A single membrane-embedded negative charge is critical for recognizing positively charged drugs by the Escherichia coli multidrug resistance protein MdfA. (1/1806)

The nature of the broad substrate specificity phenomenon, as manifested by multidrug resistance proteins, is not yet understood. In the Escherichia coli multidrug transporter, MdfA, the hydrophobicity profile and PhoA fusion analysis have so far identified only one membrane-embedded charged amino acid residue (E26). In order to determine whether this negatively charged residue may play a role in multidrug recognition, we evaluated the expression and function of MdfA constructs mutated at this position. Replacing E26 with the positively charged residue lysine abolished the multidrug resistance activity against positively charged drugs, but retained chloramphenicol efflux and resistance. In contrast, when the negative charge was preserved in a mutant with aspartate instead of E26, chloramphenicol recognition and transport were drastically inhibited; however, the mutant exhibited almost wild-type multidrug resistance activity against lipophilic cations. These results suggest that although the negative charge at position 26 is not essential for active transport, it dictates the multidrug resistance character of MdfA. We show that such a negative charge is also found in other drug resistance transporters, and its possible significance regarding multidrug resistance is discussed.  (+info)

Comparison of the backbone dynamics of the apo- and holo-carboxy-terminal domain of the biotin carboxyl carrier subunit of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase. (2/1806)

The biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) is a subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, a biotin-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the first committed step of fatty acid biosynthesis. In its functional cycle, this protein engages in heterologous protein-protein interactions with three distinct partners, depending on its state of post-translational modification. Apo-BCCP interacts specifically with the biotin holoenzyme synthetase, BirA, which results in the post-translational attachment of biotin to a single lysine residue on BCCP. Holo-BCCP then interacts with the biotin carboxylase subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which leads to the addition of the carboxylate group of bicarbonate to biotin. Finally, the carboxy-biotinylated form of BCCP interacts with transcarboxylase in the transfer of the carboxylate to acetyl-CoA to form malonyl-CoA. The determinants of protein-protein interaction specificity in this system are unknown. The NMR solution structure of the unbiotinylated form of an 87 residue C-terminal domain fragment (residue 70-156) of BCCP (holoBCCP87) and the crystal structure of the biotinylated form of a C-terminal fragment (residue 77-156) of BCCP from Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase have previously been determined. Comparative analysis of these structures provided evidence for small, localized conformational changes in the biotin-binding region upon biotinylation of the protein. These structural changes may be important for regulating specific protein-protein interactions. Since the dynamic properties of proteins are correlated with local structural environments, we have determined the relaxation parameters of the backbone 15N nuclear spins of holoBCCP87, and compared these with the data obtained for the apo protein. The results indicate that upon biotinylation, the inherent mobility of the biotin-binding region and the protruding thumb, with which the biotin group interacts in the holo protein, are significantly reduced.  (+info)

Streptavidin facilitates internalization and pulmonary targeting of an anti-endothelial cell antibody (platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1): a strategy for vascular immunotargeting of drugs. (3/1806)

Conjugation of drugs with antibodies to surface endothelial antigens is a potential strategy for drug delivery to endothelium. We studied antibodies to platelet-endothelial adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1, a stably expressed endothelial antigen) as carriers for vascular immunotargeting. Although 125I-labeled anti-PECAM bound to endothelial cells in culture, the antibody was poorly internalized by the cells and accumulated poorly after intravenous administration in mice and rats. However, conjugation of biotinylated anti-PECAM (b-anti-PECAM) with streptavidin (SA) markedly stimulated uptake and internalization of anti-PECAM by endothelial cells and by cells expressing PECAM. In addition, conjugation with streptavidin markedly stimulated uptake of 125I-labeled b-anti-PECAM in perfused rat lungs and in the lungs of intact animals after either intravenous or intraarterial injection. The antioxidant enzyme catalase conjugated with b-anti-PECAM/SA bound to endothelial cells in culture, entered the cells, escaped intracellular degradation, and protected the cells against H2O2-induced injury. Anti-PECAM/SA/125I-catalase accumulated in the lungs after intravenous injection or in the perfused rat lungs and protected these lungs against H2O2-induced injury. Thus, modification of a poor carrier antibody with biotin and SA provides an approach for facilitation of antibody-mediated drug targeting. Anti-PECAM/SA is a promising candidate for vascular immunotargeting of bioactive drugs.  (+info)

