Optimum temperature and temperature coefficient of protein synthesis in young wheat plants exhibit phenotypical temperature adaptation. In plants grown for 2 days at either chilling (4 C), medium (20 C), or high (36 C) temperature the respective values are: 27 C and 14.2 kilocalories per mole, 31 C and 18.2 kilocalories per mole, 35 C and 23.6 kilocalories per mole, based on in vivo [14C]leucine incorporation into total protein. The validity of the [14C]leucine incubation method has been confirmed by double-labeling experiments. Readaptation time curves are complex: the optimum temperature parameter readjusts within approximately 4 hours to an altered temperature regime, whereas the temperature coefficient needs between 4 and 96 hours for complete readaptation—depending on the temperature conditions prior to the temperature shift. Heat-preadapted plants need a recovery period at medium temperature to regain their cold adaptability with respect to optimum temperature. Cycloheximide (30 micrograms per milliliter) reduces [14C]leucine incorporation into protein by 85%, thus indicating that predominantly the cytoplasmic 80S system of protein synthesis is involved in temperature adaptation.  相似文献

The temperature-sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant tsH1, has been shown previously to contain a temperature-sensitive leucyl-tRNA synthetase. At the non-permissive temperature of 40 degrees C cytosolic protein synthesis is rapidly inhibited. The protein synthesis which continues at 40 degrees C appears to be mitochondrial, since: (a) whole-cell protein synthesis at the permissive temperature of 34 degrees C is not inhibied by tevenel, the sulfamoyl analogue of chloramphenicol and a specific inhibitor of mitochondrial protein synthesis; however, whole-cell protein synthesis at 40 degrees C is inhibited by tevenel, (b) Protein synthesis by isolated mitochondria from tsH1 cells is not significantly inhibited at 40 degrees C. (c) At 40 degrees C [14C]leucine is incorporated predominantly into the mitochondrial fraction of tsH1 cells. (d) The incorporation of [14C]leucine at 40 degrees C into mitochondrial proteins of tsH1 cells is inh-bited by tevenel but not by cycloheximide. These results suggest that the mitochondria of tsH1 cells contain a leucyl-tRNA synthetase which is different from the cytosolic enzyme. The inhibition of cytosolic, but not of mitochondrial protein synthesis in tsH1 cells at 40 degrees C allows the selective labelling of mitochondrial translation products in the absence of inhibitors. The mitochondrial translation products labelled in tsH1 cells at 40 degrees C and at 34 degrees C in the presence of cycloheximide have been compared by sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both conditions of labelling give similar profiles. The mitochondrial translation products are resolved into two components, one with an apparent molecular weight range from 40,000 to 20,000 and a second with an apparent molecular weight range from 20,000 to 10,000.  相似文献

The translational efficiency of wheat ribosomes was studied as a function of an in vivo temperature pretreatment of wheat seedlings (Triticum aestivum L.). Ribosomes were isolated from heat-pretreated (36°C) and reference (4°C, 20°C) wheat seedlings. The efficiency of the ribosomes in translating polyuridylic acid was assayed. Ribosomes from heat-pretreated seedlings exhibit a threefold enhanced incorporation rate of phenylalanine as compared to ribosomes from wheat seedlings adapted to 20 or 4°C. This difference develops within 24 hours after onset of the heat treatment of seedlings following a 3 hour lag phase. The temperature induced changes can be traced back to the cytoplasmic ribosomes, since cycloheximide inhibits translation almost completely. Thermal inactivation of ribosomes occurs at 45°C, irrespective of the temperature pretreatment of the wheat seedlings. Specific differences in the yield of ribosomes, in the polyribosomal profiles, and in the apparent Arrhenius' activation energy of protein synthesis were observed depending on the age and the temperature pretreatments. The results presented here are considered an important molecular correlation to phenotypical temperature adaptation of in vivo protein synthesis in wheat (M Weidner, C Mathée, FK Schmitz 1982 Plant Physiol 69: 1281-1288).  相似文献

