The ability of a range of homologous transferrin-like proteins to donate iron to pieces of human duodenal mucosa, was examined with an in vitro incubation technique. In contrast to serum transferrin and ovotransferrin, only lactotransferrin was able to yield its iron to intestinal tissue, but in an autologous system this protein was unable to donate iron to human reticulocyte preparations. Studies with 125I-labelled lactotransferrin and lactotransferrin dual-labelled with 59Fe and 125I, indicated that the intact protein is excluded from entry into the enterocytes. The experiments suggest that iron may be transported across the brush border after delivery to specific protein binding sites at the cell surface. 相似文献

The uptake of iron (III) mediated by lactotransferrin to human biopsies from upper intestine has suggested the presence of specific receptors for human lactotransferrin at the brush border (Cox, T., Mazurier, J., Spik, G., Montreuil, J. and Peters, T.J. (1979) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 588, 120–128). In the present data, using 125I-radiolabeled transferrins, we have demonstrated that a preparation of microvillous membrane vesicles, from rabbit jejunal brush-border specifically binds human lactotransferrin. This binding is specific, saturable and calcium dependent. Scatchard plots analysis of lactotransferrin binding indicates 1.5 · 1013 sites per mg of membrane proteins with an equilibrium constant of 1.2 · 106 M−1. Sodium dodecyl sulfate solubilization of the brush-border proteins allows the lactotransferrin receptor to retain its binding activity. Moreover, the ligand blotting of the detergent solubilized membrane proteins on nitrocellulose sheet and after incubation with 125I-labeled lactotransferrin, has shown that the receptor is a protein of about 100 kDa. In the same experimental conditions, the rabbit microvillous membrane vesicles do not specifically bind rabbit serotransferrin indicating the absence of serotransferrin receptors at the brush border. 相似文献

Human lactotransferrin binds 2 Fe3+ tightly at two specific sites. In order to demonstrate differences between the stability of the two iron-binding sites, the removal of iron was studied in buffers in the pH range 8-3 varying the ionic strength and with or without metal chelators such as phosphate ions and EDTA.The results show that in the presence of formate and acetate buffers of ionic strength 0.1–0.4 and in a pH range of 5–3, the two Fe3+ from human lactotransferrin are removed stimultaneously.Addition of 4 mM EDTA to buffers of ionic strength 0.1 and in the pH range 8–3 shows that between pH 5–4.3 the iron from only one of the binding sites, called the ‘acid labile’ site, is removed.Addition of 0.2 M phosphate ions to buffers of ionic strength 0.2 and in pH range 8–3 containing 4 mM EDTA shows that Fe3+ from the ‘acid labile’ site may be completely removed at pH 6. Removal of Fe3+ from the ‘acid stable’ site is obtained at pH 4.The differential behavior of the two iron binding sites was also shown by saturation experiments in the presence of citrate/bicarbonate buffers at different pH values. In a pH range 6.2–4.8, 50% saturation was obtained, but at pH 6.35 complete saturation was achieved. When saturation of partially saturated samples of human lactotransferrin was performed with 59Fe it was demonstrated that in the pH range 6.2–4.8 iron is bound only to the ‘acid labile’ site. 相似文献

In the resting rate, the human peripheral blood lymphocytes did not show detectable surface and intracellular receptors for human lactotransferrin. However, both types of lactotransferrin receptors were expressed during stimulation of lymphocytes with phytohemagglutinin. The appearance of receptors was time-dependent and the number of receptors reached a plateau after at least two days of mitogen stimulation. These results suggest that the presence of surface receptors on mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes is not consecutive to a modification of subcellular distribution but to an induction of biosynthesis of the receptors. As measured by incorporation of [3H]thymidine into DNA, addition of human lactotransferrin in a serum-free medium increased the proliferative activity of phytohemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes. Optimal enhancement of [3H]thymidine incorporation was obtained by adding 30% iron-saturated lactotransferrin at a concentration of 0.17 microM. Therefore, the role of lactotransferrin in the response of lymphocytes to mitogen stimulation appears to be similar to that previously described for serotransferrin. The lactotransferrin receptor was visualized using 125I-labeled lactotransferrin on nitrocellulose paper after electroblotting of the Triton X-100 extract of the phytohemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes as two protein bands of 100 and 110 kDa molecular mass. Purification of the lactotransferrin receptor from the Triton-X-100-soluble extract of stimulated lymphocytes was performed by antiligand-affinity chromatography. The binding of lactotransferrin to the purified receptors was reversible and dependent on concentration and pH. 相似文献

