Hamster liver post-nuclear membranes catalyze the transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to endogenous dolichyl phosphate and to a second major endogenous acidic lipid. This mannolipid was believed to be synthesized from endogenous retinyl phosphate and was tentatively identified as retinyl phosphate mannose (Ret-P-Man) (De Luca, L. M., Brugh, M. R. Silverman-Jones, C. S. and Shidoji, Y. (1982) Biochem. J. 208, 159-170). To characterize this endogenous mannolipid in more detail, we isolated and purified the mannolipid from incubations containing hamster liver membranes and GDP-[14C]mannose and compared its properties to those of authentic Ret-P-Man. We found that the endogenous mannolipid was separable from authentic Ret-P-Man on a Mono Q anion exchange column, did not exhibit the absorbance spectrum characteristic of a retinol moiety, and was stable to mild acid under conditions which cleave authentic Ret-P-Man. The endogenous mannolipid was sensitive to mild base hydrolysis and mannose was released from the mannolipid by snake venom phosphodiesterase digestion. These properties were consistent with the endogenous acceptor being phosphatidic acid. Addition of exogenous phosphatidic acid, but not phospholipids with a head group blocking the phosphate moiety, to incubations containing hamster liver membranes and GDP-[14C]mannose resulted in the synthesis of a mannolipid with chromatographic and physical properties identical to the endogenous mannolipid. A double-labeled mannolipid was synthesized in incubations containing hamster liver membranes, GDP-[14C]mannose, and [3H]phosphatidic acid. Mannosyl transfer to exogenous phosphatidic acid was saturable with increasing concentrations of phosphatidic acid and GDP-mannose and specific for glycosyl transfer from GDP-mannose. Class E Thy-1-negative mutant mouse lymphoma cell membranes, which are defective in dolichyl phosphate mannose synthesis, also fail to transfer mannose from GDP-mannose to exogenous phosphatidic acid or retinyl phosphate. Amphomycin, an inhibitor of dolichyl phosphate mannose synthesis, blocked mannosyl transfer to the endogenous lipid, and to exogenous retinyl phosphate and phosphatidic acid. We conclude that the same mannosyltransferase responsible for dolichyl phosphate mannose synthesis can also utilize in vitro exogenous retinyl phosphate and phosphatidic acid as well as endogenous phosphatidic acid as mannosyl acceptors.  相似文献

In the absence of detergent, the transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to rat liver microsomal vesicles was highly stimulated by exogenous retinyl phosphate in incubations containing bovine serum albumin, as measured in a filter binding assay. Under these conditions 65% of mannose 6-phosphatase activity was latent. The transfer process was linear with time up to 5min and with protein concentration up to 1.5mg/0.2ml. It was also temperature-dependent. The microsomal uptake of mannose was highly dependent on retinyl phosphate and was saturable against increasing amounts of retinyl phosphate, a concentration of 15mum giving half-maximal transfer. The uptake system was also saturated by increasing concentrations of GDP-mannose, with an apparent K(m) of 18mum. Neither exogenous dolichyl phosphate nor non-phosphorylated retinoids were active in this process in the absence of detergent. Phosphatidylethanolamine and synthetic dipalmitoylglycerophosphocholine were also without activity. Several water-soluble organic phosphates (1.5mm), such as phenyl phosphate, 4-nitrophenyl phosphate, phosphoserine and phosphocholine, did not inhibit the retinyl phosphate-stimulated mannosyl transfer to microsomes. This mannosyl-transfer activity was highest in microsomes and marginal in mitochondria, plasma and nuclear membranes. It was specific for mannose residues from GDP-mannose and did not occur with UDP-[(3)H]galactose, UDP- or GDP-[(14)C]glucose, UDP-N-acetyl[(14)C]-glucosamine and UDP-N-acetyl[(14)C]galactosamine, all at 24mum. The mannosyl transfer was inhibited 85% by 3mm-EDTA and 93% by 0.8mm-amphomycin. At 2min, 90% of the radioactivity retained on the filter could be extracted with chloroform/methanol (2:1, v/v) and mainly co-migrated with retinyl phosphate mannose by t.l.c. This mannolipid was shown to bind to immunoglobulin G fraction of anti-(vitamin A) serum and was displaced by a large excess of retinoic acid, thus confirming the presence of the beta-ionone ring in the mannolipid. The amount of retinyl phosphate mannose formed in the bovine serum albumin/retinyl phosphate incubation is about 100-fold greater than in incubations containing 0.5% Triton X-100. In contrast with the lack of activity as a mannosyl acceptor for exogenous dolichyl phosphate in the present assay system, endogenous dolichyl phosphate clearly functions as an acceptor. Moreover in the same incubations a mannolipid with chromatographic properties of retinyl phosphate mannose was also synthesized from endogenous lipid acceptor. The biosynthesis of this mannolipid (retinyl phosphate mannose) was optimal at MnCl(2) concentrations between 5 and 10mm and could not be detected below 0.6mm-MnCl(2), when synthesis of dolichyl phosphate mannose from endogenous dolichyl phosphate was about 80% of optimal synthesis. Under optimal conditions (5mm-MnCl(2)) endogenous retinyl phosphate mannose represented about 20% of dolichyl phosphate mannose at 15min of incubation at 37 degrees C.  相似文献

