Total respiration (vT) increased after exposure to UV, but a decrease in the capacity of SHAM-sensitive-alternative respiration (Valt) was accompanied by an increase in residual respiration (vres). The capacity for CN sensitive-cytochrome c respiration (Vcyt) was not inhibited by UV-A. After 4 h of irradiation of high-CO2-grown cells of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii with UV-A (2 μW. CM?2) in the presence of white light (300μE.m?2.s?1), the capacity of Vast was reduced from 10 to 4 μmol O2. mg?1Chl.h?1, a 60 % reduction. After a similar exposure to UV-A, the capacity of Valt in pea leaves was reduced from 13 to 5 μmol O2.g?1 fr wt.h?1. Exposure to UV-C was not inhibitory, but UV-B caused up to 25% inhibition of the Valt. Twenty to 48 h after exposure to UV-A radiation, the capacity of alternative respiration had recovered. UV-A inhibition of the alternative respiration was consistent with UV-A absorption by quinones, except that UV-A did not inhibit the cyt c pathway of electron transport that also involves the ubiquinones.  相似文献

Effects of cyanide and rotenone were examined on respiration (oxygen uptake) in mitochondria isolated from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) taproots at various stages of plant growth and development. In mitochondria from growing and cool-stored taproots, the ability of cyanide-resistant, salicylhydroxamic acid-sensitive alternative oxidase (AO) to oxidize malate, succinate, and other substrates of tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) was low and constituted less than 10% compared to predominant activity of the cytochrome oxidase pathway during State 3 respiration. Artificial aging of storage tissue (2-day incubation of tissue sections under high humidity at 20°C) substantially activated AO, but the highest capacity (V alt) of this pathway of mitochondrial oxidation was only observed in the presence of pyruvate and a reducing agent dithiothreitol. At the same time, mitochondria from growing taproots exhibited high rates of rotenone-resistant respiration, and these rates gradually declined during plant growth and development. The slowest rates of this respiration were observed during oxidation of NAD-dependent TCA substrates in mitochondria from dormant storage organ. The results are discussed in relation to significance of alternative electron transport pathways during growth and storage of sugar beet taproots.  相似文献

Osmotic dehydration of wheat seedlings in-0.5 MPa polyethylene glycol (PEG) solutions for 24, 48 and 72 h resulted in mild, moderate and severe water stress respectively in leaves, but only caused mild water stress in roots as reflected by the changes in relative water content (RWC). In response to the above water stress conditions, leaf total respiratory rate (V_t) decreased progressively, and the alternative pathway (AP) capacity (V_(alt)) and its actual operation activity (ρV_(alt)) decreased more severely. Water stress also led to continuous reduction in cytochrome pathway (CP) activity ((ρ' V_(cyt)) and different changes in the contribution of ρV_(alt) and ρ' V_(cyt) to V_t in leaves, with ρV_(alt)/V_t decreasing and ρ' V_(cyt)/V_t increasing. The change pattern of root V_t was similar to that of its RWC, while root V_(alt) and ρV_(alt) were found to decrease during the first 24 h of stress and thereafter recover to a level close to that of the control (O h). These data indicate that the alt  相似文献

Changes in active oxygen species (AOS) and respiration, with special reference to the alternative pathway of respiration, were followed in callus of tobacco (Nicotiana rusticaL.) during its growth and senescence. Two peaks of the total respiration rate were observed: the first one appeared on day 11, and the second one on day 19 (in senescing callus). H2O2and O 2contents increased gradually and reached the greatest values when callus senescence initiated (by day 11 and day 15, respectively), and then declined. The peaks of H2O2and O 2before the onset of senescence coincided with the peaks of capacity V altand activity V altof alternative pathway, respectively. After the onset of senescence, ·OH accumulated abundantly and maintained at a relatively high level from then on, accompanied by the decrease in both V altand V alt. The conclusion is that these three active oxygen species operated coordinately to regulate the alternative pathway during growth and senescence of tobacco callus, as confirmed by the callus treatments with AOS scavengers, exogenous ·OH, and inhibitors of antioxidant enzymes. The possibility of AOS-induced alternative pathway respiration at the initial senescence of tobacco callus is discussed.  相似文献

