Phosphatase activities in sea urchin eggs and plutei were investigated by means of histochemical staining of immunoprecipitates. Two protein fractions were obtained by extraction in a hypotonic medium and by detergent treatment of the residual pellet. Three distinctly different phosphatase activities were discerned, nucleoside diphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.6.), acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2.) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1.). The nucleoside diphosphatase activity, which was confined to one antigen, was present in both water soluble and detergent extracts and at roughly the same concentration in eggs and plutei. By means of a monospecific antiserum the immunological identify of this antigen was established in all instances. The acid phosphatase activity, which was displayed by ten detergent extracted antigens in eggs, was only found in five detergent extracted antigens in plutei. This decrease in number of enzyme active antigens was also reflected by a general decrease in number of enzyme active antigens was also reflected by a general decrease in activity as assessed by quantitative determinations. Furthermore, by means of absorbed antisera it was established that two or three of the acid phosphatase active antigens were "egg specific". Another acid phosphatase active antigen, which was common to both developmental stages, was investigated by a monospecific antiserum. While this antigen was found in both soluble fractions, it was only enzymatically active when extracted with detergent. Alkaline phosphatase active antigens were only found in the detergent extract of plutei. However, immunoprecipitates with this activity appeared both with antiserum against unfertilized eggs and with antiserum against plutei. This suggests that the egg contained the antigens in an enzymatically inactive form. 相似文献

In the cell cortex of the parasitic ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis different kinds of cisternae were observed: the alveolar sacs, thick membrane cisternae and the endoplasmic reticulum. The thick membrane cisternae possess coated dilated rims and sometimes could be observed close to the endoplasmic reticulum. Using cytochemical techniques acid phosphatase, thiamine pyrophosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase activities were detected in the thick membrane cisternae and in the alveolar sacs of trophozoites. In the endoplasmic reticulum acid phosphatase activity was not detected and only very small amounts of thiamine pyrophosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase reaction product were observed. After exit from the host, a reduction in acid phosphatase activity was evident in the alveolar sacs. At theront stage acid phosphatase activity is absent from these structures. However, high thiamine pyrophosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase activities remain in the alveolar sacs during the whole life cycle. On the other hand, acid phosphatase, thiamine pyrophosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase activities were detected in thick membrane cisternae of theronts. Based on the morphological aspects and enzymatic content the thick membrane cisternae of the cell cortex are designated as golgian-like cisternae. The cytochemical results point out a relationship between the alveolar sacs and the Golgi complex. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a vanadate-sensitive nucleotide tri- and diphosphatase with acid pH optimum from rat bone 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Rat bone was extracted with KCl and Triton X-100, and a tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity was purified by protamine sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography (CM-cellulose), and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 according to previously described procedures. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining demonstrated a major band with an apparent monomer molecular size of approximately 14,000 Da. The enzyme is active with p-nitrophenylphosphate (p-NPP) but exhibits a 5- to 10-fold higher affinity towards several nucleotides of which ATP and ADP are the most readily hydrolyzed substrates based on kinetic studies. Based on sensitivity towards proteolytic treatment and detergent removal, as well as pH-optimum studies, a single enzyme was found to be responsible for activity towards nucleotide phosphates as well as p-NPP. This nucleotide tri- and diphosphatase constitutes around 15% of the total acid phosphatase activity in rat bone. The activity with ATP as substrate in contrast to that with p-NPP was inhibited in a noncompetitive fashion by MgCl2, sodium metavanadate, and p-chloromercuribenzoate. Enzyme activity with p-NPP and ATP is dependent on the presence of KCl and detergent and is activated by Fe3+ and ascorbate. The reported characteristics of the enzyme suggest that it functions as a unique membrane acid ATPase. 相似文献

A method using immunodiffusion has been established to assay the two mutually exclusive temperature dependent immobilization antigens, H and T, of Tetrahymena pyriformis. Specific antiserum was obtained by exploitation of allelic or temperature induced variations among inbred strains for absorption of antisera prepared against whole cells. The antigens were extracted both from isolated cilia and from whole cell bodies. Mild detergent extraction was found to be more efficient than mechanical disruption of the cells by freeze-thawing. The sedimentation behavior in sucrose density gradients of active H antigen was the same, whether freeze-thaw or detergent extracted; similarly, the sedimentation behavior of T was the same following the two extraction methods. Extraction with acetic acid, as reported by others, solubilized the same material as the detergent, but the acid denatured the antigen. An estimate of the molecular weight of the antigen of 29 000 for H and 23 000 for T was made. 相似文献

