A highly purified isoenzyme of apyrase obtained from potatoes (Solanum tuberosum var. Pimpernel) exhibits a low specificity for the organic moiety of synthetic pyro- and triphosphates. Methyl di- and tri-phosphates were hydrolysed at higher rates than ADP and ATP, but their Km values were also higher. Steric hindrance at the carbon atom linked to the pyrophosphate chain decreases both binding and maximum rate, whereas length or polarity of the organic chain do not have systematic effects. t-Butyl diphosphate, inorganic pyrophosphate, adenosine 5'-[alpha,beta-methylene]triphosphate and adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-methylene]triphosphate are competitive inhibitors of the hydrolysis of ATP and ADP.  相似文献

The biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine in rat liver microsomal preparations catalysed by CDP-choline-1,2-diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) was inhibited by a combination of ATP and CoA or ATP and pantetheine. ATP alone at high concentrations (20 mM) inhibits phosphatidylcholine formation to the extent of 70%. In the presence of 0.1 mM-CoA, ATP (2 mM) inhibits to the extent of 80% and in the presence of 1 mM-pantetheine to the extent of 90%. ADP and other nucleotide triphosphates in combination with either CoA or pantetheine are only 10-30% as effective in inhibiting phosphatidylcholine synthesis. AMP(CH2)PP [adenosine 5'-(alphabeta-methylene)triphosphate] together with CoA inhibits to the extent of 59% and with pantetheine by 48%. AMP-P(CH2)P [adenosine 5'-(betagamma-methylene)triphosphate] together with either CoA or pantetheine had no significant effect on phosphatidylcholine formation. Other closely related derivatives of pantothenic acid were without effect either alone or in the presence of ATP, as were thiol compounds such as cysteine, homocysteine, cysteamine, dithiothreitol and glutathione. Several mechanisms by which this inhibition might take place were ruled out and it is concluded that ATP together with either CoA or pantetheine interacts reversibly with phosphatidylcholine synthetase to cause temporarily the inhibition of phosphatidylcholine formation.  相似文献

In the presence of a molar excess of eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase II and an appropriate concentration of dextran sulfate, relaxed closed circular DNA is converted to a negatively supercoiled form. The reaction is dependent on ATP. Neither adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]-triphosphate nor adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate can substitute for ATP. The negative supercoils formed are relaxed by subsequent addition of DNA topoisomerase I to the supercoiling reaction mixture. Covalent closure of a nicked circular DNA in the presence of DNA topoisomerase II and dextran sulfate but in the absence of ATP causes a small decrease in the linking number. These results suggest that when an appropriate concentration of dextran sulfate is present, the binding of a molar excess of eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase II constrains a small number of negative supercoils in DNA, which in turn generate unconstrained negative supercoils at the expense of ATP.  相似文献

NADPH-oxidase-catalyzed superoxide (O2-) formation in membranes of HL-60 leukemic cells was activated by arachidonic acid in the presence of Mg2+ and HL-60 cytosol. The GTP analogues, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S] and guanosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate, being potent activators of guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins), stimulated O2- formation up to 3.5-fold. The adenine analogue of GTP[gamma S], adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[gamma S]), which can serve as donor of thiophosphoryl groups in kinase-mediated reactions, stimulated O2- formation up to 2.5-fold, whereas the non-phosphorylating adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate was inactive. The effect of ATP[gamma S] was half-maximal at a concentration of 2 microM, was observed in the absence of added GDP and occurred with a lag period two times longer than the one with GTP[gamma S]. HL-60 membranes exhibited nucleoside-diphosphate kinase activity, catalyzing the thiophosphorylation of GDP to GTP[gamma S] by ATP[gamma S]. GTP[gamma S] formation was half-maximal at a concentration of 3-4 microM ATP[gamma S] and was suppressed by removal of GDP by creatine kinase/creatine phosphate (CK/CP). The stimulatory effect of ATP[gamma S] on O2- formation was abolished by the nucleoside-diphosphate kinase inhibitor UDP. Mg2+ chelation with EDTA and removal of endogenous GDP by CK/CP abolished NADPH oxidase activation by ATP[gamma S] and considerably diminished stimulation by GTP[gamma S]. GTP[gamma S] also served as a thiophosphoryl group donor to GDP, with an even higher efficiency than ATP[gamma S]. Transthiophosphorylation of GDP to GTP[gamma S] was only partially inhibited by CK/CP. Our results suggest that NADPH oxidase is regulated by a G protein, which may be activated either by exchange of bound GDP by guanosine triphosphate or by thiophosphoryl group transfer to endogenous GDP by nucleoside-diphosphate kinase.  相似文献

