The Slater-Bonner method which is used for graphic determination of substrate constant (Ks) by linear dependence of apparent Michaelis constant (Km(app)) on the limiting rate (V(app)) of enzyme-catalysed reactions with activator participation has been critically analysed. It has been shown that although it is possible to record the mechanisms of such reactions as a scheme similar to Michaelis-Menten model which allow to find correlation Km(app) and V(app) as equation Km(app) = Ks + V(app)/k1[E]0 ([E]0 is a total enzyme concentration, k1 is a rate constant of enzyme-substrate complex formation from free enzyme and substrate) in order to calculate Ks and individual rate constants (k1, k(-1)), but this approach for investigation of all reactions with activator participation ought not to be used. The above equation is not obeyed in general, it may be true for some mechanisms only or under certain ratios of kinetic parameters of enzyme-catalysed reactions. 相似文献

As demonstrated previously, digitonin-permeabilized Xenopus oocytes have a large internal pool of sodium pumps which are inaccessible to cytosolic ouabain [Schmalzing, Kröner & Passow (1989) Biochem. J. 260, 395-399]. Access to internal ouabain-binding sites required permeabilization of inner membranes with SDS. In the present study, micromolar free Ca2+ was found to stimulate ouabain binding in the digitonin-permeabilized cells (K0.5 0.5 microM-Ca2+, h 1.9, average of seven experiments) without disrupting intracellular membranes. Sustained incubation at 9 microM-Ca2+ was as effective as SDS in inducing access to the ouabain-binding sites of the internal sodium pumps. Omission of either Mg2+ or ATP completely abolished the Ca2+ effect. Half-maximal stimulation by Ca2+ required approx. 0.4 mM-MgATP. Of a variety of nucleotides tested, none was as effective as ATP (rank order ATP greater than ADP greater than ATP[S] (adenosine 5''-[gamma-thio]triphosphate) greater than CTP greater than UTP greater than ITP = XTP greater than GTP). Pi, AMP, cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, GTP[S] (guanosine 5''-[gamma-thio]triphosphate) and a stable ATP analogue p[NH]ppA (adenosine 5''-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate), were ineffective. The metalloendoproteinase inhibitor carbobenzoxy-Gly-Phe-amide reduced the Ca2+ effect by some 50%. Inhibitors of chymotrypsin and the Ca2+ proteinase calpain had no effect. Ca2+ ionophores (A23187 and ionomycin) and the polycations neomycin and polymixin B blocked the Ca2+ response entirely. Neomycin also abolished a Ca2(+)-independent stimulation of ouabain binding by the wasp venom mastoparan. The requirements for increasing the accessibility of ouabain-binding sites are remarkably similar to those for exocytosis in secretory cells, suggesting that oocytes and eggs possess a Ca2(+)-regulated pathway for the plasma membrane insertion of sodium pumps. 相似文献

Membrane preparations from cultured pollen tubes of Nicotiana alata Link et Otto contain a Ca2+ -independent (1-3)-[beta]-D-glucan (callose) synthase activity that has a low affinity for UDP-glucose, even when activated by treatment with trypsin (H. Schlupmann, A. Basic, S.M. Read [1993] Planta 191: 470-481). Therefore, we investigated whether UDP-glucose was a likely substrate for callose synthesis in actively growing pollen tubes. Deposition of (1-3)-[beta]-glucan occurred at a constant rate, 1.4 to 1.7 nmol glucose min-1, in tubes from 1 mg of pollen from 3 h after germination; however, the rate of incorporation of radioactivity from exogenous [14C]-sucrose into wall polymers was not constant, but increased until at least 8 h after germination, probably due to decreasing use of internal reserves. UDP-glucose was a prominent ultraviolet-absorbing metabolite in pollen-tube extracts, with 1.6 nmol present in tubes from 1 mg of pollen, giving a calculated cytoplasmic concentration of approximately 3.5 mM. Radioactivity from [14C]-sucrose was rapidly incorporated into sugar monophosphates and UDP-glucose by the growing tubes, consistent with a turnover time for UDP-glucose of less than 1 min; the specific radioactivity of extracted UDP-[14C]glucose was equal to that calculated from the rate of incorporation of [14C]sucrose into wall glucans. Large amounts of less metabolically active neutral sugars were also present. The rate of synthesis of (1-3)-[beta]-glucan by nontrypsin-treated pollen-tube membrane preparations incubated with 3.5 mM UDP-glucose and a [beta]-glucoside activator was slightly greater than the rate of deposition of (1-3)-[beta]-glucan by intact pollen tubes. These data are used to assess the physiological significance of proteolytic activation of pollen-tube callose synthase. 相似文献

