Two transport systems for glucose were detected: a high affinity system with a Km of 27 muM, and a low affinity system with a Km of 3.3 mM. The high affinity system transported glucose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (Km = 26 muM), 3-O-methylglucose (Km = 19 muM), D-glucosamine (Km = 652 muM), D-fructose (Km = 2.3 mM) and L-sorbose (Km = 2.2 mM). All sugars were accumulated against concentration gradients. The high affinity system was strongly or completely inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, quercetin, 2,4-dinitrophenol and sodium azide. The system had a distinct pH optimum (7.4) and optimum temperature (45 degrees C). The low affinity system transported glucose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (Km = 7.5 mM), and 3-O-methylglucose (Km = 1.5 mM). Accumulation again occurred against a concentration gradient. The low affinity system was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, quercetin and 2,4-dinitrophenol, but not by sodium azide. The rate of uptake by the low affinity system was constant over a wide temperature range (30--50 degrees C) and was not much affected by pH; but as the pH of the medium was altered from 4.5 to 8.9 a co-ordinated increase in affinity for 2-deoxy-D-glucose (from 52.1 mM to 0.3 mM) and decrease in maximum velocity (by a factor of five) occurred. Both uptake systems were present insporelings germinated in media containing sodium acetate as sole carbon source. Only the low affinity system could initially be demonstrated in glucose-grown tissue, although the high affinity system was restored by starvation inglucose-free medium. The half-ti me for restoration of high affinity activity was 3.5 min and the process was unaffected by cycloheximide. Addition of glucose to an acetate-grown culture inactivated the high affinity system with a half-life of 5--7.5 s. Addition of cycloheximide to an acetate-grown culture caused decay of the high affinity system with a half-life of 80 min. Regulation is thus thought to depend on modulation of protein activity rather than synthesis, and the kinetics of glucose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose and 3-O-methylglucose uptake would be consistent with there being a single carrier showing negative co-operativity. Analysis of transport defective mutants revealed defects in both transport systems although the mutants used were alleles of a single gene. It is concluded that this gene (the ftr cistron) is the structural gene for an allosteric molecule which serves both transport systems. 相似文献

We examined the inheritance of 5-methylcytosine residues at a centromere-linked locus in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus. Although methylated and unmethylated tracts were inherited both mitotically and meiotically the lengths of these tracts were variable. This variation was not confined to any one phase of the life cycle of the organism, and it usually involved the simultaneous de novo methylation of at least four HpaII-MspI sites. We also found that the higher levels of methylation at this locus were transmitted through meiosis, regardless of the level of methylation of the homologous chromosome. 相似文献

DNA polymerase activity was studied in Coprinus cinereus, a basidiomycete fungus. Only one from of the enzyme could be demonstrated, whether by affinity or ion-exchange chromatography; this enzyme had a molecular weight of 185000 on Sephadex G-200, and was inhibited by mercaptoethanol. Coprinus, a representative of the most advanced type of the filamentous fungi, resembles other eukaryotic micro-organisms in its lack of a mammalian beta-type DNA polymerase. The properties of the polymerase are compared with those of two other fungi, and found to resemble most closely the yeast polymerase A in Mg2+ requirements and template preference. 相似文献

We have developed a simple and efficient transformation system for the agaric fungus, Coprinus cinereus. Protoplasts were prepared from asexual spores that harbor one or two mutations in the structural gene for tryptophan synthetase. The protoplasts can be stably transformed using the cloned Coprinus gene at a frequency of 1 in 10(4) viable protoplasts. A variety of molecular events accompanies the formation of stable transformants, including insertion of the transforming DNA at the homologous locus. The transforming DNA is stable through cell division, mating, fruiting body formation, and meiosis. 相似文献

