The two forms of monoamine oxidase, monoamine oxidase A and monoamine oxidase B, have been associated with imidazoline-binding sites (type 2). Imidazoline ligands saturate the imidazoline-binding sites at nanomolar concentrations, but inhibit monoamine oxidase activity only at micromolar concentrations, suggesting two different binding sites [Ozaita A, Olmos G, Boronat MA, Lizcano JM, Unzeta M & García-Sevilla JA (1997) Br J Pharmacol121, 901-912]. When purified human monoamine oxidase A was used to examine the interaction with the active site, inhibition by guanabenz, 2-(2-benzofuranyl)-2-imidazoline and idazoxan was competitive with kynuramine as substrate, giving K(i) values of 3 microM, 26 microM and 125 microM, respectively. Titration of monoamine oxidase A with imidazoline ligands induced spectral changes that were used to measure the binding affinities for guanabenz (19.3 +/- 3.9 microM) and 2-(2-benzofuranyl)-2-imidazoline (49 +/- 8 microM). Only one type of binding site was detected. Agmatine, a putative endogenous ligand for some imidazoline sites, reduced monoamine oxidase A under anaerobic conditions, indicating that it binds close to the flavin in the active site. Flexible docking studies revealed multiple orientations within the large active site, including orientations close to the flavin that would allow oxidation of agmatine. 相似文献

A novel series of 1-acetyl-3,5-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole derivatives have been synthesised and investigated for the ability to inhibit selectively monoamine oxidases, swine kidney oxidase, and bovine serum amine oxidase. The newly synthesised compounds 1–6 proved to be reversible and non-competitive inhibitors of all types of the assayed amine oxidases. Compounds inhibit monoamine oxidases potently, displaying low I50 values of particular interest. In particular 1-acetyl-3-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5-(3-methylphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-(1H)-pyrazole 6 showed to be a potent monoamine oxidase inhibitor with a Ki of about 10−8 M. Further insights in the theoretical evaluation of the possible interactions between the compounds and monoamine oxidase B have been developed through a computational approach. 相似文献

Two methods have been employed to localize monoamine oxidase activity in the cells of rat liver, using either 2-(2'-benzothiazolyl)-5-stryl-3-(4'-phtalhydrazidyl) tetrazolium chloride (BSPT) or ferricyanide as electron acceptor. With both methods monoamine oxidase activity was found both in the inner and the outer mitochondral membrane, although the outer membrane appeared the most probable location. In addition the BSPT method but not the ferricyanide method, revealed monoamine oxidase activity in the endoplasmatic reticulum. The results obtained by the two methods have been compared and are discussed in view of available biochemical data on monoamine oxidase. 相似文献

The O(2)(-) generating NADPH oxidase complex of neutrophils comprises two sets of components, namely a membrane-bound heterodimeric flavocytochrome b which contains the redox centers of the oxidase and water-soluble proteins of cytosolic origin which act as activating factors of the flavocytochrome. The NADPH oxidase can be activated in a cell-free system consisting of plasma membranes and cytosol from resting neutrophils in the presence of GTPgammaS and arachidonic acid. NADPH oxidase activation is inhibited by phenylarsine oxide (PAO), a sulfhydryl reagent for vicinal or proximal thiol groups. The site of action of PAO was localized by photolabeling in the beta-subunit of flavocytochrome b [Doussière, J., Poinas, A, Blais, C., and Vignais, P. V. (1998) Eur. J. Biochem. 251, 649-658]. Moreover, the spin state of heme b is controlled by interaction of arachidonic acid with the flavocytochrome b [Doussière, J., Gaillard, J., and Vignais, P. V. (1996) Biochemistry 35, 13400-13410]. Here we report that the promoting effect of arachidonic acid on the activation of NADPH oxidase is due to specific binding of arachidonic acid to flavocytochrome b. Elicitation of NADPH oxidase activity by arachidonic acid is in part associated with an increased affinity of flavocytochrome b for O(2), an effect that was counteracted by the methyl ester of arachidonic acid. On the other hand, the affinity for NADPH was not affected by arachidonic acid. We further demonstrate that PAO antagonizes the effect of arachidonic acid on oxidase activation by decreasing the affinity of the oxidase for O(2), but not for NADPH. PAO induced a change in the spin state of heme b, as arachidonic acid does, with, however, some differences in the constraints imposed to the heme. It is concluded that the opposite effects of arachidonic acid and PAO are exerted on the beta-subunit of flavocytochrome b at two different interacting sites. 相似文献

