Peptídeos antimicrobianos são importantes componentes do sistema imune de vertebrados e invertebrados. Neste trabalho purificamos e caracterizamos quatro moléculas presentes na hemolinfa da aranha Acanthoscurria gomesiana: 1) theraphosinina, peptídeo de 4052,5 Da purificado do plasma, apresenta atividade anti-Micrococcus luteus e não apresenta similaridade com outros peptídeos. A partir dos hemócitos foram purificados: 2) mygalomorphina, um peptídeo de 415,9 Da com atividade anti-Escherichia coli. Sua atividade está relacionada à produção de H2O2 pois é inibida por catalase; 3) gomesina, um peptídeo de 2270,4 Da que apresenta alta similaridade com taquiplesinas e protegrinas. Apresenta amplo espectro de atividade contra bactérias, leveduras, fungos e Leishmania; 4) acanthoscurrina, um peptídeo rico em glicina, que apresenta duas isoformas com 10132,4 e 10249,1Da. Este peptídeo tem atividade contra E. coli e Candida albicans e apresenta grande similaridade com proteinas antifúngicas de insetos e também com proteínas relacionadas com a defesa em plantas. / Antimicrobial peptides are important components of the vertebrates and invertebrates immune system. In this work we purified and characterized four molecules from Acanthoscurria gomesiana spider hemolimph: 1) theraphosinin, a 4,052.5 Da peptide purified from plasma with anti-Micrococcus luteus activity. It does not show similarity with any other invertebrate immune peptides. From the hemocytes three peptides have been purified: 2) mygalomorphin, a peptide with 415.9 Da, which shows anti-Escherichia coli activity. This activity is inhibited by catalase, therefore it may be, related to the H2O2 production; 3) gomesin, a peptide with 2,270.4 Da, that shows high similarity with tachyplesins and protegrins. It have large activity spectrum against bacteria, yeast, fungi and Leishmania; 4) acanthoscurrin, a glycine-rich peptide that shows two isoforms of 10,132.4 and 10,249.1 Da. This peptide has activity against E. coli and Candida albicans and shows high similarity with antifungal proteins of insects and plants defense proteins.

Analýza pohlavných chromozómov a repetitívne usporiadaných génov u vybraných vtáčkarovitých a araneomorfných pavúkov / Analysis of sex chromosomes and gene clusters in selected mygalomorph and araneomorph spiders

Pappová, Michaela January 2019 (has links)
1 Abstract: The diploma thesis focuses on study of sex chromosomes evolution and repetitive organized genes of chosen mygalomorph and araneomorph spiders. Spiders are characterized by complexicity of sex chromosome systems, their karyotypes contain multiple sex chromosomes X. Besides multiple X chromosomes they also contain a pair or two pairs of nondiferentiated sex chromosomes X and Y. The used methods include methods of classical cytogenetics (preparation of chromosome slides, C-banding) and methods of molecular cytogenetics (fluorescent in situ hybridization and comparative genome hybridization). Complex sex systems were discovered in the studied Theraphosidae spiders. In Theraphosidae spiders Atropothele socotrana and Poecilotheria vittata neo-sex chromosomes were found. Analysis of molecular differentiation of sex chromosomes suggests low differentiation of Y chromosome in neo-sex chromosomes and pair of nondifferentiated sex chromosomes XY. In haplogyne spider Kukulcania aff. hibernalis (X1X2Y), the Y chromosome was significantly differentiated, male specific signal covered the whole chromosome. Detection of 18S rDNA showed that karyotypes of majority of analysed Theraphosidae spiders and haplogyne spiders contain low number (1 or 2) of nucleolar organizing regions localized terminally, which...
