Effects of neocuproine (2,9-dimethyl-l,10-phenanthroline) andcuprizone (biscyclohexanone oxalyldihydrazone), as copper-chelatingagents on the development of amine oxidase and the growth ofpea plants were studied. Amine oxidase development in the apicalpart was inhibited by administration of neocuproine, and thiseffect was markedly reversed by the addition of copper disodiumethylenediaminetetraacetate(EDTA-Na2-Cu). In this case, theamine oxidase activity was stimulated. Pea plant growth wasinhibited by this chelator but not in the presence of EDTA-Na2-Cu.On the other hand, the development of enzyme activity and growthwere much less sensitive to cuprizone.

Ascorbate oxidase expression in pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.) tissues was studied. Specific ascorbate oxidase activities in pumpkin leaf and stem tissues were about 2 and 1.5 times that in the fruit tissues, respectively. In seeds, little ascorbate oxidase activity was detected. Northern blot analyses showed an abundant ascorbate oxidase mRNA in leaf and stem tissues. Fruit tissues had lower levels of ascorbate oxidase mRNA than leaf and stem tissues. Ascorbate oxidase mRNA was not detected in seeds. Specific ascorbate oxidase activity gradually increased during early seedling growth of pumpkin seeds. The increase was accompanied by an increase in ascorbate oxidase mRNA. When ascorbate oxidase activity in developing pumpkin fruits was investigated, the activities in immature fruits that are rapidly growing at 0, 2, 4, and 7 d after anthesis were much higher than those in mature fruits at 14 and 30 d after anthesis. The specific activity and mRNA of ascorbate oxidase markedly increased after inoculation of pumpkin fruit tissues into Murashige and Skoog's culture medium in the presence of an auxin such as 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) but not in the absence of 2,4-D. In the presence of 10 mg/L of 2,4-D, ascorbate oxidase mRNA was the most abundant. Thus, ascorbate oxidase is induced by 2,4-D. These results indicate that ascorbate oxidase is involved in cell growth. In pumpkin callus, ascorbate oxidase activity could be markedly increased by adding copper. Furthermore, immunological blotting showed that the amount of ascorbate oxidase protein was also increased by adding copper. However, northern blot analyses showed that ascorbate oxidase mRNA was not increased by adding copper. We suggest that copper may control ascorbate oxidase expression at translation or at a site after translation. 相似文献

Lysyl oxidase binds transforming growth factor-beta and regulates its signaling via amine oxidase activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Lysyl oxidase (LOX), an amine oxidase critical for the initiation of collagen and elastin cross-linking, has recently been shown to regulate cellular activities possibly by modulating the functions of growth factors. In this study, we investigated the interaction between LOX and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), a potent growth factor abundant in bone, the effect of LOX on TGF-beta1 signaling, and its potential mechanism. The specific binding between mature LOX and mature TGF-beta1 was demonstrated by immunoprecipitation and glutathione S-transferase pulldown assay in vitro. Both proteins were colocalized in the extracellular matrix in an osteoblastic cell culture system, and the binding complex was identified in the mineral-associated fraction of bone matrix. Furthermore, LOX suppressed TGF-beta1-induced Smad3 phosphorylation likely through its amine oxidase activity. The data indicate that LOX binds to mature TGF-beta1 and enzymatically regulates its signaling in bone and thus may play an important role in bone maintenance and remodeling. 相似文献

Effects of cadmium and copper on peroxidase, NADH oxidase and IAA oxidase activities in cell wall, soluble and microsomal membrane fractions of pea roots 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Twelve-day-old seedlings of pea (Pisum sativum L.) that were treated for 4 days by 20 and 100 micromol/l Cd(NO3)2 or CuSO4 showed a growth reduction in all organs. From root protein extracts, the activities of guaiacol peroxidase (GPX; EC 1.11.1.7), ascorbate peroxidase (APX; EC 1.11.1.11), coniferyl alcohol peroxidase (CAPX), NADH oxidase, and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) oxidase were measured in covalently--and ionically--[symbol: see text] bound cell wall, soluble, and microsomal membrane fractions. With the exception of 20 micromol/l Cu, metal treatments enhanced GPX activity in all fractions. Only IAA oxidase activity was metal-elevated in the covalently bound cell wall fraction, while the ionic one showed Cd stimulation for all assayed enzymic activities. These effects were not entirely observed in Cu-treated plants, since APX and IAA oxidase activities were only enhanced in this fraction. However, soluble extract showed stimulation of APX activity, while in the microsomal fraction metal exposure also increased the activities of CAPX and NADH oxidase. Differential responses of root cell fractions to the presence of cadmium and copper ions are discussed in regard to the contribution of their enzymic capacities in antioxidant, lignification, and auxin degradation pathways. Comparisons between metals and dose effects are also underlined. 相似文献

