Affinity chromatography was used to determine the heterogeneity and orientation of plasma membrane vesicles isolated from LM fibroblasts subjected to Dounce homogenization. Two plasma membrane subfractions were obtained by Con A-Sepharose affinity chromatography of LM fibroblast plasma membranes prepared by Dounce homogenization. The desmosterol-phospholipid molar ratio, the phospholipid composition, and the phospholipid fatty acid composition were almost identical between the two fractions. However, the lipid to protein ratio was almost 2-fold greater in the nonadherent fraction A. The binding of fluorescein-concanavalin A was the same in both fractions indicating a right-side-out orientation of the vesicles. Similarly the asymmetric distribution of phosphatidylethanolamine in both membrane fractions was the same. In contrast, sialic acid content, 5′-nucleotidase activity, and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity were 47%, 3.7-fold, and 2.5-fold greater, respectively, in the nonadherent, lipid-rich fraction A. Structural properties of the two membrane fractions determined by fluorescence polarization and Arrhenius plots of trans-parinaric acid fluorescence were similar. These results indicate that concanavalin-A affinity chromatography separates two membrane fractions differing in sialic acid content, lipid content, and enzyme profile but having the same right-side-out orientation. 相似文献

Ischemia injury alters endothelial cell properties of kidney cortex: stimulation of MMP-9 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Although ischemia is the leading cause of acute renal failure in human, there is little information on the remodeling the kidney endothelium matrix during ischemic injury. In this study, we investigated the activity and expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9, in an isolated endothelial fraction following an acute in vivo reversible ischemia induced in rats by vascular clamping. Ischemia increased serum creatinine levels 1.4-fold, hallmark of acute renal failure. Isolation of the endothelial cell fraction was performed by affinity chromatography using an anti-PECAM-1 antibody. The isolated fraction was assessed by Western blotting analysis of endothelial cell markers. The positively selected fractions were enriched in the endothelial markers eNOS and PECAM-1 by 128-fold and 44-fold, respectively. Gelatin zymography showed that ischemia strongly stimulated proteolytic activity of proMMP-2 (1.8-fold), proMMP-9 (3-fold) and MMP-9 (4-fold) in the endothelial fractions. Western blot analysis indicated that TIMP-2 protein level increased by 3.2-fold in the endothelial fractions during ischemia. Surprisingly, TIMP-1 was absent from the endothelial preparations but was easily detected in the non-endothelial cells. Levels of the endocytic receptor LRP were increased by 2-fold during ischemia in the endothelial fractions. Occludin, a known in vivo MMP-9 substrate, was partly degraded in the endothelial fractions during ischemia, suggesting that the MMP-9 which was upregulated during ischemia was functional. These data suggest that ischemia in kidney could lead to the degradation of the vascular basement membrane and to increased permeability. This suggests new therapeutic approaches for ischemic pathologies by targeting MMP-9 and its regulators. 相似文献

1. Protamine-agarose and hydrophobic interaction chromatography were found to be effective in the purification of phosphoprotein phosphatase(s) (phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.16) of rat-liver. The phosphoprotein phosphatase of rat-liver cytosol were first resolved into three fractions, termed A, B and C, in order of elution from DEAE-cellulose. Whereas all fractions displayed activity towards [32P]phosphoprotamine, only fractions B and C displayed appreciable activity towards [32P]phosphopyruvate kinase. Since fraction B exhibited the most properties and the highest recovery of enzymatic activity towards [32P]phosphoprotamine and [32P]phosphopyruvate kinase, it was selected for further purification. The method developed involves sequential chromatography of fraction B on Sephadex G-200, protamineagarose, histone-agarose and then again on Sephadex G-200 as a final step. A 400-fold enrichment in the phosphoprotamine phosphatase activity of fraction B was obtained. Purified fraction B also displayed substantial phosphatase activity towards [32P]phosphopyruvate kinase and [32P]phosphohistones. An apparent molecular weight of about 250 000 was estimated for purified fraction B on a calibrated Sephadex G-200 column. The present data indicate that rat-liver cytosol contains multiple forms of phosphoprotein phosphatases and suggest a technique which might be applied for the further purification of at least fraction B. 2. In a separate approach, a combination of pentyl-agarose and protamineagarose chromatography was shown to be a conbenient method for the enrichment (up to 20-fold of phosphoprotein phosphatase activity from crude liver extracts. 相似文献

