Cell death can be divided into the anti-inflammatory process of apoptosis and the
pro-inflammatory process of necrosis. Necrosis, as apoptosis, is a regulated form of cell
death, and Poly-(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and Receptor-Interacting Protein (RIP)
1/3 are major mediators. We previously showed that absence or inhibition of PARP-1
protects mice from nephritis, however only the male mice. We therefore hypothesized that
there is an inherent difference in the cell death program between the sexes. We show here
that in an immune-mediated nephritis model, female mice show increased apoptosis compared
to male mice. Treatment of the male mice with estrogens induced apoptosis to levels
similar to that in female mice and inhibited necrosis. Although PARP-1 was activated in
both male and female mice, PARP-1 inhibition reduced necrosis only in the male mice. We
also show that deletion of RIP-3 did not have a sex bias. We demonstrate here that male
and female mice are prone to different types of cell death. Our data also suggest that
estrogens and PARP-1 are two of the mediators of the sex-bias in cell death. We therefore
propose that targeting cell death based on sex will lead to tailored and better treatments
for each gender. 相似文献

Light-dependent inorganic C (Ci) transport and accumulation in air-grown cells of Synechococcus UTEX 625 were examined with a mass spectrometer in the presence of inhibitors or artificial electron acceptors of photosynthesis in an attempt to drive CO2 or HCO3− uptake separately by the cyclic or linear electron transport chains. In the presence of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea, the cells were able to accumulate an intracellular Ci pool of 20 mm, even though CO2 fixation was completely inhibited, indicating that cyclic electron flow was involved in the Ci-concentrating mechanism. When 200 μm N,N-dimethyl-p-nitrosoaniline was used to drain electrons from ferredoxin, a similar Ci accumulation was observed, suggesting that linear electron flow could support the transport of Ci. When carbonic anhydrase was not present, initial CO2 uptake was greatly reduced and the extracellular [CO2] eventually increased to a level higher than equilibrium, strongly suggesting that CO2 transport was inhibited and that Ci accumulation was the result of active HCO3− transport. With 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea-treated cells, Ci transport and accumulation were inhibited by inhibitors of CO2 transport, such as COS and Na2S, whereas Li+, an HCO3−-transport inhibitor, had little effect. In the presence of N,N-dimethyl-p-nitrosoaniline, Ci transport and accumulation were not inhibited by COS and Na2S but were inhibited by Li+. These results suggest that CO2 transport is supported by cyclic electron transport and that HCO3− transport is supported by linear electron transport. 相似文献

A new role is reported for CP12, a highly unfolded and flexible protein,
mainly known for its redox function with A4
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Both reduced and oxidized
CP12 can prevent the in vitro thermal inactivation and aggregation of
GAPDH from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This mechanism is thus not
redox-dependent. The protection is specific to CP12, because other proteins,
such as bovine serum albumin, thioredoxin, and a general chaperone, Hsp33, do
not fully prevent denaturation of GAPDH. Furthermore, CP12 acts as a specific
chaperone, since it does not protect other proteins, such as catalase, alcohol
dehydrogenase, or lysozyme. The interaction between CP12 and GAPDH is
necessary to prevent the aggregation and inactivation, since the mutant C66S
that does not form any complex with GAPDH cannot accomplish this protection.
Unlike the C66S mutant, the C23S mutant that lacks the N-terminal bridge is
partially able to protect and to slow down the inactivation and aggregation.
Tryptic digestion coupled to mass spectrometry confirmed that the S-loop of
GAPDH is the interaction site with CP12. Thus, CP12 not only has a redox
function but also behaves as a specific “chaperone-like protein”
for GAPDH, although a stable and not transitory interaction is observed. This
new function of CP12 may explain why it is also present in complexes involving
A2B2 GAPDHs that possess a regulatory C-terminal
extension (GapB subunit) and therefore do not require CP12 to be
redox-regulated.CP12 is a small 8.2-kDa protein present in the chloroplasts of most
photosynthetic organisms, including cyanobacteria
(1,
2), higher plants
(3), the diatom
Asterionella formosa
(4,
5), and green
(1) and red algae
(6). It allows the formation of
a supramolecular complex between phosphoribulokinase (EC 2.7.1.19) and
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
(GAPDH),3 two key
enzymes of the Calvin cycle pathway, and was recently shown to interact with
fructose bisphosphate aldolase, another enzyme of the Calvin cycle pathway
(7). The
phosphoribulokinase·GAPDH·CP12 complex has been extensively
studied in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
(8,
9) and in Arabidopsis
thaliana (10,
11). In the green alga C.
