The relative contribution of each anomer of D-glucose to the overall phosphorylation rate of the hexose tested at anomeric equilibrium was examined in rat liver postmicrosomal supernatants under conditions aimed at characterizing the activity of glucokinase, with negligible interference of either hexokinase, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine kinase or glucose-6-phosphatase (acting as a phosphotransferase). Both at 10 degrees and 30 degrees C, the relative contribution of each anomer was unaffected by the concentration of D-glucose. At both temperatures, the alpha/beta ratio for the contribution of each anomer was slightly, but significantly, lower than the alpha/beta ratio of anomer concentrations. These findings, which are consistent with the anomeric specificity of glucokinase in terms of affinity, cooperativity and maximal velocity, reveal that the preferred alpha-anomeric substrate for both glycogen synthesis and glycolysis is generated by glucokinase at a lower rate than is beta-D-glucose-6-phosphate. 相似文献

Antigen of “serum-sickness” type of heterophile antibodies in pathologic human sera was purified from equine and bovine erythrocyte stroma. The chemical nature of this antigen was glycosphingolipids with N-glycolylneuraminic acid. The antigen of equine erythrocytes was identified as hematoside with N-glycolylneuraminic acid, GlNeu(α, 2–3)Gal(β, 1–4)Glc(β,1-1) ceramide and the antigen of bovine erythrocytes was N-glycolylneuraminyl-paragloboside, GlNeu (α,2–3)Gal(β,1–4)GlcNAc(β,1–3)Gal(β,1–4)Glc(β,1-1) ceramide. The results indicate that “serum-sickness” antibodies react with a common disaccharide moiety of non-reducing end of the both glycosphingolipids. 相似文献

Phlorizin is a reversible inhibitor of the renal and small intestinal Na+/D-glucose cotransporter. In an attempt to purify the Na+/D-glucose cotransporter from a pig kidney brush border membrane fraction, we used an Affi-Gel affinity chromatography column to which 3-aminophlorizin had been coupled. A protein, composed according to crosslinking experiments of at least 3 subunits of molecular weight 60 kDa, was found to bind specifically to the phlorizin column. This protein was subsequently identified as catalase by sequence homology of three of its tryptic fragments to the sequence of several mammalian catalases as well as by its enzymatic activity. Although bovine liver catalase was bound tightly to the affinity matrix, phlorizin had no effect on the ability of the enzyme to degrade H2O2. In contrast, the Aspergillus niger and Neurospora crassa catalases did not bind to the phlorizin column. This difference may be related to the fact that mammalian catalases, but not the fungal catalases, contain an NADPH binding site with a yet unknown function. Interestingly, bovine liver catalase could be eluted with 50 microM NADPH from phlorizin columns. Irradiation in the presence of [3H]4-azidophlorizin allowed photolabeling of bovine liver catalase, which was prevented by the presence of 10 microM NADPH. After digestion of photolabeled catalase with chymotrypsin, a radioactive peptide was detected that was absent in catalase protected with NADPH. Docking simulations suggested that phlorizin can bind to the NADPH binding site with high affinity. 相似文献

Fibroblastic cultures from the skin of nondiabetic and diabetic (db/db) mice have been used to investigate alterations in the biological responses of diabetic cells to insulin. Confluent cultures from the skin of both nondiabetic and diabetic animals possess specific receptors for insulin. Diabetic fibroblasts exhibit only 36% as much specific binding of insulin as nondiabetic fibroblasts, because of a decrease in the total number of binding sites, without a change in binding affinity. Insulin caused a time- and dose-dependent increase in the rate of 2-deoxy D-glucose (dGlc) uptake and in ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity of both nondiabetic and diabetic fibroblasts. In nondiabetic cells, half-maximal increase in dGlc uptake was obtained with 0.3 nM insulin, and a maximum increase of 120% was obtained with 4.1 nM insulin. In contrast, diabetic cultures required 0.8 nM insulin for a half-maximal increase in dGlc uptake, and maximum stimulation with 4.1 nM insulin was only 50% above control levels. With 4-fold higher insulin concentrations, ODC activity of diabetic cells was only 40% that of nondiabetic cells. In nondiabetic cells, down regulation of insulin receptors by insulin abolished the ability of insulin to stimulate dGlc uptake. These results demonstrate that cells cultured from diabetic animals, which possess a decreased number of insulin receptors, also exhibit decreased stimulation of deoxy D-glucose uptake and ornithin decarboxylase activity by insulin. 相似文献

