In the chain of events by which chemotactic peptides stimulate NADPH oxidase-catalyzed superoxide formation in human neutrophils, the involvements of a pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide-binding protein (N-protein), mobilization of intracellular calcium and protein kinase C stimulation have been proposed. Superoxide formation was studied in membranes from human neutrophils; NADPH oxidase was stimulated by arachidonic acid in the presence of neutrophil cytosol. Fluoride and stable GTP analogues, such as GTP gamma S and GppNHp, which all activate N-proteins, enhanced NADPH oxidase activity up to 4-fold. GDP beta S inhibited the effect of GTP gamma S. These data suggest that NADPH oxidase is regulated by an N-protein, independent of an elevation of the cytoplasmic calcium concentration. 相似文献

Activation of NADPH oxidase in undifferentiated HL-60 leukemic cells and in HL-60 cells differentiated along the myeloid pathway with dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) or dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) was studied. Upon stimulation with a calcium ionophore, a phorbol ester, arachidonic acid or gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane, Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells generated superoxide (O2-) at higher rates than dbcAMP-differentiated cells. Undifferentiated cells generated O2- only at low rates upon stimulation with the above agents. In cell-free systems, NADPH oxidase activity was reconstituted by combining membranes of undifferentiated or dbcAMP- or Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells, cytosol of Me2SO-differentiated cells and arachidonic acid. This basal O2- formation was enhanced several-fold by guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP[gamma S]), a potent activator of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins. In contrast, cytosol of dbcAMP-differentiated cells reconstituted O2- formation only in the presence of GTP[gamma S], and cytosol of undifferentiated cells was inactive. Submaximally stimulatory amounts of cytosolic protein of Me2SO- and dbcAMP-differentiated cells synergistically stimulated O2- formation in the presence but not in the absence of GTP[gamma S]. We conclude that differentiations of HL-60 cells with Me2SO and dbcAMP are not equivalent with respect to activation of NADPH oxidase and that two cytosolic activation factors are involved in the regulation of this effector system. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid (20:4) and other cis-unsaturated fatty acids exert direct effects on a variety of cells, effects that do not depend on the metabolism of fatty acids via cyclooxygenase or lipoxygenase pathways. In these studies arachidonic acid and other cis-unsaturated fatty acids (but not trans-unsaturated or saturated fatty acids) increased the specific binding of the nonhydrolyzable analog of GTP, [35S]GTP gamma S, to purified neutrophil membrane preparations and elicited superoxide anion generation from intact neutrophils. There was a positive correlation (r = 0.70) between the capacity of fatty acids to increase nucleotide binding and to elicit the respiratory burst. Scatchard plot analysis of binding at equilibrium demonstrated an increase in the number of available GTP binding sites in the presence of 50 microM arachidonic acid. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents interfered with the arachidonic acid effect on [35S]GTP gamma S binding. ADP-ribosylation of the pertussis toxin substrate Gi alpha within the plasmalemma-reduced specific [35S]GTP gamma S binding and blocked arachidonate-dependent enhancement of binding. Moreover, pertussis toxin treatment of intact neutrophils inhibited arachidonic acid-induced superoxide anion generation. The data indicate that arachidonic acid directly activates a GTP binding protein in the neutrophil plasma membrane and may thereby act as a second messenger in signal transduction. 相似文献

