In Candida tropicalis cells grown on n-alkanes (C10-C13), the levels of the activities of the enzymes related to fatty acid β—oxidation—acyl-CoA oxidase, enoyl-CoA hydratase, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase—were found to be higher than those in cells grown on glucose, indicating that these enzymes were induced by alkanes. The enzymes were first confirmed to be localized only in peroxisomes, while none of these enzymes nor acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, which is known to participate in the initial step of mitochondrial β-oxidation in mammalian cells, were detected in yeast mitochondria under the conditions employed.The significance of the peroxisomal β-oxidation system in the metabolism of alkanes by the yeast was also discussed. 相似文献

Cirsium setidens is a perennial medicinal herb that is rich in flavonoids. We investigated in this study the effect of a C. setidens ethanol extract (CSE) on the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver in mice fed a high-fat diet (HF). C57BL/6J mice were fed either a control diet (CON) or HF for 8 weeks, and then fed CON, HF, or HF with 100 mg/kg of BW CSE (HF+CSE) for an additional 7 weeks. The final body weight and adipose tissue weight of the mice in the HF+CSE group were significantly lower than those in the HF group. CSE also markedly diminished both the lipid droplets in the liver tissues and decreased the hepatic and serum triglycerides (TG) concentrations. CSE strongly increased the hepatic mRNA levels of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT1) and medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD), the fatty acid β-oxidation enzymes. The hepatic levels of phosphorylated-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) were significantly higher in the HF+CSF group than in the HF group. These results suggest that CSE inhibited hepatic fat accumulation by up-regulating the expression of the fatty acid β-oxidation genes. 相似文献

Inflammation is a fundamental defensive response to harmful stimuli. However, it can cause damage if it does not subside. To avoid such damage, organisms have developed a mechanism called resolution of inflammation. Here we applied an untargeted metabolomics approach to a sterile and self-resolving animal model of acute inflammation, namely zymosan-induced peritonitis in mice, to examine the effect of inflammation and resolution on the metabolomic profiles. Significant and time-dependent changes in metabolite profiles after zymosan administration were observed in both peritoneal wash fluid (PWF) and plasma. These metabolomic changes correlated well with inflammatory chemokine or cytokine production. In PWF, most of metabolites that could detected increased in zymosan-treated mice, which is suggestive of inflammation, oxidative stress and increased energy demands. In plasma, most metabolites in the central metabolic pathway (glycolysis and TCA cycle) were significantly downregulated after zymosan administration. The concentration of the ketone body 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3-HB) in plasma and PWF increased in zymosan-injected animals indicating upregulation of fatty acid β-oxidation. Increased 3-HB level was observed in the cells that infiltrated into the peritoneal cavity and these infiltrated cells might contribute, at least in part, to the production of 3-HB in the peritoneal cavity. 相似文献

The testis consists of two types of tissues, the interstitial tissue and the seminiferous tubule, which have different functions and are assumed to have different nutritional metabolism. The localization of enzymes of the mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation system in the testis was investigated to obtain a better understanding of nutrient metabolism in the testis. Adult rat testis tissues were subjected to immunoblot analysis for quantitation of the amounts of enzyme proteins, to DNA microarray analysis for gene expression, and to immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy for localization. Quantitative analysis by immunoblot and DNA microarray revealed that enzymes occur abundantly in Leydig cells in the interstitial tissue but much less so in the seminiferous tubules. Immunohistochemistry revealed that Leydig cells in the interstitial tissue and Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules contain a full set of mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation enzymes in relatively plentiful amounts among the cells in the testis, but that this is not so in spermatogenic cells. This characteristic localization of the mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation system in the testis needs further elucidation in terms of a possible role for it in the nutritional metabolism of spermatogenesis.

A combination of selenium (Se) with other trace element is associated with partially modulate fatty acid distribution as well as reduction of the body weight and feed efficiency. To investigate whether or not Se treatment has an impact on lipid metabolism, we examined the levels of lipid metabolism-related factors, including abdominal fat, adiponectin, cholesterol, very long chain dehydrogenase (VLCAD), and medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) in 20-week-old Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats following sodium selenite treatment for 2?weeks. Herein, we observed that (a) Se treatment induced insulin-like effects by lowering the serum glucose level in rats; (b) Se-treated rats showed significance values decreases in abdominal fat mass, adipocyte size, and adiponectin, which are associated with lipid metabolism; (c) Se treatment led to reduced levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol; (d) fat tissue in Se-treated rats displayed significantly lower expression of adipocyte marker genes along with increased expression of VLCAD and MCAD; and (e) fatty liver formation and ??-oxidation gene expression were both significantly reduced in liver tissue of Se-treated rats. Therefore, our results suggest that Se may induce inhibition of adipocyte hypertrophy and abdominal fat accumulation along with suppression of fatty liver formation by the differential regulation of the gene expression for fatty acid ??-oxidation in the OLETF model. 相似文献

