Plasma membranes from bovine liver contain a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C (PLC) activity that is activated by guanine nucleotides. The G-proteins involved retained their ability to activate bovine brain PLC-beta 1 in a guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S)-dependent manner following extraction from the membranes with cholate and reconstitution with phospholipids. This reconstitution assay was used to purify the G-proteins by chromatography on heparin-Sepharose, DEAE-Sephacel, octyl-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite, Mono Q, and Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. Gel electrophoresis showed that two alpha-subunits with molecular mass of 42 and 43 kDa were isolated to a high degree of purity, together with a beta-subunit. Neither alpha-subunit was a substrate for pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation. Gel filtration of the final activity indicated an apparent molecular mass of 95 kDa, suggesting the presence of an alpha beta gamma heterotrimer. Immunological data revealed that the 42- and 43-kDa proteins were related to alpha-subunits of the Gq class recently purified from brain (Pang, I.-H., and Sternweis, P. C. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 18707-18712) and identified by molecular cloning (Strathmann, M., and Simon, M. I. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 87, 9113-9117). The activation of PLC-beta 1 by the purified G-protein preparation was specific for nonhydrolyzable guanine nucleotides, the efficacy decreasing in order GTP gamma S greater than guanylimidodiphosphate greater than guanylyl(beta,gamma-methylene)-diphosphonate. Half-maximal activation required 4 microM GTP gamma S suggesting that the affinity of the G-proteins for GTP analogues is low. The GTP gamma S-dependent activation of PLC-beta 1 required millimolar Mg2+ and was inhibited by guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) and by excess beta gamma-subunits. Aluminum fluoride also activated PLC-beta 1 in the presence of the G-proteins. The G-proteins were inactive toward PLC-gamma 1 or PLC-delta 1. In summary, these findings identify two G-protein activators of PLC-beta 1 that have the properties of heterotrimeric G-proteins and are members of the Gq class.  相似文献

Phosphoinositide phospholipase C (PLC) activity extracted from bovine liver plasma membranes with sodium cholate was stimulated by GTP gamma S-activated G alpha q/G alpha 11, whereas the enzyme from liver cytosol was not. The membrane-associated PLC was subjected to chromatography on heparin-Sepharose, Q Sepharose, and S300HR, enabling the isolation of the G-protein stimulated activity and its resolution from PLC-gamma and PLC-delta. Following gel filtration, two proteins of 150 and 140 kDa were found to correspond to the activatable enzyme. These proteins were identified immunologically as members of the PLC-beta family and were completely resolved by chromatography on TSK Phenyl 5PW. The 150-kDa enzyme was markedly responsive to GTP gamma S-activated alpha-subunits of G alpha q/G alpha 11 or to purified Gq/G11 in the presence of GTP gamma S. The response of this PLC was of much greater magnitude than that of the 140-kDa enzyme. The partially purified 150-kDa enzyme showed specificity for PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns4P as compared to PtdIns and had an absolute dependence upon Ca2+. These characteristics were similar to those of the brain PLC-beta 1. The immunological and biochemical properties of the 150-kDa membrane-associated enzyme are consistent with its being the PLC-beta isozyme that is involved in receptor-G-protein-mediated generation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate in liver.  相似文献

cDNAs corresponding to a previously uncharacterized phospholipase C were isolated from an HL-60 cell cDNA library. The cDNAs encodes a putative polypeptide of 1181 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 133,700 daltons. Comparison of the amino acid sequence of the predicted protein with those of five mammalian phospholipase C isoforms (PLC-beta 1, PLC-gamma 1, PLC-gamma 2, PLC-delta 1, and PLC-delta 2) revealed that the new enzyme is most closely related to PLC-beta 1 with an overall amino acid sequence identity of 48%. Thus, the new phospholipase C was named PLC-beta 2. The least similarity between PLC-beta 1 and PLC-beta 2 is apparent in the carboxyl-terminal 450 amino acids. Both PLC-beta 1 and PLC-beta 2 were purified from extracts of HeLa cells that had been transfected with vaccinia virus containing the corresponding cDNAs. Like other mammalian PLC isoforms, including PLC-beta 1, the catalytic activity of PLC-beta 2 was entirely dependent on Ca2+, and PLC-beta 2 preferred phosphatidyl-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate to phosphatidylinositol as substrate. Recently, the alpha subunit of the pertussis toxin-insensitive G-protein alpha q has been shown to activate PLC-beta 1 but not PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-delta 1. When alpha q purified from bovine brain was reconstituted with PLC-beta 1 or PLC-beta 2, no stimulation of PLC-beta 2 was observed in the presence of either AlF4- or guanosine 5-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), whereas PLC-beta 1 activity was enhanced markedly in the presence of AlF4- and less markedly but significantly in the presence of GTP gamma S. These results suggest that the receptor-dependent stimulation of PLC-beta 1 and that of PLC-beta 2 may require different G-protein alpha subunits. (see also accompanying article (Lee, C.

