ADP-induced platelet responses play an important role in the maintenance of hemostasis. There has been disagreement concerning the identity of an ADP receptor on the platelet surface. The chemical structure of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD-Cl) shows considerable resemblance to that of the adenine moiety of adenine-based nucleotides. The reagent has been previously used by other investigators as an affinity label for adenine nucleotide-requiring enzymes, such as mitochondrial ATPase and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Since ADP-induced platelet responses depend on the binding of ADP to its receptor, we investigated the effect on ADP-induced platelet responses and the nature of ADP-binding protein modified by NBD-Cl. NBD-Cl inhibited ADP-induced shape change and aggregation of platelets in platelet-rich plasma in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. NBD-Cl also inhibited ADP-induced shape change, aggregation, exposure of fibrinogen binding sites, secretion, and calcium mobilization in washed platelets. NBD-Cl did not act as an agonist for platelet shape change and aggregation. Covalent modification of platelets by NBD-Cl blocked the ability of ADP to antagonize the increase in intracellular levels of cAMP mediated by iloprost (a stable analogue of prostaglandin I2). NBD-Cl was quite specific in inhibiting platelet aggregation by those agonists, e.g., ADP, collagen, and U44619 (a thromboxane mimetic), that completely or partially depend on the binding of ADP to its receptor. Autoradiogram of the gel obtained by SDS-PAGE of solubilized platelets modified by [14C]-NBD-Cl showed the presence of a predominant radiolabeled protein band at 100 kDa corresponding to aggregin, a putative ADP receptor. The intensity of this band was considerably decreased when platelets were either preincubated with ADP and ATP or covalently modified by a sulfhydryl group modifying reagent before modification by [14C]-NBD-Cl. These results (1) indicate that covalent modification of aggregin by NBD-Cl contributed to loss of the ADP-induced platelet responses, and (2) suggest that there is a sulfhydryl group in the ADP-binding domain of aggregin. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

5'-p-Fluorosulfonylbenzoyl adenosine (FSBA), a nucleotide analog of ADP, has been shown to inhibit ADP-induced shape change, aggregation and exposure of fibrinogen binding sites concomitant with covalent modification of a single surface membrane polypeptide of Mr 100,000 (aggregin). Since thrombin can aggregate platelets which have been modified by FSBA and are refractory to ADP, we tested the hypothesis that thrombin-induced platelet aggregation might involve cleavage of aggregin. At a low concentration of thrombin (0.05 U/ml), platelet aggregation, exposure of fibrinogen receptors and cleavage of aggregin in FSBA-modified platelets did not occur, indicating ADP dependence. In contrast, incubation of [3H]FSBA-labeled intact platelets with a higher concentration of thrombin (0.2 U/ml) resulted in cleavage of radiolabeled aggregin, aggregation, and exposure of fibrinogen binding sites. Under identical conditions, aggregin in membranes isolated from [3H]FSBA-labeled platelets was not cleaved by thrombin. Thrombin-induced platelet aggregation and cleavage of aggregin were concomitantly inhibited by a mixture of 2-deoxy-D-glucose, D-gluconic acid 1,5-lactone, and antimycin A. These results suggest that thrombin cleaves aggregin indirectly by activating an endogeneous protease. Thrombin is known to elevate intracellular Ca2+ concentration and thereby activates intracellular calcium dependent thiol proteases (calpains). In contrast to serine protease inhibitors, calpain inhibitors including leupeptin, antipain, and ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N'-tetraacetic acid (chelator of Ca2+) inhibited platelet aggregation and cleavage of aggregin in [3H]FSBA-labeled platelets. Leupeptin, at a concentration of 10-20 microM, used in these experiments, did not inhibit the amidolytic activity of thrombin, thrombin-induced platelet shape change, or the rise in intracellular Ca2+. Purified platelet calpain II caused aggregation of unmodified and FSBA-modified platelets and cleaved aggregin in [3H]FSBA-labeled platelets as well as in isolated membranes. The latter is in marked contrast to the action of thrombin on [3H]FSBA-labeled membranes. Thus, thrombin-induced platelet aggregation may involve intracellular activation of calpain which proteolytically cleaves aggregin thus unmasking latent fibrinogen receptors, a necessary prerequisite for platelet aggregation. 相似文献

