Plant invertases play important roles in sucrose metabolism. Cell wall invertase was reported to participate in phloem loading and unloading. Soluble invertases would be involved in hexose level regulation in mature tissues and in stored sucrose utilization within vacuoles. Invertase inhibitory proteins were described as one of the possible mechanisms for invertase activity regulation in some plant species; nevertheless, these proteins were found only in sink tissues, suggesting that this mechanism would not be relevant in the sucrose turnover of leaves. This report describes the purification of invertase from Pteris deflexa fronds and the occurrence of an invertase inhibitory protein in this fern organ, as well as its purification and invertase-inhibitor interactions. The Mr of the invertase and of its inhibitory protein were 90,000 and 18,000, respectively. SDS-PAGE in the presence of 2-mercaptoetanol gave two subunits for the enzyme (Mr=66,000 and 30,000) and only one for the inhibitor. The inhibitor protein is a glycoprotein (12% w/w of neutral sugars) that did not show agglutinating activity like some others, and also showed a high heat stability at pH 5.0. The optimum pH of invertase activity is 5.0, while invertase inhibitory protein caused maximal inhibition at the same pH value. Invertase-inhibitor complex formation occurs in an immediate manner and a protease activity was discarded. The inhibition is non-competitive (Ki=1.5 x 10(-6) M) without interactions among the binding sites. The complex is slightly dissociable and sucrose was able to partially reduce the inhibitory effect. Up to the present, invertase inhibitory proteins have been found solely in heterotrophic tissues. In this work we demonstrate that this protein is also present in an autotrophic tissue of a lower vascular plant. 相似文献

Characterization and localization of three soluble invertase forms from Lilium longiflorum flower buds 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Three invertase forms (EC 3.2.1.26) were identified in soluble extracts from developing flower buds of Lilium longiflorum Thunb. cv. Nellie White. The enzymes were separable on a diethylaminoethyl (DEAE)-Sephacel column and designated invertase I. II or III according to the order of elution from Sephacel. To determine tissue specificity of these floral invertases, anthers were separated from tepal. pistil and filament tissue, and analyzed for invertase activity. Invertase I was localized primarily in anthers, with invertases II and III being present in much smaller amounts (less than 5% of the invertase I activity). Much higher levels of invertases II and III were found in the nonanther organs of the flower, where essentially no invertase 1 was detectable. Further purification of each form (using gel filtration. Con-A-Sepharose affinity chromatog-raphy and hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl-agarose) resulted in 135- 189- and 202-fold purification of pooled fractions from DEAE-Sephacel. respectively, and established that each invertase form is a glycoprotein. Each was an acid invertase. with pH optima between 4.0 and 5.0 and an apparent molecular mass of 77 500 Da (as determined by Sephadex gel filtration). The invertases had sucrose Km values of 1.0. 6.4 and 6.6 m M . and temperature optima of 40. 50 and 45°C. respectively. A temperature stability study revealed that invertase III was the most thermostable, followed by II and I. Invertases II and III had lower affinity to raffinose and stachyose than invertase I. All three enzymes were completely inhibited by Hg2+ or Ag+ ions at 1.7 m M . At this concentration. Cu2- showed differential partial inhibition . Although fructan was shown to be present in both anther and nonanther tissues of Lilium flower buds, these invertases showed no sucrose:sucrose fructosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.99) activity. 相似文献

An acid invertase from the fern Pteris deflexa Link was purified and the effect of reaction products on enzyme activity was studied. Fructose and glucose were competitive and non-competitive inhibitors of the enzyme, respectively. Since proteins suppressed glucose and fructose inhibition of the enzyme, an invertase modulation by reaction products is unlikely; nevertheless, an invertase proteinaceous inhibitor previously reported could have a role in this respect. The purified enzyme was an heterodimer Mr 90,000 Daltons composed of subunits of 66,000 and 30,000 Daltons. The enzyme had beta-fructofuranosidase activity and hydrolyzed mainly sucrose but also raffinose and stachyose, with Km of 3.22, 10.80 and 38.50 mM, respectively. Invertase activity with an optimum pH at 5.0 was present in almost every leaf fern tissue. Pinnas (sporophyll leaflets) had the higher enzyme levels. Invertase histochemical and immunochemical localization studies showed the enzyme mainly in phloem cells. Epidermis, collenchyma and parenchyma cells also showed invertase protein. 相似文献

