A study of subcellular acid phosphatase distribution in mammalian tissues shows that isozymes with specific functions are compartmentalized in the cells. The enzyme may be generalized into two types: type A and type B. They are shown by several means to be distinct entities. Type A is confined to the cytoplasm and is inhibited by Cu2+, HCHO, and the coupling agents (for enzyme staining) fast blue RR salt and fast Garnet GBC salt (newly discovered inhibitors), but is insensitive to fluoride and L-(+)-tartrate. Type B is localized in the organelles, presumably lysosomes, in both soluble form and membrane-bound form, with inhibitor sensitivity exactly opposite to that of type A enzyme. Types A and B consist of different sets of isozymes, with sensitivities to inhibitors resembling those observed with the crude extracts of subcellular fractions. Acid phosphatase that exhibits a phosphoryl transfer property was identified as type A enzyme. Type A enzyme has a slightly higher optimal pH and is inhibited by alloxan, whereas for type B, the addition of alloxan broadens the optimal pH to a higher range and elevates the activity of pH 7.4 from negligible to about 30-40% of that obtained under optimal conditions. The alloxan-mediated elevation of type B enzyme activity to this level at the physiological pH may be of considerable significance. Type B enzyme has a high affinity for metabolic intermediates and nucleotides, while type A has an extremely low affinity for these substrates. Cytoplasmic acid phosphatase (type A) is a significant enzyme population and its activity is not related to the lysosome density in the cells. Type A enzyme in the cytoplasm is thus shown to be an entity distinctly different from type B enzyme in the lysosomes. These findings suggest that the physiological functions of type A acid phosphatase, such as metabolic regulatory processes, merit further studies because of the phosphoryl transfer activity and cytoplasmic localization of the enzyme. 相似文献

Abstract: The generation of angiotensin I from the artificial renin substrate tetradecapeptide by proteolytic enzymes in rat brain tissue was studied. The involvement of endopeptidase activity in the enzymatical cleavage of the renin substrate was inferred from the simultaneous accumulation of both angiotensin I and the complementary tetrapeptide Leu-Val-Tyr-Ser on incubation of tetradecapeptide with rat brain tissue. This endopeptidase activity was active over a pH range of 3.5–7.5. In contrast, cathepsin D released angiotensin I from tetradecapeptide only at acidic pH. The angiotensin I accumulation on incubation of tetradecapeptide with brain endopeptidase activity was only partly inhibited in the presence of an excess of the carboxyl protease inhibitor N -acetyl pepstatin. Further, the brain endopeptidase activity displayed a subcellular localization different from that of acid protease activity. It is concluded that angiotensin I can be generated in the brain by soluble endopeptidases, which are distinct from cathepsin D. 相似文献

1. The development, localization and heterogeneity of acid phosphatase and a Zn(2+)-activated acid phosphatase in cellular fractions of developing chick liver were studied. 2. Acid phosphatase is distributed abundantly in the particulate and soluble fractions. The soluble fraction is rich in Zn(2+)-activated acid phosphatase, which attains its peak activity at about 15 days of incubation. 3. The particulate acid phosphatase activity is inhibited by fluoride but not by sodium l(+)-tartrate or cysteine. On the other hand, the soluble Zn(2+)-activated acid phosphatase activity is inhibited by sodium l(+)-tartrate and cysteine but not by fluoride. 4. The pH optimum of these two enzymes is similar at about 5.6. 5. The soluble Zn(2+)-activated acid phosphatase activity appears to be thermally stabilized by the treatment with Triton X-100 or bovine serum albumin. 相似文献

