Iron oxidase was purified from plasma membranes of a moderately thermophilic iron oxidizing bacterium strain TI-1 in an electrophoretically homogeneous state. Spectrum analyses of purified enzyme showed the existence of cytochrome a, but not cytochrome b and c types. Iron oxidase was composed of five subunits with apparent molecular masses of 46 kDa (alpha), 28 kDa (beta), 24 kDa (gamma), 20 kDa (delta), and 17 kDa (epsilon). As the molecular mass of a native enzyme was estimated to be 263 kDa in the presence of 0.1% n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltopyranoside (DM), a native iron oxidase purified from strain TI-1 seems to be a homodimeric enzyme (alpha beta gamma delta epsilon)(2). Optimum pH and temperature for iron oxidation were pH 3.0 and 45 degrees C, respectively. The K(m) of iron oxidase for Fe(2+) was 1.06 mM and V(max) for O(2) uptake was 13.8 micromol x mg(-1) x min(-1). The activity was strongly inhibited by cyanide and azide. Purified enzyme from strain TI-1 is a new iron oxidase in which electrons of Fe(2+) were transferred to haem a and then to the molecular oxygen. 相似文献

The Eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, lives in shallow coastal waters and experiences many different environmental extremes including hypoxia, hypercapnia and air exposure and many oysters are infected with the protozoan parasite Perkinsus marinus. The effects of these conditions on oyster metabolism, as measured by oxygen uptake, were investigated. Mild hypercapnia had no effect on the ability of oysters to regulate oxygen uptake in hypoxic water, as measured by the B2 coefficient of oxygen regulation. The average B2 was -0.060x10(-3) (+/-0.01x10(-3) S.E.M.; n=20; low and high CO(2) treatments combined) in oysters uninfected with P. marinus and -0.056x10(-3) (+/-0.01x10(-3) S.E.M.; n=16; low and high CO(2) treatments combined) in infected oysters. There was no significant effect of light to moderate infections of P. marinus on oxygen regulation. Nor did the presence of P. marinus have an effect on the rate of oxygen uptake of whole animals in well-aerated water. In well-aerated conditions, oxygen uptake was significantly reduced by moderate hypercapnia in oysters when data from uninfected and infected oysters were combined. Mean oxygen uptake of infected oysters under hypercapnia (pCO(2)=6-8 Torr; pH 7) was 9.10 μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1) +/-0.62 S.E.M. (n=9), significantly different from oxygen uptake under normocapnia (pCO(2) =1 Torr; pH 8.2) (10.71 μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1) +/-0.62 S.E.M.; n=9). Similar to what occurred in infected whole animals, mean oxygen uptake of uninfected gill tissues under high CO(2), low pH conditions was 9.44 μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1) +/-0.95 S.E.M. (n=10), significantly different from oxygen uptake under low CO(2), high pH conditions (12.30 μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1) +/-0.95 S.E.M.; n=10). This result is due primarily to the low pH induced by hypercapnia rather than a CO(2)-specific effect. The presence of P. marinus had no effect on oxygen uptake in gill tissues. Intertidal oysters from South Carolina take up very little oxygen from the air when they are air exposed. Mean oxygen uptake in air at 25 degrees C (5.66x10(-4) μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1)+/-2.65x10(-4) S.E.M.; n=11) is less than 0.1% of oxygen uptake in seawater, suggesting that upon air exposure, oysters close their valves and isolate themselves from air. Oxygen uptake in air is slightly elevated at 35 degrees C (9.28x10(-4) μmol O(2) g ww(-1) h(-1) +/-5.57x10(-4) S.E.M.; n=11). There was not a strong correlation between oxygen uptake and P. marinus infection intensity at either 25 or 35 degrees C. 相似文献

Air proved to be a superior gaseous medium to pure oxygen used for oxygen uptake study in the Warburg apparatus Recording of volume change (vessel sensitivity method) was the only correct method of recording the oxygen uptake. It is concluded that the volume change method should be followed for recording oxygen uptake by Warburg apparatus and pure oxygen should not be used as a gaseous medium. 相似文献

