Amino acid transport in Mycoplasma   总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1  
The uptake of l-histidine by Mycoplasma fermentans and l-methionine by M. hominis was found to be dependent on temperature and pH and to follow saturation kinetics. Several metabolic inhibitors inhibited this uptake. The transport system for l-methionine was highly specific. The l-histidine transport system was less specific, and the uptake was competitively inhibited by l-arginine and l-lysine. l-Histidine accumulated in the intracellular pool of M. fermentans at a concentration about 200 times that found in the medium. Efflux of accumulated l-histidine was demonstrated at 37 C, but not at 0 C. The rate of efflux was greatly accelerated by addition of l-histidine to the medium. The findings indicate that the Mycoplasma cell membrane contains specific transport systems resembling the permease systems of other microorganisms.  相似文献

The uptake of (14)C-alpha-methyl-d-glucoside (alphaMG) by washed cells of Mycoplasma strain Y was found to be dependent on the supply of metabolic energy. Glycerol or d-mannose, but not l-lactate, would serve as an energy source. Uptake was inhibited by fluoride, iodoacetate, and arsenate, but not by 2,4-dinitrophenol. d-Glucose was inhibitory, presumably by competing for the transport system. The initial product of accumulation had the properties of a phosphate ester of alphaMG. The proportion of free alphaMG in the cells increased with time, until a steady state was reached in which uptake was balanced by the efflux of free alphaMG from the cells. Broken-cell preparations catalyzed a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of alphaMG and of d-glucose.  相似文献

Galactose-grown cells of Streptococcus lactis ML3 acculated alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) by using energy derived from glycolysis and arginine catabolism. The transport system displayed low-affinity Michaelis-Menten saturation kinetics. Using galactose or arginine as energy sources, similar V max and K m values for AIB entry were obtained, but on prolonged incubation the intracellular steady-state concentration of AIB in cells metabolizing arginine was only 65 to 70% that attained by glycolyzing cells. Efflux of AIB FROM PRELOADED CElls was temperature dependent and exhibited the characteristics of a first-order reaction. The rate of AIB exit was accelerated two- to threefold in the presence of metabolizable energy sources. Metabolic inhibitors including p-chloromercuribenzoate, dinitrophenol, azide, arsentate, and N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide either prevented or greatly reduced AIB uptake. Fluoride, iodoacetate and N-ethylmaleimide abolished galactose-dependent, but not arginine-energized, AIB uptake. K+ and Rb+ reduced the steady-state intracellular AIB concentration by approximately 40%, and these cations also induced rapid efflux of solute from actively transporting cells. Equivalent concentrations (10 mM) of Na+, Li+, or NH4+ were much less inhibitory. The proton-conducting ionophores tetrachlorosalicylanilide and carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenlyhydrazone abolished uptake and induced AIB efflux even though glycolysis and arginine catabolism continued at 60 and 140%, respectively, of control rates. A proton motive force is most likely involved in the active transport of AIB, whereas data from efflux studies suggest that energy is coupled to AIB exit in cells of S. lactis ML3.  相似文献

Primary cultures of rabbit-kidney epithelial cells derived from purified proximal tubules were maintained without fibroblast overgrowth in a hormone-supplemented serum-free medium (Medium RK-1). A hormone- deletion study indicated that the primary cultures derived from purified rabbit proximal tubules required all of the three supplements in Medium RK-1 (insulin, transferrin, and hydrocortisone) for optimal growth but did not grow in response to EGF and T3. In contrast, the epithelial cells in primary cultures derived from an unpurified preparation of rabbit kidney tubules and glomeruli grew in response to EGF and T3, as well as insulin, transferrin, and hydrocortisone. These observations suggest that kidney epithelial cells derived from different segments of the nephron grow differently in response to hormones and growth factors. Differentiated functions of the primary cultures derived from proximal tubules were examined. Multicellular domes were observed, indicative of transepithelial solute transport by the monolayers. The proximal tubule cultures also accumulated alpha- methylglucoside (alpha-MG) against a concentration gradient. However, little or no alpha-MG accumulation was observed in the absence of Na+. Metabolic inhibitor studies also indicated that alpha-MG uptake by the primaries is an energy-dependent process, and depends upon the activity of the Na+/K+ ATPase. Phlorizin at 0.1 mM significantly inhibited 1 mM alpha-MG uptake whereas 0.1 mM phloretin did not have a significant inhibitory effect. Similar observations have been made concerning the Na+-dependent sugar-transport system located on the lumenal side of the proximal tubule, whereas the Na+-independent sugar transporter on the peritubular side is more sensitive to inhibition by phloretin than phlorizin. The cultures also exhibited PTH-sensitive cyclic AMP synthesis and brush-border enzymes typical of proximal cells. However, the activities of the enzymes leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline phosphatase, and gamma-glutamyl-transpeptidase were lower in the cultures than in purified proximal-tubule preparations from which they are derived.  相似文献