Arylsulphatase and acid phosphatase activity associated with developing and ripe spermatozoa of the musselMytilus edulis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Arylsulphatase and acid phosphatase activity were demonstrated cytochemically in spermatozoa of the marine musselMytilus edulis. Reaction product resulting from arylsulphatase activity was measured using an integrating microdensitometer and found to increase with incubation time and to be variable according to the pH of the incubation medium. Two peaks in activity, at pH 4.5 and 6.0 were evident for some experimental protocols suggesting the possibility of two isoenzymes; however, studies on the ultrastructural localization of the enzyme showed no difference between sites of activity for the two pH values. Ultrastructural localization of arylsulphatase showed activity associated with the Golgi body of developing spermatids and in particular within the proacrosomal vesicles but limited to the periphery of the acrosomal vesicle which is formed with the fusion of the proacrosomal vesicles. In spawned spermatozoa arylsulphatase activity was localized in association with the axial rod and subacrosomal material; activity also occurred along the outer acrosomal membrane and within the acrosomal vesicle and also associated with the acrosomal process following the acrosome reaction. Sulphate groups were demonstrated cytochemically within the vitelline coat of oocytes in the mantle tissue. These findings suggest that arylsulphatase could be one of the lysins previously demonstrated inM. edulis spermatozoa. Acid phosphatase activity was demonstrated in spawned spermatozoa around the nuclear envelope and along the outer acrosomal mambrane. 相似文献

The ultrastructural histochemical localization of acid phosphatase in salivary glands of third instar larvae of Drosophila melanogaster has been studied. Using Gomori's lead phosphate method for acid phosphatase detection, the optimal incubation time in the reaction medium was determined to be 30 min. When glands having wild-type acid phosphatase activity are incubated for this time, deposition of the final reaction product is observed in essentially every lysosome and artifactual staining is minimal. 相似文献

The effect of medium pH on the activity of cultured human osteoblasts was investigated in this study. Osteoblasts derived from explants of human trabecular bone were grown to confluence and subcultured. The first-pass cells were incubated in Hepes-buffered media at initial pHs adjusted from 7.0 to 7.8. Osteoblast function was evaluated by measuring lactate production, alkaline phosphatase activity, proline hydroxylation, DNA content, and thymidine incorporation. Changes in medium pH were determined from media pHs recorded at the beginning and end of the final 48 h incubation period. As medium pH increased through pH 7.6, collagen synthesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and thymidine incorporation increased. DNA content increased from pH 7.0 to 7.2, plateaued from pH 7.2 to 7.6, and increased again from pH 7.6 to 7.8. The changes in the medium pH were greatest at pHs 7.0 and 7.8, modest at pHs 7.4 and 7.6, and did not change at 7.2, suggesting that the pHs are migrating towards pH 7.2. Lactate production increased at pH 7.0 but remained constant from 7.2 to 7.8. These results suggest that in the pH range from 7.0–7.6 the activity of human osteoblasts increases with increasing pH, that this increase in activity does not require an increase in glycolytic activity, and that pH 7.2 may be the optimal pH for these cells.

Lysosomes in Tetrahymena pyriformis. I. Some properties and lysosomal localization of acid hydrolases 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
In homogenates of Tetrahymena pyriformis, five hydrolases — phosphatase, ribonuclease, deoxyribonuclease, proteinase, amylase — with acid pH optima were found. Over 75% of their activity is sedimentable with a centrifugal force of 250,000 g. min. Only 17% of the acid phosphatase and ribonuclease is active when assayed in the presence of 0.25 M sucrose at 0°. Exposure to a lowered osmotic pressure, freezing and thawing, and incubation at temperatures over 0° result in activation of the latent phosphatase and ribonuclease. After isopycnic centrifugation in a sucrose density gradient the hydrolases show a broad distribution which differs greatly from those of enzymes associated with mitochondria (succinate dehydrogenase) or with peroxisomes (catalase). The results are interpreted as evidence that the five acid hydrolases studied are localized in lysosomes which represent a distinct population of subcellular particles in Tetrahymena. 相似文献

