Proteins of whole mitochondria from mouse liver and brain and proteins of liver mitochondrial fractions (plasma and rough membrane fraction) were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis. Protein patterns of two inbred strains of mouse, C57BL/6J and DBA/2J, and of F1 mice of these two strains were studied. The protein patterns obtained from the different mitochondrial materials were analyzed with regard to their protein composition and the genetic variability of proteins (qualitative and quantitative protein variants). Included in this analysis are data previously obtained from the cytosols and plasma membranes of the same organs and mouse strains. The results showed the following. (1) Mitochondria and organelle-free cell components (cytosol and plasma membranes) have only a few percent of their proteins in common, while two organs, liver and brain, reveal up to approximately 50% organ-nonspecific proteins. The frequency of proteins common to solubilized and structure-bound proteins ranges below 20%. (2) Genetic variability in protein amount occurs much more frequently than genetic variability in protein structure. Liver proteins reveal more genetic variants than brain proteins. Proteins solubilized in the cell show more genetic variation than structure-bound proteins. Furthermore, the results show that with regard to the composition and the genetic variability of proteins, liver and brain differ more in their mitochondria than in their cytosol and plasma membranes.This work was supported by grants from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft awarded to Sonderforschungsbereich 29. 相似文献

The genetic variability of membrane proteins (structure-bound proteins) and cytosol proteins (water-soluble proteins) was investigated in two inbred strains of the mouse, C57BL/6J and DBA/2J. Membrane proteins and cytosol were isolated from the brain and liver of the mouse. The proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis. A high number of genetic variant proteins (brain, 30; liver, 72) was found in the cytosol. Most of these variants represented changes in the amount of proteins. Electrophoretic mobility changes occurred only in about 1% (brain, 6; liver, 9) of all protein spots of a two-dimensional pattern. In contrast to the cytosol proteins, no genetic variation was detected among the membrane proteins, not even for the quantitative characteristics of the protein spots. The results obtained for the two classes of proteins suggest that the degree of variability in the amount of proteins is related to the degree of variability in the structure of proteins. 相似文献

Summary The soluble proteins of four organs (liver, kidney, brain and muscle) of mice from four inbred strains (C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, AKR/J and BALB/cHan) and offspring from cross-breedings therefrom are investigated for genetic variants. The female mice from each strain are divided into different groups according to age (12–14 and 24–26 weeks) and generation (P and F1). The proteins are separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) using two different techniques (2D GE and 2D SDS-GE), developed in our laboratory. 相似文献

In this study, we report different protocols used to obtain highly enriched and well-characterized protein fractions that could be used to determine the subcellular localization of proteins. Different protein fractions (total, cytosolic, total membrane, sarcolemmal, and nuclear) were isolated from mouse heart by a combination of either polytron homogenization or liquid nitrogen pulverization followed by density gradient centrifugation. Triton X-100 was used in specific fractions to help in the solubilization of proteins obtained with fractionation protocols. Following the isolation, enzymatic assays and Western blot analysis were used to evaluate the enrichment and/or cross-contamination of these protein fractions. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, Na+/K+-ATPase, mitochondrial Ca2+-ATPase, sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, glucose-regulated protein, and nucleoporin P62 were used as specific markers for the cytosol, sarcolemma, mitochondria, sarco-endoplasmic reticulum, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus, respectively. The results show that we obtained enriched protein fractions with little to no cross-contamination. These purification protocols allow us to obtain different protein fractions that could be used in a wide variety of studies. 相似文献

Comparisons of the sensitivities of one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) electrophoreses to detect genetic variability have generally shown that the 2D approach appears to be two- to five-fold less sensitive than conventional 1D approaches. Concerns about the validity of this conclusion have arisen because such comparisons have involved mainly enzymic proteins in 1D approaches versus a complex mixture of soluble proteins in most 2D analyses. Comparisons involving the absolute number of variants detected, using 1D and 2D sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), denatured mouse blood proteins isolated from C3HeB/FeJ and C57B1/6J inbred strains of mice, and highly sensitive silver staining, indicate that the latter uncovers at least as much variability as the former. Although the relative percentage of variable bands (1D SDS-PAGE) was greater than the relative percentage of variable spots (2D SDS-PAGE) when proteins of intact erythrocytes were surveyed, both techniques uncovered approximately equal percentages of variable proteins when the mouse erythrocyte proteins were partitioned into membrane and lysate components. Therefore, the simpler 1D SDS-PAGE was found to be as effective as 2D SDS-PAGE in detecting protein variability. Since 1D SDS-PAGE separates proteins primarily on the basis of molecular weight and to a lesser degree on other primary protein sequence alterations, much of the variability observed by 2D SDS-PAGE may be due to these same features and unit charge differences may not play a significant role in detecting variability in the proteins studied. This differs from enzymic proteins, where such charge differences appear to be responsible for much of the variability. This study also indicated that decreasing the number of proteins in samples (membranes and lysates vs whole erythrocytes) increased the ability of both of these techniques to resolve differences. Mating studies indicated that most of the differences detected with both techniques were inherited and were not artifacts. 相似文献

