Ammonia assimilation in Corynebacterium glutamicum and a glutamate dehydrogenase-deficient mutant 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Martin Tesch Bernhard J. Eikmanns Albert A. de Graaf Hermann Sahm 《Biotechnology letters》1998,20(10):953-957
In the wild-type of Corynebacterium glutamicum, the specific activity of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) remained constant at 1.3 U (mg protein)–1 when raising the ammonia (NH4) concentration in the growth medium from 1 to 90 mM. In contrast, the glutamine synthetase (GS) and glutamate synthase (GOGAT) activities decreased from 1.1 U (mg protein)–1 and 42 mU (mg protein)–1, respectively, to less than 10 % of these values at NH4 concentrations > 10 mM suggesting that under these conditions the GDH reaction is the primary NH4 assimilation pathway. Consistent with this suggestion, a GDH-deficient C. glutamicum mutant showed slower growth at NH4 concentrations 10 mM and, in contrast to the wild-type, did not grow in the presence of the GS inhibitor methionine sulfoximine. © Rapid Science Ltd. 1998 相似文献

不同耐盐性水稻幼苗根氨同化酶对盐胁迫的反应 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
在盐胁迫下,检测了耐盐性不同的水稻(Oryza sativa L.)品种根部氨同化酶及其相关参数的变化。结果表明,根的可溶性蛋白、谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)及依赖于NADH的谷氨酸合酶(NADH-GOGAT)活性在高盐浓度下不同程度地降低,其影响大小依次为早花二号(盐敏感品种)、金珠一号(正常栽培品种)、津稻779(耐盐品种),与其耐盐性相一致。在盐胁迫条件下,在耐盐性较高的水稻品种中, GS和GOGAT活性比盐敏感品种高,NH4 浓度维持在较低的水平。Native-PAGE和活性染色结果表明,GSrb更容易受到外界环境的影响。在高浓度盐的胁迫下,早花二号、金珠一号的依赖于NADH的谷氨酸脱氢酶(NADH-GDH)活性都有较显著的升高,津稻779却无明显的变化,这和NH4 含量的变化相一致。盐不同程度地导致可溶性糖(TSS)在金珠一号和津稻779根部积累,而在早花2号的根部,可溶性糖的水平则随盐浓度的不同而表现出不同的变化。在所检测的品种中,脯氨酸的含量均有不同程度的升高,但在高盐浓度下,盐敏感品种的含量较低。这些结果提示,不同的水稻品种对盐胁迫的敏感程度与该品种GS以及GOGAT活性的高低有关。 相似文献

Seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. White Kidney were germinated and grown either in a nitrogen-free or in an ammonia-supplied medium. The changes in the soluble protein concentration and in the levels of glutamine synthetase (GS, EC 6.3.1.2), NADH–glutamate synthase (NADH-GOGAT, EC 1.4.1.14), ferredoxin-glutamate synthase (Fd-GOGAT, EC 1.4.7.1) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH, EC 1.4.1.2), both NADH- and NAD+ -dependent, were examined in cotyledons and roots during the first 10 days after sowing. Soluble protein declined rapidly in the cotyledons and increased slightly in the roots. GS activity was initially high both in cotyledons and roots but subsequently decreased during seedling growth. Exogenous ammonia hardly affected GS activity. High levels of NADH-GOGAT were present both in cotyledons and roots during the first days of germination. The activity then gradually declined in both organs. In contrast, Fd-GOGAT in cotyledons was initially low and progressively increased with seedling development. In roots, the levels of Fd-GOGAT were higher in young than in old seedlings. Supply of ammonia to the seedlings increased the levels of NADH-GOGAT and Fd-GOGAT both in cotyledons and roots. NADH-GDH (aminating) activity gradually increased during germination. In contrast, the levels of NAD+ -GDH (deaminating) activity were highest during the first days of germination. Exogenous ammonia did not significantly affect the activities of GDH. 相似文献

Glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamine synthetase, glutamate synthase, glutamate puruvate transaminase and glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase have been assayed in developing testa-pericarp and endosperm of two wheat varieties, namely Shera (11.6% protein) and C-306 (9.8% protein). On per organ basis, activities of all the enzymes studied, except glutamine synthetase, increased during development. Glutamine synthetase activity decreased during development in the testa-pericarp, whereas, no glutamine synthetase activity could be detected in endosperm of either variety at any stage of development. Compared to testa-pericarp, endosperm had higher activities of glutamate synthase and glutamate pyruvate transaminase. On the whole, enzyme activities in Shera were higher, as compared to C-306. Developmental patterns and relative levels of enzyme activities in the two varieties were more or less the same, when expressed on dry weight basis or as specific activities. The results suggest that ammonia assimilation in developing wheat grain takes place by the glutamate dehydrogenase pathway in the endosperm; and both by the glutamate dehydrogenase and glutamine synthetase—glutamate synthase pathways in the testa-pericarp. 相似文献

Photosynthesis and Dark Respiration in Leaves of Different Ages of Partly Flooded Maize Seedlings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Maize seedlings were flooded for periods from 1 to 15 days, and the leaves of different ages were then taken to examine photosynthesis, dark respiration, transpiration, chlorophyll content, and some morphometric parameters. The responses of leaves to root submergence essentially depended on the leaf layer and the treatment duration. A short-term flooding (1–24 h) induced primary stress responses in the first leaf. Photosynthesis and respiration in this leaf oscillated around the control levels with amplitudes of ±15–25% and ±40–60%, respectively. After a longer flooding, the CO2 exchange in the second leaf was suppressed, while oxygen uptake was stimulated. In the third leaf, which was formed during submergence, the photosynthetic rate increased and the respiratory activity decreased. The transpiration rate did not change in these leaves for 15 days of flooding. The hypoxic treatment, at its early stages, retarded growth and disturbed the source–sink relations. At later stages the plants adapted to hypoxic environment: the seedling growth was restored, which elevated the demand for assimilates and stimulated photosynthesis. It is concluded that plants overcome negative impact of the root hypoxia at the systemic level. 相似文献

Seasonal changes in glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2), glutamate synthase (EC 2.6.1.53), and glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3) were measured in both senescing leaf and bark tissues of ‘Golden Delicious’ apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.). From the measured enzyme activities we attempted to estimate the in vivo catalytic potentials of the enzymes with special reference to nitrogen mobilization and conservation of senescing apple trees. The cumulative glutamine synthetase activity of leaf tissue was about three times higher than that of bark. The estimated catalytic potential of leaf glutamine synthetase was 800-fold higher than the actual protein nitrogen loss of senescing leaves. The cumulative glutamate synthase activity of bark was about six times higher than that of leaf. The estimated catalytic potential of bark glutamate synthase was 160-times higher than the actual protein nitrogen gain in that tissue. The cumulative glutamate dehydrogenase activities in leaf and bark tissue were approximately the same. However, the catalytic potential of leaf glutamate dehydrogenase was twice that of leaf glutamate synthase. It is thus concluded that the physiological role of glutamine synthetase in senescing leaf tissue is to furnish the amide(s) prior to mobilization of nitrogen to storage tissue. The higher activity of glutamate synthase in bark tissue could provide a mechanism to transform the imported amide nitrogen to amino nitrogen of glutamate for storage protein synthesis. The possible regulatory factors upon the activity of these enzymes in the tissues of senescing apple trees are discussed. 相似文献

Wrinkled-seeded pea mutants (Pisum sativum L., genotypes rrrbrb-, rrRbRb-, and RRrbrb-) have seeds with reduced, but different, starch content and modified starch properties. Analysis of these mutants revealed an enhanced capacity of root nodules for symbiotic nitrogen fixation and of host plant organs for assimilation of ammonium nitrogen. This observation was confirmed by morphological data on organization of symbiotic system, by elevated nitrogenase activity, high protein accumulation in plants due to nitrogen fixation, and by enhanced activity of glutamine synthase in leaves and glutamate dehydrogenase in roots of mutants, as compared with the organs of wild-type pea. It is supposed that the aforementioned advantages of mutants are related to accumulation in seeds of elevated protein reserves that satisfy their demand for nitrogen during formation of symbiotic systems. 相似文献

