A New Protein Superfamily: TPPP-Like Proteins
The introduction of the term 'Tubulin Polymerization Promoting Protein (TPPP)-like proteins' is suggested. They constitute a eukaryotic protein superfamily, characterized by the presence of the p25alpha domain (Pfam05517, IPR008907), and named after the first identified member, TPPP/p25, exhibiting microtubule stabilizing function. TPPP-like proteins can be grouped on the basis of two character...
متن کاملSelf protein-protein interactions are involved in TPPP/p25 mediated microtubule bundling
TPPP/p25 is a microtubule-associated protein, detected in protein inclusions associated with various neurodegenerative diseases. Deletion analysis data show that TPPP/p25 has two microtubule binding sites, both located in intrinsically disordered domains, one at the N-terminal and the other in the C-terminal domain. In copolymerization assays the full-length protein exhibits microtubule stimula...
متن کاملCloning, Expression and Purification of Truncated Chlamydia Trachomatis Outer Membrane Protein 2 (Omp2) and its Application in an ELISA Assay
Background: Although a simple and direct method does not exist for the detection of chlamydial infections, there are situations in which reliable serological tests, with sensi-tivity related to a specific antigen, could be helpful. Objective: The aim of this study was to clone the first 1100 bp of the C. trachomatis outer membrane protein 2 (omp2) gene in order to prepare a recombinant protein ...
متن کاملTubulin polymerization promoting protein (TPPP/p25) as a marker for oligodendroglial changes in multiple sclerosis.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an idiopathic chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system with variable extent of remyelination. Remyelination originates from oligodendrocyte (OG) precursor cells, which migrate and differentiate into mature OG. Tubulin polymerization promoting protein (TPPP/p25) is located in mature OG and aggregates in oligodendroglial cytoplasmic inclu...
متن کاملEvidence from Mouthpart Structure on Interordinal Relationships in Endopterygota?
The mouthpart structures of Endopterygota exhibit an extremely high diversity of form and function, yet they are composed of the same set of homologous components which are derived from arthropod limbs. Mouthpart features are prevalent in all studies of the high-level phylogeny of insects. Areas in which the phylogeny of Endopterygota has remained unresolved over the past decades concern the po...