NADPH-oxidase-catalyzed superoxide (O2-) formation in membranes of HL-60 leukemic cells was activated by arachidonic acid in the presence of Mg2+ and HL-60 cytosol. The GTP analogues, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S] and guanosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate, being potent activators of guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins), stimulated O2- formation up to 3.5-fold. The adenine analogue of GTP[gamma S], adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[gamma S]), which can serve as donor of thiophosphoryl groups in kinase-mediated reactions, stimulated O2- formation up to 2.5-fold, whereas the non-phosphorylating adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate was inactive. The effect of ATP[gamma S] was half-maximal at a concentration of 2 microM, was observed in the absence of added GDP and occurred with a lag period two times longer than the one with GTP[gamma S]. HL-60 membranes exhibited nucleoside-diphosphate kinase activity, catalyzing the thiophosphorylation of GDP to GTP[gamma S] by ATP[gamma S]. GTP[gamma S] formation was half-maximal at a concentration of 3-4 microM ATP[gamma S] and was suppressed by removal of GDP by creatine kinase/creatine phosphate (CK/CP). The stimulatory effect of ATP[gamma S] on O2- formation was abolished by the nucleoside-diphosphate kinase inhibitor UDP. Mg2+ chelation with EDTA and removal of endogenous GDP by CK/CP abolished NADPH oxidase activation by ATP[gamma S] and considerably diminished stimulation by GTP[gamma S]. GTP[gamma S] also served as a thiophosphoryl group donor to GDP, with an even higher efficiency than ATP[gamma S]. Transthiophosphorylation of GDP to GTP[gamma S] was only partially inhibited by CK/CP. Our results suggest that NADPH oxidase is regulated by a G protein, which may be activated either by exchange of bound GDP by guanosine triphosphate or by thiophosphoryl group transfer to endogenous GDP by nucleoside-diphosphate kinase. 相似文献

The NADPH-oxidase of human neutrophils can be activated in a cell-free system comprised of plasma membrane, cytosol, and an anionic amphiphile such as arachidonate or sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Recently, we showed that diacylglycerol acts synergistically with SDS in the cell-free system to stimulate superoxide generation, with concurrent phosphorylation of a 47-kDa cytosolic protein which is thought to be a component of the oxidase (Burnham, D. N., Uhlinger, D. J., and Lambeth, J. D. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17550-17559). We report herein that when undialyzed cytosol is used along with either SDS alone or SDS plus diacylglycerol as activators, adenosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (ATP gamma S) and guanosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) both stimulated superoxide generation several fold, yielding about the same maximal velocity. ATP and GTP showed lower levels of stimulation. Stimulation by ATP gamma S and GTP gamma S was nonadditive, and showed a 5-7-fold greater specificity for GTP gamma S. ATP gamma S stimulation was inhibited by the nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinase inhibitor UDP. In contrast, when extensively dialyzed cytosol was used, most of the stimulation by ATP gamma S was lost, while most of that by GTP gamma S was retained. Addition of GDP restored the ability of ATP gamma S to stimulate, consistent with NDP kinase-catalyzed formation of GTP gamma S from ATP gamma S plus GDP. This activity was demonstrated directly in both cytosol and plasma membrane. Using undialyzed cytosol, phosphorylation of p47 showed a similar nonspecificity for nucleoside triphosphates, due to NDP kinase activity, but revealed the expected ATP specificity when dialyzed cytosol was used. Neither ATP gamma S nor GTP gamma S were good substrates for protein phosphorylation. Under a variety of conditions, phosphorylation of p47 or other neutrophil proteins failed to correlate with oxidase activation. The present studies indicate that SDS and diacylglycerol stimulation of superoxide generation in the cell-free system is independent of protein kinase C or other protein kinase activity, and suggest a novel role for diacylglycerol in cell regulation. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr-virus-transformed human B lymphocytes (EBV B lymphocytes) stimulated by 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate exhibit an NADPH-dependent oxidase activity capable of generating the superoxide anion O2-, similar to, but less efficient than that of activated neutrophils. A cell-free system of oxidase activation consisting of a membrane fraction and cytosol from EBV B lymphocyte homogenate supplemented with guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), arachidonic acid and Mg2+ was found to be competent in the production of O2-, assessed by the superoxide-dismutase-sensitive reduction of cytochrome c in the presence of NADPH. However, cytochrome c reduction was slow and largely insensitive both to superoxide dismutase, and to iodonium biphenyl, a powerful inhibitor of the oxidase activity in neutrophils. A markedly faster reduction of cytochrome c in the presence of NADPH was obtained with a heterologous system consisting of cytosol from EBV B lymphocytes and bovine neutrophil membranes, GTP[S], arachidonic acid and Mg2+; in this system, reduction of cytochrome c was totally inhibited by superoxide dismutase and iodonium biphenyl. These results show that EBV B lymphocytes contain a substantial amount of cytosolic factors of oxidase activation, and that the limiting factors for O2- production in B lymphocytes are the membrane components of the oxidase complex. The heterologous system of EBV B lymphocyte cytosol and bovine neutrophil membranes provided a rapid and convenient method to diagnose cytosolic defects in autosomal forms of chronic granulomatous disease. In addition, it might be a useful tool to explore the mechanism of action of the cytosolic factors in oxidase activation. 相似文献

