Addition of insulin to wheat-germ-lectin-purified glycoproteins derived from rat hepatocytes or rabbit brown adipose tissue results in the increased phosphorylation of a Mr-110 000 protein. This naturally occurring glycoprotein appears as a monomeric structure and is not part of the insulin receptor itself, since it is not immunoprecipitated by highly specific antibodies to insulin receptor. Phosphorylation of the Mr-110 000 protein and autophosphorylation of the receptor beta-subunit (Mr 95 000) are stimulated by insulin in a remarkably similar dose-dependent fasion, with half-maximal stimulation at 1 nM-insulin. Further, kinetic studies suggest that the phosphorylation of the Mr-110 000 protein occurs after autophosphorylation of the insulin-receptor kinase. In conclusion, the present identification of an endogenous substrate for the insulin-receptor kinase could suggest that some, if not all, effects of insulin may be mediated through activation of this kinase. 相似文献

Schistosoma mansoni surface glycoproteins. Analysis of their expression and antigenicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Surface glycoproteins from newly transformed schistosomula of Schistosoma mansoni have been identified by surface radioiodination and lectin-affinity chromatography. From the glycoconjugates bound by the three lectins used, concanavalin A, peanut agglutinin and fucose-binding protein, only in the concanavalin-A-bound fractions were glycoproteins identified. Changes in concanavalin-A-binding glycoproteins were detected after transformation and early maturation of the schistosomula. Some glycoproteins disappeared (Mr 38 000, 29 000 and 25 000), some appeared independently of host molecules (Mr 19 000), others only appeared after culture in human serum (Mr 45 000). Two major glycoproteins of Mr 32 000 and 16 000 were detected on all stages examined. Within the total set of surface glycoproteins identified on 3-h schistosomula only the strong Mr-38 000-32 000 complex was found to be antigenic. Thus many major low-molecular-mass surface glycoproteins of the parasite are not recognised as antigens by immune animals. The separation of only the Mr-38 000-32 000 antigens by concanavalin A affinity chromatography indicates the feasibility of using this method in conjunction with immunoaffinity columns to purity these molecules. 相似文献

Plasma-membrane glycoproteins from the three different functional domains of the rat hepatocyte were radioactively labelled by oxidation with NaIO4, followed by reduction with NaB3H4. Analysis of the radioactively labelled glycoproteins by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of at least 12 major sialoglycoproteins in each different region of the hepatocyte surface. The Mr-110 000 component was homogeneously distributed over the plasma membrane, whereas the Mr-90 000 polypeptide was only located at the sinusoidal face. These radiolabelled glycoproteins were solubilized in 1% Triton X-100, and the soluble fraction was subjected to affinity chromatography on Sepharose-conjugated wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA). The labelled glycoproteins were poorly bound to WGA. Membrane glycoproteins were also labelled by the galactose oxidase/NaB3H4 method. The results show that the polypeptides with apparent Mr 170 000 from the sinusoidal, 230 000 from the canalicular and 170 000 from the lateral membranes were specifically labelled. When the membranes were treated with neuraminidase and galactose oxidase/NaB3H4, the electrophoretic patterns showed changes in the apparent Mr values of the glycoproteins, owing to loss of sialic acid, and a clear increase in labelling in the sinusoidal and canalicular membranes compared with the lateral membranes. When these labelled membranes were solubilized in 1% Triton X-100 and subjected to affinity chromatography on Sepharose-conjugated Ricinus communis agglutinin and/or Lens culinaris agglutinin, the results showed that the former columns efficiently bound the radiolabelled glycoproteins, whereas the latter columns bound poorly. The results show that there is a differential distribution of glycoproteins along the hepatocyte's surface. 相似文献

