Abstract
After intrapulmonary deposition of IgG or IgA immune complexes, injury has been recently shown to be CD18-dependent in both cases and E-selection-dependent only in the former case. In our studies further evaluation of the requirements for beta 1 and beta 2 integrins and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) has been undertaken. In the IgG immune complex model, which is neutrophil dependent, anti-CD11a reduced injury (as measured by changes in permeability and hemorrhage) by 61 and 43%, respectively, whereas a newly developed anti-CD11b produced minimal protection (16 and 19%, respectively). Treatment of rats with increasing doses (1.5- and 3.0-fold) of antibody to rat CD11b failed to demonstrate additional protective effects in this model of injury. Anti-ICAM-1 reduced the parameters of injury by 61 and 78%, respectively, while anti-VLA-4 reduced the injury parameters by 40 and 35%, respectively. There were reductions in lung content of myeloperoxidase, roughly corresponding to the protective effects of the interventions. In the IgA immune complex model of injury, in which lung macrophages appear to be the effector cells, anti-CD11a reduced the injury parameters (permeability and hemorrhage) by 36 and 33%, respectively, whereas anti-CD11b reduced the parameters of injury by 63 and 67%, respectively. In this model, anti-ICAM-1 reduced the parameters of injury by 61 and 56%, respectively, while anti-VLA-4 reduced the parameters by 77 and 62%, respectively. The cell content of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids revealed changes that have been shown to reflect protective interventions in both models of immune complex-induced injury. These findings suggest that, in IgG and IgA immune complex models of lung injury, both VLA-4 and ICAM-1 are required, although lymphocyte function-associated Ag-1 is the predominant beta 2 integrin requirement in the IgG immune complex-induced model of injury and Mac-1 is the predominant requirement for IgA immune complex-induced lung injury. Thus, engagement in the lung of adhesion molecules in a manner leading to injury depends on the nature of the inflammatory stimulus and the type of phagocytic cells involved in the development of injury.

Abstract
The bolus i.v. infusion of cobra venom factor into rats results in acute lung injury that is neutrophil-dependent, oxygen radical-mediated, and requires CD18. In our studies a more precise definition regarding the role of beta-integrins and requirements for cytokines was obtained by the use of blocking antibodies. Lung injury was quantitated by changes in permeability (leakage of 125I-BSA) and hemorrhage (extravasation of 51Cr-RBC). In animals treated with anti-CD11a, the permeability and hemorrhage parameters were reduced by 30 and 29%, respectively. Treatment with anti-CD11b resulted in reductions in permeability and hemorrhage by 53 and 48%, respectively, whereas anti-intercellular adhesion molecule-1 reduced the parameters of injury by 60 and 75%, respectively. Not surprisingly, treatment with antibodies to very late Ag-4, TNF-alpha and IL-1 failed to show any protective effects, which contrasts to the requirements for these molecules in lung injury after deposition of IgG immune complexes. Protective interventions were associated with a reduction in lung content of myeloperoxidase. These studies indicate that, in the cobra venom factor model of acute lung injury in rats, engagement of Mac-1, lymphocyte function-associated Ag-1, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 are essential, whereas, in contrast to other models of neutrophil mediated lung injury, cytokines (TNF-alpha and IL-1) and very late Ag-4 are not required for the full development of injury.

Abstract
Requirements for leukocyte adhesion molecules as well as cytokines have been determined in the rat model of acute nephrotoxic nephritis. Proteinuria (at 24 h) and neutrophil accumulation in renal glomeruli (at 6 h) have been used as the endpoints. For full accumulation in glomeruli of neutrophils as well as full development of proteinuria, requirements have been demonstrated for TNF alpha, (but not IL-1), CD11b (but not CD11a), very late arising-4 (CD49d/CD29), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 but not endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (E-selectin). By immunohistochemical approaches, infusion of antibody to glomerular basement membrane induced glomerular upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1, and vascular adhesion molecule-1. Treatment of rats with anti-TNF alpha or soluble recombinant human TNF receptor-1 blocked this expression. Renal arterial infusion of TNF alpha induced glomerular expression of all three endothelial adhesion molecules, but infusion of IL-1 beta did not. These data suggest that, in neutrophil and complement-dependent anti-glomerular basement membrane-induced acute nephritis in rats, there are selective requirements for cytokines, beta 1 and beta 2 integrins, and endothelial adhesion molecules. These requirements contrast with those found in other vascular beds in which complement and neutrophil-induced vascular injury has been induced by deposition of immune complexes.

