The distribution in liver cell fractions of UDPG-glycogen transferase has been studied. In fasting animals which have been refed 6 hours before sacrifice, the distribution of the enzyme in the various cell fractions can be correlated with the glycogen content of each fraction. A purified glycogen fraction has been prepared by differential centrifugation in sucrose gradients. This glycogen fraction contains vesicular structures which resemble those seen in association with glycogen deposits in the intact liver cell. In addition, the glycogen pellet contains UDPG-glycogen transferase in high specific activity. Subfractionation of the glycogen pellet separates the majority of vesicular elements from the bulk of transferase activity and glycogen. The evidence presented suggests that the presence of UPDG-glycogen transferase in the glycogen pellet is to be attributed to its binding to glycogen rather than to its association with the structural elements found in the glycogen fraction. 相似文献

对10株灵芝菌株发酵菌丝体生物量、胞内多糖含量、胞外粗多糖得率及其多糖含量和单糖组成特征进行了系统分析。结果表明,随着培养时间的延长,10株菌株的生物量均有不同程度增加,但不同菌株胞内多糖含量和胞外粗多糖得率变化趋势有所不同。在培养至7d时,G0023和G0160菌株胞外粗多糖得率均较高,分别为3.02g/L和3.14g/L,其多糖含量分别达到了84.11%和91.03%,可作为发酵高产胞外多糖的优良菌株。分级醇沉胞外多糖分析结果表明,各菌株胞外液20%乙醇沉淀所得20E组分的得率和多糖含量均高于50%乙醇沉淀所得的50E组分,说明胞外液中主要以大分子量多糖为主。20E主要由葡萄糖组成,含有少量木糖和甘露糖;50E主要由葡萄糖和甘露糖组成,含有少量木糖和半乳糖。胞外液表观粘度随剪切速率变化曲线分析结果显示,各菌株胞外液均呈现剪切变稀非牛顿流体特性,其表观粘度大小与菌株对应20E组分的得率及多糖含量呈正相关。 相似文献

Carbohydrate metabolism, under sporulation conditions, was compared in sporulating and non-sporulating diploids of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Total carbohydrate was fractionated into trehalose, glycogen, mannan, and an alkali-insoluble fraction composed of glucan and insoluble glycogen. The behavior of three fractions was essentially the same in both sporulating and non-sporulating strains; trehalose, mannan, and the insoluble fraction were all synthesized to about the same extent regardless of a strain's ability to undergo meiosis or sporulation. In contrast, aspects of soluble glycogen metabolism depended on sporulation. Although glycogen synthesis took place in both sporulating and non-sporulating strains, only sporulating strains exhibited a period of glycogen degradation, which coincided with the final maturation of ascospores. We also determined the carbohydrate composition of spores isolated from mature asci. Spores contained all components present in vegetative cells, but in different proportions. In cells, the most abundant carbohydrate was mannan, followed by glycogen, then trehalose, and finally the alkali-insoluble fraction; in spores, trehalose was most abundant, followed by the alkali-insoluble fraction, glycogen, and mannan in that order. 相似文献

Three enzymes, glycogen phosphorylase, glycogen synthase, and phosphoglucomutase were evaluated in subcellular fractions and in brain regions. Also the development of each of these enzymes was evaluated in whole brain homogenates. Each enzyme increased during the first three weeks of post partum in a manner that is similar to the development of glycolytic enzymes during this period. The specific activity of each enzyme in various subcellular fractions indicated that the enzymes were primarily soluble. Also unlike the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase, the glycogen metabolizing enzymes had a lower specific activity in synaptosomes than in particle free supernatant fractions of homogenates. Regarding regional distribution small (less than twofold) but significant differences were seen between different brain areas. An inverse relationship between the glycogen metabolizing enzymes and hexokinase was observed, that is, regions highest in glycogen synthase and glycogen phosphorylase were lowest in hexokinase and regions highest in hexokinase were lowest in the glycogen metabolizing enzymes. 相似文献

The dried cells of two strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus were fractionated by extracting first with water and then with organic solvents. The hemolytic activity of the fractions was determined, and some of them were assayed for their effect in mice. The hemolytic agent present in the water-insoluble fraction was extractable in organic solvents such as 70% aqueous ethanol, chloroform-methanol-water (1:2:0.8) and acetone. The extracts showed no toxic effect in mice after intraperitoneal inoculation. No hemolytic activity was observed in the remaining cell residue, which bore the toxicity. 相似文献

