The enzymatic acylation of isoquercitrin with fatty acid esters of various carbon chain lengths was carried out in 2-methyl-2-butanol using Novozym 435®. The conversion yield and the initial rate decreased from 66% to 38% and from 17.7 to 10.1 μmol/h respectively, as the carbon chain of the acyl donor increased from C4 to C18. Isoquercitrin acylated derivatives showed higher xanthine oxidase inhibition activities than isoquercitrin. This property increased with the lipophilicity of the derivative esters. The scavenging activity of isoquercitrin esters against ABTS and DPPH radicals decreased with the acyl chain length. Conversely, for esters from C6 to C18, a linear growing relationship can be established between the chain length and the superoxide radical scavenging activity. Furthermore, an improved antiproliferative effect on Caco2 cancer cells was induced by addition of isoquercitrin esters comparing with isoquercitrin. 相似文献

Formation of galactose‐acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols has been shown to be induced by leaf homogenization, mechanical wounding, avirulent bacterial infection and thawing after snap‐freezing. Here, lipidomic analysis using mass spectrometry showed that galactose‐acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols, formed in wheat (Triticum aestivum) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) leaves upon wounding, have acyl‐galactose profiles that differ from those of wounded Arabidopsis thaliana, indicating that different plant species accumulate different acyl‐galactose components in response to the same stress. Additionally, the composition of the acyl‐galactose component of Arabidopsis acMGDG (galactose‐acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerol) depends on the stress treatment. After sub‐lethal freezing treatment, acMGDG contained mainly non‐oxidized fatty acids esterified to galactose, whereas mostly oxidized fatty acids accumulated on galactose after wounding or bacterial infection. Compositional data are consistent with acMGDG being formed in vivo by transacylation with fatty acids from digalactosyldiacylglycerols. Oxophytodienoic acid, an oxidized fatty acid, was more concentrated on the galactosyl ring of acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols than in galactolipids in general. Also, oxidized fatty acid‐containing acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols increased cumulatively when wounded Arabidopsis leaves were wounded again. These findings suggest that, in Arabidopsis, the pool of galactose‐acylated monogalactosyldiacylglycerols may serve to sequester oxidized fatty acids during stress responses. 相似文献

The stability of the complex formed between acylated anthocyanins and flavocommelin was compared with that between unacylated anthocyanins and the flavone. At low anthocyanin concentrations (5 × 10?4 M), the complex involving acylated anthocyanins was much stabler than that involving ordinary anthocyanins. This extra stability is due to the acyl moiety in the acylated anthocyanins. The co-pigmentation constant (Kc) is defined as the affinity between an anthocyanin and its co-pigment. 相似文献

Our present investigation describes the regioselective enzymatic acylation of two series of acylated derivatives of phloridzin and isoquercitrin with six different long chain saturated, mono- and poly-unsaturated fatty acids. The biocatalytic synthesis was optimized to achieve 81–98% yields, using immobilized lipase B, from Candida antarctica (Novozym 435®), in acetone at 45 °C. The synthesized esters have been analyzed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and evaluated for their antioxidant capacity and tyrosinase inhibition, using in vitro assays. Among all the phloridzin and isoquercitrin derivatives, the greatest potential for inhibition of tyrosinase activity (p ?0.05) was exhibited by the α-linolenic acid ester of isoquercitrin. 相似文献

Enzymatic synthesis of acylated derivatives of a monosaccharidic flavonoid chrysoeriol-7-O-beta-D-(3'-E-p-coumaroyl)-glucopyranoside as well as of a disaccharidic flavonoid chrysoeriol-7-[6'-O-acetyl-beta-D-allosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside], isolated from Greek endemic plants, was performed using an immobilized Candida antarctica lipase in non-toxic organic solvents. The influence of the reaction parameters such as the molar ratio of acyl donor to flavonoid, as well as the nature of the acyl donor, on the performance of the biocatalytic process was pointed out using the acylation of naringin as a model reaction. With vinyl laurate as acyl donor, the highest conversion was observed at relatively high molar ratio (>or=10), using acetone as solvent. Lipase exhibits specificity towards primary alcohol of the glucose moiety of both flavonoid glycosides. The introduction of an acyl group into glucosylated flavonoids significantly improved their antioxidant activity towards both LDL and serum model in vitro. Furthermore, the acylated derivative of disaccharidic flavonoid increased its antimicrobial activity against two Gram-positive bacteria. 相似文献