We investigated whether a cooling vest worn during an active warm-up enhances 5-km run time in the heat. Seventeen competitive runners (9 men, maximal oxygen uptake = 66.7 +/- 5.9 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1); 8 women, maximal oxygen uptake = 58.0 +/- 3.2 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)) completed two simulated 5-km runs on a treadmill after a 38-min active warm-up during which they wore either a T-shirt (C) or a vest filled with ice (V) in a hot, humid environment (32 degrees C, 50% relative humidity). Wearing the cooling vest during warm-up significantly (P < 0.05) blunted increases in body temperature, heart rate (HR), and perception of thermal discomfort during warm-up compared with control. At the start of the 5-km run, esophageal, rectal, mean skin, and mean body temperatures averaged 0.3, 0.2, 1.8, and 0.4 degrees C lower; HR averaged 11 beats/min lower; and perception of thermal discomfort (5-point scale) averaged 0.6 point lower in V than C. Most of these differences were eliminated during the first 3.2 km of the run, and these variables were not different at the end. The 5-km run time was significantly lower (P < 0.05) by 13 s in V than C, with a faster pace most evident during the last two-thirds of the run. We conclude that a cooling vest worn during active warm-up by track athletes enhances 5-km run performance in the heat. Reduced thermal and cardiovascular strain and perception of thermal discomfort in the early portion of the run appear to permit a faster pace later in the run. 相似文献

Previous studies have reported respiratory, cardiac and muscle changes at rest in triathletes 24 h after completion of the event. To examine the effects of these changes on metabolic and cardioventilatory variables during exercise, eight male triathletes of mean age 21.1 (SD 2.5) years (range 17-26 years) performed an incremental cycle exercise test (IET) before (pre) and the day after (post) an official classic triathlon (1.5-km swimming, 40-km cycling and 10-km running). The IET was performed using an electromagnetic cycle ergometer. Ventilatory data were collected every minute using a breath-by-breath automated system and included minute ventilation (V(E)), oxygen uptake (VO2), carbon dioxide production (VCO2), respiratory exchange ratio, ventilatory equivalent for oxygen (V(E)/VO2) and for carbon dioxide (V(E)/VCO2), breathing frequency and tidal volume. Heart rate (HR) was monitored using an electrocardiogram. The oxygen pulse was calculated as VO2/HR. Arterialized blood was collected every 2 min throughout IET and the recovery period, and lactate concentration was measured using an enzymatic method. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) was determined using conventional criteria. Ventilatory threshold (VT) was determined using the V-slope method formulated earlier. Cardioventilatory variables were studied during the test, at the point when the subject felt exhausted and during recovery. Results indicated no significant differences (P > 0.05) in VO2max [62.6 (SD 5.9) vs 64.6 (SD 4.8) ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)], VT [2368 (SD 258) vs 2477 (SD 352) ml x min(-1)] and time courses of VO2 between the pre- versus post-triathlon sessions. In contrast, the time courses of HR and blood lactate concentration reached significantly higher values (P < 0.05) in the pre-triathlon session. We concluded that these triathletes when tested 24 h after a classic triathlon displayed their pre-event aerobic exercise capacity, bud did not recover pretriathlon time courses in HR or blood lactate concentration. 相似文献

The relationship between electrically evoked isometric and isokinetic properties of the triceps surae have been studied in 11 healthy male subjects. The results showed that the time to peak tension (TPT) and half relaxation time (1/2 RT) of the maximal twitch were 110 +/- 11 ms and 82 +/- 11 ms respectively, and the peak rates of rise of contraction (delta P50, delta P200) and relaxation (delta PR50, delta PR200) at 50 and 200 Hz were 0.36 +/- 0.07, 0.48 +/- 0.08 and 1.27 +/- 0.33, 1.25 +/- 0.27% Po ms-1 respectively. The decline in force during a fatigue test was significantly (P less than 0.02) associated with the decrease in maximal relaxation rate (r = 0.79). The TPT was significantly (P less than 0.05) and inversely related to delta P50 and delta P200. The mean angle specific torque-velocity relationship for the 11 subjects was adequately described by the empirical exponential equation of the form: V = 16.5 (e-P/30.8-e-84.3/30.8) where V = velocity (rads s-1) and P = torque (Nm). The only significant association found between the isometric and isokinetic properties of the muscle was between delta PR200 and the torque expressed at a given velocity of 4 rads s-1. This lack of association between the two variables is difficult to explain with certainty but it is suggested that it may be due to the differential effects of Ca2+ release and uptake and cross-bridge turnover rate in the two situations. 相似文献

