Ganglioside-specific binding protein on rat brain membranes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A derivative of ganglioside GT1b (IV3NeuAc,II3(NeuAc)2-GgOse4) with an active ester in its lipid portion was synthesized and covalently attached to bovine serum albumin (BSA). The conjugate, having four GT1b molecules per albumin molecule [GT1b)4BSA) was radioiodinated and used to probe rat brain membranes for ganglioside binding proteins. A ganglioside-specific, high affinity (KD = 2-4 nM), saturable (Bmax = 13-20 pmol/mg membrane protein) binding site for 125I-(GT1b)4BSA was demonstrated on detergent-solubilized rat brain membranes adsorbed to filters. 125I-(GT1b)4BSA binding was tissue-specific (more than 35-fold greater to brain than to liver membranes) and was nearly eliminated by pretreatment of brain membrane-adsorbed filters with trypsin (1 microgram/ml). Underivatized gangliosides added as mixed detergent-lipid micelles blocked 125I-(GT1b)4BSA binding to brain membranes; structurally related GQ1b, GT1b, and GD1b were the most potent (half-maximal inhibition at 70-110 nM), while half-maximal inhibition by other gangliosides (GD3, GD1a, GM3, GM2, and GM1) required 5-20-fold higher concentrations. Other sphingolipids, neutral glycosphingolipids, and glycoproteins were poor inhibitors, and treatment of (GT1b)4BSA with neuraminidase attenuated its binding. Although most phospholipids were noninhibitory, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol inhibited half-maximally at 400-600 nM. However, inhibition of 125I-(GT1b)4BSA binding by gangliosides was competitive and reversible while that by phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol was not. Ganglioside-protein conjugate binding reveals ganglioside-specific brain membrane receptors. 相似文献

Exogenous gangliosides enhance the interaction of fibronectin with ganglioside-deficient cells 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The major cell-surface glycoprotein fibronectin mediates a variety of cellular adhesive interactions that have been reported to be competitively inhibited by gangliosides. These effects suggest a possible function of gangliosides as receptors for fibronectin. To test this hypothesis more directly, we examined the interaction of endogenous fibronectin with a ganglioside-deficient cell line, NCTC 2071. These cells, which grow in serum-free medium, synthesized fibronectin. The fibronectin did not bind to these cells, but instead bound diffusely to the culture substratum. When the cells were cultured in medium containing ganglioside, the fibronectin became bound to the cell surface in fibrillar strands. The order of effectiveness of purified gangliosides was GT1b greater than GD1a greater than GM1 greater than GM2 greater than GM3. The effect with mixed gangliosides was accompanied by a restoration of cellular capacity to bind and to respond to cholera toxin. Treatment of the cells with several phospholipids did not alter fibronectin binding. Our results support the hypothesis that gangliosides can help mediate the binding of fibronectin to fibroblasts. 相似文献

The influence of rat liver GM1, GM2, GD1 and GT1 gangliosides on the interaction of liposomes with rat hepatocytes was investigated. It was shown that liposomes coated with GM1 and GT1 are effectively bound and captured by hepatocytes. Preincubation of hepatocytes with N-acetylglucosamine and D-galactose reduced the binding of GM1- and GT1-liposomes by those cells. The data obtained suggest that there are binding sites for some gangliosides on the surface of rat hepatocytes. 相似文献

Our study deals with the interaction of CD33 related-siglecs-5,-7,-8,-9,-10 with gangliosides GT1b, GQ1b, GD3, GM2, GM3 and GD1a. Siglec-5 bound preferentially to GQ1b, but weakly to GT1b, whereas siglec-10 interacted only with GT1b ganglioside. Siglec-7 and siglec-9 displayed binding to gangliosides GD3, GQ1b and GT1b bearing a disialoside motif, though siglec-7 was more potent; besides, siglec-9 interacted also with GM3. Siglec-8 demonstrated low affinity to the gangliosides tested compared with other siglecs. Despite high structural similarity of CD33 related siglecs, they demonstrated different ganglioside selectivity, in particular to the Neu5Acalpha2-8Neu5Ac motif. 相似文献