Whether 3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid (THCA) was converted into cholic acid in human skin fibroblasts was examined. THCA was incubated with subcellular fractions of cultured skin fibroblasts in the presence of NAD+, ATP, CoA, and Mg2+. The reaction products were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography after p-bromophenacyl ester derivatization. The highest specific activity was found in the light mitochondrial fraction (2.71 nmol/mg protein/h). The specific activity was about 9-fold higher than that in heavy mitochondrial fraction. The peroxisomal fraction prepared from the light mitochondrial fraction by sucrose gradient centrifugation was also able to catalyze the conversion of THCA into cholic acid. The specific activity in this fraction was a further 2.2-fold higher than that in the light mitochondrial fraction. These results suggest that cultured human skin fibroblasts are able to convert THCA into cholic acid, and that the activity exists in peroxisomes. 相似文献

Uridine--cytidine kinase from foetal and adult rat liver. Purification and study of some properties.
Partial purification of uridine--cytidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.48) from foetal rat liver by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose gives two active fractions. The first in order of elution was identified as a form specific for foetal liver. It was purified 300-fold. The second fraction was common to foetal, and adult rat liver and spleen and was purified 20-fold. The foetal fraction of the enzyme was found to be heat-sensitive and protected against inactivation by PO34- anions. The two isolated forms have different apparent Km for uridine, respectively 410 muM for the foetal form and 52 muM for the adult form. 相似文献

Lysosomes from normal rat liver were isolated by affinity chromatography using Sepharose-bound Ricinus communis agglutinins I + II. Characterization of the lysosomal fraction by marker enzymes showed--compared with the homogenate--an enrichment in: acid phosphatase and arylsulfatase about 30- to 60-fold, the tartrate-sensitive acid phosphatase about 95-fold, whereas beta-D-glucosidase, beta-D-galactosidase and sphingomyelinase showed a much higher enrichment of 170- to 260-fold. Marker enzymes for other cell organelles were not detectable. The phospholipid pattern and optical control with electron microscopy gave further indications that the isolated fractions were very rich in lysosomes. A comparison of the phospholipid compositions of plasma membranes isolated from normal rat liver and membranes from the isolated fractions of lysosomes, showed that they were quite different; in particular bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate, which we found to be a typical lysosomal phospholipid, was absent in plasma membranes. 相似文献

Comparative toxicity of the horse eosinophil peroxidase-H2O2-halide system and granule basic proteins 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Stimulated eosinophils release cytotoxic granule constituents, including eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) and a group of granule basic proteins (GBP). EPO reacts with H2O2 formed by the respiratory burst and a halide to form cytotoxic oxidants. The relative potency of the EPO-H2O2-halide system and the GBP is considered here. Horse eosinophils were induced to degranulate, the degranulation products were separated by chromatography on Sephadex G-50 and comparable volumes of the column fractions were tested for toxicity to Escherichia coli and the schistosomula of Schistosoma mansoni in the presence and absence of H2O2 and halides. Both the EPO system and GBP were toxic. However, the peak EPO fraction could be diluted 1000-fold at pH 7.0 and 5000-fold at pH 5.0, and with a 10-fold dilution at pH 7.0 incubation time could be reduced to 5 s, with retention of bactericidal activity in the presence of H2O2 and halides, whereas the peak GBP fractions diluted 10-fold had a small bactericidal effect at 1 h which increased with prolongation of incubation to 24 h. A less than 1 log fall in E. coli viable cell count was produced by the GBP fractions under all conditions as compared to total destruction (greater than 5 log fall) with the EPO system. A 1000-fold dilution of the peak EPO fraction was schistosomulocidal in the presence of H2O2 and halides, with toxicity observed at 2 h with a 10-fold dilution. In contrast, no schistosomulocidal activity was observed at 18 h with a 10-fold dilution of the GBP fractions. However, toxicity was observed with a 5- or 50-fold increase in GBP concentration with maximum toxicity observed with fractions between the two major protein peaks. Thus, under the conditions employed, the EPO-H2O2-halide system contributed to a considerably greater degree to the toxic activity of the granule components than did the GBP. 相似文献

