盐胁迫下大麦幼苗多胺的种类和状态与多胺氧化酶活性的关系 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
200 mmol/L的NaCl胁迫8 d大麦幼苗叶片和根系中的三种形态多胺都有不同程度地下降,其中游离态多胺含量的下降幅度最大;高氯酸不溶性结合态多胺含量变化较小.根系中PAO的活性先上升后下降,而叶片中PAO的活性先下降后上升.游离态多胺中,亚精胺和精胺(Spd Spm)的含量变化与相应部位PAO的活性变化趋势相反,表明PAO在盐胁迫下可能调节了游离态多胺的含量从而影响高氯酸可溶结合态与高氯酸不溶结合态多胺的含量. 相似文献

Radio receptor assay (RRA) was adopted to analyse the influence of CCK-8 on 3H-etorphine binding to opiate receptors in rat brain synaptosomal membranes (P2). In the competition experiment CCK-8 (1pM to 1 microM) suppressed the binding of 3H-etorphine. This effect was completely reversed by proglumide at 1 microM. Rosenthal analysis for saturation revealed two populations of 3H-etorphine binding sites. CCK-8 (1pM to 1 microM) inhibited 3H-etorphine binding to the high affinity sites by an increase in Kd (up to +235%) and decrease in Bmax (up to -80%) without significant changes in the Kd and Bmax of the low affinity sites. This effect of CCK-8 (10nM) was also completely reversed by proglumide at 1 microM. Unsulfated CCK-8 (100pM to 1 microM) produced only a slight increase in Kd of the high affinity sites (+64%) without affecting Bmax. The results suggest that CCK-8 might be capable of suppressing the high affinity opioid binding sites via the activation of CCK receptor. 相似文献

A high amount of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) binding protein was observed in the porcine spleen. It was solubilized and partially purified from spleen membrane with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl) dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS). Scatchard analysis indicated the presence of a single class of receptor with Kd and Bmax values of 0.26 nM and 120 fmol/mg protein, respectively. The receptor was specific for LTB4, and Ki values for 20-hydroxy- and 20-carboxy-LTB4, both inactive metabolites of LTB4, were 1.7 nM and over 1,000 nM, respectively. By the addition of 10 microM GTP gamma S, a low affinity binding site appeared with a Kd value of 390 nM. A pretreatment of the receptor-GTP binding protein complex with islet-activating protein (IAP) increased the inhibitory effect of GTP gamma S on LTB4 binding, indicating that the LTB4 receptor is coupled with an IAP-sensitive GTP-binding protein in the porcine spleen. 相似文献

Polyamine oxidases (PAOs) are FAD-dependent enzymes involved in polyamine catabolism. All so far characterized PAOs from monocotyledonous plants, such as the apoplastic maize PAO, oxidize spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) to produce 1,3-diaminopropane, H(2)O(2), and an aminoaldehyde, and are thus considered to be involved in a terminal catabolic pathway. Mammalian PAOs oxidize Spm or Spd (and/or their acetyl derivatives) differently from monocotyledonous PAOs, producing Spd or putrescine, respectively, in addition to H(2)O(2) and an aminoaldehyde, and are therefore involved in a polyamine back-conversion pathway. In Arabidopsis thaliana, five PAOs (AtPAO1-AtPAO5) are present with cytosolic or peroxisomal localization and three of them (the peroxisomal AtPAO2, AtPAO3, and AtPAO4) form a distinct PAO subfamily. Here, a comparative study of the catalytic properties of recombinant AtPAO1, AtPAO2, AtPAO3, and AtPAO4 is presented, which shows that all four enzymes strongly resemble their mammalian counterparts, being able to oxidize the common polyamines Spd and/or Spm through a polyamine back-conversion pathway. The existence of this pathway in Arabidopsis plants is also evidenced in vivo. These enzymes are also able to oxidize the naturally occurring uncommon polyamines norspermine and thermospermine, the latter being involved in important plant developmental processes. Furthermore, data herein reveal some important differences in substrate specificity among the various AtPAOs, which suggest functional diversity inside the AtPAO gene family. These results represent a new starting point for further understanding of the physiological role(s) of the polyamine catabolic pathways in plants. 相似文献

Characterization of neuropeptide Y binding sites in rat cardiac ventricular membranes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) binding sites in rat cardiac ventricular membranes have been characterized in detail. 125I-NPY bound to the membranes with high affinity. Binding was saturable, reversible and specific, and depended on time, pH and temperature. Analysis of the binding data obtained under optimal conditions, 2 hr, 18 degrees C and at pH 7.5, revealed the presence of low and high affinity binding sites. The high affinity binding sites had an apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.38 nM and a binding capacity (Bmax) of 7.13 fmol/mg protein. The apparent Kd and Bmax for low affinity binding sites were 22.34 nM and 261.25 fmol/mg protein, respectively. Peptides unrelated to NPY did not compete with 125I-NPY for the binding sites even at 1 microM concentrations, whereas homologous peptides, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), and NPY(13-36) inhibited 125I-NPY binding but with lower potency compared to NPY. 125I-NPY binding was sensitive to the nonhydrolyzable GTP analog, Gpp(NH)p, suggesting that the NPY receptor is coupled to the adenylate cyclase system. The ventricular membrane receptor characterized in this study may play an important role in mediating the physiological effects of NPY in the heart. 相似文献

