Northern elephant seal ( Mirounga angustirostris )pups undergo extended periods of terrestrial aphagia after weaning and exhibit a paradoxical fasting hyperglycemia. To investigate the details of glucose metabolism during this period, reversible and irreversible radiotracers were used to determine the body mass of glucose, and rates of glucose turnover, recycling, and oxidation in fasting seal pups. A typical 75 kg pup has a glucose mass of about 4.5 g (60 mg/kg), and a blood glucose concentration of about 174 mg/dl. Blood glucose removal rate was about 30 grams per day (17 mg/kg · h-1 ), but less than 2.5% of this glucose was oxidized, contributing less than 1% of the total metabolic rate. About 20% of the glucose pool was removed from the blood per hour, yielding a turnover time in the vascular space of about five hours. Most glucose removed from the blood was returned to the blood by recycling. Such recycling may contribute to mechanisms which prolong survival during fasting, such as high rates of triacyclglycerol turnover, synthesis of new protein pools, low ketone levels, and the Cori cycle which is important during diving. 相似文献

Regulation of microautophagy and basal protein turnover in rat liver. Effects of short-term starvation 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Basal rates of long-lived (resident) protein degradation in rat liver, measured during perfusion after amino acid suppression of macroautophagy, were shown to be strongly regulated by caloric deprivation, decreasing 70% over 48 h in animals fed a high protein diet and 50% in normal controls. Intralysosomal pools of degradable protein correlated directly with basal turnover over this range, yielding a slope (0.09 min-1) that was virtually identical with previous estimates of macroautophagic turnover. The specific radioactivity of valine released from lysosomes in previously labeled livers was the same as that in plasma in both basal and deprivation-induced states. Quantitative electron microscopy revealed a significant decrease with starvation in the absolute volume of a class of secondary lysosome (type A) previously associated with basal or microautophagy. By contrast, the volumes of other microautophagic forms, which comprised roughly 10% of the total, did not change. Taking 0.087 min-1 as the turnover constant of degradable intralysosomal protein and assuming that the concentration of sequestered protein was the same in all vacuoles as that in cytoplasm, we obtained close agreement between predicted and observed rates of basal protein turnover over the range of regulation. The results support the view that the lysosomal system is the final step in the basal degradation of long-lived proteins in the hepatocyte and that a specific class of secondary lysosome (type A) plays a direct role in its regulation during caloric starvation. 相似文献

Tracer methods for VLDL-TG kinetics vary in their ability to account for the effect of tracer recycling, which can influence the calculation of VLDL-TG fractional catabolic rates (FCRs). We evaluated a novel approach, involving stable isotopically labeled glycerol or palmitate tracers in conjunction with compartmental modeling, for measuring VLDL-TG kinetics in normolipidemic human subjects. When administered as a bolus simultaneously, both tracers provided identical VLDL-TG FCRs when the data were analyzed by a compartmental model that accounted for hepatic lipid tracer recycling, but not by non-compartmental analysis. The model-derived FCR was greater than that determined using a non-compartmental approach, and was 2- to 3-fold higher than that usually reported by using a bolus of radioactive [3H]glycerol. When palmitate tracer was given as a constant infusion, VLDL-TG turnover appeared 5-fold slower, because tracer recycling through hepatic lipid pools could not be resolved with the infusion protocol. We conclude that accounting for tracer recycling, particularly the contribution of hepatic glycerolipid pools, is essential to accurately measure VLDL-TG kinetics, and that bolus injection of stable isotopically labeled glycerol or palmitate tracers in conjunction with compartmental modeling analysis offers a reliable approach for measuring VLDL-TG kinetics. 相似文献

