The Pfitzner-Moffatt oxidation procedure has been used to prepare five derivatives of tetrodotoxin by covalent attachment of the oxidized toxin to lysine, glycine, beta-alanine or ethylenediamine. These derivates reach specific radioactivities between 5 and 45 Ci/mmol. The equilibrium properties of binding of these tetrodotoxin derivatives to membrane-embedded or solubilized sodium channels from crustacean nerves have been analysed and compared to the binding properties of tritiated tetrodotoxin and saxitoxin to the same biological systems. All these highly radiolabelled derivatives associate to the tetrodotoxin binding component with properties similar to those of tetrodotoxin itself. The synthetic route described in this paper may be used to prepare other types of tetrodotoxin derivatives such as fluorescent derivatives for example. 相似文献

The tetrodotoxin binding component from garfish olfactory nerve membranes has been solubilized using the nonionic detergent Triton X-100. Tetrodotoxin binds to the solubilized component with a dissociation constant KD = 2.5 × 10?9 and under saturating conditions 1.95 × 10?12 moles of tetrodotoxin are bound per milligram of solubilized protein. Upon solubilization the toxin binding component becomes much less stable towards heat, chemical modification and enzymatic degradation. Sucrose gradient velocity sedimentation yields an S value of 9.2 for the extracted binding component and from gel filtration data the binding component appears to be slightly larger than β-D-galactosidase. 相似文献

Association of a solubilized prostaglandin E2 receptor from renal medulla with a pertussis toxin-reactive guanine nucleotide regulatory protein 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was found to bind specifically, reversibly, and in a protein-dependent manner to a single class of high affinity (KD approximately equal to 20 nM) binding sites in membranes prepared from canine renal outer medulla. PGE2 binding activity was solubilized from these membranes in a stable form (t1/2 greater than 14 days) in the absence of ligand in 75% yields using digitonin. The characteristics of PGE2 binding to membranes and solubilized protein were similar with respect to pH dependence, KD for PGE2, and order of potency of prostaglandins (PGE2 approximately PGE1 greater than PGF2 alpha greater than PGD2) in inhibiting the binding of [3H]PGE2. Importantly, the extents of binding of PGE2 to membranes and to a solubilized preparation partially purified by chromatography on wheat germ agglutinin-Affi-Gel 10 were both increased about 2-fold by GDP and GTP and its analogs. Treatment of the digitonin-solubilized PGE2 binding activity with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid (CHAPS) rendered the binding activity insensitive to stimulation by GTP and decreased the apparent molecular weight of the peak of PGE2 binding activity from about 175,000 to about 65,000. These results suggest that the PGE2 binding activity resides in a protein which is tightly associated with, but distinct from, a guanine nucleotide regulatory (N) protein. PGE2 (greater than or equal to 10 nM) was found to stimulate GTPase activity of renal outer medullary membranes, and this stimulation was eliminated by pretreatment of membranes with pertussis toxin and NAD, but not cholera toxin and NAD. Treatment of both particulate and solubilized preparations of PGE2 binding activity with pertussis toxin plus NAD also eliminated the ability of GTP to stimulate PGE2 binding. This evidence indicates that it is the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, Ni, with which the PGE2 binding activity is associated. Thus, this PGE2 binding activity is an inhibitory PGE2 receptor, quite possibly one that mediates inhibition of vasopressin-induced cAMP formation in the medullary thick ascending limb and/or collecting tubule of the kidney. 相似文献