Molecular biology of biotin attachment to proteins. (4/1806)

Enzymatic attachment of biotin to proteins requires the interaction of a distinct domain of the acceptor protein (the "biotin domain") with the enzyme, biotin protein ligase, that catalyzes this essential and rare post-translational modification. Both biotin domains and biotin protein ligases are very strongly conserved throughout biology. This review concerns the protein structures and mechanisms involved in the covalent attachment of biotin to proteins.  (+info)

Human biotinidase isn't just for recycling biotin. (5/1806)

For years, the major role of biotin has been as the coenzyme for four carboxylases in humans. Although there has been evidence that biotin might have other functions, none has been firmly established. The discovery that human serum biotinidase has biotinyl-transferase activity, in addition to biotinidase hydrolase activity, presents new possibilities for the role of biotinidase in biotin metabolism. Specific transfer of biotin to histones by biotinidase provides a possible explanation for why biotin is found in the nucleus and the nature of its role in the regulation of protein transcription. Future studies will help to determine the functions of biotinidase in biotin metabolism and in disease states.  (+info)

Treatment of mouse oocytes with PI-PLC releases 70-kDa (pI 5) and 35- to 45-kDa (pI 5.5) protein clusters from the egg surface and inhibits sperm-oolemma binding and fusion. (6/1806)

The effect of phosphatidyinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) on mouse sperm-egg interaction was investigated in this study to determine if glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins are involved in mammalian fertilization. When both sperm and zona-intact oocytes were pretreated with a highly purified preparation of PI-PLC and coincubated, there was no significant effect on sperm-zona pellucida binding; however, fertilization was reduced from 59.6% (control group) to 2.8% (treatment group). A similar reduction in fertilization rates was found when zona-intact oocytes were treated with PI-PLC and washed prior to incubation with untreated sperm. The effect of PI-PLC on sperm binding and fusion with zona-free oocytes was then investigated. Treatment of sperm with PI-PLC had no significant effect on sperm-egg binding or fusion. However, treatment of eggs with PI-PLC significantly reduced sperm-egg binding and fusion from 6.2 bound and 2.1 fused sperm per egg in the control group to 2.1 bound and 0.02 fused sperm per egg in the treatment group. This decrease in sperm-egg binding and fusion depended on the dose of PI-PLC employed, with a maximal inhibitory effect on binding and fusion at 5 and 1 U/ml, respectively. PI-PLC-treated oocytes could be artificially activated by calcium ionophore, demonstrating that the oocytes were functionally viable following treatment. Furthermore, treatment of oocytes with PI-PLC did not reduce the immunoreactivity of the non-GPI-anchored egg surface integrin, alpha6beta1. Taken together, these observations support the hypothesis that PI-PLC affects fertilization by specifically releasing GPI-anchored proteins from the oolemma. In order to identify the oolemmal GPI-anchored proteins involved in fertilization, egg surface proteins were labeled with sulfo-NHS biotin, treated with PI-PLC, and analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by avidin blotting. A prominent high-molecular-weight protein cluster (approximately 70 kDa, pI 5) and a lower molecular weight (approximately 35-45 kDa, pI 5.5) protein cluster were released from the oolemmal surface as a result of PI-PLC treatment. It is likely that these GPI-anchored egg surface proteins are required for sperm-egg binding and fusion.  (+info)

Critical relationship between glycosylation of recombinant lutropin receptor ectodomain and its secretion from baculovirus-infected insect cells. (7/1806)

The lutropin receptor ectodomain overexpressed under the control of the powerful polyhedrin promoter in baculovirus-infected Sf9 insect cells, is mainly found in an inactive, intracellularly-aggregated form. It is secreted in an active form under the control of the P10 promoter, a somewhat weaker and earlier promoter, at the price of a lower production. The apparent molecular masses of the two species encoded by the same cDNA are 48 kDa and 60-68 kDa, respectively. The relationship between the extent and type of glycosylation and the extracellular targeting for the recombinant lutropin receptor ectodomains was investigated precisely with endoglycosidases, lectins of various specificities, and a glycosylation inhibitor, and tested with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. The results indicate that the strong polyhedrin promoter probably overwhelms the processing capacity of the ER in Sf9 cells, so that only a high-mannose precursor is expressed in large amounts. Only a minute amount of protein is secreted, which has been processed by Sf9 exoglycosidases/glycosyltransferases and bears complex/hybrid oligosaccharides. The weaker P10 promoter allows secretion of a mature and active receptor ectodomain, bearing complex glycosylation. An important O-linked glycosylation is also added post-translationally on this species. In particular, beta-galactose and sialic acid residues were specifically detected in the secreted species, evidence of the induction of the corresponding glycosyltransferases or of their genes. These results suggest that Sf9 cells should eventually be engineered with chaperones and glycosyltransferases in order to improve the production of demanding glycoproteins such as the porcine lutropin ectodomain, so as to open the way to resolution of the three-dimensional structures of these receptors.  (+info)

