The effect of harmaline on rabbit brush border sucrase has been studied at pH 6.8. An initial analysis in classical kinetic terms revealed harmaline to be a fully competitive inhibitor of the substrate, sucrose. In spite of this result however, the following hypothesis has been tested. Harmaline, which is positively charged in the physiological range of pH, might in fact compete, not directly with the substrate site, but rather with an allosterically-related sodium-binding site which has been postulated to be involved in the activation of sucrase by the alkali-metal ions (Mahmood and Alvarado, Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 168, 585, 1975). Because of its size, harmaline, when bound to the metal site, could at least partially overlap with the substrate site, thereby behaving as if it were an authentic fully competitive inhibitor of the substrate. This hypothesis appears to be confirmed by the fact that the alkali metals can completely reverse the inhibition caused by harmaline. 相似文献

Current concepts of pH-dependent enzyme function are expanded to consider enzymes with up to four key proton families. In an earlier paper the authors extended classical theory to explain the existence, in the acid ionization reaction, of two functionally distinct, V and K, proton families, exemplified by the 1988 sucrase three-proton-families model of Vasseur et al. They now propose that enzymes having two distinguishable proton families at each side of the pH-activity curves exist in nature although there is no previously published evidence of their existence. The resulting, more general, four-proton-families model is treated as a useful framework from which submodels can be derived by simplification, the simplest being the 1911 linear model of Michaelis and Davidsohn, which took into account two proton families out of the theoretical maximum of four proposed here. It is shown that whether a three-proton-families or a four-proton-families model can explain sucrase better is not merely a question of theory but also involves the practical question of having enough data, at each side of the pH spectrum, to permit making an unequivocal choice between the two alternatives. The paper concludes with a discussion of substrate-induced pK shifts according to both models. 相似文献

Summary Studies were performed to characterize the binding1 of bile acids to intestinal brush border membranes. Total14C-taurodeoxycholate binding was: 1) similar for brush borders prepared from jejunum and ileum, 2) linear with respect to monomer concentration, 3) uninhibited by a structural analog, and 4) not depressed by boiling or trypsin. A linear relationship existed between binding and the number of hydrogen bonds formed by a bile acid and the slope of the line corresponded to F of 300 cal/mol. The binding of bile acids to the 105,000×g supernatant fraction of sonicated brush borders was similar to the binding of phospholipid liposomes using gel chromatography. These data suggest that: 1) the kinetics and characteristics of binding of bile acid to ileal brush borders do not reflect the kinetics and characteristics of active ileal transport previously obtained in whole tissue preparations, but instead reflect the kinetics and characteristics of passive jejunal transport; 2) a determinant of binding is hydrogen bonding with water; 3) isolated intact brush borders are relatively polar membranes; and 4) binding to solubilized brush borders may represent partitioning between the aqueous phase and membrane lipid.Part of this work was presented at the National Meeting of the American Federation for Clinical Research, May 2, 1976, Atlantic City, New Jersey. 相似文献

The mammalian genome contains 20-30 genes encoding a family of actins. To date, however, only six proteins (four muscle and two nonmuscle isoforms) encoded by this multigene complex have been identified. We have isolated two actins from the brush border of rat intestinal epithelial cells that have isoelectric points and N-terminal peptides characteristic of the cytoplasmic beta- and gamma-actins. However, using a panel of actin-specific monoclonal antibodies, we show that these actins contain a set of epitopes that distinguishes them from any of the known cytoplasmic or muscle isoforms. These unique actins share features of both the nonmuscle and muscle isoforms, suggesting that they represent an intermediate in the evolution of the specialized muscle actins. 相似文献