reinhardtii, the interaction between CP12 and GAPDH is strong
(8). GAPDH may exist as a
homotetramer composed of four GapA subunits (A4) in higher plants,
cyanobacteria, and green and red algae
(6,
12), but in higher plants, it
can also exist as a heterotetramer (A2B2), composed of
two subunits, GapA and GapB
(13,
14). GapB, up to now, has
exclusively been found in Streptophyta, but recently two
prasinophycean green algae, Ostreococcus tauri and Ostreococcus
lucimarinus, were also shown to possess a GapB gene, whereas
CP12 is missing (15).
The GapB subunit is similar to the GapA subunit but has a C-terminal extension
containing two redox-regulated cysteine residues
(16). Thus, although the
A4 GAPDHs lack these regulatory cysteine residues
(13,
14,
17–20),
they are also redox-regulated through its interaction with CP12, since the C
terminus of this small protein resembles the C-terminal extension of the GapB
subunit. The regulatory cysteine residues for GapA are thus supplied by CP12,
as is well documented in the literature
(1,
8,
11,
16).CP12 belongs to the family of intrinsically unstructured proteins (IUPs)
(21–26).
The amino acid composition of these proteins causes them to have no or few
secondary structures. Their total or partial lack of structure and their high
flexibility allow them to be molecular adaptors
(27,
28). They are often able to
bind to several partners and are involved in most cellular functions
(29,
30). Recently, some IUPs have
been described in photosynthetic organisms
(31,
32).There are many functional categories of IUPs
(22,
33). They can be, for
instance, involved in permanent binding and have (i) a scavenger role,
neutralizing or storing small ligands; (ii) an assembler role by forming
complexes; and (iii) an effector role by modulating the activity of a partner
molecule (33). These functions
are not exclusive; thus, CP12 can form a stable complex with GAPDH, regulating
its redox properties (8,
34,
35), and can also bind a metal
ion (36,
37). IUPs can also bind
transiently to partners, and some of them have been found to possess a
chaperone activity (31,
38). This chaperone function
was first shown for α-synuclein
(39) and for α-casein
(40), which are fully
disordered. The amino acid composition of IUPs is less hydrophobic than those
of soluble proteins; hence, they lack hydrophobic cores and do not become
insoluble when heated. Since CP12 belongs to this family, we tested if it was
resistant to heat treatment and finally, since it is tightly bound to GAPDH,
if it could prevent aggregation of its partner, GAPDH, an enzyme well known
for its tendency to aggregate
(41–44)
and consequently a substrate commonly used in chaperone studies
(45,
46).Unlike chaperones, which form transient, dynamic complexes with their
protein substrates through hydrophobic interactions
(47,
48), CP12 forms a stable
complex with GAPDH. The interaction involves the C-terminal part of the
protein and the presence of negatively charged residues on CP12
(35). However, only a
site-directed mutagenesis has been performed to characterize the interaction
site on GAPDH. Although the mutation could have an indirect effect, the
residue Arg-197 was shown to be a good candidate for the interaction site
(49).In this report, we accordingly used proteolysis experiments coupled with
mass spectrometry to detect which regions of GAPDH are protected by its
association with CP12. To conclude, the aim of this report was to characterize
a chaperone function of CP12 that had never been described before and to map
the interaction site on GAPDH using an approach that does not involve
site-directed mutagenesis. 相似文献

cDNA
corresponding to the GA4 gene of
Arabidopsis thaliana L. (Heynh.) was
expressed in Escherichia coli, from which cell lysates
converted [14C]gibberellin (GA)9 and
[14C]GA20 to radiolabeled GA4 and
GA1, respectively, thereby confirming that
GA4 encodes a GA 3β-hydroxylase. GA9 was
the preferred substrate, with a Michaelis value of 1 μm
compared with 15 μm for GA20. Hydroxylation
of these GAs was regiospecific, with no indication of
2β-hydroxylation or 2,3-desaturation. The capacity of the recombinant
enzyme to hydroxylate a range of other GA substrates was investigated.
