Glucose in concentrations of 20 mg% (or greater) significantly inhibited 14C-labelled ascorbic acid (1.25 mg%) uptake in endothelial cells in the presence of insulin (1600 ωU/ml). The absence of insulin also significantly reduced ascorbic acid uptake. Furthermore, this reduction could be exacerbated by glucose (40, 160 mg%) but not equimolar concentrations of fructose. Increased ascorbic acid concentrations (two-fold) in the absence of insulin (1) significantly enhanced uptake, and (2) reversed the inhibition by glucose. These findings support earlier reports that ascorbic acid uptake into the cell may be compromised by decreased insulin and/or increased extracellular glucose levels. Since previous animal studies have correlated experimental ascorbic acid deficiencies with atherogenic processes (presumably by altering glycosaminoglycan metabolism), the postulation that the “diabetic condition” (low insulin, hyperglycemia) accelerates the cellular changes leading to atherosclerosis by impairing ascorbic acid uptake into the vascular endothelium, may now be supported. 相似文献

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a 21-amino acid peptide that binds to G-protein-coupled receptors to evoke biological responses. This report studies the effect of ET-1 on regulating glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. ET-1, but not angiotensin II, stimulated glucose uptake in a dose-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 0.29 nM and a 2.47-fold stimulation at 100 nM. ET-1 stimulated glucose uptake in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells but had no effect in undifferentiated cells, although ET-1 stimulated phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis to a similar degree in both. The 3T3-L1 cells expressed approximately 560,000 sites/cell of ETA receptor, which was not altered during differentiation. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence staining show that ET-1 stimulated the translocation of insulin-responsive aminopeptidase and GLUT4 to the plasma membrane. The effect of ET-1 on glucose uptake was blocked by A-216546, an antagonist selective for the ETA receptor. ET-1 treatment did not induce phosphorylation of insulin receptor beta-subunit, insulin receptor substrate-1, or Akt but stimulated the tyrosyl phosphorylation of a 75-kDa protein. Genistein (100 microM), an inhibitor of tyrosine kinases, inhibited ET-1-stimulated glucose uptake. Our results show that ET-1 stimulates GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes via activation of ETA receptor. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates the movement of the facilitative glucose transporter glucose transporter-4 (Glut4) from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane in adipocytes and muscle cells, resulting in an increased rate of glucose uptake. Insulin-stimulated Glut4 translocation and glucose transport are abolished by wortmannin, a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K). Here, we demonstrate that neomycin, a drug that masks the cellular substrate of PI3K, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP), prevents wortmannin inhibition of insulin-stimulated (2)Glut4 translocation and glucose transport without activating protein kinase B, a downstream effector of PI3K. These results suggest that PIP(2) may have an important regulatory function in insulin-stimulated Glut4 translocation and glucose transport. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose transport in adipocytes and muscle cells by triggering redistribution of the GLUT4 glucose transporter from an intracellular perinuclear location to the cell surface. Recent reports have shown that the microtubule-depolymerizing agent nocodazole inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose transport, implicating an important role for microtubules in this process. In the present study we show that 2 microm nocodazole completely depolymerized microtubules in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, as determined morphologically and biochemically, resulting in dispersal of the perinuclear GLUT4 compartment and the Golgi apparatus. However, 2 microm nocodazole did not significantly effect either the kinetics or magnitude of insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Consistent with previous studies, higher concentrations of nocodazole (10-33 microm) significantly inhibited basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in adipocytes. This effect was not likely the result of microtubule depolymerization because in the presence of taxol, which blocked nocodazole-induced depolymerization of microtubules as well as the dispersal of the perinuclear GLUT4 compartment, the inhibitory effect of 10-33 microm nocodazole on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake prevailed. Despite the decrease in insulin-stimulated glucose transport with 33 microm nocodazole we did not observe inhibition of insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface under these conditions. Consistent with a direct effect of nocodazole on glucose transporter function we observed a rapid inhibitory effect of nocodazole on glucose transport activity when added to either 3T3-L1 adipocytes or to Chinese hamster ovary cells at 4 degrees C. These studies reveal a new and unexpected effect of nocodazole in mammalian cells which appears to occur independently of its microtubule-depolymerizing effects. 相似文献

