Receptors for the Fc fragment of IgG (FcγRs) constitute one of the main effector mechanisms through which IgG immune complexes exert their action. Four FcγRs, FcγRI (CD64) with high affinity, FcγRI with intermediate affinity, FcγRII (CD32) and FcγRIII (CD16) with low affinity, have been identified. There are three FcγRII isoforms (activating FcγRIIa and FcγRIIc, and inhibiting FcγRIIb) existing in humans, one isoform in mice (inhibiting FcγRIIb), and two isoforms in cattle (inhibiting FcγRIIb, activating FcγRIIc). Two splice sub-isoforms of FcγRIIb, FcγRIIb1(b1) and FcγRIIb2(b2), have been identified in humans, mice and cattle, however, few of FcγRIIb sub-isoforms have been investigated in pig. In this study, we describe the molecular cloning, sequencing and characterization of a porcine FcγRIIb sub-isoform, FcγRIIb1. The cDNA encoding porcine FcγRIIb1 was isolated from peripheral blood leucocytes RNA with RT-PCR. The porcine FcγRIIb1 cDNA contains a 951bp open-reading frame, encoding a 316 amino acid transmembrane glycoprotein composed of two immunoglobulin (Ig)-like extracellular domains, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic tail with an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibiting motif (ITIM). The porcine FcγRIIb1 shares 98.3% homology and has a 19 amino acid in-frame insertion in cytoplasmic tail when compared with amino acid sequence of DQ026064. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that the glycoprotein encoded by the porcine FcγRIIb1 cDNA was expressed in the stable transfected COS-7 cells, and an immunoglobulin-binding assay showed that it had binding activity for IgG immune complexes. Identification of the porcine FcγRIIb1 will help our understanding of the molecular basis of IgG-FcγR interaction in the porcine immune response.  相似文献

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Fc receptors (FcγRs) bind to immune complexes through interactions with the Fc region of IgG to initiate or inhibit the defense mechanism of the leukocytes on which they are expressed. In this study, we describe the cloning, sequencing and characterization of ovine FcγRII. By screening a translated expression sequence tag (EST) database with the protein sequence of bovine IgG Fc receptor II, we identified a putative ovine homologue. Using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), we isolated the cDNA encoding ovine FcγRII from peripheral blood leucocyte RNA. The ovine FcγRII cDNA contains an 894 bp open-reading frame, encoding a 297 amino acid transmembrane glycoprotein composed of two immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic tail with an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM). The glycoprotein encoded by the cloned cDNA was then expressed on the surface of COS-7 cells and immunoglobulin-binding assays show that it binds ovine IgG1, but not IgG2. Identification of the ovine FcγRII will aid in the understanding of the molecular basis of IgG–FcγR interaction.  相似文献

Cloning and characterization of porcine resistin gene   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Resistin is a member of resistin-like molecules (RELMs) and a hormone secreted from mature adipocytes in rodents and leukocytes in human. We now report the cloning and characterization of the full-length porcine resistin cDNA and gene. Sequence analysis indicated that the pig resistin cDNA sequence had an open reading frame of 330 bp encoding a 12 kDa protein of 109 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 75.2% identity to the human resistin. The porcine resistin gene was composed of four exons and had exactly the same exon structure as the human resistin gene. The tissue distribution of porcine resistin mRNA was assessed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Resistin gene expression was the highest in porcine leukocytes and low in adipose tissue. Resistin protein could be detected in porcine serum by western blotting and it circulated in serum as dimers and trimers. We provided the first evidence that resistin was abundantly expressed in porcine leukocytes and had an expression pattern similar to that in human resistin mRNA and protein. This suggests that the pig may be a suitable animal model for studying the function of resistin in human insulin resistance.  相似文献

The receptor I for the Fc region of immunoglobulin G (Fc gamma RI) is a member of the Ig superfamily with a high affinity, and it mediates antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and immune complex clearance. In this study, a cDNA encoding the bovine Fc gamma RI was cloned. The full-length cDNA sequence is 1050 bp long with a short 5'- and long 3'-untranslated end regions, which codes for 349 amino acids and contains a signal peptide, an extracellular region with three Ig-like domains, and transmembrane and intracytoplasmic domains. Five potential N-linked glycosylation sites are recognized in this sequence. Compared with the sequences of human and mouse Fc gamma RI, the homologies of nucleotide sequences are 80 and 69% and homologies of deduced amino acid sequences are 66 and 55%, respectively. It is shown that the sequences of the monomeric IgG binding domain in these three species of Fc gamma RI are highly conserved.  相似文献

