The ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) activity of 30 S dynein from Tetrahymena cilia was remarkably stimulated by porcine brain tubulin at pH 10. The activity increased with increasing concentration of tubulin until the molar ratio of tubulin dimer to 30 S dynein reached approx. 10. The optimum of the ATPase activity of 30 S dynein in the presence of tubulin was 1-2 mM for MgCl2 and 2 mM for CaCl2. Increasing ionic strength gradually inhibited the stimulation effects of tubulin. Activation energies of 30 S dynein in the presence and absence of tubulin were almost the same. At the temperatures beyond 25 degrees C stimulation effects of tubulin disappeared. ATP was a specific substrate even in the presence of tubulin. In kinetic investigations parallel reciprocal plots were observed in a constant ratio of divalent cations to ATP of 2, indicating that tubulin was less tightly bound to 30 S dynein in the presence of ATP than the absence. The similar results were obtained at pH 8.2. 14 S dynein and the 12 S fragment which have poor ability to recombine with outer fibers were also activated with brain tubulin. 相似文献

Characterization of the ATP-sensitive binding of Tetrahymena 30 S dynein to bovine brain microtubules 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Dynein was obtained by high salt extraction of Tetrahymena cilia and purified by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography. This fraction consisted of a mixture of 30 S dynein (80%) and the 14 S ATPase (15%). The column purification effectively removed tubulin and adenylate kinase. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis indicated that the 30 S dynein was composed of a major heavy chain (approximately 400 kD, three copies), three intermediate chains (70, 85, and 100 kD), and a group of light chains (approximately 20 kD). The binding of the column-purified dynein to bovine brain microtubules was characterized as follows. (i) Titration of the dynein with microtubules showed a linear increase in turbidity up to an equivalence point of 2.7 mg of dynein/mg of tubulin with apparently tight binding; (ii) the addition of ATP caused the turbidity of the solution of decrease to a level equal to the sum of free dynein plus microtubules; (iii) transmission electron microscopy indicated that microtubules were decorated with dynein arms spaced at a 24-nm longitudinal repeat and that the dynein decoration was removed upon addition of ATP; (iv) cross-section images of microtubules that were saturated with dynein showed six to seven dynein arms around a microtubule consisting of 14 protofilaments, corresponding to a molar ratio of one dynein/six tubulin dimers; (v) the dynein arms were bound primarily by their broader end which corresponds to the end normally bound to the B-subfiber in vivo. Experiments with purified 30 and 14 S dyneins indicated that the dynein-microtubule binding activity and the ATP-induced dissociation were the properties of the 30 S dynein alone. These studies demonstrate that the 30 S dynein under our conditions (50 mM PIPES, pH 6.96, 4 mM MgSO4) interacts with bovine brain microtubules through the ATP-sensitive site of the dynein arm. 相似文献

The sonication of 30 S dynein obtained from Tetrahymena cilia induced dissociation into 14-S subunits, some of the enzyme still remaining as intact 30 S dynein and partially dissociated dynein (21 S) in a minor amount. It was demonstrated that the enzymatic properties of the 14 S subunit are quite similar to those of 30 S dynein except for the Ca2+:Mg2+ ratio. ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) (ATP phosphohydrolase activity of the 14 S subunit was steadily enhanced by increasing concentrations of Mg2+. It was also activated by Ca2+ with an optimum at 6 mM but inhibited by a further increase in concentration. The Ca2+:Mg2+ ratio at 1 mM was about 0.62. 0.6 M KCl stimulated ATPase activity of the 14 S subunit two-fold. The Mg2+-ATPase had an optimum at pH 6.2 and revealed a high activity over pH 10. The Ca2+-ATPase showed two optima at pH 6.2 and 9.5. The Km for ATP was 10 muM. Only 10% of the 14 S subunit recombined with the outer fibers in the presence of Mg2+. The 14 S subunit was shown to have the same mobility as that of 30 S dynein on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 相似文献

Crude dynein extracted from bull sperm flagella polymerized pure phosphocellulose tubulin isolated from brain tissues into microtubules. This effect was predominantly due to the 19S dynein particle in the extract. ATP stimulated up to five fold the polymerization of brain tubulin by bull sperm dynein. Hydrolysis of ATP was not required since vanadate at a concentration sufficient to block dynein ATPase activity did not interfere with ATP stimulation and because the non hydrolyzable ATP analogue adenylyl (beta-gamma-methylene) diphosphate (AMPPCP) had effects similar to those of ATP. These results suggest that, in addition to hydrolyzing ATP to generate the driving force necessary for microtubule sliding within the axoneme, dynein may also interact with ATP to polymerize tubulin into microtubules. 相似文献

