AMV-RNA was translated into a precursor polypeptide of 76,000–80,000 daltons in a reticulocyte cell-free system. Besides this high molecular weight precursor, several smaller precursor polypeptides and the four major internal structural viral proteins were also synthesized. These virus-specific translation products were detectable after immunoprecipitation with antiserum against the gs-antigens of AMV. 相似文献

Eight neutral oligosaccharide fractions were obtained from the pooled urine of two patients with mannosidosis by Bio-Gel P2 and Bio-Gel P4 column chromatography. The structures of seventeen oligosaccharides were determined by monosaccharide composition analysis, methylation studies, acetolysis, Smith degradation, and 13C NMR analysis. Three of the proposed structures, Manα1-3Manβ1-4GlcNAc, Manα1-2Manα1-3Manβ1-4GlcNAc, and Manα1-2Manα1-2Manα1-3Manβ1-4GlcNAc are identical to those first published by Norden et al. (N. E. Norden, A. Lundblad, S. Svennson, P. A. Ockerman, and S. Autio, 1973. J. Biol. Chem.248, 6210–6215; N. E. Norden, A. Lundblad, S. Svennson, and S. Autio, 1974. Biochemistry13, 871–874). Thirteen of them, Manα1-3Manα1-6(Manα1-3)-Manβ1-4GlcNAc, Manα1-3Manα1-6(Manα1-2Manα1-3)Manβ1-4GlcNAc, and 11 isomers of (Manα1-2)0–4[Manα1-6(Manα1-3)Manα1-6(Manα1-3)Manβ1-4GlcNAc], are the same as those first published by Yamashita et al. (K. Yamashita, Y. Tachibana, K. Mihara, S. Okada, H. Yabuuchi, and A. Kobata, 1980, J. Biol. Chem.255, 5126–5133); a tetrasac-charide, Manα1-6(Manα1-3)Manβ1-4GlcNAc, is newly reported and several other structural possibilities are proposed. 相似文献

An analysis is made of the van der Waals dispersion attractive forces and electrostatic repulsive forces between the grana thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. These forces are determined for negatively charged surfaces with a pKa value of 4.7 for a bulk pH of 7.0 with a range of mono- and divalent cation concentrations and intermembrane spacing in the range 10 to 80 Å. For equilibrium under dark conditions, it is concluded that either there is extensive electrostatic binding of divalent cations (Mg2+) to the negatively charged membrane groups (phospholipid, sulfolipid, and protein carboxyl), or a redistribution of these groups between stacked and unstacked regions must be invoked. 相似文献

Cytochalasin B inhibits the penetration of sperm nuclei into Urechis eggs without inhibiting sperm-induced egg activation. The acrosome reaction appears normal, and plasma membranes of the acrosomal tubule and egg become closely apposed. It is uncertain whether or not the drug blocks fusion of these membranes; however, sperm penetration cone formation is inhibited. 相似文献

Using six mouse strain combinations, we attempted to prolong cardiac allograft survival by pretreatment of recipients with a single iv injection of donor-specific whole blood or spleen cells plus a single ip injection of cyclophosphamide (Cy). Significant prolongation of cardiac allograft survival occurred in a small proportion of pretreated mice of some strain combinations, with some grafts surviving for periods longer than 6–9 months. Cy injected alone did not influence the normal cardiac allograft rejection time of between 1 and 2 weeks. Depending upon the strain combination, accelerated rejection of all or some of the grafts occurred in mice pretreated with blood or spleen cells or myocardial cells alone. 相似文献

In the embryology of the eye region in the anophthalmic strain of mice (), development proceeds normally until Day 10 (26 somites). At this time a lens is induced, but it is smaller in size and may be improperly centered in the optic cup. Where the lens is centered in relation to the optic cup determines whether microphthalmia or anophthalmia will occur. Also, we observed that optic cup formation is different in normal control strains. 相似文献

Acid alpha-glucosidase has been purified from human placenta to a specific activity of approximately 6800, (4-methylumbelliferyl-alpha-D-glucoside as a substrate) or 55,400 mumol g-1 min-1 (glycogen or maltose as substrate). The purified enzyme gives rise to multiple protein bands on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), i.e., a major doublet of 82K and 69K , a minor doublet of 25K and 21K , and a faint band of 100K. All of the molecular weight species stained as glycoproteins with an intensity apparently proportional to their protein content, and were present in enzyme from individuals homozygous for the allozyme alpha-Glu 1. Isoelectric focusing revealed only enzymatically active proteins which, when analysed by SDS-PAGE, gave rise to multiple molecular weight species. Chromatography of I125-labeled, purified enzyme on Bio-Gel P-100 revealed only a radiolabeled, high-molecular-weight species which corresponded with enzyme activity. These findings suggest that, in the native state, the mature enzyme exists as a high-molecular-weight species, which is dissociable in SDS to several low-molecular-weight species. These results are consistent with reports that a 100K primary product of translation is post-translationally modified to yield polypeptides of lower molecular weights, and that all of the molecular species are absent in cells genetically deficient for acid alpha-glucosidase. The possibility that the low-molecular-weight (20- 25K ) protein bands in SDS-gels corresponded to a previously reported low-molecular-weight species generated by treatment with guanidine-HCl was investigated. The I125-labeled, purified acid maltase was dissociated by guanidine into two equal peaks of approximately 64K and 28K molecular weight. Surprisingly, both peaks, when analyzed on SDS-gels, yielded identical and equally intensely staining bands of 64K molecular weight. These results suggest that the mature acid alpha-glucosidase is made up of polypeptides which are bonded in the native state by at least two different types of interaction, one type which is dissociable in SDS and one type which is dissociable in guanidine but not in SDS. The nature and possible function of the 25K polypeptide generated only by guanidine-HCl remains to be determined. 相似文献