Binding of tetanus toxin to rat brain membranes was of lower affinity and capacity when binding was determined in 150 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4) than in 25 mM Tris-acetate (pH 6.0). Binding under both conditions was reduced by treating the membranes with neuraminidase. Pronase treatment, however, reduced toxin binding only in the Tris-saline buffer (pH 7.4). In addition, the concentration of gangliosides required to inhibit toxin binding was 100-fold higher in Tris-saline compared to Tris-acetate buffer. The toxin receptors in the membranes were analyzed by ligand blotting techniques. Membrane components were dissolved in sodium dodecyl sulfate, separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and transferred to nitrocellulose sheets, which were overlaid with 125I-labeled toxin. Tetanus toxin bound only to material that migrated in the region of the dye front and was extracted with lipid solvents. Gangliosides isolated from the lipid extracts or other sources were separated by TLC on silica gel and the chromatograms were overlaid with labeled tetanus toxin. The toxin bound to areas where the major rat brain gangliosides migrated. When equimolar amounts of different purified gangliosides were applied to the chromatogram, binding of the toxin was in the order GD1b approximately equal to GT1b approximately equal to GQ1b greater than GD2 greater than GD3 much greater than GD1a approximately equal to GM1. Thus, the toxin appears to have the highest affinity for gangliosides with a disialyl group linked to the inner galactosyl residue. When binding of tetanus toxin to transfers and chromatograms was determined in the Tris-saline buffer (pH 7.4), the toxin bound to the same components but the extent of binding was markedly reduced compared with the low-salt and -pH conditions. Our results indicate that the interaction of tetanus toxin with rat brain membranes and gangliosides is greatly reduced under more physiological conditions of salt and pH and raise the possibility that other membrane components such as sialoglycoproteins may be receptors for the toxin under these conditions. 相似文献

Adhesion of Bordetella pertussis to sulfatides and to the GalNAc beta 4Gal sequence found in glycosphingolipids 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The adherence of the human respiratory pathogen, Bordetella pertussis, to purified glycosphingolipids was investigated using thin layer chromatography overlay assays. Both virulent and avirulent strains of B. pertussis bound to asialo GM1. The bacterium did not bind to the gangliosides GM1, GD1a, GD1b, and GT1b, nor to lactosylceramide, trihexosylceramide, globoside, or Forssman antigen. However, after treatment of the chromatography plates with sialidase, B. pertussis bound to the gangliosides GM1, GM2, GD1a, GD1b, and GT1b but not to GM3. Comparison of the oligosaccharide structures of these gangliosides suggests that the minimum sugar structure needed for avid bacterial binding is GalNAc beta 4Gal. This structure has been previously implicated as a receptor for other human respiratory pathogens (Krivan, H. C., Roberts, D. D., Ginsburg, V. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A 85, 6157-6161). Virulent strains of B. pertussis also bound specifically to sulfatide. This response was dose-dependent and inhibited by the anionic polysaccharide dextran sulfate. The sulfated-sugars dextran sulfate, fucoidan, and heparin inhibited the attachment of virulent strains of B. pertussis to human WiDr cells and to hamster trachea cells indicating that sulfatides on the surface of mammalian cells may function as a receptor for B. pertussis. The occurrence of both sulfatides and asialo GM1 in human lung and trachea suggests that these glycolipids may serve as specific receptors for B. pertussis. 相似文献

GM1 ganglioside binding to the crude mitochondrial fraction of rat brain and its effect on (Na+, K+)-ATPase were studied, the following results being obtained: (a) the binding process followed a biphasic kinetics with a break at 50 nM-GM1; GM1 at concentrations below the break was stably associated, while over the break it was loosely associated; (b) stably bound GM1 activated (Na+, K+)-ATPase up to a maximum of 43%; (c) the activation was dependent upon the amount of bound GM1 and was highest at the critical concentration of 20 pmol bound GM1 X mg protein-1; (d) loosely bound GM1 suppressed the activating effect on (Na+, K+)-ATPase elicited by firmly bound GM1; (e) GM1-activated (Na+, K+)-ATPase had the same pH optimum and apparent Km (for ATP) as normal (Na+, K+)-ATPase but a greater apparent Vmax; (f) under identical binding conditions (2 h, 37 degrees C, with 40 nM substance) all tested gangliosides (GM1, GD1a, GD1b, GT1b) activated (Na+, K+)-ATPase (from 26-43%); NeuNAc, sodium dodecylsulphate, sulphatide and cerebroside had only a very slight effect. It is suggested that the ganglioside activation of (Na+-K+)-ATPase is a specific phenomenon not related to the amphiphilic and ionic properties of gangliosides, but due to modifications of the membrane lipid environment surrounding the enzyme. 相似文献