We have shown that progesterone (10 pM-10 nM) and progesterone covalently bound to bovine serum albumin (P-CMO BSA; 100 pM-1 microM) rapidly increased (within 5 s) the cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration and inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (InsP(3)) formation in confluent female and male rat osteoblasts via a pertussis toxin-insensitive G-protein. The activation of G-proteins coupled to effectors such as phospholipase C (PLC) is an early event in the signal transduction pathway leading to InsP(3) formation. We used antibodies against the various PLC isoforms to show that only PLC-beta1 and PLC-beta 3 were involved in the Ca(2+) mobilization and InsP(3) formation induced by both progestins in female and male osteoblasts, whereas PLC-beta 2, PLC-gamma 1, and PLC-gamma 2 were not. We also used antibodies against the subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins to show that the activation of PLC-beta 1 and PLC-beta 3 by both progestins involved the G alpha q/11 subunit, which was insensitive to pertussis toxin, whereas G alpha i, G alpha s, and G beta gamma subunits were not. The membrane effects were independent of the concentration of nuclear progesterone receptor, because the concentration of nuclear progesterone receptors was lower in male than in female osteoblasts. These data suggest that progesterone and P-CMO BSA, which does not enter the cell, directly activate G-protein leading to the very rapid formation of second messengers without involving the nuclear receptor.  相似文献

Two isozymes of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C were isolated and purified from salt-washed rabbit brain membranes. The membranes were extensively washed with isotonic, hypertonic and hypotonic buffers prior to solubilization with sodium cholate. Two isozymes (PLC-IV and PLC-beta m) were purified by a combination of DEAE-Sephacel, AH-Sepharose, heparin-Sepharose, AcA-34 gel filtration and mono-Q FPLC chromatographies. The major activity (PLC-beta m) was purified to homogeneity and had an estimated molecular weight of 155,000 on sodium-dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels (SDS-PAGE). This isozyme was immunologically identified as PLC-beta, an isozyme previously characterized in bovine brain cytosol and 2 M KCl membrane extracts. A second isozyme, PLC-IV, was immunologically distinct from PLC-beta and PLC-gamma and was purified to a stage where three protein bands (Mr 66,000, 61,000 and 54,000) on SDS-PAGE correlated with enzyme activity. The catalytic properties of the isozymes were studied and found to be very similar. The specific activities for PIP2 were greater than those obtained when PI was used. Both PLC-IV and PLC-beta m were Ca2(+)-dependent; near maximal stimulation for PI and PIP2 hydrolysis was observed at 0.5 microM free Ca2+. Sodium pyrophosphate and sodium fluoride stimulated phospholipase C activity of both isozymes. Polyclonal antibodies raised against PLC-beta m were able to inhibit carbachol and GTP gamma S stimulated phospholipase C activity in 2 M KCl washed rabbit cortical membranes. This suggests that in rabbit brain muscarinic cholinergic stimulation regulates PLC-beta m.  相似文献

Feedback regulation of phospholipase C-beta by protein kinase C   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Treatment of a variety of cells and tissues with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC) results in the inhibition of receptor-coupled inositol phospholipid-specific phospholipase C (PLC) activity. To determine whether or not the targets of TPA-activated PKC include one or more isozymes of PLC, studies were carried out with PC12, C6Bu1, and NIH 3T3 cells, which contain at least three PLC isozymes, PLC-beta, PLC-gamma, and PLC-delta. Treatment of the cells with TPA stimulated the phosphorylation of serine residues in PLC-beta, but the phosphorylation state of PLC-gamma and PLC-delta was not changed significantly. Phosphorylation of bovine brain PLC-beta by PKC in vitro resulted in a stoichiometric incorporation of phosphate at serine 887, without any concomitant effect on PLC-beta activity. We propose, therefore, that rather than having a direct effect on enzyme activity, the phosphorylation of PLC-beta by PKC may alter its interaction with a putative guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein and thereby prevent its activation.  相似文献

