为了解液泡膜蛋白在植物细胞信号途径中的功能,用新型的非放射性同位素方法从玉米根细胞的高纯度液泡膜上鉴定出一种膜内在的蛋白激酶.这种蛋白激酶具有Ca2+依赖、CaM和磷脂酰丝氨酸不依赖等特性,与已在多种植物中报道的含有类似钙调素结构域的蛋白激酶CDPK相似.离体实验表明其活性的最适pH值为6.5,最适Ca2+浓度为10 μmol/L.从最适pH值和去污剂的影响可以推测出其活性位点朝向胞质一侧.Zn2+对其活性没有明显的抑制作用,说明该激酶缺少某些哺乳动物的蛋白激酶常含有的锌指结构.当液泡膜蛋白在Ca2+和ATP存在的条件下被预磷酸化后,液泡膜H+-ATPase的ATP水解和质子转运过程均被激活.激活的活性可以被碱性磷酸酶逆转.以上结果说明玉米根尖细胞的液泡膜中存在一种可能是CDPK的蛋白激酶.由它造成的Ca2+依赖的磷酸化作用激活了液泡膜H+-ATPase的活性.这些结果将有助于深入研究CDPK在植物细胞信号转导中的功能.  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

The contribution of Ca2+ entry through different voltage-activated Ca2+ channel (VACC) subtypes to the phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) was examined in bovine adrenal-medullary chromaffin cells. High K+ depolarization (40 mM, 3 min) induced ERK phosphorylation, an effect that was inhibited by specific mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors. By using selective inhibitors, we observed that depolarization-induced ERK phosphorylation completely depended on protein kinase C-alpha (PKC-alpha), but not on Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase nor cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Blockade of L-type Ca2+ channels by 3 microm furnidipine, or blockade of N channels by 1 micromomega-conotoxin GVIA reduced ERK phosphorylation by 70%, while the inhibition of P/Q channels by 1 micromomega-agatoxin IVA only caused a 40% reduction. The simultaneous blockade of L and N, or P/Q and N channels completely abolished this response, yet 23% ERK phosphorylation remained when L and P/Q channels were simultaneously blocked. Confocal imaging of cytosolic Ca2+ elevations elicited by 40 mm K+, showed that Ca2+ levels increased throughout the entire cytosol, both in the presence and the absence of Ca2+ channel blockers. Fifty-eight percent of the fluorescence rise depended on Ca2+ entering through N channels. Thus, ERK phosphorylation seems to depend on a critical level of Ca2+ in the cytosol rather than on activation of a given Ca2+ channel subtype.  相似文献

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I (CaMKI), originally identified as a protein kinase phosphorylating synapsin I, has been shown to constitute a family of closely related isoforms (alpha, beta and gamma). Here, we have isolated and determined the complete primary structures of two alternatively splicing isoforms of CaMKI termed CaMKI gamma 1 and -gamma 2. CaMKI gamma 1 and -gamma 2 contain an identical N-terminal catalytic domain with different C-terminal regions due to the deletion of the 425-bp nucleotide sequence of CaMKI gamma 1 in CaMKI gamma 2. In vitro kinase assay has demonstrated the marked enhancement of the Ca2+/CaM-dependent activity of CaMKI gamma 1 by the preincubation with Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK), but no significant activation of CaMKI gamma 2. Northern blot analysis has demonstrated the predominant expression of CaMKI gamma in the brain. RT-PCR analysis has revealed similar expression patterns between CaMKI gamma 1 and CaMKI gamma 2 in various brain regions. In situ hybridization analysis has demonstrated that CaMKI gamma mRNA is expressed in a distinct pattern from other isoforms of CaMKI with predominant expression in some restricted brain regions such as the olfactory bulb, hippocampal pyramidal cell layer of CA3, central amygdaloid nuclei, ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus and pineal gland. In the primary hippocampal neurons and NG108-15 cells, transfected CaMKI gamma 1 and -gamma 2 are localized primarily in the cytoplasm and neurites but not in the nucleus. These findings suggest that both isoforms of CaMKI gamma may be involved in Ca2+ signal transduction in the cytoplasmic compartment of certain neuronal population.  相似文献

