Translation Levels Control Multi-Spanning Membrane Protein Expression
Attempts to express eukaryotic multi-spanning membrane proteins at high-levels have been generally unsuccessful. In order to investigate the cause of this limitation and gain insight into the rate limiting processes involved, we have analyzed the effect of translation levels on the expression of several human membrane proteins in Escherichia coli (E. coli). These results demonstrate that excess...
متن کاملRole of Human Sec63 in Modulating the Steady-State Levels of Multi-Spanning Membrane Proteins
The Sec61 translocon of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane forms an aqueous pore, allowing polypeptides to be transferred across or integrated into membranes. Protein translocation into the ER can occur co- and posttranslationally. In yeast, posttranslational translocation involves the heptameric translocase complex including its Sec62p and Sec63p subunits. The mammalian ER membrane contai...
متن کاملCorrelation between Membrane Protein Expression Levels and Transcellular Transport Activity for Breast Cancer Resistance Protein.
Emerging evidence indicates an important role for the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) in limiting brain penetration of substrate drugs. While in vitro transwell assays can provide an indication of BCRP substrate potential, the predictability of these assays in relation to in vivo brain penetration is still under debate. The present study examined the correlation of BCRP membrane protein...
متن کاملMulti-colored Spanning Graphs
We study a problem proposed by Hurtado et al. [10] motivated by sparse set visualization. Given n points in the plane, each labeled with one or more primary colors, a colored spanning graph (CSG) is a graph such that for each primary color, the vertices of that color induce a connected subgraph. The Min-CSG problem asks for the minimum sum of edge lengths in a colored spanning graph. We show th...
متن کاملCloning and expression of Brucella outer membrane protein 36kDa (OMP2b) in E. coli
Background & Objective: Brucellosis is an important zoonotic disease of economic significance. Brucella species are gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacteria, and are capable of replicating in the phagosomes of macrophages. They cause infection in several animal species and humans. Prevention of new diseases and diagnosis of cases infected with the organism are both essential for eradic...
