Anterior pituitary dopamine receptors. Demonstration of interconvertible high and low affinity states of the D-2 dopamine receptor 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The interactions of dopaminergic agonists and antagonists with binding sites in bovine anterior pituitary membranes have been investigated with radioligand-binding techniques and computer-modeling procedures. 3H-labeled agonist binding is stereospecific, reversible, saturable, and of high affinity. The rank order of catecholamines, phenothiazines, and related drugs in competing for 3H-agonist binding is indicative of interactions with a D-2 dopamine receptor. Both agonist/3H-agonist and antagonist/3H-agonist competition curves are monophasic and noncooperative (nH = 1) with computer analysis indicating a single class of binding sites. Specific 3H-agonist binding can be completely inhibited by guanine nucleotides. GppNHp us the most potent nucleotide followed by GTP and GDP which are equipotent. The equilibrium binding capacity for 3H-labeled antagonists is twice that for 3H-agonists. Unlabeled antagonists inhibit 3H-antagonist binding competitively and exhibit antagonist/3H-antagonist competition curves which model best to a state of homogeneous affinity. In contrast, unlabeled agonists inhibit 3H-antagonist binding in a heterogeneous fashion displaying multiphasic (nH less than 1) competition curves which can be resolved into high and low affinity binding sites. In the presence of saturating concentrations of guanine nucleotides, however, the agonist/3H-antagonist curves model best to a single affinity state which is identical with the low affinity state seen in control curves. The binding data can be explained by postulating two states of the D-2 dopamine receptor, inducible by agonists but not antagonists and modulated by guanine nucleotides. 相似文献

The binding of the opioid antagonist [3H]-naloxone to immunocompetent cells of the mouse, F1(CBA x C57B1/6), in medium 199 has been studied. The binding was reversible and reached a maximum during 15-20 min at 37 degrees C. The stereospecificity profile was proven to correspond to mu-type receptors. The binding curve was characterized by high positive cooperativity (nH = 2.3, IC50 = 5 nM). Mitogenic stimulation by Con A, SEA, and ML caused an increase in the number of receptors. Besides, stimulation by an antigen (ovalbumin) changed the binding parameters. The distribution of binding sites for naloxone on various immunocompetent cells was investigated. The maximal number of sites was found on lymphocytes of lymph nodes and bone marrow cells. A conclusion is drawn that both T- and non-T-cells play a role in naloxone binding. 相似文献

Evaluation of the parameters describing the binding of protons to clusters of interacting sites requires some reasonable assumptions and procedures because it is impossible to observe an unperturbed site in its interacting environment. When the unperturbed sites are not identical, individual site binding data allow for the evaluation of the differences (or ratios) between the unperturbed (or intrinsic) binding constants but not their actual values (or the interaction energies). In this paper we extend our previous treatment of the ionization of clusters in order to generalize pairwise isotropic interactions and take into account the present availability of individual site binding data. 相似文献

Guidelines are given to distinguish different kinds of binding inhomogeneities of non-radiolabeled ligands in crude extracts of receptors if an appropriate 'binding analogue' of the displacers is available in radiolabeled form. Three minimal models for the simplest types of binding inhomogeneities are analysed theoretically. These models include a cooperative system (with two interacting sites on the same receptor molecule) and two non-cooperative systems (one of them with a single-site receptor having two conformational states in equilibrium and the other with two single-site receptors independent of each other). In certain cases one can distinguish these systems experimentally. Furthermore, if a group of displacers is already classified according to the above models, then dissociation constants can be determined. The quantitative comparison of these displacers on the basis of their dissociation constants is more appropriate (e.g. in Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship studies) than on the basis of their ID50 and Ki values or Hill coefficients, which is often done. 相似文献

A theoretical analysis of non-stationary states in membrane pores is given in this paper, which is based on the rate-theory treatment of transport processes. The principal aim of this study is to give a basis for the interpretation of relaxation experiments in which an external parameter, such as the voltage across the membrane, is suddenly displaced. From the time course of the membrane current information about the microscopic properties of the pore may be obtained. The pore is considered as a sequence of binding sites, separated by energy barriers over which the ion has to jump. It is found that under certain conditions damped oscillations occur after the initial perturbations of the membrane. In all other cases the approach towards the steady state may be described by a discrete spectrum of n relaxation times, where n is the number of binding sites within the pore. In the case of a pore with regular energy profile (internal barriers of identical height) the relaxation times may be obtained as the roots of Tchebycheff polynomials for arbitrary n. It is shown that the present treatment becomes identical with the continuum analysis of transport processes in the limit of large n. 相似文献