The outer membrane (OM) of Fibrobacter succinogenes was isolated by a combination of salt, sucrose, and water washes from whole cells grown on either glucose or cellulose. The cytoplasmic membrane (CM) was isolated from OM-depleted cells after disruption with a French press. The OM and membrane vesicles isolated from the extracellular culture fluid of cellulose-grown cells had a higher density, much lower succinate dehydrogenase activity, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis protein profiles different from those of the CM. The OM from both glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and the extracellular membrane vesicles from cellulose-grown cultures exhibited higher endoglucanase, xylanase, and acetylesterase activities than the CM and other cell fractions. Endoglucanase 2 was absent from the isolated OM fractions of glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and from the extracellular membrane vesicles of cellulose-grown cells but was present in the CM and intracellular glycogen granule fractions, while endoglucanase 3 was enriched in the OM. Cellobiosidase was located primarily in the periplasm as previously reported, while cellobiase was mainly present in the glycogen granule fraction of glucose-grown cells and in a nongranular glycogen and CM complex in cellulose-grown cells. The cellobiase was not eluted from glycogen granules by cellobiose, maltose, and maltotriose nor from either the granules or the cell membranes by nondenaturing detergents but was eluted from both glycogen granules and cell membranes by high concentrations of salts. The eluted cellobiase rebound almost quantitatively when diluted and mixed with purified glycogen granules but exhibited a low affinity for Avicel cellulose. Thus, we have documented a method for isolation of OM from F. succinogenes, identified the OM origin of the extracellular membrane vesicles, and located glycanases and cellobiase in membrane and glycogen fractions. 相似文献

A cytofluorometric study of the total glycogen and its fractions in rat liver cells using the fluorescent PAS reaction was made during 1--7 days of the postnatal development. It was established that glycogen content was small on the first two days of development. The glycogen content increases only on the third day after birth. The glycogen of the rat liver cells during a first week of the postnatal development is different from that detected in adult liver cells in two aspects: in 3 day old hepatocytes soluble and stable glycogen fractions are equal, while in adult rat liver cells the former makes 80--90%; during the first week of the postnatal development, the stable fraction of rat liver cell is more labile, while in the adult rat liver the soluble fraction of glycogen is more labiles. 相似文献

Envelope fractions isolated from Escherichia coli K-12 C600 and from colicin-resistant and colicin-tolerant (Tol II) mutants derived from this strain were separated on sucrose gradients into cell wall-enriched and cytoplasmic membrane-enriched fractions. These fractions were tested for their ability to neutralize colicins of the E and K groups. Neutralization activity was found in the cell wall-enriched fraction from the parent and the Tol II mutant but was absent from all fractions from the resistant mutant. This was also tested with several other E. coli strains. In all cases, sensitive strains contained the neutralization activity, whereas resistant strains did not. The neutralization activity was solubilized from cell walls or cell envelopes of sensitive or Tol II strains by extraction at room temperature with Triton X-100 plus ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The solubilized activity was precipitated by 20% ammonium sulfate, 70% ethanol, or 10% trichloroacetic acid. The activity was destroyed by treatment of the solubilized preparation with trypsin or periodate. These results suggest that this colicin-neutralization activity is due to the presence of specific receptors localized in the cell wall and that intact protein and a carbohydrate are required for this receptor to bind colicin. 相似文献

Abstract— –A preparative procedure for the isolation in bulk of two cellular populations of the cerebellar cortex of the immature rat, the granule cells and the Purkinje cell bodies, is described. The procedure is used to delineate the developmental pattern of succinate-INT-reduclase (EC 1.3.99.1) and acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) in the crucial period of cerebellar maturation, i.e. between 12 and 19 days postnatally. Although the overall yield of neuronal RNA diminished with age, the proportion of RNA in the Purkinje cell body fraction increased while that in the granule cells decreased and microscopic examination of the fractions confirmed this result. The yields of succinate-INT-reductase and of acetylcholinesterase in the fractions paralleled the yields of RNA. A significant finding was the trend toward diminishing specific activities (units/μg of RNA) with age of both enzymes in the Purkinje cell bodies as against the opposite, upward trend of their specific activities in the granule cells. An additional finding of interest was the different ratio of true acetylcholinesterase/total cholinesterase activity in the two cell types, with the granule cells consistently exhibiting higher true acetylcholinesterase values than the Purkinje cell bodies. The present report thus supplements the histoenzymological data on the developing rat cerebellum in that it reveals specific differences in the enzymatic development of two different cerebellar types, a finding which was greatly facilitated by the availability of the procedure for their bulk isolation. 相似文献

