ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) is the type of stroke associated with the highest death rate, and about 30% of ICH occurs in patients on antithrombotic treatment. This study relates clinical presentations and outcome of ICH patients on oral anticoagulant (OA) or antiplatelet (AP) therapy admitted to 33 Italian emergency departments (ED). METHODS: Consecutive patients were enrolled after cranial computed tomography (CT). Primary outcome was the Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) score at 3 months of follow-up. Common descriptive statistics were computed after stratification for traumatic or spontaneous ICH and identification of the anatomical location of bleeding. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess predictors of death. RESULTS: We recruited 434 patients on AP therapy and 232 on OA. There were 432 spontaneous and 234 traumatic ICH patients. The proportions of AP and OA patients undergoing neurosurgery were 21.8 and 19.4%, respectively, while < 30% underwent procoagulant medical treatment. At the 3-month follow-up, the case fatality rate was 42.0%, while disability or death (MRS 3-6) was 68.1%. The odds ratio for death in OA versus AP patients was 2.63 (95% CI 1.73-4.00) in the whole population and 2.80 (95% CI 1.77-4.41) in intraparenchymal event patients. Glasgow Coma Scale, age, spontaneous event and anticoagulant use were found to be predictors of death both in traumatic and spontaneous events. CONCLUSION: This study confirms the high prevalence of death or disability in OA and AP patients with ICH. As far as the determinants of mortality and disability are concerned, the results of this study might be useful in the clinical management and allocation of resources in the ED setting. The observed low use of procoagulant therapy highlights the need for ED educational programmes to heighten the awareness of available and effective haemostatic treatments.

ABSTRACT

After minus-strand strong-stop DNA (-sssDNA) is synthesized, the RNA template is degraded by the RNase H activity of the reverse transcriptase (RT), generating a single-stranded DNA. The 3' end of -sssDNA from HIV-1 can form a hairpin; this hairpin will self-prime in vitro. We previously used a model substrate, -R ssDNA, which corresponds to the 3' end of the -sssDNA of HIV-1, to show that the self-priming of this model substrate could be prevented by annealing a 17-nt-long DNA oligonucleotide to the 3' end of -R ssDNA in the presence of HIV-1 nucleocapsid (NC) protein. Similar model substrates were prepared for HIV-2 and HTLV-1; the R regions of these two viruses are longer and form more complex structures than the R region of the HIV-1 genome. However, the size of the R region and the complexity of the secondary structures they can form do not affect self-priming or its prevention. The efficiency of the self-priming is related to the relative stabilities of the conformations of -R ssDNA that can and cannot induce self-priming. For the three viruses (HIV-1, HIV-2, and HTLV-1), the size of the DNA oligonucleotide needed to block self-priming in the presence of NC is similar to the expected size of the piece of RNA left after degradation of the RNA template during reverse transcription. We also found that when the 3' end of -R ssDNA is annealed to a complementary DNA oligonucleotide, it is a good substrate for efficient nonspecific strand transfer to other single-stranded DNA molecules.

ABSTRACT

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT), nucleocapsid protein (NC), genomic RNA, and the growing DNA strand all influence the copying of the HIV-1 RNA genome into DNA. A detailed understanding of these activities is required to understand the process of reverse transcription. HIV-1 viral DNA is initiated from a tRNA(3)(Lys) primer bound to the viral genome at the primer binding site. The U3 and R regions of the RNA genome are the first sequences to be copied. The TAR hairpin, a structure found within the R region of the viral genome, is the site of increased RT pausing, RNase H activity, and RT dissociation. Template RNA was digested approximately 17 bases behind the site where polymerase paused at the base of TAR. In most template RNAs, this was the only cleavage made by the RT responsible for initiating polymerization. If the RT that initiated DNA synthesis dissociated from the base of the TAR hairpin and an RT rebound at the end of the primer, there was competition between the polymerase and RNase H activities. After the complete heteroduplex was formed, there were additional RNase H cleavages that did not involve polymerization. Levels of NC that prevented TAR DNA self-priming did not protect genomic RNA from RNase H digestion. RNase H digestion of the 100-bp heteroduplex produced a 14-base RNA from the 5' end of the RNA that remained annealed to the 3' end of the minus-strand strong-stop DNA only if NC was present in the reaction.