Oligosialogangliosides inhibit GM2- and GD3-synthesis in isolated Golgi vesicles from rat liver 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
H K Yusuf G Schwarzmann G Pohlentz K Sandhoff 《Biological chemistry Hoppe-Seyler》1987,368(5):455-462
The effect of end-product gangliosides (GD1a, GT1b, GQ1b) on the activities of two key enzymes in ganglioside biosynthesis, namely GM2-synthase and GD3-synthase in rat liver Golgi apparatus, has been investigated in detergent-free as well as in detergent-containing assays. In detergent-free intact Golgi vesicles, phosphatidylglycerol was used as a stimulant. This phospholipid was earlier shown to stimulate the activity of GM2-synthase without disrupting the vesicular intactness; it has, however, no effect on GD3-synthase (Yusuf, H.K.M., Pohlentz, G., Schwarzmann, G. & Sandhoff, K. (1983) Eur. J. Biochem. 134, 47-54). In the presence of this stimulant, all higher gangliosides inhibited the activity of GM2-synthase, the inhibition being more profound with increasing negative charge of the inhibiting gangliosides. These inhibitions are unspecific, but they do not exclude an end-product regulation of ganglioside biosynthesis. In detergent-solubilized Golgi membranes, on the other hand, the inhibition pattern was completely different. Here, ganglioside GD1a was the strongest inhibitor of GM2-synthase, followed by GM1 and GM2, but GT1b also inhibited this enzyme appreciably, in fact more strongly than GM1 or GM2. On the other hand, GQ1b had no effect at all. Conversely, GD3-synthase activity was most strongly inhibited by GQ1b, followed by GT1b, but GD1a also inhibited this enzyme almost as strongly as GT1b. These latter findings indicate that feed-back control of the a- and the b-series pathways of ganglioside biosynthesis is probably not specific, but the pathways appear to be inhibited more preferably by their respective end-products than by any other gangliosides of the same of the other series. 相似文献

Previous studies with microcultures of astroglial (AG) cells from newborn rat cerebrum had shown an ability of gangliosides to interact with AG cells cultured under defined conditions. We have now investigated the capability of gangliosides to stimulate DNA synthesis and cell number increases in similar secondary microcultures of newborn rat cerebrum AG cells. At a concentration of 6 X 10(-5)M, GM1 ganglioside stimulated DNA synthesis and increased cell numbers, with DNA synthesis leading cell increases by 12-24 hr. The ganglioside-induced AG cell proliferative response occurred with GD1a, GD1b and GT1b, GT1b being the most potent at 10(-5)M--while asialo GM1 and sialic acid were without effect. In the standard test cultures, DNA synthesis declined very steeply after the first day, with cell numbers stabilizing at the level reached after 2 days. Ganglioside was not itself responsible for the restricted proliferative response, as serum produced the same behaviors. 相似文献

