Ionic zinc has been shown to exert a dose-dependent (250-500 microM) stimulation of 125I-human growth hormone specific binding to isolated rat adipocytes. The effect was rapid, being observed in less than 15 min exposure to zinc, and was due to an increased number of available binding sites as determined by Scatchard analysis. The well-known insulin-like effects of both zinc and growth hormone on lipogenesis in this tissue were additive at submaximal doses of each agonist, but zinc did not appear to potentiate growth hormone action. A similar, but smaller effect of zinc on growth hormone specific binding was observed in rabbit liver membranes at lower zinc concentrations (5-100 microM). At higher zinc doses a marked increase in non-specific binding caused a reduction of specific binding in liver membranes. These studies raise the possibility that zinc may be a modulator of growth hormone binding in vivo. Although our initial experiments suggest that this may be independent of an effect on growth hormone action, further studies are required to assess the possibility that zinc's effect at the receptor level may be to increase the sensitivity of tissues to growth hormone, thereby promoting a full manifestation of effects at lower growth hormone concentrations. 相似文献

Pancreastatin (PST), a chromogranin A derived peptide with an array of effects in different tissues, has a role as a counterregulatory hormone of insulin action in hepatocytes and adipocytes, regulating glucose, lipid and protein metabolism. We have previously characterized PST receptors and signaling in rat hepatocytes, in which PST functions as a calcium-mobilizing hormone. In the present work we have studied PST receptors as well as the signal transduction pathways generated upon PST binding in adipocyte membranes. First, we have characterized PST receptors using radiolabeled PST as a ligand. Analysis of binding data indicated the existence of one class of binding sites, with a B(max) of 5 fmol/mg of protein and a K(d) of 1 nM. In addition, we have studied the G protein system that couples the PST receptor by gamma-(35)S-GTP binding studies. We have found that two G protein systems are involved, pertussis toxin-sensitive and -insensitive respectively. Specific anti-G protein alpha subtype sera were used to block the effect of pancreastatin receptor activation. Galpha(q/11) and to a lesser extent Galpha(i1,2) are activated by PST in rat adipocyte membranes. On the other hand, adenylate cyclase activity was not affected by PST. Finally, we have studied the specific phospholipase C isoform that is activated in response to PST. We have found that PST receptor is coupled to PLC-beta(3) via Galpha(q/11) activation in adipocyte membranes. 相似文献

Sulfonylurea binding to adipocyte membranes and potentiation of insulin-stimulated hexose transport 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have previously shown that the sulfonylureas increase insulin-stimulated glucose transport in adipocytes mainly by enhancing the insulin-induced recruitment of glucose transporter from its intracellular storage pool to the plasma membrane (Jacobs, D. B., and Jung, C. Y. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 2593-2596). In order to determine if this sulfonylurea effect is mediated by a specific membrane-associated sulfonylurea-binding protein, in the present report we measured exact dose dependence of the transport enhancement activities of different sulfonylureas in adipocytes in primary culture and equilibrium binding affinities of these agents to various adipocyte membrane fractions. Glycuride was found to increase the insulin-stimulated, 3-O-methyl-D-glucose equilibrium exchange in cultured rat adipocytes by up to 60% with little effect in the absence of insulin. The effect developed gradually reaching the maximum level at 24 h of incubation. The effect was concentration dependent showing a simple, one-to-one stoichiometry and an apparent activation constant (Ka) of approximately 1 microM. Glypizide, tolazamide, and tolbutamide also enhanced the insulin-stimulated hexose transport by up to 60%, but with Ka of approximately 2, 11, and 25 microM, respectively. HB-699 and ciglitazone, non-sulfonylureas, were without effect under the same condition. In equilibrium binding experiments, [3H]glyburide was found to bind to adipocyte membranes at two or more protein-specific, saturable sites, with similar apparent dissociation constants (KD) ranging 1-3 microM. These protein-specific glyburide bindings were displaced not only by tolazamide and tolbutamide, but also by ciglitazone and HB-699, with indicated KD of 11-16, 80-85, 20-25, and 85-95 microM, respectively. However, with the plasma membrane fraction, the displacements by ciglitazone and HB-699 were partial and did not exceed 56-61% at maximum. Based on these findings, we propose that there is a sulfonylurea-specific-binding protein in the plasma membrane of adipocytes, and that this sulfonylurea-binding protein may play a key role in the enhancement of insulin-stimulated hexose transport by sulfonylureas, probably via potentiation of the insulin-induced recruitment of glucose transporter. 相似文献