Ciliary 30S dynein of Tetrahymena was investigated with regard to modification of the ATPase activity with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) in the presence of ATP. The elevation of enzyme activity due to the modification was largely repressed by addition of ATP at a concentration of 1 mM or more during preincubation of 20 h at 0 degrees C. The repression was highly specific for ATP, though ADP and AMPPNP showed slight repressive effects. After complete hydrolysis of ATP added to the preincubation mixture, however, elevation of 30S dynein ATPase activity occurred. It is suggested that the repression by ATP of NEM-induced elevation of 30S dynein ATPase activity is simply due to a protecting effect of ATP on certain SH group(s) (probably SH1-type group(s)) around the active center of 30S dynein. When 30S dynein was maximally activated by modification with NEM, ATP or ADP did not significantly promote the inactivation of the modified enzyme upon further treatment with NEM, indicating that 30S dynein lacks the characteristics of SH2-type groups. On the other hand, ATP also showed a protective effect against inhibition of native 30S dynein by high concentrations of NEM. High concentrations of ADP and AMPPNP were inhibitory to 30S dynein ATPase activity but inorganic phosphate did not inhibit 14S or 30S dynein ATPase activities at all. 相似文献

The enhancing effect of low concentrations (eg, 8 μM) of bis(4-fluoro-3-nitrophenyl)sulfone (FNS) on 30S dynein ATPase activity is increased when 1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) is present. The effect of FNS + DTT is optimal at pH 7.5. Activation of the latent ATPase activity of 30S dynein by FNS + DTT is partially prevented by 1–3 μM ATP. Adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) is less effective than ATP, while β,γ-methylene-adenosine triphosphate (AMP-PCP), though a much stronger inhibitor of ATPase activity than AMP-PNP, does not protect against enhancement. These results demonstrate the presence of a high-affinity ATP-binding site on 30S dynein. 相似文献

We recently found that the brain cytosolic microtubule-associated protein 1C (MAP 1C) is a microtubule-activated ATPase, capable of translocating microtubules in vitro in the direction corresponding to retrograde transport. (Paschal, B. M., H. S. Shpetner, and R. B. Vallee. 1987b. J. Cell Biol. 105:1273-1282; Paschal, B. M., and R. B. Vallee. 1987. Nature [Lond.]. 330:181-183.). Biochemical analysis of this protein (op. cit.) as well as scanning transmission electron microscopy revealed that MAP 1C is a brain cytoplasmic form of the ciliary and flagellar ATPase dynein (Vallee, R. B., J. S. Wall, B. M. Paschal, and H. S. Shpetner. 1988. Nature [Lond.]. 332:561-563). We have now characterized the ATPase activity of the brain enzyme in detail. We found that microtubule activation required polymeric tubulin and saturated with increasing tubulin concentration. The maximum activity at saturating tubulin (Vmax) varied from 186 to 239 nmol/min per mg. At low ionic strength, the Km for microtubules was 0.16 mg/ml tubulin, substantially lower than that previously reported for axonemal dynein. The microtubule-stimulated activity was extremely sensitive to changes in ionic strength and sulfhydryl oxidation state, both of which primarily affected the microtubule concentrations required for half-maximal activation. In a number of respects the brain dynein was enzymatically similar to both axonemal and egg dyneins. Thus, the ATPase required divalent cations, calcium stimulating activity less effectively than magnesium. The MgATPase was inhibited by metavandate (Ki = 5-10 microM for the microtubule-stimulated activity), 1 mM NEM, and 1 mM EHNA. In contrast to other dyneins, the brain enzyme hydrolyzed CTP, TTP, and GTP at higher rates than ATP. Thus, the enzymological properties of the brain cytoplasmic dynein are clearly related to those of other dyneins, though the brain enzyme is unique in its substrate specificity and in its high sensitivity to stimulation by microtubules. 相似文献

