Tosyllysine chloromethyl ketone and tosylphenylalanine chloromethyl ketone in vitro are active-site specific and irreversible inhibitors of trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) and chymotrypsin (EC. 3.4.21.1) respectively. Using rat hepatoma cells in suspension culture, both inhibitors were found to partially inhibit breakdown of prelabelled cell proteins ot amino acids, the effect being greastest in the absence of serum. Protein synthesis in rat hepatoma cells, reticulocytes and reticulyte lysates was also irreversibly inhibited by these compounds. Reduction of ATP levels with antimycin a inhibited protein degradation, but neither tosylphenylalanine chloromethyl ketone nor tosyllysine chloromethyl ketone had any effect on ATP concentration in rat hepatoma cells. These results suggest that the degradation of at least some proteins in animal cells may involve the action of serine protease(s). 相似文献

Incorporation of amino acids into proteins in HeLa cells, virus-transformed 3T3 mouse fibroblasts, and mouse plasmacytoma cells is inhibited after the addition of L-1-tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone, an alkylating agent and chymotrypsin-specific protease inhibitor. Addition of this drug to tissue culture cells at concentrations of 20 to 30 mug per ml results in an irreversible inhibition of the incorporation of amino acids into cellular proteins, and a rapid and complete breakdown of polyribosomes. A comparative study examining the effects of L-1-tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone and several known inhibitors of in vivo protein synthesis, with known mechanisms of action, revealed that an optimal concentration of L-1-tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone: (a) immediately and selectively inhibits initiation of protein synthesis, (b) does not significantly affect normal elongation rates, and (c) does not promote a premature release of nascent peptides. L-1-Tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromenthyl ketone may prove to be a useful tool in investigating the initiatior of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. 相似文献

A chloromethyl ketone derivative of pyroglutamic acid was newly synthesized and its reactivity with bacterial pyroglutamyl aminopeptidase (L-pyroglutamyl-peptide hydrolas, EC 3.4.11.8) as an affinity labelling reagent was examined. The compound was found to inactivate the enzyme markedly and rapidly at very low concentrations, though the enzyme was resistant to N-tosyl-phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone. The rate of the enzyme inactivation by pyroglutamyl chloromethyl ketone was retarded in the presence of a poor substrate, pyroglutamyl valine. The enzyme inactivated by treating with p-chloromercuribenzoate failed to react with pyroglutamyl chloromethyl ketone. These results strongly suggest an active site-directed mechanism for the enzyme inactivation by pyroglutamyl chloromethyl ketone. This compound was shown to be useful as a titrant for the catalytically active protein of pyroglutamyl aminopeptidase. 相似文献

Summary The Bacillus sp. no. AH-101 alkaline protease showed higher hydrolysing activity against insoluble fibrous natural proteins such as elastin and keratin in comparison with subtilisins and Proteinase K. The optimum pH of the enzyme toward elastin and keratin was pH 10.5 and pH 11.0–12.0 respectively. The specific activity toward elastin and keratin was 10 600 units/mg protein and 3970 units/mg protein, respectively. The enzymatic activity was not inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoic acid and iodoacetic acid. Carbobenzoxy-glycyl-glycyl-L-phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone completely inhibited the caseinolytic activity, but 36% elastolytic activity remained. No inhibitory effect on caseinolytic and elastolytic activity was shown by tosyl-L-phenylalanyl-chloromethyl ketone, tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone, carbobenzoxy-L-phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone, and elastatinal. The amino acid composition and amino terminal sequence of the enzyme were determined. The no. AH-101 alkaline protease was compared with subtilisin BPN', subtilisin Carlsberg, no. 221, and Ya-B alkaline proteases. Extensive sequence homology existed among these enzymes.

The pattern of protein synthesis was compared in several organs of maize (Zea mays L.) under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Protein synthesis was measured by [35S]methionine incorporation and analysis by two-dimensional native-SDS (sodium lauryl sulfate) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography. The aerobic protein-synthesis profiles were very different for root, endosperm, scutellum and anther wall. However, except for some characteristic qualitative and quantitative differences, the patterns of protein synthesis during anaerobiosis were remarkably similar for these diverse organs and also for mesocotyl and coleoptile. The proteins synthesized were the anaerobic polypeptides (ANPs) which have been previously described in anaerobic roots of seedlings. Leaves exhibited no detectable protein synthesis under anaerobic conditions, and died after a short anaerobic treatment. Evidence is presented that the ANPs are not a generalized response to stress. This indicates that the ANPs are synthesized as a specific response to anaerobic conditions such as flooding.Abbreviations ADH

