Inactivation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl Coenzyme A reductase by reductase kinase and ATP-Mg needs either ADP or 5'-AMP as cofactors. 5'-AMP is a more potent activator of cytosolic reductase kinase than ADP. This capacity is expressed by increasing not only the rate of reductase inactivation, but also the rate of reductase phosphorylation from [gamma-32P]ATP. Activation constants, Ka, for 5'-AMP and ADP are 20 microM and 420 microM respectively. Neither 3'-AMP nor 2'-AMP activate reductase kinase. Other nucleoside monophosphates like UMP, CMP and GMP cannot replace 5'-AMP as activators of reductase kinase.  相似文献

Microsomal 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase kinase has been purified to apparent homogeneity by a process involving the following steps: solubilization from microsomes and chromatography on Affi-Gel Blue, phosphocellulose, Bio-Gel A 1.5m, and agarose-hexane-ATP. The apparent Mr of the purified enzyme as judged by gel-filtration chromatography is 205,000 and by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis is 105,000. Immunoprecipitation of homogeneous reductase phosphorylated by reductase kinase and [γ-32P]ATP produces a unique band containing 32P bound to protein which migrates at the same Rf as the reductase subunit. Incubation of 32P-labeled HMG-CoA reductase with reductase phosphatase results in a time-dependent loss of protein-bound 32P radioactivity, as well as an increase in enzymic activity. Reductase kinase, when incubated with ATP, undergoes autophosphorylation, and a simultaneous increase in its enzymatic activity is observed. Tryptic treatment of immunoprecipitated, 32P-labeled HMG-CoA reductase phosphorylated with reductase kinase produces only one 32P-labeled phosphopeptide with the same Rf as one of the two tryptic phosphopeptides that have been reported in a previous paper. The possible existence of a second microsomal reductase kinase is discussed.  相似文献

A procedure for the purification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase [mevalonate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (CoA-acylating); EC 1.1.1.34] from rat liver microsomes has been developed. The enzyme preparations obtained by this procedure have specific activities of 16 to 23 μmol of mevalonate formed per minute per milligram of protein. These enzyme preparations were judged to be homogeneous on the basis of comigration of enzyme activity and protein on polyacrylamide gels.  相似文献

A water-soluble derivative of cholesterol, methoxypolyoxyethylated (MPOE) cholesterol, has been synthesized and used to study the regulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the key regulatory enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis. MPOE cholesterol causes a specific, rapid and linear decline in HMG-CoA reductase in cultured rat liver cells. MPOE cholesterol is not a direct allosteric inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, does not appear to regulate HMG-CoA reductase through changes in membrane environment, and does not change the phosphorylation state and level of activation of rat liver cell HMG-CoA reductase. In order to confirm our data, which were consistent with a model in which MPOE cholesterol regulates the amount of HMG-CoA reductase and not its activity, we made direct measurements of reductase mRNA levels. The decline in HMG-CoA reductase in MPOE cholesterol-treated rat liver cells is preceded by the rapid disappearance of HMG-CoA reductase mRNA. As a water-soluble cholesterol derivative, MPOE cholesterol represents a useful model compound for studies on the regulation of the level of HMG-CoA reductase and its cognate mRNA.  相似文献

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase has been purified from rat liver microsomes with a recovery of approx. 25%. The enzyme was homogeneous on gel electrophoresis and enzyme activity comigrated with the single protein band. The molecular weight of the reductase determined by gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 was 200,000. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gave a subunit molecular weight of 52,000 +/- 2000, suggesting that the enzyme was a tetramer. The specific activities of the purified enzyme obtained from rats fed diets containing 0% or 5% cholestyramine were 11,303 and 19,584 nmol NADPH oxidized/min per mg protein, respectively. The reductase showed unique binding properties to Cibacron Blue Sepharose; the enzyme was bound to the Cibacron Blue via the binding sites for both substrates, NADPH and (S)-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A. Antibodies prepared against purified reductase inactivated 100% of the soluble and at least 91% of the microsomal enzyme activity. Immunotitrations of solubilized enzyme obtained from normal and cholestyramine-fed rats indicated that cholestyramine feeding both increased the amount of enzyme protein and resulted in enzyme activation. Administration of increasing amounts of mevalonolactone to rats decreased the equivalence point obtained from immunotitration studies with solubilized enzyme. These data indicate that the antibody cross-reacts with the inactive enzyme formed after mevalonolactone treatment.  相似文献

