大麦根细胞质膜Ca~(2+)-ATP酶和Ca~(2+)转运系统的特性

用大麦质膜微囊研究细胞质膜 Ca~(2+)转运过程,发现质膜 Ca~(2+)—ATP酶在反应系统中不存在Mg~(2+)时可正常表现活性。跨膜Ca~(2+)转运按其对Mg~(2+)的需求可分为两个过程,一个是不需Mg~(2+)的、具高Ca~(2+)亲和力和较低的转运能力;另一个则是需Mg~(2+)的、具低Ca~(2+)亲和力和较高的转运能力。前者的动力学特征与Ca~(2+)—ATP酶相近,而后者则相差很大。据此推测,大麦根细胞质膜上除Ca~(2+)—ATP酶外,还存在另一个不同的Ca~(2+)转运系统。由两者分别承担的Ca~(2+)转运过程在细胞钙信使系统中可能起着不同的作用。     

跨膜Ca^2＋梯度对肌质网Ca^2＋—ATP酶调节的特异性

我们曾报道跨膜Ｃａ＾２＋梯度可通过膜脂影响肌质网Ｃａ＾２＋－ＡＴＰ酶的构象和活性。本文就跨膜Ｃａ＾２＋－ＡＴＰ酶的构象和活性。本文就跨膜Ｃａ＾２＋梯度对肌质网Ｃａ＾２＋－ＡＴＰ酶的调节是否具有特异性作进一步研究。结果表明这种特异性表现在两方面：一是跨膜Ｃａ＾２＋梯度对肌质网Ｃａ＾２＋－ＡＴＰ酶功能的调节不能归结于跨膜Ｃａ＾２＋深度梯度所导致的膜电位的作用,离子载体ＦＣＣＰ可消除跨膜电位但并不影响肌     

重金属离子对猪红细胞膜Ca~(2+)-ATP酶的作用

猪红细胞膜Ca~(2+)-ATP酶是一种钙调蛋白(CaM)依赖酶,其活力又依赖巯基的完整性。实验应用Ca~(2+)-ATP酶这一模型体系观察到重金属离子,Pb~(2+)、Cd~(2+)和Hg~(2+)都能替代Ca~(2+),激活CaM,从而激活Ca~(2+)-ATP酶;其最大刺激活力分别为85％、80％和30％,半刺激浓度分别为32、27和0.7μmol/L。当三种重金属离子的浓度增加时,则与Ca~(2+)-ATP酶的巯基结合,抑制酶的活力,Pb2~(2+)、Cd~(2+)和Hg~(2+)的半抑制浓度分别为370、440和2μmol/L。抑制作用为渐进性过程,而刺激作用为即时效应。抑制作用可为巯基化物,特别是二巯基化物所逆转。研究结果提示,CaM可能是重金属中毒最初作用的靶分子,而重金属中毒不仅使CaM“开关”失灵,还可能导致细胞内Ca~(2+)的调节全面失控。     

大鼠心肌肌浆网的纯化及其性质研究

 用超声波破碎心肌细胞,差速离心法纯化大鼠心肌肌浆网(CSR)。SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳测得Ca~(2+)-ATPase分子量为98kD;电镜观察膜制备为完整的CSR微囊;标志酶哇巴因敏感型Na~(+),K~(+)-ATPase和叠氮化钠敏感型Mg~(2+)-ATPase活性表明膜制备中肌膜含量很低,但仍有线粒体污染。 用~(45)Ca~(2+)示踪微孔滤膜法研究Ca~(2+)跨膜转运,CSRCa~(2+)蓄集最大值为57nmol/mg蛋白。CSR Ca~(2+)-ATPase在4℃—21℃和21℃—49℃两区间反应活化能不同,前者大于后者。酶的最适pH为7.4。以ATP为底物,该酶有两个表观Km值:Km_1为3.7μmol/LKm_2为713μmol/L。     