1. The transfer of mannose from GDP-(U-14-C)mannose into endogenous acceptors of bovine adrenal medullla and rat parotid was studied. The rapidly labelled product, a glycolipid, was partially purified and characterized. 2. It was stable to mild alkaline hydrolysis but yielded (14-C)mannose on mild acid hydrolysis. It co-chromatographed with mannosyl phosphoryl dolichol in four t.l.c. systems and on DEAE-cellulose acetate. Addition of dolichol phosphate or a dolichol phosphate-enriched fraction prepared from pig liver stimulated mannolipid synthesis. 3. The formation of mammolipid appeared reversible, since addition of GDP to a system synthesizing the mannolipid caused a rapid loss of label from the mannolipid. UDP-N-acetylglucosamine did not inhibit mannolipid synthesis except at high concentrations (2 mM), even though in the absence of GDP-mannose, N-acetylglucosamine was incorporated into a lipid having the properties of a glycosylated polyprenyl phosphate. 4. Mannose from GDP-mannose was also incorporated into two other acceptors, (2y being insoluble in chloroform-methanol (2:1, v/v) but soluble in choloroform-methanol-water (10:10:3, by vol.) and (ii) protein. These are formed much more slowly than the mannolipid. 5. Exogenous mannolipid served as a mannose donor for acceptors (i) and (ii), and it is suggested that transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to mannosylated protein occurs via two intermediates, the mannolipid and acceptor (i).  相似文献

Particulate membrane preparations from Neurospora crassa incorporated mannose from GDP-[14C] mannose into endogenous lipid and particulate protein acceptors. Synthesis of the mannosyl lipid is reversible in the presence of GDP. Chemical and chromatographic characterization of the mannosyl lipid suggest that it is a mannosylphosphorylpolyisoprenol. The other endogenous acceptor was precipitated by trichloracetic acid. Gel filtration and electrophoresis studies before and after treatment with proteolytic enzymes indicate that the second acceptor is a glycoprotein(s). beta Elimination studies on the mannosyl protein formed from GDP-[14C] mannose with Mg2+ in the reaction mixture or formed from mannosyl lipid indicate thad with the peptide chain. Several lines of evidence indicate that in Neurospora crassa the mannosyl lipid is an obligatory intermediate in the in vitro mannosylation of the protein. (a) At 15 degrees C the initial formation of the mannosyl lipid is faster than the initial formation of the mannosyl protein. (b) Exogenous partially purified mannosyl lipid can function as a mannosyl donor for the synthesis of the mannosyl protein. This reaction was also dependent on a divalent metal. The rate of this reaction was optimal at a concentration of Triton X-100 which effectively inhibited the transfer of mannose from GDP-[14C] mannose to lipid and protein, indicating that GDP-mannose was not an intermediate in the transfer of mannose from lipid to protein. The mannosyl protein formed in this reaction was indistinguishable by several criteria from the mannosyl protein formed from GDP-[14C] mannose and Mg2+. (c) The effect of a chase with an excess of unlabeled GDP-mannose on the incorporation of mannose into endogenous acceptors was immediate cessation of the synthesis and subsequent turnover of the mannosyl lipid; in contrast, however, incorporation of mannose into protein continued and was proportional to the loss of mannose from the mannosyl lipid.  相似文献

