玉米根尖细胞液泡膜结合的蛋白激酶的存在及其性质

为了解液泡膜蛋白在植物细胞信号途径中的功能 ,用新型的非放射性同位素方法从玉米根细胞的高纯度液泡膜上鉴定出一种膜内在的蛋白激酶。这种蛋白激酶具有Ca2 依赖、CaM和磷脂酰丝氨酸不依赖等特性 ,与已在多种植物中报道的含有类似钙调素结构域的蛋白激酶CDPK相似。离体实验表明其活性的最适pH值为 6 .5 ,最适Ca2 浓度为 1 0 μmol/L。从最适pH值和去污剂的影响可以推测出其活性位点朝向胞质一侧。Zn2 对其活性没有明显的抑制作用 ,说明该激酶缺少某些哺乳动物的蛋白激酶常含有的锌指结构。当液泡膜蛋白在Ca2 和ATP存在的条件下被预磷酸化后 ,液泡膜H _ATPase的ATP水解和质子转运过程均被激活。激活的活性可以被碱性磷酸酶逆转。以上结果说明玉米根尖细胞的液泡膜中存在一种可能是CDPK的蛋白激酶。由它造成的Ca2 依赖的磷酸化作用激活了液泡膜H _ATPase的活性。这些结果将有助于深入研究CDPK在植物细胞信号转导中的功能。

以盐生植物盐芥和中生植物拟南芥幼苗为材料,研究了盐胁迫对它们叶片和根质膜、液泡膜H+-ATPase、Ca2+-ATPases和K+-ATPase活性以及H+-ATPase、Na+/H+ 逆向转运蛋白表达的影响.结果显示:在NaCl胁迫下,盐芥叶片和根质膜的H+-ATPase活性分别比对照显著升高41%～212%和35%～53%,液泡膜的H+-ATPase分别显著升高281%～373%和4%～38%,而拟南芥却比相应对照都显著降低;相同盐浓度胁迫下,盐芥叶片的H+-ATPase活性比根部高4～8倍,盐芥根也远高于拟南芥.在NaCl胁迫下,盐芥叶片和根的液泡膜H+-ATPase蛋白质β亚基含量变化与其酶活性变化趋势一致,质膜Na+/H+ 逆向转运蛋白的表达量与Na+含量变化趋势一致.盐胁迫下盐芥根中Ca2+-ATPases和K+-ATPase活性的增加与根中Ca2+和K+含量呈显著正相关.研究发现,在盐胁迫条件下,盐芥能有效增强H+-ATPase蛋白和Na+/H+逆向转运蛋白表达,显著提高其根系与叶片质膜和液泡膜的H+-ATPase、Ca2+-ATPase和K+-ATPase活性,维持细胞质中较高的Ca2+和K+水平,从而缓解盐胁迫的伤害,增强耐盐性.     

NaCl胁迫下大麦根液泡膜H+-ATPase活性、离子吸收与钙的关系

NaCl胁迫2 d,耐盐大麦(Hordeum vulgare L.cv) ("滩引2号")根系液泡膜H+-ATPase活性增强,H+-PPase活性下降.以质膜Ca2+通道抑制剂La3+ (1 mmol/L)或Ca2+螯合剂EGTA (5 mmol/L)处理大麦幼苗,抑制了NaCl诱导的液泡膜H+-ATPase活性的增强,但提高了H+-PPase活性;用CaM拮抗剂三氟拉嗪(TFP,20 μmol/L)处理,也抑制了液泡膜H+-ATPase活性的增强.NaCl胁迫下,外加La3+,TFP或La3++TFP处理,使Na+吸收增加,K+和Ca2+吸收降低.结果表明,NaCl胁迫下,液泡膜H+-ATPase活性提高和离子吸收的变化可能与Ca-CaM系统有关.

