Identification of the human analogue of a regulator that induces differentiation in murine leukaemic cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
We have recently purified murine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), a regulatory glycoprotein which stimulates granulocyte colony formation from committed murine precursor cells in semi-solid agar cultures. G-CSF is one of a family of colony-stimulating factors that regulate the growth and differentiation of granulocytes and macrophages. While the other murine CSFs (granulocyte-macrophage (GM)-CSF, macrophage (M)-CSF and multi-CSF) show little or no differentiation-inducing activity on murine myelomonocytic leukaemia cell lines, G-CSF (or MGI-2(6)) is able to induce the production of terminally differentiated cells from WEHI-3B and other myeloid leukaemia cell lines. More importantly, G-CSF-containing materials suppress the self-renewal of myeloid leukaemia stem cells in vitro and the leukaemogenicity of treated myeloid leukaemic cells in vivo. It is important to identify the human analogue of murine G-CSF so that its effectiveness on human myeloid leukaemia cells can be assessed. Here we show that an analogue of G-CSF does exist among the CSFs produced by human cells and that the murine and human molecules show almost complete biological and receptor-binding cross-reactivities to normal and leukaemic murine or human cells. The human G-CSF analogue is identified as a species of CSF that we have previously described as CSF-beta. 相似文献

Thiamine pyrophosphate 1 is an essential cofactor in all living systems. Its biosynthesis involves the separate syntheses of the pyrimidine 2 and thiazole 3 precursors, which are then coupled. Two biosynthetic routes to the thiamine thiazole have been identified. In prokaryotes, five enzymes act on three substrates to produce the thiazole via a complex oxidative condensation reaction, the mechanistic details of which are now well established. In contrast, only one gene product is involved in thiazole biosynthesis in eukaryotes (THI4p in Saccharomyces cerevisiae). Here we report the preparation of fully active recombinant wild-type THI4p, the identification of an iron-dependent sulphide transfer reaction from a conserved cysteine residue of the protein to a reaction intermediate and the demonstration that THI4p is a suicide enzyme undergoing only a single turnover. 相似文献

To make full use of research data, the bioscience community needs to adopt technologies and reward mechanisms that support interoperability and promote the growth of an open 'data commoning' culture. Here we describe the prerequisites for data commoning and present an established and growing ecosystem of solutions using the shared 'Investigation-Study-Assay' framework to support that vision. 相似文献