Insulin differentially regulates protein phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity in rat hepatoma cells.
We have studied the effect of insulin stimulation on phosphotyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) activity in the well-differentiated rat hepatoma cell line Fao. PTPase activity was measured using a 32P-labeled peptide corresponding to the major site of insulin receptor autophosphorylation. Of the PTPase activity in Fao cells, 14% was in the cytosolic fraction, whereas 86% was in the particulate fraction; this latter fraction also had a 4-fold higher specific activity. Purification of the particulate fraction by lectin chromatography resulted in a 50% increase in specific activity, although this glycoprotein-rich fraction contained only 1.5% of the total activity. Both the cytosolic and particulate PTPase fractions were active toward the tyrosyl-phosphorylated insulin receptor in vitro. The activity of the particulate fraction but not the cytosolic fraction was inhibited by addition of a micromolar concentration of a phosphorylated peptide corresponding to residues 1142-1153 of the human insulin receptor sequence. By contrast, addition of the nonphosphorylated peptide even at millimolar concentration was without effect. Both PTPase fractions were inhibited by Zn+ at similar concentrations, whereas the cytosolic PTPase activity was 10-fold more sensitive to vanadate inhibition. Treatment of cells with 100 nM insulin increased PTPase activity in the particulate fraction by 40% and decreased activity in the cytosolic fraction by 35%. These effects occurred within 15 min and were half-maximal at 3-4 nM insulin. When assessed as total activity, the magnitude of the changes in PTPase activity in the particulate and cytosolic fractions could not be explained on the basis of a translocation of PTPases between the two pools.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Characterization and metabolic fate of two very-low-density lipoprotein subfractions separated by heparin-sepharose chromatography 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Human very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) have been separated into two discrete subfractions by heparin-Sepharose chromatography. The retained fraction relative to the unretained fraction is characterized by an increased cholesterol ester/triacylglycerol ratio and an increased ratio of apolipoprotein E relative to apolipoprotein C. We have subfractionated VLDL from type IV hyperlipoproteinemic subjects and characterized these subfractions with respect to (i) composition and (ii) the metabolic fate of apolipoprotein B of each subfraction. The unretained fraction accounted for an average of 42% of total VLDL in type IV subjects. A similar distribution was obtained with VLDL from Type III subjects; however, only 25% of normal VLDL is in the unretained fraction. The apolipoprotein E/apolipoprotein C ratio was 2-8-fold higher in the retained fraction. The distribution of apolipoprotein E isomorphs and the individual C apolipoproteins were similar in each fraction. Retained and unretained fractions were labelled with 125I and/or 131I and injected simultaneously into miniature pigs. Apolipoprotein B of retained fractions was catabolized at a greater rate (fractional catabolic rate = 0.98 h-1 vs. 0.54 h-1, n = 7, P less than 0.05) compared to unretained fractions. These results are consistent with the concept that reduced content of C apolipoproteins in VLDL is correlated with enhanced uptake by perfused rat livers. Apolipoprotein B from retained fractions was converted to intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL) at a greater rate, and apolipoprotein B from both fractions were converted to low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Although the unretained fraction may be the precursor of the retained fraction, the possibility exists that each fraction is largely synthesized and catabolized independently. 相似文献

The in vitro binding of aflatoxin B1 to rat liver cytosolic proteins was investigated. Aflatoxin B1 binding activity was assayed with protein purified by gel permeation chromatography, ammonium sulfate fractionation, and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Twenty-five percent of the total binding activity was associated with proteins eluted by 0 and 0.1 M NaCl. Over 50% of the total binding activity was associated with protein present in the 0.2 M NaCl fraction. Glutathione S-transferase activity was also monitored and found only in the low salt (less than 0.2 M NaCl) fractions. The proteins eluted by 0.2 M NaCl were further purified by hydroxylapatite column chromatography and binding was found predominantly in a single fraction. The protein purification steps resulted in a 20-fold increase in the specific binding activity over that initially observed in the cytosol. These results indicate that multiple proteins are capable of binding aflatoxin B1 in rat liver cytosol. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) deficiency decreased by 8-fold the activity of type 1 iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase (ID-I) in hepatic microsomal fractions from rats. Solubilized hepatic microsomes from rats injected with 75Se-labelled Na2SeO3 4 days before killing were found by chromatography on agarose gels to contain a 75Se-containing fraction with ID-I activity. PAGE of this fraction under reducing conditions, followed by autoradiography, revealed a single 75Se-containing protein (Mr 27,400 +/- 300). This protein could also be labelled with 125I-bromoacetyl reverse tri-iodothyronine, an affinity label for ID-I. The results suggest that hepatic ID-I is a selenoprotein or has an Se-containing subunit essential for activity. 相似文献

