Mitochondrial Ca2+ has been considered a trigger for the release of cytochrome c, which is a critical and early event in the induction of cell apoptosis, although the molecular mechanism underlying this effect is still not fully understood. Here we investigate the interaction between cytochrome c and cardiolipin and the effect of Ca2+ on this interaction using electrochemical methods. Experimental results revealed that modification of cardiolipin onto the surface of a pyrolytic graphite electrode could lead to a rapid direct electron transfer of cytochrome c through the electrostatic interaction between the protein and the cardiolipin. Addition of Ca2+ to the test solution containing cytochrome c could cause the decrease of the redox peaks of the protein, and the peaks could be recovered when Ca2+ was chelated by ethylenediaminetetraacetate. The cardiolipin–cytochrome c interaction and the Ca2+ effect were also investigated with the variation of the charges of lipids, buffer solutions, reaction time, and valencies of cations for comparison. 相似文献

The effect of cytochrome c oxidase incorporation on the lipid polymorphism of the cardiolipin-Ca2+ system was investigated by 31P NMR and freeze-fracture electron microscopy. The integral membrane protein has a stabilizing effect on the bilayer organization of cardiolipin, in that it inhibits the Ca2+-induced HII phase formation of this lipid for Ca2+/cardiolipin molar ratios of 1-10. At a Ca2+/cardiolipin molar ratio of 25, about 80% of the lipid is organized in the HII phase and a structural phase separation occurs between the cardiolipin-Ca2+ complex organized in the hexagonal HII phase without protein and bilayer structures with incorporated protein. 相似文献

Cardiolipin peroxidation plays a critical role in mitochondrial cytochrome c release and subsequent apoptotic process. Mitochondrial pore transition (MPT) is considered as an important step in this process. In this work, the effect of peroxidized cardiolipin on MPT induction and cytochrome c release in rat heart mitochondria was investigated. Treatment of mitochondria with micromolar concentrations of cardiolipin hydroperoxide (CLOOH) resulted in a dose-dependent matrix swelling, DeltaPsi collapse, release of preaccumulated Ca2+ and release of cytochrome c. All these events were inhibited by cyclosporin A and bongkrekic acid, indicating that peroxidized cardiolipin behaves as an inducer of MPT. Ca2+ accumulation by mitochondria was required for this effect. ANT (ADP/ATP translocator) appears to be involved in the CLOOH-dependent MPT induction, as suggested by the modulation by ligands and inhibitors of adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT). Together, these results indicate that peroxidized cardiolipin lowers the threshold of Ca2+ for MPT induction and cytochrome c release. This synergistic effect of Ca2+ and peroxidized cardiolipin on MPT induction and cytochrome c release in mitochondria, might be important in regulating the initial phase of apoptosis and also may have important implications in those physiopathological situations, characterized by both Ca2+ and peroxidized cardiolipin accumulation in mitochondria, such as aging, ischemia/reperfusion and other degenerative diseases. 相似文献

The interaction between ferricytochrome c and cardiolipin was investigated by 1H n.m.r. at 270 MHz. From the phospholipid-induced changes of the protein spectral features it is concluded that the first 2 equivalents of cardiolipin cause a conformational change at the lower part of the solvent-exposed haem edge, involving a rearrangement of the hydrogen-bond interactions of propionate 6, thus partly accounting for the lowered redox potential of cytochrome c in the presence of cardiolipin. The increased value for the pK of the alkaline isomerization of ferricytochrome c shows that cardiolipin stabilizes the native structure of the protein, indicating that the oxidized form assumes ferrocytochrome c-like properties. Peroxidation of cardiolipin by superoxide radical ions drastically decreases the protein binding to this phospholipid. The implications of this finding, and the likelihood of the ternary cytochrome c-cardiolipin-cytochrome c oxidase complex, for the binding of cytochrome c to cytochrome c oxidase in vivo, are discussed in relation to peroxidative damage following ischaemia and reperfusion. 相似文献

