The phase transition temperature () of dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid multilamellar liposomes is depressed 10°C by the inhalation anesthetic methoxyflurane at a concentration of 100 mmol/mol lipid. Application of 100 atm of helium pressure to pure phosphatidic acid liposomes increased only 1.5°C. However, application of 100 atm helium pressure to dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid lipsomes containing 100 mmol methoxyflurane/mol lipid almost completely antagonized the effect of the anesthetic. A nonlinear pressure effect is observed. In a previous study, a concentration of 60 mmol methoxyflurane/mol dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine depressed only 1.5°C, exhibiting a linear pressure effect. The completely different behavior in the charged membrane is best explained by extrusion of the anesthetic from the lipid phase. 相似文献

Short, mild treatments of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with aqueous from methanol to caused an inhibition of calcium uptake and an enhancement of ATPase activity. The treatments increased both calcium-dependent (extra) ATPase activity and calcium-independent (basic) ATPase activity of vesicles. The apparent initial reaction rate of ATPase of vesicles was about twice that of control vesicles. With increasing number () of carbon atoms of the , the maximum increment of ATPase activity increased, and both the alcohol concentration () required to inhibit calcium uptake by 50% and the alcohol concentration () required to enhance ATPase activity by 50% of the maximum increment of ATPase activity decreased as follows. The ratio, to , was constant for all values. The apparent free energy of binding of the methylene groups of to sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was evaluated (?796 cal/mole) and compared with data from the partition of in octanol and water (?670 cal/mole). The effects of on membrane vesicles are discussed on the basis of these data. 相似文献

(1) The polymorphic phase behaviour of aqueous dispersions of various synthetic phosphatidylethanolamines, both singly and in mixtures, has been investigated by 31P-NMR. (2) PE remains in the lamellar phase up to 90°C. PE exhibits a lamellar to hexagonal (HII) transition between 60°C and 63°C. For PE, the lamellar to hexagonal (HII) transition occurs between 7 and 12°C, whereas for PE, the hexagonal (HII) phase is the preferred structure above ?15°C. (3) Mixtures of PE and PE exhibit near-ideal miscibility behaviour. For mixtures of PE and PE there is evidence of fluid-solid immiscibility at temperatures below the gel-liquid crystalline transition temperature of the PE component. Mixtures of PE and PE exhibit complex phase behaviour involving limited fluid-solid immiscibility at low temperatures and formation of a phase allowing isotropic motional averaging at higher temperatures. (4) 31P-NMR provides a graphic method for investigating the miscibility properties of mixed PE systems. 相似文献

In 1976 (Horton, A.W., Butts, C.K. and Schuff, A.R. (1976) Colloid Interface Sci. 5, 159–168) we assayed pristance (2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane) in a model interfacial system that has given excellent correlation with cocarcinogenic activity among , as tested in cycloalkane diluents. It was predicted that this branched-chain derivative of the diterpenes would have higher activity than , one of the most cocarcinogenic of the in such diluents. Pristane was compared with and two other for their promoting activities in cyclohexane for C3H male mice after a single application of 7,12-dimethylbenz. The branched-chain alkane proved to be more active. 20% in cyclohexane was inactive, which correlated with its effects in this diluent in the physical assay system. The promoting activity of 75% in cyclohexane, predicted by the physical assay, was confirmed by tests on mice. The combined by-products of the synthesis of tetracosane, including C12 alkanes and alkenes, C19 and C20 alkylbenzenes, and C24 alkenes, proved to be a very active promoter. However, a mixture in cyclohexane of purified tetracosane with this composite of potential impurities was inactive. From the alkanes behavior in physical systems involving vatious membrane phospholipids and steroids, it is hypothesized that the primary step in their biological activity is a chain-chain interaction with membrane lipids that alters the properties of liquid-crystalline phases at aqueous interfaces. Resulting changes in the microfluidity of the lipid phase and the lateral mobility of critical hormone receptors and enzyme systems, such as the nucleotidyl cyclases, would perturb control systems that maintain the normal behavior of the initiated cell. Thus, its progression to a proliferating neoplasm may be favored. 相似文献

The effects of inorganic cations, , saccharose and 2H2O on the electrophoretic mobility and ζ-potential of membrane vesicles from nerve myelin were measured and the results compared with the corresponding effects of the same reagents on the transition voltage, , of the nerve axon membrane. Different cation concentrations and 2H2O affect both potentials, the ζ-potential and , in a parallel way. Saccharose and , however, shift but leave the electrophoretic mobility of the myelin vesicles unchanged. These results suggest that shifts are not necessarily linked to changes in the membrane surface charge density but may also be caused by an interaction between the reagent and non-polar groups of the membrane interior. 相似文献