大麦根细胞质膜Ca~(2+)转运系统对盐胁迫的反应

大麦幼苗经短时间盐处理,尚未发生伤害时,虽然质膜上需Mg~(2+)和不需Mg~(2+)的两个Ca~(2+)转运系统的转运能力均基本未变,但两者的动力学特征却有所不同。在盐处理3h内,不需Mg~(2+)的Ca~(2+)转运过程对Ca~(2+)的亲和力便明显降低,而需Mg~(2+)的Ca~(2+)转运过程对Ca~(2+)的亲和力变化不大。较长时间盐处理,两个Ca~(2+)转运系统的转运能力和ATP亲和力均有不同程度的减小。这种减小与幼苗的伤害相伴出现,随处理时间加长而加剧。不同时间的盐处理下,质膜Ca~(2+)—ATP酶活性与不需Mg~(2+)的Ca~(2+)转运过程变化规律一致。Ca~(2+)—ATP酶受钙调素激活的特性在盐处理3h内即有所减小,至处理24h基本丧失。由动力学分析结果推测,短时间盐胁迫下质膜上两个Ca~(2+)转运系统的不同变化是植物的一种调节反应,它们在钙信使系统传递胁迫信号的过程中起不同作用。Ca~(2+)—ATP酶驱动的初级Ca~(2+)转运系统可能与胁迫信号的传递有关,而次级Ca~(2+)转运系统即可能起着信息传递之后将剩余 Ca~(2+)运出胞外的功能。较长时间盐胁迫下两系统Ca~(2+)转运能力的降低则是一种伤害反应。     

Ca~(2+)通过膜脂影响肌质网Ca~(2+)-ATP酶的活性与Ca~(2+)转运功能

重建在大豆磷脂脂质体上的兔骨骼肌肌质网Ca~(2+)—ATP酶在ATP驱动下可将溶液中的Ca~(2+)转运到脂酶体内部;外加EGTA则可除去脂酶体外部的Ca~(2+),由此可得到四种含Ca~(2+)状态不同的脂酶体:(1)内、外都无Ca~(2+);(2)仅外部有Ca~(2+);(3)内、外都有Ca~(2+);(4),仅内部有Ca~(2+).用DPH和AS系列萤光探针对这四种含Ca~+状态不同的脂酶体的膜脂流动性进行了测定,结果表明:脂酶体外部加入Ca~(2+),脂双层外表面的流动性降低.当Ca~(2+)进入脂酶体内部后,内表面膜脂的流动性也降低,而且外层膜脂流动性进一步降低.脂酶体内、外的Ca~(2+)含量不同时,Ca~(2+)—ATP酶功能状态也不同.转运到脂酶体内部的ca~(2+)积累到一定浓度后,通过Ca~(2+)泵向内转运的Ca~(2+)及Ca~(2+)—ATP酶活力都受到了抑制.转运进行到第四分钟时的酶活只有第一分钟的9%.但在相同的实验条件下,失去了完整的膜结构的纯化的Ca~(2+)—ATP酶蛋白没有被抑制.这提示完整的膜结构是这种抑制作用所必需的,而且膜两侧Ca~(2+)浓度的梯差可通过影响膜脂来调节Ca~(2+)—ATP酶的功能.

若干蝙蝠葛碱衍生物对人红细胞膜Ca~(2+)-Mg~(2+)-ATPase活力的影响

本文测定了数种蝙蝠葛碱衍生物对钙调素(CaM)激活的人红细胞膜Ca~(2+)-Mg~(2+)-ATPase活力的影响。结果表明,这些化合物对该酶都有不同程度的抑制作用,其机制表现为竞争性抑制,过量的CaM能完全逆转这些化合物所引起的抑制。当Ca~(2+)-Mg~(2+)-ATPase被胰蛋白酶(trypsin)限制性酶解完全活化后,其活力不再受CaM激活,但仍被这些化合物所抑制。

 从猪脑中提取钙调蛋白和突触质膜,我们研究了山莨菪碱对经有限蛋白水解和磷脂酶A_2处理后的突触膜Ca~(2+)-ATPase活性影响。发现药物对不同预处理后的Ca~(2+)-ATPase表现出不同影响并调节钙调蛋白对它的激活作用。     