Glucose and insulin co-regulate the glucose transport system in primary cultured adipocytes. A new mechanism of insulin resistance 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

We have previously shown in primary cultured rat adipocytes that insulin acts at receptor and multiple postreceptor sites to decrease insulin's subsequent ability to stimulate glucose transport. To examine whether D-glucose can regulate glucose transport activity and whether it has a role in insulin-induced insulin resistance, we cultured cells for 24 h in the absence and presence of various glucose and insulin concentrations. After washing cells and allowing the glucose transport system to deactivate, we measured basal and maximally insulin-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake rates (37 degrees C) and cell surface insulin binding (16 degrees C). Alone, incubation with D-glucose had no effect on basal or maximal glucose transport activity, and incubation with insulin, in the absence of glucose, decreased maximal (but not basal) glucose transport rates only 18% at the highest preincubation concentration (50 ng/ml). However, in combination, D-glucose (1-20 mM) markedly enhanced the long-term ability of insulin (1-50 ng/ml) to decrease glucose transport rates in a dose-responsive manner. For example, at 50 ng/ml preincubation insulin concentration, the maximal glucose transport rate fell from 18 to 63%, and the basal uptake rate fell by 89%, as the preincubation D-glucose level was increased from 0 to 20 mM. Moreover, D-glucose more effectively promoted decreases in basal glucose uptake (Ki = 2.2 +/- 0.4 mM) compared with maximal transport rates (Ki = 4.1 +/- 0.4 mM) at all preincubation insulin concentrations (1-50 ng/ml). Similar results were obtained when initial rates of 3-O-methylglucose uptake were used to measure glucose transport. D-glucose, in contrast, did not influence insulin-induced receptor loss. In other studies, D-mannose and D-glucosamine could substitute for D-glucose to promote the insulin-induced changes in glucose transport, but other substrates such as L-glucose, L-arabinase, D-fructose, pyruvate, and maltose were without effect. Also, non-metabolized substrates which competitively inhibit D-glucose uptake (3-O-methylglucose, cytochalasin B) blocked the D-glucose plus insulin effect.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

We have previously shown that glucose utilization and glucose transport were impaired in the brain of rats made deficient in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). The present study examines whether n-3 PUFA affect the expression of glucose transporter GLUT1 and glucose transport activity in the endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier. GLUT1 expression in the cerebral cortex microvessels of rats fed different amounts of n-3 PUFA (low vs. adequate vs. high) was studied. In parallel, the glucose uptake was measured in primary cultures of rat brain endothelial cells (RBEC) exposed to supplemental long chain n-3 PUFA, docosahexaenoic (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic (EPA) acids, or to arachidonic acid (AA). Western immunoblotting analysis showed that endothelial GLUT1 significantly decreased (-23%) in the n-3 PUFA-deficient microvessels compared to control ones, whereas it increased (+35%) in the microvessels of rats fed the high n-3 PUFA diet. In addition, binding of cytochalasin B indicated that the maximum binding to GLUT1 (Bmax) was reduced in deficient rats. Incubation of RBEC with 15 microM DHA induced the membrane DHA to increase at a level approaching that of cerebral microvessels isolated from rats fed the high n-3 diet. Supplementation of RBEC with DHA or EPA increased the [(3)H]-3-O-methylglucose uptake (reflecting the basal glucose transport) by 35% and 50%, respectively, while AA had no effect. In conclusion, we suggest that n-3 PUFA can modulate the brain glucose transport in endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier, possibly via changes in GLUT1 protein expression and activity. 相似文献

The combined effect of arachidonic acid and cAMP on glucose transport was examined in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In cells pre-treated with arachidonic acid and increasing concentrations of 8-bromo cAMP for 8 h, although either agent alone enhanced glucose uptake, the simultaneous presence of both agents dramatically increased 2-deoxyglucose uptake in a synergistic fashion. Insulin-stimulated glucose transport, on the other hand, was only slightly affected. The synergistic effect of these two agents was abolished in the presence of cycloheximide. Immunoblot analysis revealed that the contents of ubiquitous glucose transporter (GLUT1) in total cellular and plasma membranes were similarly augmented in cells pre-treated with both arachidonic acid and 8-bromo cAMP, to a greater extent than the additive effect of each agent alone. The content of GLUT4, on the other hand, was not altered under the same experimental conditions. In cells pre-treated with 4beta-phorbol 12beta-myristate 13alpha-acetate (PMA) for 24 h to down-regulate protein kinase C (PKC), the subsequent synergistic effect of arachidonic acid and 8-bromo cAMP was greatly inhibited. In addition, pre-treatment with both PMA and 8-bromo cAMP enhanced glucose transport in a similarly synergistic fashion. Thus the present study seems to indicate that arachidonic acid may act with cAMP in a synergistic way to increase glucose transport by a PKC-dependent mechanism. The increased activity may be accounted for by increased GLUT1 synthesis. 相似文献