Abstract
Measles virus (MV) infection of U937 cell or peripheral blood leukocyte cultures was shown to induce changes in the expression of leukocyte function antigen 1 (LFA-1) and cause marked aggregation of these cells. Addition of selected monoclonal antibodies specific for LFA-1 epitopes that did not neutralize MV in standard neutralization assays were found to block both virus-induced leukocyte aggregation and virus dissemination. These data suggest that MV modulation of LFA-1 expression on leukocytes may be an important step in MV pathogenesis.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether immunoneutralization of the common beta-subunit of the neutrophil CD11/CD18 glycoprotein adherence complex with monoclonal antibody IB4 (mAb IB4) or neutrophil depletion with a specific canine polyclonal antineutrophil serum (ANS) would reduce the extent of no-reflow in postischemic skeletal muscle. Microvascular patency was assessed by infusion of india ink contrast media and quantified by counting ink-containing microvessels < 15 microns diameter in histological sections obtained from isolated canine gracilis muscles subjected to 4.5 h of continuous perfusion (nonischemic control), 4 h of ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion [ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)] alone, I/R plus ANS, and I/R plus mAb IB4. I/R was associated with a marked reduction in microvascular patency compared with nonischemic controls (0.9 +/- 0.1 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.1 ink-containing microvessels per muscle fiber, respectively). Neutrophil depletion or prevention of neutrophil adherence attenuated the I/R-induced reduction in the number of ink-containing capillaries (1.6 +/- 0.1 and 2.2 +/- 0.2 ink-containing microvessels per muscle fiber, respectively). These data indicate that neutrophils play an important role in the genesis of no-reflow in postischemic skeletal muscle by a mechanism that appears to involve CD18-dependent neutrophil adhesion to the endothelium.

Abstract
The emigration of leukocytes such as neutrophils into inflammatory sites requires adhesion to the endothelium of small venules. The initial adhesive event is margination characterized by rolling of neutrophils along the luminal surface of the endothelium. Each member of the selectin family of adhesion molecules has been shown to support neutrophil rolling under conditions of flow. E-selectin is synthesized by endothelial cells following cytokine stimulation, P-selectin is rapidly mobilized from Weibel-Palade bodies to the endothelial cell surface following stimulation with agents such as histamine, and L-selectin is constitutively expressed on the surface of leukocytes. Each selectin functions primarily as a lectin, recognizing carbohydrate structures on the leukocyte or endothelial cell surface. Once the marginated neutrophil forms a stationary adhesion with endothelial cells, it is stimulated by chemotactic factors to downregulate the selectin-based adhesion and upregulate adherence dependent on beta 2-integrins, principally CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1) and CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1). These adhesion molecules interact with intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and possibly other structures on the endothelial cell, and the leukocyte rapidly emigrates into surrounding tissue. Transendothelial migration in vitro is markedly inhibited by monoclonal antibodies against CD18 integrins or ICAM-1. Monoclonal antibodies against the selectins, CD18, CD11a, CD11b, and ICAM-1 have all been shown to significantly reduce the influx of neutrophils into sites of inflammation in various animal models.