By cytofluorometry employing the cytofluorometric PAS reaction, a study was made of the total glycogen and of its two fractions in liver parenchymal cells, both in the norm and in patients with chronic alcoholism (alcoholic steatosis, chronic alcoholic hepatitis, and mixed forms of alcoholic-viral hepatitis, viral hepatitis with steatosis and also viral hepatitis). The examination was performed on preparations-smears of isolated hepatocytes, obtained from the live puncture liver biopsies. The quantitative analysis has shown the increase in the total glycogen content in hepatocytes of patients with alcoholic hepatitis in comparison with the norm and with chronic viral hepatitis. The transition from a reverse stage--alcoholic steatosis--to alcoholic hepatitis was accompanied by a sharp increase in the total glycogen content and by an obvious change in the ratio of glycogen fractions, towards the hard soluble fraction in liver cells. The quantitative analysis of glycogen fractions in liver cells of patients with chronic alcoholic disease may be an appreciated marker of differential diagnostics of different stages and forms of alcoholic liver disease. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli B glycogen synthase has been purified to apparent homogeneity with the use of a 4-aminobutyl-Sepharose column. Two fractions of the enzyme were obtained: glycogen synthase I with a specific activity of 380 mumol mg-1 and devoid of branching enzyme activity and glycogen synthase II having a specific activity of 505 mumol mg-1 and containing branching enzyme activity which was 0.1% of the activity observed for the glycogen synthase. Only one protein band was found in disc gel electrophoresis for each glycogen synthase fraction and they were coincident with glycogen synthase activity. One major protein band and one very faint protein band which hardly moved into the gel were observed in sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of the glycogen synthase fractions. The subunit molecular weight of the major protein band in sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of both glycogen synthase fractions was determined to be 49 000 +/- 2 000. The molecular weights of the native enzymes were determined by sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation. Glycogen synthase I had a molecular weight of 93 000 while glycogen synthase II had a molecular weight of 200 000. On standing at 4 degrees C or at -85 degrees C both enzymes transform into species having molecular weights of 98 000, 135 000, and 185 000. Thus active forms of the E. coli B glycogen synthase can exist as dimers, trimers, and tetramers of the subunit. The enzyme was shown to catalyze transfer of glucose from ADPglucose to maltose and to higher oligosaccharides of the maltodextrin series but not to glucose. 1,5-Gluconolactone was shown to be a potent inhibitor of the glycogen synthase reaction. The glycogen synthase reaction was shown to be reversible. Formation of labeled ADPglucose occurred from either [14C]ADP or [14C]glycogen. The ratio of ADP to ADPglucose at equilibrium at 37 degrees C was determined and was found to vary threefold in the pH range of 5.27-6.82. From these data the ratio of ADP2- to ADPglucose at equilibrium was determined to be 45.8 +/- 4.5. Assuming that deltaF degrees of the hydrolysis of the alpha-1,4-glucosidic linkage is -4.0 kcal the deltaF degrees of hydrolysis of the glucosidic linkage in ADPglucose is -6.3 kcal. 相似文献

A protocol was developed in 3T3-L1 adipocytes that resulted in the specific desensitization of glycogen synthase activation by insulin. Cells were pretreated for 15 min with 100 nm insulin, and then recovered for 1.5 h in the absence of hormone. Subsequent basal and insulin-induced phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, IRS-1, MAPK, Akt kinase, and GSK-3 were similar in control and pretreated cells. Additionally, enhanced glucose transport and incorporation into lipid in response to insulin were unaffected. However, pretreatment reduced insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis by over 50%, due to a nearly complete inhibition of glycogen synthase activation. Removal of extracellular glucose during the recovery period blocked the increase in glycogen levels, and restored insulin-induced glycogen synthase activation. Furthermore, incubation of pretreated 3T3-L1 adipocytes with glycogenolytic agents reversed the desensitization event. Separation of cellular lysates on sucrose gradients revealed that glycogen synthase was primarily located in the dense pellet fraction, with lesser amounts in the lighter fractions. Insulin induced glycogen synthase translocation from the lighter to the denser glycogen-containing fractions. Interestingly, insulin preferentially activated translocated enzyme while having little effect on the majority of glycogen synthase activity in the pellet fraction. In insulin-pretreated cells, glycogen synthase did not return to the lighter fractions during recovery, and thus did not move in response to the second insulin exposure. These results suggest that, in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, the translocation of glycogen synthase may be an important step in the regulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin. Furthermore, intracellular glycogen levels can regulate glycogen synthase activation, potentially through modulation of enzymatic localization. 相似文献

