A poly(ADP-ribose)-H1 histone complex has been isolated from HeLa cell nuclei incubated with NAD. The rate of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase catalyzed hydrolysis of the polymer in the complex is only 1/9 that of free poly(ADP-ribose), indicating that the polymer is in a protected environment within the complex. Comparison of the rate of hydrolysis of free poly(ADP-ribose) in the presence or absence of H1 to that in the complex synthesized de novo indicates a specific mode of packaging of the complex. This is further indicated by the fact that alkaline dissociation of the complex followed by neutralization markedly exposes the associated poly(ADP-ribose) to the glycohydrolase. The complex also partially unfolds when it binds to DNA as evidenced by a 2-fold increase in the rate of glycolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose). This effect of DNA is not due to a stimulation of the glycohydrolase per se since hydrolysis of free polymer by the enzyme is strongly inhibited by DNA, especially single-stranded DNA. Inhibition of glycohydrolase by DNA results from the binding of the enzyme to DNA and conditions which decrease this binding (increased ionic strength or addition of histone H1 which competes for DNA binding) relieve the DNA inhibition.  相似文献

In nuclei incubated in vitro with [3H]NAD to promote poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis, about 6% of the polymer synthesized is differentially extracted into cold 5% PCA along with the H1 histone. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the extracts revealed large differences in the mobility of the incorporated radioactivity depending on the source of the nuclei used. With rat mammary tumors, the radioactivity co-migrated with the H1 histone on both acid-urea and SDS-urea gels. In contrast, the labeled polymer from HBL-100 mammary cell nuclei co-electrophoresed with a minor protein component which moved more slowly than H1. With lactating mammary glands, an intermediate profile was seen. The difference in mobility on the gels was found to be due to differences in the chain lengths of the poly(ADP-ribose) attached in the H1 protein. The difference in chain length produced was inversely related to the level of poly(ADP-ribose) degrading activity in the various nuclear preparations.  相似文献

Phenolic phytochemicals such as tannins, which are natural constituents of green tea, red wine, and other plant products, are considered to have cancer-preventive properties. An important endogenous mediator of tumorigenesis is the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). PARP-1 synthesizes polymers of ADP-ribose (PAR), which, in turn, are degraded by the catabolic enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). In the present study, we investigated the effects of tannins on the level of PAR in HeLa nuclear extracts. The addition of tannins to nuclear extracts led to a 40-fold elevation of PAR-levels. The observed increased PAR-levels resulted from inhibition of the catalytic activity of PARG. Additionally, the human PARG cDNA was cloned and the recombinant enzyme was overexpressed and isolated. Recombinant PARG was immobilized using an affinity column composed of tannins covalently linked to Sepharose beads. Finally, an interaction between immobilized PARG and endogenous PARP-1 from HeLa cell extracts is demonstrated.  相似文献

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, an enzyme that has reportedly been confined to the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, has been found in the cytoplasm of HeLa cells. The enzyme activity is stimulated more than 30-fold by the addition of both DNA and histones. These two macromolecules are absolutely necessary for maximal activity and they act in a synergistic manner. The product of the reaction was characterized as poly(ADP-ribose) by its acid insolubility, its insensitivity to hydrolysis by DNase, RNase, spleen phosphodiesterase or Pronase and by release of 5′-AMP and 2′-(5″-phosphoribosyl)-5′-AMP by incubation with snake venom phosphodiesterase. A covalent attachment between histone F1 and poly(ADP-ribose) has been established by using the cytoplasmic enzyme. The enzyme is primarily associated with ribosomes, both free ribosomes and those found in polysomes. Inhibition of protein synthesis in the intact cell reduced the level of activity in the cytoplasm. The enzyme can be removed from the ribosomes by centrifugation through sucrose gradients containing 0.6 m ammonium chloride. A relationship between this enzyme and DNA replication is suggested by the fact that the specific activity in the cytoplasm parallels the rate of DNA synthesis during the HeLa cell cycle.  相似文献

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity was measured in a crude nuclear fraction isolated from HeLa cells. It was found that the addition of ammonium sulfate or other salts to the standard incubation medium inhibited the formation of poly(ADP-ribose). Through the use of alkaline sucrose density gradients it was also noted that this same increase in ionic strength inhibited the in vitro breakdown of the HeLa DNA. Additional experiments with alkaline sucrose density gradients and deoxyribonuclease I showed that the in vitro activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is largely dependent upon DNA fragmentation but that DNA fragmentation at least in vitro is not dependent upon the formation of poly(ADP-ribose). These observations imply that this nuclear enzyme is not extremely sensitive to changes in the ionic strength of the reaction media but is affected indirectly, supposedly through changes in the endonuclease activity of the HeLa nuclei. If this proves to be true, then the addition of salt to the incubation medium for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase could prove to be a valuable tool for the study of ADP-ribosylation reactions.  相似文献