Mammalian sperm possess guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) that are involved in signal transduction pathways leading to zona pellucida (ZP)-mediated acrosomal exocytosis. We have previously examined ZP-G protein dynamics in mouse sperm homogenates, as well as cell-free membrane preparations, and our data support the existence of ZP receptor-G protein complexes in sperm membranes. However, the composition of this complex has not been identified due to experimental limitations of the membrane preparations. In the present study, a detergent-solubilized preparation from mouse sperm membranes that retained the signaling properties of cell homogenates and cell-free membrane preparations was developed using buffers containing digitonin and cholate. GTPγS, a poorly hydrolyzable analogue of GTP, bound to these solubilized preparations in a specific and concentration-dependent fashion that reached saturation at 100 nM. Incubation of this solubilized membrane preparation with heat-solubilized ZP resulted in an increase in specific GTPγS binding in a concentration-dependent manner, with a maximal response at 4-6 ZP/μl. Mastoparan (50 μM) increased GTPγS binding to levels similar to that seen with solubilized ZP. Mastoparan plus ZP stimulated GTPγS binding to the same extent as mastoparan or ZP alone. Pertussis toxin completely inhibited ZP-stimulated GTPγS binding and decreased mastoparan-stimulated GTPγS binding by 50–60%. Purified ZP3, the ZP component that possesses quantitatively all of the sperm binding and acrosomal exocytosis-inducing activities of the intact ZP, stimulated GTPγS binding to an extent similar to that of solubilized ZP. The properties of this solubilized membrane preparation are similar to those found in the cell homogenates and cell-free membrane preparations, suggesting that the components involved in ZP3-mediated signal transduction are effectively solubilized and are responsive to the ZP3 ligand. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Electrophysiological studies with neuroblastoma cells have shown that toxin gamma from the venom of the scorpion Tityus serrulatus is a new toxin specific for the gating system of the Na+ channel. The procedure which solubilizes the tetrodotoxin receptor from rat brain also solubilizes the Tityus gamma toxin receptor. Binding experiments on the solubilized receptor with a radioiodinated derivative of Tityus gamma toxin have shown: (i) that the TiTx gamma-receptor complex is very stable with a dissociation constant of 8.6 X 10(-12) M and a very slow dissociation (T 1/2 = 15 h); (ii) that the toxin recognizes a class of sites with a 1:1 stoichiometry with those for tetrodotoxin (Bmax = 1.3 pmol/mg protein). The radioiodinated Tityus gamma-receptor complex has been substantially purified by ion-exchange chromatography, lectin affinity chromatography and sucrose gradient sedimentation. A ratio of one Tityus gamma toxin binding site per tetrodotoxin binding site was found throughout the purification. The purified material exhibited a sedimentation coefficient of 10.4S and had an apparent mol. wt. of 270 000 on SDS-gel electrophoresis. No other polypeptide chains were demonstrated to be associated with this large protein in the Tityus gamma receptor. The main conclusion is that the tetrodotoxin binding site associated with the selectivity filter of the Na+ channel and the Tityus gamma toxin binding site associated with the gating component are probably carried by the same polypeptide chain. 相似文献

Zona pellucida (ZP)-induced acrosomal exocytosis in mammalian spermatozoa is thought to be mediated by signal transduction cascades similar to those found in hormonally responsive cells. In order to characterize this process further, we have examined the role of GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) in coupling sperm-ZP interaction to intracellular second messenger systems in mouse sperm. An in vitro signal transduction assay was developed to assess ZP-G protein dynamics in sperm membrane preparations. Guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S), a poorly hydrolyzable analogue of GTP, bound to these membranes in a specific and concentration-dependent fashion which reached saturation at 100 nM. Incubation of the membrane preparations with heat-solubilized ZP resulted in a significant increase in specific GTP gamma S binding in a concentration-dependent fashion with a half-maximal response at 1.25-2 ZP/microliters. Solubilized ZP also caused a significant increase in high affinity GTPase activity in the membranes over basal levels. Mastoparan increased specific GTP gamma S binding to the sperm membranes and stimulated high-affinity membrane GTPase activity to levels consistently greater than that seen with the solubilized ZP. Mastoparan, together with solubilized ZP, gave the same level of stimulation of GTP gamma S binding as mastoparan alone. Pertussis toxin completely inhibited the ZP-stimulated GTP gamma S binding, but only decreased mastoparan-stimulated GTP gamma S binding by 70-80%. Purified ZP3, the ZP component which possesses quantitatively all of the acrosomal exocytosis-inducing activity of the intact ZP, stimulated GTP gamma S binding to the same level as solubilized ZP; ZP1 and ZP2 did not stimulate GTP gamma S binding. ZP from fertilized eggs (ZPf), which does not possess acrosome reaction-inducing activity, also failed to stimulate GTP gamma S binding to sperm membranes. These data demonstrate the direct activation of a Gi protein in sperm membrane preparations in response to the ZP glycoprotein, ZP3, that induces the acrosome reaction. These data imply that Gi protein activation is an early event in the signal sequence leading to sperm acrosomal exocytosis. 相似文献