Protein turnover in relation to maintenance metabolism at low photon flux in two marine microalgae 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Acclimation to very low photon fluxes involves adjusting a suite of physiological characteristics that collectively elicit a physiological response. Facilitating such changes is pro‐tein turnover. Dunaliella tertiolecta (Butcher) and Phaeodactylum tricornutum (Bohlin) were grown in turbidostats at a range of photon fluxes between 2 and 300 µmol photons m?2 s?1. The kinetics of pulse‐chase labelling of the protein with 3H showed that (1) two protein pools were present, one of which turned‐over rapidly (hours), and a second which turned over more slowly (days); and (2) protein turnover rates were slower in P. tricornutum than in D. tertiolecta. Phaeodactylum tricornutum had a lower maintenance coefficient for protein turnover than D. tertiolecta, and correspondingly a smaller proportion of its respiratory demands (30%) were associated with protein turnover than in D. tertiolecta (36%). There appears to be a correlation between lower metabolic activity, requiring lower protein concentrations, and an associated decreased cost of maintenance processes in P. tricornutum compared to D. tertiolecta. Differences between protein turnover rates and maintenance metabolic costs may be one of the photo‐acclimation strategies that determine which photon niches microalgae can successfully exploit. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Maintaining the integrity and function of the presynaptic neurotransmitter release apparatus is a demanding process for a post-mitotic neuron; the mechanisms behind it are still unclear. BSN (bassoon), an active zone scaffolding protein, has been implicated in the control of presynaptic macroautophagy/autophagy, a process we recently showed depends on poly-ubiquitination of synaptic proteins. Moreover, loss of BSN was found to lead to smaller synaptic vesicle (SV) pools and younger pools of the SV protein SV2. Of note, the E3 ligase PRKN/parkin appears to be involved in BSN deficiency-related changes in autophagy levels, as shRNA-mediated knockdown of PRKN counteracts BSN-deficiency and rescues decreased SV protein levels as well as impaired SV recycling in primary cultured neurons. These data imply that BSN and PRKN act in concert to control presynaptic autophagy and maintain presynaptic proteostasis and SV turnover at the physiologically required levels. 相似文献

Methods of measuring amino acid recycling in Lemna minor are described. The extent to which the recycling of individual amino acids may underestimate protein turnover has been measured for a number of amino acids. The methods have been used to study the relationship between protein turnover and amino acid recycling during nitrogen starvation. It is concluded that following the removal of nitrate from the environment, protein turnover is enhanced, the partitioning of amino acids between protein synthesis and amino acid metabolism is relatively constant, but the total amount of amino acids recycling is increased. 相似文献

Measuring the properties of endogenous cell proteins, such as expression level, subcellular localization, and turnover rates, on a whole proteome level remains a major challenge in the postgenome era. Quantitative methods for measuring mRNA expression do not reliably predict corresponding protein levels and provide little or no information on other protein properties. Here we describe a combined pulse-labeling, spatial proteomics and data analysis strategy to characterize the expression, localization, synthesis, degradation, and turnover rates of endogenously expressed, untagged human proteins in different subcellular compartments. Using quantitative mass spectrometry and stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture, a total of 80,098 peptides from 8,041 HeLa proteins were quantified, and their spatial distribution between the cytoplasm, nucleus and nucleolus determined and visualized using specialized software tools developed in PepTracker. Using information from ion intensities and rates of change in isotope ratios, protein abundance levels and protein synthesis, degradation and turnover rates were calculated for the whole cell and for the respective cytoplasmic, nuclear, and nucleolar compartments. Expression levels of endogenous HeLa proteins varied by up to seven orders of magnitude. The average turnover rate for HeLa proteins was ~20 h. Turnover rate did not correlate with either molecular weight or net charge, but did correlate with abundance, with highly abundant proteins showing longer than average half-lives. Fast turnover proteins had overall a higher frequency of PEST motifs than slow turnover proteins but no general correlation was observed between amino or carboxyl terminal amino acid identities and turnover rates. A subset of proteins was identified that exist in pools with different turnover rates depending on their subcellular localization. This strongly correlated with subunits of large, multiprotein complexes, suggesting a general mechanism whereby their assembly is controlled in a different subcellular location to their main site of function. 相似文献

Turnover of myelin lipids in aging brain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Turnover rates of myelin membrane components in mouse brains were determined by a method using stable isotope-labeling and mass spectrometry. The half-replacement times based on incorporation rates of newly synthesized molecules for young adult mice were 359 days for cholesterol, 20 days for phosphatidylcholine, 25 days for phosphatidylethanolamine, 94 days for cerebroside and 102 days for ganglioside GM1. The turnover rates of half-lives of myelin components were calculated from the decay curves of initially labeled molecules, and they were about the same as the half-replacement times. Individual components were thus revealed to be metabolized at different rates, and their turnover rates were differently affected by aging. As was observed with phospholipids, myelin pools appeared to be compartmentalized into rapidly and slowly exchanging pools. The turnover rates of cerebroside and GM1 decreased between the young and adult periods and slightly increased in senescence. The latter phenomenon may indicate an enhanced myelin turnover in senescence. The present study reveals the dynamic aspects of myelin membrane turnover during the life span of mouse. 相似文献

