The work was focused on the investigation of possible dependencies between the development of viral infection in plants and the presence of high heavy metal concentrations in soil. Field experiments have been conducted in order to study the development of systemic tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection in Lycopersicon esculentum L. cv. Miliana plants under effect of separate salts of heavy metals Cu, Zn and Pb deposited in soil. As it is shown, simultaneous effect of viral infection and heavy metals in tenfold maximum permissible concentration leads to decrease of total chlorophyll content in experiment plants mainly due to the degradation of chlorophyll a. The reduction of chlorophyll concentration under the combined influence of both stress factors was more serious comparing to the separate effect of every single factor. Plants' treatment with toxic concentrations of lead and zinc leaded to slight delay in the development of systemic TMV infection together with more than twofold increase of virus content in plants that may be an evidence of synergism between these heavy metal's and virus' effects. Contrary, copper although decreased total chlorophyll content but showed protective properties and significantly reduced amount of virus in plants. 相似文献

For over a decade, p130Cas/BCAR1, HEF1/NEDD9/Cas-L, and Efs/Sin have defined the Cas (Crk-associated substrate) scaffolding protein family. Cas proteins mediate integrin-dependent signals at focal adhesions, regulating cell invasion and survival; at least one family member, HEF1, regulates mitosis. We here report a previously undescribed novel branch of the Cas protein family, designated HEPL (for HEF1-Efs-p130Cas-like). The HEPL branch is evolutionarily conserved through jawed vertebrates, and HEPL is found in some species lacking other members of the Cas family. The human HEPL mRNA and protein are selectively expressed in specific primary tissues and cancer cell lines, and HEPL maintains Cas family function in localization to focal adhesions, as well as regulation of FAK activity, focal adhesion integrity, and cell spreading. It has recently been demonstrated that upregulation of HEF1 expression marks and induces metastasis, whereas high endogenous levels of p130Cas are associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer, emphasizing the clinical relevance of Cas proteins. Better understanding of the complete protein family should help inform prediction of cancer incidence and prognosis. 相似文献

Two-hybrid systems have become favored tools for detection and analysis of protein interactions because of their low cost and ease of use compared to biochemical or biophysical interaction technologies. It is possible to augment the utility of two-hybrid systems and derivative systems such as dual-bait two-hybrid systems by adapting strategies that speed the analysis of the relative strength of a series of protein-protein associations. This report describes two simple techniques that employ either a flatbed scanner or a plate reader to quantitate the activity of colorimetric reporters such as LacZ or GusA commonly used in two-hybrid approaches. 相似文献

While many novel associations predicted by two-hybrid library screens reflect actual biological associations of two proteins in vivo, at times the functional co-relevance of two proteins scored as interacting in the two-hybrid system is unlikely. The reason for this positive score remains obscure, which leads to designating such clones as false positives. After investigating the effect of over-expressing a series of putative false positives in yeast, we determined that expression of some of these clones induces an array of biological effects in yeast, including altered growth rate and cell permeability, that bias perceived activity of LacZ reporters. Based on these observations, we identify four simple strategies that can assist in determining whether a protein is likely to have been selected in a two-hybrid screen because of indirect metabolic effects. 相似文献

Examination of the pattern of reagent creation and application in the two-hybrid system since 1989 reveals the expansion of a simple core technology to address increasingly sophisticated problems in protein interaction. As the technology has matured, its clear suitability for large-scale proteomic projects has made a major focus of its application the generation of global organismal protein interaction networks. In an inversion of emphasis, the increasing availability of such information now provides a master plan with the potential to specify the most promising directions for biological investigations (i.e., by directing the physiological validation of predicted critical protein-protein interactions). Recent derivatives of the two-hybrid system enable the targeting of such key interactions by facilitating the identification of essential amino acids conferring protein interaction specificity and of small molecules that selectively disrupt defined interaction pairs. Finally, the creation of mammalian expression systems based on two-hybrid principles became a new tool to create and probe novel biological systems. Taken in sum, this trajectory emphasizes the point that the creation of tools and the evolution of the idea of what is an interesting biological problem are in intimate dialogue. 相似文献

A notable difficulty in annotating genomic sequence is identifying the correct start codon in a gene. An important such case has been found with KRIT1, the cerebral cavernous malformation type 1 (CCM1) gene. Analysis of human and mouse genomic sequence encompassing the region containing KRIT1/Krit1 using exon/gene-prediction and comparative alignment programs revealed putative exons upstream of the previously described first exon. These additional candidate exons show significant matches to mouse and human ESTs that are contiguous with and extend upstream from the previously designated 5' end of the KRIT1 cDNA sequence. RT-PCR and 5'RACE experiments confirm the presence of four additional upstream coding exons that encode an additional 207 amino acids. Importantly, a novel frameshift mutation in one of these newly identified KRIT1 exons has been found in a CCM1 family. These data establish the authentic KRIT1 amino acid sequence and suggest that the additional KRIT1 exons may harbor mutations in other CCM1 families. In addition, these results provide another example of the utility of rigorous computational and comparative sequence analysis for refining gene structure. 相似文献