Elevated oxygen uptake (VO2) during moderate-intensity running following a bout of interval running training has been studied previously. To further investigate this phenomenon, the VO2 response to high-intensity exercise was examined following a bout of interval running. Well-trained endurance runners were split into an experimental group [maximum oxygen uptake, VO2max 4.73 (0.39)l x min(-1)] and a reliability group [VO2max 4.77 (0.26)l x min(-1)]. The experimental group completed a training session (4 x 800 m at 1 km x h(-1) below speed at VO2max, with 3 min rest between each 800-m interval). Five minutes prior to, and 1 h following the training session, subjects completed 6 min 30 s of constant speed, high-intensity running designed to elicit 40% delta (where delta is the difference between VO2 at ventilatory threshold and VO2max; tests 1 and 2, respectively). The slow component of VO2 kinetics was quantified as the difference between the VO2 at 6 min and the VO2 at 3 min of exercise, i.e. deltaVO2(6-3). The deltaVO2(-3) was the same in two identical conditions in the reliability group [mean (SD): 0.30 (0.10)l x min(-1) vs 0.32 (0.13)l x min(-1)]. In the experimental group, the magnitude of the slow component of VO2 kinetics was increased in test 2 compared with test 1 by 24.9% [0.27 (0.14)l x min(-1) vs 0.34 (0.08)l x min(-1), P < 0.05]. The increase in deltaVO2(6-3) in the experimental group was observed in the absence of any significant change in body mass, core temperature or blood lactate concentration, either at the start or end of tests 1 or 2. It is concluded that similar mechanisms may be responsible for the slow component of VO2 kinetics and for the fatigue following the training session. It has been suggested previously that this mechanism may be linked primarily to changes within the active limb, with the recruitment of alternative and/or additional less efficient fibres. 相似文献

In the superior vena cava of anaesthetized open chest dogs the axial pressure gradient (delta P) was measured simultaneously with the blood flow velocity (V) under a variety of preload conditions. Both delta P and V curves showed distinct systolic and diastolic waves. Peak delta P ranged between 26 and 93 P/cm (0.2-0.7 mm Hg/cm) and V varied between 0.095 and 0.19 m/s. Peak systolic delta P, but not peak diastolic delta P was significantly linearly correlated to respectively peak systolic V and peak diastolic V. The shape of delta P and V curves corresponded fairly well but variations of delta P preceded the variations of V. Both the shape correspondence and the phase lag between delta P and V were evaluated by means of the normalized cross-correlation technique. During volume expansion the shape correspondence improved and the phase lag decreased. It is concluded that the transient vena caval blood velocity variations are directly related to the pulsatile axial pressure gradient. 相似文献

The rate of oxygen release from arterioles ( approximately 55 microm diameter) was measured in the hamster window chamber model during flow and no-flow conditions. Flow was stopped by microvascular transcutaneous occlusion using a glass pipette held by a manipulator. The reduction of the intra-arteriolar oxygen tension (Po2) was measured by the phosphorescence quenching of preinfused Pd-porphyrin, 100 microm downstream from the occlusion. Oxygen release from arterioles was found to be 53% greater during flow than no-flow conditions (2.6 vs. 1.7 x 10(-5) ml O2.cm(-2).s(-1), P < 0.05). Acute hemodilution with dextran 70 was used to reduce vessel oxygen content, significantly increase wall shear stress (14%, P < 0.05), reduce Hct to 28.4% (SD 1.0) [vs. 48.8% (SD 1.8) at baseline], lower oxygen supply by the arterioles (10%, P < 0.05), and increase oxygen release from the arterioles (39%, P < 0.05). Hemodilution also increased microcirculation oxygen extraction (33% greater than nonhemodilution, P < 0.05) and oxygen consumption by the vessel wall, as shown by an increase in vessel wall oxygen gradient [difference in Po2 between the blood and the tissue side of the arteriolar wall, nonhemodiluted 16.2 Torr (SD 1.0) vs. hemodiluted 18.3 Torr (SD 1.4), P < 0.05]. Oxygen released by the arterioles during flow vs. nonflow was increased significantly after hemodilution (3.6 vs. 1.8 x 10(-5) ml O2.cm(-2).s(-1), P < 0.05). The oxygen cost induced by wall shear stress, suggested by our findings, may be >15% of the total oxygen delivery to tissues by arterioles during flow in this preparation. 相似文献

