The calcium dependence and the time course of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine degradation by sheep erythrocyte membrane suspensions in presence of Triton X-100 were investigated. One enzyme with phospholipase A2 specificity was found to be responsible for both phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine degradation.The localization of this enzyme in the membrane of the sheep erythrocyte was investigated by proteolytic treatment of sealed erythrocyte ghosts from the outside and of ghosts which had both sides of the membrane exposed to chymotrypsin. The inability of sealed ghosts to take up chymotrypsin was followed by flux measurements of [14C]dextran carboxyl previously trapped in the ghosts. No efflux of the marker was found during the proteolytic treatment. By comparing the residual phospholipase activities in the membranes from both ghost preparations, we concluded that the phospholipase is oriented to the exterior of the sheep erythrocyte.  相似文献

UV-light is shown to induce the structural transitions in the erythrocyte membrane described by S-shape curves in plots of the structural response versus the irradiation dose. In contrast to the free acetylcholine esterase (AChE) UV-light acts on the membrane enzyme as a mixed inhibitor (simultaneous change in Vmax and Km). The modification of the environment structure of residual enzyme is suggested to be the main reason of this phenomenon. The effect is under the control of membrane integrity and disappears after its desintegration. Membrane AChE treated ultrasonically both prior to and after irradiation is inactivated without a Km change. The data obtained show the influence of erythrocyte membrane structure on the catalytic behaviour of membrane-bound AChE.  相似文献

STUDIES ON ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE OF RAT BRAIN SYNAPTOSOMAL PLASMA MEMBRANES   总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2  
Abstract— A fluorimetric assay has been used to examine some kinetic properties of AChE from synaptosomal plasma membranes prepared from rat brain. The AChE bound to the plasma membranes was compared to that solubilized with Triton X-100 and found to be essentially the same with respect to Michaelis constant and inhibitor constants for several AChE inhibitors. The two forms of the enzyme had slightly different pH optima. The kinetic studies revealed no evidence that synaptosomal plasma membrane AChE has allosteric properties. The solubilized enzyme was further purified by affinity chromatography.  相似文献

The three new dual-layer matrices (polyacrylonitrile (PAN) membranes coated with physically bound chitosan (CHI)—PANCHI-A and chemically bound chitosan—PANCHI-B and PANCHI-C) for immobilization of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were obtained. The chemical-modified PAN membrane (PAN-NaOH + ethylenediamine (EDA)) was used as a base for the prepared dual-layer membranes. For chemical chitosan bound membrane, chitosan was tethered onto the membrane surface to form a dual-layer biomimetic membrane in the presence of glutaraldehyde (GA). The basic characteristics (amount of amino groups, hydrophilicity and transport characteristics) of the chitosan-modified membranes were investigated. The SEM analyses were shown essential morphology change in the different chitosan membranes.The relative activities and Vmax of the covalently immobilized enzyme on PANCHI-B and PANCHI-C membranes were higher than that on PANCHI-A membrane and chemical-modified membrane with NaOH + EDA. Km values for the different modified membranes are lower for the chitosan-treated membranes. The pH and temperature optimum of immobilized enzyme were determined. The bound enzymes on PANCHI-B and PANCHI-C have higher thermal and storage stability in comparison with AChE on PANCHI-A membrane and free enzyme.  相似文献

Unhealthy dietary habits are key determinants of obesity in adolescents. Assuming that dietary fat profile influences membrane lipid composition, the aim of this study was to analyze structural changes in the erythrocyte membrane of obese compared to normal-weight adolescents. The study was conducted in a group of 11 obese and 11 normal-weight adolescent subjects. The lipid profile, lipid peroxidation and acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) activity were analyzed by conventional methods. The structural properties of reconstituted erythrocyte membrane were characterized by X-ray diffraction. Erythrocyte membrane from obese adolescents had a lipid profile characterized by a higher cholesterol/phospholipid ratio, an increase in saturated fatty acid and a decrease in monounsaturated and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations. Differences in lipid content were associated with changes in the structural properties of reconstituted membranes and the oxidative damage of erythrocyte membrane. The lower oxidative level shown in the obese group (0.15 ± 0.04 vs. 0.20 ± 0.06 nmol/mg for conjugated diene concentrations and 2.43 ± 0.25 vs. 2.83 ± 0.31 nmol/mg protein for malondialdehyde levels) was related to a lower unsaturation index. These changes in membrane structural properties were accompanied by a lower AChE activity (1.64 ± 0.13 vs. 1.91 ± 0.24 nmol AChE/[min mg protein]) in the obese group. The consequences of unhealthy dietary habits in adolescents are reflected in the membrane structural properties and may influence membrane-associated protein activities and functions.  相似文献

