蜂毒突变体对紫膜质子泵功能的影响

具有光驱动质子泵功能的嗜盐菌紫膜是一种被广泛研究的生物膜系统。利用毫秒级闪光动力学谱仪研究蜂毒不同突变体对紫膜质子泵功能的影响。实验采用对硝基苯酚（ｐ－ｎｉｔｒｏｐｈｅｎｏｌ）作为ＰＨ敏感染料来研究紫膜蛋白－菌紫质（Ｂａｃｔｅｒｉｏｒｈｏｄｏｐｓｉｎ,简称）的光反应和质子泵功能。在初步的实验中发现,在一定的温度范围内,光循环过程随着温度的升高而加快,质子泵功能却基本保持不变。另外,由于蜂毒突变体具有不同的插膜特性和不同的电荷量,通过比较它们对ＢＲ质子泵功能的影响,揭示了蜂毒小肽Ｃ端和Ｎ端的不同带电状态对质子泵功能所起的作用不同。实验结果有力地证实了蜂毒或其突变体与菌紫质蛋白具有直接的相互作用,这种相互作用的强弱与蜂毒突变体电荷的多少密切相关

血卟啉衍生物（HPD）对紫膜菌紫质（bR）的光敏化作用

研究了血卟啉衍生物（ＨＰＤ）对嗜盐菌紫膜上蛋白质菌紫质（ｂＲ）的光敏化作用,结果表明,ＨＰＤ与紫膜结合并不影响ｂＲ的光学性质及活性;但经光照射、ＨＰＤ光敏反应后,ｂＲ丧失光循环活性。进一步的探测显示ｂＲ中的视黄醛色素团及色氨酸均在光敏反应中受损,反映了除视黄醛色素团有可能直接受损外,深埋于折叠蛋白内部的部分色氨酸残基。亦可能在ＨＰＤ光敏化过程中被损伤。实验证明,单线态氧（＾１Ｏ２）的作用是ＨＰＤ光     

两种不同红藻的R－藻红蛋白激发强度相关的皮秒（10~（－12）秒）荧光动力学研究

本文研究了分别从红藻多管藻（Ｐｏｌｙｓｉｐｈｏｎｉａｕｒｃｅｏｌａｔｅ）和条斑紫菜（Ｐｏｒｐｈｙｒａｙｅｚｏｅｎｓｉｓ）中提取的两种不同光谱类型的Ｒ－藻红蛋白Ｒ－ｐｈｙｃｏｅｒｙｔｈｒｉｎ激发强度相关的皮秒（１０－１２秒）荧光衰减动力学过程。结果发现：随激发光强增大,单重态－单重态激子湮灭发生（其衰减过程约为６０～８０皮秒）,并引起荧光量子产率下降。这两种Ｂ－藻红蛋白在相同光强激发下,表现出不同的单重态一单重态激子湮灭过程,主要因它们处于激发态的发色团数目不同所致。

Triton X-100对细菌视紫红质中间产物M_(412)的效应

本文研究用非离子表面活性剂Triton X-100处理后的细菌视紫红质(BR Bacteriorhodo-psin)光循环中间产物M_(412)动力学过程的变化.实验结果表明,用不同浓度的Triton处理pH=6.5的BR体系时,其中间产物M_(412).快衰减成分的半衰期(τ_(1/2)~f)在Triton浓度为0.05%(w/w)附近突然变慢,随着Triton浓度的加大,τ_(1/2)~f又逐渐加快;慢衰减部分的半衰期(τ_(1/2)~s)则随Tri-ton浓度的增加逐渐变慢.BR的生色团峰发生蓝移.说明不同浓度的Triton在水溶液中聚集状态不同,可不同程度地破坏膜脂的液晶态结构,从而导致镶嵌在其中的BR发生构象的变化,使转运质子的氢键通道受到不同程度的影响,故质子泵转运通道发生改变、致使M_(412)的衰减速率改变.     

Triton X-100 can alter the temporal sequence of the light-driven proton pump of archaerhodopsin 4

We report that Triton X-100 can alter the temporal sequence of the light-induced proton uptake and release of archaerhodopsin 4 (AR4), a proton pumping protein in a species of Halobacteria from a Tibetan salt lake. Under physiological conditions, AR4 isolated from the bacterium exhibits a reversed temporal order of proton release and uptake compared to what is observed for bacteriorhodopsin (BR). However, in the presence of Triton X-100 early proton release was observed in AR4 at neutral pH by us. Further, this temporal order for light-driven proton release and uptake for AR4 was found to be recovered after the removal of Triton X-100 by Biobeads. This phenomenon of detergent-induced alteration of the order of proton release and uptake has not yet been reported in any other retinal-containing membrane protein such as BR. Our findings indicate that the function of AR4 is influenced by its self-assembled state, and meanwhile imply some subtle protein-lipid interactions or protein-protein interactions in adjusting the proton pumping behavior of AR4.