Concanavalin A (ConA) is a tetrameric lectin which is synthesized in the developing cotyledons of jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis L.) as a glycosylated precursor, pro-concanavalin A (pro-ConA). The processing of pro-ConA involves the excision of a small glycopeptide from the center of the pro-ConA molecule, and the ligation of the two polypeptides. In this paper, we show that pro-ConA is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi fraction of the cells, and that the processing of pro-ConA occurs in the protein bodies. Processing is a complex process and different intermediate-sized polypeptides appear at different times during cotyledon development. The ConA-related polypeptides which accumulate during seed development may be the products of alternate processing events or breakdown products of ConA, rather than precursors of ConA. When glycosylation is prevented by tunicamycin, there is very little transport of pro-ConA out of the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi system to the protein bodies; the unglycosylated pro-ConA which is transported is slowly processed. Tunicamycin does not prevent the transport of canavalin (a protein which is not glycosylated) or the transport and processing of the small amounts of glycosylated pro-ConA synthesized in the presence of the drug. This is, to our knowledge, the first demonstration that the transport of a glycoprotein in plant cells is dependent on the presence of the glycan.Abbreviations ConA

In-vivo synthesis of the white-clover lectin, trifoliin A, was examined by the incorporation of labeled amino acids into protein during heterotrophic growth of intact Trifolium repens L. seedlings. Lectin synthesis was quantified by measuring the level of labeled protein immunoprecipitated from root exudate, from the hapten (2-deoxyglucose) eluate of the roots, and from root and shoot homogenates. The presence of labeled trifoliin A was confirmed by non-denaturing and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, followed by fluorography and comparison with trifoliin A standards. In-vivo-labeled trifoliin A was detected in seedling root homogenate 2 h after the addition of labeled amino acids and on the root surface by 8 h. Incorporation of labeled amino acids into protein and trifoliin A was greatest with 2-d-old seedlings and was greater when the plants were grown continuously in the dark than when they were exposed to 14 h light daily. Significantly more labeled lectin accumulated on the root surface of seedlings grown with 1.5 mM KNO3 than of seedlings grown either without N or with 15.0 mM KNO3. The labeled lectin from the root surface in all nitrate treatments and from the rootexudate samples of seedlings grown N-free and with 1.5 mM KNO3 was fully able to bind to Rhizobium trifolii. In contrast, only 2% of the immunoprecipitable protein found in the root exudate of seedlings grown with 15.0 mM KNO3 was able to bind to the bacteria. Thus, excess nitrate does not repress the synthesis of trifoliin A in the root, but does affect the distribution and activity of this newly synthesized lectin in a way which reduces its ability to interact with R. trifolii. By using Western blot analysis, much more total trifoliin A is detected in the homogenates of shoots than roots. However, greater than 80% of the total labeled protein and 85–90% of the total labeled lectin were found in the root homogenates of 2-d-old dark-grown seedlings incubated for 5 h with labeled amino acids. In addition, Western blot analysis indicated that the shoot homogenate contained smaller-molecular-weight peptides which reacted with the specific anti-trifoliin A antibody. These studies indicate that stored trifoliin A in the seed is degraded in the shoots during seedling development, while newly synthesized trifoliin A in the roots is excreted to the root surface and external environment.Abbreviations IgG

In order to identify the domain within Photosystem II complexes that functions in the evolution of oxygen, we performed limited proteolysis with lysylendopeptidase of the core complex of Photosystem II which had been depleted of the extrinsic 33-kDa protein (Mn-stabilizing protein). The cleavage sites were estimated from the amino-terminal sequences of the degradation fragments, their apparent molecular masses and amino-acid compositions. Under certain conditions, the D2 protein was cleaved at Lys13; and a chlorophyll a-binding protein, CP 47, was cleaved at Lys227 and Lys389. Another chlorophyll a-binding protein, CP 43, was degraded more rapidly than CP 47. The oxygen-evolving activity and the capacity for rebinding of the 33-kDa protein to the core complex of Photosystem II decreased in parallel, with kinetics very similar to those of the cleavage of CP 47 at Lys389. These observations strongly suggest that the hydrophilic domain around Lys389 of CP 47, which are located on the lumenal side, is important in the binding of the 33-kDa protein and in maintaining the oxygen-evolving activity of the Photosystem II complex.Abbreviations CP 47 and CP 43-

An acid protease was purified from the mycelial form of Mucor rouxii by a method which involved salt and acid precipitation, gel filtration and anion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 16,000 Da. Its optimum pH was 4.0, maximal activity was obtained at 50°C, and it was inactivated at 70°C. It was not affected by leupeptin or N -p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK) but diazoacetyl-DL-norleucine methyl ester (DNME) in the presence of Cu2+ and more noticeably pepstatin A, strongly inhibited the activity. This acid protease did not activate zymogenic chitin synthetase from the fungus, but brought about its inactivation even at low concentrations and after short periods of incubation time.Abbreviations TLCK

