cDNA cloning of human myeloperoxidase: decrease in myeloperoxidase mRNA upon induction of HL-60 cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Myeloperoxidase (MPO), the most abundant neutrophil protein, is a bacteriocidal component of the primary granules and a critical marker in distinguishing acute myelogenous leukemia from acute lymphoid leukemia. A cDNA clone for human MPO was isolated by immunologic screening of human hematopoietic lambda gt11 expression vector libraries with specific anti-MPO antibody. The identity of the cDNA clone was confirmed by finding that epitope-selected antibody against this clone recognizes purified MPO and MPO in human promyelocytic (HL-60) cell lysates by immunoblot analysis, and that hybrid selection of HL-60 mRNA with this cDNA clone and translation in vitro results in the synthesis of an 80-kDa protein recognized by the anti-MPO antiserum. RNA blot analysis with this MPO cDNA clone detects hybridization to two polyadenylylated transcripts of approximately 3.6 and approximately 2.9 kilobases in HL-60 cells. No hybridization is detected to human placenta mRNA. Upon induction of HL-60 cells to differentiate by incubation for 4 days with dimethyl sulfoxide, a drastic decrease in the hybridization intensity of these two bands is seen. This is consistent with previous data suggesting a decrease in MPO synthesis upon such induction of these cells. The MPO cDNA should be useful for further molecular and genetic characterization of MPO and its expression and biosynthesis in normal and leukemic granulocytic differentiation.

Molecular cloning and characterization of cDNA for human myeloperoxidase.
Partial amino acid sequence of human myeloperoxidase was determined, and a 41-base oligonucleotide containing deoxyinosines at four positions was chemically synthesized. By using the oligonucleotide as a probe, cDNA clones for human myeloperoxidase were isolated from a cDNA library constructed with mRNA from human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. One of the clones containing a 2.6-kilobase i...

Prior to the production of human gamma interferon using recombinant DNA technology, it had been producedmainly upon mitogenic induction of lymphocytes in very low amounts, which evidently hamperedits characterization and its medical applications.

متن کاملEvidence for a pretranslational defect in hereditary and acquired myeloperoxidase deficiency.
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme containing enzyme involved in the oxygen-dependent microbicidal activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Complete hereditary and acquired MPO deficiencies are defined as lack of peroxidase activity in PMN. Using this criterion, we studied a patient with complete hereditary MPO deficiency, and a MPO deficient variant cell line of HL-60 (HL-60-A7), whi...
متن کاملMyeloperoxidase is involved in H2O2-induced apoptosis of HL-60 human leukemia cells.
We examined the mechanism of H(2)O(2)-induced cytotoxicity and its relationship to oxidation in human leukemia cells. The HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cell line was sensitive to H(2)O(2), and at concentrations up to about 20-25 micrometer, the killing was mediated by apoptosis. There was limited evidence of lipid peroxidation, suggesting that the effects of H(2)O(2) do not involve hydroxyl radi...