Composition of gangliosides from ovine testis and spermatozoa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Gangliosides were extracted and purified from ovine testis and ejaculated spermatozoa which contained, respectively, 57 and 9 nmol lipid-bound sialic acid per gram wet weight. Fourteen gangliosides were resolved by thin-layer chromatography of testicular gangliosides, of which eleven were purified in sufficient quantity to enable a complete compositional analysis of the carbohydrate residues to be performed. None of the gangliosides contained fucose, but several contained N-glycolylneuraminic acid as a component of the sialic acid species. Relative migration on thin-layer chromatograms relative to known standards, compositional analysis, and selective degradation by specific enzymes were used as the basis for identification. Testis contained members of the ganglio series (GM1, GD1a, GD1b, GT1b, GQ1b), hematoside series (GM3, GD3), and sialosylparagloboside in the molar ratio of 54:40:6, respectively. Testicular GM3, GM1, GD3, GD1a, GD1b and GT1b ran as double bands on thin-layer chromatography which could be accounted for by observed differences in the fatty acid moiety. In addition, the slower migrating band of each pair contained some or all of its sialic acid residues as N-glycolylneuraminic acid, whereas the faster migrating band contained exclusively N-acetylneuraminic acid, except for GM3 where N-acetylneuraminic acid was the sole species in both bands. Thin-layer chromatography of sperm gangliosides revealed seven bands comigrating with equivalent testicular gangliosides. These coincided with the slower migrating bands of testicular GM3, GM1, GD3, GD1a, both bands of GD1b, and possibly both bands of GT1b. Sperm contained only trace amounts of sialosylparagloboside but, in addition, two unidentified bands which were absent from testis were also observed. The molar ratio of the ganglio series to the hematoside series in sperm was 42:58 with GM3 accounting for 42% of total gangliosides. 相似文献

Polyoma virus (Py) and simian virus 40 (SV40) travel from the plasma membrane to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from where they enter the cytosol and then the nucleus to initiate infection. Here we demonstrate that specific gangliosides can serve as plasma membrane receptors for these viruses, GD1a and GT1b for Py and GM1 for SV40. Binding and flotation assays were used to show that addition of these gangliosides to phospholipid vesicles allowed specific binding of the respective viruses. The crystal structure of polyoma VP1 with a sialic acid-containing oligosaccharide was used to derive a model of how the two terminal sugars (sialic acid-alpha2,3-galactose) in one branch of GD1a and GT1b are recognized by the virus. A rat cell line deficient in ganglioside synthesis is poorly infectible by polyoma and SV40, but addition of the appropriate gangliosides greatly facilitates virus uptake, transport to the ER and infection. Lipid binding sites for polyoma are shown to be present in rough ER membranes, suggesting that the virus travel with the ganglioside(s) from the plasma membranes to the ER. 相似文献

Ganglioside GM3 inhibits epidermal growth factor (EGF)-dependent cell proliferation in a variety of cell lines. Both in vitro and in vivo, this glycosphingolipid inhibits the kinase activity of the EGF receptor (EGFR). Furthermore, membrane preparations containing EGFR can bind to GM3-coated surfaces. These data suggest that GM3 may interact directly with the EGFR. In this study, the interaction of gangliosides with the extracellular domain (ECD) of the EGFR was investigated. The purified human recombinant ECD from insect cells bound directly to ganglioside GM3. The ganglioside interaction site appears to be distinct from the EGF-binding site. In agreement with previous reports on the effects of specific gangliosides on EGFR kinase activity, the ECD preferentially interacted with GM3. The order of relative binding of other gangliosides investigated was as follows: GM3 GM2, GD3, GM4 > GM1, GD1a, GD1b, GT1b, GD2, GQ1b > lactosylceramide. These data suggest that NeuAc-lactose is essential for binding and that any sugar substitution reduces binding. In agreement with the specificity of soluble ECD binding to gangliosides, GM3 specifically inhibited EGFR autophosphorylation. Identification of a ganglioside interaction site on the ECD of the EGFR is consistent with the hypothesis that endogenous GM3 may function as a direct modulator of EGFR activity. 相似文献

Abstract: To investigate the role of Sialyltransferases in the metabolism of brain gangliosides, we examined activities of five different Sialyltransferases (GM3-, GD3-, GT3-, GD1a-, and GT1a-synthase) using total membrane preparations from cichlid fish and Sprague-Dawley rat brains, and analyzed the relationship between the enzyme activities and the ganglloside compositions. The patterns of sialyltransferase activities in fish and rat brains differed from each other. In fish brain, the GM3-synthase activity was lower than GD3-synthase activity, whereas the opposite relationship was observed in rat brain. The GT3-synthase reaction with fish brain membranes produced radiolabeled GM3, GD3, and a ganglioside that was identified as GT3 based on mobility on TLC using two different solvent systems. No GT3-synthase activity was detected in rat brain. The GD1a-and GT1a-synthase activities in fish brain were higher than those in rat brain. Although GT1a was a single radiolabeled ganglioside in fish GT1a-synthase reaction, this ganglioside could not be detected in rat brain. The ratios of GM3-, GD3-, GT3-, GD1a-, and GT1a-synthase activities in fish and rat brain were 23:31:4:28:14 and 61:21:0:18:0, respectively. Ganglioside analysis showed that fish brain was enriched with c-series gangliosides including GT3 and polysialo-species, whereas a-and b-se-ries gangliosides were major components in rat brain. These results suggest that the species-specific expression of gangliosides in brain tissues may be regulated, at least in part, at the level of sialyltransferase activities. 相似文献