Diazomethyl ketone and chloromethyl ketone analogs of thyrotropin releasing hormones have been synthesized and studied for their inhibitory effects on thyrotropin releasing hormone-induced release of radioactive 125I-labelled hormones from the thyroid gland of eight-week old male Long-Evans rats. When Long-Evans rats were pretreated with thyrotropin releasing hormone diazomethyl ketone (TRH-DMK) or the chloromethyl ketone derivative (TRH-CMK), a dose-related inhibition of thyrotropin releasing hormone-induced 125I release was observed which could be partially reversed by thyrotropin stimulating hormone (TSH). The diazomethyl ketone was a more effective inhibitor than the chloromethyl ketone. These compounds may act as an active-site directed antagonists whose effects are unique to the hypothalamo-pituitary-thyroid system. 相似文献

The susceptibility of proteins in the myelin membrane to proteases was studied. Lyophilized rat brain myelin suspended in water was subjected to controlled proteolytic digestion with pure trypsin (N-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone treated, 5 units/mg of myelin), and proteins remaining in the pellet were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Under these conditions, large basic protein (LBP) was completely hydrolyzed in 5-10 min, proteolipid proteins remained largely intact until 60 min, whereas Wolfgram protein (WP) was progressively degraded from 10 min onward with the simultaneous appearance of a new protein band with a molecular weight of 35K. A similar pattern was obtained on treatment with chymotrypsin or subtilisin. The 35K protein band was shown to be derived from WP by its immunological cross-reactivity with WP antibodies. Western blot analysis showed that 35K protein is the only major breakdown product of WP under these conditions. Treatment with higher concentrations of trypsin (greater than 20 units/mg of myelin) resulted in the degradation of all myelin proteins. Essentially all the 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (CNP) activity was observed in the myelin pellet after controlled or drastic digestion with trypsin. It is concluded that the major fragment of WP (35K) is located in the hydrophobic milieu of the bilayer, relatively inaccessible to trypsin, whereas a portion (20K) of the WP is exposed to the cytoplasmic side (major dense line), like LBP, and that peptide fragments (less than 14K) that remained in the myelin membrane lipid bilayer after trypsin digestion could exhibit CNP activity. 相似文献

To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying susceptibility of legumes to the root pathogen Aphanomyces euteiches (oomycota), comparative proteomic studies have been carried out. In a first approach, we have analysed two Medicago truncatula lines of the French CORE collection (F83.005-5 (R2002) and F83.005-9 (R2002)), which showed either increased or decreased
susceptibility to A. euteiches as compared to the widely adopted line A17. Several proteins were identified to be differentially induced after pathogen
challenge in the two M. truncatula accessions with altered disease susceptibility, whereof proteins with increased abundances in the more resistant line F83.005-9
could be involved in mechanisms that lead to an improved disease resistance. Among these proteins, we identified two proteasome
alpha subunits, which might be involved in defense response. To broaden our studies on A. euteiches-tolerance of M. truncatula, we investigated two other phenomena that lead to an either increased A. euteiches-resistance or to an enhanced susceptibility. The topic of an enhanced plant resistance to A. euteiches was studied in plants showing a bioprotective effect of a pre-established arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis. Evaluation
of root fresh weights and pathogen spreading in the root system clearly indicate that mycorrhizal plants show increased A. euteiches-resistance as compared to non-mycorrhizal plants. Proteome analyses revealed the induction of similar protein patterns as
in the M. truncatula accessions with comparatively high resistance level to A. euteiches. In a third approach, increased A. euteiches susceptibility was effected by exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) application prior to root infection. Evaluation of the abundance
levels of a group of pathogenesis related class 10 (PR10)-like proteins, which were previously identified to be regulated
after A. euteiches infection, revealed a correlation between the abundance levels of these proteins and the A. euteiches infection level or severity.

Zymogen/enzyme discrimination using peptide chloromethyl ketones 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Glutamylglycinylarginyl chloromethyl ketone, tyrosylglycinylarginyl chloromethyl ketone, and phenylalanylprolylarginyl chloromethyl ketone have been labeled at their amino termini using fluorescein, rhodamine-X, lissamine-rhodamine, pyrene, and the 1,5-, 2,5-, and 2,6-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl moieties. These peptidyl chloromethyl ketones have also been modified by incorporation of biotin and epsilon-amino caproyl biotin. The ability of these various chloromethyl ketones to be incorporated into a collection of zymogen-enzyme pairs has been evaluated using a variety of coagulation and fibrinolytic proteins. All labeled chloromethyl ketones were efficiently incorporated into the proteases tested, with the exception of urokinase which was refractory to inhibition by phenylalanylprolylarginyl chloromethyl ketone derivatives. No modification of any zymogen species was observed even under conditions designed to detect minimal reactivity. When enzymes were modified using chloromethyl ketones labeled with epsilon-amino caproyl biotin, the modified proteins readily reacted with avidin under a variety of different conditions. The observed reactivity with avidin was used in enzyme "blotting" following electrophoretic resolution of polypeptide chains and to remove active enzyme present in enzyme-zymogen mixtures. These reagents have been used to evaluate the potential for active site expression by the single-chain human factor VII molecule. Studies conducted with tissue factor, phospholipids, and calcium using factor X as substrate demonstrate that no activity can be obtained without initial activation of either factor X to factor Xa or factor VII to factor VIIa by an external source. We thus conclude that factor VII is a true zymogen, inert in the blood clotting process prior to its cleavage to factor VIIa. 相似文献

