Wheat acetyl-CoA carboxylase 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
The acetyl-CoA carboxylase present in both wheat germ and total wheat leaf protein contains ca. 220 kDa subunits. It is the major biotin-dependent carboxylase present in wheat chloroplasts. Active acetyl-CoA carboxylase purified from wheat germ is a homodimer with an apparent molecular mass of ca. 500 kDa. The enzyme from wheat germ or from wheat chloroplasts is sensitive to the herbicide haloxyfop at micromolar levels. The incorporation of 14C-acetate into fatty acids in freshly cut wheat seedling leaves provides a convenient in vivo assay for both acetyl-CoA carboxylase and haloxyfop. 相似文献

The activity of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase in preparations obtained by lysis of spheroplasts of three species of blue-green algae was found to be 1.5- to 5-fold higher at 20°C than that of RuDP carboxylase. This level of enzyme activity suggests that these algae may have the ability to fix carbon dioxide by a C4 pathway. 相似文献

Isoenzymes of vitamin-K-dependent carboxylase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Vitamin-K-dependent carboxylase was prepared from bovine liver, kidney, lung and testis and it was checked that these systems obeyed the laws of normal enzyme kinetics. Four carboxylatable substrates were obtained from different sources and the apparent Michaelis constants of the various carboxylases for these four substrates were measured. From the results thus obtained we concluded that carboxylase is a group name for a number of isoenzymes which are present in hepatic as well as in various non-hepatic tissues. 相似文献

Multiple carboxylase deficiency 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
W L Nyhan 《The International journal of biochemistry》1988,20(4):363-370
1. The multiple carboxylase deficiencies are inborn errors in the metabolism of biotin in which there is defective activity of propionyl CoA carboxylase, 3-methylcrotonyl CoA carboxylase and pyruvate carboxylase. 2. Two distinct disorders have been described. 3. In one the fundamental defect is in the enzyme holocarboxylase synthetase which catalyzes the molecular activation of the apocarboxylase proteins. 4. In the other the fundamental defect is in biotinidase which catalyzes the reutilization of biotin and may be involved in its digestion and intestinal absorption. 相似文献

The gene encoding the biotin carboxylase subunit of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase. 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
We report the molecular cloning and DNA sequence of the gene encoding the biotin carboxylase subunit of Escherichia coli acetyl-CoA carboxylase. The biotin carboxylase gene encodes a protein of 449 residues that is strikingly similar to amino-terminal segments of two biotin-dependent carboxylase proteins, yeast pyruvate carboxylase and the alpha-subunit of rat propionyl-CoA carboxylase. The deduced biotin carboxylase sequence contains a consensus ATP binding site and a cysteine-containing sequence preserved in all sequenced bicarbonate-dependent biotin carboxylases that may play a key catalytic role. The gene encoding the biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase is located upstream of the biotin carboxylase gene and the two genes are cotranscribed. As previously reported by others, the BCCP sequence encoded a protein of 16,688 molecular mass. However, this value is much smaller than that (22,500 daltons) obtained by analysis of the protein. Amino-terminal amino acid sequencing of the purified BCCP protein confirmed the deduced amino acid sequence indicating that BCCP is a protein of atypical physical properties. Northern and primer extension analyses demonstrate that BCCP and biotin carboxylase are transcribed as a single mRNA species that contains an unusually long untranslated leader preceding the BCCP gene. We have also determined the mutational alteration in a previously isolated acetyl-CoA carboxylase (fabE) mutant and show the lesion maps within the BCCP gene and results in a BCCP species defective in acceptance of biotin. Translational fusions of the carboxyl-terminal 110 or 84 (but not 76) amino acids of BCCP to beta-galactosidase resulted in biotinated beta-galactosidase molecules and production of one such fusion was shown to result in derepression of the biotin biosynthetic operon. 相似文献

Sequence homology around the biotin-binding site of human propionyl-CoA carboxylase and pyruvate carboxylase 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Biotin-dependent carboxylases require covalently bound biotin for enzymatic activity. The biotin is attached through a lysine residue, which in a number of bacterial, avian, and mammalian carboxylases, is found within the conserved sequence Ala-Met-Lys-Met. We have determined the partial nucleotide sequence of cDNA clones for human propionyl-CoA carboxylase and pyruvate carboxylase. The predicted amino acid sequence of both these proteins contains the conserved tetrapeptide 35 residues from the carboxy terminus. In addition, both proteins contain the tripeptide, Pro-Met-Pro, 26 residues toward the amino terminus from the biotin attachment site. The overall amino acid homology through this region is 43%. Similar findings have been made for the biotin-containing polypeptides of transcarboxylase of Propionibacterium shermanii and acetyl-CoA carboxylase of Escherichia coli (W. L. Maloy, B. U. Bowien, G. K. Zwolinski, K. G. Kumar, and H. G. Wood (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 11615-11622). The implications of this sequence conservation with regard to the function and evolution of biotin-dependent carboxylases is discussed. We propose that the 60 amino acids surrounding the biotin site are bounded by a proline "hinge" and the carboxy terminus has remained conserved as a result of constraints imposed by biotinylation of the enzyme. 相似文献

Plants contain multiple biotin enzymes: discovery of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, propionyl-CoA carboxylase and pyruvate carboxylase in the plant kingdom 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase is the sole biotin enzyme previously reported in plants. Western analysis with 125I-streptavidin of proteins extracted from carrot somatic embryos visualized six biotin-containing polypeptides, the relative molecular masses of which are 210,000, 140,000, 73,000, 50,000, 39,000, and 34,000. This multiplicity of the biotin-containing polypeptides can be partly explained by the discovery of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, propionyl-CoA carboxylase, and pyruvate carboxylase in extracts of somatic carrot embryos, biotin enzymes previously unknown in the plant kingdom. These biotin enzymes seem to be widely distributed in the plant kingdom. 相似文献