GDP-mannose and UDP-mannose (each at less than 1 micrometer) markedly inhibit glucosyl transfer from UDP-glucose (1.6 micrometer( to dolichyl phosphate in liver microsomal preparations. The biphasic response suggests the presence of two glucosyl transferases only one of which is inhibited. The inhibition appears to be a property of the intact nucleotide phosphate sugars and not due to competition for a limited pool of dolichyl phosphate. UDP-galactose and UDP-xylose cause a less marked inhibition of the same enzyme. The failure of UDP-glucose to inhibit mannosyl transfer suggests that the pool of dolichol monophosphate used by mannosyl transferase is not available to the glucosyl transferase. The relationship between the degree to which an exogenous prenol phosphate acts as an acceptor of mannose and the degree to which it inhibits mannosylation of endogenous dolichyl monophosphate varies among different prenyl phosphates. Mannosyl transferase exhibits two pH optima.  相似文献

When a membrane preparation from the lactating bovine mammary gland is incubated with GDP-[14C] mannose, mannose is incorporated into a [14C] mannolipid, a [Man-14C] oligosaccharide-lipid, and metabolically stable endogenous acceptor(s). The rate of mannosyl incorporation is the fastest into [14C] mannolipid, intermediate in [Man-14C] oligosaccharide-lipid, and least into [Man-14C] endogenous acceptor(s). The [14C] mannolipid has been partially purified and characterized. Mild acid hydrolysis of this compound gives [14C] mannose, whereas alkaline hydrolysis yielded [14C] mannose phosphate as the labeled product. The t½ of hydrolysis of the mannolipid under the acidic and basic conditions are comparable to values obtained for mannosyl phosphoryl dolichol in other systems. The mannolipid is chromatographically indistinguishable from calf brain mannosyl phosphoryl polyisoprenol and chemically synthesized β-mannosyl phosphoryl dolichol. Exogenous dolichol phosphate stimulates the synthesis of mannolipid in mammary particulate preparations 8.5-fold. Synthesis of mannolipid is freely reversible; in the presence of GDP, the transfer of mannosyl moiety from endogenously labeled mannolipid to GDP-mannose is obtained. All of these results indicate that the structure of mannolipid is mannosyl phosphoryl polyisoprenol. Even though the precise chain length of the polyisoprenol portion has not been established, it is tentatively suggested to be dolichol. Partially purified [14C] mannolipid can directly serve as a mannosyl donor in the synthesis of [Man-14C] oligosaccharide-lipid and [Man-14C] endogenous acceptor(s). Pulse and chase kinetics utilizing GDP-mannose to chase the mannosyl transfer from GDP-[14C] mannose in the mammary membrane incubations caused an immediate and rapid turnover of [14C] mannose from [14C] mannolipid while the incorporation of label in [Man-14C] oligosaccharide-lipid and radioactive endogenous acceptor(s) continued for a short period before coming to a halt. Both gel filtration and electrophoresis indicate that the endogenous acceptor(s) are a mixture of 2 or more glycoproteins since incubation with proteases releases all of the radioactivity into water soluble low-molecular-weight components, perhaps glycopeptides. All of the above evidence is consistent with the following precursor-product relationship: GDP-mannose ? mannosyl phosphoryl polyisoprenol → mannosyl-oligosaccharide-lipid → mannosyl-proteins. The exact structure of the oligosaccharide-lipid and the endogenous glycoproteins is unknown.  相似文献