3-O-Methyl-D-glucose transport across the plasma membrane of isolated rat hepatocytes was followed for net entry of the sugar into sugar-free cells (zero trans entry), net exit of sugar into sugar-free medium (zero trans exit) and for unidirectional entry and exit fluxes when cells had been equilibrated with sugar in the extracellular medium (equilibrium exchange entry and exit). These measurements were performed at 20 degrees C and pH 7.4 by the use of simple manual methods. Initial rates of transport showed a Michaelis--Menten dependency on the sugar concentration at the cis side of the membrane over the range of concentrations tested (100 microM to 100 mM). Transport was found to be symmetrical with no evidence of substrate stimulation of transport from the trans side of the membrane. Parameters (mean values +/- S.E.M.) of transport were estimated as Vmax. 86.2 +/- 9.7 mmol/litre of cell water per min and Km 18.1 +/- 5.9 mM for exchange entry, Vmax. 78.8 +/- 5.3 mmol/litre of cell water per min and Km 17.6 +/- 3.5 mM for exchange exit, Vmax. 84.1 +/- 8.4 mmol/litre of cell water per min and Km 16.8 +/- 4.6 mM for zero trans exit.  相似文献

Effect of epinephrine on alpha-methyl-D-glucopyranoside uptake in renal proximal tubule cells. Epinephrine has known to be a very important factor in the regulation of renal sodium excretion. However, the effect of epinephrine on Na+/glucose cotransporter was not fully elucidated. Thus, we examined effect of epinephrine on alpha-methyl-D-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake and its related signal pathways in the primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). Epinephrine inhibited alpha-MG uptake in a time- and dose-dependent manner and also decreased SGLT1 and SGLT2 protein level. Both phentolamine and propranolol completely prevented epinephrine-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake. The epinephrine-induced inhibition of alpha-MG uptake was blocked by SQ-22536 or myristoylated PKA inhibitor amide 14-22 and epinephrine increased the intracellular cAMP content. In western blotting analysis, epinephrine increases phosphorylation of p44/42 and p38 MAPKs and PD 98059 or SB 203580 blocked the effect of epinephrine. In addition, epinephrine increased AA release and PGE2 production and effects of epinephrine on alpha-MG uptake and AA release were blocked by staurosporine and bisindolylmaleimide I or mepacrine and AACOCF3. Indeed, epinephrine translocated PKC or cPLA2 from cytosol to membrane fraction. In conclusion, epinephrine partially inhibits the alpha-MG uptake through PKA, PKC, p44/42, p38 MAPK, and cPLA2 pathways in the PTCs.  相似文献

Active transport of pyridoxine, pyridoxal, and pyridoxamine occurs in resting cells of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis 4228 and can lead to intracellular concentrations of free vitamin much higher than those supplied externally. The initial Km for pyridoxine uptake is 3.6 x 10(-7) M at 30 degrees and pH 4.5, which are optimum for growth. Transport is inhibited by many unphosphorylated vitamin analogs, the most effective being 5'-deoxypyridoxine, 5'-deoxypridoxal, toxopyrimidine, 4'-deoxypyridoxine, and 3-amino-3-deoxypyridoxine. Two distinct uptake systems that differ in structural specificity and ionic requirements are present. One, with optimum pH of 3.5, transports pyridoxal effectively, but not pyridoxamine; the other (optimum pH 6.0) transports pyridoxamine effectively, but not pyridoxal. Both systems transport pyridoxine, while neither transports pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. Other properties of these systems are similar, indicating that they share certain elements in common. An initial temperature optimum of 30 degrees is observed for pyrodoxine transport and, at this temperature, an "overshoot" in intracellular vitamin levels, with subsequent decrease to a constant level, occurs with time. It appears that intracellular vitamin, or a derivative, activates the exit mechanism for the vitamin. Exit rates also depend on the resuspension buffer and are increased in the presence of glucose and decreased by azide. Above 30 degrees net uptake of pyridoxine drops initially, then rapidly increases to a second optimum at 50 degrees; the uptake system is inactivated at about 55 degrees. The optimum at 50 degrees apparently results from activation of inflow as exit is rapid and is accelerated by azide. No overshoot was detected at 50 degrees, so it appears that the exit system is not regulated by intracellular vitamin at this temperature. A phase transition in membrane lipids occurs at 30 degrees and may be responsible for the change in properties of the inflow and exit mechanisms above this temperature.  相似文献

