  • A 23-kDa molecular mass of antioxidant protein was purified from human liver. This protein exhibited the preventive effect against the inactivation of glutamine synthetase by a metal-catalyzed oxidation system. This antioxidant activity was supported by a thiol-reducing equivalent such as dithiothreitol in a similar manner to that of the 25-kDa thiol-specific antioxidant protein (TSA) from human red blood cells (HR). However, a thioredoxin-linked peroxidase activity of thiol-specific antioxidant protein of human liver (HLTSA) (0.91 ${\mu}mol/min/nmol$ of HLTSA) was much lower than that of thiol-specific antioxidant protein of human red blood cells (HRTSA) (16.4 ${\mu}mol/min/nmol$ of HRTSA). This HLTSA is also immnologically distinct from HRTSA Amino acid sequences of the three tryptic peptides (P1, P2, P3) of HLTSA were found to be completely homologous to segments of the known Mer5-like protein, which belongs to the known TSA family.

  • 지렁이(Earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris)로부터 thiol-specific antioxidant activity(TSA)를 나타내는 향산화 단백을 분리정제 하였다. 이 향산화 단백은 환원제로 thiol성분에 의해 유지되는 비효소적 금속 촉매 산화계 (MCO, $Fe^{3+}$, DTT 또는 2-mercatoethanol ; Thiol- MCO system)에 의하여 Glutamine Synthetase의 불활성을 억제하지만 아스코르브산과 같은 nonthiol 환원제를 가진 효소적 금속 촉매 산화계 (MCO, $Fe^{3+}$, ascorbate ; nonthiol- MCO system)에서는 Glutamine Synthetase의 불활성을 방어하지 못하였다. 정제된 지렁이 TSA 단백질은 SAS-PAGE에 의해 51-kDa임을 밝혔고, 기존에 알려진 TSA protein과 분자량이 다른 TSA Family로써 활성 산소종에 의한 산화적 손상을 방어하는 향산화 효소로써의 중요한 생화학적 역할을 수행함을 제시하였다.

  • 고염에서 자라는 원시 박테리아인 Halococcus agglomeratus에서 Thiol-specific antioxidant 활성을 보이는 분자량이 22-kDa인 향산화 단백질을 순수 분리 정제하여 향산화 활성의 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 진핵 세포의 Thiol-specific antioxidant protein (TSA of TPx)과 유사한 활성을 갖는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 정제된 Thiol-specific antioxidant protein 은 환원제로 thiol 성분을 갖는 비효소적 금속 촉매 산화계( $Fe^{3+}$, $O^2$, DTT 또는 2-mercatoethanol : thiol- MCO system)에 의하여 Glutamine Synthetase (GS)의 불활성화를 방어하고 Ascorbate 같은 nonthiol 성환원제를 갖는 금속 촉매 산화계 ( $Fe^{3+}$, $O^2$, Ascorbatenol: nonthiol- MCO system)에 의해서는 GS의 불활성화를 방어하지 못하였다. 이것은 환원형 thiol성분이 항산화 단백질의 항산화 활성에 전자 공여체로 요구되어 지기 때문이라고 판단된다. 이 단백질은 다른 TPx와는 다르게 100%의 활성을 나타내려면 NaCl의 농도가 500mM이상이 되어야 한다. 이상의 결과는 원시 박테리아에도 TPx가 존재하여 활성 산소종을 제거하는 생화학적 역할을 수행함을 시사하고 있다.

  • Recent studies indicate that hydrogen peroxide (H$_2$O$_2$), which is one of the reactive oxygen species involved in the oxidative stress, is an intracellular secondary messenger in the signal transduction. A novel family of thiol specific antioxidant (TSA) enzymes with a peroxidase activity shows no sequence homology to previously known antioxidant enzymes.(omitted)

  • A soluble protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae specifically provides protection against a thiolcontaining oxidation system but not against an oxidation system without thiol. This 25-kDa protein was thus named thiol-dependent protector protein (TPP). The role of TPP in the cellular defense against oxidative stress was investigated in Escherichia coli containing an expression vector with a yeast genomic DNA fragment that encodes TPP (strain YP) and a mutant in which the catalytically essential amino acid in the active site of TPP (Cys-47) has been replaced with alanine by site-directed mutagenesis (strain YPC47A). There was a distinct difference between these two strains in regard to viability, modulation of activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase, and the oxidative damage of DNA upon exposure to menadione. These results suggest that TPP may play a direct role in the cellular defense against oxidative stress by functioning as an antioxidant protein.

  • Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) possess protective activity against oxygen radicals generated by thiol-catalyzed oxidative systems. We already reported the genomic structure and its expression of mouse Prx Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and 1-Cys Prx. However, the Prx Ⅲ has not been determined. That was initially defined transiently expressed gene, mouse MER5, of murine erythroleukaemia cell differentiation. In addition, this protein was recently redefined a member of the thiol-specific antioxidant gene family. (omitted)

  • To study the effect of iron on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, whole-cell proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were extracted and subjected to two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE), and differentially expressed proteins were identified. The proteins separated were further identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry and were compared with a protein database. Of more than 300 spots separated by molecular weight and isoelectric points, 27 differentially expressed spots were identified. Ten proteins were found to be differentially expressed at high iron concentration. Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), YDR533C hypothetical protein, superoxide dismutase (SOD), 60 kDa heat-shock protein (HSP60), pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit 1 (PDB1), and old yellow enzyme 2 (OYE2) were upregulated, whereas thiol-specific antioxidant (TSA), regulatory particle non-ATPase subunit 8 (RPN8), thiol-specific peroxiredoxin 1 (AHP1), and fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate adolase (FBA) were downregulated by iron. Based on the result, we propose that SOD upregulated by iron would protect the yeast from oxidative stress by iron, and that TSA downregulated by iron would render cells hypersensitive to oxidative stress.

  • 티올특이성 산화환원 단백질인 peroxiredoxin (thiolspecific peroxiredoxin, Prx) 은 거의 모든 생명체에 존재하며, reactive oxgen species (ROS)을 제거하는 역할을 수행한다. 전자현미경/image processing을 이용하여 세포의 방어기작에 중요한 기능을 수행하는 Prx의 구조를 분석하였다. Yeast-Prx는 크게 세 가지의 다른 형태 즉, 구 형태, ring 형태의 구조와 비 규칙적인 적은 입자로 구성되어 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 산화/환원 상태에서의 구조적 변화를 관찰하기위해 DTT와 $H_2O_2$를 처리 후 전자현미경을 관찰 하였다. 환원상태의(DTT 처리 후) yeast-Prx는 많은 decamer 구조를 보여주는 반면, 산화상태에서는 ($H_2O_2$ 처리 후) dimer나 구 형태의 구조를 보여 주고 있다. 또한 dimeric subunit간의 ionic interaction이 yeast-Prx의 oligomerization에 중요한 인자임을 확인하였다.

  • Neuroprotective strategies have been appeared to be effective in a variety of stroke models. One of the major focuses has been related to the activities of estrogen. $17\beta$-estradiol valerate(EV) has been reported to exert neuroprotective effects when administered before an ischemic insult. The purpose of this study was to determine whether EV can protect against brain injury via estrogen receptor. Chronic and acute pretreatment can reduce the ischemic damage of focal cerebral ischemia in OVX rat, indicating that EV may be a new therapeutic class of drugs to prevent neuronal damage associated with cerebral ischemia. RNAs were extracted from the hippocampus of ovariectomized female rat with or without EV. Differential gene expression profiles were revealed(Bone morphogenetic protein type 1A receptor, Protein disulphide isomerase, cytochrome bc-1 complex core P, thiol-specific antioxidant protein). RT-PCR and in situ hybridization were used to validate the relative expression pattern obtained by the cDNA array. This Study was supported by the Korea Science and Engineering Foundation(KOSEF) through the Biohealth Products Research Center(BPRC), Inje University, Korea
