Phytases catalyze the release of phosphate from phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate) to inositol polyphosphates. Raoultella terrigena comb.nov. phytase activity is known to increase markedly after cells reach the stationary phase. In this study, phytase activity measurements made on single batch cultures indicated that specific enzyme activity was subject to catabolite repression. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) showed a positive effect in expression during exponential growth and a negative effect during stationary phase. RpoS exhibited the opposite effect during both growth phases; the induction to stationary phase decreased twofold in the rpoS::Tn10 mutant, but the effect of RpoS was not clearly determined. Two phy::MudI1734 mutants, MW49 and MW52, were isolated. These formed small colonies in comparison with the MW25 parent strain when plated on Luria-Bertani (LB) or LB supplemented with glucose. They did not grow in minimal media or under anaerobiosis, but did grow aerobically on LB and LB glucose at a lower rate than did MW25. The beta-galactosidase activity level in these mutants increased three to four fold during stationary growth in LB glucose and during anaerobiosis. Addition of cAMP during the exponential growth of MW52 on LB glucose provoked a decrease in beta-galactosidase activity during the stationary phase, confirming its negative effect on phytase expression during stationary growth.  相似文献

Summary Bakers' yeast has been grown on a medium containing 1% glucose in aerobic conditions. The fermentation exhibited five phases, lag, fermentative growth, transition, growth on ethanol and stationary phase. Samples were taken during each phase and analysed for the levels of a selection of intermediary metabolites. The levels of ATP, AMP, glucose 6-phosphate, fructose 1,6- diphosphate, 6-phosphogluconate, citrate and glyoxylate showed differences in the different phases of the fermentation and can be used as indicators of metabolic state, whereas ADP, triose phosphates, fructose 6-phosphate, 2-phosphoglycerate and oxalacetate did not show much variation and were less useful as metabolic indicators.  相似文献

The involvement of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP) in the regulation of the cell cycle was studied by determining intracellular fluctuations in cAMP levels in synchronized HeLa cells and by testing the effects of experimentally altered levels on cell cycle traverse. Cyclic AMP levels were lowest during mitosis and were highest during late G-1 or early S phase. These findings were supported by results obtained when cells were accumulated at these points with Colcemid or high levels of thymidine. Additional fluctuations in cAMP levels were observed during S phase. Two specific effects of cAMP on cell cycle traverse were found. Elevation of cAMP levels in S phase or G-2 caused arrest of cells in G-2 for as long as 10 h and lengthened M. However, once cells reached metaphase, elevation of cAMP accelerated the completion of mitosis. Stimulation of mitosis was also observed after addition of CaCl2. The specificity of the effects of cAMP was verified by demonstrating that: (a) intracellular cAMP was increased after exposure to methylisobutylxanthine (MIX) before any observed effects on cycle traverse; (b) submaximal concentrations of MIX potentiated the effects of isoproterenol; and (c) effects of MIX and isoproterenol were mimicked by 8-Br-cAMP. MIX at high concentrations inhibited G-1 traverse, but this effect did not appear to be mediated by cAMP. Isoproterenol slightly stimulated G-1 traverse and partially prevented the MIX-induced delay. Moreover, low concentrations of 8-Br-cAMP (0.10-100 muM) stimulated G-1 traverse, whereas high concentrations (1 mM) inhibited. Both of these effects were also observed with the control, Br-5'-AMP, at 10-fold lower concentrations.  相似文献

The effects of sodium alpha-tocopherol phosphate (TPNa), a new vitamin E derivative, on cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases from a soluble supernatant fraction of rat liver were investigated. TPNa produced a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP hydrolysis at a low substrate concentration (1 muM cyclic AMP), whereas the compound inhibited the hydrolytic activity at a high substrate level (100 muM cyclic AMP). Cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was suppressed by TPNa regardless of the substrate concentration. The addition of TPNa did not change the apparent Km value (50 muM) of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase at low substrate level (less than 5 muM). In contrast, at higher substrate concentration, the concave downward curve observed in a Lineweaver-Burk plot became straight in the presence of TPNa. Low concentrations of cyclic GMP, which are known to activate cyclic AMP hydrolysis, showed an additive effect on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase only when a submaximal concentration of cyclic GMP was present in addition to TPNa. These and other data suggest that TPNa modifies cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in all allosteric fashion.  相似文献

