A 48 kDa protein arrests cGMP phosphodiesterase activation in retinal rod disk membranes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Photolyzed rhodopsin (R) catalyzes GTP-binding to alpha-transducins (T alpha); T alpha X GTPs then activate cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE). PDE activation is arrested by ATP in two ways: (i) initial velocity is suppressed, and (ii) PDE velocity rapidly returns to preactivation levels (turnoff). Arrestin (a 48 kDa protein) markedly enhances turnoff while not affecting initial velocity. Arrestin in the presence of ATP achieves rapid turnoff by directly inhibiting activated PDE, as indicated by its ability to inhibit the direct activation of PDE by T alpha X GMP--PNP (guanylyl-imidodiphosphate). Double reciprocal plots reveal a competition between arrestins and activated transducins for sites on PDE. Blocking R phosphorylation blocks initial velocity suppression but does not disturb rapid turnoff. Our data suggest a 2-fold mechanism for PDE deactivation: (i) formation of T alpha X GTPs is suppressed by R phosphorylation, while (ii) activation of PDE by T alpha X GTPs is competitively inhibited by arrestins when ATP is present. 相似文献

Involvement of ATP in activation and inactivation sequence of phosphodiesterase in frog rod outer segments 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase in frog rod outer segments is activated after flash illumination and is inactivated when left in the dark. ATP reduces the initial peak activity caused by dim flashes (with 50 microM ATP being required for a half-maximal effect) and also accelerates inactivation (with 2 microM ATP being required for a half-maximal effect). An acceleration of inactivation caused by ATP addition is 3-7-fold, depending on the preparation, and ATP effect can be observed even 1 min after a dim flash is given. The accelerated inactivation is also flash intensity-dependent. A low intensity of light causes more rapid inactivation than does a high intensity of light. ATP appears to control phosphodiesterase activity in various ways. 相似文献

The transbilayer redistribution of spin-labeled phospholipid analogues (SL-PL) with choline, serine, and ethanolamine head groups (PC, PS, and PE, respectively) was studied on intact disc vesicles of bovine rod outer segment membranes in the dark and after illumination. Redistribution was measured by the extraction of spin-labeled lipid analogues from the outer leaflet of membrane using the bovine serum albumin back-exchange assay. In the dark, PS was distributed asymmetrically, favoring the outer leaflet, whereas PC and PE showed small if any asymmetry. Green illumination for 1 min caused lipid head group-specific reorganization of SL-PL. Extraction of SL-PS by bovine serum albumin showed a fast transient (<10 min) enhancement, which was further augmented by a peptide stabilizing the active metarhodopsin II conformation. The data suggest a direct release of 1 molecule of bound PS per rhodopsin into the outer leaflet and subsequent redistribution between the two leaflets. SL-PE and SL-PC showed more complex kinetics, in both cases consistent with a prolonged period of reduced extraction (2 phospholipids per rhodopsin in each case). The different phases of SL-PL reorganization after illumination may be related to the formation and decay of the active rhodopsin species and to their subsequent regeneration process. 相似文献

Attempts to optimize the recovery of light-stimulated phosphodiesterase activity following reassociation of the hypotonically extractable proteins derived from retinal rod segments with hypotonically stripped disc membranes lead to the following observations: the best reassociations were obtained by mixing proteins and stripped disc membranes under hypotonic conditions and slowly increasing the salt concentration; the binding of G-protein and phosphodiesterase to stripped disc membrane occurs in less than 5 minutes and the recovery of light-stimulated phosphodiesterase activation in response to subsaturating stimulus levels requires 2-3 h to plateau. Stripped disc membranes and proteins were reassociated in 'isotonic' buffers containing KCl/NaCl, KCl/NaCl plus Mg2+, or KCl/NaCl plus Ca2+. Large fractional rhodopsin bleaches produced nearly identical light-stimulated phosphodiesterase activities in each of these samples and in the control rod outer segment membranes. Rod outer segment membranes and reassociated stripped disc membrane samples containing divalent cations showed similar phosphodiesterase activities in response to low fractional rhodopsin bleaches (e.g. less than or equal to 0.1%), however, samples devoid of divalent cations during reassociation required rhodopsin bleaches up to 10-fold larger to elicit comparable phosphodiesterase activities. These results suggest that not all phosphodiesterase and/or G-protein molecules bound to the disc membrane surface are equivalent with regard to their efficiency of activation by bleached rhodopsin and that divalent cations can modulate the distribution of G-protein and/or phosphodiesterase between these populations. 相似文献