Abstract
The emigration of neutrophils at sites of inflammation apparently requires intercellular adhesion. Initially, leukocyte adherence is observed in postcapillary venules where neutrophils roll along the luminal surface of the endothelial cells before stopping, changing shape, and migrating into the perivascular tissue. Recent evidence indicates that the adhesion molecules supporting the rolling phenomenon are distinct from those required for stopping and transmigration. The contribution of E-selectin (ELAM-1) to neutrophil adhesion and rolling was investigated using anti-E-selectin monoclonal antibody in an in vitro adhesion assay of isolated human neutrophils to murine L-cell monolayers stably transfected with human E-selectin cDNA. Isolated human neutrophils adhered to E-selectin expressing L-cell monolayers under physiological wall shear stress of 1.85 dynes/cm2 but not to untransfected L-cells or ICAM-1 expressing L-cells. 47.8 +/- 6.0% of these adherent cells were rolling at an average rolling velocity of 10.6 +/- 1.7 microns/second. This adhesion and rolling was almost completely blocked by anti-E-selectin monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibody to L-selectin also reduced adhesion to E-selectin expressing cells by 70%. Chemotactic stimulation of neutrophils reduced both the number of adherent and rolling cells and the average velocity of the rolling cells without influencing the percentage of attached cells that were rolling. Pretreatment with anti-CD18 monoclonal antibody did not reduce the adhesion of the activated neutrophils but reversed the reduction in velocity caused by activation of these cells. The inhibitory potential of the anti-E-selectin monoclonal antibody was much less pronounced in adhesion of isolated neutrophils to human umbilical vein endothelial cell monolayers under conditions of flow and was limited to one third of the total adhesion. The proportion of the adherent neutrophils which transmigrated to the subluminal space of the endothelial cell monolayers was independent of pretreatment with anti-E-selectin monoclonal antibody.

Abstract
A 44-year-old man developed endocarditis due to Curvularia lunata on a Carpentier-Edwards porcine heterograft with clinical involvement of the ring of the aortic valve and the aortic root. Because curative surgery was considered to be extremely high risk, he was treated with antifungal drugs for nearly 7 years. Initial treatment with amphotericin B and ketoconazole was followed by long-term treatment with terbinafine, an experimental allyamine derivative. No adverse effects were attributed to terbinafine. At surgery nearly 7 years later, the aortic valve ring and aortic root appeared to be uninvolved, and the valve was replaced uneventfully. To our knowledge, this is the first report of successful treatment of curvularia endocarditis.

Abstract
Chemotactic stimulation of neutrophils results in translocation of CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1) from intracellular storage pools to the cell surface. Though results from several laboratories indicate that the newly arrived surface Mac-1 is not involved in the adherence induced by the initial stimulus, the present study addresses the hypothesis that this Mac-1 plays a role in subsequent adherence-dependent functions. The response of human neutrophils to changing concentrations of a chemotactic stimulus was evaluated by determining the amount of newly arrived surface Mac-1, and Mac-1-dependent adhesion and locomotion. Small step-wise increases in the concentration of f-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP) resulted in proportional stepwise increases in surface Mac-1 that plateaued within 2-4 min. This newly arrived Mac-1 supported adhesion to protein-coated surfaces only when the cells were exposed to an additional increase in the FMLP stimulus level. Adherence-dependent cellular locomotion was evaluated in chambers that allowed rapid changes in the stimulus concentration. Repeated small increments in the stimulus level at 200-s intervals resulted in significantly longer migration paths than a single-step increase in the stimulus. The results support the hypothesis that small increments in the chemotactic stimulus bring Mac-1 to the cell surface, and this newly mobilized Mac-1 is available for adherence-dependent locomotion with subsequent increases in the concentration of the stimulus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension is associated with abnormal pulmonary arterial contractility and growth. The mechanisms for these abnormalities are largely unknown. To study these processes, we sought to develop an in vitro system. Even though cultured aortic and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (SMCs) have been of considerable value in studying smooth muscle biology, one drawback of this system has been that these cells often lose differentiated properties in an unpredictable manner when they are passaged in culture. In addition, there appear to be significant differences in physiological and pathological responses between the systemic and pulmonary circulations, many of which could be directly related to the smooth muscle. We therefore established a cloned population of rat pulmonary arterial SMCs (PASMCs) that maintain differentiated properties through multiple subcultures. METHODS AND RESULTS PASMCs were obtained initially by enzymatic dissociation from pulmonary arteries of adult Sprague-Dawley rats. From these cells, clones were isolated. The cloned cells retained expression of functional surface receptors for angiotensin II, norepinephrine, and alpha-thrombin and high levels of the smooth muscle isoforms of alpha-actin, myosin heavy chain, myosin regulatory light chain, and alpha-tropomyosin mRNAs even after multiple passages. The cells could also be transfected and processed exogenous transcripts in a smooth muscle-specific fashion. CONCLUSIONS These cloned PASMCs retain many differentiated characteristics and should be valuable for future studies of pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cell biology.

