Salivary glands synthesize and secrete an unusual family of proline-rich proteins (PRPs) that can be broadly divided into acidic and basic PRPs. We studied the tissue-specific expression of these proteins in rabbits, using antibodies to rabbit acidic and basic PRPs as well as antibodies and cDNA probes to human PRPs. By immunoblotting, in vitro translation, and Northern blotting, basic PRPs could be readily detected in the parotid gland but were absent in other salivary glands. In contrast, synthesis in vitro of acidic PRPs was detected in parotid, sublingual, and submandibular glands. Ultrastructural localization with immunogold showed heavy labeling with antibodies to acidic PRPs of secretory granules of parotid acinar cells and sublingual serous demilune cells. Less intense labeling occurred in the seromucous acinar cells of the submandibular gland. With antibodies to basic PRPs, the labeling of the parotid gland was similar to that observed with antibodies to acidic PRPs, but there was only weak labeling of granules of a few sublingual demilune cells, and no labeling of the submandibular gland. These results demonstrate a variable pattern of distribution of acidic and basic PRPs in rabbit salivary glands. These animals are therefore well suited for study of differential tissue expression of PRPs. 相似文献

To elucidate the localization of post-translational modifications of different classes of human salivary proteins and peptides (acidic and basic proline-rich proteins (PRPs), Histatins, Statherin, P-B peptide, and "S type" Cystatins) a comparative reversed phase HPLC-ESI-MS analysis on intact proteins of enriched granule preparations from parotid and submandibular glands as well as parotid, submandibular/sublingual (Sm/Sl), and whole saliva was performed. The main results of this study indicate the following. (i) Phosphorylation of all salivary peptides, sulfation of Histatin 1, proteolytic cleavages of acidic and precursor basic PRPs occur before granule storage. (ii) In agreement with previous studies, basic PRPs are secreted by the parotid gland only, whereas all isoforms of acidic PRPs (aPRPs) are secreted by both parotid and Sm/Sl glands. (iii) Phosphorylation levels of aPRPs, Histatin 1, and Statherin are higher in the parotid gland, whereas the extent of cleavage of aPRP is higher in Sm/Sl glands. (iv) O-Sulfation of tyrosines of Histatin 1 is a post-translational modification specific for the submandibular gland. (v) The concentration of Histatin 3, Histatin 5, and Histatin 6, but not Histatin 1, is higher in parotid saliva. (vi) Histatin 3 is submitted to the first proteolytic cleavage (generating Histatins 6 and 5) during granule maturation, and it occurs to the same relative extent in both glands. (vii) The proteolytic cleavages of Histatin 5 and 6, generating a cascade of Histatin 3 fragments, take place after granule secretion and are more extensive in parotid secretion. (viii) Basic PRPs are cleaved in the oral cavity by unknown peptidases, generating various small proline-rich peptides. (ix) C-terminal removal from Statherin is more extensive in parotid saliva. (x) P-B peptide is secreted by both glands, and its relative quantity is higher in submandibular/sublingual secretion. (xi) In agreement with previous studies, S type Cystatins are mainly the product of Sm/Sl glands. 相似文献

Human glandular salivary secretions contain several acidic proline-rich phosphoproteins (PRPs). These proteins have important biological functions related to providing a protective environment for the teeth, and appear to possess other activities associated with modulation of adhesion of bacteria to oral surfaces. These functions and activities depend on the primary structures of the PRPs. Previously determined amino acid sequences of two 150-residue molecules, PRP-1 and PRP-2, and two related 106-residue proteins, PRP-3 and PRP-4, indicated that residue 4 was Asn in PRP-1 and PRP-3, and Asp in PRP-2 and PRP-4, and position 50 was Asn in all four proteins. Recent data from cDNA sequence studies and further structural studies, however, showed that the previously proposed sequences cannot be completely correct. The present work has shown that the protein previously designated as PRP-1 actually consisted of two positional isomers, PIF-s, which has Asn and Asp at positions 4 and 50 respectively, and authentic PRP-1, which has the reverse arrangement. The same isomerism is present in the smaller proteins, PIF-f and PRP-3. Since the isomeric pairs have identical compositions and charges, their presence was not previously detected. Also, by using a more highly purified preparation, it has been found that position 50 in PRP-2 and PRP-4 is Asp, rather than Asn previously reported. These new findings for the six PRPs define their complete primary structures, which are now consistent with those proposed for PRP-1 and PIF-s from cDNA data, and are also consistent with the chromatographic and electrophoretic behaviours of the six PRPs and their derived peptides. These corrected structures are important for understanding the biological functions and activities of these unusual proteins. 相似文献