Contrary to earlier findings, monomeric native α-lactalbumin does bind naphthalene dyes such as ANS and TNS with marked enhancement of their fluorescence. Nanosecond decay measurements indicate there to be two dye binding sites per protein molecule with lifetimes of ca. 2 and 15 ns for ANS and 5 and 11 ns for TNS. The fluorescence titrations curves of α-lactalbumin with ANS and TNS reflect this site multiplicity, i.e., it was not possible to analyze such curves with a single Kdiss. The apparent dissociation constants for binding of ANS and TNS to native bovine α-lactalbumin, as determined by an ultracentrifugal technique, ca. 950 and 900 μm, respectively, indicate that such binding is considerably weaker than previously supposed. The A conformer (metal ion-free form) of α-lactalbumin binds ANS and TNS more tightly than the N (native) form of the protein with marked fluorescence enhancement. The A conformer has two dye binding sites with lifetimes for ANS and TNS comparable with those seen with native protein. 相似文献

The transversal distribution of the free NH2 groups associated with phosphatidyl ethanolamine and the intrinsic membrane proteins of the purified pig gastric microsomes was quantitated and their relations to the function of the gastric K+-stimulated ATPase was investigated. Three different chemical probes such as 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS), 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (FDNB), and 2-methoxy-2,4-diphenyl-3(2H)-furanone (MDPF) were used for the study. The structure-function relationship of the membrane NH2 groups was studied after modification with the probes under various conditions and relating the inhibition of the K+-stimulated ATPase to the ATPase-dependent H+ accumulation by the gastric microsomal vesicles. TNBS (2 mm) inhibits nearly completely the K+-stimulated ATPase and the vesicular dye accumulation, both in presence and absence of valinomycin plus K+. Both the K+-ATPase and dye uptake were largely (about 50%) protected against TNBS inhibition if the treatment with TNBS was carried out in presence of 2 mm ATP. TNBS and FDNB labeled 70% of the total microsomal PE; the intra- and extravesicular orientation being 48 and 22%, respectively. The presence or absence of ATP did not have any effect on the TNBS labeling of microsomal PE. ATP, however, significantly (P < 0.05) reduced the labeling of protein-bound NH2 groups of gastric microsomes by TNBS. The intra- and extravesicular orientation of the protein NH2 groups were 60 and 40%, respectively. Eighteen percent of the total protein-NH2 appeared to be associated with the K+-stimulated ATPase; the rest being associated with non-ATPase proteins of the microsomes. About half (50%) of the total free NH2 groups of the K+-stimulated ATPase were exposed to the vesicle exterior and were found to play critical roles in gastric ATPase function. The generation of florescence after MDPF conjugation of gastric microsomes was largely (50%) inhibited by ATP. ATP also protected completely the MDPF inhibition of gastric K+-stimulated ATPase and dye uptake. 相似文献

The differential action of digitonin on stacked and unstacked chloroplast thylakoids was used to investigate the molecular interactions between thylakoid membranes. The yield of the heavy fraction which is obtained from chloroplasts after digitonin incubation and differential centrifugation was taken as a measure of the degree or tightness of membrane appression. The effects of various mono-, di-, and trivalent cations on the yield of the heavy fraction were studied, and the results interpreted in terms either of electrostatic screening or ion binding to the thylakoid membrane surface: Although there was some degree of cation specificity in the degree of thylakoid appression indicative of cation binding, the nonspecific screening effect was much more important in determining the overall balance of forces. It is postulated that stacking occurs in regions of low net surface charge density, with a possible segregation of excess negative charges into nonstacked regions. 相似文献

Mono-, bis-, and tris-β-d-galactopyranosides of (2-(5-hydrazinocarbonylpentanamido)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1, 3-propanediol were synthesized. Treatment of the glycosides with nitrous acid gave the corresponding acyl azides which were coupled to bovine serum albumin to form neoglycoproteins. These derivatives were tested for their inhibitory action on (i) the d-galactose binding by rabbit liver membrane, (ii) the corresponding binding by the isolated binding protein, and (iii) the corresponding uptake by intact rat hepatocytes. In these systems, the neoglycoprotein with attached tris-galacto was a better inhibitor than the bis derivative, which in turn was more effective than the mono derivative per each ligand. However, the order is reversed when the inhibitory action is expressed on the basis of d-galactosyl residue. 相似文献

