Fructose-1,6-(bis)phosphate aldolase is a ubiquitous enzyme that catalyzes the reversible aldol cleavage of fructose-1,6-(bis)phosphate and fructose 1-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and either glyceral-dehyde-3-phosphate or glyceraldehyde, respectively. Vertebrate aldolases exist as three isozymes with different tissue distributions and kinetics: aldolase A (muscle and red blood cell), aldolase B (liver, kidney, and small intestine), and aldolase C (brain and neuronal tissue). The structures of human aldolases A and B are known and herein we report the first structure of the human aldolase C, solved by X-ray crystallography at 3.0 A resolution. Structural differences between the isozymes were expected to account for isozyme-specific activity. However, the structures of isozymes A, B, and C are the same in their overall fold and active site structure. The subtle changes observed in active site residues Arg42, Lys146, and Arg303 are insufficient to completely account for the tissue-specific isozymic differences. Consequently, the structural analysis has been extended to the isozyme-specific residues (ISRs), those residues conserved among paralogs. A complete analysis of the ISRs in the context of this structure demonstrates that in several cases an amino acid residue that is conserved among aldolase C orthologs prevents an interaction that occurs in paralogs. In addition, the structure confirms the clustering of ISRs into discrete patches on the surface and reveals the existence in aldolase C of a patch of electronegative residues localized near the C terminus. Together, these structural changes highlight the differences required for the tissue and kinetic specificity among aldolase isozymes. 相似文献

A study of aldolases in rat hepatoma clones and subclones has revealed that they synthesize all three forms of aldolase monomers: A (the ubiquitous glycolytic isozyme), B (the form characteristic of the liver) and C, and that in vitro–in vivo passage results in a reversible modulation in aldolase A activity. Three kinds of somatic hybrids, between rat hepatoma cells and either mouse fibroblasts or rat epithelial cells, have been studied. In each case, aldolase B, found only in the hepatoma parent, was absent in the hybrid cells. The absence of aldolase B in the somatic hybrids seems not to be due to trivial factors (species differences, inactivation of all hepatoma aldolase genes, increase in ploidy or loss of chromosomes); it is concluded that extinction of this differentiated function of the hepatoma parent reflects a genetic regulatory phenomenon. 相似文献

Two fructose-bisphosphate aldolases(EC 4.1.2.13) from Klebsormidium flaccidum Silver, Mattox and Black-well were purified by affinity elution from phosphocellulose. The two enzymes were subsequently separated by HPLC on an anion-exchange column (QAE-silica). The aldolase eluting first represented 5% of the total activity; the other aldolase represented the remaining activity. The activity of the enzymes was not reduced by the presence of 1 mM EDTA or increased by 0.1 mM Zn2+, establishing their character as class I type (Me2+ independent) aldolases. The Km(fructose-1,6-bisphosphate) values were 1.7 and 34.7 μM for the enzyme eluting first and second, respectively, from the QAE-silica column. The subunit molecular masses, as determined by SDS-PACE, were 40.5 and 37 kD; the specific activities of the purified enzymes were 7.9 and 24.7 · mg?1 protein, respectively. The two aldolases of K. flaccidum are homologous to the cytosol and chloroplast specific isoenzymes of higher plants by several criteria and are therefore probably located in the same cellular compartments in K. flaccidum. The Km and specific activity for the chloroplast aldolase of K. flaccidum are three times higher than for the chloroplast aldolase of higher plants, a remarkable difference. Immunotitration with specific antisera against the chloroplast aldolase of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Dangeard and spinach showed that the chloroplast aldolase of K. flaccidum was immunochemically intermediate in structure to the respective aldolases of C. reinhardtii and higher plants. K. flaccidum is the second species of Charophyceae (besides Chara foetida Braun) with two class I aldolases as in higher plants whereas two species of Chlorophyceae have only one class I aldolase and, under some conditions, an additional class II (Me2+ dependent) aldolase. Thus, aldolases may turn out, in addition to the known enzymes of glycolate conversion and urea degradation, be a novel enzyme system to evaluate algal evolution along with cytological features. 相似文献