The leukocyte NADPH oxidase is an enzyme present in phagocytes and B lymphocytes that when activated catalyzes the production of O-2 from oxygen at the expense of NADPH. A correlation between the activation of the oxidase and the phosphorylation of p47(PHOX), a cytosolic oxidase component, is well recognized in whole cells, and direct evidence for a relationship between the phosphorylation of this oxidase component and the activation of the oxidase has been obtained in a number of cell-free systems containing neutrophil membrane and cytosol. Using superoxide dismutase-inhibitable cytochrome c reduction to quantify O-2 production, we now show that p47(PHOX) phosphorylated by protein kinase C activates the NADPH oxidase not only in a cell-free system containing neutrophil membrane and cytosol, but also in a system in which the cytosol is replaced by the recombinant proteins p67(PHOX), Rac2, and phosphorylated p47(PHOX), suggesting that neutrophil plasma membrane plus those three cytosolic proteins are both necessary and sufficient for oxidase activation. In both the cytosol-containing and recombinant cell-free systems, however, activation by SDS yielded greater rates of O-2 production than activation by protein kinase C-phosphorylated p47(PHOX), indicating that a system that employs protein kinase C-phosphorylated p47(PHOX) as the sole activating agent, although more physiological than the SDS-activated system, is nevertheless incomplete. 相似文献

Cis-unsaturated fatty acids (c-UFAs) have been shown to be capable of decreasing the survival of macrophage tumor (AK-5) cells in vitro. This cytotoxic action of c-UFAs was found to be associated with an increase in free radical generation and lipid peroxidation process and a simultaneous decrease in cellular anti-oxidants such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione and vitamin E. In the present study, it was observed that c-UFAs such as gamma linolenic acid (GLA), arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can activate phospholipase C (PLC) and enhance diacylglycerol formation; all the fatty acids except alpha linolenic acid (ALA) increased the binding of phorbol dibutyrate acetate (PDBu) suggesting translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) and at the same time these fatty acids (especially GLA, AA, EPA and DHA) also enhanced PKC activity. AA, EPA and DHA decreased the activity of protein kinase A (PKA) both in the cytosol and particulate fractions whereas ALA and GLA enhanced the PKA activity in the particulate fractions; all the fatty acids except ALA reduced cyclic AMP levels and an enhanced phosphorylation of about 13 proteins of the nuclear fraction and about eight proteins of the plasma membrane fraction was noted in c-UFA treated AK-5 cells in vitro. These results suggest that c-UFAs can alter the activities of second messenger systems such as diacylglycerol and protein kinases and can phosphorylate both plasma membrane and nuclear proteins which are likely to be components of NADPH oxidase. Based on these results, it is suggested that fatty acids may mediate their cytotoxic action in part by modulating the expression of PKC. Activated PKC may then intensify the pro-oxidant state by augmenting NADPH oxidase, so inducing superoxide anion generation which may ultimately lead to cytolysis. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of Rac 2. A cytosolic GTP-binding protein that regulates human neutrophil NADPH oxidase. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Human neutrophils and other phagocytes generate superoxide anion (O2-) as a means of destroying ingested microorganisms. O2- is produced by an NADPH-consuming oxidase composed of membrane and cytosolic components. Activation of the NADPH oxidase is absolutely dependent upon GTP, indicating the requirement for a GTP-binding protein in this process. We have utilized a five-step chromatographic procedure to isolate a GTP-binding protein from human neutrophil cytosol which can stimulate NADPH oxidase activity in a cell-free assay. Oxidase enhancing activity was shown to coisolate with this GTP-binding component, which was purified to apparent homogeneity. The GTP-binding protein was identified as Rac 2 by immunological reactivity and amino acid sequencing. Thus, Rac 2 appears to be a third cytosolic component required for human neutrophil NADPH oxidase activation. Recombinant Rac 2 was shown to bind guanine nucleotides in a Mg(2+)-dependent fashion. GDP dissociation rates were determined and shown to be regulated by the free Mg2+ concentration. Rac 2 was found to possess the highest rate of intrinsic GTP hydrolysis of any of the characterized members of the Ras superfamily. The biochemical properties of Rac 2 indicate it is likely to be subject to regulatory cofactors in vivo. 相似文献

