The annexins are a family of homologous Ca2(+)- and phospholipid-binding proteins that until now have only been found in vertebrates. cDNA clones encoding two novel annexins from Drosophila melanogaster were isolated and characterized. RNA blots indicate that the messages for the two Drosophila proteins are differentially expressed in development, with one message being expressed throughout development, while the other is only found in early embryos and adult flies. In situ hybridizations localize the two Drosophila genes to 93B and 19A-4,7. A similarly high degree of homology relates Drosophila annexins to different vertebrate annexins, indicating that the Drosophila annexins are not the invertebrate homologues of particular mammalian annexins but that they constitute novel members of the annexin gene family. In continuation with a recently established terminology, the Drosophila annexins will be named annexins IX and X. The biochemical properties of Drosophila annexin X were investigated using recombinant protein. Similar to vertebrate annexins, annexin X bound to liver membranes and liposomes containing phosphatidylserine in a calcium-dependent manner but not to liposomes containing phosphatidylcholine. In addition, annexin X partitioned into the detergent phase of Triton X-114 as a function of calcium. The conservation of the annexin family of Ca2(+)-binding proteins in invertebrates suggests that they have a basic function in cells which is not peculiar to vertebrate biology, and the availability of the Drosophila sequences will open avenues for mutational studies of these functions. 相似文献

The isolation, cloning, and sequencing of two full-length cDNAs corresponding to the root tip forms of the maize (Zea mays L. cv Clipper) annexins p33 and p35 are described. These are the first complete sequences for the widely reported doublet of plant annexins. The predicted sequences can be divided into four repeat domains characteristic of the annexin family, but Ca2+ binding by the type-II site typical of annexins would be predicted to occur only in repeats 1 and 4. This reduced number of sites is consistent with previously reported biochemical data indicating a high Ca2+ requirement for membrane association. Although the two annexins are very similar (80% amino acid identity), their genes are quite distinct, as demonstrated by their different 3' noncoding regions and Southern blotting. The predicted sequences of the root tip proteins are very similar to regions known from peptide sequencing of the coleoptile proteins. Because a rather small gene family is indicated, the implication is that there may be less functional diversity than in animal cells. Furthermore, the sequence data clearly show that plant annexins form a very distinct group compared with those from other kingdoms. 相似文献

Plant annexins are Ca2+-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins and are encoded by multigene families. They are implicated in the regulation of plant
development as well as protection from drought and other stresses. They are well characterized in Arabidopsis, however no such characterization of rice annexin gene family has been reported thus far. With the availability of the rice
genome sequence information, we have identified ten members of the rice annexin gene family. At the protein level, they share
16–64% identity with predicted molecular masses ranging from 32 to 40 kDa. Phylogenetic analysis of rice annexins together
with annexins from other monocots led to their classification into five different orthologous groups and share similar motif
patterns in their protein sequences. Expression analysis by real-time RT-PCR revealed differential temporal and spatial regulation
of these genes. The rice annexin genes are also found to be regulated in seedling stage by various abiotic stressors including
salinity, drought, heat and cold. Additionally, in silico analysis of the putative upstream sequences was analyzed for the
presence of stress-responsive cis-elements. These results provide a basis for further functional characterization of specific rice annexin genes at the tissue/developmental
level and in response to abiotic stresses. 相似文献

Annexin homologues in the kingdoms of Planta and Protista were characterized by molecular sequence analysis to determine
their phylogenetic and structural relationship with annexins of Animalia. Sequence fragments from 19 plant annexins were identified
in sequence databases and composite sequences were also assembled from expressed sequence tags for Arabidopsis thaliana. Length differences in protein amino-termini and evidence for unique exon splice sites indicated that plant annexins were
distinct from those of animals. A third annexin gene of Giardia lamblia (Anx21-Gla) was identified as a distant relative to other protist annexins and to those of higher eukaryotes, thus providing a suitable
outgroup for evolutionary reconstruction of the family tree. Rooted evolutionary trees portrayed protist, plant, and Dictyostelium annexins as early, monophyletic ramifications prior to the appearance of closely related animal annexin XIII. Molecular phylogenetic
analyses of DNA and protein sequence alignments revealed at least seven separate plant subfamilies, represented by Anx18 (alfalfa, previously classified), Anx22 (thale cress), Anx23 (thale cress, cotton, rape and cabbage), Anx24 (bell pepper and tomato p34), Anx25 (strawberry, horseradish, pea, soybean, and castor bean), Anx26-Zma, and Anx27-Zma (maize). Other unique subfamilies may exist for rice, tomato p35, apple, and celery annexins. Consensus sequences compiled
for each eukaryotic kingdom showed some breakdown of the ``annexin-fold' motif in repeats 2 and 3 of protist and plant annexins
and a conserved codon deletion in repeat 3 of plants. The characterization of distinct annexin genes in plants and protists
reflects their comparable diversity among animal species and offers alternative models for the comparative study of structure–function
relationships within this important gene family.

