CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Os genes sintÃticos das lectinas das algas marinhas vermelhas Hypnea musciformis (HML) e Bryothamnion triquetrum (BTL) foram clonados em diferentes vetores e transformados em diferentes cÃlulas bacterianas de expressÃo. As lectinas recombinantes foram obtidas a partir da fraÃÃo solÃvel das culturas bacterianas de Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami 2 (DE3) para rHML e BL21 (DE3) para rBTL. Os testes de hemaglutinaÃÃo mostraram que rHML e rBTL sÃo capazes de aglutinar eritrÃcitos de coelho tratados com diferentes enzimas proteolÃticas. As propriedades hemaglutinantes de rHML e de rBTL confirmam o enovelamento correto e o estado funcional das proteÃnas. A caracterizaÃÃo da especificidade de ligaÃÃo a carboidratos da HML, BTL e da rBTL por glycan array mostrou uma especificidade restrita por oligossacarÃdeos complexos contendo o nÃcleo de fucosilaÃÃo (α1-6), com uma preferÃncia particular por N-glicanos nÃo bisectados, bi e tri-antenados de cadeia curta. A presenÃa de Ãcido siÃlico na extreminada nÃo-redutora dos glicanos favorece o reconhecimento. Essa foi a primeira caracterizaÃÃo de lectinas de algas vermelhas por glycan array. Experimentos de STD-RMN com a BTL mostraram uma interaÃÃo com um octassacarÃdeo contendo o nÃcleo de fucosilaÃÃo (α1-6). A atividade tÃxica das lectinas selvagens e recombinantes foi avaliada contra Artemia sp. e contra cÃlulas de adenocarcinoma de pulmÃo (A549). Nos ensaios de citotoxicidade, HML, rHML, BTL e rBTL nÃo mostraram nenhuma toxicidade contra Artemia sp. e somente HML e rHML mostraram uma baixa toxicidade contra cÃlulas de adenocarcinoma de pulmÃo (A549). O primeiro cristal de rBTL foi obtido a um nÃvel de microescala com a ajuda de um robÃt de cristalizaÃÃo e difratou a 15 Ã de resoluÃÃo. / Synthetic genes from the red marine algae Hypnea musciformis (HML) and Bryothamnion triquetrum (rBTL) were cloned into differents vectors and transformed into several bacterial expression strains. The recombinant lectins were obtained from the soluble fraction of bacterial cultures using Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami 2 (DE3) strain for rHML and E. coli BL21 (DE3) strain for rBTL. Haemagglutination tests showed that rHML and rBTL are able to agglutinate rabbit erythrocytes with strong haemagglutination activity only after treatment with papain and trysine indicating that their ligands are not directly accessible at the cell surface. The haemagglutinating properties of rHML and rBTL confirm the correct folding and functional state of the proteins. A study of the specificity of these lectins by glycan array was conducted. HML, BTL and rBTL showed a restricted specificity for complex N-glycans with core (α1-6) fucose. A more detailed analysis of the specificity of these lectins showed a preference for non bisecting N-glycans, bi- and tri-antennary branching sugars with short chains. Addition of Sialic acid at the non-reducing end of N-glycans favors their recognition by the lectins. This is the first characterization of lectins from red algae by glycan array. An interaction between BTL and a core (α1-6) fucosylated octasaccharides was also observed by STD-NMR. The toxic activity of wild and recombinant lectins were evaluated against Artemia sp. and the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549). In cytotoxicity assays, HML, rHML, BTL and rBTL showed no toxicity against Artemia sp. Only HML and rHML showed a low cytotoxic activity against cell line (A549). The first crystal of rBTL was obtained in micro-scale level using a robot and diffracted at 15 Ã.