The invertase inhibitor Nt-CIF from tobacco: a highly thermostable four-helix bundle with an unusual N-terminal extension 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Plant invertases are sucrolytic enzymes essential for plant metabolism and development. Enzyme activity is regulated on a posttranslational level via inhibitory proteins, referred to as invertase inhibitors. Ectopic expression of invertase inhibitors in crop plants has high biotechnological potential. However, little biochemical and up to now no detailed structural information is available about this class of plant regulatory proteins. Here, we present the crystal structure of the cell wall-associated invertase inhibitor Nt-CIF from tobacco at a resolution of 1.87A. The structural model reveals an asymmetric four-helix bundle with an uncommon N-terminal extension that appears to be critical for the structural integrity of the protein. Structure analysis of a second crystal form grown in the presence of CdCl(2) reveals two metal binding sites. Nt-CIF is highly thermostable and retains full inhibitory activity after cooling to ambient temperatures. The structure of Nt-CIF provides the first three-dimensional information source for the posttranslational regulation of plant invertases. Based on the recently discovered sequence homology between inhibitors of invertases and pectin methylesterases, our structural model is likely to represent a scaffold also used for the regulation of the latter enzymes, which do not share sequence similarity with invertases. Thus, our structural model sets the 3D-stage for the investigation of posttranslational regulation of invertases as well as pectin methylesterases. 相似文献

Three soluble isoforms of invertase (beta-fructofuranosidase; EC 3.2.1.26) were purified from 7-d-old primary leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Invertase I, a monomeric protein of 64 kD, was purified to apparent homogeneity as shown by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Invertases IIA and IIB, multimeric proteins with molecular masses of the 116 and 155 kD, were purified 780- and 1370-fold, respectively, but were not yet homogeneous. Extracts of epidermal strips of leaves contained only invertase IIB. The specific activity of invertase was more than 100-fold higher in the epidermis than in the mesophyll. All three isoforms were acidic invertases, with pH optima of around 5.0 and little activity in the alkaline range. Invertase I had a Km for sucrose of 8.1 mM, and invertases IIA and IIB had much lower values of 1.0 and 1.7 mM, respectively. Invertase I was more than 2-fold more resistant than the other two invertases to the inhibitors HgCl2 and pyridoxal. All three constitutive invertases were found to act also as sucrose-sucrose fructosyltransferases when supplied with high concentrations of sucrose, forming 1-kestose as principal product. However, the fructosyltransferase activity of all three enzymes was inhibited by pyridoxal in the same way as their invertase activity. This characteristic clearly differentiates them from the inducible sucrose-sucrose fructosyltransferase of barley leaves, the activity responsible for the initial steps of fructan biosynthesis, which has previously been shown to be insensitive to pyridoxal. 相似文献

Alkaline invertase from sprouting soybean (Glycine max) hypocotyls was purified to apparent electrophoretic homogeneity by consecutive use of DEAE-cellulose, green 19 dye, and Cibacron blue 3GA dye affinity chromatography. This protocol produced about a 100-fold purification with about a 11% yield. The purified protein had a specific activity of 48 mumol of glucose produced mg-1 protein min-1 (pH 7.0) and showed a single protein band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) (58 kDa) and in native PAGE, as indicated by both protein and activity staining. The native enzyme molecular mass was about 240 kDa, suggesting a homotetrameric structure. The purified enzyme exhibited hyperbolic saturation kinetics with a Km (sucrose) near 10 mM and the enzyme did not utilize raffinose, maltose, lactose, or cellibose as a substrate. Impure alkaline invertase preparations, which contained acid invertase activity, on contrast, showed biphasic curves versus sucrose concentration. Combining equal activities of purified alkaline invertase with acid invertase resulted in a biphasic response, but there was a transition to hyperbolic saturation kinetics when the activity ratio, alkaline: acid invertase, was increased above unity. Alkaline invertase activity was inhibited by HgCl2, pridoxal phosphate, and Tris with respective Ki values near 2 microM, 5 microM, and 4 mM. Glycoprotein staining (periodic acid-Schiff method) was negative and alkaline invertase did not bind to two immobilized lectins, concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin; hence, the enzyme apparently is not a glycoprotein. The purified alkaline invertase, and a purified soybean acid invertase, was used to raise rabbit polyclonal antibodies. The alkaline invertase antibody preparation was specific for alkaline invertase and cross-reacted with alkaline invertases from other plants. Neither purified soybean alkaline invertases nor the crude enzyme from several plants cross-reacted with the soybean acid invertase antibody. 相似文献

