Integral membrane polypeptides of rat liver peroxisomes: topology and response to different metabolic states 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Rats were treated with clofibrate, a hypolipidemic drug, and with thyroxine. Both drugs which are known to cause peroxisome proliferation, and a concomitant increase in peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation activity in liver increased one of the major integral peroxisomal membrane polypeptides (PMPs), with apparent molecular mass of 69-kDa, six- and twofold, respectively. On the other hand hypothyroidism caused a decrease in peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation activity and considerably lowered the concentration of PMP 69 in the peroxisomal membrane. Two other PMPs with apparent molecular masses of 36 and 22 kDa were not influenced by these treatments. The PMPs with apparent molecular masses of 42, 28, and 26 kDa were shown to be derived from the 69-kDa polypeptide by the activity of a yet uncharacterized endogenous protease during isolation of peroxisomes. Limited proteolysis of intact peroxisomes using proteinase K and subtilisin further substantiated that some portion of the 69-kDa polypeptide extends into the cytoplasm. The 36- and the 22-kDa polypeptides were accessible to proteolytic attack to a much lower extent and, therefore, are supposed to be rather deeply embedded within the peroxisomal membrane. It is demonstrated that peroxisomal acyl-CoA synthetase, an integral PMP extending partially into the cytoplasm, and PMP 69 are not identical polypeptides. Comparison of the peroxisomal membrane with that of mitochondria and microsomes revealed that the 69- and 22-kDa polypeptides as well as the bifunctional protein of the peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway were specifically located only in peroxisomes. Considerable amounts of a polypeptide cross-reacting with the antiserum against the 36-kDa polypeptide were found in mitochondria. 相似文献

Using a combination of in vivo and in vitro assays, we characterized the sorting pathway and molecular targeting signal for the Arabidopsis 22-kD peroxisome membrane protein (PMP22), an integral component of the membrane of all peroxisomes in the mature plant. We show that nascent PMP22 is sorted directly from the cytosol to peroxisomes and that it is inserted into the peroxisomal boundary membrane with its N- and C-termini facing the cytosol. This direct sorting of PMP22 to peroxisomes contrasts with the indirect sorting reported previously for cottonseed (Gossypium hirsutum) ascorbate peroxidase, an integral PMP that sorts to peroxisomes via a subdomain of the endoplasmic reticulum. Thus, at least two different sorting pathways for PMPs exist in plant cells. At least four distinct regions within the N-terminal one-half of PMP22, including a positively charged domain present in most peroxisomal integral membrane-destined proteins, functions in a cooperative manner in efficient peroxisomal targeting and insertion. In addition, targeting with high fidelity to peroxisomes requires all four membrane-spanning domains in PMP22. Together, these results illustrate that the PMP22 membrane peroxisomal targeting signal is complex and that different elements within the signal may be responsible for mediating unique aspects of PMP22 biogenesis, including maintaining the solubility before membrane insertion, targeting to peroxisomes, and ensuring proper assembly in the peroxisomal boundary membrane. 相似文献

Characterization of the 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein, an ATP binding cassette transporter 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70) is one of the major components of rat liver peroxisomal membranes and belongs to a superfamily of proteins known as ATP binding cassette transporters. PMP70 is markedly induced by administration of hypolipidemic agents in parallel with peroxisome proliferation and induction of peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation enzymes. To characterize the role of PMP70 in biogenesis and function of peroxisomes, we transfected the cDNA of rat PMP70 into Chinese hamster ovary cells and established cell lines stably expressing PMP70. The content of PMP70 in the transfectants increased about 5-fold when compared with the control cells. A subcellular fractionation study showed that overexpressed PMP70 was enriched in peroxisomes. This peroxisomal localization was confirmed by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy. The number of immuno-gold particles corresponding to PMP70 on peroxisomes increased markedly in the transfectants, but the size and the number of peroxisomes were essentially the same in both the transfectants and the control cells. beta-Oxidation of palmitic acid increased about 2-3-fold in the transfectants, whereas the oxidation of lignoceric acid decreased about 30-40%. When intact peroxisomes prepared from both the cell lines were incubated with palmitoyl-CoA, oxidation was stimulated with ATP, but the degree of the stimulation was higher in the transfectants than in the control cells. Furthermore, we established three Chinese hamster ovary cell lines stably expressing mutant PMP70. In these cells, beta-oxidation of palmitic acid decreased markedly. These results suggest that PMP70 is involved in metabolic transport of long chain acyl-CoA across peroxisomal membranes and that increase of PMP70 is not associated with proliferation of peroxisomes. 相似文献

