Hemolytic anemia in the mouse. Report of a new mutation and clarification of its genetics 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A new mutation causing spherocytic, hemolytic anemia has been discovered in the house mouse. It is inherited as a single autosomal recessive gene, allelic with both sph and ha, which, in turn, were shown to be allelic with each other. A revised nomenclature for the three apparent alleles is proposed: sph (formerly sph), sphha (formerly ha), and sph2Bc (the new mutation). Like the other murine hemolytic anemias, sph2Bc involves a defect in the red blood cell membrane protein, spectrin. 相似文献

Two electrophoretically distinct components of glucuronidase have been resolved in extracts of murine liver. A mutation which results in a ten-fold reduction in liver glucuronidase activity leads to a reduction in intensity of both components. Since the substrate dependencies of both mutant (gg) and wild-type (GG) glucuronidase have previously been shown to be identical, it is suggested that the mutation results in a decreased concentration of liver glucuronidase molecules. Furthermore, the anodal electrophoretic component is shown to be preferentially localized in lysosomes, while the cathodal component is primarily microsomal. The difference in mobility of the two components may reflect a difference in membranous elements attached to the extracted glucuronidase molecule.This paper was presented at a symposium entitled Genetic Control of Mammalian Metabolism held at The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, June 30–July 2, 1969.

The phosphorylase kinase deficiency (Phk) locus has been located in the mouse X chromosome, the order of genes being centromere-Bn-Phk-Ta-jp. Since the Phk locus of the mouse may be identical to the locus responsible for the X-linked phosphorylase kinase deficiency trait of man, and there may be a high degree of gene-order homology in the X chromosome of all mammals, the location of Phk in the mouse reported here may aid in locating the phosphorylase kinase gene on the X chromosome of man.This research was supported by grants AM 13359 (to F.H.) and AM 14461 (to D.L.C.) from the National Institute of Arthritis and Metabolic Diseases, and by an allocation (to E.M.E.) from NIH General Research Support Grant RR-05545 from the Division of Research Resources to The Jackson Laboratory.

l-Glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.1.1.8) was purified from the muscle of BALB/cJ and C57BL/6J mice. The half-lives of the enzyme at 50 C were 6 and 33 min, respectively, for the BALB/cJ and C57BL/6J strains. Enzyme preparations from the two strains of mice were compared with respect to the following properties and found to be essentially indistinguishable: K
m values for dihydroxyacetone phosphate, NADH, l--glycerophosphate, and NAD+; maximum velocity; competitive inhibition by inorganic phosphate; pH optimum; energy of activation; electrophoretic mobility; molecular weight and subunit molecular weight. From these data, it is concluded that the kinetic properties of the purified enzyme are not the factors responsible for the differences in activity found in crude homogenates of mouse tissues.This work was supported by NIH Research Grant HD 06712 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and by an allocation from NIH General Research Support Grant RR-05545 from the Division of Research Resources to The Jackson Laboratory.

Starch gel electrophoresis of erythrocytes from 1812 Macaca mulatta has unequivocally demonstrated that the 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD) isozymes are controlled by two autosomal codominant alleles. Limited data on erythrocytes from 89 Macaca speciosa were also consistent with autosomal codominance.This work was supported in part by NIH Grants HD 07835 (WHS) and RR-00167 (Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center) and by the Research Committee of the UW Graduate School (Project No. 170207).Paper No. 2146 of the Laboratory of Genetics, and Publication No. 16-045 of The Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center. 相似文献

Zinc deficiency states were produced in rabbit erythrocytes by experimentally induced bleeding anemia and hemolytic anemia. Parallel decreases in total zinc levels and the contents for major zinc protein, carbonic anhydrase I and II isozymes were observed in the erythrocytes. During the process of the anemias the zinc status in the erythrocytes varied remarkably and the relative increase of zinc ions other than that derived from carbonic anhydrase was observed, suggesting that the former zinc ions play an important role in forming a zinc pool in the erythrocytes under the anemic conditions. 相似文献

An electrophoretically detectable variant of pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) has been found in the house mouse Mus musculus. The variant was seen in all tissues examined except liver and red cells. The gene (Pk-3) determining this electrophoretic variation is inherited as an autosomal codominant located on chromosome 9. Our data confirm that the genetic determination of pyruvate kinase in liver and red cells is separate from that in other tissues. In addition, our results indicate that the muscle (M1) and kidney (M2) pyruvate kinase isozymes share at least one genetic determinant and may in fact be determined by the same structural gene.This work was supported by the Medical Research Council and by NIH Grants GM 20919 and RR 01183.