beta-Adrenergic regulation of insulin and epidermal growth factor receptors in rat adipocytes 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Incubation of intact rat adipocytes with physiological concentrations of catecholamines inhibits the specific binding of 125I-insulin and 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) by 40 to 70%. Affinity labeling of the alpha subunit of the insulin receptor demonstrates that the inhibition of hormone binding is directly reflective of a specific decrease in the degree of receptor occupancy. The stereospecificity and dose dependency of the binding inhibitions are typical of a classic beta 1-adrenergic receptor response with half-maximal inhibition occurring at 10 nM R-(-)-isoproterenol. Specific alpha-adrenergic receptor agonists and beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists have no effect, while beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists block the inhibition of 125I-insulin and 125I-EGF binding to receptors induced by beta-adrenergic receptor agonists. Further, these effects are mimicked by incubation of adipocytes with dibutyryl cyclic AMP or with 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. The beta-adrenergic inhibition of both 125I-insulin and 125I-EGF binding is very rapid, requiring only 10 min of isoproterenol pretreatment at 37 degrees C for a maximal effect. Removal of isoproterenol by washing the cells in the presence of alprenolol leads to complete reversal of these effects. The inhibition of 125I-EGF binding is temperature dependent whereas the inhibition of 125I-insulin binding is relatively insensitive to the temperature of isoproterenol pretreatment. Scatchard analysis of 125I-insulin and 125I-EGF binding demonstrated that the decrease of insulin receptor-binding activity may be due to a decrease in the apparent number of insulin receptors while the inhibition of EGF receptor binding can be accounted for by a decrease in apparent EGF receptor affinity. The decrease in the insulin receptor-binding activity is physiologically expressed as a dose-dependent decrease of insulin responsiveness in the adipocyte with respect to two known responses, stimulation of insulin-like growth factor II receptor binding and activation of the glucose-transport system. These results demonstrate a beta-adrenergic receptor-mediated cyclic AMP-dependent mechanism for the regulation of insulin and EGF receptors in the rat adipocyte. 相似文献

The apparent equilibrium dissociation constants for the interaction of isoproterenol with beta-receptors and adenylate cyclase were determined under the same conditions in rat adipocyte membranes and were compared with the apparent dissociation constant for the interaction of isoproterenol with cyclic AMP accumulation in the adipocyte. From these determinations, it was calculated that the occupancy of less than 4% of the receptor population is required for half-maximal stimulation of adenylate cyclase in membranes and cyclic AMP accumulation in intact cells, provided that receptor-binding and adenylate cyclase assays are performed in the presence of guanine nucleotides. Since guanine nucleotides are also required for adenylate cyclase activation in intact cells, it is concluded that the beta-receptors of rat adipocytes are "spare" receptors. 相似文献

A study was made of the action of various concentrations of ATP on insulin ability to bind to the receptors of the liver and muscle membranes in control and streptozocin-induced diabetes animals. Specific binding of 125I-insulin to the receptors of the liver and muscle membranes was shown to rise in animals with streptozocin-induced diabetes as compared to control. This effect was most pronounced in the muscle membranes. Preincubation of the membranes with ATP did not affect insulin binding to the liver and muscle receptors of control animals. However, hormone binding to the liver receptors of diabetic rats was drastically suppressed by ATP (10(-3) M). Less ATP concentrations (10(12) M) produced an additional inhibitory action which was not marked. ATP led to decreased insulin binding to the muscle receptors of diabetic rats only at extremely low concentrations (10(-12) M). The data obtained may be of importance for regulation of membrane phosphorylation in the states characteristic of insulin resistance. 相似文献

Stoichiometry for the binding of insulin to insulin receptors in adipocyte membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Insulin receptor molecules in rat adipocyte plasma membranes were shown to be monovalent with respect to their capacity to bind insulin. The 1:1 stoichiometry for insulin binding was determined by a "double-probe labeling" procedure, wherein 125I-insulin (probe 1) was affinity cross-linked to its receptor in the presence of an excess saturating concentration of an unlabeled biotinylated insulin derivative (probe 2). If the receptor were competent to bind more than one insulin molecule, any receptor molecule that was cross-linked to probe 1 also should have been cross-linked to probe 2 in the double probe labeling procedure. The monovalent character of the insulin receptor was indicated by the failure of the probe 1-linked receptor to be cross-linked to probe 2. This was indicated by the failure of succinylavidin to increase the molecular weight of the probe 1-linked receptor. Control experiments indicated that succinylavidin increased the molecular weight of receptor that had been cross-linked to probe 2. The 1:1 stoichiometry for insulin binding demonstrated here indicates that if insulin receptors contain more than one insulin binding subunit, the binding of insulin to its receptor must be a highly negatively cooperative process. 相似文献