Triglyceride hydrolysis by the perfused rat hindlimb is enhanced with serotonin-induced nonnutritive flow (NNF) and may be due to the presence of nonnutritive route-associated connective tissue fat cells. Here, we assess whether NNF influences muscle uptake of 0.55 mM palmitate in the perfused hindlimb. Comparisons were made with insulin-mediated glucose uptake. NNF induced during 60 nM insulin infusion inhibited hindlimb oxygen uptake from 22.0 +/- 0.5 to 9.7 +/- 0.8 micromol x g(-1) x h(-1) (P < 0.001), 1-methylxanthine metabolism (indicator of nutritive flow) from 5.8 +/- 0.4 to 3.8 +/- 0.4 nmol x min(-1) x g(-1) (P = 0.004), glucose uptake from 29.2 +/- 1.7 to 23.1 +/- 1.8 micromol x g(-1) x h(-1) (P = 0.005) and muscle 2-deoxyglucose uptake from 82.1 +/- 4.6 to 41.6 +/- 6.7 micromol x g(-1) x h(-1) (P < 0.001). Palmitate uptake, unaffected by insulin alone, was inhibited by NNF in extensor digitorum longus, white gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior muscles; average inhibition was from 13.9 +/- 1.2 to 6.9 +/- 1.4 micromol x g(-1) x h(-1) (P = 0.02). Thus NNF impairs both fatty acid and glucose uptake by muscle by restricting flow to myocytes but, as shown previously, favors triglyceride hydrolysis and uptake into nearby connective tissue fat cells. The findings have implications for lipid partitioning in limb muscles between myocytes and attendant adipocytes. 相似文献

Propagation of Acto-S-1 ATPase reaction-coupled conformational change in actin along the filament 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
T Ando 《Journal of biochemistry》1989,105(5):818-822
F-Actin was partially cross-linked to myosin subfragment-1 (S-1) at various molar ratios (r = S-1/actin) with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide. The cross-linked acto-S-1 ATPase showed so called "super-activation," Vx. S-1 was added further to the cross-linked acto-S-1 and the ATPase activity, Vy, was measured. Since the added S-1 can interact only with the bare actin protomers within the cross-linked actin filament, the difference, delta V = Vy - Vx - Vs (where Vs is the ATPase activity of the additional S-1 alone), can indicate the state of the bare actin protomers while the cross-linked acto-S-1 is hydrolyzing ATP. With increasing r, delta V decreased much more rapidly than delta Vo(1 - r) (where delta Vo is delta V at r = 0) and reached a minimum around r = 0.15. As r increased further, delta V approached the level of delta Vo(1 - r). When SH1/SH2-blocked S-1 was cross-linked to F-actin, delta V decreased according to delta Vo(1 - r). Therefore, the large reduction of delta V, observed when intact S-1 was cross-linked, was coupled to the high ATPase activity of the cross-linked acto-S-1. Combining these data with other kinetic data, we could deduce that structural distortion in a cross-linked actin induced by the ATPase reaction of the S-1 partner propagated over several bare actin protomers along the filament and reduced their affinity for the S-1-ADP-Pi complex.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Antibiotics are secondary metabolites, generally produced during stationary phase of growth under different nutritional and hydrodynamic stresses. However, the exact mechanisms of the induction of antibiotics production are still not clearly established. In a previous study, the induction of pristinamycins production by Streptomyces pristinaespiralis as well as product concentrations were correlated with power dissipation per unit of volume (P/V) in shaking flasks. In this study, detailed kinetics of growth, substrate consumption, oxygen transfer rate and pristinamycins production under varying P/V conditions have been obtained and analyzed. Our results showed that higher P/V resulted in a higher concentration of biomass and promoted an earlier nutrient limitation and ultimately an earlier induction of pristinamycins production. The maximal specific growth rate, specific oxygen consumption rate and specific consumption rate of glutamate increased with P/V while influence was less marked with specific consumption rate of glucose, arginine, ammonium ions and phosphate. When oxygen uptake rate (OUR) was limited by free-surface oxygen transfer, pristinamycins production was not detected despite the occurrence of nitrogen and/or phosphate sources limitation. The threshold value for OUR observed was around 25 mmol L(-1) h(-1). This suggested that a limitation in nitrogen and/or phosphate alone was not sufficient to induce pristinamycins production by S. pristinaespiralis pr11. To induce this production, the oxygen transfer had to be non-limiting. 相似文献

