钙调素对钙调素结合蛋白-10和玉米非特异性脂转移蛋白与脂质结合活性的影响

荧光标记的脂质结合实验表明,钙调素结合蛋白-10（CaMBP-10）具有典型的植物非特异性脂质转移蛋白与脂质结合的特性。进一步实验研究了钙调素（calmodulin,CaM）对CaMBP-10和玉米nsLTP与脂质结合的活性的影响,结果显示无论在有钙和无钙条件下,CaM对两者的影响均有不同之处,W-7和TFP能消除CaM的影响。提示CaM不仅与CaMBP-10和玉米nsLTP特异性相互作用,而且对2种脂转移蛋白可能具有不同的调节机制。     

豌豆质膜内源CDPK对植物转脂蛋白CaMBP-10的磷酸化及CaMBP-10对激酶自磷酸化的影响

植物转脂蛋白（LTPs）是多基因编码的蛋白家族,广泛分布于高等植物.虽然LTPs的确切功能至今仍不完全清楚,但它参与植物生物、非生物胁迫反应以及它的抗性功能已成为近年来的研究热点.关于LTPs功能的调节机制目前几乎一无所知.最近,从白菜中分离的钙调素结合蛋白-10（CaMBP-10）被鉴定为植物转脂蛋白家族成员,并且,体外实验证明钙调素（CaM）调节其脂质结合活性.为了深入了解转脂蛋白功能的调节机制,本文研究了CaMBP-10的磷酸化作用,发现CaMBP-10可被豌豆质膜内源性蛋白激酶磷酸化,钙离子（Ca2＋）能刺激磷酸化,钙螯合剂EGTA以及CaM拮抗剂W-7和TFP均能显著抑制磷酸化.免疫印迹分析最终确定该激酶为CDPK家族成员.构建突变体进一步研究了CaMBP-10的磷酸化位点,发现其位于蛋白的C-末端区域,并与已确定的CaM结合位点重合.同时,分析结果表明CaM能抑制CaMBP-10的磷酸化.反之,CaMBP-10的磷酸化又能阻断其与CaM的结合,显示出两种调节方式相互竞争的特点.为深入研究磷酸化作用对CaMBP-10脂质结合活性的影响,构建突变体（Ser83Asp,Ser85Asp）以模拟磷酸化状态.实验结果显示,磷酸化作用能显著增强CaMBP-10的脂质结合活性,而且突变体的脂质结合活性不受CaM的影响.采用胶内磷酸化测定法（in-gelkinaseassay）研究了激酶的自磷酸化特点以及CaMBP-10对激酶自磷酸化的影响,发现CaMBP-10能激活激酶的自磷酸化,激酶的自磷酸化又能促进其对底物的磷酸化作用.这样,激酶的自磷酸化与底物的磷酸化形成一种＂正反馈环＂的调节模式.综合研究结果,本文首次证明了LTP受CaM结合和CDPK磷酸化的双重调节.而且,CaM结合位点与磷酸化位点的重合预示可能存在特殊的调节机制,以协同应答胞内的Ca2＋信号.

A soluble auxin-binding protein, ABP57. Purification with anti-bovine serum albumin antibody and characterization of its mechanistic role in the auxin effect on plant plasma membrane H+-ATPase

ABP(57) is an auxin-binding protein that possesses receptor function. In this study, a protocol for ABP(57) purification was developed on the basis of cross-reactivity shown between ABP(57) and antisera raised against bovine serum albumin, which enabled us to purify ABP(57) with a high yield and to further characterize it. ABP(57) activates plant plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase (PM H(+)-ATPase) via direct interaction. The binding of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) to the primary binding site on ABP(57) caused a marked increase in the affinity of ABP(57) for PM H(+)-ATPase, which was accompanied by a change in ABP(57) conformation. Meanwhile, additional IAA binding to the secondary site on ABP(57) nullified the initial effect without inducing further conformational change. When ABP(57) with IAA occupying only the primary site interacted with PM H(+)-ATPase, no IAA could access the secondary site. These results suggest that IAA-induced biphasic alteration in the affinity of ABP(57) for PM H(+)-ATPase correlates with a bell-shaped dose response of the enzyme to IAA. There is also a possibility that, whereas the stimulation phase of the response is associated with a conformational change of ABP(57), the destimulation phase probably results from hindrance arising directly from the presence of IAA at the secondary site.     

