Background: Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIases) enzyme plays a vital role in protein folding. It catalyses the cis-trans isomerisation of peptide bonds, an essential step for newly synthesized protein to acquire its correct functional conformation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Objective: The present study showed the biochemical and molecular characterisation of cyclophilins (PpiB), a type of peptidyl-prolyl isomerases proteins from the pathogenic bacteria Salmonella Typhimurium.
Methods: Salmonella Typhimurium is one of the leading serovars responsible for human and animal salmonellosis globally, with the majority of human cases originating through the food chain. Here successful expression and purification of PpiB protein have been demonstrated and LC-MS based analyses showed high protein score and similarity with other PPi protein. Further the enzymatic activity of the purified recombinant PpiB was determined using Succinyl-Ala-Phe-Pro- Phe-p nitroanilide as substrate and enzyme-catalysed reaction.
Result: Km and Vmax were calculated and found to be Vm = 1.023 ± .06400 min/μg, Km = 0.6219 ± 0.1701 μM, respectively. We have reported for the first time the presence of Salmonella PPIase-B (PpiB) protein isoforms in salmonella genome having PPi activity.
Conclusion: Taken together, our data clearly showed that Salmonella Cyclophilin B (PpiB) protein is active and involved in diverse biological processes and highly similar to the different domain of Cyclophilin proteins.

Pathological deposition and crosslinking of collagen type I by activated myofibroblasts drives progressive tissue fibrosis. Therapies that inhibit collagen synthesis have potential as antifibrotic agents. We identify the collagen chaperone cyclophilin B as a major cellular target of the natural product sanglifehrin A (SfA) using photoaffinity labeling and chemical proteomics.

Global substitution of leucine for analogues containing CHF instead of methyl groups delivers proteins with multiple sites for monitoring by F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The 19 kDa peptidyl-prolyl isomerase B (PpiB) was prepared with uniform high-level substitution of leucine by (2,4)-5-fluoroleucine, (2,4)-5-fluoroleucine, or 5,5'-difluoroleucine. The stability of the samples toward thermal denaturation was little altered compared to the wild-type protein.

Unlabelled: Cyclophilin B (CypB), a significant member of immunophilins family with peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity, is crucial for the growth and metabolism of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Sporothrix globosa (S. globosa), a principal pathogen in the Sporothrix complex, causes sporotrichosis.

Genome editing with CRISPR RNA-guided endonucleases generates DNA breaks that are resolved by cellular DNA repair machinery. However, analogous methods to manipulate RNA remain unavailable. We show that site-specific RNA breaks generated with type-III CRISPR complexes are repaired in human cells and that this repair can be used for programmable deletions in human transcripts to restore gene function.