Studies on the genetic mechanisms in control of mouse liver tyrosine aminotransferase expression were of three general types: (1) studies on strain variance in endogenous enzyme activity and of various factors affecting the basal enzyme level, (2) purification of the enzyme and studies of its properties, and (3) studies of strain variance in enzyme regulation dealing primarily with glucocorticoid induction and with the starvation-induced enzyme adaptation. Tyrosine aminotransferase (l-tyrosine: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, E.C. 2.6.1.5) was purified 400 to 600-fold from livers of C57BL/6J and DBA/2J inbred mice. Several of the properties of the mouse liver enzyme were similar to those known for the rat liver enzyme although the apparent K
m (l-tyrosine) was lower, calculated at 6.25×10–4
M. Disc gel electrophoresis of the enzyme from 105,000 g supernatant fluid after induction by hydrocortisone indicated three bands of enzyme activity with strain variance in electrophoretic mobility between the C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice. The administration of glucose to fasting C57BL/6J mice repressed the starvation-induced increase in enzyme activity, but did not prevent the hydrocortisone induction of enzyme activity.

-l-leucine revealed strain differences in the elution patterns for both enzyme activity and radioactivity. Two peaks of enzyme activity were detected in the enzyme preparations from fasting mice. The marked strain variance in the enzyme activity and the quantity of radioactivity associated with the first enzyme peak may indicate differential rates of protein turnover for different isozymic forms of tyrosine aminotransferase. Flumethasone, a potent difluoro synthetic glucocorticoid, was used in studies on the hormonal regulation of tyrosine aminotransferase in obese mutant mice of the C57BL/6J-ob strain. The obese mice are relatively insensitive to the action of adrenal glucocorticoids to cause liver enzyme induction.This paper was presented at a symposium entitled Genetic Control of Mammalian Metabolism held at The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, June 30–July 2, 1969.

A genetic locus controlling the electrophoretic mobility of an acid phosphatase in mouse kidney is described. This locus, called acid phosphatase-kidney (Apk), is not expressed in erythrocytes, liver, spleen, heart, lung, brain, skeletal muscle, stomach, or testes. The product of Apk hydrolyzes the substrate naphthol AS-MX phosphoric acid but is not active on a-naphthylphosphate or 4-methylumbelliferylphosphate. It is not inactivated by 50 C for 1 hr, nor is its electrophoretic mobility altered by incubation with neuraminidase. The locus is invariant among 31 inbred strains (Apk
a), with a variant allele (Apk
m) observed only in Mus musculus molossinus. Codominant expression was observed in F1 hybrids of M. m. molossinus and inbred strains. Apk was mapped on Chr 10, near the neurological mutant waltzer (v).This work was supported by Contract NO1-ES42159 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and by Grant 1-476 from the National Foundation—March of Dimes.

Pathogenic members of the genus Leptospira are the causative agents of leptospirosis, a neglected disease of public and veterinary health concern. Leptospirosis is a systemic disease that in its severest forms leads to renal insufficiency, hepatic dysfunction, and pulmonary failure. Many strains of Leptospira produce hemolytic and sphingomyelinase activities, and a number of candidate leptospiral hemolysins have been identified based on sequence similarity to well-characterized bacterial hemolysins. Five of the putative hemolysins are sphingomyelinase paralogs. Although recombinant forms of the sphingomyelinase Sph2 and other hemolysins lyse erythrocytes, none have been demonstrated to contribute to the hemolytic activity secreted by leptospiral cells. In this study, we examined the regulation of sph2 and its relationship to hemolytic and sphingomyelinase activities produced by several L. interrogans strains cultivated under the osmotic conditions found in the mammalian host. The sph2 gene was poorly expressed when the Fiocruz L1-130 (serovar Copenhageni), 56601 (sv. Lai), and L495 (sv. Manilae) strains were cultivated in the standard culture medium EMJH. Raising EMJH osmolarity to physiological levels with sodium chloride enhanced Sph2 production in all three strains. In addition, the Pomona subtype kennewicki strain LC82-25 produced substantially greater amounts of Sph2 during standard EMJH growth than the other strains, and sph2 expression increased further by addition of salt. When 10% rat serum was present in EMJH along with the sodium chloride supplement, Sph2 production increased further in all strains. Osmotic regulation and differences in basal Sph2 production in the Manilae L495 and Pomona strains correlated with the levels of secreted hemolysin and sphingomyelinase activities. Finally, a transposon insertion in sph2 dramatically reduced hemolytic and sphingomyelinase activities during incubation of L. interrogans at physiologic osmolarity. Complementation of the mutation with the sph2 gene partially restored production of hemolytic and sphingomyelinase activities. These results indicate that the sph2 gene product contributes to the hemolytic and sphingomyelinase activities secreted by L. interrogans and most likely dominates those functions under the culture condition tested. 相似文献