Cytosolic factors in bovine neutrophil oxidase activation. Partial purification and demonstration of translocation to a membrane fraction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The O2(.-)-generating oxidase of bovine neutrophils is activated in a cell-free system consisting of a particulate fraction enriched in plasma membrane and containing the dormant oxidase, a high-speed supernatant from neutrophil homogenate (cytosol), Mg ions, GTP gamma S, and arachidonic acid [Ligeti, E., Doussiere, J., & Vignais, P.V. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 193-200]. The cytosolic components participating in the activation of the membrane-bound oxidase have been investigated. These components were resolved into several active peaks by Q Sepharose chromatography. The oxidase-activating potency of these peaks was synergistically enhanced by combining samples from separate peaks, or by supplying them with a threshold amount of crude cytosol. Partial purification of two active fractions containing a limited number of proteins of 65, 56, 53, and 45 kDa was achieved by gel filtration of cytosol on Ultrogel AcA44, followed by chromatography on hydroxylapatite and Mono Q. The specific oxidase-activating potency of these partially purified fractions (activating potency per milligram of soluble protein) was 6-8-fold higher than that of crude cytosol; it was enhanced up to 75-fold by complementation with a minute amount of crude cytosol, which per se had a limited efficiency. These data indicate that oxidase activation requires more than one cytosolic component to be activated. To check whether translocation of cytosolic proteins to the membrane occurred concomitantly with oxidase activation, use was made of radiolabeled cytosolic proteins. Cytosol was treated with phenyl[14C]isothiocyanate ([14C]PITC), such that 60% of its activation potency was still present.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The superoxide-generating respiratory burst oxidase (NADPH oxidase) from human neutrophils can be activated in a cell-free system consisting of plasma membranes, cytosol, and an anionic amphiphile such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or arachidonate, and guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTP(gamma)S) augments activation. We report herein that short-chain diacylglycerols (e.g. dioctanoylglycerol (diC8)) synergize with SDS in the activation of superoxide generation in a dose- and time-dependent manner, resulting in rates up to 1400 nmol/min/mg plasma membrane protein, or 250-700% higher than the rate seen with SDS alone. diC8 did not affect significantly the dose response for either cytosol or SDS, indicating that the activation was not due to increased sensitivity of the oxidase toward either of these components. At optimal concentrations of SDS and diC8, additional activation was observed in the presence of GTP(gamma)S, indicating that diC8 and GTP activate by separate mechanisms. In contrast to diC8, other known activators of protein kinase C (phorbol myristate acetate and mezerein) augmented SDS activation only minimally (typically 20-30%), and neither diacylglycerols nor tumor promoters activated in the absence of SDS. Activation by diC8 was calcium and phosphatidylserine independent, and the specificity for neutral lipids was atypical for protein kinase C. Inhibitors of protein kinase C (staurosporine and a peptide substrate analog) also failed to inhibit the response. Nevertheless, phosphorylation of several neutrophil proteins including p47phox was seen with both SDS and diC8, and synergistic phosphorylation of p47phox was seen when both activating factors were present. Thus, diacylglycerol synergizes with SDS in activating both superoxide generation and p47phox phosphorylation in the cell-free activation system, but the activation is atypical of a protein kinase C mechanism. 相似文献