Expression of gangliosides in the liver was examined in primary cultures of hepatocytes from adult rats and liver tissues from rats of different ages. Hepatocytes were isolated from 7-week-old rat liver and cultured in L-15 medium containing insulin, dexamethasone and 10% fetal bovine serum. Hepatocytes proliferated only on the first day, and then ceased proliferation. The content of GD3 and GD1a increased during the period of active proliferation and reached a nearly constant level, whereas GM1, GD1b, GT1b, and GQ1b gradually increased throughout culture. Addition of EGF to the culture medium caused significant increases in the content of GD3, and to a lesser degree of GM3, but exhibited little effect on the expression of other ganglioside species. The specific induction of GD3 and GM3 expression by EGF was reproduced under serum-free conditions, despite the lack of hepatocyte proliferation. Expression of gangliosides in cultured hepatocytes was also modulated by cell density; higher cell density brought about increased content of GM1, GD1a, GD1b, GT1b, and GQ1b with concomitant reduction of GM3 in cells. The composition of gangliosides in liver tissues demonstrated a unique developmental pattern. GD3 and GD1a were strongly expressed in E-16 embryonic tissue and rapidly decreased with increasing age. GD1b, GT1b, and GQ1b were found only in postnatal liver tissues. These findings suggest that the expression of gangliosides in rat hepatocytes and liver tissues are regulated by growth- and development-dependent factors. 相似文献

Abstract: Purified rat brain Ca2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II) is stimulated by brain gangliosides to a level of about 30% the activity obtained in the presence of Ca2+ /calmodulin (CaM). Of the various gangliosides tested, GT1b was the most potent, giving half-maximal activation at 25 μ M . Gangliosides GD1a and GM1 also gave activation, but asialo-GM1 was without effect. Activation was rapid and did not require calcium. The same gangliosides also stimulated the autophosphorylation of CaM-kinase II on serine residues, but did not produce the Ca2+ -independent form of the kinase. Ganglioside stimulation of CaM-kinase II was also present in rat brain synaptic membrane fractions. Higher concentrations (125-250 μ M ) of GT1b, GD1a, and GM1 also inhibited CaM-kinase II activity. This inhibition appears to be substrate-directed, as the extent of inhibition is very dependent on the substrate used. The molecular mechanism of the stimulatory effect of gangliosides was further investigated using a synthetic peptide (CaMK 281-309), which contains the CaM-binding, inhibitory, and autophosphorylation domains of CaM-kinase II. Using purified brain CaM-kinase II in which these regulatory domains were removed by limited proteolysis, CaMK 281-309 strongly inhibited kinase activity (IC50 =0.2 μ M ). GT1b completely reversed this inhibition, but did not stimulate phosphorylation of the peptide on threonine-286. These results demonstrate that GT1b can partially mimic the effects of Ca2+ /CaM on native CaM-kinase II and on peptide CaMK 281-309. 相似文献

Nuclear gangliosides were characterized using two distinct fractions of large (N1) and small (N2) nuclear populations from rat brain. The ganglioside concentration of N1 nuclei from adult rat brain was 0.92 microg sialic acid/mg protein, which was about 3.8 times higher than that of N2 nuclei. N1 and N2 nuclear gangliosides showed similar compositional profiles; they contained major gangliosides of GM1, GD1a, GD1b, and GT1b, with GM3 in lesser amounts. c-Series gangliosides such as GT3, GQ1c, and GP1c were also detected in both nuclear preparations. Nuclear localization of gangliosides was confirmed by immunofluorescence with anti-GM1 antibody, cholera toxin B subunit, and c-series ganglioside-specific monoclonal antibody A2B5. Developmental changes of nuclear gangliosides were examined using rats of different ages ranging from embryonic day 14 (E14) to postnatal 7 weeks. The concentration of N1 nuclear gangliosides changed only slightly during development and did not correlate with that of whole-brain gangliosides. The developmental pattern of ganglioside composition of N1 nuclei was also distinguished from that of microsomal membranes; the ganglioside changes in N1 nuclei included reduced expression of di- and polysialogangliosides at E16 and higher proportions of GM3 at early and late stages of the period. These findings suggest that gangliosides in nuclear membranes are developmentally regulated in a distinct manner in brain cells. 相似文献