The present study demonstrated that at physiological concentrations of insulin bacitracin inhibited the degradation of specifically bound insulin by enzymes located in the rat adipocyte plasma membrane. Bacitracin increased the amount of intact insulin specifically bound to the plasma membrane and potentiated the stimulation of adipocyte glucose oxidation by submaximal concentrations of the hormone. In contrast to agents such as chloroquine, which inhibit lysosomal degradation of internalized insulin, bacitracin was shown by two approaches to inhibit a degradative process localized to the adipocyte plasma membrane. Cyanide and 2,4-dinitrophenol, agents which inhibit energy requiring endocytosis, had no effect on the bacitracin inhibition of cellular degradation of 125I-insulin. Bacitracin directly inhibited 125I-insulin degradation by isolated plasma membranes at similar concentrations and to a similar extent as found with cells. The degradative process inhibited by bacitracin accounted for the majority of cellular degradation of the hormone. The increased 125I-insulin bound to adipocytes was shown to be intact by gel chromatographic analysis and was localized to the plasma membrane by direct and indirect approaches. Bacitracin increased 125I-insulin specifically bound to isolated plasma membranes as early as 2 min. The 125I-insulin bound to adipocytes in the presence of bacitracin was completely dissociable by the addition of 8 microM unlabeled insulin whereas a significant portion of 125I-insulin bound to chloroquine-treated cells could not be dissociated. Bacitracin slowed dissociation of 125I-insulin from the cells. Bacitracin increased the 125I-insulin binding to cells in the presence and absence of cyanide and 2,4-dinitrophenol. Bacitracin potentiated the stimulation of adipocyte glucose oxidation at submaximal concentrations of insulin. 相似文献

Plasma membranes prepared from clonal NB-15 mouse neuroblastoma cells were sequentially incubated with 125I-labeled insulin (10 nM) and the bifunctional cross-linking agent disuccinimidyl suberate. This treatment resulted in the cross-linking of 125I-labeled insulin to a polypeptide that gave an apparent Mr of 135 000 on a sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresed in the presence of 10% beta-mercaptoethanol. Affinity labeling of this polypeptide was inhibited by the presence of 5 microM unlabeled insulin, but not by 1 microM unlabeled nerve growth factor. Using the same affinity labeling technique, 125I-labeled nerve growth factor (1 nM) did not label any polypeptide appreciably in the plasma membranes of NB-15 cells but labeled an Mr 145 000 and an Mr 115 000 species in PC-12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. The number of insulin binding sites per cell in the intact differentiated NB-15 mouse neuroblastoma cells was approx. 6-fold greater than that in the undifferentiated NB-15 mouse neuroblastoma cells as measured by specific binding assay, suggesting an increase of the number of insulin receptors in NB-15 mouse neuroblastoma cells during differentiation. 相似文献

The specific binding of 125I-labelled low density lipoprotein ([125I]LDL to human adipocyte plasma membranes was higher at 37 than at 0 degree C. Prior treatment of membranes with pronase had no effect on LDL binding measured at 0 degree C but consistently stimulated binding at 37 degrees C. Plasmin was similar to pronase in enhancing LDL-specific binding, but thrombin was not as effective. 125I-labelled high density lipoprotein ([125I]HDL2) specific binding to human adipocyte plasma membranes was similarly sensitive to temperature and pronase treatment. Addition of the protease inhibitor aprotinin in the adipocyte membrane binding assay significantly reduced [125I]LDL binding at 37 degrees C (p less than 0.05), suggesting the involvement of a protease activity intrinsic to the lipoproteins and (or) membranes. These data demonstrate that both LDL and HDL binding in human adipocyte plasma membranes can be "up-regulated" by specific proteolytic perturbations in a temperature-dependent manner. 相似文献

