Ornitine decarboxylase was purified from androgen-treated mouse kidney to homogeneity and high specific activity. The purified enzyme was utilized for production and screeing of rat monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. A rat monoclonal antibody was isolated which was capable of immunoprecipitation of native mouse kidney ornitine decarboxylase activity or the [3H]difluoromethylornithine-inactivated enzyme. Phosphorylation of mouse ornithine decarboxylase by casein kinase-II prior to immunoprecipitation led to complete loss of the epitope recognized by the monoclonal antibody but did not alter recognition by polyclonal antibody. Mammalian ornithine decarboxylase activity obtainied from several species, in crude or partially purified extracts, was subjected to quantitative immunoprecipitatin with monoclonal and polyclonal antibody. Polyclonal antibody immunoprecipitated all of the ornthine decarboxylase activity from every extract tested, while monoclonal antibody was capable of only limited immunoprecipitation (60–80%). Due to the inability of the monoclonal antibody to recognize ornithine decarboxylase phosphorylated in vitrol by casein kinase-II and the partial immunoprecipitation of ornithine decarboxylase activity from cell extracts, a portion of the ornithine decarboxylase molecule population must exist in a phosphrylated state. This immunological evidence further confirms existing data that the enzyme in at least two distinct forms. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody was obtained against rat liver ornithine decarboxylase by using hybridoma technology with a small amount of partially purified enzyme. The antibody, IgG1 of kappa-type, was affinity-purified to homogeneity from culture supernatants of hybridoma cells. While the antibody had no inhibitory effect on ornithine decarboxylase activity when tested alone, it precipitated up to 87 units (60 ng) of the enzyme per microgram in the presence of formalin-fixed Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I bacteria. Immunoadsorption on a column of the monoclonal antibody-Sepharose 4B was shown to be useful for the removal of ornithine decarboxylase from antizyme inhibitor preparations, an essential procedure for the accurate assay of either ornithine decarboxylase-antizyme complex or antizyme inhibitor. It was also shown that antizyme could be affinity-purified by using a column of the monoclonal antibody-Affi-Gel 10 to which ornithine decarboxylase had been bound. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody of the immunoglobulin M class was produced against mouse kidney ornithine decarboxylase. Screening for the antibody was carried out using alpha-difluoromethyl[5-3H]ornithine-labelled ornithine decarboxylase. The antibody reacted with this antigen and with native ornithine decarboxylase. The antibody attached to Sepharose could be used to form an immunoaffinity column that retained mammalian ornithine decarboxylase. The active enzyme could then be eluted in a highly purified form by 1.0M-sodium thiocyanate. The monoclonal antibody could also be used to precipitate labelled ornithine decarboxylase from homogenates of kidneys from androgen-treated mice given [35S]methionine. Only one band, corresponding to Mr of about 55000, was observed. The extensive labelling of this band is consistent with the rapid turnover of ornithine decarboxylase protein, since this enzyme represents only about 1 part in 10000 of the cytosolic protein. 相似文献

Partially purified ornithine decarboxylase, isolated from the liver of thioacetamide-treated rats, is stable in the absence of added low-molecular-mass thiols or other reducing agents. However, under these conditions, the enzyme is rapidly inactivated upon incubation with L-ornithine or L-2-methylornithine. The inactivation process follows first-order kinetics, and saturation kinetics are observed. Rapid recovery of activity is observed after subsequent addition of dithiothreitol. As distinct from L-ornithine, D-ornithine, putrescine, spermidine, or spermine do not produce inactivation of ornithine decarboxylase. Very similar results are obtained with pure ornithine decarboxylase isolated from androgen-stimulated mouse kidney, stabilized with a rat liver extract. 相似文献

A monoclonal IgM has been characterised which recognises the nuclear lamins in all mammalian cells tested. In immunoblotting experiments using both one- and two-dimensional gels it recognises lamins A, B and C. The common antigenic determinant lies on a proteolytic fragment of 46,000 daltons which can be generated from each lamin polypeptide by treatment with chymotrypsin. In immunofluorescence experiments on whole cells and thin frozen sections, the antibody labelled only the nuclear envelope and not the nuclear interior. During mitosis, labelling was found dispersed throughout the cell cytoplasm. By immunoelectron microscopy using the antibody and protein A-gold, only the nucleoplasmic side of the nuclear envelope (the nuclear lamina) was labelled, but there was no labelling of the nuclear pores. 相似文献