The effect of high-intensity ultrasound (11.2-54.2 W/cm2, frequency 36 kHz) on the structural and functional state of erythrocytes was investigated. It was shown that, at short-term action of the ultrasound (up to 1 min), the dose-dependent hemolysis of erythrocytes occurs. It was found that the exposure to ultrasound of high intensity (54.2 W/cm2) leads to the disruption of the structural state of erythrocyte membranes, which manifests itself in a change of microviscosity of the lipid bilayer of membranes and inhibition of the activity of the lipid-dependent membrane-bound enzyme acetylcholinesterase.  相似文献

A preparation of purified erythrocyte membrane ATPase whose activation by Ca2+ is or is not dependent on calmodulin depending on the enzyme dilution was used in the low dilution state for these studies. In appropriate conditions, the purified ATPase in the absence of calmodulin exhibited a Ca2+ concentration dependence identical to that of the native enzyme in the erythrocyte membrane ghost in the presence of calmodulin. Accordingly, an apparent Kd approximately equal to 1 X 10(-7) M was derived for cooperative calcium binding to the activating and transport sites of the nonphosphorylated enzyme. The kinetics of enzyme phosphorylation in the transient state following addition of ATP to enzyme activated with calcium were then resolved by rapid kinetic methods, demonstrating directly that phosphoenzyme formation precedes Pi production, consistent with the phosphoenzyme role as an intermediate in the catalytic cycle. Titration of a low affinity site (Kd approximately equal to 2 X 10(-3) M) with calcium produced inhibition of phosphoenzyme cleavage and favored reversal of the catalytic cycle, indicating that calcium dissociation from the transport sites precedes hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphoenzyme. The two different calcium dissociation constants of the nonphosphorylated and phosphorylated enzyme demonstrate that a phosphorylation-induced reduction of calcium affinity is the basic coupling mechanism of catalysis and active transport, with an energy expenditure of approximately 6 kcal/mol of calcium in standard conditions. From the kinetic point of view, a rate-limiting step is identified with the slow dissociation of calcium from the phosphoenzyme; another relatively slow step following hydrolytic cleavage and preceding recycling of the enzyme is suggested by the occurrence of a presteady state phosphoenzyme overshoot.  相似文献

The temperature-dependence of both the lipid order parameter (SDPH) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity from native and cholesterol-enriched human erythrocyte membranes was investigated. Cholesterol enrichment abolishes an inflection observed around 30 degrees C in the temperature-dependence of native membrane lipid order parameter, whereas the Arrhenius plot of the enzymic activity is substantially unaffected. These results support the view that the breaks in the Arrhenius plot of the enzyme activity are not related to sudden changes of bulk membrane physical state, but arise from a direct effect of temperature on enzyme conformation.  相似文献

K 562 cell acetylcholinesterase (AChE), identifiable by active site labeling with radioactive diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), showed a Mr around 55,000 in both a crude lysate and a purified sample. The K 562 AChE was reactive with one polyclonal and two monoclonal antibodies produced against human erythrocyte AChE. Subcellular localization, investigated by assay on cell fractions, showed that AChE is membrane bound and that it is located on the cell surface as well as on microsomal and Golgi membranes. Biosynthesis of new enzyme molecules, after inactivation of the constitutive AChE with the irreversible inhibitor DFP, allowed us to follow the kinetics of reappearance in the intracellular compartment and at the cell surface (4 and 8 h, respectively).  相似文献

