    摘要: Rbx1, an evolutionarily conserved Cullin-interacting RING-H2 finger protein, has been discovered. Mammalian Rbx1 has been identified as a component of the CUL2-containing VHL complex. An Rbx1 homolog from S. cerevisiae has also been identified as a subunit and activator of the Cdc53-containing SCFCdc4 ubiquitin ligase required for ubiquitination of the cdk inhibitor Sic1 and for the G1/S cell cycle transition in yeast, providing a link between the multiprotein VHL tumor suppressor complex and cellular ubiquitination. The Rbx1 protein acts as a cellular marker useful (1) in detecting a possible predisposition to certain carcinomas, (2) as a molecular target for treating those carcinomas therapeutically. (3) as a target for inhibition by drugs that manipulate the growth of cells, and (4) as a research tool to better understand the various complex mechanisms of cell ubiquitination, binding of certain activator proteins, fibronectin deposition and other aspects of the cellular division process.

    摘要: A process is disclosed which makes possible the isolation of the luminal endothelial cell membrane from associated tissue. It is particularly applicable to vasculature, but broadly is applicable to all tissue cavities which are accessible from adjacent perfusable lumens. The method involves the identification of characteristic molecules (primarily proteins and lipids) associated with the luminal surface of the any endothelial membrane in situ by utilizing a novel membrane-isolation scheme to separate the endothelium from associated tissue. The normal form of that tissue of interest and diseased and/or dysfunctional forms (such as tumors) can then be examined comparatively in order to identify proteins highly enriched and/or unique for normal and abnormal endothelia. This in turn permits the production of antibodies to the proteins of interest in order to develop probes specific for the abnormal tissue, such as vasculature of a tumor. In this method, the endothelial luminal plasmalemma of a given organ is coated with colloidal silica by perfusion, a pellicle is formed, the coated area of tissue is excised and the coated plasmalemma fragments are isolated from the cognate homogenate by centrifugation. The isolated plasmalemma attached to the pellicle can then be subjected to biochemical analysis to identify and catalogue molecules characteristic of the endothelial membrane.

    摘要: A megakaryocyte stimulatory factor (MSF), purified to homogeneity, is an acidic protein (pI=5.1) with an Mr=15,000 which stimulates PF4-like protein synthesis in rat promegakaryoblast cells by as much as 7-fold, and exhibits half-maximal activity at a concentration of 0.8 pM. MSF exhibits no biologic activity corresponding to other known hemopoietic growth factors, and appears to be specific for the megakaryocyte lineage.In the given examples, MSF was purified to homogeneity (as judged by SDS-PAGE and isoelectric focusing in the presence of 9.2 M urea) from serum-free conditioned medium obtained from cultured human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells, and to near homogeneity from thrombocytopenic plasma. The MSF is isolated by precipitating the MSF with ammonium sulfate at 80% saturation, removing insoluble, non-MSF material and applying the soluble protein to a WGA-Sepharose column, eluting the MSF protein with chitin oligosaccharides, applying the concentrated eluant containing MSF activity to a Biogel P200 column, and chromatographing the eluted MSF fractions on a TSK-G3000 HPLC size exclusion column.

    摘要: An autocrine crystal adhesion inhibitor called CAI is an anionic, sialic acid-containing glycoprotein secreted by kidney epithelial cells that blocks adhesion of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals to the cell surface. Novel amino acid sequences are shown for the amino-acid terminus and 6 interval fragments. Persons may be classified according to risk of developing kidney stones, by measuring the amount of CAI in a biological sample. Treatment efficacy is also monitored by this method. CAI is administered in vivo to prevent nephrolithiasis. A rapid, simple assay to detect agents that inhibit adhesion of COM crystals to the surface of kidney epithelial cells is characterized.

    摘要: Disclosed are novel polypeptides possessing part or all of the primary structural conformation and one or more of the biological properties of mammalian erythropoietin ("EPO") which are characterized in preferred forms by being the product of procaryotic or eucaryotic host expression of an exogenous DNA sequence. Illustratively, genomic DNA, cDNA and manufactured DNA sequences coding for part or all of the sequence of amino acid residues of EPO or for analogs thereof are incorporated into autonomously replicating plasmid or viral vectors employed to transform or transfect suitable procaryotic or eucaryotic host cells such as bacteria, yeast or vertebrate cells in culture. Upon isolation from culture media or cellular lysates or fragments, products of expression of the DNA sequences display, e.g., the immunological properties and in vitro and in vivo biological activities of EPO of human or monkey species origins. Disclosed also are chemically synthesized polypeptides sharing the biochemical and immunological properties of EPO. Also disclosed are improved methods for the detection of specific single stranded polynucleotides in a heterologous cellular or viral sample prepared from, e.g., DNA present in a plasmid or viral-borne cDNA or genomic DNA "library".
