The amino acid and sugar compositions of four ribosome-inactivating proteins (gelonin, Momordica charantia inhibitor, dianthin 30 and dianthin 32) were determined. The proteins are all basic glycoproteins (pI greater than 8) containing mannose (more abundant in gelonin), glucose, xylose, fucose (absent from gelonin) and glucosamine. The ribosome-inactivating properties of the proteins examined are not modified by pretreatment with N-ethylmaleimide. Precipitating and inactivating antibodies can be raised against ribosome-inactivating proteins; a weak cross-reaction was observed only between dianthin 30 and dianthin 32. 相似文献

The rRNA depurination activities of five ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) were compared in vitro using yeast and tobacco leaf ribosomes as substrates. All of the RIPs (pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP), dianthin 32, tritin, barley RIP and ricin A-chain) were active on yeast ribosomes. PAP and dianthin 32 were highly active and ricin A-chain weakly active on tobacco ribosomes, whereas tritin and barley RIP were inactive. PAP and dianthin 32 were highly effective in inhibiting the formation of local lesions caused by tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) on tobacco leaves, whereas tritin, barley RIP and ricin A-chain were ineffective. The apparent anomaly between the in vitro rRNA depurination activity, but lack of antiviral activity of ricin A-chain was further investigated by assaying for rRNA depurination in situ following the topical application of the RIP to leaves. No activity was detected, a finding consistent with the apparent lack of antiviral activity of this RIP. Thus, it is concluded that there is a positive correlation between RIP-catalysed depurination of tobacco ribosomes and antiviral activity which gives strong support to the hypothesis that the antiviral activity of RIPs works through ribosome inactivation. 相似文献

The ability of dianthin 30 and 32 to inhibit translation in reticulocyte lysates and wheat germ extracts has been studied. The dianthins, like the A chains of the toxins abrin and ricin, inhibited protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates by inactivating the 60S ribosomal subunit. They also inhibited, at concentrations of 10 ng/ml, a protein-synthesizing system from wheat germ and inactivated isolated wheat germ ribosomes. The concentration of the dianthins in different tissues of the plant was determined by rocket immunoelectrophoresis and by the dianthin's ability to inhibit protein synthesis. Dianthin 32 was found only in the leaves and in growing shoots, while dianthin 30 was present throughout the plant. In the older parts of the plant, the dianthins constituted between 1 and 3% of the total extractable protein whereas much less was found in the younger parts. 相似文献

The rRNA N-glycosidase activities of the catalytically active A chains of the heterodimeric ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) ricin and abrin, the single-chain RIPs dianthin 30, dianthin 32, and the leaf and seed forms of pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) were assayed on E. coli ribosomes. All of the single-chain RIPs were active on E. coli ribosomes as judged by the release of a 243 nucleotide fragment from the 3′ end of 23S rRNA following aniline treatment of the RNA. In contrast, E. coli ribosomes were refractory to the A chains of ricin and abrin. The position of the modification of 23S rRNA by dianthin 32 was determined by primer extension and found to be A2660, which lies in a sequence that is highly conserved in all species. 相似文献

The effects of 30 type 1 and of 2 (ricin and volkensin) type 2 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) on Escherichia coli and Agrobacterium tumefaciens cell-free translation systems were compared with the effects on a rabbit reticulocyte translation system. The depurinating activity of RIPs on E. coli ribosomes was also evaluated. Only six type 1 RIPs inhibited endogenous mRNA-directed translational activity of E. coli lysates, with submicromolar 50% inhibitory concentrations. Four RIPs had similar activities on poly(U)-directed phenylalanine polymerization by E. coli ribosomes, and three RIPs inhibited poly(U)-directed polyphenylalanine synthesis by A. tumefaciens ribosomes, with submicromolar 50% inhibitory concentrations. 相似文献

1. Dianthin 30 and dianthin 32, two proteins isolated from the leaves of Diathus caryophyllus (carnation), were purified to homogeneity by chromatography on CM-cellulose. 2. The mol.wt. of dianthin 30 is 29 500 and that of dianthin 32 is 31 700. Both dianthins are glycoproteins containing mannose. 3. Dianthins inhibit protein synthesis in a lysate of rabbit reticulocytes, with an ID50 (concentration giving 50% inhibition) of 9.15 ng/ml (dianthin 30) and 3.6 ng/ml (dianthin 32). They act by damaging ribosomes in a less-than-equimolar ratio. Protein synthesis by intact cells is partially inhibited by dianthins at a concentration of 100 microgram/ml. 4. Dianthins mixed with tobacco-mosaic virus strongly decrease the number of local lesions on leaves of Nicotiana glutinosa. 相似文献

