چکیده انگلیسی
Pierisin-like proteins comprise a growing family of ADP-ribosyltransferases expressed in various species of white butterflies. The prototype pierisin-1 from the cabbage butterfly, Pieris rapae, was identified as a potent apoptosis-inducing agent, acting on various types of carcinoma cell lines by mono-ADP-ribosylation of DNA. The characterization of pierisin-like proteins is hampered by its potent toxicity, which prevents its expression as a recombinant protein in Escherichia coli. Here we characterized a new member of the pierisin protein family named pierisin-1b, which was cloned from P. rapae. Pierisin-1b consists of 849 amino acids residues and shares 63%-91% identity with already described pierisins. For expression of pierisin-1b a novel in vitro translation system was utilized. Obtained protein exhibits specific ADP-ribosyltransferase activity on deoxyguanosine residues of DNA leading to induction of apoptosis and cell death.
