The growing importance of biocatalysis in the syntheses of enantiopure molecules results from the benefits of enzymes regarding selectivity and specificity of the reaction and ecological issues of the process. Ene‐reductases (ERs) from the old yellow enzyme family have received much attention in the last years. These flavo‐enzymes catalyze the trans‐specific reduction of activated C?C bonds, which is an important reaction in asymmetric synthesis, because up to two stereogenic centers can be created in one reaction. However, limitations of ERs described in the literature such as their moderate catalytic activity and their strong preference for NADPH promote the search for novel ERs with improved properties. In this study, we characterized nine novel ERs from cyanobacterial strains belonging to different taxonomic orders and habitats. ERs were identified with activities towards a broad spectrum of alkenes. The reduction of maleimide was catalyzed with activities of up to 35.5 U mg?1 using NADPH. Ketoisophorone and (R)‐carvone, which were converted to the highly valuable compounds (R)‐levodione and (2R,5R)‐dihydrocarvone, were reduced with reaction rates of up to 2.2 U mg?1 with NADPH. In contrast to other homologous ERs from the literature, NADH was accepted at moderate to high rates as well: Enzyme activities of up to 16.7 U mg?1 were obtained for maleimide and up to 1.3 U mg?1 for ketoisophorone and (R)‐carvone. Additionally, excellent stereoselectivities were achieved in the reduction of (R)‐carvone (97–99% de). In particular, AnabaenaER3 from Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413 and AcaryoER1 from Acaryochloris marina MBIC 11017 were identified as useful biocatalysts. Therefore, novel ERs from cyanobacteria with high catalytic efficiency were added to the toolbox for the asymmetric reduction of alkenes. Biotechnol.

十足目受精生物学研究概述 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
由于十足目精子的特殊结构———无鞭毛、不运动、核呈凝絮状、顶体结构复杂,且受精过程迅速,特别是精卵识别、顶体反应,常常在瞬间发生,加上卵子富含卵黄而不易制片,使其受精生物学研究与其它精子具鞭毛的动物相比报道较少。本文就十足目受精生物学的研究做一简要的... 相似文献

Fragile X‐associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of 55–200 CGG repeats in the 5′‐UTR of the FMR1 gene. FXTAS is characterized by action tremor, gait ataxia and impaired executive cognitive functioning. It has been proposed that FXTAS is caused by titration of RNA‐binding proteins by the expanded CGG repeats. Sam68 is an RNA‐binding protein involved in alternative splicing regulation and its ablation in mouse leads to motor coordination defects. Here, we report that mRNAs containing expanded CGG repeats form large and dynamic intranuclear RNA aggregates that recruit several RNA‐binding proteins sequentially, first Sam68, then hnRNP‐G and MBNL1. Importantly, Sam68 is sequestered by expanded CGG repeats and thereby loses its splicing‐regulatory function. Consequently, Sam68‐responsive splicing is altered in FXTAS patients. Finally, we found that regulation of Sam68 tyrosine phosphorylation modulates its localization within CGG aggregates and that tautomycin prevents both Sam68 and CGG RNA aggregate formation. Overall, these data support an RNA gain‐of‐function mechanism for FXTAS neuropathology, and suggest possible target routes for treatment options. 相似文献

Substantial evidence has shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) may be causally linked to the occurrence and progression of human diseases. Herein, we conducted an enrichment analysis to identify potential functional miRNA-disease associations (MDAs) in humans by integrating currently known biological data: miRNA-target interactions (MTIs), protein-protein interactions, and gene-disease associations. Two contributing factors to functional miRNA-disease associations were quantitatively considered: the direct effects of miRNA that target disease-related genes, and indirect effects triggered by protein-protein interactions. Ninety-nine miRNAs were scanned for possible functional association with 2223 MeSH-defined human diseases. Each miRNA was experimentally validated to target ≥ 10 mRNA genes. Putative MDAs were identified when at least one MTI was confidently validated for a disease. Overall, 19648 putative MDAs were found, of which 10.0% was experimentally validated. Further results suggest that filtering for miRNAs that target a greater number of disease-related genes (n ≥ 8) can significantly enrich for true MDAs from the set of putative associations (enrichment rate = 60.7%, adjusted hypergeometric p = 2.41×10−91). Considering the indirect effects of miRNAs further elevated the enrichment rate to 72.6%. By using this method, a novel MDA between miR-24 and ovarian cancer was found. Compared with scramble miRNA overexpression of miR-24 was validated to remarkably induce ovarian cancer cells apoptosis. Our study provides novel insight into factors contributing to functional MDAs by integrating large quantities of previously generated biological data, and establishes a feasible method to identify plausible associations with high confidence. 相似文献

Interleukin receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-1 binding protein 1 (IRAK1BP1) is a critical factor in preventing dangerous overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines by the innate immune system and in influencing the specificity of TLR responses. In this study, a first molluscan IRAK1BP1 gene, saIRAK1BP1, was cloned from the small abalone (Haliotis diversicolor). Its full-length cDNA sequence is 1047bp, with a 747bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 249 aa. The molecular mass of the deduced protein is approximately 28.1kDa with an estimated pI of 8.87, and shows highest identity (52%) to acorn worm Saccoglossus kowalevskii. Amino acid sequence analysis revealed that saIRAK1BP1 shares a conserved SIMPL domain. Quantitative real-time PCR was employed to investigate the tissue distribution of saIRAK1BP1 mRNA, and its expression in abalone under bacteria challenge and larvae at different developmental stages. The saIRAK1BP1 mRNA could be detected in all examined tissues, with the highest expression level in hemocytes, and was up-regulated in gills, kidneys and hemocytes after bacteria injection. Additionally, saIRAK1BP1 was constitutively expressed at all examined developmental stages. These results indicate that saIRAK1BP1 play an important role in the adult abalone immune system and might be essential in embryo and larval development in abalone. 相似文献

A selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase cDNA was obtained from green mud crab Scylla paramamosain (SpGPx) by homology PCR technique and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) methods. The 1135?bp full-length cDNA contains a 9?bp 5'-untranslated region (UTR), an open reading frame (ORF) of 564 bp encoded a deduced protein of 187 amino acids (aa), and a 562?bp 3'-UTR with a 100 bp conserved eukaryotic selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS). It involves a putative selenocysteine (Sec(40), or U(40)) residue which is encoded by an opal codon, (127)TGA(129), and forms an active site with residues Q(74) and W(142). Sequence characterization revealed that SpGPx contain a characteristic GPx signature motif 2 ((64)LAFPCNQF(71)), an active site motif ((152)WNFEKF(157)), a potential N-glycosylation site ((76)NTT(78)), and two residues (R(90) and R(168)) which contribute to the electrostatic architecture by directing the glutathione donor substrate. Multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis showed that SpGPx share a high level of identities and closer relationship with other selected invertebrate GPxs and vertebrate GPx1 and GPx2. Molecular modelling analysis results also supported these observations. Real time quantitative PCR analysis revealed that SpGPx was constitutively expressed in 10 selected tissues, and its expression level in gill and testis was higher than that in the other tissues (p?0.05). The SpGPx expression increased and then declined during ovarian and testicular development implying thatnscrpits yowed that SpGPx might play an important role in gonad development by protecting them from oxidative stress. The expression of SpGPx mRNA was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in hepatopancreas and haemocytes. The results suggested that SpGPx was implicated in the immune response induced by LPS and H(2)O(2). 相似文献