A major class of ankyrin-binding glycoproteins have been identified in adult rat brain of 186, 155, and 140 kD that are alternatively spliced products of the same pre-mRNA. Characterization of cDNAs demonstrated that ankyrin-binding glycoproteins (ABGPs) share 72% amino acid sequence identity with chicken neurofascin, a membrane-spanning neural cell adhesion molecule in the Ig super-family expressed in embryonic brain. ABGP polypeptides have the following features consistent with a role as ankyrin-binding proteins in vitro and in vivo: (a) ABGPs and ankyrin associate as pure proteins in a 1:1 molar stoichiometry; (b) the ankyrin-binding site is located in the COOH-terminal 21 kD of ABGP186 which contains the predicted cytoplasmic domain; (c) ABGP186 is expressed at approximately the same levels as ankyrin (15 pmoles/milligram of membrane protein); and (d) ABGP polypeptides are co- expressed with the adult form of ankyrinB late in postnatal development and are colocalized with ankyrinB by immunofluorescence. Similarity in amino acid sequence and conservation of sites of alternative splicing indicate that genes encoding ABGPs and neurofascin share a common ancestor. However, the major differences in developmental expression reported for neurofascin in embryos versus the late postnatal expression of ABGPs suggest that ABGPs and neurofascin represent products of gene duplication events that have subsequently evolved in parallel with distinct roles. The predicted cytoplasmic domains of rat ABGPs and chicken neurofascin are nearly identical to each other and closely related to a group of nervous system cell adhesion molecules with variable extracellular domains, which includes L1, Nr-CAM, and Ng- CAM of vertebrates, and neuroglian of Drosophila. The ankyrin-binding site of rat ABGPs is localized to the C-terminal 200 residues which encompass the cytoplasmic domain, suggesting the hypothesis that ability to associate with ankyrin may be a shared feature of neurofascin and related nervous system cell adhesion molecules. 相似文献

An assay has been developed to measure association of brain ankyrin with protein site(s) in brain membranes that are independent of spectrin and tubulin, behave as integral membrane proteins, and appear to be similar in several respects to the erythrocyte anion channel. Brain membranes were depleted of ankyrin, spectrin, and other peripheral membrane proteins by a brief incubation in 0.1 M sodium hydroxide. Binding of ankyrin to these membranes fulfilled experimentally testable criteria for a specific protein-protein association. Binding was optimal at physiological values for ionic strength and pH, was of high affinity (Kd = 20-60 nM), and the capacity of 25 pmol/mg of brain membrane protein is in the same range as the number of spectrin tetramers (30 pmol/mg). The membrane-binding site(s) for brain ankyrin are likely to be related in some way to the cytoplasmic domain of the erythrocyte anion channel since binding was inhibited by the anion channel domain and by erythrocyte ankyrin. The binding site(s) for brain ankyrin were released from the membrane by limited proteolysis as active water-soluble fragments capable of inhibiting binding of ankyrin to membranes. Ankyrin-binding fragments of Mr = 40,000 and 68,000 were selectively bound to an erythrocyte ankyrin affinity column. The fragment of Mr = 40,000 is close to the size of the cytoplasmic domain of the erythrocyte anion channel. It is likely based on these results that membrane attachment proteins for ankyrin are present in brain and other tissues and that these membrane proteins have domains homologous at least in conformation to the ankyrin-binding site of the erythrocyte anion channel. 相似文献

Two major rat thymocyte surface glycoproteins, the leucocyte-common (L-C) antigen and the leucocyte sialoglycoprotein (LSGP), were induced to cap independently, using the specific monoclonal antibodies OX-1 and W3/13, respectively, and an appropriate fluorescently labeled second antibody layer. The caps were subsequently isolated from detergent extracted cells by a procedure involving gentle shearing. TRITC-phalloidin staining of the isolated caps demonstrated the presence of F-actin within these structures, and lectin-affinity staining after fractionation on SDS polyacrylamide gels revealed the presence of a concanavalin A (Con A) binding protein of relative molecular weight (Mr) 205,000, gp205, in both the L-C antigen and LSGP caps, but absent from the detergent-insoluble residue isolated from unchallenged cells. These results suggest that gp205 may be involved in the association of cross-linked glycoproteins with the cytoskeleton during capping. 相似文献