The interaction between calmodulin and the pure, solubilized Ca2+ ATPase from human erythrocyte membranes was examined by kinetic titration. The data indicated that the two proteins interacted in a molar ratio of 1:1 with a Kd of 4.2 nm. The dependence of enzyme activity on calmodulin concentration agreed quantitatively with that predicted by kinetic theory.  相似文献

The substrate saturation and temperature-dependent kinetic properties of soluble and membrane-bound forms of acetylcholinestarase (AChE) from brain and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) from heart and liver were examined. In simultaneous studies these parameters were also measured for AChE in erythrocyte membranes and for BChE in the serum from rat and humans. For both soluble and membrane-bound forms of the enzyme from the three tissues, two components were discernible. In the brain, Km of component I (high affinity) and component II (low affinity) was somewhat higher in membrane-bound form than that of the soluble form components, while the Vmax values were significantly higher by about five fold. In the heart, Km of component II was lower in membrane-bound form than in the soluble form, while Vmax for both the components was about four to six fold higher in the membrane-bound form. In the liver, Vmax was marginally higher for the two components of the membrane-bound enzyme; the Km only of component I was higher by a factor of 2. In the rat erythrocyte membranes three components of AChE were present showing increasing values of Km and Vmax. In contrast, in the human erythrocyte membranes only two components could be detected; the one corresponding to component II of rat erythrocyte membranes was absent. In the rat serum two components of BChE were present while the human serum was found to possess three components. Component I of the human serum was missing in the rat serum. Temperature kinetics studies revealed that the Arrhenius plots were biphasic for most of the systems except for human serum. Membrane binding of the enzyme resulted in decreased energy of activation with shift in phase transition temperature (Tt) to near physiological temperature.  相似文献

Microsomes were isolated from white rabbit muscle and separated into several fractions by centrifugation in a discontinuous sucrose density gradient. Four membrane fractions were obtained namely surface membrane, light, intermediate and heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum. The origin of these microsomal vesicles was investigated by studying biochemical markers of sarcoplasmic reticulum and surface and T-tubular membranes. The transverse tubule derived membranes were further purified by using a discontinuous sucrose density gradient after loading contaminating light sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with calcium phosphate in the presence of ATP. All membrane preparations displayed acetylcholinesterase activity (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7), this being relatively more concentrated in T-tubule membranes than in those derived from sarcoplasmic reticulum. The membrane-bound AChE of unfractioned microsomes notably increased its activity by aging, treatment with detergents and low trypsin concentrations indicating that the enzyme is probably attached to the membrane in an occluded form, the unconstrained enzyme displaying higher activity than the vesicular acetylcholinesterase.Sedimentation analysis of Triton-solubilized AChE from different membrane fractions revealed enzymic multiple forms of 13.5S, 9–10S and 4.5–4.8S, the lightest form being the predominant one in all membrane preparations. Therefore, in both sarcoplasmic reticulum and T-tubule membrane the major component of AChE appears to be a membrane-bound component, probably a G1 form.  相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was immobilized on two different composite membranes constituted by a chemically modified poly-acrylonitrile (PAN) membrane plus a layer of tethered chitosan of different molecular weight, 10 kDa or 400 kDa. AChE was also directly immobilized on a chemically modified PAN membrane with NaOH and ethylenediamine (EDA) without chitosan. To know how the different supports affected the enzyme activity and the kinetic parameters, the AChE activity was studied in the soluble form and in the insoluble form with all the three types of modified PAN membranes. The best performance was obtained by the modified PAN membrane having the chitosan with the lower molecular weight. The results concerning the AChE inhibition by methyl-paraoxon and the subsequent reactivation by pyridine-2-aldoxime methochloride (2-PAM) are presented and discussed. The composite membrane having chitosan with the lower molecular weight appeared to be potentially useful for applications in the field of biosensors.  相似文献