Cell-free extracts of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv. National Pickling) seedlings were found to have amine oxidase activity when assayed with tryptamine as a substrate. Studies of the effect of lowered pH on the extract indicated that this activity was heterogeneous, and three amine oxidases could be separated by ion exchange chromatography. The partially purified enzymes were tested for their activities with several substrates and for their sensitivities to various amine oxidase inhibitors. One of the enzymes may be a monoamine oxidase, although it is inhibited by some diamine oxidase inhibitors. The other two enzymes have properties more characteristic of the diamine oxidases. The possible relationship of the amine oxidases to indoleacetic acid biosynthesis in cucumber seedlings is discussed. 相似文献

The ability of the gut to inactivate various amines by oxidative deamination was tested with a 130-fold purified amine oxidase preparation from dog small intestine. Of 34 amines tested, putrescine, benzylamine, cadaverine, and serotonin were the most favourable substrates. Histamine was inactivated rapidly by this enzyme preparation, too. Histamine derivatives methylated at the imidazole nucleus were also deaminated, whereas Nalpha-methylhistamine was only a poor substrate and Nalpha, Nalpha-dimethylhistamine was not a substrate at all. Using a second procedure for the purification of amine oxidases from gut, the separation of a soluble monoamine oxidase from diamine oxidase was achieved by gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. The diamine oxidase deaminated putrescine (Km = 1.3 x 10(-4)M) and histamine (Km = 6.6 x 10(-5)M), but not serotonin, and was inhibited by aminoguanidine, but not by pargyline. The soluble monoamine oxidase inactivated serotonin (Km = 4.5 x 10(-4)M), but not histamine and putrescine and was inhibited by pargyline, but not by aminoguanidine. It was concluded that in dog small intestine (as well as in rabbit small intestine) only diamine oxidase was capable of inactivating histamine by oxidative deamination. 相似文献

Oxidative damage to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was induced by hydroxyl radical (HO.) generating systems of xanthine oxidase (XO) + EDTA-Fe3+ and ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+. Formation of bityrosine and loss of tryptophan were observed in the ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+ system and carbonyl formation was induced by both systems. Mannitol and ethanol very strongly inhibited the carbonyl and/or bityrosine formation, indicating that the oxidative damage to BSA was due to HO(.). The sulfhydryl (SH) groups of BSA were very sensitive to the XO + EDTA-Fe3+ but not to the ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+ system. Catalase but not hydroxyl radical scavengers or superoxide dismutase strongly inhibited the loss of SH groups, indicating that H2O2 is involved in their oxidation. Fragmentation of BSA was observed during exposure to the XO + EDTA-Fe3+ and ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+ systems and the products presented a broad band on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Little formation of amine groups was observed in these systems, indicating that little peptide bond cleavage occurred. BSA exposed to the ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+ system was more readily degraded by trypsin than that exposed to the XO + EDTA-Fe3+ system. Elastase degraded BSA exposed to the ascorbate + EDTA-Fe3+ system but not to the XO + EDTA-Fe3+ system. 相似文献

The activity of indoleacetic acid oxidase increased 10-fold during 40 days of cold treatment of winter wheat seedlings. Puromycin and 6-methyl purine inhibited indoleacetic acid oxidase development in the cold. Addition of gibberellic acid stimulated indoleacetic acid oxidase development during germination at room temperature and during cold treatment. Amo-1618 inhibited indoleacetic acid oxidase development before and during cold treatment. Indoleacetic acid treatment increased indoleacetic acid oxidase activity during germination at room temperature while no significant effect on activity was observed during cold treatment. 相似文献

Two monoamine oxidase inhibitors of the hydrazine-type, safrazineand nialamide, inhibited growth in seedlings of rice and pea.We demonstrated histochemically that monoamine oxidase is locatedchiefly in sieve tubes and in the epidermis of pea seedling.Activity of this enzyme was high in the apical part of the epicotyl,decreasing toward the base. Inhibition of pea monoamine oxidaseby safrazine and nialamide was observed histochemically andwith an extract from the epicotyl. This supports the hypothesisthat indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is formed from tryptamine byamine oxidase and that inhibition of this enzyme causes loweringof the auxin level, resulting in growth inhibition. Inhibitionof growth in rice seedlings by safrazine was reversed by theaddition of IAA to the culture medium. (Received May 6, 1970; ) 相似文献

