Monoclonal antibody PH7 has specificity for the phosphorylated form of the human liver phenylalanine hydroxylase and negligible reactivity towards the dephosphorylated form of the native enzyme by enzyme-linked immunoassay. PH7 binds specifically to the phosphorylated form of the liver enzyme after SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and transfer to nitrocellulose. Competitive blocking assays have been applied in conjunction with reversed-phase h.p.l.c. of purified tryptic fragments of human liver phenylalanine hydroxylase to localize the epitope. The major immunoreactive tryptic peptide cross-reacting with PH7 had an amino acid analysis corresponding to the first 41 amino acids of the human liver phenylalanine hydroxylase sequence and included the serine residue that is thought to be the phosphorylation site. The monoclonal antibody recognized the phosphorylated form of the synthetic decapeptide corresponding to the local phosphorylation-site sequence Gly-Leu-Gly-Arg-Lys-Leu-Ser(P)-Asp-Phe-Gly, but not the dephosphodecapeptide. Thermolysin digestion of the peptide demonstrated the monoclonal antibody bound to the pentapeptide Leu-Ser(P)-Asp-Phe-Gly. Monoclonal antibody PH7 recognized the phosphodecapeptide at concentrations 10(3)-fold higher than with phenylalanine hydroxylase, compared with 10(4)-10(7)-fold higher for other phosphopeptides and phosphoproteins. The results demonstrate that monoclonal antibody PH7 has specificity for the phosphorylated form of phenylalanine hydroxylase at the phosphorylation site. 相似文献

Purified branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase (BCODH) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) had apparent Km values (microM) for 2-oxobutyrate of 26 and 114, with a relative Vmax. (% of Vmax. for 3-methyl-2-oxobutyrate and pyruvate) of 38 and 45% respectively. The phosphorylation state of both complexes in extracts of mitochondria from rat liver, kidney, heart and skeletal muscle was shown to influence oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxobutyrate. Inhibitory antibodies to BCODH and an inhibitor of PDH (3-fluoropyruvate) were used with mitochondrial extracts to determine the relative contribution of both complexes to oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxobutyrate. Calculated rates of 2-oxobutyrate decarboxylation in mitochondrial extracts, based on the kinetic constants given above and the activities of both complexes, were the same as the measured rates. Hydroxyapatite chromatography of extracts of mitochondria from rat liver revealed only two peaks of oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxobutyrate, with one peak associated with PDH and the other with BCODH. Competition studies with various 2-oxo acids revealed a different inhibition pattern with mitochondrial extracts from liver compared with those from heart or skeletal muscle. We conclude that both intramitochondrial complexes are responsible for oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxobutyrate. However, the BCODH is probably the more important complex, particularly in liver, on the basis of kinetic analyses, activity or phosphorylation state of both complexes, competition studies, and the apparent physiological concentration of pyruvate, 2-oxobutyrate and the branched-chain 2-oxo acids. 相似文献

An assay is described to define the proportion of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex that is present in the active state in rat tissues. Activities are measured in homogenates in two ways: actual activities, present in tissues, by blocking both the kinase and phosphatase of the enzyme complex during homogenization, preincubation, and incubation with 1-14C-labelled branched-chain 2-oxo acid, and total activities by blocking only the kinase during the 5 min preincubation (necessary for activation). The kinase is blocked by 5 mM-ADP and absence of Mg2+ and the phosphatase by the simultaneous presence of 50 mM-NaF. About 6% of the enzyme is active in skeletal muscle of fed rats, 7% in heart, 20% in diaphragm, 47% in kidney, 60% in brain and 98% in liver. An entirely different assay, which measures activities in crude tissue extracts before and after treatment with a broad-specificity protein phosphatase, gave similar results for heart, liver and kidney. Advantages of our assay with homogenates are the presence of intact mitochondria, the simplicity, the short duration and the high sensitivity. The actual activities measured indicate that the degradation of branched-chain 2-oxo acids predominantly occurs in liver and kidney and is limited in skeletal muscle in the fed state. 相似文献

Calcium plays an important role in the regulation of hepatic branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A fetal haemoglobin variant was noted in a healthy Jamaican infant of mixed African/Chinese extraction. A two-dimensional chromatogram of the soluble tryptic peptides (Tp) showed 2 ‘new’ ones/ One was composed of the last 4 residues of the usually insoluble Tpγ41–59. To permit a tryptic split this required a change of residue γ55 Met to Lys or Arg. The other new Tp contained arginine and was in the position expected for a Tpγ41–55 (55 Arg). As the material was limited it could not be analysed. When after more than 6 years no example of Hb F Kingston had become available it was decided to describe the variant on the basis of the present evidence. 相似文献