Age-related changes in GM1, GD1a, GT1b components of gangliosides in Wistar albino rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In this study, age-related changes of GM1, GD1a, GT1b fractions of gangliosides were investigated in whole brain of male Wistar albino rats. Insignificant increases were detected in GM1 values from the third to the 24th month, whereas GD1a and GT1b concentrations of ganglioside in 24-month-old rats decreased significantly as compared to 6-month-old rats. Although there were no significant differences in the GD1a/GT1b ratio of any groups, GM1/GD1a and GM1/GT1b ratios were significantly increased as compared to 6-month-old rats. The increase in the ratios of gangliosides are not due to an increase of GM1 fractions; they result from a decrease of GD1a and GT1b fractions of gangliosides. In conclusion, the concentration of ganglioside decreased with ageing. 相似文献

Gangliosides in rat kidney were analyzed for their composition, regional distribution, and developmental changes. Renal tissue from 7-week-old rats showed a GM3-dominant pattern with GD3 and several minor ganglioside components including GM4, GM2, GD1a, and an unknown ganglioside (ganglioside X). The tissue also contained c-series gangliosides that included GT3 as the main component with GT2 in a lesser amount. Ganglioside analysis of cortical and medullary regions of renal tissue suggested the restricted localization of some gangliosides. While GM4 and GD3 were enriched in the cortical region, GM2 was distributed mainly in the medullary area. Renal gangliosides showed unique developmental profiles during a period from Embryonic Day 20 (E20) to 7 weeks postnatal. The content of renal gangliosides increased from E20, reached the highest around Postnatal Day 1, and thereafter, decreased rapidly to the adult level. The ratio of N-glycolylneuraminic acid to total sialic acids in gangliosides tended to change in inverse proportion to the amount of total sialic acids. The composition of major gangliosides in renal tissues shifted from GD3-dominant to GM3-dominant patterns with advancing ages. While GM1 was expressed only at early stages of the development, GM4, GM2, and ganglioside X appeared after Postnatal Day 3. The expression of c-series gangliosides was less affected through the period examined. These results suggest that gangliosides may be implicated with development and function of rat kidney. 相似文献

The binding specificities of amyloid beta-protein (A beta) such as A beta 1-40, A beta 1-42, A beta 40-1, A beta 1-38, A beta 25-35, and amyloid beta precursor protein (beta-APP) analogues for different glycosphingolipids were determined by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using a liposome capture method. A beta 1-42, A beta 1-40, A beta 40-1, and A beta 1-38, but not A beta 25-35, bound to GM1 ganglioside in the following rank order: A beta 1-42 > A beta 40-1 > A beta 1-40 > A beta 1-38. The beta-APP analogues bound to GM1 ganglioside with a relatively lower affinity. Aged derivatives of A beta were found to have higher affinity to GM1 ganglioside than fresh or soluble derivatives. A beta 1-40 bound to a number of gangliosides with the following order of binding strength: GQ1b alpha > GT1a alpha > GQ1b > GT1b > GD3 > GD1a = GD1b > LM1 > GM1 > GM2 = GM3 > GM4. Neutral glycosphingolipids had a lower affinity for A beta 1-40 than gangliosides with the following order of binding strength: Gb4 > asialo-GM1 (GA1) > Gb3 > asialo-GM2 (GA2) = LacCer. The results seem to indicate that an alpha2,3NeuAc residue on the neutral oligosaccharide core is required for binding. In addition, the alpha2-6NeuAc residue linked to GalNAc contributes significantly to binding affinity for A beta. 相似文献