In rat liver, peroxisome proliferators induce profound changes in the number and protein composition of peroxisomes, which upon subcellular fractionation is reflected in heterogeneity in sedimentation properties of peroxisome populations. In this study we have investigated the time course of induction of the peroxisomal proteins catalase, acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO) and the 70 kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70) in different subcellular fractions. Rats were fed a di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) containing diet for 8 days and livers were removed at different time-points, fractionated by differential centrifugation into nuclear, heavy and light mitochondrial, microsomal and soluble fractions, and organelle marker enzymes were measured. Catalase was enriched mainly in the light mitochondrial and soluble fractions, while ACO was enriched in the nuclear fraction (about 30%) and in the soluble fraction. PMP70 was found in all fractions except the soluble fraction. DEHP treatment induced ACO, catalase and PMP70 activity and immunoreactive protein, but the time course and extent of induction was markedly different in the various subcellular fractions. All three proteins were induced more rapidly in the nuclear fraction than in the light mitochondrial or microsomal fractions, with catalase and PMP70 being maximally induced in the nuclear fraction already at 2 days of treatment. Refeeding a normal diet quickly normalized most parameters. These results suggest that induction of a heavy peroxisomal compartment is an early event and that induction of 'small peroxisomes', containing PMP70 and ACO, is a late event. These data are compatible with a model where peroxisomes initially proliferate by growth of a heavy, possibly reticular-like, structure rather than formation of peroxisomes by division of pre-existing organelles into small peroxisomes that subsequently grow. The various peroxisome populations that can be separated by subcellular fractionation may represent peroxisomes at different stages of biogenesis. 相似文献

In vitro insertion of the 22-kD peroxisomal membrane protein into isolated rat liver peroxisomes 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
《The Journal of cell biology》1993,123(6):1717-1725
The membrane insertion of the 22-kD integral peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP 22) was studied in a system in which peroxisomes isolated from rat liver were incubated with the [35S]methionine-labeled in vitro translation product of PMP 22 mRNA. Membrane insertion of PMP 22 was demonstrated by protease treatment of peroxisomes in the absence and presence of detergent. Approximately 35% of total in vitro translated PMP 22 became protease resistant after a 1-h incubation at 26 degrees C. Import was dependent on time and temperature, did not require ATP or GTP and was not inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide treatment of neither the soluble components of the translation mixture nor of the isolated peroxisomes. In contrast to these results it was recently shown that the import of the peroxisomal marker, firefly luciferase, into peroxisomes of permeabilized cells was dependent on ATP hydrolysis and was blocked by N-ethylmaleimide pretreatment of the cytosol-depleted cells (Rapp et al., 1993; Wendland and Subramani, 1993). Therefore, the present data suggest that insertion of PMP 22 into the peroxisomal membrane and translocation of firefly luciferase into peroxisomes follow distinct mechanisms. At low temperature binding of PMP 22 to the peroxisomal membrane was not influenced whereas insertion was strongly inhibited. Pretreatment of peroxisomes with subtilisin reduced binding to a low level and completely abolished insertion. Therefore it is suggested that binding is prerequisite to insertion and that insertion may be mediated by a proteinaceous receptor. 相似文献