Colocalization and coprecipitation of ankyrin and Na+,K+-ATPase in kidney epithelial cells 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Interactions between integral proteins of the plasma membrane and the cytoskeleton may be important for localizing certain membrane proteins in a nonrandom fashion at specialized domains of the cell surface. Here, we show that ankyrin, the key protein for the linkage of the erythrocyte anion exchanger (band 3) to the spectrin-based membrane cytoskeleton, is also present in kidney distal tubular cells where ankyrin is precisely colocalized with Na+,K+-ATPase. Both proteins are confined to the basolateral plasma membrane and are absent from the apical membrane, the junctional complex and the membrane surface that contacts the basal lamina. Purified Na+,K+-ATPase of sheep and pig kidney contains a binding site for erythrocyte ankyrin as demonstrated by immunoprecipitation experiments. A band 3-like binding site for ankyrin is likely, since binding of ankyrin to Na+,K+-ATPase could be inhibited in a competitive fashion by the isolated cytoplasmic domain of erythrocyte band 3. 相似文献

This report describes initial characterization of a 440-kD isoform of brain ankyrin (ankyrinB) representing an alternatively spliced mRNA product of the gene encoding the major isoform of ankyrin in adult human brain (Otto, E., M. Kunimoto, T. McLaughlin, V. Bennett, J. Cell Biology. 114:241-253). Northern and immunoblot analyses indicate that 440-kD ankyrinB includes the spectrin and membrane-binding domains as well as a regulatory domain of the major 220-kD isoform. 440-kD ankyrinB contains, in addition, a sequence of a predicted size of 220 kD which is inserted between the regulatory domain and spectrin/membrane-binding domains. 440-kD ankyrinB has properties expected of a peripherally associated membrane-skeletal protein: it is exclusively present in the particulate fraction of brain homogenates, is extracted with NaOH, and remains associated with Triton-X-100-resistant structures. Expression of 440-kD ankyrinB in rat brain began at birth before other ankyrins could be detected, peaked 10 d after birth, and then decreased progressively to 30% of the maximum in adults. Expression of the 220-kD ankyrinB and ankyrinR (erythroid ankyrin) began approximately 10 d after the 440-kD isoform, increased rapidly between 10 and 15 d after birth, and finally achieved their maximal levels in adults. 440-kD ankyrinB is present in approximately equivalent amounts in all regions of neonatal brain while in adult brain it is present in highest levels in cerebellum and lowest in brain stem. 440-kD ankyrinB was localized by immunofluorescence in regions of neonatal and adult brain containing primarily dendrites and unmyelinated axons. 440-kD ankyrinB thus may play a specialized role in neuronal processes. 相似文献

The catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase-1 and protein phosphatase 2A are distinct gene products 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Three forms of protein phosphatase-1 were isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle that had Mr values of 37 000, 34 000 and 33 000 determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. Each species dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase very much faster than the alpha-subunit, was inhibited by inhibitors 1 and 2 with equal potency, and was converted to a form dependent on glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP for activity by incubation with inhibitor-2. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or Staphylococcus aureus proteinase followed by SDS gel electrophoresis showed a very similar pattern of cleavage products for all three forms. The Mr-37 000 and Mr-34 000 species were converted to the Mr-33 000 form by incubation with chymotrypsin. It is concluded that the Mr-33 000 and Mr-34 000 forms are derived from the Mr-37 000 component by limited proteolysis. Conversion of the Mr-37 000 to the Mr-33 000 form was accompanied by a two-fold increase in activity, indicating that an Mr-4000 fragment at one end of the polypeptide is an inhibitory domain that decreases enzyme activity. The catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A from rabbit skeletal muscle had an Mr of 36 000 determined by SDS gel electrophoresis and its specific activity (3 kU/mg) was much lower than that of the Mr-37 000 (15-20 kU/mg) or Mr-33/34 000 (40-50 kU/mg) forms of protein phosphatase-1. It dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase 4-5-fold faster than the beta-subunit, was unaffected by inhibitor-1 or inhibitor-2, and preincubation with the latter protein did not result in the production of a glycogen synthase kinase-3 and Mg-ATP-dependent form of the enzyme. Digestion with chymotrypsin did not alter the electrophoretic mobility of protein phosphatase 2A under conditions that caused quantitative conversion of the Mr-37 000 form of protein phosphatase-1 to the Mr-33 000 species. Digestion with cyanogen bromide or S. aureus proteinase, followed by SDS gel electrophoresis, showed a quite different pattern of cleavage products to those observed with protein phosphatase 1. Antibody to protein phosphatase-2A raised in sheep did not cross-react with any of the forms of protein phosphatase-1, as judged by immunoelectrophoretic and immunotitration experiments. It is concluded that protein phosphatase-1 and protein phosphatase-2A are distinct gene products. 相似文献

