Denne protokol er et yderst effektiv ekspression, oprensning og kvantificering ordning for isolering af DHX36 genproduktet, G4-Resolvase1 (G4R1, også kaldet RHAU og DHX36) (figur 1). Denne protokol udnytter to rensningstrin: His-tag rensning affinitet på kobolt affinitet perler og enzymatisk oprensning på G4-DNA-konjugerede perler. Det sidstnævnte trin er enestående, fordi den udnytter den stramme affinitet, høj specificitet, og katalytisk unwinding aktivitet, rG4R1 har til G4 strukturer. Den stra...

G4 strukturer er meget stabile nukleinsyre sekundære strukturer, der danner inden guanin-rige områder af DNA og RNA. G4 strukturer stabiliseres via Hoogsteen-bonding interaktioner og koordinere binding i den centrale hulrum med monovalente kationer (dvs.. K + og Na +), der bidrager betydeligt til at bemærkelsesværdige termiske stabilitet af G4 strukturer 1, 2. Tidlige bioinformatiske undersøgelser antydet, at det humane genom indeholder&gt; 375.000 &quot;potentielle G4-dannende motiver&quot; 3, 4. Nyere undersøgelse skøn tyder på, at antallet af G4 motiver er højere med en faktor på 2-5 5, mens en anden undersøgelse forudsiger 716,310 distinkte potentielle G4-dannende sekvenser i det humane genom 6. G4-dannende sekvenser er konserveret evolutionært og ikke tilfældigt dispergeret igenomet. G4 motiver er beriget i gen kodende regioner, og op mod 40% af alle genpromotorer indeholder G4 motiver 7. Interessant nok er blevet påvist berigningsgrad af G4 motiver i et gen, der tyder funktionen af ​​genet. For eksempel, proto-onkogener og gener involveret i udvikling har signifikant større berigelse af G4 strukturer end tumorsuppressorgener 8, 9. Med høje termiske stabiliteter, en næsten allestedsnærværende i genomet, og potentialet til væsentlig indvirkning store cellulære processer, er det ikke overraskende at finde, at cellen har udviklet enzymer til at håndtere disse strukturer. En sådan enzym er G4 Resolvase1 (G4R1, også kaldet RHAU og DHX36), som vi karakteriseret som kilde til de fleste tetramolecular G4-DNA løse aktivitet i humane (HeLa-celler) 10. Siden da er det blevet vist that G4R1 stramt binder og katalytisk vikler tetramolecular og unimolekylær G4-DNA og G4-RNA med de snævreste indberettede KDs for en G4-bindende protein 11, 12, 13. Derudover har G4-løsning aktivitet af G4R1 blevet impliceret i en lang række biokemiske og cellulære processer, herunder telomer / telomerase biologi 11, 14, 15, 16, transkription og splejsning 17, 18, 19, 20, udvikling 21, hæmatopoiese 21, og immune regulering 22, 23. Med en overvægt af G4 sekvenser specifikt placeret i hele genomet og forskelligartede cellulære processes at G4R1 nylig har været impliceret at være involveret med, evnen til at udtrykke og effektivt rense højaktive rG4R1 vil være af største betydning for at belyse de biokemiske mekanismer og adfærd i dette protein. Her udviser vi en hidtil ukendt ekspression og oprensning ordning (figur 1), der drager fordel af ATP-afhængige, G4-løsning aktivitet af rG4R1 til effektivt at isolere aktive enzym. Denne ordning kan tilpasses til at oprense andre ATP-afhængige nucleinsyre enzymer, som produktet af den enzymatiske reaktion er ikke længere et substrat til binding, som det er tilfældet for G4R1.

a g-quadruplex dna-affinity approach for purification of enzymatically active g4 resolvase1

Højere orden nukleinsyrestrukturer kaldet G-quadruplexes (G4S, G4 strukturer) kan dannes i guanin-rige regioner af både DNA og RNA og er stærkt termisk stabile. Der er&gt; 375.000 formodede G4-dannende sekvenser i det humane genom, og de er beriget med promotorområder, utranslaterede regioner (UTR&#39;er), og inden for telomere repeat. På grund af risikoen for disse strukturer til at påvirke cellulære processer, såsom replikation og transkription, har cellen udviklet enzymer til at håndtere dem. Et sådant enzym er G4 resolvase 1 (G4R1), der blev biokemisk co-karakteriseret ved vores laboratorium og Nagamine et al. og fundet at binde ekstremt tæt til både G4-DNA og G4-RNA (K d i lav-pM område). G4R1 er kilden til hovedparten af ​​G4-løsning aktivitet i HeLa cellelysater og er siden blevet impliceret at spille en rolle i telomer metabolisme, lymfe udvikling, gentranskription, hæmatopoiese, og immunovervågning. Evnen til at efkeligt udtrykke og rense katalytisk aktiv G4R1 er af betydning for laboratorier interesseret i at få yderligere indsigt i den kinetiske interaktion af G4 strukturer og G4-løsning enzymer. Her beskriver vi en detaljeret metode til oprensning af rekombinant G4R1 (rG4R1). Den beskrevne procedure inkorporerer den traditionelle affinitet-baseret oprensning af en C-terminal histidin-mærket enzym udtrykt i humane kodonoptimerede bakterier med udnyttelsen af ​​evnen hos rG4R1 at binde og slappe G4-DNA at oprense højaktiv enzym i en ATP- afhængig elueringstrin. Protokollen indeholder også en kvalitetskontrol trin, hvor den enzymatiske aktivitet af rG4R1 måles ved at undersøge muligheden for det rensede enzym at slappe G4-DNA. Fremgangsmåde er også beskrevet, som muliggør kvantificering af oprenset rG4R1. Alternative tilpasninger af denne protokol diskuteres.

Denne protokol (figur 1) rutinemæssigt giver næsten ren, katalytisk aktiv rG4R1. Som et mål for enzymatisk aktivitet, er det typisk observeret, at 50% af 0,2 pmol TAMRA-mærket tetramolecular G4-DNA omdannes til monomerer inden for 0,2 - 0,013 pi række rG4R1, som analyseret ved G4 aktivitetsassay ovenfor (figur skitseret 2). Coomassie-farvning af oprenset rG4R1 angiver et enkelt bånd ved den forventede 120 kDa størrelse, med en mindre kontaminerende bånd ved ~ 75...

A G-quadruplex DNA-affinity Approach for Purification of Enzymatically Active G4 Resolvase1

G4 Resolvase1 binder til G-quadruplex (G4) strukturer med de strammeste rapporterede affinitet for et G4-bindende protein og repræsenterer størstedelen af ​​G4-DNA unwinding aktivitet i HeLa-celler. Vi beskriver en hidtil ukendt protokol, der udnytter affinitet og ATP afhængige afvikling aktivitet af G4-Resolvase1 til specifikt oprense katalytisk aktivt rekombinant G4R1.