Synthesis of total cellular proteins of Escherichia coli was studied upon transfer of a log-phase culture from 30 (or 37) to 42 degrees C. Cells were pulse-labeled with [3H]leucine, and the labeled proteins were analyzed by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The rates of synthesis of at least five protein chains were found to increase markedly (5- to 10-fold) within 5 min after temperature shift-up and gradually decrease to the new steady-state levels, in contrast to the majority of proteins which gradually increase to the steady-state levels (about 1.5-fold the rate at 30 degrees C). Temperature shift-down did not cause any appreciable changes in the pattern of protein synthesis as detected by the present method. Among the proteins greatly affected by the temperature shift-up were those with apparent molecular weights fo 87,000 (87K), 76K, 73K, 64K, and 61K. Two of them (64K and 61K) were found to be precipitated with specific antiserum against proteins that had previously been shown to have an adenosine triphosphatase activity. The bearings of these findings on bacterial adaptation to variation in growth temperature are discussed.  相似文献

The rate of incorporation of labeled precursors for RNA ([14C]uracil) and protein ([14C]DL-leucine) into the cells of the synchronous culture of Candida utilis VKMY-1668 (the optimum temperature of growth, 31--32 degrees C) was studied as a function of different temperatures (28, 31, 32, 34, 36, 38, and 41 decrees C). The yeast was grown on a simple mineral medium containing glycerol. RNA synthesis was found to be more susceptible to elevated temperature than protein synthesis: the maximum rate of incorporation was registered at 32--34 degrees C for [14C]DL-leucine and only at 32 degrees C for [14C]uracil (the rate of its incorporation at 34 degrees C decreased by 50% as compared to that at 32 degrees C). The rate of incorporation of [14C]uracil at 34 degrees C reached 100% (the rate at 32 degrees C) when yeast autolysate was added to the medium, and 75 and 70%, respectively, upon the addition of DL-methionine or Mg2+ (as compared to 50% without them).  相似文献

Isolated and perfused rat hearts can be maintained for up to 2.5 h with minimal synthesis of a stress protein with a relative mass (Mr) of 71 kilodaltons (SP71). Isolated hearts, subjected to 17 h of cold (4 degrees C) ischemia, upon perfusion (37 degrees C) synthesize a large amount of SP71. In the present study, the effect of in vivo hyperthermia on protein synthesis in isolated and perfused hearts was examined. Hearts were excised from rats subjected to a 15-min episode of hyperthermia (42 degrees C), either immediately (no recovery) or after 24 h of recovery. The excised hearts were perfused either immediately or after 17 h of cold ischemia. Hyperthermia (no recovery) increased [3H]leucine incorporation into SP71, while hyperthermia with a 24-h recovery did not increase incorporation into SP71 during perfusion (no ischemia). Hyperthermia (no recovery) increased the incorporation of [3H]leucine into SP71 seen after cold ischemia. Hyperthermia with a 24-h recovery decreased the incorporation of [3H]leucine into SP71 seen after cold ischemia. This reduction in synthesis of SP71 after 24-h recovery from hyperthermia could be caused by the accumulation of SP71 suppressing its own synthesis or a measure of protection (tolerance) induced by the hyperthermia.  相似文献

1. At 28 degrees C, synthesis of protein cyst coat in ciliates of Colpoda steinii is induced by washing with water and, as judged by glutamic acid assays and incorporation studies with l-[U-(14)C]leucine, starts about 30min after the cells have stopped swimming and is largely complete 90min later. During this time up to 70% of the protein synthesized by the cell is coat protein. 2. When cells were placed in l-[U-(14)C]leucine at low concentrations (0.25-0.76mm) during the period of coat synthesis there was no lag in uptake. Only a small proportion of the leucine incorporated into the coat was from the external substrate, implying that the rate of radioactive isotope incorporation measured the rate of transport of amino acid into the cell. Transport of l-[U-(14)C]leucine into the cell was markedly stimulated by l-glutamic acid and l-lysine. 3. When cells were placed in l-[U-(14)C]leucine at high concentrations (38mm) the rate of incorporation was considered to measure the rate of protein synthesis, but because the latter may have been affected by substrate it is concluded that such measurements are of doubtful value.  相似文献

