    Notes: Abstract A rapid assay system for measuring the potential of estrogenic drugs is introduced. Luciferase induction could be measured in estrogen-receptor-positive human MCF-7 breast cancer cells, which had been transfected with a novel luciferase reporter plasmid ERE luc. The minimal requirement was 1 h exposure to the inducing drug and 3.5 h of incubation after removal of the drug. The assay system was used to measure the stability of the drug diaqua-[1,2-bis (2,6-dichloro-4-hydroxyphenyl) ethylenediamine] platinum(II) sulfate, containing an estrogenic ligand and reactive platinum. Luciferase activity was observed only when the drug was in the culture medium and cells for short times, whereas the estrogenic ligand alone remained active. It is assumed that binding of the platinum moiety to macromolecular constituents of the culture or cells renders the drug inaccessible for binding to the estrogen receptor.

    Notes: Abstract A novel procedure is described for the three-dimensional (3-D) in vitro culture and for maintaining of nontransformed gastric epithelial cells from the human antrum mucosa (HAEC). Biopsies obtained from the antrum were cut into small pieces and the tissue fragments were incubated in culture medium containing the appropriate antibiotics. The suspended mucosal fragments generated small, spheroid-like vesicles consisting of predominantly highly prismatic, mucus-producing cells which mimic the in vivo counterparts structurally and functionally. Electron microscopic investigations revealed a number of ultrastructural and morphological features similar to those of normal gastric cells in vivo such as apical microvilli associated with a glycocalyx, tight junctions, desmosomes, membraneous infoldings, mucous droplets, and an irregular basal lamina. In comparison to the two-dimensional (2-D) gastric cell cultures grown on plane supports, the vesicles maintain an intact epithelial organization of individual cells. The prismatic phenotype, the histophysiology as well as the cytoarchitecture of the non-transformed 3-D cultured gastric epithelial cells are comparable to those of the native tissue and therefore represent a suitable model for defined pathogen-host cell interactions.

    Molecular principles of antigenic variation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae (1987)

    Details

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The genome of Neisseria gonorrhoeae harbours many gene loci for the production of variant pili. Strain MS11 has two expression genes (pilE) with promoter and complete coding sequences. The remaining genes are silent (pilS) lacking the promoter and the conservative amino terminals coding sequences of pilin. The pilus genes consist of six variable minicassettes (mc's), that are flancked by strictly conserved sequences. Upon phase (P+ to P+) and antigenic (P+ to P−, or vice versa) transitions minicassettes from silent loci are transferred from silent pilus gene copies to the expression gene by gene conversion. P− variants resulting from such rearrangements still produce pilin mRNA as well as pilin, but only a few are found on the surface of those gonococci.

    Notes: Abstract Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), an enzyme participating in the regulation of the cell cycle, constitutes a possible target in the search for new antitumor agents. Starting from the purine derivative olomoucine and following a structure-based approach, potent inhibitors of this enzyme were rapidly identified. The molecular modeling aspects of this work are described.

    Kinetics of isomerization for the proline helical forms of two oligoproline redox arrays by circular dichroic spectropolarimetry (1999)

    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of isomerization of the helical forms of three oligoprolines was determined by far-ultraviolet CD spectropolarimetry and kinetic analysis by singular value decomposition. ZRA (Pro3-X-Pro2-Y-Pro2-Z-Pro3) and ZRA2 (Pro7-X-Pro2-Y-Pro2-Z-Pro7) bear large redox-active substituents on proline residues X, Y, and Z, but P9 (Pro9) does not. All three peptides formed a stable proline-II helix in water. In acetonitrile, both ZRA2 and P9 were converted into a proline-I helical form but ZRA remained predominantly in the proline-II helical form. Evidently, in order to undergo substantial proline II→I isomerization, an oligoproline chain containing large substituents needs to have a segment of consecutive unsubstituted proline residues that is sufficiently long to form a stable proline helix. Biexponential kinetics (A→B, k1 = ∼3.3 × 10-4 s-1; B→C, k2 = ∼0.8 × 10-4 s-1) were observed for the proline II→I isomerization of ZRA2 and P9 in acetonitrile and for the proline I→II isomerization of ZRA2 in water, which provides evidence for the growth and decay of a major kinetic intermediate.

    Tyrosine Phosphorylation of Moesin in Arachidonic Acid–Stimulated Human Platelets (1998)

    Notes: Abstract Moesin, a member of the ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) family of cytoskeletal proteins, has been implicated in dynamic membrane-based processes such as the formation and stabilization of filopodia. Ezrin is known to be a substrate of tyrosine kinases in activated T cells and epithelial growth factor–stimulated A431 cells. For the closely related 77-kD protein moesin, which shares 72% identity with ezrin on the basis of their amino acid sequences, a reversible phosphorylation on tyrosine residues has not yet been described. Because our scanning electron microscopy studies revealed the appearance of multiple, up to 3 μm long filopodia on the surface of activated human platelets, we investigated the participation of moesin in dynamic shape changes on platelet stimulation with arachidonic acid. Antimoesin immunoprecipitates obtained under denaturing conditions from lysates of resting platelets contained only low amounts of tyrosine-phosphorylated moesin. In lysates of arachidonic acid–stimulated platelets, the level of tyrosine phosphorylation was significantly increased. This activation-dependent phosphorylation of moesin was verified by probing antiphosphotyrosine immunoprecipitates from unstimulated and stimulated platelets with antimoesin antibodies. Tyrosine-phosphorylated moesin was detectable only in the presence of the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate, suggesting that a coordinated balance between kinase and phosphatase activities controls the steady-state level of moesin phosphorylation.

    Notes: Abstract  The gene coding for folylpoly-(γ)-glutamate synthetase (FPGS)-dihydrofolate synthetase (DHFS) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ngo) has been cloned by functional complementation of an Escherichia coli folC mutant (SF4). The sequence encodes a 224-residue protein of 46.4 kDa. It shows 46% identity to the E. coli FPGS-DHFS and 29% identity to the FPGS of Lactobacillus casei. Sequence comparisons between the three genes reveal regions of high homology, including ATP binding sites required for bifunctionality, all of which may be important for FPGS activity. In contrast to L. casei FPGS, the E. coli and Ngo enzymes share some additional regions which may be essential for DHFS activity. The products of Ngo folC and flanking genes were monitored by T7 promoter expression. Interestingly, deletion of the upstream folI gene, which encodes a 16.5 kDa protein, abolishes the capacity of folC to complement E. coli SF4 to the wild-type phenotype. The ability to complement can be restored by folI provided in trans. Unlike folC mutants, gonococcal folI mutants are viable and display no apparent phenotype. Thus, in contrast to E. coli, Ngo folC is expressed at a sufficiently high level from its own promoter, in the absence of FolI. This study provides the first insights into the genetic complexity of one-carbon metabolism in Ngo.