When rat adipocyte membranes had been labeled with [3H]GTP in the presence of a beta-adrenergic agonist, the subsequent [3H]GDP release was stimulated by beta-agonists or agonists (e.g. glucagon and secretin) of other "activatory" receptors involved in activation of adenylate cyclase, but was not stimulated by agonists (e.g. prostaglandin E1 and adenosine) of "inhibitory" receptors involved in cyclase inhibition. On the contrary, agonists of inhibitory receptors were effective in stimulating GDP release from hamster adipocyte membranes that had been labeled via inhibitory alpha 2-adrenergic receptors, but an activatory receptor agonist such as isoproterenol was not. Thus, the guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (Ni) involved in adenylate cyclase inhibition is an entity distinct from the regulatory protein (Ns) involved in cyclase activation, and multiple activatory or inhibitory receptors are coupled to a respective common pool of Ns or Ni. Preactivated cholera toxin added together with NAD enhanced GDP release from rat adipocyte membranes prelabeled with isoproterenol but was without effect on the release from hamster adipocyte membranes that had been labeled with an alpha-agonist. In sharp contrast, the active subunit of islet-activating protein, pertussis toxin, failed to alter GDP release from the former membrane but completely abolished inhibitory agonist-induced stimulation of GDP release from the latter membrane preparation in the presence of NAD. Thus, the site of action of cholera toxin is Ns, while that of islet-activating protein is Ni. The function of Ni to communicate between inhibitory receptors and adenylate cyclase was lost when it was ADP-ribosylated by islet-activating protein. 相似文献

Analyses of insulin binding to human erythrocytes and to resealed right-side-out and inside-out erythrocyte membrane vesicles have revealed that high affinity insulin binding receptors are present on both sides of the erythrocyte membranes. Insulin binding to human erythrocytes was examined with the use of a binding assay designed to minimize the potential errors arising from the low binding capacity of this cell type and from non-specific binding in the assay. Scatchard analysis of equilibrium binding to the cells revealed a class of high affinity sites with a dissociation constant (Kd) of (1.5 +/- 0.5) X 10(-8) M and a maximum binding capacity of 50 +/- 5 sites per cell. Interestingly, both resealed right-side-out and inside-out membrane vesicles exhibited nearly identical specific sites for insulin binding. At the high affinity binding sites, for both right-side-out and inside-out vesicles, the dissociation constant (Kd) was (1.5 +/- 0.5) X 10(-8) M, and the maximum binding capacity was 17 +/- 3 sites per cell equivalent. These findings suggest that insulin receptors are present on both sides of the plasma membrane and are consistent with the participation of the erythrocyte insulin receptors in an endocytic/recycling pathway which mediates receptor-ligand internalization/externalization. 相似文献

Abstract: The effects of ions on the binding of the excitatory amino acid analogue dl -[3 H]2-amino-4-phosphon-obutyrate to l -glutamate-sensitive sites on rat brain synaptic membranes was investigated. The divalent cations manganese, magnesium, strontium, and particularly calcium, produced a marked enhancement in specific binding. However, this effect was manifest only in the presence of added chloride, or to a lesser extent, with bromide ions. Application of saturation analysis revealed that both chloride and calcium acted to increase the binding site density in a concentration-dependent manner, without affecting the dissociation constant. The only other ionic species found to have a significant effect on 2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate binding was sodium, which produced an apparent reduction in site affinity, without modifying the binding site density. Although the significance of these striking ionic effects is as yet unknown, it seems feasible that chloride (and possibly also calcium) ions may serve a role in regulating the interaction of excitatory amino acids with their physiological receptors. 相似文献

AbstractThe binding of insulin to its receptor in rat adipocyte and isolated plasma membranes has been measured. The adipocyte insulin receptor has been reconstituted in lecithin liposomes and the binding of insulin investigated. A method of interpreting binding data presented as binding vs. the logarithm of free insulin concentration (binding isotherms) in terms of the binding potential concept of Wyman (1965) is described, and the results are compared with the commonly used Scatchard analysis of binding. The binding potential approach enables binding constants and Gibbs energies of formation of the insulin-receptor complex to be determined as a function of insulin bound. The limiting Gibbs energies of binding at 15°C to intact cells, membranes and liposomes were found to be -55, -52 and -49 kJ mol?1 respectively. The affinity of the receptor for insulin decreases smoothly with increase in binding in all three systems. For intact adipocytes the number of insulin receptors per cell is found to be approximately 43,000. 相似文献