The present study examined the onset and the rate of rise of muscle oxidation during intense exercise in humans and whether oxygen availability limits muscle oxygen uptake in the initial phase of intense exercise. Six subjects performed 3 min of intense one-legged knee-extensor exercise [65.3 +/- 3.7 (means +/- SE) W]. The femoral arteriovenous blood mean transit time (MTT) and time from femoral artery to muscle microcirculation was determined to allow for an examination of the oxygen uptake at capillary level. MTT was 15.3 +/- 1.8 s immediately before exercise, 10.4 +/- 0.7 s after 6 s of exercise, and 4.7 +/- 0.5 s at the end of exercise. Arterial venous O(2) difference (a-v(diff) O(2)) of 18 +/- 5 ml/l before the exercise was unchanged after 2 s, but it increased (P < 0.05) after 6 s of exercise to 43 +/- 10 ml/l and reached 146 +/- 4 ml/l at the end of exercise. Thigh oxygen uptake increased (P < 0.05) from 32 +/- 8 to 102 +/- 28 ml/min after 6 s of exercise and to 789 +/- 88 ml/min at the end of exercise. The time to reach half-peak a-v(diff) O(2) and thigh oxygen uptake was 13 +/- 2 and 25 +/- 3 s, respectively. The difference between thigh oxygen delivery (blood flow x arterial oxygen content) and thigh oxygen uptake increased (P < 0.05) after 6 s and returned to preexercise level after 14 s. The present data suggest that, at the onset of exercise, oxygen uptake of the exercising muscles increases after a delay of only a few seconds, and oxygen extraction peaks after approximately 50 s of exercise. The limited oxygen utilization in the initial phase of intense exercise is not caused by insufficient oxygen availability. 相似文献

The effects on heart rate, oxygen uptake, and pulmonary ventilation of muscular exercises, including both dynamic contractions, either simple or combined, were studied in 4 male subjects, aged 21 to 23 years. The dynamic work consisted in cycling on an ergometric bicycle at three power levels: 40, 80, and 100 W. The static work consisted in pushing against, pulling and holding with the arms a 6, 9, 12, or 18 kg load. The physiological effects are expressed as cardiac cost (delta HR), oxygen cost (delta VO2) and ventilation cost (delta V). The physiological cost of the combined work increases according to the cycling power and to the isometric load developed. A statistical analysis shows that the costs of combined work are not different from the sum of the costs of the static and dynamic contractions measured separately. Thus, the physiological responses to the combinations investigated are of an additive type. 相似文献

Progesterone, 17-OH-progesterone, androstenedione and testosterone plasma levels in spermatic venous blood of normal men and varicocele patients 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Progesterone (P), 17-OH-progesterone (17-OH-P), Androstenedione (delta 4) and testosterone (T) plasma levels were measured in spermatic venous blood of twenty-nine varicocele patients (V) and in twelve normal subjects (N). Our data reveal a significant decrease of the mean testosterone in the spermatic blood of varicocele patients with respect to normal controls: (N = 1708.7 +/- 223.8 (SEM) nmol/l, n = 10. V = 1190.9 +/- 101.1 (SEM) nmol/l, n = 29. P less than 0.03). An inverse correlation has been observed between the age of varicocele patients and 17-OH-P (n = 29. y = -33.38x + 1384.70, r = -0.59, P less than 0.01) and delta 4 values (n = 23, y = -1.62x + 85.65, r = -0.49, P less than 0.05). The 17-OH-P/delta 4 ratio appears significantly augmented in varicocele patients with respect to normal controls (n = 4.80 +/- 0.86 (SEM), n = 12. V = 9.65 +/- 1.21 (SEM), n = 23.0.02 greater than P greater than 0.01). This indicates a deficiency in varicocele patients of 17-20 lyase activity. The positive correlation between the P/17-OH-P ratio and age of varicocele patients (n = 28, y = 0.007 x -0.090, r = 0.45, P less than 0.03) suggests a progressive impairment of 17-alpha-hydroxylase in such patients as they grow relatively older. These data demonstrated that the reduced spermatic levels of testosterone in varicoceles are due to the enzymatic impairment of testosterone biosynthesis, concerning firstly 17-20 lyase activity and secondly 17-alpha-hydroxylase activity. The latter enzymatic impairment is age related as is seen from the significant increase of the P/17-OH-P ratio in older patients. 相似文献