Spatial regulation of the tumor suppressor PTEN is exerted through alternative plasma membrane, cytoplasmic, and nuclear subcellular locations. The N-terminal region of PTEN is important for the control of PTEN subcellular localization and function. It contains both an active nuclear localization signal (NLS) and an overlapping PIP2-binding motif (PBM) involved in plasma membrane targeting. We report a comprehensive mutational and functional analysis of the PTEN N-terminus, including a panel of tumor-related mutations at this region. Nuclear/cytoplasmic partitioning in mammalian cells and PIP3 phosphatase assays in reconstituted S. cerevisiae defined categories of PTEN N-terminal mutations with distinct PIP3 phosphatase and nuclear accumulation properties. Noticeably, most tumor-related mutations that lost PIP3 phosphatase activity also displayed impaired nuclear localization. Cell proliferation and soft-agar colony formation analysis in mammalian cells of mutations with distinctive nuclear accumulation and catalytic activity patterns suggested a contribution of both properties to PTEN tumor suppressor activity. Our functional dissection of the PTEN N-terminus provides the basis for a systematic analysis of tumor-related and experimentally engineered PTEN mutations. 相似文献

The different forms of acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) in rat liver homogenates, lysosomal, mitochondrial, microsomal fractions and cytosol were studied with isoelectric focusing. Evidence is presented that isoelectric focusing of acid phosphatase in subcellular fractions shows individual changes and time related patterns. Mild autolysis shifted all enzyme activity peaks of isoelectric focusing patterns to the one at pH 7.04. 相似文献

Summary The excretion of an acid phosphatase by Rhodotorula glutinis is related to the pH of the medium. During growth, the phosphatase excretion into the medium at a constant pH of 4.5 was 5 times higher than that observed at variable pH. After cultivation at a constant pH of 4.5 or at variable pH, cells were incubated at various pH values between pH 2 and 7. During this second incubation acid phosphatase release occured at pH 4.5 to 6.5 only. There was no release at pH 3.0; but when resting cells incubated at this pH were placed in a buffer solution at pH 5.5 a high activity was released. Extensive washing did not eliminate residual intrinsic acid phosphatase activity. These two types of acid phosphatase were phosphomonoesterases with an identical specificity for different substrates. 相似文献

Phosphatase activities against beta-glycerophosphate, I-naphthyl phosphate and naphthol AS-TR phosphate were investigated, at acid and aldaline pH levels, using unfixed and fixed cryostat sections of suckling rat jejunum. The use of 10 mm EDTA and 10 mm NaF as inhibitors indicated that alkaline phosphate is predominantly located in the microvillous region of the adsorptive cells, while acid phosphatase is located in small particles distributed between the brush borders and the nuclei of these cells. Alkaline phosphatase activity was found to interfere with the localization of acid phosphatase unless EDTA was included in the incubation medium. A modified Gomori medium, containing 10 mm EDTA and additional lead nitrate, is described. Latency experiemtns using this medium, with unfixed sections, indicated the lysosomal nature of particulate acid phosphatase. The discussion stresses the importance of including an aldaline phosphatase inhibitor in incubation media designed to localize extralysosomal acid phosphatase activity. 相似文献

Acid phosphatase (optimum pH at 5.2) purified from maize scutellum both in a state of dormancy and during the first 24 hours of seed germination has a M, of ca 65000, contains 6% neutral sugar, maintains its catalytic activity after succinylation of 52 free amino groups per molecule and does not show the apparent movement of optimum pH from 5.4 to 6.7 in the presence of 4 mM fluoride. Kinetic data showed Michaelian behaviour for the enzymatic hydrolysis of PNP-P and an apparent number of Pi bound per molecule equal to one. Our results also suggest that the increased acid phosphatase activity in maize scutellum as a function of seed germination could be the result of modifications in the enzyme molecule. 相似文献