Reaction mechanism of 21S dynein ATPase from sea urchin sperm. I. Kinetic properties in the steady state 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
21S Dynein ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] from axonemes of a Japanese sea urchin, Pseudocentrotus depressus, and its subunit fractions were studied to determine their kinetic properties in the steady state, using [gamma-32P]ATP at various concentrations, 5 mM divalent cations, and 20 mM imidazole at pH 7.0 and 0 degrees C. The following results were obtained. 1. 21S Dynein had a latent ATPase activity of about 0.63 mumol Pi/(mg . min) in 1 mM ATP, 100 mM KCl, 4 mM MgSO4, 0.5 mM EDTA, and 30 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C. Its exposure to 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 min at 25 degrees C induced an increase in the ATPase activity to about 3.75 mumol Pi/(mg . min) and treatment at 40 degrees C for 5 min also induced a similar activation. 2. The double-reciprocal plot for the ATPase activity of dynein activated by the treatment at 40 degrees C consisted of two straight lines, while that of nonactivated 21S dynein fitted a single straight line. 3. In low ionic strength solution, the Mg- and Mn-ATPase of 21S dynein showed substrate inhibition at ATP concentrations above 0.1 mM; the inhibition decreased with increasing ionic strength. Ca- and Sr-ATPase showed no substrate inhibition. 4. Both the Vmax and Km values of dynein ATPase decreased reversibly upon addition of about 40% (v/v) glycerol. In the presence of glycerol, the dynein ATPase showed an initial burst of Pi liberation. The apparent Pi-burst size was 1.0 mol/(10(6) g protein) and the true size was calculated to be 1.6 mol/1,250 K after correcting for the effect of Pi liberation in the steady state and the purity of our preparation. 5. One of the subunit fractions of 21S dynein which was obtained by the method of Tang et al. showed substrate inhibition and an initial burst of Pi liberation of 1.4 mol/(10(6) g protein) in the presence of 54% (v/v) glycerol. 相似文献

When 21S dynein ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] from sea urchin sperm flagellar axonemes was mixed with the salt-extracted axonemes, the ATPase activity was much higher than the sum of ATPase activities in the two fractions, as reported previously (Gibbons, I.R. & Fronk, E. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 187-196). This high ATPase level was for the first time demonstrated to be due to the activation of the 21S dynein ATPase activity by the axonemes. The mode of the activation was studied to get an insight into the mechanism of dynein-microtubule interaction. The salt-extracted axonemes caused a 7- to 8-fold activation of the 21S dynein ATPase activity at an axoneme : dynein weight ratio of about 14 : 1. The activation was maximal at a low ionic strength (no KCl) at pH 7.9-8.3. Under these conditions, 21S dynein rebound to the salt-extracted axonemes. The maximal binding ratio of 21S dynein to the axonemes was the same as that observed in the maximal activation of 21S dynein ATPase. The sliding between the outer doublet microtubules in the trypsin-treated 21S dynein-rebound axonemes took place upon the addition of 0.05-0.1 mM ATP in the absence of KCl. During the sliding, the rate of ATP hydrolysis was at the same level as that of the 21S dynein activated by the salt-extracted axonemes. However, it decreased to the level of 21S dynein alone after the sliding. These results suggested that an interaction of the axoneme-rebound 21S dynein with B-subfibers of the adjacent outer doublet microtubules in the axoneme causes the activation of the ATPase activity. 相似文献

Axonemes were isolated from sperm of Colobocentrotus by a procedure involving two extractions with 1% Triton X-100 and washing The isolated axonemes contained 7 x 1015 g protein per µm of their length. Treatment of the axonemes with 0 5 M KCl for 30 min extracted 50–70% of the flagellar ATPase protein, dynein, and removed preferentially the outer arms from the doublet tubules. Almost all of the dynein (85–95%) could be extracted from the axonemes by dialysis at low ionic strength. In both cases the extracted dynein sedimented through sucrose gradients at 12–14S, and no 30S form was observed The enzymic properties of dynein changed when it was extracted from the axonemes into solution. Solubilization had a particularly marked effect on the KCl- and pH-dependence of the ATPase activity. The pH-dependence of soluble dynein was fairly simple with a single peak extending from about pH 6 to pH 10. The pH-dependence of bound dynein was more complex. In 0.1 M KCl, the bound activity appeared to peak at about pH 9, and dropped off rapidly with decreasing pH, reaching almost zero at pH 7; an additional peak at pH 10 0 resulted from the breakdown of the axonemal structure and solubilization of dynein that occurred at about this pH. A similar curve was obtained in the absence of KCl, except for the presence of a further large peak at pH 8 Measurement of the kinetic parameters of soluble dynein showed that both Km and Vmax increased with increasing concentrations of KCl up to 0.5 M When bound dynein was assayed under conditions that would induce motility in reactivated sperm (0 15 M KCl with Mg++ activation), it did not obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics, although it did when assayed under other conditions. The complex enzyme-kinetic behavior of bound dynein, and the differences between its enzymic properties and those of soluble dynein, may result from its interactions with tubulin and other axonemal proteins 相似文献

