Both cytosol and membranes of human erythrocytes display protein kinase activity towards exogenous protein substrates such as casein, phosvitin andhistones. The histone kinase activity, unlike casein kinase, of both cytosol and membranes is increased by cyclic AMP. The protein kinase forms removed from the membranes with 0.7 M NaCl, phosphorylate only serine residues of both casein and histones through a mechanism cyclic AMP-independent.The protein kinase activity located in the cytosol (hemolysate) is due also to enzyme forms phosphorylating both serine and threonine residues of casein, in addition to forms phosphorylating only serine residues of casein and histones.Also the cytosol kinase forms, once partially purified by Sepharose 6B filtration, appear to be cyclic AMP-independent. 相似文献

The D-glucose transporter from human erythrocytes has been purified and reconstituted by Kasahara and Hinkle (J Biol Chem 252:7394–7390). Using a similar purification scheme, we have isolated the protein with 65% of the extracted phospholipid at a lipid-protein ratio of 14:1 by weight. The KD (0.14 μM) and extent (11 nmoles/mg protein) for binding of 3H-cytochalasin B was determined by equilibrium dialysis. Glucose was a linear competitive inhibitor of binding of cytochalasin B, with an inhibition constant of 30 mM. To further characterize the protein, samples were filtered in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) through Sepharose 6B to remove 95% of the lipid followed by filtration of Sephadex G150 to remove the remaining lipid and a contaminating amount of a minor, lower-molecular-weight protein. This preparation contains only 24% acidic and basic amino acids. The protein also contains 5% neutral sugars (of which 3% is galactose), 7% glucosamine, and 5% sialic acid. 相似文献

Mg2+-ATPase activity was identified in the cytosol of human erythrocytes. A partial purification of this activity was achieved by an initial DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography, followed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and then a second DEAE-Sephadex chromatography procedure. The enzyme appeared in the void volume of the Sephadex G-100 column and was retained on an Amicon XM100A ultrafiltration membrane. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 113 000 from SD gels. The above purification protocol yielded an enzyme with an optimal pH between 7.6 and 8.2. The enzyme activity increased linearly between 30 and 44 degrees C. It was stable for several months at -20 degrees C. Magnesium was essential for activity, but the rate attainable with Mn2+ was at least as great as that due to Mg2+. No other divalent cation was able to substitute for Mg2+ or Mn2+. Neither low nor high Ca2+ concentrations significantly affected the enzymatic activity. Substrate specificity studies showed that ATP was the preferred substrate followed by CTP (46% of the rate produced by ATP). Hydrolysis of GTP, UTP, ITP and ADP was less than 10% of the rate seen with ATP. No phosphatase, pyrophosphatase, phosphodiesterase, hexokinase, phosphofructokinase or adenylate cyclase activity could be detected in this enzyme preparation. Calmodulin, which stimulates the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of the human erythrocyte membrane, failed to enhance the Mg2+-ATPase activity. Of considerable interest, the activity of this Mg2+-ATPase was enhanced approximately 5-fold by low concentrations of mercuric ion, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and DTNB, but was much less sensitive to iodoacetamide. 相似文献

Using conventional techniques of ammonium sulfate fractionation and Sephadex gel column chromatography, insulin-degrading enzyme was partially purified from lysate of human erythrocytes. The enzymatic activity was measured by the trichloroacetic acid precipitation method. Compared to trypsin, the enzyme was highly specific for insulin. The apparent molecular weight of the enzyme was 160,000 Da, the optimum pH was the 7.4 to 7.8 range, and the Km value for insulin for the partially purified enzyme was 162 nM. Bacitracin and N-ethylmaleimide were potent inhibitors, while chloroquine, ethylenediaminetetraacetate, antipain, and soybean trypsin inhibitor failed to inhibit the activity of the enzyme. Like most nucleated cells, human erythrocytes not only have the membranal insulin receptors, but also possess the cytosolic specific insulin-degrading enzyme. Insulin internalization and degradation are shown to be due to the receptor and the enzyme acting in concert as in many nucleated cells. Anucleated erythrocytes have both these entities for possible internalization and degradation of insulin. 相似文献

A [3H]-progestin-binding macromolecule has been isolated from oocyte cytosol and characterized using binding assays, gel filtration, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and ultracentrifugal techniques. Macromolecules present in the prophase oocyte cytosol have a high affinity and specificity for the synthetic progestin R5020 and the intact oocyte will concentrate both R5020 and progesterone 20–40 fold from the medium. This may be the first published case of a cytosol steroid binding macromolecule in a cell system in which the steroid appears to act at an extranuclear level. 相似文献