A crude membrane preparation of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardii was found to catalyse the incorporation of D-[14C]mannose from GDP-D-[14C]-mannose into a chloroform/methanol-soluble compound and into a trichloroacetic acid-insoluble polymer fraction. The labelled lipid revealed the chemical and chromatographic properties of a short-chain (about C55-C65) alpha-saturated polyprenyl mannosyl monophosphate. In the presence of detergent both long-chain (C85-C105) dolichol phosphate and alpha-unsaturated undecaprenyl phosphate (C55) were found to be effective as exogenous acceptors of D-mannose from GDP-D-[14C]mannose to yield their corresponding labelled polyprenyl mannosyl phosphates. Exogenous dolichyl phosphate stimulated the incorporation of mannose from GDP-D-[14C]mannose into the polymer fraction 5-7-fold, whereas the mannose moiety from undecaprenyl mannosyl phosphate was not further transferred. Authentic dolichyl phosphate [3H]mannose and partially purified mannolipid formed from GDP-[14C]mannose and exogenous dolichyl phosphate were found to function as direct mannosyl donors for the synthesis of labelled mannoproteins. These results clearly indicate the existence of dolichol-type glycolipids and their role as intermediates in transglycosylation reactions of this algal system. Both the saturation of the alpha-isoprene unit and the length of the polyprenyl chain may be regarded as evolutionary markers.  相似文献

The initial rate of dolichyl phosphate mannose biosynthesis was measured in white-matter membranes from pig brain at various ages from before birth throughout the period of most rapid brain development. Dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase activity increased from prenatal values to a maximum in 3 week-old animals, and gradually decreased to adult values after 8 weeks of age. The nature of the developmental change was investigated by enzymic and biochemical comparisons of the membrane preparations from the most active age (3 weeks) and adult controls. The specific activity of dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase in preparations from actively myelinating animals was approx. 3-fold higher than adults when mannolipid formation was assayed with saturating concentrations of GDP-[14C]mannose and utilizing only endogenous acceptor lipid. No major variations were found in the apparent Km values for GDP-mannose or exogenous dolichyl monophosphate. However, the ratio of dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase activity for myelinating animals/adult animals decreased significantly when large amounts of exogenous dolichyl monophosphate were added to the incubation mixtures. Dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase activity was also compared in white-matter membranes depleted of endogenous dolichyl monophosphate by enzymic mannosylation or treatment with butanol. When these preparations were assayed with identical amounts of exogenous dolichyl monophosphate, the dolichyl monophosphate-depleted membranes from actively myelinating animals contained only 20–30% more dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase activity. Overall, these studies strongly suggest that the developmental change in dolichyl phosphate mannose synthase activity is due primarily to the presence of a relatively lower amount of endogenous dolichyl monophosphate being accessible to the mannosyltransferase in the white-matter membranes from adult animals.  相似文献

