Partly purified membranes (with plasmalemma material) of Acetabularia mediterranea were studied with respect to ATPase activity in alkali- and Ca++-free media and its sensitivity to pH (5 – 9), oligomycin (200 ?g/mg protein), 100 ?M N-N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), and 50 ?M vanadate. Besides activities which may originate from mitochondrial H+ ATPase (oligomycin-sensitive, alkaline pH optimum) and tonoplast H+ ATPase (DCCD-sensitive, pH optimum 7.5), there is ATPase activity with a pH optimum around pH 6.5, sensitive to vanadate and insensitive to DCCD. These results strongly suggest that the electrogenic Cl? pump in the plasmalemma of Acetabularia is an ATPase. Effects of Mg++, Mg-ATP, ADP, GTP, UTP, CTP and HCO3 ? versus Cl? on this ATPase activity are described. 相似文献

The combined effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and low temperature (LT) on cucumber plants were investigated with respect to biomass production, H2O2 accumulation, NADPH oxidase, ATPase activity and related gene expression. Mycorrhizal colonization ratio was gradually increased after AMF-inoculation. However, LT significantly decreased mycorrhizal colonization ability and mycorrhizal dependency. Regardless of temperature, the total fresh and dry mass, and root activity of AMF-inoculated plants were significantly higher than that of the non-AMF control. The H2O2 accumulation in AMF-inoculated roots was decreased by 42.44 % compared with the control under LT. H2O2 predominantly accumulated on the cell walls of apoplast but was hardly detectable in the cytosol or organelles of roots. Again, NADPH oxidase activity involved in H2O2 production was significantly reduced by AMF inoculation under LT. AMF-inoculation remarkably increased the activities of P-type H+-ATPase, P-Ca2+-ATPase, V-type H+-ATPase, total ATPase activity, ATP concentration and plasma membrane protein content in the roots under LT. Additionally, ATP concentration and expression of plasma membrane ATPase genes were increased by AMF-inoculation. These results indicate that NADPH oxidase and ATPase might play an important role in AMF-mediated tolerance to chilling stress, thereby maintaining a lower H2O2 accumulation in the roots of cucumber. 相似文献

The activity of Na-K-ATPase was determined in the posterior gills of the shore crabCarcinus maenas during a period following transfer from 35 to 10 ‰ salinity and vice versa at 15 °C. After transfer from high to low salinity, Na-K-ATPase activity increased from 3.2 to 7.0 μmoles Pi mg protein?1 h?1 within a period of 2 to 3 weeks. Transfer of crabs from low to high salinity resulted in reduction of activity from 7.4 to 4.5 μmoles Pi mg protein?1 h?1 within about the same period. The relatively slow response following salinity change indicates that the amounts of Na-K-ATPase in the gills may play a role in hyperionic Na regulation in relatively constant brackish-water environments. Instant responses to salinity result from activation and inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity by Na. Gill Na-K-ATPase is activated by the Na concentration of the incubation medium to attain a steep maximum at about 75 mM Na, which corresponds to the lowest environmental Na levels tolerated byC. maenas equivalent to a salinity of ca 6 ‰. Activity greatly decreased towards higher Na levels, equivalent to the salinity of normal sea water, at which hyperregulation no longer occurs. Selective addition of either Na or Cl to brackish water of 9 ‰ S resulted in effective hyperregulation of the non-increased ion, and passive distribution between medium and blood of the increased ion. These data indicate that under appropriate conditions the normally coupled transport of Na and Cl may be uncoupled and take place independently of each other. 相似文献

A coupling factor necessary for the photophosphorylation and Mg2+-ATPase activities of Rhodospirillum rubrum chromatophores has been separated from these particles. Although the redox potential of coupling factor deficient chromatophores is slightly more oxidized than of the control, the addition of the coupling factor for reconstitution does not alter the redox potential. Phenazine methosulfate cannot restore or significantly enhance the photophosphorylation activities of uncoupled or reconstituted chromatophores compared to the control. The coupling factor can bind to coupling factor deficient membranes without addition of magnesium ions and thus restore the photophosphorylation and Mg2+-ATPase activities of these vesicles. The Ca2+-ATPase in the coupling factor preparation shows binding characteristics similar to those of the coupling factor. 相似文献

(Na++K+)-ATPase proved to be present in the vegetative thalli ofBoergesenia forbesii (Harvey) Feldmann. The ATPase was extracted with Triton X-100 and partially purified by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The enzyme was activated with Mg2+ and further stimulated by the addition of K+ and Na+. It was observed thatp-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB),N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), iodoacetoamide, copper sulfate, zinc sulfate, lead nitrate and cadmium chloride inhibited the enzyme activity, but ouabain was ineffective, andN,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) did not apparently inhibit the activity, but rather promoted it slightly. The ATPase activity was also shown in the isolated cell wall ofBoergesenia thalli, and the enzyme activity was detected in the wall itself by using electron microscopic methods. 相似文献