Half of the adenosine triphosphatase (dynein) activity of starfish sperm tail axonemes was extracted with 0.6 m KCl-10 mm Tris · HCl (pH 7.8)-0.1 mm EDTA-0.5 mm dithiothreitol (KCl-EDTA), while with 1 mm Tris · HCl (pH 7.8)-0.1 mm EDTA-0.5 mm dithiothreitol (Tris-EDTA) around 90% of the activity was extracted. The main adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) in the KCl-EDTA extract had a sedimentation coefficient of 20S and that in the Tris-EDTA extract had a sedimentation coefficient of 12S. The effects of divalent cations, pH, and an SH-blocking reagent and the Km for ATP were different for the activities of the two forms of dynein ATPase. These two forms of dynein can interconvert to some extent when the ionic strength of the medium is changed. In a medium suitable for recombination of dynein to outer doublet microtubules (recombination buffer, 20 mm Tris-HCl (pH 7.6)-2 mm MgCl2-0.5 mm dithiothreitol), the 20S ATPase converted to a 24S ATPase. Recombination of the ATPase activity from the KCl-EDTA extract was almost complete while that from the Tris-EDTA extract was around 50%. Outer arms disappeared preferentially by the treatment with KCl-EDTA, and the extracted arms could be reconstituted in the recombination buffer. In the case of the Tris-EDTA extraction, both the outer and inner arms disappeared and the reconstitution of the arms could not be confirmed. From the above results it can be considered that the 20 or 24S dynein represented the arm structure. The 20 or 24S ATPase fraction contained two large polypeptide chains as main components having electrophoretic mobilities in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate similar to those of Tetrahymena ciliary dyneins and of sea urchin sperm flagellar dyneins. The relationship between these chains and dynein subunits is discussed. 相似文献

The microtubule-dynein complex consisting of 22S dynein from Tetrahymena cilia and MAP-free microtubules was subjected to treatment with various concentrations of 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)-propyl]carbodiimide (EDC), a zero-length cross-linker, at 28 degrees C for 1 h. Following cross-linking of the microtubule-dynein complex, nearly all of the ATPase activity cosedimented with the microtubules in the presence of ATP. Electron microscopic observation by negative staining revealed that, following treatment with 1 mM EDC, the complex did not dissociate in the presence of ATP, although the dynein decoration pattern was disordered. The complex treated with 3 mM EDC exhibited normal microtubule-dynein patterns even after the addition of ATP. The ATPase activity of the microtubule-dynein complex was enhanced about 30-fold by the treatment with 1-3 mM EDC. These results indicate that the ATPase activation was caused by the close proximity of the dynein ATPase sites to the microtubules and provide further support for the functional interaction of all three dynein heads with the microtubule. The maximal specific activity was 12 mumol min-1 (mg of dynein)-1, corresponding to a turnover rate of 150 s-1, which may be the rate-limiting step at infinite microtubule concentration and may represent the maximum rate of force production in the axoneme. 相似文献