When pig liver microsomal preparations were incubated with GDP-[14C]mannose, 10–40% of the 14C was transferred to mannolipid and 1–3% to mannoprotein. The transfer to mannolipid was readily reversible and GDP was one of the products of the reaction. It was possible to reverse the reaction by adding excess of GDP and to show the incorporation of [14C]GDP into GDP-mannose. When excess of unlabelled GDP-mannose was added to a partially completed incubation there was a rapid transfer back of [14C]mannose from the mannolipid to GDP-mannose. The other product of the reaction, the mannolipid, had the properties of a prenol phosphate mannose. This was illustrated by its lability to dilute acid but stability to dilute alkali, and by its chromatographic properties. Dolichol phosphate stimulated the incorporation of [14C]mannose into both mannolipid and into protein, although the former effect was larger and more consistent than the latter. The incorporation of exogenous [3H]dolichol phosphate into the mannolipid, and its release, accompanied by mannose, on treatment of the mannolipid with dilute acid, confirmed that exogenous dolichol phosphate can act as an acceptor of mannose in this system. It was shown that other exogenous polyprenol phosphates (but not farnesol phosphate or cetyl phosphate) can substitute for dolichol phosphate in this respect but that they are much less efficient than dolichol phosphate in stimulating the transfer of mannose to protein. Since pig liver contained substances with the chromatographic properties of both dolichol phosphate and dolichol phosphate mannose, which caused an increase in transfer of [14C]mannose from GDP-[14C]mannose to mannolipid, it was concluded that endogenous dolichol phosphate acts as an acceptor of mannose in the microsomal preparation. The results indicate that the mannolipid is an intermediate in the transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to protein. Some 4% of the mannose of a sample of mannolipid added to an incubation was transferred to protein. A scheme is proposed to explain the variations with time in the production of radioactive mannolipid, mannoprotein, mannose 1-phosphate and mannose from GDP-[14C]mannose that takes account of the above observations. ATP, ADP, UTP, GDP, ADP-glucose and UDP-glucose markedly inhibited the transfer of mannose to the mannolipid.  相似文献

A crude membrane preparation from Phaseolus aureus hypocotyls catalyzes the incorporation of mannose from GDP-[14C]mannose into a acid labile glycolipid and a methanol insoluble fraction. Addition of dolichyl monophosphate to the incubation mixture stimulated the formation of both the mannolipid and the methanol insoluble endproduct. Thin-layer chromatography of endogenous lipid and of the stimulated lipid fraction revealed that both compounds run identical. Ficaprenyl monophosphate also stimulates the incorporation of mannose; however, the ficaprenyl monophosphate mannose formed is not identical to the endogenous mannolipid. This suggests that the endogenous acceptor has the properties of an α-saturated polyprenyl monophosphate rather than those of the ficaprenyl phosphate type. The same membrane preparation also incorporates N-acetylglucosamine into an acid labile glyolipid as well as into a polymer fraction. Evidence is presented that the N-acetylglucosamine containing lipid consists of a mixture of dolichyl pyrophosphate N-acetylglucosamine and dolichyl pyrophosphate di-N-acetylchitobiose. It seems likely that the two compounds have a precursor-product relationship. Incubation of dolichyl pyrophosphate di-N-acetylchitobiose together with GDP-mannose gives rise to lipid-bound mannosyl-di-N-acetylchitobiose. Radioactivity from either the [14C]mannolipid or the N-acetyl[14C]glucosamine containing lipid is incorporated into a methanol insoluble product to 3.4 and 6.3%, respectively; it seems, at least in part, to be a glycoprotein.  相似文献

Of the subcellular fractions of rat liver the endoplasmic reticulum was the most active in GDP-mannose: retinyl phosphate mannosyl-transfer activity. The synthesis of retinyl phosphate mannose reached a maximum at 20-30 min of incubation and declined at later times. Retinyl phosphate mannose and dolichyl phosphate mannose from endogenous retinyl phosphate and dolichyl phosphate could also be assayed in the endoplasmic reticulum. About 1.8 ng (5 pmol) of endogenous retinyl phosphate was mannosylated per mg of endoplasmic reticulum protein (15 min at 37 degrees C, in the presence of 5 mM-MnCl2), and about 0.15 ng (0.41 pmol) of endogenous retinyl phosphate was mannosylated with Golgi-apparatus membranes. About 20 ng (13.4 pmol) of endogenous dolichyl phosphate was mannosylated in endoplasmic reticulum and 4.5 ng (3 pmol) in Golgi apparatus under these conditions. Endoplasmic reticulum, but not Golgi-apparatus membranes, catalysed significant transfer of [14C]mannose to endogenous acceptor proteins in the presence of exogenous retinyl phosphate. Mannosylation of endogenous acceptors in the presence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate required the presence of Triton X-100 and could not be detected when dolichyl phosphate was solubilized in liposomes. Dolichyl phosphate mainly stimulated the incorporation of mannose into the lipid-oligosaccharide-containing fraction, whereas retinyl phosphate transferred mannose directly to protein.  相似文献

