生物活性
p2Ca and QL9 peptides assume distinct conformations when bind to Ld and, furthermore, demonstrate that there is flexibility in peptide binding within the MHC class I cleft. Ld antigenic peptide p2Ca (LSPFPFDL) is 8-mer that lack the proline at position 2 and thus use alternative amino-terminal anchors. The p2Ca octamer is identified as the ligand that is naturally processed and presented to the Ld-alloreactive T cell clone, 2C[1]. p2Ca, is immunodominant in allorecognition of the murine MHC class I molecule H-2Ld. The majority of Ld-alloreactive T-cell clones are specific for Ld-p2Ca and this immunodominance is not due to peptide cross-reactivity[2]. p2Ca is a ubiquitously expressed self-peptide. p2Ca is derived from the mouse mitochondrial enzyme α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. p2Ca is present in every tissue of BALB/c mice that has been examined, including the spleen and thymus. It is also expressed by mouse tumor cell lines such as the mastocytoma P815. CTL derived in vitro recognize specifically the p2Ca/L d complex and use Vβ8 regions predominantly. The cultured cells lyse target cells with lower levels of p2Ca than the levels used for induction. This result suggests that it may be possible to use peptides at high concentrations to elicit CTL that react with endogenous levels of a peptide/class I complex[3].

溶剤 & 溶解度

Peptide Solubility and Storage Guidelines:
1. Calculate the length of the peptide.
2. Calculate the overall charge of the entire peptide according to the following table:
| Contents | Assign value | |
|---|---|---|
| Acidic amino acid | Asp (D), Glu (E), and the C-terminal -COOH. | -1 |
| Basic amino acid | Arg (R), Lys (K), His (H), and the N-terminal -NH2 | +1 |
| Neutral amino acid | Gly (G), Ala (A), Leu (L), Ile (I), Val (V), Cys (C), Met (M), Thr (T), Ser (S), Phe (F), Tyr (Y), Trp (W), Pro (P), Asn (N), Gln (Q) | 0 |
3. Recommended solution:
| Overall charge of peptide | Details |
|---|---|
| Negative (<0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, add NH4OH (<50 μL). 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide. |
| Positive (>0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO. |
| Zero (=0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2. For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration. |
プロトコル
Mice: The effectiveness of self-peptide treatment is evaluated using a syngeneic system with the BALB/c derived myeloma Sp2/0. B2 [an Ld transfectant of Sp2/0 (19)] is incubated for the indicated times with 3 or 30 μM p2Ca or without p2Ca. A binding assay with 125I-labeled anti-Ld antibody 28-14-8 is performed[3].