Unmasking of insulin receptors in rat submaxillary gland microsomes: effect of high ionic strength, phospholipase C and S-adenosyl-L-methionine 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The specific binding of [125I]insulin to submaxillary gland microsomes was significantly enhanced by increasing the ionic strength of the incubation medium. This effect was neither related to changes in receptor or hormone degradation nor in the polymerization of the tracer. When equilibrium binding data from competition curves of unlabelled insulin versus [125I]insulin were analyzed, a marked increase in total binding capacity in high ionic strength was observed (from 890 to 2440 fmol/mg protein), with no change in binding affinity. Phospholipase C digestion was also able to increase specific [125I]insulin binding to microsomes. These results suggest the presence of masked receptors in submaxillary gland microsomes. Methylation of rat submaxillary gland microsomes by using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as the methyl donor significantly increased [125I]insulin binding. Scatchard analysis of the equilibrium binding data showed that addition of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (0.46 mM) to microsomes resulted in an enhancement of the total binding capacity (from 990 to 1520 fmol/mg protein) with no change in the affinity constants, which suggests the exposure of masked insulin receptors under such conditions. Both the methyl group incorporation into membrane phospholipids and the effect on insulin binding were dependent on the S-adenosyl-L-methionine concentration used and were partially suppressed in the presence of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, a specific competitive inhibitor of the methyltransferases activity. When microsomes were treated with S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-3H]methionine, the 3H-labelled methyl groups incorporated were found mainly in the lipid fraction associated to phosphatidylcholine, suggesting in this case that the unmasking of insulin receptors could be a consequence of alterations produced in membrane composition. The effects of phospholipase C, S-adenosyl-L-methionine and high ionic strength on insulin binding were not additive, suggesting that these procedures unmask receptors from the same pool. 相似文献

Receptor-regulated binding of the labeled GTP analog, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) ([35S]GTP[S]), to guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins) was studied in porcine atrial membranes enriched in muscarinic acetylcholine (mACh) receptors. Binding of [35S]GTP[S] to the membranes was not or only slightly affected by the cholinergic agonist, carbachol, unless a second nucleotide was simultaneously present in the binding assay. This additional nucleotide requirement was best fulfilled by GDP, being maximally effective at 0.1-1 microM. In contrast, the GDP analog, guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate), could not replace GDP in promoting carbachol-induced increase in [35S]GTP[S] binding. In addition to GDP, agonist-induced stimulation of [35S]GTP[S] binding to porcine atrial membranes required the presence of Mg2+, being half-maximally and maximally effective at about 30 microM and 300 microM, respectively. Addition of NaCl, which decreased control binding measured in the presence of GDP alone, had no effect on the maximal extent of agonist-stimulated binding, but reduced the potency of carbachol in stimulating [35S]GTP[S] binding. Under optimal conditions, carbachol increased the binding of [35S]GTP[S] without apparent lag phase up to about 2.5-fold, with half-maximal and maximal increase being observed at 5-10 microM and 100 microM, respectively. The agonist-induced stimulation was competitively antagonized by the mACh receptor antagonist, atropine. The number of GTP[S] binding sites under receptor control was two--three-fold higher than the number of mACh receptors in the porcine atrial membranes used. Pretreatment of the membranes with pertussis toxin under conditions leading to 95% ADP-ribosylation of the toxin-sensitive G-protein alpha-subunits markedly reduced agonist-stimulated [35S]GTP[S] binding, with, however, about 30% stimulation still remaining. The data presented indicate that agonist-stimulated binding of [35S]GTP[S] to G-proteins can be a sensitive assay for measuring receptor-regulated G-protein activation in native membranes and, furthermore, suggest that one agonist-activated mACh receptor can activate two or three cardiac G-proteins, being mainly members of the pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-proteins. 相似文献

In the presence of 1 microM atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and low (0.1 mM) Mg2+ concentrations, the initial rate of binding of [3H]guanosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imido)triphosphate [( 3H]p[NH]ppG) to rat lung plasma membranes was increased twofold to threefold. ANF-dependent stimulation of the initial rate of [3H]p[NH]ppG binding was reduced at high (5 mM) Mg2+ concentrations. Preincubation of membranes with p[NH]ppG (5 min at 37 degrees C) eliminated the ANF-dependent effect on [3H]p[NH]ppG binding whereas ANF-dependent [3H]p[NH]ppG binding was unaffected by similar pretreatment with guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[beta S]). An increase in ANF concentration from 10 pM to 1 microM caused a 40% decrease in forskolin-stimulated or isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities (IC50 5 nM) in rat lung plasma membranes. GTP (100 microM) was obligatory for the ANF-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase, which could be completely overcome by the presence of 100 microM GDP[beta S] or the addition of 10 mM Mn2+. Reduction of Na2+ concentration from 120 mM to 20 mM had the same effect. Pertussis toxin eliminated ANF-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase by catalyzing ADP-ribosylation of membrane-bound Ni protein (41-kDa alpha subunit of the inhibitory guanyl-nucleotide-binding protein of adenylate cyclase). The data support the notion that one of the ANF receptors in rat lung plasma membranes is negatively coupled to a hormone-sensitive adenylate cyclase complex via the GTP-binding Ni protein. 相似文献