Previous studies from our laboratories showed that 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl adenosine (FSBA) inhibits ADP-induced platelet shape change, aggregation, and exposure of fibrinogen sites while covalently binding to 100-kDa platelet membrane protein (aggregin) on the intact platelet. Chymotrypsin digests aggregin to a fragment of 70 kDa, abolishing the inhibition, and also cleaves platelet glycoprotein IIIa (GPIIIa) (100 kDa) to a 70-kDa fragment containing the P1A1 epitope. We questioned whether these platelet membrane proteins were distinct. Both 5'-p-[3H]sulfonylbenzoyl adenosine (SBA)-labeled aggregin and 125I-GPIIIa were precipitated by polyclonal antibodies to a 100-kDa fraction of platelet membranes, but aggregin was not precipitated by a monospecific antibody to P1A1 which precipitates GPIIIa. Further a monospecific polyclonal antibody to immunopurified GPIIIa coupled to protein A-Sepharose adsorbed GPIIIa but not aggregin. Similarly, both aggregin and GPIIIa were precipitated by a polyclonal antibody to an isolated 70-kDa component of platelet membrane but only GPIIIa was precipitated by the monoclonal antibody to GPIIIa, (SSA6). Two patients with Glanzman's thrombasthenia whose platelet membranes contained less than 5% GPIIIa as assayed by monoclonal antibody binding (A2A6), incorporated [3H]SBA to the same extent as normal individuals. Furthermore, FSBA inhibited ADP-induced shape change with a similar concentration dependence for both thrombasthenic and normal platelets. Finally, mobility of GPIIIa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was decreased following reduction with dithiothreitol whereas that of [3H]SBA-labeled MP 100 was not altered. We conclude that GPIIIa and aggregin are distinct platelet membrane proteins. 相似文献

1. Platelets containing adenine nucleotides labelled with 3H and 14C in vitro were aggregated biphasically with ADP and adrenaline. Amounts of ATP and ADP as well as the radioactivity of ATP, ADP, AMP, IMP, hypoxanthine and adenine were determined in platelets and plasma at different stages of aggregation. 2. ATP and ADP were released during the second aggregation phase and had a low specific radioactivity compared with the ATP and ADP retained by the cells. The specific radioactivity of intracellular nucleotides increased during release. The parameters observed with ADP and adrenaline as release inducers were the same as for collagen and thrombin. 3. Release induced by all four inducers was accompanied by conversion of cellular [3H]ATP into extracellular [3H]-hypoxanthine. By variation of temperature, inducer concentration, time after blood withdrawal and use of acetylsalicylic acid, the aggregation pattern caused by adrenaline and ADP could be made mono- or bi-phasic. Release or second-phase aggregation was intimately connected with the ATP–hypoxanthine conversion, whereas first phase aggregation was not. 4. The [3H]ATP–hypoxanthine conversion started immediately after ADP addition. With adrenaline it usually started with the appearance of the second aggregation phase. The conversion was present during first phase of ADP-induced aggregation only if a second phase were to follow. 5. When secondary aggregation took place while radioactive adenine was being taken up by the platelets, increased formation of labelled hypoxanthine still occurred, but there was either no change or an increase in the concentration of labelled ATP. 6. Biphasically aggregated platelets converted [3H]adenine more rapidly into [3H]-ATP and -hypoxanthine than non-aggregated platelets. Addition of [3H]adenine at different stages of biphasic aggregation showed that more [3H]hypoxanthine was formed during than after the release step. 7. We conclude that ADP and adrenaline, like thrombin and collagen, cause extrusion of non-metabolic granula-located platelet adenine nucleotides. During release metabolic ATP breaks down to hypoxanthine, and this process might reflect an ATP-requiring part of the release reaction. 相似文献

