A single sulfur substitution for either the axial or the equatorial exocyclic oxygen of adenosine cyclic 3', 5'-phosphate (cAMP) results in diastereometric phosphorothioate analogs of cAMP with agonist versus antagonist properties towards activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Sulfur substitutions for both of the exocyclic oxygens of cAMP results in a dithioate analog of cAMP, adenosine cyclic 3', 5'-phosphorodithioate (cAMPS2), which has antagonist properties. cAMPS2 displaced [3H]cAMP from the binding sites on bovine heart Type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase as demonstrated by equilibrium dialysis experiments with an apparent Kd of 6.3 microM. The addition of 10, 30, or 100 microM cAMPS2 when measuring cAMP-induced activation of pure porcine heart Type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in the amount of cAMP required to produce half-maximal activation (EC50). A plot of the EC50 values as a function of the cAMPS2 concentration resulted in a straight line from which a KI value of 4 microM was derived. cAMPS2 had no significant effect on the degree of cooperativity (n) of cAMP activation of the holoenzyme. These data suggest that the most important structural requirement for the dissociation of the holoenzyme is an equatorial exocyclic oxygen. 相似文献

Although multiple regulatory elements and protein factors are known to regulate the non-neuronal pathway of alternative processing of the calcitonin/calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pre-mRNA, the mechanisms controlling the neuron-specific pathway have remained elusive. Here we report the identification of Fox-1 and Fox-2 proteins as novel regulators that mediate the neuron-specific splicing pattern. Fox-1 and Fox-2 proteins function to repress exon 4 inclusion, and this effect depends on two UGCAUG elements surrounding the 3' splice site of the calcitonin-specific exon 4. In neuron-like cells, mutation of a subset of UGCAUG elements promotes the non-neuronal pattern in which exon 4 is included. In HeLa cells, overexpression of Fox-1 or Fox-2 protein decreases exon 4 inclusion. Fox-1 and Fox-2 proteins interact with the UGCAUG elements specifically and regulate splicing by blocking U2AF(65) binding to the 3' splice site upstream of exon 4. We further investigated the inter-relationship between the UGCAUG silencer elements and the previously identified intronic and exonic splicing regulatory elements and found that exon 4 is regulated by an intricate balance of positive and negative regulation. These results define a critical role for Fox-1 and Fox-2 proteins in exon 4 inclusion of calcitonin/CGRP pre-mRNA and establish a regulatory network that controls the fate of exon 4. 相似文献

Amplification of DNA fragments surrounding rare restriction sites (ADSRRS-fingerprinting) is a novel assay based on suppression of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This phenomenon allows the amplification of only a limited subset of DNA fragments, since only those with two different oligonucleotides ligated at the ends of complementary DNA strands are amplified in the PCR. The DNA fragments can be easily analyzed on polyacrylamide gels, stained with ethidium bromide. We have implemented this method using a set of clinical Serratia marcescens isolates from three outbreaks ongoing in the Public Hospital in Gdańsk (Poland). Clustering of ADSRRS-fingerprinting data matched epidemiological, microbiological, random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) data. Based on this study, we found that there is at least a similar power of discrimination between the present 'gold-standard' PFGE and the novel method, ADSRRS-fingerprinting. Although the ADSRRS-fingerprinting method may appear to be more complex than the RAPD technique, we found it fast and reproducible. 相似文献

The cell type-specific alternative splicing of FGFR2 pre-mRNA results in the mutually exclusive use of exons IIIb and IIIc, which leads to critically important differences in receptor function. The choice of exon IIIc in mesenchymal cells involves activation of this exon and repression of exon IIIb. This repression is mediated by the function of upstream and downstream intronic splicing silencers (UISS and DISS). Here we present a detailed characterization of the determinants of silencing function within UISS and DISS. We used a systematic mutational analysis, introducing deletions and substitutions to define discrete elements within these two silencers of exon IIIb. We show that UISS requires polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTB)-binding sites, which define the UISS1 sub-element, and an eight nucleotide sequence 5'-GCAGCACC-3' (UISS2) that is also required. Even though UISS2 does not bind PTB, the full UISS can be replaced with a synthetic silencer designed to provide optimal PTB binding. DISS is composed of a 5'-conserved sub-element (5'-CE) and two regions that contain multiple PTB sites and are functionally redundant (DISS1 and DISS2). DISS1 and DISS2 are separated by the activator sequence IAS2, and together these opposing elements form the intronic control element. Deletion of DISS in the FGFR2 exon IIIb context resulted in the near full inclusion of exon IIIb, and insertion of this silencer downstream of a heterologous exon with a weak 5' splice site was capable of repressing exon inclusion. Extensive deletion analysis demonstrated that the majority of silencing activity could be mapped to the conserved octamer CUCGGUGC within the 5'CE. Replacement of 5'CE and DISS1 with PTB-binding elements failed to restore repression of exon IIIb. We tested the importance of the relative position of the silencers and of the subelements within each silencer. Whereas UISS1, UISS2, DISS1, and DISS2 appear somewhat malleable, the 5'CE is rigid in terms of relative position and redundancy. Our data defined elements of function within the ISSs flanking exon IIIb and suggested that silencing of this exon is mediated by multiple trans-acting factors. 相似文献