Most annexins are calcium-dependent, phospholipid-binding proteins with suggested functions in response to environmental stresses and signaling during plant growth and development. They have previously been identified and characterized in Arabidopsis and rice, and constitute a multigene family in plants. In this study, we performed a comparative analysis of annexin gene families in the sequenced genomes of Viridiplantae ranging from unicellular green algae to multicellular plants, and identified 149 genes. Phylogenetic studies of these deduced annexins classified them into nine different arbitrary groups. The occurrence and distribution of bona fide type II calcium binding sites within the four annexin domains were found to be different in each of these groups. Analysis of chromosomal distribution of annexin genes in rice, Arabidopsis and poplar revealed their localization on various chromosomes with some members also found on duplicated chromosomal segments leading to gene family expansion. Analysis of gene structure suggests sequential or differential loss of introns during the evolution of land plant annexin genes. Intron positions and phases are well conserved in annexin genes from representative genomes ranging from Physcomitrella to higher plants. The occurrence of alternative motifs such as K/R/HGD was found to be overlapping or at the mutated regions of the type II calcium binding sites indicating potential functional divergence in certain plant annexins. This study provides a basis for further functional analysis and characterization of annexin multigene families in the plant lineage. 相似文献

Annexins are Ca2+-binding, membrane-interacting proteins, widespread among eukaryotes, consisting usually of four structurally similar repeated domains. It is accepted that vertebrate annexins derive from a double genome duplication event. It has been postulated that a single domain annexin, if found, might represent a molecule related to the hypothetical ancestral annexin. The recent discovery of a single-domain annexin in a bacterium, Cytophaga hutchinsonii, apparently confirmed this hypothesis. Here, we present a more complex picture. Using remote sequence similarity detection tools, a survey of bacterial genomes was performed in search of annexin-like proteins. In total, we identified about thirty annexin homologues, including single-domain and multi-domain annexins, in seventeen bacterial species. The thorough search yielded, besides the known annexin homologue from C. hutchinsonii, homologues from the Bacteroidetes/Chlorobi phylum, from Gemmatimonadetes, from beta- and delta-Proteobacteria, and from Actinobacteria. The sequences of bacterial annexins exhibited remote but statistically significant similarity to sequence profiles built of the eukaryotic ones. Some bacterial annexins are equipped with additional, different domains, for example those characteristic for toxins. The variation in bacterial annexin sequences, much wider than that observed in eukaryotes, and different domain architectures suggest that annexins found in bacteria may actually descend from an ancestral bacterial annexin, from which eukaryotic annexins also originate. The hypothesis of an ancient origin of bacterial annexins has to be reconciled with the fact that remarkably few bacterial strains possess annexin genes compared to the thousands of known bacterial genomes and with the patchy, anomalous phylogenetic distribution of bacterial annexins. Thus, a massive annexin gene loss in several bacterial lineages or very divergent evolution would appear a likely explanation. Alternative evolutionary scenarios, involving horizontal gene transfer between bacteria and protozoan eukaryotes, in either direction, appear much less likely. Altogether, current evidence does not allow unequivocal judgement as to the origin of bacterial annexins. 相似文献

Plant annexins are Ca2+- and phospholipid-binding proteins forming an evolutionary conserved multi-gene family. They are implicated in the regulation of plant growth, development, and stress responses. With the availability of the maize genome sequence information, we identified 12 members of the maize annexin genes. Analysis of protein sequence and gene structure of maize annexins led to their classification into five different orthologous groups. Expression analysis by RT-PCR revealed that these genes are responsive to heavy metals (Ni, Zn, and Cd). The maize annexin genes were also found to be regulated by Ustilago maydis and jasmonic acid. Additionally, the promoter of the maize annexin gene was analyzed for the presence of different stress-responsive cis-elements, such as ABRE, W-box, GCC-box, and G-box. RT-PCR and microarray data show that all 12 maize annexin genes present differential, organ-specific expression patterns in the maize developmental steps. These results indicate that maize annexin genes may play important roles in the adaptation of plants to various environmental stresses. 相似文献

