چکیده
The present study reports the identification of human sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG)-interacting proteins in the brain using a phage display-based screening technology. Phage display is a system in which a foreign protein is displayed on the surface of a bacteriophage as a fusion protein with one of the coat proteins of the bacteriophage. T7 phage clones expressing normal human brain proteins (human normal brain phage-display cDNA expression library) were screened using SHBG as bait. The bound phage clones were then identified by DNA sequencing and by BLAST search analysis. Of the twenty binding proteins analyzed, three were found to be membrane-associated proteins: synaptosomal associated protein 25 (SNAP25), Thy-1 cell surface antigen and zonadhesin. Further studies will determine if the interactions of SHBG with these proteins have any role in the internalization and cell signaling events or whether they contribute to steroid delivery to specific cells.

Description of four novel psychrophilic, ionizing radiation-sensitive Deinococcus species from alpine environments.
Five psychrophilic bacterial strains were isolated from soil samples collected above the treeline of alpine environments. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these organisms represent four novel species of the genus Deinococcus; levels of sequence similarity to the type strains of recognized Deinococcus species were in the range 89.3-94.7 %. Strains PO-04-20-13...
متن کاملPseudonocardia parietis sp. nov., from the indoor environment.
A Gram-positive, rod-shaped, non-endospore-forming, mycelium-forming actinobacterium (04-St-002(T)) was isolated from the wall of an indoor environment colonized with moulds. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity studies, strain 04-St-002(T) was shown to belong to the family Pseudonocardiaceae, and to be most closely related to Pseudonocardia antarctica (99.2 %) and Pseudonocardia a...