The anomeric specificity of D-[U-14C]glucose incorporation into glycogen in rat hemidiaphragms was investigated. For this purpose, the hemidiaphragms were preincubated for 30 min at 37 degrees C and then incubated for 5 min at the same temperature in the presence of alpha- or beta-D-[U-14C]glucose. The concentrations of D-glucose (5.6 or 8.8 mM) and insulin (0 or 10 mU/ml) were identical during the preincubation and incubation periods. The incubation medium was prepared in D2O/H2O (3:1, v/v) in order to delay the interconversion of the D-glucose anomers. In addition to glycogen labelling, the output of radioactive acidic metabolites was also measured. Insulin caused a preferential stimulation of glycogen labelling relative to glycolysis. Such was not the case in response to a rise in D-glucose concentration. At 5.6 mM D-glucose and whether in the presence or absence of insulin, both glycogen labelling and glycolysis were lower with alpha-D-glucose than with beta-D-glucose suggesting a higher rate of beta-D-glucose than alpha-D-glucose transport across the plasma membrane. A mirror image was found at 8.8 mM D-glucose, especially in the absence of insulin. At this close-to-physiological hexose concentration, insulin lowered the alpha/beta ratio for glycogen labelling. On the contrary, the rise in D-glucose concentration increased such a ratio. Since such a rise is probably little affected by any possible anomeric difference in D-glucose transport across the plasma membrane, the present results strongly suggest that the intracellular factors regulating net glycogen synthesis, as well as glycolytic flux, display obvious preference for alpha-D-glucose. 相似文献

The effects of glucose (5–25 mM) and insulin concentration (40–320 U/ml) on the cell shape of neutrophil granulocytes from healthy humans were studied. Both non-activated and N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe)-activated neutrophils in suspension were used as a model for initial chemotactic activation of neutrophil locomotion. D-glucose, but not the non-metabolizable analogue 3-O-methyl-D-glucose, dose-dependently reduced the fMet-Leu-Phe-induced (10–8M) neutrophil elongation. Insulin, either alone or in combination with 25 mM D-glucose, was without effect on the fMet-Leu-Phe-induced neutrophil elongation. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of D-glucose was observed already after 1 min of exposure to D-glucose and fMet-Leu-Phe. D-glucose diminished the fraction of neutrophils with elongated locomotor shape by changing it into an irregular cell shape, suggesting that at least part of the D-glucose effect could be associated with mechanisms determining the typical locomotor shape. The present results suggest that D-glucose through its metabolism, but without the involvement of insulin, reduces chemotactically induced elongation to a locomotor neutrophil shape, and thus neutrophil motility, and that this effect of glucose appears prior to adhesion. This glucose-induced inhibition of the neutrophil chemotactic response may be involved in the neutrophil deficiency seen in diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

It was recently proposed that in rat pancreatic islets exposed to 8.3 mM D-glucose, alpha-D-glucose-6-phosphate undergoes enzyme-to-enzyme channelling between hexokinase isoenzyme(s) and phosphoglucoisomerase. To explore the identity of the hexokinase isoenzyme(s) involved in such a tunnelling process, the generation of 3HOH from the alpha- and beta-anomers of either D-[2-3H]glucose or D-[5-3H]glucose was now measured over 60 min incubation at 4 degrees C in pancreatic islets exposed only to 2.8 mM D-glucose, in order to decrease the relative contribution of glucokinase to the phosphorylation of the hexose. Under these experimental conditions, the ratio for 3HOH production from D-[2-3H]glucose/D-[5-3H]glucose at anomeric equilibrium (39.7 +/- 11.6%) and the beta/alpha ratios for the generation of 3HOH from either the D-[2-3H]glucose anomers (70.9 +/- 12.6%) or the D-[5-3H]glucose anomers (59.6 +/- 12.4%) indicated that a much greater fraction of alpha-D-glucose-6-phosphate escapes from the process of enzyme-to-enzyme channelling in the islets exposed to 2.8 mM, rather than 8.3 mM D-glucose. These findings suggest, therefore, that the postulated process of enzyme-to-enzyme channelling involves mainly glucokinase. 相似文献