Exocrine cells have an essential function of sorting secreted proteins into the correct secretory pathway. A clear understanding of sorting in salivary glands would contribute to the correct targeting of therapeutic transgenes. The present work investigated whether there is a change in the relative proportions of basic proline-rich protein (PRP) and acidic PRPs in secretory granules in response to chronic isoproterenol treatment, and whether this alters the sorting of endogenous cargo proteins. Immunoblot analysis of secretory granules from rat parotids found a large increase of basic PRP over acidic PRPs in response to chronic isoproterenol treatment. Pulse chase experiments demonstrated that isoproterenol also decreased regulated secretion of newly synthesized secretory proteins, including PRPs, amylase and parotid secretory protein. This decreased efficiency of the apical regulated pathway may be mediated by alkalization of the secretory granules since it was reversed by treatment with mild acid. We also investigated changes in secretion through the basolateral (endocrine) pathways. A significant increase in parotid secretory protein and salivary amylase was detected in sera of isoproterenol-treated animals, suggesting increased routing of the regulated secretory proteins to the basolateral pathway. These studies demonstrate that shifts of endogenous proteins can modulate regulated secretion and sorting of cargo proteins. amylase; parotid secretory protein; polarized secretion 相似文献

The presence of phosphopeptides in whole saliva (saliva expectorated from the mouth) was demonstrated and their origin was evaluated. Whole saliva contained much larger numbers of small phosphopeptides than are found in the glandular secretions. Most of these originated from the acidic proline-rich proteins (PRPs) in the major salivary glands and were formed, after secretion into the oral cavity, as a result of rapid degradation by proteolytic enzymes from extraglandular sources contained in sediment from whole saliva. Some peptides may have been formed by cleavage of basic PRPs, but other phosphoproteins apparently contributed little to the observed phosphopeptides. Most of the enzymes that produced phosphopeptides are serine proteinases. The gel-electrophoretic band patterns of the phosphopeptides obtained from 26 individuals of various acidic-PRP phenotypes were remarkably similar, demonstrating that the enzymes responsible were generally present in the population surveyed and that similar cleavages occur regardless of the nature of the acidic PRPs. Many of these peptides were N-terminal proteolytic cleavage products of acidic PRPs. The N-terminal phosphorylated region of acidic PRPs contains various biological activities, such as inhibition of hydroxyapatite formation, calcium binding and binding to hydroxyapatite, the major mineral of teeth. The demonstration of these phosphopeptides in the saliva that is in contact with the oral surface may therefore be of biological importance. 相似文献

In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the study of saliva. This bodily fluid contains a vast number of protein species, the salivary peptidome, of low molecular weight, comprising approximately 40–50% of the total secreted proteins, in addition to peptides generated by proteolysis of proteins of different sources. Owing to the presence of other components, in particular mucins and enzymes, some distinctive requirements and precautions related to sample collection, time of analysis, sample preservation and treatment are necessary for the successful analysis of salivary peptides. More than 2000 peptides compose the salivary peptidome, from which only 400–600 are directly derived from salivary glands, suggesting an important qualitative peptide contribution of other sources, namely of epithelial cells. Proteolysis events are the main supply for the peptidome and considerable efforts have been made to identify the resulting fragments, the cleavage sites and the involved proteases. The salivary proteins more prone to proteolysis are proline-rich proteins (PRPs; acidic PRPs and basic PRPs), statherin, histatins and P-B peptide. Gln–Gly cleavages are largely associated with PRP classes, while Tyr–Gly cleavages are related to histatin 1 and to the P-B peptide. The interest in saliva has been growing for clinical purposes, as it is an alternative sample to other traditional bodily fluids, such as blood or urine, since it involves an easy and noninvasive collection. In fact, apart from its usefulness as a source of information for the prognosis, diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases, such as Sjögren’s syndrome, gum disease, tooth decay or oral cancer, saliva might also be seen as a potential tool to the diagnosis of systemic diseases. Owing to the enormous amount of previously discovered salivary peptide species, in this article, we attempt to harmonize the nomenclature, following International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry recommendations. 相似文献

