Vacuolar-H(+)-ATPase (V-H-ATPase) is a large multimeric protein composed of at least 12 distinct subunits. The 16-kDa hydrophobic proteolipid subunit (ATP6V0C; ATPase, H(+ )transporting, lysosomal 16 kDa, V0 subunit C) plays a central role in H(+) transport across cellular membranes. We have mapped three ATP6V0C genes (Atp6v0c, Atp6v0c-ps1 and Atp6voc-ps2) in the murine genome. Atp6v0c-ps1 and Atp6v0c-ps2 map to Chromosomes 7 and 6, respectively. Atp6v0c maps to Chromosome 17, closely linked to the Tsc2 locus and D17Mit55. This region of Chromosome 17 in mouse is homologous with chromosome 16 in human where the ATP6V0C gene is localized.  相似文献

The mediatophore is a presynaptic membrane protein that has been shown to translocate acetylcholine (ACh) under calcium stimulation when reconstituted into artificial membranes. The mediatophore subunit, a 15-kDa proteolipid, presents a very high sequence homology with the N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-binding proteolipid subunit of the vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase. This prompted us to study the effect of DCCD, a potent blocker of proton translocation, on calcium-dependent ACh release. The present work shows that DCCD has no effect on ACh translocation either from Torpedo synaptosomes or from proteoliposomes reconstituted with purified mediatophore. However, using [14C]DCCD, we were able to demonstrate that the drug does bind to the 15-kDa proteolipid subunit of the mediatophore. These results suggest that although the 15-kDa proteolipid subunits of the mediatophore and the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase may be identical, different domains of these proteins are involved in proton translocation and calcium-dependent ACh release and that the two proteins have a different membrane organization.  相似文献

Parietal cells are one of the largest epithelium cells of the mucous membrane of the stomach that secrete hydrochloric acid.To study the function of gastric parietal cells during gastric epithelium homeostasis,we generated a transgenie mouse line,namely,Atp4b-Cre,in which the expression of Cre recombinase was controlled by a 1.0 kb promoter of mouse β-subunit of H+-,K+-ATPase gene(Atp4b).In order to test the tissue distribution and excision activity of Cre recombinase in vivo,the Atp4b-Cre transgenic mice were bred with the reporter strain ROSA26 and a mouse strain that carries Smad4 conditional alleles(Smad4Co/Co).Multiple-tissue PCR of Atp4b-Cre;Smad4Co/+mice revealed that the recombination only happened in the stomach.As indicated by LacZ staining,ROSA26;Atp4b-Cre double transgenic mice showed efficient expression of Cre recombinase within the gastric parietal cells.These results showed that this Atp4b-Cre mouse line could be used as a powerful tool to achieve conditional gene knockout in gastric parietal cells.  相似文献

In mammals, the most poorly understood P-type ATPases are those of the P(5) subfamily. To begin characterization of the mammalian P(5)-ATPases, BLAST searches of DNA sequence databases were performed. Five genes were identified in the mouse, human, dog, and rat genomes, and the coding sequences of the mouse genes, termed Atp13a1-Atp13a5, were determined. The intron/exon organization of Atp13a1 differs entirely from those of Atp13a2-5, which are closely related. Amino acid sequence comparisons between the five mouse and two yeast P(5)-ATPases suggest that Atp13a1 is orthologous to the yeast Cod1 gene and that Atp13a2-5 are orthologous to yeast Yor291w. Northern blot analysis showed that Atp13a1, Atp13a2, and Atp13a3 mRNAs were expressed in all mouse tissues, whereas Atp13a4 and Atp13a5 mRNAs were restricted to brain and stomach. While the substrate specificity of these transporters is unknown, their importance is underscored by the presence of homologs in fish, insects, worms, and other eukaryotes.  相似文献

In the present study we have identified a new metalloprotease encoded by the nuclear ATP23 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is essential for expression of mitochondrial ATPase (F(1)-F(O) complex). Mutations in ATP23 cause the accumulation of the precursor form of subunit 6 and prevent assembly of F(O). Atp23p is associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane and is conserved from yeast to humans. A mutant harboring proteolytically inactive Atp23p accumulates the subunit 6 precursor but is nonetheless able to assemble a functional ATPase complex. These results indicate that removal of the subunit 6 presequence is not an essential event for ATPase biogenesis and that Atp23p, in addition to its processing activity, must provide another important function in F(O) assembly. The product of the yeast ATP10 gene was previously shown to interact with subunit 6 and to be required for its association with the subunit 9 ring. In this study one extra copy of ATP23 was found to be an effective suppressor of an atp10 null mutant, suggesting an overlap in the functions of Atp23p and Atp10p. Atp23p may, therefore, also be a chaperone, which in conjunction with Atp10p mediates the association of subunit 6 with the subunit 9 ring.  相似文献