Actual and total branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase activities were determined in homogenates of incubated diaphragms from fed and starved rats. Incubation in Krebs-Ringer buffer increased the activity state, but caused considerable loss of total activity. Palmitate oxidation rates and citrate synthase activities did not significantly change on incubation. Starved muscles showed a higher extent of activation after 15 min of incubation (not after 30 and 60 min) and a smaller loss of total activity. Experiments with the transaminase inhibitor amino-oxyacetate confirm that the contribution of endogenous amino acids to the oxidation precursor pool is also smaller in diaphragms from starved rats on incubation in vitro. These phenomena together cause the higher 14CO2 production from 14C-labelled branched-chain amino acids and 2-oxo acids in muscles from starved than from fed rats. High concentrations of branched-chain 2-oxo acids, and the presence of 2-chloro-4-methyl-pentanoate, octanoate or ketone bodies, increase the extent of activation of the dehydrogenase complex; glucose and pyruvate had no effect. The observed changes of the activity state by these metabolites are discussed in relation to their interaction with branched-chain 2-oxo acid oxidation in incubated hemidiaphragms. 相似文献

1. Antiserum was raised against purified Wistar-rat liver UDP-glucuronyltransferase. 2. UDP-glucuronyltransferase activities towards 4-nitrophenol, bilirubin, 1-naphthol and morphine were co-immunoprecipitated from solubilized Wistar-rat liver preparations. 3. UDP-glucuronyltransferase activities towards 1-naphthol, 2-aminophenol and 4-nitrophenol were precipitated from solubilized Gunn-rat liver preparations by this antiserum. 4. UDP-glucuronyltransferase activities towards 1-naphthol, 4-nitrophenol and bilirubin, from Wistar-rat liver, were slightly inhibited by antiserum, whereas 1-naphthol UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity from Gunn-rat livers was greatly inhibited. 5. Measurable Wistar-rat liver glucuronyltransferase activities in washed immunoprecipitates indicate that the enzyme(s) were not merely inhibited by antiserum. 6. Immunoglobulin G purified from this antiserum immunoprecipitated transferase activities towards 4-nitrophenol, bilirubin and 1-naphthol. 7. The washed immunoprecipitates from both rat strains, containing UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity, appear to be similar when analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. 8. Radial-immunodiffusion studies suggest that a smaller amount of UDP-glucuronyltransferase protein is present in Gunn-rat liver than in Wistar-rat liver. 9. The significance of these results in relation to the genetic deficiency in the Gunn rat is discussed. 相似文献

The potential for branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex (BCOADC) activity to be controlled by feedback inhibition was investigated by calculating the Elasticity Coefficients for several feedback inhibitors. We suggest that feedback inhibition is a quantitatively important regulatory mechanism by which branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase activity is regulated. The potential for control of enzyme activity is greater for NADH than for the acyl-CoA products, and suggests that factors that alter the redox potential may physiologically regulate BCOADC activity through a feedback inhibitory mechanism in vivo. Local pH may also be an important regulatory control factor. 相似文献

Isolated adipocytes from rat epididymal fat-pads were incubated with [32P]Pi, and intracellular phosphoproteins were then analysed by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. A phosphorylated polypeptide of apparent Mr 46,000 was identified as the alpha-subunit of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex by immunoprecipitation using antiserum raised against the homogeneous E1 component of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex. Immunoprecipitation of this phosphoprotein is blocked in a competitive manner by purified branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex. Peptide mapping of the isolated phosphoprotein indicates that two sites on the polypeptide are phosphorylated in the intact cells. Addition of branched-chain 2-oxo acids to the incubation medium causes diminution in the extent of labelling of both phosphorylation sites on the alpha-subunit, an effect presumably mediated via their known inhibitory action on branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase kinase. These observations provide direct evidence for phosphorylation of branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex in intact cells. 相似文献