Biochemical characterization of the Tityus gamma toxin receptor associated with the voltage-sensitive Na+ channel was carried out in different tissue preparations with the use of an iodinated toxin derivative. The affinity of the toxin for the receptor is high with a dissociation constant of 4 X 10(-12) M for rat synaptosomes. The density of binding sites is in the range of 0.3 to 2 pmol/mg of protein. Toxin gamma does not seem to bind to Na+ channels located on transverse-tubule membranes of skeletal muscle, but only to Na+ channels located on the sarcolemma. Both affinity labelling and radiation inactivation analysis indicate a molecular weight for the toxin receptor of 270 000 daltons. The same molecular weight is found using the tetrodotoxin. Only one single major protein component of the Na+ channel was purified from Electrophorus electroplax, rat brain membranes and chick heart membrane using the toxin gamma as a marker. The molecular weight of this component is 230 000-270 000 daltons. Reconstitution of the purified Na+ channel into planar lipid bilayers has been carried out. Two different types of electrically excitable channels with conductances of 150 and 25 pS were detected. The activity of both channels is blocked by saxitoxin. 相似文献

The omega-conotoxin receptor in brain membranes contains components of Mr approximately equal to 310,000, approximately equal to 230,000, and 37,000 as identified by photoaffinity labeling. The toxin specifically bound to two sites with apparent dissociation constants (Kd) of approximately 3 pM and 3.5 nM under the conditions employed. There was about 8 times more of the low affinity site than the high affinity site. Binding was not affected by dihydropyridines or verapamil. However, diltiazem stereospecifically inhibited the binding to the high affinity site. Dissociation of the toxin from the membranes was very slow and only partial. Among the detergents tested, digitonin solubilized the highest toxin-binding activity. The digitonin extract contained only a single class of binding sites with an apparent Kd of about 0.46 nM. Probably only the high affinity binding site was recovered in active form in digitonin extract. The properties of the toxin binding to digitonin extract were in good agreement with those of the binding to the high affinity site in the original membranes. Photoaffinity labeling of the digitonin extract indicated that the solubilized toxin receptor contained the two large components (Mr congruent 310,000 and approximately equal to 230,000) observed in the membranes. 相似文献

The thyrotropin receptor from bovine thyroid plasma membranes has been solubilized using lithium diiodosalicylate, and an assay to measure thyrotropin binding to the solubilized receptor has been developed. Both the solubilized thyrotropin receptor and the thyrotropin receptor on thyroid plasma membranes have effectively identical nonlinear Scatchard plots and negatively sloped Hill plots, i.e. both preparations have receptors which appear to exhibit a similar negatively cooperative relationship. Although the pH optimum of thyrotropin binding to the solubilized receptor is the same as that of the thyroid plasma membrane receptor, pH 6.0, the pH dependency curve of the solubilized receptor is slightly different in its outline. Thyrotropin binding to the solubilized receptor is less sensitive to salt inhibition than is binding to the thyroid plasma membrane receptor; however, optimal binding remains at 0 degrees. The relative affinities of thyrotropin and two glycoprotein hormones which can be considered structural analogs, luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin, are 100:10:5, respectively, toward plasma membrane receptors, but 100:25:40 toward the solubilized receptors. The solubilized receptor preparation is heterogeneous in size in that it has binding components with molecular weights of 286,000, 160,000, 75,000, and 15,000 to 30,000. Tryptic digestion converts all three higher molecular weight components to the 15,000 to 30,000 molecular weight species, and the 15,000 to 30,000 molecular weight receptor component has all of the binding properties of the solubilized receptor preparation before tryptic digestion including an identical nonlinear Scatchard plot. It has the same size as and coelutes from Sephadex G-100 with a 15,000 to 30,000 molecular weight receptor released by tryptic digestion of bovine thyroid plasma membranes or tryptic digestion of bovine or dog thyroid cells in culture. The tryptic fragment of the solubilized receptor or preparations has been purified almost 250-fold by affinity chromatography on thyrotropin-Sepharose columns. The binding activity is lost when the solubilized thyrotropin receptor preparation is exposed to beads of neuraminidase-Sepharose or conconavalin A-Sepharose. 相似文献