We have previously shown that soluble fractions obtained from human HL-60 granulocytes contain a phospholipase C which is markedly stimulated by the stable GTP analogue guanosine 5'-[3-O-thio]triphosphate (Camps, M., Hou, C., Jakobs, K. H. and Gierschik, P. (1990) Biochem. J. 271, 743-748]. To investigate whether this stimulation was due to a soluble alpha subunit of a heterotrimeric guanine-nucleotide-binding protein or a soluble low-molecular-mass GTP-binding protein, we have examined the effect of purified guanine-nucleotide-binding protein beta gamma dimers on the phospholipase-C-mediated formation of inositol phosphates by HL-60 cytosol. We found that beta gamma subunits, purified from bovine retinal transducin (beta gamma t), markedly stimulated the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate by this phospholipase C preparation. The stimulation of phospholipase C by beta gamma t was not secondary to a phospholipase-A2-mediated generation of arachidonic acid, was prevented by the GDP-liganded transducin alpha subunit and was additive to activation of phospholipase C by guanosine 5'-[3-O-thio]triphosphate. Beta gamma t also stimulated soluble phospholipase C from human and bovine peripheral neutrophils, as well as membrane-bound, detergent-solubilized phospholipase C from HL-60 cells. Stimulation of soluble HL-60 phospholipase C was not restricted to beta gamma t, but was also observed with highly purified beta gamma subunits from bovine brain. Fractionation of HL-60 cytosol by anion-exchange chromatography revealed the existence of at least two distinct forms of phospholipase C in HL-60 granulocytes. Only one of these forms was sensitive to stimulation by beta gamma t, demonstrating that stimulation of phospholipase C by beta gamma subunits is isozyme specific. Taken together, our results suggest that guanine-nucleotide-binding protein beta gamma subunits may play an important and active role in mediating the stimulation of phospholipase C by heterotrimeric guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins.  相似文献

We describe the reconstitution using purified proteins of the m1 muscarinic cholinergic pathway that activates phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C via the G protein Gq/11. Recombinant m1 muscarinic receptor was co-reconstituted in lipid vesicles with either hepatic Gq/11 or with cerebral alpha q/11 and beta gamma subunits. The rate of [35S]GTP gamma S binding to the reconstituted vesicles was stimulated 20-50-fold by agonist. Maximal receptor-catalyzed binding was 7 mol of GTP gamma S bound per mol of receptor. The m2 muscarinic receptor was a poor activator of Gq/11. The binding of [alpha-32P]GTP to [gamma-32P]GTP to m1/Gq/11 vesicles indicated that the receptor could maintain up to 40% of the total coupled Gq/11 in the GTP bound state. The rate of hydrolysis of bound GTP, 0.8 min-1, is consistent with the rate predicted from the GTP binding data but is 3-5-fold lower than rates reported for other trimeric G proteins. Agonist-stimulated photo-affinity labeling with gamma-(4-azidoanilido)-[alpha-32P]GTP indicated that the receptor catalyzed binding to both alpha q and alpha 11 with about equal efficiency. Receptor-catalyzed activation of Gq/11 by GTP gamma S, measured as the ability to activate purified phospholipase C-beta 1, paralleled receptor-catalyzed [35S]GTP gamma S binding. Co-reconstitution of receptor, Gq/11, and phospholipase C-beta 1 restored GTP gamma S-dependent carbachol-stimulated hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. The m1 receptor, Gq/11, and phospholipase C-beta 1 are thus sufficient to initiate the hormonal inositol trisphosphate/diacylglycerol signaling pathway without additional proteins.  相似文献

Phospholipase C (PLC) was purified from the membrane-depleted rat liver nuclei. About 60% of the total PLC-activity corresponded to beta1b isoform, 30% to PLC-gamma1 and less than 10% to PLC-delta1. PLC-beta1b and -gamma1 were found in the nuclear matrix, while PLC-delta1 was detected in the chromatin. Two peaks of an increase in the total PLC-activity were detected occurring at 6 and 20 h after partial hepatectomy. An early increase in PLC-beta1b activity in the nuclear matrix was associated with serine phosphorylation of the enzyme, while the later increase paralleled the increase in the amount of protein. The increase in the PLC-gamma1 activity measured at 6 and 20 h after partial hepatectomy was associated with tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme. The activity of PLC-delta1 and the amount of the protein found in the chromatin was increased only at 20 h after partial hepatectomy.  相似文献