Hebeloma cylindrosporum strain h 17 was grown on media containing either glutamate or ammonium as nitrogen source. Growth tests and in vitro activity measurements revealed that both glutamine synthetase (GS. EC 6.3.1.2) and NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP-GDH, EC 1.4.1.4) are fully functional in wild type mycelia grown on glutamate or ammonium as sole nitrogen source. However, NADP-GDH appeared to be more active than GS in stationary growing mycelia. NADP-GDH is also able to sustain adequate ammonium assimilation in methionine sulfoximine (MSX)-treated mycelia since they grew as well as mycelia fed with ammonium alone. The NADP-GDH also appeared to be L-glutamate inducible whereas GS was repressed by ammonium. The NADP-GDH deficient strain, when transferred from a glutamate containing medium to an ammonium containing medium, exhibited a derepressed GS, although this enzyme did not fully substitute for the deficiency of NADP-GDH in ammonium assimilation. The low NADP-GDH activity of the mutant strain exhibited a reduced mobility on a 6% constant polyacrylamide gel. By contrast, the two enzymes had identical molecular weights, estimated to be ca 295 kDa on gradient polyacrylamide gel. The involvement of NADP-GDH and GS enzymes in nitrogen assimilation is discussed. 相似文献

Activities of ammonium assimilating enzymes glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), glutamine synthetase (GS), glutamate synthase (GOGAT),
aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) as well as the amino acid content were higher in nodules
compared to roots. Their activities increased at 40 and 60 d after sowing, with a peak at 90 d, a time of maximum nitrogenase
activity. The GS/GOGAT ratio had a positive correlation with the amino acid content in nodules. Higher activities of AST than
ALT may be due to lower glutamine and higher asparagine content in xylem. The data indicated that glutamine synthetase and
glutamate synthase function as the main route for the assimilation of fixed N, while NADH-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase
may function at higher NH4
+ concentration in young and senescing nodules. Enzyme activities in lentil roots reflected a capacity to assimilate N for
making the amino acids they may need for both growth and export to upper parts of the plant.

Photosynthesis and nitrogen relationships in leaves of C3 plants 总被引:53,自引:0,他引:53

Summary The photosynthetic capacity of leaves is related to the nitrogen content primarily bacause the proteins of the Calvin cycle and thylakoids represent the majority of leaf nitrogen. To a first approximation, thylakoid nitrogen is proportional to the chlorophyll content (50 mol thylakoid N mol-1 Chl). Within species there are strong linear relationships between nitrogen and both RuBP carboxylase and chlorophyll. With increasing nitrogen per unit leaf area, the proportion of total leaf nitrogen in the thylakoids remains the same while the proportion in soluble protein increases. In many species, growth under lower irradiance greatly increases the partitioning of nitrogen into chlorophyll and the thylakoids, while the electron transport capacity per unit of chlorophyll declines. If growth irradiance influences the relationship between photosynthetic capacity and nitrogen content, predicting nitrogen distribution between leaves in a canopy becomes more complicated. When both photosynthetic capacity and leaf nitrogen content are expressed on the basis of leaf area, considerable variation in the photosynthetic capacity for a given leaf nitrogen content is found between species. The variation reflects different strategies of nitrogen partitioning, the electron transport capacity per unit of chlorophyll and the specific activity of RuBP carboxylase. Survival in certain environments clearly does not require maximising photosynthetic capacity for a given leaf nitrogen content. Species that flourish in the shade partition relatively more nitrogen into the thylakoids, although this is associated with lower photosynthetic capacity per unit of nitrogen. 相似文献