The electrical conductance of lipid bilayer membranes of oxidized cholesterol is elevated 102–103 times by the addition of various products of the heating of amino acids. Solution of such products in chloroform yields a greater increase in conductance. The results are obtained with both water-soluble and water-insoluble fractions. They are discussed in the context of the origin of electroconductive tissue. 相似文献

The growth behavior of Gram-negative bacteria when exposed to high concentrations (50% v/v) of water-insoluble organic solvents was investigated. The solvents were chosen according to their polarity values as denoted by a logarithmically expressed parameter log P, where P is the partition coefficient of a given solvent in an equimolar mixture of octanol and water. The cell growth was measured by the number of colonies developed on a solid agar medium in direct contact with the solvents. All 31 strains tested showed characteristic growth patterns. The survival and subsequent growth of bacteria increased with the increase in the log P value and was found to be strain specific. For all the strains, 100% cell growth was reached from 0% within 0.1–0.4 log P units. Log P50 values, defined as the log P values at which 50% of the cells form colonies, were determined for each bacterial strain. On the whole, Pseudomonas strains were found to be more resistant to apolar solvents than all other bacteria tested. This resistance was dependent not only on the polarities but also on the toxic nature of different organic solvents, the cell membrane components, and to a limited extent, the growth medium. A tenfold increase in the Mg2+ concentration in the growth medium enhanced the solvent resistance of E. coli but had no such effect on Pseudomonads. In general, different growth temperatures had no impact on the solvent resistance of the Gram-negative bacteria tested. 相似文献

Cellulose cotton linter was oxidized with sodium hypochlorite with catalytic amounts of sodium bromide and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO) under various conditions. After this TEMPO-mediated oxidation, water-insoluble fractions were collected and characterized in terms of carboxylate and aldehyde contents, crystallinities and crystal sizes, degrees of polymerization, morphology, and water retention values. Carboxylate and aldehyde groups were introduced into the water-insoluble fractions up to about 0.7 and 0.3 mmol/g, respectively, by the oxidation, where recovery of the water-insoluble fractions were generally higher than 80%. Crystallinities and crystal sizes of cellulose I were nearly unchanged during the oxidation, and thus, carboxylate and aldehyde groups were introduced selectively on crystal surfaces and in disordered regions of the water-insoluble fractions. Water retention values of cotton linter can be increased from 60% to about 280% through the introduction of hydrophilic carboxylate groups and morphological changes from fibrous forms to short fragments by the TEMPO-mediated oxidation. 相似文献

The quantitative analysis of total glycogen and two fractions of the glycogen content was made by means of cytophotometry in hepatocytes with respect to the portal and central zones of the liver lobule after 48 hr starvation and 15, 30, 60, 120 min after refeeding using the Magiscan image analyzer. It was shown that glycogen content was minimal after 48 hr starvation, although a few cells of the central zone contained a noticeable glycogen quantity. Glycogen synthesis initiation was observed after 15 min refeeding. Glycogen synthesis has been characterized by an increasing glycogen content in the portal zone of the liver lobule compared to the pericentral zone, and this difference increased with time. The distinctive morphological changes were observed in the total glycogen content as well as fractions with different optical density in the process of glycogen synthesis after starvation of rats. 相似文献