Inhibition of yeast mitochondrial F1-ATPase, F0F1-ATPase and submitochondrial particles by rhodamines and ethidium bromide 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
ATP hydrolysis by F1-ATPase is strongly inhibited by cationic rhodamines; neutral rhodamines are very poor inhibitors. Rhodamine 6G is a noncompetitive inhibitor of purified F0F1-ATPase and submitochondrial particles, however, an uncompetitive inhibitor of F1-ATPase (KI approximately equal to 2.4 microM for all three enzyme forms). Ethidium bromide is a noncompetitive inhibitor of F0F1-ATPase, submitochondrial particles and also F1-ATPase (KI approximately equal to 270 microM). Neither of the inhibitors affects the negative cooperativity (nH approximately equal to 0.7). The non-identical binding sites for rhodamine 6G and ethidium bromide are located on the F1-moiety and are topologically distinct from the catalytic site. Binding of the inhibitors prevents the conformational changes essential for energy transduction. It is concluded that the inhibitor binding sites are involved in proton translocation. In F1-ATPase, binding of MgATP at a catalytic site causes conformational changes, which allosterically induce the correct structure of the rhodamine 6G binding site. In F0F1-ATPase, this conformation of the F1-moiety exists a priori, due to allosteric interactions with F0-subunits. The binding site for ethidium bromide on F1-ATPase does not require substrate binding at the catalytic site and is not affected by F0F1-subunit interactions. 相似文献

Heterogeneity of γ-Aminobutyric Acid/Benzodiazepine/β-Carboline Receptor Complex in Rat Spinal Cord 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
The properties of muscimol, beta-carboline (BC), and benzodiazepine (BZD) binding to crude synaptic membranes were studied in the spinal cord and cerebellum of rats. In cerebellar membranes, the density of high-affinity [3H]muscimol and [3H]6,7-dimethoxy-4-ethyl-beta-carboline ([3H]BCCM) binding sites is almost identical to that of [3H]flunitrazepam ([3H]FLU) or [3H]flumazenil (Ro 15-1788; ethyl-8-fluoro-5,6-dihydro-5-methyl-6-oxo-4H-imidazo[1,5-a] [1-4]benzodiazepine-3-carboxylate). In contrast to the cerebellum, the number of muscimol and BC binding sites in rat spinal cord is approximately 20-25% of the number of FLU or flumazenil binding sites. Moreover, in spinal cord membranes, BC recognition site ligands displace [3H]-flumazenil bound to those sites, with low affinity and a Hill slope significantly less than 1; the potency of the different BCs in displacing [3H]flumazenil is 20-50-fold lower in the spinal cord than in the cerebellum. [3H]Flumazenil is not displaced from spinal cord membranes by the peripheral BZD ligand Ro 5-4864 (4'-chlorodiazepam), whereas it is displaced with low affinity and a Hill slope of less than 1 (nH = 0.4) by CL 218,872 (3-methyl-6-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1,2,4-triazolol[4,3-b] pyridazine). These data suggest that a large number of BZD binding sites in spinal cord (approximately 80%) are of the central-type, BZD2 subclass, whereas the BZD binding sites in cerebellum are predominantly of the central-type, BZD1 subclass.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

An analysis of binding data is presented which yields the best binding site model consistent with the experimental data. The analysis is applicable to homotropic binding and yields the number of independent sites, number of interacting sites (dimers and tetramers of sites), intrinsic association constants, and degree of interaction. The information is derived from the roots of a binding polynomial constructed by the fitted Adair constants. 相似文献

Hsp70 chaperones are involved in the prevention of misfolding, and possibly the folding, of newly synthesized proteins. The members of this chaperone family are capable of interacting with polypeptide chains both co- and posttranslationally, but it is currently not clear how different structural domains of the chaperone affect binding specificity. We explored the interactions between the bacterial Hsp70, DnaK, and the sequence of a model all-alpha-helical globin (apoMb) by cellulose-bound peptide scanning. The binding specificity of the full-length chaperone was compared with that of its minimal substrate-binding domain, DnaK-beta. Six specific chaperone binding sites evenly distributed along the apoMb sequence were identified. Binding site locations are identical for the full-length chaperone and its substrate-binding domain, but relative affinities differ. The binding specificity of DnaK-beta is only slightly decreased relative to that of full-length DnaK. DnaK's binding motif is known to comprise hydrophobic regions flanked by positively charged residues. We found that the simple fractional mean buried area correlates well with Hsp70's binding site locations along the apoMb sequence. In order to further characterize the properties of the minimal binding host, the stability of DnaK-beta upon chemical denaturation by urea and protons was investigated. Urea unfolding titrations yielded an apparent folding DeltaG degrees of 3.1 +/- 0.9 kcal mol-1 and an m value of 1.7 +/- 0.4 kcal mol-1 M-1. 相似文献