Spectrin, the major cytoskeletal protein in erythrocytes, is localized on the inner membrane surface in association with membrane-spanning glycoproteins and with intramembrane particles. The presence of a specific, high-affinity protein binding site for spectrin on the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane has been established by measurement of reassociation of spectrin with spectrin-depleted inside-out vesicles. A 72,000 Mr proteolytic fragment of this attachment protein has been purified, which bound to spectrin in solution and competed for reassociation of spectrin with vesicles. A 215,000 Mr polypeptide has been identified as the precursor of the spectrin-binding fragment. The membrane attachment protein for spectrin was named ankyrin, and has been purified and characterized. Ankyrin has been demonstrated to be tightly associated in detergent extracts of vesicles with band 3, a major membrane-spanning polypeptide, and to bind directly to a proteolytic fragment derived from the cytoplasmic domain of band 3. Ankyrin is thus an example of a protein that directly links a cytoplasmic structural protein to an integral membrane protein. The organization of the erythrocyte membrane has implications for more complex cell types since immunoreactive forms of ankyrin distinct from myosin or filamin have been detected by radioimmunoassay in a variety of cells and tissues. Indirect immunofluorescent staining of cultured cells reveals immunoreactive forms of ankyrin in a cytoplasmic meshwork and in a punctate distribution over nuclei. The staining changes dramatically during mitosis, with concentration of stain at the spindle poles in metaphase and intense staining of the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis. 相似文献

The cleavable cross-linking reagent dithiobis (succinimidyl propionate) or DTSP was shown to link 125I-labeled vasoactive intestinal peptide (125I-VIP) covalently to its receptors in rat intestinal epithelial membranes. DTSP treatment of 125I-VIP-labeled membranes inhibited the dissociation of VIP-receptor complexes in a way which was dependent on both time and concentration (ED50 = 200 microM). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of membrane proteins revealed three 125I-VIP-protein complexes of Mr 76 000, 36 000 and 17 000. The labeling of those compounds was not observed when: (a) treatment of membranes by DTSP was omitted; (b) the reagent quench, ammonium acetate, was added together with DTSP; (c) DTSP-treated membranes were incubated with 2-mercaptoethanol which reduces the disulfide bond present within DTSP. Labeling of Mr-76 000 and Mr-36 000 complexes was specific in that it could be abolished by native VIP, while the labeling of the Mr-17 000 was not. Densitometric scanning of autoradiographs indicated that: (a) labeling of the Mr-76 000 complex was abolished by low VIP concentrations (0.03--10 nM), by VIP agonists with the relative potency VIP greater than a peptide having N-terminal histidine and C-terminal isoleucine amide greater than secretin, and by GTP (10(-5)--1 mM) but was unaffected by various other peptide hormones; (b) labeling of the Mr-36 000 complex was inhibited by high VIP concentrations (1--300 nM), by VIP agonists at high concentrations but was not affected by GTP and various peptide hormones. Assuming one molecule of 125I-VIP was bound per molecule of protein, two proteins with Mr-73 000 and 33 000 were identified as VIP binding sites. The Mr-73 000 protein displays many characteristics (affinity, specificity, discriminating power toward agonists, sensitivity to GTP regulation) of the high-affinity VIP receptors mediating adenylate cyclase activation. The Mr-33 000 protein displays the characteristics (affinity, specificity) of a low-affinity VIP binding site. This study thus shows the molecular characteristics of the VIP receptor and further argues for the molecular heterogeneity of VIP binding sites. 相似文献

