Sequence Similarities Of Protein Kinase Substrates And Inhibitors With Immunoglobulins And Model Immunoglobulin Homologue: Cell Adhesion Molecule From The Living Fossil Sponge Geodia Cydonium. Mapping Of Coherent Database Similarities And Implications For Evolution Of Cdr1 And Hypermutation

Sequences of immunoglobulin (Ig) domains of adhesive molecule GSAMS from the living fossil sponge Geodia cydonium were compared with the important motif of peptide protein kinase substrates and inhibitors (PKSI), detail PKSI sequences, and a common template sequence, derived from structures determined previously. We found the site-restricted sequence similarities to these peptide sequences predominantly in the GSAM Ig1 domain of GSAMS in the domain region related to corresponding Ig similarities detected earlier. Additional sequence block-related analysis revealed the presence of CDR1-like segments within PKSI-related regions and resulted in the detection of increased numbers of hypermutation motifs just in the CDR1-like segment of GSAM Ig1 (GSAM(cdr1.1)). In the following database searches with PKSI-related regions and GSAM(cdr1.1) we looked for: (i) peptide similarities present in the context of Ig domains or related structures in a large range of species from Archaea to Vertebrata, and (ii) some special nucleotide similarities. © 2004 Institute of Microbiology, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.49321924

Ancient Phylogenetic Beginnings Of Immunoglobulin Hypermutation

Many structures and molecules closely related to those involved in the specific process of immunoglobulin (Ig) hypermutation existed before the appearance of primordial Ig genes. Consequently, these structures can be found even in animals and organisms distinct from vertebrates; likewise, homologues of hypermutation enzymes are present in a broad range of species, from bacteria to mammals. Our analysis, based predominantly on primary structure, demonstrates the existence of molecules similar to Ig domains, variable Ig domains (IGv), and antigen receptors (AR) in unicellular organisms, nonvertebrate metazoans, and nonvertebrate Coelomata, respectively. In addition, we deal here with some important structural properties of CDR1-like segments of the selected sponge adhesion molecule GCSAMS exhibiting chimerical Ig domain similarities, and demonstrate the occurrence of conserved regions corresponding to Ohno's modern intact primordial building block in the C-terminal part of IGv-related segments of nonvertebrate origin. The results of our analysis are also discussed with respect to the possible phylogeny of molecules preceding the hypothetical common antigen receptor ancestor. © 2006 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.635691706Altschul, S.F., Madden, T.L., Schaffer, A.A., Zhang, J., Zhang, Z., Miller, W., Lipman, D.J., Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: A new generation of protein database search programs (1997) Nucleic Acids Res, 25, pp. 3389-3402Azumi, K., De Santis, R., De Tomaso, A., Rigoutsos, I., Yoshizaki, F., Pinto, M.R., Marino, R., Nonaka, M., Genomic analysis of immunity in a Urochordate and the emergence of the vertebrate immune system: "Waiting for Godot."