Evidence is presented which shows that NH3 assimilation in Chlamydomonas occurs exclusively via the glutamate synthase cycle in illuminated and darkened cells and those in which the internal level of NH3 is elevated. This result indicates that glutamate dehydrogenase probably plays a catabolic rather than anabolic role in the N nutrition of the alga. Glutamine synthetase and glutamate dehydrogenase were characterized and their kinetic properties shown to be consistent with these proposals. It is suggested that reversible activity modulations of glutamine synthetase regulate the operation of the glutamate synthase cycle in the light but the availability of reductant and ATP limits its activity in darkened cells. The possible involvement of the two glutamate synthase enzymes in both light and dark assimilation is discussed. 相似文献

The activities of glutamate dehydrogenase, asparagine synthetase, and total glutamine synthetase in the organs of the white lupine (Lupinus albus L.) plants were measured during plant growth and development. In addition, the dynamics of free amino acids and amides in plant organs was followed. It was shown that the change in the nutrition type was important for controlling enzyme activities in the organs examined and, consequently, for directing the pathway of ammonium nitrogen assimilation. As long as the plants remained heterotrophic, glutamine-dependent asparagine synthetase of cotyledons and glutamine synthetase of leaves apparently played a major role in the assimilation of ammonium nitrogen. In symbiotrophic plants, root nodules became an exclusive site of asparagine synthesis, and the role of leaf glutamine synthetase increased. Unlike glutamine synthetase and asparagine synthetase, glutamate dehydrogenase activity was present in all organs examined and was less dependent on the nutrition type. This was also indicated by a weak correlation of glutamate dehydrogenase activity with the dynamics of free amino acid and amide content in these organs. It is supposed that glutamine synthetase plays a leading role in both the primary assimilation of ammonium, produced during symbiotic fixation of molecular nitrogen in root nodules, and in its secondary assimilation in cotyledons and leaves. On the other hand, secondary nitrogen assimilation in the axial organs occurs via an alternative glutamate dehydrogenase pathway. 相似文献

Assimilation of ammonium ions and reutilization of nitrogen in rice (Oryza sativa L.) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A major source of inorganic nitrogen for rice plants grown in paddy soil is ammonium ions. The ammonium ions are actively taken up by the roots via ammonium transporters and subsequently assimilated into the amide residue of glutamine (Gln) by the reaction of glutamine synthetase (GS) in the roots. The Gln is converted into glutamate (Glu), which is a central amino acid for the synthesis of a number of amino acids, by the reaction of glutamate synthase (GOGAT). Although a small gene family for both GS and GOGAT is present in rice, ammonium-dependent and cell type-specific expression suggest that cytosolic GS1;2 and plastidic NADH-GOGAT1 are responsible for the primary assimilation of ammonium ions in the roots. In the plant top, approximately 80% of the total nitrogen in the panicle is remobilized through the phloem from senescing organs. Since the major form of nitrogen in the phloem sap is Gln, GS in the senescing organs and GOGAT in developing organs are important for nitrogen remobilization and reutilization, respectively. Recent work with a knock-out mutant of rice clearly showed that GS1;1 is responsible for this process. Overexpression studies together with age- and cell type-specific expression strongly suggest that NADH-GOGAT1 is important for the reutilization of transported Gln in developing organs. The overall process of nitrogen utilization within the plant is discussed. 相似文献