Green soybean cells (Glycine max L.) were grown in suspension culture on B5-medium containing various glucose concentrations (2%, 4% or 8% glucose and 2% glucose + 2% or 6% mannitol). Respiratory parameters have been determined in these cells in relation to growth.The length of the growth phase and the amount of dry weight produced increased with higher glucose concentrations. In cells cultured in the presence of 2% glucose, 4% glucose or 2% glucose + 2% mannitol, the activity of the cytochrome pathway (V cyt )and the capacity of the alternative pathway (V alt )were not significantly different. Also the contribution of the alternative pathway to total respiration was essentially the same.The glucose content of cells grown in 2% or 4% glucose was roughly equal, which might explain the absence of any effect of the increased glucose concentration on the respiratory parameters.In cells grown in 8% glucose or on 2% glucose + 6% mannitol, both the activity of the cytochrome pathway and the capacity of the alternative pathway were lower. High values of (approaching 1) were found in these cells, meaning that the alternative pathway is nearly fully operative. This is probably caused by the impairment of the cytochrome pathway due to the high osmotic value of the medium.ATP-production per batch per day has been calculated from oxygen uptake data, integrated and compared with cellular dry weight production to give values of 13-15.3 g dry weight produced mole ATP-1.The described experiments produce no direct evidence for a function of the alternative pathway as energy overflow in soybean cells. The higher alternative pathway activity in the lag phase might be attributed to the great demand for intermediates during this phase.Abbreviations FW Fresh Weight - BHAM Benzhydroxamate  相似文献

The uninhibited respiration of mitochondria, isolated from potato tuber discs (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Bintje) incubated on a callus-inducing medium at 28°C, is higher than that of mitochondria from tissue incubated at 8°C. This respiration is composed of a CN-sensitive and a CN-resistant part. The capacity of the CN-resistant alternative oxidase pathway is larger in mitochondria from 28°C tissue than in mitochondria from 8°C tissue (35% and 8% of uninhibited respiration, respectively). The alternative pathway is operative both in mitochondria from 28°C tissue and 8°C tissue.

The observed difference in uninhibited respiration, is not only caused by lower values of respiration via the alternative pathway in mitochondria from 8°C tissue, but also by lower values of respiration via the cytochrome pathway.

A positive correlation has been demonstrated between the incubation temperature (ranging from 4-37°C) and the relative capacity of respiration via alternative pathway in the mitochondria. Induction of alternative pathway is not directly correlated with growth (in terms of increase in fresh weight) of the potato tuber discs.

The respiration of fresh slices of preclimacteric avocado (Persea americana Mill. var. Hass) and banana (Musa cavendishii var. Valery) fruits is stimulated by cyanide and antimycin. The respiration is sensitive to m-chlorobenzhydroxamic acid in the presence of cyanide but much less so in the presence of antimycin. In the absence of cyanide the contribution of the cyanide-resistant pathway to the coupled preclimacteric respiration is zero. In uncoupled slices, by contrast, the alternate path is engaged and utilized fully in avocado, and extensively in banana. Midclimacteric and peak climacteric slices are also cyanide-resistant and, in the presence of cyanide, sensitive to m-chlorobenzhydroxamic acid. In the absence of uncoupler there is no contribution by the alternate path in either tissue. In uncoupled midclimacteric avocado slices the alternate path is fully engaged. Midclimacteric banana slices, however, do not respond to uncouplers, and the alternate path is not engaged. Avocado and banana slices at the climacteric peak neither respond to uncouplers nor utilize the alternate path in the presence or absence of uncoupler.

The maximal capacities of the cytochrome and alternate paths, Vcyt and Valt, respectively, have been estimated in slices from preclimacteric and climacteric avocado fruit and found to remain unchanged. The total respiratory capacity in preclimacteric and climacteric slices exceeds the respiratory rise which attends fruit ripening. In banana Valt decreases slightly with ripening.

The aging of thin preclimacteric avocado slices in moist air results in ripening with an accompanying climacteric rise. In this case the alternate path is fully engaged at the climacteric peak, and the respiration represents the total potential respiratory capacity present in preclimacteric tissue. The respiratory climacteric in intact avocado and banana fruits is cytochrome path-mediated, whereas the respiratory climacteric of ripened thin avocado slices comprises the alternate as well as the cytochrome path. The ripening of intact fruits is seemingly independent of the nature of the electron transport path.

Uncouplers are thought to stimulate glycolysis to the point where the glycolytic flux exceeds the oxidative capacity of the cytochrome path, with the result that the alternate path is engaged.

