Definitions
- a new peptide a group of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase-like proteins 13. 2
- the present invention belongs to the field of biotechnology. Specifically, the present invention describes a new polypeptide, a group of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase-like proteins 13.2, and a polynucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide. The invention also relates to a preparation method and application of the polynucleotide and polypeptide. Background technique
- tRM functions to map the codons of the mRNA to the corresponding amino acids. There is no structural correlation between the anti-codon on the tRNA molecule and its corresponding amino acid, and tRM itself cannot catalyze the load of the corresponding amino acid.
- the reaction that combines tRNA with the corresponding amino acid is the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase Catalytic.
- aminoacyl tRNA synthetase synthesizes aminoacyl-tRM in two steps: the amino acid is first activated to aminoacyladenylate, and then aminoacyladenylate and tRNA generate aminoacyl-tRNA.
- Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase recognizes different tRNAs through "codons" on the tRNA molecule in order to bind the correct amino acid to the tRNA.
- Each amino acid corresponds to an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, so there are 20 different aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases for 20 amino acids. But these 20 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are related to each other. Depending on the structure and sequence, the 20 aminoacyl-tRM synthetases can be divided into two classes, class I and class ⁇ .
- the catalytic part of Class I enzymes contains a backbone composed of Rossmann folds, which is a type of nucleic acid binding region; the backbone of Class I enzymes consists of a new anti-parallel fold.
- aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase N-terminal sequences are quite conserved, especially the tetrapeptide sequence H s- l ie- Gly- Hi s C HIGH. This sequence is in arginine, tryptophan, glutamic acid, isoleucine
- aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases such as lysine, methionine, and tyrosine are found. They are all class I synthetases.
- Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases provide usable aminoacyl-tRNA for protein synthesis. If a certain aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is deleted, the corresponding aminoacyl-tRNA will not be formed properly, resulting in the premature termination of the protein synthesis process and the formation of a non-functional protein. If a certain aminoacyl-tRM synthetase is mutated to recognize another amino acid, the resulting protein contains an incorrect amino acid sequence. If the mutation occurs at an amino acid site that is critical to the function of the protein, then The formed protein will not fold properly without function, or the function is weakened or enhanced, or the functioning substrate is changed to change its function. This functional change often leads to disease.
- Ras protein is found, and 61 out of 12 Ras
- the point mutation of the residue, and the replacement of valine by glycine inhibit the activity of Ras itself and GTP enzyme stimulated by GAP, so Ras-GTP cannot be converted into Ras-GDP, resulting in Ras in a long-term active state, without stopping downstream Send out signals, cause abnormal proliferation of cells, and lead to the occurrence of cancer.
- Mutations in aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase may also cause protein sorting and secretion disorders and dysfunction of membrane receptors, which can cause various endocrine diseases, immune system diseases, and neuromuscular system diseases.
- histidine-tRNA synthetase-like protein 13.2 protein plays an important role in regulating important functions of the body, such as cell division and embryonic development, and it is believed that a large number of proteins are involved in these regulatory processes, so the identification of Many histidine-tRNA synthetases involved in these processes are similar to the protein 13.2 protein, especially the amino acid sequence of this protein is identified.
- the isolation of the new histidine-tRNA synthetase-like protein 13.2 gene also provides a basis for research to determine the role of this protein in health and disease states. This protein may form the basis for the development of diagnostic and / or therapeutic drugs for diseases, so it is important to isolate its coding DNA. Disclosure of invention