Changes in the abundance of individual proteins in the proteome can be elicited by modulation of protein synthesis (the rate of input of newly synthesized proteins into the protein pool) or degradation (the rate of removal of protein molecules from the pool). A full understanding of proteome changes therefore requires a definition of the roles of these two processes in proteostasis, collectively known as protein turnover. Because protein turnover occurs even in the absence of overt changes in pool abundance, turnover measurements necessitate monitoring the flux of stable isotope–labeled precursors through the protein pool such as labeled amino acids or metabolic precursors such as ammonium chloride or heavy water. In cells in culture, the ability to manipulate precursor pools by rapid medium changes is simple, but for more complex systems such as intact animals, the approach becomes more convoluted. Individual methods bring specific complications, and the suitability of different methods has not been comprehensively explored. In this study, we compare the turnover rates of proteins across four mouse tissues, obtained from the same inbred mouse strain maintained under identical husbandry conditions, measured using either [13C6]lysine or [2H2]O as the labeling precursor. We show that for long-lived proteins, the two approaches yield essentially identical measures of the first-order rate constant for degradation. For short-lived proteins, there is a need to compensate for the slower equilibration of lysine through the precursor pools. We evaluate different approaches to provide that compensation. We conclude that both labels are suitable, but careful determination of precursor enrichment kinetics in amino acid labeling is critical and has a considerable influence on the numerical values of the derived protein turnover rates. 相似文献

Specific Activity of Brain Palmitoyl-CoA Pool Provides Rates of Incorporation of Palmitate in Brain Phospholipids in Awake Rats 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3

Abstract: In vivo rates of palmitate incorporation into brain phospholipids were measured in awake rats following programmed intravenous infusion of unesterified [9,10-3 H]palmitate to maintain constant plasma specific activity. Animals were killed after 2–10 min of infusion by microwave irradiation and analyzed for tracer distribution in brain phospholipid and phospholipid precursor, i.e., brain unesterified palmitate and palmitoyl-CoA, pools. [9,10-3 H]Palmitate incorporation into brain phospholipids was linear with time and rapid, with >50% of brain tracer in choline-containing glycerophospholipids at 2 min of infusion. However, tracer specific activity in brain phospholipid precursor pools was low and averaged only 1.6–1.8% of plasma unesterified palmitate specific activity. Correction for brain palmitoyl-CoA specific activity increased the calculated rate of palmitate incorporation into brain phospholipids (0.52 nmol/s/g) by ∼60-fold. The results suggest that palmitate incorporation and turnover in brain phospholipids are far more rapid than generally assumed and that this rapid turnover dilutes tracer specific activity in brain palmitoyl-CoA pool owing to release and recycling of unlabeled fatty acid from phospholipid breakdown. 相似文献

Abstract The allocation of photosynthetically fixed carbon in the leaf blades and sheaths of Poa annua (a ruderal grass) and Poa x jemtlandica (a sub-arctic grass) was followed over a light-dark cycle. Labelling with 14Carbon and gas exchange measurements provide data for an eight-compartment model describing the partitioning of carbon between spatially and chemically separated pools and their rates of turnover. Soluble sugars and fructans were turned over rapidly in the leaf blades of both species. The flux of carbon through pools of storage carbohydrates was higher in the leaves of P. x jemtlandica than in P. annua. The exchange of carbon between pools was slower in the sheath than the blade. Carbohydrates stored in the sheath appeared to have no significant role in metabolism over the light-dark cycle studied here. 相似文献

Using pHluorin-tagged synaptic vesicle proteins we have examined the partitioning of these probes into recycling and nonrecycling pools at hippocampal nerve terminals in cell culture. Our studies show that for three of the major synaptic vesicle components, vGlut-1, VAMP-2, and Synaptotagmin I, approximately 50-60% of the tagged protein appears in a recycling pool that responds readily to sustained action potential stimulation by mobilizing and fusing with the plasma membrane, while the remainder is targeted to a nonrecycling, acidic compartment. The fraction of recycling and nonrecycling (or resting) pools varied significantly across boutons within an individual axon, from 100% resting (silent) to 100% recycling. Single-bouton bleaching studies show that recycling and resting pools are dynamic and exchange between synaptic boutons. The quantitative parameters that can be extracted with the approaches outlined here should help elucidate the potential functional role of the resting vesicle pool. 相似文献