Propionyl-CoA arises as a metabolic intermediate from the degradation of propionate, odd-chain fatty acids, and some amino acids. Thus, pathways for catabolism of this intermediate have evolved in all kingdoms of life, preventing the accumulation of toxic propionyl-CoA concentrations. Previous studies have shown that fungi generally use the methyl citrate cycle for propionyl-CoA degradation. Here, we show that this is not the case for the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans despite its ability to use propionate and valerate as carbon sources. Comparative proteome analyses suggested the presence of a modified β-oxidation pathway with the key intermediate 3-hydroxypropionate. Gene deletion analyses confirmed that the enoyl-CoA hydratase/dehydrogenase Fox2p, the putative 3-hydroxypropionyl-CoA hydrolase Ehd3p, the 3-hydroxypropionate dehydrogenase Hpd1p, and the putative malonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase Ald6p essentially contribute to propionyl-CoA degradation and its conversion to acetyl-CoA. The function of Hpd1p was further supported by the detection of accumulating 3-hydroxypropionate in the hpd1 mutant on propionyl-CoA-generating nutrients. Substrate specificity of Hpd1p was determined from recombinant purified enzyme, which revealed a preference for 3-hydroxypropionate, although serine and 3-hydroxyisobutyrate could also serve as substrates. Finally, virulence studies in a murine sepsis model revealed attenuated virulence of the hpd1 mutant, which indicates generation of propionyl-CoA from host-provided nutrients during infection. 相似文献

We expressed the mouse gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter GAT4 (homologous to rat/ human GAT-3) in Xenopus laevis oocytes and examined its functional and pharmacological properties by using electrophysiological and tracer uptake methods. In the coupled mode of transport (Na+/ Cl-/GABA cotransport), there was tight coupling between charge flux and GABA flux across the plasma membrane (2 charges/GABA). Transport was highly temperature-dependent with a temperature coefficient (Q10) of 4.3. The GAT4 turnover rate (1.5 s(-l); -50 mV, 21 degrees C) and temperature dependence suggest physiological turnover rates of 15-20 s(-1). No uncoupled current was observed in the presence of Na+. In the absence of external Na+, GAT4 exhibited two distinct uncoupled currents. (i) A Cl- leak current (ICl(leak)) was observed when Na+ was replaced with choline or tetraethylammonium. The reversal potential of (ICl(leak)) followed the Cl- Nernst potential. (ii) A Li+ leak current (ILi(leak)) was observed when Na+ was replaced with Li+. Both leak currents were inhibited by Na+, and both were temperature-independent (Q10 approximately 1). The two leak modes appeared not to coexist, as Li+ inhibited (ICl(leak)). The results suggest the existence of cation- and anion-selective channel-like pathways in GAT4. Flufenamic acid inhibited GAT4 Na+/Cl-/GABA cotransport, ILi(leak), and ICl(leak), (Ki approximately 30 microM), and the voltage-induced presteady-state charge movements (Ki approximately 440 microM). Flufenamic acid exhibited little or no selectivity for GAT1, GAT2, or GAT3. Sodium and GABA concentration jicroumps revealed that slow Na+ binding to the transporter is followed by rapid GABA-induced translocation of the ligands across the plasma membrane. Thus, Na+ binding and associated conformational changes constitute the rate-limiting steps in the transport cycle. 相似文献

A syntrophic consortium was enriched in a basal medium containing cinnamate as the carbon and energy source. It was found
to consist of three morphologically distinct microbes, viz., a short, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium with distinctly pointed
ends, Papillibacter cinnamivorans; a rod-shaped, motile bacterium with rounded ends, Syntrophus sp.; and a methanoarchaeon, Methanobacterium sp. This methanogen was then replaced by a collection strain of Methanobacterium formicicum. A syntrophic interdependency of the three partners of the consortium was observed during growth on cinnamate. In the presence
of bromoethanesulfonic acid (BESA), cinnamate was transformed to benzoate, whereas under methanogenic conditions without BESA,
cinnamate was first transformed to benzoate via β-oxidation and subsequently completely degraded into acetate, CH4, and CO2. Papillibacter cinnamivorans was responsible for benzoate production from cinnamate, whereas a syntrophic association between Syntrophus sp. and the methanogen degraded benzoate to acetate, CH4, and CO2. A new anaerobic degradation pathway of cinnamate into benzoate via β-oxidation by a pure culture of P. cinnamivorans is proposed.