Inhibition of glycogenolysis in isolated rat hepatocytes by the Rp diastereomer of adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphorothioate 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The diastereomeric forms of adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphorothioate, Rp cAMPS and Sp cAMPS, were studied in isolated hepatocytes from fed rats for their ability to interact with the intracellular cAMP-dependent protein kinase and to affect the phosphorylase kinase-phosphorylase glycogenolytic cascade. Incubation of the cells with increasing concentrations of Sp cAMPS produced a concentration-dependent activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase with a concomitant increase in the glycogenolytic rate. Half-maximal and maximal velocities of glycogenolysis were reached at 8 X 10(-7) and 1 X 10(-5) M Sp cAMPS, respectively. Incubation of the cells with 10(-9) to 10(-4) M Rp cAMPS had no effect on basal glucose production or on cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Incubation of the cells simultaneously with 3 X 10(-6) M Sp cAMPS and increasing concentrations of Rp cAMPS produced half-maximal inhibition of glycogenolysis at 1 X 10(-5) M Rp cAMPS and maximal inhibition at 1 X 10(-4) M. The concentrations of Sp cAMPS required for half-maximal and maximal activation of glycogenolysis were increased 10-fold when 1 X 10(-5) M Rp cAMPS was present. These data imply that Sp cAMPS is a cAMP-agonist while Rp cAMPS is a cAMP-antagonist. 相似文献

The stereoselectivity of the adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) binding sites on the regulatory subunit of the type II bovine cardiac muscle cAMP-dependent protein kinase was investigated by examining the interactions of (Rp)- and (Sp)-adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphorothioates (cAMPS) with these sites. While activation of the holoenzyme and binding to the regulatory subunit of the type II kinase were observed for both of these diastereomers, there were significant differences between the interactions of the cAMPS isomers with the enzyme. In particular, the Sp isomer is more potent than the Rp species not only in the activation of reconstituted, as well as directly isolated, holoenzyme but also in the inhibition of [3H]cAMP binding to the regulatory subunit. A marked preference for the binding of the Sp isomer to site 2 in the regulatory subunit exists. Hydrogen bonding of a functional group on the regulatory subunit with preferential orientation toward the exocyclic oxygen rather than the sulfur of the thiophosphoryl residue may be involved in the observed selectivity of cAMPS binding and activation. In addition to our findings on the stereoselectivity of the binding of cAMPS to cAMP-dependent protein kinase, we have established a method for the reconstitution of holoenzyme from the purified subunits without subjecting the regulatory protein to denaturing conditions. 相似文献

Lysine 2,3-aminomutase. Support for a mechanism of hydrogen transfer involving S-adenosylmethionine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The conversion of L-lysine to L-beta-lysine is catalyzed by lysine 2,3-aminomutase. The reaction involves the interchange of the 2-amino group of lysine with a hydrogen at carbon 3. As such the reaction is formally analogous to adenosylcobalamin-dependent rearrangements. However, the enzyme does not contain and is not activated by this coenzyme. Instead it contains iron and pyridoxal phosphate and is activated by S-adenosylmethionine. Earlier experiments implicated adenosyl-C-5' of S-adenosylmethionine in the hydrogen transfer mechanism, apparently in a role similar or analogous to that of adenosyl moiety of adenosylcobalamin in the B12-dependent rearrangements. The question of whether both hydrogens or only one hydrogen at adenosyl-C-5' participate in the hydrogen-transfer process has been addressed by carrying out the lysine 2,3-aminomutase reaction with S-[5'-3H] adenosylmethionine in the presence of 10 times its molar concentration of enzyme. Under these conditions all of the tritium appeared in lysine and beta-lysine, showing that C-5'-hydrogens participate. To determine whether hydrogen transfer is compulsorily intermolecular and intramolecular, various molar ratios of [3,3-2H2]lysine and unlabeled lysine were submitted to the action of lysine 2,3-aminomutase under conditions in which 10-15% conversion to beta-lysine occurred. Mass spectral analysis of the beta-lysine for monodeutero and dideutero species showed conclusively that hydrogen transfer is both intramolecular and intermolecular. The results quantitatively support our postulate that activation of the enzyme involves a transformation of S-adenosylmethionine into a form that promotes the generation of an adenosyl-5' free radical, which abstracts hydrogen from lysine to form 5'-deoxyadenosine as an intermediate. 相似文献

Competitive cAMP antagonists for cAMP-receptor proteins 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

The two exocyclic oxygen atoms at phosphorus of cAMP have been replaced by a sulfur atom or by a dimethylamino group. These substitutions introduce chirality at the phosphorus atom; therefore, two diastereoisomers are known for each derivative: (SP)-cAMPS, (RP)-cAMPS, (SP)-cAMPN(CH3)2, and RP-cAMPN(CH3)2. We have investigated the agonistic and antagonistic activities of these compounds in four cAMP-dependent reactions: activation of the cellular slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum via its cell surface cAMP receptor, and phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinases type I, type II (both mammalian enzymes), and type D (derived from D. discoideum). The results show that 1) the compounds (SP)-cAMPS and (SP)-cAMPN(CH3)2 are (mostly full) agonists for the four proteins. Half-maximal activation is at micromolar concentrations (0.8-7 microM). 2) (RP)-cAMPS is a full antagonist for the cell surface receptor and protein kinases type I and II, with apparent inhibition constants between 0.8 and 8 microM. This compound is a partial agonist for protein kinase type D, where it induces maximally 50% activation of the enzyme if compared with cAMP. 3) (RP)-cAMPN(CH3)2 is a full antagonist for the cell surface receptor, and for protein kinase type II. This compound is a partial agonist for protein kinase type I (at least 50% activation if compared with cAMP), and inactive for protein kinase type D. This derivative is at least 25-fold less active as an antagonist than (RP)-cAMPS. 4) The activity of mixtures of different concentrations of the antagonist (RP)-cAMPS with different concentrations of cAMP reveals that the compound is a competitive antagonist of cAMP at micromolar concentrations. 相似文献