We previously cloned cDNAs for all the members (A, B and C) of Xenopus aldolase gene family, and using in vitro transcribed RNAs as references, performed quantitative studies of the expression of three aldolase mRNAs in embryos and adult tissues. A Xenopus egg contains ca. 60 pg aldolase A mRNA and ca. 45 pg aldolase C mRNA, but contains only ca. 1.5 pg aldolase B mRNA. The percent composition of three aldolase mRNAs (A:B:C) changes from 56:1.5:42.5 (fertilized egg) to 54:10:36 (gastrula), to 71:14.5:14.5 (neurula) and to 73:20:7 (tadpole) during development. These results are compatible with the previous results of zymogram analysis that aldolases A and C are the major aldolases in early embryos, whose development proceeds depending on yolk as the only energy source. Aldolase B mRNA is expressed only late in development in tissues such as pronephros, liver rudiment and proctodeum which are necessary for the future dietary fructose metabolism, and the expression pattern is consistent to that in adult tissues. We also show that three aldolase genes are localized on different chromosomes as single copy genes. 相似文献

Vertebrate fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase exists as three isozymes (A, B, and C) that demonstrate kinetic properties that are consistent with their physiological role and tissue-specific expression. The isozymes demonstrate specific substrate cleavage efficiencies along with differences in the ability to interact with other proteins; however, it is unknown how these differences are conferred. An alignment of 21 known vertebrate aldolase sequences was used to identify all of the amino acids that are specific to each isozyme, or isozyme-specific residues (ISRs). The location of ISRs on the tertiary and quaternary structures of aldolase reveals that ISRs are found largely on the surface (24 out of 27) and are all outside of hydrogen bonding distance to any active site residue. Moreover, ISRs cluster into two patches on the surface of aldolase with one of these patches, the terminal surface patch, overlapping with the actin-binding site of aldolase A and overlapping an area of higher than average temperature factors derived from the x-ray crystal structures of the isozymes. The other patch, the distal surface patch, comprises an area with a different electrostatic surface potential when comparing isozymes. Despite their location distal to the active site, swapping ISRs between aldolase A and B by multiple site mutagenesis on recombinant expression plasmids is sufficient to convert the kinetic properties of aldolase A to those of aldolase B. This implies that ISRs influence catalysis via changes that alter the structure of the active site from a distance or via changes that alter the interaction of the mobile C-terminal portion with the active site. The methods used in the identification and analysis of ISRs discussed here can be applied to other protein families to reveal functionally relevant residue clusters not accessible by conventional primary sequence alignment methods. 相似文献

We have looked for the synthesis of fetal aldolases A and C during the early stages of hepatocarcinogenesis induced by 3′-methyl-4-(dimethylamino) azobenzene in the rat. Using indirect immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence techniques we show that oval and transitional cells are the main cellular sites of fetal aldolases A and C production while hepatocytes only synthesize aldolase B. The synthesis of aldolases A and C was confirmed by electrophoresis analysis. These results indicate that different cell types are involved in fetal aldolase production during the early stages of azo-dye feeding and during regeneration after carbon tetrachloride intoxication where the synthesis of these isozymes is restricted to sinusoïdal cells. 相似文献

Aldolases are a specific group of lyases that catalyze the reversible stereoselective addition of a donor compound (nucleophile) onto an acceptor compound (electrophile). Whereas most aldolases are specific for their donor compound in the aldolization reaction, they often tolerate a wide range of aldehydes as acceptor compounds. C–C bonding by aldolases creates stereocenters in the resulting aldol products. This makes aldolases interesting tools for asymmetric syntheses of rare sugars or sugar-derived compounds as iminocyclitols, statins, epothilones, and sialic acids. Besides the well-known fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase, other aldolases of microbial origin have attracted the interest of synthetic bio-organic chemists in recent years. These are either other dihydroxyacetone phosphate aldolases or aldolases depending on pyruvate/phosphoenolpyruvate, glycine, or acetaldehyde as donor substrate. Recently, an aldolase that accepts dihydroxyacetone or hydroxyacetone as a donor was described. A further enlargement of the arsenal of available chemoenzymatic tools can be achieved through screening for novel aldolase activities and directed evolution of existing aldolases to alter their substrate- or stereospecifities. We give an update of work on aldolases, with an emphasis on microbial aldolases. 相似文献

Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) is a recessively inherited disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by impaired function of human liver aldolase (B isoform). 25 enzyme-impairing mutations have been identified in the aldolase B gene. We have studied the HFI-related mutant recombinant proteins W147R, A149P, A174D, L256P, N334K and delta6ex6 in relation to aldolase B function and structure using kinetic assays and molecular graphics analysis. We found that these mutations affect aldolase B function by decreasing substrate affinity, maximal velocity and/or enzyme stability. Finally, the functional and structural analyses of the non-natural mutant Q354E provide insight into the catalytic role of Arg(303), whose natural mutants are associated to HFI. 相似文献

Phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11) and aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) have been highly purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by improved protocols. Partitioning of the enzymes in aqueous polymer two-phase systems was used to detect complex formation. The partition of each enzyme was found to be affected by the presence of the other enzyme. AMP affected the partition of the individual enzymes as well as the mixture of the two. The activities of the respective enzymes were stimulated in the putative complex in an AMP-dependent manner. Two strictly conserved residues belonging to an acidic surface loop of class II aldolases, are a potential site for electrostatic interaction with the positively charged regions close to the active site in phosphofructokinase. 相似文献

E. coli expression plasmids for human aldolases A and B (EC 4.1.2.13) have been constructed from the pIN-III expression vector and their cDNAs, and expressed in E. coli strain JM83. Enzymatically active forms of human aldolase have been generated in the cells when transfected with either pHAA47, a human aldolase A expression plasmid, or pHAB 141, a human aldolase B expression plasmid. These enzymes are indistinguishable from authentic enzymes with respect to molecular size, amino acid sequences at the NH2- and COOH-terminal regions, the Km for substrate, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and the activity ratio of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate/fructose 1-phosphate (FDP/F1P), although net electric charge and the Km for FDP of synthetic aldolase B differed from those for a previously reported human liver aldolase B. In addition, both the expressed aldolases A and B complement the temperature-sensitive phenotype of the aldolase mutant of E. coli h8. These data argue that the expressed aldolases are structurally and functionally similar to the authentic human aldolases, and would provide a system for analysis of the structure-function relationship of human aldolases A and B. 相似文献

Fructaldolases (EC 4.1.2.13) are ancient enzymes of glycolysis that catalyze the reversible cleavage of phosphofructose esters into cognate triose (phosphates). Three vertebrate isozymes of Class I aldolase have arisen by gene duplication and display distinct activity profiles with fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and with fructose 1-phosphate. We describe the biochemical and biophysical characterization of seven natural human aldolase B variants, identified in patients suffering from hereditary fructose intolerance and expressed as recombinant proteins in E. coli, from which they were purified to homogeneity. The mutant aldolases were all missense variants and could be classified into two principal groups: catalytic mutants, with retained tetrameric structure but altered kinetic properties (W147R, R303W, and A337V), and structural mutants, in which the homotetramers readily dissociate into subunits with greatly impaired enzymatic activity (A149P, A174D, L256P, and N334K). Investigation of these two classes of mutant enzyme suggests that the integrity of the quaternary structure of aldolase B is critical for maintaining its full catalytic function. 相似文献

Aldolase was purified from human skeletal muscle and human liver by techniques capable of processing large quantities (10-20kg) of tissue. The methods used also proved convenient for isolating aldolase on a large scale from other mammalian and avian sources. Aldolase from both human liver and muscle was crystallized; each gave two crystalline forms, depending on the conditions of crystallization. X-ray studies on the muscle aldolase crystals suggest a close structural similarity between human and rabbit muscle aldolase. Aldolases from human muscle and liver have similar pH optima and pH stability but their stability to heat treatment differs. The effect of heat on the enzymes may therefore provide an easy means of distinguishing them. The kinetic constants K(m) and k(cat.) for these aldolases are similar to other mammalian aldolases. Amino acid analyses and tryptic peptide ;mapping' show that the primary structures of the two aldolases differ greatly. 相似文献