Extraction of demembranated cilia of Tetrahymena by Tris-EDTA (denoted by the suffix E) yields 14S-E and 30S-E dyneins with ATPase activities that are slightly increased by Ca++. This effect is moderately potentiated when bovine brain calmodulin is added to the assay mixture. Extraction with 0.5 M KCl (denoted by the suffix K) yeilds a 14S-K dynein with a low basal ATPase activity in the presence of Ca++. Subsequent addition of calmodulin causes marked activation (up to 10- fold) of ATPase activity. Although 14S-K and 14S-E dyneins have Ca++- dependent ATPase activities that differ markedly in the degree of activation, the concentration of calmodulin required for half-maximal saturation is similar for both, approximately 0.1 microM. Both 30S-K and 30S-E dyneins, however, require approximately 0.7 microM bovine brain calmodulin to reach half-maximal activation of their Ca++- dependent ATPase activities. Tetrahymena calmodulin is as effective as bovine brain calmodulin in activating 30S dynein , but may be slightly less effective than the brain calmodulin in activating 14S dynein. Rabbit skeletal muscle troponin C also activates the Ca++-dependent ATPase activity of 30S dynein and, to a lesser extent, that of 14S dynein, but in both cases is less effective than calmodulin. The interaction of calmodulin with dynein that results in ATPase activation is largely complete in less than 1 min, and is prevented by the presence of low concentrations of ATP. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate can partially prevent activation of dynein ATPase by calmodulin plus Ca++, but at much higher concentrations than required for prevention by ATP. beta, gamma-methyl-adenosine triphosphate appears not to prevent this activation. The presence of Ca++-dependent calmodulin-binding sites on 14S and 30S dyneins was demonstrated by the Ca++-dependent retention of the dyneins on a calmodulin-Sepharose-4B column. Gel electrophoresis of 14S dynein that had been purified by the affinity-chromatography procedure showed that presence of two major and one minor high molecular weight components. Similar analysis of 30S dynein purified by this procedure also revealed on major and one minor high molecular weight components that were different from the major components of 14S dynein. Ca++-dependent binding sites for calmodulin were shown to be present on axonemes that had been extracted twice with Tris-EDTA or with 0.5 M KCl by the use of 35S-labeled Tetrahymena calmodulin. It is concluded that the 14S and 30S dyneins of Tetrahymena contain Ca++- dependent binding sites for calmodulin and the calmodulin mediates the Ca++-regulation of the dynein ATPases of Tetrahymena cilia. 相似文献

The effects of five sulfhydryl (SH) reagents – N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), a spin-labeled maleimide (SLM), N-N′-phenylenedimaleimide (PPDM), bis(4-fluoro-3-nitrophenyl)sulfone (FNS), and carboxypyridine disulfide (CPDS) – on glycerol-treated, Triton X-100-demembranated ciliary axonemes of Tetrahymena, on the 30S and 14S dyneins extracted from such axonemes, and on the residual ATPase activity remaining associated with axonemes that have been extracted twice with Tris-EDTA have been examined as a function of pH in the range 6.9–8.6. Preincubation of axonemes and of solubilized 30S dynein with low concentrations of each of the five SH reagents, at 0°C and at 25°C, caused enhancement of the latent ATPase activity. PPDM was the most effective reagent, causing half-maximal enhancement (after 18 h at 0°C) at ~ 0.5 μM, corresponding to 0.19 moles/105 g axonemal protein. The rate constants, ka, for the enhancement reaction at 0°C depended on whether the 30S dynein was in situ or solubilized; the ratio ka (in situ) /ka (solubilized) was > 1 for NEM, ~ 1 for PPDM, and < 1 for FNS. For each SH reagent except CPDS, ka (at 0°C) increased markedly with increasing pH in the range pH 6.9–8.6; for CPDS ka increased only about fourfold. At long times of preincubation and high concentrations of NEM, SLM, PPDM, and CPDS, the enhancement of ATPase activity was followed by a loss of activity. The values of kL, the rate constants for loss of ATPase activity from the peak enhanced level, were much lower than the corresponding values for ka, and increased with increasing pH. With SLM and PPDM, inhibition continued until the ATPase activity was almost completely inhibited. With NEM, however, the initial rate of loss from the peak enhanced value decreased as the ATPase activity returned toward the control (unmodified) level, and further inhibition was very slow. The differences in degree of inhibition obtained with SLM as compared to NEM suggest that there are at least two classes of inhibitory SH groups on 30S dynein. The ATPase activity of 14S dynein was only inhibited by preincubation with NEM, SLM, PPDM, and, to a lesser extent, CPDS; kL increased with increasing pH. Preincubation of 14S dynein with FNS yielded conflicting results when the reaction was “stopped” by adding dithiothreitol. When 14S dynein was preincubated at 0 C with FNS and the ATPase activity was then assayed at 25°C, a biphasic pattern of enhancement followed by inhibition was obtained. The residual ATPase activity of twice-extracted axomenes was relatively insensitive to each of the SH reagents studied; an initial rapid loss of some 20–40% of the ATPase activity occurred, followed by a very slow further loss of activity. Increasing the pH increased this slow rate of inhibition. The residual ATPase activity of unmodified twice-extracted axonemes decreased slightly with increasing pH, in contrast to the slight increase observed with increasing pH for the ATPase activity of axonemes and of solubilized 30S and 14S dyneins. The presence of ATP during preincubation of axonemes with PPDM at O°C prevented the enhancement of ATPase activity; only a slow loss of ATPase activity was observed. This rate of loss of ATPase activity was slower than the rate of loss observed (after peak enhancement of activity was reached) when PPDM reacted with axonemes in the absence of ATP. In these properties the SH groups of 30s dynein responsible for the enhancement of latent ATPase activity and for the inhibition of ATPase activity do not resemble the SH1 and SH2 groups of myosin, respectively, since the presence of ATP increases the rates of reaction of SH1 and SH2 of myosin with SH reagents. 相似文献