In the frog intestine, both in vitro and in vivo, experiments were carried out in order to increase knowledge of the mechanism of sugar exit across the basolateral membrane of the enterocyte. The frog intestine was chosen because it lacks crypt cells and, consequently, any external fluid circuit mechanism during sugar transport can be avoided. Therefore, the sugar concentration in the absorbate collected on the serosal side is likely to be similar to that present underneath the basolateral membrane of the enterocyte. Under this condition, cell and absorbate sugar concentrations are similar; yet there is a concomitant net transintestinal sugar transport. Moreover, in in vivo experiments a net transintestinal sugar transport takes place even against a concentration difference. These results suggest that sugar exit across the basolateral membrane is not simply due to a chemically facilitated diffusion.  相似文献

Glucose transport in Cladosporium resinae was studies with the aid of the non-metabolizable glucose analogue 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (3-O-MG). 3-O-MG, transported as a free sugar without phosphorylation, was found to inhibit glucose uptake competitively. Conversely, glucose was a competitive inhibitor of 3-O-MG uptake. Moreover, both glucose and 3-O-MG were able to bring about rapid counterflow intracellular 3-O-MG. Thus, glucose and 3-O-MG share the same entry and exit systems. The transport of 3-O-MG is carrier mediated and energy dependent as shown by saturation kinetics, strong temperature dependence, accumulation of unaltered 3-O-MG against a concentration gradient, and inhibition of uptake by NaN3, NaCN, and 2,4-dinitrophenol. The glucose transport system appeared to be constitutive for glucose transport in cells grown on fructose, galactose, mannose, xylose, or glucose. There was no derepressible low-Km glucose transport system in C. resinae. n-Hexane and n-heptane were found to inhibit 3-O-MG uptake rapidly at temperatures above 20 C. Over 50% inhibition of the uptake rate occurred after only 10 min of incubation with n-hexane at 30 C. The percentage of inhibition in the presence of n-hexane, compared to controls in the absence of n-hexane, was found to increase with increasing temperature. Longer-chain n-alkanes (C8 to C18) had no significant effect on uptake. The efflux of intracellular 3-O-MG, which appeared to occur by facilitated diffusion, was not affected by any of the n-alkanes tested including n-hexane.  相似文献

3-O-Methyl-D-glucose transport across the plasma membrane of cultured human lymphocytes of the IM-9 line was followed for net entry into sugar-free cells (zero trans entry), net exit into sugar-free medium (zero trans exit) and for equilibration of labelled sugar in cells with the same sugar concentration in the intracellular water as in the medium (equilibrium exchange). The measurements were performed at 37 degrees C (pH 7.4). Equilibrium exchange of 1 mM 3-O-methylglucose (t 1/2 about 7 S) was exponential, suggesting a homogeneous cell suspension. Initial rates of transport showed a Michaelis-Menten dependency on the sugar concentration. The transport system was found to be asymmetric with the following kinetic parameters. Zero trans entry: Km = 2.8 mM, Vmax = 10.7 mM X min-1. Zero trans exit: Km = 9.5 mM, Vmax = 37.9 mM X min-1. Equilibrium exchange: Km = 9.9 mM, Vmax = 44.0 mM X min-1. Finally, the affinity constant for the internal site was measured as approx. 1.2 mM using the infinite cis protocol.  相似文献

