The catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) is susceptible to inactivation by a number of thiol-modifying reagents. Inactivation occurs through modification of cysteine 199, which is located near the active site. Because cysteine 199 is reactive at physiological pH, and modification of this site inhibits activity, we hypothesized that cAPK is a likely target for regulation by an oxidative mechanism, specifically glutathionylation. In vitro studies demonstrated the susceptibility of kinase activity to the sulfhydryl oxidant diamide, which inhibited by promoting an intramolecular disulfide bond between cysteines 199 and 343. In the presence of a low concentration of diamide and reduced glutathione, the kinase was rapidly and reversibly inhibited by glutathionylation. Mutant kinase containing an alanine to cysteine mutation at position 199 was resistant to inhibition by both diamide and glutathionylation, thus implicating this as the oxidation-sensitive site. Mouse fibroblast cells treated with diamide showed a reversible decrease in cAPK activity. Inhibition was dramatically enhanced when cells were first treated with cAPK activators. Using biotin-cysteine as means for detecting and purifying thiolated cAPK from cells, we were able to show that, under conditions in which cAPK is inactivated by diamide, it is also readily thiolated. 相似文献

Using redox proteomics techniques to characterize the thiol status of proteins in human T lymphocytes, we identified cyclophilin A (CypA) as a specifically oxidized protein early after mitogen activation. CypA is an abundantly expressed cytosolic protein, target of the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (CsA), for which a variety of functions has been described. In this study, we could identify CypA as a protein undergoing glutathionylation in vivo. Using MALDI-MS we identified Cys52 and Cys62 as targets of glutathionylation in T lymphocytes, and, using bioinformatic tools, we defined the reasons for the susceptibility of these residues to the modification. In addition, we found by circular dichroism spectroscopy that glutathionylation has an important impact on the secondary structure of CypA. Finally, we suggest that glutathionylation of CypA may have biological implications and that CypA may play a key role in redox regulation of immunity. 相似文献

The main function of reduced glutathione (GSH) is to protect from oxidative stress as a reactive oxygen scavenger. However, in the context of redox regulation, the ratio between GSH and its oxidized form (GSSG) determines the redox state of redox-sensitive cysteines in some proteins and, thus, acts as a signaling system. While GSH/GSSG can catalyze oxido-reduction of intra- and inter-chain disulfides by thiol-disulfide exchange, this review focuses on the formation of mixed disulfides between glutathione and proteins, also known as glutathionylation. The review discusses the regulatory role of this post-translational modification and the role of protein disulfide oxidoreductases (thioredoxin/thioredoxin reductase, glutaredoxin, protein disulfide isomerase) in the reversibility of this process. 相似文献

The regulation of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and protein threonine phosphorylation by H(2)O(2) was determined in Caco-2 cell monolayer. Incubation with H(2)O(2) (20 microM) resulted in threonine phosphorylation of a cluster of proteins at the molecular mass range of 170-250 kDa. PKC activity and plasma membrane localization of several isoforms of PKC were not affected by H(2)O(2). However, H(2)O(2) reduced 80-85% of okadaic acid-sensitive protein phosphatase activity. Immunocomplex protein phosphatase assay demonstrated that H(2)O(2) reduced the activity of PP2A, but not that of PP2C or PP1. Oxidized glutathione inhibited PP2A activity in plasma membranes prepared from Caco-2 cells and the phosphatase activity of an isolated PP2A. PP2A activity was also inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, iodoacetamide, and p-chloromercuribenzoate. Inhibition of PP2A by oxidized glutathione was reversed by reduced glutathione. Glutathione also restored the PP2A activity in plasma membranes isolated from H(2)O(2)-treated Caco-2 cell monolayer. These results indicate that PP2A activity can be regulated by glutathionylation, and that H(2)O(2) inhibits PP2A in Caco-2 cells, which may involve glutathionylation of PP2A. 相似文献

Activation of free radical oxidation in various types of cells, including breast epithelial cells, can lead to damage to macromolecules, particularly proteins involved in regulation of proliferation and programmed cell death. The glutathione, glutaredoxin and thioredoxin systems play an essential role in maintaining intracellular redox homeostasis. In this regard, modulation of the redox status of cells by means of a blocker and a protector of SH-groups of proteins can be used as a model for studying the role of redox proteins and glutathione in regulation of cell proliferation during the development of various pathological processes. In this study the state of thioredoxin, glutaredoxin, glutathione systems and their role in the regulation of HBL-100 breast epithelial cell proliferation during modulation of the redox status by using N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and 1,4-dithioerythritol (DTE) have been investigated. The modulation of the redox status of the breast epithelial cells by the blocker (NEM) and the protector (DTE) of thiol groups of proteins and peptides influenced the functional activity of glutathione-dependent enzymes, glutaredoxin, thioredoxin, and thioredoxin reductase by changing concentrations of GSH and GSSG. Modulation of the redox status of HBL-100 cells was accompanied by an increase in the number of cells in the S phase of the cell cycle and a decrease of cells in G0/G1 and G2/M phases as compared with the intact cell culture. The proposed method for evaluating the proliferative activity of cells during modulation of their redox state can be used in the development of new therapeutic approaches for treatment of diseases accompanied by the development of oxidative stress. 相似文献