The bovine striatal dopamine D1 receptor was solubilized with a combination of sodium cholate and NaCl in the presence of phospholipids, following treatment of membranes with a dopaminergic agonist (SKF-82526-J) or antagonist (SCH-23390). The solubilized receptors were subsequently reconstituted into lipid vesicles by gel-filtration. A comparison of ligand-binding properties shows that the solubilized and reconstituted receptors bound [3H]SCH-23390 to a homogeneous site in a saturable, stereospecific and reversible manner with a Kd of 0.95 and 1.1 nM and a Bmax of 918 and 885 fmol/mg protein respectively for agonist- and antagonist-pretreated preparations. These values are very similar to those obtained for membrane-bound receptors. The competition of antagonists for [3H]SCH-23390 binding exhibited a clear D1 dopaminergic order in the reconstituted preparation obtained from either agonist or antagonist-pretreated membranes, except that (+)butaclamol was about four-fold more potent thancis-flupentixol in displacing [3H]SCH-23390 binding in preparation obtained from agonist-pretreated membranes compared to antagonist-pretreated membranes. The agonist/[3H]SCH-23390 competition studies revealed the presence of a highaffinity component of agonist binding in both the reconstituted receptor preparations. The number of high-affinity agonist binding sites, however, is 40–80% higher in reconstituted preparation obtained from antagonist-treated membrane compared to that obrained from the agonist-treated membrane. In both the preparations, 100 M guanylylimidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) completely abolished the high-affinity component of agonist binding compared to partial abolition in the native membranes, indicating a close association of a G-protein with the solubilized receptors. Whether the receptor was solubilized following agonist or antagonist preincubation of the membranes, the receptor-detergent complex eluted from a steric-exclusion HPLC column with an apparent molecular size of 360,000. Preincubation of the solubilized preparations with Gpp(NH)p had virtually no effect on the elution profile suggesting a lack of guanine nucleotide-dependent dissociation of G-protein receptor complex. 相似文献

Characterization, solubilization, affinity labeling and purification of the cardiac Na+ channel using Tityus toxin gamma 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Saturable, high-affinity binding of iodinated toxin gamma from Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom (TiTx gamma) to Na+ channel receptor was identified in sarcolemma membrane of chick heart. A binding capacity of 450-600 fmol/mg of protein was found similar to that of tetrodotoxin-binding component. The enrichment of these membrane-bound toxin binding sites follows that of other sarcolemma markers. Kinetic data and displacement of 125I-TiTx gamma from its binding sites by unlabeled TiTx gamma gave an equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of 1-3 pM. The gating component and the selectivity filter of the voltage-sensitive Na+ channel, identified as binding sites of TiTx gamma and of tetrodotoxin respectively, have been efficiently solubilized with Nonidet P-40. Purification was achieved by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25, affinity chromatography on wheat-germ-agglutinin-Sepharose and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. An enrichment of 1400-fold from the original detergent extract was measured for both toxin binding sites (1120-1230 pmol/mg of protein). Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis reveals a single large polypeptide component of Mr230000-270000. The purified material exhibits an apparent sedimentation coefficient of 8.8S. Covalent cross-linking of 125I-TiTx gamma to its membrane-embedded cardiac receptor shows that the cross-linked material, solubilized and purified by the same procedure comprises a single polypeptide chain of the same Mr of 230000-270000. Furthermore, as seen for Electrophorus electricus electroplax and rat brain, the tetrodotoxin-binding component and the TiTx gamma-binding component are carried by the same polypeptide chain. The functional Na+ channel might be an oligomer of this subunit of Mr23000-270000. 相似文献

