Structural requirements for intracellular targeting of SP-C proprotein.
Rat surfactant protein (SP) C is synthesized as a 194-amino acid proprotein that is proteolytically processed to a 35-amino acid mature form in subcellular compartments distal to the medial Golgi compartment. To identify domains of SP-C proprotein (proSP-C) necessary for endoplasmic reticulum translocation and for targeting to cytosolic processing compartments, we characterized expression patte...
متن کاملStructural requirements for palmitoylation of surfactant protein C precursor.
Pulmonary surfactant protein C (SP-C) propeptide (proSP-C) is a type II transmembrane protein that is palmitoylated on two cysteines adjacent to its transmembrane domain. To study the structural requirements for palmitoylation of proSP-C, His-tagged human proSP-C and mutant forms were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells and analysed by metabolic labelling with [3H]palmitate. Mutations were...
متن کاملStructural Requirements for Pairing
The class II antigens ofthe human MHC are cell surface heterodimers composed of noncovalently linked 35-kD a chains and 29-kD (3 chains . These antigens are present on macrophages, B lymphocytes, and other APC (for review, see reference 1). Class II antigens are capable of binding immunogenic peptides and thereby serve as ligand for the TCR (2, 3) . Recent experiments have demonstrated that cla...
متن کاملStructural requirements of oleosin domains for subcellular targeting to the oil body.
We have investigated the protein domains responsible for the correct subcellular targeting of plant seed oleosins. We have attempted to study this targeting in vivo using "tagged" oleosins in transgenic plants. Different constructs were prepared lacking gene sequences encoding one of three structural domains of natural oleosins. Each was fused in frame to the Escherichia coli uid A gene encodin...