Purification of bacteriorhodopsin and characterization of mature and partially processed forms

Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) essentially free of native lipids has been prepared in a highly stable state. Purple membrane was solubilized in Triton X-100 and BR was purified by size exclusion chromatography using 3-[cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-2-hydroxyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (CHAPSO) detergent at pH 5. Molar ratios of phospholipid/BR ranged from 0.4 to 0.05 corresponding to 94-98% phospholipid removal. Purified BR has an absorbance ratio (A280nm/A548nm) of 1.5-1.6 in the dark-adapted state which is the highest purified BR/protein ratio reported to date. The purified BR in CHAPSO shows maximum stability in the pH range 5.0-5.5. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis profiles of native purple membrane and solubilized BR from most Halobacterium halobium JW-3 cultures show 3 higher molecular weight bands in addition to BR. Immunological staining and amino acid sequencing indicates that these additional proteins are partially processed forms of the BR precursor protein. The BR preprotein contains 13 additional amino acids on the NH2 terminus which are removed by post-translational processing in at least four steps. Isoelectric focusing separated most delipidated and non-delipidated BR samples into 8 bands. Incomplete BR post-translational processing BR is thought to be largely responsible for the multiplicity of isoelectric BR species. The principal components have pI values of 5.20 and 5.24 and both have absorption maxima at 550 nm, characteristic of detergent-solubilized BR. BR in Triton X-100 or nonylglucoside, delipidated BR in CHAPSO, and BR in intact purple membrane all have a dark-adapted ratio of 13-cis to all-trans-retinal of 1.9:1.     

Assembly of Trp1 in a signaling complex associated with caveolin-scaffolding lipid raft domains

Trp1 has been proposed as a component of the store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOC) channel. However, neither the molecular mechanism of SOC nor the role of Trp in this process is yet understood. We have examined possible molecular interactions involved in the regulation of SOC and Trp1 and report here for the first time that Trp1 is assembled in signaling complex associated with caveolin-scaffolding lipid raft domains. Endogenous hTrp1 and caveolin-1 were present in low density fractions of Triton X-100-extracted human submandibular gland cell membranes. Depletion of plasma membrane cholesterol increased Triton X-100 solubility of Trp1 and inhibited carbachol-stimulated Ca(2+) signaling. Importantly, thapsigargin stimulated Ca(2+) influx, but not internal Ca(2+) release, and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP(3))-stimulated I(soc) were also attenuated. Furthermore, both anti-Trp1 and anti-caveolin-1 antibodies co-immunoprecipitated hTrp1, caveolin-1, Galpha(q/11), and IP(3) receptor-type 3 (IP(3)R3). These results demonstrate that caveolar microdomains provide a scaffold for (i) assembly of key Ca(2+) signaling proteins into a complex and (ii) coordination of the molecular interactions leading to the activation of SOC. Importantly, we have shown that Trp1 is also localized in this microdomain where it interacts with one or more components of this complex, including IP(3)R3. This finding is potentially important in elucidating the physiological function of Trp.     

Association of a photoreceptor-specific tetraspanin protein,ROM-1, with triton X-100-resistant membrane rafts from rod outer segment disk membranes

This study reports the isolation and characterization of a Triton X-100-resistant membrane fraction from homogenates of rod outer segment (ROS) disk membranes purified free of the surrounding plasma membrane. A portion of the ROS disk membrane was found to be resistant to Triton X-100 extraction at 4 degrees C. This detergent-resistant fraction was isolated as a low buoyant density band on sucrose density gradients and exhibited an increase in light scattering detected at 600 nm. Biochemical analysis of the Triton X-100-resistant fraction showed it to be enriched in cholesterol and sphingomyelin relative to phospholipid and in phospholipid relative to protein compared with the soluble fraction. The Triton X-100-resistant membranes described herein did not arise simply from partial solubilization of the ROS disk membranes because detergent-treated low buoyant density fractions isolated from homogenates with octyl glucopyranoside had cholesterol and sphingomyelin content indistinguishable from that of solubilized ROS disk homogenates. Analysis of proteins associated with the Triton X-100-resistant fraction showed it to be enriched in the rim-specific protein ROM-1 and caveolin; surprisingly, the fusion protein peripherin/rds (where rds is retinal degeneration slow), also localized to the disk rim, was entirely absent from the membrane raft domain. The lipid profiles of the Triton X-100-resistant membranes were virtually identical in preparations homogenized in either the light or dark. Slightly more ROM-1 was recovered from samples prepared in the light (23%) than from samples prepared in the dark (13%), but peripherin/rds could not be detected in either preparation. When the Triton X-100-resistant membranes were treated with methyl-beta-cyclodextran to deplete membrane cholesterol, the resultant membranes contained slightly lower levels of ROM-1, specifically in the dimeric form. Cholesterol depletion also resulted in the collapse of the large caveolin complex to monomeric caveolae. The results presented herein characterize a pool of ROM-1, a photoreceptor tetraspanin protein, that may play a regulatory role in peripherin/rds-dependent fusion.

Effect of Triton X-100 on properties of acetylcholinesterase from human erythrocytes

The effect of Triton X-100 on catalytic properties of acetylcholinesterase from human erythrocytes under acetylcholine hydrolysis, on sensitivity of acetylcholinesterase to specific phosphoorganic inhibitors and eserine, and on the mobility and isoenyme spectrum under analytical electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel is investigated. Triton X-100, independently on its concentration within 0.05-1.0%, slightly changes V and [S]opt values and increases Km value in 2-3 times. The inhibitory effect of Triton X-100 is mainly competitive, 0.5% Triton X-100 decreases bimolecular constant (kII) of the interaction of acetylcholinesterase with phosphoorganic inhibitor and eserine in 2.5-4 times. In the presence of phosphoorganic inhibitor, kII sharply decreased when 0.02% Triton X-100 was added, and then it did not change under the increase of Triton X-100 concentration up to 1.0%. On the basis of these data, an analytical method of estimating Triton X-100 content in protein solution is proposed. The introduction of 0.1% Triton X-100 into polyacrylamide gel results in considerable quantitative redistribution of acetylcholinesterase isoenzyme fractions and in the change of the mobility of one fraction under electrophoresis.