Leucine incorporation was examined as a method for estimating rates of protein synthesis by bacterial assemblages in natural aquatic systems. The proportion of the total bacterial population that took up leucine in three marine environments was high (greater than 50%). Most of the leucine (greater than 90%) taken up was incorporated into protein, and little (less than 20%) was degraded to other amino acids, except in two oligotrophic marine environments. In samples from these two environments, ca. 50% of the leucine incorporated had been degraded to other amino acids, which were subsequently incorporated into protein. The degree of leucine degradation appears to depend on the organic carbon supply, as the proportion of 3H-radioactivity incorporated into protein that was recovered as [3H]leucine after acid hydrolysis increased with the addition of pyruvate to oligotrophic water samples. The addition of extracellular leucine inhibited total incorporation of [14C]pyruvate (a precursor for leucine biosynthesis) into protein. Furthermore, the proportion of [14C]pyruvate incorporation into protein that was recovered as [14C]leucine decreased with the addition of extracellular leucine. These results show that the addition of extracellular leucine inhibits leucine biosynthesis by marine bacterial assemblages. The molar fraction of leucine in a wide variety of proteins is constant, indicating that changes in leucine incorporation rates reflect changes in rates of protein synthesis rather than changes in the leucine content of proteins. The results demonstrate that the incorporation rate of [3H]leucine into a hot trichloroacetic acid-insoluble cell fraction can serve as an index of protein synthesis by bacterial assemblages in aquatic systems.  相似文献

The optimum temperature of protein synthesis in wheat seedlings (Triticum aestivum L.), measured as 14C-leucine incorporation, depends on the growing temperature. Plants grown at reduced temperature (4 C) reach their optimum at 27.5 C, whereas plants kept at 36 C have the highest rate of protein synthesis at 35 C. The transition is gradual. The activation energy of protein synthesis for seedlings grown at medium or reduced temperature is lower (about 11 kcal/mole), than for plants grown at higher temperatures (15 keal/mole). The decline of the rate of protein synthesis beyond the temperature optimum is also affected by the growth temperature; only plants kept at 30 or 36 C show a sharp decrease with increasing slope; plants kept at 4, 10, and 20 C exhibit a linear and comparatively moderate decline.  相似文献

Synthesis of cytoplasmic DNA-binding proteins was investigated after a shift from the nonpermissive to the permissive temperature in NRK cells transformed by a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus [ts339(RSV)]. Cells were labeled for several generations in [3H]leucine and were pulse-labeled with [35S]methionine for 1 h at the nonpermissive temperature (39 degrees C) and at the permissive temperature (33 degrees C, 5 h after shift from 39 degrees C). Proteins binding to sequential columns of double-stranded and single-stranded DNA-cellulose were examined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and the 35S/3H ratios were obtained for each column fraction and for individual polypeptides. The protein fractions binding to single-stranded, but not double-stranded, DNA and eluting at high salt concentrations (greater than 0.60 M NaCl) showed elevated 35S/3H ratios. This indicated increased synthesis of these proteins within 5 h after the onset of transformation. The majority of the polypeptides in these fractions showed increased synthesis as a consequence of transformation. One prominent polypeptide among them constituted 0.1% of the cytosol protein and had a molecular weight of 93,000. We conclude that the synthesis of proteins binding tightly to single-stranded DNA is increased early after the onset of transformation.  相似文献