ADP-ribose liberated from (ADP-ribose)n by the action of (ADP-ribose)n glycohydrolase was converted to ATP and ribose 5-phosphate (ribose 5-P) in the presence of pyrophosphate (PPi) in HeLa S3 cell nuclei. This reaction was reversible and dependent on the simultaneous presence of ADP-ribose, PPi, Mg2+, and nuclei. These results suggest the presence of a novel enzyme in the nuclei, designated as ADP-ribose pyrophosphorylase, which catalyzes the reaction shown in Equation 1. ADP-ribose + PPi in equilibrium ATP + Ribose 5-P (1) This reaction could represent a pathway for the biosynthesis of ATP from (ADP-ribose)n in eukaryotic cell nuclei.  相似文献

The change in activity of nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase during the cell cycle of HeLa S3 cells was investigated. The poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity was solubilized from HeLa S3 cell nuclei and chromosomes only by sonication at high ionic strength. The enzyme hydrolyzed poly(ADP-ribose) exoglycosidically, producing ADP-ribose. After release from mitosis, the activity of the solubilized nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase per nucleus or per unit protein, assayed with [3H]poly(ADP-ribose) (average chain length, n = 15) as substrate, was lowest in the early G1 phase and highest in the late G1 phase. The specific activity in the late G1 phase was about two times that in the early G1 phase. The high activity remained constant during the S-G2-M phase. A similar change during the cell cycle was observed after release from hydroxyurea block. These results suggest that the activity of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase doubled during the G1 phase of the cell cycle of HeLa S3 cells.  相似文献

Initiation of poly(ADP-ribosyl) histone synthesis was achieved in vitro using an apparently homogeneous preparation of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase. When poly(ADP-ribose) was synthesized in the presence of DNA and increase amounts of histone H1, increasing portions (up to about 55%) of the product were found associated with the histone, judging from solubility in 5% HClO4 and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Most of the polymers were directly attached to the histone protein and not produced by elongation from pre-existing ADP-ribose; the cohesive end of poly(ADP-ribose), isolated as ribose 5-phosphate with snake venom phosphodiesterase digestion, was labeled almost quantitatively with [ribose (NMN)-14C]NAD. The poly(ADP-ribose) . histone linkage was labile in mild alkali and neutral NH2OH, suggesting that the same bond, probably ester, was formed in this system as in crude chromatin or isolated nuclei. Elongation of a histone-bound monomer into a polymer by this enzyme was previously demonstrated (Ueda, K., Kawaichi, M., Okayama, H., and Hayaishi, O. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 679-687), but initiation of ADP-ribose chains on histone has never been shown with a purified enzyme. This appeared to be due to the low concentrations of histone so far used. These findings indicated that a single enzyme catalyzes two different types of reaction, i.e. an attachment of ADP-ribose to histone and its elongation into a polymer.  相似文献

Protein modification by ADP-ribose polymers is a common regulatory mechanism in eukaryotic cells and is involved in several aspects of brain physiology and physiopathology, including neurotransmission, memory formation, neurotoxicity, ageing and age-associated diseases. Here we show age-related misregulation of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis in rat cerebellum as revealed by: (i) reduced poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) activation in response to enzymatic DNA cleavage, (ii) altered protein poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation profiles in isolated nuclei, and (iii) cell type-specific loss of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity in granule cell layer and Purkinje cells in vivo. In particular, although PARP-1 could be detected in virtually all granule cells, only a fraction of them appeared to be actively engaged in poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis and this fraction was reduced in old rat cerebellum. NAD(+), quantified in tissue homogenates, was essentially the same in the cerebellum of young and old rats suggesting that in vivo factors other than PARP-1 content and/or NAD(+) levels may be responsible for the age-associated lowering of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis. Moreover, PARP-1 expression was substantially down-regulated in Purkinje cells of senescent rats.  相似文献

Dynamic behavior of histone H1 microinjected into HeLa cells   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2       下载免费PDF全文
Histone H1 was purified from bovine thymus and radiolabeled with tritium by reductive methylation or with 125I using chloramine-T. Red blood cell-mediated microinjection was then used to introduce the labeled H1 molecules into HeLa cells synchronized in S phase. The injected H1 molecules rapidly entered HeLa nuclei, and a number of tests indicate that their association with chromatin was equivalent to that endogenous histone H1. The injected molecules copurified with HeLa cell nucleosomes, exhibited a half-life of approximately 100 h, and were hyperphosphorylated at mitosis. When injected HeLa cells were fused with mouse 3T3 fibroblasts less than 10% of the labeled H1 molecules migrated to mouse nuclei during the next 48 h. Thus, the intracellular behavior of histone H1 differs markedly from that of high mobility group proteins 1 and 2 (HMG1 and HMG2), which rapidly equilibrate between human and mouse nuclei after heterokaryon formation (Rechsteiner, M., and L. Kuehl, 1979, Cell, 16:901-908; Wu, L., M. Rechsteiner, and L. Kuehl, 1981, J. Cell Biol, 91: 488-496). Despite their slow rate of migration between nuclei, the injected H1 molecules were evenly distributed on mouse and human genomes soon after mitosis of HeLa-3T3 heterokaryons. These results suggest that although most histone H1 molecules are stably associated with interphase chromatin, they undergo extensive redistribution after mitosis.  相似文献

