What you need to know!
2006年Tjalsma通过Highly accurate tandem MS方法,找到了一种蛋白Histone-like protein A(HlpA),发现它联系Streptococcus bovis和结直肠癌的桥梁,并推测S.bovis正是通过HlpA与结直肠癌细胞表面的heparan sulfate-proteoglycans(HSPG)结合,介导的S.bovis定植于结直肠癌[1]。
2009年Boleij证明了Streptococcus gallolyticus通过HlpA于结直肠癌细胞表面的HSPG结合[2]。
2016年O'Neil得到了Hlp的晶体结构,指示Hlp为类似蟹钳的结构,钳子部分的碱性氨基酸可以与DNA结合,同时也可以与肝素结合[3]。
2018年Chun Loong Ho利用HlpA与HSPG的结合,构建了一种可以靶向结直肠癌的工程大肠杆菌,拉开了HlpA靶向系统的序幕[4]。
2022年iGEM22_LZU-CHINA 团队,通过合成生物学构建了靶向结直肠癌的大肠杆菌,方法为HlpA靶向肿瘤细胞表面的HSPG[5]。
2023年Tang构建了利用HlpA靶向,Azurin杀伤的工程益生菌,并在结直肠癌小鼠中展现出不错的疗效[6]。
HlpA(Histone-like protein A)正如其名,它能和组蛋白一样结合DNA。它整体形态如同一个蟹钳,能够利用其丝带般的β折叠区与DNA小沟非特异性紧密结合,which leads to significant DNA bending, DNA compaction and negative supercoiling。而S.boivs会通过一种未知的机制将其分泌出胞外,作为anchorless protein,是感染时体液免疫系统的靶标,通过连接细菌lipoteichoic acid(LTA)和结肠上皮细胞上的HSPG介导细菌粘附于结肠肿瘤细胞。
What is it?
Here is the structure of HlpA monomer and homodimer.
Two helical segments from each monomeric subunit constitute an α-helical ‘body’ with two protruding β-ribbon ‘arms’ , which extend to bind the DNA helix. These DNA-binding β-ribbons are largely disordered in the absence of DNA