The human salivary acidic proline-rich proteins (aPRPs) complex was investigated by different chromatographic and mass spectrometric approaches and the main aPRPs, namely PRP-1, PRP-2 and PIF-s (15,515 amu), Db-s (17,632 amu) and Pa (15,462 amu) proteins, were detected. All these isoforms are phosphorylated at Ser-8 and Ser-22 and have a pyroglutamic moiety at the N-terminus. Apart from Pa, all the other aPRPs undergo a proteolytic cleavage at Arg-106 residue (Arg-127 in Db-s protein), that generates the small PC peptide (4371 amu) and PRP-3, PRP-4, PIF-f (11,162 amu) and Db-f (13,280 amu) proteins, all of which were detected. With regard to the Pa protein, the main form detected was the dimeric derivative (Pa 2-mer, 30,922 amu) originated by a disulfide bond involving Cys-103 residue. Besides these known isoforms, several previously undetected aPRP derivatives were found (in minor amounts): (i) the triphosphorylated derivatives of PRP-1/PRP-2/PIF-s and Db-s, showing the additional phosphate group at Ser-17; (ii) the mono-phosphorylated forms at either Ser-22 or Ser-8 of PRP-1/PRP-2/PIF-s, PRP-3/PRP-4/PIF-f, Db-s and Db-f; (iii) a nonphosphorylated form of PRP-3/PRP-4/PIF-f; (iv) the triphosphorylated and diphosphorylated forms of Pa 2-mer. Moreover, minor quantities of PRP-3/PRP-4/PIF-f lacking the C-terminal Arg (11,006 amu), and of Pa 2-mer lacking the C-terminal Gln (30,793 amu) were found. By this approach the different phenotypes of PRH1 locus in 59 different subjects were characterized. 相似文献

The secretions of the salivary parotid and submandibular-sublingual (SMSL) glands constitute the main part of whole human saliva (WS) in which proline-rich proteins (PRPs) and mucins represent dominant groups. Although proteome analysis had been performed on WS, no identification of PRPs or mucins by 2-DE and MS was achieved in WS and no comprehensive analysis of both glandular secretions is available so far. The aim of this study was to compare the protein map of WS to parotid and SMSL secretions for the display of PRPs and mucins. WS and glandular secretions were subjected to 2-DE and spots were analyzed by MALDI-MS. New components identified in WS were cyclophilin-B and prolyl-4-hydroxylase. Also acidic and basic PRPs as well as the proline-rich glycoprotein (PRG) could now be mapped in WS. Acidic PRPs were found equally in parotid and SMSL secretions, whereas basic PRPs and PRG were found primarily in parotid secretion. Salivary mucin MUC7 was identified in SMSL secretion. Thus, the more abundant proteins of WS can be explained mainly by mixed contributions of parotid and SMSL secretions with only few components remaining that may be derived from local sources in the oral cavity. 相似文献

Our recent research interests have focused on a group of unusual proteins and glycoproteins high in proline content, or the so-called proline-rich proteins (PRPs). The PRPs are tissue-specific expressions of salivary gland multigene families. Normally PRPs are not detected or are present in very low amounts in rat, mouse and hamster salivary glands, but these unusual proteins are dramatically induced by treatment with the catecholamine isoproterenol. The structures and organizations of several PRP mRNAs and PRP genes have been determined. The amino acid sequences of all PRPs show 4 distinct regions, namely, a signal peptide, a transition region, a repeat region and a carboxyl-terminal region. Glycoproteins induced by isoproterenol treatment may be N-glycosylated or O-glycosylated. The N-glycosylated glycoprotein GP-158 from rat submandibular glands has a 12 amino acid glycopeptide which repeats possibly 49 times. Proline-rich proteins of the parotid glands of rats and mice are also greatly induced by dietary tannins. The apparent unique occurrence of PRPs in saliva suggests that one biological role is to neutralize the detrimental effects of dietary tannins and other polyphenols. The upstream regions of the mouse and hamster PRP genes contain cyclic AMP-regulated sequences as demonstrated by deletions and transient transfections. The PRP multigene family members of mouse are all located on chromosome 8. 相似文献