The dielectric dispersion in the MHz range of the zwitterionic dipolar phosphocholine head groups has been measured from 0–70°C for various mixtures of (DPPC) and cholesterol. The abrupt change in the derived relaxation frequency observed for pure DPPC at the gel-to-liquid crystalline phase transition at 42°C reduces to a more gradual increase of frequency with temperature as the cholesterol content is increased. In general the presence of cholesterol increases the DPPC head group mobility due to its spacing effect. Below 42°C no sudden changes in are found at 20 or 33 mol% cholesterol, where phase boundaries have been suggested from other methods. Above 42°C, however, a decrease in at cholesterol contents up to 20–30 mol% is found. This is thought to be partly due to an additional restricting effect of the cholesterol on the number of hydrocarbon chain conformations and consequently on the area occupied by the DPPC molecules. 相似文献

Infinite cis uptake of cyclic AMP into red blood cell ghosts has been measured. The is calculated from two different integrated rate equations that are applicable when the substrate concentration is unsufficient to cause volume changes. Values of 0.69 mM and 0.66 mM are obtained for the infinite cis at 30°C using these procedures. These values are only slightly higher than that predicted from zero trans net flux experiments.Lowering the temperature reduces from 0.69 mM at 30°C to 0.478 mM at 20°C, 0.108 mM at 10°C and 0.072 mM at 4°C (). The for activation of influx permeability of 10?5 M cyclic AMP is 1.55. 相似文献

Adenosine triphosphate-dependent glutathione transport was characterized using inside-out vesicles made from human erythrocytes. Kinetic analysis of the glutathione disulfide (GSSG) transport showed a biphasic Line-weaver-Burk plot as a function of GSSG concentration suggesting the operation of two different processes. One phase had a high affinity for GSSG and a low transport velocity. Most active at acidic pH and at 25°C, this transport activity was easily lost during the storage of vesicles at 4°C. The for Mg-ATP was 0.63 mM; guanosine triphosphate (GTP) substituted for ATP gave a 340% stimulation of transport activity. Neither dithiothreitol nor thiol reagents affected this transport process. The other phase had a low affinity for GSSG and a high transport velocity. Most active at pH 7.2 and 37°C, this transport activity was stable during storage of vesicles at 4°C for several days. The for Mg-ATP was 1.25 mM; GTP substituted with no change in activity. Dithiothreitol increased the V but did not alter the , and thiol reagents inhibited the transport. These findings suggest that there are two independent transfer processes for GSSG in human erythrocytes. 相似文献

The effect of cold exposure caused by shearing on serum thyroid hormone (TH) concentrations in sheep kept at an ambient temperature of 8.5°C was studied. While the deep body temperature fell to the lowest level 4 h after shearing the concentration of triiodothyronine (T3) increased to a peak value at that time. Thyroxine (T4) and metabolically inactive reverse triiodothyronine (rT3) levels reached their peak value after 24 h. The ratio reached a maximum at about 4 h and and ratios rose to maximum values about 24 h after shearing. This sequence of events suggest a biphasic response to cold—an immediate secretion of TH from the thyroid gland, followed by adaptive alteration in T3 and rT3 generation in the extrathyroidal tissues. 相似文献

2-(Methylamino)pyridine reacts with RuCl2(CO)3 to give a carbamoyl complex, [)Cl(CO)2], which yields with pyridine (py) and acetylacetone (Hacac), respectively, [)Cl(CO)2(py)] and [)(CO)2(acac)]. These complexes are characterized spectroscopically. The amino group of the ligand is carbonylated and the resulted carbamoyl ligand is chelating through a pyridine ring-N and a carbamoyl-C atom. 2-Aminopyridine and 2-aminopyrimidine react similarly with RuCl2(CO)3 to give the corresponding carbamoyl complexes. 相似文献

The addition of cholate to the microsomes at 37.5°C resulted in a striking decrease in the apparent substrate dissociation constant () and its temperature dependency. The microsomal membranes depleted of 80% of the lipids preserved the temperature dependency of the and exhibited breaks in the Van't Hoff plot at the characteristic temperature of the lipids phase transition. The results indicate that the cytochrome is considerably restrained from expressing its maximum substrate binding potential at physiological temperature. In addition, the results indicate that the majority of the lipids apparently do not play a significant role in imposing constraint on the substratecytochrome binding reaction and in the temperature dependency of the . 相似文献