Twelve peptides, including eight conservative amino acid residues in the amino acid sequence of hydrophilic S helix of the alternative oxidase (AOX), were synthesized by solid-phase method. The polypeptide was coupled with α-chymotrypsinogen, and the antibodies were obtained through immunizing domestic rabbit by injecting this complex. By using these antibodies, which were raised to immunoreact with total proteins of purified mitochondria from different organs of mung bean seedlings, we find that there are two hybridizable AOX bands in mitochondria. Their molecular weights are about 35 and 38 ku, respectively. Moreover, the respiratory parameters of hypocotyl, true leaf and cotyledon of mung bean seedlings show that true leaf has the highest total respiration (Vt), alternative pathway (AP) capacity (Valt) and the activity of AP (ρValt) among the three organs. Vt andρV alt of cotyledon ranked the second. Hypocotyl has the lowest Vt andρV alt, but its Valt is higher than that of cotyledon. These results are consistent with the analysis of Western blotting of expression of AOX. The highest Vt andρV alt in true leaf are accompanied two hybridizable polypeptides of AOX protein, 35 ku and 38 ku respectively. The next is cotyledon Vt andρV alt with only one 38 ku hybridizable polypeptide of AOX protein. HypocotylV t andρV alt is the lowest and its immunoblotting band is similar to that of cotyledon, but the expressive amount of 38 ku protein is less than that of cotyledon. The results suggest that the 35 ku AOX may contribute mainly to true leafρV alt.  相似文献

Cyanide-resistant Respiration in Fresh and Aged Sweet Potato Slices   总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2       下载免费PDF全文
The respiration of fresh sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) slices is resistant to, and often stimulated by, cyanide and antimycin A. m-Chlorobenzhydroxamic acid (CLAM), a selective inhibitor of the alternate path, inhibits respiration in the presence of cyanide and has a limited inhibitory effect in the presence of antimycin A. Thus, a partial bypass of the antimycinsensitive site is indicated. Respiration rises 2-fold at best with slice aging, the increment being cytochrome-mediated. The cyanide-resistant pathway contributes neither to coupled fresh slice respiration nor to the induced respiration in the absence of inhibitors of the cytochrome path. In the presence of uncoupler, however, the alternate path is engaged both in fresh and aged slices. Vcyt, the maximal capacity of the cytochrome path, remains essentially the same with slice aging, whereas Valt decreases from 20 to 60 per cent. The induced respiration is readily accommodated by the potential cytochrome path capacity of fresh slices, which is realized on aging. Accordingly, there is no need to invoke mitochondrial proliferation in explanation of the development of the induced respiration. The engagement of the alternate path in response to uncoupler reflects substrate mobilization to a degree that substrate oxidation exceeds the electron transport capacity of the cytochrome path.

Fresh slices do not utilize exogenous substrates, whereas aged slices do so readily. Cerulenin, a specific inhibitor of fatty acid synthesis, prevents the development of the induced respiration as well as the capacity to oxidize exogenous substrates. It is suggested that lipid, and ultimately membrane, biosynthesis is central to the development of the induced respiration and the ability to use exogenous substrates, much as in potato.

The respiration of fresh potato (Solanum tuberosum, var. Russet Burbank) slices is predominantly cyanide-sensitive whether in the presence or absence of uncoupler. By contrast, the wound-induced respiration which develops in thin slices with aging is cyanide-resistant, and in the presence of cyanide, sensitive to chlorobenzhydroxamic acid, a selective inhibitor of the cyanide-resistant respiration. Titration of the alternate path in coupled slices with chlorobenzhydroxamic acid, in the presence and absence of cyanide, shows that the contribution of the cyanide-resistant pathway to the wound-induced respiration is zero. Similar titrations with uncoupled slices reveal that the alternate path is engaged and utilized extensively.

The maximal capacity of the cytochrome path (Vcyt) has been estimated in fresh and aged slices in the presence of the uncoupler carbonyl-cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone. It has been found that Vcyt of aged slices is but 30 to 40% higher than that of fresh slices. The results suggest that the bulk of the wound-induced respiration is mediated through the cytochrome pathway which exists in fresh slices in suppressed form, and which is fully expressed by slice aging. The engagement of the alternate path by uncouplers in aged slices is attributed to an increase in substrate mobilization, with the result that the electron transport capacity of the cytochrome chain is exceeded.