Cryptococcus albidus secretes a xylanase when induced by xylan or beta-methylxyloside, a non-metabolizable inducer, and production of the enzyme is repressed by xylose. The effect of exogenous cAMP on xylanase production was tested under different growth conditions. The cAMP elicited a 1.5 to 2 fold increase in xylanase production during the induction by xylan and B-methylxyloside but did not relieve the repression observed during growth on xylose. Cyclic AMP also affected the growth rate of the cells and did not modulate the activity of pure xylanase in vitro. A 15-nucleotide sequence located upstream from the xylanase gene could be part of a cAMP regulatory sequence.  相似文献

Dibutyryl cAMP and IL 1 were found to stimulate antigen-specific and polyclonal antibody production when added together to cultures of highly purified B cells. We propose that IL 1 and an elevation in cytoplasmic cAMP represent minimal signal requirements for B cell activation. In contrast to its effect on B cells, dibutyryl cAMP inhibited helper T cell activity. Cyclic AMP suppressed the production of IL 2 and T cell replacing factor (TRF) by T cells and thus abrogated the ability of helper T cells to enhance SRBC-specific antibody production by B cells. Cyclic AMP did not inhibit the generation by T cells of B cell growth factor (BCGF). BCGF, not normally detected in Con A supernatant, was found in the culture supernatant of spleen cells that were stimulated with Con A in the presence of cAMP. Our findings indicate that cAMP blocks the production of an inhibitor of BCGF activity. cAMP had no effect on the production by macrophages of IL 1.  相似文献

Cyclic AMP is a second messenger for various hormones that inhibits cell multiplication and DNA synthesis in cultured astrocytes. We examined the effects of increasing intracellular cyclic AMP on the catalytic (cdks) and regulatory (cyclins and ckis) components of cyclin-dependent protein kinases, which regulate progression of the cell cycle before completion of DNA synthesis, in primary cultured astrocytes and in an astrocytic cell line C.LT.T.1.1. The amount of cdk4 changed little during the cell cycle and was not affected by cyclic AMP. There was little cdk1 and cdk2 in quiescent cells, and their expression increased during the G1-S phases. Cyclic AMP strongly inhibited cdk1 and cdk2 expression. Transforming growth factor beta also inhibited cdk1 expression in primary astrocytes. Cyclic AMP did not affect the two ckis p27KIP1 and p21CIP1. There was little cyclin D1 in quiescent cells, but it increased during the G1 phase and was reduced by cyclic AMP. Cyclin E increased during the G1-S phases and was not affected by cyclic AMP in primary astrocytes. The amount of cyclin A was low in quiescent cells and increased during the G1-S phases. Expression of its mRNA and protein was inhibited by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase activities associated with complexes of cyclins and cdks were increased by growth factors and prevented by cyclic AMP. We conclude that cyclic AMP inhibits progression of the cell cycle in astrocytes at least by preventing the expression of the regulatory subunits, cyclins D1 and A, and catalytic subunits, cdk1 and cdk2, of cyclin-regulated protein kinases.

Human prostate secretory epithelial cells have the uniquely specialized function of accumulating and secreting extremely high levels of citrate. This is achieved by their ability to accumulate high cellular levels of zinc that inhibit citrate oxidation. This process of net citrate production requires unique metabolic/bioenergetic mitochondrial relationships. In prostate cancer, the malignant cells undergo a metabolic transformation from zinc-accumulating citrate-producing sane cells to citrate-oxidizing malignant cells that lost the ability to accumulate zinc. This review describes the metabolic/bioenergetic, zinc and mitochondrial relationships involved in normal and malignant prostate. Hopefully, this report will generate much needed interest and research in this neglected, but critically important, area of investigation.  相似文献

Dividing neuroendocrine cells differentiate into a neuronal-like phenotype in response to ligands activating G protein-coupled receptors, leading to the elevation of the second messenger cAMP. Growth factors that act at receptor tyrosine kinases, such as nerve growth factor, also cause differentiation. We report here that two aspects of cAMP-induced differentiation, neurite extension and growth arrest, are dissociable at the level of the sensors conveying the cAMP signal in PC12 and NS-1 cells. Following cAMP elevation, neuritogenic cyclic AMP sensor/Rapgef2 is activated for signaling to ERK to mediate neuritogenesis, whereas Epac2 is activated for signaling to the MAP kinase p38 to mediate growth arrest. Neither action of cAMP requires transactivation of TrkA, the receptor for NGF. In fact, the differentiating effects of NGF do not require activation of any of the cAMP sensors protein kinase A, Epac, or neuritogenic cyclic AMP sensor/Rapgef2 but, rather, depend on ERK and p38 activation via completely independent signaling pathways. Hence, cAMP- and NGF-dependent signaling for differentiation are also completely insulated from each other. Cyclic AMP and NGF also protect NS-1 cells from serum withdrawal-induced cell death, again by two wholly separate signaling mechanisms, PKA-dependent for cAMP and PKA-independent for NGF.  相似文献

