Recently, we described that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from Leishmania major (LmGAPDH) was present in extracellular vesicles and it inhibited host TNF-alpha expression during infection via post-transcriptional repression. The LmGAPDH binding with the AU-rich elements 3'-untranslated region of mRNA (TNF-alpha ARE) is sufficient for limiting this cytokine production, but ARE residues are still unexplored. RNA electrophoretic mobility shift assay (REMSA) catalytic activity...

Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) domains are structurally conserved and present in numerous proteins throughout all branches of the phylogenetic tree. Although PAS domain-containing major players for adaptation to environmental stimuli both prokaryotic eukaryotic organisms, these types still uncharacterized trypanosomatid parasites, Trypanosome Leishmania In addition, PAS-containing phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) protein is literature. Here, we report a PGK (LmPAS-PGK) unicellular pathogen The modeled...

Recently, we described the PAS domain‐containing phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) from Leishmania major (LmPAS‐PGK) that shows acidic pH (5.5)‐dependent optimum catalytic activity. The domain of LmPAS‐PGK is expected to regulate PGK activity during catalysis, but mechanism regulation by at molecular level uncharacterized. In this work, have utilized full‐length, domain‐deleted, and mutant enzymes measure enzymatic in presence divalent cation various values. Catalytic measurement indicates Mg 2+...

The ChaC family of γ-glutamyl cyclotransferases is conserved throughout all Kingdoms and catalyzes the degradation GSH. So far, proteins in trypanosomal parasites are missing literature. Here, we report two members (LmChaC2a LmChaC2b) unicellular pathogen Leishmania. Activity measurements suggest that these catalyze GSH but no other peptides. Recombinant LmChaC2a protein shows ∼17-fold lower catalytic efficiency (kcat ∼ 0.9 s-1) than LmChaC2b 15 s-1), although they showed comparable Km...

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a well-known optical technique for detection of protein absorption or dielectric concentration on metal surface. In this study, we developed an angle-scanning SPR biosensor that accurately measures the amount mineralization using MC3T3-el cells without any damage to cells. Since there have been few accurate methods quantitatively measure osteogenesis, our results are compared with traditional method Alizarin red S staining. The result showed sensor much...