和编码这种多肽的多核苷酸 And a polynucleotide encoding this polypeptide
技术领域 Technical field
本发明属于生物技术领域, 具体地说, 本发明描述了一种新的多肽一一组 氨酰- tRNA合成酶类似蛋白 13. 2 , 以及编码此多肽的多核苷酸序列。 本发明还 涉及此多核苷酸和多肽的制备方法和应用。 背景技术 The present invention belongs to the field of biotechnology. Specifically, the present invention describes a new polypeptide, a group of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase-like proteins 13.2, and a polynucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide. The invention also relates to a preparation method and application of the polynucleotide and polypeptide. Background technique
tRM起着将 mRNA的密码子与相应的氨基酸对应起来的功能。 tRNA分子上 的反密码子与其对应的氨基酸之间并无结构上的相关性, 而且 tRM本身并不 能催化相应氨基酸的荷载, 将 tRNA与相应的氨基酸结合起来的反应是由氨酰 基- tRNA合成酶催化的。 tRM functions to map the codons of the mRNA to the corresponding amino acids. There is no structural correlation between the anti-codon on the tRNA molecule and its corresponding amino acid, and tRM itself cannot catalyze the load of the corresponding amino acid. The reaction that combines tRNA with the corresponding amino acid is the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase Catalytic.
氨酰基 tRNA合成酶合成氨酰基- tRM的反应分为两步: 氨基酸首先活化成 氨酰基腺苷酸, 之后, 氨酰基腺苷酸再与 tRNA生成氨酰基 -tRNA。 氨酰基 -tRNA 合成酶通过 tRNA分子上的 "副密码子" 来识别不同的 tRNA, 以便把正确的氨 基酸与 tRNA结合起来。 The aminoacyl tRNA synthetase synthesizes aminoacyl-tRM in two steps: the amino acid is first activated to aminoacyladenylate, and then aminoacyladenylate and tRNA generate aminoacyl-tRNA. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase recognizes different tRNAs through "codons" on the tRNA molecule in order to bind the correct amino acid to the tRNA.
每一种氨基酸都对应着一种氨酰基 -tRNA合成酶, 因此, 20种氨基酸就有 20 种不同的氨酰基 -tRNA合成酶。 但这 20种氨酰基 -tRNA合成酶彼此是有关系的。 根据结构和序列的不同, 20种氨酰基- tRM合成酶可以分成两类, I类和 Π类。 I类酶的催化部分含有 Ros smann折叠构成的骨架, 这是一种核酸结合区域; I I 类酶的骨架则由一种新的反向平行折叠构成。 Each amino acid corresponds to an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, so there are 20 different aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases for 20 amino acids. But these 20 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are related to each other. Depending on the structure and sequence, the 20 aminoacyl-tRM synthetases can be divided into two classes, class I and class Π. The catalytic part of Class I enzymes contains a backbone composed of Rossmann folds, which is a type of nucleic acid binding region; the backbone of Class I enzymes consists of a new anti-parallel fold.
有些氨酰基- tRNA合成酶的 N端序列相当保守, 特别是四肽序列 H i s- l ie- Gly- Hi s C HIGH . 此序列在精氨酸, 色氨酸, 谷氨酸, 异亮氨酸, 蛋氨酸, 酪氨酸等的相应的氨酰基 -tRNA合成酶中都有发现。 它们都属于 I类合成酶。 Some aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase N-terminal sequences are quite conserved, especially the tetrapeptide sequence H s- l ie- Gly- Hi s C HIGH. This sequence is in arginine, tryptophan, glutamic acid, isoleucine Corresponding aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases such as lysine, methionine, and tyrosine are found. They are all class I synthetases.
氨酰基 -tRNA 合成酶提供合成蛋白质的可用的氨酰基 -tRNA。 如果某种氨酰基- tRNA 合成酶缺失, 会造成对应的氨酰基 -tRNA 不能正确形成, 导致合成蛋白质过 程的过早终止, 形成没有功能的蛋白。 如果某种氨酰基- tRM合成酶发生突变, 识 别另一种氨基酸, 则形成的蛋白质包含不正确的氨基酸序列, 如果这种变异发生 在对该蛋白质的功能来说关键的氨基酸位点上, 那么形成的蛋白质将不能正确折 叠而没有功能, 或者功能减弱或增强, 或者改变了作用的底物而使其功能发生变 化。 这种功能上的变化常常导致疾病。 Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases provide usable aminoacyl-tRNA for protein synthesis. If a certain aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase is deleted, the corresponding aminoacyl-tRNA will not be formed properly, resulting in the premature termination of the protein synthesis process and the formation of a non-functional protein. If a certain aminoacyl-tRM synthetase is mutated to recognize another amino acid, the resulting protein contains an incorrect amino acid sequence. If the mutation occurs at an amino acid site that is critical to the function of the protein, then The formed protein will not fold properly without function, or the function is weakened or enhanced, or the functioning substrate is changed to change its function. This functional change often leads to disease.

氨酰基 -tRNA合成酶的突变还可能蛋白质的分拣和分泌紊乱以及膜受体的功 能失常等, 引起各种内分泌疾病, 免疫系统疾病, 神经肌肉系统疾病等。 Mutations in aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase may also cause protein sorting and secretion disorders and dysfunction of membrane receptors, which can cause various endocrine diseases, immune system diseases, and neuromuscular system diseases.