The regulation of Cl- conductance by cytoplasmic nucleotides was investigated in pancreatic and parotid zymogen granules. Cl- conductance was assayed by measuring the rate of cation-ionophore-induced osmotic lysis of granules suspended in iso-osmotic salt solutions. Both inhibition and stimulation were observed, depending on the type and concentration of nucleotide. Under optimal conditions, the average inhibition measured in different preparations was 1.6-fold, whereas the average stimulation was 4.4-fold. ATP was inhibitory at 1-10 microM but stimulated Cl- conductance above 50 microM. Stimulation by ATP was more pronounced in granules with low endogenous Cl- conductance. The potency of nucleotides in terms of inhibition was ATP greater than adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[S]) greater than UTP much greater than or equal to CTP much greater than or equal to GTP much greater than or equal to guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) much greater than or equal to ITP. The potency with respect to stimulation had the following order: adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate (App[CH2]p) greater than ATP greater than guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]). Adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (App[NH]p) was also stimulatory, and was more potent than ATP in the parotid granules, but less potent in the pancreatic granules. Aluminium fluoride stimulated Cl- conductance maximally at 15-30 microM-Al3+ and 10-15 mM-F. F was less effective at higher concentrations. Protein phosphorylation by kinases was apparently not involved, since the nucleotide effects (1) could be mimicked by non-hydrolysable analogues of ATP and GTP, (2) showed reversibility, and (3) were not abolished by the protein kinase inhibitors 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) or staurosporine. The data suggest the presence of at least two binding sites for nucleotides, whereby occupancy of one induces inhibition and occupancy of the other induces stimulation.  相似文献

Fractions containing a high molecular weight form (Mr approximately equal to 2 X 10(6] of the activity that replicates in vitro both the 2-micron yeast DNA plasmid and the chromosomal autonomously replicating sequence ars 1 can be prepared from cells of the budding yeast Saccharomyces. Protein complexes from the fractions associate in vitro with the replication origins of these DNA elements, as determined by electron microscopy. In the present study, the high molecular weight replicative fraction has been characterized in further detail. The DNA synthetic activity in the high molecular weight fraction was bound to the DNA and could be isolated with it. This binding of the replicating activity to the DNA was greatly reduced in the absence of the 2-micron origins of replication. Association of the protein complexes with DNA depended on the amount of replicating activity added, was sensitive to 0.2 M KCl, and exhibited a requirement for rATP and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates. It was not blocked, however, by the DNA polymerase inhibitor aphidicolin or by the RNA polymerase inhibitor alpha-amanitin. The lack of inhibition by aphidicolin suggests that the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates may function as cofactors in the binding of protein complexes to DNA or as substrates for a polymerizing activity such as a primase. Binding of the protein complexes as well as actual DNA replication were heat sensitive in the high molecular weight fraction prepared from the temperature-sensitive mutant of the cell division cycle cdc 8. This suggests that the cdc 8 gene product is present in a replicative protein complex and strengthens the conclusion that the presence of the protein complexes on the DNA is associated with replication. Using independent enzyme assays, several other possible replication proteins (including DNA polymerase I, DNA ligase, DNA primase, and DNA topoisomerase II) have been identified directly in the high molecular weight replicative fraction. All of these results provide support for the idea that a protein complex (or replisome ) is involved in the replication of both the extrachromosomal 2-micron DNA and chromosomal DNA in yeast.  相似文献

Escherichia coli RecF protein binds, but does not hydrolyze, ATP. To determine the role that ATP binding to RecF plays in RecF protein-mediated DNA binding, we have determined the interaction between RecF protein and single-stranded (ss)DNA, double-stranded (ds)DNA, and dsDNA containing ssDNA regions (gapped [g]DNA) either alone or in various combinations both in the presence and in the absence of adenosine (gamma-thio) triphosphate, gamma-S-ATP, a nonhydrolyzable ATP analog. Protein-DNA complexes were analyzed by electrophoresis on agarose gels and visualized by autoradiography. The type of protein-DNA complexes formed in the presence of gamma-S-ATP was different with each of the DNA substrates and from those formed in the absence of gamma-S-ATP. Competition experiments with various combinations of DNA substrates indicated that RecF protein preferentially bound gDNA in the presence of gamma-S-ATP, and the order of preference of binding was gDNA > dsDNA > ssDNA. Since gDNA has both ds- and ssDNA components, we suggest that the role for ATP in RecF protein-DNA interactions in vivo is to confer specificity of binding to dsDNA-ssDNA junctions, which is necessary for catalyzing DNA repair and recombination.  相似文献