L-lactate 2-monooxygenase from Mycobacterium smegmatis. Cloning, nucleotide sequence, and primary structure homology within an enzyme family 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
L-Lactate 2-monooxygenase catalyzes the oxidation of L-lactate to acetate and carbon dioxide. The catalytic mechanism has been extensively investigated but very little is known about which amino acid residues may play a role in catalysis. As a first step toward this goal, the gene for this protein from Mycobacterium smegmatis has been cloned and sequenced. Peptide sequencing data for L-lactate 2-monooxygenase was used to construct three sets of fully redundant tetradecamer oligonucleotide probes, which were hybridized to restriction-digested M. smegmatis DNA. An approximately 3-kilobase pair PstI fragment hybridized with two of the probes. This region was subsequently isolated and cloned into Escherichia coli. From this size-fractionated gene bank, a 3.1-kilobase pair genomic DNA fragment was isolated by colony hybridization to two of the oligonucleotide probes. The complete gene for L-lactate 2-monooxygenase was contained on this fragment as shown by DNA sequencing of the whole insert. The DNA sequence codes for a mature protein that is 393 amino acids in length with a subunit molecular weight of 43,072 (including the FMN). The protein sequence shows impressive homology with the primary structures of two mechanistically related proteins, yeast flavocytochrome b2 (Lederer, F., Cortial, S., Becam, A.-M., Haumont, P.-Y., and Perez, L. (1985) Eur. J. Biochem. 152, 419-428; Guiard, B. (1985) EMBO J. 4, 3265-3272) and spinach glycolate oxidase (Volkita, M., and Somerville, C. R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 15825-15828; Cederlund, E., Lindqvist, Y., Soderlund, G., Br?ndén, C.-I., and Jornvall, H. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 173, 523-530). For each residue proposed from the crystal structure of glycolate oxidase to be involved in catalysis (Lindqvist, Y., and Br?ndén, C.-I. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 3624-3628), an identical residue was found in a homologous position in lactate oxidase. Furthermore, most of these residues occur in regions whose sequences are highly conserved between lactate oxidase, flavocytochrome b2, and glycolate oxidase. 相似文献

The degradative fate of monoamine oxidase in endogenous and transplanted mitochondrial outer membrane has been compared in rat hepatocyte monolayers. Monoamine oxidase was specifically irreversibly radiolabelled by the suicide inhibitor [3H]pargyline. Hepatocyte monolayers were cultured in conditions in which rates of protein catabolism like those in vivo are maintained [Evans & Mayer (1983) Biochem. J. 216, 151-161]. Incubation of hepatocyte monolayers for 17 h with [3H]pargyline specifically radiolabels mitochondrial monoamine oxidase, as shown by Percoll-gradient fractionation of broken hepatocytes. Monoamine oxidase is degraded at a similar rate to that observed in liver in vivo (t1/2 approx. 63 h). The effects of leupeptin, methylamine and colchicine on the degradation of endogenous radiolabelled enzyme has been studied over prolonged culture periods. Culture of hepatocytes for periods of up to 80 h with inhibitors was not cytotoxic, as demonstrated by measurements of several intrinsic biochemical parameters. Leupeptin, methylamine and colchicine inhibit the degradation of endogenous monoamine oxidase by 60, 38 and 18% respectively. Monoamine oxidase in mitochondrial-outer-membrane vesicles introduced into hepatocytes by poly(ethylene glycol)-mediated vesicle-cell transplantation is degraded at a similar rate (t1/2 55 h) to the endogenous mitochondrial enzyme. Whereas leupeptin inhibits the degradation of endogenous and transplanted enzyme to a similar extent, methylamine and colchicine inhibit the degradation of transplanted enzyme to a much greater extent (85 and 56% respectively). Fluorescence microscopy (with fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated mitochondrial outer membrane) shows that transplanted mitochondrial outer membrane undergoes internalization and translocation to a sided perinuclear site, as observed previously with whole mitochondria [Evans & Mayer (1983) Biochem. J. 216, 151-161]. The effects of the inhibitors on the distribution of transplanted membrane material in the cell and inhibition of proteolysis show the importance of cytomorphology for intracellular protein catabolism. 相似文献