An exploratory investigation is made of the binding behavior that is likely to be encountered with multivalent ligands under circumstances where a single intrinsic binding constant does not suffice to describe all acceptor-ligand interactions. Numerical simulations of theoretical binding behavior have established that current criteria for recognizing heterogeneity and cooperativity of acceptor sites on the basis of the deviation of the binding curve from rectangular hyperbolic form for univalent ligands also apply to the interpretation of the corresponding binding curves for multivalent ligands. However, for systems in which the source of the departure from equivalence and independence of binding sites resides in the ligand, these criteria are reversed. On the basis of these observations a case is then made for attributing results of an experimental binding study of the interaction between pyruvate kinase and muscle myofibrils to positive cooperativity of enzyme sites rather than to heterogeneity or negative cooperativity of the myofibrillar sites. 相似文献

Using a bacterial expression system, large amounts of the catalytic core of an atrial natriuretic peptide receptor guanylyl cyclase were produced and purified. After refolding the protein from a buffer containing urea, the enzyme had positively cooperative kinetics with a Hill coefficient, nH = 1.42 +/- 0.08. Size exclusion chromatography and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated that the enzyme is composed of homodimers with interacting catalytic sites. 相似文献

A system is considered in which a multivalent acceptor interacts with a bivalent ligand in solution to form an array of complexes via multiple binding and cross-linking reactions. With the use of reacted site probability functions expressions are derived in terms of a site binding constant which are of potential use in the interpretation of sedimentation equilibrium and binding results obtained with such systems. Their potential use is explored in relation to results obtained on the interacting ovalbumin-lysozyme system at pH 6.80, ionic strength 0.02. A comparison is made of this interpretation with that based on an interaction pattern involving only multiple binding of ligand in the absence of cross-linking effects. While both interpretations quantitatively describe certain results, it is shown, by invoking further experimental observations on apparent weight-average molecular weight and precipitation behavior, that the more favored interpretation is that involving the operation of a spectrum of forces leading to a large array of ovalbumin-lysozyme complexes, including those of the cross-linked type. It is stressed that the particular ovalbumin-lysozyme system is but one example of interaction between oppositely charged macromolecules and therefore that the derived equations may find wider application to such systems and those known to involve more specific cross-linking interactions. 相似文献

The study of complex macromolecular binding systems reveals that a high number of states and processes are involved in their mechanism of action, as has become more apparent with the sophistication of the experimental techniques used. The resulting information is often difficult to interpret because of the complexity of the scheme (large size and profuse interactions, including cooperative and self-assembling interactions) and the lack of transparency that this complexity introduces into the interpretation of the indexes traditionally used to describe the binding properties. In particular, cooperative behaviour can be attributed to very different causes, such as direct chemical modification of the binding sites, conformational changes in the whole structure of the macromolecule, aggregation processes between different subunits, etc. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for the analysis of the binding properties of complex macromolecular and self-assembling systems. To quantify the binding behaviour, we use the global association quotient defined as K c = [occupied sites]/([free sites] L), L being the free ligand concentration. K c can be easily related to other measures of cooperativity (such as the Hill number or the Scatchard plot) and to the free energies involved in the binding processes at each ligand concentration. In a previous work, it was shown that Kc could be decomposed as an average of equilibrium constants in two ways: intrinsic constants for Adair binding systems and elementary constants for the general case. In this study, we show that these two decompositions are particular cases of a more general expression, where the average is over partial association quotients, associated with subsystems from which the system is composed. We also show that if the system is split into different subsystems according to a binding hierarchy that starts from the lower, microscopic level and ends at the higher, aggregation level, the global association quotient can be decomposed following the hierarchical levels of macromolecular organisation. In this process, the partial association quotients of one level are expressed, in a recursive way, as a function of the partial quotients of the level that is immediately below, until the microscopic level is reached. As a result, the binding properties of very complex macromolecular systems can be analysed in detail, making the mechanistic explanation of their behaviour transparent. In addition, our approach provides a model-independent interpretation of the intrinsic equilibrium constants in terms of the elementary ones. 相似文献

In the present study, the effects of the thiol oxidising agent diamide upon the properties of rat brain beta1-adrenergic and human platelet serotonin2A receptor recognition sites have been investigated using [3H](-)CGP-12177 (in the presence of ICI-118551) and [3H]LSD as ligands. (-)Isoprenaline inhibited [3H](-)CGP-12177 binding with nH values of 0.87, 0.67, and 0.56 for added Mg2+ concentrations of 0, 2.5, and 25 mM, respectively. Pretreatment with diamide increased the nH to above unity for the inhibition of the binding by (-)isoprenaline, without a concomitant effect on the inhibition of the binding by (-)propranolol. In contrast, diamide reduced the affinity of human platelet serotonin2A-receptors for antagonists, but did not consistently induce nH values above unity for the inhibition of antagonist binding by serotonin. These results suggest that cooperative interactions reported for cardiac muscarinic receptors may also occur for beta1-adrenergic receptors in the rat brain. 相似文献