Light “activates” phosphodiesterase activity of bovine rod outer segments in the presence of 0.1 mM ATP. In contrast, no difference in phosphodiesterase activity can be observed between dark-adapted and light-bleached outer segments in the absence of ATP. 相似文献

Rhodopsin kinase prepared from bovine rod disk membranes quenches light activation of cGMP phosphodiesterase in a reconstituted system 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A Sitaramayya 《Biochemistry》1986,25(19):5460-5468
Rhodopsin kinase was extracted into a buffer containing 200 mM KCl and no MgCl2. The activity of the enzyme was stabilized with the use of a mixture of protease inhibitors, aprotinin, benzamidine, leupeptin, and pepstatin. The extract consisted of three major proteins of molecular weight (Mr) 65,000, 56,000, and 37,000, of which the Mr 65,000 protein was identified with the kinase activity since preparations containing the other proteins had no kinase activity and the Mr 65,000 protein was phosphorylated when the extract was incubated with ATP. A reconstituted cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) system consisting of peripheral protein-depleted rod disk membranes (RDM), GTP binding protein (G-protein), and PDE was used to test the effectiveness of the rhodopsin kinase preparation in mediating the ATP-dependent quench of light activation of PDE. In the absence of kinase, light-activated PDE activity lasted several minutes. In its presence, ATP and to a lesser extent GTP quenched the activation about as rapidly as in rod disk membranes. The influence of kinase was unaffected by increasing G-protein or PDE content of the reconstituted system but was slowed down by brighter flashes, showing that quench was caused by the inactivation of bleached rhodopsin and not of PDE or G-protein. 相似文献

To clarify the role of phospholipids in G protein-effector interactions of vertebrate phototransduction, transducin activation of cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) has been reconstituted on the surface of well-defined phosphatidylcholine (PC) vesicles, using purified proteins from bovine rod outer segments (ROS). PC vesicles enhanced PDE stimulation by the GTP-gamma S-bound transducin alpha subunit (T alpha-GTP gamma S) as much as 17-fold over activation in the absence of membranes. In the presence of 3.5 microM accessible PC in the form of large (100 nm) unilamellar vesicles, 500 nM T alpha-GTP gamma S stimulated PDE activity to more than 70% of the maximum activity induced by trypsin. Activation required PC, PDE, and T alpha-GTP gamma S, but did not require prior incubation of any of the components, and occurred within 4 s of mixing. The PC vesicles were somewhat more efficient than urea-washed ROS membranes in enhancing PDE activation. Half-maximal activation occurred at accessible phospholipid concentrations of 3.8 microM for PC vesicles, and 13 microM for ROS membranes. Titrations of PDE with T alpha-GTP gamma S in the presence of membranes indicated a high-affinity (Kact less than 250 pM) activation of PDE by a small fraction (0.5-5%) of active T alpha-GTP gamma S, as did titrations of ROS with GTP gamma S. When activation by PC vesicles was compared to PDE binding to membranes, the results were consistent with activation enhancement resulting from formation of a T alpha-GTP gamma S-dependent PDE-membrane complex with half-maximal binding at phospholipid concentrations in the micromolar range. The value of the apparent dissociation constant, KPL, associated with the activation enhancement was estimated to be in the range of 2.5 nM (assuming an upper limit value of 1600 phospholipids/site) to 80 nM (for a lower limit value of 50 phospholipids/site). Another component of membrane binding was more than 100-fold weaker and was not correlated with activation by T alpha-GTP gamma S. Low ionic strength disrupted the ability of ROS membranes, but not PC vesicles, to bind and activate PDE. Removal of PDE's membrane-binding domain by limited trypsin digestion eliminated both the binding of PDE to vesicles and the ability of PDE to be activated by T alpha-GTP gamma S and membranes. These results suggest that ROS membrane stimulation of PDE activation by T alpha-GTP gamma S is due almost exclusively to the phospholipids in the disk membrane. 相似文献

Calcium-dependent activation and deactivation of rod outer segment phosphodiesterase is calmodulin-independent 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
ATP-dependent activation and deactivation of retinal rod outer segment phosphodiesterase is affected by calcium [Kawamura, S. and Bownds, M. D., J. Gen. Physiol. 77:571-591(1981)]. Our data demonstrate that although calmodulin has been found in rod outer segments [Liu, Y. P. and Schwartz, H., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 526:186-193(1978); Kohnken, R. E. et al, J. Biol. Chem. 256:12517-12522(1981)], this protein is not involved in calcium-dependent phosphodiesterase activation at light levels at which calcium clearly affects this enzyme's activity. Furthermore, calmodulin does not mediate the calcium-dependent deactivation of phosphodiesterase. 相似文献