Tobacco mosaic virus movement protein interacts with green fluorescent protein-tagged microtubule end-binding protein 1 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The targeting of the movement protein (MP) of Tobacco mosaic virus to plasmodesmata involves the actin/endoplasmic reticulum network and does not require an intact microtubule cytoskeleton. Nevertheless, the ability of MP to facilitate the cell-to-cell spread of infection is tightly correlated with interactions of the protein with microtubules, indicating that the microtubule system is involved in the transport of viral RNA. While the MP acts like a microtubule-associated protein able to stabilize microtubules during late infection stages, the protein was also shown to cause the inactivation of the centrosome upon expression in mammalian cells, thus suggesting that MP may interact with factors involved in microtubule attachment, nucleation, or polymerization. To further investigate the interactions of MP with the microtubule system in planta, we expressed the MP in the presence of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fused microtubule end-binding protein 1a (EB1a) of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; AtEB1a:GFP). The two proteins colocalize and interact in vivo as well as in vitro and exhibit mutual functional interference. These findings suggest that MP interacts with EB1 and that this interaction may play a role in the associations of MP with the microtubule system during infection. 相似文献

The end-binding protein 1 (EB1) family is a highly conserved group of proteins that localizes to the plus-ends of microtubules. EB1 has been shown to play an important role in regulating microtubule dynamics and chromosome segregation, but its regulation mechanism is poorly understood. We have determined the 1.45-A resolution crystal structure of the amino-terminal domain of EB1, which is essential for microtubule binding, and show that it forms a calponin homology (CH) domain fold that is found in many proteins involved in the actin cytoskeleton. The functional CH domain for actin binding is a tandem pair, whereas EB1 is the first example of a single CH domain that can associate with the microtubule filament. Although our biochemical study shows that microtubule binding of EB1 is electrostatic in part, our mutational analysis suggests that the hydrophobic network, which is partially exposed in our crystal structure, is also important for the association. We propose that, like other actin-binding CH domains, EB1 employs the hydrophobic interaction to bind to microtubules. 相似文献

Protein S-glutathionylation serves a regulatory role in proteins and modulates distinct biological processes implicated in health and diseases. Despite challenges in analyzing the dynamic and reversible nature of S-glutathionylation, recent chemical and biological methods have significantly advanced the field of S-glutathionylation, culminating in selective identification and detection, structural motif analysis, and functional studies of S-glutathionylation. This review will highlight emerging studies of protein glutathionylation, beginning by introducing biochemical tools that enable mass spectrometric identification and live-cell imaging of S-glutathionylation. Next, it will spotlight recent examples of S-glutathionylation regulating physiology and inflammation. Lastly, we will feature two emerging lines of glutathionylation research in cryptic cysteine glutathionylation and protein C-glutathionylation. 相似文献

Regulation of mitochondrial NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase activity by glutathionylation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Recently, we demonstrated that the control of mitochondrial redox balance and oxidative damage is one of the primary functions of mitochondrial NADP(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDPm). Because cysteine residue(s) in IDPm are susceptible to inactivation by a number of thiol-modifying reagents, we hypothesized that IDPm is likely a target for regulation by an oxidative mechanism, specifically glutathionylation. Oxidized glutathione led to enzyme inactivation with simultaneous formation of a mixed disulfide between glutathione and the cysteine residue(s) in IDPm, which was detected by immunoblotting with anti-GSH IgG. The inactivated IDPm was reactivated enzymatically by glutaredoxin2 in the presence of GSH, indicating that the inactivated form of IDPm is a glutathionyl mixed disulfide. Mass spectrometry and site-directed mutagenesis further confirmed that glutathionylation occurs to a Cys(269) of IDPm. The glutathionylated IDPm appeared to be significantly less susceptible than native protein to peptide fragmentation by reactive oxygen species and proteolytic digestion, suggesting that glutathionylation plays a protective role presumably through the structural alterations. HEK293 cells and intact respiring mitochondria treated with oxidants inducing GSH oxidation such as H(2)O(2) or diamide showed a decrease in IDPm activity and the accumulation of glutathionylated enzyme. Using immunoprecipitation with anti-IDPm IgG and immunoblotting with anti-GSH IgG, we were also able to purify and positively identify glutathionylated IDPm from 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-treated mice, a model for Parkinson's disease. The results of the current study indicate that IDPm activity appears to be modulated through enzymatic glutathionylation and deglutathionylation during oxidative stress. 相似文献