NADPH oxidase in membranes of undifferentiated and dimethylsulphoxide-differentiated HL-60 cells was activated by arachidonic acid (AA) in the presence of Mg2+ and a cytosolic cofactor (CF) found in differentiated HL-60 cells. Basal superoxide (O2-) formation was enhanced several-fold by addition of the stable GTP-analogue, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), prior to AA and was completely prevented by that of GDP. Basal and GTP gamma S-stimulated O2- formation was terminated by GDP. In the presence of Mg2+ or EDTA, basal O2- formation ceased after 25 or 10 min, respectively, and was reinitiated by GTP gamma S or GTP gamma S plus Mg2+. Albumin terminated O2- formation, which was reactivated by AA in the presence of GTP gamma S. Our results show that (1) activation of NADPH oxidase in HL-60 membranes is dependent on endogenous GTP, Mg2+, AA and CF, which is induced during myeloid differentiation, and that (2) NADPH oxidase activation is a reversible process modulated by exogenous guanine nucleotides at various stages of activity of NADPH oxidase. We suggest crucial roles of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins in the activation, deactivation and reactivation of the enzyme. 相似文献

Human neutrophil respiratory burst oxidase (NADPH-oxidase) activity can be reconstituted in a cell-free system consisting of plasma membrane, cytosol and an anionic amphiphile [e.g., sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or arachidonate]. Herein, we report reconstitution of oxidase activity using isolated neutrophil plasma membrane together with purified recombinant p47-phox and p67-phox which had been produced using a baculovirus expression system. Activity required an anionic amphiphile (SDS or arachidonate) and was potentiated by diacylglycerol and GTP gamma S. Serial washes of the plasma membrane failed to affect its ability to reconstitute activity, indicating that a dissociable membrane component was not present. The Km for NADPH, 43 microM, was the same as that determined using cytosol in place of recombinant factors. The EC50 values for p47-phox and p67-phox under optimal activation conditions were 220 nM and 80 nM, respectively, indicating a relatively high affinity of these components in an activation complex. Since neither cytosolic component contains a nucleotide binding consensus sequence, these data indicate that the NADPH binding component of the oxidase resides in the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Agonist-activated phosphorylation of neutrophil proteins including p47-phox, a cytosolic component of the respiratory burst oxidase, has been implicated in the signal transduction cascade which leads to activation of the superoxide generating respiratory burst. We have previously reported (J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17550-59) that in a cell-free activation system consisting of cytosol plus plasma membrane from human neutrophils, diacylglycerol acts synergistically with an anionic amphiphile such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to augment superoxide generation and assembly of the oxidase, and that p47 phosphorylation can occur under these conditions. Herein, we show that a peptide corresponding to a carboxy terminal sequence of p47-phox is a substrate for phosphorylation both by purified protein kinase C (a mixture of alpha, beta, and gamma forms) and by a distinct kinase or kinases present in neutrophil cytosol. Based on its activator requirements, the neutrophil kinase differs from classical protein kinase C, but may be a protein kinase C variant, based on inhibition by a protein kinase C peptide. Although in the cell-free system phosphorylation occurs under conditions which are similar to those for activation of superoxide generation, phosphorylation is not required for activation (1). Rather, protein assembly or aggregation which occurs under activation conditions may also promote phosphorylation. 相似文献

ATP and guanine nucleotide dependence of neutrophil activation. Evidence for the involvement of two distinct GTP-binding proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In phagocytes, activation of the respiratory burst by chemoattractants requires ATP and involves a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. ATP is also required for the response elicited in permeabilized neutrophils by nonhydrolyzable GTP analogs, indicating that at least one of the ATP-dependent steps lies downstream of the receptor-coupled G protein(s). A respiratory burst can also be produced in a reconstituted cell-free system by addition of arachidonic acid. Most investigators find this response to be independent of ATP, yet stimulated by GTP analogs, implying that the ATP-dependent steps observed in the unbroken cells must precede the guanine nucleotide-requiring event. To resolve this apparent discrepancy, we studied the ATP and guanine nucleotide dependence of the oxidative response elicited by arachidonic acid in electrically permeabilized human neutrophils. Two components of the response were apparent: one was ATP-dependent, the other ATP-independent. The ATP-dependent component was partially inhibited by staurosporine, suggesting involvement of protein kinase C. This kinase signals activation of the NADPH oxidase without intervening G proteins, since stimulation by phorbol ester was unaffected by guanosine 5'-(beta-thio)diphosphate (GDP beta S). Although nonhydrolyzable GTP analogs failed to stimulate the oxidase in the absence of ATP, the ATP-independent response stimulated by arachidonic acid was found to require GTP or one of its analogs and to be inhibited by GDP beta S. The relative potency of the guanine nucleotides to support the arachidonic acid response in the absence of ATP (5'-guanylyl imidodiphosphate (GMP-PNP) greater than or equal to guanosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate GTP gamma S) greater than or equal to (GTP) differed from their efficacy to stimulate the burst in the presence of ATP (GTP gamma S greater than GMP-PNP much greater than GTP). These observations suggest the involvement of two distinct GTP-binding proteins in oxidase activation: a receptor-coupled, heterotrimeric, pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein, and a second GTP-binding protein(s) located downstream of the ATP-requiring steps, which may lie in close proximity to the NADPH oxidase. This secondary GTP-binding protein could be part of the pathway activated by chemoattractants, but does not mediate stimulation via protein kinase C. Therefore multiple parallel routes may exist for activation of the NADPH oxidase. 相似文献