Polyamines, including spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd), are aliphatic cations that are reportedly synthesized by all living organisms. They exert pleiotropic effects on cells and are required for efficient nucleic acid and protein synthesis. Here, we report that the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus lacks identifiable polyamine biosynthetic genes, and consequently produces no Spm/Spd or their precursor compounds putrescine and agmatine. Moreover, while supplementing defined medium with polyamines generally enhances bacterial growth, Spm and Spd exert bactericidal effects on S. aureus at physiological concentrations. Small colony variants specifically lacking menaquinone biosynthesis arose after prolonged Spm exposure and exhibited reduced polyamine sensitivity. However, other respiratory-defective mutants were no less susceptible to Spm implying menaquinone itself rather than general respiration is required for full Spm toxicity. Polyamine hypersensitivity distinguishes S. aureus from other bacteria and is exhibited by all tested strains save those belonging to the USA-300 group of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA). We identified one gene within the USA-300-specific arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) encoding a Spm/Spd N-acetyltransferase that is necessary and sufficient for polyamine resistance. S. aureus encounters significant polyamine levels during infection; however, the acquisition of ACME encoded speG allows USA-300 clones to circumvent polyamine hypersensitivity, a peculiar trait of S. aureus. 相似文献

Of the three biological polyamines, putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), and spermine (Spm), the relevance of Spm to cell proliferation has yet to be defined because of our general inability to deplete it selectively in intact cells. In the present study, Spm depletion was accomplished by treating cultured L1210 cells for 96 hr with alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and an analog of Spd such as aminopropylcadaverine, N4-methylSpd, N4-ethylSpd, or homoSpd. DFMO, a specific inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, halts continued polyamine biosynthesis and the Spd analog serves as a functional substitute for Spd. Thus, while the Spd analog fulfills the role(s) of Spd in cell proliferation, Spm becomes steadily depleted. In cells treated with DFMO plus the analog, aminopropylcadaverine, Spm pools decline steadily and growth inhibition occus after 48 hr (when Spm pools decline to 60% of control). By 96 hr, Spm is approximately 15% of control and growth is less than 30%. Prevention studies with exogenous polyamines confirm a causal relationship between Spm depletion and growth inhibition. The critical levels of polyamines for cell proliferation to take place were found to be 30% of control for Spd and 60% for Spm. The use of DFMO plus a Spd analog is proposed as a system for studying the cellular consequences of Spm depletion. Spd depletion can be achieved for comparison purposes by treating cells with DFMO alone. 相似文献

Biogenic amines spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) are essential for cell growth. Polyamine analogs are widely used to investigate the enzymes of polyamine metabolism and the functions of spermine and spermidine in vitro and in vivo. It was demonstrated recently that α-methylated derivatives of Spm and Spd are able to fulfill the key cellular functions of polyamines, moreover, in some cases, the effects of (R) and (S) isomers were actually different. Using these α-methylated analogs of Spm and Spd, it turned possible to prevent the development of acute pancreatitis in SSAT-transgenic rats with controllable expression of the Spm/Spd N1-acetyltransferase gene. The analogs made it possible to reveal dormant stereospecificity of polyamine oxidase, Spm oxidase, and deoxyhypusine synthase. An original approach was suggested to regulate the stereospecificity of polyamine oxidase. Depletion of the intracellular polyamine pool was found to have both hypusine-related consequences and consequences unrelated to posttranslational modification of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF5A. Possible applications of a new family of C-methylated polyamine analogs for the investigation and regulation of polyamine metabolism in vitro and in vivo are discussed. 相似文献