Changes in the primary and quarternary structure of vacuolar and archaeal type ATPases that accompany the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition are analyzed. The gene encoding the vacuolar-type proteolipid of the V-ATPase from Giardia lamblia is reported. Giardia has a typical vacuolar ATPase as observed from the common motifs shared between its proteolipid subunit and other eukaryotic vacuolar ATPases, suggesting that the former enzyme works as a hydrolase in this primitive eukaryote. The phylogenetic analyses of the V-ATPase catalytic subunit and the front and back halves of the proteolipid subunit placed Giardia as the deepest branch within the eukaryotes. Our phylogenetic analysis indicated that at least two independent duplication and fusion events gave rise to the larger proteolipid type found in eukaryotes and in Methanococcus. The spatial distribution of the conserved residues among the vacuolar-type proteolipids suggest a zipper-type interaction among the transmembrane helices and surrounding subunits of the V-ATPase complex. Important residues involved in the function of the F-ATP synthase proteolipid have been replaced during evolution in the V-proteolipid, but in some cases retained in the archaeal A-ATPase. Their possible implication in the evolution of V/F/A-ATPases is discussed. Received: 27 August 1997 / Accepted: 14 January 1998  相似文献

Bone resorption relies on the extracellular acidification function of V-ATPase (vacuolar-type proton-translocating ATPase) proton pump(s) present in the plasma membrane of osteoclasts. The exact configuration of the osteoclast-specific ruffled border V-ATPases remains largely unknown. In the present study, we found that the V-ATPase subunit Atp6v1c1 (C1) is highly expressed in osteoclasts, whereas subunits Atp6v1c2a (C2a) and Atp6v1c2b (C2b) are not. The expression level of C1 is highly induced by RANKL [receptor activator for NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB) ligand] during osteoclast differentiation; C1 interacts with Atp6v0a3 (a3) and is mainly localized on the ruffled border of activated osteoclasts. The results of the present study show for the first time that C1-silencing by lentivirus-mediated RNA interference severely impaired osteoclast acidification activity and bone resorption, whereas cell differentiation did not appear to be affected, which is similar to a3 silencing. The F-actin (filamentous actin) ring formation was severely defected in C1-depleted osteoclasts but not in a3-depleted and a3(-/-) osteoclasts. C1 co-localized with microtubules in the plasma membrane and its vicinity in mature osteoclasts. In addition, C1 co-localized with F-actin in the cytoplasm; however, the co-localization chiefly shifted to the cell periphery of mature osteoclasts. The present study demonstrates that Atp6v1c1 is an essential component of the osteoclast proton pump at the osteoclast ruffled border and that it may regulate F-actin ring formation in osteoclast activation.  相似文献

We report a new nuclear gene, designated ATP25 (reading frame YMR098C on chromosome XIII), required for expression of Atp9p (subunit 9) of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondrial proton translocating ATPase. Mutations in ATP25 elicit a deficit of ATP9 mRNA and of its translation product, thereby preventing assembly of functional F(0). Unlike Atp9p, the other mitochondrial gene products, including ATPase subunits Atp6p and Atp8p, are synthesized normally in atp25 mutants. Northern analysis of mitochondrial RNAs in an atp25 temperature-sensitive mutant confirmed that Atp25p is required for stability of the ATP9 mRNA. Atp25p is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein with a predicted mass of 70 kDa. The primary translation product of ATP25 is cleaved in vivo after residue 292 to yield a 35-kDa C-terminal polypeptide. The C-terminal half of Atp25p is sufficient to stabilize the ATP9 mRNA and restore synthesis of Atp9p. Growth on respiratory substrates, however, depends on both halves of Atp25p, indicating that the N-terminal half has another function, which we propose to be oligomerization of Atp9p into a proper size ring structure.  相似文献

Mottled Tohoku (Atp7a(Mo-Tohm) or Mo(Tohm)) is an X-linked mutation with mottled pigmentation in heterozygous (Mo(Tohm)/+) females and is embryonic lethal at E11 in hemizygous (Mo(Tohm)/Y) males. Copper levels were low in the brain and high in the intestine of Mo(Tohm) mice. Two congenic strains with ICR or C57BL/6 (B6) background were produced for genetic and phenotypic analyses and revealed that Mo(Tohm)/+ females with ICR background survived until adulthood, while most with B6 background died within 2 days after birth. The Mo(Tohm)/Y males with both backgrounds died at around E11. Massive hemorrhage was shown in the yolk sac cavity with irregular attachment between the mesoderm and the endothelial cells of blood vessels in the embryos at E10.5, suggesting that this irregular attachment causes embryonic lethality. The Mo(Tohm) mutant had a 1440-bp deletion between intron 22 and exon 23 of the Atp7a gene. Mo(Tohm)/Y males with the wild-type Atp7a cDNA transgene were rescued from embryonic lethality, confirming that the Mo(Tohm) mutant is caused by the defect in the Atp7a gene. This mutant mouse is the most severe model of human Menkes disease in mottled mice established to date and one of the useful models for understanding the gene function of Menkes disease.  相似文献

