Expression and Characterization of Catalytic Domain of T Cell Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase（△TC-PTP） —— Immunohistochemical Study of △TC-PTP Expression in Non-small Cell Lung Carcinomas

This study objective was to express and characterize the catalytic domain of the human T cell protein tyrosine phosphatase（△TC-PTP） and to study immunohistochemically the expression of △TC-PTP in human non-small cell lung cancers. △TC-PTP gene was PCR amplified with the cDNA of human TC-PTP as template, and cloned into the pT7 expression vector. The recombinant pT7-△TC-PTP was expressed in E. coli Rosetta （ DE3 ） host cells and puri- fied. The enzymatic characteristics of △TC-PTP including enzyme activity and kinetics assay were measured. The antiserum was prepared by immunizing rabbit with the purified recombinant △TC-PTP. Rabbit polyclonal antibody against △TC-PTP was purified by PVDF immobilized antigen affinity chromatography. Immunohistochemical staining of lung cancer tissues was performed with antibody against △TC-PTP protein. △TC-PTP gene was correctly cloned, expressed, and purified. The recombinant △TC-PTP had a highly catalytic activity of PTPase. Squamous cell lung carcinoma showed a significantly higher expression rate of △TC-PTP （76. 92%, 10/13 ） than adenocarcinoma （57.14%, 4/7） and normal lung tissue（20%, 1/5 ）. This study represents the first demonstration that △TC-PTP is highly expressed in human squamous cell lung carcinomas. In addition, this study provides an important basis for further studying the biological function of TC-PTP and its relationship with lung carcinomas and other diseases.

<正>PTPMEG1 is an intracellular protein tyrosine phosphatase(PTP),which contains FERM and PDZ domains. This study focuses our attention on the expression,purification and characterization of catalytic domain of PTPMEG1(△MEG1) and preparation of its polyclonal antibody.A cDNA fragment encoding△MEG1 protein(amino acid residues 643—926) was amplified by PCR and then cloned into the pT7-7 vector.Both soluble and insoluble recombinant△MEG1 proteins were observed after induction by IPTG.Soluble△MEG1 was purified via two chromatographic steps,and the purified enzyme was characterized.With para-nitrophenylphosphate(pNPP) as a substrate,△MEG1 exhibited typical enzymatic characteristics of classic PTPs and classical Michaelis-Menten kinetics.Insoluble△MEG1,which was mainly distributed in the inclusion body of E.coli cells extracts,was purified by preparative electrophoresis gel for the preparation of the polyclonal antibody.A rabbit was immunized with△MEG1 purified by preparative electrophoresis to generate anti-△MEG1 antibody.Anti-serum was collected on 28th day after initial injection and purified via affinity chromatography.The purified polyconal antibody displayed a satisfactory titer and sensitivity.     

基于片段的核磁共振筛选方法识别NSD1 SET结构域的全新苗头化合物

包含SET结构域的核受体结合蛋白1（NSD1）是一种组蛋白甲基转移酶,它能够特异性的甲基化组蛋白H3赖氨酸第36位（H3K36）.异常表达的NSD1主要发现于Sotos综合症患者体内,但它同样也能导致其他多种人类疾病的发生.目前已有靶向组蛋白甲基转移酶DOT1L和EZH2的小分子抑制剂报道,然而,靶向NSD1的化学探针分子尚未被发现.本文使用基于片段的核磁共振（NMR）筛选方法寻找到3个以NSD1蛋白作为靶点的苗头化合物,利用化学位移扰动分析技术测定了这些化合物与NSD1的结合亲和力.另外,利用分子对接方法选择获得苗头化合物与NSD1蛋白的最可能的结合模型.结果显示苗头化合物1结合于NSD1天然底物S-腺苷酸甲硫氨酸（SAM）的结合口袋中.我们的研究成果为进一步以结构为指导的从苗头化合物到先导化合物的衍化奠定了基础.