Summary Proteins were extracted from liver, brain, and skin of 6-day-old mice with trisomy (Ts) 19 and fractionated into solubilized cell proteins and structure-bound cell proteins. The proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis, and protein patterns were compared in the combinations Ts/normal and normal/normal. Analysis of the protein patterns revealed protein spots (variants) with densities higher (h-type) or lower (l-type) in trisomies than in normal mice. Some of these variants were found in all Ts individuals investigated for a particular protein class. These variants, termed regular Ts-variants, constituted 0.8%–1.6% of the total number of spots. The proteins of the regular Ts variants were in most cases organ-nonspecific. However, in almost all cases a given quantitative variation was expressed in only one of the three organs investigated. To explain our results, we have presented models for the control of protein levels on the basis of gene regulation. New aspects in the conception of studies on trisomies in man could be gained. 相似文献

This report describes the substrate and phosphoryl donor specificities of solubilized erythrocyte membrane cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-independent protein kinases toward human and rabbit erythrocyte membrane proteins. Three types of substrate preparations have been utilized: heat-inactivated ghosts, isolated spectrin, and 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride (DMMA)-extracted membranes. A 30 000-dalton protein kinase, extracted from either human or rabbit erythrocyte membranes, catalyzes the phosphorylation of heat-inactivated membranes in the presence of ATP. The resulting phosphorylation profile is analogous to that of the autophosphorylation of membranes with ATP (in the absence of cAMP). These kinases also phosphorylate band 2 of isolated spectrin and band 3, but not glycophorin, in the DMMA-extracted ghosts. The ability of the 30 000-dalton kinases to use GTP as a phosphoryl donor appears to be related to the substrate or some other membrane factor. A second kinase, which is 100 000 daltons and derived from rabbit erythrocyte membranes, uses ATP or GTP to phosphorylate membrane proteins 2, 2.1, 2.9-3 in heat-inactivated ghosts, band 2 in isolated spectrin, glycophorin, and to a lesser extent, band 3 in the DMMA-extracted ghosts. 相似文献

Zona pellucida (ZP)-induced acrosomal exocytosis in mammalian spermatozoa is thought to be mediated by signal transduction cascades similar to those found in hormonally responsive cells. In order to characterize this process further, we have examined the role of GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) in coupling sperm-ZP interaction to intracellular second messenger systems in mouse sperm. An in vitro signal transduction assay was developed to assess ZP-G protein dynamics in sperm membrane preparations. Guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S), a poorly hydrolyzable analogue of GTP, bound to these membranes in a specific and concentration-dependent fashion which reached saturation at 100 nM. Incubation of the membrane preparations with heat-solubilized ZP resulted in a significant increase in specific GTP gamma S binding in a concentration-dependent fashion with a half-maximal response at 1.25-2 ZP/microliters. Solubilized ZP also caused a significant increase in high affinity GTPase activity in the membranes over basal levels. Mastoparan increased specific GTP gamma S binding to the sperm membranes and stimulated high-affinity membrane GTPase activity to levels consistently greater than that seen with the solubilized ZP. Mastoparan, together with solubilized ZP, gave the same level of stimulation of GTP gamma S binding as mastoparan alone. Pertussis toxin completely inhibited the ZP-stimulated GTP gamma S binding, but only decreased mastoparan-stimulated GTP gamma S binding by 70-80%. Purified ZP3, the ZP component which possesses quantitatively all of the acrosomal exocytosis-inducing activity of the intact ZP, stimulated GTP gamma S binding to the same level as solubilized ZP; ZP1 and ZP2 did not stimulate GTP gamma S binding. ZP from fertilized eggs (ZPf), which does not possess acrosome reaction-inducing activity, also failed to stimulate GTP gamma S binding to sperm membranes. These data demonstrate the direct activation of a Gi protein in sperm membrane preparations in response to the ZP glycoprotein, ZP3, that induces the acrosome reaction. These data imply that Gi protein activation is an early event in the signal sequence leading to sperm acrosomal exocytosis. 相似文献

The nuclear fraction of rat hepatoma-derived HTC cells contained approximately 8% of the total cellular pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. HTC cells were able to metabolize [3H]pyridoxine to coenzymatically active pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate. As HTC cells did not have any demonstrable pyridoxine-5'-phosphate oxidase activity, the conversion of pyridoxine to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate must have taken place by a nonconventional route. The ratio of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate to pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate in the nonnuclear fraction of HTC cells was approximately 1:1, whereas in the nuclear fraction it was approximately 17:1, indicating that there was selective acquisition of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate by the nucleus. With the aid of a monoclonal antibody specific for the 5'-phosphopyridoxyl group, it was shown that there was one major pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-binding protein in a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE)-resolved nucleoplasmic extract of HTC cells. This finding was confirmed by radioautography of an SDS-PAGE-resolved nucleoplasmic extract obtained from cells grown in a medium containing [3H]pyridoxine. Isoelectric focusing followed by SDS-PAGE also indicated the presence of one major pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-binding protein in the nucleoplasmic extract of HTC cells having a relatively high isoelectric point (approximately 7). Data were obtained indicating that the protein might exist in a higher molecular weight form, probably a dimer. Currently, these findings constitute virtually all of the available information on vitamin B6 and the cell nucleus. 相似文献

