  • 1.1. Pseudomonas aeruginosa phospholipase C from culture supernatants of bacteria grown in high-Pi basal salt medium with choline, as the sole carbon and nitrogen source, was purified by precipitation with 70% saturation ammonium sulfate in the presence of celite.
  • 2.2. The PLC activity was eluted of this mixture by the use of a reverse gradient of 70-0% ammonium sulfate.
  • 3.3. The peak containing the PLC activity revealed a single protein after SDS-PAGE.

  • 1.1. Studies of experimentally induced hypoxia were carried out on synapses in the isolated sixth abdominal (A6) ganglion of the cockroach using electrophysiological methods.
  • 2.2. During a break of saline superfusion, oxygen tension (PO2) decreased and depolarization of presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes was observed.
  • 3.3. During hypoxia EPSP amplitude initially increased, but decreased after a few minutes.
  • 4.4. Changes in the EPSP and membranes potential resulting from hypoxia were reversed when the saline superfusion was restarted.
  • 5.5. Changes in the amplitude of both the EPSP and the depolarization induced by microiontophoretic injections of ACh indicated that ACh release initially increased during hypoxia and decreased during recovery from oxygen deprivation.

  • 2.2. The isoelectric point of the purified enzyme was determined to be 4.20, and the mol. wt was 31,700 as estimated by Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography; and 14.000 as estimated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
  • 3.3. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed phosphatidylcholine (PC) faster than phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), whereas phosphatidylserine (PS) was not hydrolyzed at all (PC > PE > PS = 0). However, in reaction system consisted of mixtures of PC and PS, phosphatidylserine was effectively hydrolyzed by the enzyme.
  • 4.4. The phospholipase A2 exhibited edema-forming activity but not hemolytic, hemorrhagic or anticoagulant activities. It was not lethal to mice at a dosage of 10 μg/g by i.v. route.

  • 1.1. Glycerolphosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) was solubilized from the rat liver mitochondrial membranes using sodium cholate. Dithiothreitol was necessary to stabilize the solubilized enzyme on storage.
  • 2.2. Unlike the enzyme in situ in mitochondrial membranes, the solubilized mitochondrial GPAT was susceptible to inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide; a property more characteristic of the distinct microsomal form of GPAT.
  • 3.3. Solubilized mitochondrial GPAT retained its very high preference for saturated acyl-CoA substrate (palmitoyl-CoA) and had no activity whatever with any tested concentration of the unsaturated substrate oleoyl-CoA.
  • 4.4. Solubilization increased the affinity of mitochondrial GPAT for palmitoyl-CoA whilst decreasing the Km for glycerol phosphate.
  • 5.5. After separation of liver mitochondrial outer and inner membranes and estimation of cross-contamination by appropriate markers it was concluded that the mitochondrial inner membrane contains significant GPAT activity. This was established with preparations from fed, 48 hr-starved and streptozotocin-diabetic rats.

  • 1.1. The influx and transepithelial movements of l-methionine and its effects on the electrophysiology and Na-Cl-transport in upper and lower intestine of the cultured fish, Spanis aurata, were measured.
  • 2.2. The Km and Vmax of l-methionine influx into the tissues were higher in lower intestine than in upper intestine. A prominent diffusion-like transport component was also measured in both segments during influx experiments.
  • 3.3. Net transepithelial fluxes of l-methionine (1 mM) were observed in both upper and lower intestine, this transport being Na+-dependent.
  • 4.4. The two intestinal segments exhibited an electrical potential difference (PD) and a short circuit current (Isc) serosa negative or near zero. Tissue conductance (Gt) was higher in posterior than in lower intestine.
  • 5.5. Addition of l-methionine to the mucosal side of lower or upper intestine did not induce changes in PD in either part.
  • 6.6. Isotopic fluxes of Cl or Na+ measurements under short circuit conditions showed that there were no net Cl or Na+ transport in either part.
  • 7.7. l-Methionine additions to the mucosa did not induce changes in unidirectional fluxes of Cl or Na+ or in the (Isc) in either the anterior or posterior intestine.

