Description

People's cholesteryl ester synthetic enzyme-2c and encoding sequence thereof
Invention field
The present invention relates to biological chemistry, molecular biology, genetically engineered and DNA recombinant technology field.More specifically, relate to people's cholesteryl ester synthetic enzyme-2c (ACAT2c) and encoding sequence thereof and their application.
Background technology
People's cholesteryl ester synthetic enzyme is a human acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT; Acy1-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase; EC2.3.1.26), be the enzyme that interior unique catalysis longer chain fatty acid of people's cell and free cholesterol form cholesteryl ester.ACAT brings into play the important physical function in vivo, mainly participates in organism cholesterol and processes such as the absorption of ester class, transportation and storage thereof, is one of key enzyme of keeping body inner cholesterol and ester class metabolic balance thereof.Studies show that in a large number that both at home and abroad it is high reactivity ground synthetic cholesterol ester in scavenger cell, cause the excessive accumulation of cell inner cholesterol ester and form foam cell, cause atherosclerosis (AS) early lesion; Its activity cholesterol amount in the cytolemma that can affect the nerves, and directly regulate the generation a, relevant with senile dementia lesion (AD); Its activity change in liver, intestinal cells can directly influence the absorption of synthetic cholesterol ester, cholesterol, the assembling of lipoprotein, and is until blood levels that influences cholesterol and blood transhipment, directly related with hypercholesterolemia ester disease; And the absorption of chronic dietary source cholesterol lacks, and causes serious disease equally, as child, the dementia in old age etc.Therefore, it is epochmaking cholesterol metabolic relative disease drug target protein, in the world the main attack target protein of ACAT as development atherosclerosis pathology medicine.But ACAT is again the extremely low a kind of endoplasmic reticulum membranin of content, even long-term a large amount of people, the material resources etc. of dropping into of many in the world laboratories or company are studied, fails its natural type zymoprotein of purifying so far.So, carry out the work of gene level, to mechanism of action and the structure function of further investigation ACAT and with the relation of relative disease, seem very important, be present unique practicable approach.
In Mammals, find to have two kinds of different ACAT genes of coding ACAT1 and ACAT2 at present.1993, the people ACAT1 cDNA (4011bp) with active function was cloned in U.S. Dartmouth medical college Chang TY laboratory first, 550 aminoacid sequence (Chang TY et al. of its open reading frame coding, 1993, J.Biol.Chem., 268:20747-20755).1996, the experiment of mouse ACAT1 gene knockout was successfully carried out in the R.V.Farese laboratory of Univ California-San Francisco USA, and analyzed and find in liver and small intestine, still had strong ACAT enzymic activity, inferred the ACAT that has another kind of form thus.From Computer Analysis ACAT conserved sequence, 1998, three tame laboratories were cloned cercopithecus aethiops (Anderson RA et al., 1998 respectively, J.Biol.Chem., 273:26747-26754), mouse (Cases S et al., 1998, J.Biol.Chem., 273:26755-26764) and people (0elkers P et al., 1998, J.Biol.Chem., ACAT2 cDNA 273:26765-26771).People ACAT2 cDNA is about 2040bp, 522 amino acid of its open reading frame coding.ACAT1 almost expresses in a organized way in institute, and ACAT2 have high expression level in liver and small intestine.Therefore, assembling and secretion that ACAT2 is considered to mainly to participate in the absorption of diet source cholesterol and contains the ApoB lipophorin, blood levels and blood direct and cholesterol are transported close association.
1999, the structure organization of people ACAT1 genomic dna is cooperated to have delivered with Chang TY laboratory in the contriver laboratory, and finder ACAT1mRNA sequence comes from two different karyomit(e)s (Li Bo-Liang et al., J.Biol.Chem. respectively, 1999,274:11060-11071).Simultaneously, the contriver has carried out researchs such as people ACAT2 genomic dna structure organization again.In liver, intestinal cells, the contriver finds also to have another kind of ACAT2c cDNA form abroad except identical with the ACAT2 cDNA that is about 2040bp (systematic naming method is ACAT2a cDNA) that delivers of going together.The various ways of ACAT2 exists, and shows the importance and the complicacy of this gene function.
Change along with Chinese people's growth in the living standard and dietary structure, cardiovascular disorder and neural transformation disease more and more become the important killer who threatens people's life and health, and the research of massive epidemiology and molecular level has proved that these diseases and organism inner cholesterol level are closely related.Because ACAT has played keying action in cholesterol balance and the incidence of atherosclerosis process in vivo, the special inhibitor that therefore screens ACAT becomes the focus that some drugmakers are competitively studied.Because the ACAT albumen of natural form does not also have the purifying success, it is also very difficult therefore to seek the special effective inhibitors of ACAT.Increasing scientist and medical major company have participated in the research in this field both at home and abroad.Especially study the scientific research brainstrust of cardiovascular disorder, special hope can be screened the cardiovascular disease treating medicine of invention at atherosclerosis ACAT.Current paper is thought, the ACAT2 of liver, intestinal cells specifically expressing participates in the absorption of external source cholesterol and the assembling of lipoprotein, directly influence cholesterol levels in the blood, and be the medicine of effect target protein with ACAT2, can in control body's cholesterol level, not destroy intracellular cholesterol balance again, so the research of ACAT2 more and more is subject to people's attention.