In general, the preferred substrates contained a polar bridge between
C-4 and C-10, and 13-deoxy GAs were preferred to their 13-hydroxylated
analogs. Therefore, no activity was detected using
GA12-aldehyde, GA12, GA19,
GA25, GA53, or GA44 as the open
lactone (20-hydroxy-GA53), whereas GA15,
GA24, and GA44 were hydroxylated to
GA37, GA36, and GA38, respectively.
The open lactone of GA15 (20-hydroxy-GA12) was
hydroxylated but less efficiently than GA15. In contrast to
the free acid, GA25 19,20-anhydride was 3β-hydroxylated
to give GA13. 2,3-Didehydro-GA9 and
GA5 were converted by recombinant GA4 to the corresponding
epoxides 2,3-oxido-GA9 and GA6.Dwarf mutants with reduced biosynthesis of the GA plant hormones
have been valuable tools in studies of the function of these compounds
(Ross, 1994). In Arabidopsis thaliana, mutations
at six loci (GA1-GA6) that result in reduced GA
biosynthesis have been identified (Koorneef and van der Veen, 1980;
Sponsel et al., 1997), and three of these loci have recently been
cloned. The GA1 locus was isolated by genomic subtraction
(Sun et al., 1992) and shown by heterologous expression in
Escherichia coli to encode the enzyme that cyclizes
geranylgeranyl diphosphate to copalyl diphosphate (Sun and Kamiya,
1994). This enzyme was formerly referred to as ent-kaurene
synthase A but has been renamed copalyl diphosphate synthase
(Hedden and Kamiya, 1997; MacMillan, 1997). The GA5
locus was shown to correspond to one of the GA 20-oxidase genes (Xu et
al., 1995), the products of which catalyze the conversion of
GA12 to GA9 and
GA53 to GA20 (Phillips et
al., 1995; Xu et al., 1995). GA 20-oxidases are
2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases that are encoded by small
multigene families, members of which are differentially expressed in
plant tissues (Phillips et al., 1995; Garcia-Martinez et al., 1997).The GA4 locus was isolated by T-DNA tagging and, on the
basis of the derived amino acid sequence, was also shown to encode a
dioxygenase (Chiang et al., 1995). Several lines of evidence indicate
that the GA4 gene encodes a GA 3β-hydroxylase. Shoots of a
ga4 mutant, all alleles of which are semidwarf, contained
reduced concentrations of the 3β-hydroxy GAs
GA1, GA4, and
GA8 compared with the Landsberg erecta
wild type, whereas levels of immediate precursors to these GAs were
elevated (Talon et al., 1990). Furthermore, metabolism of
[13C]GA20 to
[13C]GA1 was
substantially less in the mutant than in the wild type (Kobayashi et
al., 1994). In the present paper we confirm by functional expression of
its cDNA in E. coli that GA4 encodes a GA
3β-hydroxylase. In addition, we determine the substrate specificity
of recombinant GA4 using a number of C20- and
C19-GAs and show by kinetic analysis that the enzyme
has a higher affinity for GA9 than for
GA20, which is consistent with the
non-13-hydroxylation pathway predominating in Arabidopsis (Talon et
al., 1990). 相似文献

A Phosphothreonine Residue at the C-Terminal End of the Plasma
Membrane H+-ATPase Is Protected by Fusicoccin-Induced
14–3–3 Binding 下载免费PDF全文
Anne Olsson Fredrik Svennelid Bo Ek Marianne Sommarin Christer Larsson 《Plant physiology》1998,118(2):551-555
We have isolated the plasma membrane H+−ATPase in a phosphorylated form from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaf tissue incubated with fusicoccin, a fungal toxin that induces irreversible binding of 14–3–3 protein to the C terminus of the H+-ATPase, thus activating H+ pumping. We have identified threonine-948, the second residue from the C-terminal end of the H+-ATPase, as the phosphorylated amino acid. Turnover of the phosphate group of phosphothreonine-948 was inhibited by 14–3–3 binding, suggesting that this residue may form part of a binding motif for 14–3–3. This is the first identification to our knowledge of an in vivo phosphorylation site in the plant plasma membrane H+-ATPase. 相似文献