Specific anion effects on ATPase activity, calmodulin sensitivity, and solubilization of dynein ATPases 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The basal ATPase activity of 30S dynein, whether obtained by extraction of ciliary axonemes with a high (0.5 M NaCl) or low (1 mM Tris-0.1 mM EDTA) ionic strength buffer is increased by NaCl, NaNO3, and Na acetate, with NaNO3 causing the largest increase. The calmodulin-activated ATPase activity of 30S dynein is also increased by addition of NaCl, NaNO3, or Na acetate, but the effects are less pronounced than on basal activity, so that the calmodulin activation ratio (CAR) decreases to 1.0 as salt concentration increases to 0.2 M. These salts also reduce the CAR of 14S dynein ATPase to 1.0 but by strongly inhibiting the calmodulin-activated ATPase activity and only slightly inhibiting the basal activity. Sodium fluoride differs both quantitatively and qualitatively from the other three salts studied. It inhibits the ATPase activity of both 14S and 30S dyneins at concentrations below 5 mM and, by a stronger inhibition of the calmodulin-activated ATPase activities, reduces the CAR to 1.0. Na acetate does not inhibit axonemal ATPase, nor does it interfere with the drop in turbidity caused by ATP and extracts very little protein from the axonemes. NaCl and, especially, NaNO3, cause a slow decrease in A350 of an axonemal suspension and an inhibition of the turbidity response to ATP. NaF, at concentrations comparable to those that inhibit the ATPase activities of the solubilized dyneins, also inhibits axonemal ATPase activity and the turbidity response. Pretreatment of demembranated axonemes with a buffer containing 0.25 M sodium acetate for 5 min followed by extraction for 5 min with a buffer containing 0.5 M NaCl and resolution of the extracted dynein on a sucrose density gradient generally yields a 30S dynein that is activated by calmodulin in a heterogeneous manner, ie, the "light" 30S dynein ATPase fractions are more activated than the "heavy" 30S dynein fractions. These results demonstrate specific anion effects on the basal and calmodulin-activated dynein ATPase activities, on the extractability of proteins from the axoneme, and on the turbidity response of demembranated axonemes to ATP. They also provide a method that frequently yields 30S dynein fractions with ATPase activities that are activated over twofold by added calmodulin. 相似文献

The substrate specificity of dynein from Tetrahymena cilia 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
T Shimizu 《Journal of biochemistry》1987,102(5):1159-1165
The substrate specificity of the 22S dynein ATPase from Tetrahymena cilia was investigated. The 22S dynein exhibited a high specificity for ATP in terms of both apparent Km and Vmax: naturally occurring nucleoside triphosphates other than ATP were hydrolyzed slowly with an apparent Km of 0.25-1 mM, a sharp contrast to that of ATP hydrolysis (1-4 microM). Pyrophosphate was a poor inhibitor for the dynein ATPase, indicating weak affinity. Since dynein binds ATP tightly and hydrolyzes it at a high rate, a method to determine a trace amount of ATP in the presence of other nucleoside triphosphates has been developed by taking advantage of this enzymatic characteristic of dynein. The effect of P1,P5-di(adenosine-5'-)-pentaphosphate (Ap5A) on the 22S dynein ATPase was also investigated. Ap5A acted as a weak competitive inhibitor of the ciliary 22S dynein ATPase and the nonlinearity of the double-reciprocal plot of the ATPase was confirmed in the presence of Ap5A. 相似文献

