Disulfide bond mutations affect the folding of the human chorionic gonadotropin-beta subunit in transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells.
Previous kinetic studies have characterized the intracellular folding pathway of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)-beta subunit in which each of the folding intermediates can be biochemically identified based on the formation of disulfide (S-S) bonds: p beta 1-early--> p beta 1-late--> p beta 2-free--> p beta 2-combined--> native hCG-alpha beta. Based on these data, we postulated that hCG-...
متن کاملP-234: Expression of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Hormone Using Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
Background: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a member of glycoprotein hormones family consist of two different non-covalently heterodimeric chains: alpha and beta subunits with 92 and 145 amino acids respectively. This hormone plays an important role in human reproduction and physiology especially for maintenance of the corpus luteum during the first months of pregnancy Materials and Metho...
متن کاملUsing transient transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by pET28a-LIC-NTF4 in gene therapy
Introduction: Neurotrophins, as a family of proteins, are responsible for induction of the survival, development, and function of neurons. Also, neurotropic factors are growth factors like Neurotrophins that help neurons survive. Moreover, Neurotrophins differentiate between progenitor cells so that neurons are formed. Despite the fact that the majority of mammalian brain neurons are produced p...
متن کاملRole of disulfide bond formation in the folding of human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit into an alpha beta dimer assembly-competent form.
The malignant trophoblastic cell line JAR was used as a model system to study protein folding in intact cells. We have used this model previously to identify conformational intermediates in the production of an assembly-competent form of the human chorionic gonadotropin beta subunit (Ruddon, R. W., Krzesicki, R. F., Norton, S. E., Beebe, J. S., Peters, B. P., and Perini, F. (1987) J. Biol. Chem...
متن کاملEXPRESSION OF HUMAN PROTEINASE 3 IN CHINESE HAMSTER OVARY CELLS (CHO-CELLS)
Proteinase 3(PR3) is a human polymorphonuclear leukocyte serine proteinase and is the main target antigen for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) found in Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). We developed a stable expression system for conformationally intact recombinant PR3 (rPR3) in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-cells). The part of PR3 cDNA that encoded the active form of PR3 was s...