The interaction between the “electron transferring flavoprotein” (ETF) and medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) enables successful flavin to flavin electron transfer, crucial for the β-oxidation of fatty acids. The exact biochemical determinants for ETF binding to MCAD are unknown. Here we show that binding of human ETF, to MCAD, was inhibited by 2,3-butanedione and diethylpyrocarbonate (DEPC) and reversed by incubation with free arginine and hydroxylamine respectively. Spectral analyses of native ETF vs modified ETF suggested that flavin binding was not affected and that the loss of ETF activity with MCAD involved modification of one ETF arginine residue and one ETF histidine residue respectively. MCAD and octanoyl-CoA protected ETF against inactivation by both 2,3-butanedione and DEPC indicating that the arginine and histidine residues are present in or around the MCAD binding site. Comparison of exposed arginine and histidine residues among different ETF species, however, indicates that arginine residues are highly conserved but that histidine residues are not. These results lead us to conclude that this single arginine residue is essential for the binding of ETF to MCAD, but that the single histidine residue, although involved, is not. 相似文献

Peroxisomes play an essential role in maintaining fatty acid homeostasis. Although mitochondria are also known to participate in the catabolism of fatty acids via β-oxidation, differences exist between the peroxisomal and mitochondrial β-oxidation. Only peroxisomes, but not mitochondrion, can shorten very long chain fatty acids. Here, we describe the crystal structure of a ternary complex of peroxisomal 2,4-dienoyl CoA reductases (pDCR) with hexadienoyl CoA and NADP, as a prototype for comparison with the mitochondrial 2,4-dienoyl CoA reductase (mDCR) to shed light on the differences between the enzymes from the two organelles at the molecular level. Unexpectedly, the structure of pDCR refined to 1.84 Å resolution reveals the absence of the tyrosine-serine pair seen in the active site of mDCR, which together with a lysine and an asparagine have been deemed a hallmark of the SDR family of enzymes. Instead, aspartate hydrogen-bonded to the Cα hydroxyl via a water molecule seems to perturb the water molecule for protonation of the substrate. Our studies provide the first structural evidence for participation of water in the DCR-catalyzed reactions. Biochemical studies and structural analysis suggest that pDCRs can catalyze the shortening of six-carbon-long substrates in vitro. However, the Km values of pDCR for short chain acyl CoAs are at least 6-fold higher than those for substrates with 10 or more aliphatic carbons. Unlike mDCR, hinge movements permit pDCR to process very long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. 相似文献

Members of the β1 integrin family mediate cellular adherence to a wide range of extracellular and cell surface associated ligands. Conformational changes have been shown to be associated with integrin activation and ligand binding. Some studies suggest that there may be a restricted region of the β1 integrin that serves as the target for regulatory antibodies which can inhibit or stimulate integrin function. Here we identify an inhibitory epitope that is located at a distinct sight from that suggested for other inhibitory antibodies. Three different adhesion blocking antibodies, JB1A, C30B, and DUB bind to a peptide corresponding to residues 82–87 of the mature β1 chain. Mn++ inhibited the binding of JB1A to purified β? integrin. In contrast the binding of several other antibodies to β1 were not influenced by these conditions. JB1A binding to purified peptide was also inhibited by Mn++ suggesting that it related to interference with the antibody function rather than a cation dependent change in the epitope. Our data 1) directly demonstrates the peptide sequence recognised by three adhesion blocking antibodies to the human β1 integrin chain 2) identifies a novel epitope located at residues 82–87, distinct from that of previously described regulatory epitopes 3) characterises a Mn++ sensitive antibody integrin interaction. Collectively, these results indicate the existence of multiple regulatory sites on the β1 integrin molecule. 相似文献

We recently used a synthetic/bottom-up approach to establish the identity of the four enzymes composing an engineered functional reversal of the β-oxidation cycle for fuel and chemical production in Escherichia coli (J. M. Clomburg, J. E. Vick, M. D. Blankschien, M. Rodriguez-Moya, and R. Gonzalez, ACS Synth Biol 1:541–554, 2012, http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/sb3000782). While native enzymes that catalyze the first three steps of the pathway were identified, the identity of the native enzyme(s) acting as the trans-enoyl coenzyme A (CoA) reductase(s) remained unknown, limiting the amount of product that could be synthesized (e.g., 0.34 g/liter butyrate) and requiring the overexpression of a foreign enzyme (the Euglena gracilis
trans-enoyl-CoA reductase [EgTER]) to achieve high titers (e.g., 3.4 g/liter butyrate). Here, we examine several native E. coli enzymes hypothesized to catalyze the reduction of enoyl-CoAs to acyl-CoAs. Our results indicate that FabI, the native enoyl-acyl carrier protein (enoyl-ACP) reductase (ENR) from type II fatty acid biosynthesis, possesses sufficient NADH-dependent TER activity to support the efficient operation of a β-oxidation reversal. Overexpression of FabI proved as effective as EgTER for the production of butyrate and longer-chain carboxylic acids. Given the essential nature of fabI, we investigated whether bacterial ENRs from other families were able to complement a fabI deletion without promiscuous reduction of crotonyl-CoA. These characteristics from Bacillus subtilis FabL enabled ΔfabI complementation experiments that conclusively established that FabI encodes a native enoyl-CoA reductase activity that supports the β-oxidation reversal in E. coli. 相似文献

