Peptide maps were generated of the CNBr-digested mitochondrial phosphate-transport protein and ADP/ATP carrier from bovine and rat heart, rat liver and blowfly flight muscle. Total mitochondrial proteins from the same sources plus pig heart were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The peptide maps and the total mitochondrial proteins were electroblotted onto nitrocellulose membranes and reacted with rabbit antisera raised against the purified bovine heart phosphate-transport protein and the ADP/ATP carrier. On the basis of antibody specificity, mobility in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and peptide maps the following was concluded. (1) Phosphate-transport protein and phosphate-transport protein β (pig and bovine heart) react equally with the first and also with the second of two independent phosphate-transport protein-antisera. (2) Tissue-specific structural domains exist for both the phosphate-transport protein and the ADP/ATP carrier, i.e., one phosphate-transport protein-antiserum reacts with the phosphate-transport protein from all assayed sources, the other only with the cardiac phosphate-transport protein. These differences may reflect tissue-specific regulation of phosphate and adenine nucleotide transport. (3) Homologies among the different species are found for the phosphate transport protein and the ADP/ATP carrier, except for the flight muscle ADP/ATP carrier. These conserved structural domains of the phosphate-transport protein may relate directly to catalytic activity. (4) Alkylation of the purified phosphate-transport proteins and the ADP/ATP carriers by the transport inhibitor N-ethylmaleimide affects electrophoretic mobilities but not the antibody binding. (5) Neither of the two phosphate-transport protein-antisera nor the ADP/ATP-carrier antiserum react with both phosphate transport protein and ADP/ATP carrier, even though these two proteins possess similarities in primary structure and function. Possible mechanisms for generating tissue-specific structural differences in the proteins are discussed. 相似文献

Bcl-xL prevents cell death following growth factor withdrawal by facilitating mitochondrial ATP/ADP exchange 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
Growth factor withdrawal is associated with a metabolic arrest that can result in apoptosis. Cell death is preceded by loss of outer mitochondrial membrane integrity and cytochrome c release. These mitochondrial events appear to follow a relative increase in mitochondrial membrane potential. This change in membrane potential results from the failure of the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT)/voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) complex to maintain ATP/ADP exchange. Bcl-xL expression allows growth factor-deprived cells to maintain sufficient mitochondrial ATP/ADP exchange to sustain coupled respiration. These data demonstrate that mitochondrial adenylate transport is under active regulation. Efficient exchange of ADP for ATP is promoted by Bcl-xL expression permitting oxidative phosphorylation to be regulated by cellular ATP/ADP levels and allowing mitochondria to adapt to changes in metabolic demand. 相似文献

Mitochondrial phosphate transport. Import of the H+/Pi symporter and role of the presequence 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The rat liver mitochondrial phosphate transporter contains a 44-amino acid presequence. The role of this presequence is not clear since the ADP/ATP carrier and the brown fat uncoupling protein, related members of a family of inner membrane anion transporters, lack a presequence and contain targeting information within the mature protein. Here, we present evidence that the rat liver mitochondrial phosphate transporter can be synthesized in vitro, imported into mitochondria, and processed to a protein of Mr 33,000. Import requires the membrane potential and external nucleotide triphosphate. The presequence inserts into the outer mitochondrial membrane, and import proceeds via a process similar to other proteins destined for the inner membrane or matrix. A mutant phosphate transporter lacking 35 amino acids at the NH2 terminus of the presequence has little capacity for mitochondrial import. The rat liver phosphate transporter is also imported and processed by rat kidney mitochondria and by mitochondria from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A site-directed mutation of the N-ethyl-maleimide reactive cysteine 41 does not affect import or processing. The results presented show that optimal import of the mitochondrial phosphate transporter, unlike the ADP/ATP carrier and the brown fat uncoupling protein, is dependent on a presequence. As these carriers are believed to have evolved from a single gene, it seems likely that the H+/Pi carrier, known to be present in prokaryotes, appeared first and that subsequent evolutionary events leading to the other anion carriers eliminated the presequence. 相似文献