The binding of (+)-[3H]5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d] cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate ([3H]MK-801) and N-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]-3,4-[3H]piperidine ([3H]TCP) to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex of human brain has been investigated. Significant differences were noted between the binding of the two ligands in the same tissue samples. Binding of both ligands was stimulated by addition of glutamic acid or glycine. However, addition of both compounds resulted in an additional effect with [3H]MK-801 but not [3H]TCP binding. Saturation analysis revealed approximately twice as many high-affinity sites for [3H]MK-801 (Bmax, 1,500 +/- 300 fmol/mg of protein) than for [3H]TCP (Bmax, 660 +/- 170 fmol/mg of protein). In addition, a low-affinity site was detected for [3H]MK-801 binding but not [3H]TCP binding. The pharmacology of the high-affinity [3H]MK-801 and [3H]TCP binding sites was similar with rank order of potency of inhibitors being MK801 greater than TCP greater than phencyclidine greater than N-allylnormetazocine (SKF 10047). 2-Amino-5-phosphonopentanoate inhibited binding of both ligands with comparable potency whereas both 7-chlorokynurenic acid and ZnCl2 were more potent inhibitors of [3H]MK-801 than of [3H]TCP binding. All compounds examined exhibited Hill coefficients of significantly less than unity. Saturation analysis performed in the striatum revealed that the number of binding sites was the same for both [3H]MK-801 (Bmax, 1,403 +/- 394 fmol/mg) and [3H]TCP (Bmax, 1,292 +/- 305 fmol/mg). Addition of glutamate or glycine stimulated striatal binding but there was no further increase on addition of both together.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Changes in polyamine content during in vivo maturation and in vitro culture of maize (Zea mays L.) pollen were studied. The endogenous content of free, conjugated and bound polyamines was analyzed during 30 days of pollen evolution, in both developmental pathways (microsporogenesis and androgenesis). The induction of androgenesis from cold-pretreated uninucleate pollen results, in most of cases, in a lower total polyamine content than that of the in vivo uninucleate pollen. These differences indicate that polyamine metabolism is altered during the induction of androgenesis, and this could be a consequence of increased polyamine assimilation. In general, pollen stages that involve cell division (tetrades, pre-anthesis pollen and four-day cultured pollen) are characterized by a predominance of free Spd. The increase of Spd and Spm in 15-day cultured pollen, when the first embryoids are formed, outline the possible implication of these polyamines in embryogenetic processes. Furthermore, these findings may contribute to the improvement of maize androgenesis yield, especially in recalcitrant genotypes, by the exogenous application of polyamines or polyamine-inhibitors to the culture medium.Abbreviations PAs

Polyamine oxidase (PAO) is a flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent enzyme involved in polyamine catabolism. Animal PAOs oxidize spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd), and/or their acetyl derivatives to produce H2O2, an aminoaldehyde, and Spd or putrescine, respectively, thus being involved in a polyamine back-conversion pathway. On the contrary, plant PAOs that have been characterized to date oxidize Spm and Spd to produce 1,3-diaminopropane, H2O2, and an aminoaldehyde and are therefore involved in the terminal catabolism of polyamines. A database search within the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genome sequence showed the presence of a gene (AtPAO1) encoding for a putative PAO with 45% amino acid sequence identity with maize (Zea mays) PAO. The AtPAO1 cDNA was isolated and cloned in a vector for heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein was purified by affinity chromatography on guazatine-Sepharose 4B and was shown to be a flavoprotein able to oxidize Spm, norspermine, and N1-acetylspermine with a pH optimum at 8.0. Analysis of the reaction products showed that AtPAO1 produces Spd from Spm and norspermidine from norspermine, demonstrating a substrate oxidation mode similar to that of animal PAOs. To our knowledge, AtPAO1 is the first plant PAO reported to be involved in a polyamine back-conversion pathway. 相似文献

NaCl胁迫对菜用大豆种子多胺代谢的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
采用蛭石栽培,在100 mmol·L-1NaCl胁迫下,对耐盐性不同的两个品种菜用大豆种子的丙二醛(MDA)含量和多胺(PAs)代谢进行了研究.结果表明:NaCl胁迫显著增加了菜用大豆种子的MDA含量,但耐盐品种‘绿领特早’(LL)的增幅低于盐敏感品种‘理想高产95-1’(LX).与LX相比,LL种子在整个NaCl胁迫期间均维持了相对较高的游离态精胺(Spm)、结合态Spm、结合态亚精胺(Spd)、束缚态Spd和束缚态腐胺(Put)含量,较高的(Spd +Spm )/Put 和(cPAs+bPAs)/fPAs值及较低的Put/PAs值,在胁迫中、后期(9~15 d)维持了相对较高的游离态Spd含量;胁迫期间,LL的精胺酸脱羧酶(ADC)长时期(6~15 d)保持相对较高的活性,而多胺氧化酶(PAO)则长时期(6~15 d)维持相对较低的活性.综上,LL具有较强的多胺合成能力及较强的Put向Spd和Spm以及游离态多胺向结合态和束缚态多胺转化的能力,进而有效抑制了细胞的膜脂过氧化,这可能是其耐盐性较强的重要原因之一. 相似文献

