Feline Ubiquitin Fusion Protein Genes     

Kano  R.  Kubota  A.  Nakamura  Y.  Watanabe  S.  Hasegawa  A. 《Veterinary research communications》2001,25(8):615-622

Using cDNA from a CRFK cell line as a template, PCR amplification was performed with the Ub1S and poly(dT) primers to isolate feline ubiquitin genes. Sequencing of the 495 bp PCR fragment revealed that the putative amino acids induced by this fragment gave a fusion protein consisting of a ubiquitin polypeptide (76 amino acids) and an extension protein of ribosomal proteins L40 (52 amino acids). The putative amino acid sequence of ubiquitin was identical to those of humans, rats and pigs.The recombinant glutathione S-transferase (GST)–feline ubiquitin fusion proteins were produced in Escherichia coli and purified. The fusion proteins had a molecular weight of about 42 kDa and were detected by immunoblot assay with rabbit anti-ubiquitin antiserum.The mRNAs from heat-shocked and non-heat-shocked cells were subjected to RT-PCR (Ub1S and poly(dT) primers) analysis. The molecular weights of the ubiquitinated proteins in heat-shocked CFRK cells were between 18 kDa and 24 kDa by immunoblot assay.These results suggested that there were more ubiquinated proteins in the heat-shocked CRFK cells than in the pre-heat-shocked cells.  相似文献   

Evaluation of the Abbott LCx Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Assay for Direct Detection of Mycobacterium Bovis in Bovine Tissue Samples     

Valente C  Cuteri V  Ausili E  Piersimoni C 《Veterinary research communications》2002,26(1):21-27

The commercial LCx amplification assay, usually employed to detect the Myocobacterium tuberculosis complex in respiratory specimens, was evaluated by comparing the results it gave with those obtained using Löwenstein-Jensen solid medium and pathological findings on 55 lymph nodes from cattle with positive and 10 lymph nodes from cattle with negative skin tests for tuberculosis. Fifty-three cultures (51 and 2, respectively) were positive for M. bovis, while the results for the LCx assay and the histological method were positive in 48 (45, 3) and 24 (20, 4) samples, respectively. None of the samples from cattle from certified tuberculosis-free herds were positive by any of the procedures. The results obtained with the LCx assay, compared with the culture procedure, regarded as the gold standard among the diagnostic techniques, gave a specificity of 91.6% and sensitivity of 90.5%. Although the sensitivity of LCx was suboptimal, DNA of M. bovis was detected in 81.8% of the skin test-positive animals. Amplification techniques could provide a rapid and reasonably reliable tool for detecting bovine tuberculosis.  相似文献

侯艳红周艳君  闫丽萍田志军杨汉春  童光志 《中国兽医科技》2007,37(5):413-418

构建了泛素（ubiquitin，Ub）基因与密码子优化的PRRSVGP5蛋白（optiGP5）基因融合表达质粒pIR—Ub—optiGP5。间接免疫荧光和Western—blot分析表明，重组质粒转染293T细胞后能够瞬时表达。将pIR—optiGP5和pIR—Ub—optiGP5两种质粒DNA肌肉注射免疫BALB／c小鼠后，分别检测小鼠血清中抗GP5抗体、T淋巴细胞的增殖能力以及CTL活性。结果显示，pIR—optiGP5质粒免疫组在二免后可以检测到荧光抗体，而pIR—Ub—optiGP5质粒免疫组一直未检测到抗GP5抗体，但该免疫组的T淋巴细胞增殖指数及针对GP5的特异性CTL反应数值明显高于pIR—optiGP5质粒免疫组。这表明泛素与GP5的融合表达可增强细胞免疫反应。  相似文献

Propanil and swep inhibit 4-coumarate:CoA ligase activity in vitro   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