Multiple studies have suggested that the protein kinase Akt/PKB (protein kinase B) is required for insulin-stimulated glucose transport in skeletal muscle and adipose cells. In an attempt to understand links between Akt activation and glucose transport regulation, we applied mass spectrometry-based proteomics and bioinformatics approaches to identify potential Akt substrates containing the phospho-Akt substrate motif RXRXXpS/T. The present study describes the identification of the Rab GAP (GTPase-activating protein)-domain containing protein TBC1D1 [TBC (Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16) domain family, member 1], which is closely related to TBC1D4 [TBC domain family, member 4, also denoted AS160 (Akt substrate of 160 kDa)], as an Akt substrate that is phosphorylated at Thr(590). RNAi (RNA interference)-mediated silencing of TBC1D1 elevated basal deoxyglucose uptake by approx. 61% in 3T3-L1 mouse embryo adipocytes, while the suppression of TBC1D4 and RapGAP220 under the same conditions had little effect on basal and insulin-stimulated deoxyglucose uptake. Silencing of TBC1D1 strongly increased expression of the GLUT1 glucose transporter but not GLUT4 in cultured adipocytes, whereas the decrease in TBC1D4 had no effect. Remarkably, loss of TBC1D1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes activated the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin)-p70 S6 protein kinase pathway, and the increase in GLUT1 expression in the cells treated with TBC1D1 siRNA (small interfering RNA) was blocked by the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin. Furthermore, overexpression of the mutant TBC1D1-T590A, lacking the putative Akt/PKB phosphorylation site, inhibited insulin stimulation of p70 S6 kinase phosphorylation at Thr(389), a phosphorylation induced by mTOR. Taken together, our data suggest that TBC1D1 may be involved in controlling GLUT1 glucose transporter expression through the mTOR-p70 S6 kinase pathway. 相似文献

We have examined the requirement for Ca2+ in the signaling and trafficking pathways involved in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Chelation of intracellular Ca2+, using 1,2-bis (o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetra (acetoxy- methyl) ester (BAPTA-AM), resulted in >95% inhibition of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. The calmodulin antagonist, W13, inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by 60%. Both BAPTA-AM and W13 inhibited Akt phosphorylation by 70-75%. However, analysis of insulin-dose response curves indicated that this inhibition was not sufficient to explain the effects of BAPTA-AM and W13 on glucose uptake. BAPTA-AM inhibited insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 by 50%, as determined by plasma membrane lawn assay and subcellular fractionation. In contrast, the insulin-stimulated appearance of HA-tagged GLUT4 at the cell surface, as measured by surface binding, was blocked by BAPTA-AM. While the ionophores or ionomycin prevented the inhibition of Akt phosphorylation and GLUT4 translocation by BAPTA-AM, they did not overcome the inhibition of glucose transport. Moreover, glucose uptake of cells pretreated with insulin followed by rapid cooling to 4 degrees C, to promote cell surface expression of GLUT4 and prevent subsequent endocytosis, was inhibited specifically by BAPTA-AM. This indicates that inhibition of glucose uptake by BAPTA-AM is independent of both trafficking and signal transduction. These data indicate that Ca2+ is involved in at least two different steps of the insulin-dependent recruitment of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane. One involves the translocation step. The second involves the fusion of GLUT4 vesicles with the plasma membrane. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that Ca2+/calmodulin plays a fundamental role in eukaryotic vesicle docking and fusion. Finally, BAPTA-AM may inhibit the activity of the facilitative transporters by binding directly to the transporter itself. 相似文献

