The secretion of the Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase with a different charge of signal peptide due to replacement of positively charged Lys(–20) has been studied depending on the phospholipid composition of the membranes and the activity of the translocational ATPase—protein SecA. Changing the signal peptide charge, along with a change in phospholipid composition, has been shown to reduce the efficiency of secretion. In the absence of phosphatidylethanolamine the membrane contains anionic phospholipids only, and the dependence of secretion on the signal peptide charge decreases. The dependence of secretion on membrane phospholipid composition and the signal peptide charge is also determined by the activity of SecA protein. If SecA is inactivated by sodium azide, then the dependence of secretion on anionic phospholipids increases; on the contrary, higher content of anionic phospholipids (in the absence of phosphatidylethanolamine) decreases the dependence of secretion on the SecA activity. The results suggest a direct interaction of positively charged signal peptide with negatively charged membrane phospholipids under initiation of secretion and also interdependent contribution of the signal peptide charge, anionic phospholipids, and translocational ATPase to secretion. 相似文献

Export-specific chaperone SecB and translocational ATPase SecA catalyze the cytoplasmic steps of Sec-dependent secretion in Escherichia coli. Their effects on secretion of periplasmic alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) were shown to depend on the N-terminal region of the mature PhoA sequence contained in the PhoA precursor. Amino acid substitutions in the vicinity of the signal peptide (positions +2, +3) not only dramatically inhibited secretion, but they also reduced its dependence on SecB. Immunoprecipitation reported their impaired binding with mutant prePhoA. The results testified that SecB and SecA interact with the mature PhoA region located close to the signal peptide in prePhoA. 相似文献

Positively charged amino acid residues in the N-terminal domain of the signal peptides of secreted proteins are thought to interact with negatively charged anionic phospholipids during the initiation of secretion. To test this hypothesis, substitutions of the uncharged Ala or the negatively charged Glu residue for the positively charged Lys-20 of the N-terminus of the signal peptide of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase were introduced using a modified method of oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis. We found that Lys-20 is involved in the interaction of the signal peptide with anionic phospholipids in vivo and effects the efficiency of insertion of the signal peptide of isolated precursor into model phospholipid membranes in vitro. We also show that the efficiency of signal peptide insertion into the lipid bilayer depends on the fluidity of the bilayer. 相似文献

Secretion of alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) encoded by a gene constituent of plasmids has been studied in Escherichia coli strains with controlled synthesis of anionic phospholipids (phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin, strain HDL11) and zwitterionic phospholipid (phosphatidylethanolamine, strain AD93). Changing the phospholipid composition of the membrane of these strains leads to an increase in secretion of PhoA, which is usually localized in the periplasm, into the culture medium. This correlates with a higher secretion of exopolysaccharides and lower content of lipopolysaccharide in the outer membrane. The results show the possibility of coupling protein secretion into the medium with biogenesis of cell envelope components in which phospholipids are involved. 相似文献

Secretion of periplasmic alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) encoded by the gene constituent of plasmids and the peculiar properties
of cell envelope biogenesis in Escherichia coli strains with controlled synthesis of individual membrane phospholipids have been studied. Alkaline phosphatase secretion
across the cytoplasmic membrane declines, while secretion into the culture medium intensifies under changed metabolism. The
composition of anionic membrane phospholipids changes due to inactivation of the pgsA gene or regulation of its expression by environmental factor, as well as in the absence of the pssA gene which is responsible for the synthesis of the precursor for zwitter-ionic phospholipid — phosphatidylethanolamine. This
correlates with intensified secretion of exopolysaccharides and lower content of lipopolysaccharide and lipoprotein which
are responsible for barrier properties of the outer membrane. The results suggest a possible coupling of protein secretion
with biogenesis of cell envelope components at a level of phospholipid metabolism. 相似文献