Summary The mechanism of iron uptake by avian erythroid cells was investigated using cells from 7 and 15-day chicken embryos, and chicken serum transferrin and conalbumin (ovotransferrin) labelled with125I and59Fe. Endocytosis of the protein was determined by incubation of the cells with Pronase at 4°C to distinguish internalized from surface-bound protein.Iron was taken up by the cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis of transferrin or conalbumin. The receptors had the same affinity for serum transferrin and conalbumin. Endocytosis of diferric transferrin and conalbumin and exocytosis of apo-protein occurred at the same rates, indicating that iron donation to the cells occurred during the process of intracellular cycling of the protein. The recycling time was approximately 4 min. The rate of endocytosis of diferric protein varied with incubation temperature and at each temperature the rate of endocytosis was sufficient to account for the iron accumulated by the cells. These results and experiments with a variety of inhibitors confirmed the role of endocytosis in iron uptake.The mean cell volumes, receptor numbers and iron uptake rates of 7-day embryo cells were approximately twice those of 15-day embryo cells but the protein recycling times were approximately the same. Hence, the level of transferrin receptors is probably the main determinant of the rate of iron uptake during development of chicken erythroid cells.Transferrins from a variety of mammalian species were unable to donate iron to the chicken cells, but toad (Bufo marinus) transferrin could do so at a slow rate. The mechanism of iron uptake by developing chicken erythroid cells appears to be similar to that described for mammalian cells, although receptor numbers and iron uptake rates are lower than those reported for mammalian cells at a similar stage of development.Abbreviations

The manner of uptake or iron by Chinese hamster fibroblasts, type DON, from human transferrin was investigated by means of replacement studies, in which the cells that were incubated with 125I-labelled human transferrin were chased with non-radioactive transferrin for only a few minutes. The results did not support the reversible endocytosis hypothesis for the uptake of iron from transferrin. The uptake of iron measured as 59Fe during several cell divisions was found to be a function of time and cell number. It was found that the total uptake of iron in the harvests was directly proportional to the incubation, and that the uptake per 106 cells levelled off in the course of time. 相似文献

The possibility of using recombinant human lactoferrin from rice (rhLF) makes it necessary to study its differences from the protein of milk. In this work, the binding of different iron-saturated forms of rhLF to Caco-2 cells was studied. Iron-saturated rhLF bound in higher proportion than the apo-form, but, the data obtained for specific binding were not compatible with receptor-mediated binding. Competition assays showed the same binding capacity for human milk lactoferrin as for rhLF to Caco-2 cells. Another basic protein of milk, lactoperoxidase, was found to compete with rhLF for binding to Caco-2 cell membranes, suggesting an electrostatic interaction. The transport of iron (59Fe) bound to rhLF and to citrate and the transport of rhLF (125I-labeled) were studied on Caco-2 monolayers. Transport of iron was found to be significantly greater when bound to citrate than to rhLF. The amount of intact lactoferrin that traversed the Caco-2 monolayers was very low, suggesting degradation of it across these cells. 相似文献