Characterization and distribution of invertase activity in developing maize (Zea mays) kernels 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Invertase ( β -fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) activity in developing maize ( Zea mays L. inbred W64A) was separated into soluble and particulate forms. The particulate form was solubilized by treatment with 1 M NaCl or with other salts. However, CaCl2 inhibited invertase activity, and neither detergents nor 0.5 M methyl mannoside were effective in solubilizing the invertase activity. The soluble and particulate invertases were both glycoproteins, both had pH optima of 5.0 and Km values for sucrose of 2.83 and 1.84 m M , respectively. The apparent molecular weight of salt-solubilized invertase was 40 kDa. Gel filtration of the soluble invertase showed multiple peaks with apparent molecular weights ranging from 750 kDa to over 9 000 kDa. Histochemical staining of cell wall preparations for invertase activity suggested that the particulate invertase is associated with the cell wall. Also, nearly all the invertase activity was localized in the basal endosperm and pedicel tissues, which are sites of sugar transport. No invertase activity was found in the upper endosperm, the embryo or in the placento-chalazal tissue. In contrast, sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13) activity was found primarily in the embryo and the upper endosperm, which are areas of active biosynthesis of storage compounds. 相似文献

This work describes a new invertase proteinaceous inhibitor from Cyphomandra betacea Sendt. (tomate de arbol) fruits. The proteinaceous inhibitor was isolated and purified from a cell wall preparation. The pH stability, kinetics of the inhibition of the C. betacea invertase, inhibition of several higher plant invertases and lectin nature of the inhibitor were studied. The inhibitor structure involves a single polypeptide (Mr = 19000), as shown by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE determinations. N-terminal aminoacid sequence was determined. The properties and some structural features of the inhibitor are compared with the proteinaceous inhibitors from several plant species (Beta vulgaris L., Ipomoea batatas L. and Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). All these inhibitors share lectinic properties, some common epitopes, some aminoacid sequences and a certain lack of specificity towards invertases of different species, genera and even plant family. In consequence, the inhibitors appear to belong to the same lectin family. It is now known that some lectins are part of the defence mechanism of higher plants against fungi and bacteria and this is a probable role of the proteinaceous inhibitors. 相似文献

The invertase (beta-fructofuranosidase, EC 3.2.1.26) of the rumen holotrich ciliate Isotricha prostoma has been purified. This is the first report of an enzyme purification from a known species of rumen protozoon. Cells were disrupted by ultrasonic treatment and the enzyme was purified from the cell-free extract by three successive liquid column chromatographies (Sepharose CL4B/octyl-Sepharose CL4B, DE52 DEAE-cellulose and concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B). This resulted in a 160-fold purification and a 15% yield. The major form of the purified enzyme was a tetramer with Mr about 350,000 that was readily dissociated by electrophoresis. The invertase was heterogeneous, as five types of monomers were shown by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis after denaturation. Part of this heterogeneity was due to different glycosylated forms of one of the polypeptides present in the purified enzyme. Isotricha prostoma invertase exhibited maximum activity at pH 5.5-6.0 and 50 degrees C. The kinetic properties of the purified enzyme were very similar to those of invertases from other sources such as yeast or plants (substrate and product inhibition, transferase activity). 相似文献