Involvement of plasma-membrane NADPH oxidase in abscisic acid- and water stress-induced antioxidant defense in leaves of maize seedlings 总被引:32,自引:0,他引:32
The roles of the plasma-membrane (PM) NADPH oxidase in abscisic acid (ABA)- and water stress-induced antioxidant defense were investigated in leaves of maize ( Zea mays L.) seedlings. Treatment by exogenous ABA (100 micro M ABA) or osmotic stress (-0.7 MPa induced by polyethylene glycol) significantly increased the activity of the PM NADPH oxidase, the production of leaf O(2)(-), the activities of several antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase), and the contents of antioxidant metabolites (ascorbate and reduced glutathione). Pretreatment with three different inhibitors of NADPH oxidase (diphenylene iodonium, imidazole and pyridine) or an inhibitor of ABA biosynthesis (tungstate) reduced the increase in the activity of the PM NADPH oxidase and the production of leaf O(2)(-), and the capacity of antioxidant defense systems mediated by ABA. The inhibitory effects above caused by tungstate were reversed by exogenous ABA. These data indicate that NADPH oxidase is involved in the ABA-induced production of active oxygen species (AOS), and our results depict a minimal chain of events initiated by water stress-induced ABA accumulation, which then triggers the production of AOS by membrane-bound NADPH oxidase, resulting in the induction of antioxidant defense systems against oxidative damage in plants. 相似文献

Germination of soybean seeds is accompanied by a rapid increasein amine oxidase activity in the root and hypocotyl but notin the cotyledons. The partially purified enzyme from cotyledonlessspecimens readily oxidizes cadaverine, putrescine, spermidineand agmatine, while spermine, L-lysine and D-lysine are oxidizedmore slowly. Inhibition experiments showed that carbonyl andheavy metal chela ting reagents are effective inhibitors ofsoybean amine oxidase. The diethyldithiocarbamate-treated enzymewas reactivated specifically by cupric copper. These resultssuggest that the amine oxidase in soybean seedlings should beregarded as a diamine oxidase (E.C. 1.4.3.6

A relationship between the activity of NADH oxidase of the plasma membrane and the IAA-induced elongation growth of hypocotyl segments in etiolated soybean (Glycine max Merr.) seedlings was investigated. The plasma membrane NADH oxidase activity increased in parallel to IAA effect on elongation growth in hypocotyl segments. Actually, NADH oxidase activity was stimulated 3-fold by 1 u,M IAA, and the elongation rate of segments was stimulated 10-fold by 10 iM IAA. The short-term elongation growth kinetics, however, showed that the IAA-induced elongation of hypocotyl segments was completely inhibited by plasma membrane redox inhibitors such as actinomycin D and adriamycin, at 80 μM and 50 μM respectively. In addition, 1 mM actinomycin D inhibited the IAA-stimulated NADH oxidase activity by about 80%. However, adriamycin had no effect on NADH oxidase activity of plasma membrane vesicles. Based on these results, the plasma membrane redox reactions seemed to be involved in IAA-induced elongation growth of hypocotyls, and the redox component responding to IAA was suggested to be NADH oxidase. 相似文献

Mandibular development was examined in embryonic chicks following administration of 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FUDR, 0.001-1.0 microgram/egg), an inhibitor of both DNA synthesis and of cell division. FUDR was injected in ovo at one of three developmental stages corresponding to 1) the migration of mandible-destined, midbrain-level neural crest cells (Hamburger and Hamilton [H.H.] stage 10); 2) midway through the epithelial-mesenchymal interaction required to initiate mandibular osteogenesis (H.H. stage 22), which is also after the epithelial-neural crest cell interaction required for the initiation of chondrogenesis in Meckel's cartilage; and 3) when prechondroblasts of Meckel's cartilage are beginning to differentiate (H.H. stage 25). Micromelia was induced following the administration of FUDR at either H.H. stages 22 or 25 but not when FUDR was given at H.H. stage 10. Although the micromelic mandibles were shorter than normal, Meckel's cartilage and the mandibular membrane bones both differentiated and grew along the full proximodistal length of the shortened mandibles. In contrast to the situation previously described by Ferguson for alligator embryos exposed to FUDR, the migration of neural crest cells in the embryonic chick was not inhibited by FUDR. In contrast to the situation previously described for rat embryos exposed to FUDR, differentiation of Meckel's cartilage was not inhibited in embryonic chicks exposed to FUDR. Differentiation of the membrane bones was also normal following either in ovo administration of FUDR or when mandibular processes were maintained in FUDR in vitro. Therefore, FUDR does not produce micromelia in the embryonic chick by interfering with the epithelial-mesenchymal/neural crest cell interactions, which are prerequisites or differentiation of cartilage or bone, nor by inhibiting the differentiation of chondrogenic or osteogenic mesenchymal cells after completion of these tissue interactions. Neither did the growth-inhibiting action of FUDR result from an inhibition of growth of Meckel's cartilage during the several days following initial chondrogenic differentiation. Rather, subsequent growth of the entire mandibular process was delayed. This mechanism of action differs from that in the alligator embryo, in which FUDR inhibits mandibular growth by removing mandible-destined, migrating neural crest cells, and in the rat, in which FUDR inhibits the differentiation of Meckel's cartilage but catch-up growth restores growth of the mandible to normal. 相似文献