The activation of L-phenylalanine by yeast phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase using adenosine 5'-[(S)-alpha-17O,alpha,alpha-18O2]triphosphate is shown to proceed with inversion of configuration at P alpha of ATP. This observation taken together with the lack of positional isotope exchange when adenosine 5'-[beta,beta-18O2]triphosphate is incubated with the enzyme in the absence of phenylalanine and in the presence of the competitive inhibitor phenylalaninol indicates that activation of phenylalanine occurs by a direct "in-line" adenylyl-transfer reaction. In the presence of Zn2+, yeast phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase also catalyzes the phenylalanine-dependent hydrolysis of ATP to AMP and the synthesis of P1,P4-bis(5'-adenosyl) tetraphosphate (Ap4A). With adenosine 5'-[(S)-alpha-17O,alpha,alpha-18O2]triphosphate, the formation of AMP and Ap4A is shown to occur with inversion and retention of configuration, respectively. It is concluded that phenylalanyl adenylate is an intermediate in both processes, Zn2+ promoting AMP formation by hydrolytic cleavage of the C-O bond and Ap4A formation by displacement at phosphorus of phenylalanine by ATP.  相似文献

The complex formed between the dnaB and dnaC replication proteins of Escherichia coli is stabilized by ATP binding to dnaC. The dnaB6-dnaC6-ATP6 complex can be maintained without ATP hydrolysis at a concentration as low as 5 x 10(-10) M. The complex is also formed with adenosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate but generates little or no dnaB activity, suggesting a requirement for ATP hydrolysis in the subsequent stage of binding of the complex to DNA. In this step, dnaC is released, leaving dnaB to function on the associated DNA.  相似文献

Binding of the poorly hydrolyzable GTP analog, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), to purified guanine-nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) has been shown to be nonreversible in the presence of millimolar concentrations of Mg2+. In porcine atrial membranes, binding of [35S]GTP[S] to G proteins was stable in the presence of 1 mM Mg2+. However, either large dilution or, even more strongly, addition of unlabelled guanine nucleotides, in the potency order, GTP[S] greater than GTP greater than or equal to guanosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imino]triphosphate greater than GDP greater than or equal to guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate greater than GMP, markedly enhanced the observed dissociation, with 20-30% of bound [35S]GTP[S] being released by unlabelled guanine nucleotide within 20 min at 25 degrees C. Most interestingly, dissociation of [35S]GTP[S] was rapidly and markedly stimulated by agonist (carbachol) activation of cardiac muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Carbachol-stimulated release of [35S]GTP[S] was strictly dependent on the presence of Mg2+ and an unlabelled guanine nucleotide. Although having different potency and efficiency in releasing [35S]GTP[S] from the membranes by themselves, the guanine nucleoside triphosphates and diphosphates studied, at maximally effective concentrations, promoted the carbachol-induced dissociation to the same extent, while GMP and ATP were ineffective. GTP[S]-binding-saturation experiments indicated that one agonist-activated muscarinic acetylcholine receptor can cause release of bound GTP[S] from three to four G proteins. The data presented indicate that binding of GTP[S] to G proteins in intact membranes, in contrast to purified G proteins, is reversible, and that agonist-activated receptors can even, either directly or indirectly, interact with GTP[S]-bound G proteins, resulting in release of bound guanine nucleoside triphosphate.  相似文献

