pH-dependent lysis of liposomes by adenovirus 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Purified adenovirus induced a dose-dependent release of the water-soluble markers calcein and carboxyfluorescein from liposomes. Marker release was strongly dependent on pH, and at temperatures below 5 degrees C, the rate of release showed an optimum at a pH of about 6. This pH dependence parallels disruption of endocytic vesicles by adenovirus and the permeabilization that adenovirus induces on the cell surface. There did not seem to be a striking dependence on the lipid composition of the liposomes. Electron microscopy using a negative stain shows liposomes bound to adenovirus. In some cases, the liposomes were still intact, but many liposomes, which were attached to the vertices of the virus, appeared lysed. These data support the notion that adenovirus, which enters the host cell by receptor-mediated endocytosis, gains access to the cytoplasm by a subsequent pH-dependent disruption of the membrane of the endocytic vesicle. 相似文献

The similarity to materials corrosion is invoked to develop a model for phage-infected bacterial lysis based on the statistics of extremes. The importance of cell size, envelope thickness and lysozyme eclipse time on the final probability distribution of lysis is considered. Experiments are suggested to test the model. 相似文献

Self-disruptive Escherichia coli that produces foreign target protein was developed. E. coli was co-transformed with two vector plasmids, a target gene expression vector and a lysis gene expression vector. The lytic protein was produced after the expression of the target gene, resulting in simplification of the cell disruption process. In this study, the expression of cloned T4 phage gene e or t was used for the disruption of E. coli that produced beta-glucuronidase (GUS) as a model target protein. The expression of gene e did not lead to prompt cell disruption but weakened the cell wall. Resuspension with deionized water facilitated cell lysis, and GUS activity was observed in the resuspended liquid. Expression of gene e at mid logarithmic growth phase was the optimal induction period for GUS production and release. On the other hand, the expression of gene t induced immediate cell lysis, and intracellular GUS was released to the culture medium. Maximum GUS production was obtained when gene t was induced at late logarithmic growth phase. 相似文献

Summary Selectivity of the lysis of the tumor cells by autologous blood lymphocytes and its various subsets was investigated by means of the cold target competition assay. The effectors were autologous lymphocytes passed through a nylon-wool column (unfractionated: U) and their low-and high-density subsets, either without or after activation. The lymphocytes were activated (a) in autologous mixed lymphocyte tumor cell culture in autologous (MLTC), (b) in mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC), without and with interleukin-2, for 6 days, or (c) by phytohaemagglutinin for 3 days. Autologous-lymphocyte-mediated cytotoxicity (auto-tumor lysis: ALC) by the unfractionated, unmanipulated blood lymphocyte (U) population, its high-density fraction and those induced for auto-tumor lysis in the MLTC is regularly weak and affects only the autologous tumor cells. Their ALC function was inhibited only by the target identical unlabelled cells while the effect of separated low-density lymphocytes was inhibited also by allogeneic tumor cells.The cold-target competition assay indicated that several subsets with different specificities exist simultaneously in the effector populations activated in MLC, because the various targets did not cross-compete or did so only partially. Whenever interleukin-2 was added, at the start of the mixed cultures (MLTC or MLC), the lytic effects were no longer selective. Phytohaemagglutinin-activated effectors lysed several targets. These targets were inhibitory in a criss-cross fashion. Generally, populations showing auto-tumor selectivity had weak lytic effects, while the strongly activated effectors, with strong cytotoxic function, were not selective. 相似文献

Recycling of plant biomass by a community of bacteria and fungi is fundamental to carbon flow in terrestrial ecosystems. Here we report how the plant fermenting, soil bacterium Clostridium phytofermentans enhances growth on cellulose by simultaneously lysing and consuming model fungi from soil. We investigate the mechanism of fungal lysis to show that among the dozens of different glycoside hydrolases C. phytofermentans secretes on cellulose, the most highly expressed enzymes degrade fungi rather than plant substrates. These enzymes, the GH18 Cphy1799 and Cphy1800, synergize to hydrolyse chitin, a main component of the fungal cell wall. Purified enzymes inhibit fungal growth and mutants lacking either GH18 grow normally on cellulose and other plant substrates, but have a reduced ability to hydrolyse chitinous substrates and fungal hyphae. Thus, C. phytofermentans boosts growth on cellulose by lysing fungi with its most highly expressed hydrolases, highlighting the importance of fungal interactions to the ecology of cellulolytic bacteria. 相似文献

