[Abstract]  The ubiquitin-like (Ubl) protein is widely distributed in Archaea and involved in many cellular pathways. A well-established method to reconstitute archaeal Ubl protein conjugation in vitro is important to better understand the process of archaeal Ubl protein modification. This protocol describes the in vitro reconstitution of Ubl protein modification and following analysis of this modification in Haloferax volcanii, a halophilic archaeon serving as the model organism. [摘要]  泛素样(Ubl)蛋白广泛分布于古细菌中并参与许多细胞途径。 为了更好地理解古细菌Ub1蛋白质修饰的过程,重建体外古细菌Ubl蛋白质缀合物的完善方法是很重要的。 该协议描述了Ubl蛋白质修饰的体外重建以及在作为模型生物的嗜盐古细菌Haloferax volcanii 中对这种修饰进行分析。

【背景】泛素(Ub)与靶蛋白共价连接的过程被称为泛素化,其控制真核细胞中大量的细胞过程(Glickman和Ciechanover,2002; Komander和Rape,2012)。遍在蛋白化由一系列酶(包括Ub激活酶(E1),Ub结合酶(E2s)和Ub连接酶(E3s))催化。泛素化的体外重建是确定酶之间或E3与蛋白质底物之间特异性的有用测定法(Zhao等人,2012)。在古细菌中,Ubl蛋白SAMP采用Ub折叠,并且与E1样酶UbaA催化的蛋白靶标异肽连接[Maupin-Furlow,(2014)综述]。尽管E1同系物在古细菌中广泛存在,但基于一级序列比较,在大多数古细菌中未预测经典E2或E3酶。我们最近对Haloferax volcanii的研究表明甲硫氨酸亚砜还原酶A(MsrA)是Ubl蛋白质修饰(sampylation)与UbaA一起在体内温和的氧化条件下和< (体外)(fu="">

[Abstract]  Cellular infection with tick-borne flaviviruses (TBFVs) results in activation of the interferon (IFN) signaling pathway and subsequent upregulation of numerous genes termed IFN stimulated genes (ISGs) (Schoggins et al., 2011). Many ISGs function to prevent virus pathogenesis by acting in a broad or specific manner through protein-protein interactions (Duggal and Emerman, 2012). The potency of the IFN signaling response determines the outcome of TBFV infection (Best, 2017; Carletti et al., 2017). Interestingly, data from our lab show that TBFV replication is significantly restricted in cells of the reservoir species Peromyscus leucopus thereby suggesting a potent antiviral response (Izuogu et al., 2017). We assessed the relative contribution of IFN ... [摘要]  蜱传黄热病病毒(TBFV)的细胞感染导致干扰素(IFN)信号传导途径的激活和随后称为IFN刺激基因(ISG)(Schoggins等人,2011)的众多基因的上调。许多ISG通过蛋白质 - 蛋白质相互作用以广泛或特定的方式起作用来防止病毒发病(Duggal和Emerman,2012)。 IFN信号反应的效力决定了TBFV感染的结果(Best,2016; Carletti等人,2017)。有趣的是,我们实验室的数据显示TBFV复制在储库物种Peromyscus leucopus的细胞中显着受到限制,从而表明有效的抗病毒应答(Izuogu等人,2017)。我们评估干扰素信号对抗性的相对贡献。通过敲低IFN反应途径中的主要转录因子来抑制白血病。信号转导和转录激活因子1(STAT1)是专门针对在P。 leucopus细胞通过shRNA技术。我们进一步测试了基因敲低对细胞对IFN反应和限制病毒复制的能力的影响;结果表明当STAT1表达被改变时,leucopus细胞对IFN刺激的反应降低,并且对TBFV复制显着更敏感。

【背景】IFN信号是抵抗侵入宿主细胞的黄病毒的第一道防线(Robertson等人,2009; Lazear和Diamond,2015)。通过模式识别受体(PRR)检测与病毒颗粒相关的分子标记,然后通过转录因子引发下游信号从细胞释放1型IFN(Kawai ...