Brain ankyrin. A membrane-associated protein with binding sites for spectrin, tubulin, and the cytoplasmic domain of the erythrocyte anion channel 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26
Brain ankyrin was purified from pig brain membranes in milligram quantities by a procedure involving affinity chromatography on erythrocyte spectrinagarose. Brain ankyrin included two polypeptides of Mr = 210,000 and 220,000 that were nearly identical by peptide mapping and were monomers in solution. Brain ankyrin and erythrocyte ankyrin are closely related proteins with the following properties in common: 1) shared antigenic sites, 2) high-affinity binding to the spectrin beta subunit at the midregion of spectrin tetramers, 3) a binding site for the cytoplasmic domain of the erythrocyte anion channel, 4) a binding site for tubulin, 5) a similar domain structure with a protease-resistant domain of Mr = 72,000 that contains the spectrin-binding activity and domains of Mr = 95,000 (brain ankyrin) or 90,000 (erythrocyte ankyrin) that contain binding sites for both tubulin and the anion channel. Brain ankyrin is present at about 100 pmol/mg of membrane protein in demyelinated membranes based on radioimmunoassay with antibody raised against brain ankyrin and affinity purified on brain ankyrin-agarose. Brain spectrin tetramers are present at 30 pmol/mg of membrane protein. Brain ankyrin thus is present in sufficient amounts to attach spectrin to membranes. Brain ankyrin also may attach microtubules to membranes independently of spectrin and has the potential to interconnect microtubules and spectrin-associated actin filaments. 相似文献