Extracellular ATP has vasodilatory and inotropic effects in the heart. We have demonstrated that extracellular ATP, in a concentration-dependent manner (10 nM-0.1 mM), increased [Ca2+]i in suspensions of isolated fura-2-loaded rat cardiac ventricular myocytes (maximum 96 +/- 10% increase over basal levels, SEM, n = 12, P less than 0.01). The increase in [Ca2+]i was often biphasic, with an initial fast phase (less than 1 s) of low amplitude, followed by a slower phase of higher amplitude. A second application of ATP had little effect, and ATP abolished the effect of subsequent electrical stimulations, even through the cells were still able to respond with an increase in [Ca2+]i to KCl-induced depolarization or stimulation by caffeine. Pretreatment of cells with nifedipine, verapamil, caffeine, ryanodine, or 8-(N,N-diethylamino)octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride attenuated the effect of extracellular ATP on [Ca2+]i, and binding of extracellular free calcium by excess EGTA completely abolished the effects of extracellular ATP and electrical stimulation. Extracellular ATP increased bisoxonol fluorescence in ventricular myocytes, indicating depolarization of the sarcolemma. Pretreatment of the myocytes with tetrodotoxin (50 microM), or replacement of NaCl in the incubation buffer with the impermeant cation N-methyl-D-glucamine, suppressed the extracellular ATP effect on [Ca2+]i. ADP and AMP had smaller effects on [Ca2+]i than ATP; adenosine had no effect. ATP analogues showed the following rank order of potency in increasing [Ca2+]i or bisoxonol fluorescence: ATP greater than or equal to 2-methylthioATP much greater than adenosine 5'-O-[3-thio]triphosphate greater than adenosine 5'-[alpha, beta-methylene]triphosphate approximately adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate approximately adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imino]triphosphate greater than adenosine. These data are consistent with the presence of purinoceptors (P2Y subtype) on the sarcolemma of cardiac ventricular myocytes of the rat, which upon activation lead to depolarization and activation of cation channels of the sarcolemma and flux of extracellular Ca2+ into the cells. This may result in further flux of Ca2+ into the cytosol from intracellular stores. The effects of extracellular ATP on [Ca2+]i in rat cardiac ventricular myocytes may, in part, explain the direct inotropic effects of extracellular ATP on the mammalian heart.  相似文献

The relationship between phospholipase A2 and C activation and secretion was investigated in intact human neutrophils and differentiated HL60 cells. Activation by either ATP or fMetLeuPhe leads to [3H]arachidonic acid release into the external medium from prelabelled cells. This response was inhibited when the cells were pretreated with pertussis toxin. When the [3H]arachidonic acid-labelled cells were stimulated with fMetLeuPhe, ATP or Ca2+ ionophore A23187, and the lipids analysed by t.l.c., the increase in free fatty acid was accompanied by decreases in label from phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine. Moreover, incorporation of label into triacylglycerol and to a lesser extent phosphatidylethanolamine was evident. Activation of secretion was evident with ATP and fMetLeuPhe but not with A23187. The pharmacological specificity of the ATP receptor in HL60 cells was investigated by measuring secretion of beta-glucuronidase, formation of inositol phosphatases and release of [3H]arachidonic acid. External addition of ATP, UTP, ITP, adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[S]), adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (App[NH]p), XTP, CTP, GTP, 8-bromo-ATP and guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) to intact HL60 cells stimulated inositol phosphate production, but only the first five nucleotides were effective at stimulating secretion or [3H]arachidonic acid release. In human neutrophils, addition of ATP, ITP, UTP and ATP[S] also stimulated secretion from specific and azurophilic granules, and this was accompanied by increases in cytosolic Ca2+ and in [3H]arachidonic acid release. The addition of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 1 nM) prior to the addition of either fMetLeuPhe or ATP led to inhibition of phospholipase C activity. In contrast, this had no effect on phospholipase A2 activation, whilst secretion was potentiated. Phospholipase A2 activation by either agonist was dependent on an intact cell metabolism, as was secretion. It is concluded that (1) activation of phospholipase C does not always lead to activation of phospholipase A2, (2) phospholipase A2 is coupled to the receptor independently of phospholipase C via a pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-protein and (3) for secretion to take place, the receptor has to activate both phospholipases C and A2.  相似文献

Effect of ATP analogs of DNA synthesis in isolated nuclei   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Optimal synthesis of DNA in Ehrlich ascites cell nuclei is shown to be dependent upon the presence of both ATP and ADP. ATP can be replaced only by dATP. An ATP regenerating system is less effective than ATP alone or ATP in combination with ADP. ATP does not stimulate DNA synthesis primarily by maintenance of deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate levels. When the inhibition of DNA synthesis by high ATP levels is taken into account, the ATP analogs adenosine 5'-(alpha,beta-methylene)triphosphate, adenosine 5'-(beta, gamma-methylene)-triphosphate, and adenosine 5'-(beta, gamma-imino)triphosphate can neither substitute for ATP nor inhibit the ATP stimulation of DNA synthesis. Adenosine 5'-(3-thio)triphosphate, however, is a competitive inhibitor of DNA synthesis.  相似文献