Fluorescein isothiocyanate derivatization of the human lactotransferrin on Lys-264 inhibits the binding of the protein of human PHA-activated lymphocytes [Legrand, D., Mazurier, J., Maes, P., Rochard, E., Montreuil, J., & Spik, G. (1991) Biochem. J. 276, 733-738], indicating that part of the receptor-binding site is located in the N-terminal domain I of lactotransferrin. In the present study, a 6-kDa peptide (residues 4-52) was isolated from the N-terminal lobe of human lactotransferrin which inhibited the binding of the protein to its cell receptor. In addition, lactotransferrin was derivatized using sulfosuccinimidyl 2-(p-azidosalicylamido)ethyl-1,3'-dithiopropionate (SASD) and sulfosuccinimidyl 6-((4'-azido-2'-nitrophenyl)amino)hexanoate (sulfo-SANPAH), two heterobifunctional reagents generally used for receptor-ligand cross-linking. The azide group of these two reagents was inactivated by photolysis, and only the succinimidyl ester group was allowed to react with lysine residues of the protein. The binding of the derivatized lactotransferrins to the human lymphocyte receptor was assayed. SASD, which binds to Lys-74, was able to inhibit the binding of lactotransferrin to the cell receptor, in contrast to Lys-281-binding sulfo-SANPAH. Molecular modeling showed the position of SASD, sulfo-SANPAH, and fluorescein molecules at the surface of the protein and suggested that SASD and fluorescein could mask residues 4-6 and two loop-containing regions of human lactotransferrin (residues 28-34 and 38-45). The comparison of the primary and tertiary structures of human lactotransferrin and serotransferrin, which bind to specific cell receptors, shows that the above-mentioned regions, which are likely involved in protein-receptor interactions, possess specific structural features. 相似文献

Summary A59Fe assay was designed to detect an Fe(III) binding capacity in NP-40 solubilized proteins from rabbit reticulocyte endocytic vesicles. The iron binding capacity had an apparent molecular weight as determined by gel exclusion chromatography of 450,000 daltons. The iron binding moiety coincided with the major nontransferrin iron-containing material of endocytic vesicles labeled in vivo by incubation of cells with59Fe,125I-labeled transferrin. The material solubilized from vesicles with NP-40 exhibited two classes of saturable binding sites, one with an association constant for59Fe-citrate of 3.63×109
m
–1 and with 6.6×10–12 moles of iron bound per mg protein and the other with a constant of 3.96×108
m
–1 and 1.0×10–12 moles of iron bound per mg protein. These affinities are sufficient to satisfy the sobulility characteristics of Fe(III) at pH 5.0. Most of the59Fe bound both in vivo and in vitro to the iron binding moiety could be displaced with56Fe and an equivalent amount of59Fe could subsequently be rebound in vitro. The iron binding assay was adopted to vesicle proteins separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with subsequent transfer to nitrocellulose and revealed an iron binding activity of molecular weight approximately 95,000 daltons. 相似文献

Plasma kinetics and liver metabolism of iodanated human corticosteroid-binding protein have been studied in ovariectomized female rats. 125I-labeled human corticosteroid-binding globulin prepared by a modified chloramine T reaction was shown to be physically intact and biologically active. Intravenously injected 125I-labeled human corticosteroid-binding globulin was shown to give a complex clearance pattern from the plasma, with half-lives of 7.5 and 51 min. Estrogen injections had no effect on plasma clearance rate. Direct involvement of liver plasma membrane receptors for asialoglycoproteins in 125I-labeled human corticosteroid-binding globulin metabolism was demonstrated in vivo and in vitro using asialofetuin as a competitive inhibitor. 125I-labeled human asialo-corticosteroid-binding globulin was cleared from the plasma with a half-life of less than 1 min, while the simultaneous injection of 5 mg asialofetuin maintained the circulating plasma levels. Asialofetuin also slowed the clearance of intact 125I-labeled human corticosteroid-binding globulin from the plasma (). Binding of 125I-labeled human asialo-corticosteroid-binding globulin to rat liver plasma membranes in vitro was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by asialofetuin, but not by intact human corticosteroid-binding globulin or fetuin. 125I-labeled human corticosteroid-binding globulin did not bind significantly to the membranes. It is concluded that human corticosteroid-binding globulin clearance from rat plasma is rapid and that the carbohydrate moiety of human corticosteroid-binding globulin is involved in its clearance and catabolism by the liver. 相似文献