在ts-RSV LA90细胞转化过程中钙流变化的研究

本文以ts-RSV LA90细胞为模型,用放射性同位素示踪技术测定了通过细胞质膜的~(45)Ca~(2+)流水平;同时用钙指示剂Indo-1 AM和光学多道分析仪测定了胞内[Ca~(2+)]_i,初步研究了Ca~(2+)流和[Ca~(2+)]_i在v-src基因引起细胞转化过程中的动态变化。结果表明LA90细胞质膜上~(45)Ca~(2+)流的改变是细胞转化过程中可以检测到的早期事件之一,转化状态(33℃)细胞的~(45)Ca~(2+)流大于正常状态(40℃)的,细胞从正常到转化(40℃→33℃)的25分钟内~(45)Ca~(2+)流就有明显增大。TMB-8可以抑制转化引起的~(45)Ca~(2+)流出的增大,小牛血清可以刺激正常状态细胞的~(45)Ca~(2+)流出增大,~(45)Ca~(2+)流出与温度有一定依赖关系;细胞转化引起的~(45)Ca~(2+)流入增大,可被异博定抑制,~(45)Ca~(2+)流入不受温度的影响。LA90细胞[Ca~(2+)]_i在转化早期有明显升高,并维持在较正常细胞高2—3倍的水平,A23187-Br可提高正常LA90细胞[Ca~(2+)]_i,[Ca~(2+)]_i不受温度的影响。从质膜上~(45)Ca~(2+)流和[Ca~(2+)]_i的增大说明转化细胞虽然对胞外Ca~(2+)浓度依赖性下降,但维持增殖及转化状态仍然需要一定的胞外Ca~(2+),并通过提高质膜Ca~(2+)流入和释放内源性Ca~(2+),使转化细胞[Ca~(2+)]_i维持在较高水平上。LA90细膜质膜上~(45)Ca~(2+)流和[Ca~(2+)]_i的增大在细胞转化中起着重大作用。     

大鼠气管上皮细胞发生过程中Ca~(2+)-ATPase活性变化的形态学观察

本文应用光镜和电镜组化方法,对胚胎晚期至生后早期的 Wistar 大鼠气管上皮细胞Ca~(2+)-ATPase 的动态变化进行了观察。结果证实在胚胎期气管上皮细胞侧面膜和表面膜及纤毛细胞的纤毛干处有 Ca~(2+)-ATPase 活性反应产物,提示胚胎期气管上皮细胞之间可能已存在与气管上皮细胞分化、发育密切相关的钙;在生后早期,纤毛细胞的基粒和纤毛小根处出现活性 Ca~(2+)-ATPase,表明生后早期已出现纤毛运动,其对廓清气道具有重要意义。     

外源Ca^2＋对离体菠菜叶片衰老的影响

以叶绿素、蛋白质含量为衰老指标,研究了Ca~(2+)在离体菠菜叶片衰老过程的效应。同时,采用同位素示踪技术研究了光照对离体菠菜叶片吸收,累积Ca~(2+)的影响;实验结果表明,0—10mmol/L Ca~(2+)能使菠菜叶片维持较高含量的叶绿素及各种蛋白质组分。在光、暗条件下,叶片均能吸收外源Ca~(2+),而光照能促进叶片对Ca~(2+)的吸收,暗处理3天的叶片,尚能在分离的叶绿体组分中发现~(45)Ca~(2+),占叶片总放射强度的0.5%。     

Clotrimazole对叶绿体ATPase功能的影响及其作用部位

clotrimazole能抑制 DTT+光激活的类囊体膜上Mg~(2+)—ATPase的活力。这种抑制属于可逆非竞争性抑制。进一步的实验还表明clotrimazole可以消除 9—AA光下荧光粹灭指示的正常类囊体及DCCD重组残缺膜的跨膜质子梯度。卵磷脂可以减缓 clotrimazole对9—AA荧光粹灭的抑制作用。clotrimazole还能抑制DTT加热激活的游离CF_1 Ca~(2+)—ATPase的活力。根据以上结果我们推测 clotrimazole在类囊体上可能有两个作用部位,一个在类囊体膜脂;另一个在CF_1。     

Activating and deactivating roles of lipid bilayers on the Ca(2+)-ATPase/phospholamban complex