A DNA-binding protein specific for the early replicated region of the chromosome obtained from Escherichia coli membrane fractions 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The binding sites of calf thymus RNA polymerase (B) II, wheat germ RNA polymerase B and of the Escherichia coli RNA polymerase were mapped on the simian virus 40 genome by observation of enzyme-linear DNA complexes by electron microscopy. Three to four major sites and several minor sites are observed for each enzyme; common binding sites for the three enzymes are found in positions 0.17, 0.53 and 0.90 of the viral physical map. Initiation complexes with these enzymes can be stabilized with specific ribodinucleotides and a single ribonucleoside triphosphate. Whereas ApA and ATP greatly enhances the binding of the E. coli enzyme at position 0.17, they stabilize the binding of the eukaryotic enzyme at many sites, some of them located in close proximity of the origin of replication. 相似文献

Mitochondria fulfill many tissue‐specific functions in cell metabolism. We set out to identify differences in the protein composition of mitochondria from five tissues frequently affected by mitochondrial disorders. The proteome of highly purified mitochondria from five mouse organs was separated by high‐resolution 2DE. Tissue‐specific spots were identified through nano‐LC/ESI‐MS/MS and quantified by densitometry in ten biological replicates. We identified 87 consistently deviating spots representing 48 proteins. The percentage of variant spots ranged between 4.2% and 6.0%; 21 proteins having tissue‐specific isospots. Consistent tissue‐specific processing/regulation was seen for carbamoyl‐phosphate‐synthase, aldehyde‐dehydrogenase 2, ATP‐synthase α‐chain, and isocitrate‐dehydrogenase α‐subunit. Thirty tissue‐specific proteins were associated with mitochondrial disorders in humans. We further identified alcohol‐dehydrogenase, catalase, quinone‐oxidoreductase, cyclophilin‐A, and Upf0317, a potential biotin‐carboxyl‐carrier protein, which had not been annotated as “mitochondrial” in Gene Ontology or MitoCarta databases. Their targeting to the mitochondria was verified by transfection of full‐length GFP‐tagged plasmids. Given the high evolutionary conservation of mitochondrial metabolic pathways, these data further annotate the mitochondrial proteome and advance our understanding of the pathophysiology and tissue‐specificity of symptoms seen in patients with mitochondrial disorders. The generation of 2D electrophoretic maps of the mitochondrial proteome using tissue specimens in the milligram range facilitates this technique for clinical applications and biomarker research. 相似文献

Purification of immunotoxins containing ricin A-chain and abrin A-chain using Blue Sepharose CL-6B 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
We describe a method for separating antibody from immunotoxins by affinity chromatography on Cibacron blue F3GA coupled to Sepharose (Blue Sepharose). The antibody did not bind to the gel. The immunotoxins were bound by their ricin A-chain or abrin A-chain moiety and could be recovered in high yield and purity using mild elution conditions. The method is suitable for the large-scale purification of immunotoxins. 相似文献

A specific binding site for somatotropin was solubilized by 1% (v/v) Triton X-100 from a crude particulate membrane fraction of pregnant rabbit liver, partially purified and characterized. The solubilized binding site retained many of the characteristics observed in the original particulate fraction, indicating that extraction of the binding site with Triton X-100 does not cause any major changes in its properties. The binding of human 125I-labelled-somatotropin to the solubilized binding site is a saturable and reversible process, depending on temperature, incubation time, pH and ionic environment. Analysis of the kinetic data revealed a finite number of binding sites with an affinity constant of 0.32 x 10(10)M-1. The binding activity for human 125I-labelled-somatotropin was adsorbed to a concanavalin-A-Sepharose column and was dissociated from the column with alpha-methyl-D-glucoside, suggesting that the binding protein may be a glycoprotein. Using affinity chromatography on concanavalin-A-Sepharose, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration on Sepharose 6B, the binding protein was purified 1000-4000-fold from the original liver homogenate. When the partially purified preparation was chromatographed on Sepharose 6B, the binding protein eluted as a molecule with an apparent molecular weight of 200000, with a Stokes' radius of 4.9 nm. Sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation of the preparation showed that the sedimentation coefficient of the binding protein was 7.2S. Isoelectric focusing experiments revealed that a major part of the protein has an acidic pI (4.2-4.5). Exposure of the protein to trypsin decreased the binding activity for human 125I-labelled-somatotropin or bovine 125I-labelled-somatotropin, whereas ribonuclease, deoxyribonuclease, phospholipase C or neuraminidase had little or no effect. 相似文献