The reasons underlying reported discrepancies in the effects of ATP, ADP, adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate, AMP + PPi, P-chloromercuribenzoate and F- on RNA efflux from isolated rat liver nuclei and on nuclear envelope nucleoside triphosphatase activity were investigated. The stimulatory effect of ADP was attributed to myokinase activity associated with the nuclei; this activity was eluted on repeated washing with nuclear incubation medium. In the absence of Ca2+ and Mn2+, ATP, adenosine 5'[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate and AMP +PPi were found to promote release of both DNA and RNA. In the presence of 0.5 mM-Ca2+ and 9.3 mM-Mn2+, only ATP promoted RNA efflux to a significant extent. In the absence of spermidine, Ca2+ and Mn2+, nuclei released large quantities of DNA and RNA into the medium; this effect was promoted by p-chloromereuribenzoate. In the presence of the three cations, however, p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibited RNA efflux. F- caused a slight leakage of DNA from nuclei. The results are discussed in terms of models for the effects of ATP and analogues on RNA efflux and nuclear stability.  相似文献

The product of the selD gene from Escherichia coli catalyses the formation of an activated selenium compound which is required for the synthesis of Sec-tRNA (Sec, selenocysteine) from Ser-tRNA and for the formation of the unusual nucleoside 5-methylaminomethyl-2-selenouridine in several tRNA species. selD was overexpressed in a T7 promoter/polymerase system and purified to apparent homogeneity. Purified SELD protein is a monomer of 37 kDa in its native state and catalyses a selenium-dependent ATP-cleavage reaction delivering AMP and releasing the beta-phosphate as orthophosphate. The gamma-phosphate group of ATP was not liberated in a form able to form a complex with molybdate. It was precluded that any putative covalent or non-covalent ligand of SELD not removed during purification participated in the reaction. In a double-labelling experiment employing [75Se]selenite plus dithiothreitol and [gamma-32P]ATP the 75Se and 32P radioactivities co-chromatographed on a poly(ethyleneimine)-cellulose column. No radioactivity originating from ATP eluted in this position when [alpha-32P]ATP or [beta-32P]ATP or [14C]ATP were offered as substrates. The results support the speculation that the product of SELD is a phosphoselenoate with the phosphate moiety derived phosphoselenoate from the gamma-phosphate group of ATP. The alpha,beta cleavage of ATP is also supported by the finding that neither adenosine 5'-[alpha,beta-methylene]triphosphate nor adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-methylene]triphosphate served as substrates in the reaction.  相似文献

Isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli catalyzes the activation of [18O2]isoleucine by adenosine 5'-[(R)-alpha-17O]triphosphate with inversion of configuration at phosphorus. Moreover, isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase does not catalyze positional isotope exchange in adenosine 5'-[beta-18O2]triphosphate in the absence of isoleucine or in the presence of the competitive inhibitor isoleucinol, which effectively eliminates the possibility of either adenylyl-enzyme or adenosine metaphosphate intermediates being involved. Together, these observations require that isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase catalyzes the activation of isoleucine by associative "in line" nucleotidyl transfer. The synthesis of adenosine 5'-[(R)-alpha-17O]diphosphate and its conversion to adenosine 5'-[(R)-alpha-17O]triphosphate is described and an explanation provided for the reported differences between the treatment of adenosine 5'-[(S)-alpha-thiodiphosphate] with cyanogen bromide and bromine in [18O]water.  相似文献