AIMS: This study set out to investigate the effect of amino acids on the uptake of glucose by Micromonospora eichinospora (ATCC 15837). METHODS AND RESULTS: The specific rate of glucose uptake was found to be reduced when organic nitrogen components were present in the medium. Radioactive uptake studies revealed that the Km for glucose in this organism was 53 mm, indicating a low affinity for uptake compared with other actinomycete sugar transport systems. Individual amino acids negatively influenced the rate of glucose transport, suggesting a relationship between amino acid metabolism and glucose uptake in this organism. The sugar transport system was found to be an active process being inhibited by ionophores and KCN. CONCLUSIONS: The data suggest a direct link between amino acid metabolism and glucose uptake at the level of sugar transport. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study shows that the uptake of glucose, a major carbon source for many antibiotic fermentations, is significantly reduced in the presence of amino acids. This fact should inform the medium design and feeding regimes of fermentations involving similar actinomycetes. 相似文献

Hypoxia modulates the production of key inflammation-related adipokines and may underlie adipose tissue dysfunction in obesity. Here we have examined the effects of hypoxia on glucose transport by human adipocytes. Exposure of adipocytes to hypoxia (1% O2) for up to 24 h resulted in increases in GLUT-1 (9.2-fold), GLUT-3 (9.6-fold peak at 8 h), and GLUT-5 (8.9-fold) mRNA level compared to adipocytes in normoxia (21% O2). In contrast, there was no change in GLUT-4, GLUT-10 or GLUT-12 expression. The rise in GLUT-1 mRNA was accompanied by a substantial increase in GLUT-1 protein (10-fold), but there was no change in GLUT-5; GLUT-3 protein was not detected. Functional studies with [3H]2-deoxy-d-glucose showed that hypoxia led to a stimulation of glucose transport (4.4-fold) which was blocked by cytochalasin B. These results indicate that hypoxia increases monosaccharide uptake capacity in human adipocytes; this may contribute to adipose tissue dysregulation in obesity. 相似文献

Polymyxin B is an inhibitor of insulin-induced hypoglycemia in the whole animal model. Studies on the mode of inhibitory action 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The cyclic decapeptide, polymyxin B (PMXB), was found to inhibit hypoglycemia in mice receiving exogenous insulin (Amir, S., and Shechter, Y. (1985) Eur. J. Pharmacol. 110, 283-285). In this study, we have extended this observation to rats. Insulin-dependent hypoglycemia in rats is efficiently blocked at a 12:1 molar ratio of PMXB to insulin. This effect is highly specific, as it could not be mimicked by a variety of antibiotics or positively charged substances. Chemical modifications of PMXB have revealed that the ring structure, rather than the tail structure, is important for anti-insulin-like activity. Colistin A, which differs from PMXB by one conservative amino acid substitution in the ring structure, is devoid of this activity. Polymyxin B does not interact with insulin, nor does it alter the rate of insulin absorption and/or degradation, or the ability of insulin to bind to target tissues. This peptide inhibits hypoglycemia by blocking insulin-dependent activation of the hexose transport mechanism, as deduced by in vitro studies. The effect of insulin in stimulating hexose uptake (and subsequent glucose metabolism) in both isolated muscle tissue and adipocytes is blocked with little or no effect on the basal activities of these processes. Colistin A has no significant inhibiting effect. Other insulin-dependent activities, such as inhibition of lipolysis in adipocytes or synthesis of DNA in muscle cells, are not inhibited. It is concluded that PMXB inhibits, in a highly specific manner, the action of insulin in stimulating hexose transport and subsequent glucose metabolism, both in vitro and in the whole animal model. 相似文献

Abstract: The effect of long-term (2 weeks) exposure to 0–50 m M glucose and 0–1 m M sorbitol on myo -inositol metabolism was studied in cultured rat Schwann cells. Experiments were carried out to determine the effect of sorbinil and ascorbic acid on myo -inositol uptake in rat Schwann cells cultured in the presence of increased extracellular glucose or sorbitol. myo -Inositol uptake and its incorporation into phospholipids decreased significantly when cells were grown in ≥30 m M glucose for a period of 2 weeks. This inhibitory effect was partly blocked by sorbinil, an aldose reductase inhibitor, in a dose-dependent fashion. Significant prevention was achieved with 0.5 and 1 m M sorbinil. Ascorbic acid also prevented the reduction in myo -inositol uptake due to excess extracellular glucose, at 3 and 30 µ M concentrations, but not at 300 µ M . Neither sorbinil nor ascorbic acid could prevent the alterations in myo -inositol transport in cells exposed to high sorbitol levels for the same period of time. These data suggest that glucose-induced alteration of myo -inositol transport in Schwann cells is mediated, at least in part, via sorbitol accumulation. This myo -inositol transport impairment is prevented by sorbinil and also by ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid may hold a fresh promise for the treatment/prevention of diabetic neuropathy/complications, at least as an adjunct therapy along with known aldose reductase inhibitors. 相似文献