Plasma membrane from fusing embryonic muscle cells were assayed for phospholipase A activity to determine if this enzyme plays a role in cell fusion. The membranes were assayed under a variety of conditions with phosphatidylcholine as the substrate and no phospholipase A activity was found. The plasma membranes did contain a phosphatidic acid phosphatase which was optimally active in the presence of Triton X-100 and glycerol. The enzyme activity was constant from pH 5.2 to 7.0, and did not require divalent cations. Over 97% of the phosphatidic acid phosphatase activity was in the particulate fraction. The subcellular distribution of the phosphatidic acid phosphatase was the same as the distributions of the plasma membrane markers, (Na+ + k+)-ATPase and the acetylcholine receptor, which indicates that this phosphatase is located exclusively in the plasma membranes. There was no detectable difference in the phosphatidic acid phosphatase activities of plasma membranes from fusing and non-fusing cells. 相似文献

The tumor suppressor gene PTEN is a phosphoinositide phosphatase that is inactivated by deletion and/or mutation in diverse human tumors. Wild-type PTEN is expressed both in the cytoplasm and nucleus in normal cells, with a preferential nuclear localization in differentiated or resting cells. To elucidate the relationship between PTEN's subcellular localization and its biologic activities, we constructed different PTEN mutants that targeted PTEN protein into different subcellular compartments. Our data show that the subcellular localization patterns of a PTEN (deltaPDZB) mutant versus a G129R phosphatase mutant were indistinguishable from those of wild-type PTEN. In contrast, the Myr-PTEN mutant demonstrated an enhanced association with the cell membrane. We found that nuclear PTEN alone is capable of suppressing anchorage-independent growth and facilitating G1 arrest in U251MG cells without inhibiting Akt activity. Nuclear compartment-specific PTEN-induced growth suppression is dependent on possessing a functional lipid phosphatase domain. In addition, the down-regulation of p70S6K could be mediated, at least in part, through activation of AMP-activated protein kinase in an Akt-independent fashion. Introduction of a constitutively active mutant of Akt, Akt-DD, only partially rescues nuclear PTEN-mediated growth suppression. Our collective results provide the first direct evidence that PTEN can contribute to G1 growth arrest through an Akt-independent signaling pathway. 相似文献

Phosphomonoesterase activity was determined for a 115,000g pellet and soluble fractions resulting from a subcellular fractioning of a homogenate of larval Boophilus microplus. Both fractions showed maximum phosphatase activity at pH 5.5 and 10. Acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) activity was found to be greatest in the soluble fraction. When the reaction rate was plotted against homogenate concentration, the soluble acid phosphatase deviated from the linear relationship. For both fractions different thermostability patterns were obtained, inactlvation beginning for the alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) at 45–55 C. When the effect of substrate concentration on activity was studied, deviations from the typical hyperbolic behavior were observed. Homogenization of larvae with 5 mm EDTA buffer failed to yield a low-speed pellet with high alkaline phosphatase activity, as it is expected if absorptive structures sediment. Moreover, total alkaline phosphatase activity recovered by this method is significantly lower than activity recovered when homogenization is carried out without EDTA. Alternately, homogenization with 10 mM Tris buffer and 0.25 M sucrose gave 27,000g and 115,000g fractions with high phosphatase activity when fractioned by centrifugation. Alkaline treatment of the 115,000g fraction with 10 mM Tris buffer, pH 7.8, failed to separate endoplasmic reticulum contaminants without loss of phosphatase activity. When the 115,000g fraction was centrifuged in a sucrose density gradient, two activity peaks, coincident for both acid and alkaline phosphatases, were obtained. Antigenic analysis showed the existence of similar antigenic determinants in both peaks “immunologically” presented in different ways. 相似文献

The subcellular localization of high and low molecular weight acid phosphatases in chicken liver was studied. The high molecular weight acid phosphatase is mainly associated with the particulate fraction, particularly with the mitochondrial-lysosomal fraction, whereas the low molecular weight form seems to be a soluble cytoplasmic enzyme. Biochemical properties including optimal pH, molecular weight determination and the effect of some modifier substances indicate that mitochondria-lysosomes and microsomes contain the same high molecular weight acid phosphatase form. 相似文献

