Structure-guided design was employed in a search for potent and selective inhibitors of mammalian secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s). Using the X-ray structures of human groups IIA and X sPLA(2)s (hGIIA and hGX) as templates, homology structural models were made for the other human and mouse sPLA(2)s (hGIB, mGIB, mGIIA, mGIIC, hGIID, mGIID, hGIIE, mGIIE, hGIIF, mGIIF, hGV, mGV, and mGX). Me-Indoxam is a previously discovered indole analogue that binds tightly to many sPLA(2)s, and the X-ray structure of the hGX-Me-Indoxam complex was determined at a resolution of 2.0 A. Modeling suggests that the residues near the N(1)-substituent of Me-Indoxam vary significantly among the mammalian sPLA(2)s, and therefore a library of 83N(1)-variants was prepared by parallel synthesis. Several Me-Indoxam analogues bearing a 4-(2-oxy-ethanoic acid) side chain were potent inhibitors (IC(50) <0.05 microM) of hGIIA, mGIIA, mGIIC, hGIIE, mGIIE, hGV, and mGV, while they displayed intermediate potency (0.05-5 microM) against hGIB, mGIB, hGX, and mGX, and poorly inhibited (>5 microM) hGIID, mGIID, hGIIF, and mGIIF. Me-Indoxam analogues bearing a 5-(4-oxy-butanoic acid) side chain were generally less potent inhibitors. Although no compounds were found to be highly specific for a single human or mouse sPLA(2), combinations of Me-Indoxam analogues were discovered that could be used to distinguish the action of various sPLA(2)s in cellular events. For example, Me-Indoxam and compound 5 are approximately 5-fold more potent on hGIIA than on hGV, and compound 21 is 10-fold more potent on hGV versus hGIIA. 相似文献

Secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) are enzymes detected in serum and biological fluids of patients with various inflammatory, autoimmune and allergic disorders. Different isoforms of sPLA(2)s are expressed and released by human inflammatory cells, such as neutrophils, eosinophils, T cells, monocytes, macrophages and mast cells. sPLA(2)s generate arachidonic acid and lysophospholipids thus contributing to the production of bioactive lipid mediators in inflammatory cells. However, sPLA(2)s also activate human inflammatory cells by mechanisms unrelated to their enzymatic activity. Several human and non-human sPLA(2)s induce degranulation of mast cells, neutrophils and eosinophils and activate exocytosis in macrophages. In addition some, but not all, sPLA(2) isoforms promote cytokine and chemokine production from macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes and endothelial cells. These effects are primarily mediated by binding of sPLA(2)s to specific membrane targets (heparan sulfate proteoglycans, M-type, N-type or mannose receptors) expressed on effector cells. Thus, sPLA(2)s may play an important role in the initiation and amplification of inflammatory reactions by at least two mechanisms: production of lipid mediators and direct activation of inflammatory cells. Selective inhibitors of sPLA(2)-enzymatic activity and specific antagonists of sPLA(2) receptors are current being tested for pharmacological treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. 相似文献

Expression of the full set of human and mouse groups I, II, V, X, and XII secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) in Escherichia coli and insect cells has provided pure recombinant enzymes for detailed comparative interfacial kinetic and binding studies. The set of mammalian sPLA(2)s display dramatically different sensitivity to dithiothreitol. The specific activity for the hydrolysis of vesicles of differing phospholipid composition by these enzymes varies by up to 4 orders of magnitude, and yet all enzymes display similar catalytic site specificity toward phospholipids with different polar head groups. Discrimination between sn-2 polyunsaturated versus saturated fatty acyl chains is <6-fold. These enzymes display apparent dissociation constants for activation by calcium in the 1-225 microm range, depending on the phospholipid substrate. Analysis of the inhibition by a set of 12 active site-directed, competitive inhibitors reveals a large variation in the potency among the mammalian sPLA(2)s, with Me-Indoxam being the most generally potent sPLA(2) inhibitor. A dramatic correlation exists between the ability of the sPLA(2)s to hydrolyze phosphatidylcholine-rich vesicles efficiently in vitro and the ability to release arachidonic acid when added exogenously to mammalian cells; the group V and X sPLA(2)s are uniquely efficient in this regard. 相似文献

