FRET-based Microscopy Assay to Measure Activity of Membrane Amino Acid Transporters with Single-transporter Resolution

[Abstract]  

Secondary active transporters reside in cell membranes transporting polar solutes like amino acids against steep concentration gradients, using electrochemical gradients of ions as energy sources. Commonly, ensemble-based measurements of radiolabeled substrate uptakes or transport currents inform on kinetic parameters of transporters. Here we describe a fluorescence-based functional assay for glutamate and aspartate transporters that provides single-transporter, single-transport cycle resolution using an archaeal elevator-type sodium and aspartate symporter GltPh as a model system. We prepare proteo-liposomes containing reconstituted purified GltPh transporters and an encapsulated periplasmic glutamate/aspartate-binding protein, PEB1a, labeled with donor and acceptor fluorophores. We then

[摘要]  [摘要]次级活性转运蛋白驻留在细胞膜中,利用离子的电化学梯度作为能量源,可针对陡峭的浓度梯度转运极性氨基酸(如氨基酸)。通常,基于集合的放射性标记底物摄取或转运电流的测量可确定转运蛋白的动力学参数。在这里,我们描述了一种基于荧光的谷氨酸和天冬氨酸转运蛋白功能测定方法,该方法使用古细菌升降剂型钠和天冬氨酸共转运蛋白Glt Ph作为模型系统,提供了单转运蛋白,单转运周期的分辨率。我们准备包含重组的纯化的Glt Ph转运蛋白和封装的周质谷氨酸/天冬氨酸结合蛋白,PEB1a,用供体和受体荧光团标记的蛋白脂质体。然后,我们将蛋白脂质体表面固定化,并使用单分子全内反射荧光(TIRF)显微镜测量随时间变化的运输依赖性荧光共振能量转移(FRET)效率变化。与放射性配体摄取测定法相比,该测定法在时间分辨率上提高了10-100倍。它还可以对不同转运周期步骤进行动力学表征,并识别转运蛋白种群内的动力学异质性。

[Abstract]  The discovery of the CRISPR-Cas9 system from Streptococcus pyogenes has allowed the development of genome engineering tools in a variety of organisms. A frequent limitation in CRISPR-Cas9 function is adequate expression levels of sgRNA. This protocol provides a strategy to construct hybrid RNA polymerase III (Pol III) promoters that facilitate high expression of sgRNA and improved CRISPR-Cas9 function. We provide selection criteria of Pol III promoters, efficient promoter construction methods, and a sample screening technique to test the efficiency of the hybrid promoters. A hybrid promoter system developed for Yarrowia lipolytica will serve as a model. [摘要]  来自化脓性链球菌的CRISPR-Cas9系统的发现使得在各种生物体中开发基因组工程工具成为可能。 CRISPR-Cas9功能的频繁限制是足够的sgRNA表达水平。 该协议提供了构建杂合RNA聚合酶III(Pol III)启动子的策略,其促进sgRNA的高表达和改善的CRISPR-Cas9功能。 我们提供Pol III启动子的选择标准,有效的启动子构建方法以及样品筛选技术来检测杂合启动子的效率。 为解脂耶氏酵母开发的杂交启动子系统将用作模型。

【背景】CRISPR(成簇定期间隔短回文重复序列)是细菌中发现的DNA序列的集合,其中含有先前曝光的病毒DNA片段(Marraffini和Sontheimer,2010)。片段被称为间隔区DNA,并且它们侧面是短的,重复的回文序列。细菌使用这些存储的间隔序列作为模板来表达RNA,以识别和攻击再次暴露的特定病毒。当与CRISPR相关(Cas)蛋白结合时,CRISPR-Cas系统可以识别和切割外源DNA或RNA,破坏病毒并保护宿主免受重复感染(Barrangou,2013)。

一种特定的CRISPR系统,来自化脓链球菌的II型CRISPR-Cas9已经被修改成用于基因组编辑的更简单的系统。利用这个系统,研究人员能够设计特定的单引导RNA(sgRNA)序列,它与具有上游原型间隔区相邻基序(PAM;'NGG')的目的基因的20bp序列互补(Jinek ...

[Abstract]  Cellular quiescence (also known as G0 arrest) is characterized by reduced DNA replication, increased autophagy, and increased expression of cyclin-dependent kinase p27Kip1. Quiescence is essential for wound healing, organ regeneration, and preventing neoplasia. Previous findings indicate that microRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in regulating cellular quiescence. Our recent publication demonstrated the existence of an alternative miRNA biogenesis pathway in primary human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cells during quiescence. Indeed, we have identified a group of pri-miRNAs (whose mature miRNAs were found induced during quiescence) modified with a 2,2,7-trimethylguanosine (TMG)-cap by the trimethylguanosine synthase 1 (TGS1) protein and transported to the cytoplasm ...