Alkylation treatment of HeLa cells results in the rapid induction of apoptosis as revealed by DNA laddering and cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) into the 29-and 85-kDa fragments (Kumari S. R., Mendoza-Alvarez, H. & Alvarez-Gonzalez, R. (1998) Cancer Res. 58, 5075-5078). Here, we performed a time-course analysis of (i) poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis and degradation as well as (ii) the subnuclear localization of PARP and its fragments by using confocal laser scanning immunofluorescence microscopy. PARP was activated within 15 min post-treatment, as revealed by nuclear immunostaining with antibody 10H (recognizing poly(ADP-ribose)). This was followed by a late, time-dependent, progressive decline of 10H signals that coincide with the time of PARP cleavage. Strikingly, nucleolar immunostaining with antibodies 10H and C-II-10 (recognizing the 85-kDa PARP fragment) was lost by 15 min post-treatment, whereas F-I-23 signals (recognizing the 29-kDa fragment) persisted. We hypothesize that the 85-kDa PARP fragment is translocated, along with covalently bound poly(ADP-ribose), from nucleoli to the nucleoplasm, whereas the 29-kDa fragment is retained, because it binds to DNA strand breaks. Our data (i) provide a link between the known time-dependent bifunctional role of PARP in apoptosis and the subcellular localization of PARP fragments and also (ii) add to the evidence for early proteolytic changes in nucleoli during apoptosis.  相似文献

Nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) have recently gained attention as effective cancer therapy owing to their potency for cell death induction. Previous studies have shown that apoptosis is a predominant mode of nsPEF-induced cell death in several cell lines, such as Jurkat cells. In this study, we analyzed molecular mechanisms for cell death induced by nsPEFs. When nsPEFs were applied to Jurkat cells, apoptosis was readily induced. Next, we used HeLa S3 cells and analyzed apoptotic events. Contrary to our expectation, nsPEF-exposed HeLa S3 cells exhibited no molecular signs of apoptosis execution. Instead, nsPEFs induced the formation of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), a hallmark of necrosis. PAR formation occurred concurrently with a decrease in cell viability, supporting implications of nsPEF-induced PAR formation for cell death. Necrotic PAR formation is known to be catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), and PARP-1 in apoptotic cells is inactivated by caspase-mediated proteolysis. Consistently, we observed intact and cleaved forms of PARP-1 in nsPEF-exposed and UV-irradiated cells, respectively. Taken together, nsPEFs induce two distinct modes of cell death in a cell type-specific manner, and HeLa S3 cells show PAR-associated non-apoptotic cell death in response to nsPEFs.  相似文献

The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase has been purified about 9200-fold from pig thymus nuclei with a 46% yield. An aqueous organic solvent system was used for the isolation of the polymerase from nuclei and for its purification by chromatography at sub-zero temperatures. Electrophoretic analysis under both denaturing and non-denaturing conditions revealed a single protein band suggesting that the preparation was homogeneous and that the enzyme is composed of one polypeptide chain. The molecular weight estimated from sodium dodecyl sulphate-/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 63 500 and from gel filtration through columns of Sephadex G-100, 58 000. The enzyme preparation was free from poly(ADP-ribose)-degrading enzymes and from DNA. The purified polymerase showed an absolute requirement for both DNA and histones. The maximal specific activity of the homogeneous preparation measured by the standardized assay, was 20.7 mu mol NAD+ incorporated x min-1 x mg-1 of protein at 37 degree C. Amino-terminal group analysis with dansyl chloride did not reveal a terminal amino acid suggesting that the amino-terminal group may be blocked. In the presence of histones, the Km for NAD+ was 23 micrometer.  相似文献

Incorporation of radioactive alanine into chromatin-bound subfractions of H1 histone was studied in HeLa cells synchronized by the double thymidine block technique. The subfractions were resolved into three chromatographic peaks by Biorex-70. In the period 5-7 h after release from the thymidine block, peaks I and III showed twice as much incorporation as they did in the period 1-3 h after release, whereas peak II showed three times the incorporation at 5-7 h that it did at 1- 3 h. Thus, the H1-histone subfraction in peak II appears in chromatin somewhat later in S phase than do the subfractions in Peaks I and III.  相似文献

Our results show that in the intact normal animal cell mitochondrial ATP is directly connected to nuclear PARP-1 by way of a specific adenylate kinase enzymatic path. This mechanism is demonstrated in two models: (a) by its inhibition with a specific inhibitor of adenylate kinase, and (b) by disruption of ATP synthesis through uncoupling of OXPHOS. In each instance the de-inhibited PARP-1 is quantitatively determined by enzyme kinetics. The nuclear binding site of PARP-1 is Topo I, and is identified as a critical “switchpoint” indicating the nuclear element that connects OXPHOS with mRNA synthesis in real time. The mitochondrial-nuclear PARP-1 pathway is not operative in cancer cells.  相似文献