Insulin promotes an association between acetyl CoA carboxylase and acetyl CoA carboxylase phosphatase. The association between rat epididymal fat tissue carboxylase and the phosphatase occurs in both a tissue culture system and in vivo and is accompanied by an increase in acetyl CoA carboxylase activity. 相似文献

The polymerization of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Citrate, an allosteric activator of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, induces polymerization of an inactive protomeric form of the enzyme into an active filamentous form composed of 10-20 protomers. The light-scattering properties of the carboxylase were used to study the kinetics of its polymerization and depolymerization. From stopped flow kinetic studies, we have established that polymerization is a second order process, with a second order rate constant of 597,000 M-1 s-1. There appear to be two steps which limit polymerization of the inactive carboxylase protomer: 1) a rapid citrate-induced conformational change which is independent of enzyme concentration and leads to an active protomeric form of the enzyme (Beaty, N. B., and Lane, M. D. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 13043-13050, preceding paper) and 2) the dimerization of the active protomer, which constitutes the first step of polymerization and is enzyme concentration-dependent. Dimerization is the rate-limiting step of acetyl-CoA carboxylase polymerization. Depolymerization of fully polymerized acetyl-CoA carboxylase is caused by malonyl-CoA, ATP X Mg, and Mg2+. Both malonyl-CoA and ATP X Mg (and HCO-3) compete with citrate in the maintenance of a given state of the protomer-polymer equilibrium apparently by carboxylating the enzyme to form enzyme-biotin-CO-2 which destablizes the polymeric form. Free citrate is the species responsible for polymerizing the enzyme and Mg2+ causes depolymerization of the enzyme by lowering the concentration of free citrate. 相似文献

Cyclophilins (E.C. 5.1.2.8) are protein chaperones with peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase activity (PPIase). In the present study, we demonstrate a physical interaction among AvppiB, encoding the cytoplasmic cyclophilin from the soil nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii, and AvaccC, encoding the biotin carboxylase subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which catalyzes the committed step in long-chain fatty acid synthesis. A decrease in AvppiB PPIase activity, in the presence of AvaccC, further confirms the interaction. However, PPIase activity seems not to be essential for these interactions since a PPIase active site mutant of cyclophilin does not abolish the AvaccC binding. We further show that the presence of cyclophilin largely influences the measured ATP hydrolyzing activity of AvaccA in a way that is negatively regulated by the PPIase activity. Taken together, our data support a novel role for cyclophilin in regulating biotin carboxylase activity. 相似文献

The catalytic mechanism of the MgATP-dependent carboxylation of biotin in the biotin carboxylase domain of pyruvate carboxylase from R. etli (RePC) is common to the biotin-dependent carboxylases. The current site-directed mutagenesis study has clarified the catalytic functions of several residues proposed to be pivotal in MgATP-binding and cleavage (Glu218 and Lys245), HCO(3)(-) deprotonation (Glu305 and Arg301), and biotin enolization (Arg353). The E218A mutant was inactive for any reaction involving the BC domain and the E218Q mutant exhibited a 75-fold decrease in k(cat) for both pyruvate carboxylation and the full reverse reaction. The E305A mutant also showed a 75- and 80-fold decrease in k(cat) for both pyruvate carboxylation and the full reverse reaction, respectively. While Glu305 appears to be the active site base which deprotonates HCO(3)(-), Lys245, Glu218, and Arg301 are proposed to contribute to catalysis through substrate binding interactions. The reactions of the biotin carboxylase and carboxyl transferase domains were uncoupled in the R353M-catalyzed reactions, indicating that Arg353 may not only facilitate the formation of the biotin enolate but also assist in coordinating catalysis between the two spatially distinct active sites. The 2.5- and 4-fold increase in k(cat) for the full reverse reaction with the R353K and R353M mutants, respectively, suggests that mutation of Arg353 allows carboxybiotin increased access to the biotin carboxylase domain active site. The proposed chemical mechanism is initiated by the deprotonation of HCO(3)(-) by Glu305 and concurrent nucleophilic attack on the γ-phosphate of MgATP. The trianionic carboxyphosphate intermediate formed reversibly decomposes in the active site to CO(2) and PO(4)(3-). PO(4)(3-) then acts as the base to deprotonate the tethered biotin at the N(1)-position. Stabilized by interactions between the ureido oxygen and Arg353, the biotin-enolate reacts with CO(2) to give carboxybiotin. The formation of a distinct salt bridge between Arg353 and Glu248 is proposed to aid in partially precluding carboxybiotin from reentering the biotin carboxylase active site, thus preventing its premature decarboxylation prior to the binding of a carboxyl acceptor in the carboxyl transferase domain. 相似文献

Two biotin-containing polypeptides of molecular weights 140,000 and 22,000 have been identified by gel electrophoresis in a sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured extract of cells of a thermophilic Bacillus. These polypeptides can be separated from each other by either gel filtration through Sepharose 6B or affinity chromatography on a Sepharose-avidin column. The larger polypeptide is renatured under appropriate conditions to yield enzymically active pyruvate carboxylase. Enzyme reconstitution experiments show that the smaller polypeptide is a component of acetyl CoA carboxylase. The biotin subunits of these two carboxylases are thus distinct from, and dissimilar to, each other. The demonstration that a pyruvate carboxylase-deficient mutant of the Bacillus contains the smaller, but not the larger, polypeptide corroborates this conclusion. 相似文献
