The phototrophic green sulphur bacterium Chlorobium vibrioforme f. thiosulfatophilum assimilated ammonia via glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase when grown with ammonia up to 30 mM, but above this level glutamate dehydrogenase was the key enzyme. Glutamine synthetase purified 42-fold was found to be adenylylated. The -glutamyltransferase activity of the enzyme was markedly inhibited by alanine, glycine, serine and lysine, and these amino acids in various combinations showed cumulative inhibition. Adenine nucleotides also inhibited enzyme activity, especially ATP. Glutamate synthase purified 222-fold had a maximum absorption at 440 nm which was reduced by sodium dithionite, and the enzyme was inhibited by atebrin indicating the presence of a flavin component. The enzyme had specific requirements for NADH, -ketoglutarate and l-glutamine, the K
m values for these were 13.5, 270 and 769 M respectively. Glutamate synthase was sensitive to feedback inhibition by amino acids, adenine nucleotides and other metabolites and the combined effects of these inhibitors was cumulative.Abbreviations GS

Carnosine, a alanylLhistidine dipeptide with antioxidant properties is present at high concentrations in skeletal muscle tissue. In this study, we report on the antioxidant activity of carnosine on muscle lipid and protein stability from both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Carnosine inhibited lipid peroxidation and oxidative modification of protein in muscle tissue prepared from rat hind limb homogenates exposed to in vitro Fenton reactant (Fe2+, H2O2)generated free radicals. The minimum effective concentrations of carnosine for lipid and protein oxidation were 2.5 and 1 mM, respectively. Histidine and alanine, active components of carnosine, showed no individual effect towards inhibiting either lipid or protein oxidation. Skeletal muscle of rats fed a histidine supplemented diet for 13 days exhibited a marked increase in carnosine content with a concomitant reduction in muscle lipid peroxidation and protein carbonyl content in skeletal muscle caused by subjecting rats to a Fenitrilotriacetate administration treatment. This significant in vitro result confirms the in vivo antioxidant activity of carnosine for both lipid and protein constituents of muscle under physiological conditions. 相似文献

Role of ubiquitin‐proteasome‐dependent proteolytic process in degradation of muscle protein from diabetic rabbits 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The activity of ATP, ubiquitin (Ub)dependent proteases partially purified from skeletal muscle (psoas) from alloxan diabetic rabbits was determined at different periods of insulin deficiency. Two days after alloxan injection, no change was observed in the activity of ATP, Ubdependent proteases, but this activity increased 3 and 5 days after diabetes induction, attaining 181% of control values on the 5th day. However, after this early rise, the activity of muscle ATP, Ubdependent proteases decreased, returning to values that did not differ significantly from controls 7 and 10 days after alloxan injection. After 15 days, the activity of these proteases was 57% lower than in muscle from control rabbits. Both the initial increase and the subsequent fall in the activity of the enzymes were prevented by insulin treatment of alloxan diabetic rabbits. The data suggest that Ubproteasomedependent proteolysis have an important role in the control of muscle protein degradation and may be regulated by insulin. 相似文献

Summary cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity was purified from the 180 000 × g supernatant of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by ammonium sulphate precipitation and phosphocellulose chromatography. The cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase eluted from the phosphocellulose at 0.54 m NaCl (peak A) separate from the major phosvitin kinase eluting at 0.68 m NaCl (peak B). The kinase activity of both peaks tended to form aggregates, but in the presence of 0.6 m NaCl, the peak B enzyme had Mr 250 000, 7.2S and the peak A enzyme Mr 38 000, 3.8S. The ratio between synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity in peak A was 1:3.2 and in peak B 1:31.4. In addition the kinase activities differed with respect to sensitivity to temperature, ionic strength and CaCl2. It is suggested that the peak A enzyme represents the cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase of leukocytes, whereas the peak B enzyme is a phosvitin kinase, which is insignificantly contaminated with some synthase kinase (peak A) and contains a separate, second synthase kinase.Synthase kinase had K

The activities and kinetics of the enzymes G6PDH (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) and 6PGDH (6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase) from the mesophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6307 and the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6716 are studied in relation to temperature. In Synechococcus 6307 the apparent K
m's are for G6PDH: 80M (substrate) and 20M (NADP+); for 6PGDH: 90M (substrate) and 25M (NADP+). In Synechococcus 6716 the apparent K
m's are for G6PDH: 550M (substrate) and 30M (NADP+); for 6PGDH: 40M (substrate) and 10M (NADP+). None of the K
m's is influenced by the growth temperature and only the K
m's of G6PDH for G6P are influenced by the assay temperature in both organisms. The idea that, in general, thermophilic enzymes possess a lower affinity for their substrates and co-enzymes than mesophilic enzymes is challenged.Although ATP, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate, NADPH and pH can all influence the activities of G6PDH and 6PGDH to a certain extent (without any difference between the mesophilic and the thermophilic strain), they cannot be responsible for the total deactivation of the enzyme activities observed in the light, thus blocking the pentose phosphate pathway.Abbreviations G6PDH