Tetrammine cobalt(III) phosphate [Co(NH3)4PO4] inactivates Na+/K(+)-ATPase in the E2 conformational state, dependent on time and concentration, according to Eqn (1): Co(NH3)4PO4 + E2 Kd in equilibrium E2.Co(NH3)4PO4k2----E'2.Co(NH3)4PO4. The inactivation rate constant k2 for the formation of a stable E'2.Co(NH3)4PO4 at 37 degrees C was 0.057 min-1; the dissociation constant, Kd = 300 microM. The activation energy for the inactivation process was 149 kJ/mol. ATP and the uncleavable adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate competed with Co(NH3)4PO4 for its binding site with Ks = 0.41 mM and 5 mM, respectively. MgPO4 competed with Co(NH3)4PO4 linearly, with Ks = 50 microM, as did phosphate (Ks = 16 mM) and Mg2+ (Ks = 160 microM). It is concluded that the MgPO4 analogue binds to the MgPO4-binding subsite of the low-affinity ATP-binding site (of the E2 conformation). Also, Na+ (Ks = 860 microM) protected the enzyme against inactivation in a competitive manner. From the intersecting (slope and intercept linear) noncompetitive effect of Na+ against the inactivation by Co(NH3)4PO4, apparent affinities of K+ for the free enzyme of 41 microM, and for the E.Co(NH3)4PO4 complex of 720 microM, were calculated. Binding of Co(NH3)4PO4 to the enzyme inactivated Na+/K(+)-ATPase and K(+)-activated phosphatase, and, moreover, prevented the occlusion of 86Rb+; however, the activity of the Na(+)-ATPase, the phosphorylation capacity of the high-affinity ATP-binding site and the ATP/ADP-exchange reaction remained unchanged. With Co(NH3)432PO4 a binding capacity of 135 pmol unit enzyme was found. Phosphorylation and complete inactivation of the enzyme with Co(NH3)432PO4 or the 32P-labelled tetramminecobalt ATP ([gamma-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP) at the low-affinity ATP-binding site, allowed (independent of the purity of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase preparation) a further incorporation of radioactivity from 32P-labelled tetraaquachromium(III) ATP ([gamma-32P]CrATP) to the high-affinity ATP-binding site with unchanged phosphorylation capacity. However, inactivation and phosphorylation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase by [gamma-32P]CrATP prevented the binding of Co(NH3)4 32PO4 or [gamma-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP to the enzyme. [gamma-32P]CO(NH3)4ATP and Co(NH3)432PO4 are mutually exclusive. The data are consistent with the assumption of a cooperation of catalytic subunits within an (alpha,beta)2-diprotomer, which change their interactions during the Na+/K(+)-pumping process. Our findings seem not to support a symmetrical Repke and Stein model of enzyme action. 相似文献