Many plant proteins possessing abortifacient activities were identified as ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs). The effect of several ribosome-inactivating proteins (saporin 6, dianthin 32, pokeweed antiviral protein from seeds, gelonin, bryodin-R, and momordin) on primary cultures of human trophoblasts and human embryonal fibroblasts and on choriocarcinoma (JAR and BeWo) and ovarian carcinoma (TG) cell lines was studied. Protein synthesis of human trophoblasts and BeWo cells was lowered by RIPs more than that of other cells. The trophoblastic receptors for estradiol were not affected by treatment of the cells with momordin. The binding and uptake of saporin 6 and momordin by BeWo and HeLa cells were not correlated to cell toxicity. 相似文献

Two new N-glycosidase type-1 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), denoted petroglaucin 1 and petrograndin, respectively, were isolated from the plantsPetrocoptis glaucifolia (Lag.) Boiss sp.viscosa (Rothm.) Laínz andPetrocoptis grandiflora Rothm. These new RIPs do not share H2N-terminal amino-acid sequence homology with petroglaucin (now denoted as petroglaucin 2), the only other type-1 RIP to be isolated fromP. glaucifolia (Arias et al. (1992) Planta186, 532–540). Petroglaucin 1 shares amino-acid sequence homology with RIPs from Cucurbitaceae while petroglaucin 2 and petrograndin do so with saporins and dianthin 30 (Caryophyllaceae). The new RIPs strongly inhibited protein synthesis at subnanomolar concentrations in rabbit reticulocyte lysates and other eukaryotic cell-free systems, but they were inactive on bacterial ribosomes. 相似文献

Immunotoxins were prepared with a Ber-H2 (anti-CD30) monoclonal antibody and native or recombinant dianthin 30, a ribosome-inactivating protein fromDianthus caryophyllus (carnation). Both immunotoxins selectively inhibited protein synthesis by CD30+ cell lines D430B (lymphoblastoid, infected with Epstein-Barr virus). L428 and L540 (both from Hodgkin's lymphoma). IC50 values (concentrations, as dianthin, causing 50% inhibition) ranged from 324 pM to 479 pM (immunotoxin with native dianthin 30) or from 45 pM to 182 pM (immunotoxin with recombinant dianthin 30). The effect of either immunotoxin on protein synthesis by the CD30– cell line K562 (from a chronic myeloid leukaemia) was not different from that of free dianthin (IC50 higher than nM). 相似文献

1. Ribosomes from M. domestica larvae were isolated and their susceptibility to the action of several ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) from plants was tested. 2. Ribosome-inactivating proteins inhibited, to different extents, phenylalanine polymerization by ribosomes. 3. Analysis of RNA from RIP-treated ribosomes showed the appearance of an aniline-cleavable rRNA fragment resulting from the N-glycosidase activity of the RIPs. 4. The release of adenine from saporin 6-treated M. domestica ribosomes was demonstrated by h.p.l.c. analysis. 相似文献

Ricin is a heterodimeric plant toxin and the prototype of type II ribosome-inactivating proteins. Its B-chain is a lectin that enables cell binding. After endocytosis, the A-chain translocates through the membrane of intracellular compartments to reach the cytosol where its N-glycosidase activity inactivates ribosomes, thereby arresting protein synthesis. We here show that ricin possesses a functional lipase active site at the interface between the two subunits. It involves residues from both chains. Mutation to alanine of catalytic serine 221 on the A-chain abolished ricin lipase activity. Moreover, this mutation slowed down the A-chain translocation rate and inhibited toxicity by 35%. Lipase activity is therefore required for efficient ricin A-chain translocation and cytotoxicity. This conclusion was further supported by structural examination of type II ribosome-inactivating proteins that showed that this lipase site is present in toxic (ricin and abrin) but is altered in nontoxic (ebulin 1 and mistletoe lectin I) members of this family. 相似文献

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are plant proteins with enzymatic activity, classified as type 1 (single chain) or type 2 (two chains). They are identified as rRNA N-glycosidases (EC 3.2.2.22) and cause an irreversible inhibition of protein synthesis. Among type 2 RIPs, there are potent toxins (ricin is the best known) that are considered as potential biological weapons. The development of a fast and sensitive method for the detection of biological agents is an important tool to prevent or deal with the consequences of intoxication. In this article, we describe a very sensitive immuno-polymerase chain reaction (IPCR) assay for the detection of RIPs-a type 1 RIP (dianthin) and a type 2 RIP (ricin)-that combines the specificity of immunological analysis with the exponential amplification of PCR. The limit of detection (LOD) of the technique was compared with the LODs of the conventional immunological methods enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and fluorescent immunosorbent assay (FIA). The LOD of IPCR was more than 1 million times lower than that of ELISA, allowing the detection of 10 fg/ml of dianthin and ricin. The possibility to detect ricin in human serum was also investigated, and a similar sensitivity was observed (10 fg/ml). IPCR appears to be the most sensitive method for the detection of ricin and other RIPs. 相似文献