Treatment of intact potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers with acetaldehyde, ethanol or acetic-acid vapors led to a respiratory upsurge which was further increased when the volatiles were applied in 100% O2. Mitochondria from tubers held in 100% O2 (O2 control) displayed a substrate state, state 3, and state 4 in respiration, whereas in mitochondria from the volatile-treated tubers the respiratory rate of the different states was virtually indistinguishable. This respiratory pattern was companied by the development of a cyanide-resistant respiration since these mitochondria exhibited resistance to CN and sensitivity to CN+salicylhydroxamic acid. Acetaldehyde-treated potatoes showed a time-course development (up to 36 h) of cyanide resistance and concomitant sensitivity to salicylhydroxamic acid, indicating the onset of synthetic processes leading to the observed changes in mitochondrial respiration.Abbreviations V total respiration rate - Vcyt velocity of O2 uptake attributable to cytochrome oxidase - Valt velocity of O2 uptake attributable to the alternate oxidase - RCR respiratory control ratio - SHAM salicylhydroxamic acid Paper of the Journal Series, New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station, Cook College, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, N.J., USA  相似文献

During incubation of potato tuber discs ( Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Bintje) on a callus-inducing medium at 28°C, a high capacity of in vivo alternative pathway respiration develops (75% of uninhibited respiration is azide-resistant). When callus induction takes place at 8°C, only 45% of respiration is resistant to azide. In the lag phase of growth the activity of alternative pathway is low. during the exponential growth phase the activity reaches its maximal rate. This in vivo activity is of the same size at both culture temperatures. As a consequence a greater part of alternative pathway capacity is operating in uninhibited respiration during growth at low temperatures.  相似文献

Leaf slices sampled from winter rape plants ( Brassica napus L., var. oleifera L., cv. GórczaánAski), grown in cold (5°C), showed an increase in the dark respiration rate (measured at 25°C) as compared to slices cut from control plants (grown at 20/15°C). The effect of low temperature was most pronounced after 4 days of plant growth in the cold. Oxygen uptake by control slices was 60% inhibited by 1 m M KCN and was insensitive to 2.5 m M salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM). On the contrary, respiration of leaf slices from cold-pretreated plants was more resistant to cyanide (35% inhibition after 4 days of cold treatment) and was 30% inhibited by SHAM. The patterns of cold-induced changes in total respiratory activity and in the estimated activity of alternative pathway were similar. It seems that in leaf slices from plants grown in the cold, the cyanide-resistant, alternative pathway participates in oxygen uptake. Cold treatment of plants also brought about a 4-fold increase in the level of soluble sugars, which reached a maximum on day 4 of exposure to cold. Addition of sucrose to the incubation medium resulted in an immediate increase in oxygen uptake by slices with low endogenous sugar level. The respiration stimulated by sucrose addition was more resistant to cyanide than the basal respiration and it was inhibited by SHAM. It is concluded that the operation of the alternative pathway is responsible for the increased oxygen uptake by the cold-grown winter rape leaves and it may be induced by an increased sugar supply for respiratory processes.  相似文献

为了进一步了解光照下植物呼吸作用的内在机理以及呼吸作用和光合作用的关系,该文研究了在光照下菜豆(Phaseolus vulgaris)叶片抗氰呼吸与光合作用的关系。研究发现,将黑暗下生长的菜豆幼苗叶片转到光照下10 h,总呼吸、抗氰呼吸以及抗氰呼吸在总呼吸中的比例均逐步上升;光照也导致了叶片叶绿体光合放氧和CO2固定的出现及其速率的增加,但光合放氧和CO2固定速率的增加均滞后于抗氰呼吸的增加。将黑暗下生长的叶片转到光照下之前用抗氰呼吸的抑制剂水杨基氧肟酸(SHAM)处理叶片,发现用SHAM处理并没有导致叶片在光照下光合放氧和CO2固定速率的明显变化,这也提示了黑暗下生长的叶片转至光照的过程中,抗氰呼吸和光合作用没有产生偶联。进一步研究发现,在黑暗中对叶片施加短时间的光照能够增加抗氰呼吸在总呼吸中的比例,但短时间的光照对叶片光合CO2固定速率没有影响。这些结果表明了光照对抗氰呼吸的诱导可以不依赖于光合作用,光照可能是作为一种直接的信号去诱导抗氰呼吸。  相似文献