The interaction of ADP with platelets leads to shape change, exposure of fibrinogen binding sites, and aggregation, all of which have been shown to be inhibited by 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (FSBA), an alkylating analogue of adenine nucleotides which binds covalently to a 100-kDa polypeptide in intact platelet membranes (Figures, W. R., Niewiarowski, S., Morinelli, T., Colman, R. F., and Colman, R. W. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 7789-7795). In plasma, FSBA can break down to adenosine which stimulates adenylate cyclase. To distinguish between direct effects of FSBA and the actions of adenosine, we have used washed platelet suspensions and adenosine deaminase. We studied the effects of FSBA on shape change and cyclic AMP metabolism, and on the binding of 2-methylthio-ADP, which mimics the effects of ADP on cyclic AMP metabolism at concentrations too low to activate platelets. Inhibition of ADP-induced shape change of platelets incubated with FSBA for 2 min in platelet-rich plasma was greatly reduced by adenosine deaminase. In the presence of a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, 100 microM FSBA increased platelet cyclic AMP to the same extent as did 10 microM adenosine. These effects were inhibited by theophylline, an adenosine receptor antagonist, and by adenosine deaminase. Incubation of washed platelets for 60 min with FSBA and adenosine deaminase caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of ADP-induced shape change. Inhibition closely paralleled the covalent incorporation of 3H from tritiated FSBA into platelet membranes. Under these conditions, FSBA did not block inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation by ADP, nor did it block the binding of 2-methylthio-ADP. We conclude that part of the inhibition of shape change caused by brief exposure to FSBA is due to adenosine, but at longer times shape change is inhibited in association with covalent incorporation of sulfonylbenzoyladenosine. This effect of FSBA is independent of adenosine and occurs at a site distinct from that at which ADP inhibits adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Changes in phosphoinositide metabolism were examined in washed rabbit platelets stimulated with 0.5 microM-ADP, 50 microM-adrenaline, or ADP and adrenaline in combination. Adrenaline does not stimulate platelet aggregation when used alone, but does potentiate aggregation stimulated by ADP. In platelets prelabelled with [32P]Pi and [3H]glycerol, adrenaline was found to potentiate the ADP-induced changes in platelet phospholipids, causing larger increases in the amount and labelling of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidic acid than was observed with ADP alone. The combination of ADP and adrenaline did not produce a greater decrease in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) than was produced by ADP alone. In platelets prelabelled with [3H]inositol, adrenaline potentiated the increases in labelling of inositol phosphate and inositol bisphosphate stimulated by ADP; no increase in inositol trisphosphate labelling was detected with ADP alone or with the combination of ADP and adrenaline. Phentolamine, an alpha-adrenergic-receptor antagonist, blocked potentiation by adrenaline of ADP-induced changes in phosphoinositide metabolism. Propranolol and sotalol, beta-adrenergic-receptor antagonists, augmented the potentiation; this is consistent with the concept that the effect of adrenaline is mediated by beta-adrenergic receptors. The effect of adrenaline on phosphoinositide metabolism appears to be to potentiate the mechanisms by which ADP causes turnover of PIP and possibly degradation of PI, rather than the mechanism by which PIP2 is decreased. 相似文献

A borohydride reduction method was used to identify the phosphorylated amino acid in the phospho-enzyme of the red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) plasma membrane ATPase. Plasma membrane fractions were phosphorylated with unlabeled ATP in the presence of MgSO4 at pH 6.5 and then treated with sodium [3H]borohydride. The borohydride-treated samples were subjected to hydrolysis in 6 normal HCl at 110°C for 22 hours and then analyzed by high voltage paper electrophoresis and thin layer chromatography. This analysis demonstrated the formation of labeled homoserine as the major reduction product when phosphorylated membrane samples were treated with sodium [3H]borohydride. This suggests that the phosphoryl group in the plasma membrane ATPase of red beet storage tissue is attached to the β-carboxyl side chain of an aspartic acid residue in the active site of the enzyme. 相似文献

In the present study, the mechanism of antiplatelet activity of DK-002, a synthesized (6aS,cis)-9,10-Dimethoxy-7,11b-dihydro-indeno[2,1-c]chromene-3,6a-diol, was investigated. DK-002 inhibited the thrombin, collagen, and ADP-induced rat platelet aggregation in a concentration-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 120, 27, and 47 μM, respectively. DK-002 also inhibited thrombin-induced dense granule secretion, thromboxane A2 synthesis, and [Ca2+]i elevation in platelets. DK-002 did not show any significant effect on ADP-induced inhibition of cyclic AMP elevation by prostaglandin E1, but DK-002 was confirmed to inhibit ADP-induced [Ca2+]i elevation and shape change. DK-002 inhibited 4-bromo-A23187-induced [Ca2+]i elevation in the presence of creatine phosphate/creatine phosphokinase (CP/CPK, a ADP scavenging system) and indomethacin (a specific inhibitor of cyclooxygenase). DK-002 also inhibited Ca2+ mobilization in thrombin- or 4-bromo-A23187-stimulated platelets through its inhibitory effects on both Ca2+ release from intracellular stores and Ca2+ influx, in the presence of CP/CPK and indomethacin. Taken together, the present study shows that DK-002 has inhibitory effects on stimulation of platelets, and suggests that its antiplatelet activity might be related to the inhibitory mechanism on Ca2+ mobilization in stimulated platelets. 相似文献