Respiration (O), ammonium (NH4), phosphate (PO4), total nitrogen (NT) and phosphorus (PT) excretions were measured on mixed zooplankton during 3-, 6-, 9-, 12-, 21-, and 24-h incubation periods at 20–23 C. The excretion rates of PO4, NT. and PT decrease during a 21-h period, while rates of respiration and excretion of NH{IN4} are constant. The percentage of inorganic nitrogen excreted increases regularly from 3 h (30–40% of total nitrogen) to 21 h (70–80%) and it could be either due to a bacterial activity which was measured or to a decrease with time of organic nitrogen excreted because of starvation. , , , and ratios increase during the first 9 h of incubation; the percentage of inorganic phosphorus excreted is higher at the very beginning and then remains constant from 6 to 24 h. and ratios are constant during a 24-h term, which makes them useful metabolic indexes. 相似文献

We have studied the solid to liquid-crystalline phase transition of sonicated vesicles of dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine. The transition was studied by both fluorescence polarization of perylene embedded in the vesicles, and by the efflux rate of trapped 22Na+.Fluorescence polarization generally decreases with temperature, showing an inflection in the region 32–42°C with a mid-point of approximately 37.5 °C. On the other hand, the perylene fluorescence intensity increases abruptly in this region. To explain this result, we have proposed that, for where is the transition temperature, perylene is excluded from the hydrocarbon interior of the membranes, whereas, this probe may be accommodated in the membrane interior to a large extent.The self-diffusion rates of 22Na+ through dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol vesicles exhibit a complex dependence on temperature. There is an initial large increase in diffusion rates (approximately 100-fold) between 30 and 38 °C, followed by a decrease (approximately 4-fold) between 38 and 48 °C. A monotonic increase is then observed at temperatures higher than 48 °C. The local maximum of 22Na+ self-diffusion rates at approximately 38 °C coincides with the mid-point of phase transition as detected by changes in fluorescence polarization of perylene with the same vesicles. Vesicles composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine show the same general behavior in terms of 22Na+ self-diffusion rates at different temperatures, except that the local maximum occurs at approximately 42 °C.The temperature dependence of the permeability and the appearance of a local maximum at the phase transition region could be explained in terms of a domain structure within the plane of the membranes. This explanation is based on the possibility that boundary regions between liquid and solid domains would exhibit relatively high permeability to 22Na+.Mixed vesicles composed of equimolar amounts of dipalmitoyl phospholipids and cholesterol show no abrupt changes in the temperature dependence of either perylene fluorescence polarization or 22Na+ diffusion rate measurements. This is taken to indicate the absence of agross phase transition in the presence of cholesterol. 相似文献

, the initial membrane enzyme in the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan, requires a lipid microenvironment for function. was reversibly intercalated into membranes to perturb the hydrophobic interactions in this microenvironment in order to define further the role of lipid. In the concentration range for maximal stimulation of enzymic activity (0.12–0.18 M), causes a 40% decrease in the fluorescence emission of the dansylated product, undecaprenyl . Since no change in emission maximum occurs below 22°C in the presence of 0.12 M , it is concluded that intercalation of this alkanol causes an increase in fluidity. Above 22°C this concentration of causes both a decrease in the fluorescence emission and a red shift in the emission maximum. It is concluded that a polarity change as well as fluidity change occurs above 22°C. also causes a significant change in the phase transition experienced by the dansylated lipid product. Thus, it is possible with , e.g. , to perturb lipid-translocase interactions resulting in an increase in fluidity in the microenvironment of the enzyme. This change in fluidity correlates with a stimulation of enzymic activity. 相似文献

The cytochrome reductase system solubilized from microsomes exhibits monophasic reduction kinetics over the temperature range 15 ° to ?25 °C in aqueous/ethylene glycol co-solvent, whereas in intact microsomes, the process becomes increasingly heterogeneous below 0 °C, reflecting heterogeneities in membrane structure observable as distributions in reaction rates and activation energies. 相似文献

Stationary current voltage characteristics and the action potential of single myelinated nerve fibres were measured to examine the effect of (methanol to octanol) on the electrophysiological function of the axon membrane. K+-depolarized membranes show alkanol-dependent shifts of , the membrane transition voltage, whereas in veratridine-depolarized membranes such are not observed. In the latter case, reduce both the stationary Na+ current and the conductivity step between the high- and low-ohmic conductivity state of the membrane. Action potential amplitude, however, is less affected by the alkanols as is the stationary Na+ current. The results are compared with the alkanol-dependent changes of the thermotropic phase transition in phospholipid bilayers. 相似文献

Half hemocyanin is shown to undergo a unique change at the Cu(II)?Cu(I) active site with temperature, exhibiting class II mixed valent properties at low temperature (The appearance of an intense near IR intervalence-transfer transition and a delocalized EPR spectrum). This requires a Cu(II)NNNCu(I) bridging geometry. The effects of CO coordination to half , combined with the presence of a low energy charge transfer transition, demonstrate that azide is also bridging at room temperature. Finally, half is found to be capable of coordination of a second at the copper(II) site. 相似文献