Protease inhibitors affecting the activity of the proteasome were reported to induce programmed cell death (apoptosis) in some mammalian cell lines. Proteasome activity can be suppressed by specific peptide derivatives and by N‐tosyl‐lysine‐chloromethyl‐ketone (TLCK) and N‐tosyl‐phenylalanine‐chloromethyl‐ketone (TPCK), which affect the trypsine‐ and chymotrypsine‐like activities of the proteasome, respectively. Particularly TLCK and TPCK caused necrotic cell death in the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. As a control, the effects of these protease inhibitors on the survival of human WISH cells were also studied. Bleaching of the Chlamydomonas cells after addition of TLCK or TPCK indicated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) were involved in this process. Indeed, increased levels of ROS were detected in Chlamydomonas cells treated with TLCK or TPCK. Furthermore, cell death induced by these protease inhibitors was accelerated by illumination and prevented or slowed down by scavengers of ROS. 相似文献

Nα-p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK) stimulates lipid synthesis in locust fat body in vitro, and is able to reverse the inhibitory effects of AKH-I on lipid synthesis. Effective stimulatory concentrations of TLCK were in the range of 0.2–1.0 mM. Similar stimulatory effects were also achieved with phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (PheCK) and leucine chloromethyl ketone (LeuCK), but not with tosyl-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK), dansyl-glu-gly-arg-CK, chloroacetone, chloroacetic acid, chloroacetamide, chloroacetaldehyde, chloroacetyl-L-leucine or acetylated or fluorescamine-labelled TLCK, PheCK, and LeuCK. The level of stimulation caused by TLCK was dependent on incubation time, so that after a 5-h preincubation of fat body tissue with TLCK the stimulated rate was severalfold higher than the control. TLCK also increased the rate of uptake of trehalose and uridine, but not glucose, deoxyglucose or glycine. Increasing concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the incubation medium caused a reduction in the rate of TLCK-stimulated acetate uptake, such that levels of uptake were no higher with 1% BSA than in the controls. A range of more specific protease and kinase inhibitors was tested, but none caused stimulation; thus the mode of action of TLCK on the stimulation of acetate uptake has yet to be identified. Elucidation of the mode of action of TLCK may facilitate the development of novel compounds for insect pest control. Arch. Insect Biochem. Physiol. 39:9–17, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

In poliovirus-infected HeLa-S3 cells, the protease inhibitors tolylsulfonyl-phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone and iodoacetamide cause an accumulation of large precursor proteins, and they block viral RNA synthesis most probably via these products. Viral RNA polymerase activity can, however, be extracted by detergent containing buffer (Tris/Nonidet P-40, deoxycholate) from the inhibited cells. Only cytoplasmic extracts from infected cells treated with tolylsulfonyl-phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone or iodoacetamide contain a protein which inhibits the in vitro polymerase reaction. 相似文献

Phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone covalently attached to porous glass beads was synthesized to serve as a solid-phase active site directed inhibitor of chymotrypsin-like proteolytic enzymes. The solid-phase reagent inhibited 20 nmol of bovine chymotrypsin per gram of glass and covalently bound 30 nmol of protein per gram of glass. Sepharose-bound lysine chloromethyl ketones were synthesized to serve as inhibitors of trypsin-like enzymes. Sepharose-MethionylLysyl chloromethyl ketone inactivated and bound about 6.8 nmol of enzyme per ml of settled gel. In a preliminary experiment, a cyanogen bromide cleavage of the methionine residues showed that it should be possible to release all peptides but the peptide containing the active-site histidine. The immobilized trypsin was also reduced, carboxymethylated and digested with chymotrypsin. The potential of the solid-phase approach is in the isolation of a specific serine proteinase and in the sequence determination of residues surrounding the active-site histidine. 相似文献

The changes in soluble proteins associated with adventitious root formation in hypocotyls of radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) were studied using one- and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Protein content decreased during the first day after root excision, and kept decreasing till the end of the time course under non-rooting conditions, i.e., on medium without growth regulators, with indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) + kinetin, or with kinetic alone. During adventitious root initiation in response to IBA, however, the protein content began to increase from day 1 to its maximum at day 7, coinciding with the early stage of root initiation. A comparative analysis of protein changes by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed 16 proteins that were probably associated with root initiation and development. 相似文献