Epithelial cells of the small intestine, like those of other internal organs, contain intermediate-sized filaments immunologically related to epidermal prekeratin which are especially concentrated in the cell apex. Brush-order fractions were isolated from rat small intestine, and apical tonofilaments attached to desmosomal plaques and terminal web residues were prepared therefrom by extraction in high salt (1.5 M KCl) buffer and Triton X-100. The structure of these filaments was indistinguishable from that of epidermal tonofilaments and, as with epidermal prekeratin, filaments could be reconstituted from solubilized, denatured intestinal tonofilament protein. On SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of proteins of the extracted desmosome-tonofilament fractions, a number of typical brush-border proteins were absent or reduced, and enrichment of three major polypeptides of Mr 55,000, 48,000, and 40,000 was noted. On two- dimensional gel electrophoresis, the three enriched major polypeptides usually appeared as pairs of isoelectric variants, and the two smaller components (Mr 48,000, and 40,000) were relatively acidic (isoelectric pH values of 5.40 and below), compared to the Mr 55,000 protein which focused at pH values higher than 6.4. The tonofilament proteins were shown to be immunologically related to epidermal prekeratin by immunoreplica and blotting techniques using antibodies to bovine epidermal prekeratins. Similar major polypeptides were found in desmosome-attached tonofilaments from small intestine of mouse and cow. However, comparisons with epidermal tissues of cow and rat showed that all major polypeptides of intestinal tonofilaments were different from the major prekeratin polypeptides of epidermal tonofilaments. The results present the first analysis of a defined fraction of tonofilaments from a nonepidermal cell. The data indicate that structurally identical tonofilaments can be formed, in different types of cells, by different polypeptides of the cytokeratin family of proteins and that tonofilaments of various epithelia display tissue- specific patterns of their protein subunits. 相似文献

gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase, known to be localized in the proximal tubule cell brush border in the rat, is a membrane-bound enzyme which transfers the gamma-glutamyl moiety of glutathione or its analogue gamma-glutamyl-p-nitroanilide to an amino acid or dipeptide acceptor. Brush borders were isolated from the kidneys of newborn and adult Sprague-Dawley rats and assayed for gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase activity. There is an increase in specific activity in the brush border with maturation. Newborn and adult brush border preparations exhibit similar pH optima, substrate affinities, apparent Km values, patterns of heat inactivation, inhibition by glutathione, and migration on polyacrylamide gels. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of a deoxycholate extract of brush border proteins and subsequent reaction with substrate within the gel reveal the presence of two bands, suggesting the presence of two forms of gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase in the rat kidney brush border. 相似文献

The existence of a membrane-bound HCO3-stimulated ATPase in intestinal mucosa is controversial. A crude brush border fraction of rat small intestinal homogenates contained HCO3-ATPase activity which was inhibited by preincubation with 3 mM EDTA. Alkaline phosphatase activity of this preparation was also inhibited in a parallel, time-dependent fashion by preincubation with EDTA. When 5 mM ZnSO4 accompanied 3 mM EDTA in the preincubation mix, preservation of both enzyme activities occurred, demonstrating a requirement of Zn for the activity of both these phosphatases. These studies support the earlier contention that HCO3-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities may be different properties of the same enzyme, and raise the possibility that the ATPase could play a role in intestinal ion transport. The failure to identify a membrane-bound HCO3-ATPase by other workers could be due to the exposure of EDTA which occurred in their tissue preparation. 相似文献

Molecular organization of the intestinal brush border 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The brush border of enterocytes represents one of the more specialized apical poles of epithelial cells. It is formed by particularly well-developed apical plasma membrane microvilli, whose shape is ensured by a highly organized cytoskeleton. The molecular organization of the cytoskeleton is described. Whereas several cytoskeleton proteins are ubiquitous, villin is highly specific for intestinal cells and can be used as a differentiation marker of these cells. The major glycoproteins, in particular hydrolases, of the brush border membrane have been characterized. They have many common structural features, in particular their mode of integration into the membrane by their N-terminal hydrophobic sequences that also plays the role of the 'signal peptide' responsible for their co-translational insertions into the endoplasmic reticulum. Studies on the biosynthesis and intracellular pathway of aminopeptidase N strongly suggest that sorting of apical and basolateral glycoproteins could occur after their integration into the basolateral domain. 相似文献