Glutamate receptor activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signalling cascades has been implicated in diverse neuronal functions such as synaptic plasticity, development and excitotoxicity. We have previously shown that Ca2+-influx through NMDA receptors in cultured striatal neurones mediates the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) through a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase)-dependent pathway. Exposing neurones to the Src family tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2, but not the inactive analogue PP3, inhibited NMDA receptor-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and Akt/PKB in a concentration-dependent manner, and reduced cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation. To establish a link between Src family tyrosine kinase-mediated phosphorylation and PI 3-kinase signalling, affinity precipitation experiments were performed with the SH2 domains of the PI 3-kinase regulatory subunit p85. This revealed a Src-dependent phosphorylation of a focal adhesion kinase (FAK)-p85 complex on glutamate stimulation. Demonstrating that PI3-kinase is not ubiquitously involved in NMDA receptor signal transduction, the PI 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 did not prevent NMDA receptor Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1/2 (JNK1/2). Further, inhibiting Src family kinases increased NMDA receptor-dependent JNK1/2 phosphorylation, suggesting that Src family kinase-dependent cascades may physiologically limit signalling to JNK. These results demonstrate that Src family tyrosine kinases and PI3-kinase are pivotal regulators of NMDA receptor signalling to ERK/Akt and JNK in striatal neurones.  相似文献

Protein kinases in plants have not been examined in detail, but protein phosphorylation has been shown to be essential for regulating plant growth via the signal transduction system. A Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, possibly involved in the intracellular signal transduction system from rice leaves, was partially purified by sequential chromatography on DE52, Phenyl Superose and Superose 12. This protein kinase phosphorylated the substrate, histone III-S, in the presence of Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine. The apparent molecular mass of the Ca2+- and phosphatidylserine-dependent protein kinase (Ca2+/PS PK), determined by phosphorylation in SDS-polyacrylamide gel containing histone III-S, was 50 kDa. The protein kinase differed from Ca2+-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) in rice leaves in that Ca2+/PS PK showed phospholipid dependency and the molecular mass of Ca2+/PS PK exceeded that of CDPK. Investigations were carried out on changes in Ca2+/PS PK and CDPK activity in the cytosolic and membrane fractions during germination. The maximum activity of Ca2+/PS PK in the cytosolic fraction was observed before imbibition and that of CDPK in the membrane fraction was noted at 6 days following imbibition. Protein kinases are likely to regulate plant growth through protein phosphorylation.  相似文献

As reports on G protein-coupled receptor signal transduction mechanisms continue to emphasize potential differences in signaling due to relative receptor levels and cell type specificities, the need to study endogenously expressed receptors in appropriate model systems becomes increasingly important. Here we examine signal transduction mechanisms mediated by endogenous kappa-opioid receptors in C6 glioma cells, an astrocytic model system. We find that the kappa-opioid receptor-selective agonist U69,593 stimulates phospholipase C activity, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation, PYK2 phosphorylation, and DNA synthesis. U69,593-stimulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is shown to be upstream of DNA synthesis as inhibition of signaling components such as pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, L-type Ca2+ channels, phospholipase C, intracellular Ca2+ release, protein kinase C, and mitogen-activated protein or extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase blocks both of these downstream events. In addition, by overexpressing dominant-negative or sequestering mutants, we provide evidence that extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation is Ras-dependent and transduced by Gbetagamma subunits. In summary, we have delineated major features of the mechanism of the mitogenic action of an agonist of the endogenous kappa-opioid receptor in C6 glioma cells.  相似文献

Geldanamycin is an antitumor drug that binds HSP90 and induces a wide range of heat shock proteins, including HSP70s. In this study we report that the induction of HSP70s is dose-dependent in geldanamycin-treated human non-small cell lung cancer H460 cells. Analysis of the induction of HSP70s specific isoform using LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis and Northern blotting showed that HSP70-1/2 are the major inducible forms under geldanamycin treatment. Transactivation of hsp70-1/2 was determined by electrophoretic mobility-shift assay using heat shock element (HSE) as a probe. The signaling pathway mediators involved in hsp70-1/2 transactivation were screened by the kinase inhibitor scanning technique. Pretreatment with serine/threonine protein kinase inhibitors H7 or H8 blocked geldanamycin-induced HSP70-1/2, whereas protein kinase A inhibitor HA1004, protein kinase G inhibitor KT5823, and myosin light chain kinase inhibitor ML-7 had no effect. Furthermore, the protein kinase C (PKC)-specific inhibitor Ro-31-8425 and the Ca2+-dependent PKC inhibitor G?-6976 diminished geldanamycin-induced HSP70-1/2, suggesting an involvement of the PKC in the process. In addition, geldanamycin treatment causes a transient increase of intracellular Ca2+. Chelating intracellular Ca2+ with BAPTA-AM or depletion of intracellular Ca2+ store with A23187 or thapsigargin significantly decreased geldanamycin-transactivated HSP70-1/2 expression. Taken together, our results demonstrate that geldanamycin-induced specific HSP70-1/2 isoforms expression in H460 cells through signaling pathway mediated by Ca2+ and PKC.  相似文献