Cholesterol metabolism in the brain 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24
The central nervous system accounts for only 2% of the whole body mass but contains almost a quarter of the unesterified cholesterol present in the whole individual. This sterol is largely present in two pools comprised of the cholesterol in the plasma membranes of glial cells and neurons and the cholesterol present in the specialized membranes of myelin. From 0.02% (human) to 0.4% (mouse) of the cholesterol in these pools turns over each day so that the absolute flux of sterol across the brain is only approximately 0.9% as rapid as the turnover of cholesterol in the whole body of these respective species. The input of cholesterol into the central nervous system comes almost entirely from in situ synthesis, and there is currently little evidence for the net transfer of sterol from the plasma into the brain of the fetus, newborn or adult. In the steady state in the adult, an equivalent amount of cholesterol must move out of the brain and this output is partly accounted for by the formation and excretion of 24S-hydroxycholesterol. This cholesterol turnover across the brain is increased in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Niemann-Pick type C disease. Indirect evidence suggests that large amounts of cholesterol also turn over among the glial cells and neurons within the central nervous system during brain growth and neuron repair and remodelling. This internal recycling of sterol may involve ligands such as apolipoproteins E and AI, and one or more membrane transport proteins such as members of the low density lipoprotein receptor family. Changes in cholesterol balance across the whole body may, in some way, cause alterations in sterol recycling and apolipoprotein E expression within the central nervous system, which, in turn, may affect neuron and myelin integrity. Further elucidation of the processes controlling these events is very important to understand a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. 相似文献

The apparent half life for metabolic turnover of glycerophospholipids in the myelin sheath, as determined by measuring the rate of loss of label in a myelin glycerophospholipid following radioactive precursor injection, varies with the radioactive precursor used, age of animal, and time after injection during which metabolic turnover is studied. Experimental strategies for resolving apparent inconsistencies consequent to these variables are discussed. Illustrative data concerning turnover of phosphatidylcholine (PC) in myelin of rat brain are presented. PC of the myelin membrane exhibits heterogeneity with respect to metabolic turnover rates. There are at least two metabolic pools of PC in myelin, one with a half life of the order of days, and another with a half life of the order of weeks. To a significant extent biphasic turnover is due to differential turnover of individual molecular species (which differ in acyl chain composition). The two predominant molecular species of myelin PC turnover at very different rates (16:0, 18:1 PC turning over several times more rapidly than 18:0, 18:1 PC). Therefore, within the same membrane, individual molecular species of a phospholipid class are metabolized at different rates. Possible mechanisms for differential turnover of molecular species are discussed, as are other factors that may contribute to a multiphasic turnover of glycerophospholipids.Special issue dedicated to Dr. Marjorie Lees. 相似文献

The amount of any given protein in the brain is determined by the rates of its synthesis and destruction, which are regulated by different cellular mechanisms. Here, we combine metabolic labeling in live mice with global proteomic profiling to simultaneously quantify both the flux and amount of proteins in mouse models of neurodegeneration. In multiple models, protein turnover increases were associated with increasing pathology. This method distinguishes changes in protein expression mediated by synthesis from those mediated by degradation. In the AppNL-F knockin mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease, increased turnover resulted from imbalances in both synthesis and degradation, converging on proteins associated with synaptic vesicle recycling (Dnm1, Cltc, Rims1) and mitochondria (Fis1, Ndufv1). In contrast to disease models, aging in wild-type mice caused a widespread decrease in protein recycling associated with a decrease in autophagic flux. Overall, this simple multidimensional approach enables a comprehensive mapping of proteome dynamics and identifies affected proteins in mouse models of disease and other live animal test settings. 相似文献

Turnover of cellular protein has been estimated in Escherichia coli during continuous exponential growth and in the absence of extensive experimental manipulation. Estimation is based upon the cumulative release into carrier pools of free leucine-1-(14)C over a number of time intervals after its pulsed incorporation into protein. Breakdown rates obtained with other labeled amino acids are similar to those obtained with leucine. Two kinetically separate processes have been shown. First, a very rapid turnover of 5% of the amino acid label occurs within 45 sec after its incorporation, most likely indicating maturative cleavages within the proteins after their assembly. A slower heterogeneous rate of true protein turnover follows, falling by 39% in the remaining proteins for each doubling of turnover time. At 36 C, the total breakdown rate of cellular protein is 2.5 and 3.0% per hr over a threefold range of growth rate in glucose and acetate medium, respectively. This relatively constant breakdown rate is maintained during slower growth by more extensive protein replacement, one fifth of the protein synthesized at any time in the acetate medium being replaced after 4.6 doubling times. Intracellular proteolysis thus appears to be a normal and integral reaction of the growing cell. The total rate equals minimal estimates obtained by others for arrested or decelerated growth but is kinetically more heterogeneous. Quantitatively proteolysis is not directly affected by growth arrestment per se as caused by alpha-methylhistidine, chloramphenicol, or uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, but qualitatively it can gradually become more homogeneous kinetically as a secondary event of starvation. Under more extreme conditions as with extensive washing, prolonged phosphorylative uncoupling, or acidification of the growth medium, the proteolytic rate can increase severalfold. 相似文献

