Characterization of the integral membrane polypeptides of rat liver peroxisomes isolated from untreated and clofibrate-treated rats. 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
We have characterized the integral membrane polypeptides of liver peroxisomes from untreated rats and rats treated with clofibrate, a peroxisome proliferator. Membranes, prepared by treatment of purified peroxisomes with sodium carbonate, were used to raise an antiserum in rabbits. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated the reaction of this antiserum with six peroxisomal integral membrane polypeptides (molecular masses, 140, 69, 50, 36, 22, and 15 kDa). Treatment of rats with the hypolipidemic drug clofibrate caused a 4- to 10-fold induction in the 69-kDa integral membrane polypeptide, while the other integral membrane polypeptides remained unchanged or varied to a lesser extent. The anti-peroxisomal membrane serum reacted with two integral membrane polypeptides of the endoplasmic reticulum which co-migrated with the 50- and 36-kDa integral membrane polypeptides of the peroxisome. Biochemical and immunoblot analyses indicated that these integral membrane polypeptides were co-localized to peroxisomes and endoplasmic reticulum. Immunoprecipitation of in vitro translation products of RNA isolated from free and membrane-bound polysomes indicated that the 22-, 36-, and 69-kDa integral membrane polypeptides were synthesized on free polysomes, while the 50-kDa integral membrane polypeptide was predominantly synthesized on membrane-bound polysomes. The predominant synthesis of the 50-kDa integral membrane polypeptide on membrane-bound polysomes raises interesting possibilities concerning its biosynthesis. 相似文献

The profile of polypeptides separated by SDS-PAGE from seed of major crop species such as pea(Pisum sativum) is complex,resulting from cleavage (processing) of precursors expressed from multiple copies of genes encoding vicilin and legumin,the major storage globulins.Translation in vitro of mRNAs hybridselected from mid-maturation pea seed RNAs by defined vicilin and legumin cDNA clones provided precursor molecules that were cleaved in vitro by a cell-free protease extract obtained from similar stage seed;the derived polypeptides were of comparable sizes to those observed in vivo.The feasibility of transcribing mRNA in vitro from a cDNA clone and cleavage in vitro of the derived translation products was established for a legumin clone,providing a method for determining polypeptide products of an expressed sequence.This approach will also be useful for characterising cleavage site requirements since modifications an readily be introduced at the DNA level. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on the in vitro translation of control and heat-shock poly(A)-rich RNA, obtained from Chlamydomonas reinhardi cells, incubated for 2 h at 25 degrees C respectively, was studied using the wheat-germ translation system. Incubation of the cells at 42 degrees C induces the synthesis of RNAs coding for several heat-shock proteins, including a 22-kDa major polypeptide as well as several proteins of 45-94 kDa, as demonstrated by run-off translation of polyribosomes isolated from intact cells. However, the high-molecular-mass heat-shock proteins are poorly translated in the wheat-germ system. The poly(A)-rich RNA coding for the 22-kDa heat-induced polypeptide has an apparent sedimentation coefficient higher than that expected from the molecular mass of its translation product, and was preferentially translated in vitro at temperatures above 31 degrees C as compared with pre-existing RNAs. Raising the temperature of translation, slightly inhibited (10%) the runoff translation of polyribosomes isolated from intact cells. However, when initiation was carried out in vitro for a short time at increasing temperatures and translation continued at 25 degrees C in the presence of aurintricarboxylic acid, the 22-kDa heat-shock polypeptides was preferentially translated. Aurintricarboxylic acid did not significantly inhibit incorporation of [35S]methionine when added to polyribosomes isolated from control or heat-shocked cells. From the above data we conclude that the translation of the 22-kDa heat-shock protein is controlled in vitro at the initiation level. 相似文献

Giardia lamblia: RNA translation products 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The in vitro translation products of two different human isolates of Giardia lamblia, WB 2x and GS/E, were compared in order to determine common protein constituents and to identify proteins recognized by the infected host. Multiple polypeptides ranging from 20 to 185 kDa were synthesized using a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free translation system and although most were identical some differences were noted. GS/E compared to WB 2x showed different polypeptides of 23.5, 24.5, 26.5, 27.5, 32.5, 33.5, and 41 kDa. Some of these polypeptides were antigenic and were immunoprecipitated with anti-isolate antiserum from experimentally infected humans and gerbils. The sera of humans experimentally infected with isolate GS/M recognized a 24-kDa polypeptide from WB 2x and 23.5- and 24.5-kDa polypeptides from GS/E in vitro translation products. Sera from WB 2x- and GS/E-infected gerbils recognized 74- and 24-kDa polypeptides present in WB 2x translation products and 23.5-, 24.5-, 32.5-, 33.5-, and 74-kDa polypeptides when GS/E in vitro translation products were used. These studies identified both unique and common antigens in two different Giardia isolates and they may be of use in the serologic diagnosis of giardiasis and characterization of Giardia isolates. 相似文献