Plants of Monstera deliciosa Liebm. pruned to exemplars with one leaf and one aerial root were labeled with 7.4 MBq 14CO2 over the leaf blade. Microautoradiographs of soluble and insoluble radioactivity were prepared from three different regions of the aerial root. In addition, histochemical localization of ATPase was carried out on similar aerial roots. Vigorously growing aerial roots grew as fast as 26 mm d-1, and zones of differentiation extended more than 10 cm from the root tip. In the region 2–3 cm from the root tip, in which only protoelements of the vascular tissue were differentiated, 14C-label was restricted to the protophloem. The activity of ATPase was recognized in many different cellular organelles of the meristematic phloem parenchyma. In the region 5–6 cm from the root tip, in which the first metaelements differentiated, all parenchyma cells of the central cylinder and many cortical cells showed 14C-label, in addition to the densely labeled protophloem. Differentiating vessels were heavily labeled at sites where secondary walls were formed. In this region of the root, ATPase activity was concentrated on the plasmalemma and cortical cytoplasma of the sieve tubes, and on the tonoplast of the phloem parenchyma cells. In contrast, the strands of internal metaphloem with giant sieve tubes, which are scattered among the metaxylem, were neither labeled nor did they show ATPase activity. In the zone 19–20 cm from the root tip, regions of cell differentiation in the sclerenchymatic mantle of the inner cortex, the late-formed metaxylem vessels and some strands of the internal metaphloem could be identified by dense 14C-label. Low ATPase activity was found in the plasmalemma of practically all living cells. In this nearly mature region, a strong peroxidase activity was observed in the radial walls of the endodermis. The results indicate that phloem unloading was strongest at sites of root differentiation, where ATPase activity was concentrated in the plasmalemma of sieve tubes and the tonoplast of phloem parenchyma. 相似文献

The regulatory roles of the components of the troponin-tropomyosin complex in the presence and absence of Mg2+ on the acto-S1 ATPase have been examined. The effect of free Mg2+ on the inhibition of the acto-S1 ATPase by rabbit skeletal troponin (Tn) was studied at S1 to actin ratios ranging from 0.17:1 to 2.5:1. These studies were performed using two Mg2+ concentrations: 2.5 mM Mg2+-2.5 mM ATP, conditions considered to have low free Mg2+; and 5.0 mM Mg2+-2.5 mM ATP, conditions providing a high free Mg2+ concentration of ~2.5 mM. In the presence of high free Mg2+ (2.5 mM ATP-5.0 mM MgCl2) the Tn inhibition of acto-S1-TM ATPase increased by approximately 40–50% over a range of S1 to actin ratios of 0.17:1 to 2.5:1. The effect of free Mg2+ on increasing quantities of Tn in the absence or presence of tropomyosin was studied independently at two S1 to actin ratios (1:1 and 2:1). In the absence of TM, at 5 mM Mg2+ there is an additional 38% (1:1 S1 to actin) or 37% (2:1) decrease in the ATPase activity by Tn compared to 2.5 mM Mg2+. Similarly, in the presence of TM and Tn, Mg2+ exerts its effect at both S1 to actin ratios. Significantly, the inhibition by the IT complex in the presence of TM is unaffected by free Mg2+. Furthermore, ultracentrifugation binding studies using14C-iodoacetamide-labeled Tn and TM established that the Tn-TM regulatory complex was firmly bound to F-actin at both Mg2+ concentrations, indicating that faciliation of binding to F-actin by Mg2+ is not responsible for the increased inhibition. Hence, it is concluded from the data that Mg2+ binding and by analogy Ca2+ binding to the Ca2+-Mg2+ sites of TnC promotes muscle relaxation by inducing inhibition of the actomyosin ATPase, whereas Ca2+ binding to the Ca2+-specific sites promotes contraction by potentiating the ATPase. The inhibition of the acto-S1-TM ATPase by TnT has also been further examined. The data indicate that TnT exerts the same level of inhibition upon the ATPase as TnI or Tn. The inhibitory activity requires TM, and occurs to the same extent under conditions where TM alone would have either a potentiating (2:1 S1 to actin) or an inhibitory (1:1 S1 to actin) effect upon the ATPase. In the presence of TM the IT complex is a more effective inhibitor than either TnI, TnT, or Tn. The inhibitory activity of the IT complex is partially released by TnC in the absence of Ca2+. These observations, in conjunction with those by Chong, Asselbergs, and Hodges, which showed that the inhibition by TnT is partially released by TnC plus Ca2+, indicate that the role of TnT involves more than anchoring Tn to the thin filament. 相似文献