Using radiation inactivation and immunoblotting techniques, evidence for functionally active forms of rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase with molecular weights of about 100,000 and 200,000 was obtained. In liver microsomes isolated from rats fed both mevinolin and colestipol, the Mr 100,000 form was the predominant species, whereas in microsomes from animals fed only colestipol, the Mr 200,000 species was the major form. This Mr 200,000 form could be converted to the Mr 100,000 form by addition of dithiothreitol or beta-mercaptoethanol. Although both forms appear to possess catalytic activity, the Mr 200,000 species displays sigmoidal kinetics with respect to the concentration of NADPH, whereas the Mr 100,000 form exhibits typical hyperbolic kinetics.  相似文献

A simple, efficient, freeze-thaw procedure for the solubilization of liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase has been developed. Microsomes of chicken or rat liver were prepared by homogenization in buffer containing 100 mm sucrose, 50 mm KCl, 40 mm KH2PO4, 30 mm EDTA, and 2 mm DTT, pH 7.2 (buffer A). The homogenate was centrifuged at 12,000g (15 min), and the microsomes were separated from the supernatant by centrifugation at 100,000g (60 min). The isolated microsomes were frozen, either by dry ice-acetone or by storage in a freezer at ?20°C. The frozen microsomes were permitted to thaw at room temperature, homogenized in buffer A, and centrifuged at 100,000g (60 min). The extraction was repeated and the combined supernatants contained 70 to 90% of the microsomal HMG-CoA reductase activity. The yield of enzyme activity by the freeze-thaw technique is equal to or greater than previously reported methodologies and is significantly easier to perform. This procedure is particularly suited to the preparation of large quantities of solubilized enzyme for isolation and characterization of HMG-CoA reductase. In addition, this method does not require the use of detergents, sonification, or other procedures which might partially inactivate or alter the molecular properties of the enzyme.  相似文献

Incubation of four purified rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase phosphatases (G. Gil, M. Sitges, and F. G. Hegardt, (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta663, 211–221) with HMG-CoA, CoA, NADPH, or citrate caused a concentration-dependent inactivation of the enzyme activities. HMG-CoA and CoA showed similar patterns of inactivation and at 0.5 mm of both compounds, the four reductase phosphatases were fully inhibited. Half-maximal inactivation was comprised between 0.02 and 0.1 mm of HMG-CoA and CoA. NADPH at concentration ranging between 5 and 10 mm produced complete inactivation of reductase phosphatases. Citrate at 5 mm produced full inactivation, and half-maximal inhibition ranged from 0.1 to 0.4 mm for the different phosphatases. The behavior of fluoride varied with respect to the four phosphatases: Low molecular forms were inactivated in a similar manner as described for other protein phosphatases. However, high molecular forms were slightly inactivated, and phosphatase IIa at 100 mm showed a level of activity similar to the control. The effect of KCl on the four reductase phosphatases could explain this behavior since at high concentrations, KCl (and NaCl) produced activation in both high and low molecular forms, this effect being more enhanced in high Mr reductase phosphatases. The insensitivity to fluoride of high Mr reductase phosphatases could explain the discrepancies in percentage of the active form of HMG-CoA reductase described previously in literature.  相似文献

Several compounds containing various structural moieties of NAD(P)(H), were examined as possible effectors of rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity. Microsomal reductase was activated with 4.5mM GSH, assayed with subsaturating NADPH concentration and increasing amounts of the tested compounds. Under these conditions, the essential and sufficient structure required to allosterically enhance the activity of the reductase is that of 5'-AMP. When the 2' position of the nucleotide is phosphorylated, this allosteric activation is diminished.  相似文献

The microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the cholesterogenic pathway and was proposed to be composed in situ of 2 noncovalently linked subunits (Edwards, P.A., Kempner, E.S., Lan, S.-F., and Erickson, S.K. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 10278-10282). In the present report, the activities and kinetic properties of HMG-CoA reductase in microsomes isolated from livers of rats fed on diets supplemented with either ground Amberlite XAD-2 ("X"), cholestyramine/mevinolin ("CM"), or unsupplemented, normal rat chow ("N"), were compared. The specific activities of HMG-CoA reductase in X and CM microsomes were, respectively, 5- and 83-fold higher than that of N microsomes. In NADPH-dependent kinetics of HMG-CoA reductase activated with 4.5 mM GSH, the concentration of NADPH required for half-maximal velocity (S0.5) was 209 +/- 23, 76 +/- 23, and 40 +/- 4 microM for the N, X, and CM microsomes, respectively. While reductase from X microsomes displays cooperative kinetics toward NADPH (Hill coefficient (nH) = 1.97 +/- 0.07), the enzyme from CM microsomes does not (nH = 1.04 +/- 0.07). Similarly to HMG-CoA reductase from CM microsomes, the freeze-thaw solubilized enzyme ("SOL") displays no cooperativity toward NADPH and its Km for this substrate is 34 microM. At 4.5 mM GSH, HMG-CoA reductase from X, CM, and SOL preparations has a similar Km value for [DL]-HMG-CoA, ranging between 13-16 microM, while reductase from N microsomes had a higher Km value (42 microM) for this substrate. No cooperativity towards HMG-CoA was observed in any of the tested enzyme preparations. Immunoblotting analyses of the different preparations demonstrated that the observed altered kinetics of HMG-CoA reductase in the microsomes is not due to preferential proteolytic cleavage of the native 97-100 kDa subunit of the enzyme to the noncooperative 50-55 kDa species. Moreover, it was found that the ratio enzymatic activity/immunoreactivity of the reductase increased in the order N less than X less than CM approximately equal to SOL, indicating that the activity per reductase molecule increases with the induction of the enzyme. These results are compatible with a model suggesting that dietary induction of hepatic HMG-CoA reductase may change the state of functional aggregation of its subunits.  相似文献