Glucose transport in the rat erythrocyte is subject to feedback regulation by sugar metabolism at high but not at low temperatures [Abumrad et al. (1988) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 938, 222-230]. This indicates that temperature, which is known to alter membrane fluidity, also alters sensitivity of transport to regulation. In the present work, we have investigated a possible correlation between the effects of temperature on rate-limiting steps of glucose transport and on membrane fluidity. The dependences of methylglucose efflux and influx on cis and trans methylglucose concentrations were studied at temperatures between 17 and 37 degrees C. Membrane fluidity was monitored over the same temperature range by using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. External sugar did not affect efflux, and the Km and Vmax of sugar exit were respectively the same as the Km and Vmax of equilibrium exchange. These Km's were relatively temperature independent, but the Vmax's increased sharply with temperature. The Km and Vmax of methylglucose entry were respectively much lower than the Km and Vmax of exit and exchange. Consistent with the above, intracellular sugar greatly enhanced sugar influx, and did so by increasing the influx Vmax without affecting the influx Km. Both lines of evidence indicated that the conformational change of the empty sugar-binding site from in-facing to out-facing orientation is the rate-limiting step of sugar entry into the rat erythrocyte. This was the case at all temperatures; however, the discrepancies of coefficients declined significantly with increasing temperature.2+ The temperature dependence of the slowest step (change from in- to out-facing empty carrier) was evaluated.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Vinblastine and colchicine, compounds which effect the state of aggregation of microtubules, were investigated to determine if changes in the rate of sugar transport were produced by these compounds. Vinblastine accelerated 3-O-methylglucose entry into avian erythrocytes. At a concentration of 1.5 mm, transport was accelerated two-fold. The effect of vinblastine was not attributed to cell energy depletion or to increased entry by simple diffusion. Stimulation of transport did not require preincubation of the cells with vinblastine, and the effect was reversible. Colchicine (2 mm) inhibited 3-O-methylglucose entry in aerobic or anoxic intact red cells and in red cell ghosts. A change in the state of aggregation or activity of the microtubular system could represent a model for regulation of a membrane carrier. The present results would lend support to this model.  相似文献

d-Mannose derivatives have been synthesised which are crosslinked through their C-4 hydroxyls to propyl-2-amine. Coupling to the amino group gave a fluorodinitrobenzene derivative, a nitroazidophenyl derivative and an azidosalicylamide derivative. Each of these derivatives was shown to have high affinity for the human erythrocyte sugar transport system. The affinity constant for the nitroazidophenyl derivative was not altered by temperature changes. In rat adipocytes treated with insulin, the affinity constants for the derivatives were up to 1000-fold lower than for the parent sugar. In the absence of insulin the affinity constants for the derivatives, but not for d-mannose, were 3-times higher than in insulin-treated cells. By preparation of radiolabelled derivatives we have shown that the compounds are not transported either by erythrocytes or by adipocytes. Thus the crosslinked sugars are good outside-specific analogues.  相似文献

The kinetic parameters of net exit of D-glucose from human red blood cells have been measured after the cells were loaded to 18 mM, 75 mM and 120 mM at 2 degrees C and 75 mM and 120 mM at 20 degrees C. Reducing the temperature, or raising the loading concentration raises the apparent Km for net exit. Deoxygenation also reduces the Km for D-glucose exit from red blood cells loaded initially to 120 mM at 20 degrees C from 32.9 +/- 2.3 mM (13) with oxygenated blood to 20.5 +/- 1.3 mM (17) (P less than 0.01). Deoxygenation increases the ratio Vmax/Km from 5.29 +/- 0.26 min-1 (13) for oxygenated blood to 7.13 +/- 0.29 min-1 (17) for deoxygenated blood (P less than 0.001). The counterflow of D-glucose from solutions containing 1 mM 14C-labelled D-glucose was measured at 2 degrees C and 20 degrees C. Reduction in temperature, reduced the maximal level to which labelled D-glucose was accumulated and altered the course of equilibration of the specific activity of intracellular D-glucose from a single exponential to a more complex form. Raising the internal concentration from 18 mM to 90 mM at 2 degrees C also alters the course of equilibration of labelled D-glucose within the cell to a complex form. The apparent asymmetry of the transport system may be estimated from the intracellular concentrations of labelled and unlabelled sugar at the turning point of the counterflow transient. The estimates of asymmetry obtained from this approach indicate that there is no significant asymmetry at 20 degrees C and at 2 degrees C asymmetry is between 3 and 6. This is at least 20-fold less than predicted from the kinetic parameter asymmetries for net exit and entry. None of the above results fit a kinetic scheme in which the asymmetry of the transport system is controlled by intrinsic differences in the kinetic parameters at the inner and outer membrane surface. These results are consistent with a model for sugar transport in which movement between sugar within bound and free intracellular compartments can become the rate-limiting step in controlling net movement into, or out of the cell.  相似文献