This report describes initial efforts to map the ankyrin-binding site of the cytoplasmic domain of the human erythrocyte anion exchanger. The conclusions are that this site is likely to involve a fairly extended sequence in the midregion of the cytoplasmic domain and requires interactions that are not provided by isolated peptides. The region of the sequence involving residues 174-186 is likely to participate in the ankyrin-binding site based on several experiments. Limited tryptic cleavage in the midregion of the cytoplasmic domain (residues 174 and/or 181) nearly abolished the ability of the cytoplasmic domain to inhibit binding of ankyrin to the anion exchanger. Ankyrin protected the cytoplasmic domain from tryptic digestion. Finally, peptide-specific antibodies against the sequence encompassing the site(s) of tryptic cleavage (residues 174-186) blocked binding of ankyrin to the anion exchanger. However, the sequence comprising the tryptic site is not sufficient for high affinity binding of ankyrin. A 39-amino acid peptide (residues 161-200) that includes the tryptic cleavage site(s) was inactive in inhibiting binding of ankyrin to the anion exchanger. Further evidence for a complex ankyrin-binding site is that peptide-specific antibodies against two different, noncontiguous regions (residues 118-162 and 174-186) both inhibited binding of ankyrin to the anion exchanger and were only 10-20% as effective as antibody against the entire cytoplasmic domain. Finally, the ankyrin-binding site of the anion exchanger did not renature following sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis and transfer to nitrocellulose paper even though spectrin did recover ability to bind ankyrin under the same conditions. Thus, the ankyrin-binding site is not defined by a short continuous sequence. A simple consensus sequence for ankyrin-binding regions in other proteins is not likely. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of Synaptic Membrane Glycoproteins: The Effects of Ca2+ and Calmodulin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Synaptic membranes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP, and glycoproteins were isolated by affinity chromatography on concanavalin A agarose. Glycoproteins accounted for 1.5-2.5% of the total 32P incorporated into synaptic membrane proteins. Ca2+ and calmodulin enhanced the phosphorylation of synaptic membrane glycoproteins approximately threefold. In the presence of Ca2+ and calmodulin, the rate of glycoprotein dephosphorylation was also increased three- to four-fold. Gel electrophoretic analysis identified several synaptic membrane glycoproteins that incorporated 32P, with the most highly labeled glycoprotein under basal phosphorylating conditions having an apparent Mr of 205,000 (gpiii). Ca2+ and calmodulin produced a marked increase in the phosphorylation of a glycoprotein with an apparent Mr of 180,000 (gpiv) and lesser increases in the labeling of three other glycoproteins. Membranes that had been labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP were extracted with Triton X-100 under conditions that yield a detergent-insoluble residue enriched in postsynaptic structures. The Triton X-100 insoluble residue accounted for 20-25% of the 32P associated with synaptic membrane glycoproteins. Gpiv and other glycoproteins, the phosphorylation of which was stimulated by calmodulin, were located exclusively in the Triton X-100 insoluble residue, whereas gpiii and other calmodulin-insensitive glycoproteins partitioned predominantly into the Triton X-100-soluble fraction. Phosphopeptide maps and phosphoamino acid analysis of gpiv isolated from synaptic membranes and a postsynaptic glycoprotein of apparent Mr of 180,000 (gp180) isolated from synaptic junctions indicated that the former protein was identical to the previously identified postsynaptic-specific gp180. In addition to phosphoserine and phosphothreonine, gpiv also contained phosphotyrosine, identifying it as a substrate for tyrosine-protein kinase as well as for Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

Brain ankyrin. Purification of a 72,000 Mr spectrin-binding domain 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
Polypeptides of Mr = 190,000-220,000 that cross-react with erythrocyte ankyrin were detected in immunoblots of membranes from pig lens, pig brain, and rat liver. The cross-reacting polypeptides from brain were cleaved by chymotrypsin to fragments of Mr = 95,000 and 72,000 which are the same size as fragments obtained with erythrocyte ankyrin. The brain 72,000 Mr fragment associated with erythrocyte spectrin, and the binding occurred at the same site as that of erythrocyte ankyrin 72,000 Mr fragment since (a) brain 72,000 Mr fragment was adsorbed to erythrocyte spectrin-agarose and (b) 125I-labeled erythrocyte spectrin bound to brain 72,000 Mr fragment following transfer of the fragment from a sodium dodecyl sulfate gel to nitrocellulose paper, and this binding was displaced by erythrocyte ankyrin 72,000 Mr fragment. Brain 72,000 Mr fragment was purified about 400-fold by selective extraction and by continuous chromatography on columns attached in series containing DEAE-cellulose followed by erythrocyte spectrin coupled to agarose, and finally hydroxylapatite. The brain 72,000 Mr fragment was not derived from contaminating erythrocytes since peptide maps of pig brain and pig erythrocyte 72,000 Mr fragments were distinct. The amount of brain 72,000 Mr fragment was estimated as 0.28% of membrane protein or 39 pmol/mg based on radioimmunoassay with 125I-labeled brain fragment and antibody against erythrocyte ankyrin. Brain spectrin tetramer was present in about the same number of copies (30 pmol/mg of membrane protein) based on densitometry of Coomassie blue-stained sodium dodecyl sulfate gels. The binding site on brain spectrin for both brain and erythrocyte ankyrin 72,000 Mr fragments was localized by electron microscopy to the midregion of spectrin tetramers about 90 nM from the near end and 110 nM from the far end. These studies demonstrate the presence in brain membranes of a protein closely related to erythrocyte ankyrin, and are consistent with a function of the brain ankyrin as a membrane attachment site for brain spectrin. 相似文献