The phosphorothioate analog of ATP has a sulfur atom replacing a non-bridging oxygen atom of the triphosphate moiety of ATP. Due to the tetrahedral nature of the phosphorus atom, stereoisomers are known to exist, designated as the Sp and Rp isomers. We have reported [Shimizu & Furusawa (1986) Biochemistry 25, 5787] on the hydrolytic activity of the 22S dynein from Tetrahymena cilia towards the phosphorothioate analogs of ATP. In this paper, we extend our study and report on the microtubule-dynein dissociation by these analogs and on their ability to support sea urchin flagellar dynein enzymatic activity as well as ciliary or flagellar motility. It has been shown that the microtubule--22S-dynein complex is dissociated by the binding of ATP to the dynein enzymatic sites [Porter & Johnson (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 6575]. We studied the dissociation by adenosine 5'-[alpha-thio]triphosphate (ATP[alpha S]), Sp or Rp, by light-scattering stopped-flow methods. The dissociation by (Sp)ATP[alpha S] was rapid and the rate of the light-scattering change by (Sp)ATP[alpha S] was a hyperbolic function of the nucleotide concentration, indicating that dissociation was a two-step process. On the other hand, (Rp)ATP[alpha S] up to 2 mM induced only slow and partial dissociation of the complex, while, in the presence of vanadate, it induced complete dissociation with a slightly higher rate (0.5 s-1). The adenosine 5'-[beta-thio]triphosphate (ATP[beta S]) isomers did not induce dissociation. The hydrolytic activity of the outer arm dynein from sea urchin sperm flagella towards these analogs was similar to that of 22S dynein. The ratios of Vmax (nmol.mg protein-1.min-1)/apparent Km (microM) of this dynein were 400-720, 53, 9.7, 0.62 and 0.028 for ATP, ATP[alpha S] (Sp or Rp), ATP[beta S] (Sp or Rp), respectively, in the presence of Mg2+ as the supporting cation. This dynein exhibited the same stereospecificity at beta phosphate as the 22S dynein or myosin. The detergent models of Tetrahymena or sea urchin spermatozoa were reactivated only by ATP or (Sp)ATP[alpha S] while other analogs were ineffective. The maximal beat frequency of the cilia or flagella reactivated by (Sp)ATP[alpha S] was one-quarter to one-half of that produced by ATP reactivation.  相似文献

A DNA helicase (delta helicase) which partially copurifies with DNA polymerase delta has been highly purified from fetal calf thymus. delta helicase differs in physical and enzymatic properties from other eukaryotic DNA helicases described thus far. The enzyme has an apparent mass of 57 kDa by gel filtration and is associated with polypeptides of 56 and 52 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Photo-cross-linking of the purified enzyme with [alpha-32P]ATP resulted in labeling of a polypeptide of approximately 58 kDa, suggesting that the active site is present on the larger polypeptide. Unwinding of a partial duplex requires a nucleoside triphosphate which can be either ATP or dATP but not a nonhydrolyzable analogue of ATP. Other ribo- and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates have little or no activity as cofactors. delta helicase also has DNA-dependent ATPase activity which has a relatively low Km for ATP (40 microM). delta helicase binds to single-stranded DNA but has little or no affinity for double-stranded DNA or single-stranded RNA. Similar to replicative DNA helicases from prokaryotes and the herpes simplex virus type 1 helicase-primase, delta helicase translocates in the 5'-3' direction along the strand to which it is bound and preferentially unwinds DNA substrates with a forklike structure.  相似文献

In the presence of adenosine 5'-[gamma-32P]triphosphate ([gamma-32P]ATP) and a partially purified human placental insulin receptor preparation, insulin stimulates the phosphorylation of an Mr 94000 protein in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Half-maximal stimulation of 32P incorporation occurs at (2-3) X 10(-9) M insulin, a concentration identical with the Kd for insulin binding in this preparation. Immunoprecipitations with monoclonal anti-insulin receptor antibody demonstrate that the Mr 94000 protein kinase substrate is a component of the insulin receptor, the beta subunit. If the partially purified, soluble placental receptor preparation is immunoprecipitated and then exposed to [gamma-32P]ATP and insulin, phosphorylation of the Mr 94000 protein is maintained. The photoincorporation of 8-azido[alpha-32P]ATP into placental insulin receptor preparations was carried out to identify the ATP binding site responsible for the protein kinase activity. Photoincorporation into numerous proteins was observed, including both subunits of the insulin receptor. However, when photolabeling was performed in the presence of excess adenosine 5'-(beta, gamma-imidotriphosphate), a nonhydrolyzable ATP derivative, the beta subunit of the insulin receptor was the only species protected from label incorporation. These data indicate that the beta subunit of the insulin receptor has insulin-dependent protein kinase activity. Phosphotyrosine formation is the primary result of this activity in placental insulin receptor preparations.  相似文献