The annexins are a multigene family of Ca(2+)- and charged phospholipid-binding proteins. Although they have been ascribed with diverse functions, there is no consensus about the role played by this family as a whole. We have mapped the Ca(2+)-induced translocations of four members of the annexin family and of two truncated annexins in live cells, and demonstrated that these proteins interact with the plasma membrane as well as with internal membrane systems in a highly coordinated manner. Annexin 2 was the most Ca(2+) sensitive of the studied proteins, followed by annexins 6, 4 and 1. The calcium sensitivity of annexin 2 increased further following co-expression with S100A10. Upon elevation of [Ca(2+)](i), annexins 2 and 6 translocated to the plasma membrane, whereas annexins 4 and 1 also became associated with intracellular membranes and the nuclear envelope. The NH(2)-terminus had a modulatory effect on plasma membrane binding: its truncation increased the Ca(2+) sensitivity of annexin 1, and decreased that of annexin 2. Given the fact that several annexins are present within any one cell, it is likely that they form a sophisticated [Ca(2+)] sensing system, with a regulatory influence on other signaling pathways. 相似文献

Mouse annexin VIII cDNA was characterized by DNA sequencing of expressed sequence tag clones, molecular systematic analysis,
and genetic linkage mapping to investigate its evolutionary origin. Its subfamily identity, divergence pattern, and nucleotide
substitution rate were established by comparison with other annexin cDNA and deduced protein sequences. The known phylogenetic
association of annexin VIII in an evolutionary clade with annexins XI, IV, V, and VIa identified these close homologs as potential
progenitors or duplication products. Cladistic analysis confirmed the base position of annexin XI and its relationship to
annexin IV as a direct duplication product. Although annexin VIII also derived from annexin XI, the evolutionary branching
order, gene separation times, and mapping results indicated that it was probably a subsequent duplication product of annexin
IV about 300 million years ago. Dates were calibrated against the assumed separation time of 75 Mya for rodents from other
mammals, divergence rates were based on comparisons of all available annexin species, and relative rate tests implied individually
stable gene clocks for most annexins. Linkage mapping of mouse Anx8 to the centromeric region of Chromosome (Chr) 14 placed it in a more distal homology group from previously mapped Anx7 and Anx11. Despite their synteny, the combined proximity and segregation of these three annexins diminished the likelihood that they
were mutual gene duplication products.

S100 proteins are a group of EF-hand calcium-signaling proteins, many of which interact with members of the calcium- and phospholipid-binding annexin family of proteins. This calcium-sensitive interaction enables two neighboring membrane surfaces, complexed to different annexin proteins, to be brought into close proximity for membrane reorganization, using the S100 protein as a bridging molecule. S100A11 and S100A10 are two members of the S100 family found to interact with the N-termini of annexins A1 and A2, respectively. Despite the high degree of structural similarity between these two complexes and the sequences of the peptides, earlier studies have shown that there is little or no cross-reactivity between these two S100s and the annexin peptides. In the current work the specificity and the affinity of the interaction of the N-terminal sequences of annexins A1 and A2 with Ca2+-S100A11 were investigated. Through the use of alanine-scanning peptide array experiments and NMR spectroscopy, an approximate 5-fold tighter interaction was identified between Ca2+-S100A11 and annexin A2 (approximately 3 microM) compared to annexin A1 (approximately 15 microM). Chemical shift mapping revealed that the binding site for annexin A2 on S100A11 was similar to that observed for the annexin A1 but with distinct differences involving the C-terminus of the annexin A2 peptide. In addition, kinetic measurements based on NMR titration data showed that annexin A2 binding to Ca2+-S100A11 occurs at a comparable rate (approximately 120 s(-1)) to that observed for membrane fusion processes such as endo- and exocytosis. 相似文献

Annexin IV (placental anticoagulant protein II) is a member of the annexin or lipocortin family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins. A cDNA for human annexin IV was isolated from a placental library that is 675 bases longer in the 3' untranslated region than previously reported, indicating the existence of alternative mRNA processing for this gene. Genomic Southern blotting with a cDNA probe indicated a gene size of 18-56 kb. Primers developed for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) allowed amplification of a 1.6-kb portion of the ANX4 gene. DNA sequence analysis showed that this PCR product contained a single intron with exon-intron boundaries in exactly the same position as in the mouse annexin I and annexin II genes. PCR analysis of a somatic cell hybrid panel mapped the ANX4 gene to chromosome 2, and in situ hybridization with a cDNA probe showed a unique locus for ANX4 at 2p13. This study provides further evidence that genes for the annexins are dispersed throughout the genome but are similar in size and exon-intron organization. 相似文献