Intracellular proteins of eukaryotic cells are frequently covalently modified by the addition of long chain fatty acids. These modifications are thought to allow otherwise soluble proteins to associate with membranes by lipid-lipid based hydrophobic interactions. The purpose of this work was to quantify the effect of acyl chain length on hydrophobic interactions between acylated proteins and phospholipid monolayers. The binding of an artificially acylated model protein to electrically neutral phospholipids was studied by surface plasmon resonance, using BIACORE. Kinetic rates for the binding of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A), monoacylated on its N-terminal lysine with fatty acids of 10, 12, 14, 16 or 18 carbon atoms, to phospholipids on hydrophobic sensor chips, were measured. Unlike unmodified ribonuclease, acylated RNase A bound to the phospholipids, and the association level increased with the acyl chain length to reach a maximum for C16. Reproducible kinetics were obtained which did not fit a 1:1 Langmuir model but rather a two-step binding profile. 相似文献

A simple and efficient method for removing excess acyl donors following enzymatic acylations in organic solvents was developed. This method is based on selective chemical scavenging of acyl donors using an amino-functionalized solid support, and does not affect the desired acylated product. A wide variety of different acyl donors, including vinyl and trifluoroethyl esters and vinyl carbonates, can be quantitatively removed by this method, thus providing a simple and highly efficient tool for purification of reaction products after enzymatic acylation. 相似文献

Lipid A anchors the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to the outer membrane and is usually composed of a hexa‐acylated diglucosamine backbone. Burkholderia cenocepacia, an opportunistic pathogen, produces a mixture of tetra‐ and penta‐acylated lipid A. “Late” acyltransferases add secondary acyl chains to lipid A after the incorporation of four primary acyl chains to the diglucosamine backbone. Here, we report that B. cenocepacia has only one late acyltransferase, LpxL (BCAL0508), which adds a myristoyl chain to the 2′ position of lipid A resulting in penta‐acylated lipid A. We also identified PagL (BCAL0788), which acts as an outer membrane lipase by removing the primary β ‐hydroxymyristate (3‐OH‐C14:0) chain at the 3 position, leading to tetra‐acylated lipid A. Unlike PagL, LpxL depletion caused reduced cell growth and defects in cell morphology, both of which were suppressed by overexpressing the LPS flippase MsbA (BCAL2408), suggesting that lipid A molecules lacking the fifth acyl chain contributed by LpxL are not good substrates for the flippase. We also show that intracellular B. cenocepacia within macrophages produced more penta‐acylated lipid A, suggesting lipid A penta‐acylation in B. cenocepacia is required not only for bacterial growth and morphology but also for adaptation to intracellular lifestyle. 相似文献

Fatty acid reduction in Photobacterium phosphoreum is catalyzed in a coupled reaction by two enzymes: acyl-protein synthetase, which activates fatty acids (+ATP), and a reductase, which reduces activated fatty acids (+NADPH) to aldehyde. Although the synthetase and reductase can be acylated with fatty acid (+ATP) and acyl-CoA, respectively, evidence for acyl transfer between these proteins has not yet been obtained. Experimental conditions have now been developed to increase significantly (5-30-fold) the level of protein acylation so that 0.4-0.8 mol of fatty acyl groups are incorporated per mole of the synthetase or reductase subunit. The acylated reductase polypeptide migrated faster on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis than the unlabeled polypeptide, with a direct 1 to 1 correspondence between the moles of acyl group incorporated and the moles of polypeptide migrating at this new position. The presence of 2-mercaptoethanol or NADPH, but not NADP, substantially decreased labeling of the reductase enzyme, and kinetic studies demonstrated that the rate of covalent incorporation of the acyl group was 3-5 times slower than its subsequent reduction with NADPH to aldehyde. When mixtures of the synthetase and reductase polypeptides were incubated with [3H] tetradecanoic acid (+ATP) or [3H]tetradecanoyl-CoA, both polypeptides were acylated to high levels, with the labeling again being decreased by 2-mercaptoethanol or NADPH. These results have demonstrated that acylation of the reductase represents an intermediate and rate-limiting step in fatty acid reduction. Moreover, the activated acyl groups are transferred in a reversible reaction between the synthetase and reductase proteins in the enzyme mechanism. 相似文献

A general method for identification of fatty acids covalently bound to acylated proteins following their electrophoretic transfer onto nitrocellulose paper is described. As demonstrated for [3H]palmitoylated RAS1 protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the acylated acyl carrier protein of Spirodela oligorrhiza, this procedure alleviates the need for elution of proteins from polyacrylamide gel slices. Fatty acid ligands of such proteins are hydrolyzed directly from their immobilized state on the nitrocellulose paper, then derivatized with p-nitrophenacyl bromide, and finally resolved by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The amount of acylated protein required for identification of acyl groups is minimized compared to that required for more conventional approaches by coupling a radioactive flow detector with the HPLC system. 相似文献