A chemical and autoradiographic study of cellulose synthesis during the encystment of Acanthamoeba castellanii 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
When cells of Acanthamoeba castellanii are placed in a non-nutrient medium, they differentiate into cysts which possess cellulosic walls. In the present study, the source of the glucosyl unit for cyst wall cellulose was investigated by following the encystment of trophozoites grown in the presence of 14C-labeled fatty acids (uniformly labeled palmitate or oleate) or [3-3H]glucose. Cells were fractionated at the beginning and after 30 hr of encystment using a modified Schmidt-Tannhauser procedure. In cells grown on fatty acids, 90% of the labeled material was in the lipid fractions both before and after encystment with the total amount of label/cell changing very little. Both partial and complete acid hydrolysis of the glycogen of the acidsoluble fraction and the alkali-insoluble residue of the cyst wall indicated that the glucose of both fractions was not radioactive, although Acanthamoeba is known to have a functional glyoxylate pathway.Fractionation data of cells grown on [3H]glucose indicated a sevenfold increase in radioactivity in the wall insoluble fraction and a fivefold decrease in the acid-soluble fraction with the cpm/cell of the other fractions changing very little after 30 hr of encystment. Approximately 70% of the 3H-labeled material was recovered as glucose from the 30-hr wall insoluble fraction following complete acid hydrolysis. The specific radioactivity of glucose in the cyst wall insoluble fraction was the same as that of glycogen glucose isolated from the acid soluble fraction of trophozoites. Electron microscopic autoradiography showed that the majority of nonlipid radioactivity was due to glycogen in trophozoites. Autoradiograms failed to reveal Golgi bodies or any particular region of the cell as being the specialized site of cellulose synthesis. The results of the fractionation and autoradiographic studies are consistent with the concept that glycogen is a precursor of cyst wall cellulose, and that glucosyl units of glycogen and/or other glucose derivatives are converted to cellulose without significant dilution under the experimental conditions used. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on the maximum specific growth rate and the cell yield was studied during cultivation of two bacterial strains (LPM-4 and Pseudomonas sp. LPM-410) on EDTA under unlimited cell growth conditions in a pH-auxostat. Both strains displayed linear dependence of reciprocal biomass yield against reciprocal specific growth rate, from which the values of rate of substrate expenditure for cell maintenance and the “maximum” yield (i.e., hypothetical yield without cell maintenance processes) were estimated. Analysis of the maximum yield values based on mass–energy balance theory suggested that oxidation of the carboxylic acid side chains of EDTA by a monooxygenase had zero or low energetic efficiency. An Arrhenius equation with different values of Arrhenius parameters within different temperature ranges gave a good fit with the temperature dependence of both growth rate and biomass yield. Specific growth rates of both strains showed a more pronounced temperature dependence than did the cell yields. A possible kinetic mechanism was suggested which might be responsible for the modes of the temperature dependences of specific growth rate and yield that were found. The mechanism is based on a hypothetical key substance governing the metabolic flows, which is formed in a zero-order reaction and destroyed in a first-order reaction, both rate constants depending on temperature according to the Arrhenius law. 相似文献

To identify proteins expressed in Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 during exponential growth in defined medium, we separated soluble proteins of E. coli over two dimensions of native-state high-performance liquid chromatography, and examined the components of the protein mixtures in each of 380 fractions by peptide mass fingerprinting. To date, we have identified the products of 310 genes covering a wide range of cellular functions. Validation of protein assignments was made by comparing the assignments of proteins to specific first-dimension fractions to proteins visualized by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Co-fractionation of proteins suggests the possible identities of components of multiprotein complexes. This approach yields high-throughput gel-independent identification of proteins. It can also be used to assign identities to spots visualized by two-dimensional gels, and should be useful to evaluate differences in expressed proteome content and protein complexes among strains or between different physiological states. 相似文献

We have measured the incorporation of 3H-(methyl)-thymidine by cell cultures of rat foetal liver and in vivo by the livers of young rats stimulated by casein, in order to compare three methods for the extraction of DNA. The DNA was extracted by three different techniques: perchloric acid precipitation, trichloroacetic acid precipitation and phenol extraction, and its specific activity was determined. The radioactive labelling was also determined for the lipid, ribonucleic acid and protein fractions for the two first methods, in both of which 70 p. cent of the incorporated tritium is found in the DNA fraction and about 10 p. cent in each of the other fractions. The determination of the specific radioactivity of DNA gives similar results for the three extraction methods. However, since larger yields were obtained by both acid precipitation techniques than by phenol extraction, we believe them to be more suitable for studies on cell cultures. 相似文献