Release of cytochrome c from mitochondria is considered a critical, early event in the induction of an apoptosis cascade that ultimately leads to programmed cell death. Mitochondrial Ca(2+) loading is a trigger for the release of cytochrome c, although the molecular mechanism underlying this effect is not fully clarified. This study tested the hypothesis that distinct Ca(2+) thresholds may induce cytochrome c release from rat liver mitochondria by membrane permeability transition (MPT)-dependent and independent mechanisms. The involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cardiolipin in the Ca(2+)-induced cytochrome c release was also investigated. Cytochrome c was quantitated by a new, very sensitive, and rapid reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography method with a detection limit of 0.1 pmol/sample. We found that a low extramitochondrial Ca(2+) level (2 microM) promoted the release of approximately 13% of the total alamethicin releasable pool of cytochrome c from mitochondria. This release was not depending of MPT; it was mediated by Ca(2+)-induced ROS production and cardiolipin peroxidation and appears to involve the voltage-dependent anion channel. High extramitochondrial Ca(2+) level (20 microM) promoted approximately 45% of the total releasable pool of cytochrome c. This process was MPT-dependent and was also mediated by ROS and cardiolipin. It is suggested that distinct Ca(2+) levels may determine the mode and the amount of cytochrome c release from rat liver mitochondria. The data may help to clarify the molecular mechanism underlying the Ca(2+)-induced release of cytochrome c from rat liver mitochondria and the role played by ROS and cardiolipin in this process. 相似文献

We have used two-dimensional infrared correlation spectroscopy (2D-IR) to study the interaction and conformation of cytochrome c in the presence of a binary phospholipid mixture composed of a zwitterionic perdeuterated phospholipid and a negatively-charged one. The influence of the main temperature phase transition of the phospholipid model membranes on the conformation of cytochrome c has been evaluated by monitoring both the Amide I' band of the protein and the CH(2) and CD(2) stretching bands of the phospholipids. Synchronous 2D-IR analysis has been used to determine the different secondary structure components of cytochrome c which are involved in the specific interaction with the phospholipids, revealing the existence of a specific interaction between the protein with cardiolipin-containing vesicles but not with phosphatidic acid-containing ones. Interestingly, 2D-IR is capable of showing the existence of significant changes in the protein conformation at the same time that the phospholipid transition occurs. In summary, 2D-IR revealed an important effect of the phospholipid phase transition of cardiolipin on the secondary structure of oxidized cytochrome c but not to either reduced cytochrome c or in the presence of phosphatidic acid, demonstrating the existence of specific intermolecular interactions between cardiolipin and cytochrome c. 相似文献

Bid is cleaved by caspase 8 during apoptosis and the truncated Bid (tBid) translocates to mitochondria by targeting cardiolipin. Amino acids 103-162 of Bid were reported as the cardiolipin-binding domain (CBD). The EGFP-CBD fusion protein targets to mitochondria and induces apoptosis. Using [(3)H]cardiolipin, we proved that recombinant CBD binds cardiolipin similar to tBid and tBid(G94E), a mutant with a defective BH3 domain. CBD could induce cytochrome c release from isolated mitochondria, but much less potent than tBid. Free cardiolipin inhibited the CBD-induced cytochrome c release, suggesting that it may be mediated by interfering with mitochondrial cardiolipin, especially with the interaction between cytochrome c and cardiolipin. This is consistent with the findings that CBD induced cytochrome c release in Bax-deficient cells, and that CBD suppressed mitochondrial respiration through directly interfering with cardiolipin, a critical lipid involved in oxidative phosphorylation. These results indicate the functional importance of CBD in tBid-induced apoptosis. 相似文献

Spin-label studies on the specificity of interaction of cardiolipin with beef heart cytochrome oxidase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The selectivity of interaction of various cardiolipin analogues with beef heart cytochrome oxidase in reconstituted complexes with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine has been studied by electron spin resonance spectroscopy, using lipids spin-labeled in the acyl chains. No difference in selectivity is observed between cardiolipin and its monolyso derivative, and similarly no selectivity is observed between phosphatidylcholine and lysophosphatidylcholine. Removal of the cardiolipin charge by methylation of the phosphate groups reduces but does not eliminate selectivity relative to phosphatidylcholine. The dependence of the lipid selectivity on head group and chain composition is in the order cardiolipin approximately equal to monolysocardiolipin greater than acylcardiolipin greater than dimethylcardiolipin greater than phosphatidylcholine approximately equal to lysophosphatidylcholine, where acylcardiolipin has the spin-label chain attached at the center -OH of the head group. The degree of association of the negatively charged cardiolipin derivatives with cytochrome oxidase decreases with increasing salt concentration, to a level comparable to that for dimethylcardiolipin. At high ionic strength there is still a marked selectivity relative to phosphatidylcholine. Li+ ions are more effective in screening the interaction than are Na+ ions, and divalent ions are more effective than monovalent ions. The selectivity for cardiolipin is only slightly reduced on titrating the protein to high pH. Alkylation of the protein with N-ethylmaleimide has little effect on the titration behavior. Covalent modification of the protein by reaction with citraconic anhydride decreases the selectivity of interaction with cardiolipin. It is concluded that cardiolipin possesses an additional specificity of interaction with cytochrome oxidase other than that of purely electrostatic origin. 相似文献