A calcium and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) was detected in the crude soluble extracts of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells. The enzyme required calcium, phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylinositol, and diacylglycerol (DG) for maximal activation. Protein kinase C phosphorylated both endogenous cytosolic proteins and various histones. Addition of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to A431 cultures resulted in a 2 to 3-fold stimulation of protein kinase activity. 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in concert with EGF attenuated the EGF-induced enhanced phosphorylation of endogenous proteins. It is conceivable that DG, derived from phosphatidylinositol turnover, acts as a natural activator of protein kinase C activity. 相似文献

The reversal of insulin effects on sugar transport and phosphodiesterase in fat cells was studied after arresting further actions of insulin with KCN, NaN3, 2,4-dinitrophenol, or dicumarol. These agents rapidly lower the ATP concentration and concomitantly block the actions of insulin added later. Contrary to our expectation, the above inhibitors failed to initiate deactivation of the hormone-stimulated transport system. Instead, in the presence of the agents the transport system remained activated even after cells had been washed with an insulin-free buffer. This effect of the inhibitors was reversed when cells were washed with an inhibitor-free buffer containing glucose or pyruvate. The above inhibitors also blocked the deactivation of sugar transport stimulated by mechanical agitation. The effects of the inhibitors could not be explained by their possible effects on the basal transport activity, the intracellular urea space, or the cell count. The insulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase activity was rapidly lowered when cells were exposed to the above inhibitors. Apparently, these agents did not denature phosphodiesterase itself since the latter could be reactivated by insulin when inhibitor-treated cells were washed with a glucose-containing buffer. None of the above agents, except dicumarol, significantly inhibited phosphodiesterase activity in a cell-free system. It is suggested that the effects of insulin on sugar transport and phosphodiesterase are reversed by different mechanisms. ATP or metabolic energy may be involved in the deactivation of sugar transport, but not in that of phosphodiesterase. 相似文献

This paper describes the interaction of apamin, the bee venom neurotoxin, with its receptor in the guinea pig colon. The pharmacological activity of the toxin was assayed by measuring its contracting effect on guinea pig colon preparations that had been previously relaxed by neurotensin. The IC50 value of apamin in this bioassay is 7 nM. These pharmacological data are compared to the binding properties of apamin to smooth muscle membranes prepared from guinea pig colon. The highly radiolabeled monoiododerivative of apamin binds to its colon receptor with a dissociation constant . The maximal binding capacity of colonic membranes is 30dfmol/mg of protein. The dissociation constant of the unmodified toxin is 23 pM. The difference between the toxin concentrations that produce half-maximal effects in the binding and pharmacological studies arises from the different experimental conditions used for the two assays. 相似文献

Specific binding proteins for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 were identified in bovine mammary tissue obtained from lactating and non-lactating mammary glands by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The macromolecules had characteristic sedimentation coefficients of 3.5-3.7 S. The interaction of l,25-dihydroxy[3H]vitamin D3 with the macromolecule of the mammary gland cytosol occurred at low concentrations, was saturable, and was a high affinity interaction (Kd = 4.2 × 10?10M at 25 °C). Binding was reversed by excess unlabeled 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, was destroyed by heat and/or incubation with trypsin. It is thus inferred that this macromolecule is protein as it is not destroyed by ribonuclease or deoxyribonuclease. 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and vitamin D3 did not effectively compete with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 for binding to cytosol of mammary tissue at near physiological concentrations of these analogs, thus demonstrating the specificity of the binding protein for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. In vitro subcellular distribution of 1,25-dihydroxy[3H]vitamin D3 demonstrated a time- and temperature-dependent movement of the hormone from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. By 90 min at 25 °C 72% of the 1,25-dihydroxy[3H]vitamin D3 was associated with the nucleus. In addition a 5–6 S macromolecule which binds 25-hydroxy[3H]vitamin D3 was demonstrated in mammary tissue. Finally, it is possible that the receptor-hormone complex present in mammary tissue may function in a manner analogous to intestinal tissue, resulting in the control of calcium transport by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in this tissue. 相似文献

Sites of integration of infectious DNA of avian reticuloendotheliosis viruses in different avian cellular DNAs. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The pattern of integration for the infectious DNA of two avian reticuloendotheliosis viruses whose DNA is not inactivated by digestion with the restriction endonuclease, Eco RI was determined. High molecular weight DNA from infected chicken, turkey and pheasant cells was digested with Eco RI, electrophoresed through agarose gels and assayed for infectivity. The same patterns of integration of infectious viral DNA were found for these species of avian cells infected at high or low multiplicities with two reticuloendotheliosis viruses. There were multiple sites of integration in acutely infected cells with concomitant cell death. There was a single site of integration in chronically infected cells with no cell death. There were more integrated infectious viral DNA molecules per cell in acutely infected cells than in chronically infected cells. These results are consistent with the hypotheses that the cell death in the acute phase of infection is a result of the integration of the infectious viral DNA at multiple sites, and that only those cells survive that have the infectious viral DNA integrated exclusively at the single site. 相似文献