Light-induced GTP-dependent scattering changes are studied in suspensions of retinal disc membranes to which one or both of the purified proteins involved in the phototransduction mechanism (G-protein and cGMP phosphodiesterase) are reassociated; a scattering change which depends on the presence of both G-protein (G) and inhibited cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) and on an ATPase-dependent process, previously described in Bennett [(1986) Eur. J. Biochem. 157, 487-495] is compared to the signal observed in the absence of PDE or of ATP and to PDE activity. The same signal can also be induced either in the dark or in the light by addition of preactivated G in the presence of inhibited PDE. This PDE-dependent scattering change is composed of two components (fast and slow); the variation of the amplitude and kinetics of both components with PDE or G concentration is similar to the variation of the active PDE state with two activator GGTP molecules (G with GTP bound), calculated with dissociation constants previously reported for the interaction between GGTP and PDE [Bennett, N., & Clerc, A. (1989) Biochemistry 28, 7418-7424]. The two components are therefore proposed to be associated with processes which depend on the formation of the active PDE state with two activators. 相似文献

Our previous study has shown that P gamma, the regulatory subunit of cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE), is ADP-ribosylated by endogenous ADP-ribosyltransferase when P gamma is free or complexed with the catalytic subunits of PDE in amphibian rod photoreceptor membranes. The P gamma domain containing ADP-ribosylated arginines was shown to be involved in its interaction with T alpha, a key interaction for PDE activation. In this study, we describe a possible function of the P gamma ADP-ribosylation in the GTP/T alpha-dependent PDE activation. When rod membranes were preincubated with or without NAD and washed with a buffer containing GTP, the PDE activity of NAD-preincubated membranes was increased by the GTP-washing only to approximately 50% of that of membranes preincubated without NAD. The P gamma release by the GTP-washing from these NAD-preincubated membranes was also suppressed to approximately 50% of that preincubated without NAD. Taking into consideration that approximately 50% of P gamma is ADP-ribosylated under these conditions, these observations suggest that the ADP-ribosylated P gamma cannot interact with GTP/T alpha. We have also shown that a soluble fraction of ROS contains an enzyme(s) to release the radioactivity of [32P]ADP-ribosylated P gamma in concentration- and time-dependent manners, suggesting that the P gamma ADP-ribosylation is reversible. Rod ADP-ribosyltransferase solubilized from membranes by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C was separated into two fractions by ion-exchange columns. Biochemical characterization of these two fractions, including measurement of the Km for NAD and P gamma, estimation of their molecular masses, ADP-ribosylation of P gamma arginine mutants, effects of ADP-ribosyltransferase inhibitors on the P gamma ADP-ribosylation, and effects of salts and pH on the P gamma ADP-ribosylation, indicates that rod ADP-ribosyltransferase contains two isozymes, and that these two isozymes have similar properties for the P gamma ADP-ribosylation. Our observations strongly suggest that the negative regulation of PDE through the reversible P gamma ADP-ribosylation may function in the phototransduction mechanism. 相似文献

Diffusion-enhanced fluorescence energy transfer was used to study the structure of photoreceptor membranes from bovine retinal rod outer segments. The fluorescent energy donor was Tb3+ chelated to dipicolinate and the acceptor was the 11-cis retinal chromophore of rhodopsin in vesicles made from disc membranes. The rapid-diffusion limit for energy transfer was attained in these experiments because of the long excited state lifetime of the terbium donor (~2 ms). Under these conditions, energy transfer is very sensitive to a, the distance of closest approach between the donor and acceptor (Thomas et al., 1978). Vesicles containing terbium dipicolinate in their inner aqueous space were prepared by sonicating disc membranes in the presence of this chelate and chromatographing this mixture on a gel filtration column. The sidedness of rhodopsin in these vesicles was the same as in native disc membranes. The transfer efficiency from terbium to retinal in this sample was 43%. For an R0 value of 46.7 Å and an average vesicle diameter of 650 Å, this corresponds to an a value of 22 Å from the inner aqueous space of the vesicle. The distance of closest approach from the external aqueous space, determined by adding terbium dipicolinate to a suspension of already formed vesicles, was found to be 28 Å. These values of a show that the retinal chromophore is far from both aqueous surfaces of the disc membrane. Hence, the transverse location of the retinal chromophore is near the center of the hydrophobic core of the disc membrane. These findings suggest that conformational changes induced by photoisomerization are transmitted through a distance of at least 20 Å within rhodopsin to trigger subsequent events in visual excitation. 相似文献