In this work, the actions of bovine heart cardiolipin, synthetic tetraoleyl cardiolipin, and a nonspecific anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on cytochrome c (Cyt c) peroxidase activity recorded by chemiluminescence in the presence of luminol and on the Fe...S(Met80) bond whose presence was estimated by a weak absorption band amplitude with peak at 695-700 nm (A(695)) were compared. A strict concurrency between Fe...S(Met80) breaking (A(695)) and cytochrome peroxidase activity enhancement was shown to exist at cardiolipin/Cyt c and SDS/Cyt c molar ratios of 0 : 1 to 50 : 1 (by chemiluminescence). Nevertheless, when A(695) completely disappeared, Cyt c peroxidase activity under the action of cardiolipin was 20 times more than that under the action of SDS, and at low ligand/protein molar ratios (=4), SDS failed to activate peroxidase activity while cardiolipin enhanced Cyt c peroxidase activity 16-20-fold. A(695) did not change on Cyt c binding with liposomes consisting of tetraoleyl cardiolipin and phosphatidylcholine (1 : 10 : 10), while peroxidase activity was enhanced by a factor of 8. Breaking of 70% of the Fe...S(Met80) bonds resulted in only threefold enhancement of peroxidase activity. Cardiolipin-activated Cyt c peroxidase activity was reduced by high ionic strength solution (1 M KCl). The aggregated data suggest that cardiolipin activating action is caused, first, by a nonspecific effect of Fe...S(Met80) breaking as the result of conformational changes in the protein globule caused by the protein surface electrostatic recharging by an anionic amphiphilic molecule, and second, by a specific acceleration of the peroxidation reaction which is most likely due to enhanced heme accessibility for H(2)O(2) as a result of the hydrophobic interaction between cardiolipin and cytochrome. 相似文献

Cytochrome c specifically induces non-bilayer structures in cardiolipin-containing model membranes 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
(1) The effect of cytochrome c addition on the phospholipid structure of liposomes composed of cardiolipin, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine in a pure form or in mixtures was investigated by 31P-NMR and freeze-fracture techniques. (2) Cytochrome c specifically induces the hexagonal Hii phase and possibly an inverted micellar structure of part of the phospholipids in cardiolipin-containing model membranes.

Kinetic and structural differences between cytochrome c oxidases from beef liver and heart 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
1. The cytochrome content of beef liver mitochondria differs from that of beef heart mitochondria by an eightfold lower cytochrome aa3 and a twofold lower cytochrome b and c + c1 content. 2. The kinetic properties of cytochrome c oxidases from beef liver and heart were measured with intact cytochrome c-depleted membranes, deoxycholate-dissolved membranes, and with the isolated enzymes at various cytochrome c concentrations with an oxygen electrode. Under all conditions a higher V was found for the liver enzyme, both for the low-affinity and for the high-affinity binding site for cytochrome c. Differences were also found for the Km of the two enzymes. 3. Isolated beef heart mitochondria contained about twice as much cardiolipin than beef liver mitochondria. The isolated enzymes contained one mole cardiolipin per mole of the heart enzyme, but 2 moles cardiolipin per mole of the liver enzyme. 4. By application of a high performance sodium dodecylsulfate gel electrophoretic system the two isolated enzymes could be separated into 13 different protein components, three of which (polypeptides VIa, VIIa and VIII) were found to differ in their apparent molecular weights. The functional meaning of cytochrome c oxidase isoenzymes in liver and heart is discussed. 相似文献

The interaction between cytochrome c and the anionic lipid cardiolipin has been proposed as a primary event in the apoptotic signaling cascade. Numerous studies that have examined the interaction of cytochrome c with cardiolipin embedded in a variety of model phospholipid membranes have suggested that partial unfolding of the protein is a precursor to the apoptotic response. However, these studies lacked site resolution and used model systems with negligible or a positive membrane curvature, which is distinct from the large negative curvature of the invaginations of the inner mitochondrial membrane where cytochrome c resides. We have used reverse micelle encapsulation to mimic the potential effects of confinement on the interaction of cytochrome c with cardiolipin. Encapsulation of oxidized horse cytochrome c in 1-decanoyl-rac-glycerol/lauryldimethylamine-N-oxide/hexanol reverse micelles prepared in pentane yields NMR spectra essentially identical to the protein in free aqueous solution. The structure of encapsulated ferricytochrome c was determined to high precision (<r.m.s. deviation>bb ∼ 0.23 Å) using NMR-based methods and is closely similar to the cryogenic crystal structure (<r.m.s. deviation>bb ∼ 1.2 Å). Incorporation of cardiolipin into the reverse micelle surfactant shell causes localized chemical shift perturbations of the encapsulated protein, providing the first view of the cardiolipin/cytochrome c interaction interface at atomic resolution. Three distinct sites of interaction are detected: the so-called A- and L-sites, plus a previously undocumented interaction centered on residues Phe-36, Gly-37, Thr-58, Trp-59, and Lys-60. Importantly, in distinct contrast to earlier studies of this interaction, the protein is not significantly disturbed by the binding of cardiolipin in the context of the reverse micelle. 相似文献