Binding activity of a putative central neurotransmitter, L-glutamic acid, was examined in the supernatant preparations solubilized from rat retinal membranes by Nonidet P-40. [3H]Glutamate binding activity increased linearly with increasing concentrations of the solubilized proteins up to 15 micrograms. The binding activity reached an equilibrium within 10 min at 2 degrees C, while increasing with incubation time up to 60 min at 30 degrees C. Addition of an excess of nonradioactive glutamate rapidly decreased the activity at 30 degrees C. Scatchard analysis revealed that the solubilized retinal binding activity consisted of a single component with a KD of 0.25 microM and a Bmax of 57.4 pmol/mg protein. The solubilized binding activity exhibited a stereospecificity and a structure selectivity to L-glutamate, and was abolished by quisqualate, L-glutamate diethyl ester, and DL-2-amino-3-phosphonopropionate. None of the other agonists and antagonists for the central excitatory amino acid receptors affected the binding activity. Reduction of incubation temperature from 30 degrees C to 2 degrees C resulted in a drastic attenuation of the binding activity due to decrement of the number of the apparent binding sites. Cation-exchange column chromatography revealed that unidentified radioactive material was in fact formed during the incubation of [3H]glutamate with the retinal preparations at 30 degrees C. These results suggest that retinal [3H]glutamate binding activity may be derived at least in part from the quisqualate-sensitive membranous enzyme with a stereospecific and structure-selective high affinity for the central neurotransmitter. 相似文献

The purification of axonal membranes of crustaceans was followed by measuring enrichment in [3H]tetrodotoxin binding capacity and in Na+, K+-ATPase activity. A characteristic of these membranes is their high content of lipids and their low content of protein as compared to other types of plasmatic membranes. The axonal membrane contains myosin-like, actin-like, tropomyosin-like, and tubulin-like proteins. It also contains Na+, K+-ATPase and acetylcholinesterase. The molecular weights of these two enzymes after solubilization are 280,000 and 270,000, respectively. The molecular weights of the catalytic subunits are 96,000 for ATPase and 71,000 for acetylcholinesterase. We confirmed the presence of a nicotine binding component in the axonal membrane of the lobster but we have been unable to find [3H]nicotine binding to crab axonal membranes. The binding to axonal membranes og of the sodium channel, has been studied in detail. The dissociation constant for the binding of [3H]tetrodotoxin to the axonal membrane receptor is 2.9 nM at pH 7.4. The concentration of the tetrodotoxin receptor in crustacean membranes is about 10 pmol/mg of membrane protein, 7 times less than the acetylcholinesterase, 30 times less than the Na+, K+-ATPase, and 30 times less than the nicotine binding component in the lobster membrane. A reasonable estimate indicates that approximately only one peptide chain in 1000 constitutes the tetrodotoxin binding part of the sodium channel in the axonal membrane. Veratridine, which acts selectively on the resting sodium permeability, binds to the phospholipid part of the axonal membrane. [3H]Veratridine binding to membranes parallels the electrophysiological effect. Veratridine and tetrodotoxin have different receptor sites. Although tetrodotoxin can repolarize the excitable membrane of a giant axon depolarized by veratridine, veratridine does not affect the binding of [3H]tetrodotoxin to purified axonal membranes. Similarly, tetrodotoxin does not affect the binding of [3H]veratridine to axonal membranes. Scorpion neurotoxin I, a presynaptic toxin which affects both the Na+ and the K+ channels, does not interfere with the binding of [3H]tetrodotoxin or [3H]veratridine to axonal membranes. Tetrodotoxin, veratridine, and scorpion neurotoxin I, which have in common the perturbation of the normal functioning of the sodium channel, act upon three different types of receptor sites. 相似文献