The oxidase cho of Methylobacillus flagellatus KT was purified to homogeneity by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis, and the kinetic properties and substrate specificity of the enzyme were studied. Ascorbate and ascorbate/N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) were oxidized by cbo with a pH optimum of 8.3. When TMPD served as electron donor for the oxidase cho, the optimal pH (7.0 to 7.6) was determined from the difference between respiration rates in the presence of ascorbate/TMPD and of only ascorbate. The kinetic constants, determined at pH 7.0, were as follows: oxidation by the enzyme of reduced TMPD at pH 7.0 was characterized by KM = 0.86 mM and Vmax = 1.1 mumol O2/(min mg protein), and oxidation of reduced cytochrome c from horse heart was characterized by KM = 0.09 mM and Vmax = 0.9 mumol O2/(min mg protein) Cyanide inhibited ascorbate/TMPD oxidase activity (Ki = 4.5-5.0 microM). The soluble cytochrome cH (12 kDa) partially purified from M. flagellatus KT was found to serve as the natural electron donor for the oxidase cbo. 相似文献

Cu-Amine oxidases (amine oxygen oxidoreductase deaminating, copper containing E.C. 1.4.3.6.) are found in all forms of life (1). They catalyze the following general reaction: R-CH2-NH2 + O2 + H2O----R-CHO + NH3 + H2O2. Cu-amine oxidases (Cu-AOs) have been extracted from different leguminosae: Pisum sativum (2-3), Lathyrus sativus (4), Lens esculenta (5), Vicia faba (6), Cicer arietinum (7), Glycine max (8) but not from Phaseolus vulgaris. Palavan and Galston (9), in a study of polyamine biosynthesis during developmental stages of Phaseolus vulgaris, did not detect diamine or polyamine oxidase activity in Phaseolus. The present paper describes the purification of Phaseolus vulgaris seedlings amine oxidase (PhSAO) and also compares the properties of this enzyme to the Lathyrus cicera enzyme (LcSAO), obtained with the same method of purification. 相似文献

The Sendai virus-induced interferon (IF) production by partially purified human leucocyte suspensions of normal donors and of leukaemic patients have been investigated in vitro. (i) An increased production was observed with leucocytes taken from patients suffering from chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML) during exacerbation, but the production was approximately normal with cells taken during remission. (ii) IF production was not influenced by large doses of cytostatics (DBM, 5-FU, FUDR, 5-HU, 6-MP, cyclophosphamide) irrespective of whether normal or CML leucocytes were used. (iii) In contrast, production was inhibited in both systems by inhibitors of RNA or protein synthesis (actinomycin D, puromycin, cycloheximide). (iv) CML leucocytes produced IF for a prolonged period of time as compared to normal leucocytes. (v) Leucocytes from children with acute blastic leukaemia and those from adults with chronic lymphoid or acute paramyeloblastic leukaemia produce, in contrast to normal leukocytes, approximately as much IF in the absence as in the presence of serum. It is concluded that the Sendai virus-induced IF synthesis in CML leucocytes requires de novo protein synthesis. 相似文献

The germination of pea seed was accompanied by a rapid increase of amine oxidase (E.C. 1.4.3.6.) in the cotyledon and over half the increase was ascribable to the presence of axial tissue. The presence of actinomycin D, 6-methylpurine and cycloheximide in the early period of soaking inhibited markedly the increase in amine oxidase activity. However, actinomycin D and cycloheximide had little effect on the enzyme development when added after one day and 2 days of germination respectively. The amine oxidase development was also inhibited by dl -p-fluorophenylalanine, 5-methyltryptophan, chloramphenicol and phenylthiourea. 相似文献

Ascorbate 2-sulfate inhibits dopamine beta-hydroxylase reaction, but not ascorbate oxidase reaction.
Bovine adrenal dopamine beta-hydroxylase [EC 1.14.17.1] was considerably inhibited by ascorbate 2-sulfate. The inhibition was competitive with regard to ascorbate. The Ki value was 3.44 mM. The possibility that ascorbate 2-sulfate may play a regulatory role in the biosynthesis of norepinephrine is suggested. Another copper-containing oxidase, squash ascorbate oxidase [EC 1.10.3.3], was not inhibited by the same compound at a concentration of 150 mM. 相似文献