The phospholipase C (PLC) pathway is the major signaling mechanism of photoactivation in invertebrate photoreceptors. Here we report the cloning of a cDNA encoding a 140-kDa retinal PLC that is uniquely expressed in squid photoreceptors. This cDNA encodes a protein with multiple distinct modular domains: PH, X and Y catalytic, and C2 domains, as well as G- and P-box motifs and two GTP/ATP binding motifs. The PLC was stimulated by activated squid Gq alpha but not by squid Gq beta gamma or mammalian beta gamma subunits. The PLC was inhibited by monophosphate, diphosphate and triphosphate nucleotides but not cyclic nucleosides. We also tested the ability of PLC-140 to regulate the GTPase activity of Gq alpha in the rhabdomeric membranes. Depletion of PLC-140 from the rhabdomeric membranes decreased the GTP hydrolysis but not GTP gamma S binding to the membranes. Reconstitution of purified PLC-140 with membranes accelerated Gq alpha GTPase activity by fivefold at a concentration of 2.5 microM. Our data suggest that PLC-140 plays an important role in both the activation and inactivation pathways of invertebrate visual transduction.  相似文献

Two GTP-binding proteins which can be ADP-ribosylated by islet-activating protein, pertussis toxin, were purified from the cholate extract of bovine lung membranes. Both proteins had the same heterotrimeric structure (alpha beta gamma), but the alpha subunits were dissociated from the beta gamma when they were purified in the presence of AlCl3, MgCl2 and NaF. The molecular mass of the alpha subunit of the major protein (designated GLu, with beta gamma) was 40 kDa and that of the minor one was 41 kDa. The results of peptide mapping analysis of alpha subunits with a limited proteolysis indicated that GLu alpha was entirely different from the alpha of brain Gi or Go, while the 41-kDa polypeptide was identical with the alpha of bovine brain Gi. The kinetics of guanosine 5'-[3-O-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S]) binding to GLu was similar to that to lung Gi but quite different from that to brain Go. On the other hand, incubation of GLu alpha at 30 degrees C caused a rapid decrease of GTP[gamma S] binding, the inactivation curve being similar to that of Go alpha but different from that of Gi alpha. The alpha subunits of lung Gi and GLu did not react with the antibodies against the alpha subunit of bovine brain Go. The antibodies were raised in rabbits against GLu alpha and were purified with a GLu alpha-Sepharose column. The purified antibodies reacted not only with GLu alpha but also with the 41-kDa protein and purified brain Gi alpha. However, the antibodies adsorbed with brain Gi alpha reacted only with GLu alpha, indicating antisera raised with GLu alpha contained antibodies that recognize both Gi alpha and GLu alpha, and those specific to GLu alpha. These results further indicate that GLu is different from Gi or Go. Anti-GLu alpha antibodies reacted with the 40-kDa proteins in the membranes of bovine brain and human leukemic (HL-60) cells. The beta gamma subunits were also purified from bovine lung. The beta subunit was the doublet of 36-kDa and 35-kDa polypeptides. The lung beta gamma could elicit the ADP-ribosylation of GLu alpha by islet-activating protein, increase the GTP[gamma S] binding to GLu and protect the thermal denaturation of GLu alpha. The antibodies raised against brain beta gamma cross-reacted with lung beta but not with lung gamma.  相似文献

Two G protein alpha subunits were detected in preparations of GTP gamma S-dependent, phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C-activating proteins from bovine liver membranes. Partial resolution of the two alpha subunits, of molecular mass 42 and 43 kDa, was achieved by Mono Q chromatography. Quantitation of the levels of each alpha subunit and reconstitution assays demonstrated that each possessed stimulatory activity towards the beta 1 isozyme of phospholipase C. Immunoblot analysis showed that the 42 kDa protein was immunologically related to alpha q, whereas the 43 kDa protein was related to alpha 11, another member of the Gq class. The data thus show that two different alpha subunits of the Gq class of G proteins stimulate phospholipase C-beta 1 Activity.  相似文献