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and electrofusion were applied together in a simple and highly efficient cell fusion method. PEG (8000 M(r)) was used to bring human erythrocytes into contact, and a single 4.4 kV/cm, 80 microseconds duration pulse was applied to cell suspensions. The fusion yield (FY) is PEG concentration-dependent. A maximum FY (50%) was found at about 10% PEG. Higher PEG concentrations (> 10%) suppressed FY caused by colloid osmotic shrinkage. Morphological changes, such as colloidal osmotic swelling and shrinking, and the expanding and contraction of fusion lumen, when suspension media were changed from PBS to isotonic 15% dextran solutions, was examined by microscopy. FY was found to depend on both simple osmotic and colloidal-osmotic swelling. From the swelling behavior, we propose two types of electropores: the pre-fusion sites between cell pairs, and electropores on each individual cell connecting intracellular and extracellular space. The latter type is responsible for the colloidal osmotic swelling and shrinking of cell which, together with simple osmotic swelling, is responsible for expanding the pre-fusion sites into fusion lumens. Resealing of electropores resulted in reducing FY, but the FY can be restored by simple osmotic shock. Apparently, PEG plays two opposite roles in this fusion method; one is to promote pre-pulse and post-pulse cell-cell contact, protecting pre-fusion sites, and the other suppresses FY by colloid osmotic shrinkage of cells after pulsing, especially when high PEG concentration is used. 10% PEG 8000 represents the optimal combination of these properties. 相似文献

The glucose transporter was purified from human erythrocytes (Kasahara, M. and Hinkle, P.C. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 7384–7390). The following results support the conclusion that a major protein in the purified transporter fraction, zone 4.5 is the glucose transporter (or a part of the transporter) and is different from band 3: (1) peptide maps of zone 4.5 were similar throughout the broad band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis and were different from those of band 3, (2) specific binding of cytochalasin B was found to the transporter fraction, but not to a band 3 fraction, (3) the N-terminal amino acid analysis of the transporter fraction showed a single N-terminal of lysine, whereas the band 3 fraction showed no clear N-terminal, and (4) the rabbit antibody raised against the transporter fraction formed a precipitation line with the transporter fraction, but not with the band 3 fraction. A filtration apparatus was devised for quick and accurate measurement of cytochalasin B binding, with which results comparable to those from equilibrium dialysis were obtained. 相似文献

Cytosolic protein-O-carboxylmethyltransferase was purified more than 4,000-fold in specific activity and membrane-associated protein-O-carboxylmethyltransferase carboxymethylase about 900-fold from chicken erythrocytes by use of a combination of affinity chromatography on immobilized S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 (Pharmacia), together with 3-((3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio)-1-propane-sulfonate as a detergent to solubilize the membrane-associated enzyme. The two enzymes were characterized by examining the dependence of their activity on pH and on concentration of S-adenosyl-L-methionine using fetuin as an exogenous methyl-acceptor substrate, and were found to differ somewhat. The cytosolic enzyme had a pH optimum of 6.0 with an apparent Km value of 2.1 microM for S-adenosyl-L-methionine, whereas corresponding values for the membrane-associated enzyme were 6.5 and 0.71 microM. This report deals with the biochemical differences between purified cytosolic and membrane-associated protein carboxymethylase from the same cell source. 相似文献

Cytosolic extracts of trout and turkey erythrocytes were tested for their immunoreactivity with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to retinal arrestin (S-antigen), a cytosolic protein of photoreceptor cells involved in the desensitization of rhodopsin. After adsorption or immunoaffinity chromatography of the extracts, these antibodies specifically recognized a protein having a molecular weight similar to that of retinal arrestin. Because the G-protein-mediated transduction systems, such as visual and beta-adrenergic systems, display a high degree of structural and functional homology, the presence of arrestin-like proteins in non-photosensitive cells suggests that these proteins are involved in the transduction of chemical signals, with a possible role in receptor desensitization. 相似文献

Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase is a ubiquitous human enzyme, the inherited deficiency of which leads to a specific metabolic-neurological syndrome. Native acrylamide isoelectric focusing revealed that the human enzyme consists of different numbers of isoenzymes depending on the tissue of origin. The erythrocytic enzyme has the most isoenzymes while the enzyme from cultured fibroblasts has only a single isoenzyme. The isoenzyme pattern of the erythrocytic enzyme changes on storage of the crude hemolysate at 4 C. Treatment of the stored crude hemolysate with 4.5 m urea and 0.35
mm -mercaptoethanol results in an isoenzyme pattern similar to that of the fresh crude extract. Thus the additional isoenzymes are generated on storage not by covalent modification of the enzyme but probably by binding of small molecules to the enzyme or to association of the enzyme molecules. Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase has been purified to 80% homogeneity in three steps, DEAE Sephadex chromatography, heat treatment at 85 C for 5 min, and hydroxylapatite chromatography. Denaturing two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of the erythrocytic enzyme revealed that the erythrocytic enzyme is composed of three major types of subunits (1–3) with the same molecular weight but different isoelectric points. In contrast, the fibroblast enzyme is composed of only a single type of subunit, which comigrates with subunit 1 of the erythrocytic enzyme. Since there is a single genetic locus in humans for HGPRTase (the enzyme is X linked) (Nyhan et al., 1967), the observed subunit modification of the erythrocyte enzyme appears to be the result of posttranslational modification. These findings provide a simple explanation for the observed electrophoretic properties of human HGPRTase. A patient with 0.5% of HGPRTase activity in his erythrocytes was found to have small amounts (> 0.5% but < 5% of normal) of the erythrocytic HGPRTase subunits.This work was supported by a grant from NIAMDD, National Institutes of Health, United States Public Health Service.

A unique hybrid pathway has been proposed for de novo heme biosynthesis in Plasmodium falciparum involving three different compartments of the parasite, namely mitochondrion, apicoplast and cytosol. While parasite mitochondrion and apicoplast have been shown to harbor key enzymes of the pathway, there has been no experimental evidence for the involvement of parasite cytosol in heme biosynthesis. In this study, a recombinant P. falciparum coproporphyrinogen III oxidase (rPfCPO) was produced in E. coli and confirmed to be active under aerobic conditions. rPfCPO behaved as a monomer of 61 kDa molecular mass in gel filtration analysis. Immunofluorescence studies using antibodies to rPfCPO suggested that the enzyme was present in the parasite cytosol. These results were confirmed by detection of enzyme activity only in the parasite soluble fraction. Western blot analysis with anti-rPfCPO antibodies also revealed a 58 kDa protein only in this fraction and not in the membrane fraction. The cytosolic presence of PfCPO provides evidence for a hybrid heme-biosynthetic pathway in the malarial parasite. 相似文献

The effect of various sulfur-containing amino acids on the activities of prolidase isoenzymes I and II isolated from erythrocytes
of healthy individuals, and erythrocyte lysates from a patient with prolidase deficiency was investigated. The activity of
prolidase I against glycylproline was strongly enhanced by d-methionine. l-Methionine and d,l-methionine slightly enhanced the activity at low concentration, but N-acetyl-l-methionine had no effect. d-Ethionine, l-ethionine, and d,l-ethionine also enhanced the activity of prolidase I. d,l-Homocysteine enhanced the activity at low concentration, but inhibited the activity at 50 mM. The activity of prolidase II against methionylproline was enhanced by d-methionine, d,l-methionine, and l-methionine, but N-acetyl-l-methionine had no effect. d-Ethionine and d,l-ethionine strongly enhanced the activity of prolidase II compared with l-ethionine; d,l-homocysteine weakly enhanced the activity. d,l-Homocysteine-thiolactone inhibited the activities of prolidase I and II in a concentration-dependent manner. The effect of
various sulfur-containing amino acids on prolidase activity against methionylproline in erythrocyte lysates from a patient
with prolidase deficiency was almost the same as that on prolidase II. The kinetics of the activities of prolidase I, II,
and patient prolidase were also studied. Their K
m values were changed by adding sulfur-containing amino acids, but V
max values were unchanged. 相似文献

The rate of packing of human erythrocytes in whole blood and washed ones in aqueous suspension was investigated in a centrifugal field of 250 g. The Voigt-Kelvin rheological model was found to be well suited to describe the packing process. The ratio of the elastic modulus to viscosity was evaluated from this model. Its value suggests that the flexibility of the cell plays a minor role compared to other viscosity factors. Also the model suggests that the rate of packing is a complicated function of various viscoelastic factors. Empirical parameters describing the rate of packing are sensitive to drastic changes in cell flexibility, such as caused by formaldehyde treatment, whereas no fluidizing effect of procaine on cell membrane was detected. The rate of packing is not affected by decreasing the pH from 7.4 to 6.5. The method of mild centrifugation could be of some use for rapid evaluation of substantial flexibility changes in washed blood cells. 相似文献