The bacterium Streptomyces anulatus 9663, isolated from the
intestine of different arthropods, produces prenylated derivatives of
phenazine 1-carboxylic acid. From this organism, we have identified the
prenyltransferase gene ppzP. ppzP resides in a gene cluster
containing orthologs of all genes known to be involved in phenazine
1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis in Pseudomonas strains as well as
genes for the six enzymes required to generate dimethylallyl diphosphate via
the mevalonate pathway. This is the first complete gene cluster of a phenazine
natural compound from streptomycetes. Heterologous expression of this cluster
in Streptomyces coelicolor M512 resulted in the formation of
prenylated derivatives of phenazine 1-carboxylic acid. After inactivation of
ppzP, only nonprenylated phenazine 1-carboxylic acid was formed.
Cloning, overexpression, and purification of PpzP resulted in a 37-kDa soluble
protein, which was identified as a 5,10-dihydrophenazine 1-carboxylate
dimethylallyltransferase, forming a C–C bond between C-1 of the
isoprenoid substrate and C-9 of the aromatic substrate. In contrast to many
other prenyltransferases, the reaction of PpzP is independent of the presence
of magnesium or other divalent cations. The Km value for
dimethylallyl diphosphate was determined as 116 μm. For
dihydro-PCA, half-maximal velocity was observed at 35 μm.
Kcat was calculated as 0.435 s-1. PpzP shows
obvious sequence similarity to a recently discovered family of
prenyltransferases with aromatic substrates, the ABBA prenyltransferases. The
present finding extends the substrate range of this family, previously limited
to phenolic compounds, to include also phenazine derivatives.The transfer of isoprenyl moieties to aromatic acceptor molecules gives
rise to an astounding diversity of secondary metabolites in bacteria, fungi,
and plants, including many compounds that are important in pharmacotherapy.
However, surprisingly little biochemical and genetic data are available on the
enzymes catalyzing the C-prenylation of aromatic substrates. Recently, a new
family of aromatic prenyltransferases was discovered in streptomycetes
(1), Gram-positive soil
bacteria that are prolific producers of antibiotics and other biologically
active compounds (2). The
members of this enzyme family show a new type of protein fold with a unique
α-β-β-α architecture
(3) and were therefore termed
ABBA prenyltransferases (1).
Only 13 members of this family can be identified by sequence similarity
searches in the data base at present, and only four of them have been
investigated biochemically
(3–6).
Up to now, only phenolic compounds have been identified as aromatic substrates
of ABBA prenyltransferases. We now report the discovery of a new member of the
ABBA prenyltransferase family, catalyzing the transfer of a dimethylallyl
moiety to C-9 of 5,10-dihydrophenazine 1-carboxylate
(dihydro-PCA).2
Streptomyces strains produce many of prenylated phenazines as natural
products. For the first time, the present paper reports the identification of
a prenyltransferase involved in their biosynthesis.Streptomyces anulatus 9663, isolated from the intestine of
different arthropods, produces several prenylated phenazines, among them
endophenazine A and B (Fig.
1A) (7).
We wanted to investigate which type of prenyltransferase might catalyze the
prenylation reaction in endophenazine biosynthesis. In streptomycetes and
other microorganisms, genes involved in the biosynthesis of a secondary
metabolite are nearly always clustered in a contiguous DNA region. Therefore,
the prenyltransferase of endophenazine biosynthesis was expected to be
localized in the vicinity of the genes for the biosynthesis of the phenazine
core (i.e. of PCA).Open in a separate windowFIGURE 1.A, prenylated phenazines from S. anulatus 9663.