Peroxisomes are thought to be formed by division of pre-existing peroxisomes after the import of newly synthesized proteins. However, it has been recently suggested that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) provides an alternative de novo mechanism for peroxisome biogenesis in some cells. To test a possible role of the ER-Golgi transit in peroxisome biogenesis in mammalian cells, we evaluated the biogenesis of three peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs): ALDRP (adrenoleukodystrophy related protein), PMP70 and Pex3p in CHO cells. We constructed chimeric genes encoding these PMPs and green fluorescent protein (GFP), and transiently transfected them to wild type and mutant CHO cells, in which normal peroxisomes were replaced by peroxisomal membrane ghosts. The expressed proteins were targeted to peroxisomes and peroxisomal ghosts correctly in the presence or absence of Brefeldin A (BFA), a drug known to block the ER-Golgi transit. Furthermore, low temperature did not disturb the targeting of Pex3p-GFP to peroxisomes. We also constructed two chimeric proteins of PMPs containing an ER retention signal "DEKKMP": GFP-ALDRP-DEKKMP and myc- Pex3p-DEKKMP. These proteins were mostly targeted to peroxisomes. No colocalization with an ER maker was found. These results suggest that the classical ER-Golgi pathway does not play a major role in the biogenesis of mammalian PMPs. 相似文献

Peroxisomes are components of virtually all eukaryotic cells. While much is known about peroxisomal matrix protein import, our understanding of how peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) are targeted and inserted into the peroxisome membrane is extremely limited. Here, we show that PEX19 binds a broad spectrum of PMPs, displays saturable PMP binding, and interacts with regions of PMPs required for their targeting to peroxisomes. Furthermore, mislocalization of PEX19 to the nucleus leads to nuclear accumulation of newly synthesized PMPs. At steady state, PEX19 is bimodally distributed between the cytoplasm and peroxisome, with most of the protein in the cytoplasm. We propose that PEX19 may bind newly synthesized PMPs and facilitate their insertion into the peroxisome membrane. This hypothesis is supported by the observation that the loss of PEX19 results in degradation of PMPs and/or mislocalization of PMPs to the mitochondrion. 相似文献

We previously reported that novel Mg(2+)-ATPases were induced in rat liver peroxisomes by clofibrate administration and that these activities consisted of at least two types of enzymes, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-sensitive and -resistant. Here we present evidence that neither of these major peroxisomal ATPases is associated with the 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70), because: (i) proteinase K treatment of peroxisomes resulted in inactivation of only NEM-sensitive ATPase, whereas disappeared PMP70 completely; (ii) NEM-sensitive ATPase activity was barely immunoprecipitated with anti-PMP70 IgG; (iii) the solubilized ATPases behaved differently from PMP70 on native PAGE; and finally (iv), the major peroxisomal ATPases were separated from PMP70 on gel filtration chromatography. 相似文献

The presence and intracellular localization of peroxisomal integral membrane proteins (PMP) were investigated in liver and cultured skin fibroblasts from control subjects and patients with the Zellweger syndrome and related disorders in which peroxisomes are virtually absent. Immunoblotting experiments showed that 22, 36 and 69 kDa PMPs were present and were confined to the membranous fraction both in the control liver and in the livers from the Zellweger patients. The 22 and 36 kDa PMPs were present in significantly lower amounts in the patients' livers than in the control liver. A reduced amount of the 69 kDa PMP was found in liver from one Zellweger but not in liver from another. The subcellular localization in fibroblasts of catalase and the 69 kDa PMP was studied by indirect immunofluorescence. A characteristic punctate fluorescence was seen in control cells incubated with either anti-(catalase) or with anti-(69 kDa PMP). Incubation of mutant cells with anti-(catalase) resulted in a diffuse fluorescence, whereas with anti-(69 kDa PMP) fluorescent particles were visualized which, in some cell lines, were larger and fewer in number than in control cells. Cryosections of control and mutant cells were examined by electron microscopy using immunogold labeling. Control cells contained small structures consisting of a single membrane enclosing a homogeneous matrix; the membranes reacted with anti-(69 kDa PMP) and the matrix with anti-(catalase). The mutant cell lines contained spherical or ellipsoidal structures whose membranes reacted with anti-(69 kDa PMP); no labeling was observed with anti-(catalase). We conclude that peroxisomal ghosts, the membranes of which contain the 69 kDa PMP, are present in peroxisome-deficient cell lines from all complementation groups studied so far. 相似文献

Peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) from the Swiss-Webster mouse are analyzed and compared to those of rats and humans using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and immunoblotting. A purification procedure for fresh mouse, rat, or human biopsy liver which enriches peroxisomal/mitochondrial marker enzyme ratios over 100-fold is characterized. When analyzed by SDS-PAGE, membranes of purified liver peroxisomes are shown to contain the same complement of 145-, 70-, 55-, 36-, and 22-kDa PMPs in rats, mice, and humans. A rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against mouse peroxisomal membranes demonstrates immunoreactivity to 145- and 70-kDa proteins in fresh liver homogenates from all three species and in control or Zellweger syndrome fibroblasts from humans. Human autopsy or placental tissues which were refrigerated before analysis exhibited 105-, 55-, and 36-kDa peptides which may be derived from the 145- and 70-kDa peptides. Such conversions, if related to degradation, may explain difficulties in purifying peroxisomes from human autopsy specimens. Variable amounts of the 55-kDa peptide also occurred in mouse adrenal and lung, and the conversion of higher to lower molecular weight PMPs could not be demonstrated by in vitro incubation of mouse liver. Further definition of the structure and variability of mammalian PMPs should be helpful in understanding polyenzymopathies such as Zellweger syndrome. 相似文献

In order to clarify the peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs), we characterized one of the major PMPs, PMP38. The deduced amino acid sequence for its cDNA in Arabidopsis thaliana contained polypeptides with 331 amino acids and had high similarity with those of Homo sapiens PMP34 and Candida boidinii PMP47 known as homologues of mitochondrial ATP/ADP carrier protein. We expected PMP38 to be localized on peroxisomal membranes, because it had the membrane peroxisomal targeting signal. Cell fractionation and immunocytochemical analysis using pumpkin cotyledons revealed that PMP38 is localized on peroxisomal membranes as an integral membrane protein. The amount of PMP38 in pumpkin cotyledons increased and reached the maximum protein level after 6 d in the dark but decreased thereafter. Illumination of the seedlings caused a significant decrease in the amount of the protein. These results clearly showed that the membrane protein PMP38 in glyoxysomes changes dramatically during the transformation of glyoxysomes to leaf peroxisomes, as do the other glyoxysomal enzymes, especially enzymes of the fatty acid beta-oxidation cycle, that are localized in the matrix of glyoxysomes. 相似文献

Peroxisomal proteins are synthesized on free polysomes and then transported from the cytoplasm to peroxisomes. This process is mediated by two short well-defined targeting signals in peroxisomal matrix proteins, but a well-defined targeting signal has not yet been described for peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs). One assumption in virtually all prior studies of PMP targeting is that a given protein contains one, and only one, distinct targeting signal. Here, we show that the metabolite transporter PMP34, an integral PMP, contains at least two nonoverlapping sets of targeting information, either of which is sufficient for insertion into the peroxisome membrane. We also show that another integral PMP, the peroxin PEX13, also contains two independent sets of peroxisomal targeting information. These results challenge a major assumption of most PMP targeting studies. In addition, we demonstrate that PEX19, a factor required for peroxisomal membrane biogenesis, interacts with the two minimal targeting regions of PMP34. Together, these results raise the interesting possibility that PMP import may require novel mechanisms to ensure the solubility of integral PMPs before their insertion in the peroxisome membrane, and that PEX19 may play a central role in this process. 相似文献

Pex19p is a peroxin involved in peroxisomal membrane biogenesis and probably functions as a chaperone and/or soluble receptor specific for cargo peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs). To elucidate the functional constituents of Pex19p in terms of the protein structure, we investigated its domain architecture and binding affinity toward various PMPs and peroxins. The human Pex19p cDNA was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and a highly purified sample of the Pex19p protein was prepared. When PMP22 was synthesized by cell-free translation in the presence of Pex19p, the PMP22 bound to Pex19p was soluble, whereas PMP22 alone was insoluble. This observation shows that Pex19p plays a role in capturing PMP and maintaining its solubility. In a similar manner, Pex19p was bound to PMP70 and Pex16p as well as the Pex3p soluble fragment. Limited proteolysis analyses revealed that Pex19p consists of the C-terminal core domain flanking the flexible N-terminal region. Separation of Pex19p into its N- and C-terminal halves abolished interactions with PMP22, PMP70, and Pex16p. In contrast, the flexible N-terminal half of Pex19p was bound to the Pex3p soluble fragment, suggesting that the binding mode of Pex3p toward Pex19p differs from that of other PMPs. This idea is supported by our detection of the Pex19p-Pex3p-PMP22 ternary complex. 相似文献