Antibacterial properties of secreted phospholipases A2 (PLA2) have emerged gradually. Group (G) IIA PLA2 is the most potent among mammalian secreted (s) PLA2s against Gram-positive bacteria, but additional antibacterial compounds, e.g. the bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein, are needed to kill Gram-negative bacteria. The mechanisms of binding to the bacterial surface and the killing of bacteria by sPLA2s are based on the positive charge of the PLA2 protein and its phospholipolytic enzymatic activity, respectively. The concentration of GIIA PLA2 is highly elevated in serum of patients with bacterial sepsis, and overexpression of GIIA PLA(2) protects transgenic mice against experimental Gram-positive infection. The synthesis and secretion of GIIA PLA2 are stimulated by the cytokines TNF-alpha, IL-1 and IL-6. Secreted PLA2s may be potentially useful new endogenous antibiotics to combat infections including those caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant staphylococci and vancomysin-resistant enterococci. 相似文献

The antibacterial properties of secreted phospholipases A(2) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
There is a considerable body of evidence to support the antibacterial properties of the group IIa phospholipase A(2) as an important physiological function. This enzyme is able to act as an acute phase protein and may be part of the innate defence system of the body, acting in concert with other antibacterial proteins and peptides. The enzyme is most effective against Gram-positive bacteria whereas penetration of the lipopolysaccharide coat of Gram-negative bacteria requires bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) as an additional permeabilizing factor. The global cationic nature of this protein (pI>10.5) appears to facilitate penetration of the anionic bacterial cell wall. In addition, the considerable preference of the enzyme for anionic phospholipid interfaces provides specificity toward anionic bacterial membranes as opposed to zwitterionic eucaryotic cell membranes. 相似文献

Recombinant production and properties of binding of the full set of mouse secreted phospholipases A2 to the mouse M-type receptor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

To date, 12 secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) have been identified in the mouse species and divided into three structural collections (I/II/V/X, III, and XII). On the basis of their different molecular properties and tissue distributions, each sPLA2 is likely to exert distinct functions by acting as an enzyme or ligand for specific soluble proteins or receptors, among which the M-type receptor is the best-characterized target. Here, we present the properties of binding of the full set of mouse sPLA2s to the mouse M-type receptor. All enzymes have been produced in Escherichia coli or insect cells, and their properties of binding to the cloned and native M-type receptor have been determined. sPLA2s IB, IIA, IIE, IIF, and X are high-affinity ligands (K0.5 = 0.3-3 nM); sPLA2s IIC and V are low-affinity ligands (K0.5 = 30-75 nM), and sPLA2s IID, III, XIIA, and XIIB bind only very weakly or do not bind to the M-type receptor (K0.5 > 100 nM). Three exogenous parvoviral group XIII PLA2s and two fungal group XIV sPLA2s do not bind to the receptor. Together, these results indicate that the mouse M-type receptor is selective for only a subset of mouse sPLA2s from the group I/II/V/X structural collection. Binding of mouse sPLA2s to a recombinant soluble mouse M-type receptor leads in all cases to inhibition of enzymatic activity, and the extent of deglycosylation of the receptor decreases yet does not abolish sPLA2 binding. The physiological meaning of binding of sPLA2 to the M-type receptor is discussed on the basis of our current knowledge of sPLA2 functions. 相似文献

Ammodytoxin (Atx) is a snake venom phospholipase A2 (sPLA2s) with presynaptic toxicity, anticoagulant activity and the ability to influence cell cycle progression. These multiple physiological activities make this molecule a promising tool for studying processes influenced by the highly homologous mammalian sPLA2s-for example cell proliferation and apoptosis. Secreted PLA2s can act on cells as enzymes or as ligands for cellular receptors. To further characterize the sPLA2-binding molecules in cells we have developed a new method based on AtxC and a biotin-containing cross-linking reagent sulfo-SBED which possesses both an amine-reactive and a photo-reactive site, together with a biotin moiety that enables specific detection and affinity-based concentration. The biological activity of the AtxC derivatized by sulfo-SBED was demonstrated by biotin-tagging of calmodulin and R25, both known AtxC targets, but not of other proteins. In addition, using the new protocol we specifically labelled 14-3-3 proteins, protein disulfide isomerase and two unknown proteins of 45 and 46kDa in the mitochondrial-synaptosomal fraction of porcine cerebral cortex, none of which could be tagged by the previously used methods. The new methodology, which can be used for any sPLA2, constitutes a novel approach to discovering and purifying sPLA2-binding proteins, to studying the topology of their respective complexes and to following sPLA2s in different biological systems. 相似文献

Secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2) s) are lipolytic enzymes present in organisms ranging from prokaryotes to eukaryotes but their origin and emergence are poorly understood. We identified and compared the conserved domains of 333 sPLA(2) s and proposed a model for their evolution. The conserved domains were grouped into seven categories according to the in silico annotated conserved domain collections of 'cd00618: PLA(2) _like' and 'pfam00068: Phospholip_A2_1'. PLA(2) s containing the conserved domain cd04706 (plant-specific PLA(2) ) are present in bacteria and plants. Metazoan PLA(2) s of the group (G) I/II/V/X PLA(2) collection exclusively contain the conserved domain cd00125. GIII PLA(2) s of both vertebrates and invertebrates contain the conserved domain cd04704 (bee venom-like PLA(2) ), and mammalian GIII PLA(2) s also contain the conserved domain cd04705 (similar to human GIII PLA(2) ). The sPLA(2) s of bacteria, fungi and marine invertebrates contain the conserved domain pfam09056 (prokaryotic PLA(2) ) that is the only conserved domain identified in fungal sPLA(2) s. Pfam06951 (GXII PLA(2) ) is present in bacteria and is widely distributed in eukaryotes. All conserved domains were present across mammalian sPLA(2) s, with the exception of cd04706 and pfam09056. Notably, no sPLA(2) s were found in Archaea. Phylogenetic analysis of sPLA(2) conserved domains reveals that two main clades, the cd- and the pfam-collection, exist, and that they have evolved via gene-duplication and gene-deletion events. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that sPLA(2) s in eukaryotes shared common origins with two types of bacterial sPLA(2) s, and their persistence during evolution may be related to their role in phospholipid metabolism, which is fundamental for survival. 相似文献

Inhibitory effects of surfactant protein A on surfactant phospholipid hydrolysis by secreted phospholipases A2 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Hydrolysis of surfactant phospholipids by secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)) contributes to surfactant dysfunction in acute respiratory distress syndrome. The present study demonstrates that sPLA(2)-IIA, sPLA(2)-V, and sPLA(2)-X efficiently hydrolyze surfactant phospholipids in vitro. In contrast, sPLA(2)-IIC, -IID, -IIE, and -IIF have no effect. Since purified surfactant protein A (SP-A) has been shown to inhibit sPLA(2)-IIA activity, we investigated the in vitro effect of SP-A on the other active sPLA(2) and the consequences of sPLA(2)-IIA inhibition by SP-A on surfactant phospholipid hydrolysis. SP-A inhibits sPLA(2)-X activity, but fails to interfere with that of sPLA(2)-V. Moreover, in vitro inhibition of sPLA(2)-IIA-induces surfactant phospholipid hydrolysis correlates with the concentration of SP-A in surfactant. Intratracheal administration of sPLA(2)-IIA to mice causes hydrolysis of surfactant phosphatidylglycerol. Interestingly, such hydrolysis is significantly higher for SP-A gene-targeted mice, showing the in vivo inhibitory effect of SP-A on sPLA(2)-IIA activity. Administration of sPLA(2)-IIA also induces respiratory distress, which is more pronounced in SP-A gene-targeted mice than in wild-type mice. We conclude that SP-A inhibits sPLA(2) activity, which may play a protective role by maintaining surfactant integrity during lung injury. 相似文献

A mathematical model of the total human musculo-skeletal system is presented. The model comprises a link-mechanical and a musculo-mechanical set of ordinary first-order differential equations which describe the dynamics of the segment model and muscle model respectively. The interdependence of the two sets of equations is demonstrated. The set of musculo-mechanical equations contains the two neuromuscular control parameters motor unit recruitment and stimulation rate, and the significance of such a representation for a control-theoretical treatment of musculo-skeletal systems is discussed. Finally, after a short discussion of the successful application of the present model in the prediction of an optimal human motion, further possibilities are indicated of the use of the model for investigations into the control behaviour of musculo-skeletal systems. 相似文献