植物液泡膜H -ATPase在建立跨液泡膜质子梯度、促进液泡Na 区域化、提高植物耐盐性方面发挥着重要作用.本实验从盐生植物盐地碱蓬(Suaeda salsa L.)cDNA文库分离到碱蓬叶片液泡膜H -ATPase B亚基cDNA克隆.测序表明该基因长达1 974 bp,开放阅读框有1 470 bp编码489个氨基酸,含有一个保守的ATP结合位点,其蛋白分子量约为54.29 kD.Northem及Western印迹表明盐地碱蓬液泡膜H -ATPase B亚基表达明显受NaCl胁迫诱导,并且在NaCl胁迫下,B亚基在转录及翻译水平上与液泡膜H -ATPase c亚基存在协同作用.盐胁迫下,盐地碱蓬液泡H -ATPase B亚基与c亚基的协同表达增加了液泡H -ATPase的数量,从而提高了液泡H -ATPase活性,为碱蓬叶片液泡Na 区域化提供了动力,最终提高了碱蓬植株的耐盐性.

低温、高pH胁迫对水稻幼苗根系质膜、液泡膜ATP酶活性的影响

以耐冷性不同的两个水稻品种为材料,比较研究了幼苗根系质膜、液泡膜ATP酶对低温(8℃)及高pH(8.0)胁迫的反应。结果表明水稻根细胞质膜和液泡膜上均存在Ca3+-ATP酶,但活性远低于H+-ATP酶。耐冷品种武育粳3号经低温(8℃)处理2d,根系质膜和液泡膜H+-ATP酶、Ca2+-ATP酶活性均明显升高,至冷处理12d,H+-ATP酶、Ca2+-ATP酶活性有所下降,但仍与对照相近;而冷敏感品种汕优63经低温(8℃)处理2d,根系质膜H+-ATP酶活性略有升高,而质膜Ca2+-ATP酶以及液泡膜H+-ATP酶、Ca2+-ATP酶活性已明显下降;至冷处理12d,4种酶活性均明显低于对照。高pH胁迫使质膜和液泡膜H+-ATP酶活性下降,而使Ca2+-ATP酶活性上升。高pH胁迫会加剧低温冷害。结果表明,耐冷品种质膜、液泡膜ATP酶比冷敏感品种对低温胁迫有更强的适应能力。

灵武长枣果实质膜和液泡膜H~+-ATPase和H~+-PPase活性与果实糖分积累

以不同发育时期灵武长枣(Ziziphus jujuba cv.Lingwuchangzao)的果实为材料,通过测定与分析果肉组织中细胞质膜、液泡膜H+-ATPase和H+-PPase活性、果实糖分含量变化,研究了灵武长枣果实质膜、液泡膜H+-ATPase和H+-PPase活性与糖积累特性的关系。结果表明:(1)果实第二次快速生长期之前主要积累葡萄糖和果糖,之后果实迅速积累蔗糖,葡萄糖和果糖含量则逐渐下降,成熟期果实主要积累蔗糖。(2)在果实发育的缓慢生长期S1,质膜H+-ATPase活性最低;第一次快速生长期,质膜H+-ATPase活性最高;缓慢生长期S2,其活性降低;第二次快速生长期,质膜H+-ATPase活性升至次高;完熟期,质膜H+-ATPase活性下降幅度较大。(3)在果实发育过程中,液泡膜H+-ATPase和H+-PPase活性的变化趋势相似。缓慢生长期S1,液泡膜H+-ATPase和H+-PPase活性较低;从缓慢生长期S1至第一次快速生长期缓慢下降至最低;从第一次快速生长期开始,液泡膜H+-ATPase和H+-PPase活性呈现为逐渐增高的变化趋势;除第二次快速生长期以外,液泡膜H+-PPase活性始终高于H+-ATPase。由此推测,质膜H+-ATPase和液泡膜H+-ATPase、H+-PPase对灵武长枣果实糖分的跨膜次级转运起到重要的调控作用。     