Sharp (1988) Gene 73: 237-244)„ C lus ter法通过检查所有配对之间的 距离将各组序列排列成簇。 然后将各簇以成对或成组分配。 两个氨基酸序列如 序列 A和序列 B之间的相同性百分率通过下式计算: 序列 A与序列 B之间匹配的残基个数 X 100 序列 A的残基数一序列 A中间隔残基数一序列 B中间隔残基数 也可以通过 C lus ter法或用本领域周知的方法如 Jotun He in 测定核酸序列 之间的相同性百分率(He in J. , (1990) Me thods in emzumo l ogy 183: 625—645)。 (Lasergene s of tware package, DNASTAR, Inc., Madi son Wi s.). The MEGALIGN program can compare two or more sequences according to different methods, such as the Clus ter method (Higginis, DG and PM Sharp (1988) Gene 73: 237-244). The C luster method checks all pairs The sequences of each group are arranged into clusters. The clusters are then allocated in pairs or groups. The percent identity between two amino acid sequences such as sequence A and sequence B is calculated by the following formula: Between sequence A and sequence B The number of matching residues X 100 The number of residues in sequence A-the number of spacer residues in sequence A-the number of spacer residues in sequence B can also be determined by Cluster method or by methods known in the art such as Jotun He in Percent identity between sequences (He in J., (1990) Methods in emzumo l ogy 183: 625-645).

Amino acids used for conservative substitutions, for example, negatively charged amino acids may include aspartic acid and glutamic acid; positively charged amino acids may include lysine and arginine; having an uncharged head group is Similar hydrophilic amino acids may include leucine, isoleucine and valine; glycine and alanine; asparagine and glutamine; serine and threonine; phenylalanine and tyrosine. "Antisense" refers to a nucleotide sequence that is complementary to a particular DNA or RNA sequence. "Antisense strand" refers to a nucleic acid strand that is complementary to the "sense strand".

"分离的" 一词指将物质从它原来的环境 (例如, 若是自然产生的就指其 天然环境) 之中移出。 比如说, 一个自然产生的多核苷酸或多肽存在于活动物 中就是没有被分离出来, 但同样的多核苷酸或多肽同一些或全部在自然系统中 与之共存的物质分开就是分离的。 这样的多核苷酸可能是某一载体的一部分, 也可能这样的多核苷酸或多肽是某一组合物的一部分。 既然载体或组合物不是 它天然环境的成分, 它们仍然是分离的。 The term "isolated" refers to the removal of a substance from its original environment (for example, its natural environment if it is naturally occurring). For example, a naturally-occurring polynucleotide or polypeptide is not isolated when it is present in a living thing, but the same polynucleotide or polypeptide is separated from some or all of the substances that coexist with it in the natural system. Such a polynucleotide may be part of a certain vector, or such a polynucleotide or polypeptide may be part of a certain composition. Since the carrier or composition is not part of its natural environment, they are still isolated.
如本发明所用, "分离的" 是指物质从其原始环境中分离出来 (如果是天 然的物质, 原始环境即是天然环境) 。 如活体细胞内的天然状态下的多聚核苷 酸和多肽是没有分离纯化的, 但同样的多聚核苷酸或多肽如从天然状态中同存 在的其他物质中分开, 则为分离纯化的。 As used herein, "isolated" refers to the separation of a substance from its original environment (if it is a natural substance, the original environment is the natural environment).

For example, the probes can be used to hybridize to genomic or cDNA libraries of normal tissue or pathological tissue from different sources to It is determined whether it contains the polynucleotide sequence of the present invention and a homologous polynucleotide sequence is detected. Further, the probe can be used to detect the polynucleotide sequence of the present invention or its homologous polynucleotide sequence in normal tissues or Whether the expression in tissue cells is abnormal. The purpose of this embodiment is to select a suitable oligonucleotide fragment from the polynucleotide SEQ ID NO: 1 of the present invention as a hybridization probe, and to identify whether some tissues contain the polynucleoside of the present invention by a filter hybridization method. Acid sequence or a homologous polynucleotide sequence thereof. Filter hybridization methods include dot blotting, Southern blotting, Northern blotting, and copying methods. They all use the same steps of hybridization after fixing the polynucleotide sample to be tested on the filter. These same steps are as follows: The sample-immobilized filter is first pre-hybridized with a probe-free hybridization buffer, so that the non-specific binding site of the sample on the filter is saturated with the carrier and the synthetic polymer. The pre-hybridization solution is then replaced with a hybridization buffer containing the labeled probe and incubated to hybridize the probe to the target nucleic acid. After the hybridization step, the unhybridized probes are removed by a series of membrane washing steps. This embodiment utilizes higher-intensity washing conditions (such as lower salt concentration and higher temperature) to reduce the hybridization background and retain only strong specific signals. The probes used in this embodiment include two types: the first type of probes are oligonucleotide fragments that are completely the same as or complementary to the polynucleotide SEQ ID NO: 1 of the present invention; the second type of probes are partially related to the present invention The polynucleotide SEQ ID NO: 1 is the same or complementary oligonucleotide fragment. In this embodiment, the dot blot method is used to fix the sample on the filter membrane. Under the high-intensity washing conditions, the first type of probe and the sample have the strongest hybridization specificity and are retained.