Characterization of the internalization pathways for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. (8/1806)

Mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel give rise to the most common lethal genetic disease of Caucasian populations, CF. Although the function of CFTR is primarily related to the regulation of apical membrane chloride permeability, biochemical, immunocytochemical, and functional studies indicate that CFTR is also present in endosomal and trans Golgi compartments. The molecular pathways by which CFTR is internalized into intracellular compartments are not fully understood. To define the pathways for CFTR internalization, we investigated the association of CFTR with two specialized domains of the plasma membrane, clathrin-coated pits and caveolae. Internalization of CFTR was monitored after cell surface biotinylation and quantitation of cell surface CFTR levels after elution of cell lysates from a monomeric avidin column. Cell surface levels of CFTR were determined after disruption of caveolae or clathrin-coated vesicle formation. Biochemical assays revealed that disrupting the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles inhibited the internalization of CFTR from the plasma membrane, resulting in a threefold increase in the steady-state levels of cell surface CFTR. In contrast, the levels of cell surface CFTR after disruption of caveolae were not different from those in control cells. In addition, although our studies show the presence of caveolin at the apical membrane domain of human airway epithelial cells, we were unable to detect CFTR in purified caveolae. These results suggest that CFTR is constitutively internalized from the apical plasma membrane via clathrin-coated pits and that CFTR is excluded from caveolae.  (+info)

Previous studies have indicated an intimate linkage between gap junction and adherens junction formation. It was suggested this could reflect the close membrane-membrane apposition required for junction formation. In NIH3T3 cells, we observed the colocalization of connexin43 (Cx43alpha1) gap junction protein with N-cadherin, p120, and other N-cadherin-associated proteins at regions of cell-cell contact. We also found that Cx43alpha1, N-cadherin, and N-cadherin-associated proteins were coimmunoprecipitated by antibodies to either Cx43alpha1, N-cadherin, or various N-cadherin-associated proteins. These findings suggest that Cx43alpha1 and N-cadherin are coassembled in a multiprotein complex containing various N-cadherin-associated proteins. Studies using siRNA knockdown indicated that cell surface expression of Cx43alpha1 required N-cadherin, and conversely, N-cadherin cell surface expression required Cx43alpha1. Pulse-chase labeling and cell surface biotinylation experiments indicated that in the ...

Project SummaryDuring embryogenesis or wound healing, neighboring cells maintain contact and migrate collectively, thoughthe roles of cell-cell adhesion during collective cell migration is poorly defined. Due to constant pulling andpushing between migrating neighboring cells, we hypothesize that mechanical forces regulate theinteraction between the cell-cell adhesion complex and the actin cytoskeleton, and therefore, theadhesive strength. To identify force-sensitive protein complexes at cell-cell junctions, our innovativebiochemical analysis combines in situ proximal biotin labeling with a cell stretch device that promotes theformation of force-sensitive complexes. By fusing ?-catenin with a promiscuous biotin ligase, any proximalproteins of ?-catenin will be biotinylated. The force-dependent change in the biotinylation profile is an indicationof altered protein complexes. Our preliminary study demonstrates that ?-catenin and myosin IIA are likelyinteracting in a force-dependent manner. While ...
Surface biotinylation and NeutrAvidin pull-down were performed similar to what has been described previously (Zha et al., 2009a; Jing et al., 2011). For biotinylation of organotypic hippocampal slices, each filter, which contained 6-8 slices, was cut out and put in a six-well plate. CHO cells or slices were then washed three times with ice-cold PBS+/+, followed by 30 min incubation at 4°C in 1.5 ml (for CHO cells in 60 mm dishes) or 1 ml (for slices in each well of the 6-well plate) of PBS+/+ containing 0.5 mg/ml Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin. Cells were washed once with cold PBS+/+ and the reaction was quenched by 100 mm glycine in PBS+/+. Of note, it is essential, especially for biotinylation of slices, to keep the solution and plates ice cold during the whole procedure. Cells were lysed in 300 μl of NeutrAvidin lysis buffer (PBS, 1% Triton, 0.5% SDS, 0.5 mg/ml N-ethylmaleimide, with protease inhibiters). Cell lysates were sonicated briefly and centrifuged at full speed with a desktop centrifuge for ...