1. Suspensions of rat thymocytes accumulate free 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-dGlc) within the cytosol to a concentration approx. 25-fold above the external concentration. This active accumulation was enhanced by 40 nM-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (phorbol). 2. The Km for zero-trans uptake in control cells was 2.3 +/- 0.14 mM and Vmax. was 0.41 +/- 0.08 mumol/min per 10(10) cells (n = 6). In cells treated with phorbol (40 nM) the Km for zero-trans uptake was 1.2 +/- 0.13 mM and Vmax. 0.46 +/- 0.03 mumol/min per 10(10) cells (n = 6). The Km was decreased significantly by phorbol (P less than 0.01). 3. Phorbol-dependent activation of thymocytes delayed exit of free 2-dGlc into sugar-free solution and prevented exchange exit. Activation had no effect on 3-O-methyl D-glucoside (3-OMG) exit. 4. Coupling of 2-dGlc transport to hexokinase activity was determined by observing the effects of various concentrations of unlabelled cytosolic 2-dGlc on influx of labelled 2-dGlc into the hexose phosphate pool. In control cells this coupling was 0.81 +/- 0.02 and in phorbol-activated cells it was 0.92 +/- 0.01 (P less than 0.01). 5. The high-affinity inhibitor of hexokinase, mannoheptulose, inhibited uptake of 2-dGlc in both control and phorbol-treated cells. These data are consistent with a model for activation of sugar transport in which hexokinase activity is integrated with the sugar transporter at the endofacial surface. The results suggest that phorbol increases the degree of coupling transport with hexokinase activity, thereby leading to an increase in the rate of uptake of 2-dGlc, a decrease in exit of free 2-dGlc from the cytosol and an increase in free 2-dGlc accumulation.  相似文献

α-Methyl-d-glucoside has been shown to be a non-metabolizable sugar which is accumulated against a concentration gradient by a Na+-dependent and phlorizin inhibited process by adult rat renal cortical slices incubatedin vitro at 37 °C. (2) The velocity of accumulation increased linearly with substrate concentrations up to 1.5 mM, but at higher concentrations obeyed saturable kinetics with an apparentKm of about 6 mM. (3) Uptake was enhanced as Na+ was increased from 0 to 100 mequiv/l. Higher Na+ concentrations caused no further effect. (4) A pH maximum of transport occurred between 7.35 and 8.0. (5) Glucoside uptake was inhibited byd-glucose,d-galactose,d-fructose,d-mannose andd-ribose. The inhibition byd-glucose andd-galactose was competitive with apparentKt of 24 and 53 mM, respectively. (6) Bothd-glucose andd-galactose accelerated the efflux of α-methyl-d-glucoside from preloaded cells. (7) Kidney cortex slices from 1-day-old rats were unable to accumulate α-methyl-d-glucoside to form a concentration gradient. The ability to concentrate the glucoside increased progressively after birth, reaching near normal in tissue from 15-day-old animals. The data indicate that the transport process in the newborn is rudimentary, failing also to display accelerated efflux phenomenon. (8) α-Methyl-d-glucoside is transported in rat kidney cortex by a mechanism similar in many ways to that ofd-galactose.  相似文献