Addition of ADP induces platelets in plasma to undergo shape change from a disc to a spiny sphere and to develop adhesiveness, i.e. to aggregate. The aggregation of human platelets by ADP is associated with a net uptake of Na+. The present experiments demonstrate that the induction of shape change by ADP in acidified or EGTA-treated plasma conditions which inhibit aggregation, is also associated with a movement of Na+ into platelets. When ADP-induced platelet shape change and aggregation is inhibited by prostaglandin E1 Na+ uptake is also blocked. Platelets aggregated by epinephrine do not take up Na+. In a manner analogous to the effect of ADP, polylysine also induces Na+ uptake during aggregation. Vasopressin, in a manner analogous to epinephrine, induces aggregation without Na+ uptake. The increase in platelet Na+ resulting from ouabain inhibition of Na+ efflux induces an increase in the aggregation response to ADP and to epinephrine. 相似文献

Enzymatic preparation of high specific activity radiolabeled (I)-L-5-methyltetrahydropteroylglutamate 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
5-CH3[G-3H]H4PteGlu (sp act 5.0 Ci/nmol) was synthesized by direct enzymatic reduction of [G-3H]PteGlu by dihydropteroylglutamate reductase to H4PteGlu. The latter was reacted with formaldehyde to give 5,10-CH2-H4-PteGlu which was reduced to the final product by sodium borohydride. A single chromatographic step on TEAE-cellulose afforded 5-CH3[G-3H]H4PteGlu in high yield at a radiochemical purity of about 99%. 相似文献

A method is described for the determination of 5′-terminal methylated (cap) structures in unlabeled mRNA based on oxidation with NaIO4, reduction with NaB[3H]4, cleavage with P1 nuclease, and separation on a strong anion-exchange resin by high-performance liquid chromatography (hplc). Model compounds (cap 1 dinucleotides) were used to show that no structural alteration other than cleavage of the ribose ring of 7-methylguanosine occurred under the conditions used for oxidation and reduction. It was shown that the enzyme tobacco acid pyrophosphatase could be used to cleave cap dinucleotides containing unmodified or ring-opened ribose moieties and could also be used to release [3H]pm7G′ from NaB[3H]4-labeled rabbit globin mRNA. All five known cap 1 dinucleotides were resolved by hplc. The cap of rabbit globin mRNA was identified as m7Gpppm6Am, in agreement with other methods of determination. 相似文献

Energy-linked Adenosine Diphosphate Accumulation by Corn Mitochondria: I. General Characteristics and Effect of Inhibitors

Corn mitochondria show respiration-linked net accumulation of [3H]ADP in the presence of phosphate and magnesium, especially if the formation of ATP is blocked with oligomycin. Inhibition of ADP-ATP exchange by carboxyatractyloside also activates ADP accumulation, and addition of carboxyatractyloside or palmitoyl-coenzyme A to oligomycin-blocked mitochondria produces additional ADP uptake. With carboxyatractyloside the accumulated ADP is phosphorylated to ATP. With oligomycin, only a little ATP is formed. Millimolar concentrations of ADP are required for maximum uptake, and the Km (3.77 millimolar) for ADP translocation is independent of whether oligomycin or carboxyatractyloside is used. This is not true for ADP concentrations in the 0.05 to 0.25 millimolar range. Accumulated [3H]ADP rapidly exchanges with unlabeled AMP, ADP, or ATP, but not with other diphosphate nucleotides or 2 millimolar substrate anions. [3H]AMP is not accumulated, but [3H]ATP is accumulated to about one-half the extent of [3H]ADP. Tricarboxylate substrates inhibit ADP net uptake, and inhibition by citrate is competitive with Ki = 10 millimolar. The evidence suggests the presence of a pathway, carboxyatractyloside-insensitive and different from the translocase, which operates to maintain adenine nucleotides in the matrix. 相似文献

