The complete primary structure of the constant part of the mu-chain-disease protein, BOT, was established. It includes the whole CH2, CH3 and CH4 domains. two amino acid changes were found, at positions 309 (Ser leads to Gly) and 333 (Val leads to Gly) (GAL numbering). In two additional monoclonal mu chains (SCO and CO), the same positions showed an amino acid variability. From these data it may be concluded that four types of mu chains exist in the human: (1) GAL type with Ser-309 and Val-333; (2) OU type with Gly-309 and Val-333; (3) SCO type with Ser-309 and Gly-333; (4) BOT/CO type with Gly-309 and Gly-333. The meaning of this molecular polymorphism is discussed. 相似文献

Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) interacts with the dynein light chain Tctex1 and the heat-shock protein PBP74 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The voltage-dependent anion-selective channel 1 (VDAC1), i.e. eukaryotic porin, functions as a channel in membranous structures as described for the outer mitochondrial membrane, the cell membrane, endosomes, caveolae, the sarcoplasmatic reticulum, synaptosomes, and post-synaptic density fraction.The identification of VDAC1 interacting proteins may be a promising approach for better understanding the biological context and function of the channel protein. In this study human VDAC1 was used as a bait protein in a two-hybrid screening, which is based on the Sos recruitment system (SRS). hVDAC1 interacts with the dynein light chain Tctex-1 and the heat-shock protein peptide-binding protein 74 (PBP74)/mitochondrial heat-shock protein 70 (mtHSP70)/glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75)/mortalin in vivo. Both interactions were confirmed by overlay-assays using recombinant partner proteins and purified hVDAC1. Indirect immunofluorescence on HeLa cells indicates a co-localisation of hVDAC1 with the dynein light chain and the PBP74. In addition, HeLa cells were transfected transiently with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-hVDAC1 fusion proteins, which also clearly co-localise with both proteins. The functional relevance of the identified protein interactions was analysed in planar lipid bilayer (PLB) experiments. In these experiments both recombinant binding partners altered the electrophysiological properties of hVDAC1. While rTctex-1 increases the voltage-dependence of hVDAC1 slightly, the rPBP74 drastically minimises the voltage-dependence, indicating a modulation of channel properties in each case. Since the identified proteins are known to be involved in the transport or processing of proteins, the results of this study represent additional evidence of membrane-associated trafficking of the voltage-dependent anion-selective channel 1. 相似文献

Human NEFA is an EF-hand, leucine zipper protein containing a signal sequence. To confirm the calcium binding capacity of NEFA, recombinant NEFA analogous to the mature protein and mutants with deletions in the EF-hand domain were expressed in Pichia pastoris and secreted into the culture medium at high yield. The calcium binding activity of each purified protein was measured by a modified equilibrium dialysis using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator FURA-2 and atomic absorption spectroscopy. A stoichiometry of 2 mol Ca2+/mol NEFA was determined. The Ca2+ binding constants were resolved by intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy. Fluorescence titration exhibited two classes of Ca2+ binding sites with Kd values of 0.08 microM and 0.2 microM. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy showed an increase from 30 to 43% in the amount of alpha-helix in NEFA after addition of calcium ions. Limited proteolytic digestion indicated a Ca2+ dependent conformational change accompanied by an altered accessibility to the enzyme. 相似文献

The complete primary structure of the mu heavy-chain disease (mu-HCD) protein BOT has been determined. The monomeric HCD-mu-chain consists of 391 amino-acid residues, lacking the VH and mu CH1 domains but including the entire CH2, CH3 and CH4 domains (349 residues). The sequence of the preceding 42 N-terminal residues which we designate as the "pre-C-part" presents no homology to any known variable or constant immunoglobulin sequence, but contains an internal homology of positions 10-19 to positions 20-29. The origin of the "pre-C-part" structure and the deletion of the mu CH1 domain of protein BOT are discussed. 相似文献

The divergent domains of the NEFA and nucleobindin proteins are derived from an EF-hand ancestor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The human protein NEFA (DNA binding, EF-hand, Acidic region) has previously
been isolated from a KM3 cell line and immunolocalized on the plasma
membrane, in the cytoplasma, and in the culture medium. Sequence analysis
of a cDNA clone encoding NEFA identified a hydrophilic domain, two
EF-hands, and a leucine zipper at the C- terminus. These characters are
shared with nucleobindin (Nuc). In this paper we have further characterized
NEFA and probed its evolutionary origins. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra
of recombinant NEFA indicated a helical content of 51% and showed that the
EF-hands are capable of binding Ca2+. Experiments with recombinant NEFA and
synthesized peptides revealed that the leucine zipper cannot form a
homodimer. The leucine zipper may allow heterodimer formation of NEFA and
an unknown protein. Phylogenetic analyses suggest that this protein is
derived from a four-domain EF-hand ancestor with subsequent duplications
and fusions. The leucine zipper and putative DNA-binding domains of NEFA
have evolved secondarily from existing EF-hand sequences. These analyses
provide insights into how complex proteins may originate and trace the
precursor of NEFA to the common ancestor of eukaryotes.