Diumycin, a phosphoglycolipid antibiotic, inhibits different mannosyl transfer reactions in yeast. Using membrane preparations, the drug effectively inhibited the formation of dolichyl phosphate mannose (DolP-Man); 50% inhibition was observed at approximately 10 microgram/ml. To a lesser extent also mannosyl transfer from DolP-Man to protein decreased in presence of diumycin. Both mannosyl transfer to protein-serine/threonine acceptor sites as well as into positions within the asparagine-linked polymannose part of the yeast mannoprotein are inhibited to about 60% under conditions where DolP-Man formation is blocked. DolP-Man synthesis as well as mannosyl transfer from DolP-Man to protein are also inhibited by diumycin using solubilized enzymes and exogenous acceptor substrates. Glycosyltransfer reactions from GDP-mannose either to protein-serine/threonine-linked mannose (formation of short manno-oligosaccharides) or to dolichyl-diphosphate-linked chitobiose (formation of lipid-linked trisaccharide) are not inhibited by diumycin under conditions where DolP-Man synthesis is blocked by the antibiotic. The inhibitory action of diumycin on DolP-Man formation does not seem to be competitive with respect to dolichyl phosphate, since it cannot be overcome by higher concentrations of dolichyl phosphate.  相似文献

Microsomal preparations from rat adipose tissue catalyse the transfer of [14C]mannose from GDP-[14C]mannose to an endogenous acceptor forming a [14C]mannosyl lipid. The mannosyl lipid co-chromatographs with hen oviduct dolichyl monophosphate β-mannose on three solvent systems. It is stable to mild alkaline hydrolysis, but strong alkaline treatment yields a compound that co-migrates with mannose 1-phosphate. The mannosyl lipid is labile to mild acid hydrolysis, yielding [14C]mannose. Formation of the compound is reversible by GDP, but not GMP, and is stimulated by exogenous dolichyl phosphate.

The kinetics of transfer of [14C]mannose from GDP-[14C]mannose to form dolichyl monophosphate mannose were studied by using preparations derived from rats fed on one of four diets: G (high glucose), L (high lard), F (fructose) or GC (high glucose, 0.9% cholesterol). The Km and Vmax. values for transfer from GDP-mannose were virtually indistinguishable in the four preparations.

In the absence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate, the largest amount of transfer of [14C]mannose into the mannosyl lipid was observed with preparations from fructose-fed animals. Preparations from glucose-fed animals showed about 60% as much transfer, whereas membranes from rats fed the other diets showed intermediate values between the fructose- and glucose-fed animals. The inclusion of cholesterol in the glucose diet elicited an increase in transfer of mannose.

Under conditions of saturating exogenous dolichyl phosphate, preparations from lard-fed animals have 1.5 times as much enzyme activity as do preparations from animals fed the other three diets.

We investigated whether the polyenic and allylic phosphate systems of retinyl phosphate are essential for its mannosyl acceptor and donor activities in rat liver postnuclear membranes. Perhydromonoeneretinyl phosphate, a compound without growth-promoting activity in vitamin A-deficient animals, was prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of retinol and phosphorylation. Perhydromonoeneretinyl phosphate mannose synthesis from GDP-mannose showed continued accumulation for at least 60 min, while retinyl phosphate mannose synthesis showed a maximum at 20-30 min and then declined. Moreover, only retinyl phosphate stimulated transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to endogenous proteins, which were separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Thus, hydrogenation of side-chain double bonds in retinyl phosphate impaired only slightly its mannosyl acceptor activity, but caused loss of mannosyl donor activity.  相似文献

