Immunological and biochemical characterization of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins I and J (SPE-I and SPE-J) from Streptococcus pyogenes.
Recently, we described the identification of novel streptococcal superantigens (SAgs) by mining the Streptococcus pyogenes M1 genome database at Oklahoma University. Here, we report the cloning, expression, and functional analysis of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin (SPE)-J and another novel SAg (SPE-I). SPE-I is most closely related to SPE-H and staphylococcal enterotoxin I, whereas SPE-J is m...
متن کاملExpression and characterization of a DNase I-Fc fusion enzyme.
Recombinant human deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is an important clinical agent that is inhaled into the airways where it degrades DNA to lower molecular weight fragments, thus reducing the viscoelasticity of sputum and improving the lung function of cystic fibrosis patients. To investigate DNases with potentially improved properties, we constructed a molecular fusion of human DNase I with the h...
متن کاملAssociation of Gln222Arg polymorphism in the deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) gene with myocardial infarction in Japanese patients.
AIMS We have recently reported that serum deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) activity, which may be involved in apoptosis, increases abruptly in the early phase of acute myocardial infarction (MI) [Kawai Y, Yoshida M, Arakawa K, Kumamoto T, Morikawa N, Masamura K, Tada H, Ito S, Hoshizaki H, Oshima S, Taniguchi K, Terasawa H, Miyamori I, Kishi K, Yasuda T. Diagnostic use of serum deoxyribonuclease I...
متن کاملReconstitution of a deoxyribonuclease I-sensitive structure on active genes.
Chicken erythrocyte nuclei have been labeled in the active regions of the chromosome by using the nick translation reaction. In this procedure, accessible areas of the genome are preferentially nicked by the action of pancreatic DNase I and subsequently labeled by using DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli. These nuclei were employed as a substrate for studying the factors responsible for mai...
متن کاملCloning, characterization, and tissue expression pattern of mouse tuftelin cDNA.
Tuftelin is a protein that has been suggested to function during enamel crystal nucleation. Published sequences for bovine tuftelin cDNA and genomic clones proposed different reading frames that radically affected the derived amino acid sequence of the tuftelin carboxyl-terminus. We have isolated and characterized a full-length mouse cDNA clone and a partial porcine cDNA clone that include the ...