Insulin biosynthesis in the brown bullhead, Ictalurus nebulosus (Le Sueur), was studied by measuring the incorporation in vitro of [(3)H]leucine into proteins of the principal islet. The tissue was incubated for 6-15h in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer with [(3)H]leucine, supplemented with amino acids and glucose. Proteins, precipitated with trichloroacetic acid and extracted with acid ethanol, were separated by gel-filtration on Biogel P-30 in 3m-acetic acid. Three major components were found after incubation of the islets at 22 degrees C. On the basis of the results of sulphitolysis, biological activity and the demonstrated precursor-product relationship, components I and II were identified as proinsulin and insulin respectively. The third component was not identified. At 12 degrees C, [(3)H]leucine was incorporated only into proinsulin. No radioactivity was found in insulin or the unidentified component III at 12 degrees C as was found after incubation at 22 degrees C. When the temperature was lowered from 22 degrees to 12 degrees C after 3h of a 15h incubation, decreased conversion of proinsulin into insulin resulted at the lower temperature compared with the control tissue maintained at 22 degrees C. When the temperature was raised from 12 degrees to 22 degrees C at 3h of a 15h incubation, conversion of proinsulin into insulin occurred. No conversion occurred in the control tissue with the temperature maintained at 12 degrees C. No qualitative difference in the incorporation of [(3)H]leucine into proinsulin and its conversion into insulin at 12 degrees and 22 degrees C could be demonstrated between islet tissue from fish acclimated to less than 12 degrees C or to 22 degrees C. The results suggest that the enzyme(s) responsible for converting proinsulin into insulin in the bullhead may be temperature sensitive with low activity at 12 degrees C.  相似文献

When bakers' yeast cells were grown anaerobically in a medium supplemented with Tween 80 and ergosterol, exposure during aeration to the fatty acid synthesis inhibitor, cerulenin, had little effect upon respiratory adaptation, the induction of enzymes of electron transport, or the in vivo incorporation of [(14)C]leucine into mitochondrial membranes. These lipid-supplemented cells were apparently able to undergo normal respiratory adaptation utilizing endogenous lipids alone. The level of cerulenin used (2 mug/ml) inhibited the in vivo incorporation of [(14)C]acetate into mitochondrial membrane lipids by 96%. If, however, the cells were deprived of exogenous lipid during anaerobic growth, subsequent exposure to cerulenin severely reduced their capacity to undergo respiratory adaptation, to form enzymes of electron transport, and to incorporate amino acid into both total cell and mitochondrial membrane proteins. This cerulenin-mediated inhibition of enzyme formation and of protein synthesis was nearly completely reversed by the addition of exogenous lipid during the aeration of the cells. In lipid-limited cells, chloramphenicol also had dramatic inhibitory effects, both alone (75%) and together with cerulenin (85%), upon total cell and mitochondrial membrane [(14)C]leucine incorporation. This marked chloramphenicol-mediated inhibition was also largely reversed by exogenous lipid. It is concluded that, in lipid-limited cells, either cerulenin or chloramphenicol may prevent the emergence of a pattern of lipids required for normal levels of protein synthetic activity. The effect of cerulenin upon the formation of mitochondrial inner membrane enzymes thus appears to reflect a nonspecific effect of this antilipogenic antibiotic upon total cell protein synthesis.  相似文献

Effect of in vitro heat stress on protein and prostaglandin synthesis and secretion by bovine conceptuses and endometrium was examined. Conceptuses (n = 11) and endometrium (n = 10) obtained on Day 17 of pregnancy were cultured at thermoneutral (39 degrees C, 24 h) or heat stress (39 degrees C, 6 h; 43 degrees C, 18 h) temperatures in medium supplemented with L-[4,5-3H]leucine (100 microCi) and arachidonic acid (10 micrograms/ml). Radiolabeled protein secreted into culture medium increased with time in both groups. Heat stress reduced (p less than 0.001) incorporation of [3H]leucine into intracellular and secreted proteins by conceptuses but did not alter incorporation of [3H]leucine by endometrium. In particular, heat stress reduced by 72% the secretion of bovine trophoblast protein-1, the conceptus polypeptide believed to cause extension of luteal lifespan. Two-dimensional, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that heat stress altered the array of proteins in endometrial and conceptus tissues, as evidenced by the induction of "heat-shock proteins." Endometrial secretion of prostaglandin F (p less than 0.001) and conceptus secretion of prostaglandin E2 (p less than 0.05) increased in response to heat stress. Sensitivity of bovine conceptuses and endometrium to heat stress in vitro suggests that infertility associated with maternal heat stress may be caused, partially by alterations in signals required for maintenance of the corpus luteum during early pregnancy.  相似文献