In muscle, it has been established that guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]), a non-hydrolysable GTP analogue, elicits a rise in tension in chemically skinned fibres, and that pretreatment with Bordetella pertussis toxin (PTX) decreases GTP[S]-induced tension development [Di Virgilio, Salviati, Pozzan & Volpe (1986) EMBO J. 5, 259-262]. In the present study, G-proteins were analysed by PTX-catalysed ADP-ribosylation and by immunoblotting experiments at cellular and subcellular levels. First, the nature of the G-proteins present in neural and aneural zones of rat diaphragm muscle was investigated. PTX, known to catalyse the ADP-ribosylation of the alpha subunit of several G-proteins, was used to detect G-proteins. Three sequential extractions (low-salt-soluble, detergent-soluble and high-salt-soluble) were performed, and PTX was found to label two substrates of 41 and 40 kDa only in the detergent-soluble fraction. The addition of pure beta gamma subunits of G-proteins to the low-salt-soluble extract did not provide a way to detect PTX-catalysed ADP-ribosylation of G-protein alpha subunits in this hydrophilic fraction. In neural as well as in aneural zones, the 39 kDa PTX substrate, very abundant in the nervous system (Go alpha), was not observed. We then studied the nature of the G alpha subunits present in membranes from transverse tubules (T-tubules) purified from rabbit skeletal muscle. Only one 40 kDa PTX substrate was found in T-tubules, known to be the key element of excitation-contraction coupling. The presence of a G-protein in T-tubule membranes was further confirmed by the immunoreactivity detected with an anti-beta-subunit antiserum. A 40 kDa protein was also detected in T-tubule membranes with an antiserum raised against a purified bovine brain Go alpha. The presence of two PTX substrates (41 and 40 kDa) in equal amounts in total muscle extracts, compared with only one (40 kDa) found in purified T-tubule membranes, suggests that this 40 kDa PTX substrate might be involved in excitation-contraction coupling.  相似文献

Members of the phospholipase C-beta (PLC-beta) family of proteins are activated either by G alpha or G beta gamma subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. To define specific regions of PLC-beta 3 that are involved in binding and activation by G beta gamma, a series of fragments of PLC-beta 3 as glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins were produced. A fragment encompassing the N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and downstream sequence (GST-N) bound to G protein beta 1 gamma 2 in an in vitro binding assay, and binding was inhibited by G protein alpha subunit, G alpha i1. This PLC-beta 3 fragment also inhibited G beta gamma-stimulated PLC-beta activity in a reconstitution system, while having no significant effect on G alpha q-stimulated PLC-beta 3 activity. The N-terminal G beta gamma binding region was delineated further to the first 180 amino acids, and the sequence Asn150-Ser180, just distal to the PH domain, was found to be required for the interaction. Mutation of basic residues 154Arg, 155Lys, 159Lys, and 161Lys to Glu within this region reduced G beta gamma binding affinity and specifically reduced the EC50 for G beta gamma-dependent activation of the mutant enzyme 3-fold. Basal activity and G alpha q-dependent activation of the enzyme were unaffected by the mutations. While these basic residues may not directly mediate the interaction with G beta gamma, the data provide evidence for an N-terminal G beta gamma binding region of PLC-beta 3 that is involved in activation of the enzyme.  相似文献

Heterotrimeric GTP-dependent regulatory proteins (G-proteins) mediate modulation by many cell surface receptors. Activation of the G-proteins promotes dissociation of their alpha and beta gamma subunits. The similarity of behaviour of beta gamma subunits derived from a variety of G-proteins has led to their use as affinity reagents for the analysis of the more unique alpha subunits. The evolution of these uses is presented. One of the more insightful results was the isolation of a new class of G-protein alpha subunits (the alpha q subfamily) which have been shown to regulate the activity of a phospholipase C (PLC) specific for phosphatidylinositols. The experimental evidence leading to this conclusion is discussed. The activation by alpha q increases the apparent Vmax of the beta isoform of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PLC beta) and can be modulated by beta gamma subunits.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma by cAMP-dependent protein kinase   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
The mechanism by which cAMP modulates the activity of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) was studied. Elevation of cAMP inhibited both basal and norepinephrine-stimulated phosphoinositide breakdown in C6Bu1 cells which contain at least three PLC isozymes, PLC-beta, PLC-gamma, and PLC-delta. Treatment of C6Bu1 cells with cAMP-elevating agents (cholera toxin, isobutylmethylxanthine, forskolin, and 8-bromo-cAMP) increased serine phosphate in PLC-gamma, but the phosphate contents in PLC-beta and PLC-delta were not changed. In addition, cAMP-dependent protein kinase selectively phosphorylated purified PLC-gamma among the three isozymes and added a single phosphate at serine. The serine phosphorylation, nevertheless, did not affect the activity of PLC-gamma in vitro. We propose, therefore, that the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma by cAMP-dependent protein kinase alters its interaction with putative modulatory proteins and leads to its inhibition.  相似文献