Search for structural variants of three globin chains (x, y, z), synthesized only during mouse embryonic hematopoiesis, was carried out by electrophoretic analysis of blood from 12-day embryos, all with C57BL/6 mothers, and fathers from 115 inbred stocks selected for their diverse genetic origins. Structure of the -chains of adult hemoglobins differed among the tested strains, with 57 carrying the Hbb
sallele, 56 the Hbb
dallele, and two the Hbb
pallele. The search revealed no x- or z-chain variants but confirmed and extended knowledge of a previously described y-chain variant. Blood of all embryos sired by males from the 57 Hbb
sstrains contained only y1-chains, while blood of all embryos sired by Hbb
dor Hbb
pmales contained y2-chains as well as the y1-chains inherited from their C57 BL/6 mother. The locus controlling structure of the y-chain of mouse embryonic hemoglobins is thus extremely closely linked to the locus controlling structure of adult hemoglobin -chain, with maximum possible recombination frequency less than 0.019.This work was supported in part by Grants CA-01074 from the National Cancer Institute, USPHS, and GM 18684 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, in part by Grant ACS-VC58 from The American Cancer Society, in part by grants to the Jackson Laboratory from the Bushrod H.

Genetic control of the level of blood catalase activity was first demonstrated in 1927. At present, such control has been demonstrated or suggested for nine different species, including man, the most studied. The development of an acatalasemic strain of mice has permitted a wide variety of experimental approaches, including most of those used in humans. Among those approaches which cannot readily be applied to man but have been used in acatalasemic mice are investigations of sensitivity to radiation lethality, mechanism of awareness to radiation, possible use as a model for replacement therapy for inborn errors of metabolism, and catalase in tissues other than erythrocytes. These are described, together with genetic, immunological, and other studies comparable to similar work on acatalasemic humans.This paper was presented at a symposium entitled Genetic Control of Mammalian Metabolism held at The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, June 30–July 2, 1969.

Summary Using immunofluorescent techniques thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) is demonstrated in skin of Rana pipiens and R. catesbeiana. The immunofluorescent-TRH is localized in all cell layers of the epidermis and in the epithelium lining the various cutaneous glands, but not in the dermal layer.We wish to thank Dr. Ronald DeLellis and Ms. Mary Blount for their expert advice and guidance in the immunohistochemical techniques.This investigation was supported by NIH National Research Service Award # 1F32 AMO6018-01 from the NIAMDD to Janice L.

The genetic locus for alleles (+k and k) that determine the presence and absence of the muscle enzyme, phosphorylase kinase, has been located on the X chromosome of the mouse. The inheritance of glycogen content in resting skeletal muscle follows the Mendelian pattern, and the genes which determine it must also be sex-linked. Evidence is presented which strongly suggests that one of the major determinants of glycogen concentration is phosphorylase kinase; inverse correlations of the enzyme and glycogen were found during neonatal development and among hybrid females, where content of phosphorylase kinase in muscle is highly variable. This variability in kinase content also determines the degree of the epinephrine effect (formation of phosphorylase a) in these hybrid females. The hybrid mice (F1, F2, and first backcross) were obtained from crosses of I/FnLn and C57BL/FnLn mice. Adult mice of the I strain completely lack phosphorylase kinase in skeletal muscle and have a high glycogen content.This paper was presented at a symposium entitled Genetic Control of Mammalian Metabolism held at The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, Maine, June 30–July 2, 1969.