Stimulated hydrolysis of the inositol phospholipids phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] was investigated by studying the phosphoinositides produced in a suspended preparation of plasma membranes by transference of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP. At basal Ca2+ concentration (calculated free Ca2+, 150 nM) phospholipid hydrolysis was stimulated either by the muscarinic agonists carbamoylcholine and bethanecol or by the addition of the non-hydrolysable analogue of GTP, guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate [p(NH)ppG]. GTP was without effect on basal hyrolysis. Both GTP and p(NH)ppG enhanced the rapid (within 10 s) hydrolysis of PtdIns4P and PtdIns(4,5)P2 induced by carbamoylcholine in a dose-dependent manner. A rightward shift in the competition curve of carbamoylcholine for bound L-[3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate was seen on addition of GTP or p(NH)ppG (100 microM) under phosphorylating conditions. Pretreatment of intact islet cells with Bordetella pertussis toxin, islet-activating protein (IAP) or treatment of membranes with IAP under conditions which elicited ADP-ribosylation of a protein of Mr 41,000 was without effect on muscarinic binding, phosphoinositide phosphorylation or subsequent hydrolysis by carbamoylcholine. The findings indicate the involvement of a GTP-binding protein in the coupling of the muscarinic receptor to phosphoinositide hydrolysis in the islet cell and suggest that this is distinct from the GTP-binding regulatory component of adenylate cyclase which is covalently modified by IAP. 相似文献

Lipid-protein interactions in frog rod outer segment disc membranes. Characterization by spin labels 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Freely-diffusing phospholipid spin labels have been employed to study rhodopsin-lipid interactions in frog rod outer segment disc membranes. Examination of the ESR spectra leads us to the conclusion that there are two motionally distinguishable populations of lipid existing in frog rod outer segment membranes over a wide physiological temperature range. Each of the spin probes used shows a two-component electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum, one component of which is motionally restricted on the ESR timescale, and represents between 33 and 40% of the total integrated spectral intensity. The second spectral component which accounts for the remainder of the spectral intensity possesses a lineshape characteristic of anisotropic motion in a lipid bilayer, very similar in shape to that observed from the same spin labels in dispersions of whole extracted frog rod outer segment lipid. The motionally restricted spectral component is attributed to those spin labels in contact with the surface of rhodospin, while the major component is believed to originate from spin labels in the fluid lipid bilayer region of the membranes. Calculations indicate that the motionally restricted lipid is sufficient to cover the protein surface. This population of lipids is shown here and elsewhere (Watts, A., Volotovski, I.D. and Marsh, D. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 5006-5013) to be by no means rigidly immobilized, having motion in the 20 ns time regime as opposed to motions in the one nanosecond time regime found in the fluid bilayer. Little selectivity for the motionally restricted population is observed between the different spin-labelled phospholipid classes nor with a spin-labelled fatty acid or sterol. 相似文献

The rod photoreceptor phosphodiesterase (PDE) is unique among all known vertebrate PDE families for several reasons. It is a catalytic heterodimer (alphabeta); it is directly activated by a G-protein, transducin; and its active sites are regulated by inhibitory gamma subunits. Rod PDE binds cGMP at two noncatalytic sites on the alphabeta dimer, but their function is unclear. We show that transducin activation of frog rod PDE introduces functional heterogeneity to both the noncatalytic and catalytic sites. Upon PDE activation, one noncatalytic site is converted from a high affinity to low affinity state, whereas the second binding site undergoes modest decreases in binding. Addition of gamma to transducin-activated PDE can restore high affinity binding as well as reducing cGMP exchange kinetics at both sites. A strong correlation exists between cGMP binding and gamma binding to activated PDE; dissociation of bound cGMP accompanies gamma dissociation from PDE, whereas addition of either cGMP or gamma to alphabeta dimers can restore high affinity binding of the other molecule. At the active site, transducin can activate PDE to about one-half the turnover number for catalytic alphabeta dimers completely lacking bound gamma subunit. These results suggest a mechanism in which transducin interacts primarily with one PDE catalytic subunit, releasing its full catalytic activity as well as inducing rapid cGMP dissociation from one noncatalytic site. The state of occupancy of the noncatalytic sites on PDE determines whether gamma remains bound to activated PDE or dissociates from the holoenzyme, and may be relevant to light adaptation in photoreceptor cells. 相似文献

Binding of concanavalin A to bleached bovine retinal rod disc membranes is governed by a single association constant of 6.4 × 107 M?1, at 26 °C. α-Methyl glucoside competes with the saccharide ligand of the membrane for the saccharide-binding site of concanavalin A. The surface density of the saccharide ligand is calculated to be one ligand per 5 × 104Å2 of membrane surface. 相似文献