Abstract
Previous studies of myocardial ischemia suggest that complement activation may play a central role in the inflammatory response during reperfusion. Our previous work has demonstrated neutrophil chemotactic activity to be present in reperfusion canine cardiac lymph after myocardial ischemia and infarction. To evaluate the contribution of the complement-dependent anaphylatoxin C5a to this neutrophil chemotactic activity, rabbit antiserum to canine C5a was prepared. At dilutions > 1:500 but < 1:2,000, the antiserum abolished the ability of zymosan-activated dog serum to induce a ruffled, bipolar morphology in isolated neutrophils used as a bioassay of chemotactic stimulation. This antiserum did not affect similar morphological changes in neutrophils exposed to platelet activating factor (10(-7)-10(-6) M) or recombinant human interleukin-8 (10(-9)-10(-8) M); thus, we deemed it functionally specific for canine C5a. In a pattern similar to what we previously reported, cardiac lymph collected before a 1-hour ligation of the left circumflex coronary artery had little ability to alter the morphology of canine neutrophils (shape change index, 11.3 +/- 4.6, mean +/- SEM; n = 7), but by 1 hour of reperfusion, lymph activated neutrophils significantly in five of seven dogs (mean shape change index, 72.6 +/- 17.7; p < 0.01). At 2 hours of reperfusion, neutrophil activation by lymph occurred in six of seven dogs (mean shape change index, 103.1 +/- 22.2). At 3 hours of reperfusion, cardiac lymph of only three of six dogs caused neutrophil activation, and at 4 hours of reperfusion, this activity was evident in lymph from only two of five dogs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Acute respiratory virus infections are often associated with an early influx of neutrophils (PMN) into the airways. Maximal cytoxic injury by PMN depends on tight cell-cell adhesion. Infection of some cell types by respiratory and other viruses has been shown to increase PMN adhesion to these cells by undefined mechanisms. We studied adhesion by human PMN to monolayers of primary (1 degree) human tracheal epithelial cells (TEC) or an immortalized cell line derived from human TEC, 9HTEo-, that had been infected with parainfluenza virus type 2 (PiV2). PMN adhesion to uninfected 1 degree TEC was very low (< 5%), but PMN adhesion to PiV2-infected 1 degree TEC was greatly increased (89 +/- 7%). PMN adhesion to 9HTEo- cells was 47 +/- 6%, but increased, 87 +/- 8%, for PiV2-infected 9HTEo- cells. Surface intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression on 1 degree TEC, as determined by immunofluorescence flow cytometry, was relatively low (23 fluorescence units) but doubled by 24 h after PiV2 infection and tripled by 48 h. The 9HTEo- cells constitutively expressed higher levels of surface ICAM-1 (120 units) which did not increase with PiV2 infection. Treatment of non-PiV2-infected 9HTEo- cells with mAb (R6.5) to ICAM-1 reduced PMN adhesion to these cells from 47 +/- 8 to 23 +/- 5%. Identical mAb treatment of either 1 degree TEC or 9HTEo- cells infected with PiV2 had no significant effect on PMN adhesion. Treatment of the PMN with mAb against CD11a, CD11b, or CD18 markedly reduced PMN adhesion to PiV2-infected 1 degree TEC and 9HTEo- cells. We conclude that PiV2 infection of human TEC causes a marked increase in their adhesive interactions with PMN by inducing increased surface expression of both ICAM-1 and one or more, as yet uncharacterized, non-ICAM-1 adhesion molecules that function as counter-receptors for CD11/CD18 on PMN. These mechanisms of adhesion may play a role in epithelial damage during acute respiratory virus infections.

Treatment of the PMN with mAb against CD11a, CD11b, or CD18 markedly reduced PMN adhesion to PiV2-infected 1 degree TEC and 9HTEo- cells. We conclude that PiV2 infection of human TEC causes a marked increase in their adhesive interactions with PMN by inducing increased surface expression of both ICAM-1 and one or more, as yet uncharacterized, non-ICAM-1 adhesion molecules that function as counter-receptors for CD11/CD18 on PMN. These mechanisms of adhesion may play a role in epithelial damage during acute respiratory virus infections.