The physicochemical properties of the lipid bilayer shape the structure and topology of membrane proteins and regulate their biological function. Here, we investigated the functional effects of various lipid bilayer compositions on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) in the presence and absence of its endogenous regulator, phospholamban (PLN). In the cardiac muscle, SERCA hydrolyzes one ATP molecule to translocate two Ca(2+) ions into the SR membrane per enzymatic cycle. Unphosphorylated PLN reduces SERCA's affinity for Ca(2+) and affects the enzymatic turnover. We varied bilayer thickness, headgroup, and fluidity and found that both the maximal velocity (V(max)) of the enzyme and its apparent affinity for Ca(2+) (K(Ca)) are strongly affected. Our results show that (a) SERCA's V(max) has a biphasic dependence on bilayer thickness, reaching maximum activity with 22-carbon lipid chain length, (b) phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine (PS) increase Ca(2+) affinity, and (c) monounsaturated lipids afford higher SERCA V(max) and Ca(2+) affinity than diunsaturated lipids. The presence of PLN removes the activating effect of PE and shifts SERCA's activity profile, with a maximal activity reached in bilayers with 20-carbon lipid chain length. Our results in synthetic lipid systems compare well with those carried out in native SR lipids. Importantly, we found that specific membrane compositions closely reproduce PLN effects (V(max) and K(Ca)) found in living cells, reconciling an ongoing controversy regarding the regulatory role of PLN on SERCA function. Taken with the physiological changes occurring in the SR membrane composition, these studies underscore a possible allosteric role of the lipid bilayers on the SERCA/PLN complex.     

Modulation of (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity by the lipid bilayer examined with dansylated phosphatidylserine

The fluorescent probe 8-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonylphosphatidylserine (Dns-PS) was incorporated into purified lamb kidney Na+- and K+-stimulated adenosinetriphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3) [(Na+,K+)-ATPase] by using a purified phospholipid exchange protein. Phospholipase C was used to reduce phospholipid content. Up to 40% of the phospholipid could be hydrolyzed with only 10% inhibition of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase, but when 67% of the phospholipid was hydrolyzed, the enzyme was inhibited 53%. To examine the effect of protein on the phospholipid bilayer, the fluorescent parameters of the probe incorporated into the enzyme preparation were contrasted with the same parameters for the probe incorporated into the total lipid extract of the preparation. The polarization of fluorescence of the probe in the lipid extract was 0.118 while in the enzyme preparation it was 0.218. This reflected a decrease in fluidity of the glycerol region of the phospholipid bilayer which was mediated by the protein. This effect increased as the phospholipid content of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase preparation was reduced so that with maximal phospholipid reduction the polarization of fluorescence was 0.262. The protein caused a decrease in the transition temperature from gel to fluid states of the bilayer detected by polarization of the probe. The midpoint temperature transition of the enzyme preparation decreased from 33 degrees C when all phospholipids were present to 20 degrees C when 67% of the phospholipids were hydrolyzed. This decrease was not observed for the lipid extract of these samples. A direct correlation between the (Na+,K+)-ATPase specific activity and the polarization of fluorescence of Dns-PS was found. The reduction in phospholipid content did not affect the steady-state level of phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP but did affect the rate of dephosphorylation which would require conformational changes of the enzymes. The data showed that the fluidity of the phospholipid bilayer can modulate the activity of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase.     

An electron microscopic—cytochemical localization of plasma membrane Ca^2＋—ATPase activity in poplar apical bud cells during the induction of dormancy by short—day photoperiods

Plasma membrane(PM) Ca^2 -ATPase activity in poplar apical bud meristematic cells during short-day(SD)-induced dormancy development was examined by a cerium precipitation EM-cytochemical method.Ca^2 -ATPase activity,indicated by the status of cerium phosphate precipitated grains,was localized mainly on the interior face(cytoplasmic side) of the PM when plants were grown under long days and reached a deep dormancy.A few reaction products were also observed on the nuclear envelope.When plant buds were developing dormancy after 28 to 42 d of SD exposure,almost no reaction products were present on the interior face of the PM.In contrast,a large number of cerium phosphate precipitated grains were distributed on the exterior face of the PM.After 70 d of SD exposure,when buds had developed a deep dormancy,the reaction products of Ca^2 -ATPase activity again appeared on the interior face of the PM.The results seemed suggesting that two kinds of Ca^2 -ATP ases may be present on the PM during the SD-induced dormancy in poplar.One is the Ca^2 -pumping ATPase,which is located on the interior face of the PM,for maintaining and restoring the Ca^2 homeostasis.The other might be and ecto-Ca^2 -ATPase,which is located on the exterior face of the PM,for the exocytosis of cell wall materials as suggested by the fact of the cell wall thickening during the dormancy development in poplar.