The annexinopathies: a new category of diseases 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Rand JH 《Biochimica et biophysica acta》2000,1498(2-3):169-173
The annexins are a family of highly homologous phospholipid binding proteins, which share a four-domain structure, with one member of the family - annexin VI - having a duplication consisting of eight domains. Thus far, ten annexins have been described in mammals. Although the biological functions of the annexins have not been definitively established, two human diseases involving annexin abnormalities ('annexinopathies') have been identified as of the time of writing. Overexpression of annexin II occurs in the leukocytes of a subset of patients having a hemorrhagic form of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Underexpression of annexin V occurs on placental trophoblasts in the antiphospholipid syndrome and in preeclampsia. Also, an animal model has been described in which annexin VII is underexpressed and is associated with disease, but the relevance of this animal model to human disease is not yet understood. Future research is likely to elucidate additional 'annexinopathies'. 相似文献

Annexins are a family of proteins that bind phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner. Analysis of the sequences of the different members of the annexin family revealed the presence of a pentapeptide biochemically related to KFERQ in some annexins but not in others. Such sequences have been proposed to be a targeting sequence for chaperone-mediated autophagy, a lysosomal pathway of protein degradation that is activated in confluent cells in response to removal of serum growth factors. We demonstrate that annexins II and VI, which contain KFERQ-like sequences, are degraded more rapidly in response to serum withdrawal, while annexins V and XI, without such sequences, are degraded at the same rate in the presence and absence of serum. Using isolated lysosomes, only the annexins containing KFERQ-like sequences are degraded by chaperone mediated-autophagy. Annexins V and XI could associate with lysosomes but did not enter the lysosomes and were not proteolytic substrates. Furthermore, four annexins containing KFERQ-like sequences, annexins I, II, IV, and VI, are enriched in lysosomes with high chaperone-mediated autophagy activity as expected for substrate proteins. These results provide striking evidence for the importance of KFERQ motifs in substrates of chaperone-mediated autophagy. 相似文献

Annexins have been suggested to play pivotal roles in stress resistance and plant development. However, related studies on fruit-bearing plants, especially on fruit development, are very limited. In the present study, we provide a comprehensive overview of the annexin family in tomato, describing the gene structure, promoter cis-regulatory elements, organ expression profile, and gene expression patterns under hormone and stress treatments. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that the nine tomato annexins were structurally different from their animal counterparts, but highly conserved annexin domains were still found in most of them. Cis-regulatory element prediction showed that there were important elements in the 2kb upstream promoter regions, including stress- and hormone-responsive-related elements. The expression patterns of these genes were investigated, and the results revealed that they were regulated under developmental processes and environmental stimuli. Among them, AnnSl1.1 and AnnSl2 were highly expressed in most of the tested organs. Genes preferentially or specifically expressed in organs, such as stigma or ovary (AnnSl6), stamen (AnnSl8), and fruit pericarp (AnnSl1.2 and AnnSl9), were identified. Some annexin genes were induced by plant hormones including abscisic acid (AnnSl3, AnnSl6, AnnSl8, and AnnSl9) and gibberellic acid (AnnSl1.1, AnnSl1.2, AnnSl4, and AnnSl7). Most of these annexin genes were induced by salt, drought, wounding, and heat or cold stresses. The present study provides significant information for understanding the diverse roles of annexins in tomato growth and development. 相似文献

The annexins are a family of highly homologous Ca(2+) and phospholipid binding proteins. The expressive amounts of several annexins have been shown to alter in certain pathological states such as brain ischemia and Alzheimer's disease. It has been demonstrated that ethanol induces cytotoxicity, which results in brain damage. In this study, we examined the relationship between ethanol-induced cytotoxicity and the intrinsic amount of annexins using cell lines (rat glioma C6 cells and human adenocarcinoma A549 cells). A decrease in the mitochondrial enzyme (dehydrogenase) activity, which is widely used to measure cytotoxicity, was observed with a high concentration of ethanol (200 mM or more) after a 24-h exposure in both C6 and A549 cells. Western blot analysis revealed that the amount of annexin IV was augmented in both cells by ethanol, whereas levels of annexins I and V were unchanged. The amount of annexin IV was augmented with increasing concentration of ethanol. The overexpression of annexin IV in C6 cells by transfection with annexin IV-DNA enhanced ethanol-induced cell lesion and was accompanied by NFkappaB activation. Thus, it might be indicated that the amount of annexin IV is selectively augmented and this augmentation facilitates the development of cell lesion by ethanol. 相似文献

