De novo designed signal peptidase I cleavage sites were tested for their biological activity in vivo in an Escherichia coli expression and secretion system. The artificial cleavage site sequences were generated by two different computer-based design techniques, a simple statistical method, and a neural network approach. In previous experiments, a neural network was used for feature extraction f...
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus-8, is the causative agent of three hyperproliferative disorders: Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and multicentric Castleman's disease. During viral latency a small subset of viral genes are produced, including KSHV latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA), which help the virus thwart cellular defe...
PURPOSE To determine if limited proteolysis of beta-crystallins is associated with insolubilization of proteins in rats lens during maturation and to test if the protease, calpain II, is involved. METHODS Soluble and insoluble lens proteins from 4-day-old to 4-month-old rat lens cortexes and nuclei were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis. The insoluble proteins from 4-month-old nucl...
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are synthesized as proproteins that undergo proteolytic processing by furin/subtilisin proprotein convertases to release the active ligand. Here we study processing of BMP5/6/7/8 proteins, including the Drosophila orthologs Glass Bottom Boat (Gbb) and Screw (Scw) and human BMP7. Gbb and Scw have three functional furin/subtilisin proprotein convertase cleavage ...
Thrombin is a serine protease of the chymotrypsin family that acts both as a procoagulant and as an anticoagulant by cleaving either factor VIII, factor V and fibrinogen or protein C, respectively. Numerous previous studies have shown that electropositive regions at a distance from the active site, so called exosites, are of major importance for the cleavage by human thrombin. Upstream of all t...
We identify protonation sites and study the competition of statistical fragmentation with localized bond cleavage after site-selective nitrogen 1s core-excitation by mass spectrometric detection gas-phase oligonucleotide cations.
Regulated intramembrane proteolysis of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by the protease activities α-, β- and γ-secretase controls the generation of the neurotoxic amyloid β peptide. APLP2, the amyloid precursor-like protein 2, is a homolog of APP, which shows functional overlap with APP, but lacks an amyloid β domain. Compared to APP, less is known about the proteolytic processing of APLP2,...
Several classes of antitumor drugs are known to stabilize topoisomerase complexes in which the enzyme is covalently bound to a terminus of a DNA strand break. The DNA cleavage sites generally are different for each class of drugs. We have determined the DNA sequence locations of a large number of drug-stimulated cleavage sites of topoisomerase II, and find that the results provide a clue to the...
Cleavage of pBR322 DNA I by the restriction endonuclease HinfI is preferentially inhibited at specific HinfI cleavage sites. These sites in pBR322 DNA I have been identified and ordered with respect to the frequency with which they are cleaved. The HinfI site most resistant to cleavage in pBR322 DNA I is unique in that runs of G-C base pairs are immediately adjacent on both sites. Two different...
DNA topoisomerase II (Top2) is the target of some of the most effective anticancer DNA intercalators. To determine the effect of intercalating ligands at defined positions relative to a known DNA cleavage site for human Top2alpha, we synthesized oligodeoxynucleotides containing single trans-opened benzo[a]pyrene 7,8-diol 9,10-epoxide (DE) deoxyadenosine (dA) adducts of known absolute configurat...