Localization and activities of alkaline phosphatase, ATPase, 5-nucleotidase, glucose-6-phosphatase, thiamine pyrophosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase were studied in the miracidium of Fasciola hepatica L. Except for nucleoside diphosphatase whose activity in the miracidium was not observed, all the enzymes were most active in the archenteron, protonephridia and nerve ganglion. This localization of the reaction intensity allows the inference that the three organs mentioned are sites of both intense carbohydrate metabolism and lively active transport. The role of phosphatases in carbohydrate metabolism is discussed. 相似文献

The anionic detergents sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and Alipal CO-433 and the non-ionic detergent Trition X-100 at concentrations of 0.02–0.10% cause a more rapid solubilization of phospholipid than proteins in isolated rat liver plasma membranes. All three detergents cause an increase in membrane turbidity at low detergent concentration (0.01–0.04%) but then decrease the turbidity at higher detergent concentration (0.04–0.10%). Each detergent gives a characteristic turbidity-detergent concentration profile which is pH dependent.The activities of the membrane-bound enzymes Mg2+ ATPase, 5′-nucleotidase and acid and aklaline phosphatase were influenced by each detergent to a different extent. Each enzyme gave a characteristic activity-detergent concentration profile. Mg2+ ATPase was inhibited by all detergents. 5′-Nucleotidase was stimulated by Triton and Alipal but inhibited by SDS. Alkaline phosphatase was stimulated by Alipal and SDS and not influenced by Triton. Acid phosphatase was stimulated by Triton and inhibited by Alipal and SDS. 56% of the total membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase and 23% of the total membrane-bound 5′-nucleotidase was solubilized in an active form by 0.06% and 0.05% SDS respectively. 相似文献

Homogeneous preparations of cytoplasmic membrane isolated from Staphylococcus aureus 6538P exhibited membrane-associated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity. Membrane ATPase activity was activated by divalent cations (4.0 mM: Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Zn2+), and ATP was hydrolyzed more readily than other nucleoside triphosphates and phosphorylated substrates. The pH optimum for the membrane ATPase was 6.5. The ATPase could not be released from the membrane by differential osmotic treatments, but detergent treatment effectively solubilized active enzyme. The nonionic detergent Triton X-100 (1%) released a protein with ATPase activity, after substrate-dependent staining in polyacrylamide gels, that differed slightly in electrophoretic migration when compared to the active enzyme solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.1%). Membrane-associated ATPase activity was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (0.001 to 1 mM) and NaF (50% inhibition at 5 mM NaF). Azide and trypsin inhibited activity, whereas ouabain had a slight inhibitory effect. Diethylstilbestrol showed appreciable activation of the membrane ATPase over the range employed (0.001 to 1 mM). 相似文献

Tetrahymena pyriformis contains an enzyme which hydrolyzed dolichyl phosphate. This activity was solubilized from lyophilized samples of this organism and was relatively stable when stored frozen. The soluble enzyme preparation had an acid pH optimum and hydrolyzed both dolichyl and phytanyl phosphates at equivalent rates. The polyprenylphosphate phosphatase activity was compared with the acid phosphatases which hydrolyzed p-nitrophenyl phosphate and marked differences were found. Dolichyl phosphate hydrolysis required Mg2+ for maximum activity while the bulk of the phosphatase activity was not effected by the absence of this ion. Other differences were that the polyprenylphosphate phosphatase was relatively insensitive to inhibitors such as tartrate and vanadium oxide sulfate which had a pronounced effect on the rate of p-nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis. The two activities also appeared to have different subcellular distributions. The polyprenylphosphate phosphatase was markedly inhibited by ethoxy formic anhydride, a reagent which is active against enzymes containing a histidine residue at their active site, while p-nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis was unaffected. The polyprenylphosphate phosphatase may be important in regulating the level of dolichyl phosphate in T. pyriformis and thus the rate of glycoprotein synthesis. It is also a useful tool which is capable of liberating dolichol from dolichyl phosphate under mild conditions which will permit the further characterization of the polyprenols. 相似文献