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase in the ileum of rats was inactivated by Mg2+-ATP and reversibly reactivated by cytoplasmic activator from the liver. The mevalonate kinase reaction was presumably not involved in this inactivation. Studies of nucleotide specificity for the inactivation revealed that ATP was most effective in the reaction among the nucleotides tested. In contrast to the hepatic microsomal HMG-CoA reductase, more than one-half of intestinal reductase existed in an active form. These observations indicated the presence of phosphorylation-dephosphorylation mechanism for modulation of intestinal HMG-CoA reductase.  相似文献

The activity, protein concentration and catalytic efficiency of hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase was determined in rats aged 1 to 199 days. Microsomal enzyme total activity peaked on day 24, during weaning, and again on day 63, during the onset of puberty. Increased enzyme activity during weaning resulted primarily from an increase in the catalytic efficiency of the enzyme with a slight reduction in enzyme protein content. The rise in enzyme activity during the onset of puberty, however, was primarily the result of an increase in enzyme protein concentration. Thus, the activity of reductase in mammalian livers reflects, at different stages in development, the modulating influence of both the total number of reductase molecules and the catalytic efficiency of the enzyme.  相似文献

Improved assay of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase   总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10  
Two improvements are described for the assay of HMG CoA reductase. These are a simple synthesis of the substrate precursor HMG-3-(14)C anhydride and a double-label ((14)C and (3)H) method for determining the amount of mevalonate-3-(14)C that is formed from the substrate.  相似文献

Adenosine 2'-monophospho-5'-diphosphoribose (P-ADP-Rib) is a structural analog of NADPH which was reported to competitively inhibit (Kiapp = 21.7 microM) solubilized rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (Tanazawa, K., and A. Endo. 1979. Eur. J. Biochem. 98: 195-201). However, microsomal HMG-CoA reductase, which at low thiol concentrations exhibits allosteric properties, is only poorly inhibited by P-ADP-Rib (Kiapp = 550 microM at 4.5 mM GSH). Gradual shift of the microsomal reductase towards a non-allosteric form by increasing glutathione (GSH) concentrations resulted in a higher inhibition by P-ADP-Rib. Under these conditions, Ki values for P-ADP-Rib were 165 microM and 53 microM at 9 mM and 27 mM GSH, respectively. The largest change in the degree of inhibition by P-ADP-Rib was observed within the 10 mM range of GSH. By contrast, freeze-thaw solubilized HMG-CoA reductase, which does not display allosteric properties, is readily inhibited by P-ADP-Rib, even when assayed at a low concentration of GSH (Kiapp = 50 microM at 4.5 mM GSH). Assaying the solubilized reductase in the presence of increased thiol concentration results in a minor decrease in the apparent Ki for P-ADP-Rib (22 microM at 27 mM GSH). Microsomal HMG-CoA reductase is allosterically activated by various nucleotides. When activated by NADH, the enzyme is effectively inhibited by P-ADP-Rib even at a 4.5-mM GSH concentration (Kiapp = 175 microM in the presence of 300 microM NADH).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

This paper describes a rapid purification procedure for 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, the major regulatory enzyme in hepatic cholesterol biosynthesis. A freeze-thaw technique is used for solubilizing the enzyme from rat liver microsomal membranes. No detergents or other stringent conditions are required. The purification procedure employs Blue Dextran-Sepharose-4B affinity chromatography, and purification can be carried out from microsomal membranes to purified enzyme in 8 to 10 hours. The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 517 nmoles/min/mg protein, and it is 975-fold purified with respect to the original microsomal membrane suspension. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme shows only trace impurities; the subunit molecular weight for the enzyme measured by this technique is 47,000.  相似文献