Spontaneous DNA repair in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) has been recently described. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether spontaneous DNA repair is Ca(2+)-dependent, as in vitro-stimulated DNA repair. Spontaneous DNA repair in PBMC was measured in a 1mM Ca2+ medium. The effect of extracellular Ca2+ chelation by EGTA, intracellular Ca2+ chelation by bapta-AM, and Ca2+ loading by the ionophore A23187 was examined. The signal transduction pathway was evaluated by inhibiting protein tyrosine kinase with genistein, calmodulin with W7, and calcineurin with cyclosporin A and tacrolimus. Extracellular Ca2+ chelation had no effect on spontaneous DNA repair, while both intracellular chelation and calcium overloading inhibited the DNA repair. Inhibition of protein tyrosine kinase, calmodulin or calcineurin reduced DNA repair. In conclusion, spontaneous DNA repair is mainly Ca(2+)-dependent at a narrow range of intracellular Ca2+ concentrations. The signal transduction cascade includes protein tyrosine kinase, calmodulin, and calcineurin.  相似文献

The human mast cell line (HMC-1(560)) was used to study the effects of tyrosine kinase (TyrK) inhibition on histamine release in consequence of intracellular Ca2+ or pH changes. This is important since the TyrK inhibitor STI571 (Glivec) inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in HMC-1(560). HMC-1(560) cells have a mutation in c-kit, which leads to a permanent phosphorylation of the KIT protein and their ligand-independent proliferation. The TyrK inhibitors STI571, lavendustin A and genistein decrease spontaneous histamine release in 24-h pre-incubated cells. Results are compared with those of the mast cell stabiliser cromoglycic acid, which also drops spontaneous histamine release. When exocytosis is stimulated by alkalinisation, STI571 pre-incubated cells release more histamine than non-pre-incubated cells. Alkalinisation-induced histamine release reaches still higher levels in STI571 cells with activated protein kinase C (PKC) by PMA. We do not observe modifications on histamine release in cells, treated with PKC inhibitors (rottlerin, Gf109203 or G?6976). Lavendustin A- and genistein 24-h incubated cells behave similar to STI571 cells, whereas cromoglycic acid does not show effects after stimulation with alkalinisation. Stimulation of exocytosis with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin does not modify histamine response in TyrK inhibited cells. Ca2+ and pH changes are observed after long-time incubation with STI571. Results show that pH is still higher in STI571 pre-incubated cells after alkalinisation with NH4Cl, whereas intracellular Ca2+ concentration remains stable. This work further strength the importance of pHi as a cell signal and suggest that STI571 has transduction pathways in common with other TyrKs.  相似文献

We characterized pharmacologically the hypersensitive cell death of tobacco BY-2 cells that followed treatments with Escherichia coli preparations of INF1, the major secreted elicitin of the late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans. INF1 elicitin treatments resulted in fragmentation and 180 bp laddering of tobacco DNA as early as 3 h post-treatment. INF1 elicitin also induced rapid accumulation of H2O2 typical of oxidative burst, and the expression of defense genes such as phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) gene at 1 h and 3 h after elicitin treatment, respectively. To investigate the involvement of the oxidative burst and/or the expression of defense genes in the signal transduction pathways leading to hypersensitive cell death, we analyzed the effect of several chemical inhibitors of signal transduction pathways on the various responses. The results indicated that (a) the cell death required serine proteases, Ca2+ and protein kinases, (b) the oxidative burst was involved in Ca2+ and protein kinase mediated pathways, but elicitin-induced AOS was neither necessary nor sufficient for cell death and PAL gene expression, and (c) the signaling pathway of PAL gene expression required protein kinases. These results suggest that the three signal transduction pathways leading to cell death, oxidative burst and expression of defense genes branch in the early stages that follow elicitin recognition by tobacco cells.  相似文献