Alkaline invertase was induced during the initiation of suspension cultures of single cells from leaf explants of sugar beets in Murashige-Skoog liquid medium which contained benzyladenine. This activity was barely detectable in the leaves themselves. In suspension cultures, the presence of both acid and alkaline invertases was detected; alkaline invertase was only present in the cytoplasm of the cultured cells, whereas acid invertase was present in the cytoplasm and cell walls, and was also detected in the culture medium. The cell wall contained at least three types of acid invertase; two of these activities were solubilized by saline (saline-released) and EDTA (EDTA-released), respectively, and the third remained tightly associated with the cell wall. Saline-released and EDTA-released invertases from the cell wall showed the significant differences in their properties: the saline-released enzyme had the highest affinity for sucrose among the invertases tested, and was easily bound to cell walls, to DNA, and to a cation exchanger, unlike the EDTA-released enzyme. Sucrose is the source of carbon for plant cells in suspension culture and is probably degraded in the cell wall by the saline-released invertase, which had the highest activity and the highest affinity for sucrose. Hexose products of this degradation would be transported to cytoplasm. Soluble invertase, EDTA-released invertase from the cell wall, and one of two extracellular invertases behaved similarly upon chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. They had similar activity profiles with changing pH, and similar Km values for sucrose. Thus it appears that they are identical. Two extracellular invertases found in the growth medium of the suspension cultures were probably identical with those in the soluble fraction of callus and seedlings of sugar beets, because they showed similar behaviors during chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, and had similar activity profiles with changing pH and Km values for sucrose. 相似文献

Genetic evidences indicate that alkaline/neutral invertases are present in plant cell organelles, and they might have a novel physiological function in mitochondria. The present study demonstrates an invertase activity in the mitochondrial matrix of Helianthus tuberosus tubers. The pH optimum, the kinetic parameters and the inhibitor profile of the invertase activity indicated that it belongs to the neutral invertases. In accordance with this topology, transport activities responsible for the mediation of influx/efflux of substrate/products were studied in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The transport of sucrose, glucose and fructose was shown to be bidirectional, saturable and independent of the mitochondrial respiration and membrane potential. Sucrose transport was insensitive to the inhibitors of the proton-sucrose symporters. The different kinetic parameters and inhibitors as well as the absence of cross-inhibition suggest that sucrose, glucose and fructose transport are mediated by separate transporters in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The mitochondrial invertase system composed by an enzyme activity in the matrix and the corresponding sugar transporters might have a role in both osmoregulation and intermediary metabolism. 相似文献

A gene encoding Uninv, an invertase active in the neutral pH range, was isolated from a metagenomic library and the enzyme was biochemically characterized. The enzyme had an optimum pH of 6.5 and an optimum temperature of 50°C. It showed maximal ~37% sequence identity to all invertases identified so far. Uninv displayed typical Michaelis–Menten kinetics with substrate inhibition of sucrose, but it retained 50% activity at sucrose concentrations up to 1,000 mM. Uninv had no transfructosylating activity even at high sucrose concentrations. These properties will make this enzyme useful in the food industry. 相似文献

Acid and neutral invertases were found in the mesocarp of developing muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. cv Prince) fruit and the activities of these enzymes declined with maturation of the fruit, concomitantly with the accumulation of sucrose. Neutral invertase was only present in the soluble fraction and acid invertase was present in both the soluble and cell-wall fractions. The cell-wall fraction contained three types of acid invertase: a NaCl-released invertase; an EDTA-released invertase, and a tightly bound invertase that still remained on the cell wall after treatment with NaCl and EDTA. The soluble acid and neutral invertases could be separated from one another by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and they exhibited clear differences in their properties, namely, in their pH optima, substrate specificity, Km values for sucrose, and inhibition by metal ions. The EDTA-released invertase and the soluble acid invertase were similar with regard to their chromatographic behavior on DEAE-cellulose, but the NaCl-released invertase was different because it was adsorbed to a column of CM-cellulose. The soluble acid invertase and two cell-wall bound invertases had very similar characteristics with regard to optimal pH and temperature, Km value for sucrose, and substrate specificity. 相似文献