Secretory phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) are released in large amounts in the blood of patients with systemic inflammatory diseases and accumulate at sites of chronic inflammation, such as the airways of patients with bronchial asthma. Blood eosinophils or eosinophils recruited in inflammatory areas therefore can be exposed in vivo to high concentrations of sPLA(2). We have examined the effects of two structurally different sPLA(2)s (group IA and group IIA) on several functions of eosinophils isolated from normal donors and patients with hypereosinophilia. Both group IA and IIA sPLA(2) induced a concentration-dependent release of beta-glucuronidase, IL-6, and IL-8. Release of the two cytokines was associated with the accumulation of their specific mRNA. In addition, sPLA(2)s induced the surface expression of CD44 and CD69, two major activation markers of eosinophils. In contrast, none of the sPLA(2)s examined induced the production of IL-5, the de novo synthesis of leukotriene C(4) and platelet-activating factor, or the generation of superoxide anion from human eosinophils. Incubation of eosinophils with the major enzymatic products of the sPLA(2)s (arachidonic acid, lysophosphatidylcholine, or lysophosphatidic acid) did not reproduce any of the enzymes' effects. In addition, inactivation of sPLA(2) enzymatic activity by bromophenacyl bromide did not influence the release of beta-glucuronidase or of cytokines. Stimulation of eosinophils by sPLA(2)s was associated with activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2. These results indicate that sPLA(2)s selectively activate certain proinflammatory and immunoregulatory functions of human eosinophils through mechanism(s) independent from enzymatic activity and from the generation of arachidonic acid. 相似文献

Secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) form a large family of structurally related enzymes which are widespread in nature. Snake venoms are known for decades to contain a tremendous molecular diversity of sPLA(2)s which can exert a myriad of toxic and pharmacological effects. Recent studies indicate that mammalian cells also express a variety of sPLA(2)s with ten distinct members identified so far, in addition to the various other intracellular PLA(2)s. Furthermore, scanning of nucleic acid databases fueled by the different genome projects indicates that several sPLA(2)s are also present in invertebrate animals like Drosophila melanogaster as well as in plants. All of these sPLA(2)s catalyze the hydrolysis of glycerophospholipids at the sn-2 position to release free fatty acids and lysophospholipids, and thus could be important for the biosynthesis of biologically active lipid mediators. However, the recent identification of a variety of membrane and soluble proteins that bind to sPLA(2)s suggests that the sPLA(2) enzymes could also function as high affinity ligands. So far, most of the binding data have been accumulated with venom sPLA(2)s and group IB and IIA mammalian sPLA(2)s. Collectively, venom sPLA(2)s have been shown to bind to membrane and soluble mammalian proteins of the C-type lectin superfamily (M-type sPLA(2) receptor and lung surfactant proteins), to pentraxin and reticulocalbin proteins, to factor Xa and to N-type receptors. Venom sPLA(2)s also associate with three distinct types of sPLA(2) inhibitors purified from snake serum that belong to the C-type lectin superfamily, to the three-finger protein superfamily and to proteins containing leucine-rich repeats. On the other hand, mammalian group IB and IIA sPLA(2)s can bind to the M-type receptor, and group IIA sPLA(2)s can associate with lung surfactant proteins, factor Xa and proteoglycans including glypican and decorin, a mammalian protein containing a leucine-rich repeat. 相似文献

A complete set of SNAREs in yeast 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:4
Trafficking of cargo molecules through the secretory pathway relies on packaging and delivery of membrane vesicles. These vesicles, laden with cargo, carry integral membrane proteins that can determine with which target membrane the vesicle might productively fuse. The membrane fusion process is highly conserved in all eukaryotes and the central components driving membrane fusion events involved in vesicle delivery to target membranes are a set of integral membrane proteins called SNAREs. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has served as an extremely useful model for characterizing components of membrane fusion through genetics, biochemistry and bioinformatics, and it is now likely that the complete set of SNAREs is at hand. Here, we present the details from the searches for SNAREs, summarize the domain structures of the complete set, review what is known about localization of SNAREs to discrete membranes, and highlight some of the surprises that have come from the search. 相似文献

Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2's) are enzymes that hydrolyze glycerophospholipids at the sn-2 position, which leads to the production of lipid mediators of many cellular processes. These interfacial enzymes are regulated by their lipid specificity at two levels: membrane binding and substrate recognition. Different sPLA2's utilize different combinations of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions to adsorb to membrane surfaces, which results in the wide range of membrane binding behaviors observed. Here, the finite difference Poisson Boltzmann (FDPB) method is used to quantitatively analyze the contribution of electrostatic interactions to the membrane association of two highly basic group II sPLA2's: Agkistrodon piscivorus piscivorus (AppD49) sPLA2 and nonpancreatic human group IIA (hGIIA) sPLA2. The calculations predict how membrane binding is affected by ionic strength, membrane composition, substitutions of residues in the enzymes, and the presence of calcium in the active site. In addition, the results provide molecular models for the membrane-associated forms of the enzymes. Furthermore, these models account for (1) changes in orientation and protonation state of both the native and charge reversal forms of the enzymes at the membrane surface and (2) the effect of protein/vesicle aggregation, as observed for hGIIA sPLA2. Importantly, the modeling quantitatively describes the complex membrane binding behaviors of these interfacial enzymes in terms of simple physical forces and provides structural information that is difficult to obtain experimentally. The computational analysis shows that nonspecific electrostatic interactions not only play a major role in recruiting these enzymes to membrane surfaces but also orient the enzymes for productive catalysis at the membrane interface. 相似文献

Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) are molecules released in plasma and biological fluids of patients with systemic inflammatory, autoimmune and allergic diseases. These molecules exert proinflammatory effects by either enzymatic-mechanisms or through binding to surface molecules expressed on inflammatory cells. sPLA2s are released at low levels in the normal airways and tend to increase during respiratory allergies (e.g., rhinitis and bronchial asthma) as the result of local secretion. Several sPLA2 isoforms are expressed in the human lung and some of them (e.g., group IIA and group X) are released in the airways of patients with rhinitis or asthma. Mast cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of respiratory allergies and other chronic inflammatory lung diseases. Recent evidence indicates that mast cells purified from human lung express most of the sPLA2 isoforms so far described. IgE-mediated activation of these cells induce the release of sPLA2s suggesting that mast cells are a main source of extracellular sPLA2s during allergic reactions. Once released, sPLA2s may contribute to the generation of eicosanoids (e.g., PGD2 and LTC4) and to the release of preformed mediators (e.g., histamine) by an autocrine loop involving the interaction of sPLA2s with surface molecules such as heparan sulphate proteoglycans or the M-type receptor. Thus, mast cell-derived sPLA2s may play an important role in the initiation and amplification of the inflammatory reactions in patients with allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma. 相似文献

Bactericidal properties of human and murine groups I, II, V, X, and XII secreted phospholipases A(2). 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Group IIA secreted phospholipase A(2) (sPLA2) is known to display potent Gram-positive bactericidal activity in vitro and in vivo. We have analyzed the bactericidal activity of the full set of recombinant murine and human groups I, II, V, X, and XII sPLA2s on Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. The rank order potency among human sPLA2s against Gram-positive bacteria is group IIA > X > V > XII > IIE > IB, IIF (for murine sPLA2s: IIA > IID > V > IIE > IIC, X > IB, IIF), and only human group XII displays detectable bactericidal activity against the Gram-negative bacterium E. coli. These studies show that highly basic sPLA2s display potent bactericidal activity with the exception of the ability of the acidic human group X sPLA2 to kill Gram-positive bacteria. By studying the Bacillus subtilis and S. aureus bactericidal potencies of a large panel of human group IIA mutants in which basic residues were mutated to acidic residues, it was found that: 1) the overall positive charge of the sPLA2 is the dominant factor in dictating bactericidal potency; 2) basic residues on the putative membrane binding surface of the sPLA2 are modestly more important for bactericidal activity than are other basic residues; 3) relative bactericidal potency tracks well with the ability of these mutants to degrade phospholipids in the bacterial membrane; and 4) exposure of the bacterial membrane of Gram-positive bacteria by disruption of the cell wall dramatically reduces the negative effect of charge reversal mutagenesis on bactericidal potency. 相似文献