A new mutant causing jaundice in mice is reported. Allelism tests indicate that it is not allelic with known hemolytic anemia mutants in mice [hemolytic anemia (sphha), jaundiced (ja), normoblastic anemia (nb), and spherocytosis (sph and sph2Be)]. The jaundiced condition appears in young mice at about 24 hours postpartum and is due to a major increase in unconjugated bilirubin in serum compared to normal controls. Adult mutant mice are not jaundiced and bilirubin levels do not differ from normal mice. Adult male mutants have reduced testes size and no viable sperm. Female mutants are fertile but overall maternal performance is reduced as indicated by increased mortality and reduced growth rate of pups. Genetic tests indicate that a single autosomal recessive gene is responsible for the condition. We propose that the mutant be designated hyper-unconjugated bilirubinemia, with the gene symbol hub. 相似文献

An electrophoretic variant of the enzyme inosine triphosphatase was found by screening inbred strains of mice. Strains with the slower-migrating variant include BALB/cJ, DBA/1J, and PL/J. The Itp locus was mapped between the -2-microglobulin (B2m) and the agouti (a) loci on chromosome 2. The mapping of Itp on chromosome 2 identifies a chromosomal segment that has been conserved since the divergence of lineages leading to mouse and man.This work was supported by Grants GM18684 and CA33093 from the National Institutes of Health.

R-1 (1450g) and R-2 (25,000g) liver fractions from T/t
6 and B6CBAF1 hybrid mice were analyzed for their protein content, mitochondria concentrations, and activities of three respiratory-chain enzymes of the mitochondrial inner membrane: cytochrome c oxidase (ferrocytochrome c: oxygen oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.9.3.1), -glycerophosphate dehydrogenase [l-glycerol-3-phosphate: (acceptor) oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.1.99.5], and succinate-cytochrome c reductase. Only cytochrome c oxidase activity, calculated as units per 1010 mitochondria, was significantly lower in both R-1 and R-2 fractions of T/t
6 mice. Cytochrome c oxidase activity varied greatly among T/t
6 mice, as did their liver mitochondria concentrations and body weights. Cytochrome c oxidase activity in the R-1 fraction of T/t
6 mice, calculated as units per 1010 mitochondria per gram of body weight, averaged about 40% lower than in B6CBAF1 mice. -Glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity was often elevated in T/t
6 mice, particularly in the R-2 fraction. The T/t locus, a complex genetic locus on chromosome 17, may contain genes important to the function and biogenesis of mitochondria.This investigation was supported by institutional funds from the Jackson Laboratory and by an allocation from NIH Biomedical Research Support Grant (RR-05545).

We reconfirmed that the LD50S of hemolytic Enterococcus faecalis strains were significantly less than those of nonhemolytic E. faecalis strains in normal mice. Hemolysin produced by E. faecalis lysed human, horse, rabbit, and mouse erythrocytes, but not cow and sheep erythrocytes. Sphingomyelin comprises a part of the lipid composition of the erythrocyte membrane of all mammalian species tested. But phosphatidylcholine exists only in human, horse, rabbit, and mouse. These two lipids inhibited lysis of horse erythrocytes by hemolytic E. faecalis. Phosphatidylcholine is probably the binding component on the membrane of erythrocytes for E. faecalis hemolysin. The hemolytic culture supernatant lysed not only erythrocytes but also mouse polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and macrophages. 相似文献

Hemolytic activity of Serratia marcescens 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

A cell-bound hemolytic activity was found in several strains of Serratia marcescens. One Serratia cell per ten erythrocytes was sufficient to cause complete lysis of human erythrocytes within 2 h in the liquid assay. The hemolytic activity resided in the membrane fraction and could be inactivated by incubating cells with proteases. The hemolytic activity was greatly enhanced in actively metabolizing Serratia cells and was partially controlled by the iron supply. Hemolysis was accompanied by degradation of erythrocyte membrane proteins (band 3 and 6, glycophorin) and was independent of the blood group. The exoprotease secreted by S. marcescens in large amounts was not involved in hemolysis. Comparison with various hemolytic strains of Escherichia coli showed that hemolysis of erythrocytes was more pronounced with S. marcescens than with E. coli. In contrast to hemolysis by E. coli, lysis of erythrocytes by S. marcescens was not enhanced by Ca2+ ions.Dedicated to Professor Dr. Gerhart Drews on the occasion of his 60th birthday 相似文献