An apparent 'triphasic' alteration of 30S dynein ATPase activity was produced by treatment with various amounts of NEM when the modification and susequent ATPase assay were carried out at pH 7.4 and pH 10-10.2, respectively. The Mg-ATPase activity was markedly inhibited by modification of the most reactive SH groups with 10 microM NEM, although the same treatment had no significant effect on the activity when assayed at neutral pH. Increasing the NEM concentration to 0.3 mM largely restored the enzyme activity, but a further increase in NEM concentration inhibited the enzyme activity again. This unusual response of 30S dynein ATPase at pH 10-10.2 was accounted for by the results of Arrhenius plots of the enzyme activity at pH 10.1; the enzyme protein modified with not more than 10 microM NEM was not stable under the assay conditions (pH 10-10.2 at 25 degrees C), whereas modification with 0.3 mM NEM stabilized 30S dynein against the assay conditions. The possible significance of the 10 microM NEM-induced inhibition of the 30S dynein alkaline ATPase activity is discussed in connection with the participation of SH groups of 30S dynein in the enzyme activity. 相似文献

Axonemal dyneins are force-generating ATPases that produce ciliary and flagellar movement. A dynein has large heavy chain(s) in which there are multiple (4-6) ATP-binding consensus sequences (P-loops) as well as intermediate and light chains, constituting a very large complex. We purified a monomeric form of dynein (dynein-a) that has at least three light chains from 14S dyneins of Tetrahymena thermophila and characterized it. In in vitro motility assays, dynein-a rotated microtubules around their longitudinal axis as well as translocated them with their plus-ends leading. ATPase activity at 1 mM ATP was doubled in the presence of a low level of ADP (> or = 20 microM). Both ATPase activity and translocational velocities in the presence of ADP (> or = 20 microM) fit the Michaelis-Menten equation well. However, in the absence of ADP (< 0.1 microM), neither of the activities followed the Michaelis-Menten-type kinetics, probably due to the effect of two ATP-binding sites. Our results also indicate that dynein-a has an ATP-binding site that is very sensitive to ADP and affects ATP hydrolysis at the catalytic site. This study shows that a monomeric form of a dynein molecule regulates its activity by direct binding of ATP and ADP to itself, and thus the dynein molecule has an intramolecular regulating system. 相似文献

The effects of thioura and of several substituted thioureas–phenylthiourea, α-naphtylthiourea, metiamide, and burimamide–on dynein ATPase have been studied. The substituted thioureas are over 30 times more potent than thiourea in causing enhancement of 30S dynein ATPase activity and inhibition of 14S dynein ATPase activity. The effects of thiourea and phenylthiourea can be prevented by very low concentrations of β-mercaptoethanol or dithiotheritol. Axonemal ATPase is also enhanced by the thioureas, but the reaction proceeds more slowly than for solubilized 30S dynein. Enhancement of 30S dynein ATPase by metiamide is prevented by low (~ 1 μM) concentrations of ATP and, less effectively, by AMP-PNP, but not by AMP-PCP even though the latter is a stronger inhibitor of 30S dynein ATPase than is AMP-PNP. The thioureas inhibit the ATP-induced decrease in turbidity (measured as ΔA350) of axonemal suspensions. Inhibition of the turbidity response is also prevented by low concentrations of β-mercaptoethanol, but, in contrast to the irreversible enhancement of ATPase activity, inhibition of the turbidity response is largely reversible. The ability of 30S dynein to rebind onto twice extracted axonemes is not changed by treatment with phenylthiourea or metiamide. These observations indicate that the thioureas react with at least two sets of SH or S–S groups on axonemes. Reaction with the group(s) on the 30S dynein causes an apparently irreversible enhancement of ATPase activity. Reaction with another group(s) causes a reversible inhibition of the turbidity response. 相似文献

Vanadate selectively inhibited dynein ATPase, 10?7 causing 50% inhibition under favorable conditions. Actomyosin ATPase was inhibited only by up to a thousand times higher concentration. In both cases vanadate inhibition was not competitive with ATP. Reversal by catecholamines was correlated with reduction of vanadate. The motility of demembranated sea urchin or mammalian sperm was arrested by vanadate concentrations similar to those which inhibited dynein ATPase; a thousand times higher concentration was needed to paralyze live sperm. The possible utility of vanadate sensitivity as a probe for dynein involvement in non-axonemal motile systems was explored with respect to brain ATPase associated with tubulin obtained by cycles of assembly, and ATPases associated with mitotic apparatus isolated from sea urchin embryos. 相似文献