B, biosynthetic gene cluster of endophenazine A.In Pseudomonas, an operon of seven genes named phzABCDEFG
is responsible for the biosynthesis of PCA
(8). The enzyme PhzC catalyzes
the condensation of phosphoenolpyruvate and erythrose-4-phosphate
(i.e. the first step of the shikimate pathway), and further enzymes
of this pathway lead to the intermediate chorismate. PhzD and PhzE catalyze
the conversion of chorismate to 2-amino-2-deoxyisochorismate and the
subsequent conversion to 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, respectively.
These reactions are well established biochemically. Fewer data are available
about the following steps (i.e. dimerization of
2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, several oxidation reactions, and a
decarboxylation, ultimately leading to PCA via several instable
intermediates). From Pseudomonas, experimental data on the role of
PhzF and PhzA/B have been published
(8,
9), whereas the role of PhzG is
yet unclear. Surprisingly, the only gene cluster for phenazine biosynthesis
described so far from streptomycetes
(10) was found not to contain
a phzF orthologue, raising the question of whether there may be
differences in the biosynthesis of phenazines between Pseudomonas and
Streptomyces.Screening of a genomic library of the endophenazine producer strain S.
anulatus now allowed the identification of the first complete gene
cluster of a prenylated phenazine, including the structural gene of
dihydro-PCA dimethylallyltransferase. 相似文献

α-Amylases are glucan hydrolases that cleave α-1,4-glucosidic bonds in starch. In vascular plants, α-amylases can be classified into three subfamilies. Arabidopsis has one member of each subfamily. Among them, only AtAMY3 is localized in the chloroplast. We expressed and purified AtAMY3 from Escherichia coli and carried out a biochemical characterization of the protein to find factors that regulate its activity. Recombinant AtAMY3 was active toward both insoluble starch granules and soluble substrates, with a strong preference for β-limit dextrin over amylopectin. Activity was shown to be dependent on a conserved aspartic acid residue (Asp666), identified as the catalytic nucleophile in other plant α-amylases such as the barley AMY1. AtAMY3 released small linear and branched glucans from Arabidopsis starch granules, and the proportion of branched glucans increased after the predigestion of starch with a β-amylase. Optimal rates of starch digestion in vitro was achieved when both AtAMY3 and β-amylase activities were present, suggesting that the two enzymes work synergistically at the granule surface. We also found that AtAMY3 has unique properties among other characterized plant α-amylases, with a pH optimum of 7.5–8, appropriate for activity in the chloroplast stroma. AtAMY3 is also redox-regulated, and the inactive oxidized form of AtAMY3 could be reactivated by reduced thioredoxins. Site-directed mutagenesis combined with mass spectrometry analysis showed that a disulfide bridge between Cys499 and Cys587 is central to this regulation. This work provides new insights into how α-amylase activity may be regulated in the chloroplast. 相似文献

Rab2 requires glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and atypical
protein kinase Cι (aPKCι) for retrograde vesicle formation from
vesicular tubular clusters that sort secretory cargo from recycling proteins
returned to the endoplasmic reticulum. However, the precise role of GAPDH and
aPKCι in the early secretory pathway is unclear. GAPDH was the first
glycolytic enzyme reported to co-purify with microtubules (MTs). Similarly,
aPKC associates directly with MTs. To learn whether Rab2 also binds directly
to MTs, a MT binding assay was performed. Purified Rab2 was found in a
MT-enriched pellet only when both GAPDH and aPKCι were present, and
Rab2-MT binding could be prevented by a recombinant fragment made to the Rab2
amino terminus (residues 2-70), which directly interacts with GAPDH and
aPKCι. Because GAPDH binds to the carboxyl terminus of α-tubulin,
we characterized the distribution of tyrosinated/detyrosinated α-tubulin
that is recruited by Rab2 in a quantitative membrane binding assay.
Rab2-treated membranes contained predominantly tyrosinated α-tubulin;
however, aPKCι was the limiting and essential factor.