本发明的序列对染色体鉴定也是有价值的。 该序列会特异性地针对某条人 染色体具体位置且并可以与其杂交。 目前, 需要鉴定染色体上的各基因的具体 位点。 现在, 只有很少的基于实际序列数据(重复多态性)的染色体标记物可用 于标记染色体位置。 根据本发明, 为了将这些序列与疾病相关基因相关联, 其 重要的第一步就是将这些 DM序列定位于染色体上。 The sequences of the invention are also valuable for chromosome identification. The sequence specifically targets a specific position on a human chromosome and can hybridize to it. Currently, specific sites for each gene on the chromosome need to be identified. Currently, only a few chromosome markers based on actual sequence data (repeating polymorphisms) are available for marking chromosome positions. According to the present invention, in order to associate these sequences with disease-related genes, an important first step is to locate these DM sequences on a chromosome.
简而言之, 根据 cDNA制备 PCR引物(优选 15- 35bp) , 可以将序列定位于染色 体上。 然后, 将这些引物用于 PCR飾选含各条人染色体的体细胞杂合细胞。 只 有那些含有相应于引物的人基因的杂合细胞会产生扩增的片段。 In short, PCR primers (preferably 15-35bp) are prepared based on cDNA, and the sequences can be located on chromosomes. These primers were then used for PCR to select somatic hybrid cells containing individual human chromosomes. Only those heterozygous cells containing the human gene corresponding to the primer will produce amplified fragments.
体细胞杂合细胞的 PCR定位 , 是将 DNA定位到具体染色体的快捷方 。 使 用本发明的寡核苷酸引物, 通过类似方 , 可利用一组来自特定染色体的片段 或大量基因组克隆而实现亚定位。 可用于染色体定位的其它类似策略包括原位 杂交、 用标记的流式分选的染色体预筛选和杂交预选, 从而构建染色体特异的 cDM库。 PCR localization of somatic hybrid cells is a quick way to locate DNA to specific chromosomes. Using the oligonucleotide primers of the present invention, by a similar method, a set of fragments from a specific chromosome or a large number of genomic clones can be used to achieve sublocalization. Other similar strategies that can be used for chromosomal localization include in situ hybridization, chromosome pre-screening with labeled flow sorting, and hybrid pre-selection to construct chromosome-specific cDM libraries.
将 cDM克隆与中期染色体进行荧光原位杂交(FISH), 可以在一个步骤中精 确地进行染色体定位。 此技术的综述, 参见 Verma等, Human Chromos omes: a Manua l of Ba s i c Techni ques, Pergamon Pres s , New York (1988)。 Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) of cDM clones with metaphase chromosomes allows precise chromosomal localization in one step. For a review of this technique, see Verma et al., Human Chromos omes: a Manua l of Basic Techniques, Pergamon Pres s, New York (1988).
一旦序列被定位到准确的染色体位置, 此序列在染色体上的物理位置就可 以与基因图数据相关联。 这些数据可见于例如, V. Mckus i ck, Mendel i an Once the sequence is located at the exact chromosomal location, the physical location of the sequence on the chromosome can be To correlate with genetic map data. These data can be found in, for example, V. Mckus i ck, Mendel i an
Inher i tance in Man (可通过与 Johns Hopkins Univers i ty Welch Medica l Library联机获得)。 然后可通过连锁分析, 确定基因与业巳定位到染色体区域 上的疾病之间的关系。 Inher i tance in Man (available online with Johns Hopkins University Welch Medica l Library). Linkage analysis can then be used to determine the relationship between genes and diseases that are mapped to chromosomal regions.
接着, 需要测定患病和未患病个体间的 cDNA或基因组序列差异。 如果在一 些或所有的患病个体中观察到某突变, 而该突变在任何正常个体中未观察到, 则该突变可能是疾病的病因。 比较患病和未患病个体, 通常涉及首先寻找染色 体中结构的变化, 如从染色体水平可见的或用基于 cDNA序列的 PCR可检测的缺 失或易位。 根据目前的物理作图和基因定位技术的分辨能力, 被精确定位至与 疾病有关的染色体区域的 cDNA, 可以是 50至 500个潜在致病基因间之一种(假定 1兆碱基作图分辨能力和每 20kb对应于一个基因)。 Next, the difference in cDNA or genomic sequence between the affected and unaffected individuals needs to be determined. If a mutation is observed in some or all diseased individuals and the mutation is not observed in any normal individuals, the mutation may be the cause of the disease. Comparing affected and unaffected individuals usually involves first looking for structural changes in chromosomes, such as deletions or translocations that are visible at the chromosomal level or detectable with cDNA sequence-based PCR. According to the resolution capabilities of current physical mapping and gene mapping technology, the cDNA accurately mapped to the chromosomal region associated with the disease can be one of 50 to 500 potentially pathogenic genes (assuming 1 megabase mapping resolution) Capacity and each 20kb corresponds to a gene).