ABSTRACT

The Escherichia coli DNA repair enzyme MutY plays an important role in the prevention of DNA mutations by removing misincorporated adenine residues from 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine:2'-deoxyadenosine (OG:A) mispairs. The N-terminal domain of MutY (Stop 225, Met1-Lys225) has a sequence and structure that is characteristic of a superfamily of base excision repair glycosylases; however, MutY and its homologs contain a unique C-terminal domain. Previous studies have shown that the C-terminal domain confers specificity for OG:A substrates over G:A substrates and exhibits homology to the d(OG)TPase MutT, suggesting a role in OG recognition. In order to provide additional information on the importance of the C-terminal domain in damage recognition, we have investigated the kinetic properties of a form lacking this domain (Stop 225) under multiple- and single-turnover conditions. In addition, the interaction of Stop 225 with a series of non-cleavable substrate and product analogs was evaluated using gel retardation assays and footprinting experiments. Under multiple-turnover conditions Stop 225 exhibits biphasic kinetic behavior with both OG:A and G:A substrates, likely due to rate-limiting DNA product release. However, the rate of turnover of Stop 225 was increased 2-fold with OG:A substrates compared to the wild-type enzyme. In contrast, the intrinsic rate for adenine removal by Stop 225 from both G:A and OG:A substrates is significantly reduced (10- to 25-fold) compared to the wild-type. The affinity of Stop 225 for substrate analogs was dramatically reduced, as was the ability to discriminate between substrate analogs paired with OG over G. Interestingly, similar hydroxyl radical and DMS footprinting patterns are observed for Stop 225 and wild-type MutY bound to DNA duplexes containing OG opposite an abasic site mimic or a non-hydrogen bonding A analog, suggesting that similar regions of the DNA are contacted by both enzyme forms. Importantly, Stop 225 has a reduced ability to prevent DNA mutations in vivo. This implies that the reduced adenine glycosylase activity translates to a reduced capacity of Stop 225 to prevent DNA mutations in vivo.

ABSTRACT

Escherichia coli MutY is an adenine glycosylase involved in base excision repair that recognizes OG:A (where OG = 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine) and G:A mismatches in DNA. MutY contains a solvent-exposed polypeptide loop between two of the cysteine ligands to the [4Fe-4S](2+) cluster, referred to as the iron-sulfur cluster loop (FCL) motif. The FCL is located adjacent to the proposed active site pocket and has been suggested to be part of the DNA binding surface of MutY (Y. Guan et al., 1998, Nat. Struct. Biol. 5, 1058-1064). In order to investigate the role of specific residues within the FCL motif, we have determined the effects of replacing arginine 194, lysine 196, and lysine 198 with alanine on the enzymatic properties of MutY. The properties of the R194A, K196A, and K198A enzymes were also compared to the properties of mutated enzymes in which lysine residues near the active site pocket were replaced with alanine or glycine. Substrate recognition was evaluated using a duplex containing a 2'-deoxyadenosine analog in a base pair opposite G or OG. These results indicate that removal of positively charged amino acids within the FCL and the active site compromise the ability of the enzyme to bind to the substrate analog. However, only the K198A enzyme exhibited a significant reduction (15-fold) of the rate of adenine removal from a G:A base pair-containing duplex. This is the first direct evidence that Lys 198 within the FCL motif of MutY has a role in specific damage recognition and removal. Furthermore, these results suggest that the FCL motif is intimately involved in the base removal process.

ABSTRACT

The Escherichia coli DNA repair enzyme MutY plays an important role in the recognition and repair of 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine:2'-deoxyadenosine (OG:A) mismatches in DNA [Michaels et al. (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S. A. 89, 7022-7025]. MutY prevents DNA mutations resulting from the misincorporation of A opposite OG by using N-glycosylase activity to remove the adenine base. An interesting feature of MutY is that it contains a [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster that has been shown to play an important role in substrate recognition [Porello, S. L., Cannon, M. J., David, S. S. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 6465-6475]. Herein, we have used site-directed mutagenesis to individually replace the cysteine ligands to the [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster of E. coli MutY with serine, histidine, and alanine. The extent to which the various mutations reduce the levels of protein overexpression suggests that coordination of the [4Fe-4S]2+ cluster provides stability to MutY in vivo. The ability of the mutated enzymes to bind to a substrate analogue DNA duplex and their in vivo activity were evaluated. Remarkably, the effects are both substitution and position dependent. For example, replacement of cysteine 199 with histidine provides a mutated enzyme that is expressed at high levels and exhibits DNA binding and in vivo activity similar to the WT enzyme. These results suggest that histidine coordination to the iron-sulfur cluster may be accommodated at this position in MutY. In contrast, replacement of cysteine 192 with histidine results in less efficient DNA binding and in vivo activity compared to the WT enzyme without affecting levels of overexpression. The results from the site-directed mutagenesis suggest that the structural properties of the iron-sulfur cluster coordination domain are important for both substrate DNA recognition and the in vivo activity of MutY.