Eight α-N-acyl colistin nonapeptide derivatives including three aliphatic, four aromatic and one alicyclic derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of colistin nonapeptide with corresponding acid chlorides. This acylation reaction was carried out under the condition kept restrictedly at pH 5,0 in order to introduce an acyl group only to α-amino group but not to γ-amino group existing in a colistin nonapeptide molecule. Synthetic method and several physico-chemical natures of these acyl colistin nonapeptide derivatives are given in this paper.All of the acylated derivatives thus synthesized exhibited characteristic antimicrobial activities. Antimicrobial spectra were substantially based upon a gram-negative type and not so much altered by chemical structures of acyl groups which were considerably differentiated from each other such as cyclic or chain form. Thus, more possible response of carbon size than its structure to the antimicrobial effectiveness was inferred. In spite of almost no toxicity and feeble antimicrobial activity of colistin nonapeptide itself, these acylated colistin nonapeptide derivatives showed a toxicity against mice at a dose of 16.9~70 mg/kg in LD50, which, however, was inferior to the toxicity of colistin sulfate, possibly correspondent to their much weaker antimicrobial activities, as a whole. Hence, it seems likely that acyl part of these acylated colistin nonapeptide derivatives including that of colistin is seriously responsible for the biological activities. 相似文献

A knowledge of the structures of acyl chain loaded species of the acyl carrier protein (ACP) as used in fatty acid biosynthesis and a range of other metabolic events, is essential for a full understanding of the molecular recognition at the heart of these processes. To date the only crystal structure of an acylated species of ACP is that of a butyryl derivative of Escherichia coli ACP. We have now determined the structures of a family of acylated E. coli ACPs of varying acyl chain length. The acyl moiety is attached via a thioester bond to a phosphopantetheine linker that is in turn bound to a serine residue in ACP. The growing acyl chain can be accommodated within a central cavity in the ACP for transport during the elongation stages of lipid synthesis through changes in the conformation of a four alpha-helix bundle. The results not only clarify the means by which a substrate of varying size and complexity is transported in the cell but also suggest a mechanism by which interacting enzymes can recognize the loaded ACP through recognition of surface features including the conformation of the phosphopantetheine linker. 相似文献

Rapid in Vivo Acylation of Acyl Carrier Protein with Exogenous Fatty Acids in Spirodela oligorrhiza 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3
Posttranslational acylation of several chloroplast proteins with palmitic acid was recently demonstrated in Spirodela oligorrhiza (AK Mattoo, M Edelman [1987] Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 84: 1497-1501). We have now identified an in vivo acylated, soluble protein having an apparent Mr of 10 kilodaltons on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as an acylated form of acyl carrier protein (ACP). This 10-kilodalton protein is present in low abundance, and its acylation is light-stimulated. Turnover of the acyl moiety but not the apo-protein is rapid in the light. The acylated 10-kilodalton protein coelectrophoreses with in vitro synthesized palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein and is immunoprecipitated from soluble extracts with an antibody raised against spinach ACP. Cerulenin, an inhibitor of β-ketoacyl-ACP synthetase, inhibited in vivo acylation of Spirodela ACP. Cell-free extracts of Spirodela plants were able to catalyze the transfer of palmitate from palmitoyl-CoA to ACP, suggesting the existence in higher plants of a pathway for acylation of ACP that involves transacylation from acyl-CoA. 相似文献

A membrane-bound phospholipid : steryl glucoside acyltransferase from Solanum melongena leaves was partially purified and its specificity and molecular as well as kinetic properties were defined. Among the steryl glycosides tested (e.g. typical plant steryl glucosides, steryl galactosides and cholesteryl xyloside) the highest activity was found with cholesteryl glucoside, but some structurally related compounds such as sito- and stigmasteryl glucoside or galactoside as well as cholesteryl galactoside were also acylated, albeit at lower rates. The investigated enzyme was able to use all classes of phosphoglycerolipids (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol) as an acyl source for biosynthesis of acylated steryl glucoside. Among them 1,2-dimirystoylphosphatidylic acid appeared to be the best acyl donor. Apart from phosphoglycerolipids, 1,2-diacylglycerols were also used as acyl donor for steryl glucoside acylation, although at a distinctly lower rate. The acyl moiety was transferred from the C-1 position of phospholipid molecule. The investigated acyltransferase activity was stimulated by 2-mercaptoethanol, Triton X-100, 1-monoacylglycerols and inhibited in the presence of divalent cations such as Ca(2+), Mn(2+), Zn(2+) or Co(2+), some lipids (MDGD, ceramide), detergents (Tween 20, 40, 60 and 80, Tyloxapol, sodium deoxycholate) and high ionic strength. 相似文献

Escherichia coli acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC), the first enzyme of the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway, is inhibited by acylated derivatives of acyl carrier protein (ACP). ACP lacking an acyl moiety does not inhibit ACC. Acylated derivatives of ACP having chain lengths of 6 to 20 carbon atoms were similarly inhibitory at physiologically relevant concentrations. The observed feedback inhibition was specific to the protein moiety, as shown by the inability of the palmitoyl thioester of spinach ACP I to inhibit ACC. 相似文献