Sugarcane cell suspensions took up sugar from the medium at rates comparable to or greater than sugarcane tissue slices or plants in the field. This system offers an opportunity for the study of kinetic and energetic mechanisms of sugar transport in storage parenchyma-like cells in the absence of heterogeneity introduced by tissues. The following results were obtained: (a) The sugar uptake system was specific for hexoses; as previously proposed, sucrose was hydrolyzed by an extracellular invertase before the sugar moieties were taken up; no evidence for multiple sugar uptake systems was obtained. — (b) Uptake of the glucose-analog 3-O-methylglucose (3-OMG) reached a plateau value with an intracellular concentration higher than in the medium (approximately 15-fold). — (c) There was a balance of influx and efflux during steady state; the rate of exchange influx was lower than the rate of net influx; the Km value was higher (70 M) than for net influx (24 M); the exchange efflux is proposed to be mediated by the same transport system with a Km value of approximately 2.6 mM for internal 3-OMG; the rate of net efflux of hexoses was less than a third of the rate of exchange efflux. — (d) The uptake of hexoses proceeded as proton-symport with a stoichiometry of 0.87 H+ per sugar; during the onset of hexose transport there was a K+ exit of 0.94 K+ per sugar for charge compensation. (It was assumed that the real stoichiometries are 1 H+ and 1 K+ per sugar.) The Km values for sugar transport and sugar-induced proton uptake were identical. Sucrose induced proton uptake only in the presence of cell wall invertase. — (e) There was no net proton uptake with 3-OMG by cells which were preloaded with glucose though there was significant sugar uptake. It is assumed, therefore, that the exit of hexose occurs together with protons. — (f) The protonmotive potential of sugarcane cells corresponded to about 120 mV: pH-gradient 1.1 units, membrane potential of-60 mV (these values increased if vacuolar pH and membrane potential were also considered). It was abolished by uncouplers, and the magnitude of the components depended on the external pH value. We present evidence for the operation of a proton-coupled sugar transport system in cell suspensions that were derived from, and have characteristics of, storage parenchyma. The quantitative rates of sugar transport suggest that the role of this transport system is not limiting for sugar storage.Abbreviations 3-OMG 3-O methylglucose - DMO 5,5-dimethyl-2, 4-oxazolidinedione - TPP tetraphenylphosphonium chloride - CCCP carbonyl cyanide, m-chlorophenylhydrozane  相似文献

Mutation in a gene (symbol Hyp) on the X chromosome causes hypophosphatemia in the mouse. The murine phenotype is a counterpart of X-linked hypophosphatemia in man. Both exhibit impaired renal reabsorption of phosphate in vivo. In vitro studies in the Hyp mouse have shown decreased Na+-dependent phosphate transport at the brush border membrane and abnormal mitochondrial vitamin D metabolism. To determine whether the mutant renal phenotype is intrinsic to the kidney or dependent upon putative extrinsic humoral factor(s) for its expression, we established primary cultures of renal epithelial cells from normal and Hyp male mouse kidneys. The cells are derived from proximal tubule. Initial uptake rates of phosphate and alpha-methyl-D-glucopyranoside (alpha-MG), a metabolically inert analogue of D-glucose, were measured simultaneously in confluent monolayers exhibiting epithelial polarity and tight junctions. The mean phosphate/alpha-MG uptake ratio in Hyp cultures was 82% of that in normal cells (P less than 0.01, n = 96). Moreover, the production of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was significantly elevated in confluent cultures of Hyp cells relative to normal cells. These results imply that the Hyp gene is expressed in situ in renal epithelium and suggest that humoral factors are not necessary for the mutant renal phenotype in X-linked hypophosphatemia of mouse and man.  相似文献

Benzeneboronic acid, 4-methoxybenzeneboronic acid, 3-nitrobenzeneboronic acid, and sulphonated benzeneboronic acid have been used to displace the pseudo-equilibria established in aqueous alkali between d-glucose, d-fructose, and d-mannose to give greatly increased yields of d-fructose. The effect of reaction temperature, pH, overall concentration, and molar ratio of acid:sugar on the yield of d-fructose has been investigated by using an automated assay for d-fructose.  相似文献

Insulin stimulated the uptake of 86Rb+ (a K+ analog) in rat adipocytes and increased the steady state concentration of intracellular potassium. Half-maximal stimulation occurred at an insulin concentration of 200 pM. Both basal- and insulin-stimulated 86Rb+ transport rates depended on the concentration of external K+, external Na+, and were 90% inhibited by 10(-3) M ouabain and 10(-3) M KCN, indicating that the hormone was activating the (Na+,K+)-ATPase. Insulin had no effect on the entry of 22Na+ or exit of 86Rb+. Kinetic analysis demonstrated that insulin acted by increasing the maximum velocity, Vmax, of 86Rb+ entry. Inhibition of the rate of Rb+ uptake by ouabain was best described by a biphasic inhibition curve. Scatchard analysis of ouabain binding to intact cells indicated binding sites with multiple affinities. Only the rubidium transport sites which exhibited a high affinity for ouabain were stimulated by insulin. Stimulation required insulin binding to an intact cell surface receptor, as it was reversible by trypsinization. We conclude that the uptake of 86Rb+ by the (Na+,K+)-ATPase is an insulin-sensitive membrane transport process in the fat cell.  相似文献