The insulin signaling pathway has been reported to mediate R-alpha-lipoic acid- (R-LA-)-stimulated glucose uptake into 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myotubes. We investigated the role of the thiol antioxidant dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) and intracellular glutathione (GSH) in R-LA-stimulated glucose transport and explored the hypothesis that R-LA could increase glucose uptake into 3T3-L1 adipocytes in an oxidant-mimetic manner. R-LA pretreatment of 3T3-L1 cells stimulated glucose transport at early time points (30 min - 6 h), whereas it inhibited glucose uptake at later time points. Analysis of the oxidized and reduced content of LA in cells and medium showed that >90% of lipoic acid present was in its oxidized form. Furthermore, all oxidized forms of LA (S-, R-, and racemic LA) stimulated glucose uptake, whereas the reduced form, dihydrolipoic acid, was ineffective. Intracellular GSH levels were not changed at the early time points (before 12 h), while longer preincubation (24 - 48 h) of cells with R-LA significantly increased intracellular GSH. Pretreatment of adipocytes with R-LA increased intracellular peroxide levels at early time points (30 min - 6 h), after which it was decreased (12 - 48 h). R-LA also increased tyrosine phosphorylation of immunoprecipitated insulin receptors from 3T3-L1 adipocytes. These results indicate that (i) 3T3-L1 adipocytes have a low capacity to reduce R-LA and the oxidized form of lipoic acid is responsible for stimulating glucose uptake, (ii) R-LA modulates glucose uptake by changing the intracellular redox status, and (iii) the insulin receptor is a potential cellular target for R-LA action. 相似文献

GLUT4, a 12 transmembrane protein, plays a major role in insulin mediated glucose transport in muscle and adipocytes. For glucose transport, the GLUT4 protein needs to be translocated to the plasma membrane from the intracellular pool and it is possible that certain compounds may be able to enhance this process. In the present work, we have shown that gallic acid can increase GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake activity in an Akt-independent but wortmannin-sensitive manner. Further analysis suggested the role of atypical protein kinase Cζ/λ in gallic acid mediated GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake. 相似文献

In conclusion, we suggest that n-3 PUFA can modulate the brain glucose transport in endothelial cells of the blood–brain barrier, possibly via changes in GLUT1 protein expression and activity. 相似文献

Regulation of hexose transport in BALB/c 3T3 preadipose cells: effects of glucose concentration and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Like many cell types in culture, both undifferentiated and differentiated BALB/c 3T3 preadipose cells respond to glucose deprivation with an increased uptake of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (deoxyglucose) and 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (methylglucose). Glucose readdition to glucose-deprived cultures resulted in a prompt fall in uptake activity; in undifferentiated cells, a half-maximally effective concentration of glucose was approximately 0.5 mM, while 0.1 mM was ineffective. Several hexoses differed in their efficacy of "deactivating" methylglucose transport in glucose-deprived cells; it appeared that a particular hexose must be metabolized beyond the 6-phosphate form to deactivate the transport system. Previous studies have shown that the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) stimulates hexose transport in undifferentiated and differentiated BALB/c 3T3 cells. In this study, it was found that TPA (and insulin in differentiated cells) prevented the glucose-induced deactivation of transport activity. Glucose-induced deactivation of transport activity was also prevented by cycloheximide or actinomycin D addition concomitantly with glucose. In glucose-starved cells, agents such as TPA and insulin appear to override a cellular control mechanism sensitive to the external concentration of glucose, so that elevated levels of transport activity are maintained under environmental conditions (i.e., a return to physiological glucose concentrations) that normally induce a fall in transport activity. 相似文献