The aim of this paper was to elucidate the mechanisms behind salivary lubrication with special emphasis on the lubricity of three key components of the pellicle, viz human acidic proline-rich protein 1 (PRP-1), human statherin and bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM). The lubricating properties of the proteins have been assessed by means of colloidal probe atomic force microscopy, and are discussed in relation to their adsorption behaviour. To various extents, the proteins investigated all showed a lubricating effect when adsorbed to silica surfaces. For comparable concentrations, PRP-1 was found to have a more pronounced lubricating effect than BSM, which in turn showed a higher lubricity than statherin. The relative lubricity is in accordance with previously reported relative adsorbed amounts of the three proteins, within the investigated concentration interval. It is concluded that PRP-1 has the highest lubricating capacity as a pure fraction among the preparations investigated, and that the lubricating effect of PRP-1 as a pure fraction is notably large as compared to the lubricity of human whole saliva. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to investigate the adsorption of PRP-1, PRP-3 and statherin to solid surfaces in terms of dependence on concentration, the presence of electrolyte and surface wettability. Time resolved in situ ellipsometry was used to determine the adsorbed amounts and adsorption rates of pure PRP-1, PRP-3 and statherin onto pure (hydrophilic) and methylated (hydrophobized) silica surfaces. The initial film build-up was fast and plateaus were reached within 10 min at all concentrations for both types of surfaces and all proteins. The observed adsorption and calculated diffusion rates of PRP-1, PRP-3 and statherin, respectively, indicated that the initial adsorption was mass transport controlled at low concentrations. At hydrophobic surfaces, isotherm shapes and adsorbed amounts were similar for PRP-1 and PRP-3, while statherin adsorbed to a higher extent. At hydrophilic surfaces only PRP-1 adsorbed substantially, while for PRP-3 and statherin adsorbed amounts were low. The presence of Ca 2+ ions in the phosphate buffer solution increased the adsorption of statherin and PRP-3 on hydrophobic surfaces, while PRP-1 was unaffected. On hydrophilic surfaces, all three proteins adsorbed in higher amounts in NaCl, compared to CaCl 2 at similar ionic strength. It is concluded that acidic PRPs (PRP-1 and PRP-3) and statherin readily form films on a variety of materials and solution conditions, showing that their functions may be fulfilled under a wide range of conditions. 相似文献

Human salivary acidic proline-rich proteins were analyzed by electrospray-ion trap mass spectrometry and by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. All acidic-PRP isoforms share a common N-terminal region, which contains a pyroglutamic acid residue at the N-terminus, and two phosphorylation sites on Ser 8 and 22. At the same time, HPLC-MS spectra revealed isoforms of PRP-1 and PRP-3 having a different number of phosphoserine residues, namely, a mono-phosphorylated form of PRP-1 and PRP-3 and a tri-phosphorylated form of PRP-1. The analysis of the masses of tryptic digests suggested that the third phosphate residue should be located on Ser 17. Another protein with a mass of 30,923 amu was detected along the HPLC pattern and MS data of its tryptic digest suggested that it corresponds to the dimer of Pa, the isoform of PRP-1 with a substitution Arg-Cys at 103 position. Finally, structural identification is pending for another post-translational modification of acidic-PRP that provides an increase of 111-114 amu. 相似文献

Basic proline-rich proteins of murine parotid glands. Induction of mRNA by isoprenaline and post-secretion processing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Five major basic polypeptides with characteristics typical of proline-rich proteins, accumulated in parotid glands after long term isoprenaline treatment of Balb C mice. They were studied by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and designated B1 degree, B2' degrees, B2 degrees, B3 degrees and B4 degrees on the basis of pI-dependent mobility. They were not observed in the glands of normal mice and were precipitated when glands were homogenized in 10% trichloroacetic acid unlike the three isoprenaline-induced proline-rich proteins of murine parotid glands reported previously. Isoprenaline induced six proline-rich in vitro translation products which were absent normally. Four of these species had pI-dependent mobilities almost identical to B1 degree, B2 degrees, B3 degrees and B4 degrees, indicating not only precursor/product relationships, but also that isoprenaline induced the accumulation of the proteins by regulating the mRNA. Identical salivary counterparts of the basic glandular proline-rich proteins were not detected whereas a series of smaller and more basic isoprenaline-induced polypeptides were observed in saliva (major speices B1s-B4s). The glandular proline-rich proteins were secreted from parotid tissue in vitro and the data indicate that proline-rich proteins are synthesised as precursors and processed into salivary form in the parotid glands after secretion. The relationships between the B-type in vitro translation products, parotid gland precursors and salivary proteins were also confirmed immunologically. 相似文献

