Description

Hirudinaria manillensis antibacterial peptide RK22, precursor protein thereof and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of functional peptides, and particularly relates to a Hirudinaria manillensis antibacterial peptide RK22, a precursor protein thereof and application thereof.
Background
Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus aureus, s.aureus) is a gram-positive bacterium with a carrier rate of between 20-30% in healthy people, which can infect almost all host tissues, leading to serious morbidity and mortality. Staphylococcus aureus activates coagulation, and bacterial surface proteins and exotoxins promote thrombosis through the action on coagulation pathways and anticoagulation factors, which are important causes of exacerbation and even death of patients. Antibiotics have been the main therapeutic agents of staphylococcus aureus. However, due to the phenomenon of antibiotic abuse, more and more clinical strains of antibiotic resistance are present. Among them, methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is called "superbacteria", and studies by the world health organization indicate that MRSA infected persons have a mortality rate that is 64% higher than other bacteria. The antibacterial peptide has high-efficiency and rapid sterilization capability (the time for killing bacteria of most antibacterial peptides is less than 1 minute) which is far less than that of the traditional antibiotics (the time for killing bacteria of most antibiotics is more than 3 hours), so that the rapid sterilization characteristic makes the antibacterial peptide difficult to cause the drug resistance of microorganisms, and therefore, the antibacterial peptide becomes an ideal substitute for the antibiotics.
Animal toxins are an important source of antimicrobial peptide molecules, and the environment in which leeches live and the blood sucking process of the leeches are inevitably infected by microorganisms. With advances in bioinformatics, molecular biology, etc., a variety of novel antimicrobial peptide molecules have been identified successively from salivary glands of theromoyzonatosum, hirudo medicinalis, whereas antimicrobial peptide molecules have not been identified in saliva of Poecilobdella manillensis.

Then washing the red blood cells with physiological saline for 3 times, and no longer showing red color on the supernatant; the erythrocytes were resuspended in physiological saline, and a 10% suspension of erythrocytes was prepared. Thereafter, 96-well plates were prepared, each well containing 100. Mu.l of RK22 solution of varying concentration and 100.

Effect of the antibacterial peptide RK22 on the coagulation System
The coagulation system consists of a coagulation cascade and platelets, and the excessive activation of the coagulation system induced by staphylococcus aureus infection and thus the generation of thrombus are main causes for death of patients, so that the influence of the antibacterial peptide RK22 on the coagulation cascade and the platelet activation is detected, and the specific experimental method is as follows: (1) Effect of RK22 on thrombin and FXa Activity: in a 96-well plate, 5 μl of thrombin (0.1056 μg/ml) or FXa (3 μg/ml) solution was added to each well, then 5 μl of RK22 solution or LL-37 solution was added respectively, the final concentrations were 1000nM, 200nM and 40nM respectively, incubation was performed at room temperature for 10min, physiological saline was used as a negative control, LL-37 (delegated to be synthesized by GL Biochemical Co (Shanghai China Co., sequence LLGDFFRKSKEKIGKEFKRIVQRIKDFLRNLVPRTES) was used as a positive control; each well was added with 90. Mu.l of a substrate solution of thrombin (S-223845. Mu.g/ml) or FXa (S-222290. Mu.g/ml) dissolved in an enzyme kinetic buffer, and the 96-well plate was immediately placed in a microplate reader, and absorbance was read every 1min at 405nm for 90min.
(2) Effect of RK22 on platelet activation: taking blood from eyeballs of mice, mixing whole blood of each mouse with 800 mu l of desk type A liquid, and centrifuging 150g of the mixture for 10min by a horizontal rotor centrifuge at room temperature; taking the supernatant, and centrifuging for 5min at room temperature by a 400g angle rotor centrifuge. Discarding the supernatant, and re-suspending the sediment by using table A solution; discarding the supernatant, and re-suspending and diluting the sediment to a required volume by using table type B liquid for later use; to the isolated platelets, 1. Mu.g/ml of anti-CD 62P-PE was added, and after incubation for 10min, RK22 and LL-37 were added at different concentrations (20, 10, 5, 2.5. Mu.g/ml), respectively, and the blank was added with an equal amount of physiological saline, and the proportion of positive platelets was detected by flow cytometry after 1h, each of 50000 cells was detected.
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, RK22 does not have significantly enhanced thrombin and FXa activity or induce platelet activation compared to the endogenous antimicrobial peptide LL-37, and therefore RK22 has better safety than the endogenous antimicrobial peptide LL-37.
Example 9
Acute toxicity of antibacterial peptide RK22
Acute toxicity of RK22 was tested by the following experiment: mice were divided into 3 groups, RK22 low dose group: tail vein injection of 200 μl RK22 (20 mg/kg), RK22 high dose group: tail vein injection of 200 μl RK22 (40 mg/kg), blank control: the tail vein was injected with an equal amount of physiological saline, 8 per group.
