A eukaryotic cambialistic superoxide dismutase (SOD) has been purified to homogeneity from mature seeds of the disease- and insect-resistant camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora). Besides the known role of this SOD in protecting cells against oxidative stress, it can induce the cleavage of supercoiled double-stranded DNA into nicked and linear DNA. It can not cleave linear DNA or RNA, demonstrating there is no DNase or RNase in the purified cambialistic SOD. Furthermore, the SOD can linearize circular pGEM-4Z DNA that is relaxed by topoisomerase I. This result indicates that the DNA-cleaving activity re- quires substrates being topologically constrained. The supercoiled DNA-cleaving activity of the cambialistic SOD can be inhibited by either SOD inhibitor (azide) or catalase and hydroxyl radical scavengers (ethanol and mannitol). The chelator of iron, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), also inhibits the supercoiled DNA-cleaving activity. These results show that the dismutation activity is crucial for the supercoiled DNA cleavage. The modification of tryptophan residue of the cambialistic SOD with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) shows that these two activities are structurally correlative. The reaction mechanism is proposed that the hydroxyl radical formed in a transition-metal-catalyzing Fenton-type reaction contributes to the DNA- cleaving activity. In addition, the cleavage sites in supercoiled pGEM-4Z DNA are random.

The developmental control of the human ε-globin gene expression is mediated by transcrip- tional regulatory elements in the 5’ flanking DNA of this gene. A previously identified negative regulatory element (–3028 to –2902 bp, termed ε-NRAII) was analyzed and one putative NF-κB site and two GATA sites locate at –3004 bp, –2975 bp and –2948 bp were characterized. Electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA) showed that the putative NF-κB site was specifically bound by nuclear proteins of K562 cells. Data obtained from transient transfection showed that the expression of reporter gene could be upregulated about 50% or 100% respectively when ε-NRAII was inserted upstream of the SV40 promoter or ε-globin gene proximal promoter (–177 bp to +1 bp), suggesting that ε-NRAII might not be a classic silencer. Mutation in the putative NF-κB site or in the GATA site (at –2975 bp) slightly reduced the expression of reporter gene driven by SV40 promoter or ε-globin gene proximal promoter. However, the mutation of GATA site at –2948 bp remarkably reduced the reporter gene activity driven by SV40 promoter, but not by ε-globin gene proximal promoter. Further mutation analysis showed that the negative effect of mutation in GATA site at –2948 bp on SV40 promoter was not affected by the mutation of the putative NF-κB site, whereas it could be abolished by the mutation of GATA site at –2975 bp. Furthermore, the mutation of both GATA sites could synergistically reduce the reporter gene activity driven by ε-globin gene proximal promoter. Those results suggested that ε- NRAII might function differently on the SV40 promoter and ε-globin gene proximal promoter.

Bin1b is a rat epididymis specific β-defensin which may have fertility related functions in addition to its antimicrobial activity. β-defensins are cysteine-rich cationic antimicrobial peptides that have their important implications in innate and adaptive immunity. Though considerable numbers of new β-defensins have been discovered, few corresponding antibodies have been reported. The small peptide with special structure and antimicrobial nature of β-defensins make them very difficult to express in prokaryotic system. Here we adopted a double-copy protein expression scheme based on which not only the mBin1b protein was successfully expressed but also the immunity of the antigen was enhanced. The validity of the antisera was verified by using Western blotting and immunohistochemical analyses. It will be a useful tool for deeply investigating the roles of Bin1b and also provide a simple but effective method in raising antisera against other members of the β-defensin gene family.

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a group of toxic proteins that can specifically act on the universally conserved sarcin/ricin domain (S/R domain) of the largest RNA in ribosome and thus irreversibly inactivate ribosome for protein synthesis. Cinnamomin is a multifunctional type II RIP isolated in our laboratory from the mature seeds of the camphor tree. This protein has been extensively studied with regard to its purification, characteristics, structure and function, genetic expression, enzymatic mechanism, physiological role in seed cell and toxicity to cancer cells and insect larvae. The research results of cinnamomin obtained in our laboratory are summarized in this review. Understanding of cinnamomin and the relative new proteins will help expand our knowledge of RIPs and may accelerate theoretical study and the development of their potential applications.
