On the premise of the rigidity of protein-protein docking, by the method of molecular dynamic simulation, we search the protein-protein interface conformations of the complexes which grounded on the rigid docking. Since the interaction of the amino acid was taken into account, to a certain extent, the complex conformations are more perfect.展开更多
目的:探讨甲硫氨酸代谢相关基因在食管鳞状细胞癌(esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,ESCC)中的表达情况,研究甲硫氨酸和溶质载体家族43成员2(solute carrier family 43 member 2,SLC43A2)基因的表达对ESCC细胞迁移和侵袭的影响。方法...目的:探讨甲硫氨酸代谢相关基因在食管鳞状细胞癌(esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,ESCC)中的表达情况,研究甲硫氨酸和溶质载体家族43成员2(solute carrier family 43 member 2,SLC43A2)基因的表达对ESCC细胞迁移和侵袭的影响。方法:利用生物信息学分析ESCC组织与邻近正常组织的甲硫氨酸代谢关键基因的表达情况,Kaplan-Meier生存曲线分析其表达在ESCC患者预后中的价值;聚类分析揭示不同表达模式对ESCC患者总体生存期和肿瘤微环境的影响;富集分析寻找ESCC中与甲硫氨酸和SLC43A2基因紧密关联的生物学进程;免疫组织化学染色检测ESCC组织和邻近正常组织中SLC43A2蛋白的表达情况;RT-qPCR和Western blot法检测干扰ESCC细胞SLC43A2效率;Transwell实验检测甲硫氨酸限制(methionine restriction)或干扰SLC43A2后ESCC细胞迁移和侵袭能力。结果:大部分甲硫氨酸代谢相关通路中的关键酶和SLC43A2基因在ESCC肿瘤组织中高表达(P<0.05),并且这些差异基因的表达对ESCC患者的预后具有显著影响(P<0.05);聚类分析显示高表达SLC43A2基因的A簇患者预后差,肿瘤微环境中免疫细胞种类和数量显著低于B簇;富集分析显示高表达SLC43A2基因组中上皮间充质转化(epithelial-mesenchymal transition,EMT)通路信号分子显著富集(P<0.01)。此外,限制甲硫氨酸或敲减SLC43A2可抑制ESCC细胞的迁移和侵袭(P<0.01)。结论:ESCC组织中甲硫氨酸代谢活跃,SLC43A2基因在ESCC组织中高表达与患者不良预后相关,SLC43A2促进ESCC细胞迁移和侵袭。展开更多
