First report of Przhevalskiana silenus derived recombinant hypodermin C based indirect ELISA for serodiagnosis of goat warble fly myiasis. Sci Rep 2022; 12:13440. [PMID: 35927296 PMCID: PMC9352896 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-17760-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Goat warble fly infestation (GWFI) is a subcutaneous myiasis caused by larvae of Przhevalskiana silenus, an insect belonging to the order Diptera. The diagnosis of GWFI is challenging in the early larval instars (L1 and L2) as they are occult under the skin and hair coat causing prolonged economic loss in form of meat and hide damage. This necessitates early diagnosis for disease control at herd level and its prophylactic management to prevent economic losses. Hypodermins, a class of serine proteases from Hypoderminae subfamily have been used as serodiagnostic antigens for the past four decades for diagnosis of warble fly myiasis. In this study,the immunodominant antigen Hypodermin C (HyC) from P. silenus has been recombinantly expressed in E. coli and immunogenic characterisation of expressed protein was done. The protein shows hallmark residues in conserved cysteine and catalytic triad typical of serine proteases along with similar profile of immunoreactivity towards Hypoderminae infestation. The present study reports an optimised indirect-ELISA based on recombinant HyC derived from P. silenus for early diagnosis of GWFI. The optimised indirect ELISA provides a sensitive and specific immunodiagnostic for mass surveillance of the GWFI with diagnostic specificity and sensitivity of 96% and 100%, respectively and not showing any cross reactivity against other important parasitic and bacterial diseases of goats. This study presents the first report of indirect ELISA based on recombinant Hypodermin C antigen derived from P. silenus for the serosurveillance of goat warble fly disease.

Abstract
Talisin is a storage protein from Talisia esculenta seeds that presents lectin-like and peptidase inhibitor properties. These characteristics suggest that talisin plays a role in the plant defense process, making it a multifunctional protein. This work aimed to investigate the effects of chronic intake of talisin on fifth instar larvae of Spodoptera frugiperda, considered the main insect pest of maize and the cause of substantial economic losses in several other crops. The chronic intake of talisin presented antinutritional effects on the larvae, reducing their weight and prolonging the total development time of the insects. In addition, talisin-fed larvae also showed a significant reduction in the activity of trypsin-like enzymes. Midgut histology analysis of talisin-fed larvae showed alterations in the intestinal epithelium and rupture of the peritrophic membrane, possibly causing an increase of aminopeptidase activity in the midgut lumen. Talisin also proved to be resistant to degradation by the digestive enzymes of S. frugiperda. The transcription profile of trypsin, chymotrypsin and aminopeptidase genes was also analyzed through qPCR technique. Talisin intake resulted in differential expression of at least two genes from each of these classes of enzymes. Molecular docking studies indicated a higher affinity of talisin for the less expressed enzymes.

Abstract
Adaptation to vertebrate blood feeding includes development of a salivary "magic potion" that can disarm host hemostasis and inflammatory reactions. Within the lower Diptera, a vertebrate blood-sucking mode evolved in the Psychodidae (sand flies), Culicidae (mosquitoes), Ceratopogonidae (biting midges), Simuliidae (black flies), and the frog-feeding Corethrellidae. Sialotranscriptome analyses from several species of mosquitoes and sand flies and from one biting midge indicate divergence in the evolution of the blood-sucking salivary potion, manifested in the finding of many unique proteins within each insect family, and even genus. Gene duplication and divergence events are highly prevalent, possibly driven by vertebrate host immune pressure. Within this framework, we describe the sialome (from Greek sialo, saliva) of the black fly Simulium vittatum and discuss the findings within the context of the protein families found in other blood-sucking Diptera. Sequences and results of Blast searches against several protein family databases are given in Supplemental Tables S1 and S2, which can be obtained from http://exon.niaid.nih.gov/transcriptome/S_vittatum/T1/SV-tb1.zip and http://exon.niaid.nih.gov/transcriptome/S_vittatum/T2/SV-tb2.zip .

Abstract
The high-resolution solution structure of the catalytic fragment of human collagenase-3 (MMP-13) complexed with a sulfonamide derivative of a hydroxamic acid compound (WAY-151693) has been determined by multidimensional heteronuclear NMR. A total of 30 structures were calculated for residues 7-164 by means of hybrid distance geometry-simulated annealing using a total of 3280 experimental NMR restraints. The atomic rms distribution about the mean coordinate positions for the 30 structures is 0.43(+/-0.05) A for the backbone atoms, 0.80(+/-0.09) A for all atoms, and 0.47(+/-0.04) A for all atoms excluding disordered side-chains. The overall structure of MMP-13 is composed of a beta-sheet consisting of five beta-strands in a mixed parallel and anti-parallel arrangement and three alpha-helices where its overall fold is consistent with previously solved MMP structures. A comparison of the NMR structure of MMP-13 with the published 1.6 A resolution X-ray structure indicates that the major differences between the structures is associated with loop dynamics and crystal-packing interactions. The side-chains of some active-site residues for the NMR and X-ray structures of MMP-13 adopt distinct conformations. This is attributed to the presence of unique inhibitors in the two structures that encounter distinct interactions with MMP-13. The major structural difference observed between the MMP-13 and MMP-1 NMR structures is the relative size and shape of the S1' pocket where this pocket is significantly longer for MMP-13, nearly reaching the surface of the protein. Additionally, MMP-1 and MMP-13 exhibit different dynamic properties for the active-site loop and the structural Zn-binding region. The inhibitor WAY-151693 is well defined in the MMP-13 active-site based on a total of 52 distance restraints. The binding motif of WAY-151693 in the MMP-13 complex is consistent with our previously reported MMP-1:CGS-27023A NMR structure and is similar to the MMP-13: RS-130830 X-ray structure.

