圆斑蝰蛇毒磷脂酶A_2蛋白活性表现和分子进化探讨及菜花烙铁头、烙铁头蛇毒中Jerdonase、TmF的研究

磷脂酶AZ（PLA2）是蛇毒中含量较为丰富的一类作用于梭酷键的酶。迄今为止，己有多种形式的PLA2从不同地域、不同种属的蛇毒中得以纯化并进行了较为系统的研究。其中，以VipoXin为代表的异二聚体形式PLA2较为引人注目，原因在于这种形式不同于此类蛋白家族中的诸多其它个体。目前，己经有许多关于此异二聚体PL凡生物学特性的报道，包括对此类形式存在原因、活性变化、结构表现、系统进化等方面的讨论。然而至今，这种以异二聚体形式存在的PLA2仅发现于几种蛙亚科（ViperinaeSubfamily）蛇种的蛇毒中，其中就包括我国台湾岛的圆斑蜂蛇台湾亚种（Doboiarusselliiformosensis），而蝮亚科（CrotaiinaeSubfamil）蛇种的蛇毒至今却没有此类报道。我国大陆西南端接壤东南亚，存在于云南、福建一带的圆斑蛙蛇隶属圆斑蛙蛇泰国亚种（Daboiarusselliisiamensis），那么这种蛇毒中是否也含有异二聚体形式的PLA2呢？本工作就此疑问对云南产圆斑蛙蛇泰国亚种（D.r.siamensis）蛇毒中的PLA2进行了研究，结果得到三个新的PLAZ，分别命名为DRS-PLA2-I、DRS-PLA2-II和DRS-PLA2-III。其中，DRS-PLA2-I的分子量为13864.06Da，理论pI为4.56，PLA2活性为12.35μmol/mg/min；DRS-PLA2-II的分子量为13635.99Da，理论pI为8.74，PLA2活性为8.76μmol／mg/min；DRS-PLA2-III的分子量为13619.80Da，理论厂为4.61，无PLA2活性。这三个蛋白酶N端的30个氨基酸残基恰好和三个阳性克隆的cDNA序列推导的蛋白序列吻合，结合已经报道的PLA2蛋白家族蛋白序列的保守性表现，我们可以断定它们之间存在对应关系。分子系统学分析表明DRS-PLA2-II和DRS-PLA2-III在进化关系上和蛙亚科的异二聚体PLA2关系较近，并且二者酶活性分别与异二聚体PLA2的Normalchain和Inhibitorchain相一致，只是没有发现类似Vipoxin形式的异二聚体结合蛋白。这些分析表明DRS-PLA2-nORS-PLA2-III类似圆斑蛙蛇台湾亚种（D.r.forlnos翻s沽）中的PV-4/RV-7，是PLA2异二聚体的一种特殊形式，在进化上滞后于VinOXin。另夕卜本工作还相继从云南产菜花烙铁头（Trimeresrusjerdonii）蛇毒和湖南产烙铁头（Trimeresurusmucrosquamatus）蛇毒中分离得到Jerdonase和TmF。前者为一个丝氨酸蛋白酶性质的、具有纤维蛋白原水解作用和激肤释放酶原水解作用双重活性表现的、高分子量的份五brinogenase，其活性表现可以被PMSF彻底抑制，而EDTA对此却没有影响。其它的几种抑制剂如大豆胰蛋白酶抑制剂、l-cysteine、DTT对Jerdonase的活性表现也有不同程度的影响。在Jerdonase的这些生化特性上中，分子量的大小和对纤维蛋白酶水解的特性这两方面有别于蛇毒中诸多其它来源的同类蛋白；后者T淤为一个舒缓激肚增强肤（BradykninPQtentiatingPePtide，BPP），电离质谱分析表明其分子量为1110.7Da。此小肚氨基酸序列为促进舒缓激肚（Bradki垃n，BK）诱导的豚鼠回肠纵行肌收缩的活力单位为（1.13±0.3）（m留L），T妊抑制血管紧张素转化酶（ACE）对BK水解的半数抑制剂量IC50为2μg。比较已报道的从Agkistrodon属和Bothrops属中纯化得到的BPP氨基酸序列发现：BPP的N端都是特征性的pGlu，C端为IIe-Pro-Pro，有高度的保守性。另外，TmF是Trimeresurus属中此类小肤的首次纯化。总之，本研究对国产的几种常见蛇毒中的几种常见蛋白多肤进行了一定程度的探讨和分析，和相同类别的其它蛋白、多肤比较可以看到，有许多相同的地方，也有许多不同的表现，研究结果为相应领域的深入研究提供资料和思路。

Mass spectrometry study on snake venoms and enzymes

In this paper, three kinds of snake venoms and lour kinds of enzymes (phospholipase A(2), fibrinolytic enzyme, arginine esterase and L-amino acid oxidase) isolated from the snake venom were analyzed. As the snake venom was different, the MALDI/TOF/MS showed difference, The MALDI/TOF/MS determination results could be affected Ly the concentrations of snake venom enzymes, And the mechanisms of desorption and ionization was also given in this study, By using MALDI/TOF/MS we obtained the accurate molecular weights and homogeneities of the enzymes. The apparent characteristics of the positive MALDI/TOF/MS of enzymes composed by two subunits were also given out, The results showed that MALDI/TOF/MS is an effective analytic method for discovering new components from snake venom complexes. And it is reliable to use this method to determine the molecular weights and purifies of protein molecules.

Analysis of the expression and antioxidative property of a peroxiredoxin 6 from Scophthalmus maximus

Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are a group of antioxidant proteins that protect cells from oxidative damage caused by various peroxides. To date, six different isoforms of peroxiredoxin (Prx1 to Prx6) have been identified, of which, Prx6 belongs to the 1-Cys Prx subfamily. Although Prx6 of several fish species have been reported at sequence level, there are very few documented studies on the potential function of fish Prx6. In this report, we describe the identification and analysis of a Prx6 homologue, SmPrx6, from turbot Scophthalmus maximus. The full length cDNA of SmPrx6 contains a 5'- untranslated region (UTR) of 60 bp, an open reading frame of 666 bp, and a 3'-UTR of 244 bp. The deduced amino acid sequence of SmPrx6 shares 81-87% overall identities with known fish Prx6. In silico analysis identified in SmPrx6 a conserved Prx6 catalytic motif, PVCTTE, and the catalytic triads putatively involved in peroxidase and phospholipase A2 activities. Expression of SmPrx6 was detected in most fish organs, with the highest expression levels found in blood and heart and the lowest level in spleen. Experimental challenges with bacterial pathogens and poly(I:C) upregulated SmPrx6 expression in liver and spleen in a manner that is dependent on the challenging agent and the tissue type. Treatment of cultured primary hepatocytes with H2O2 enhanced SmPrx6 expression in a dose-dependent manner. Recombinant SmPrx6 expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli exhibited thiol-dependent antioxidant activity and could protect cultured hepatocytes from H2O2-induced oxidative damage. Taken together, these results indicate that SmPrx6 is a Prx6 homologue with antioxidative property and is likely to be involved in both cellular maintenance and protective response during host immune defense against bacterial infection.