S100A1 is a typical representative of a group of EF-hand calcium-binding proteins known as the S100 family. The protein is composed of two alpha subunits, each containing two calcium-binding loops (N and C). At physiological pH (7.2) and NaCl concentration (100 mm), we determined the microscopic binding constants of calcium to S100A1 by analysing the Ca(2+)-titration curves of Trp90 fluorescence for both the native protein and its Glu32 --> Gln mutant with an inactive N-loop. Using a chelator method, we also determined the calcium-binding constant for the S100A1 Glu73 --> Gln mutant with an inactive C-loop. The protein binds four calcium ions in a noncooperative way with binding constants of K(1) =4 +/- 2 x 10(3) m(-1) (C-loops) and K(2) approximately 10(2) m(-1) (N-loops). Only when both loops are saturated with calcium does the protein change its global conformation, exposing to the solvent hydrophobic patches, which can be detected by 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid - a fluorescent probe of protein-surface hydrophobicity. S-Glutathionylation of the single cysteine residue (85) of the alpha subunits leads to a 10-fold increase in the affinity of the protein C-loops for calcium and an enormous - four orders of magnitude - increase in the calcium-binding constants of its N-loops, owing to a cooperativity effect corresponding to DeltaDeltaG = -6 +/- 1 kcal.mol(-1). A similar effect is observed upon formation of the mixed disulfide with cysteine and 2-mercaptoethanol. The glutathionylated protein binds TRTK-12 peptide in a calcium-dependent manner. S100A1 protein can act, therefore, as a linker between the calcium and redox signalling pathways. 相似文献

The p21-activated kinase 2 (PAK2) is activated by binding of small G proteins, Cdc42 and Rac, or through proteolytic cleavage by caspases or caspase-like proteases. Activation by both small G protein and caspase requires autophosphorylation at Thr-402 of PAK2. Although activation of PAK2 has been investigated for nearly a decade, the mechanism of PAK2 downregulation is unclear. In this study, we have applied the kinetic theory of substrate reaction during modification of enzyme activity to study the regulation mechanism of PAK2 activity by the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1α). On the basis of the kinetic equation of the substrate reaction during the reversible phosphorylation of PAK2, all microscopic kinetic constants for the free enzyme and enzyme-substrate(s) complexes have been determined. The results indicate that (1) PP1α can act directly on phosphorylated Thr-402 in the activation loop of PAK2 and down-regulate its kinase activity; (2) binding of the exogenous protein/peptide substrates at the active site of PAK2 decreases both the rates of PAK2 autoactivation and inactivation. The present method provides a novel approach for studying reversible phosphorylation reactions. The advantage of this method is not only its usefulness in study of substrate effects on enzyme modification but also its convenience in study of modification reaction directly involved in regulation of enzyme activity. This initial study should provide a foundation for future structural and mechanistic work of protein kinases and phosphatases. 相似文献

Protein S-glutathionylation is emerging as a central oxidation that regulates redox signaling and biological processes linked to diseases. In recent years, the field of protein S-glutathionylation has expanded by developing biochemical tools for the identification and functional analyses of S-glutathionylation, investigating knockout mouse models, and developing and evaluating chemical inhibitors for enzymes involved in glutathionylation. This review will highlight recent studies of two enzymes, glutathione transferase omega 1 (GSTO1) and glutaredoxin 1 (Grx1), especially introducing their glutathionylation substrates associated with inflammation, cancer, and neurodegeneration and showcasing the advancement of their chemical inhibitors. Lastly, we will feature protein substrates and chemical inducers of LanC-like protein (LanCL), the first enzyme in protein C-glutathionylation. 相似文献

Brain and liver mitochondria isolated by a discontinuous Percoll gradient show an oxidized redox environment, which is reflected by low GSH levels and high GSSG levels and significant glutathionylation of mitochondrial proteins as well as by low NAD(P)H/NAD(P) values. The redox potential of brain mitochondria isolated by a discontinuous Percoll gradient method was calculated to be -171 mV based on GSH and GSSG concentrations. Immunoblotting and LC/MS/MS analysis revealed that succinyl-CoA transferase and ATP synthase (F(1) complex, α-subunit) were extensively glutathionylated; S-glutathionylation of these proteins resulted in a substantial decrease of activity. Supplementation of mitochondria with complex I or complex II respiratory substrates (malate/glutamate or succinate, respectively) increased NADH and NADPH levels, resulting in the restoration of GSH levels through reduction of GSSG and deglutathionylation of mitochondrial proteins. Under these conditions, the redox potential of brain mitochondria was calculated to be -291 mV. Supplementation of mitochondria with respiratory substrates prevented GSSG formation and, consequently, ATP synthase glutathionylation in response to H(2)O(2) challenges. ATP synthase appears to be the major mitochondrial protein that becomes glutathionylated under oxidative stress conditions. Glutathionylation of mitochondrial proteins is a major consequence of oxidative stress, and respiratory substrates are key regulators of mitochondrial redox status (as reflected by thiol/disulfide exchange) by maintaining mitochondrial NADPH levels. 相似文献