The lactose transport protein (LacS) of Streptococcus thermophilus has a C-terminal hydrophilic domain that is homologous to IIA protein and protein domains of the phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS). The IIA domain of LacS is phosphorylated on His-552 by the general energy coupling proteins of the PTS, which are Enzyme I and HPr. To study the effect of phosphorylation on transport, the LacS protein was purified and incorporated into liposomes with the IIA domain facing outwards. This allowed the phosphorylation of the membrane-reconstituted protein by purified HPr(His approximately P) of S. thermophilus. Phosphorylation of LacS increased the V(max) of counterflow transport, whereas the V(max) of the proton motive force (delta p)-driven lactose uptake was not affected. In line with a range of kinetic studies, we propose that phosphorylation affects the rate constants for the reorientation of the ternary complex (LacS with bound lactose plus proton), which is rate-determining for counterflow but not for delta p-driven transport. 相似文献

Electrical stimulation of human lower extremities enhances energy consumption, carbohydrate oxidation, and whole body glucose uptake. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Our laboratory has recently demonstrated that low-frequency electrical stimulation (ES) of quadriceps muscles alone significantly enhanced glucose disposal rate (GDR) during euglycemic clamp (Hamada T, Sasaki H, Hayashi T, Moritani T, and Nakao K. J Appl Physiol 94: 2107-2112, 2003). The present study is further follow-up to examine the acute metabolic effects of ES to lower extremities compared with voluntary cycle exercise (VE) at identical intensity. In eight male subjects lying in the supine position, both lower leg (tibialis anterior and triceps surae) and thigh (quadriceps and hamstrings) muscles were sequentially stimulated to cocontract in an isometric manner at 20 Hz with a 1-s on-off duty cycle for 20 min. Despite small elevation of oxygen uptake by 7.3 +/- 0.3 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1) during ES, the blood lactate concentration was significantly increased by 3.2 +/- 0.3 mmol/l in initial period (5 min) after the onset of the ES (P < 0.01), whereas VE showed no such changes at identical oxygen uptake (7.5 +/- 0.3 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)). ES also induced enhanced whole body carbohydrate oxidation as shown by the significantly higher respiratory gas exchange ratio than with VE (P < 0.01). These data indicated increased anaerobic glycolysis by ES. Furthermore, whole body glucose uptake determined by GDR during euglycemic clamp demonstrated a significant increase during and after the cessation of ES for at least 90 min (P < 0.01). This post-ES effect was significantly greater than that of the post-VE period (P < 0.01). These results suggest that ES can substantially enhance energy consumption, carbohydrate oxidation, and whole body glucose uptake at low intensity of exercise. Percutaneous ES may become a therapeutic utility to enhance glucose metabolism in humans. 相似文献

Hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (HAO) of the ammonia-oxidizing bacterium Nitrosomonas catalyzes the oxidation: NH2OH + H2O----HNO2 + 2e- + 2 H+. The heme-like chromophore P460 is part of a site which binds substrate, extracts electrons and then passes them to the many c hemes of the enzyme. Reduction of the c hemes by hydroxylamine is biphasic with apparent first-order rate constants k1 and k2. CO binds to ferrous P460 with apparent first-order rate constants, k1,CO. In this work we have measured the binding of CO to ferrous P460 of hydroxylamine oxidoreductase and the reduction by substrate of some of the 24 c hemes of the ferric enzyme. These reactions have been studied in water and 40% ethylene glycol, at temperatures ranging from -15 degrees C to 20.7 degrees C and at hydrostatic pressures ranging over 0.1-80 MPa. From the measurements, thermodynamic parameters delta V+ (activation volume), delta G+, delta H+, and delta S+ have been calculated. CO binding. Binding of CO to ferrous P460 was similar to the binding of CO to ferrous horseradish peroxidase. The change of solvent had only a limited effect on delta V+ (-30 ml.mol-1), delta G+, delta H+ or delta S+ and did not cause an inflection in the Arrhenius plot or downward displacement of the linear relationship between ln k1,CO and P at a critical temperature. Binding was exothermic at high temperatures. The response of the binding of CO to solvent, temperature and pressure suggested that the CO binding site had little access to solvent and was not susceptible to change in protein conformation. Fast phase of reduction of c hemes. Changing the solvent from water to 40% ethylene glycol resulted in a decrease from 90% to 50% in the relative number of c hemes reduced during the fast phase, an increase in activation volume from -3.6 ml.mol-1 to 57 ml.mol-1 and changes in other thermodynamic parameters. The activation volume increased with decreasing temperature. The Arrhenius plot had a downward inflection at about 0 degrees C and, in water or ethylene glycol, the linear dependence of ln k1 on P was displaced downwards as the temperature changed from 3.5 degrees C to -15 degrees C. Slow phase of reduction of c hemes. Changing the solvent from water to 40% ethylene glycol resulted in an increase in the relative number of c hemes reduced during the slow phase from 10% to 50%. The activation volume, which was not measurable in water because of the low absorbance change, was -30 ml.mol-1 in ethylene glycol. The activation volume increased with increasing temperature.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Cyanide-insensitive oxygen uptake in the dark of 9 species of cyanobacteria was 6–20% of the total oxygen uptake of intact cells. In Phormidium , no cyanideinsensitive oxygen uptake was observed. In intact cells, the I50 value for cyanide was significantly lower in cyanobacteria of the taxonomic sections I to III (1–9 μ M ) than in those from section IV and V (10–60 μ M ). Cyanide-insensitive oxygen uptake in the cell-free system of Anabaena variabilis was not affected by typical inhibitors of the alternative pathway of plants. Cell-free oxidation of cytochrome c was completely inhibited by cyanide with an I50 value of 0.5–1 μ M . Electron transport of intact cells without cyanide present yielded P/O ratios of 0.7–3.0. The data on oxidative phosphorylation using intact cells and the cell-free system, indicate that cyanide-insensitive oxygen uptake is not coupled to ATP formation. 相似文献

Pre-exercise stretching has been widely reported to reduce performance in tasks requiring maximal or near-maximal force or torque. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of 3 different pre-exercise stretching routines on running economy. Seven competitive male middle and long-distance runners (mean +/- SD) age: 32.5 +/- 7.7 years; height: 175.0 +/- 8.8 cm; mass: 67.8 +/- 8.6 kg; V(.-)O2max: 66.8 +/- 7.0 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)) volunteered to participate in this study. Each participant completed 4 different pre-exercise conditions: (a) a control condition, (b) static stretching, (c) progressive static stretching, and (d) dynamic stretching. Each stretching routine consisted of 2 x 30-second stretches for each of 5 exercises. Dependent variables measured were sit and reach test before and after each pre-exercise routine, running economy (ml x kg(-1) x km(-1)), and steady-state oxygen uptake (ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)), which were measured during the final 3 minutes of a 10-minute run below lactate threshold. All 3 stretching routines resulted in an increase in the range of movement (p = 0.008). There was no change in either running economy (p = 0.915) or steady-state V(.-)O2 (p = 0.943). The lack of change in running economy was most likely because it was assessed after a period of submaximal running, which may have masked any effects from the stretching protocols. Previously reported reductions in performance have been attributed to reduced motor unit activation, presumably IIX. In this study, these motor units were likely not to have been recruited; this may explain the unimpaired performance. This study suggests that pre-exercise stretching has no impact upon running economy or submaximal exercise oxygen cost. 相似文献