A highly embryogenic cell suspension of alfalfa derived from a genotype sensitive to Fusarium oxysporum was successfully used for selection in vitro for resistance to culture filtrates of F. oxysporum, F. solani and F. avenaceum. Fifty two stable resistant cell lines were obtained and 500 plants regenerated from them. Among the 167 regenerants tested under glass there were 12–20% more plants with increased resistance to pathogens than in the group of plants regenerated from a control cell line. It was also found that the cell suspension cultures derived from genotypes of alfalfa with increased resistance to Fusarium spp. better tolerated filtrates of the pathogen. The results of a comparison of virulence of individual isolates of several species of Fusarium with toxicity of their filtrates to plants in vivo and in cell cultures were not unequivocal. 相似文献

An 80 000-Mr polypeptide, which bound to anti-legumin IgG, was detected among labelled polypeptides from cotyledons at late stages of development. When poly(A)-containing RNA from similar cotyledons was translated in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system, an 80 000-Mr polypeptide was also detected. Immunoprecipitation of translation products with anti-legumin IgG showed that, in addition to the major legumin precursor polypeptides of Mr approximately 60 000, the 80 000-Mr polypeptide was specifically immunoprecipitated. A cDNA clone, pCD32, was found to select an RNA coding for an 80 000-Mr polypeptide in hybrid-selection experiments. Additional minor polypeptides of Mr 63 000 and 65 000 were present in translation products of RNA selected by pCD32; all three polypeptides were immunoprecipitated by anti-legumin IgG. Thermal elution of RNAs bound to pCD32 showed that the affinity of pCD32 to the RNA coding for the 80 000-Mr polypeptide was greater than to the RNAs coding for the 63 000-Mr and 65 000-Mr polypeptides. In similar hybrid-selection experiments, another cDNA clone, pCD40, selected RNAs coding predominantly for polypeptides of Mr 63 000 and 65 000. A minor polypeptide of Mr 80 000 was also detected among these products; again all three polypeptides were immunoprecipitated by anti-legumin IgG. Peptide mapping revealed close similarities between the 80000-Mr polypeptide and the 63 000-Mr/65 000-Mr polypeptides obtained by translation of RNAs selected by pCD32. There were similarities also between maps obtained from translation products of RNA selected by pCD32 and those obtained from anti-legumin IgG immunoprecipitates of total translation products of poly(A)-containing RNA. 相似文献

In poliovirus-infected HeLa cells, the mechanism of protein synthesis initiation factor recognition of m7G cap groups on mRNA is impaired. Translation of capped host cell mRNAs is inhibited, whereas translation of uncapped poliovirus mRNA proceeds exclusively. The site of this defect has been localized to the cap-binding protein complex (CBPC). To elucidate the specific structural and functional defects of the CBPC following poliovirus infection, the CBPC and/or its polypeptide components were purified from uninfected and poliovirus-infected HeLa cells. The CBPC from uninfected cells consisted of tightly associated 24- and 220-kDa polypeptides; minor amounts of polypeptides of 40, 44, and 80 kDa also consistently co-purified with the p24/p220 cores. No evidence of a 50-kDa, eIF-4A-related polypeptide subunit of the CBPC was obtained. The CBPC from poliovirus-infected cells had undergone major structural alterations. The 220-kDa component was absent; antigenically related (100-130 kDa) degradation products were present instead. The 24-kDa component co-purified with the p220 degradation products, but other components were missing. The association of the infected cell CBPC components was quite labile compared with that demonstrated by the components of CBPC from uninfected cells. Differential stimulation of capped, but not uncapped mRNAs in a cell-free translation assay was demonstrated by unmodified CBPC. Conversely, modified CBPC from poliovirus-infected cells differentially stimulated in vitro translation of uncapped poliovirus mRNA but not capped mRNAs. The implications of these results for the mechanism of cap-independent translation are briefly discussed. 相似文献

The cell-free translation products of polyribosomal and post-polyribosomal mRNAs from the non-infective epimastigotes and the infective metacyclic trypomastigotes of the parasitic protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi were compared by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The result show that although many polypeptides are conserved, quantitative and qualitative differences are observed between both differentiation stages. The results also indicate the existence of post-polyribosomal mRNAs in equilibrium with polyribosomal counterparts. The immunoprecipitation of the in vitro synthesized polypeptides with chagasic human serum and the serum raised against an 85-kDa glycoprotein (P2-WGA), potentially involved in the process of T. cruzi penetration into mammalian cells, shows that while the chagasic serum recognizes the same 72-kDa, 68-kDa and 46-kDa polypeptides in both differentiation stages, the anti-P2-WGA serum immunoprecipitates a single 48-kDa polypeptide from in vitro translation products of metacyclic trypomastigotes. 相似文献