Lysophosphatidylcholine micelles liberate several cell surface polypeptides from erythrocyte membranes, inducing a sodium-selective permeability defect which leads to colloid osmotic lysis. Evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that at the lowest lytic lysophospholipid concentrations, selective disruption of membrane protein function, rather than gross structural reorganization of the membrane, is the primary lytic mechanism. 相似文献

In this study, we identify the extent of deformation that causes cell lysis using a simple technique where a drop of cell suspension is compressed by two flat plates. The viability of human prostatic adenocarcinoma PC-3 cells in solutions of various concentrations of NaCl is determined as a function of the gap size between the plates. The viability declines with decreasing gap size in the following order: 700 mM >150 mM >75 mM NaCl. This is considered to be due to the difference in cell size, which is caused by the osmotic volume change before deformation; cell diameter becomes smaller in a solution of higher NaCl concentration, which appears to increase the survival ratio in a given gap size. The deformation-induced decrease in cell viability is correlated with the cell surface strain, which is dependent on the increase in surface area, irrespective of NaCl concentration. In addition, the treatment of cells with cytochalasin D results in the disappearance of cortical actin filaments and a marked drop in the viability, indicating that cell lysis is closely related to the deformation of the cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Hemolysis of guinea pig erythrocytes by snake venom cardiotoxins was investigated with a semi-automatic method based on light-scattering changes of erythrocyte suspensions at 700 nm which are directly related to hemoglobin release. Small amounts of phospholipase-free cardiotoxin (<100 μg) could be conveniently and rapidly assayed with the high reproducibility in a recording spectrophotometer, and reliable kinetic data were accumulated.Cardiotoxins from two different genera (Hemachatus haemachates and Naja mossambica mossambica) displayed virtually identical hemolytic properties. Hemolysis increased linearly with time, in contrast with a sigmoidal pattern when phospholipase was present as an impurity. Low concentrations of Ca2+ (<1 mM) stimulated cardiotoxin action. A limiting plateau rate of hemolysis reached during concentration dependence experiments in which the level of either cardiotoxin or of erythrocytes was varied, suggested that the interaction of cardiotoxin with erythrocyte membranes is a saturation phenomenon only at a high ratio of cardiotoxin: erythrocytes. No hemolysis was observed with an homologous neurotoxin of S-methylated cardiotoxin, providing evidence for specificity. The linear Arrhenius plots obtained for the temperature dependence of cardiotoxin-induced hemolysis strengthened the conclusion that its action involves more than a detergent-like effect on membrane phospholipids. 相似文献

Inhibition of the lysis of fungi by melanins 总被引:8,自引:4,他引:8
Evidence is presented that the resistance of Aspergillus nidulans hyphae to lysis by a β-(1→3) glucanase-chitinase mixture results from the presence of melanin in the fungal walls. The resistance of the walls to digestion was directly correlated with the melanin content of the mycelium. A melanin-less mutant of A. nidulans was highly susceptible to hydrolysis by the enzyme mixture. Preincubation of a synthetic melanin with the glucanase, chitinase, and a protease, before addition of the substrate, resulted in a marked inhibition of the rate of substrate hydrolysis. Melanin also appeared to combine with and protect at least certain substrates from decomposition, as indicated by the direct relationship between the extent of inhibition of casein hydrolysis by a bacterial protease and the length of time the protein was incubated with the melanin prior to addition of the enzyme. Melanin was found to be highly resistant to microbial degradation, a likely requirement for the polyaromatic to be effective in protecting fungal structures from lysis or decomposition by natural communities of microorganisms. 相似文献
