Recognition and characterization of TGF-β receptor interacting protein 1 (TRIP-1) containing WD40 repeats from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Clonorchis sinensis</Emphasis> by bioinformatics,cloning, and expression in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Escherichia coli</Emphasis>

A cDNA clone encoding a homologue of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) receptor interacting protein 1 (TRIP-1) was recognized and isolated from full-length cDNA plasmid library of Clonorchis sinensis adult. TRIP-1 is a bifunctional molecule in all eukaryote, which modulates the signaling pathway of TGF-beta as a phosphorylation substrate of TGF-beta type II receptor kinase and controls ribosome assembly and mRNA translation as p36 subunit of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3. The structural and immunological characteristics of TRIP-1 from C. sinensis (CsTRIP-1) were analyzed by bioinformatics. The complete coding sequence was expressed in Escherichia coli, and the purified recombinant product was obtained. Western blotting with mixed sera from clonorchiasis patients was positive, whereas the normal was negative, suggesting it is a candidate of diagnostic antigen for clonorchiasis. CsTRIP-1 will aid to explore interaction between host and the parasite as well as the mechanism by which TGF-beta controls the development of C. sinensis and participates in the pathogenesis.     

Molecular cloning and immunological characterization of phosphoglycerate kinase from Clonorchis sinensis

The parasite Clonorchis sinensis was determined to utilize a large amount of external glucose to carry its energy metabolism. Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), a glycolytic enzyme, found in many parasites, has been identified as one of the candidate molecules distinguished from human counterparts for vaccine and drug developments. A cDNA clone purified by screening a C. sinensis cDNA library using a heterologous cDNA probe encoded a putative peptide of 415 amino acids with over 60% identities with PGKs from a number of animals. The putative peptides revealed domains corresponding to 12 beta-sheets and inner loops forming a substrate-binding cleft of animal PGKs. The gene product was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and showed a PGK-like enzyme activity. A polyclonal antibody raised against the recombinant C. sinensis PGK was specific to native C. sinensis PGK and localized it to the muscular tissue and tegument of the adult flukes. The C. sinensis PGK elicited antibodies in C. sinensis-infected rabbits. Therefore, it is proposed that C. sinensis PGK could be used as an immunoreagent in the serodiagnosis for clonorchiasis.     

Molecular cloning and characterization of a mu-class glutathione S-transferase from Clonorchis sinensis

In biliary passages, Clonorchis sinensis causes epithelial hyperplasia and is assumed to promote carcinogenesis. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is an antioxidant enzyme involved in phase II defense in trematodes. A clone (pcsGSTM1) encoding a GST was identified by screening a C. sinensis cDNA library with a PCR-synthesized cDNA probe. The predicted amino acid sequence encoded by pcsGSTM1 cDNA had a high degree of sequence identity and folding topology similar to the mu-class GSTs. The estimated molecular mass of the protein, 26 kDa, was consistent with an expression by pcsGSTM1 cDNA. The bacterially expressed recombinant csGSTM1 protein possessed an enzymatic GST activity and conjugated GSH to reactive carbonyls of lipid peroxidation. The recombinant csGSTM1 protein did not share antigenic epitope(s) with GSTs of Fasciola hepatica, Paragonimus westermani and Schistosoma japonicum. The csGSTM1 was identified to a mu-class GST in C. sinensis.     

Expression of a Trypanosoma brucei brucei variant antigen in Escherichia coli

A cDNA library derived from antigenically homogeneous bloodstream stage Trypanosoma brucei brucei was screened with an antiserum directed against the variant surface antigen (VSA) using an enzyme-linked filter immunoassay. Several recombinant clones were detected and the clone giving the most intense reaction was further analyzed. It contained a VSA-specific cDNA insert and synthesized a protein of the expected molecular weight bearing VSA determinants. The nucleotide sequence of the insert was determined and shown to have the unusual codon bias characteristic of T. brucei VSAs, frequently employing codons specifying tRNAs rare in Escherichia coli. These results indicate that a codon bias very different from that of E. coli does not preclude the expression of a cloned sequence to detectable levels in this heterologous host.