In a system derived from Escherichia coli, we carried out a detailed kinetic analysis of the inhibition of the puromycin reaction by lincomycin. N-Acetylphenylalanyl-tRNA (Ac-Phe-tRNA; the donor) reacts with excess puromycin (S) according to reaction [1], C+S Ks <--> CS k3 --> C'+P, where C is the Ac-Phe-tRNA-poly(U)-ribosome ternary complex (complex C). The entire course of reaction [1] appears as a straight line when the reaction is analyzed as pseudo-first-order and the data are plotted in a logarithmic form (logarithmic time plot). The slope of this straight line gives the apparent ksobs = k3[S]/(Ks + [S]). In the presence of lincomycin the logarithmic time plot is not a straight line, but becomes biphasic, giving an early slope (ke = k3[S]/(Ks(1 + [I]/Ki) + [S])) and a late slope (k1 = k3[S]/(Ks(1 + [I]/K'i + [S])). Kinetic analysis of the early slopes at various concentrations of S and I shows competitive inhibition with Ki = 10.0 microM. The late slopes also give competitive inhibition with a distinct inhibition constant K'i = 2.0 microM. Excluding alternative models, the two phases of inhibition are compatible with a model in which reaction [1] is coupled with reaction [2], C+I k4 <--> k5 CI k6 <--> k7 C*I, where the isomerization step CI <--> CI* is slower than the first step C+I <--> CI, Ki = k5/k4 and K'i = Ki [k7/(k6 + k7)]. Corroborative evidence for this model comes from the examination of reaction [2] alone in the absence of S. This reaction is analyzed as pseudo-first-order going toward equilibrium with kIeq = k7 + (k6 [I]/(Ki + [I])). The plot of kIeq versus [I] is not linear. This plot supports the two-step mechanism of reaction [2] in which k6 = 5.2 min-1 and k7 = 1.3 min-1. This is the first example of slow-onset inhibition of ribosomal peptidyltransferase which follows a simple model leading to the determination of the isomerization constants k6 and k7. We suggest that lincomycin inhibits protein synthesis by binding initially to the ribosome in competition with aminoacyl-tRNA. Subsequently, as a result of a conformational change, an isomerization occurs (CI <--> C*I), after which lincomycin continues to interfere with the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the isomerized complex. 相似文献

Four enol lactones, bearing phenyl or 1-naphthyl substituents on the alpha or beta positions [3-phenyl-6-methylenetetrahydro-2-pyranone (alpha Ph6H, IIc), 3-(1-naphthyl)-6-methylenetetrahydro-2-pyranone (alpha Np6H, IId), 4-phenyl-6-methylenetetrahydro-2-pyranone (beta Ph6H, IIIc), and 4-(1-naphthyl)-6-methylenetetrahydro-2-pyranone (beta Np6H, IIId)], available as pure R and S enantiomers, have been studied as alternate substrate inhibitors of chymotrypsin. Kinetic constants for substrate binding (Ks) and acylation (ka) were determined by a competitive substrate assay, using succinyl-L-Ala-L-Ala-L-Pro-L-Phe p-nitroanilide; the deacylation rate constant (kd) was determined by the proflavin displacement assay. All lactones undergo rapid acylation (ka varies from 17 to 170 min-1) that shows little enantioselectivity; there is, however, pronounced enantioselectivity in substrate binding for three of the lactones [Ks(R/S) = 40-110]. In each case it is the enantiomer with the S configuration that has the higher affinity. In all cases, deacylation rates are slow, and in two cases, acyl enzymes with half-lives of 4.0 and 12.5 h at pH 7.2, 25 degrees C, are obtained (for beta Ph6H and alpha Np6H, respectively). In these cases, high deacylation enantioselectivity is observed [kd(S/R) = 60-70], and the lactone more weakly bound as a substrate (R enantiomer) gives the more stable acyl enzyme. Two hypotheses, involving hindrance of the attack of water or an exchange of the ester and ketone carbonyl groups in the acyl enzyme, are advanced as possible explanations for the high stability of these acyl enzymes. 相似文献