Summary One of the essential relationships between nucleic acids and amino acids in present biological systems, and perhaps in precursors to these systems is expressed in binding interactions. Such interactions depend on the size, composition and conformation of the interacting species. A simplified model of such complex systems was tested in an attempt to assess first the compositional effect, i.e., the binding behavior of monomeric nucleic acid and protein components. Nine representative amino acids were immobilized individually on a prepared chromatographic support by the formation of an amide linkage. Selective binding of ribonucleoside 5-phosphates was exhibited by these amino acids under standardized conditions and the binding was characterized by a site-binding model. It was found that binding behavior was dependent of the nature of the base and the nature of the amino acid. Basic information is thus provided which should be useful in the interpretation of more complex nucleic acid-protein systems and the study of their role in the evolution of the cell. 相似文献

Interaction of the pore-forming protein (porin) from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis with S- and R-forms of the endogenous lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was studied at various ionic strengths (20-600 mM NaCl), concentrations of divalent cations (5-100 mM CaCl2, MgCl2), and pH values from 3.0 to 9.0. The interaction of the R-LPS with porin has been shown in all experimental conditions to be in consensus with the model suggesting binding at independent sites of two types. S-LPS binds to interacting sites of relatively high affinity and to independent sites of low affinity at all pH values examined and at low NaCl concentration. The cooperative interaction of the S-LPS and porin is not observed at high ionic strength and in divalent cation-free medium. The number of binding sites of porin and association constants (Ka) for both LPS forms decrease significantly on increasing the solution ionic strength. The Ka values for the R- and S-LPS change oppositely on changing the pH: the Ka value for the R-LPS is maximal (Ka = 6.7 x 10(5) M-1), but that for S-LPS is minimal (Ka = 0.4 x 10(5) M(-1) at pH 5.0-5.5. The number of high-affinity and low-affinity binding sites for both LPS forms is maximal at pH 5.0-5.5. In this case, the numbers of high- and low-affinity sites for R-LPS are 3 and 10, respectively, and those for the S-LPS are 7 and 20, respectively. These data suggest an important role of electrostatic interactions on binding of LPS to porin. The contribution of conformational changes of the ligand and protein and hydrophobic interactions are discussed. 相似文献

The binding of guanine to calf spleen purine nucleoside phosphorylase at 20 degrees C, in 20 mM Hepes-NaOH buffer, pH 7.0, at several ionic strength between 5 and 150 mM was investigated using a stopped-flow spectrofluorimeter. The kinetic transients registered after mixing a protein solution with ligand solutions of different concentrations were simultaneously fitted by several association reaction models using nonlinear least-squares procedure based on numerical integration of the chemical kinetic equations appropriate for given model. It is concluded that binding of a guanine molecule by each of the binding sites is a two-step process and that symmetrical trimeric calf spleen purine nucleoside phosphorylase represents a system of (identical) interacting binding sites. The interaction is visible through relations between the rate constants and non-additivity of changes in "molar" fluorescence for different forms of PNP-guanine complexes. It is also probable that electrostatic effects in guanine binding are weak, which indicates that it is the neutral form of the ligand which is bound and dissociated by PNP molecule. 相似文献

The influence of Ca++, several drugs, and pH on the binding of Ca++ by skeletal muscle microsomes was studied in vitro. A mass-law graphic analysis revealed the presence of three distinct species of Ca++-binding sites in the microsomes, and the binding at only one of these sites was antagonized by local anesthetics and quinidine. These drugs also decreased the maximum Ca++-binding capacity of the microsomes. Caffeine and ouabain exerted no effect on the binding at any of the sites. Procaine was also bound by microsomes, and this binding was antagonized by Ca++, which also decreased the maximum procaine-binding capacity of microsomes. The sites that bind procaine and Ca++ are not identical because the maximum-binding capacities of the interacting sites are distinctly different. The influence of pH on the ability of drugs to antagonize Ca++ binding indicates that the displacing activity increases as the percentage of the drug in the nonionized form increases. All of the data obtained in the above studies are consistent with the interpretation that quinidine and local anesthetics of the procaine type noncompetitively antagonize the binding of Ca++ by microsomes. The pharmacological significance of a noncompetitive interaction may be related to the property of local anesthetics and quinidine to increase contractile tension in skeletal muscle rather than to their ability to stabilize the cell membrane. 相似文献
