localized diffusely in the nucleoplasm, whereas U(L)34 protein localized primarily in the cytoplasm and at the nuclear rim. In contrast, coexpression of the U(L)31 and U(L)34 proteins was sufficient to target both proteins exclusively to the nuclear rim. The proteins were also shown to directly interact in vitro in the absence of other viral proteins. In cells infected with a virus lacking the U(S)3-encoded protein kinase, previously shown to phosphorylate the U(L)34 gene product, U(L)31 and U(L)34 proteins colocalized in small punctate areas that accumulated on the nuclear rim. Thus, U(S)3 kinase is required for even distribution of U(L)31 and U(L)34 proteins throughout the nuclear rim. Taken together with the similar phenotypes of the U(L)31 and U(L)34 deletion mutants, these data strongly suggest that the U(L)31 and U(L)34 proteins form a complex that accumulates at the nuclear membrane and plays an important role in nucleocapsid envelopment at the inner nuclear membrane. 相似文献

A novel class of pan-Pim kinase inhibitors was designed by modifying the CK2 inhibitor CX-4945. Introduction of a triazole or secondary amide functionality on the C-7 position and 2'-halogenoanilines on C-5 resulted in potent inhibitors of the Pim-1 and Pim-2 isoforms, with many analogs active at single digit nanomolar concentrations. The molecules inhibited the phosphorylation at Serine 112 of the apoptosis effector BAD, and had potent antiproliferative effects on the AML cell line MV-4-11 (IC(50) <30 nM). This work delivers an excellent lead-optimization platform for Pim targeting anticancer therapies. 相似文献

Enzymes from psychrophiles catalyze the reactions at low temperatures with higher specific activity. Among all the psychrophilic enzymes produced, cold active
β-galactosidase from marine psychrophiles revalorizes a new arena in numerous areas at industrial level. The hydrolysis of lactose in to glucose and galactose by
cold active β-galactosidase offers a new promising approach in removal of lactose from milk to overcome the problem of lactose intolerance. Herein we propose, a
3D structure of cold active β-galactosidase enzyme sourced from Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis by using Modeler 9v8 and best model was developed having
88% of favourable region in ramachandran plot. Modelling was followed by docking studies with the help of Auto dock 4.0 against the three substrates lactose,
ONPG and PNPG. In addition, comparative docking studies were also performed for the 3D model of psychrophilic β-galactosidase with mesophilic and
thermophilic enzymes. Docking studies revealed that binding affinity of enzyme towards the three different substrates is more for psychrophilic enzyme when
compared with mesophilic and thermophilic enzymes. It indicates that the enzyme has high specific activity at low temperature when compared with mesophilic
and thermophilic enzymes. 相似文献

Melanoma is the most lethal cutaneous cancer with a highly aggressive and metastatic phenotype. While recent genetic and epigenetic studies have shed new insights into the mechanism of melanoma development, the involvement of regulatory non‐coding RNAs remain unclear. Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of endogenous non‐protein‐coding RNAs with the capacity to regulate gene expression at multiple levels. Recent evidences have shown that lncRNAs can regulate many cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and invasion. In the melanoma, deregulation of a number of lncRNAs, such as HOTAIR, MALAT1, BANCR, ANRIL, SPRY‐IT1 and SAMMSON, have been reported. Our review summarizes the functional role of lncRNAs in melanoma and their potential clinical application for diagnosis, prognostication and treatment. 相似文献

Changes in odor quality discrimination following recovery from olfactory nerve transection 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
Following recovery from olfactory nerve transection, animals regain their
ability to discriminate between odors. Odor discrimination is restored
after new neurons establish connections with the olfactory bulb. However,
it is not known if the new connections alter odor quality perception. To
address this question, 20 adult hamsters were first trained to discriminate
between cinnamon and strawberry odors. After reaching criterion (> or =
90% correct response), half of the animals received a bilateral nerve
transection (BTX) and half a surgical sham procedure. Animals were not
tested again until day 40, a point in recovery when connections are
re-established with the bulb. When BTX animals were tested without food
reinforcement, they could not perform the odor discrimination task. Sham
animals, however, could discriminate, demonstrating that the behavioral
response had not been extinguished during the 40 day period. When
reinforcement was resumed, BTX animals were able to discriminate between
cinnamon and strawberry after four test sessions. In addition, their
ability to discriminate between these two familiar odors was no different
than that of BTX and sham animals tested with two novel odors, baby powder
and coffee. These findings suggest that, after recovery from nerve
transection, there are alterations in sensory perception and that
restoration of odor quality discrimination requires that the animal must
again learn to associate individual odor sensations with a behavioral
response.

Background
Highly sensitive and specific urine-based tests to detect either primary or recurrent bladder cancer have proved elusive to date. Our ever increasing knowledge of the genomic aberrations in bladder cancer should enable the development of such tests based on urinary DNA.Methods
DNA was extracted from urine cell pellets and PCR used to amplify the regions of the TERT promoter and coding regions of FGFR3, PIK3CA, TP53, HRAS, KDM6A and RXRA which are frequently mutated in bladder cancer. The PCR products were barcoded, pooled and paired-end 2 x 250 bp sequencing performed on an Illumina MiSeq. Urinary DNA was analysed from 20 non-cancer controls, 120 primary bladder cancer patients (41 pTa, 40 pT1, 39 pT2+) and 91 bladder cancer patients post-TURBT (89 cancer-free).Results
Despite the small quantities of DNA extracted from some urine cell pellets, 96% of the samples yielded mean read depths >500. Analysing only previously reported point mutations, TERT mutations were found in 55% of patients with bladder cancer (independent of stage), FGFR3 mutations in 30% of patients with bladder cancer, PIK3CA in 14% and TP53 mutations in 12% of patients with bladder cancer. Overall, these previously reported bladder cancer mutations were detected in 86 out of 122 bladder cancer patients (70% sensitivity) and in only 3 out of 109 patients with no detectable bladder cancer (97% specificity).Conclusion
This simple, cost-effective approach could be used for the non-invasive surveillance of patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancers harbouring these mutations. The method has a low DNA input requirement and can detect low levels of mutant DNA in a large excess of normal DNA. These genes represent a minimal biomarker panel to which extra markers could be added to develop a highly sensitive diagnostic test for bladder cancer. 相似文献9.

Protein kinase CK2 is a potential drug target for many diseases including cancer and inflammation disorders. The crystal structure of clinical candidate CX-4945 1 with CK2 revealed an indirect interaction with the protein through hydrogen bonding between the NH of the 3-chlorophenyl amine and a water molecule. Herein, we investigate the relevance of this hydrogen bond by preparing several novel tricyclic derivatives lacking a NH moiety at the same position. This SAR study allowed the discovery of highly potent CK2 inhibitors. 相似文献