Complementary DNA sequence of anaerobically induced cytoplasmic maize aldolase was expressed under control of the tac promoter sequence in Escherichia coli using the pKK223-3 plasmid as a vehicle. Levels of recombinant protein expressed exceeded 20 mg of soluble aldolase per liter of culture. The purified recombinant enzyme displayed the expected molecular weight and tetrameric subunit assembly on the basis of mobilities on denaturing electrophoretic gels and gel filtration, respectively. Sequencing of the NH2 terminus and amino acid composition analysis of the recombinant protein including COOH-terminal peptides agreed with the cDNA sequence. Partial kinetic characterization based on product inhibition studies was consistent with the ordered uni-bi reaction mechanism expected of aldolases. Turnover with respect to substrates Fru-1,6-P2 and Fru-1-P by the recombinant enzyme is the highest reported to date for class I aldolases. Fru-1,6-P2 cleavage rate by recombinant cytoplasmic maize enzyme is three times greater than that of the chloroplast enzyme. Fru-1-P cleavage is 8-fold greater than that of the rabbit liver isozyme and 20-fold greater than that of the rabbit muscle isozyme to which maize aldolase exhibits the greatest homology. The implications of such a high Fru-1-P turnover on carbohydrate utilization under anaerobiosis is discussed. 相似文献

In pea (Pisum sativum), the protein-lysine methyltransferase (PsLSMT) catalyzes the trimethylation of Lys-14 in the large subunit (LS) of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), the enzyme catalyzing the CO(2) fixation step during photosynthesis. Homologs of PsLSMT, herein referred to as LSMT-like enzymes, are found in all plant genomes, but methylation of LS Rubisco is not universal in the plant kingdom, suggesting a species-specific protein substrate specificity of the methyltransferase. In this study, we report the biochemical characterization of the LSMT-like enzyme from Arabidopsis thaliana (AtLSMT-L), with a focus on its substrate specificity. We show that, in Arabidopsis, LS Rubisco is not naturally methylated and that the physiological substrates of AtLSMT-L are chloroplastic fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase isoforms. These enzymes, which are involved in the assimilation of CO(2) through the Calvin cycle and in chloroplastic glycolysis, are trimethylated at a conserved lysyl residue located close to the C terminus. Both AtLSMT-L and PsLSMT are able to methylate aldolases with similar kinetic parameters and product specificity. Thus, the divergent substrate specificity of LSMT-like enzymes from pea and Arabidopsis concerns only Rubisco. AtLSMT-L is able to interact with unmethylated Rubisco, but the complex is catalytically unproductive. Trimethylation does not modify the kinetic properties and tetrameric organization of aldolases in vitro. The identification of aldolases as methyl proteins in Arabidopsis and other species like pea suggests a role of protein lysine methylation in carbon metabolism in chloroplasts. 相似文献

Complementary and genomic DNA clones coding for aldolase C-1, the fourth-type isozyme of aldolase in rice Oryza sativa L., have been characterized. The organization of the gene is quite similar to those encoding rice aldolase C-a and a maize cytoplasmic-type aldolase, in that introns are located in the same position. Amino acid sequences are highly conserved among cytoplasmic aldolases in plants. Expression of the gene in rice callus is activated by a protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid, and is inhibited in the presence of thapsigargin, a reagent which increases calcium influx into the cytoplasm. The inhibition is rescued by the simultaneous addition of protein kinase inhibitor H-7. Thus, it is suggested that expression of the aldolase C-1 gene is regulated through a signal transduction pathway involving a Ca2+-mediated protein kinase-protein phosphatase system. 相似文献