柠条Ca~(2+)-ATPase的性质及钙调素含量与抗旱性的关系

分离纯化旱生植物柠条的叶细胞质膜,测定其Ca2＋-ATPase的最适反应pH、最适反应温度、底物ATP和激活剂Ca2＋对酶活性的影响,并与中生植物小麦叶细胞质膜Ca2＋-ATPase的性质进行比较。实验表明柠条叶细胞质膜Ca2＋-ATPase的最适反应pH为7．5,最适反应温度为55℃,酶对ATP的Hill系数为0．94,符合米氏动力学类型,对Ca2＋的Hill系数为0．35,具有负协同作用。还测定了柠条和小麦叶片中及叶细胞质膜结合的钙调素含量,发现钙调素含量与植物的抗旱性成正相关。     

Studies on the Proton Pumping Activity of H+-ATPase in Tonoplast Vesicles of Populus euphratica

Tonoplast-enriched vesicles were prepared from suspension-cultured Populus euphratica Oliv. cells by differential centrifugation and discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The properties of the proton pumping activity of H+-ATPases in tonoplast vesicles were studied by acridine orange fluorescent quenching measured at 22 ℃. The proton pumping activity of ATPase was ATP-dependent with apparent Michaelis-Menten Constant (Km) for ATP about 0.65 mmol/L. The optimal pH for H+-ATPases activity was 7.5. The proton pumping activity of H+-ATPase could be initiated by some divalent cations, Mg2+ being highly efficient, much more than Fe2+; and Ca2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ were inefficient under the experimental condition. The proton translocation could be stimulated by halide anions, with potencies decreasing in the order Cl-> Br->I->F-. The proton pumping activity was greatly inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), NO-3 and Bafilomycin A1, but not by orthovanadate and azide. These results demonstrated that the H+-ATPase in the tonoplast of Populus euphratica belonged to vacuolar type ATPase. This work was the first time that tonoplast-enriched vesicles were isolated from Populus euphratica cells.     

A novel chloride channel in Vicia faba guard cell vacuoles activated by the serine/threonine kinase, CDPK.

Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinases (CDPKs) in higher plants contain a C-terminal calmodulin-like regulatory domain. Little is known regarding physiological CDPK targets. Both kinase activity and multiple Ca2+-dependent signaling pathways have been implicated in the control of stomatal guard cell movements. To determine whether CDPK or other protein kinases could have a role in guard cell signaling, purified and recombinant kinases were applied to Vicia faba guard cell vacuoles during patch-clamp experiments. CDPK activated novel vacuolar chloride (VCL) and malate conductances in guard cells. Activation was dependent on both Ca2+ and ATP. Furthermore, VCL activation occurred in the absence of Ca2+ using a Ca2+-independent, constitutively active, CDPK* mutant. Protein kinase A showed weaker activation (22% as compared with CDPK). Current reversals in whole vacuole recordings shifted with the Nernst potential for Cl-and vanished in glutamate. Single channel recordings showed a CDPK-activated 34 +/- 5 pS Cl- channel. VCL channels were activated at physiological potentials enabling Cl- uptake into vacuoles. VCL channels may provide a previously unidentified, but necessary, pathway for anion uptake into vacuoles required for stomatal opening. CDPK-activated VCL currents were also observed in red beet vacuoles suggesting that these channels may provide a more general mechanism for kinase-dependent anion uptake.     

The plasma-membrane H+-ATPase from beet root is inhibited by a calcium-dependent phosphorylation

Several plasma-membrane proteins from beet root (Beta vulgaris L.) have been functionally incorporated into reconstituted proteoliposomes. These showed H⁺-ATPase activity, measured both as ATP hydrolysis and H⁺ transport. The proton-transport specific activity was 10 times higher than in plasma membranes, and was greatly stimulated by potassium and valinomycin. These proteoliposomes also showed calcium-regulated protein kinase activity. This kinase activity is probably due to a calmodulin-like domain protein kinase (CDPK), since two protein bands were recognized by antibodies against soybean and Arabidopsis CDPK. This kinase phosphorylated histone and syntide-2 in a Ca²⁺-dependent manner. Among the plasma-membrane proteins phosphorylated by this kinase, was the H⁺-ATPase. When the H⁺-ATPase was either prephosphorylated or assayed in the presence of Ca²⁺, both the ATP-hydrolysis and the proton-transport activities were slower. This inhibition was reversed by an alkaline-phosphatase treatment. A trypsin treatment (that has been reported to remove the C-terminal autoinhibitory domain from the H⁺-ATPase) also reversed the inhibition caused by phosphorylation. These results indicate that a Ca²⁺-dependent phosphorylation, probably caused by a CDPK, inhibits the H⁺-ATPase activities. The substrate of this regulatory phosphorylation could be the H⁺-ATPase itself, or a different protein influencing the ATPase activities. Received: 1 May 1997 / Accepted: 25 June 1997     