Isolation and partial characterization of a lactotransferrin receptor from mouse intestinal brush border 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several lines of evidence have recently suggested the occurrence of a specific lactotransferrin receptor in the small intestinal brush-border membrane in several animal species, which is thought to be involved in lactotransferrin-mediated intestinal iron absorption. We report here for the first time the isolation and partial characterization of this receptor from mouse intestinal brush border. The receptor has been purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography on an immobilized human lactotransferrin column. The purified receptor was found to be active in that it binds iron-free and iron-saturated lactotransferrin with a Kd of 0.1 microM. Anti-receptor antibodies were prepared, and the receptor was further isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography in higher yield but in a denatured form. The purified receptor was revealed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis to be a protein of about Mr = 130,000, consisting of a single polypeptide chain. The isoelectric point was determined to be 5.8. The receptor was further shown to bear concanavalin A and phytohemagglutinin L binding glycans. Digestion by N-glycanase and endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase B led to a decrease of Mr = 25,000, while the endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase H was uneffective, suggesting that the lactotransferrin receptor is mainly glycosylated by bi- and triantennary glycans. To gain further insight into the interaction of the receptor with lactotransferrin, namely, the number of ligand molecules bound per molecule of receptor, mouse lactotransferrin was cross-linked to its membrane-bound enterocyte receptor by use of radiolabeled sulfosuccinimidyl 3-[[2-(p-azidosalicylamido)ethyl]dithio]propionate (SASD).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Escherichia coli RIC (Repair of Iron Centers) is a diiron protein previously reported to be involved in the repair of iron-sulfur proteins damaged by oxidative or nitrosative stresses, and proposed to act as an iron donor. This possible role of RIC was now examined specifically by evaluating its ability to donate iron ions to apo-iron-sulfur proteins, determining the iron binding constants and assessing the lability of its iron ions. We show, by UV-visible, EPR and resonance Raman spectroscopies that RIC may participate in the synthesis of an iron-sulfur cluster in the apo-forms of the spinach ferredoxin and IscU when in the presence of the sulfide donating system IscS and L-cysteine. Iron binding assays allowed determining the as-isolated and fully reduced RIC dissociation constants for the ferric and ferrous iron of 10−27 M and 10−13 M, respectively. Mössbauer studies revealed that the RIC iron ions are labile, namely when the center is in the mixed-valence redox form as compared with the (μ-oxo) diferric one. Altogether, these results suggest that RIC is capable of delivering iron for the formation of iron-sulfur clusters. 相似文献

A solid-phase immunoassay has been developed for human immunoglobulin (Ig) E. The specific binding of 125I-labeled protein A (125I-PA) to the Fc region of rabbit IgG anti-IgE served as a quantitative measure of specific anti-IgE antibody bound to the IgE beads under optimal assay conditions. Inhibition of antibody binding by known amounts of standard IgE was reflected in a decreased binding of 125I-PA. The degree of inhibition of 125I-PA binding was related to the amount of fluid-phase IgE present and gave a standard curve which was used to determine the concentration of IgE in test samples. The sensitivity of this method and a double antibody radioimmunoassay (RIA), which was developed using the same IgE preparation and anti-IgE antibody, was approximately the same. These assays gave similar results when used to determine levels of IgE in normal human sera that had been absorbed with protein A—Sepharose to remove components responsible for specific and nonspecific interference in the assays. 相似文献

Mechanism of transferrin iron uptake by rat reticulocytes was studied using 59Fe- and 125I-labelled rat transferrin. Whereas more than 80% of the reticulocyte-bound 59Fe was located in the cytoplasmic fraction, only 25–30% of 125I-labelled transferrin was found inside the cells. As shown by the presence of acetylcholine esterase, 10–15% of the cytoplasmic 125I-labelled transferrin might have been derived from the contamination of this fraction by the plasma membrane fragments. Electron microscopic autoradiography indicated 26% of the cell-bound 125I-labelled transferrin to be inside the reticulocytes. Both the electron microscopic and biochemical studies showed that the rat reticulocytes endocytosed their plasma membrane independently of transferrin. Sepharose-linked transferrin was found to be capable of delivering 59Fe to the reticulocytes. Our results suggest that penetration of the cell membrane by transferrin is not necessary for the delivery of iron and that, although it might make a contribution to the cellular iron uptake, internalization of transferrin reflects endocytotic activity of the reticulocyte cell membrane. 相似文献