Three peaks of protein phosphatase (phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.16) activity (fractions a, b and c) acting on muscle phosphorylase (1,4-alpha-D-glucan:orthophosphate alpha-D-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.1) were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of yeast extracts. In contrast to fractions a and b, only fraction c was able to liberate phosphate from 32P-labelled inactivated yeast phosphorylase. The activity of fraction c on both substrates was totally dependent on the presence of bivalent metal ions (Mg2+, Mn2+), and was activated by Mg . ATP. Following freezing in the presence of mercaptoethanol, fractions a and b were also able to dephosphorylate yeast phosphorylase. Rabbit muscle phosphoprotein phosphatase inhibitors 1 and 2 showed that yeast phosphatases acting on muscle phosphorylase were inhibited by inhibitor 2 but not by inhibitor 1. The action of fraction c on yeast phosphorylase was not inhibited by either inhibitor. The native yeast phosphorylase phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.17) was purified 8000-fold by ion-exchange chromatography, casein-Sepharose chromatography and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The purified enzyme was unable to dephosphorylate rabbit muscle phosphorylase a, but acted on casein phosphate (Km 3.3 mg/ml). Molecular weight was estimated to be 78 000 and pH optimum 6.5-7.5. Activity of the enzyme was dependent on bivalent metal ions (Mg2+, Mn2+) and was inhibited by fluoride (Ki 20 mM) and succinate (Ki 10 mM). 相似文献

Purified lactotetraosylceramide (Gal beta 1----3GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc1-Cer) was tested for its ability to accept [14C]sialic acid from CMP-[14C]sialic into monosialoganglioside fractions in the presence of membrane fractions purified from human colorectal carcinoma cells (SW1116). Membrane fractions were isolated by three different methods: sucrose density centrifugation, CMP-agarose gel column chromatography, and LcOse4 gel chromatography. We optimized the incubation conditions for detergent dependency (taurocholate), pH (6.3), and acceptor concentration. The sialyltransferase activity was dependent on membrane protein and linear for time up to at least 4 h. The LcOse4 affinity chromatography of the crude microsomal membrane pellet from these cells yielded a membrane fraction that was 136-fold enriched in LcOse4 acceptor specific activity compared to cell homogenates. The apparent Km for the sialyltransferase activity with LcOse4Cer acceptor in the presence of affinity-purified membranes was 20 microM and the Vmax was 7 pmol h-1 (100 micrograms of protein)-1. Acceptor capabilities of other core structures were 5-20-fold lower: LcOse4Cer much greater than GgOse4Cer greater than nLcOse4Cer much greater than GbOse4Cer. The enzymatic activity was purified further (900-fold) by a combination of LcOse4 and CMP affinity gels. SDS-PAGE electrophoresis of this material showed a major set of closely migrating bands of Mr 58,000-54,000 compared to authentic proteins, as well as a minor band at 27,000. We analyzed picomole quantities of the radioactive product by convenient controlled short-term hydrolyses with an endoglycoceramidase and sialidases (from four different sources) in comparison to sialylated tetrasaccharides of known structure.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Abstract A factor showing inhibitory activity against human gingival fibrolasts was extracted from the cytosol fraction of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4. The activity markedly inhibited the proliferation of human gingival fibrolasts, but had no effect on cell viability or gross morphology. No such activity was found in cytosol fractions from either Porphyromonas gingivalis 381 or Escherichia coli HB101. The extract from A. actinomycetemcomitans Y4 was then purified by anion-exchange chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography and gel-filtration chromatography to give a single band on SDS-PAGE with an apparent molecular mass of 65 kDa. The purification ratio was 183-fold with a recovery rate of 5% compared with the crude extract (starting material) when the activity was assessed by direct cell counts. 相似文献

Characterization of NADH kinase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
At least two enzymes that phosphorylate diphosphopyridine nucleotides were detected in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: NADH-specific kinase was localized exclusively in the mitochondria, and NAD+-specific kinase was distributed in the microsomal and cytosol fractions but not in the mitochondria. The identity of NAD+ kinase detected in the two fractions remains equivocal. NADH kinase was highly purified 1,041-fold from the mitochondrial fraction. The Km values for NADH and ATP were 105 microM and 2.1 mM, respectively. The relative molecular mass was estimated to be 160,000 by means of molecular sieve chromatography. From inactivation studies with SH inhibitors and protection by NADH, it was demonstrated that a cysteine residue is involved in the binding site of NADH. 相似文献