An analysis of genes for the major two subunits of the membrane-associated ATPase from an acidothermophilic archaebacterium, Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, suggested that it belongs to a different ATPase family from the F1-ATPase (Denda, K., Konishi, J., Oshima, T., Date, T., and Yoshida, M. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 17251-17254). In the same operon of the above two genes we found a gene encoding a very hydrophobic protein of 101 amino acids (Mr = 10,362). A proteolipid was purified from the membranes of this bacteria in which partial amino acid sequences matched with the sequence deduced from the gene. Significant amino acid sequence homology and a similar hydropathy profile appeared when the sequence was compared with the 8-kDa proteolipid subunit of F0F1-ATPases. It is about 30 amino acids larger than the 8-kDa proteolipid and has a small (11-amino acid) repeat sequence. However, it is distinct from the 16-kDa proteolipid subunit of an eukaryotic vacuolar H+-ATPase (Mandel, M., Moriyama, Y., Hulmes, J.D., Pan, Y.-E., Nelson, H., and Nelson, N. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 85,5521-5524).  相似文献

Atp6p (subunit 6) of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondrial ATPase is synthesized with an N-terminal 10-amino acid presequence that is cleaved during assembly of the complex. This study has examined the role of the Atp6p presequence in the function and assembly of the ATPase complex. Two mutants were constructed in which the codons for amino acids 2-9 or 2-10 of the Atp6p precursor were deleted from the mitochondrial ATP6 gene. The concentration of Atp6p and ATPase complex was approximately 2 times less in the mutants. The lower concentration of ATPase complex in the leaderless mutants correlated with less Atp6p complexed with the Atp9p ring of the F0 sector and with accumulation of an Atp6p-Atp8p complex that aggregated into polymers destined for eventual proteolytic elimination. We propose that the presequence either targets Atp6p to the Atp9p or signals insertion of the Atp6p precursor into a microcompartment of the membrane for more efficient interaction with the Atp9p ring. Despite the ATPase deficiency, growth of the leaderless atp6 mutants on respiratory substrates and the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation were similar to that of wild type, indicating that the mutations did not affect the proton permeability of mitochondria.  相似文献

The P-type ATPases comprise a well-studied family of proteins involved in the active transport of charged substrates across biological membranes. Starting from a mouse bone marrow-derived macrophage cDNA library and using a signal peptide trapping strategy, we identified a new P-type ATPase family member. We characterized the genomic structure of this gene, named Atp10d, as well as its human counterpart. The presence of P-type ATPase consensus motifs and phylogenetic analysis showed that this gene is a member of the type IV, putative amphipath transporters subfamily. We showed that this gene is expressed in kidney and placenta. We also found that the C57BL/6 strain carries a constitutive stop codon in the sequence of Atp10d exon 12, whereas 14 other inbred mouse strains show an uninterrupted reading frame at this location. This mutation in C57BL/6 should lead to a non-functional protein, suggesting that this gene may not be essential. We discuss the involvement of the Atp10d gene in the fat-prone phenotype of the C57BL/6 strain and its physical mapping within a QTL associated with HDL-cholesterol levels.  相似文献

Demineralizing extracts of porcine bone contain two large 66-80-kDa sialoproteins and smaller 20- and 23-kDa glycoproteins with similar chemical properties. Each protein was characterized following extraction from fetal calvariae and purification under dissociative conditions using Sepharose CL-6B, followed by fast protein liquid chromatography fractionation on hydroxyapatite and Mono Q resins. Unlike the large sialoproteins, the 20- and 23-kDa glycoproteins did not contain sialic acid. Nevertheless, affinity-purified antibodies raised against the 23-kDa protein recognized both the 20-kDa protein and a 67-kDa sialoprotein on immunoblots. These antibodies also immunoprecipitated a 60-kDa [35S]methionine-labeled protein produced by cell-free synthesis of calvarial bone mRNA, indicating that the smaller proteins were derived from the 67-kDa protein. The two sialoproteins were shown by primary sequence analysis to be secreted phosphoprotein I (SPPI, osteopontin, bone sialoprotein I) and bone sialoprotein (BSP, bone sialoprotein II). The SPPI was also characterized by its susceptibility to thrombin which produced a 23-kDa fragment, similar to the glycoprotein isolated, and a 30-kDa fragment. Amino-terminal sequence analysis of the 23- and 20-kDa proteins revealed that these proteins were derived from the carboxyl-terminal half of the SPPI molecule, the proteins showing 58% identity with human and rat, and 50% identity with mouse, SPPI sequences. Both the 23- and 20-kDa proteins appeared to be generated by the activity of an endogenous trypsin-like protease that cleaves at Arg-Ser (residues 155-156) and Lys-Ala (residues 182-183) bonds. Radiolabeling studies performed in vitro showed that the 23-kDa fragment was detectable in mineralized tissue within 4 h. The fragment was phosphorylated but, unlike SPPI, was not sulfated. The rapid generation of the 23-kDa glycoprotein and its presence in different bone tissues at different developmental stages indicate that the fragmentation of SPPI is important in bone formation and remodeling.  相似文献