Activation of NADPH-dependent superoxide production in plasma membrane extracts of pig neutrophils by phosphatidic acid 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Phosphatidic acid (PA), a molecule that is rapidly produced by the stimulated turnover of phospholipids in a variety of cells including blood neutrophils, elicited NADPH-dependent superoxide anion (O2-) production in detergent extracts from membranes of resting pig neutrophils. The stimulatory effect of PA was independent of cytosolic factors, differing from arachidonic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate which, on the contrary, absolutely required the presence of cytosol to elicit the same result. The O2(-)-forming activity of the detergent extract activable by PA, as that by sodium dodecyl sulfate and arachidonic acid plus cytosol, was found in the chromatographic fractions containing cytochrome b558 and presented a chromatographic profile identical to that of the activated NADPH oxidase, which was obtained from neutrophils prestimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The PA-induced NADPH-dependent O2(-)-forming activity showed kinetic properties and sensitivity to the inhibitors similar to the classical ones of the activated neutrophil NADPH oxidase. The data suggest that, in this cell-free system, PA may stimulate O2- formation by direct interaction with latent NADPH oxidase of neutrophils or with some of its regulatory components. 相似文献

Rac1 and Rac2 are closely related, low molecular weight GTP-binding proteins that have both been implicated in regulation of phagocyte NADPH oxidase. This enzyme system is composed of multiple membrane-bound and cytosolic subunits and when activated catalyzes the one-electron reduction of oxygen to superoxide. Superoxide and its highly reactive derivatives are essential for killing microorganisms. Rac proteins undergo posttranslational processing, primarily the addition of an isoprenyl group to a carboxyl-terminal cysteine residue. We directly compared recombinant Rac1 and Rac2 in a human neutrophil cell-free NADPH oxidase system in which cytosol was replaced by purified recombinant cytosolic components (p47-phox and p67-phox). Processed Rac1 and Rac2 were both highly active in this system and supported comparable rates of superoxide production. Under different cell-free conditions, however, in which suboptimal amounts of cytosol were present in the assay mixture, processed Rac2 worked much better than Rac1 at all but the lowest concentrations. This suggests that a factor in the cytosol may suppress the activity of Rac1 but not of Rac2. Unprocessed Rac proteins were only weakly able to support superoxide generation in either system, but preloading of Rac1 or Rac2 with guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio-triphosphate) (GTP gamma S) restored activity. These results indicate that processing is required for nucleotide exchange but not for interaction with oxidase components. 相似文献