NUCB1, the Drosophila melanogaster homolog of the mammalian EF-hand proteins NEFA and nucleobindin. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Mammalian NEFA and nucleobindin are calcium-binding proteins containing a signal peptide, two EF-hand motifs, acidic and basic regions and a leucine-zipper motif. Although they have been discussed to be involved in autoimmunity, apoptosis and calcium homeostasis in the Golgi apparatus and bone matrix, their exact role remains unknown. Here we report the cloning of their Drosophila homolog, nucb1, as well as the analysis of its expression pattern during embryogenesis and the subcellular localization of the NUCB1 protein. The nucb1 mRNA and the NUCB1 protein were found to be expressed maternally and zygotically, and they accumulate ubiquitously at low levels during all embryonic stages due to a maternal component. From stage 11 onward, high levels of zygotic expression can be detected specifically in the salivary glands and their placodes. In contrast to the known mammalian family members, the NUCB1 protein localizes in a subpattern of cytoplasmic substructures, probably the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

Golgi retention of human protein NEFA is mediated by its N-terminal Leu/Ile-rich region. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The subcellular localization of the human Ca(2+)-binding EF-hand/leucine zipper protein NEFA was studied in HeLa cells by immunofluorescence microscopy. Double immunostaining using mouse anti-NEFA monoclonal antibody 1H8D12 and rabbit anti-ERD2 polyclonal antibody proved that NEFA is localized in the Golgi apparatus. The result was confirmed by the expression of NEFA-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein in the Golgi in the same cell line. Cycloheximide treatment proved NEFA to be a Golgi-resident protein. Seven NEFA deletion mutants were constructed to ascertain the peptide region relevant for Golgi retention. The expression of each NEFA-GFP variant was detected by fluorescence microscopy and immunoblotting. Only the DeltaN mutant, lacking the N-terminal Leu/Ile-rich region, failed to be retained in the Golgi after cycloheximide treatment. The other six deletion mutants in which either the basic region, the complete EF-hand pair domain, the two EF-hand motifs separately, the leucine zipper and the leucine zipper plus the C-terminal region is deleted, were localized to the Golgi. The peptide sequence within the Leu/Ile-rich region is discussed as a novel Golgi retention motif. 相似文献

Human voltage-dependent anion-selective channel expressed in the plasmalemma of Xenopus laevis oocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Recent studies indicate a plasmalemmal localisation of eukaryotic porin, i.e. voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC), and there is evidence that the channel in this cell compartment is engaged in cell volume regulation. Until recently, others and we have used immuno-topochemical and biochemical methods to demonstrate the integration of the channel into the cell membrane and endoplasmic reticulum of vertebrate cells. In the present study, we used molecular biological methods to induce the heterologous expression of tagged human type-1 porin in oocytes of Xenopus laevis and to illustrate its appearance at the plasma membrane of these cells. Applying confocal fluorescent microscopy, green fluorescent protein attached to the C-terminus of porin could clearly be recorded at the cell surface. N-terminal green fluorescent protein-porin fusion proteins remained in the cytoplasm, indicating a strong influence of the porin N-terminus on protein trafficking to the plasma membrane. FLAG-tagged porin was also expressed in frog oocytes. Here, plasmalemmal expression was observed using anti-FLAG M2 monoclonal antibodies and gold-conjugated secondary antibodies, followed by silver enhancement through scanning electron microscopy. In contrast to the EGFP-porin fusion protein, the influence of the small FLAG-epitope (8 amino acids) did not prevent plasmalemmal expression of N-terminally tagged porin. These results indicate the definite expression of human type-1 porin in the plasma membrane of Xenopus oocytes. They thus corroborate our early data on the extra-mitochondrial expression of the eukaryotic porin channel and are essential for future electrophysiological studies on the channel. 相似文献