ABSTRACT

The [2Fe-2S] cluster of the ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum is coordinated by cysteines 11, 56, and 60 and by a fourth cysteine, residue 24 in the wild-type protein, located on a flexible and deletable loop around residues 14-30. New mutated forms of this ferredoxin show that the fourth cysteine ligand can be located in any one of positions 14, 16, 21, 24, or 26. Another set of molecular variants has unveiled a new case of ligand swapping on the cysteine 60 ligand site. Replacement of cysteine 60 by alanine and introduction of a cysteine in position 21 yielded a ferredoxin that assembles a [2Fe-2S] cluster of which the ligands are cysteines 11, 21, 24, and 56. This cysteine ligand pattern is similar to that occurring in plant-type or mammalian-type ferredoxins, although the overall sequence similarities are below detection. Moreover, the vibrational and electronic properties of the resulting [2Fe-2S]2+/+ center, as revealed by resonance Raman and EPR studies, are strikingly similar to those of mammalian-type ferredoxins. The extensive set of mutated forms of the C. pasteurianum ferredoxin now available indicates that cysteine ligand exchange may occur on residues 24 and 60, but not on residues 11 and 56. It is thus suggested that cysteines 24 and 60 are part of a solvent accessible aspect of the Fe-S cluster, whereas cysteines 11 and 56 are buried and form the more rigid part of the polypeptide ligand framework. In view of the unprecedented versatility of this [2Fe-2S] cluster and of its polypeptidic environment, the introduction of ligands other than cysteine in various positions has been attempted. These experiments have remained unsuccessful, and even including previous studies, noncysteinyl ligation has been obtained with this protein in only very few cases. The data provide an extensive confirmation that Fe-S clusters have a strong preference for thiolate ligation and rationalize the relatively rare occurrence of noncysteinyl ligation in native Fe-S proteins.

ABSTRACT

Putative physiological partners of the [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum have been searched by running crude soluble extracts of this bacterium through an affinity column to which the [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin had been covalently bound. Subsequent washing of the column with buffers of increasing ionic strength revealed a strong and specific interaction of the ferredoxin with the MoFe protein of nitrogenase. This interaction was further investigated by performing cross-linking experiments with mixtures of the two purified proteins in solution. Analysis of the reactions by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis evidenced only two covalently linked products. These were identified by N-terminal sequencing as the alpha and beta subunits of the MoFe protein, each cross-linked to a single polypeptide chain of the ferredoxin. This result, taking into account the dimeric structure of the ferredoxin in solution, strongly suggests an interaction of the ferredoxin with the MoFe protein at a site contributed to by both subunits of the MoFe protein. The ionic strength dependence of the interaction evidenced by affinity chromatography was confirmed in the cross-linking reactions, and its specificity was assessed by showing that no cross-linking occurred when the [2Fe-2S] C. pasteurianum ferredoxin was denatured or replaced by spinach ferredoxin or by clostridial rubredoxin, or when the MoFe protein from C. pasteurianum was either inactivated or replaced by its counterpart from Azotobacter vinelandii. It has also been observed that the ferredoxin inhibits cross-linking between the nitrogenase Fe protein and the MoFe protein, which suggests overlapping binding sites of the ferredoxin and of the Fe protein on the MoFe protein. Cross-linking experiments implementing a number of molecular variants of the [2Fe-2S] C. pasteurianum ferredoxin demonstrated that glutamate residues 31, 34, and 38 are important contributors to the interaction with the MoFe protein.