Abstract: Abstract Background Glioblastoma multiformae (GBM) is the most aggressive type of malignant brain tumor with complex molecular profile. Overexpression of Na+/H+ Exchanger isoform 9 (NHE9) promotes tumor progression and correlates positively with insensitivity to radiochemotherapy and poor prognosis. However, molecular mechanisms responsible for increase in NHE9 levels beyond a critical threshold have not been identified. Methods Bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assays, real-time PCR and western blotting were conducted to examine the expression profiles and identify microRNAs (miRNA) that target NHE9. Cell proliferation and migration assays were conducted in U87 glioblastoma cells to determine the consequence of miRNA mediated targeting of NHE9. Endosomal pH measurements, immunofluorescence microscopy and surface biotinylation experiments were conducted to characterize the mechanistic basis of regulation. Results We show that microRNA 135a (miR-135a) targets NHE9 to ...
We performed bio-ChIP-seq using streptavidin beads immunoprecipitation of biotinylated 5 cardiac transcription factors (fbio) and P300 antibody ChIP-seq. We used a dox-inducible dual adenovirus system to express biotinylated Core Cardiac TFs in HL1. One adenovirus expressed the dox-activated reverse tet activator protein (rtTA) and the E. coli biotinylating enzyme BirA from the cardiac specific rat troponin T promoter. The second virus expressed a Core Cardiac TF fused to a C-terminal flag-bio epitope tag, where bio is the 15 amino acid substrate for BirA. This in vivo biotinylation approach permits pulldown of different factors to be performed under identical, stringent conditions, and circumvents limitations posed by available antibodies. We titrated adenovirus and dox doses to express GATA4flbio and MEF2Aflbio at near endogenous levels. The same conditions were then used to express SRFflbio, TBX5flbio, and NKX2-5flbio.

N2 - The use of biotin or biotin-containing reagents is an essential component of many protein purification and labeling technologies. Owing to its small size and high affinity to the avidin family of proteins, biotin is a versatile molecular handle that permits both enrichment and purity that is not easily achieved by other reagents. Traditionally, the use of biotinylation to enrich for proteins has not required the detection of the site of biotinylation. However, newer technologies for discovery of protein-protein interactions, such as APEX and BioID, as well as some of the click chemistry-based labeling approaches have ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - CCL2 promotes P2X4 receptor trafficking to the cell surface of microglia. AU - Toyomitsu, Emika. AU - Tsuda, Makoto. AU - Yamashita, Tomohiro. AU - Tozaki-Saitoh, Hidetoshi. AU - Tanaka, Yoshitaka. AU - Inoue, Kazuhide. PY - 2012/6/1. Y1 - 2012/6/1. N2 - P2X4 receptors (P2X4Rs), a subtype of the purinergic P2X family, play important roles in regulating neuronal and glial functions in the nervous system. We have previously shown that the expression of P2X4Rs is upregulated in activated microglia after peripheral nerve injury and that activation of the receptors by extracellular ATP is crucial for maintaining nerve injury-induced pain hypersensitivity. However, the regulation of P2X4R expression on the cell surface of microglia is poorly understood. Here, we identify the CC chemokine receptor CCR2 as a regulator of P2X4R trafficking to the cell surface of microglia. In a quantitative cell surface biotinylation assay, we found that applying CCL2 or CCL12, endogenous ligands for ...