To assess intestinal lipid rafts functions through the characterization of their protein markers, we have isolated lipid rafts of rat mucosa either from the total membrane or purified brush-border membrane (BBM) by sucrose gradient fractionation after detergent treatment. In both membrane preparations, the floating fractions (4-5) were enriched in cholesterol, ganglioside GM1, and N aminopeptidase (NAP) known as intestinal lipid rafts markers. Based on MALDI-TOF/MS identification and simultaneous detection by immunoblotting, 12 proteins from BBM cleared from contaminants were selected as rafts markers. These proteins include several signaling/trafficking proteins belonging to the G protein family and the annexins as well as GPI-anchored proteins. Remarkably GP2, previously described as the pancreatic granule GPI-anchored protein, was found in intestinal lipid rafts. The proteomic strategy assayed on the intestine leads to the characterization of known (NAP, alkaline phosphatase, dipeptidyl aminopeptidase, annexin II, and galectin-4) and new (GP2, annexin IV, XIIIb, Galpha(q), Galpha(11), glutamate receptor, and GPCR 7) lipid rafts markers. Together our results indicate that some digestive enzymes, trafficking and signaling proteins may be functionally distributed in the intestine lipid rafts. 相似文献

The uptake of glycine in osmotically active brush border membrane vesicles (obtained by the Mg++ precipitation method) has been studied and a partial characterization of its transport system has been established. The glycine uptake in these vesicles was stimulated by the presence of sodium and in the presence of an inwardly directed Na+ -gradient glycine was accumulated inside the vesicles. The effect of Na+ was specific; other monovalent cation as Li+, K+, Rb+ and choline were uneffective in the stimulation of glycine uptake, under the same experimental conditions. Preliminary experiments show an important role of some anions on the glycine uptake. A strong inhibition in the uptake rate was found when the measurements were carried out in the presence of sodium cyclamate, while in the presence of NaSCN the measured uptake values were similar to those observed in the presence of NaCl. 相似文献

Purified rabbit intestinal brush border membrane vesicles transport glycyl-L-proline into an osmotically responsive intravesicular space by a Na+- independent, carrier-mediated process. With short incubation, transport occurs mostly as the intact dipeptide, followed by hydrolysis. Pretreatment of the vesicles with papain results in a 60% reduction of L-alanine transport while glycyl-L-proline transport is stimulated by 40%. Papain treatment does not change the intravesicular volume, nor does it increase membrane permeability. Dipeptide transport into papain treated vesicles remains completely Na+- independent as it is in the control vesicles. Many dipeptides inhibit glycyl-L-proline transport into papain treated vesicles both in the presence and absence of a Na+ gradient. 相似文献

Duodenal brush border intestinal alkaline phosphatase activity affects bicarbonate secretion in rats
Akiba Y Mizumori M Guth PH Engel E Kaunitz JD 《American journal of physiology. Gastrointestinal and liver physiology》2007,293(6):G1223-G1233
We hypothesized that duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion alkalinizes the microclimate surrounding intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP), increasing its activity. We measured AP activity in rat duodenum in situ in frozen sections with the fluorogenic substrate ELF-97 phosphate and measured duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion with a pH-stat in perfused duodenal loops. We examined the effects of the IAP inhibitors L-cysteine or L-phenylalanine (0.1-10 mM) or the tissue nonspecific AP inhibitor levamisole (0.1-10 mM) on AP activity in vitro and on acid-induced duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion in vivo. AP activity was the highest in the duodenal brush border, decreasing longitudinally to the large intestine with no activity in stomach. Villous surface AP activity measured in vivo was enhanced by PGE(2) intravenously and inhibited by luminal L-cysteine. Furthermore, incubation with a pH 2.2 solution reduced AP activity in vivo, whereas pretreatment with the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) inhibitor CFTR(inh)-172 abolished AP activity at pH 2.2. L-Cysteine and L-phenylalanine enhanced acid-augmented duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretion. The nonselective P2 receptor antagonist suramin (1 mM) reduced acid-induced HCO(3)(-) secretion. Moreover, L-cysteine or the competitive AP inhibitor glycerol phosphate (10 mM) increased HCO(3)(-) secretion, inhibited by suramin. In conclusion, enhancement of the duodenal HCO(3)(-) secretory rate increased AP activity, whereas inhibition of AP activity increased the HCO(3)(-) secretory rate. These data support our hypothesis that HCO(3)(-) secretion increases AP activity by increasing local pH at its catalytic site and that AP hydrolyzes endogenous luminal phosphates, presumably ATP, which increases HCO(3)(-) secretion via activation of P2 receptors. 相似文献