SH-1 thiol of S-1 was modified with N-(1-oxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) iodoacetoamide spin label (IASL). The extent of dissociation, alpha, of spin-labeled myosin subfragment-1 (IASL-S-1) from acto-IASL-S-1 by a nucleotide was measured by an ultracentrifugal separation method, a light-scattering method, and a saturation transfer EPR method. The alpha values obtained by these three methods were the same within the limits of the experimental errors. The dependence of alpha on the concentrations of AMPPNP, [S], and F-actin, [A], could be described by the equation: alpha-1 = 1 + (1 + Ks/[S])[A]/KA. The Ks and KA values were 0.65-1.2 mM and 1.7-2.7 mg/ml, respectively, in 0.5 M KCl and 4 mM MgCl2 at pH 7.0 and 20 degrees C. The height of the weakly immobilized peak of the conventional EPR spectrum of IASL-S-1, W, increased linearly with increase in the ATP or AMPPNP concentration, and became saturated at 1 mol nucleotide/mol IASL-S-1. No change in W was observed upon the binding of IASL-S-1 with F-actin. The dependence of the extent of change in W, delta W, on [A] and [S] was given by delta W-1 = 1 + Ks/[S], where Ks = Ks/(1 + KA/[A]). This finding indicates that the delta W value is proportional to the amount of a nucleotide bound to IASL-S-1 and independent of the binding of F-actin to IASL-S-1. 相似文献

The family of gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABA(A)Rs) mediates two types of inhibition in the mammalian brain. Phasic inhibition is mediated by synaptic GABA(A)Rs that are mainly comprised of alpha(1), beta(2), and gamma(2) subunits, whereas tonic inhibition is mediated by extrasynaptic GABA(A)Rs comprised of alpha(4/6), beta(2), and delta subunits. We investigated the activation properties of recombinant alpha(4)beta(2)delta and alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) GABA(A)Rs in response to GABA and 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[5,4-c]pyridin-3(2H)-one (THIP) using electrophysiological recordings from outside-out membrane patches. Rapid agonist application experiments indicated that THIP produced faster opening rates at alpha(4)beta(2)delta GABA(A)Rs (beta approximately 1600 s(-1)) than at alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) GABA(A)Rs (beta approximately 460 s(-1)), whereas GABA activated alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) GABA(A)Rs more rapidly (beta approximately 1800 s(-1)) than alpha(4)beta(2)delta GABA(A)Rs (beta < 440 s(-1)). Single channel recordings of alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) and alpha(4)beta(2)delta GABA(A)Rs showed that both channels open to a main conductance state of approximately 25 pS at -70 mV when activated by GABA and low concentrations of THIP, whereas saturating concentrations of THIP elicited approximately 36 pS openings at both channels. Saturating concentrations of GABA elicited brief (<10 ms) openings with low intraburst open probability (P(O) approximately 0.3) at alpha(4)beta(2)delta GABA(A)Rs and at least two "modes" of single channel bursting activity, lasting approximately 100 ms at alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) GABA(A)Rs. The most prevalent bursting mode had a P(O) of approximately 0.7 and was described by a reaction scheme with three open and three shut states, whereas the "high" P(O) mode ( approximately 0.9) was characterized by two shut and three open states. Single channel activity elicited by THIP in alpha(4)beta(2)delta and alpha(1)beta(2)gamma(2S) GABA(A)Rs occurred as a single population of bursts (P(O) approximately 0.4-0.5) of moderate duration (approximately 33 ms) that could be described by schemes containing two shut and two open states for both GABA(A)Rs. Our data identify kinetic properties that are receptor-subtype specific and others that are agonist specific, including unitary conductance. 相似文献

Potassium (K+) channels mediating important physiological functions are characterized by a common pore-forming (P) domain. We report the cloning and functional analysis of the first higher plant outward rectifying K+ channel (KCO1) from Arabidopsis thaliana. KCO1 belongs to a new class of ''two-pore'' K+ channels recently described in human and yeast. KCO1 has four putative transmembrane segments and tandem calcium-binding EF-hand motifs. Heterologous expression of KCO1 in baculovirus-infected insect (Spodoptera frugiperda) cells resulted in outwardly rectifying, K+-selective currents elicited by depolarizing voltage pulses in whole-cell measurements. Activation of KCO1 was strongly dependent on the presence of nanomolar concentrations of cytosolic free Ca2+ [Ca2+]cyt. No K+ currents were detected when [Ca2+]cyt was adjusted to <150 nM. However, KCO1 strongly activated at increasing [Ca2+]cyt, with a saturating activity observed at approximately 300 nM [Ca2+]cyt. KCO1 single channel analysis on excised membrane patches, resulting in a single channel conductance of 64 pS, confirmed outward rectification as well as Ca2+-dependent activation. These data suggest a direct link between calcium-mediated signaling processes and K+ ion transport in higher plants. The identification of KCO1 as the first plant K+ outward channel opens a new field of structure-function studies in plant ion channels. 相似文献