Modulation of the NMDA receptor by polyamines. 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Results of recent biochemical and electrophysiological studies have suggested that a recognition site for polyamines exists as part of the NMDA receptor complex. This site appears to be distinct from previously described binding sites for glutamate, glycine, Mg++,Zn++, and open-channel blockers such as MK-801. The endogenous polyamines spermine and spermidine increase the binding of open-channel blockers and increase NMDA-elicited currents in cultured neurons. These polyamines have been termed agonists at the polyamine recognition site. Studies of the effects of natural and synthetic polyamines on the binding of [3H]MK-801 and on NMDA-elicited currents in cultured neurons have led to the identification of compounds classified as partial agonists, antagonists, and inverse agonists at the polyamine recognition site. Polyamines have also been found to affect the binding of ligands to the recognition sites for glutamate and glycine. However, these effects may be mediated at a site distinct from that at which polyamines act to modulate the binding of open-channel blockers. Endogenous polyamines may modulate excitatory synaptic transmission by acting at the polyamine recognition site of the NMDA receptor. This site could represent a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of ischemia-induced neurotoxicity, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

The equilibrium binding characteristics of the tritiated GABAA agonist, 5-aminomethyl-3-isothiazolol (thiomuscimol) are described. Using the filtration technique to separate bound- from free-ligand, [3H]thiomuscimol was shown to bind to the GABA(A) receptor site(s) in a saturable manner with a Kd value of 28+/-6.0 nM and a Bmax value of 50+/-4.0 fmol/mg original tissue. In parallel binding experiments, the Kd and Bmax values for [3H]muscimol were determined to be 5.4+/-2.8 nM and 82+/-11 fmol/mg original tissue, respectively. In binding assays using the centrifugation technique, Kd and Bmax values for [3H]thiomuscimol were found to be 116+/-22 nM and 154 13 fmol/mg original tissue, respectively, whereas a Kd value of 16+/-1.8 nM and a Bmax value of 155+/-8.0 fmol/mg original tissue were determined for [3H]muscimol. In comparative inhibition studies using the GABA(A) antagonist SR 95531 and a series of specific GABAA agonists, the binding sites for [3H]thiomuscimol and [3H]muscimol were shown to exhibit similar pharmacological profiles. Autoradiographic studies disclosed similar regional distribution of [3H]thiomuscimol and [3H]muscimol binding sites in rat brain. Highest densities of binding sites were detected in cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum, whereas low densities were measured in the midbrain structures of rat cortex. In conclusion, the equilibrium GABA(A) receptor binding characteristics of [3H]thiomuscimol are very similar to those of [3H]muscimol. 相似文献

Pertussis toxin inhibits cAMP surface receptor-stimulated binding of [35S]GTP gamma S to Dictyostelium discoideum membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
GTP-binding activity to Dictyostelium discoideum membranes was investigated using various guanine nucleotides. Rank order of binding activities was: GTP gamma S greater than GTP greater than 8-N3-GTP; the binding of GTP gamma S and GTP, but not of 8-N3-GTP, was stimulated by receptor agonists. [3H]GTP binding to D. discoideum membranes has been described previously by a single binding type (Kd = 2.6 microM, Bmax = 85 nM). More detailed studies with [35S]GTP gamma S showed heterogeneous binding composed of two forms of binding sites with respectively high (Kd = 0.2 microM) and low (Kd = 6.3 microM) affinity. cAMP derivatives enhanced GTP gamma S binding by increasing the affinity and the number of the high-affinity sites, while the low-affinity sites were not affected by cAMP. The specificity of cAMP derivatives for stimulation of GTP gamma S binding showed a close correlation with the specificity for binding to the cell surface cAMP receptor. Pretreatment of D. discoideum cells with pertussis toxin did not affect basal GTP and GTP gamma S binding, but eliminated the cAMP stimulation of GTP and GTP gamma S binding. These results indicate that D. discoideum cells have a pertussis toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein that interacts with the surface cAMP receptor, suggesting the functional interaction of surface receptor with a G-protein in D. discoideum. 相似文献

The high and low affinity binding sites for PACAP were identified in rat astrocytes using [125I]PACAP27 as the labeled ligand. Scatchard analysis of displacement of the bound tracer by unlabeled PACAP27 indicated the existence of two classes of binding sites, with the dissociation constant (Kd) = 1.22 +/- 0.4 nM, the binding maximal capacity (Bmax) = 821 +/- 218 fmols/mg protein for the high affinity binding site, and Kd = 0.59 +/- 0.06 microM, Bmax = 563 +/- 12 pmols/mg protein for the low affinity binding site, respectively. The specificity of [125I]PACAP27 binding was tested using PACAP38 and peptides structurally related to PACAP, such as VIP, GHRF, PHI, secretin and glucagon. PACAP38 completely displaced the binding of [125I]PACAP27 and Scatchard analysis also indicated the presence of two classes of binding sites with similar Kd and Bmax to those for PACAP27. VIP and GHRF competed with [125I]PACAP27, but to a much lesser extent than unlabeled PACAP27 in binding. Other peptides tested did not displace the binding of [125I]PACAP27 at 10(-6) M. 相似文献