  • 1.1. Tyrosyl protein sulfotransferase (TPS) activity in the newborn and mature rat brain was studied using the cholecystokinin derivative terbutyloxycarbonyl-Asp-Tyr-Met-Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-PheNH2, BocCCK-8(ns), as the peptide substrate.
  • 2.2. TPS activity was enriched 4 times in the microsomal and synaptic vesicular enriched fractions of rat cerebral cortex.
  • 3.3. CCK-8 content, in the subcellular fractions and the peptide sulfation activity distribution was in accord with the hypothesis that tyrosyl protein sulfotransferase plays a key role in the maturation process of bioactive CCK.
  • 4.4. TPS activity measured in membranes from newborn brain was 2.5 times higher than the activity observed in the mature brain membranes with a Vmax = 0.83 ± 0.05 and 0.31 ± 0.02 respectively. The apparent KM for the sulfate donor, 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS), was similar, 94 ± 4 nM and 90 ± 6 nM and the kM for the peptide substrate, BocCCK-8(ns), was 234 ± 16 μM and 160 ± 12 μM in the newborn and adult brain membranes respectively.
  • 5.5. TPS activity reached normal mature values within 20 days of age.
  • 6.6. These data support the idea that tyrosyl protein sulfation is an important process in the secretion mechanism and in the CCK maturation.

  • 1.1. The properties of Na+/K+-transporting ATPase in microsomal fractions from the nervous tissue of the grasshopper, Poekilocerus bufonius were investigated.
  • 2.2. Two components of ATPase activity are present.
  • 3.3. Inclusion of 1 mM ouabain in the incubation media reduced the activity of total and Na+/K+-ATPase by 57 and 79%, respectively.
  • 4.4. The maximum velocity (Vmax) was decreased by the addition of 1 mM ouabain, whereas the apparent Km value was not affected indicating a non-competitive type of inhibition.
  • 5.5. The calculated value of the pI50 was 6.4 (I50 = 3.98 × 10−7M) for ouabain inhibition of the enzyme showing great sensitivity to the cardiac glycoside ouabain.
  • 6.6. The present results show that the physicochemical properties of Na+/K+-transporting ATPase from the brain of P. bufonius are essentially the same as for the enzyme prepared from the excretory system of the insect which has been previously investigated.
  • 7.7. Dissimilarities were also observed between these tissues in the way that the enzyme from the brain was sensitive to ouabain inhibition with a non-competitive type rather than a ouabain-resistance and a competitive type of inhibition for the enzyme from the excretory system.
  • 8.8. These dissimilarities are probably due to different isoenzyme patterns available in the same insect.

  • 1.1. Kinetic and physico-chemical studies on human placental microsomal fraction confirmed that the ATPase and ADPase activities detected in this fraction correspond to the enzyme ATP-diphosphohydrolase or apyrase (EC 3.6.1.5). These include substrate specificity, and coincident Mr and pI values of both ATPase-ADPase activities.
  • 2.2. This enzyme hydrolyses both the free unprotonated and cation-nucleotide complex, the catalytic efficiency for the latter being considerably higher.
  • 3.3. Microsomal apyrase is insensitive to ouabain and Ap5A. The highly purified enzyme was only inhibited by o-vanadate, DBS and slightly by DCCD.
  • 4.4. Apyrase seems to be a glycoprotein from its interaction with Concanavalin-A.
  • 5.5. Preliminary studies on the essential amino acid residues suggest the participation of Arg, Lys and His residues, and discard the requirement of −SH, COO, −OH, and probably also Tyr and Trp.
  • 6.6. Two kinetic modulatory proteins of apyrase were detected in placental tissue. An activating protein was found in the soluble fraction and an inhibitory protein was loosely bound to the membranes.
  • 7.7. The proposed in vivo function for apyrase is related to the inhibition of platelet aggregation due to its ADPase activity, which is supported by the direct effect on washed platelets and by its plasma membrane localization.

  • 1.1. Prostaglandin endoperoxide synthetase (PES) and lipoxygenase (Lox) activities were compared in the cerebella and cerebra of vitamin E-sufficient young chicks and in chicks in which nutritional encephalomalacia (NE) was induced by a diet deficient in vitamin E.
  • 2.2. Eicosanoid production patterns were qualitatively similar in the brains of both groups of chicks, but prostaglandin production was 50–60% less in cerebella of ataxic chicks, compared to control cerebella, while the opposite trend was observed in the cerebellar Lox pathway, as measured by radioimmunoassay of 15-HETE.
  • 3.3. Cerebellar phospholipase A, activity was twice that of the cerebrum but was not affected by NE.
  • 4.4. Purification of Lox activity from the cerebellar homogenates produced a lower yield and enrichment when the starting material was taken from ataxic chicks, compared to the controls.
  • 5.5. In addition there were qualitative differences in the purified fractions from both groups, as seen by pH optima and kinetics.
  • 6.6. The results are consistent with the view that the cerebellum has less antioxidant protection than the cerebrum and that its higher phospholipase A2 activity and greater propensity to oxygenate arachidonic acid via the Lox pathway at the expense of the PES pathway may render this region of the brain particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage in NE.