Abstract
Methods for the prediction of protein function from structure are of growing importance in the age of structural genomics. Here, we focus on the problem of identifying sites of potential serine protease inhibitor interactions on the surface of proteins of known structure. Given that there is no sequence conservation within canonical loops from different inhibitor families, we first compare representative loops to all fragments of equal length among proteins of known structure by calculating main-chain RMS deviation. Fragments with RMS deviation below a certain threshold (hits) are removed if residues have solvent accessibilities appreciably lower than those observed in the search structure. These remaining hits are further filtered to remove those occurring largely within secondary structure elements. Likely functional significance is restricted further by considering only extracellular protein domains. By comparing different canonical loop structures to the protein structure database, we show that the method is able to detect previously known inhibitors. In addition, we discuss potentially new canonical loop structures found in secreted hydrolases, toxins, viral proteins, cytokines and other proteins. We discuss the possible functional significance of several of the examples found, and comment on implications for the prediction of function from protein 3D structure.

Abstract
The solution structure of the catalytic fragment of human fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1) complexed with a sulfonamide derivative of a hydroxamic acid compound (CGS-27023A) has been determined using two-dimensional and three-dimensional heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. The solution structure of the complex was calculated by means of hybrid distance geometry-simulated annealing using a combination of experimental NMR restraints obtained from the previous refinement of the inhibitor-free MMP-1 (1) and recent restraints for the MMP-1:CGS-27023A complex. The hydroxamic acid moiety of CGS-27023A was found to chelate to the "right" of the catalytic zinc where the p-methoxyphenyl sits in the S1' active-site pocket, the isopropyl group is in contact with H83 and N80, and the pyridine ring is solvent exposed. The sulfonyl oxygens are in hydrogen-bonding distance to the backbone NHs of L81 and A82. This is similar to the conformation determined by NMR of the inhibitor bound to stromelysin (2, 3). A total of 48 distance restraints were observed between MMP-1 and CGS-27023A from 3D 13C-edited/12C-filtered NOESY and 3D 15N-edited NOESY experiments. An additional 18 intramolecular restraints were observed for CGS-27023A from a 2D 12C-filtered NOESY experiment. A minimal set of NMR experiments in combination with the free MMP-1 assignments were used to assign the MMP-1 (1)H, 13C, and 15N resonances in the MMP-1:CGS-27023A complex. The assignments of CGS-27023A in the complex were obtained from 2D 12C-filtered NOESY and 2D 12C-filtered TOCSY experiments.

Abstract
The high-resolution solution structure of the inhibitor-free catalytic fragment of human fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1), a protein of 18.7 kDa, which is a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family, has been determined using three-dimensional heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. A total of 30 structures were calculated by means of hybrid distance geometry-simulated annealing using a total of 3333 experimental NMR restraints, consisting of 2409 approximate interproton distance restraints, 84 distance restraints for 42 backbone hydrogen bonds, 426 torsion angle restraints, 125 3JNH alpha restraints, 153 C alpha restraints, and 136 C beta restraints. The atomic rms distribution about the mean coordinate positions for the 30 structures for residues 7-137 and 145-163 is 0.42 +/- 0.04 A for the backbone atoms, 0.80 +/- 0.04 A for all atoms, and 0.50 +/- 0.03 A for all atoms excluding disordered side chains. The overall structure of MMP-1 is composed of a beta-sheet consisting of five beta-strands in a mixed parallel and anti-parallel arrangement and three alpha-helices. A best-fit superposition of the NMR structure of inhibitor-free MMP-1 with the 1.56 A resolution X-ray structure by Spurlino et al. [Spurlino, J. C., Smallwood, A. M., Carlton, D. D., Banks, T. M., Vavra, K. J., Johnson, J. S., Cook, E. R., Falvo, J., and Wahl, R. C., et al. (1994) Proteins: Struct., Funct., Genet. 19, 98-109] complexed with a hydroxamate inhibitor yields a backbone atomic rms difference of 1.22 A. The majority of differences between the NMR and X-ray structure occur in the vicinity of the active site for MMP-1. This includes an increase in mobility for residues 138-144 and a displacement for the Ca(2+)-loop (residues 74-80). Distinct differences were observed for side-chain torsion angles, in particular, the chi 1 for N80 is -60 degrees in the NMR structure compared to 180 degrees in the X-ray. This results in the side chain of N80 occupying and partially blocking access to the active site of MMP-1.

Abstract
The effects of various anions on decreasing the solubility of acidic Hypoderma lineatum collagenase at pH 7.2 and 18 degrees C were qualitatively defined by replacing the crystallizing agent of known crystallization conditions by various ammonium salts. The solubility curves measured in the presence of the sulfate, phosphate, citrate, and chloride ammonium salts gave the following ranking of anions: HPO4(2-)/H2PO4- > SO4(2-) > citrate 3-/citrate2- >> Cl-. This order is in agreement with the Hofmeister series. In a previous study on the solubility at pH 4.5 of lysozyme, a basic protein, the effectiveness of anions in decreasing the solubility was found to be in the reverse order. This suggests that the effectiveness of anions in the crystallization of proteins is dependent on the net charge of the protein, i.e., depending on whether a basic protein is crystallized at acidic pH or an acidic protein at basic pH.