The secretion of alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) and peculiarities of biogenesis of the cell envelope were studied in Escherichia coli strains HD30/pHD102 and HDL11 with controlled synthesis of the anionic phospholipids, phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin. Inactivation of the pgsA gene responsible for the synthesis of anionic phospholipids or changes in the regulation of its expression by an environmental factor caused changes in the metabolism and composition of membrane phospholipids, which resulted in a decrease in the secretion of alkaline phosphatase through the cytoplasmic membrane and an increase in PhoA secretion from the periplasm into the culture medium. An increase was observed in exopolysaccharide secretion, as well as a decrease in the contents of the outer membrane lipopolysaccharides and lipopolyproteins, which determine its barrier properties. The results obtained show that anionic phospholipids play a significant role in protein secretion and are probably involved in the interrelation between protein secretion and biogenesis of cell envelope components.__________Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 74, No. 2, 2005, pp. 179–184.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Anisimova, Badyakina, Vasileva, Nesmeyanova. 相似文献

The export signal has been assumed to be localized not only in the signal peptide of a secreted protein precursor, but also in the N-terminal region of the mature polypeptide chain. Mutant alkaline phosphatases with amino acid substitutions of two positively charged residues (Lys or Arg) in this region at different distances from the signal peptide have been studied to test this assumption. The efficiency of secretion has been shown to decrease in mutant proteins with amino acid substitutions in the region of 16-18 amino acid residues; the closer to the signal peptide is the substitution, the greater is the decrease. A change in the primary structure of the N-terminal domain results also in an increase in the Michaelis constant, which is greater the farther is the amino acid substitution from the signal peptide, suggesting a change in the enzyme function as well. 相似文献

The efficiency of secretion of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase depends on the presence in cells of a cytoplasmic chaperone—protein SecB. Secretion increases in the presence of this chaperone at 30°C, which is the most favorable for the interaction of SecB with the export-initiation domain found previously in the N-terminal region of the mature enzyme. This interaction most likely occurs in the region of the export domain, which is located close to the signal peptide and in complex with a translocational ATPase—protein SecA. 相似文献

The cytoplasmic step of posttranslational secretion in Escherichia coli is catalyzed by export-specific chaperone SecB and translocational ATPase SecA. In addition, the efficiency of secretion depends on the charge of the signal peptide (SP). Replacement of positively charged Lys(–20) with uncharged Ala or negatively charged Glu in the N-terminal region of SP of the alkaline phosphatase precursor (prePhoA) was shown to decrease the PhoA secretion in the periplasm. The effect on secretion increased in the absence of SecB and was especially high on SecA inactivation. A change in SP charge strengthened the SecA and SecB dependences of secretion. On evidence of immunoprecipitation, the charge of the N-terminal region of SP had no effect on prePhoA interaction with the cytoplasmic secretion factors, suggesting no direct binding between this region and SecA or SecB. Yet the charge of the N-terminal region proved to affect the functions of SP as an intramolecular chaperone and a factor of prePhoA targeting to the membrane in cooperation with SecA and SecB. 相似文献

Pili of Pseudomonas aeruginosa are assembled from monomers of the structural subunit, pilin, after secretion of this protein across the bacterial membrane. These subunits are initally synthesized as precursors (prepilin) with a six-amino-acid leader peptide that is cleaved off during or after membrane traversal, followed by methylation of the amino-terminal phenylalanine residue. This report demonstrates that additional sequences from the N terminus of the mature protein are necessary for membrane translocation. Gene fusions were made between amino-terminal coding sequences of the cloned pilin gene (pilA) and the structural gene for Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase (phoA) devoid of a signal sequence. Fusions between at least 45 amino acid residues of the mature pilin and alkaline phosphatase resulted in translocation of the fusion proteins across the cytoplasmic membranes of both P. aeruginosa and E. coli strains carrying recombinant plasmids, as measured by alkaline phosphatase activity and Western blotting. Fusion proteins constructed with the first 10 amino acids of prepilin (including the 6-amino-acid leader peptide) were not secreted, although they were detected in the cytoplasm. Therefore, unlike that of the majority of secreted proteins that are synthesized with transient signal sequences, the membrane traversal of pilin across the bacterial membrane requires the transient six-amino-acid leader peptide as well as sequences contained in the N-terminal region of the mature pilin protein. 相似文献