Summary Rabbit polyclonal antibodies against isoproterenol-induced mouse proline-rich proteins (PRPs) were used to localize PRPs in the parotid salivary glands of normal adult BALB/c mice. The antibodies recognized both acidic-type and basic-type PRPs. Immunoblotting experiments revealed that the glands contained an acidic-type and a basic-type PRP. Parotid gland tissue was fixed with Karnosky's fixative and embedded in Lowicryl resin at low temperature. PRPs were localized at the electron microscope level using an indirect post-embedding staining technique with protein A-gold. The secretion granules of the acinar cells were strongly labelled. Pre-absorption of the antibody with purified acidic-type and basic-type PRPs indicated that the basic-type PRP is mainly located at the periphery of the granules but that the acidic-type PRP is more evenly distributed within the granules. Pre-absorption of the antibody with -amylase did not affect the staining pattern, suggesting minimal cross-reactivity. PRPs were also detected within the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus of acinar cells, within the granules of the proacinar cells and in the lumena of the ducts, but not within the intercalated or striated duct cell granules. 相似文献

Astringency has been defined as a group of sensations involving dryness, tightening, and shrinking of the oral surface. It has been accepted that astringency is due to the tannin-induced interaction and/or precipitation of the salivary proline-rich proteins (PRPs) in the oral cavity, as a result of the ingestion of food products rich in tannins, for example, red wine. The sensory evaluation of astringency is difficult, and the existence of fast and reliable methods to its study in vitro is scarce. So, in this work, the astringency of red wine supplemented with oligomeric procyanidins (condensed tannins), and the salivary proteins (SP) involved in its development were evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of human saliva after its interaction with red wine and by sensorial evaluation. The results show that for low concentration of tannins, the decrease of acidic PRPs and statherin is correlated with astringency intensity, with these families having a high relative complexation and precipitation toward condensed tannins comparatively to the other SP. However, for higher concentrations of tannins, the relative astringency between wines seems to correlate's to the glycosylated PRPs changes. This work shows for the first time that the several families of SP could be involved in different stages of the astringency development. 相似文献

Prolonged isoproterenol treatment of rats is known to cause hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the parotid glands. Our results show that a dramatic increase in the synthesis or accumulation in the parotid glands of a series of proteins rich in proline also occurs with isoproterenol treatment. After 10 days of treatment (5 mg of isoproterenol/day) these proline-rich proteins (PRPs) comprise more than 50% of the total soluble proteins in parotid gland homogenates. The PRPs are rapidly labeled in vivo by a single intraperitoneal injection of [3H]proline with maximum incorporation occurring at about 3. More than 90% of the [3h]proline found in parotid gland homogenates is incorporated into PRPs with less than 1% of the radioactivity in alpha-amylase. Tritium incorporated into PRPs was isolated as [3H]proline after acid hydrolysis. One acidic and six basic 3H-labeled PRPs were isolated from the 100,000 x g supernatant fraction of parotid gland homogenates by Sephadex G-100 and ion exchange chromatography. The six basic proteins accounted for about 90% of the total PRPs isolated. 相似文献

Protease activities in the secreted saliva, salivary glands and midgut of the green mirid, Creontiades dilutus, were investigated. The saliva and salivary glands had more protease activity than the midgut, but no differences in protease activity levels were detected between male and female mirids, adult mirids and third instar nymphs, or between fed and starved mirids.In the salivary glands, chymotrypsin-like serine proteases predominated, as characterised by inhibitor specificity, basic pH optima, and hydrolysis of N-benzoyl-L-tyrosine p-nitroanilide and N-succinyl-ala-ala-pro-leu p-nitroanilide. The pH optimum of midgut extracts was acidic (pH 4), implying that acidic proteases predominate. However, protease activity was inhibited substantially by both aprotinin and E-64, suggesting the presence of both serine and cysteine proteases in the midgut of the green mirid. 相似文献