Many membrane proteins are implicated in the regulation of cell functions by triggering specific signaling pathways. Porins are known potential modulators of cell proliferation and differentiation. We explored the possible involvement of this protein in signal transduction pathways in mouse gut macrophages. In the present work we have shown that porins can trigger signal transduction in mouse macrophages infected with S. typhimurium. Activation of macrophages by porins results in an increase in inositol trisphosphate and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. There is a translocation of protein kinase C to the membrane which is accompanied by nitric oxide release within the macrophages. This effect is the outcome of the expression of nitric oxide synthase, which is dependent on Protein kinase C. Further, we observed that there is an increased binding of the porins on macrophages infected with S. typhimurium which results in activation of macrophages and triggering of specific signaling pathways. These results indicate that porins induce the production of nitric oxide via a protein kinase C dependent pathway. Nitric oxide plays a fundamental role in macrophage effector function where it has both communication and defensive function.  相似文献

Polyamines (PAs) play important roles in cell proliferation, growth and environmental stress responses of all living organisms. In this study, we examine whether these compounds act as signal mediators. Spermine (Spm) specifically activated protein kinases of tobacco leaves, which were identified as salicylic acid (SA)-induced protein kinase (SIPK) and wound-induced protein kinase (WIPK), using specific antibodies. Upon Spm treatment, upregulation of WIPK, but not SIPK, was observed. Spm-induced mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) activation and WIPK upregulation were prevented upon pre-treatment with antioxidants and Ca2+ channel blockers. Additionally, Spm specifically stimulated expression of the alternative oxidase (AOX) gene, which was disrupted by these antioxidants and Ca2+ channel blockers. Bongkrekic acid (BK), an inhibitor of the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition (PT) pores, suppressed MAPKs activation and accumulation of WIPK and AOX mRNA. Our data collectively suggest that Spm causes mitochondrial dysfunction via a signalling pathway in which reactive oxygen species and Ca2+ influx are involved. As a result, the phosphorylation activities of the two MAPK enzymes SIPK and WIPK are stimulated.  相似文献

cDNA clones of chimeric Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CCaMK) from tobacco (TCCaMK-1 and TCCaMK-2) were isolated and characterized. The polypeptides encoded by TCCaMK-1 and TCCaMK-2 have 15 different amino acid substitutions, yet they both contain a total of 517 amino acids. Northern analysis revealed that CCaMK is expressed in a stage-specific manner during anther development. Messenger RNA was detected when tobacco bud sizes were between 0.5 cm and 1.0 cm. The appearance of mRNA coincided with meiosis and became undetectable at later stages of anther development. The reverse polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification assay using isoform-specific primers showed that both of the CCaMK mRNAs were expressed in anther with similar expression patterns. The CCaMK protein expressed in Escherichia coli showed Ca2+-dependent autophosphorylation and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent substrate phosphorylation. Calmodulin isoforms (PCM1 and PCM6) had differential effects on the regulation of autophosphorylation and substrate phosphorylation of tobacco CCaMK, but not lily CCaMK. The evolutionary tree of plant serine/threonine protein kinases revealed that calmodulin-dependent kinases form one subgroup that is distinctly different from Ca2+-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) and other serine/threonine kinases in plants.  相似文献

CBL-CIPK是高等植物中广泛存在的一类解析Ca~(2+)信号的蛋白。该研究在前期工作基础上,对甘蓝型油菜(Brassica napus L.)的BnaCIPK15基因进行了亚细胞定位、双分子荧光互补(BiFC)、酵母双杂交和qRT-PCR检测等一系列分析,以探究BnaCIPK15蛋白在ABA激素响应中的作用。结果显示:(1)亚细胞定位发现,BnaCIPK15蛋白定位于细胞质和细胞核中; BiFC分析发现,BnaCIPK15蛋白与BnaCBL1/3/4/9蛋白之间的互作较强,与BnaCBL10仅有微弱互作。(2)qRT-PCR检测发现,BnaCIPK15基因受ABA和冷胁迫的诱导极显著上调表达,而对百草枯(Paraquat)、活性氧(H_2O_2)和热胁迫的诱导较弱,表明BnaCIPK15基因很可能参与ABA和冷胁迫的调控过程。(3)酵母滴定实验结果显示,BnaCIPK15蛋白与脱落酸(ABA)信号通路中的BnaHAB1蛋白(属于蛋白磷酸酶PP2C家族)存在明显的互作,而与BnaABFs/AREB3/ABI5转录因子无明显互作;BiFC验证显示,BnaCIPK15与BnaHAB1蛋白之间存在互作信号,而BnaCIPK15与BnaHAB2组合没有观察到信号,证明BnaCIPK15与BnaHAB1磷酸酶具有特异互作特征,推测BnaCIPK15可能参与调控ABA信号转导。研究认为,甘蓝型油菜中可能存在基于BnaCIPK15-BnaHAB1的互作模块,并参与ABA的信号转导和网络调控。  相似文献