Novel human and mouse annexin A10 are linked to the genome duplications during early chordate evolution. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

We have identified and characterized a 12th subfamily of vertebrate annexins by systematic analysis of the primary structure, chromosomal mapping, and molecular evolution of unique cDNA and protein sequences from human and mouse. Distinctive features included rare expression, a codon deletion in conserved repeat 3, and an unusual ablation of the type II calcium-binding sites in tetrad core repeats 1, 3, and 4. The paralogy of novel annexin A10 (following revised nomenclature) was confirmed by FISH-mapping human ANXA10 to chromosome 4q33 and genetic linkage mapping mouse Anxa10 to midchromosome 8. Phylogenetic analysis established that the 5' and 3' halves of the annexin A6 octad are more closely related to annexins A5 and A10, respectively, than they are to each other. Molecular date estimates, paralogy linkage maps between human chromosomes 4 and 5, and annexin structural considerations led to the proposal that annexins A5 and A10 may have been the direct progenitors of annexin A6 octad formation via chromosomal duplication during the genome expansion in early chordates. 相似文献

Molecular systematic analysis of the annexin gene superfamily characterized the evolutionary origin, frequency and range of structural variation in calcium interaction domains that are considered intrinsic for membrane targeting and ion channel function. Approximately 36% of annexin repeat domains in an estimated 100 distinct subfamilies contained amino acid changes consistent with the functional loss of type two calcium-binding sites. At least 11% of annexin domains contained a novel K/H/RGD motif conserved in particular subfamilies and manifest in all phyla, apparently via convergent evolution. The first yeast annexin from Yarrowia lipolytica was classified in the ANXC1 subfamily with fungal and mycetozoan representatives. This clade had intact calcium-binding sites but disruption of the normally well-conserved, mid-repeat 4 region implicated in calcium channel regulation. Conversely, a tandem pair of novel annexins from the amphioxus Branchiostoma floridae resembled annexin A13 in gene structure and conserved the charged amino acids associated with the internal hydrophilic pore, but were devoid of external type 2 calcium-binding sites and incorporated K/RGD motifs instead, like annexin A9. The selective erosion of calcium-binding sites in annexin domains and the occurrence of alternate ligands in the same exposed, interhelical loops are pervasive features of the superfamily. This suggests greater complexity than previously appreciated in the mechanisms controlling annexin membrane interaction and calcium channel operation. 相似文献

The annexins are a widespread family of calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins. No common function has been identified for the family and, until recently, no crystallographic data existed for an annexin. In this paper we draw together 22 available annexin sequences consisting of 88 similar repeat units, and apply the techniques of multiple sequence alignment, pattern matching, secondary structure prediction and conservation analysis to the characterisation of the molecules. The analysis clearly shows that the repeats cluster into four distinct families and that greatest variation occurs within the repeat 3 units. Multiple alignment of the 88 repeats shows amino acids with conserved physicochemical properties at 22 positions, with only Gly at position 23 being absolutely conserved in all repeats. Secondary structure prediction techniques identify five conserved helices in each repeat unit and patterns of conserved hydrophobic amino acids are consistent with one face of a helix packing against the protein core in predicted helices a, c, d, e. Helix b is generally hydrophobic in all repeats, but contains a striking pattern of repeat-specific residue conservation at position 31, with Arg in repeats 4 and Glu in repeats 2, but unconserved amino acids in repeats 1 and 3. This suggests repeats 2 and 4 may interact via a buried saltbridge. The loop between predicted helices a and b of repeat 3 shows features distinct from the equivalent loop in repeats 1, 2 and 4, suggesting an important structural and/or functional role for this region. No compelling evidence emerges from this study for uteroglobin and the annexins sharing similar tertiary structures, or for uteroglobin representing a derivative of a primordial one-repeat structure that underwent duplication to give the present day annexins. The analyses performed in this paper are re-evaluated in the Appendix, in the light of the recently published X-ray structure for human annexin V. The structure confirms most of the predictions and shows the power of techniques for the determination of tertiary structural information from the amino acid sequences of an aligned protein family. 相似文献