The function of the Mg-dependent ATPase of Hevea tonoplast in active proton transport was investigated by using a purified tonoplast fraction containing tightly sealed vesicles. In the used experimental conditions, the uptake of [14C]triphenylmethyl-phosphonium ion ([14C]TPMP+) and [3H]tetraphenyl-phosphonium ion ([3H]TPP+) by the vesicles indicated a transmembrane potential difference, negative inside. In parallel, the uptake of [14C]methylamine into the vesicles monitored a transmembrane pH gradient, interior acid. The addition of 5 mM Mg-ATP markedly depolarized the membrane and increased the magnitude of trnasmembrane pH gradient. These ATP-driven events were substrate specific for Mg-ATP. They were strongly inhibited by ATPase inhibitors such as N, N′-dicyclohexylcar-bodiimide. They were completely eliminated by proton conductors such as carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxy-phenylhydrazone and 5-chloro-3-tert-butyl-2′-chloro-4-nitro-salicylanilide. They depended on the pH of the medium, the maximum being reached at about pH 7.0. These data provide in vitro evidence that the Mg-ATPase localized at tonoplast level is an electrogenic pump. They are consistent with the hypothesis that an electrogenic H+ pump is catalyzed by the tonoplast ATPase of higher plants. 相似文献

It has been described that A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM10) may involve in the physiopathology of prion diseases, but the direct molecular basis still remains unsolved. In this study, we confirmed that ADAM10 was able to cleave recombinant human prion protein in vitro. Using immunoprecipitation tests (IP) and immunofluorescent assays (IFA), reliable molecular interaction between the native cellular form of PrP (PrPC) and ADAM10 was observed not only in various cultured neuronal cell lines but also in brain homogenates of healthy hamsters and mice. Only mature ADAM10 (after removal of its prodomain) molecules showed the binding activity with the native PrPC. Remarkably more prion protein (PrP)-ADAM10 complexes were detected in the membrane fraction of cultured cells. In the scrapie-infected SMB cell model, the endogenous ADAM10 levels, especially the mature ADAM10, were significantly decreased in the fraction of cell membrane. IP and IFA tests of prion-infected SMB-S15 cells confirmed no detectable PrP-ADAM10 complex in the cellular lysates and PrP-ADAM10 co-localization on the cell surface. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the levels of ADAM10 in the brain homogenates of scrapie agent 263K-infected hamsters and agent ME7-infected mice were also almost diminished at the terminal stage, showing time-dependent decreases during the incubation period. Our data here provide the solid molecular basis for the endoproteolysis of ADAM10 on PrP molecules and interaction between ADAM10 and PrPC. Obvious loss of ADAM10 during prion infection in vitro and in vivo highlights that ADAM10 may play essential pathophysiological roles in prion replication and accumulation. 相似文献

The current large-scale meta-analysis was performed to reach a reliable conclusion on the association between X-ray repair cross-complementing 1 (xrcc1) rs1799782 and the development of lung cancer. Studies that investigated the association between rs1799782 and lung cancer risk were identified by searching PubMed. We calculated odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95 % confidence interval (CI) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Arg, Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, and Trp/Trp vs Arg/Trp + Arg/Arg contrast models. Combining all 25 studies, we yielded three summary ORs: 1.07 (95 % CI 0.92–1.23) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Arg, 0.93 (95 % CI 0.87–1.00) for Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, and 1.08 (95 % CI 0.94–1.25) for Trp/Trp vs Arg/Trp + Arg/Arg, suggesting rs1799782 was not associated with overall risk of lung cancer. Strikingly, a significantly deceased risk was found among Caucasian populations (Trp/Trp + Arg/Trp vs Arg/Arg, OR = 0.86, 95 % CI 0.76–0.97). This study confirms that xrcc1 rs1799782 may lower the risk of lung cancer among Caucasians. 相似文献

Homooligomeric ATP-dependent LonA proteases are bifunctional enzymes belonging to the superfamily of AAA+ proteins. Their subunits are formed by five successively connected domains, i.e., N-terminal (N), α-helical (HI(CC)), nucleotide-binding (NB), the second α-helical (H), and proteolytic (P) domains. The presence of the inserted HI(CC) domain determines the uniqueness of LonA proteases among the AAA+ proteins. The role of the α-helical domains in the LonA protease functioning was studied with an example of E. coli Lon protease (Ec-Lon). The properties of the intact Ec-Lon and its mutant forms, i.e., Lon-R164A and Lon-R542A bearing the substituted arginine residues at the similar positions in the HI(CC) and H domains, were compared. The H domain was shown to play a crucial role in ATP hydrolysis and enzyme binding to the target protein. The HI(CC) domain is not decisive for the manifestation of the catalytic properties of the enzyme. However, it affects the functioning of Lon ATPase and peptidase sites and is involved in maintaining enzyme stability. The participation of the HI(CC) domain in the formation of three-dimensional structures of LonA proteases and/or their complexes with DNA is suggested. 相似文献