The recently discovered organic cofactor of bovine serum amine oxidase, topa quinone, is an uncommon amino acid residue in the polypeptide backbone (Janes, S. M., Mu, D., Wemmer, D., Smith, A. J., Kaur, S., Maltby, D., Burlingame, A. L., and Klinman, J. P. (1990) Science 248, 981-987). The amine oxidase gene from the yeast Hansenula polymorpha has been cloned and sequenced (Bruinenberg, P. G., Evers, M., Waterham, H. R., Kuipers, J., Arnberg, A. C., and Geert, A. B. (1989) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1008, 157-167). In order to understand the incorporation of topa quinone in eukaryotes, we have isolated yeast amine oxidase from H. polymorpha. Following protocols established with bovine serum amine oxidase, yeast amine oxidase was derivatized with [14C]phenylhydrazine, followed by thermolytic digestion and isolation of a dominant radiolabeled peptide by high pressure liquid chromatography. Comparison of resonance Raman spectra for this peptide to spectra of a model compound demonstrates that topa quinone is the cofactor. By alignment of a DNA-derived yeast amine oxidase sequence with the topa quinone-containing peptide sequence, it is found that the tyrosine codon, UAC, corresponds to topa quinone in the mature protein. In a similar manner, alignment of a tryptic peptide from bovine serum amine oxidase implicates tyrosine as the precursor to topa quinone in mammals. 相似文献

BACKGROUND/AIMS: 3,4-Dimethoxy-2-phenylethylamine is catalyzed to its aldehyde derivative by monoamine oxidase B, but the subsequent oxidation into the corresponding acid has not yet been studied. Oxidation of aromatic aldehydes is catalyzed mainly by aldehyde dehydrogenase and aldehyde oxidase. METHODS: The present study examines the metabolism of 3,4-dimethoxy-2-phenylethylamine in vitro and in freshly prepared and cryopreserved guinea pig liver slices and the relative contribution of different aldehyde-oxidizing enzymes was estimated by pharmacological means. RESULTS: 3,4-Dimethoxy-2- phenylethylamine was converted into the corresponding aldehyde when incubated with monoamine oxidase and further oxidized into the acid when incubated with both, monoamine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase. In freshly prepared and cryopreserved liver slices, 3,4-dimethoxyphenylacetic acid was the main metabolite of 3,4-dimethoxy-2- phenylethylamine. 3,4-Dimethoxyphenylacetic acid formation was inhibited by 85% from disulfiram (aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor) and by 75-80% from isovanillin (aldehyde oxidase inhibitor), whereas allopurinol (xanthine oxidase inhibitor) inhibited acid formation by only 25-30%. CONCLUSIONS: 3,4- Dimethoxy-2-phenylethylamine is oxidized mainly to its acid, via 3,4-dimethoxyphenylacetaldehyde, by aldehyde dehydrogenase and aldehyde oxidase with a lower contribution from xanthine oxidase. 相似文献

(1) Monoamine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.4) is present in rat skeletal muscle mitochondria. (2) A radioassay procedure for the assay of monoamine oxidase in muscle mitochondria is described. It is based on teh procedure using side-chain [2-14C]-tryptamine as substate described by Wurtman, R.J. and Axelrod, J. (1963) Biochem. Pharmacol. 12, 1439--1441 and employs a pH of 8.0 and a substrate concentration of 0.25 mM. (3) The Km of the muscle mitochondrial enzyme at pH 8.0 is 1.34 - 10(-5) M and that of the liver enzyme under the same conditions is 2.5 - 10(-5) M. Muscle mitochondria contain only one quarter of the activity of enzyme present in liver mitochondria. (4) Monoamine oxidase is shown to be in the outer membrane of skeletal muscle mitochondria and thus to be a suitable marker enzyme for use in the fractionation of these mitochondria. 相似文献