Tyrosination/detyrosination influences MT motor protein binding; therefore, we
determined whether Rab2 stimulated kinesin or dynein membrane binding.
Although kinesin was not detected on membranes incubated with Rab2, dynein was
recruited in a dose-dependent manner, and binding was aPKCι-dependent.
These combined results suggest a mechanism by which Rab2 controls MT and motor
recruitment to vesicular tubular clusters.The small GTPase Rab2 is essential for membrane trafficking in the early
secretory pathway and associates with vesicular tubular
clusters
(VTCs)2 located
between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the cis-Golgi compartment
(1,
2). VTCs are pleomorphic
structures that sort anterograde-directed cargo from recycling proteins and
trafficking machinery retrieved to the ER
(3-6).
Rab2 bound to a VTC microdomain stimulates recruitment of soluble factors that
results in the release of vesicles containing the recycling protein p53/p58
(7). In that regard, we have
previously reported that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and
atypical PKC ι (aPKCι) are Rab2 effectors that interact directly
with the Rab2 amino terminus and with each other
(8,
9). Their interaction requires
Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of GAPDH and aPKCι
(10). Moreover, GAPDH is a
substrate for aPKCι (11).
GAPDH catalytic activity is not required for ER to Golgi transport indicating
that GAPDH provides a specific function essential for membrane trafficking
from VTCs independent of glycolytic function
(9). Indeed, phospho-GAPDH
influences MT dynamics in the early secretory pathway
(11).GAPDH was the first glycolytic enzyme reported to co-purify with
microtubules (MTs) (12) and
subsequently was shown to interact with the carboxyl terminus of
α-tubulin (13). The
binding of GAPDH to MTs promotes formation of cross-linked parallel MT arrays
or bundles (14,
15). GAPDH has also been
reported to possess membrane fusogenic activity, which is inhibited by tubulin
(16). Similarly, aPKC
associates directly with tubulin and promotes MT stability and MT remodeling
at specific intracellular sites
(17-21).
It may not be coincidental that these two Rab2 effectors influence MT dynamics
because recent studies indicate that the cytoskeleton plays a central role in
the organization and operation of the secretory pathway
(22).MTs are dynamic structures that grow or shrink by the addition or loss of
α- and β-tubulin heterodimers from the ends of protofilaments
(23). Their assembly and
stability is regulated by a variety of proteins traditionally referred to as
microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). In addition to the multiple
α/β isoforms that are present in eukaryotes, MTs undergo an
assortment of post-translational modifications, including acetylation,
glycylation, glutamylation, phosphorylation, palmitoylation, and
detyrosination, which further contribute to their biochemical heterogeneity
(24,
25). It has been proposed that
these tubulin modifications regulate intracellular events by facilitating
interaction with MAPs and with other specific effector proteins
(24). For example, the
reversible addition of tyrosine to the carboxyl terminus of α-tubulin
regulates MT interaction with plus-end tracking proteins (+TIPs) containing
the cytoskeleton-associated protein glycine-rich (CAP-Gly) motif and with
dynein-dynactin
(27-29).
Additionally, MT motility and cargo transport rely on the cooperation of the
motor proteins kinesin and dynein
(30). Kinesin is a plus-end
directed MT motor, whereas cytoplasmic dynein is a minus-end MT-based motor,
and therefore the motors transport vesicular cargo toward the opposite end of
a MT track (31).Although MT assembly does not appear to be directly regulated by small
GTPases, Rab proteins provide a molecular link for vesicle movement along MTs
to the appropriate target (22,
32-34).
In this study, the potential interaction of Rab2 with MTs and motor proteins
was characterized. We found that Rab2 does not bind directly to preassembled
MTs but does associate when both GAPDH and aPKCι are present and bound to
MTs. Moreover, the MTs predominantly contained tyrosinated α-tubulin
(Tyr-tubulin) suggesting that a dynamic pool of MTs that differentially binds
MAPs/effector proteins/motors associates with VTCs in response to Rab2. To
that end, we determined that Rab2-promoted dynein/dynactin binding to
membranes and that the recruitment required aPKCι. 相似文献