Development of drug resistance is a challenging problem in cancer chemotherapy. It has been shown that basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) plays an important role in an epigenetic mechanism of drug resistance. We have isolated a bFGF binding peptide P7 with inhibitory activity against bFGF-induced proliferation of human gastric cancer cells by screening a phage display library. In this study, we found that P7 peptide also has efficacy of reversing bFGF-induced resistance to Adriamycin (ADM) in human gastric cancer cells. Further investigations with SGC-7901 cells revealed that inhibition of Akt activation triggered by bFGF, and reversal of bFGF-induced up-regulation of Bcl-2 and XIAP and down-regulation of Bax, contribute to P7 peptide counteracting the anti-apoptotic effect of bFGF, and further reversing bFGF-induced resistance to ADM. The results suggested that the bFGF-binding peptide may have therapeutic potential of drug resistance in gastric cancer. 相似文献

Intermolt adult crayfishP. clarkii were used for this work. After acclimatation to laboratory conditions crayfish were exposed to sublethal concentrations of cadmium, mercury, and lead for 96 h. Gills of control and exposed crayfish were removed and ATPase activity and oxygen uptake rate were determined. Structural damage of gill filaments was also observed. Gill tissue respiration rates were measured for individual crayfish using a Gilson differential respirometer. Lead causes a decrease of gill oxygen uptake, but neither cadmium nor mercury seems to affect it at the concentrations employed. Although all metals studied alter gill filament structure, lead damage is the most apparent. In the same way, significant differences in gill ATPase activity owing to metal exposure were only observed in lead treated crayfish. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) emerges as an essential molecule for the regulating of osteoblast cellular functions. In the current study, we explored the effect of epiregulin, a new EGFR ligand, on osteoblast functions in vitro, and studied the underlying mechanisms. We found that epiregulin-induced EGFR activation in both primary osteoblasts and osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. Meanwhile, epiregulin activated AKT-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and Erk-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalings in cultured osteoblasts, which were blocked by EGFR inhibitor AG1478 or monoclonal antibody against EGFR (anti-EGFR). Further, in primary and MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts, epiregulin promoted cell proliferation and increased alkaline phosphatase activity, while inhibiting dexamethasone (Dex)-induced cell death. Such effects by epiregulin were largely inhibited by AG1478 or anti-EGFR. Notably, AKT-mTOR inhibitors, but not Erk inhibitors, alleviated epiregulin-induced above pleiotropic functions in osteoblasts. Meanwhile, siRNA depletion of Sin1, a key component of mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2), also suppressed epiregulin-exerted effects in MC3T3-E1 cells. Together, these results suggest that epiregulin-induced pleiotropic functions in cultured osteoblasts are mediated through EGFR-AKT-mTOR signalings. 相似文献

To investigate the expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ, TGF-β, and IL-4 in the spinal tuberculous focus and its relationship with the lesions type, severity, and bone destruction. The pathological samples of patients with spinal tuberculosis (TB) were divided into hyperplasia group and necrosis group according to their intra-operative and post-operative pathological findings. Normal bone tissues were taken as the control group. Pathology and expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ, TGF-β, and IL-4 in different tissues were compared among these three groups using immunohistochemical staining, quantitative image analysis, and measurement of bone tissue. 286 granulomas observed in the 14 samples in the hyperplasia group, which included 84 necrotizing and 202 non-necrotizing granulomas. As for the 20 samples in the necrosis group, there were 356 necrotizing and 186 non-necrotizing granulomas among all the 542 granulomas. The proportion of necrotizing granulomas in the necrosis group was significantly higher than that of the hyperplasia group. By inter-group comparison, expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ of granulomas in the hyperplasia group was significantly higher than that of the necrosis group, while the expression of TGF-β, IL-4 of granulomas in the necrosis group was significantly higher than that of the hyperplasia group. Also, expression of IFN-γ of non-necrotizing granulomas was significantly higher than that of necrotizing granulomas in the hyperplasia group, and expression of TGF-β in necrotizing granulomas was significantly higher than that of non-necrotizing granulomas in the necrosis group. The lesions were mainly bone resorption in the hyperplasia group, whereas mostly necrotic bones accompanied by local fibrosis in the necrosis group. Expression levels of TNF-α, IFN-γ in the hyperplasia group have a positive correlation to bone loss, whereas expression levels of TGF-β, IL-4 in the necrosis group have a positive correlation to the bone formation. The high expressions of TNF-α, IFN-γ in the spinal tuberculous focus were associated with protective immune cells. TGF-β and IL-4 were related to allergic lesions, fibrosis and osteogenesis. Expression imbalance of TNF-α, IFN-γ, TGF-β, and IL-4 might aggravate the allergy of TB. 相似文献