It was previously shown (Sayre, L. M., Arora, P. K., Feke, S. C., and Urbach, F. L. (1986) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 108, 2464-2466) that 1,3,3-trimethyl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyridinium salt (the 3,3-dimethyl analogue of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyridinium ion or MPDP+) is a good model for MPDP+ on the basis of its redox potential and was used to show that MPDP+ is unlikely to possess reactivity characteristics which could contribute to the neurotoxicity observed with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). 3,3-Dimethyl-MPTP and 3,3-dimethyl-MPDP+ are now shown to interact with monoamine oxidase similar to MPTP and MPDP+, but only in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol (beta-ME). In the absence of beta-ME, mixed competitive-noncompetitive inhibition kinetics are observed for 3,3-dimethyl-MPTP and 3,3-dimethyl-MPDP+, whereas competitive inhibition kinetics are exhibited by MPTP. In the presence of beta-ME, however, 3,3-dimethyl-MPTP also is a competitive inhibitor. 3,3-Dimethyl-MPTP and 3,3-dimethyl-MPDP+ also are time-dependent inactivators of monoamine oxidase, having identical kinetic constants, as is the case with MPTP and MPDP+. In the presence of beta-ME, but not glutathione, the rate of inactivation increases dramatically. When [beta-ME] and [3,3-dimethyl-MPTP] or [3,3-dimethyl-MPDP+] are varied, there is an optimal concentration of 1.0 mM for all three at which maximal inactivation rates are obtained. Another dramatic effect of the beta-ME is to lower the partition ratio for inactivation from greater than 50 to about one. This suggests that the effect of the beta-ME toward inactivation may be to induce a conformational change in the enzyme, which reorients an active site nucleophile for attack on the activated species. Support for involvement of an active site nucleophile is the finding that inactivation does not lead to a flavin adduct. Three possible mechanisms for inactivation of monoamine oxidase by MPTP and MPDP+ are suggested. 相似文献

Summary Bromopyruvic acid and thioglycolic acid react to form carboxymethylthiopyruvic acid, which was then isolated as the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone. Chromatographic and spectral properties of the compound have been investigated. Using this as a reference standard, it has been possible to demonstrate that carboxymethylthiopyruvate is the main product of the oxidative deamination of carboxymethylcysteine, D-isomer, catalyzed by D-aspartate oxidase. It has been demonstrated moreover that carboxymethylcysteine, L-isomer, may be a substrate for snake venom L-aminoacid oxidase.CMC

The activities of catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT), monoamine oxidase (MAO), and a methanol forming enzyme were studied in whole brain homogenates and in livers obtained from DBA/2J, C57B1/6J, and F1 hybrid mice. DBA/2J mice are extremely susceptible to audiogenic seizures, whereas C57B1/6J mice are resistant to sound-induced convulsions. C57B1/6J mice were found to have significantly higher brain levels of COMT, while MAO activities were not different in animals of these genotypes. No methanol forming activity was detected in animals of either strain. No differences were found in hepatic activities of either COMT or MAO. Pyrogallol was shown to protect DBA/2J animals against audiogenic seizures. 相似文献

Temperature dependence of the electron spin-lattice relaxation rate from pulsed EPR of CUA and heme a in cytochrome c oxidase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This work shows the feasibility of using pulsed, saturation recovery EPR to study directly the magnetic relaxation properties of metal centers in cytochrome c oxidase in the 1.5-20 K range. Heme a and CuA both showed remarkably similar Tn temperature dependences in their spin-lattice relaxation rates. Either both are in environments with very similar protein backbone configurations (Stapleton, H.J., J.P. Allen, C.P. Flynn, D.G. Stinson, and S.R. Kurtz, 1980, Phys. Rev. Lett., 45:1456-1459; Allen, J.P., J.T. Colvin, D.G. Stinson, C.P. Flynn, and H.J. Stapleton, 1982, Biophys. J., 38:299-310), or the CuA is relaxed by nearby heme a. Spin-lattice relaxation of the nitrosylferrocytochrome a3 center in mixed valence oxidase showed enhancement of relaxation by a nearby paramagnetic center, most likely heme a. 相似文献