Molecular aspects of the bilayer stabilization induced by poly(L-lysines) of varying size in cardiolipin liposomes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The interaction between poly(L-lysines) of varying size with cardiolipin was investigated via binding assays, X-ray diffraction, freeze-fracture electron microscopy, and 31P- and 13C-NMR. Binding of polylysines to the lipid only occurred when three or more lysine residues were present per molecule. The strength of the binding was highly dependent on the polymerization degree, suggesting a cooperative interaction of the lysines within the polymer. Upon binding, a structural reorganization of the lipids takes place, resulting in a closely packed multilamellar system in which the polylysines are sandwiched in between subsequent bilayers. Acyl chain motion is reduced in these liquid-crystalline peptide-lipid complexes. From competition experiments with Ca2+ it could be concluded that when the affinity of the polylysine for cardiolipin was much larger than that of Ca2+, a lamellar polylysine-lipid complex was formed, irrespective of whether an excess of Ca2+ was added prior to or after the polypeptide. When the affinity of the polylysine for cardiolipin was less or of the same order as that of Ca2+, the lipid was organized in the hexagonal HII phase in the presence of Ca2+. These results are discussed in the light of the peptide specificity of bilayer (de)stabilization in cardiolipin model membranes. 相似文献

Reversible unfolding of cytochrome c upon interaction with cardiolipin bilayers. 1. Evidence from deuterium NMR measurements. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Deuterium NMR has been used to investigate the structure and dynamic state of cytochrome c complexed with bilayers of cardiolipin. Reductive methylation was employed to prepare [N epsilon, N epsilon-C2H3]lysyl cytochrome c, and deuterium exchange provided labeling of backbone sites to give [amide-2H]cytochrome c or more selective labeling of just histidine residues in [epsilon-2H]histidine cytochrome c. Deuterium NMR measurements on [N epsilon, N epsilon-C2H3]lysyl cytochrome c in the solid state showed restricted motions, fairly typical of the behavior of aliphatic side-chain sites in proteins. The [amide-2H]cytochrome c provided "immobile" amide spectra showing that only the most stable backbone sites remained labeled in this derivative. Relaxation measurements on the aqueous solution of [amide-2H]cytochrome c yielded a rotational correlation time of 7.9 ns for the protein, equivalent to a hydrodynamic diameter of 4.0 nm, just 0.6 nm greater than its largest crystallographic dimension. Similar measurements on [epsilon-2H]histidine cytochrome c in solution showed that all labeled histidine residues were also "immobile" compared with the overall reorientational motion of the protein. The interaction with cardiolipin bilayers appeared to create a high degree of mobility for the side-chain sites of [N epsilon, N epsilon-C2H3]lysyl cytochrome c and perturbed backbone structure to instantaneously release all deuterons in [amide-2H]cytochrome c. The [epsilon-2H]histidine cytochrome c derivative, when complexed with cardiolipin, failed to produce any detectable wide-line 2H NMR spectrum, demonstrating that the overall reorientational motion of bound protein was not isotropic on the NMR time scale, i.e., tau c greater than 10(-7)s.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

