An Update on Jacalin-Like Lectins and Their Role in Plant Defense
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review An Update on Jacalin-Like Lectins and Their Role in Plant Defense Lara Esch and Ulrich Schaffrath * ID Department of Plant Physiology, RWTH Aachen University, 52056 Aachen, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-241-8020100 Received: 30 June 2017; Accepted: 20 July 2017; Published: 22 July 2017 Abstract: Plant lectins are proteins that reversibly bind carbohydrates and are assumed to play an important role in plant development and resistance. Through the binding of carbohydrate ligands, lectins are involved in the perception of environmental signals and their translation into phenotypical responses. These processes require down-stream signaling cascades, often mediated by interacting proteins. Fusing the respective genes of two interacting proteins can be a way to increase the efﬁciency of this process. Most recently, proteins containing jacalin-related lectin (JRL) domains became a subject of plant resistance responses research. A meta-data analysis of fusion proteins containing JRL domains across different kingdoms revealed diverse partner domains ranging from kinases to toxins. Among them, proteins containing a JRL domain and a dirigent domain occur exclusively within monocotyledonous plants and show an unexpected high range of family member expansion compared to other JRL-fusion proteins. Rice, wheat, and barley plants overexpressing OsJAC1, a member of this family, are resistant against important fungal pathogens. We discuss the possibility that JRL domains also function as a decoy in fusion proteins and help to alert plants of the presence of attacking pathogens. Keywords: fusion protein; JRL domain; plant resistance; dirigent protein; decoy; chimeric protein 1.

The TIM Barrel Fold Nagarajan D
The TIM barrel fold Nagarajan D. and Nanajkar N. Comments and corrections: Line 10: fix “αhelices” in “α-helices”. Lines 11-12: C-terminal loops are important for catalytic activity, while N-terminal loops are important for the stability of the TIM-barrels. This should be mentioned. Line 14: The reference #7 is not related to the statement. Line 14: There is a new EC classe (EC.7, translocases). Change “5 of 6” in “5 of 7”. Lines 26-27: It is not correct to state that the shear number of 8 for the TIM-barrels is due to “their staggered nature”. Most of the β-barrels have a staggered nature, but their shear number is not 8. Line 27: The reference #2 is imprecise. Wierenga did not defined himself the shear number of TIM-barrel proteins. Please check the 2 papers of Murzin AG, 1994, “Principle determining the structure of β-sheet barrels in proteins,” I and II, and the paper of Liu W, 1998, “Shear numbers of protein β-barrels: definition refinements and statistics”. Line 29: Again, it is not correct to state that the 4-fold geometric symmetry depends on the stagger. Since the number of strands (n) is equal to the Shear number (S), side-chains point alternatively towards the pore and the core, giving a 4-fold symmetry. Line 37: “historically” is a bit exaggerated for a reference dated 2015, especially if it comes from the author itself. Find a true historic reference, or just mention that you defined the regions “core” and “pore”. Line 43: “Consequently” is misleading.

In order to discover new putative cohesin/dockerin-containing proteins, we used sequences of all the classical cohesin and dockerin modules from C. thermocellum, C. cellulovorans, C. cellulolyticum, B. cellulosolvens and Acetivibrio cellulolyticus as well as cohesins and dockerins recently discovered in rumen bacteria, Ruminococcus albus and R. flavefaciens as BlastP queries for the main NCBI Blast server against all non- redundant protein sequences deposited in GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ databases. We also performed extensive searches using the TblastN algorithm through all publicly available microbial genome databases including those attached to the NCBI BLAST server for bacterial genomes (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sutils/genom_table.cgi?), as well as several additional microbial genome databases – Microbial Genomics at the DOE Joint Genome Institute (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/mic_home.html), the Rumenomics database at TIGR/JCVI (http://tigrblast.tigr.org/rumenomics/index.cgi) and Bacterial Genomes at the Sanger Centre (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/Microbes/). Once a putative cohesin or dockerin-encoding gene product was identified, gene-walking techniques were employed to analyze and locate possible cellulosome-like gene clusters.

Abstract The small beta barrel is a protein structural domain, highly conserved throughout evolution and hence exhibits a broad diversity of functions. Here we undertake a comprehensive review of the structural features of this domain. We begin with what characterizes the structure and the variable nomenclature that has been used to describe it. We then go on to explore the anatomy of the structure and how functional diversity is achieved, including through establishing a variety of multimeric states, which, if misformed, contribute to disease states.

Folding-TIM Barrel
Protein Folding Practical September 2011 Folding up the TIM barrel Preliminary Examine the parallel beta barrel that you constructed, noting the stagger of the strands that was needed to connect the ends of the 8-stranded parallel beta sheet into the 8-stranded beta barrel. Notice that the stagger dictates which side of the sheet is on the inside and which is on the outside. This will be key information in folding the complete TIM linear peptide into the TIM barrel. Assembling the full linear peptide 1. Make sure the white beta strands are extended correctly, and the 8 yellow helices (with the green loops at each end) are correctly folded into an alpha helix (right handed with H-bonds to the 4th ahead in the chain). 2. starting with a beta strand connect an alpha helix and green loop to make the blue-red connecting peptide bond. Making sure that you connect the carbonyl (red) end of the beta strand to the amino (blue) end of the loop-helix-loop. Secure the just connected peptide bond bond with a twist-tie as shown. 3. complete step 2 for all beta strand/loop-helix-loop pairs, working in parallel with your partners 4. As pairs are completed attach the carboxy end of the strand- loop-helix-loop to the amino end of the next strand-loop-helix-loop module and secure the new peptide bond with a twist-tie as before. Repeat until the full linear TIM polypeptide chain is assembled. Make sure all strands and helices are still in the correct conformations.

Comparative Sequence Analysis of the South African Vaccine Strain and Two Virulent field Isolates of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus
Arch Virol (2003) 148: 1335–1356 DOI 10.1007/s00705-003-0102-0 Comparative sequence analysis of the South African vaccine strain and two virulent field isolates of Lumpy skin disease virus P. D.

Rock2 1Biotechnology Division, Onderstepoort Veterinary Institute, Onderstepoort, South Africa 2Plum Island Animal Disease Centre, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Greenport, New York, U.S.A. 3IGBMC, Illkirch, France Received November 25, 2002; accepted February 17, 2003 Published online May 5, 2003 c Springer-Verlag 2003 Summary.The genomic sequences of 3 strains of Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) (Neethling type) were compared to determine molecular differences, viz. the South African vaccine strain (LW), a virulent field-strain from a recent outbreak in South Africa (LD), and the virulent Kenyan 2490 strain (LK). A comparison between the virulent field isolates indicates that in 29 of the 156 putative genes, only 38 encoded amino acid differences were found, mostly in the variable terminal regions. When the attenuated vaccine strain (LW) was compared with field isolate LD, a total of 438 amino acid substitutions were observed. These were also mainly in the terminal regions, but with notably more frameshifts leading to truncated ORFs as well as deletions and insertions. These modified ORFs encode proteins involved in the regulation of host immune responses, gene expression, DNA repair, host-range specificity and proteins with unassigned functions. We suggest that these differences could lead to restricted immuno-evasive mechanisms and virulence factors present in attenuated LSDV strains.