Pre-steady-state and steady-state kinetics for the p.p. elastase-catalysed hydrolysis of ZAlaONp, one of the most favourable substrates for this serine protease, have been studied between pH 4.0 and 8.0. The results are consistent with the minimum three-step mechanism: (formula; see text) Under pre-steady-state conditions, where [E0] much greater than [S0], the values of the dissociation constant of the E X S complex (Ks = k-1/k+1) and of the individual rate constants for the catalytic steps (k+2 and k+3) have been determined over the whole pH range explored. Under steady-state conditions, where [S0] much greater than [E0], the values of kcat and Km have been obtained over the same pH range. The pH profiles of k+2, k+3, k+2/Ks, kcat, kcat/Km reflect the ionization of a group, probably His57, with a pKa value of 6.85 +/- 0.10. The values of Ks and Km are pH independent. The steady-state parameters for the p.p. elastase-catalysed hydrolysis of a number of p-nitrophenyl esters of N-alpha-carbobenzoxy-L-amino acids have been also determined between pH 4.0 and 8.0 and compared with those of b.beta-trypsin and b.alpha-chymotrypsin. For all the substrates examined the acylation step (k+2) is rate limiting in the p.p. elastase catalysis, between pH 4.0 and 8.0. The different catalytic behaviours of p.p. elastase, b.beta-trypsin and b.alpha-chymotrypsin are consistent with the known three-dimensional structures of these serine proteases. 相似文献

N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine is an excellent peptide substrate for carboxy-peptidase A; at 30 degrees C and pH 7.5, K(m) is 2.6 x 10(-5) M while k(cat) is 177 s(-1) (k(cat)/K(m) = 6.8 x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1)). Indole-3-acetic acid is a noncompetitive or mixed inhibitor towards the peptide and toward hippuryl-L-phenylalanine; plots of E/V vs [Inhibitor] are linear. N-Benzoyl-L-phenylalanine is a competitive inhibitor of peptide hydrolysis, and plots of E/V vs [Inhibitor] are again linear. One molecule of inhibitor binds per active site, and these inhibitors bind in different sites. At constant peptide substrate concentration and a series of constant concentrations of indole-3-acetic acid, plots of E/V vs the concentration of N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanine are linear and intersect behind the E/V axis and above the [Inhibitor] axis. This shows that both inhibitors can bind simultaneously and that binding of one facilitates the binding of the other (beta = 0.18). Employing the ester substrate hippuryl-DL,beta-phenyllactate, the same type of behavior is observed in the reverse sense; N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanine is a linear noncompetitive inhibitor and indole-3-acetic acid is a linear competitive inhibitor. Again the two inhibitor plot is linear and intersects above the [Inhibitor] axis (beta = 0.12). Previous X-ray crystallographic studies have indicated that indole-3-acetic acid binds in the hydrophobic pocket of the S'(1) site, while N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanine binds in the S(1)-S(2) site. The product complex for hydrolysis of N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine (phenylalanine + N-benzoyl-L-phenylalanine) occupies both of these sites. However, the present work shows that the peptide substrate does not bind to the enzyme at pH 7.5 so as to be competitive with indole-3-acetic acid. The binding sites may be formed via conformational changes induced or stabilized by substrate and product binding. Copyright 2000 Academic Press. 相似文献