The effect of the endogenous protein activator on the kinetic characteristics of a highly purified, activator-deficient rat brain phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.-) of a highly purified, activator-deficient rat brain phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4-) was studied. This enzyme preparation has only a high Km for cyclic AMP and a low Km for cyclic GMP. In the presence of 20 muM Ca2+, saturating concentrations of the activator decreased the Km of this enzyme for cyclic AMP from 350 muM to about 80 muM, without changing the V. The phosphodiesterase activator did not change the Km of phosphodiesterase for cyclic GMP; however, amoderate increase of V was seen. The activator lacks species specificity; the activator isolated from the bullfrog sympathetic chain produced the same qualitative and comparable quantitative changes in the kinetic properties of the purified rat brain phosphodiesterase. Cyclic GMP is a potent competitive inhibitor of the phosphodiesterase activation by the activator (Ki=1.8 muM), using cyclic AMP as a substrate. Cyclic AMP inhibits slightly the hydrolysis of cyclic GMP by phosphodiesterase in the presence of activator (Ki=155 muM) only.  相似文献

Measurement of the flux through the citrate fermentation pathway in resting cells of Lactococcus lactis CRL264 grown in a pH-controlled fermentor at different pH values showed that the pathway was constitutively expressed, but its activity was significantly enhanced at low pH. The flux through the citrate-degrading pathway correlated with the magnitude of the membrane potential and pH gradient that were generated when citrate was added to the cells. The citrate degradation rate and proton motive force were significantly higher when glucose was metabolized at the same time, a phenomenon that could be mimicked by the addition of lactate, the end product of glucose metabolism. The results clearly demonstrate that citrate metabolism in L. lactis is a secondary proton motive force-generating pathway. Although the proton motive force generated by citrate in cells grown at low pH was of the same magnitude as that generated by glucose fermentation, citrate metabolism did not affect the growth rate of L. lactis in rich media. However, inhibition of growth by lactate was relieved when citrate also was present in the growth medium. Citrate did not relieve the inhibition by other weak acids, suggesting a specific role of the citrate transporter CitP in the relief of inhibition. The mechanism of citrate metabolism presented here provides an explanation for the resistance to lactate toxicity. It is suggested that the citrate metabolic pathway is induced under the acidic conditions of the late exponential growth phase to make the cells (more) resistant to the inhibitory effects of the fermentation product, lactate, that accumulates under these conditions.  相似文献

Ecdysterone decreased cellular growth and the incorporation of uridine into RNA following 4 days of hormone exposure. This hormone did not affect uridine incorporation following short-term exposure up to 25 hours. Juvenile hormone and farnesol both significantly decreased uridine uptake and incorporation into RNA; however, uridine uptake was inhibited to a greater extent than uridine incorporation. Cyclic AMP increased the incorporation of uridine into RNA but had no demonstrable effect on the uptake process. This stimulation was not the result of cAMP degradation products. Cyclic AMP and ecdysterone together produced a significant increase in uridine incorporation into RNA. These studies demonstrate the potential utilization of insect cell lines for studying the mode of action of insect developmental hormones.  相似文献

To explain the requirement for anaerobic conditions in the induction of biodegradative L-threonine dehydratase in Escherichia coli, Crookes strain, measurements of cyclic AMP (cAMP) were made during aerobic and anaerobic growth and upon an aerobic-to-anaerobic transition. Internal cAMP levels were similar (5 to 10 muM) throughout exponential growth, whether aerobic or anaerobic, but only during anaerobiosis was threonine dehydratase synthesized. When an exponentially growing aerobic culture was made anaerobic, a sharp increase in internal cAMP was noted, reaching 300 muM within 10 min and declining thereafter to normal anaerobic levels. Threonine dehydratase synthesis was detected immediately after the attainment of peak cAMP levels and continued for several generations. A similar pattern but with less accumulation of cAMP and less threonine dehydratase production was also noted upon treatment of an aerobically growing culture with KCN. Pyruvate addition at the time of anaerobic shock severely affected both cAMP accumulation and threonine dehydratase synthesis; however, externally added cAMP could partially counter the pyruvate effect on enzyme synthesis. The conclusion was reached that conditions which resulted in a temporary energy deficit brought about the major accumulation of cAMP, and this elevated level served as a signal for initiation of threonine dehydratase synthesis to supply energy by the nonoxidative degradation of threonine.  相似文献