The effect of thyroid-hormone application on cytosolic and mitochondrial ATP/ADP ratio was investigated in rat liver in vivo and in the isolated perfused organ. In vivo the ATP/ADP ratio in livers from hypothyroid rats was 0.84 +/- 0.08 in the mitochondrial matrix and 5.6 +/- 0.9 in the cytosol, as was observed in euthyroid controls. In contrast, hyperthyroidism was followed by a significant decrease in the mitochondrial and by an increase in the cytosolic ATP/ADP ratio (to 0.34 +/- 0.06 and 11.3 +/- 2.8 respectively). In the perfused liver from hypothyroid animals, addition of L-3,3',5-tri-iodothyronine in the perfusate also provoked, within 2 h, a significant decrease in the mitochondrial ATP/ADP ratio, whereas the cytosolic ratio was unaffected. From these and previous data in the isolated perfused liver and in isolated mitochondria from hypothyroid and tri-iodothyronine-treated rats it is concluded that thyroid hormones increase mitochondrial respiration and ATP regeneration, which is associated with an acceleration of mitochondrial adenine nucleotide transport and significant alterations in the mitochondrial and cytosolic ATP/ADP ratios. 相似文献

A novel method exploiting the differential affinity of ADP and ATP to Mg2+ was developed to measure mitochondrial ADP-ATP exchange rate. The rate of ATP appearing in the medium after addition of ADP to energized mitochondria, is calculated from the measured rate of change in free extramitochondrial [Mg2+] reported by the membrane-impermeable 5K+ salt of the Mg2+-sensitive fluorescent indicator, Magnesium Green, using standard binding equations. The assay is designed such that the adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) is the sole mediator of changes in [Mg2+] in the extramitochondrial volume, as a result of ADP-ATP exchange. We also provide data on the dependence of ATP efflux rate within the 6.8-7.8 matrix pH range as a function of membrane potential. Finally, by comparing the ATP-ADP steady-state exchange rate to the amount of the ANT in rat brain synaptic, brain nonsynaptic, heart and liver mitochondria, we provide molecular turnover numbers for the known ANT isotypes. 相似文献

Identification of monocarboxylate transporter 8 as a specific thyroid hormone transporter 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Transport of thyroid hormone across the cell membrane is required for its action and metabolism. Recently, a T-type amino acid transporter was cloned which transports aromatic amino acids but not iodothyronines. This transporter belongs to the monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) family and is most homologous with MCT8 (SLC16A2). Therefore, we cloned rat MCT8 and tested it for thyroid hormone transport in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Oocytes were injected with rat MCT8 cRNA, and after 3 days immunofluorescence microscopy demonstrated expression of the protein at the plasma membrane. MCT8 cRNA induced an approximately 10-fold increase in uptake of 10 nM 125I-labeled thyroxine (T4), 3,3',5-triiodothyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3) and 3,3'-diiodothyronine. Because of the rapid uptake of the ligands, transport was only linear with time for <4 min. MCT8 did not transport Leu, Phe, Trp, or Tyr. [125I]T4 transport was strongly inhibited by L-T4, D-T4, L-T3, D-T3, 3,3',5-triiodothyroacetic acid, N-bromoacetyl-T3, and bromosulfophthalein. T3 transport was less affected by these inhibitors. Iodothyronine uptake in uninjected oocytes was reduced by albumin, but the stimulation induced by MCT8 was markedly increased. Saturation analysis provided apparent Km values of 2-5 microM for T4, T3, and rT3. Immunohistochemistry showed high expression in liver, kidney, brain, and heart. In conclusion, we have identified MCT8 as a very active and specific thyroid hormone transporter. 相似文献

Regulation of biosynthesis of the rat liver inner mitochondrial membrane by thyroid hormone 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Regulation of mitochondrial protein synthesis by thyroid hormone has been studied in isolated rat hepatocytes and liver mitochondria. Small doses (5 micrograms/100 g body wt) of triiodothyronine (T3) injected into hypothyroid rats increased both state 3 and 4 respiration by approximately 100%, while the ADP:O ratio remained constant. This suggests that T3 increases the numbers of functional respiratory chain units. T3 also induces mitochondrial protein synthesis by 50-100%. Analysis of the mitochondrial translation products show that all of the products were induced. No differential translation of the peptides involved in the respiratory chain was found. Regulation of the cytoplasmically made inner membrane peptides was also investigated in isolated hepatocytes. The majority of these peptides were not influenced by T3, in contrast to the finding with mitochondrial translation products. Those found to be regulated by T3 belong to two subsets, which were either induced or repressed by hormone. Thus, T3 stimulated a general increase in the synthesis of mitochondrially translated inner membrane peptides, but regulates selectively those inner membrane peptides translated on cytoplasmic ribosomes. The findings suggest that hormone regulation of the respiratory chain is exerted through a few selective proteins, perhaps those which require subunits made from both nuclear and mitochondrial genes. 相似文献

Adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT), a mitochondrial protein that facilitates the exchange of ADP and ATP across the mitochondrial inner membrane, plays an essential role in cellular energy metabolism. Human ANT presents four isoforms (ANT1-4), each with a specific expression depending on the nature of the tissue, cell type, developmental stage and status of cell proliferation. Thus, ANT1 is specific to muscle and brain tissues; ANT2 occurs mainly in proliferative, undifferentiated cells; ANT3 is ubiquitous; and ANT4 is found in germ cells. ANT1 and ANT3 export the ATP produced by oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) from the mitochondria into the cytosol while importing ADP. In contrast, the expression of ANT2, which is linked to the rate of glycolytic metabolism, is an important indicator of carcinogenesis. In fact, cancers are characterized by major metabolic changes that switch cells from the normally dual oxidative and glycolytic metabolisms to an almost exclusively glycolytic metabolism. When OxPhos activity is impaired, ANT2 imports glycolytically produced ATP into the mitochondria. In the mitochondrial matrix, the F1F0-ATPase complex hydrolyzes the ATP, pumping out a proton into the intermembrane space. The reverse operations of ANT2 and F1F0-ATPase under glycolytic conditions contribute to maintaining the mitochondrial membrane potential, ensuring cell survival and proliferation. Unlike the ANT1 and ANT3 isoforms, ANT2 is not pro-apoptotic and may therefore contribute to carcinogenesis. Since the expression of ANT2 is closely linked to the mitochondrial bioenergetics of tumors, it should be taken into account for individualizing cancer treatments and for the development of anticancer strategies. 相似文献

The frequency of contacts between the mitochondrial envelope membranes was determined in freeze-fractured samples of isolated mitochondria by means of quantifying the frequency of fracture plane deflections between the two membranes. It was observed that the formation of contacts correlated with the concentration of free ADP despite of inhibition of electron transport by antimycin A. The activity of ATPase partially inhibited by oligomycin or depletion of membrane potential by K+ and valinomycin had no effect on the induction of the contacts by ADP. ATP was ineffective in creating contacts irrespective of the presence or absence of a membrane potential, whereas carboxyatractyloside induced the contacts under all conditions in a manner similar to ADP. These results suggest the involvement of the ATP/ADP translocator in regulation of contact sites. As a consequence, we analyzed its distribution in the inner membrane of kidney and liver mitochondria by binding of [3H]atractyloside to subfractions of this membrane. The experiments demonstrated that the translocator was located in the peripheral part of the inner membrane as well as in the portion which formed the cristae. 相似文献

The adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) mediates the exchange of ADP and ATP across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The human genome encodes multiple ANT isoforms that are expressed in a tissue-specific manner. Recently a novel germ cell-specific member of the ANT family, ANT4 (SLC25A31) was identified. Although it is known that targeted depletion of ANT4 in mice resulted in male infertility, the functional biochemical differences between ANT4 and other somatic ANT isoforms remain undetermined. To gain insight into ANT4, we expressed human ANT4 (hANT4) in yeast mitochondria. Unlike the somatic ANT proteins, expression of hANT4 failed to complement an AAC-deficient yeast strain for growth on media requiring mitochondrial respiration. Moreover, overexpression of hANT4 from a multi-copy plasmid interfered with optimal yeast growth. However, mutation of specific amino acids of hANT4 improved yeast mitochondrial expression and supported growth of the AAC-deficient yeast on non-fermentable carbon sources. The mutations affected amino acids predicted to interact with phospholipids, suggesting the importance of lipid interactions for function of this protein. Each mutant hANT4 and the somatic hANTs exhibited similar ADP/ATP exchange kinetics. These data define common and distinct biochemical characteristics of ANT4 in comparison to ANT1, 2 and 3 providing a basis for study of its unique adaptation to germ cells. 相似文献