4-Coumarate:CoA ligase (4CL, EC 6.2.1.12) in the phenylpropanoid pathway in plants has attracted interest as a novel target for developing effective plant growth inhibitors (PGIs). In a previous study in which the 4CL inhibitory activity of 28 existing herbicides was investigated using an optimized in vitro screening assay, 4CL activity was found to be strongly inhibited by propanil and swep at 100 microM. Here, further experimental evidence is provided to substantiate the previous result. Using 4-coumaric acid as substrate, tobacco 4CL activity was inhibited by propanil or swep in a concentration-dependent manner, with 50% inhibition concentrations (I(50)) of 39.6 and 6 microM respectively. These herbicides also exhibited uncompetitive inhibition towards 4-coumaric acid. Furthermore, 4CLs from several plant species were inhibited by the herbicides within a range from 1 to 50 microM. It is proposed that these herbicides have another site of action as a result of the inhibition of 4CL in the phenylpropanoid pathway, and this enzyme represents a new target site for the development of PGI.  相似文献   

水稻Os4CL5的Val337缺失突变激活其芥子酸催化活性     

孙海燕  罗兵  赵敏欢  李朋朋  杨志刚 《农业生物技术学报》2016,(9):1312-1318

4-香豆酸辅酶A连接酶(4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase,4CL)催化各种羟基肉桂酸生成相应的硫酯,从而调控木质素和黄酮类物质的生成.4CL的芥子酸催化活性一直是备受关注的一个问题,目前只有拟南芥(Arabidopsis thaliana)的At4CL4和大豆(Glycine max)的Gm4CL1具有芥子酸转化能力.本研究用水稻(Oryza sativa subsp.japonica)苗期的叶片为材料,提取总RNA并以此为模板,用反转录PCR扩增水稻的Os4CL5基因,并将其连接到原核表达载体pET22-b(+)上,构建了原核表达载体pET-4CL5(+Val).通过定点突变的方法删除了水稻Os4CL5的Val337,构建了原核表达载体pET-4CL5(-Val).重组质粒转化大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)BL21(ED3)并经异丙基-β-d-硫代半乳糖苷(isopropyl-β-d-thiogalactoside,IPTG)诱导表达,十二烷基硫酸钠聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis,SDS-PAGE)检测表明,融合蛋白的分子量为57.0 kD,与预测值一致.His-SpinTrap蛋白纯化系统纯化回收重组蛋白,然后对重组蛋白的酶学性质进行表征.结果表明,野生型Os4CL5对不同底物表现出了不同的催化效率,香豆酸是最适底物,其次是阿魏酸,再次是咖啡酸,对芥子酸没有活性.与野生型Os4CL5相比,突变型Os4CL5对香豆酸、咖啡酸和阿魏酸的催化效率有所提高,并且其底物特异性发生了明显改变,获得了对芥子酸的催化活性.本研究为利用基因工程手段调控木质素的生物合成提供了理论依据.  相似文献

王爽  李海英 《中国农学通报》2021,37(33):120-127

旨在为研究甜菜U-box型E3泛素连接酶提供理论基础。以甜菜T710-Mu品系为试验材料,前期通过转录组数据获得在盐胁迫下差异表达的甜菜PUB基因(plant U-box gene),利用生物信息学的方法对这些PUB基因进行分析,主要包括理化性质分析、染色体定位分析、基因序列分析、结构域分析、家族分类分析以及互作蛋白预测。结果显示甜菜PUB基因在甜菜9条染色体上均有定位,并且包含PUB蛋白具有的多个保守结构域,如U-box,Pkinase、Pkinase-Tyr、Usp、Arm以及KAP结构域,以拟南芥U-box家族分类为依据发现甜菜U-box多位于ClassⅡ、ClassⅢ、ClassⅣ中,甜菜PUB蛋白可作为E3泛素连接酶与多种功能蛋白相互作用,实现泛素化修饰。植物PUB蛋白具有E3泛素连接酶活性,在植物生长发育过程以及抵抗环境压力中起到重要作用。  相似文献