We have studied the changes in the activities of both nitrogenase (switch off) and glutamine synthetase in Rhodospirillum rubrum upon addition of ammonium ions or glutamine to nitrogen fixing cultures. Both activities decrease drastically and return in a parallel manner when added ammonia is metabolized. The decrease in glutamine synthetase activity does not seem to be primarily due to adenylylation of the enzyme. Addition of glutamine to cells starved for nitrogen results in inactivation of glutamine synthetase but nitrogenase is only partially switched off.Abbreviations CeMe3NBr

Summary Three Japanese glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) variants were investigated. G6PD Mediterranean-like had markedly decreased activity, normal electrophoretic mobility, low Km G6P, low Km NADP, increased utilization of all three substrate analogues (2-deoxy-G6P, Gal-6P, and deamino-NADP) and slightly decreased heat stability and slightly biphasic pH curve. G6PD Ogori had markedly decreased activity, but otherwise normal characteristics. G6PD Hofu had moderately decreased activity, normal electrophoretic mobility, slightly reduced Km G6P, normal Km NADP, normal utilization of 2-deoxy-G6P and Gal-6P, but increased utilization of deamino-NADP and normal heat stability as well as normal pH curve. 相似文献

Summary Two specific -N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases involved in the branching and elongation of mucin oligosaccharide chains, namely, a 1,6 N-acetylglucosaminylsaminyltransferase that transfers N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to Gal3GalNAc-Mucin to yield Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc-Mucin and a 3-N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase that transfers N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to Gal3(GlcNAC6)GalNAc-mucin to yield GlcNAc3Gal3 (GlcNAc6)GalNAc-Mucin were purified from the microsomal fraction of swine trachea epithelium. The 1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase was purified about 21,800-fold by procedures which included affinity chromatography on DEAE columns containing bound asialo Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein with Gal1,3GalNAc side chains. The apparent molecular weight estimated by gel filtration was found to be about 60 Kd. The purified enzyme showed a high specificity for Gal1,3GalNAc chains and the most active substrates were mucin glycoproteins containing these chains. The apparent Km of the 6-glucosaminyltrans-ferase for Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing Gal1,3GalNAc chains was 0.53 µM; for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, 12 µM; and for Gal 1,3GalNAc NO2ø, 4 mM. The activity of the 6-glucosaminyltransferase was dependent on the extent of glycosylation of the Gal3GalNAc chains in Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein.The best substrate for the partially purified 3-Glucosaminyltransferase was Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein containing Gal1,3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc side chains. This enzyme showed little or no activity with intact sialylated Cowper's gland mucin glycoprotein or derivatives of this glycoprotein containing GalNAc or Gal1,3GalNAc side chains.The radioactive oligosaccharides formed by these enzymes in large scale reaction mixtures were released from the mucin glycoproteins by treatment with alkaline borohydride, isolated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-6 and characterized by methylation analysis and sequential digestion with exoglycosidases. The oligosaccharide products formed by the 6- and 3-glucosaminyltransferases were shown to be Gal3(GlcNAC6) GalNAc and GlcNAc3 Gal3(GlcNAC6)GalNAc respectively.Taken collectively, these results demonstrate that swine trachea epithelium contains two specific N-acetylglucosaminyltransferases which catalyze the initial branching and elongation reactions involved in the synthesis of O-linked oligosaccharide chains in respiratory mucin glycoproteins. The first enzyme a 6-glucosaminyltransferase converts Gal3GalNAc chains in mucin glycoproteins to Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains. This product is the substrate for a second 3-glucosaminyltransferase which converts the Gal3(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains to GlcNAc3Gal(GlcNAc6)GalNAc chains in the glycoprotein. The 3-glucosaminyltransferase did not utilize Gal3GalNAc chains as a substrate and this results in an ordered sequence of addition of N-acetylglucosamine residues to growing oligosaccharide chains in tracheal mucin glycoproteins.Abbreviations NeuNAc

Sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation and partitioning in a polyethylene glycol/dextran two-phase system were used to isolate plasmamembrane vesicles from microsomal preparations of soybean cell suspension cultures. Both methods resulted in the enrichment of the activity of a 1,3--glucan synthase which forms a polymer consisting of more than 99% of 1,3-linked glucose (callose). Digitonin increases the 1,3--glucan synthase activity in the various membrane fractions to a different degree, supporting the suggestion that this enzyme is vectorially arranged in the plasma membrane. The enzyme is greatly activated either by poly-l-ornithine or synergistically by Ca2+ and spermine, indicating that the same enzyme is affected and exhibits the regulatory properties necessary for callose synthesis.Abbreviations GSI

The theoretical properties of synapses such as those in the retina which operate on graded potentials are developed using work on tetrodotoxin-treated synapses as a basis. A linearized model of a two-synapse negative feedback loop analogous to the bipolaramacrine feedback loop in the retina possesses a frequency response which developes an increasingly prominent resonance peak at higher input levels and under some circumstances shows instability. Psychophysical studies have shown that the visual system also exhibits this behaviour suggestive of progressive underdamping in a harmonic oscillator. Evidence in favor of the hypothesis that resonance originates in the loop is presented, the conclusions being that the loop functions to tune the retina to a range of temporal frequencies.Symbol Table

Tanacetan TVF was found to have a branched structure with a backbone of linear -1,4-D-galacturonan. The ramified regions consist of linear -1,2-L-rhamno--1,4-D-galacturonan as the core. The side chains appear to attach to the 4-position of the L-rhamnopyranose residues. They are present as single -galactopyranose residues or a branching -1,4-galactopyranan bearing 4,6-substituted -D-galactopyranose residues as branched points. In addition, the ramified regions contain side chains of a branched -1,5-arabinofuranan possessing 2,5- and 3,5-substituted -L-arabinofuranose residues as branching points. Some side chains of rhamnogalacturonan appear to be arabinogalactan which contains branched sugar chains of -1,5-arabinofuranan attached to the linear chains of -1,4-galactopyranan by 1,3- and 1,6-linkages. The residues of -L-arabinofuranose seem to occupy the terminal positions of the arabinogalactan side chains. 相似文献

Lipoxygenase is an abundant protein in cucumber exudates 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The presence of lipoxygenase (LOX) has been reported in many plant organs. High LOX activity (1–2 katal/mg protein) was detected in exudates from cut cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) stems and petioles. Exudate LOX had a pH optimum of 5.0, an estimated molecular weight of 95 kDa and cross-reacted on sodium-dodecyl-sulfate gels with anti-LOX antibodies raised against soybean leaf LOX isoenzymes. Lipoxygenase activity was detected on native gels stained with o-dianisidine using linoleic acid as a substrate. Enzyme activity was similar with linoleic and linolenic acid and 2 times greater with arachidonic acid as substrate. At pH 6.8, LOX metabolized linoleic acid into 13- and 9-hydroperoxides at a ratio of 12. Linolenic acid was preferentially oxidized at carbon 13. Lipoxygenase activity was inhibited by n-propyl gallate (IC50 300 nM) and nordihydroguaiaretic acid (IC50 25 nM), but not by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. LOX activity was enhanced 4.5-fold by 300 mM Ca2+. Spermine at 1 mM, and putrescine and spermidine at 2 mM completely inhibited LOX activity, but at low concentrations spermine (100 mM) and spermidine (100–500 mM) significantly stimulated LOX activity: 8- and 4.5-fold, respectively. Tissue printing of stem, petiole and hypocotyl sections with subsequent incubation with the antiserum raised against soybean leaf LOX revealed the presence of LOX in the internal and external phloem and in the sieve tubes.Abbreviations DTT

In the murine IgH gene intronic enhancer (ENHiH), two major functional domains were reported. One is the E4/octomer region and another includes the A and B motifs. In the human ENHiH, it was reported that the HE2, which corresponds to the murine B, and E6 motifs play an important role in an enhancer activity and a tissue-specificity at cellular level. Here we examined thein vivo function of the E6, A and HE2 motifs within the human ENHiH by using the transgenic mice technique. The A and HE2 motifs together revealed almost the same enhancer function as the whole human ENHiH, but the E6 motif had lesser enhancer acitivty and tissue-specificity. 相似文献

