TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo Y học: Expression of recombinant murine pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and a novel variant (PAPP-Ai) with differential proteolytic activity

Murine pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) cDNA encoding a 1545 amino-acid protein has been cloned. We have also identified and cloned cDNA that encodes a novel variant of PAPP-A, PAPP-Ai, carrying a 29-residue highly basic insert. The point of insertion corresponds to a junction between two exons in the human PAPP-A gene. The human intron flanked by these exons does not encode a homologous corresponding insert, which is unique to the mouse. | Eur. J.

We have also identified and cloned cDNA that encodes a novel variant of PAPP-A PAPP-Ai carrying a 29-residue highly basic insert. Tie point of insertion corresponds to a junction between two exons in the human PAPP-A gene. The human intron flanked by these exons does not encode a homologous corresponding insert which is unique to the mouse. The ovrrall eequenre idnntity htlween murine and human PAPP-A is 91 and murine PAPP-A contains sequence motifs previously described in the sequence of human PAPP-A. Through expt esinm m mammalían cells we show that murine PAPP-A and PAPP-Ai are active metalloproteinases both capable of cleaving insulin-like growth factor binding protein IGFBP -4 and -5. Qeavage of IGFBP-4 is dramatically enhanced by the addition of IGF whereas cleavage of IGFBP-5 is slightly inhibited by IGF as previously established with human PAPP-A. Surprisingly however quantitative analyses demonstrate that the murine PAPP-Ai cleaves IGFBP-4 very slowly compared to PAPP-A even though its ability to cleave IGFBP-5 is unaffected by the presence of the insert. By RT-PCR analysis we find that both variants are expressed in several tissues. The level nf mRNA m the mutine paic-enta does not exceed the levels of other tissues .