The mechanisms by which peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) are targeted to and inserted into membranes are unknown, as are the required components. We show that among a collection of 16 Saccharomyces cerevisiae peroxisome biogenesis (pex) mutants, two mutants, pex3Delta and pex19Delta, completely lack detectable peroxisomal membrane structures and mislocalize their PMPs to the cytosol where they are rapidly degraded. The other pexDelta mutants contain membrane structures that are properly inherited during vegetative growth and that house multiple PMPs. Even Pex15p requires Pex3p and Pex19p for localization to peroxisomal membranes. This PMP was previously hypothesized to travel via the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to peroxisomes. We provide evidence that ER-accumulated Pex15p is not a sorting intermediate on its way to peroxisomes. Our results show that Pex3p and Pex19p are required for the proper localization of all PMPs tested, including Pex15p, whereas the other Pex proteins might only be required for targeting/import of matrix proteins. 相似文献

Treatment of rats with a new hypocholesterolemic drug BM 15766 induces proliferation of peroxisomes in pericentral regions of the liver lobule with distinct alterations of the peroxisomal membrane (Baumgart, E., K. Stegmeier, F. H. Schmidt, and H. D. Fahimi. 1987. Lab. Invest. 56:554-564). We have used ultrastructural cytochemistry in conjunction with immunoblotting and immunoelectron microscopy to investigate the effects of this drug on peroxisomal membranes. Highly purified peroxisomal fractions were obtained by Metrizamide gradient centrifugation from control and treated rats. Immunoblots prepared from such peroxisomal fractions incubated with antibodies to 22-, 26-, and 70-kD peroxisomal membrane proteins revealed that the treatment with BM 15766 induced only the 70-kD protein. In sections of normal liver embedded in Lowicryl K4M, all three membrane proteins of peroxisomes could be localized by the postembedding technique. The strongest labeling was obtained with the 22-kD antibody followed by the 70-kD and 26-kD antibodies. In treated animals, double-membraned loops with negative catalase reaction in their lumen, resembling smooth endoplasmic reticulum segments as well as myelin-like figures, were noted in the proximity of some peroxisomes. Serial sectioning revealed that the loops seen at some distance from peroxisomes in the cytoplasm were always continuous with the peroxisomal membranes. The double-membraned loops were consistently negative for glucose-6-phosphatase, a marker for endoplasmic reticulum, but were distinctly labeled with antibodies to peroxisomal membrane proteins. Our observations indicate that these membranous structures are part of the peroxisomal membrane system. They could provide a membrane reservoir for the proliferation of peroxisomes and the expansion of this intracellular compartment. 相似文献

In recent years, it has become evident that peroxisomes form part of the endomembrane system. Peroxisomes can form from the ER via a maturation process and they can multiply by growth and division, whereby the ER provides membrane for growth and ongoing fission (Figure 1). Until very recently, it was widely accepted that most peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) insert directly into peroxisomes, whereas a small subset of PMPs traffic via the ER. In this minireview, we focus mainly on PMP biogenesis, and highlight recent advances in peroxisomal matrix protein import, fission and segregation in yeast. 相似文献

Peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) are encoded by the nuclear genome and translated on cytoplasmic ribosomes. Newly synthesized PMPs can be targeted directly from the cytoplasm to peroxisomes or travel to peroxisomes via the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The mechanisms responsible for the targeting of these proteins to the peroxisomal membrane are still rather poorly understood. However, it is clear that the trafficking of PMPs to peroxisomes depends on the presence of cis-acting targeting signals, called mPTSs. These mPTSs show great variability both in the identity and number of requisite residues. An emerging view is that mPTSs consist of at least two functionally distinct domains: a targeting element, which directs the newly synthesized PMP from the cytoplasm to its target membrane, and a membrane-anchoring sequence, which is required for the permanent insertion of the protein into the peroxisomal membrane. In this review, we summarize our knowledge of the mPTSs currently identified. 相似文献