Summary Structural gene mutants of the cell-surface glycoprotein acid phosphatase of Schizosaccharomyces pombe were analysed to define structural determinants that are responsible for enzymatic activity, N-glycosylation and secretion. All seven defined mutations cause a single amino acid substitution in the mature acid phosphatase protein and destroy the enzymatic activity. The mutational lesions are distributed throughout the pho1 gene. A ser to phe substitution at position 349 abolishes enzymatic activity only and does not affect glycosylation and secretion. Two mutations create a new N-glycosylation site by substitution of pro at position 56 by phe and ser, respectively. This new site is apparently used in the mutants. Their core-glycosylated acid phosphatase is slightly larger than that of the wild type. Overglycosylation seems not to affect secretion. Four different mutations (a gly to asp substitution at position 281 and ser to phe substitutions at positions 150, 271 and 277) cause intracellular accumulation of enzymatically inactive core-glycosylated acid phosphatase precursor. These mutational lesions apparently block transport of acid phosphatase from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

The major phospholipid of the Escherichia coli membranes--the zwitterion phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)--is the only phospholipid involved in the formation of non-bilayer structure of membrane lipids, which is supposed to be necessary for efficient translocation of secreted proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane. The effect of PE on the production and secretion of alkaline phosphatase has been studied in this work using the mutant strain E. coli AD93, which is unable to synthesize PE. It was shown that this phospholipid is required for the efficient production and secretion of alkaline phosphatase. The anionic phospholipid cardiolipin in combination with divalent cations Mg2+ functionally replaces PE in these processes, participating in the regulation of lipid polymorphism. 相似文献

The Tsr chemosensory transducer of Escherichia coli assembles into the cytoplasmic membrane via a SecA-dependent process 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

The Tsr protein of Escherichia coli is a chemosensory transducer that mediates taxis toward serine and away from certain repellents. Like other bacterial transducers, Tsr spans the cytoplasmic membrane twice, forming a periplasmic domain of about 150 amino acids and a cytoplasmic domain of about 300 amino acids. The 32 N-terminal amino acids of Tsr resemble the consensus signal sequence of secreted proteins, but they are not removed from the mature protein. To investigate the function of this N-terminal sequence in the assembly process, we isolated translational fusions between tsr and the phoA and lacZ genes, which code for the periplasmic enzyme alkaline phosphatase and the cytoplasmic enzyme beta-galactosidase, respectively. All tsr-phoA fusions isolated code for proteins whose fusion joints are within the periplasmic loop of Tsr, and all of these hybrid proteins have high alkaline phosphatase activity. The most N-terminal fusion joint is at amino acid 19 of Tsr. Tsr-lacZ fusions were found throughout the tsr gene. The beta-galactosidase activity of the LacZ-fusion proteins varies greatly, depending on the location of the fusion joint. Fusions with low activity have fusion joints within the periplasmic loop of Tsr. The expression of these fusions is most likely reduced at the level of translation. In addition, one of these fusions markedly reduces the export and processing of the periplasmic maltose-binding protein and the outer membrane protein OmpA, but not of intact PhoA or of the outer membrane protein LamB. A temperature-sensitive secA mutation, causing defective protein secretion, stops expression of new alkaline phosphatase activity coded by a tsr-phoA fusion upon shifting to the nonpermissive temperature. The same secA mutation, even at the permissive temperature, increases the activity and the level of expression of LacZ fused to the periplasmic loop of Tsr relative to a secA+ strain. We conclude that the assembly of Tsr into the cytoplasmic membrane is mediated by the machinery responsible for the secretion of a subset of periplasmic and outer membrane proteins. Moreover, assembly of the Tsr protein seems to be closely coupled to its synthesis. 相似文献

The cytoplasmic step of posttranslational secretion in Escherichia coli is catalyzed by export-specific chaperone SecB and translocational ATPase SecA. In addition, the efficiency of secretion depends on the charge of the signal peptide (SP). Substitution of positively charged Lys(-20) with noncharged Ala or negatively charged Glu in the N-terminal region of SP of the alkaline phosphatase (PhoA) precursor (prePhoA) was shown to decrease the PhoA secretion in the periplasm. The effect on secretion increased in the absence of SecB and was especially high on SecA inactivation. A change in SP charge strengthened the SecA and SecB dependences of secretion. On evidence of immunoprecipitation, the charge of the N-terminal region of SP had no effect on prePhoA interaction with the cytoplasmic secretion factors, suggesting no direct binding between this region and SecA or SecB. Yet the charge of the N-terminal region proved to affect the functions of SP as an intramolecular chaperone and a factor of prePhoA targeting to the membrane in cooperation with SecA and SecB. 相似文献