A human neuroblastoma cell line (Paju) was resistant to 10 mM difluoromethylornithine, a concentration at which the growth of all mammalian cells normally stops. Ornithine decarboxylase from Paju was very resistant to inhibition by difluoromethylornithine in vitro (Ki = 10 microM compared to 0.5 microM for mouse kidney ornithine decarboxylase). After purification, apparently homogeneous Paju ornithine decarboxylase was inactivated with [3H]difluoromethylornithine and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Under denaturing conditions it was found to have an altered molecular structure, i.e. two nonidentical subunits of Mr = 55,000 and 60,000. Another unusual feature of Paju ornithine decarboxylase was its long half-life in vivo (T 1/2 = 8 h compared with 36 min in human HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells). The disappearance of immunoreactive protein was only slightly slower than the loss of catalytic activity. The long half-life of Paju ornithine decarboxylase was not shared by adenosylmethionine decarboxylase. Despite the altered structure of Paju ornithine decarboxylase, it was recognized by a specific antisera raised in rabbit against mouse kidney ornithine decarboxylase. The Paju karyotype did not contain double minute chromosomes or any large homogeneously staining region such as that seen in a mouse lymphoma cell mutant that is resistant to difluoromethylornithine and overproduces ornithine decarboxylase (McConlogue, L., and Coffino, P. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 12083-12086). 相似文献

Based on methods for ornithine-decarboxylase purification published previously we developed an improved procedure for purification of the enzyme from the kidneys of testosterone-treated NMRI mice. Advantages of the new procedure are, that inactivation of the enzyme during purification is largely reduced by fast methods for purification and by the use of proteinase inhibitors. That way we got pure ornithine decarboxylase within 60 h with a yield of about 70%. A part of the highly purified ornithine decarboxylase was used for the generation of monoclonal antibodies. 相似文献

Calcium stimulates ornithine decarboxylase activity in cultured mammalian epithelial cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity usually rises to a peak a few hours after a trophic stimulus. The stimulation of ODC has been shown to depend on extracellular calcium in several in vitro eukaryotic systems. We have investigated the effect of calcium concentration on ODC activity and have found that ODC is stimulated when CaCl2 alone is added to calcium-deprived cells. Epithelial cells from calf esophagus were cultured and grown until stratified. Replacement of medium with fresh serum-free medium resulted in stimulation of ODC activity, which peaked at 4 hours and declined to basal level by 10 hours. Subsequent depletion of Ca2+ either by addition of ethylene glycol bis (beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) or by replacement of medium with Ca2+-free medium, resulted in obliteration of ODC activity 4 hours later. Conversely, cultures in which medium was replaced with Ca2+-free medium and at 10 hours were repleted with Ca2+ (either by addition of CaCl2 or by replacement of medium with Ca2+-containing medium) exhibited a pronounced elevation of ODC activity 4 hours later. ODC activity peaked at 6 hours after the addition of CaCl2 and declined by 8 hours. The effect was elicited by a wide range of concentrations of added Ca2+ from 0.1 mM to 4.0 mM, but was maximal at 1.0 mM. ODC activity was totally abolished if either cycloheximide (10 micrograms/ml) or putrescine (10 mM) was added to cultures immediately prior to Ca2+ addition. Actinomycin D (2, 5, or 10 micrograms/ml) added 30 minutes before Ca2+ did not prevent the stimulation of ODC by added Ca2+. Stimulation by Ca2+ is dependent on (1) absence of Ca2+ during the initial 10-hour incubation and (2) duration of incubation in Ca2+-free medium prior to Ca2+ replenishment. The results indicate that Ca2+ can increase ODC in epithelial cells exposed to Ca2+-depleted medium and that the increase in ODC depends on protein synthesis but is not inhibited by actinomycin D. 相似文献

Ornithine decarboxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine synthesis, was significantly induced in female rat liver following oral administration of the pesticide mirex. After dual oral exposure (120 mg/kg of mirex; 21 and 4 hr prior to sacrifice), ornithine decarboxylase activity in rat liver cytosol was 70-fold higher than control values. A single oral dose of mirex (180 mg/kg) induced hepatic ornithine decarboxylase activity 55-fold over controls. After a single oral dose of mirex the maximal induction of ODC activity occurred at 36 hr. Mirex is an unusually potent and long-lasting inducer of rat hepatic ornithine decarboxylase activity. 相似文献

X3, a monoclonal antibody of unusual specificity, is described. This antibody reacts with one or more cytokeratin polypeptides and also reacts with an avian (chicken, quail) nuclear antigen that appears to be present in all cell types (chicken) tested, although with variable staining pattern and intensity. This antigen is distinct from the cytokeratins but does have an epitope in common with this class of proteins. It disappears from the nucleus during the early stages of cell division and reappears during anaphase as a granular cytoplasmic structure. In late telophase the antigen is relocated in the nucleus. This antigen, which we have designated as avian-specific nuclear antigen (AVNA), is not associated with chromatin or ribonucleoproteins. From immunoblotting experiments on chicken fibroblast nuclei, AVNA is probably a complex composed of one or several polypeptides, one of which has a molecular weight of approximately 60 kD. The proteins were identified as nuclear matrix proteins rather than pore complex-lamina proteins by immunoblotting experiments on the purified nuclear matrix of chicken erythrocytes. The major polypeptide had a molecular weight of 60 kD and the minor polypeptide a molecular weight of 69 kD. 相似文献