  • 1.1. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to experimental temperatures of 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36°C for a 4-week period were used to investigate the effect of temperature acclimation on the frequency of opercular movement (FOM), growth and cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) activity in heart, liver and muscle.
  • 2.2. An exponential relationship between FOM and temperature after the first week (1010 =1.76) disappeared after the second week.
  • 3.3. The initially high FOM at temperatures of 30 or 36°C and the low FOM at 18 or 12°C changed over 4 weeks to approach the FOM of fish at 24°C.
  • 4.4. This change in the relationship of FOM to temperature from highly dependent to independent appeared to be thermal compensation.
  • 5.5. Heart and liver CCO activities were significantly affected by temperature, with the lowest activity at the approximate optimum temperature for growth, 24°C.
  • 6.6. Highest CCO activities for heart and liver occurred at both the highest and lowest temperatures.
  • 7.7. Among the three tissues, heart CCO activity was generally the highest and most affected by acclimation temperature.
  • 8.8. Muscle tissue had the lowest CCO activity and was unaffected by temperature.
  • 9.9. The high CCO activity at a cold acclimation of temperature 12°C was probably due to thermal compensation and the high activity at 36°C may have been a result of thermal stress.

  • 1.1. Aminopeptidase N was selectively released from larval midgut of silkworm, Bombyx mori, by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, and purified to a homogeneous state by ion exchange, gel filtration. Con A-Sepharose and 4-aminobenzyl phosphonic acid-agarose column chromatographies.
  • 2.2. The purified aminopeptidase N preparation showed 190.8 U/mg of specific activity. Its molecular weight was estimated to be around 100 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
  • 3.3. Purified aminopeptidase N molecule preferentially hydrolyzed Leu-, Ala- and Met-p-nitroanilide as substrates. Especially, Leu-p-nitroanilide proved to be the best substrate for aminopeptidase N from larval midgut of silkworm.
  • 4.4. By treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, two other hydrolases, alkaline phosphatase and alkaline phosphodiesterase I, were also solubilized from silkworm midgut.

  • 1.1. Phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (PI-PLC) treatment of rachitic rat matrix vesicles (MVs) released about 80% of membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase (ALP), AMPase, PPiase into the media.
  • 2.2. About 20% hydrolytic activity was not released from MV membranes by PI-PLC treatment.
  • 3.3. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot analysis showed only one immunoreactive protein corresponding to the molecular weight of ALP present in the soluble fraction after PI-PLC treatment.
  • 4.4. The specific activity of the released ALP was at least 5-fold higher than the residual activity.
  • 5.5. After PI-PLC treatment, MVs also demonstrated an 80% reduction of AMP- or βGP-dependent calcium deposition.
  • 6.6. The soluble fraction containing 80% of ALP activity was unable to support calcium deposition. The mixing of the soluble and insoluble fractions after PI-PLC treatment failed to fully restore calcium-depositing activity.

  • 1.1. Biliverdin reductase from the liver of eel, Anguilla japonica was characterized and purified with a novel enzymatic staining method on polyacrylamide electrophoretic gel.
  • 2.2. This enzyme could use both NADPH and NADH as coenzyme. The Km of NADPH was 5.2 μM, while that of NADH was 5.50 μM.
  • 3.3. The optimum reaction pH for using HADPH as coenzyme was 5.3. That for NADH was 6.1. The optimum reaction temperature is 37°C.
  • 4.4. When NADPH was used as coenzyme, the Km of biliverdin was 0.6 μM. When NADH was used as coenzyme, the Km of biliverdin was 7.0 μM.
  • 5.5. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by the concentration of biliverdin. Also, the potency of the enzyme was much less than that of the analogous enzyme isolated from mammals.
  • 6.6. This is a fairly stable enzyme with a mol. wt around 67,000. Its estimated pI was pH 3.5–4.0.
  • 7.7. This is the first time biliverdin reductase has been isolated and characterized from a vertebrate other than mammals. The property of it is quite different from that of mammals.

  • 1.1. The effect of a pyrethroid insecticide deltamethrin was investigated on transient outward potassium currents of identified snail (Helix pomatia) neurones LPa1 and RPa3.
  • 2.2. In 5 × 10−5 M concentration the deltamethrin decreased the IA amplitude and the slope of I–V curve. The activation variable was shifted left along the voltage axis by 10–20 mV, while the inactivation variable remained unchanged.
  • 3.3. Time constant of inactivation decreased, and the relaxation of IA described by one exponential. “Modified” ionic channel fraction was not observed.
  • 4.4. It is suggested that deltamethrin acts on IA channels through a different molecular mechanism to INa channels, since not only the gating machinery but the permeability of the channels were influenced.