1. UDP-glucose-sterol glucosyltransferase and nucleoside diphosphatases were isolated in a particulate fraction from 7-day-old etiolated pea seedlings. The glucosyltransferase and UDPase (uridine diphosphatase) are stimulated by Ca2+ cation, less so by Mg2+ cation, and inhibited by Zn2+. 2. Each activity has a pH optimum near 8. 3. The glucosyltransferase is specific for UDP-glucose as the glucosyl donor and is inhibited by UDP. Partial recovery from UDP inhibition is effected by preincubation of the enzyme. 4. Freeze-thaw treatment and subsequent sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation of the particulate fraction shows the glucosyltransferase to be widely distributed among cell fractions but to be most active in particles with a density of 1.15 g/ml. UDPase is most active in particulate material with a density of over 1.18 g/ml but an activity peak also appears at 1.15 g/ml. Of several nucleoside diphosphatase activities, UDPase activity is most enhanced by the freeze-thaw and sucrose-density-gradient-fractionation procedures. 5. Detergent treatment with 0.1% sodium deoxycholate allows the partial solubilization of the glucosyltransferase and UDPase. The two activities are similarly distributed between pellet and supernatant after high-speed centrifugation for two different time intervals. 6. A role for UDPase in the functioning of glucosylation reactions is discussed. 相似文献

The role of nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase in in vitro nucleoside triphosphate-dependent matrix vesicle calcification 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase (EC 3.6.1.8) activity is associated with matrix vesicles purified from collagenase digests of fetal calf epiphyseal cartilage. This enzyme hydrolyzes nucleoside triphosphates to nucleotides and PPi, the latter inducing precipitation in the presence of Ca2+ and Pi. An assay for matrix vesicle nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase is developed using beta, gamma-methylene ATP as substrate. The assay is effective in the presence of matrix vesicle-associated ATPase, pyrophosphatase, and alkaline phosphatase activities. A soluble nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase is obtained from matrix vesicles by treatment with 5 mM sodium deoxycholate. The solubilized enzyme induced the precipitation of calcium phosphate in the presence of ATP, Ca2+, and Pi. Extraction of deoxycholate-solubilized enzymes from matrix vesicles with 1-butanol destroys nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase activity while enhancing the specific activities of ATPase, pyrophosphatase, and alkaline phosphatase. In solutions devoid of ATP and matrix vesicles, concentrations of PPi between 10 and 100 microM induce calcification in mixtures containing initial Ca2+ X P ion products of 3.5 to 7.9 mM2. This finding plus the discovery of nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase in matrix vesicles supports the view that these extracellular organelles induce calcium precipitation by the enzymatic production of PPi. Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase is more active against pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphates than the corresponding purine derivatives. The pH optimum is 10.0 and the enzyme is neither activated nor inhibited by Mg2+ or Ca2+ ions or mixtures of the two. Vmax at pH 7.5 for beta, gamma-methylene ATP is 0.012 mumol of substrate hydrolyzed per min per mg of protein and Km is below 10 microM. The enzyme is irreversibly destroyed at pH 4 and is stable at pH 10.5. 相似文献

The effects of lipid peroxidation on latent microsomal enzyme activities were examined in NADPH-reduced microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated male rats. Lipid peroxidation, stimulated by iron or carbon tetrachloride, was assayed as malondialdehyde formation. Independent of the stimulating agent of lipid peroxidation, latency of microsomal nucleoside diphosphatase activity remained unaffected up to microsomal peroxidation equivalent to the formation of about 12 nmol malondialdehyde/mg microsomal protein. However, above this threshold a close correlation was found between lipid peroxidation and loss of latent enzyme activity. The loss of latency evoked by lipid peroxidation was comparable to the loss of latency attainable by disrupting the microsomal membrane by detergent. Loss of latent enzyme activity produced by lipid peroxidation was also observed for microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase and UDPglucuronyltransferase. In contrast to nucleoside diphosphatase, however, both enzymes were inactivated by lipid peroxidation, as indicated by pronounced decreases of their activities in detergent-treated microsomes. According to the respective optimal oxygen partial pressure (po2) for lipid peroxidation, the iron-mediated effects on enzyme activities were maximal at a po2 of 80 mmHg and the one mediated by carbon tetrachloride at a po2 of 5 mmHg. Under anaerobic conditions no alterations of enzyme activities were detected. These results demonstrate that loss of microsomal latency only occurs when peroxidation of the microsomal membrane has reached a certain extent, and that beyond this threshold lipid peroxidation leads to severe disintegration of the microsomal membrane resulting in a loss of its selective permeability, a damage which should be of pathological consequences for the liver cell. Because of its resistance against lipid peroxidation nucleoside diphosphatase is a well-suited intrinsic microsomal parameter to estimate this effect of lipid peroxidation on the microsomal membrane. 相似文献