Harman (1-methyl-beta-carboline) is an endogenous compound with neurotropic properties in rats and humans. In a novel in vitro binding assay, the binding site of [3H]harman has been characterized in the rat crude mitochondrial (P2) fraction. The binding was saturable and reversible. Only a single high-affinity binding site was detected by kinetic, saturation, and displacement analyses in the cerebral cortex of the rat. The linear Scatchard plots revealed equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) values of approximately 2.5 nM at 0 degrees C, approximately 9 nM at 23 degrees C, and approximately 30 nM at 37 degrees C. Among six CNS regions (hypothalamus, hippocampus, cerebral cortex, striatum, cerebellum, and spinal cord), the highest density of binding sites (Bmax) was determined in the hypothalamus (approximately 5.5 pmol/mg of protein) and the lowest in the spinal cord (approximately 2.0 pmol/mg of protein). Several drugs known to affect serotonergic, adrenergic, dopaminergic, cholinergic, or GABAergic neurotransmission inhibited specific binding at best in the micromolar range. In contrast, potent and selective inhibitors of monoamine oxidase subtype A were active in the lower and middle nanomolar range. The displacing potency (apparent Ki) of substrates and inhibitors of monoamine oxidase correlated positively and highly significantly with the corresponding values of the inhibition of monoamine oxidase activity of subtype A (r = 0.92, p less than 0.001, n = 17) but not of subtype B (r = -0.47, p greater than 0.05, n = 15). In conclusion, [3H]harman was identified as a specific ligand of the active site of the A subtype of monoamine oxidase in rat brain. 相似文献

The reaction of O-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydroxylamine with D-amino-acid oxidase leads to complete inactivation which can be protected against by the competitive inhibitor benzoate [D'Silva, C., Williams, C. H., Jr., & Massey, V. (1986) Biochemistry 25, 5602-5608]. The residue modified has been identified as methionine-110. Differential high-performance liquid chromatography mapping of tryptic digests of D-amino-acid oxidase modified in the absence and presence of benzoate allows the isolation of a single methionine-containing tryptic peptide corresponding to residues 100-115 and referred to as T6-T7. In unmodified enzyme, the bond involving Arg-108 is readily cleaved and T6 and T7 are isolated. Brief treatment of peptide T6-T7 with carboxypeptidase Y released residues 112-115, and the residual peptide was isolated in good yield. Further treatment of this peptide (residues 100-111) with carboxypeptidase Y released Val and an unknown amino acid that comigrated with synthetically prepared S-aminomethionine sulfonium salt. The unknown compound and S-aminomethionine break down to methionine on treatment with dithiothreitol. 相似文献

Recently, it was proposed that neutrophils generate ozone (Wentworth, P. J., McDunn, J. E., Wentworth, A. D., Takeuchi, C., Nieva, J., Jones, T., Bautista, C., Ruedi, J. M., Gutierrez, A., Janda, K. D., Babior, B. M., Eschenmoser, A., and Lerner, R. A. (2002) Science 298, 2195-2199; Babior, B. M., Takeuchi, C., Ruedi, J., Gutierrez, A., and Wentworth, P. J. (2003) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 100, 3031-3034). Evidence for the proposal was based largely on the chemistry of ozone reacting with indigo carmine to produce isatin sulfonic acid. In this investigation, we have examined the specificity of this reaction and whether it can be used as unequivocal evidence of ozone production by neutrophils. Stimulated neutrophils promoted the loss of indigo carmine and formation of isatin sulfonic acid in a reaction that was completely inhibited by superoxide dismutase. Methionine, which scavenges ozone, singlet oxygen, and hypochlorous acid, had no effect on the reaction. Neither did catalase or azide, which scavenge hydrogen peroxide and inhibit myeloperoxidase, respectively. From these results, it is apparent that superoxide was responsible for bleaching indigo carmine. Superoxide generated using xanthine oxidase and acetaldehyde also converted indigo carmine to isatin sulfonic acid in a reaction that was completely inhibited by superoxide dismutase and unaffected by catalase. When the xanthine oxidase reaction was carried out in H(2)(18)O, the proportion of (18)O incorporated into the isatin sulfonic acid was the same as that found for ozone. Thus, reactions of ozone and superoxide with indigo carmine are indistinguishable with respect to isatin sulfonic acid formation. We conclude that bleaching of indigo carmine cannot be used to invoke ozone production by neutrophils. Studies using indigo carmine to implicate ozone in other biological processes should also be interpreted with caution. 相似文献
