چکیده

Photoinduced cross-linking of Escherichia coli 70 S ribosomes with [3H]puromycin has led to the labeling of ribosomal proteins S7, S14, S18, L18, and L29. Proteolytic fragmentation of these proteins and separation of the peptide mixtures by C18 reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography resulted in six puromycin-labeled peptides which were applied to sequence analysis. The following peptides were found labeled: Pro1-Lys10 of S7, Ala28-Lys46 and Ala7-Lys11 of S14, Asp24-Lys29 of S18, Tyr64-Lys68 of L18, and Thr55-Lys60 of L29. For the first time the molecular environment of an antibiotic in the procaryotic ribosome is presented at the peptide level.

In silico Study of Toll-Like Receptor 4 Binding Site of FimH from Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

  Introduction : The innate immune system as the first line of defense against the pathogens recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs). Interaction of bacterial PAMPs by TLRs results in activation of innate and acquired immunity. FimH adhesin, a minor component of type 1 fimbriae encoded by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a PAMP of TLR4 tha...

Structures of five antibiotics bound at the peptidyl transferase center of the large ribosomal subunit.

Structures of anisomycin, chloramphenicol, sparsomycin, blasticidin S, and virginiamycin M bound to the large ribosomal subunit of Haloarcula marismortui have been determined at 3.0A resolution. Most of these antibiotics bind to sites that overlap those of either peptidyl-tRNA or aminoacyl-tRNA, consistent with their functioning as competitive inhibitors of peptide bond formation. Two hydrophob...

Structural requirements of Escherichia coli formylmethionyl transfer ribonucleic acid for ribosome binding and initiation of protein synthesis.

Escherichia coli formylmethionine tRNA can be isolated as two isomers which differ by a single nucleotide in the variable loop (m7G uersus adenosine). These two initiator tRNAs have been found to bind to ribosomes in an initiation factor and AUG-dependent reaction with identical kinetics. In addition, the bound tRNAs react with puromycin and initiate polypeptide synthesis at the same rates. Con...

Localization of the puromycin binding site on the large ribosomal subunit of Escherichia coli by immunoelectron microscopy.

By using immunoelectron microscopy, we have localized the binding site on 50S Escherichia coli ribosomal subunits for puromycin, an antibiotic that interacts with the ribosomal peptidyltransferase center. This was achieved by affinity-labeling 50S subunits with N-bromoacetyl puromycin and treating the labeled subunits with an antibody specific for the N6,N6-dimethyladenosine moiety of puromycin...

Evaluation of 99m Tc-MccJ25 peptide analog in mice bearing B16F10 melanoma tumor as a diagnostic radiotracer

Objective(s): Despite recent advances in treatment modalities, cancer remains a major source of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Currently, the development of sensitive and specific molecular imaging probes for early diagnosis of cancer is still a problematic challenge. Previous studies have been shown that some of the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exhibit...