Anthocyanidin 3-glucosides and 3-sambubiosides acylated with 4-coumarate or caffeate were identified in flower extracts of lines of Matthiola incana with wild-type alleles of the gene u. An enzyme activity was demonstrated catalysing the acylation of 3-glucosides and 3-sambubiosides with 4-coumarate or caffeate using the respective CoA esters as acyl donors. Anthocyanins glycosylated in both the 3- and 5-positions were not acylated. The enzyme exhibited an pH optimum at 6.5 and was inhibited by divalent ions, EDTA, diethylpyrocarbonate and p-chloromercuribenzoate. Accumulation of acylated 3-glycosides during bud development is correlated with acyltransferase activity. In confirmation of the chemogenetic work, acyltransferase activity was found only in enzyme extracts from flowers of lines with the wild-type allele u+. 相似文献

Particulate enzyme preparations of cotton fibers catalyze the acylation of exogenous steryl glucoside to form acylated steryl glucoside. The acyl transferase involved in this reaction was solubilized by treatment of the membrane fractions with Triton X-100 and was partially purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration. This solubilized enzyme had an absolute requirement for Triton X-100 and phospholipid in order to catalyze the acylation of the steryl glucoside. The best phospholipid substrate was phosphatidylethanolamine but egg and soybean phosphatidylcholine were also active. The phospholipid was shown to function as an acyl donor by demonstrating that [14C]fatty acid from 14C-labeled phospholipid could be transferred to steryl-[3H]glucoside to form [14C,3H]acylated steryl glucoside. Saponification of this compound yielded [14C]fatty acid and steryl-[7H]glucoside. 相似文献

Identification of the acyl transfer site of fatty acyl-protein synthetase from bioluminescent bacteria 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fatty acid activation, transfer, and reduction by the fatty acid reductase multienzyme complex from Photobacterium phosphoreum to generate fatty aldehydes for the luminescence reaction is regulated by the interaction of the synthetase and reductase subunits of this complex. Identification of the specific site involved in covalent transfer of the fatty acyl group between the sites of activation and reduction on the synthetase and reductase subunits, respectively, is a critical step in understanding how subunit interactions modulate the flow of fatty acyl groups through the fatty acid reductase complex. To accomplish this goal, the nucleotide sequence of the luxE gene coding for the acyl-protein synthetase subunit (373 amino acid residues) was determined and the conserved cysteinyl residues implicated in fatty acyl transfer identified. Using site-specific mutagenesis, each of the five conserved cysteine residues was converted to a serine residue, the mutated synthetases expressed in Escherichia coli, and the properties of the mutant proteins examined. On complementation of four of the mutants with the reductase subunit, the synthetase subunit was acylated and the acyl group could be reversibly transferred between the reductase and synthetase subunits, and fatty acid reductase activity was fully regenerated. As well, sensitivity of the acylated synthetases to hydroxylamine cleavage (under denaturation conditions to remove any conformational effects on reactivity) was retained, showing that a cysteine and not a serine residue was still acylated. However, substitution of a cysteine residue only ten amino acid residues from the carboxyl terminal (C364S) prevented acylation of the synthetase and regeneration of fatty acid reductase activity. Moreover, this mutant protein preserved its ability to activate fatty acid to fatty acyl-AMP but could not accept the acyl group from the reductase subunit, demonstrating that the C364S synthetase had retained its conformation and specifically lost the fatty acylation site. These results provide evidence that the flow of fatty acyl groups in the fatty acid reductase complex is modulated by interaction of the reductase subunit with a cysteine residue very close to the carboxyl terminal of the synthetase, which in turn acts as a flexible arm to transfer acyl groups between the sites of activation and reduction. 相似文献

In vitro acylation of the transferrin receptor 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

In vitro fatty acylation of the transferrin receptor with [3H]tetradecanoate or [3H]tetradecanoyl-CoA has been demonstrated for isolated sheep reticulocyte plasma membranes. Although less than 5% of the receptor was labeled in vitro, the acylated protein could be readily observed after sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. The acylated transferrin receptor in the reticulocyte membrane was specifically precipitated with a monoclonal antibody and was absent from mature red cell membranes. Incorporation of fatty acid was dependent on ATP, and fatty acid was 5-10 times less effective as an acyl donor than the acyl-CoA derivative, pointing out the strong potential of this reagent for in vitro acylation of membrane proteins. During in vitro maturation of reticulocytes, the receptor is released in vesicles into the incubation medium. Using reticulocytes labeled with [3H]tetradecanoate, it can be shown that the 3H-labeled receptor is transferred from the cells to the vesicles without loss of acyl groups, suggesting that the vesiculation process does not involve deacylation. 相似文献