ABSTRACT

The [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum contains five cysteine residues in positions 11, 14, 24, 56, and 60. This pattern is unique, and a combination of site-directed mutagenesis and spectroscopy is therefore being implemented to identify the ligands of the [2Fe-2S] cluster. The possible involvement of ligands other than cysteine in some molecular variants of this ferredoxin has been considered, histidines being likely candidates. Therefore, the three histidine residues in positions 6, 7, and 90 of the amino acid sequence have been individually and collectively replaced by alanine or valine. The mutated ferredoxins have been purified and were all found to contain [2Fe-2S] clusters of which the UV-visible absorption spectra were identical to that of the wild-type protein. The H6A/H7A/ H90A triply mutated ferredoxin was further characterized by EPR and by ESEEM spectroscopy and was found to differ only marginally from the wild-type protein. The ESEEM spectra of wild-type ferredoxin displayed weak 14N hyperfine interactions at the three principal g-factors of the [2Fe-2S] center. The estimated 14N coupling constants (Aiso = 0.6 MHz; e2qQ approximately 3.3 MHz) indicate that the ESEEM effect is most likely due to 14N from the polypeptide backbone. 2H2O ESEEM spectra showed that the [2Fe-2S] cluster is accessible for exchange with solvent deuterons. ESEEM spectra of the previously characterized C24A and C14A/C24A variants have been recorded and were also found to be very similar to those of the wild-type protein. There was no evidence for coordination of the [2Fe-2S] cluster by [14N]histidine or other 14N nuclei, in either wild-type or mutant forms of the ferredoxin. By these criteria, the environment of the [2Fe-2S] center is not distinguishable from those in plant-type ferredoxins. Non-cysteinyl coordination most probably occurs only in the C14A/C24A variant, which contains no more than three cysteine residues. The data shown here indicate that the fourth ligand of the [2Fe-2S] cluster is neither a histidine residue nor another nitrogenous ligand. The possibility of oxygenic coordination for this molecular variant is discussed.

ABSTRACT

The [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum is unique among ferredoxins, both by its sequence and by the distribution of its cysteine residues (in positions 11, 14, 24, 56, and 60). In previous investigations, a combination of site-directed mutagenesis and of spectroscopic techniques showed that cysteines 11, 56, and 60 are ligands of the [2Fe-2S] cluster in the wild type protein and that cysteine 14 is not, but the status of cysteine 24 remained unclear. New mutated forms of this ferredoxin have been obtained and characterized. The data show that cysteine 24 is a ligand of the cluster in the wild type protein. When cysteine 24 is mutated into alanine, it is replaced as a cluster ligand by cysteine 14. The fourth ligand of the cluster can also be a cysteine residue newly introduced in position 16 when both cysteines 14 and 24 are replaced by alanine. These results suggest that the region encompassing cysteines 14 and 24 is a solvent-exposed flexible loop, in agreement with structure predictions. A number of nondeleterious deletions of variable length (3-14 residues) have been performed in the region of residues 17-32. The deletions were found to modify only marginally the spectroscopic properties of the [2Fe-2S] cluster but resulted in variations of its redox potential over a range of nearly 100 mV. This is the first instance of ligand swapping in a [2Fe-2S] protein, and the first time in any ferredoxin that a large loop has been excised from the structure without preventing the assembly of the iron-sulfur chromophore. Some of the molecular variants described here also highlight the similarities between the C. pasteurianum [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin and the 25 kDa subunit of the proton-translocating NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase of Paracoccus denitrificans.

ABSTRACT

The [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin from Clostridium pasteurianum is a homodimeric protein of which each subunit contains one [2Fe-2S] cluster. In previous investigations, the five cysteine residues in positions 11, 14, 24, 56 and 60 had been mutated into serine or alanine. The wild type ferredoxin and several of its molecular variants have now been analyzed by electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry. In the negative-ion detection mode, depending on the infusion solvent used, molecular peaks attributable to the apoprotein, to the monomeric holoprotein, and to the dimeric holoprotein were detected in all cases. The data confirmed the presence of the expected mutations, showed that all of these proteins contain one [2Fe-2S] cluster per subunit, and indicated that the dimeric structure of these ferredoxins could be retained in the conditions of the electrospray ionization. This investigation establishes the power of electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry for the analysis of oligomeric proteins containing labile metal clusters.