Donepezil is used to treat symptomatically the Alzheimer's disease (AD). This drug is a specific inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), whose main physiological function is to hydrolyze the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. The main objective of this work was to study the effect of donepezil on human erythrocytes as AChE is present in its membrane. For this purpose, human erythrocytes and molecular model of its membrane built-up of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE) were used. The latter correspond to classes of phospholipids present in the outer and inner monolayers of the human erythrocyte membrane, respectively. Our experimental evidences obtained from X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis indicated that donepezil was capable of interacting with both phospholipids. Fluorescence spectroscopy results showed a moderate increase in the fluidity of the hydrophobic tails of DMPC and isolated unsealed human erythrocyte membranes (IUM). On the other hand, results by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical defocusing microscopy (DM) showed that the drug changed the normal biconcave shape of the erythrocytes inducing the formation of stomatocytes (cup-shaped cells). This effect was explained by the incorporation of donepezil molecules into the erythrocyte membrane and interactions with AChE.  相似文献

Effect of 4,4-dyisotiocyanostilben-2,2-disulfonate (DIDS) and 1-ftor-2,4-dinitrobenzol (NDFB) on the rate of phosphate ion transport in erythrocytes, filtrability and thermal stability of erythrocytes and on the structural state of the erythrocyte membrane estimated by UV-fluorescence, PAAG--electrophoresis and measuring of the activity of membrane-bound acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has been studied. Unpenetrating anion transport inhibitor DIDS is shown to induce structural modifications of bands 3 of protein and AChE, while DNFB penetrating the membrane causes a significant reorganization of many membrane proteins (including spectrin) resulting in changes of transport and mechanical properties of erythrocytes.  相似文献

Bovine erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase, a glycosylinositol phospholipid anchored membrane enzyme, was digested with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C and the released glycerol-containing moieties were identified and quantitated. About 96% of the total was alkylacylglycerol, of which sn-1-stearyl-2-stearoylglycerol, sn-1-stearyl-2-oleoylglycerol and sn-1-oleyl-2-stearoylglycerol accounted for 69%, 13% and 10%, respectively. These alkylacylglycerols are in marked contrast to the exclusively diacylglycerol species present in phosphatidylinositol from bovine erythrocyte membranes. This difference suggests that assembly of the membrane anchor of Ebo AChE involves a selected cellular pool of diradylglycerols.  相似文献

The calcium dependence and the time course of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine degradation by sheep erythrocyte membrane suspensions in presence of Triton X-100 were investigated. One enzyme with phospholipase A2 specificity was found to be responsible for both phosphatidyl-ethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine degradation. The localization of this enzyme in the membrane of the sheep erythrocyte was investigated by proteolytic treatment of sealed erythrocyte ghosts from the outside and of ghosts which had both sides of the membrane exposed to chymotrypsin. The inability of sealed ghosts to take up chymotrypsin was followed by flux measurements of [14C]dextran carboxyl previously trapped in the ghosts. No efflux of the marker was found during the proteolytic treatment. By comparing the residual phospholipase activities in the membranes from both ghost preparations, we concluded that the phospholipase is oriented to the exterior of the sheep erythrocyte.  相似文献

Summary The perturbational effects of monovalent and divalent cations on human erythrocyte membranes were analyzed by examining their influence on kinetic and structural characteristics of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) incorporation into the amino groups of protein and phospholipid structural components. The stimulatory effects of monovalent cations on TNBS incorporation, which were size-independent and attributed to nonspecific membrane alterations resulting from ionic strength factors, contrasted with the more pronounced stimulatory properties of divalent cations which were markedly size-dependent. These stimulatory effects of cations on TNBS incorporation were associated with alterations not only in rate but also in activation energy of incorporation. Changes in activation energy produced by divalent cations paralleled their ability to perturb membrane protein components and probably reflected changes in probe permeation. The rate of TNBS incorporation exhibited a dependence on divalent cation ionic radius which paralleled ion-induced perturbations in the labelling of the membrane amino phospholipid phosphatidylethanolamine. Divalent cations differed both in the relative extent and in the characteristics of protein and phospholipid perturbation. Alkaline earth cations behaved as a rather homogeneous group while Ni++, Co++ and Mn++ constituted a second heterogeneous group. The influence of monovalent and divalent cations on the hemolytic behavior of intact erythrocytes paralleled their effects on TNBS incorporation into isolated membranes rather closely. It is suggested that TNBS incorporation may provide a valuable means of analyzing functionally relevant cation-induced alterations in biological membranes in general.  相似文献