Extracellular invertase is involved in the regulation of clubroot disease in Arabidopsis thaliana 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Clubroot disease of Brassicaceae is caused by an obligate biotrophic protist, Plasmodiophora brassicae. During root gall development, a strong sink for assimilates is developed. Among other genes involved in sucrose and starch synthesis and degradation, the increased expression of invertases has been observed in a microarray experiment, and invertase and invertase inhibitor expression was confirmed using promoter::GUS lines of Arabidopsis thaliana. A functional approach demonstrates that invertases are important for gall development. Different transgenic lines expressing an invertase inhibitor under the control of two root-specific promoters, Pyk10 and CrypticT80, which results in the reduction of invertase activity, showed clearly reduced clubroot symptoms in root tissue with highest promoter expression, whereas hypocotyl galls developed normally. These results present the first evidence that invertases are important factors during gall development, most probably in supplying sugars to the pathogen. In addition, root-specific repression of invertase activity could be used as a tool to reduce clubroot symptoms. 相似文献

Properties of the Invertases of Cultured Sycamore Cells and Changes in Their Activity during Culture Growth 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
When cultured sycamore cells are homogenised in a phosphate-citrate buffer at pH 7.0 and the homogenate centrifuged two fractions are obtained both of which show the presence of an acid (opt. pH 4.0–4.5) and a neutral (opt. pH 7.0–7.4) invertase. The activity of the insoluble pellet appears to be located in its cell wall fragments. The acid and neutral invertases of the soluble fraction can be separated by fractional precipitation with (NH4SO4. The activities of these enzymes are low in stationary phase cells but they increase following subculture to reach peaks of activity towards the end of the period of most active cell growth and division and then decline again as the cells begin to enter stationary phase. The activities of both enzymes are higher in the cell wall than in the soluble fraction and the acid invertase reaches higher levels of activity than the neutral enzyme in both fractions. When cells are subcultured there occurs within a few hours an increase in the acid invertase and a decline in the neutral invertase activity in the cell wall fraction and a decline in the acid invertase of the soluble fraction prior to the large net increases in the activities of both enzymes in both locations which occurs as the cells embark upon cell division. The pattern of changes in the invertase activities through the growth cycle of batch propagated cultures is similar whether the cells are grown in sucrose, or glucose, or sucrose plus glucose; the highest levels of activities were recorded in the glucose-grown cells. The total yield of invertase activities and the distribution of activities between the soluble and cell wall fractions of the homogenates are affected by the pH of the extraction medium (within the range pH 4.0–8.0). It has not proved possible to completely remove the invertases from the cell wall fraction; upwards of 50 % of the acid invertase was recovered from this fraction by treatment with Triton-X followed by urea, but these treatments inactivated a high proportion of the neutral enzyme. These findings are compared with other studies on the activity and intra-cellular distribution of plant invertases and the possible roles of these enzymes discussed. 相似文献

Summary Alkaline invertase of roots of carrot (Daucus carota L.) did not hydrolyze raffinose while the acid invertase from the same tissue showed with this sugar ca. 60% of the activity found with sucrose. The activity of the two invertases was inhibited by fructose to a different extent, the K

value being ca. 4×10–2 M and 3×10–1M, respectively, for the alkaline and the acid invertases from the roots of both carrot and turnip (Brassica rapa L.). It is proposed that fructose inhibition of acid invertase is of no physiological significance but that, in contrast, hexoses might regulate the activity of alkaline invertase.Comparing several species and cultivars, it was found that the content of reducing sugars and the activity of alkaline invertase of mature tuberous roots showed a positive correlation. This indicates that alkaline invertase may participate in the regulation of the hexose level of the cell, as was previously suggested for sugar-cane. A scheme is presented which proposes a way of participation of alkaline invertase in such a regulation, assuming that this enzyme is located in the cytoplasm and acid invertase is membrane-bound and mainly located at the cell surface. 相似文献