1. The interactions between cytochrome c (native and [(14)C]carboxymethylated) and monolayers of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidic acid and cardiolipin at the air/water interface was investigated by measurements of surface radioactivity, pressure and potential. 2. On a subphase of 10mm-or m-sodium chloride, penetration of cytochrome c into egg phosphatidylcholine monolayers, as measured by an increase of surface pressure, and the number of molecules penetrating, as judged by surface radioactivity, were inversely proportional to the initial pressure of the monolayer and became zero at 20dynes/cm. The constant of proportionality was increased when the cytochrome c was carboxymethylated or decreased when the phospholipid was hydrogenated, but the cut-off point remained at 20dynes/cm. 3. Penetrated cytochrome c could be removed almost entirely by compression of the phosphatidylcholine monolayer above 20dynes/cm. 4. With phosphatidic acid and cardiolipin monolayers on 10mm-sodium chloride the binding of cytochrome c was much stronger and cytochrome c penetrated into films nearing the collapse pressure (>40dynes/cm.). The penetration was partly electrostatically facilitated, since it was decreased by carrying out the reaction on a subphase of m-sodium chloride, and the relationship between the surface pressure increment and the initial film pressure moved nearer to that observed with phosphatidylcholine. 5. Surface radioactivity determinations showed that [(14)C]carboxymethylated cytochrome c was still adsorbed on phosphatidic acid and cardiolipin monolayers after the cessation of penetration. This adsorption was primarily electrostatic in nature because it could be prevented and substantially reversed by adding m-sodium chloride to the subphase and there was no similar adsorption on phosphatidylcholine films. 6. The penetration into and adsorption on the three phospholipid monolayers was examined as a function of the pH of the subphase and compared with the state of ionization of both the phospholipid and the protein, and the area occupied by the latter at an air/water interface. 7. It is concluded that the binding of cytochrome c to phospholipids can only be partially understood by a consideration of the ionic interaction between the components and that subtle conformational changes in the protein must affect the magnitude and stability of the complex. 8. If cytochrome c is associated with a phospholipid in mitochondria then cardiolipin would fulfil the characteristics of the binding most adequately. 相似文献

Monomolecular layers of lipid extracts of microsomal, mitochondrial outer and inner membranes, and pure lipid species have been used to measure their interaction with apo- and holocytochrome c. Large differences were observed both with respect to the nature and the lipid specificity of the interaction. The initial electrostatic interaction of the hemefree precursor apocytochrome c with anionic phospholipids is followed by penetration of the protein in between the acyl chains. Apocytochrome c shows similar interactions for all anionic lipids tested. In strong contrast the holoprotein discriminates enormously between cardiolipin for which it has a high affinity and phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol for which it has a much lower affinity. For these latter lipids the interaction with cytochrome c is primarily electrostatic. The cytochrome c-cardiolipin interaction shows several unique features which suggest the formation of a specific complex between the two molecules. These properties account for the preference in interaction of the apoprotein with the lipid extract of the outer mitochondrial membrane over that of the endoplasmic reticulum and the large preference of cytochrome c for the inner over that of the outer mitochondrial membrane lipid extract. Only apocytochrome c was able to induce close contacts between monolayers of the mitochondrial outer membrane lipids and vesicles of mitochondrial inner membrane lipids. Experiments with fragments of both protein and unfolding experiments with cytochrome c revealed that the differences in interaction between the two proteins are mainly due to differences in their tertiary structure and not the presence of the heme group itself. The initial unfolded structure of apocytochrome c is responsible for the high penetrative power of the protein and its ability to induce close membrane contact, whereas the folded structure of cytochrome c is responsible for the specific interaction with cardiolipin. The results are discussed in the light of the apocytochrome c import process in mitochondria and suggest that lipid-protein interactions contribute to targeting the precursor toward mitochondria and are important for its translocation across the outer mitochondrial membrane and the final localization of cytochrome c toward the outside of the inner mitochondrial membrane. 相似文献

Release of cytochrome c from the mitochondrial intermembrane space is critical to apoptosis induced by a variety of death stimuli. Bid is a BH3-only prodeath Bcl-2 family protein that can potently activate this efflux. In the current study, we investigated the mitochondrial localization of Bid and its interactions with mitochondrial phospholipids, focusing on their relationships with Bid-induced cytochrome c release. We found that Bid binding to the mitochondria required only three of its eight helical structures (alpha4-alpha6), but not the BH3 domain, and the binding could not be inhibited by the antideath molecule Bcl-x(L). Membrane fractionations indicated that tBid bound to mitochondrial outer membranes at both contact and noncontact sites. Bid could interact with specific cardiolipin species on intact mitochondria as identified by mass spectrometry. Like the binding to the mitochondria, this interaction could not be blocked by the mutation in the BH3 domain or by Bcl-x(L.) However, a cardiolipin-specific dye, 10-N-nonyl acridine orange, could preferentially suppress Bid binding to the mitochondrial contact site and inhibit Bid-induced mitochondrial cristae reorganization and cytochrome c release. These findings thus suggest that interactions of Bid with mitochondrial cardiolipin at the contact site can contribute significantly to its functions. 相似文献