Rat liver microsomal fraction synthesized Ret-P-Man (retinyl phosphate mannose) and Dol-P-Man (dolichyl phosphate mannose) from endogenous Ret-P (retinyl phosphate) and Dol-P (dolichyl phosphate). Ret-P-Man synthesis displayed an absolute requirement for a bivalent cation, and also Dol-P-Man synthesis was stimulated by bivalent metal ions. Mn2+ and Co2+ were the most active, with maximum synthesis of Ret-P-Man occurring at 5-10 mM: Mg2+ was also active, but at higher concentrations. At 5mM-Mn2+ the amount of endogenous Ret-P mannosylated in incubation mixtures containing 5 microM-GDP-mannose in 15 min at 37 degrees C was approx. 3 pmol/mg of protein. In the same assays about 7-10 pmol of endogenous Dol-P was mannosylated. Bivalentcation requirement for Ret-P-Man synthesis from exogenous Ret-P showed maximum synthesis at 2.5 mM-Mn2+ or -Co2+. In addition to Ret-P-Man and Dol-P-Man, a mannolipid co-chromatographing with undecaprenyl phosphate mannose was detected. Triton X-100 (0.5%) abolished Ret-P-Man synthesis from endogenous Ret-P and caused a 99% inhibition of Ret-P-Man synthesis from exogenous Ret-P. The presence of detergent (0.5%) also inhibited Dol-P-Man synthesis from endogenous Dol-P and altered the requirement for Mn2+. Microsomal fraction from Syrian golden hamsters was also active in Ret-P-Man and Dol-P-Man synthesis from endogenous Ret-P and Dol-P. At 5 mM-Mn2+ about 2.5 pmol of endogenous Ret-P and 3.7 pmol of endogenous Dol-P were mannosylated from GDP-mannose per mg of protein in 15 min at 37 degrees C. On the other hand, microsomal fraction from vitamin A-deficient hamsters contained 1.2 pmol of Ret-P and 14.1 pmol of Dol-P available for mannosylation. Since GDP-mannose: Ret-P and GDP-mannose: Dol-P mannosyltransferase activities were not affected, depletion of vitamin A must affect Ret-P and Dol-P pools in opposite ways.  相似文献

A particulate enzyme fraction isolated from yeast (Hansenula holstii) catalyzes the transfer of mannose from GDPmannose to endogenous lipid acceptors. Kinetic studies are presented which suggest that one of the mannolipids is a precursor to cell wall mannan. The solubility and chromatographic properties, the stability to mild alkali, and the release of mannose by mild acid hydrolysis are characteristic of polyisoprenyl phosphoryl mannose. Addition of dolichol phosphate to the enzyme system stimulates the synthesis of a mannolipid with properties similar to that synthesized from endogenous lipid. That the exogenous dolichol phosphate was acting as a mannosyl acceptor was demonstrated by showing that dolichol [32P]phosphate was converted to dolichol [32P]phosphate mannose.  相似文献

Our previous work has shown that phenyl phosphate acts as an exogenous substrate for GDP-mannose:dolichyl phosphate mannosyltransferase in rat liver microsomal fractions to give rise to phenyl phosphate beta-D-mannose, a compound which, unlike Dol-P-Man (dolichyl phosphate beta-D-mannose), cannot act as mannose donor for further mannose-adding reactions in microsomal fractions. The study has now been extended to the action of various aryl phosphates and structurally related compounds on several other glycosyltransferase systems in the microsomal fractions. (1) Examination of the ability of these compounds to accept sugars from various sugar nucleotides indicated that the individual compounds have specificity as sugar acceptors. Thus phenyl phosphate acted as an effective acceptor for both mannose and glucose, whereas benzenephosphonic acid was active only in accepting mannose. p-Nitrophenyl phosphate was a more effective glucose acceptor than phenyl phosphate, but had only 8% of the mannose-accepting activity of phenyl phosphate. (2) Phenyl phosphate had an inhibitory effect on the transfer of mannose form GDP-mannose to lipid-linked oligosaccharides and to glycoproteins in rat liver microsomal fractions. The inhibition depended on the concentration of phenyl phosphate and on the extent of inhibition of Dol-P-Man synthesis. It is proposed that phenyl phosphate has a direct effect on the synthesis of Dol-P-Man and that its inhibition of synthesis of lipid-linked oligosaccharides and glycoproteins could be a consequence of this effect.  相似文献