Two aldolases from the alga Cyanophora paradoxa (Glaucocystophyta) can be separated by chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-Fractogel. The two aldolases are inhibited by 1 mM ethylene-diaminetetraacetate (EDTA) and, therefore, are class II aldolases. When cells of C. paradoxa were fractionated, one aldolase was associated with the cytosol fraction and the other was associated with the cyanoplast fraction. The Km(fructose-1,6-bisphosphate) was 600 [mu]M for the cytosolic aldolase and 340 [mu]M for the cyanoplast aldolase. The activity of the cytosolic aldolase was increased up to 4-fold by 100 mM K+ and slightly inhibited by Li+ and Cs+, whereas the cyanoplast aldolase was not affected by these ions. Inactivation by 1 mM EDTA could be partly restored by the addition of Co2+ or Mn2+ and to a lesser extent by Zn2+ or Mg2+. The molecular masses of the native cytosolic and cyanoplast aldolases are about 90 and 85 kD, respectively, as estimated by velocity centrifugation in sucrose gradients. Implications for the evolution of class I and II aldolases in chloroplasts of higher plants and algae will be discussed. 相似文献

The key enzyme of the glycolytic pathway of Deinococcus radiodurans, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase, could be induced independently by glucose and Mn. The enzyme exhibited the characteristics
of the metal-dependent Class II aldolases. Unlike most Class II aldolases, the deinococcal aldolase preferred Mn, not Zn,
as a cofactor. The fbaA gene encoding the deinococcal aldolase was cloned and the protein overproduced in various Escherichia coli expression hosts. However, the overexpressed deinococcal enzyme aggregated and formed inclusion bodies. Dissolving these
inclusion bodies by urea and subsequent purification by nickel affinity chromatography, resulted in a protein fraction that
exhibited aldolase activity only in the presence of Mn. This active aldolase fraction exhibited masses of about 70 kDa and
35 kDa by gel filtration and by SDS gel electrophoresis, respectively, suggesting that the active aldolase was a dimer. 相似文献

Reciprocal qualitative and quantitative immunological experiments employing an anti-Pediococcus cerevisiae aldolase serum confirmed many of the interspecific relationships demonstrated previously among lactic acid bacteria with antisera prepared against the Streptococcus faecalis fructose diphosphate aldolase. The extent of immunological relatedness observed between the Lactobacillus and Pediococcus aldolases was markedly greater than that noted between Pediococcus and Streptococcus aldolases indicating that the pediococci share closer phylogenetic ties with the rod-shaped lactobacilli than with their spherical counterparts in the streptococci. In addition to confirming the existence of definitive, but distant, relationships between the lactic acid bacteria and certain gram positive nonsporeforming anaerobes, immunological cross-reactivity was also demonstrated between the pediococcal aldolases and those of Aerococcus viridans.This paper is dedicated with deepest appreciation to Prof. Roger Y. Stanier on the occasion of his 60th birthday in token of what his friendship and guidance have meant to me. — J. L. 相似文献

We cloned cDNAs for Xenopus aldolases A, B and C. These three aldolase genes are localized on different chromosomes as a single copy gene. In the adult, the aldolase A gene is expressed extensively in muscle tissues, whereas the aldolase B gene is expressed strongly in kidney, liver, stomach and intestine, while the aldolase C gene is expressed in brain, heart and ovary. In oocytes aldolase A and C mRNAs, but not aldolase B mRNA, are extensively transcribed. Thus, aldolase A and C mRNAs, but not B mRNA, occur abundantly in eggs as maternal mRNAs, and strong expression of aldolase B mRNA is seen only after the late neurula stage. We conclude that aldolase A and C mRNAs are major aldolase mRNAs in early stages of Xenopus embryogenesis which proceeds utilizing yolk as the only energy source, aldolase B mRNA, on the other hand, is expressed only later in development in tissues which are required for dietary fructose metabolism. We also isolated the Xenopus aldolase C genomic gene (ca. 12 kb) and found that i 相似文献