A dense suspension of Spirulina platensis trichomes aggregatedrapidly and formed a diskshaped algal mat when cAMP was added.Cyclic AMP significantly stimulated algal mat formation at concentrationsas low as 10–7 M. Stimulation of the mat formation wasmost rapid at about 10–5M cAMP, but higher concentrationswere not increasingly effective. Other nucleotides such as cGMP,ATP and AMP showed no stimulatory effect on algal mat formation.CCCP, an inhibitor of ATP synthesis, was found to suppress thecAMP-stimulated algal mat formation. Cyclic AMP also stimulatedrespiration and gliding movement of this cyanobacterium. (Received September 2, 1991; Accepted October 15, 1991)  相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activities of baby hamster kidney cells (BHK) grown in surface cultures were altered by modifying growth conditions. The untransformed BHK cells grown in medium containing 10% fetal calf serum showed non-linear LineweaverBurk plots for cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity with apparent Michaelis constants for cyclic AMP of approximately 5 and 30 muM. When these cells were placed in medium containing 1% fetal calf serum, linear kinetic plots for cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase with an apparent Km for cyclic AMP of approximately 20 muM were obtained. Modification of the apparent Km of BHK cell phosphodiesterase was detectable within 20 minutes after dillution of cells grown in 10% serum into fresh medium containing 1% serum. With the BHK cell line transformed with Rous sarcoma virus, differences in enzyme kinetics were not seen when these cells were diluted in 1% or 10% serum. In addition to the serum induced differences in the apparent Km of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases of BHK cells, total cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities were also modified by growth conditions. BHK cells grown to high cell densities had three to five-fold higher total cyclic AMP activity than did the cells in less dense cultures. When the dense cell cultures were diluted into fresh medium containing 10% serum, total enzyme activities fell to levels comparable to those found in the rapidly growing cells at low cell densities. The reduction in total enzyme activity after dilution of BHK cells occurred rapidly and was influenced by cell density. A similar reduction of total enzyme activity was also seen in diluted RSV cells; however, the time course of the response differed from that seen in the untransformed cells.  相似文献

Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities (3' : 5'-cyclic AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) were demonstrated in the isolated intima, media, and adventitia of rabbit aorta. The activity for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the intima was 2.7-fold higher than that for cyclic GMP hydrolysis. The activity for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the media was approximately equal to that for cyclic GMP hydrolysis, but in the adventitia, cyclic GMP hydrolytic activity was 2.1-fold higher than cyclic AMP hydrolytic activity. Distribution of the activator of the phosphodiesterase was studied in the three layers. Each layer contained the activator. The activator was predominantly localized in the smooth muscle layer (the media). The effect of the activator and Ca2+ on the media cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was also briefly studied. The activity of the cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase was stimulated by micromolar concentration of Ca2+ in the presence of the activator. However, the activity of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was not significantly stimulated by Ca2+ up to 100 muM in the presence of the activator. Above 90% of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity in the whole aorta was found to be derived from the media. A major portion (60-70%) of the media enzyme was found in 105 000 times g supernatant. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in the supernatant was partially purified through Sepharose 6B column chromatography and partially separated from cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase. Using a partially purified preparation from the 105 000 times g supernatant the main kinetic parameters were specified as follows: 1) The pH optimum was found to be about 9.0 using Tris-maleate buffer. The maximum stimulation of the enzyme by Mg2+ was achieved at 4mM of MgC12. 2) High concentration of cyclic GMP (0.1 mM) inhibited noncompetitively the enzyme activity, and the activity was not stimulated at any tested concentration of cyclic GMP. 3) Activity-substrate concentration relationship revealed a high affinity (Km equals 1.0 muM) and low affinity (Km equals 45 muM) for cyclic AMP. The homogenate and 105 000 times g supernatant of the media also showed non-linear kinetics similar to the Sepharose 6B preparation and their apparent Km values for cyclic AMP hydrolysis were 1.2 muM and 36-40 muM and an enzyme extracted by sonication from 105 000 times g precipitate also exhibited non-linear kinetics (Km equals 5.1 muM and 70 muM). 4) Papaverine exhibited much stronger inhibition on the aorta cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (50% inhibition of the intima enzyme, I5 o at 0.62 muM, I5 o of the media at 0.62 muM and I5 o of the adventitia at 1.0 muM) than on the brain (I5 o at 8.5 muM) and serum (I5 o at 20 muM) cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, while theophylline inhibited these enzymes similarly. However, cyclic GMP phosphodiesterases in all tissues examined were inhibited similarly, not only by theophylline but also by papaverine.  相似文献