Non-hydrolysable analogues of GTP, such as GTP gamma S and GMP-PNP, have previously been shown to inhibit the formation of constitutive secretory vesicles (CSVs) and immature secretory granules (ISGs) from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Using a cell-free system, we show here that the formation of these vesicles is also inhibited by [A1F4]-, a compound known to act on trimeric G-proteins. Addition of highly purified G-protein beta gamma subunits stimulated, in a differential manner, the cell-free formation of both CSVs and ISGs. ADP-ribosylation experiments revealed the presence of a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein alpha subunit in the TGN. We conclude that trimeric G-proteins regulate the formation of secretory vesicles from the TGN.  相似文献

PC12 cells contain at least three immunologically distinct phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes, PLC-beta, PLC-gamma, and PLC-delta. Treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) leads to an increase in the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma, but not of PLC-beta or PLC-delta. This increase can be seen in as little as 1 minute. The increased phosphorylation occurs on both serine and tyrosine residues, with the major increase being in the former. This result suggests the possibility that the NGF-dependent increase in phosphoinositide hydrolysis in PC12 cells is due to selective phosphorylation of PLC-gamma by serine and tyrosine protein kinases associated with the NGF receptor.  相似文献

Turkey erythrocyte membranes possess a phospholipase C that is markedly activated by P2Y-purinergic receptor agonists and guanine nucleotides. Reconstitution of [3H]inositol-labeled turkey erythrocyte membranes with guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (G-protein) beta gamma subunits resulted in inhibition of both AlF-4-stimulated adenylate cyclase and AlF-4-stimulated phospholipase C activities. The apparent potency (K0.5 approximately 1 microgram or 20 pmol of beta gamma/mg of membrane protein) of beta gamma subunits for inhibition of each enzyme activity was similar and occurred with beta gamma purified by different methodologies from turkey erythrocyte, bovine brain, or human placenta membranes. In contrast to the effect on AlF-4-stimulated activity, the stimulatory effect on phospholipase C of the P2Y-purinergic receptor agonist 2-methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate in the presence of guanine nucleotides was potentiated by 50-100% in a concentration-dependent manner by reconstitution of beta gamma subunits. beta gamma subunits did not affect the K0.5 value of 2-methylthioadenosine 5'-triphosphate for the stimulation of phospholipase C activity. These results indicate that beta gamma subunits influence phospholipase C activity in a concentration range similar to that necessary for regulation of adenylate cyclase activity and suggest the involvement of a G-protein possessing an alpha beta gamma heterotrimeric structure in coupling hormone receptors to phospholipase C.  相似文献

Cross-linking the antigen receptor on B cells results in a rapid increase in protein tyrosine kinase activity as detected by increased phosphorylation on tyrosine residues of multiple proteins. Although the identity of most of this substrates remains unknown, some have been proposed. One possible substrate of the antigen receptor-associated kinase is phospholipase C (PLC). Since multiple isoforms of PLC have been identified, we have studied which isoforms are targets of the antigen receptor. PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 but not PLC-beta 1 or PLC-delta 1 were detected in human B cells. Immunoprecipitation with antibodies against PLC-gamma 1 or PLC-gamma 2 and subsequent Western blotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies revealed that both PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 are tyrosine phosphorylated in stimulated but not in resting B cells. This was confirmed by experiments whereby B cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and subsequently blotted with antibodies against PLC-gamma 1 or PLC-gamma 2. Further, the specific protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors, tyrphostins, which block phospholipase-C activation and proliferation of B cells also inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation on both PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2. We conclude that both isoforms PLC-gamma 1 and PLC-gamma 2 are targets of the antigen receptor-associated protein tyrosine kinase.  相似文献