Abstract
We have previously shown that cytokines and postischemic cardiac lymph induce expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54) on canine adult cardiac myocytes. ICAM-1 expression allows adherence of activated neutrophils to myocytes that is blocked by anti-CD18 mAb, R15.7, or anti-ICAM-1 mAb, CL18/6. Interleukin 1, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, or interleukin 6-stimulated cardiac myocytes were loaded with 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin, and oxidation to the fluorescent dichlorofluorescein was monitored. Fluorescence and neutrophil/myocyte adherence followed the same time course, and both were blocked by monoclonal antibodies to CD18, CD11b, and ICAM-1, but mAb R7.1, recognizing a functional epitope on CD11a, was not inhibitory. The iron chelator, desferroxamine, and the hydroxyl radical scavenger, dimethylthiourea, did not inhibit neutrophil adherence, but completely inhibited fluorescence. In contrast, the extracellular oxygen radical scavengers superoxide dismutase and catalase, and the extracellular iron chelator, starch-immobilized desferroxamine, did not affect either fluorescence or adherence. Under the experimental conditions used, no superoxide production could be detected in the extracellular medium. Fluorescence microscopy demonstrated that fluorescence began within 5 min after neutrophil adherence to an individual myocyte, and myocyte contracture followed rapidly. Fluorescent intensity was highest initially at the site of myocyte-neutrophil adherence. When only neutrophils were loaded with 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein, fluorescence was observed only in those neutrophils adhering to the cardiac myocytes. Thus, adherence dependent on Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) and ICAM-1 (CD54) activates the neutrophil respiratory burst resulting in a highly compartmented iron-dependent myocyte oxidative injury.

Abstract
Intraocular accumulation of inflammatory neutrophils is an important feature of experimental phacoanaphylactic endophthalmitis (EPE). Increasing evidence suggests that localization of neutrophils to the site of inflammation requires the participation of neutrophil and endothelial adhesion molecules. These studies were undertaken to determine if blocking of adhesion molecules on neutrophils (CD18) or endothelium (ELAM-1) could attenuate EPE in Lewis rats. Treatment of experimental animals with anti-CD18 or anti-ELAM-1 significantly suppressed intraocular neutrophil accumulation, retinal hemorrhage, and vasculitis, and attenuated retinal edema formation by 48% and 70%, respectively. These observations demonstrate that antibodies directed against adhesion molecules on the neutrophil (CD18) or the vascular endothelial cell (ELAM-1) exhibit potent anti-inflammatory effects, resulting in a striking amelioration of injury in EPE in rats.

Abstract
A general scheme for obtaining a fluorescent donor/acceptor peptide substrate via solid-phase synthesis methodology is presented. The key feature of this method is the design of a glutamic acid derivative that has been modified on the carboxyl side chain with a 5-[(2'-aminoethyl)-amino]naphthelenesulfonic acid (EDANS) to create a fluorescent donor moiety that can be incorporated near the C-terminus of the peptide substrate. The corresponding fluorescent acceptor group containing a 4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]azo]benzoic acid (DABCYL) can then be attached to the resin-bound peptide at the N-terminus while all side-chain groups are still fully protected. Substrates for renin and HIV proteinase are synthesized as examples.

Abstract
Intrapulmonary clearance of group B streptococci (GBS) occurred in term rabbits 4 and 8 h after infection; GBS growth was evident in preterm rabbits at 8 h. Bronchoalveolar lavage revealed 17-fold higher numbers of pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAM) in term versus preterm animals immediately after infection, whereas polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMNL) recruitment was 13-fold greater in preterm than term rabbits at 8 h. Anti-CD18 monoclonal antibody R15.7 did not reduce PMNL influx or GBS killing in term animals. R15.7 failed to inhibit PMNL influx but augmented GBS growth in preterm animals. R15.7 significantly impaired GBS phagocytosis by preterm and term PMNL in vitro but had no effect on ingestion of GBS by preterm and term PAM. Thus, GBS infection initiates PMNL recruitment into lungs of preterm rabbits by CD18-independent mechanisms, but phagocytosis of GBS by PMNL is largely CD18-dependent. The poorer outcome of GBS pneumonia in preterm versus term newborns may result from low levels of PAM, thereby mandating recruitment of PMNL as a second phagocytic defense.