The activity of the intramitochondrial branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase (BCDH), like that of pyruvate dehydrogenase, is regulated, at least in part, by interconversion between the active dephosphorylated enzyme and its inactive phosphorylated form. The stimulatory effect of insulin on BCDH activity was compared with its effect on phosphorylation of the enzyme. Intact tissues were incubated in the presence or the absence of insulin, and then mitochondria were isolated and disrupted before assaying for enzyme activity or estimating the extent of enzyme phosphorylation. Tissues were incubated in either the presence or the absence of leucine, which also stimulated BCDH activity up to 10-fold. Insulin (1 munit/ml) doubled the activity of BCDH in the absence and in the presence of leucine. Together, 1 mM-leucine and insulin appeared to stimulate BCDH activity fully. Phosphorylation of BCDH was estimated indirectly by measuring the incorporation of 32P into phosphorylation sites that remained unesterified after preparing mitochondrial extracts under conditions that preserved the effect of insulin on BCDH activity. Increased incorporation of 32P in these experiments implies decreased phosphorylation in situ when tissues were incubated with insulin and leucine. In the absence of leucine, little incorporation of 32P into BCDH was detected. In the presence of leucine, however, incorporation of 32P into BCDH was markedly increased, and insulin increased 32P incorporation still further. The results support the hypothesis that leucine and insulin both stimulate the activity of BCDH by promoting its dephosphorylation. 相似文献

Crystal structure of 2-oxoisovalerate and dehydrogenase and the architecture of 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The family of giant multienzyme complexes metabolizing pyruvate, 2-oxoglutarate, branched-chain 2-oxo acids or acetoin contains several of the largest and most sophisticated protein assemblies known, with molecular masses between 4 and 10 million Da. The principal enzyme components, E1, E2 and E3, are present in numerous copies and utilize multiple cofactors to catalyze a directed sequence of reactions via substrate channeling. The crystal structure of a heterotetrameric (alpha2beta2) E1, 2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas putida, reveals a tightly packed arrangement of the four subunits with the beta2-dimer held between the jaws of a 'vise' formed by the alpha2-dimer. A long hydrophobic channel, suitable to accommodate the E2 lipoyl-lysine arm, leads to the active site, which contains the cofactor thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) and an inhibitor-derived covalent modification of a histidine side chain. The E1 structure, together with previous structural information on E2 and E3, completes the picture of the shared architectural features of these enormous macromolecular assemblies. 相似文献

Branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase catalyses the first irreversible step in the degradation of the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine. With specifically labelled 4-methyl-2-oxo[1-14C]pentanoate as substrate, the enzyme's activity was measured in rat liver homogenates. Activity (per g wet wL of liver or per mg of protein) increased most rapidly during the perinatal period (2 days before to 1 day after birth), reaching approximately adult values by the time of weaning. The apparent Vmax, of the enzyme increased with age, but its Km appeared unchanged. The data suggest that hepatic branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase is induced or activated during the perinatal period. The enzyme's activity at birth was unaffected by maternal diabetes, or by treating the mother with pharmacological doses of corticosterone or 3,3',5-tri-iodothyronine, during the last 5 days of pregnancy. 相似文献

Altered pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) functioning occurs in primary PDH deficiencies and in diabetes, starvation, sepsis, and possibly Alzheimer's disease. Currently, the activity of the enzyme complex is difficult to measure in a rapid high-throughput format. Here we describe the use of a monoclonal antibody raised against the E2 subunit to immunocapture the intact PDH complex still active when bound to 96-well plates. Enzyme turnover was measured by following NADH production spectrophotometrically or by a fluorescence assay on mitochondrial protein preparations in the range of 0.4 to 5.0 micro g per well. Activity is sensitive to known PDH inhibitors and remains regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation after immunopurification because of the presence of bound PDH kinase(s) and phosphatase(s). It is shown that the immunocapture assay can be used to detect PDH deficiency in cell extracts of cultured fibroblasts from patients, making it useful in patient screens, as well as in the high-throughput format for discovery of new modulators of PDH functioning. 相似文献

Heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy and other experiments indicate that the true substrate of the E1 component of 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes is not lipoic acid but the lipoyl domain of the E2 component. E1 can recognize the lipoyl-lysine residue as such, but reductive acylation ensues only if the domain to which the lipoyl group is attached is additionally recognized by virtue of a mosaic of contacts distributed chiefly over the half of the domain that contains the lipoyl-lysine residue. The lipoyl-lysine residue may not be freely swinging, as supposed hitherto, but may adopt a preferred orientation pointing towards a nearby loop on the surface of the lipoyl domain. This in turn may facilitate the insertion of the lipoyl group into the active site of E1, where reductive acylation is to occur. The results throw new light on the concept of substrate channelling and active-site coupling in these giant multifunctional catalytic machines. 相似文献

Branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex was resolved into component E1 and E2-kinase subcomplex by gel filtration in the presence of 1 M-NaC1. Essentially all the original activity of the complex can be regained after reconstitution of the component enzymes, reassociation being a rapid process. The specific activities of E1 and E2 were 25.1 and 19.0 units/mg respectively. Non-phosphorylated active E1 has an approx. 6-fold higher affinity for E2 than does phosphorylated E1. The components of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex do not crossreact with the respective components from the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. The significance of these results and of the tight association of the kinase with E2 are discussed. 相似文献

Inactivation of the 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes upon generation of intrinsic radical species.
Self-regulation of the 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes during catalysis was studied. Radical species as side products of catalysis were detected by spin trapping, lucigenin fluorescence and ferricytochrome c reduction. Studies of the complexes after converting the bound lipoate or FAD cofactors to nonfunctional derivatives indicated that radicals are generated via FAD. In the presence of oxygen, the 2-oxo acid, CoA-dependent production of the superoxide anion radical was detected. In the absence of oxygen, a protein-bound radical concluded to be the thiyl radical of the complex-bound dihydrolipoate was trapped by alpha-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone. Another, carbon-centered, radical was trapped in anaerobic reaction of the complex with 2-oxoglutarate and CoA by 5,5'-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO). Generation of radical species was accompanied by the enzyme inactivation. A superoxide scavenger, superoxide dismutase, did not protect the enzyme. However, a thiyl radical scavenger, thioredoxin, prevented the inactivation. It was concluded that the thiyl radical of the complex-bound dihydrolipoate induces the inactivation by 1e- oxidation of the 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase catalytic intermediate. A product of this oxidation, the DMPO-trapped radical fragment of the 2-oxo acid substrate, inactivates the first component of the complex. The inactivation prevents transformation of the 2-oxo acids in the absence of terminal substrate, NAD+. The self-regulation is modulated by thioredoxin which alleviates the adverse effect of the dihydrolipoate intermediate, thus stimulating production of reactive oxygen species by the complexes. The data point to a dual pro-oxidant action of the complex-bound dihydrolipoate, propagated through the first and third component enzymes and controlled by thioredoxin and the (NAD+ + NADH) pool. 相似文献

Highly purified branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex (BCOADC) oxidizes 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate and 2-oxobutyrate, with Km values of 67 microM and 18 microM respectively. The Vmax. for oxidation of these substrates is 27% and 53% respectively of that for 3-methyl-2-oxobutyrate. Highly purified pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) oxidizes 2-oxobutyrate (Km 100 microM; Vmax. 49% of that for pyruvate) but not 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate, whereas 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex will not utilize either 2-oxo acid as substrate. BCOADC kinase is inhibited by both 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate and 2-oxobutyrate, with half-maximal inhibition by 45 microM and 50 microM respectively. Phosphorylation of BCOADC in isolated adipocytes is inhibited by both 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate and 2-oxobutyrate, consistent with their inhibitory action of BCOADC kinase. Phosphorylation of PDC is decreased by 2-oxobutyrate, but not by 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate. 相似文献

Starvation does not change the actual activity per g of tissue of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase in skeletal muscles, but affects the total activity to a different extent, depending on the muscle type. The activity state (proportion of the enzyme present in the active state) does not change in diaphragm and decreases in quadriceps muscle. Liver and kidney show an increase of both activities, without a change of the activity state. In heart and brain no changes were observed. Related to organ wet weights, the actual activity present in the whole-body muscle mass decreases on starvation, whereas the activities present in liver and kidney do not change, or increase slightly. Exercise (treadmill-running) of untrained rats for 15 and 60 min causes a small increase of the actual activity and the activity state of the branched-chain 2-oxo acid dehydrogenase complex in heart and skeletal muscle. Exercise for 1 h, furthermore, increased the actual and the total activity in liver and kidney, without a change of the activity state. In brain no changes were observed. The actual activity per g of tissue in skeletal muscle was less than 2% of that in liver and kidney, both before and after exercise and starvation. Our data indicate that the degradation of branched-chain 2-oxo acids predominantly occurs in liver and to a smaller extent in kidney and skeletal muscle in fed, starved and exercised rats. 相似文献