In a whole cell assay system with p-nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate, strains of Pseudomonas pseudomallei showed a two-peak pattern in pH activity curve of acid phosphatase, suggesting the presence of two enzyme components different in pH optimum (4.2 and 5.2). The component of 5.2 pH optimum was detected in the outer membrane fraction and the activity was resistant to heating at 70 C for 30 min. The other component of 4.2 pH optimum was heat-labile. No substantial difference was observed in the enzymatic activity between R and S type colonies. 相似文献

Glutaraldehyde prefixation causes a considerable inactivation of the acid phosphatase of yeast protoplasts in dependence on the duration of aldehyde influence. Lead ions necessary for ultracytochemical demonstration effect a still stronger inhibition of enzymatic activity. Prefixation, however, protects the enzyme from further inhibition by lead. At pH 4.4 in intact cells acid phosphatase activities are mainly localized in the periplasmic space and in vesicles fused with the plasma membrane. The cell wall and cytoplasm usually remain free of reaction products. On the cell surface activities are found in form of globular lead deposits. At pH 5.2 and 6.3 the periplasmic activity appears decreased compared to that at lower pH values and the intracellular activity is increased. The plasma membrane of protoplasts is completely free of precipitates. The intracellular activity sites of protoplasts (cisternae of endoplasmic reticulum and/or Golgi-like system, small vesicles, central vacuole, nuclear envelope) are the same as for intact cells. The occurrence of at least two forms of acid phosphatase in S. cerevisiae id deduced. 相似文献

Most of the available histochemical methods and techniques (azodye, metal salt and indigogenic methods, cryostat, free-floating and lyophilized section techniques) and different modifications of these methods (different substrate concentrations, pH, temperature, incubation time e.g.) were applied to study the distribution of acid phosphatase (AcPB = after Barka and Anderson; AcPG = after Gomori), beta-glucuronidase (beta-Glu), aryl sulfatase (AS), beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG), acid 5'-nucleotidase (a5-Nucl), non-specific esterase (NE) and alkaline phosphatase (AlP) in the kidneys of rats of both sexes. The optimal conditions for the demonstration of these enzymes were established. As most important proved: the incubation of free-floating sections cut from "standard"-fixed (2 h in formol-calcium continued for another 18-22 h in the same fixative plus 0.88 M sucrose at 4 degrees C) kidney slices - only for AcPB and NE material fixed after Holt had to be used; the incubation for AlP and NE at 4 degrees C; final pH of the incubation medium for AcPB 5.5, AcPG 5.0 and NE 6.5; the use of Fast Garnet GBC Salt as coupler in the NE azo-dye reaction. Sex differences and for the female rats an increased activity during oestrus were established for all hydrolases studied. In particular the following results were obtained: AcPB, a5-Nucl and A1P are more intensive in male and AcPG in female S1 segments of the juxtamedullary nephrons in relation to the nephrons of the other parts of the cortex. In the medullary rays the NE and the a5-Nucl show a higher activity in the S2 segments of female rats demonstrate a more intensive activity for NAG and NE. This is true for AcPG and A1P in male rats. In the inner medulla a stronger beta-Glu activity in male rats and a stronger NAG activity in female rats is observed. The AcPB activity of the cortical distal tubules is higher in male rats. 相似文献

With a view to the study of the subcellular localization of nucleases, methods ensuring the homogenates. The ribonuclease activity of rat liver is due to the three enzymes with different pH optimun. For acid ribonuclease (pH optimun 5.3), it is possible to avoid interference from the other ribonucleases by performing the incubation at pH 5. Neutral ribonuclease (pH optimum 7.6) is differentiated by relying on its sensitivity to the natural inhibitor from the supernatant of liver homogenate. Comparison of activities before and after pretreatment at 50 degrees C in acid medium permits the specific measurement of alkaline ribonuclease (pH optimum 8.8). The optimal conditions for the determination in liver homogenates of two deoxyribonucleases and of an enzyme acting on polyriboadenylate are also described. The activity of these various nucleases is compared and some of their properties are investigated. 相似文献