An in vitro receptor binding assay, using filtration to separate bound from free [125I]insulin, was developed and used to characterize insulin receptors on membranes isolated from specific areas of rat brain. The kinetic and equilibrium binding properties of central receptors were similar to those of hepatic receptors. The binding profiles in all tissues were complex and were consistent with binding in multiple steps or to multiple sites. Similar binding properties were found among receptors in olfactory tubercle/bulb, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, striatum, hypothalamus, and cerebellum. High affinity [125I]insulin binding sites (KD = 3-11 nM) were distributed evenly between membranes isolated from P1 and P2 fractions of these brain areas, with the exception of the olfactory tubercle in which binding to P2 membranes was four-fold greater (Bmax = 150 fmol/mg protein). One difference between insulin receptors in brain and peripheral target tissues, however, was observed. Following exposure to 0.17 microM insulin for 3 h at 37 degrees C, the number of specific [125I]insulin binding sites on adipocytes decreased by 40%, while the number of binding sites on minces of cerebral cortex/olfactory tubercle remained constant. The results suggest that although the binding characteristics of central and peripheral insulin receptors are similar, these receptors do not appear to be regulated in the same manner. 相似文献

Nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR) was employed as a probe of the nucleoside transporters from rat and guinea-pig liver. Purified liver plasma membranes prepared on self-generating Percoll density gradients exhibited 16-fold (rat) and 10-fold (guinea pig) higher [3H]NBMPR-binding activities than in crude liver homogenates (3.69 and 14.7 pmol/mg of protein for rat and guinea-pig liver membranes respectively, and 0.23 and 1.47 pmol/mg of protein for crude liver homogenates respectively). Binding to membranes from both species was saturable (apparent Kd 0.14 and 0.63 nM for rat and guinea-pig membranes respectively) and inhibited by uridine, adenosine, nitrobenzylthioguanosine (NBTGR) and dilazep. Uridine was an apparent competitive inhibitor of high-affinity NBMPR binding to rat membranes (apparent Ki 1.5 mM). There was a marked species difference with respect to dipyridamole inhibition of NBMPR binding (50% inhibition at 0.2 and greater than 100 microM for guinea-pig and rat respectively). These results are consistent with a role of NBMPR-binding proteins in liver nucleoside transport. Exposure of rat and guinea pig membranes to high-intensity u.v. light in the presence of [3H]NBMPR resulted in the selective radio-labelling of membrane proteins which migrated on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels with apparent Mr values in the same range as that of the human erythrocyte nucleoside transporter (45 000-66 000). Covalent labelling of these proteins was abolished when photolysis was performed in the presence of non-radio-active NBTGR as competing ligand. 相似文献

Insulin and phorbol ester stimulate phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in adipocyte plasma membranes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Several substrates of endogenous Ca2+- and phospholipid-sensitive protein kinase have been identified in plasma membranes and cytosol from rat adipocytes. Specifically, Ca2+ stimulates phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in isolated plasma membranes, an effect which is further enhanced by the addition of the phorbol ester tetradecanoylphorbol acetate and phospholipase C. The 40-kDa phosphoprotein is also present in the cytosol, and its phosphorylation is stimulated in a Ca2+-dependent manner by phosphatidylserine, diacylglycerol, and phorbol ester. Direct addition of insulin to adipocyte plasma membranes stimulates phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein in a concentration-dependent manner. Maximal stimulation was observed at 10(-8) M insulin. At 6.7 X 10(-8) M insulin, phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein was stimulated by 68 +/- 9% (n = 6). Addition of phorbol ester (1, 10, and 100 ng/ml) plus insulin further enhanced the phosphorylation (286 +/- 39, n = 3; 350 +/- 65, n = 4; and 323 +/- 42%, n = 5, stimulation, respectively). Analysis of the 40-kDa phosphoprotein by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that incubations containing no additions, insulin, and/or phorbol ester all resulted in the generation of a single and apparently identical phosphorylated 40-kDa species. These studies indicate that insulin and Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase stimulate phosphorylation of a 40-kDa protein in adipocyte plasma membranes. 相似文献