Ribosomal S6 kinases (S6Ks) have been depicted as critical effectors downstream of growth factor pathways, which play an important role in the regulation of protein synthesis by phosphorylating the ribosomal protein, S6. The goal of this study was to determine whether S6Ks regulate heart size, are critical for the induction of cardiac hypertrophy in response to a pathological or physiological stimulus, and whether S6Ks are critical downstream effectors of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)-phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. For this purpose, we generated and characterized cardiac-specific S6K1 and S6K2 transgenic mice and subjected S6K1(-/-), S6K2(-/-), and S6K1(-/-) S6K2(-/-) mice to a pathological stress (aortic banding) or a physiological stress (exercise training). To determine the genetic relationship between S6Ks and the IGF1-PI3K pathway, S6K transgenic and knockout mice were crossed with cardiac-specific transgenic mice overexpressing the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R) or PI3K mutants. Here we show that overexpression of S6K1 induced a modest degree of hypertrophy, whereas overexpression of S6K2 resulted in no obvious cardiac phenotype. Unexpectedly, deletion of S6K1 and S6K2 had no impact on the development of pathological, physiological, or IGF1R-PI3K-induced cardiac hypertrophy. These studies suggest that S6Ks alone are not essential for the development of cardiac hypertrophy. 相似文献

The synthesis of polar aldosterone metabolites by rat liver microsomes at physiological concentrations of aldosterone (21.5 nM), was markedly inhibited by progesterone, testosterone, corticosterone, K+-canrenoate and estradiol-17 beta. In contrast, corticosterone and estradiol-17 beta significantly increased the synthesis of reduced aldosterone metabolites by 8- and 15-fold respectively, the majority of which were 5 alpha-reduced products of aldosterone. In experiments at higher substrate (aldosterone) concentrations (20-200 microM) the synthesis of ring A-reduced aldosterone metabolites by liver microsomes followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a Km[app] for aldosterone of 160 microM and Vmax[app] of 12.2 nmoles/mg protein/5 min. In these experiments progesterone, testosterone and K+-canrenoate all competitively inhibited the synthesis of reduced metabolites with inhibition constants (Ki [app]) of 70, 85 and 55 microM respectively; however, corticosterone did not. In contrast, estradiol-17 beta increased the rate of synthesis of reduced products by 40%, lowering the Km[app] to 83 microM. 相似文献

The kinetics of hydrolysis by Pseudomonas aeruginosa elastase at 37 degrees C and pH 7.3 of 3-(2-furyl)acryloyl-glycyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine is compatible with nonproductive substrate inhibition, i.e., v = V.[S]/(Km + [S] + [S]2/K1), and the values of Km, Ki, and kappa cat are 1.4 mM, 5.0 mM, and 240 s-1, respectively. Product inhibition experiments are in agreement with an ordered release of product, with L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine, the amino-containing product, being released first from the elastase.product complex. The values of Ki for L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine and 3-(2-furyl)acryloyl-glycine are 1.5 and 4.0 mM, respectively. Kinetic experiments indicate that the second molecule of substrate combines with elastase.substrate to form a dead-end elastase . (substrate)2 complex. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases [PtdIns4P5Ks] synthesise the majority of cellular phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] and phospholipase D1 (PLD1) synthesises large amounts of phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). The activities of PtdIns4P5Ks and PLDs are thought to be coupled during cell signalling in order to support large simultaneous increases in both PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdOH, since PtdOH activates PtdIns4P5Ks and PLD1 requires PtdIns(4,5)P(2) as a cofactor. However, little is known about the control of such a system. Membrane recruitment of ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) activates both PtdIns4P5Ks and PLDs, but it is not known if each enzyme is controlled in series by different Arfs or in parallel by a single form. We show through pull-down and vesicle sedimentation interaction assays that PtdIns4P5K activation may be facilitated by Arf-enhanced membrane association. However PtdIns4P5Ks discriminate poorly between near homogeneously myristoylated Arf1 and Arf6 although examples of all three known active isoforms (mouse alpha>beta, gamma) respond to these G-proteins. Conversely PLD1 genuinely prefers Arf1 and so the two lipid metabolising enzymes are differentially controlled. We propose that isoform selective Arf/PLD interaction and not Arf/PtdIns4P5K will be the critical trigger in the formation of distinct, optimal triples of Arf/PLDs/PtdIns4P5Ks and be the principle regulator of any coupled increases in the signalling lipids PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdOH. 相似文献