Insulin, epidermal growth factor (EGF), platelet-derived growth factor, multiplication-stimulating activity and 10% foetal-calf serum each stimulated the phosphorylation of a cytosolic Mr-22000 acidic heat-stable protein in Swiss mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Phosphorylation of this protein was not stimulated by isoprenaline or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. The effect of insulin was maximal (3-fold increase) by 10 min; half-maximal stimulation was observed at 70 pM-insulin. Both [32P]phosphoserine and [32P]phosphothreonine residues were present in the Mr-22000 protein after insulin- and growth-factor-stimulated phosphorylation, but no [32P]phosphotyrosine. The major site of insulin- and EGF-stimulated phosphorylation appeared to be a threonine residue, in contrast with previously studied insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of serine residues. Insulin treatment appeared to result in a shift of the protein toward the anode on isoelectric focusing. Insulin and EGF present simultaneously did not lead to phosphorylation beyond that seen with each hormone singly. We surmise that insulin, EGF and perhaps other growth factors may activate a common protein kinase or inhibit a common protein phosphatase in 3T3-L1 adipocytes which acts on the Mr-22000 protein. 相似文献

We investigated the biosynthesis of the insulin receptor in primary cultures of isolated rat adipose cells. Cells were pulse-chase-labelled with [3H]mannose, and at intervals samples were homogenized. Three subcellular membrane fractions were prepared by differential centrifugation: high-density microsomal (endoplasmic-reticulum-enriched), low-density microsomal (Golgi-enriched), and plasma membranes. After detergent solubilization, the insulin receptors were immunoprecipitated with anti-receptor antibodies and analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. After a 30 min pulse-label [3H]mannose first appeared in a band of Mr 190 000. More than 80% of the Mr-190 000 component was recovered in the microsomal fractions. Its intensity reached a maximum at 1 h in the high-density microsomal fraction and at 2 h in the low-density microsomal fraction, and thereafter declined rapidly (t 1/2 approx. 3 h) in both fractions. In the plasma-membrane fraction, the radioactivity in the major receptor subunits, of Mr 135 000 (alpha) and 95 000 (beta), rose steadily during the chase and reached a maximum at 6 h. The Mr-190 000 precursor could also be detected in the high-density microsomal fraction by affinity cross-linking to 125I-insulin. In the presence of monensin, a cationic ionophore that interferes with intracellular transport within the Golgi complex, the processing of the Mr-190 000 precursor into the alpha and beta subunits was completely inhibited. Our results suggest that the Mr-190 000 pro-receptor originates in the endoplasmic reticulum and is subsequently transferred to the Golgi complex. Maturation of the pro-receptor does not seem to be necessary for the expression of the insulin-binding site. Processing of the precursor into the mature receptor subunits appears to occur during the transfer of the pro-receptor from the Golgi complex to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Ankyrin mediates the attachment of spectrin to transmembrane integral proteins in both erythroid and nonerythroid cells by binding to the beta-subunit of spectrin. Previous studies using enzymatic digestion, 2-nitro-5-thiocyanobenzoic acid cleavage, and rotary shadowing techniques have placed the spectrin-ankyrin binding site in the COOH-terminal third of beta-spectrin, but the precise site is not known. We have used a glutathione S-transferase prokaryotic expression system to prepare recombinant erythroid and nonerythroid beta-spectrin from cDNA encoding approximately the carboxy-terminal half of these proteins. Recombinant spectrin competed on an equimolar basis with 125I-labeled native spectrin for binding to erythrocyte membrane vesicles (IOVs), and also bound ankyrin in vitro as measured by sedimentation velocity experiments. Although full length beta-spectrin could inhibit all spectrin binding to IOVs, recombinant beta-spectrin encompassing the complete ankyrin binding domain but lacking the amino-terminal half of the molecule failed to inhibit about 25% of the binding capacity of the IOVs, suggesting that the ankyrin-independent spectrin membrane binding site must lie in the amino-terminal half of beta-spectrin. A nested set of shortened recombinants was generated by nuclease digestion of beta-spectrin cDNAs from ankyrin binding constructs. These defined the ankyrin binding domain as encompassing the 15th repeat unit in both erythroid and nonerythroid beta-spectrin, amino acid residues 1,768-1,898 in erythroid beta-spectrin. The ankyrin binding repeat unit is atypical in that it lacks the conserved tryptophan at position 45 (1,811) within the repeat and contains a nonhomologous 43 residue segment in the terminal third of the repeat. It also appears that the first 30 residues of this repeat, which are highly conserved between the erythroid and nonerythroid beta-spectrins, are critical for ankyrin binding activity. We hypothesize that ankyrin binds directly to the nonhomologous segment in the 15th repeat unit of both erythroid and nonerythroid beta-spectrin, but that this sequence must be presented in the context of a properly folded spectrin "repeat unit" structure. Future studies will identify which residues within the repeat unit are essential for activity, and which residues determine the specificity of various spectrins for different forms of ankyrin. 相似文献