The 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70) is one of the major integral membrane proteins of rat liver peroxisomes. cDNA clones for PMP70 were isolated and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence (659 amino acid residues) revealed that the carboxyl-terminal region of PMP70 has strong sequence similarities to a group of ATP-binding proteins such as MalK and Mdr. These proteins form a superfamily and are involved in various biological processes including membrane transport. Limited protease treatment of peroxisomes showed that the ATP-binding domain of PMP70 is exposed to the cytosol. The hydropathy profile, in comparison with those of several other members of the ATP-binding protein superfamily, suggests that PMP70 is a transmembrane protein possibly forming a channel. Based on these results, we propose that PMP70 is involved in active transport across the peroxisomal membrane. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of three major peroxisomal membrane polypeptides of rat liver was investigated. Total hepatic RNA extracted by the guanidinium/CsCl method from three control and three di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (a peroxisomal proliferator)-fed rats was translated in vitro in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate protein-synthesizing system. Translation products were immunoprecipitated by the antibodies against peroxisomal membrane polypeptides, subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and analyzed by fluorography. The in vitro translation products of 70, 26, and 22 kDa peroxisomal membrane polypeptides were apparently of the same size as the respective mature polypeptides. The ratio of translatable mRNA levels for the 70, 26, and 22 kDa polypeptides in di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate-fed rats to those in control rats were 5.4, 11.4, and 2.7, respectively. The synthesis of these three polypeptides with the free polysome fraction from di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate-fed rats was more active than that with the membrane-bound polysome fraction, whereas the synthesis of albumin with the free polysome fraction was 27% of that with the membrane-bound polysome fraction. These results indicate that the peroxisomal major membrane polypeptides are synthesized on free polysomes and transported to peroxisomal membrane without any apparent proteolytic processing, and that the induction of these polypeptides by administration of a peroxisomal proliferator corresponds well to the induction of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzymes. The data also support the idea that peroxisomes are organized from pre-existing peroxisomes. 相似文献

Boundary membranes were recovered from glyoxysomes, transition peroxisomes, and leaf-type peroxisomes purified from cotyledons of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) at three stages of postgerminative growth. After membranes were washed in 100 mM Na2CO3 (pH 11.5), integral peroxisome membrane proteins (PMPs) were solubilized in buffered aminocaproic acid/dodecyl maltoside (0.63 M/1.5%) and analyzed by nondenaturing and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Six prominent nondenatured PMP complexes and 10 prominent SDS-denatured polypeptides were identified in the membranes of the three types of peroxisomes. A nondenatured complex of approximately 140 kD, composed mainly of 24.5-kD polypeptides, decreased temporally, independently of seedling exposure to white, blue, or red light; only far-red light seemed to prevent its decrease. PMP complexes of approximately 120 and 70 kD, in contrast, were present at all stages and changed in polypeptide content. It remains to be determined whether these data reflect changes within in vivo complexes or within complexes formed following/during detergent solubilization. Conversion of glyoxysomes to leaf-type peroxisomes in white or red light after a 2-d dark period was accompanied by the appearance of three SDS-denatured PMPs: 27.5, 28, and 47 kD. The former two became part of the PMP120 and 70 complexes, as well as part of a new PMP130 complex that also possessed the PMP47. Growth of seedlings in blue or far-red light did not promote the appearance of PMPs 27.5 or 28. Blue light promoted the appearance of PMP47, and far-red light seemed to prevent its appearance. Chlorophyll likely is not the photoreceptor involved in accumulation of PMPs because the PMP composition is distinctly different in seedlings irradiated with red or blue light of comparable fluence rates. Several lines of evidence indicate that the synthesis and acquisition of membrane and all matrix proteins are not coupled. The data provide evidence for a change in PMP composition when sunflower or any other oilseed glyoxysomes are converted to leaf-type peroxisomes and suggest that the change is regulated by both photobiological and temporal mechanisms. 相似文献