Taenia pisiformis: protective immunization of rabbits with solubilized oncospheral antigens 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Antigens were derived from hatched and activated oncospheres of Taenia pisiformis which had been separated from embryophoric debris by centrifugation on Percoll. Crude oncospheral antigen was prepared by freeze-thawing and sonication of oncospheres at 4 C, and a supernatant of crude antigen was collected following centrifugation at 100,000g. Other antigens tested were the supernatants collected after 100,000g centrifugation of crude antigen solubilized in Triton X-100, butanol, lithium diiodosalicylic acid, KCl, sodium dodecyl sulfate, or sodium deoxycholate. When groups of rabbits were immunized with the various antigens and challenged with T. pisiformis eggs, both sodium deoxycholate- and Triton X-100-solubilized antigens stimulated a level of protection similar to the crude antigen. All other antigens failed to stimulate significant protective immunity. When sodium deoxycholate-solubilized antigen was fractionated using high-performance liquid chromatography, the major host-protective components were in the fractions with molecular weight greater than 140,000. Levels of the enzyme, glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.2), in the serum of rabbits challenged with T. pisiformis eggs closely reflected the degree of liver damage caused by migrating larvae, and were not markedly elevated in those rabbits effectively immunized using the crude or sodium deoxycholate-solubilized antigens. 相似文献

Demonstration of separate phosphotyrosyl- and phosphoseryl- histone phosphatase activities in the plasma membranes of a human astrocytoma 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A plasma membrane preparation from a human astrocytoma contained p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP), phosphotyrosyl histone, and phosphoseryl histone hydrolysis activities. The pNPPase and phosphotyrosyl histone phosphatase activities were inhibited by vanadate, whereas the phosphoseryl histone phosphatase activity was not; the latter activity was inhibited by pyrophosphate and nucleoside di- and triphosphates. When the membranes were solubilized by Triton X-100 and the solubilized proteins were subjected to column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex, Sepharose 6B-C1, and wheat germ agglutinin-Sepharose 4B columns, the pNPPase activity from the phosphoseryl histone phosphatase activity. The results from column chromatography also indicated that there may be multiple phosphotyrosyl and phosphoseryl protein phosphatases in the plasma membranes. 相似文献

Ecto-nucleoside-triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-6 (eNTPDase6(1), also known as CD39L2) cDNA was expressed in mammalian COS-1 cells and characterized using nucleotidase assays as well as size exclusion, anion exchange, and cation exchange chromatography. The deduced amino acid sequence of eNTPDase6 is more homologous with the soluble E-type ATPase, eNTPDase5, than other E-type ATPases, suggesting it may also be soluble. To test this possibility, both the cell membranes and the growth media from eNTPDase6-transfected COS-1 cells were assayed for nucleotidase activities. Activity was found in both the membranes and the media. Soluble eNTPDase6 preferentially exhibits nucleoside diphosphatase activity, which is dependent on the presence of divalent cations. Western blot analysis of eNTPDase6 treated with PNGase-F indicated both soluble and membrane-bound forms are glycosylated. However, unlike some membrane-bound ecto-nucleotidases, the eNTPDase6 activity was not specifically inhibited by deglycosylation with peptide N-glycosidase F. Soluble eNTPDase6 hydrolyzed nucleoside triphosphates poorly and nucleoside monophosphates not at all. Analysis of the relative rates of hydrolysis of nucleoside diphosphates (GDP = IDP > UDP > CDP > ADP) suggests that soluble eNTPDase6 is a diphosphatase most likely not involved in regulation of ADP levels important for circulatory hemostasis. 相似文献

A new species of orthophosphate repressible extracellular 5'-nucleotidase (5'-ribonucleotide phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.5) was found to be released into mycelial culture media when a wild type strain of Neurospora crassa was grown on limiting amounts of phosphate. The production of 5'-nucleotidase and extracellular acid and alkaline phosphatase was inhibited by the addition of rifampicin when it was added at the later stage of mycelial growth, but not when it was added at a very early stage. The 5'-nucleotidase and extracellular alkaline phosphatase were partially purified and characterized. pH optimum of the former was 6.8 and that of the latter was higher than 10.0. The 5'-nucleotidase activity was inhibited by ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) and ZnCl2 at pH 6.8 and stimulated by MnCl2 and CoCl2 at pH 4.0. Alkaline phosphatase activity was stimulated by EDTA, MgCl2, CoCl2 and MnCl2. 5'-nucleotidase activity was stimulated by EDTA, MgCl2, CoCl2 and MnCl2. 5'-nucleotidase hydrolyzed various 5'-nucletides but not 3'-nucleotides or other various phosphomono- and diester compounds. Alkaline phosphatase hydrolyzed all the phosphomonoester compounds tested. Mutants, nuc-1 and nuc-2, which were originally isolated by the inability to utilize RNA or DNA as a sole source of phosphate, were unable to produce 5'-nucleotidase or six other repressible enzymes reported previously. These mutants showed no or significantly reduced growth on orthophosphate-free nucleotide media depending on the number of conidia inoculated, mainly because of loss of ability to produce these repressible extracellular phosphatases. 相似文献