The affinity chromatography of Human crude beta-interferon preparations on Blue Dextran Sepharose columns resulted in isolation of several fractions with different ratio of antiviral to antiproliferative activities. The results of investigation of two of these fractions are described in this report. The first of them was eluted by 1N NaCl in 0.01 M tris buffer at pH 7.8, the second was eluted by 1 M NaCl, 50% methylethylenglycol in 0.01 M tris-HCl buffer at pH 7.8. The first of the fractions possessed presumably antiproliferative and the second presumably antiviral activity. Both fractions induced the increase of 2'5'-oligoadenylatesynthetase activity in cells although the inducing activity of the first fraction was about 6-fold higher than that of the second one as compared with their antiviral activities. The obtained results indicate that purification of interferon preparation for interferons main antiviral activity may lead to the loss of the great part of antiproliferative material. 相似文献

alpha-Amylase from germinating tubers of a yam Dioscorea dumetorum was extracted and purified by four steps of purification. A total yield of 23.1% was obtained with over 1,600-fold increase in specific activity. Three distinct amylolytically active protein forms were resolved upon treatment of the preparation on DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography at pH 8.3. All the partially purified alpha-amylase fractions have similar physical properties with respect to pH optimum, Km values, molecular weights, and energies of activation. Qualitative paper chromatographic analysis of the alpha-amylase-amylose digest revealed variable product specificity for the three alpha-amylase fractions. One form exhibited a dual product specificity for the formation of maltose and maltohexaose, while another form produced exclusively maltopentaose from polysaccharide substrates. The third amylase fraction showed usual action pattern characteristic of most alpha-amylases. 相似文献

A high-molecular-weight (250 000) bile salt hydrolase (cholylglycine hydrolase, EC 3.5.-.-) was isolated and purified 128-fold from the "spheroplast lysate" fraction prepared from Bacteroids fragilis subsp. fragilis ATCC 25285. The intact enzyme had a molecular weight of approx. 250 000 as determined by gel infiltration chromatography. One major protein band, corresponding to a molecular weight of 32 500, was observed on 7% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of pooled fractions from DEAE-cellulose column chromatography (128-fold purified). The pH optimum for the 64-fold purified enzyme isolated from Bio-Gel A 1.5 M chromatography was 4.2 and bile salt hydrolase activity measured in intact cell suspensions had a pH optimum of 4.5. Substrate specificity studies indicated that taurine and glycine conjugates of cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid were readily hydrolyzed; however, lithocholic acid conjugates were not hydrolyzed. Substrate saturation kinetics were biphasic with an intermediate plateau (0.2--0.3 mM) and a complete loss of enzymatic activity was observed at high concentration for certain substrates. The presence or absence of 7-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was absolutely correlated with that of bile salt hydrolase activity in six to ten strains and subspecies of B. fragilis. 相似文献

To investigate the regulatory mechanism of 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20 alpha-HSD) (EC 1.1.1.149) activity in ovarian tissue, the enzyme was purified from ovaries of normal mature female rats. Column chromatography of the cytosolic fraction from ovaries on DEAE-Toyopearl 650M revealed two peaks of the 20 alpha-HSD activity at different ionic strengths. These peaks were designated HSD1 and HSD2, respectively. Each of the active fractions was further purified to homogeneity by dye-affinity chromatography using Matrex Green A and AF Red-Toyopearl. Both the fractions appeared as a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (at Mr = 33,000 under reducing conditions). Under non-reducing conditions, similar values were obtained on gel-exclusion HPLC, indicating that the enzyme fractions were single-stranded, monomeric polypeptides. Homogeneous HSD1 and HSD2 were purified 361-fold and 509-fold, respectively, and differed in their substrate preference. The two enzyme fractions had Km values of 4.75 microM and 5.16 microM for 20 alpha-dihydroprogesterone, respectively, and showed almost the same RF values on reverse-phase HPLC and free-zone capillary electrophoresis. However, amino acid composition was slightly different, i.e. lysin content was higher in HSD1 than HSD2. Thus, it was clarified that two types of 20 alpha-HSD with very similar molecular structures are present in the rat ovary. 相似文献