Bromus inermis Leyss cell cultures treated with 75 micromolar abscisic acid (ABA) at both 23 and 3°C developed more freezing resistance than cells cultured at 3°C. Protein synthesis in cells induced to become freezing tolerant by ABA and low temperature was monitored by [14C]leucine incorporation. Protein synthesis continued at 3°C, but net cell growth was stopped. Most of the major proteins detected at 23°C were synthesized at 3°C. However, some proteins were synthesized only at low temperatures, whereas others were inhibited. ABA showed similar effects on protein synthesis at both 23 and 3°C. Comparative electrophoretic analysis of [14C]leucine labeled protein detected the synthesis of 19, 21 and 47 kilodalton proteins in less than 8 hours after exposure to exogenous ABA. Proteins in the 20 kilodalton range were also synthesized at 3°C. In addition, a 31 kilodalton protein band showed increased expression in freezing resistant ABA treated cultures after 36 hours growth at both 3 and 23°C. Quantitative analysis of [14C]leucine labeled polypeptides in two-dimensional gels confirmed the increased expression of the 31 kilodalton protein. Two-dimensional analysis also resolved a 72 kilodalton protein enriched in ABA treated cultures and identified three proteins (24.5, 47, and 48 kilodaltons) induced by low temperature growth.  相似文献

Effect of heat stress on the synthesis of soluble heat shock proteins (HSPs) and the regrowth in seminal roots of three cultivated and three wild wheat genotypes was examined. In regrowth experiments, 2-d-old etiolated seedlings were exposed to 23 (control), 32, 35, 37 and 38 degrees C for 24 h, and 35 and 37 degrees C (24 h) followed by 50 degrees C (1 h). The lengths of the seminal roots generally decreased significantly at the end of 48 and 72 h recovery growth periods at 35, 37 and 38 degrees C temperature treatments compared with control. Genotypic variability was significant level at all temperature treatments for the seminal root length. Also, genotypic differences for the number of seminal roots were determined among the wheat cultivars and between the wild wheat species and the wheat cultivars at all temperature treatments; but genotypic differences among wild wheat species were only detected at 37-->50 degrees C treatment. Acquired thermotolerance for the seminal root length is over 50% at 37-->50 degrees C treatment. The genotypic variability of soluble heat shock proteins in seminal root tissues were analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). Total number of low molecular weight (LMW) HSPs was more than intermediate-(IMW) and high- (HMW) HSPs at high temperature treatments. The most of LMW HSPs which were generally of acidic character ranged between 14.2-30.7 kDa. The genotypes had both common (43 HSP spots between at least two genotypes and 23 HSP spots between 37 and 37-->50 degrees C) and genotype-specific (72 HSP spots) LMW HSPs.  相似文献

High temperatures during grain filling have been reported to be one of the factors that can affect the dough properties and quality characteristics of wheat. Responses to high temperature have been related to changes in protein composition at both quantitative and qualitative levels. The present study was conducted to determine the influence of high temperature during grain filling on the protein composition of bread wheat evaluated by proteomic tools. Plants were grown in the field and transferred to cabinets soon after flowering. They were subjected to two thermal regimes 18 degrees C/10 degrees C (day/night) and 34 degrees C/10 degrees C. Total proteins were extracted from control grains and treated plants at three different post-anthesis stages. The proteins were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and analysed by Melanie 3 software. Of the total number of mature wheat grain proteins, 37 were identified as significantly changed by heat treatment. Analysis by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry coupled with database searching allowed the characterization of 25 heat-induced proteins and only one heat-decreased protein spot. To learn more about the function of the identified proteins, we examined their expression during treatment.  相似文献