AbstractA photoaffinity derivative of highly purified 125I-labelled epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) has been synthesized. The heterobifunctional crosslinking reagent p-azidophenylglyoxal (PAPG) was bound to arginine residues in 125I-EGF. PAPG-125I-EGF bound to EGF receptors on rat fibroblasts and human A431 epidermoid carcinoma cells in culture. An apparent decreased affinity of PAPG-125I-EGF for the EGF receptor is in accord with at least one arginine being at or near the EGF receptor binding site. The PAPG-125I-EGF:EGF receptor complexes on rat cells were internalized to the same extent as control EGF:receptor complexes. A431 cells treated with PAPG-125I-EGF were irradiated with ultraviolet light and the labelled proteins were analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The 3 major labelled proteins had apparent molecular weights ranging from 75,000 to 200,000. Only the labelling of the 200,000-Mr protein was prevented by the addition of excess unlabelled EGF with the PAPG-125I-EGF. This molecular weight is in agreement with the reported size of the EGF receptor plus EGF. A protein with apparent molecular weight of 100,000 was labelled by 125I-EGF by an unknown mechanism which was dependent on the dose of UV light and blocked by the addition of excess unlabelled EGF. 相似文献

1. A new method is described for labelling proteins to high specific radioactivities with 125I. The protein is treated with a 125I-labelled acylating agent, iodinated 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, which reacts with free amino groups in the protein molecule to attach the 125I-labelled groups by amide bonds. 2. Three protein hormones have been labelled by this method, human growth hormone, human thyroid-stimulating hormone and human luteinizing hormone. Specific radioactivities of up to 170, 120 and 55μCi/μg respectively have been obtained for these hormones. 3. The immunoreactivity of these labelled hormones has been investigated by using a radioimmunoassay system specific for each hormone. These preparations have also been compared with and found to be equal or superior to labelled hormones prepared by chemical substitution of 125I into tyrosine residues of the proteins by using the chloramine-t-oxidation procedure. 4. With some antisera the immunoreactivity of the antigen was diminished by the introduction of a single I atom into the tyrosyl groups, whereas antigen containing a single 125I-labelled 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionamide group showed the same immunoreactivity as the unmodified antigen. 相似文献

A plasma membrane fraction has been prepared from rat testis using an aqueous double-phase polymer system containing dextran, poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 and Zn2+. The membrane-associated gonadotropin receptor for lutropin and human choriogonadotropin can be markedly stabilized by a thawing-washing step of frozen membranes which prolongs the apparent half-life of the unoccupied membrane-associated receptors from less than 1 h at 37°C to greater than 5 h. Also, no degradation of 125I-labeled human choriogonadotropin was detected following incubation with the membrane fraction. The equilibrium binding was characterized by an apparent association constant of 1.6 · 1010 M?1 and a receptor content of 33 fmol/mg protein. Binding kinetic yielded an association rate constant of 1.0 · 108 M?1, while the dissociation rate constant for human choriogonadotropin was too low to be accurately determined under the conditions used. In contrast, ovine lutropin could be reversibly bound to the membranes leaving the previously occupied receptors available for binding by 125I-labeled human choriogonadotropin. 相似文献

Abstract: Properties so far studied of the 125-kDa 14C-arginylated protein from rat brain show remarkable similarities with those of the STOP (stable tubule only polypeptide) protein. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the 125-kDa 14C-arginylated protein moves to the same position as the STOP protein. The 125-kDa 14C-arginylated protein was immunoprecipitated by the monoclonal Mab 296 antibody specific for neuronal STOP protein. The 125-kDa 14C-arginylated protein was retained by a calmodulin column like STOP protein. As occurs with the STOP protein, the 125-kDa 14C-arginylated protein is found in higher proportion in cold-stable than in cold-labile microtubules. However, the modified protein associates with microtubules in a lower proportion than the STOP protein. We conclude that the STOP protein incorporates arginine by a posttranslational reaction but that only a small fraction of the STOP protein shows acceptor capacity in vitro. 相似文献