A GTP-dependent regulatory component of adenylate cyclase was found in myelin from rat brain. The fraction solubilized from myelin contained a component that reconstituted guanine nucleotide-responsive adenylate cyclase activity when combined with the catalytic unit of adenylate cyclase prepared from rat brain. Purified myelin demonstrated little adenylate cyclase activity, even in the presence of F- or Mn2+. The reconstituted activity was dependent on the amount of the solubilized myelin fraction and required the presence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate, a hydrolysis-resistant analog of GTP. The elution pattern of the component solubilized from myelin in gel filtration was very similar to that of a GTP-dependent regulatory component from synaptic plasma membranes. The content of the regulatory component-like activity in myelin was estimated to be 50-60% of that in synaptic plasma membranes. Cholera toxin ADP-ribosylated proteins having molecular weights of 48,000, 38,000, 23,000, 20,000, and 15,000 and other minor peptides in myelin, some of which were also present in synaptic plasma membranes. We conclude that myelin contained a GTP-dependent regulatory component of adenylate cyclase despite the apparent lack of adenylate cyclase activity in myelin. 相似文献

Biophysical characterization of the purified alpha 1-adrenergic receptor and identification of the hormone binding subunit 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The alpha 1-adrenergic receptor has been solubilized in active form from rat hepatic membranes with the nonionic detergent, digitonin, and purified by affinity and gel filtration chromatography to homogeneity with a specific activity of 14,400 pmol/mg of protein. The affinity chromatographic steps of the purification procedure were achieved by the use of a newly synthesized analog (2-[4(2-succinoyl)piperazin-1-yl]-4-amino-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline, CP-57,609) of the highly selective alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist, prazosin, immobilized via an amide linkage to agarose. The resulting purified receptor bound [3H]prazosin and a variety of adrenergic agents with the specificity, stereoselectivity, and affinities equivalent to those observed with membrane-bound and solubilized receptor preparations. The purified receptor.digitonin complex had a Stokes radius of 49 A and a sedimentation coefficient (s20w) of 7.1, as determined by AcA-34 gel filtration chromatography and sucrose gradient density centrifugation, respectively. Based on these hydrodynamic parameters, the calculated molecular weight of the receptor.digitonin complex was estimated at 147,000. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis following the final purification step revealed a single band of protein at 59,000 daltons from which [3H]prazosin binding activity could be recovered after renaturation of the receptor protein. These findings indicate that the protein purified from rat hepatic membranes is the hormone binding component of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor and that the receptor molecule most likely contains more than one Mr = 59,000 subunit. 相似文献

Interaction Between Tetanus Toxin and Rabbit Kidney: A Comparison with Rat Brain Preparations 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1
125I-Tetanus toxin is bound by basolateral membranes from rabbit kidneys. Fixation is specific, as it is minimally inhibited by the nonbinding (fragment B) moiety of tetanus toxin, whereas the binding moiety (fragment C) is equivalent to the native toxin in inhibiting fixation. Competition is also pronounced with mildly toxoided toxin. Association and dissociation of 125I-toxin are delayed in kidney when compared to brain membranes. The binding sites in kidney membranes are partially sensitive to neuraminidase and resist heating to 56 degrees C, in contrast to those in brain membranes which are very sensitive to both treatments. The binding sites of the two preparations can be discriminated further by variation of the ionic environment. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-disc gel electrophoresis followed by transfer to nitrocellulose, and TLC with consecutive overlay indicate that tetanus toxin exclusively binds to long-chain gangliosides from rat brain. Binding sites in kidney membranes from rabbits and rats can be made visible by the overlay technique. They are apparently heterogeneous and more hydrophobic. We conclude that rabbit kidney contains binding sites for tetanus toxin which resemble gangliosides but differ from the major gangliosides in brain both chemically and with respect to their interaction with tetanus toxin. 相似文献