Restriction enzyme-mediated DNA integration (REMI) has recently received attention as a new technique for the generation of mutants by transformation in fungi. Here we analyse this method in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus using the homologous pab1 gene as a selectable marker and the restriction enzymes BamHI, EcoRI and PstI. Addition of restriction enzymes to transformation mixtures results in an earlier appearance of transformants and influences transformation rates in an enzyme- and concentration-dependent manner. Low concentrations of restriction enzyme result in increased numbers of transformants compared to no addition of enzymes. Transformation rates decrease with higher enzyme concentrations. If protoplasts are made from cells stored in the cold, the transformation rates drop drastically even in the presence of low amounts of enzyme. In several transformants, plasmid integration directly correlated with the action of restriction enzyme at random chromosomal restriction sites. In some cases, restriction enzymes appear to reduce the number of integration events per transformant. Simultaneously, mutation rates can be enhanced due to the presence of restriction enzymes. Although restriction enzymes clearly promote plasmid integration into the host genome they also have cytotoxic and possibly mutagenic effects that result from processes other than plasmid integration. In consequence, for any given enzyme used in REMI mutagenesis, the enzyme concentration that gives the highest number of transformants must be defined experimentally. Such optimal transformation conditions should give the highest probability of obtaining mutations caused by a single restriction enzyme-mediated integration of the selection marker. 相似文献

5-Fluoroindole (5FI) was more inhibitory than 5-fluorotryptophan (5FT) to Coprinus cinereus. A mutant blocked in the conversion of indole to tryptophan, but not one blocked earlier in the tryptophan pathway, was resistant to 5FI. This is consistent with the hypothesis that 5FI was converted in vivo to 5FT which inhibited growth. 相似文献

We have used fluorescence in situ hybridization to examine homolog pairing during the synchronous meiosis of the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus. Using spread preparations of meiotic nuclei, we confirmed previous studies that showed that at 6 h post-karyogamy essentially
all meiotic nuclei are in pachytene. We found that homolog pairing occurs rapidly after karyogamy, that a 1 Mb chromosome
does not associate more quickly than a 2.5 Mb chromosome, and that interstitial, single-copy sites can associate stably prior
to nucleolar fusion. Analysis of two probes for the same pair of homologs revealed that by 4 h after karyogamy each chromosome
examined was at least partially paired in all meiotic cells. In addition, these studies showed that chromatin condensation
increases after pairing and that chromatin shows stable compaction at pachytene.

Coprinus cinereus has two main types of mycelia, the asexual monokaryon and the sexual dikaryon, formed by fusion of compatible monokaryons. Syngamy (plasmogamy) and karyogamy are spatially and temporally separated, which is typical for basidiomycetous fungi. This property of the dikaryon enables an easy exchange of nuclear partners in further dikaryotic-monokaryotic and dikaryotic-dikaryotic mycelial fusions. Fruiting bodies normally develop on the dikaryon, and the cytological process of fruiting-body development has been described in its principles. Within the specialized basidia, present within the gills of the fruiting bodies, karyogamy occurs in a synchronized manner. It is directly followed by meiosis and by the production of the meiotic basidiospores. The synchrony of karyogamy and meiosis has made the fungus a classical object to study meiotic cytology and recombination. Several genes involved in these processes have been identified. Both monokaryons and dikaryons can form multicellular resting bodies (sclerotia) and different types of mitotic spores, the small uninucleate aerial oidia, and, within submerged mycelium, the large thick-walled chlamydospores. The decision about whether a structure will be formed is made on the basis of environmental signals (light, temperature, humidity, and nutrients). Of the intrinsic factors that control development, the products of the two mating type loci are most important. Mutant complementation and PCR approaches identified further genes which possibly link the two mating-type pathways with each other and with nutritional regulation, for example with the cAMP signaling pathway. Among genes specifically expressed within the fruiting body are those for two galectins, beta-galactoside binding lectins that probably act in hyphal aggregation. These genes serve as molecular markers to study development in wild-type and mutant strains. The isolation of genes for potential non-DNA methyltransferases, needed for tissue formation within the fruiting body, promises the discovery of new signaling pathways, possibly involving secondary fungal metabolites. 相似文献

Abstract The effect of phospholipids on chitin synthase activity has been studied with digitonin-solubilized and partially purified preparations from Coprinus cinereus . When cholate was used as detergent, it inhibited enzyme activity, but this inhibition was reversed by increasing concentrations of phospholipids. Preincubation with cholate and phospholipid caused irreversible loss of activity. When sonicated with solubilized enzyme preparation, dimyristoyl phosphatidyl choline strongly stimulated activity, while dioleoyl phosphatidyl choline was inhibitory. The Arrhenius plot of the effect of temperature on enzyme activity contained breaks, characteristic of a membrane-bound enzyme. It is suggested that chitin synthase requires an annulus of phospholipids for activity. 相似文献