Changes in Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinase Activity during in Vitro Tuberization in Potato

A soluble Ca2+-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) was purified to homogeneity in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants. Potato CDPK was strictly dependent on Ca2+ (one-half maximal activation 0.6 [mu]M) and phosphorylated a wide diversity of substrates, in which Syntide 2 was the best phosphate acceptor (Michaelis constant = 30 [mu]M). The kinase was inhibited by Ca2+-chelating agents, phenotiazine derivatives, and N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (one-half maximal inhibition = 0.25 mM). Polyclonal antibodies directed against the regulatory region of the soybean CDPK recognized a 53-kD polypeptide. In an autophosphorylation assay, this same band was strongly labeled with [[gamma]-32P]ATP in the presence of Ca2+. CDPK activity was high in nontuberized plants, but increased 2.5-fold at the onset of tuber development and was reduced to one-half of its original activity when the tuber had completed formation. In the early stages of tuberization, Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous targets (specific bands of 68, 51, and 46 kD) was observed. These polypeptides were not labeled in nontuberizing plants or in completely formed tubers, indicating that this phosphorylation is a stage-specific event. In addition, dephosphorylation of specific polypeptides was detected in tuberizing plants, suggesting the involvement of a phosphatase. Preincubation of crude extracts with phosphatase inhibitors rendered a 100% increase in CDPK activity.     

Anion-sensitive ATPase activity and proton transport in isolated vacuoles of species of the CAM genus Kalanchoë

Vacuoles were isolated from leaves of Kalanchoë daigremontiana Hamet et Perrier de la Bathie, and the ionic sensitivity of the vacuolar ATPase was studied in vacuole homogenates desalted on Sephadex G-25. The ATPase activity was dependent on the presence of divalent cations (Mg²⁺≥ Mn²⁺≥ Ca²⁺, Co²⁺; Zn²⁺ had no effect). Mg²⁺-dependent ATPase activity was stimulated by anions (Cl^? > malate²⁺, HCO^?₃), with maximal stimulation at concentrations above 50 mM. Mg²⁺-Dependent activity was inhibited by NO^?₃ above 2 mM, but no saturation was observed up to 100 mM. No stimulation by K⁺ or Na⁺ was detected; stimulation by NH⁺₄ was abolished by 0.01% (w/v) Triton X-100, suggesting that the NH⁺₄ effect was due to the permeability of vacuolar membrane vesicles to NH₃. Trans-tonoplast electrical potentials (Δψ) and intra-vacuolar pH were measured with glass microelectrodes and antimony covered glass micro-pH-electrodes, respectively. Free vacuofes isolated from Kalanchoë tubiflora (Harv.) Hamet were slightly positive with respect to the suspension medium. This Δψ was insensitive to the protonophore FCCP and depolarized by about 4 mV on addition of 50 mM KCl, still remaining about +5 mV. Upon addition of 7 mM Mg-ATP, vacuoles showed an FCCP-sensitive increase of Δψ from +9.2 ± 2.8 (13) to +17.8 ± 3.7 (12) mV [given as x?± sd (n)] and an internal acidification from pH 5.4 ± 0.2 (11) to pH 4.3 ± 0.4 (12). Mg-ADP and ATP without Mg²⁺ had no effect on Δψ. It is concluded that the H4 pumping at the tonoplast is due to the functioning of the anion-sensitive vacuolar ATPase and that this is an essential part of the mechanism of nocturnal acid accumulation in CAM.     