Transformed root lines of Luffa cylindrica (L.) Roem. (Cucurbitaceae) were established by inoculation of in vitro grown plantlets with wild type Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain 1855. Cloned lines of hairy roots were tested for the presence of ribosome-inactivating proteins; crude extracts inhibited protein synthesis in a reaction mixture based on rabbit reticulocyte lysate. Inhibitory activity increased during culture period, reaching a maximum value in the stationary phase. No activity could be detected in the culture medium, nor in extracts from callus and/or suspension cultures. A ribosome-inactivating protein having specific activity of 62,100 U mg protein–1 and a molecular mass of 26–28,000 Da was purified to homogeneity. The protein showed N-glycosidase activity on rat liver ribosomes. The results demonstrate that hairy root cultures can be successfully utilized for the in vitro production of ribosome-inactivating proteins.Abbreviations BAP

The basic protein fraction of tissue extracts from 40 edible plants inhibited cell-free protein synthesis and released adenine from herring sperm DNA, thus having adenine glycosylase activity. This suggested the presence of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in the plant extracts. This indication was further strengthened by the presence of the two activities after a partial chromatographic purification of three extracts, including that from Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato), which had very low activity. From the extract of Cucurbita moschata (pumpkin), the most active one, a glycoprotein of 30,665 Da was purified which had the properties of a RIP, in that (i) it inhibited protein synthesis by a rabbit reticulocyte lysate with IC50 (concentration giving 50% inhibition) 0.035 nM (1.08 ng ml(-1)) and by HeLa, HT29 and JM cells with IC50 in the 100 nM range, (ii) deadenylated hsDNA and other polynucleotidic substrates, and (iii) depurinated yeast rRNA at a concentration of 0.1 ng ml(-1), all values being comparable to those of other RIPs. The C. moschata RIP gave a weak cross-reaction only with an antiserum against dianthin 32, but not with antisera against other RIPs, and had superoxide dismutase, antifungal and antibacterial activities. 相似文献

Ribosome-inactivating proteins from plants inhibit ribosome activity of Trypanosoma and Leishmania 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Ribosomes from Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and from Leishmania infantum were isolated and optimal conditions for in vitro translation were established. The effect of ribosome-inactivating proteins extracted from several plants was then assessed in order to identify those suitable for the preparation of immunotoxins against these organisms. Ribosomes from both species were inactivated by some ribosome-inactivating proteins (dianthins, saporins, pokeweed antiviral proteins, and the ribosome-inactivating chain of abrin). The similarity of the effects on the ribosomes from the two species examined indicates that ribosome-inactivating proteins should also be effective in a similar way on ribosomes from other species of Trypanosoma and Leishmania. 相似文献

Modeccin inhibits polypeptide-chain elongation catalysed by Artemia salina (brine shrimp) ribosomes by inactivating the 60 S ribosomal subunit. Among the individual steps of elongation, peptide-bond formation, catalysed by 60 S peptidyltransferase, is unaffected by the toxin, whereas the binding of EF 2 (elongation factor 2) to ribosomes is strongly inhibited. Modeccin does not affect the poly(U)-dependent non-enzymic binding of either deacylated tRNAPhe or phenylalanyl-tRNA to ribosomes. The inhibitory effect of modeccin on the EF 1 (elongation factor 1)-dependent binding of phenylalanyl-tRNA is discussed, since it is decreased by tRNAPhe, which stimulates the binding reaction. The analysis of the distribution of ribosome-bound radioactivity during protein synthesis shows that modeccin consistently inhibits the radioactivity bound as long-chain peptides, but depending on the experimental conditions, can leave unchanged or even greatly stimulates the radioactivity bound as phenylalanyl-tRNA and/or short-chain peptides. It is concluded that, during the complete elongation cycle, modeccin does not affect the binding of the first aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosomes, but inhibits some step in the subsequent repetitive activity of either EF 1 or EF 2. The results obtained indicate that the mechanism of action of modeccin is very similar to that of ricin and related plant toxins such as abrin and crotin. 相似文献

Tumorous crown gall lines of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) were obtained by transforming leaf explants by the co-cultivation procedure; transformed lines were checked for their
ability to produce in vitro the type 1 ribosome-inactivating proteins dianthins. Crude extracts from cultured callus were
able to inhibit protein synthesis in a cell-free system based on rabbit reticulocyte lysate. A protein with an apparent molecular
mass comparable to that of dianthin 30 from leaves was identified from its chromatographic behaviour and by Western analysis.
Dianthin from callus showed a specific activity comparable to that reported for the leaf isoform. The presence and accumulation
in the tumorous line of a 37 kDa protein with no ribosome-inactivating activity and strong antigenic reactivity to dianthins
is discussed.