cDNAs encoding four different canine immunoglobulin G (caIgG) γ chains were identified in this study. One of these IgG γ chain cDNAs, (caIgG-A), represents 92.5% of the IgG γ chain cDNAs in a dog spleen cell cDNA library; a second partial IgG γ chain cDNA (caIgG-B) was also identified in the library. The other two IgG γ chain cDNAs (caIgG-C and caIgG-D) were RT-PCR amplified from canine lymphoma samples. Comparison of the four different canine IgG γ chain cDNAs showed homologies from 83.6 to 89.2% and from 73.1 to 81.8% at nucleotide and amino acid sequence levels, respectively. Despite the high similarity in CH1, CH2 and CH3 domains among the different caIgG γ chains, the hinge regions were distinct, sharing only 19.0–35.2% homology at the amino acid level. No multiple duplication of the hinge region, as reported for human IgG1 and IgG3, was detected in any of the canine IgG γ chains. The numbers of cysteines in the putative hinge regions were found to be 3, 2, 7 and 3 for the four canine IgG heavy γ chains (A, B, C and D), respectively. Specific primers were designed based on caIgG γ chain hinge region DNA sequences and were used in RT-PCR for measuring different caIgG γ chain mRNA levels in canine PBMC samples.  相似文献

We isolated cDNA encoding porcine nucleotide-binding domain-like receptor family, pryin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) from Peyer's patches. The complete nucleotide open reading frame of porcine NLRP3 contains 3108-bp encoding a deduced polypeptide of 1036-amino acid residues. The porcine NLRP3 amino acid sequence is more similar to the longest isoform of human than the mouse counterpart. The predicted amino acid sequence of porcine NLRP3 presented nine C-terminal leucine-rich repeat domains. In newborn swine, the expression of NLRP3 was detected at higher levels in spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes, while lower levels were observed in intestinal tissues. In adult swine, NLRP3 was strongly expressed in Peyer's patches and the mesenteric lymph nodes, and the expression level in the lower intestinal tissues was comparable to that in spleen. Toll-like receptor and nucleotide-binding domain ligands, as well as Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Lactobacillus gasseri, enhanced NLRP3 expression in gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT) of newborn and adult swine. Our results should aid in understanding the intestinal immunoregulatory mechanisms underlying NLRP3 activation and the priming ability of immunobiotic lactic acid bacteria in porcine GALT.  相似文献

IZUMO1, belonging to the family of mammalian immunoglobulin proteins, has been well characterized in the mouse. Here, we describe the molecular cloning and expression analysis of porcine IZUMO1 (pIZUMO1). Partial sequence information published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database was used to generate the full‐length sequence for IZUMO1 using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). A search of the porcine genomic sequence in the NCBI database identified a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) encoding the pIZUMO1 gene. This BAC is derived from porcine chromosome 6 and is syntenic with the corresponding regions of mouse, bovine, and human genomes encoding the IZUMO gene family. This BAC was found to encode an IZUMO1 protein with a predicted amino acid sequence having high similarity with mouse and human IZUMO1. Western blot analysis of proteins from porcine tissues indicated that pIZUMO1 was specifically expressed in the sperm. Furthermore, to confirm whether pIZUMO1 forms complexes, we overexpressed pIZUMO1 in HEK293 cells. The recombinant pIZUMO1 from cell extracts was found to form complexes. Our finding suggests that pIZUMO1 forms homodimeric complex on the sperm membrane. Furthermore, an IVF inhibition assay with an antibody for the porcine IZUMO1 Ig‐like domain showed that Ig‐like domain effectively prevented pig sperm–egg interactions.  相似文献

CD97 is a member of a novel subfamily of leukocyte proteins that are characterized by the presence of tandemly repeated extracellular epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains and a seven-span transmembrane region, known as EGF-TM7. We here report the cloning of cDNA encoding the pig homologue of CD97. A pig CD97 specific probe was generated by PCR amplification of pig leukocyte cDNA, using primers based on consensus regions among the known sequences of mouse and human CD97. Screening of a pig aorta smooth muscle cDNA library identified one clone containing an open reading frame (ORF) that encoded an 18 amino acid putative signal peptide, a 141 amino acid sequence consisting of three EGF domains, a mucin-like spacer region of 276 amino acid, containing a G-protein coupling motif of 52 amino acids, followed by a 250 amino acid region containing seven membrane spanning domains and a 47 amino acid cytoplasmic tail. The amino acid sequence of the clone was 75, 67 and 59% homologous to cattle, human and mouse CD97 antigen, respectively. Therefore, it was termed pig CD97. Pig CD97 antigen shares many structural features with human, cattle and mouse CD97. RT-PCR analysis of cDNA from different pig cells and tissues showed that CD97 was highly expressed in leukocytes and lymph node cells. This is the first report describing the identification of a member of the EGF-TM7 family in the pig.  相似文献