The dormant O2(-)-generating oxidase in plasma membranes from unstimulated neutrophils becomes activated in the presence of arachidonate and a multicomponent cytosolic fraction. This process is stimulated by nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues and may involve a pertussis toxin insensitive GTP-binding protein. Our studies were designed to characterize the putative GTP-binding protein, localizing it to either membrane or cytosolic fraction in this system. Exposure of the isolated membrane fraction to guanosine-5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S), with or without arachidonate, had no effect on subsequent NADPH oxidase activation by the cytosolic fraction. Preexposure of the cytosolic fraction to GTP gamma S alone did not enhance activation of the membrane oxidase. However, preexposure of the cytosol to GTP gamma S then arachidonate caused a four-fold enhancement of its ability to activate the membrane oxidase. This enhancement was evident after removal of unbound GTP gamma S and arachidonate, and was not augmented by additional GTP gamma S during membrane activation. A reconstitution assay was developed for cytosolic component(s) responsible for the GTP gamma S effect. Cytosol preincubated with GTP gamma 35S then arachidonate was fractionated by anion exchange chromatography. A single peak of protein-bound GTP gamma 35S was recovered that had reconstitutive activity. Cytosol preincubated with GTP gamma 35S alone was similarly fractionated and the same peak of protein-bound GTP gamma 35S was observed. However, this peak had no reconstitutive activity. We conclude that the GTP-binding protein regulating this cellfree system is located in the cytosolic fraction. The GTP gamma S-liganded form of this protein may be activated or stabilized by arachidonate. 相似文献

The respiratory burst oxidase is a multimeric enzyme responsible for O2- production by stimulated neutrophils and a few other cell types. In the resting neutrophil, the oxidase is dormant, and its subunits are distributed between the cytosol, in which they appear to exist in the form of a multisubunit complex, and the plasma membrane; but, when the neutrophil is activated, the cytosolic complex translocates to the membrane to assemble the active enzyme. Using a cell-free system in which oxidase activity was elicited with SDS, we examined the effects of GTP gamma S and dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8) on both the activation of O2- production and the transfer of the cytosolic oxidase components p47phox and p67phox to the plasma membrane. GTP (added as undialyzed cytosol) and GTP gamma S augmented the transfer of the oxidase components to the plasma membrane and was essential for the acquisition of O2- producing activity by the oxidase. DiC8 also supported the SDS-mediated transfer of oxidase components to the membrane, but O2- production did not take place unless GTP or GTP gamma S was present. In the presence of these nucleotides, however, DiC8 augmented both translocation and O2- production. We interpreted these results in terms of a mechanism in which 2 membrane-binding sites are created during the activation of the cytosolic complex, one for diacylglycerol and the other for a second site on the membrane. Development of the second membrane-binding site depends upon the action of a G protein and is essential for the expression of oxidase activity. The results further suggested that the priming of the respiratory burst oxidase in intact neutrophils might be due to an increase in membrane diacylglycerol concentration that occurs in response to the priming stimulus. Because of the increased diacylglycerol content, a larger than usual amount of active respiratory burst oxidase could be assembled on the primed plasma membrane when the neutrophil is fully activated. 相似文献

Rabbit reticulocytes obtained by repeated bleeding metabolize exogenous [1-14C]linoleic acid and [1-14C]arachidonic acid by three different pathways. 1. Incorporation into cellular lipids: 50% of the fatty acids metabolized are incorporated into phospholipids, mainly phosphatidylcholine (32.8%) but also into phosphatidylethanolamine (12%), whereas about 10% of the radioactivity was found in the neutral lipids (mono- di- and triacylglycerols, but not cholesterol esters). 2. Formation of lipoxygenase products: 30% of the fatty acids metabolized are converted via the lipoxygenase pathway mainly to hydroxy fatty acids. Their formation is strongly inhibited by lipoxygenase inhibitors such as 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid or nordihydroguaiaretic acid. Inhibition of the lipoxygenase pathway results in an increase of the incorporation of the fatty acids into cellular lipids. 15-Hydroxy-5,8,11,13(Z,Z,Z,E)eicosatetraenoic acid and 13-hydroxy-9,11(Z,E)-octadecadienoic acid are incorporated by reticulocytes into cellular lipids and also are metabolized via beta-oxidation. The metabolism of arachidonic acid and linoleic acid is very similar except for a higher incorporation of linoleic acid into neutral lipids. 3. beta-Oxidation of the exogenous fatty acids: about 10% of the polyenoic fatty acids are metabolized via beta-oxidation to 14CO2. Addition of 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid strongly increased the 14CO2 formation from the polyenoic fatty acids whereas antimycin A completely abolished beta-oxidation. Erythrocytes show very little incorporation of unsaturated fatty acids into phospholipids and neutral lipids. Without addition of calcium and ionophore A23187 lipoxygenase metabolites could not be detected. 相似文献