In an effort to determine whether the Na+-dependent Pi transport system of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells exhibits specificity for H2PO4- or HPO4(-2), Pi fluxes were determined by measuring 32Pi-Pi self-exchange. Three experimental approaches were employed. First, the effect of pH on steady-state Pi transport at 0.5 and 5 mM was studied. Second, the relationship between Pi transport and Pi concentration (0.25-9.2 mM) at pH 5.6 and 7.9 was determined. Third, the dependence of Pi transport on [H2PO4-] (0.05-4.2 mM) at constant [HPO4(-2)] (0.5 mM), and the converse, [HPO4(-2)] (0.06-4.5 mM) at constant [H2PO4-] (0.5 mM), was evaluated. Ks (apparent half-saturation constant) and Jmax (maximal transport rate) were calculated by two methods: weighted linear regression (WLR) and a nonparametric procedure. The dependence of Pi flux on pH indicates that optimum transport occurs at pH 6.9. Pi transport decreases as pH is reduced when extracellular Pi is either 0.5 or 5 mM. However, at pH 7.9, Pi flux is reduced only in 0.5 mM Pi. At pH 5.6, H2PO4- comprises 93% of the total Pi present, and the calculated Ks is 0.055 +/- 0.026 mM (WLR). This is the same as the Ks determined from the initial phase of the flux vs. [H2PO4-] relationship (0.056 +/- 0.020 mM). However, at pH 7.9 (where 94% of Pi is HPO4(-2)), the measured Ks is 0.58 +/- 0.11 mM (WLR), which is ten times higher than at pH 5.6. This value is also five times greater than the Ks calculated from the flux vs. [HPO4(-20)] curve (0.106 +/- 0.16 mM). Kinetic parameters calculated by the nonparametric method, though somewhat different, gave similar relative results. Taken together, these results support two conclusions: (1) H2PO4- is the substrate for the Na+-dependent Pi transport system of the Ehrlich cell, and (2) H+ can inhibit Pi transport. 相似文献

An Na+-stimulated Mg2+-transport system in human red blood cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The initial rate of net Mg2+ efflux was measured in human red blood cells by atomic absorption. In fresh erythrocytes incubated in Na+,K+-Ringer's medium this rate was 7.3 +/- 2.8 mumol/l cells per h (mean +/- S.D. of 14 subjects) with an energy of activation of 13 200 cal/mol. Cells with total Mg2+ contents ([ Mg]i) ranging from 1.8 to 24 mmol/l cells were prepared by using a modified p-chloromercuribenzenesulphonate method. Mg2+ efflux was strongly stimulated by increases in [Mg]i and in external Na+ concentrations ([ Na]o). A kinetic analysis of Mg2+ efflux as a function of [Mg]i and [Na]o revealed the existence of two components: an Na+-stimulated Mg2+ efflux, which exhibited a Michaelian-like dependence of free internal Mg2+ content (apparent dissociation constant = 2.6 +/- 1.4 mmol/l cells; mean +/- S.D. of six subjects) and on external Na+ concentration (apparent dissociation constant = 20.5 +/- 1.9 mM; mean +/- S.D. of four subjects) and a variable maximal rate ranging from 35 to 370 mumol/l cells per h, and an Na+-independent Mg2+ efflux, which showed a linear dependence on internal Mg2+ content with a rate constant of (6.6 +/- 0.7) X 10(-3) h-1. Fluxes catalyzed by the Na+-stimulated Mg2+ carrier were partially dependent on the ATP content of the cells and completely inhibited by quinidine (IC50 = 50 microM) and by Mn2+ (IC50 = 0.5-1.0 mM). 相似文献