A major isoform of the maize plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase: characterization and induction by auxin in coleoptiles.

The plasma membrane (PM) H(+)-ATPase has been proposed to play important transport and regulatory roles in plant physiology, including its participation in auxin-induced acidification in coleoptile segments. This enzyme is encoded by a family of genes differing in tissue distribution, regulation, and expression level. A major expressed isoform of the maize PM H(+)-ATPase (MHA2) has been characterized. RNA gel blot analysis indicated that MHA2 is expressed in all maize organs, with highest levels being in the roots. In situ hybridization of sections from maize seedlings indicated enriched expression of MHA2 in stomatal guard cells, phloem cells, and root epidermal cells. MHA2 mRNA was induced threefold when nonvascular parts of the coleoptile segments were treated with auxin. This induction correlates with auxin-triggered proton extrusion by the same part of the segments. The PM H(+)-ATPase in the vascular bundies does not contribute significantly to auxin-induced acidification, is not regulated by auxin, and masks the auxin effect in extracts of whole coleoptile segments. We conclude that auxin-induced acidification in coleoptile segments most often occurs in the nonvascular tissue and is mediated, at least in part, by increased levels of MHA2.     

ABA、IAA和CaM对发育菜豆子叶质膜H~＋－ATPase活力的效应

以亲水性两相分配法从发育菜豆子叶制备的质膜制剂经冻融循环操作,部分膜微囊可转变成密闭的翻转型。取冻融４次的质膜微囊用于Ｈ＋－ＡＴＰａｓｅ试验表明,ＡＴＰａｓｅ活力为ＡＢＡ和ＣａＭ显著地激活,但受ＩＡＡ显著抑制;质子泵活力被ＡＢＡ显著促进,但为ＣａＭ显著抑制,ＩＡＡ对质子泵活力无显著效应。可以认为：ＡＢＡ促进发育菜豆子叶吸收光合同化物可能是通过促进质膜Ｈ＋－ＡＴＰａｓｅ活力,从而促进质子／蔗糖同向运输而获得;ＩＡＡ则可能对菜豆子叶的质膜Ｈ＋－ＡＴＰａｓｅ无显著效应。在激素信号传导途径中,ＣａＭ对质膜Ｈ＋－ＡＴＰａｓｅ活力可能无直接影响。

Interactive effects of temperature and heavy metals (Cd, Pb) on the elongation growth in maize coleoptiles

The effect of Cd and Pb on endogenous and IAA-induced elongation growth and medium pH of maize coleoptile segments incubated at 20, 25 and 30 °C was studied. It was found that the elongation of coleoptile segments and proton extrusion increased with the temperature and reached its maximum at 30 °C. For Cd, the maximal inhibition of endogenous and IAA-induced growth as well as medium acidification of coleoptile segments was observed at 25 °C. Meanwhile, Pb, irrespective of the temperature, diminished the growth of the segments by ca. 20%, increasing the acidification of the incubation medium. It was also found that in contrast to Cd, Pb accumulation in maize coleoptile segments did not correlate with temperature. The results suggest that the toxic effect of Cd on elongation growth of coleoptile segments is connected with the decrease of the PM H(+)-ATPase activity and probably with Cd-induced high acivity of IAA oxidase, whereas the effect of Pb did not depend on activity of any of the enzymes.     

Effect of cadmium on growth, proton extrusion and membrane potential in maize coleoptile segments

Cd accumulation, its effects on elongation growth of maize coleoptile segments, pH changes of their incubation medium and the membrane potential of parenchymal cells were studied. The Cd content increased significantly with exposure to increasing cadmium concentrations. Coleoptile segments accumulated the metal more efficiently in the range 10–100 μM Cd, than in the range 100–1000 μM Cd. Cd at concentrations higher than 1.0 μM produced a significant inhibition of both growth and proton extrusion. 100 μM Cd caused depolarization of the plasma membrane (PM) potential in parenchymal cells. The simultaneous treatment of maize coleoptile segments by indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and Cd, counteracted the toxic effect of Cd on growth. Moreover, our data also showed that 100 μM Cd suppressed the characteristic IAA-induced hyperpolarization of the membrane potential, causing membrane depolarization. These results indicate that the toxic effect of Cd on growth of maize coleoptile segments might be, at least in part, caused via reduced PM H⁺-ATPase activity.     