A gray area at times. Have used the Scytek kit (check out website) for frozen sections, but did not use their peroxidase blocker, it ate frozens off the slide. Substituted a Dako peroxidase blocker for frozens was much friendlier. The kicker with this kit, their special blocker is excellent, and you have to use their chromogen with this kit. What really worked for us was to use their two blockers (not the peroxidase block though),a biotinylated primary in place of a secondary antibody with the Scytek kit since we did not have a purified primary on hand. We also diluted out the biotinylated primary further, so do a more extended dilution panel, this reduced our cross reaction background. This is the basis of the DAKO ARK kit, biotinylating the primary, some antibodies don biotinylate as well, a potential problem, but may work with yours, so another option - DAKO ARK kit. There are others on the market, Zymed, Innovex, Vector MOM kit, etc, all worth a try. Have heard some mixed reviews on Mouse ...
I wish to immobilise a peptide on a column. I think the easiest way to do this would be to biotinylate the peptide at the C-terminus and link it to streptavidin-agarose. a) Is this true? b) What is the easiest way to biotinylate specifically on the C-terminus of a peptide - do I link through a cysteine? c) How do I get rid of free biotin from a small peptide (approx. 2kD ...

Just for the sake of completing this thread, Ive decided to do a cell surface receptor biotinylation assay. Basically, incubating cells with biotin (in cold PBS) which binds to all available primary amines on the cell surface. After 1h of incubation, un-bound biotin will be inactivated by incubating the cells in 50mM Tris pH 8 for 5 min. After that, I will lyse the cells and precipitate surface proteins with streptavidin agarose. Finally, the cells surface receptor will be visualized through western blotting.. ...
Oligomerization plays an important role in endoplasmic reticulum processing and membrane insertion (and ultimately in regulation of function) of a number of transmembrane spanning proteins. Furthermore, it is known that adenylyl cyclases (ACs), critical regulators of cellular functions, associate into higher order (dimeric) forms. However, the importance of these higher order aggregates in regulating adenylyl cyclase activity or trafficking to the cell membrane is unclear. Therefore, we examined the potential role of oligomerization in the membrane trafficking of adenylyl cyclase. For this purpose, the ability of full-length adenylyl cyclase and various truncation mutants to self-assemble and to be targeted to the cell membrane was assessed. A truncation mutant comprised of the initial six transmembrane spanning domains and half of the C1 catalytic domain coimmunoprecipitated with full-length AC VI. Using both biotinylation assays and assessment of enzyme distribution using sucrose density ...

Regulation of the expression of the gene(s) coding for the 78-kD, biotin-containing subunit of [beta]-methylcrotonyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (MCCase) was investigated in different organs of tomato (Lycopersicon esculantus) plants. The specific activity of MCCase is highest in extracts from roots, followed in descending order by ripe and ripening fruits, stems, and leaves. The specific activity is 10-fold higher in roots than in leaves. However, the steady-state levels of the 78-kD subunit of MCCase and its mRNA are approximately equal in both roots and leaves. Instead, the difference in MCCase activity between these two organs is directly correlated to the biotinylation status of the enzymes biotin-containing subunit. Thus, the lower activity of MCCase in leaves is attributed to the reduced biotinylation of the biotin-containing subunit of the enzyme. Consistent with this model, a pool of nonbiotinylated enzyme is present in leaves, whereas the nonbiotinylated enzyme is undetectable in roots. ...
The attachment of biotin to various chemical sites, called biotinylation, can be used as an important laboratory technique to study various processes including DNA transcription and replication. Biotin itself is known to biotinylate histones, but is not found naturally on DNA.. Biotin binds very tightly to the tetrameric protein streptavidin, with a dissociation constant Kd in the order of 10-15 mol/L (Bonjour 1977, Green 1975) or 4x10-14 (Holmberg et al. 2005). Holmberg et al. (2005) note that the biotin-streptavidin system is the strongest noncovalent biological interaction known. This is often used in different biotechnological applications. Holmberg et al. showed how to utilize high temperatures to efficiently break the interaction without denaturation of the streptavidin.. In the biology laboratory, biotin is sometimes chemically linked, or tagged, to a molecule or protein for biochemical assays. The specificity of the biotin-streptavidin linkage allow use in molecular, immunological, and ...

MHC multimers are oligomeric forms of MHC molecules, designed to identify and isolate T-cells with high affinity to specific antigens amid a large group of unrelated T-cells. Multimers generally range in size from dimers to octamers; however, some companies use even higher quantities of MHC per multimer. Multimers may be used to display class 1 MHC, class 2 MHC, or nonclassical molecules (e.g. CD1d) from species such as monkeys, mice, and humans. Since T-cell receptors have a low affinity for their MHC counterparts, it was historically problematic to label T cells effectively using single MHC-T-cell interactions. However, in 1996 it was proposed by John Altman to use a complex of multiple MHC molecules to form a more stable bond between corresponding T-cells. The most commonly used MHC multimers are tetramers. These are typically produced by biotinylating soluble MHC monomers, which are typically produced recombinantly in eukaryotic or bacterial cells. These monomers then bind to a backbone, ...