For an enzyme (E) susceptible to substrate (S) inhibition, (S) can bind on one hand to (E) and on the other hand to (ES), leading to the dead-end complexes (SE) and (SES). In the general case where the (E)/(S) interaction obeys the Hill equation, the theoretical maximum velocity VM can be estimated when n not equal to 1, from the determination of velocities v beta at substrate concentrations S beta = Sm beta where Sm is the value corresponding to the actual maximum velocity vm. The Hill coefficient (n) as well as the constants KS, KSE and KSES corresponding to the respective dissociations of the complexes (ES), (SE) and (SES) are then determined from the equation: Ln (v/(VM-v] = nLnS-LnKS(1 + Sn/KSE + S2n/KS KSES) and its two asymptotes. 相似文献

An intermediate-conductance K+ channel (I.K.), the activity of which is increased by hyperpolarization, was previously identified in the lateral membrane of the cortical collecting duct (CCD) of the rat kidney (Wang, W. H., C. M. McNicholas, A. S. Segal, and G. Giebisch. 1994. American Journal of Physiology. 266:F813-F822). The biophysical properties and regulatory mechanisms of this K+ channel have been further investigated with patch clamp techniques in the present study. The slope conductance of the channel in inside-out patches was 50 pS with 140 mM KCl in the pipette and 5 mM KCl, 140 mM NaCl (NaCl Ringer''s solution) in the bath. Replacement of the bath solution with symmetrical 140 mM KCl solution changed the slope conductance of the channel to 85 pS and shifted the reversal potential by 55 mV, indicating that the selectivity ratio of K+/Na+ was at least 10:1. Channel open probability (Po) in inside-out patches was 0.12 at 0 mV and was increased by hyperpolarization. The voltage-dependent Po was fitted with the Boltzmann''s equation: Po = 1/[1 + exp(V-V1/2)zF/RT], with z = 1.2 and V1/2 = -40 mV. Addition of 2 mM tetraethylammonium or 500 mM quinidine to the bath blocked the activity of the K+ channel in inside-out patches. In addition, decrease in the bath pH from 7.40 to 6.70 reduced Po by 30%. Addition of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKAc; 20 U/ml) and 100 microM [corrected] MgATP to the bath increased Po from 0.12 to 0.49 at 0 mV and shifted the voltage dependence curve of channel activity toward more positive potentials by 40 mV. Two exponentials were required to fit both the open-time and the closed-time histograms. Addition of PKAc increased the long open-time constant and shortened the long closed-time constant. In conclusion, PKA-mediated phosphorylation plays an important role in the regulation of the voltage dependence of the hyperpolarization-activated K+ channel in the basolateral membrane of CCD. 相似文献

The general unireactant modifier mechanism in the absence of product can be described by the following linked reactions: E + S k1 in equilibrium k-1 ES k3----E + P; E + I k5 in equilibrium k-5 EI; EI + S k2 in equilibrium k-2 ESI k4----EI + P; and ES + I k6 in equilibrium k-6 ESI where S is a substrate and I is an effector. A full steady state treatment yields a velocity equation that is second degree in both [S] and [I]. Two different conditions (or assumptions) permit reduction of the velocity equation to one that is first degree in [S] and [I]. These are (a) that k-2k3 = k-1k4 (Frieden, C., J. Biol. Chem. 239, pp. 3522-3531, (1964)) and (b) that the I-binding reactions are at equilibrium (Reinhart, G. D., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 224, pp. 389-401 (1983)). It is shown that each condition gives rise to the other (i.e., if the I-binding reactions are at equilibrium, then k-2k3 must equal k-1k4 and vice-versa). If one assumes equilibrium for the I-binding steps, the velocity equation derived by the method of Cha (J. Biol. Chem. 243, pp. 820-825 (1968)) is apparently second degree in [I] (Segel, I. H., Enzyme Kinetics, p. 838, Wiley-Interscience (1975)), but reduces to a first degree equation when the relationship derived by Frieden is inserted. If one starts by assuming a single equilibrium condition for I binding, e.g., k-5[EI] = k5[E][I] or k-6[ESI] = k6[ES][I], then a traditional algebraic manipulation of the remaining steady state equations provides first degree expressions for the concentrations of all enzyme species and also discloses the Frieden relationship. 相似文献