The effects of an osmoticum (mannitol) on growth, water content, respiration, and proline content in epicotyls of etiolated two-day-old (S2) and three-day-old (S3) pea (Pisum sativum L., cv. Flora-2) seedlings were studied. Water deficit was produced by placing plant roots in 0.6 M mannitol for 2–4 days. Control S3 epicotyls contained more water than S2 epicotyls; they were also characterized by more intense mitochondrial activity (in state 3, V 3) and by the higher value of the respiratory control (RC) due to a fourfold decrease of proportion of weakly phosphorylating cyanide-resistant respiration (CRR). After 2-day-long treatment with the osmoticum, S2 epicotyls lost more water than S3; water deficit in them attained 40% (28% in S3). In S3 treatment, epicotyls continued to grow at the almost unchanged rate, and the content of proline in them changed insignificantly, whereas in S2 seedlings epicotyl growth stopped, and proline accumulated in them. In the presence of the osmoticum, V 3 and RC reduced, but in S3 treatment they retained higher than in treatment S2. In mitochondria of S3 subjected to dehydration, the proportion of the cytochromic pathway of oxidation (V cyt) remained high, but the absolute values of the respiration rate reduced, whereas in S2 both these indices reduced and the proportion of CRR increased. After rewatering, indices of mitochondrial activity (the rate of substrate oxidation, RC value) were restored, but in S3 they were higher. The ratio of V cyt to CRR in S3 shifted toward CRR, whereas in S2, in contrast, it was shifted toward V cyt. When temperature during seedling growth and experiment performing was declined from 22°C (in control) to 18°C, growth of S3 epicotyls was retarded to the rate characteristic of S2 at 22°C. Under the effect of osmoticum, they, like S2, acquired a capacity to accumulate proline. Nevertheless, mitochondrial activity in such S3 turned out to be higher than in S2 grown at 22°C. The results obtained than, as distinct from traditional notes, 3-day-old pea seedlings manifested the higher tolerance to water deficit than 2-day-old seedlings.  相似文献

Incubation of potato tuber tissue discs on B5 medium supplemented with 1-naphtyl-acetic acid (NAA) led to callus formation, irrespective of the presence of kinetin; without NAA no callus formation occurred. Incubation in the presence of abscisic acid (ABA) reduced the increases in fresh weight and dry weight both in callus-forming and in non-callus-forming tissue. Mitochondrial respiration was lowered by ABA as well. The induction of the alternative, CN-resistant pathway was inhibited by the presence of ABA, especially in mitochondria from non-callus-forming tissue.The in vivo respiration of the callus-forming tissue was higher than that of the non-callus-forming tissue. Total respiration, cytochrome pathway activity and the capacity of the alternative pathway were all lowered in callus-forming tissue by treatment with ABA. The in vivo activity of the alternative pathway was low in all tissue types, especially after ABA-treatment. The slight stimulation by hydroxamates of the oxygen uptake of callus-forming tissue incubated on medium with NAA and ABA indicates the involvement of a hydroxamate-activated peroxidase in the oxygen uptake of this tissue; this peroxidase seemed not to participate in the oxygen uptake of the other tissues types.In non-callus-forming tissue the oxygen uptake of ABA-treated tissue was very low and almost completely resistant to the combined addition of inhibitors of both the cytochrome and the alternative pathway, indicating that the in vivo activity of the mitochondria in the oxygen uptake of the tissue was very low. The possible causes for this ABA-effect are discussed. In non-callus-forming tissue the treatment with ABA creates a situation which is comparable with that observed in intact potato tubers. This situation is characterized by a tissue respiration lower than that of the isolated mitochondria and an alternative pathway capacity that is low or absent.  相似文献

Total dark respiration (vt), cytochrome pathway (veyt), alternativepathway (valt) and residual (vres) respiration were measuredin Lemna gibba plants, by the use of pathway inhibitors. NaCNwas used to inhibit veyt and SHAM (salicylhydroxamic acid) toinhibit valt. Residual respiration (vres) was about 5% of vt.The effect of high (100 Pa) and low (0 Pa) carbon dioxide partialpressure ([CO2]) on vt, veyt and valt was determined from bothCO2 efflux and O2 uptake measurements. The higher [CO2] suppressedvt by about 30%. When respiration operated through the cytochromepathway only, in the absence of valt, it was suppressed by about12% as measured by the O2 uptake of submerged Lemna fronds orby about 40% as measured by CO2 efflux from floating fronds.The higher [CO2] treatment had only a small effect on respiration,when valt alone operated. There was no evidence of a specificsuppression of the valt pathway by high [CO2]. Succinic dehydrogenaseactivity of the mitochondria of roots of Medicago sativum wasreduced by 18%, when the mitochondria were pre-treated with120 as compared to 34 Pa [CO2]. There was no such effect oncytochrome c oxidase activity of mitochondria under the sameconditions. It is concluded that there is no evidence for the hypothesisthat the high [CO2] suppression of respiration is a result ofa CO2 effect on the non-phosphorylating alternative respirationpathway.Copyright 1995, 1999 Academic Press Lemna gibba, Medicago sativum, respiration, cytochrome pathway, alternative pathway, cyanide-insensitive pathway, carbon dioxide, succinic dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase  相似文献