Cellular responses to naphthoquinones: juglone as a case study

The effects of juglone (JG) on the endogenous growth, growth in the presence of either indoleacetic acid (IAA) or fusicoccin (FC) and on proton extrusion were studied in maize coleoptile segments. In addition, membrane potential changes were also determined at chosen JG concentrations. It was found that JG, when added to the incubation medium, inhibited endogenous growth as well as growth in the presence of either IAA or FC. Simultaneous measurements of growth and external pH indicated that inhibition of either IAA-induced growth or proton extrusion by JG was a linear function of JG concentration. Addition of JG to the control medium caused depolarization of the membrane potential (E_m), value of which was dependent on JG concentration and time after its administration. Hyperpolarization of E_m induced by IAA was suppressed in the presence of JG. It was also found that for coleoptile segments initially preincubated with JG, although subsequently removed, addition of IAA was not effective in the stimulation of growth and medium acidification. Taken together, these results suggest that the mechanism by which JG inhibits the IAA-induced growth of maize coleoptile segments involves inhibition of PM H⁺-ATPase activity.     

Effect of temperature on growth,proton extrusion and membrane potential in maize (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Zea mays</Emphasis> L.) coleoptile segments

The effects of temperature (5–45°C) on endogenous growth, growth in the presence of either indoleacetic acid (IAA) or fusicoccin (FC), and proton extrusion in maize coleoptile segments were studied. In addition, membrane potential changes at some temperatures were also determined. It was found that in this model system endogenous growth exhibits a clear maximum at 30°C, whereas growth in the presence of IAA and FC shows the maximum value in the range 30–35°C and 35–40°C, respectively. Simultaneous measurements of growth and external medium pH indicated that FC at stressful temperatures was not only much more active in the stimulation of growth, but was also more effective in acidifying the external medium than IAA. Also the addition of either IAA or FC to the bathing medium at 30 and 40°C did not change the kinetic characteristic of membrane potential changes observed for both substances at 25°C. However, the increased temperature significantly decreased IAA and FC-induced membrane hyperpolarization. IAA in the incubation medium, at 10°C, brought about additional membrane depolarization (apart from the one induced by low temperature). In contrast to IAA, FC at 10°C caused gradual repolarization of membrane potential, which correlated with both FC-induced growth and FC-induced proton extrusion. A plausible interpretation for temperature-induced changes in growth of maize coleoptile segments is that, at least in part, these changes were mediated via a PM H⁺-ATPase activity.     

IAA stimulates pollen tube growth and mediates the modification of its wall composition and structure in Torenia fournieri

The effects of several hormones on pollen tube growth were compared in Torenia fournieri and it was found that IAA was the most effective, stimulating pollen tube growth and causing the shank part of pollen tubes to be slender and straighter. The role of IAA was investigated by studying the changes in ultrastructure and PM H(+)-ATPase distribution in the pollen tubes and the modification of the tube wall. Using the fluorescent marker FM4-64, together with transmission electron microscopy, it was shown that secretory vesicles and mitochondria increased in IAA-treated tubes. Immunolocalization and fluorescence labelling, together with Fourier-transform infrared analysis, detected that IAA enhanced the level of PM H(+)-ATPase and the synthesis of pectins, and reduced the cellulose density in pollen tubes. Importantly, to observe the orientation of cellulose microfibrils in pollen tubes in situ, atomic force microscopy was used to examine the 'intact' tube wall. Atomic force microscopy images showed that cellulose microfibrils were parallel to each other in the subapical region of IAA-treated tubes, but disorganized in control tubes. All results provided new insights into the functions of cellulose microfibrils in pollen tube growth and direction, and revealed that the IAA-induced changes of pollen tubes were attributed to the increase in secretory vesicles, mitochondria, and PM H(+)-ATPase, and the modification of pectin and cellulose microfibrils in the tube wall.