It is generally admitted that the ascomycete yeasts of the subphylum Saccharomycotina possess a single fatty acid ß-oxidation pathway located exclusively in peroxisomes, and that they lost mitochondrial ß-oxidation early during evolution. In this work, we showed that mutants of the opportunistic pathogenic yeast Candida lusitaniae which lack the multifunctional enzyme Fox2p, a key enzyme of the ß-oxidation pathway, were still able to grow on fatty acids as the sole carbon source, suggesting that C. lusitaniae harbored an alternative pathway for fatty acid catabolism. By assaying 14Cα-palmitoyl-CoA consumption, we demonstrated that fatty acid catabolism takes place in both peroxisomal and mitochondrial subcellular fractions. We then observed that a fox2Δ null mutant was unable to catabolize fatty acids in the mitochondrial fraction, thus indicating that the mitochondrial pathway was Fox2p-dependent. This finding was confirmed by the immunodetection of Fox2p in protein extracts obtained from purified peroxisomal and mitochondrial fractions. Finally, immunoelectron microscopy provided evidence that Fox2p was localized in both peroxisomes and mitochondria. This work constitutes the first demonstration of the existence of a Fox2p-dependent mitochondrial β-oxidation pathway in an ascomycetous yeast, C. lusitaniae. It also points to the existence of an alternative fatty acid catabolism pathway, probably located in peroxisomes, and functioning in a Fox2p-independent manner. 相似文献

Aberrant expression of the type V collagen α1(V) chain can underlie the connective tissue disorder classic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and autoimmune responses against the α1(V) chain are linked to lung transplant rejection and atherosclerosis. The α1(V) collagenous COL1 domain is thought to contain greater numbers of post-translational modifications (PTMs) than do similar domains of other fibrillar collagen chains, PTMs consisting of hydroxylated prolines and lysines, the latter of which can be glycosylated. These types of PTMs can contribute to epitopes that underlie immune responses against collagens, and the high level of PTMs may contribute to the unique biological properties of the α1(V) chain. Here we use high resolution mass spectrometry to map such PTMs in bovine placental α1(V) and human recombinant pro-α1(V) procollagen chains. Findings include the locations of those PTMs that vary and those PTMs that are invariant between these α1(V) chains from widely divergent sources. Notably, an unexpectedly large number of hydroxyproline residues were mapped to the X-positions of Gly-X-Y triplets, contrary to expectations based on previous amino acid analyses of hydrolyzed α1(V) chains from various tissues. We attribute this difference to the ability of tandem mass spectrometry coupled to nanoflow chromatographic separations to detect lower-level PTM combinations with superior sensitivity and specificity. The data are consistent with the presence of a relatively large number of 3-hydroxyproline sites with less than 100% occupancy, suggesting a previously unknown mechanism for the differential modification of α1(V) chain and type V collagen properties. 相似文献

A number of N-acyl-L-proline derivatives were synthesized and their biological activities were investigated by using lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv. Sacramento) seedling test. A wide variety of these compounds promoted root growth at 25°C both under light and in darkness. Of the compounds tested, N-(2-ftuorobenzoyl)-L-proline methyl ester (4) showed the highest activity and caused a 270% increase in the root elongation compared to the control. N-(2-Naphthoyl)-L-proline methyl ester (14) promoted the root growth, while N-(1-naphthoyl)-L-proline methyl ester inhibited it. L-Proline, benzoic acid, and 2-naphthoic acid had no significant effect on lettuce seedlings. Compounds 4 and 14, and N-(2-chlorobenzoyl)-L-proline methyl ester (7) reduced the inhibitory effect of 1 ppm ABA on the root growth, while the D-isomer of 4 was less activite than compound 4. Compounds 4, 7, and 14 did not show any rescue-activity for the complete inhibition of germination that was caused by treating 10 ppm of ABA. 相似文献