The binding of [3H]forskolin to proteins solubilized from bovine brain membranes was studied by precipitating proteins with polyethylene glycol and separating [3H]forskolin bound to protein from free [3H]forskolin by rapid filtration. The Kd for [3H]forskolin binding to solubilized proteins was 14 nM which was similar to that for [3H]forskolin binding sites in membranes from rat brain and human platelets. Forskolin analogs competed for [3H]forskolin binding sites with the same rank potency in both brain membranes and in proteins solubilized from brain membranes. [3H]forskolin bound to proteins solubilized from membranes with a Bmax of 38 fmol/mg protein which increased to 94 fmol/mg protein when GppNHp was included in the binding assay. In contrast, GppNHp had no effect on [3H]forskolin binding to proteins solubilized from membranes preactivated with GppNHp. Solubilized adenylate cyclase from non-preactivated membranes had a basal activity of 130 pmol/mg/min which was increased 7-fold by GppNHp. In contrast, adenylate cyclase from preactivated membranes had a basal activity of 850 pmol/mg/min which was not stimulated by GppNHp or forskolin. Thus, the number of high affinity binding sites for [3H]forskolin in solubilized preparations correlated with the activation of adenylate cyclase by GppNHp via the guanine nucleotide binding protein (GS). 相似文献

[3H]Tetrodotoxin binds to a single class of receptor sites in homogenates of human brain with a KD of 9.1 nM at 0 degree C and a maximal binding capacity of 5.9 pmol/mg of protein. This tetrodotoxin receptor has been solubilized, and several parameters influencing the efficiency of this critical step have been studied. Treatment of brain membranes with 2% (wt/vol) Nonidet P-40 solubilizes up to 38% of the tetrodotoxin receptor sites. The duration of this solubilization step must not exceed 15 min at an optimal pH of 6.8. The binding activity is most stable when exogenous phosphatidylcholine is added to the soluble receptor with a phosphatidylcholine/detergent ratio of 1:5. 相似文献

The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex as defined by the binding of [3H]MK-801 has been solubilized from membranes prepared from both rat and porcine brain using the anionic detergent deoxycholate (DOC). Of the detergents tested DOC extracted the most receptors (21% for rat, 34% for pig), and the soluble complex, stabilized by the presence of MK-801, could be stored for up to 1 week at 4 degrees C with less than 25% loss in activity. Receptor preparations from both species exhibited [3H]MK-801 binding properties in solution very similar to those observed in membranes (Bmax = 485 +/- 67 fmol/mg of protein, KD = 11.5 +/- 2.9 nM in rat; Bmax = 728 +/- 108 fmol/mg of protein, KD = 7.1 +/- 1.6 nM in pig, n = 3). The pharmacological profile of the solubilized [3H]MK-801 binding site was virtually identical to that observed in membranes. The rank order of potency of: MK-801 greater than (-)-MK-801 = thienylcyclohexylpiperidine greater than dexoxadrol greater than SKF 10,047 greater than ketamine, for inhibition of [3H]MK-801 binding, was observed in all preparations. The receptor complex in solution exhibited many of the characteristic modulations observed in membranes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The binding of 125I-labelled human growth hormone (hGH) to a purified plasma membrane preparation from the liver of pregnant rabbit, and to receptors solubilized from this fraction with Triton X-100, was dependent on time, temperature, the cations used and the receptor concentration. Solubilization did not affect the binding properties of the receptors at low concentrations of Triton X-100. Some somatogenic hormones, such as bovine GH, and some lactogenic hormones, such as ovine prolactin, displaced 125I-labelled hGH from purified plasma membranes and solubilized receptor preparations, but GHs and prolactins from various other species were rather ineffective. The results indicate that although there are binding sites for hGH in these pregnant rabbit liver membranes, few of these are specifically somatogenic or lactogenic. The binding properties of the purified plasma membranes are similar to those of a microsomal preparation studied previously, suggesting that the complex nature of the binding of hGH is not due to the heterogeneity of cellular membranes used to study binding, but is a property of the receptors associated with plasma membranes. 相似文献