Abstract: SH-SY5Y neural cells expressing μ- and δ-opioid receptors were maintained viable in isotonic, sodium-free buffer in vitro. Intracellular sodium levels were manipulated by various methods, and ligand binding to intact cells was studied. In physiological buffer containing 118 mM sodium, [3H]Tyr-d -Ala-Gly-(Me)Phe-Gly-ol ([3H]-DAMGO) and [3H]naltrexone bound to μ receptor with KD values of 3.1 and 0.32 nM and Bmax values of 94 and 264 fmol/mg of protein, respectively. Replacement of sodium by choline decreased the affinity of the antagonist and increased Bmax for [3H]DAMGO, without significantly affecting the other corresponding binding parameters. Depolarizing concentrations of KCl (34 mM) in physiological buffer decreased the intracellular sodium levels by 67%, but this did not decrease the [3H]DAMGO binding to the cells. Incubation of cells with monensin and ouabain increased the intracellular sodium levels dramatically (from 78 to 250 and 300 nmol/mg, respectively), with no changes in agonist binding parameters. Ethylisopropylamiloride inhibited [3H]DAMGO and [3H]naloxone binding to intact cells with EC50 values of 24 and 3,600 nM, respectively. Adenylyl cyclase activities measured in intact cells, at different concentrations of sodium, showed the physiological significance of this ion in signal transduction. Potency of DAMGO in inhibiting the forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity was significantly higher at lower concentrations of sodium. However, inhibition reached the maximal level only at 50 mM sodium, and typical sigmoidal dose-response curves were obtained only in the presence of 118 mM sodium. Furthermore, even at low or high intracellular sodium levels, DAMGO inhibition of cyclic AMP levels was normal. These results support a role for extracellular sodium in regulating not only the ligand interactions with the receptor, but also the signal transduction through the μ receptor. 相似文献

Further chemical evidence has been obtained using NaB3H4 to support our previous assignment of a thiol ester bond in human C3 (Tack, B. F., Harrison, R. A., Janatova, J., Thomas, M. L., and Prahl, J. W. (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 77, 5764-5768). Following trypsin activation of human C3 in the presence of NaB3H4, 3H was shown to have incorporated specifically into the alpha'-chain of C3b. Subsequent fragmentation of [3H]C3b with porcine elastase further localized the label to the C3d subdomain. Under identical conditions, native C3 or C3 pretreated with trypsin (C3b) showed low reactivity with NaB3H4. A tryptic peptide containing the 3H label was isolated following digestion of [3H]C3b on activated thiol-Sepharose. After hydrolysis and saponification of the peptide hydrolysate, amino acid analysis indicated that the 3H had been incorporated into alpha-amino-delta-hydroxyvaleric acid, the product expected from reduction of an ester bond involving a glutamyl residue. On sequence analysis of the labeled peptide, the 3H was shown to reside at the position of the glutamyl residue previously proposed to be involved in the thiol ester bond. The residue at this position was confirmed as alpha-amino-delta-[3H] hydroxyvaleric acid by high performance liquid chromatography analysis and, after back hydrolysis, by amino acid analysis. These data significantly strengthen earlier studies which indicated the presence of a beta-Cys-gamma-Glu thiol ester bond in human C3. 相似文献

Human Sda-active Tamm-Horsfall urinary glycoprotein labelled with galactose oxidase and tritiated sodium borohydride was found to contain both galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine as [3H]-labelled terminal non-reducing sugars. Fragmentation of the macromolecule achieved by hydrazinolysis and acid hydrolysis was followed by fractionation of the degradation products by gel filtration, ion exchange and paper chromatography. A major product was a disaccharide which contained unlabelled galactose and [3H]-labelled N-acetylgalactosamine. Sugar analysis, sodium borohydride reduction, methylation analysis and enzymic degradation enabled the structure N-acetyl-D-galactosaminyl-β-(1→4)-D-galactose to be assigned to the disaccharide. 相似文献

The receptor for ADP on the platelet membrane, which triggers exposure of fibrinogen-binding sites and platelet aggregation, has not yet been identified. Two enzymes with which ADP interacts on the platelet surface, an ecto-ATPase and nucleosidediphosphate kinase, have been proposed as possible receptors for ADP in ADP-induced platelet aggregation. In the present study, experiments were conducted with washed human platelets to examine if a relationship existed between platelet aggregation, fibrinogen binding and the enzymatic degradation of ADP. With 12 different platelet suspensions, a good correlation (P less than 0.01) was found between the extent of platelet aggregation and the amount of 125I-fibrinogen bound to platelets after ADP stimulation. No correlation was found between these parameters and the rate or extent of transformation of [14C]ADP to [14C]ATP or [14C]AMP. The binding of fibrinogen to platelets was inhibited in parallel with aggregation when ADP stimulation was impaired by the enzymatic degradation of ADP by the system creatine phosphate/creatine phosphokinase, or by the use of specific antagonists, such as ATP and AMP. These antagonists also influenced the enzymatic degradation of ADP. This effect occurred at lower concentrations of ATP or AMP than those required to inhibit ADP-induced platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding. Our results demonstrate that ATP and AMP may be used as specific antagonists of the ADP-induced fibrinogen binding to platelets. They do not provide evidence to suggest that enzymes which metabolize ADP on the platelet surface are involved in the mechanism of ADP-induced platelet aggregation. 相似文献