Replacement of the positively charged signal peptide with neutral or negatively charged peptides due to substitution of Lys(–20) in the N-terminal region of the signal peptide leads to decreases in the rate of prePhoA membrane translocation in vivo and in the efficiency of prePhoA insertion into liposomes in vitro. The effect of anionic phospholipids on prePhoA insertion into model membranes is determined by the signal peptide N-terminus charge, while the dependence of prePhoA translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane in vivo is not, under the studied variations in the content of anionic phospholipids. This is evidence of the possibility of direct electrostatic interaction between the signal peptide N-terminus and anionic phospholipids, which in vivo, however, seems to involve some proteins of the Sec machinery. 相似文献

The effect of phospholipids on the activity of isoform ACA8 of Arabidopsis thaliana plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+-ATPase was evaluated in membranes isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain K616 expressing wild type or mutated ACA8 cDNA. Acidic phospholipids stimulated the basal Ca2+-ATPase activity in the following order of efficiency: phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate > phosphatidylserine > phosphatidylcholine approximately = phosphatidylethanolamine approximately = 0. Acidic phospholipids increased V(max-Ca2+) and lowered the value of K(0.5-Ca2+) below the value measured in the presence of calmodulin (CaM). In the presence of CaM acidic phospholipids activated ACA8 by further decreasing its K(0.5-Ca2+) value. Phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate and, with lower efficiency, phosphatidylserine bound peptides reproducing ACA8 N-terminus (aa 1-116). Single point mutation of three residues (A56, R59 and Y62) within the sequence A56-T63 lowered the apparent affinity of ACA8 for phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate by two to three fold, indicating that this region contains a binding site for acidic phospholipids. However, the N-deleted mutant Delta74-ACA8 was also activated by acidic phospholipids, indicating that acidic phospholipids activate ACA8 through a complex mechanism, involving interaction with different sites. The striking similarity between the response to acidic phospholipids of ACA8 and animal plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase provides new evidence that type 2B Ca2+-ATPases share common regulatory properties independently of structural differences such as the localization of the terminal regulatory region at the N- or C-terminal end of the protein. 相似文献

Change in the cellular localization of alkaline phosphatase by alteration of its carboxy-terminal sequence 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Summary Alkaline phosphatase (AP) is secreted into the medium when the carboxy-terminal 25 amino acids are replaced by the 60 amino acid carboxy-terminal signal peptide (HlyAs) ofEscherichia coli haemolysin (HlyA). Secretion of the AP-HlyAs fusion protein is dependent on HlyB and HlyD but independent of SecA and SecY. The efficiency of secretion by HlyB/HlyD is decreased when AP carries its own N-terminal signal peptide. Translocation of this fusion protein into the periplasm is not observed even in the absence of HlyB/HlyD. The failure of the Sec export machinery to transport the latter protein into the periplasm seems to be due in part to the loss of the carboxy-terminal sequence of AP since even AP derivatives which do not carry the HlyA signal peptide but lack the 25 C-terminal amino acids of AP are localized in the membrane but not translocated into the periplasm. 相似文献

SecA is a motor protein that drives protein translocation at the Escherichia coli translocon. SecA membrane binding has been shown to occur with high affinity at SecYE and low affinity at anionic phospholipids. To dissect SecA-membrane interaction with reference to SecA structure, the membrane binding properties of N- and C-terminal SecA domains, denoted SecA-N664 and SecA-619C, respectively, were characterized. Remarkably, only SecA-N664 bound to the membrane with high affinity, whereas SecA-619C bound with low affinity in a nonsaturable manner through partitioning with phospholipids. Moreover, SecA-N664 and SecA-619C associated with each other to reconstitute wild type binding affinity. Corroborative results were also obtained from membrane binding competition and subcellular fractionation studies along with binding studies to membranes prepared from strains overproducing SecYE protein. Together, these findings indicate that the specific interaction of SecA with SecYE occurs through its N-terminal domain and that the C-terminal domain, although important in SecA membrane cycling at a later stage of translocation, appears to initially assist SecA membrane binding by interaction with phospholipids. These results provide the first evidence for distinct membrane binding characteristics of the two SecA primary domains and their importance for optimal binding activity, and they are significant for understanding SecA dynamics at the translocon. 相似文献