Chicken erythroblasts transformed with avian erythroblastosis virus or S13 virus provide suitable model systems with which to analyze the maturation of immature erythroblasts into erythrocytes. The transformed cells are blocked in differentiation at around the colony-forming unit-erythroid stage of development but can be induced to differentiate in vitro. Analysis of the expression and assembly of components of the membrane skeleton indicates that these cells simultaneously synthesize alpha-spectrin, beta-spectrin, ankyrin, and protein 4.1 at levels that are comparable to those of mature erythroblasts. However, they do not express any detectable amounts of anion transporter. The peripheral membrane skeleton components assemble transiently and are subsequently rapidly catabolized, resulting in 20-40-fold lower steady-state levels than are found in maturing erythrocytes. Upon spontaneous or chemically induced terminal differentiation of these cells expression of the anion transporter is initiated with a concommitant increase in the steady-state levels of the peripheral membrane-skeletal components. These results suggest that during erythropoiesis, expression of the peripheral components of the membrane skeleton is initiated earlier than that of the anion transporter. Furthermore, they point a key role for the anion transporter in conferring long-term stability to the assembled erythroid membrane skeleton during terminal differentiation. 相似文献

The polypeptides encoded by a putative methanol oxidation (mox) operon of Methylobacterium sp. strain AM1 were expressed in Escherichia coli, using a coupled in vivo T7 RNA polymerase/promoter gene expression system. Two mox genes had been previously mapped to this region: moxF, the gene encoding the methanol dehydrogenase (MeDH) polypeptide; and moxG, a gene believed to encode a soluble type c cytochrome, cytochrome cL. In this study, four polypeptides of Mr 60,000, 30,000, 20,000, and 12,000 were found to be encoded by the moxFG region and were tentatively designated moxF, -J, -G, and -I, respectively. The arrangement of the genes (5' to 3') was found to be moxFJGI. The identities of three of the four polypeptides were determined by protein immunoblot analysis. The product of moxF, the Mr-60,000 polypeptide, was confirmed to be the MeDH polypeptide. The product of moxG, the Mr-20,000 polypeptide, was identified as mature cytochrome cL, and the product of moxI, the Mr-12,000 polypeptide, was identified as a MeDH-associated polypeptide that copurifies with the holoenzyme. The identity of the Mr-30,000 polypeptide (the moxJ gene product) could not be determined. The function of the Mr-12,000 MeDH-associated polypeptide is not yet clear. However, it is not present in mutants that lack the Mr-60,000 MeDH subunit, and it appears that the stability of the MeDH-associated polypeptide is dependent on the presence of the Mr-60,000 MeDH polypeptide. Our data suggest that both the Mr-30,000 and -12,000 polypeptides are involved in methanol oxidation, which would bring to 12 the number of mox genes in Methylobacterium sp. strain AM1. 相似文献