Voltage sensitivity of H+/Ca2+ antiport in higher plant tonoplast suggests a role in vacuolar calcium accumulation

The electrogenicity of H+/Ca2+ exchange in vacuolar membrane (tonoplast) vesicles from Beta was studied to elucidate the role of this transport system in vacuolar Ca2+ accumulation. To overcome the inherently high proton permeability of tonoplast vesicles, the pH difference established by the primary H(+)-ATPase was titrated to a uniform value by variation of the concentration either of ATP or of a permanent anion (Cl-). This enabled manipulation of membrane potential independently of the transmembrane pH difference, with a higher inside-positive membrane potential produced at lower Cl- concentrations. The rate and the extent of uncoupler-sensitive Ca2+ uptake are both stimulated about 2-fold in conditions of more positive membrane potential, suggesting that the transport system translocates positive charge outward during Ca2+ uptake. A minimum integral H+:Ca2+ stoichiometry of 3 results in a driving force for Ca2+ accumulation in the vacuole amounting to -140 mV in typical physiological conditions. It is concluded that the antiporter is thermodynamically competent to account for Ca2+ accumulation in plant vacuoles and that its reversal in vivo is unlikely.     

ATPase与植物抗盐性

本文综述了高等植物细胞ATPase在盐胁迫下的活性变化及其调控机制。V型H+_ATPase与细胞离子区隔化和植物抗盐性密切相关。盐胁迫提高抗盐植物液泡膜H+_ATPase活性,主要是通过增加V型H+_ATPase主要功能亚基的基因表达以及蛋白质合成。盐胁迫通常降低质膜H+-ATPase活性,很可能是由于酶蛋白质合成受阻,质膜H+-ATPase活性的变化与盐胁迫的强度和时间长短有关。此外,本文还对ABA和Ca2+-CaM等胁迫信号物质对ATPase活性的调控及其与植物抗盐性的关系进行了总结。研究ATPase对盐胁迫的响应和调控机制,有助于阐明植物的盐生境适应机制,也有利于植物的抗盐育种工作。     

NaCl胁迫下大麦根系液泡膜H+-ATPase活性与膜流动性的关系

用50～200 mmol/L NaCl处理2 d后,大麦(Hordeum vulgare L.)品种"滩引2号"(耐盐性强)根的液泡膜H+-ATPase活性增强,600 mmol/L NaCl处理下酶活性下降;"科品7号"(耐盐性弱)在50～100 mmol/L NaCl处理2 d后根的液泡膜H+-ATPase活性增强,200～600 mmol/L NaCl处理下酶活性随盐浓度增加而降低.50～200 mmol/L NaCl处理下"滩引2号"根的液泡膜流动性下降,600 mmol/L NaCl处理下膜流动性明显增大;盐胁迫下液泡膜膜脂脂肪酸不饱和度下降时,膜流动性下降,反之则膜流动性上升.由此推断高盐胁迫下液泡膜膜脂脂肪酸不饱和度上升而引起膜流动性上升可能是引起H+-ATPase活性下降的原因之一.     

Effects of Calcium on Absorption and Distribution of Ions and H+-ATPase Activity in Barley and Wheat Under Salt Stress

Calcium decreased Na+ absorption and transportation to the shoots,increased K+ and Ca2+ absorption and transportation ,decreased the leakage of electrolyties,and increased the accumulation of dry matter in barley and wheat seedlings under NaC1 stress. Calcium ion promoted the H+-ATPase activities in plasma membrane and tonoplast vesicles isolated from the young roots of the two plants, and increased respiration of the roots. This is in consistent with the results that calcium regulates ion absorption and distribution via its enhancement of H+-ATPase activities in plasma membrane and tonoplast.     

Vacuolar H+/Ca2+ transport: who's directing the traffic?

Physiological studies have established the role of plant high-capacity vacuolar H+/Ca2+ exchange activity in ion homeostasis and signal transduction. The molecular characterization and structure-function analyses of these transporters are just beginning to emerge. In yeast, Ca2+ signaling molecules regulate vacuolar H+/Ca2+ exchange. Recently, some of the Ca2+ dependent "molecular relay" molecules have been characterized in plants; however, the regulation of plant vacuolar H+/Ca2+ exchange remains an open question.