Abstract
Inflammation of the human airways in diseases such as chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis with Pseudomonas endobronchial infection, and possibly asthma during late-phase reactions involves a local influx of neutrophils (PMN) that may participate in airway epithelial injury. PMN-mediated cellular injury is most efficient under conditions of PMN-target cell adhesion. PMN express adhesive glycoproteins of the CD11/CD18 family that are counter-receptors for intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), found on various cell types. We proposed that adherence by PMN to human airway epithelial cells via ICAM-1 might be an important mechanism in inflammatory airway diseases. We found that although PMN adhere poorly (less than 5%) to monolayers of human tracheal epithelial cells (TEC) in primary culture, they adhere readily (45 to 50%) to an SV40-immortalized line of human TEC, designated 9HTEo-. We also found 6-fold greater surface expression of ICAM-1 on 9HTEo- compared with primary TEC. Blocking surface ICAM-1 on 9HTEo- cells with specific monoclonal antibody inhibited PMN adherence by about 50%. Thus, ICAM-1 plays a major role in this adherence, although it is possible that other epithelial ligands contribute also. Antibodies to CD11a, CD11b, and CD18 on PMN also inhibited PMN-epithelial adherence. Treatment of primary TEC monolayers with the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 (IL-1) or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) caused a 3- to 4-fold increase in both cell surface ICAM-1 expression and support of PMN adhesion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Medical students' attitudes to the elderly were compared at the start and finish of a 5-week clinical attachment in health care of the elderly at the Christchurch School of Medicine. The study investigated students in their first clinical year (fourth year of their medical course) over five terms using a questionnaire employing a Rosencranz-McNevin semantic differential scale to measure general attitudes to old age and a Likert scale to measure attitudes to medical care. A question was also asked about career preferences. There was significant improvement in attitudes measured by both scales (Rosencranz-McNevin P less than 0.001, Likert P less than 0.001). Students also showed an increase in interest in health care of the elderly as a career choice. When compared with two cohorts of students from Nottingham Medical School, attitudes were significantly better in the Christchurch group at the commencement of the run. Students at both schools showed an improvement in knowledge but this was more marked for Christchurch students.

Abstract
Seven eyes had subretinal fibrosis after grid laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema. The fibrosis caused persistent loss in visual acuity, and in six of the seven eyes, was not associated with detectable laser-induced Bruch's membrane rupture or subretinal hemorrhage. Choroidal neovascularization was detected in only one patient, who was notably younger (27 years) than the median age of 70 years in this series. The median preoperative visual acuity was 20/80 (range, 20/40 to 20/400); the median postoperative visual acuity was 20/400 (range, 20/80 to counting fingers). The subretinal fibrosis was detected at a median of three months (range, 14 days to 4 1/2 months) after laser therapy. In one of five bilaterally treated patients (20%), subretinal fibrosis developed in both eyes. Subretinal fibrosis may be caused by undetected choroidal neovascularization or by excessive proliferation after stimulation of an aged retinal pigment epithelium. Subretinal fibrosis may be a potential cause of loss in visual acuity after laser treatment for diabetic macular edema.

Abstract
The protease from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) was chemically synthesized by automated solid-phase technology as an NH2-terminally extended derivative, capped with biotin. Biotin-linker-(SIV protease (1-99)): the linker segment, Gly-Gly-Asp-Arg-Gly-Phe-Ala-Ala, corresponds to the amino acid sequence preceding that of the protease in the SIV gag/pol precursor polyprotein. Accordingly, the Ala-Pro bond joining the octapeptide linker to the protease constitutes a site naturally cleaved by the protease during viral maturation. This strategy for synthesis was designed to facilitate purification of the biotinylated protein derivative from a complex mixture of reaction products by avidin/agarose-affinity chromatography and to provide the means for autocatalytic removal of the biotin-linker segment. As anticipated, folding of the full-length construct leads to activation of the enzyme and excision of the desired 99-residue SIV protease (overall yield, approximately). The specificity of the synthetic SIV protease toward a number of well characterized protein substrates was the same as observed for the nearly identical enzyme from human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2 protease) and distinct from that of the more disparate HIV-1 protease. The same functional ordering with respect to the human retroviral proteases was reflected in Ki values observed with a number of protease inhibitors. Thus, the folded synthetic SIV protease shows patterns of specificity and susceptibility to inhibition that are in accord with what would be expected based upon its degree of structural similarity to proteases from HIV-1 and HIV-2.