Human platelet glycoproteins were isolated from whole platelets by two methods. The first method, that of affinity chromatography on wheat germ agglutinin, is based on the known affinity of lectins for cell surface glycoproteins. When solubilized whole platelets are used as starting material for this procedure, elution with N-acetylglucosamine yields primarily a glycoprotein of Mr ≈ 150 000 as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis. The second method is based on the ability of the chaotropic salt lithium diiodosalicylate to extract glycoprotein from particulate cell fractions in water-soluble form. This method yields three major glycopeptides with apparent molecular weights after sulfhydryl reduction of 145 000, 125 000, and 95 000 as estimated on 5.6% sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gels. Carboxymethylation of these preparations in the presence of sulfhydryl-reducing agent further resolves a glycoprotein of Mr ≈ 165 000.Treatment of whole platelets by periodate oxidation and sodium[3H]borohydride reduction labels the three major glycoproteins extracted by lithium diiodosalicylate and the glycoprotein of Mr ≈ 150 000 isolated on wheat germ agglutinin confirming their surface orientation. However, glycoprotein with Mr ≈ 165 000 resolved by carboxymethylation of the lithium diiodosalicylate extracted glycoprotein mixture was not labelled by this method, suggesting that it represents the granule protein with similar electrophoretic characteristics described by others.Phosphorylation of intact platelets with 32Pi also results in labelling of glycoproteins isolated by both methods, suggesting that these molecules traverse the 相似文献

Epinephrine-promoted release of [3H]guanylylimidodiphosphate ([3H]Gpp(NH)p) from human platelet membranes has been used to probe the interactions between alpha2-adrenergic recpetors and Ni, the guanine nucleotide binding protein that couples those receptors to an inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity. We show here that ADP, which also acts through specific platelet receptors to inhibit adenylate cyclase activity, also promotes the release of [3H]Gpp(NH). The amount of [3H]Gpp(NH)-release elicited by epinephrine and by ADP together is equal to the sum of the amounts released by the two agents acting individually. Furthermore the maximal amounts of [3H]Gpp(NH)-release elicited by each of the two agents approximates the numbers of receptors for ADP and epinephrine present in the platelet membranes. These results suggest that the two receptor types interact with distinct portions of the pool of Ni molecules and that each receptor initiates guanine-nucleotide exchange on a single molecule of Ni. 相似文献

Light-induced exchange of tightly bound ADP on the membrane-associated chloroplast coupling factor 1 (CF1) was concluded to be a two-step mechanism involving a loose enzyme-ADP complex (Strotmann, H., Bickel-Sandkötter, S. and Shoshan, V. (1979) FEBS Lett. 101, 316–320). Rapid binding of [14C]ADP to the coupling factor after deenergization of thylakoids which were illuminated in the presence of [14C]ADP was suggested to reflect the conversion of loosely bound to tightly bound ADP. Experimental data of the present paper support the assumption of an intermediate enzyme form with loosely bound ADP: (a) the amplitude of the rapid binding phase is independent on the concentration of uncoupler added in the light; (b) the amplitude is virtually unaffected by dilution of the medium [14]CADP concentration; (c) high concentrations of unlabeled ADP are required to reduce the rapid binding phase while binding of medium [14C]ADP is inhibited by unlabeled ADP in the micromolar range. These results exclude the possibility that the rapid initial formation of tightly bound [14C]ADP on deenergization might be caused by an energized nucleotide-free enzyme form which is able to pick up [14C]ADP from the medium at a higher rate than the deenergized nucleotide-free form. At saturating [14C]ADP concentrations in the light, the amount of the loose enzyme-ADP complex is about 35%, while 65% of the coupling factors contain a tightly bound ADP. Dissociation of the loose complex is slow in the absence of medium nucleotides but accelerated if ADP is present, suggesting that ADP binding to another site of the enzyme promotes release of the former ADP molecule. The significance of the loosely bound nucleotide in the catalytic mechanism is discussed. 相似文献