Two major ionic forms of ornithine decarboxylase were separated by column chromatography of extracts of kidneys from androgen-treated male CD-1 mice on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, and purified individually to apparent homogeneity. On SDS-PAGE, a single major protein band of Mr 50000 was present in each. When incubated with casein kinase II, purified from rat liver cytosol, only one form of the enzyme, which represented 20% of the total ornithine decarboxylase in the tissue, became phosphorylated. The major form, which was eluted later from the column, could be phosphorylated only after treatment with alkaline phosphatase, indicating that the phosphatase removed enzyme-bound phosphate already attached at the casein kinase II phosphorylation site. Evidence for the occurrence of a phosphorylated form of the enzyme in kidneys of dexamethasone-treated rats is also presented. 相似文献

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity was measured in epididymides of 45-day-old rats. Higher ODC activity was detected in the corpus and cauda than in the caput epididymidis. Bilateral castration for 7 days caused epididymal ODC to fall to undetectable values, whereas testosterone restored activity to normal values. The effect of the androgen was significantly inhibited by cyproterone acetate. The caput was more sensitive to the action of testosterone than were the corpus and caudal segments. Unilateral castration for 4 or 8 days did not affect ODC on the control or castrated side, but the activity fell in epididymides of both sides after removal of the remaining testis. These results show that epididymal ODC activity is androgen-dependent. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody (mAb) G2 possesses an unusual characteristic of reacting with at least three proteins (ATP6V1C1, SEPT3, and C6H10orf76) other than its original antigen, chicken prion protein (ChPrP). The epitopes on ChPrP and ATP6V1C1 have been identified previously. In this study, we identified the epitope in the third protein, SEPT3. Interestingly, there was no amino acid sequence similarity among the epitopes on the three proteins. These epitopes had high binding affinities to G2 (K D = ~10?7 M for monovalent binding and K D = ~10?9 M for divalent binding), as determined using a SPR biosensor. This is the first report on a three‐in‐one mAb recognizing completely different epitope sequences with high affinity. Additionally, competitive ELISA indicated that the binding sites on G2, specific for the three different epitopes, overlapped, suggesting that the antigen‐binding site may be flexible in the free form and capable of adapting to at least three different conformations to enable interactions with three different antigens. 相似文献

The subcellular localisation of ornithine decarboxylase and of its synthetic irreversible inhibitor, α-difluoromethylornithine, was investigated in control rat livers and in livers of animals in which the enzyme was induced by partial hepatectomy or by treatment with dexamethasone. Ornithine decarboxylase activity was distributed in normal rat liver between the nuclear (40%, mainly nucleolar) and the cytosolic (43%) fractions. Cytosolic liver ornithine decarboxylase was markedly induced after partial hepatectomy or treatment with dexamethasone, whereas the enzyme associated with the nuclear fraction was not induced by these procedures. The irreversible inhibitor was found only in the cytosol fraction and was totally absent from the nuclear fraction. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes catalyze a broad range of reactions, resulting in bond cleavage at C alpha, C beta, or C gamma carbons of D and L amino acid substrates. Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is a PLP-dependent enzyme that controls a critical step in the biosynthesis of polyamines, small organic polycations whose controlled levels are essential for proper growth. ODC inhibition has applications for the treatment of certain cancers and parasitic ailments such as African sleeping sickness. RESULTS: The structure of truncated mouse ODC (mODC') was determined by multiple isomorphous replacement methods and refined to 1.6 A resolution. This is the first structure of a Group IV decarboxylase. The monomer contains two domains: an alpha/beta barrel that binds the cofactor, and a second domain consisting mostly of beta structure. Only the dimer is catalytically active, as the active sites are constructed of residues from both monomers. The interactions stabilizing the dimer shed light on its regulation by antizyme. The overall structure and the environment of the cofactor are compared with those of alanine racemase. CONCLUSIONS: The analysis of the mODC' structure and its comparison with alanine racemase, together with modeling studies of the external aldimine intermediate, provide insight into the stereochemical characteristics of PLP-dependent decarboxylation. The structure comparison reveals stereochemical differences with other PLP-dependent enzymes and the bacterial ODC. These characteristics may be exploited in the design of new inhibitors specific for eukaryotic and bacterial ODCs, and provide the basis for a detailed understanding of the mechanism by which these enzymes regulate reaction specificity. 相似文献

Summary The present report describes the immunocytochemical localization of ornithine decarboxylase in the prepubertal rat ovary after administration of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). Numerous ornithine decarboxylase immunoreactive cells appeared in the thecal layer as well as in the interstitial gland tissue after treatment with HCG. The granulosa cells, the ovum and the ovarian stroma were devoid of immunoreactive ornithine decarboxylase. In contrast to the ovary of HCG-treated rats, the ovary of prepubertal rats given the vehicle alone contained only a few weakly immunoreactive cells. 相似文献