In vivo effects of insulin and vanadium treatment on glycogen synthase (GS), glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) and protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) activity were determined in Wistar rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. The skeletal muscle was freeze-clamped before or following an insulin injection (5 U/kg i.v.). Diabetes, vanadium, and insulin in vivo treatment did not affect muscle GSK-3 activity as compared to controls. Following insulin stimulation in 4-week STZ-diabetic rats muscle GS fractional activity (GSFA) was increased 3 fold (p < 0.05), while in 7-week diabetic rats it remained unchanged, suggesting development of insulin resistance in longer term diabetes. Muscle PP1 activity was increased in diabetic rats and returned to normal after vanadium treatment, while muscle GSFA remained unchanged. Therefore, it is possible that PP1 is involved in the regulation of some other cellular events of vanadium (other than regulation of glycogen synthesis). The lack of effect of vanadium treatment in stimulating glycogen synthesis in skeletal muscle suggests the involvement of other metabolic pathways in the observed glucoregulatory effect of vanadium. 相似文献

A method for long-term plant regeneration of Phaseolus coccineus L, is described. Shoot-tips and cotyledonary nodes cultured on a Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with N6-benzylaminopurine, 10 M, and -naphthaleneacetic acid, 1M, formed multiple bud-shoots. These shoots were transferred to medium containing BAP 1 M, NAA 0.1 M, and gibberellic acid 3 M to promote shoot growth and further shoot multiplication. Rooting was achieved in medium with 11 M indole-3-acetic acid. Rooted plants grew to maturity and were fertile. Cultures have maintained their ability to regenerate plants for more than two years. A sample of 30 regenerated plants (R0) was tested for chromosome number, all of them being diploid; seven isozymatic systems were electrophpretically analyzed in 82 R0 regenerated plants. No differences were observed in their electrophoretic patterns in comparison with those shown by seedlings. Histological studies revealed the origin of buds from calluses via organogenesis.Abbreviations BAP

The basic structures of the catalytic portion (F1, 33) of ATP synthase are the 33 hexamer (oligomer with cooperativity) and 11 heterodimer (protomer). These were reconstituted from the and subunits of thermophilic F1 (TF1), and the 33 hexamer was crystallized. On electrophoresis, both the dimer and hexamer showed bands with ATPase activity. Using the dimer and hexamer, we studied the nucleotide-dependent rapid molecular dynamics. The formation of the hexamer required neither nucleotide nor Mg. The hexamer was dissociated into the dimer in the presence of MgADP, while the dimer was associated into the hexamer in the presence of MgATP. The hexamer, like mitochondrial F1 and TF1, showed two kinds of ATPase activity: one was cooperative and was inhibited by only one BzADP per hexamer, and the other was inhibited by three BzADP per hexamer. 相似文献

Summary We examined the transition from ectothermy to endothermy in nestling bank swallows (Riparia riparia) by measuring the peak metabolic response to cold (PMR) in groups of nestlings. Additionally aerobic capacity, as assessed by citrate synthase activity (CS), and contractile function, as assessed by myofibrillar ATPase activity (mATPase) were measured in the pectoralis and mixed leg muscles during development. During the first 65% of their growth (from 2–12 g) bank swallows do not increase their metabolic rate in response to cold (Fig. 1). Between 12 and 16 g the PMR increased from 4 to more than 10 ml O2 (g·h)–1. Citrate synthase activity increased throughout development, starting at 20 moles (min·g fresh mass)–1 in both tissues and increasing to 150 and 50 moles (min·g)–1 in the pectoralis and leg muscles, respectively (Fig. 5). The augmented aerobic capacity combined with large increases in muscle mass undoubtedly contributes to the improved thermoregulatory abilities of older nestlings. However, muscle mass and aerobic capacity increase continuously and do not show the sharp transition noted in PMR. In the leg muscle mATPase activity is constant throughout growth, but in the pectoralis muscle it undergoes an abrupt increase from 0.5 moles (min·mg myofibrillar protein)–1 in animals weighing less than 12 g to 0.9 moles (min·mg)–1 in nestlings weighing more than 15 g (Fig. 6). The similar pattern of development of PMR and mATPase suggests a critical role for muscle development in the transition to endothermy in this species.Abbreviations

This review will focus on the recent advance in the study of effect of transmembrane Ca2+ gradient on the function of membrane proteins. It consits of two parts: 1. Transmembrane Ca2+ gradient and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase; 2. Effect of transmembrane Ca2+ gradient on the components and coupling of cAMP signal transduction pathway. The results obtained indicate that a proper transmembrane Ca2+ gradient may play an important role in modulating the conformation and activity of SR Ca2+-ATPase and the function of membrane proteins involved in the cAMP signal transduction by mediating the physical state change of the membrane phospholipids.Abbreviations Cai