How the myocardium is able to permanently coordinate its intracellular fluxes of ATP synthesis, transfer and utilization is difficult to investigate in the whole organ due to the cellular complexity. The adult myocardium represents a paradigm of an energetically compartmented cell since 50% of total CK activity is bound in the vicinity of other enzymes (myofibrillar sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPases as well as mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocator, ANT). Such vicinity of enzymes is well known in vitro as well as in preparations of skinned fibers to influence the kinetic properties of these enzymes and thus the functioning of the subcellular organelles. Intracellular compartmentation has often been neglected in the NMR analysis of CK kinetics in the whole organ. It is indeed a methodological challenge to reveal subcellular kinetics in a working organ by a global approach such as NMR. To get insight in the energy transfer pathway in the perfused rat heart, we developed a combined analysis of several protocols of magnetization transfer associated with biochemical data and quantitatively evaluated which scheme of energetic exchange best describes the NMR data. This allows to show the kinetic compartmentation of subcellular CKs and to quantify their fluxes. Interestingly, we could show that the energy transfer pathway shifts from the phosphocreatine shuttle in the oxygenated perfused heart to a direct ATP diffusion from mitochondria to cytosol under moderate inhibition of ATP synthesis. Furthermore using NMR measured fluxes and the known kinetic properties of the enzymes, it is possible to model the system, estimate local ADP concentrations and propose hypothesis for the versatility of energy transfer pathway. In the normoxic heart, a 3-fold ADP gradient was found between mitochondrial intermembrane space, cytosol and ADP in the vicinity of ATPases. The shift from PCr to ATP transport observed when ATP synthesis decreases might result from a balance in the activity of two populations of ANT, either coupled or uncoupled to CK. We believe this NMR approach could be a valuable tool to reinvestigate the control of respiration by ADP in the whole heart reconciling the biochemical knowledge of mitochondrial obtained in vitro or in skinned fibers with data on the whole heart as well as to identify the implication of bioenergetics in the pathological heart. 相似文献

Micromolar concentrations of arachidonic acid cause in Ca2+ loaded heart mitochondria matrix swelling and Ca2+ release. These effects appear to be unrelated to the classical membrane permeability transition (MPT), as they are CsA insensitive, membrane potential independent and can also be activated by Sr2+. Atractyloside potentiated and ATP inhibited the arachidonic acid induced swelling. These observations suggest that the ATP/ADP translocator (ANT) may be involved in the AA induced, CsA insensitive membrane permeability increase. Under the same experimental conditions used for heart mitochondria, arachidonic acid induced the classical CsA sensitive, ADP inhibitable MPT in liver mitochondria. 相似文献

Immunoelectrophoretic characterization of the ADP/ATP carrier from heart, kidney, and liver 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Earlier studies gave an indication for an organ specificity of the ADP/ATP carrier. We used a modified charge-shift crossed immunoelectrophoresis for a more precise immunochemical characterization of this detergent-solubilized hydrophobic membrane protein. Immunological differences between the carrier protein from heart, kidney, and liver were demonstrated by a different electrophoretic migration of the three ligand-protein complexes in the first dimension and a distinct staining intensity, sharpness, and shape of the precipitates in the second dimension. However, the antibodies against the heart and kidney protein showed a cross-reactivity between the three antigens. The results are consistent with the view that the ADP/ATP carrier has organ-specific antigenic determinants although there is a partial identity between the carrier proteins from heart, kidney, and liver. 相似文献

1. Effects of alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate and alpha-cyanocinnamate on a number of enzymes involved in pyruvate metabolism have been investigated. Little or no inhibition was observed of any enzyme at concentrations that inhibit completely mitochondrial pyruvate transport. At much higher concentrations (1 mM) some inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase was apparent. 2. Alpha-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate (1-100 muM) specifically inhibited pyruvate oxidation by mitochondria isolated from rat heart, brain, kidney and from blowfly flight muscle; oxidation of other substrates in the presence or absence of ADP was not affected. Similar concentrations of the compound also inhibited the carboxylation of pyruvate by rat liver mitochondria and the activation by pyruvate of pyruvate dehydrogenase in fat-cell mitochondria. These findings imply that pyruvate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase and pyruvate carboxylase are exposed to mitochondrial matrix concentrations of pyruvate rather than to cytoplasmic concentrations. 3. Studies with whole-cell preparations incubated in vitro indicate that alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate or alpha-cyanocinnamate (at concentrations below 200 muM) can be used to specifically inhibit mitochondrial pyruvate transport within cells and thus alter the metabolic emphasis of the preparation. In epididymal fat-pads, fatty acid synthesis from glucose and fructose, but not from acetate, was markedly inhibited. No changes in tissue ATP concentrations were observed. The effects on fatty acid synthesis were reversible. In kidney-cortex slices, gluconeogenesis from pyruvate and lactate but not from succinate was inhibited. In the rat heart perfused with medium containing glucose and insulin, addition of alpha-cyanocinnamate (200 muM) greatly increased the output and tissue concentrations of lactate plus pyruvate but decreased the lactate/pyruvate ratio. 4. The inhibition by cyanocinnamate derivatives of pyruvate transport across the cell membrane of human erythrocytes requires much higher concentrations of the derivatives than the inhibition of transport across the mitochondrial membrane. Alpha-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate appears to enter erythrocytes on the cell-membrane pyruvate carrier. Entry is not observed in the presence of albumin, which may explain the small effects when these compounds are injected into whole animals. 相似文献