Using video recordings we have completed the first kinetic analysis of mushroom stem gravitropism. The stem became gravireceptive after completion of meiosis, beginning to bend within 30 minutes of being placed horizontal. Stem bending first occurred in the apical 15% of its length, then the position of the bend moved rapidly towards the base, traversing 40% of stem length in 2.5 h. Meanwhile, the stem elongated by 25%, mostly in its upper half but also in basal regions. If the apex was pinned horizontally the stem base was elevated but overshot the vertical, often curling through more than 300 degrees. When the base was pinned to the horizontal (considered analogous to the normal situation), 90% of the initial bend was compensated as the stem brought its apex accurately upright, rarely overshooting the vertical. The apex had to be free to move for this curvature compensation to occur. Stems transferred to a clinostat after some minutes gravistimulation showed curvature which increased with the length of initial gravistimulation, indicating that continued exposure to the unilateral gravity vector was necessary for continued bending. Such gravistimulated stems which bent on the clinostat subsequently relaxed back towards their original orientation. Reaction kinetics were unaffected by submergence in water, suggesting that mechanical events do not contribute, but submerged stems bent first at the base rather than apex. In air, the gravitropic bend appeared first near the apex and then moved towards the base, suggesting basipetal movement of a signal. In water, the pattern of initial bending was changed (from apex to base) without effect on kinetics. Taken together these results suggest that bending is induced by a diffusing chemical growth factor (whose extracellular propagation is enhanced under water) which emanates from the apical zone of the stem. The apex is also responsible for regulating compensation of the bend so as to bring the tip to the vertical. The nature of this latter stimulus is unknown but it is polarized (the apex must be free to move for the compensation to occur) and it may not require reference to the unilateral gravity vector. 相似文献

A Coprinus cinereus peroxidase (CiP) was successfully expressed by the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. The 1095-bp gene encoding peroxidase from C. cinereus was cloned with a highly inducible alcohol oxidase (AOX1) promoter and integrated into the genome of P. pastoris. The recombinant CiP (rCiP) fused with the α-mating factor pre-pro leader sequence derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae accumulated neither inside the cell nor within the wall, and were efficiently secreted into the culture medium. SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis revealed that the rCiP was not hyper-glycosylated and its α-factor signal sequence was correctly processed. It was also found that the kinetic properties of rCiP were similar to those of native CiP. In order to produce large amounts of rCiP, the high cell density cultivation of recombinant P. pastoris was carried out in a fermentor with fed-batch mode. The peroxidase activity obtained in a 5 l fermentor cultivation became about 6 times (1200 U/ml) higher than that in shake-flask cultures (200 U/ml). 相似文献

We have characterized the phenotypes of three rad12 mutants of the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus, which were isolated on the basis of sensitivity to ionizing radiation. Electron microscopic studies of meiotic nuclear spreads showed that all three rad12 mutants are defective in chromosomal synapsis. For rad12-1 and rad12-4, very limited assembly of the synaptonemal complex occurs. The phenotype of rad12-15 is less severe and longer stretches of synapsed chromosomes are formed. However, for all three alleles mutant nuclei arrest in a diffuse state with little synaptonemal complex structure. Observations made of spreads of acridine orange-stained meiotic nuclei correlated with the electron microscopic data. In rad12 strains, chromosomes condense but do not pair, and they later arrest in a decondensed state; very few rad12 cells enter metaphase I. Homozygous dikaryons of rad12 mutants produce fruiting bodies with significantly fewer basidiospores than are found in wild-type dikaryons. The viability of these spores is greatly reduced: all spores produced by rad12-1 and rad12-4 mushrooms fail to germinate, while only 16% of rad12-15 spores are viable. Recombination within the tract of the ribosomal RNA gene repeats was not significantly different in the mutants when compared with a wild-type congenic control. Quantitative measurements of oidial survival indicate that all three rad12 alleles are sensitive to gamma radiation but insensitive to UV radiation relative to wild-type strains. 相似文献