The use of dolichyl phosphate-containing liposomes in glycoprotein biosynthesis under conditions that control the transfer of exogenous dolichyl phosphate from liposomes to microsomes is described. The exogenously added dolichyl phosphate is available for mannosylation, and direct evidence for the role of dolichyl phosphate as intermediate in protein mannosylation was shown by use of liposomes containing dolichyl [14C]mannosyl phosphate.  相似文献

Dolichyl monophosphate and its sugar derivatives in plants.   总被引:10,自引:5,他引:5       下载免费PDF全文
A glucose acceptor was isolated from soya beans by extraction with chloroform/methanol (2:1, v/v), followed by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography of the extract. This acceptor could not be distinguished from liver dolichyl monophosphate by t.l.c. It could replace dolichyl monophosphate as a mannose acceptor with a liver enzyme and its glucosylated derivative could replace dolichyl monophosphate glucose as a glucose donor in the same system. These results, together with those already reported [Pont Lezica, Brett, Romero Martinez & Dankert (1975) Biochem, Biophys. Res. Commun. 66, 980-987], indicate that the acceptor from soya bean is a dolichyl monophosphate. Gel filtration of its glucosylated derivative on Sephadex G-75 in the presence of sodium deoxycholate indicated that the acceptor contained 17 or 18 isoprene units. An enzyme preparation from pea seedlings was shown to use endogenous acceptors to form lipid phosphate sugars containing mannose and N-acetylglucosamine from GDP-mannose and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine. Chromatographic and degradative techniques indicated that the compounds formed were lipid monophosphate mannose, lipid pyrophosphate N-acetylglucosamine, lipid pyrophosphate chitobiose and a series of lipid pyrophosphate oligosaccharides containing both mannose and N-acetylglucosamine. None of these compounds was degraded by catalytic hydrogenation, and so the lipid moiety in each case was probably an alpha-saturated polyprenol. The endogenous acceptors for mannose and N-acetylglucosamine in peas may therefore be dolichyl monophosphate, as has been found in mammalian systems.  相似文献

Evidence suggesting that a single enzyme catalyzes mannosyl transfer from GDP-mannose to both dolichyl phosphate and to phenyl phosphate was obtained as follows: (a) The two activities were coeluted from columns of DEAE-cellulose and Sepharose CL-6B, (b) both reactions demonstrated similar kinetic constants for the glycosyl donor and for guanosine nucleoside inhibitors, (c) both reactions were sensitive to inhibition by low concentrations of nonionic detergents, and (d) both activities were found to be thermally inactivated at similar rates upon incubation at 55 degrees. The reaction conditions required for optimal mannosyl transfer by the purified enzyme preparation to the hydrophobic and water soluble acceptors, however, were found to be quite different. Whereas mannosyl transfer from GDP-mannose to dolichyl phosphate occurred at maximal rates only in the presence of specific phospholipids, the rate of mannosyl transfer to phenyl phosphate was essentially unaffected by the addition of phospholipid. These results indicate that dolichyl-mannosyl-phosphate-synthase, which has some of the properties of an intrinsic membrane protein, does not have an absolute requirement for phospholipid for catalytic activity, but rather that phospholipid is required for interaction of the enzyme with the long chain polyisoprenol substrate dolichyl phosphate.  相似文献