Pellicles were isolated from Paramecium caudatum for a study of the properties of its insoluble ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity. Pellicular ATPase was solubilized by sonication and fractionated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The sedimentation coefficient of the ATPase was about 9S. The ATPase required Ca2+ for maximum activation. Addition of neutral salts to the assay medium inhibited the activity. Substrate specificity for ATP was low; other nucleoside triphosphates were hydrolyzed at about the same rate as ATP; AMP, pyrophosphate, and p-nitrophenyl phosphate were not hydrolyzed. The ATPase activity of the pellicle preparation had a pH optimum at pH 6.5, and a Michaelis constant of 9 micrometer. On the other hand, the enzymatic properties of the ATPase were somewhat modified by the procedure of solubilization and fractionation. The pellicular ATPase does not resemble ciliary dynein ATPase or the soluble ATPase of Tetrahymena. 相似文献

In this report we present evidence for the existence of a lysosomal ganglioside sialidase. The sialidase activity was solubilized by sonication and stimulated by cholate. The absence of ganglioside sialidase activity in sialidosis patients indicates that lysosomal sialidase is active towards gangliosides and glycoproteins. The plasma membranes were associated with two types of ganglioside sialidase activities, one was enhanced by cholate while the other was partially inhibited by this detergent. 相似文献

Cytidine 5'-diphosphate (CDP)-diglyceride is hydrolyzed to phosphatidic acid and cytidine 5'-monophosphate by a specific membrane-bound enzyme in cell-free extracts of Escherichia coli. The hydrolase can be extracted from the particulate fraction with Triton X-100 and purified 1,000-fold in the presence of this detergent. Several nucleoside disphosphate diglycerides were synthesized to determine the substrate specificity of the hydrolase. CDP-diglyceride was hydrolyzed preferentially, although uridine 5'-diphosphate-diglyceride, guanosine 5'-diphosphate-diglyceride, and adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP)-diglyceride were also slowly hydrolyzed. Surprisingly, the purified enzyme did not catalyze detectable cleavage of deoxy-CDP (dCDP)-diglyceride. The liponucleotide pool of E. coli contains dCDP-diglyceride and CDP-diglyceride in approximately equal amounts (Raetz and Kennedy, 1973). Water-soluble nucleoside pyrophosphates, such as CDP-choline, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or adenosine 5'-triphosphate are not attacked by this specific hydrolase. Hydrolysis of CDP-diglyceride is strongly inhibited by adenosine 5'-monophosphate and by ADP-diglyceride. 相似文献

The membrane-bound ATPase of Mycoplasma gallisepticum selectively hydrolyzed purine nucleoside triphosphates and dATP. ADP, although not a substrate, inhibited ATP hydrolysis. The enzyme exhibited a pH optimum of 7.0 to 7.5 and an obligatory requirement for divalent cations. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at a concentration of 1 mM inhibited 95% of the ATPase activity at 37 degrees C, with 50% inhibition occurring at 22 microM dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Sodium or potassium (or both) failed to stimulate activity by greater than 37%. Azide (2.6 mM), diethylstilbestrol (100 micrograms/ml), p-chloromercuribenzoate (1 mM), and vanadate (50 microM) inhibited 50, 91, 89, and 60%, respectively. The ATPase activity could not be removed from the membrane without detergent solubilization. Although most detergents inactivated the enzyme, the dipolar ionic detergent N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate (0.1%) solubilized approximately 70% of the enzyme with only a minor loss in activity. The extraction led to a twofold increase in specific activity and retention of inhibition by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and ADP. Glycerol greatly increased the stability of the solubilized enzyme. The properties of the membrane-bound ATPase are not consistent with any known ATPase. We postulate that the ATPase functions as an electrogenic proton pump. 相似文献