Intracellular ascorbic acid is able to modulate neuronal glucose utilization between resting and activity periods. We have previously demonstrated that intracellular ascorbic acid inhibits deoxyglucose transport in primary cultures of cortical and hippocampal neurons and in HEK293 cells. The same effect was not seen in astrocytes. Since this observation was valid only for cells expressing glucose transporter 3 (GLUT3), we evaluated the importance of this transporter on the inhibitory effect of ascorbic acid on glucose transport. Intracellular ascorbic acid was able to inhibit (3)H-deoxyglucose transport only in astrocytes expressing GLUT3-EGFP. In C6 glioma cells and primary cultures of cortical neurons, which natively express GLUT3, the same inhibitory effect on (3)H-deoxyglucose transport and fluorescent hexose 2-[N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)amino]-2-deoxyglucose (2-NBDG) was observed. Finally, knocking down the native expression of GLUT3 in primary cultured neurons and C6 cells using shRNA was sufficient to abolish the ascorbic acid-dependent inhibitory effect on uptake of glucose analogs. Uptake assays using real-time confocal microscopy demonstrated that ascorbic acid effect abrogation on 2-NBDG uptake in cultured neurons. Therefore, ascorbic acid would seem to function as a metabolic switch inhibiting glucose transport in neurons under glutamatergic synaptic activity through direct or indirect inhibition of GLUT3. 相似文献

Kinetic measurement of the uptake of N-acetyl[4,5,6,7,8,9-14C]neuraminic acid by Escherichia coli K-235 was carried out in vivo at 37 degrees C in 0.1 M-Tris/maleate buffer, pH 7.0. Under these conditions uptake was linear for at least 30 min and the Km calculated for sialic acid was 30 microM. The transport system was osmotic-shock-sensitive and was strongly inhibited by uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation [2,4-dinitrophenol (100%); NaN3 (66%]) and by the metabolic inhibitors KCN (84%) and sodium arsenate (76%). The thiol-containing compounds mercaptoethanol, glutathione, cysteine, dithiothreitol and cysteine had no significant effect on the sialic acid-transport rate, whereas the thiol-modifying reagents N-ethylmaleimide, iodoacetate and p-chloromercuribenzoate almost completely blocked (greater than 94%) the uptake of this N-acetyl-sugar. N-Acetylglucosamine inhibited non-competitively the transport of N-acetylneuraminic acid, whereas other carbohydrates (hexoses, pentoses, hexitols, hexuronic acids, disaccharides, trisaccharides) and N-acetyl-sugars or amino acid derivatives (N-acetylmannosamine, N-acetylcysteine, N-acetylproline and N-acetylglutamic acid) did not have any effect. Surprisingly, L-methionine and its non-sulphur analogue L-norleucine partially blocked the transport of this sugar (50%), whereas D-methionine, D-norleucine, several L-methionine derivatives (L-methionine methyl ester, L-methionine ethyl ester, L-methionine sulphoxide) and other amino acids did not affect sialic acid uptake. The N-acetylneuraminic acid-transport system is induced by sialic acid and is strictly regulated by the carbon source used for E. coli growth, arabinose, lactose, glucose, fructose and glucosamine being the carbohydrates that cause the greatest repressions in this system. Addition of cyclic AMP to the culture broth reversed the glucose effect, indicating that the N-acetylneuraminic acid-uptake system is under catabolic regulation. Protein synthesis is not needed for sialic acid transport. 相似文献

Glucose uptake mutants have not been previously obtained in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, possibly because there seem to be at least two transport systems, of low and high affinities. We showed that snf3 (sucrose nonfermenting) mutants did not express high-affinity glucose uptake. Furthermore, their growth was completely impaired on low concentrations of glucose in the presence of antimycin A (which blocks respiration). Several genes which complemented the original snf3 gene were obtained on multicopy plasmids. Some of them, as well as plasmid-carried SNF3 itself, conferred a substantial increase in high-affinity glucose uptake in both snf3 and wild-type hosts. The effects of glucose on the expression of such a plasmid-determined high-affinity uptake resembled those in the wild type. Other genes complementing snf3 seemed to cause an increase in low-affinity glucose uptake. We suggest that SNF3 may function specifically in high-affinity glucose uptake, which is needed under some conditions of growth on low glucose concentrations. SNF3 itself or the other complementing genes may specify components of the glucose uptake system. 相似文献