Biotin protein ligase of is the 35. or that the presence of the reaction intermediate impedes access of subtilisin to the cleavage site. The disordered loop containing residues 115C123 lies close to the biotin binding site, and residues 115C118 become ordered in the crystal structure when biotinyl-lysine occupies the active site. Because of the similarity to nucleotide-binding sequences in protein buy 118876-58-7 kinases, the sequence 115GRGRRG120 within this loop had been thought to function in ATP binding (Buoncristiani et al. 1986; Wilson et al. 1992). However, a recent mutational analysis shows that this sequence has a role in biotin binding (Kwon and Beckett 2000). No function has been identified previously for the C-terminal domain comprising residues 274C321, which shows structural similarity to the Src homology 3 domains (Noble et al. 1993). However, recent evidence of safety by biotinyl-5-AMP buy 118876-58-7 against hydroxyl radical cleavage from the BirA backbone at a number of sites ...
Adenoviral vectors have great potential for use in gene therapy and genetic immunization. The targeting of Ad vectors to the relevant tissue and cell types in vivo could greatly improve their safety and performance by lowering the effective dosage required for therapeutic levels of gene expression. Redirection of Ad vector tropism will require physical modifications of the adenoviral capsid but direct genetic modification of the Ad capsid has so far been limited to small peptides. A novel system for the attachment of targeting ligands to the Ad capsid, based on the extremely strong avidin-biotin interaction, is described herein. The genetic insertion of a biotin acceptor peptide (BAP) into the fiber, protein IX, or hexon components of the Ad capsid has resulted in vectors that are metabolically biotinylated upon production in host cells. Avidin-dependent redirection of transduction through a variety of biotinylated ligands is greatly dependent on the nature of the biotinylated capsid protein. ...
In 2012, Roux et al. published a nice paper, that received no less than four article recommendations from F1000 researchers. The paper described a method for tracking the interaction partners a protein has had within a cell (a history of its interacting partners). The method, called BioID, is based on proximity-dependent biotinylation of proteins by a promiscuous biotin ligase mutant BirA (R118G), which is fused to your protein of interest. After an overnight incubation with biotin, cells can be subjected to harsh lysis and biotinylated proteins can be isolated and identified by mass spectroscopy to determine the proteins that had come into contact with the chimeric BirA (R118G) protein. This method is a bit different from standard co-IP or pull-down experiments, because it allows one to identify proteins who interact transiently or weakly with the protein of interest. Also, due to the strong biotin-avidin binding affinity, harsh washes can greatly reduce background protein binding. [Read ...

In biochemistry, biotinylation is the entire process of covalently attaching biotin to a protein, nucleic acid or other molecule. Biotinylation is quick, certain and is not likely to perturb the natural operate from the molecule due to the small dimension of biotin (MW = 244.31 g/mol). Biotin binds to streptavidin and avidin with an especially superior affinity, quick on-price, and higher specificity, and these interactions are exploited in many areas of biotechnology to isolate biotinylated molecules of desire. Biotin-binding to streptavidin and avidin is resistant to extremes of heat, pH and proteolysis, earning capture of biotinylated molecules attainable in numerous types of environments ...

SE arises from deficits in the efficacy of GABAergic inhibition that include altered GABAAR functional expression and pharmacology; however, the mechanisms underlying these deficits remain to be established (Lowenstein and Alldredge, 1998; Alldredge and Lowenstein, 1999). To address this critical question, we have examined the impact of SE on GABAAR functional expression together with the efficacy of synaptic inhibition in hippocampal slices derived from mice injected with pilocarpine. This animal model exhibits many similarities to patients undergoing SE including the development of pharmacoresistance (Kapur and Coulter, 1995; Coulter, 2001).. As measured using biotinylation, the cell surface stability of the GABAAR α1, 2, 4, β3, and γ2 subunits was significantly reduced in SE compared with controls, whereas those encoding the GABABR R1 and R2 subunits were unaltered. In contrast, the cell surface stability of the α5 and δ subunits was significantly increased. Thus, our results demonstrate ...