研究半干旱地区土壤碳、氮、磷化学计量特征,了解其空间变化规律,有助于揭示半干旱地区C、N、P循环对全球气候变化的响应。本研究以半干旱区的马衔山为对象,选择5个海拔的7个样地,采集0~15、15~30 cm层的土壤,测定其有机碳(SOC)、全氮(TN)、全磷(TP)、pH、含水率等理化性质,分析其SOC、TN、TP化学计量与土壤理化因子之间的关系。结果表明:(1) 0~15 cm土壤SOC、TN、TP含量高于15~30 cm土壤。表层土壤SOC、TN含量随海拔升高呈增加趋势,TP含量随海拔升高变化较小。(2) C∶N随海拔增加呈先增加后降低趋势,C∶P、N∶P随海拔升高均呈增加趋势。(3)在0~15 cm土壤中,pH与SOC、TN含量及C∶P呈显著负相关,在15~30 cm土层中,pH与SOC、TN、TP含量及化学计量特征关系不显著;土壤含水率与0~15、15~30 cm层土壤中SOC、TN含量均呈极显著正相关。本研究显示,在半干旱区的马衔山地区,土壤含水率随海拔增加而增加,而SOC、TN含量及C∶P、N∶P也呈增加趋势,土壤养分含量及化学计量均受土壤含水率影响。 相似文献

The effect of sulphur deprivation and irradiance (180 and 750 µmol m–2 s–1) on plant growth and enzyme activities of carbon, nitrogen, and sulphur metabolism were studied in maize (Zea mays L. Pioneer cv. Latina) plants over a 15-d-period of growth. Increase in irradiance resulted in an enhancement of several enzyme activities and generally accelerated the development of S deficiency. ATP sulphurylase (ATPs; EC 2.7.7.4) and o-acetylserine sulphydrylase (OASs; EC 4.2.99.8) showed a particular and different pattern as both enzymes exhibited maximum activity after 10 d from the beginning of deprivation period. Hence in maize leaves the enzymes of C, N, and S metabolism were differently regulated during the leaf development by irradiance and sulphur starvation. 相似文献

利用15N示踪技术,研究了施钾对甘薯发根结薯期、薯块膨大期地上和地下部氮素转移分配、光合特性及氮代谢酶活性的影响.结果表明: 在发根结薯期,施钾显著提高15N向地上部的转移分配,其中K3(K2O, 300 mg·kg-1)处理与对照相比15N向叶片转移速率提高了76.2%,15N积累量提高了92.1%.在薯块膨大期,随施钾量增加地上部叶片15N总分配率由33.7%降低至24.4%,块根15N分配率由5.8%升高至17%,其中K3处理块根15N积累量是对照的3倍.两个关键生长期硝酸还原酶、谷氨酸脱氢酶、谷氨酰胺合酶、谷氨酸合酶和净光合速率(Pn)均随施钾量的增加而提高.逐步回归分析表明,氮代谢酶活性和Pn是影响甘薯15N转移和分配的主要因素(R分别为0.965和0.942),通径分析表明,在发根结薯期主要通过促进硝酸还原酶和谷氨酸脱氢酶介导的氮素催化能力促进氮素向地上部分配;在薯块膨大期主要通过提高谷氨酰胺合酶/谷氨酸合酶循环介导的氮素同化能力促进氮素向地下部分配. 相似文献

蔗糖对不同氮源培养下水稻根部氨同化相关酶活性的影响 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
糖、有机酸以及氨基酸影响碳-氮代谢过程中的相关酶的基因表达和活性。将蔗糖分别加入到含有相同氮素浓度的(NH4)2SO4(NH4^+)或丙氨酸(Ala)作为氮源的营养液中培养水稻,测定幼苗根的谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)、依赖于NADH的谷氨酸合酶(NADH-GOGAT)、磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧化酶(PEPC)和依赖于NADP的异柠檬酸脱氢酶(NADP-ICDH)的活性。结果显示,蔗糖诱导NH4^+氮源中幼苗根的GS、NADH-GOGAT活性,抑制Ala氮源中幼苗根的这两种酶活性,蔗糖对PEPC和NADP-ICDH活性的影响也不同;未加蔗糖时,以Ala作为氮源的幼苗根的GS、NADH-GOGAT、PEPC和NADP-ICDH的活性明显高于以NH4^+为氮源时的活性;生物量和蛋白质水平的变化与上述参数的变化基本一致。基于Ala碳骨架的存在,这些结果表明,碳/氮平衡是影响这些酶活性差别表达的主要原因。 相似文献
