Engineered Trehalose Permeable to Mammalian Cells
Trehalose is a naturally occurring disaccharide which is associated with extraordinary stress-tolerance capacity in certain species of unicellular and multicellular organisms. In mammalian cells, presence of intra- and extracellular trehalose has been shown to confer improved tolerance against freezing and desiccation. Since mammalian cells do not synthesize nor import trehalose, the developmen...
متن کاملEngineered viruses to select genes encoding secreted and membrane-bound proteins in mammalian cells.
We have developed a functional genomics tool to identify the subset of cDNAs encoding secreted and membrane-bound proteins within a library (the 'secretome'). A Sindbis virus replicon was engineered such that the envelope protein precursor no longer enters the secretory pathway. cDNA fragments were fused to the mutant precursor and expression screened for their ability to restore membrane local...
متن کاملPredicting effective microRNA target sites in mammalian mRNAs
MicroRNA targets are often recognized through pairing between the miRNA seed region and complementary sites within target mRNAs, but not all of these canonical sites are equally effective, and both computational and in vivo UV-crosslinking approaches suggest that many mRNAs are targeted through non-canonical interactions. Here, we show that recently reported non-canonical sites do not mediate r...
متن کاملPredicting O-glycosylation sites in mammalian proteins by using SVMs
O-glycosylation is one of the most important, frequent and complex post-translational modifications. This modification can activate and affect protein functions. Here, we present three support vector machines models based on physical properties, 0/1 system, and the system combining the above two features. The prediction accuracies of the three models have reached 0.82, 0.85 and 0.85, respective...
متن کاملAdsorption of Trypanosoma cruzi proteins to mammalian cells in vitro.
It has previously been shown using immunological techniques that antigens from Trypanosoma cruzi adsorb to mammalian cells. Here we have used radioactively-labelled T. cruzi antigens to investigate the nature of the antigens bound. We have demonstrated that numerous T. cruzi polypeptides rapidly become adsorbed to mammalian cells in tissue culture. These polypeptides dissociate from the mammali...