HeLa cells take up Phe and two of its ring halogenated derivatives (pFPhe and pClPhe) with rpaidity, concentrating them against the external medium both at 4 and 37 degrees C. The majority of amino acid (greater than 90%) is accumulated without energy expenditures at 4 degrees C, and can be quickly discharged by normal cell washing procedures in saline. At 37 degrees C the freely-diffusible (FDP) pool is accompanied by another which develops more slowly and cannot diffuse out freely during washings with saline but is extractable with trichloracetic acid (the slowly-diffusible pool, SDP, or more conventionally, the acid-soluble pool). Both of the analogues produced larger pools of the latter type than Phe itself from external concentrations ranging from 10(-5) to 10(-3) M. The incorporation of pFPhe into proteins over these same concentrations ranged from 30 to 90--95% of Phe incorporation, whereas pClPhe showed negligible incorporation. From these and similar analyses it can be concluded that amino acid pools form largely independently of protein synthesis, but bear a close relationship with the external amino acid concentration. The fraction of total uptake into cellular pools entering the SDP was relatively constant over a wide range of external concentrations. pFPhe incorporation into cellular proteins produced the same labelling distribution of Phe. It appears to ener all proteins, the vast majority of which have similar half-lives and turnover rates to Phe proteins. In competition, little or no interference was experienced between the analogue and Phe in uptake and pool formation until excessive amounts of one or the other were present (50--100x). By contrast, incorporation of pFPhe into protein was markedly reduced by the presence of Phe. However, the development of normal or large pools of pFPhe or Phe in cells prior to 3H-Phe incorporation did not affect the linear incorporation pattern of the radioisotope into protein. The relationship of pools to protein synthesis is discussed, and it is concluded that, although the SDP could contain potential precursor molecules for protein synthesis, it does not usually act as the direct supplier of amino acid for protein synthesis. Alternative explanations for precursor supply are discussed. 相似文献

Guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) is an essential protein required for the recycling of Rab GTPases mediating the targeting and fusion of vesicles in the exocytic and endocytic pathways. Using site-directed mutagenesis of yeast GDI1, we demonstrate that amino acid residues required for Rab recognition in vitro are critical for function in vivo in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Analysis of the effects of Rab-binding mutants on function in vivo reveals that only a small pool of recycling Rab protein is essential for growth, and that the rates of recycling of distinct Rabs are differentially sensitive to GDI. Furthermore, we find that membrane association of Gdi1p is Rab-independent. Mutant Gdi1 proteins unable to bind Rabs were able to associate with cellular membranes as efficiently as wild-type Gdi1p, yet caused a striking loss of the endogenous cytosolic Gdi1p-Rab pools leading to dominant inhibition of growth when expressed at levels of the normal, endogenous pool. These results demonstrate a potential role for a new recycling factor in the retrieval of Rab-GDP from membranes, and illustrate the importance of multiple effectors in regulating GDI function in Rab delivery and retrieval from membranes. 相似文献

Methods for measurement of rates of collagen synthesis in vivo have thus far been technically difficult and often subject to quite large errors. In this paper a simplified method is described for obtaining synthesis rates of collagen and non-collagen proteins, for tissues of rabbits. This involves an intravenous injection of [3H]proline, administered with a large dose of unlabelled proline, and measurement of the specific radioactivity of proline and hydroxyproline in body tissues up to 3 h later. The specific radioactivity of [3H]proline in plasma and the tissue free pools rises rapidly to a plateau value which is maintained for at least 2 h, when the specific radioactivity of the type I collagen precursors, isolated from the skin, was similar to that of the plasma and tissue-free pool. Furthermore, over this period, the increase in the specific radioactivity of proline in collagen and non-collagen protein was linear with respect to time. These results suggest that the large dose of proline floods the precursor pools for protein synthesis, and that this effect can be maintained for quite long periods of time. Such kinetics greatly simplified the method for obtaining collagen synthesis rates in vivo, which were calculated for lung, heart, skin and skeletal muscle, and shown to be quite rapid, ranging between about 3 and 10%/day. The lung was a particularly metabolically active tissue, with synthesis rates of about 10%/day for collagen and 35%/day for total non-collagen proteins, indicating rapid turnover of both intracellular and extracellular proteins of this tissue. 相似文献