Summary Previous results have shown that some proteins secreted in the culture medium are involved with the formation of embryogenic
cells and can modify somatic embryo differentiation. Undifferentiated cell suspensions grown in the presence of 13 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and obtained from embryogenic and non-embryogenic callus were used to study these
events in sugarcane plants (cv.PR-62258). The cell suspension growth curves were determined and soluble proteins were extracted
from embryogenic and non-embryogenic callus and culture medium from cell suspensions. In embryogenic callus we detected 1.43
times more protein than in non-embryogenic callus and the electrophoretic protein patterns show specific polypeptides for
both callus types. In embryogenic callus we detected a cluster of four polypeptides in the range of 38–44 kDa and another
polypeptide of 23 kDa that were not observed in non-embryogenic callus. In nonembryogenic callus there is a 35-kDa polypeptide
that was not detected in embryogenic callus. In the case of extracellular proteins, the medium from embryogenic cell suspensions
contained four polypeptides of 41, 38, 34 and 28 kDa that were slightly detected in the medium from non-embryogenic cell cultures;
we also detected a band at 15 kDa that could not be observed in the medium from non-embryogenic cell suspensions. These results
suggest that the development of embryogenic callus and cell suspensions is related to the type and amount of intracellular
proteins in the callus cells and to the secreted proteins from these cells into the medium. 相似文献

The synthesis of 69 phage-specific polypeptides during the infection of Bacillus subtilis with bacteriophage SP82 was detected by pulse-labeling, one-dimensional electrophoresis, and autoradiography. SP82 virions were found to contain approximately 22 polypeptides, most of which were synthesized late in infection; evidence was obtained for the processing of the major virion protein. RNAs extracted at different times during infection were translated by using an Escherichia coli cell-free extract. Only smaller-molecular-weight peptides were produced efficiently in vitro; in the 9,000- to 60,000-molecular-weight range, 50 to 60% of the peptides synthesized in vivo were produced by translation of RNAs extracted from infected cells. Eight of the virion peptides were produced by in vitro translation of RNAs extracted from infected cells. RNAs were synthesized under defined conditions by RNA polymerase extracted from uninfected B. subtilis and by polymerases isolated from cells 8 and 20 min after infection with SP82. Translation of these RNAs yielded characteristic and different patterns of polypeptides. Nine of the 12 polypeptides produced by translation of RNAs synthesized by the host polymerase corresponded in mobility to peptides appearing in vivo in the 0 to 3 and 3 to 6 min intervals of pulse-labeling after infection; 12 of the 25 peptides synthesized from RNAs produced by polymerase extracted 8 min after infection corresponded in mobility to peptides detected in vivo 8 min after infection, and 15 of the 22 peptides directed by RNAs made by the polymerase isolated 20 min after infection corresponded to peptides present in vivo late in infection. Five of the peptides produced in vitro from the latter RNA corresponded to virion peptides. 相似文献

The keratin polypeptide patterns of two murine transplantable squamous cell carcinomas--originally induced by chemical means in the back skin and in the forestomach epithelium--are deficient in high molecular weight keratin subunits (greater than 60 kDa) invariably present in the corresponding normal tissues. In addition, the keratin polypeptide composition within the low molecular weight range showed further alterations with regard to the corresponding keratin subset of normal tissues in that both tumors expressed a 40-kDa protein, and a 56-kDa protein was selectively found in the forestomach tumor. A comparison of the charge properties of normal and tumor keratin polypeptides revealed that the two uppermost tumor proteins at 60 and 58 kDa were basic in nature whereas their normal molecular weight counterparts belonged to the acidic subset of the pattern. These tumor proteins also showed mutually identical peptide maps which, however, were considerably different from those of the normal proteins. The remaining tumor keratin subunits at 52, 50, 48, and 45 kDa, common also to the normal tissues, had retained their normal charge properties. In vitro translation of mRNA, isolated from both normal and tumor tissue, revealed that every tumor keratin polypeptide is encoded by its own mRNA. In contrast to normal keratinizing tissues, there is therefore no indication of post-translational protein processing in tumors. The in vitro translation products of tumor RNAs had all properties in common with the in vivo tumor proteins, thus indicating that every deviation of the tumor keratin spectrum from the normal state is determined at the mRNA level. 相似文献

To characterize the phenomenon of natural parthenocarpy in tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) two different approaches have been followed. At a developmental level, the ovary weights of three non-parthenocarpic lines and three near-isogenic parthenocarpic ( pat-2 ) lines were compared. Four developmental stages were considered: flower bud, preanthesis, anthesis and 4 days after anthesis. The parthenocarpic lines displayed ovary weights higher than their respective non-parthenocarpic lines from preanthesis to 4 days after anthesis. A molecular approach involved comparison of in vitro translation products from flower RNAs taken from the same developmental stages of non-parthenocarpic and near-isogenic parthenocarpic ( pat-2 and pat-3/pat-4 ) lines. Analysis by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the differential expression of a 30-kDa product in parthenocarpic materials from preanthesis to anthesis. These results suggest that the physiological and molecular events responsible for parthenocarpy begin at the preanthesis stage, before the flower is completely mature and receptive to pollination. The differential expression of this in vitro translation product in pat-2 and pat-3/pat-4 genotypes also suggests a common or confluent molecular basis in genetically controlled parthenocarpy. 相似文献

Total RNA was extracted from packed infective larvae of Trichinella spiralis by centrifugation through a 5.7 M caesium chloride cushion. Polyadenylated messenger RNA was separated from total RNA in an oligothymidylic acid-cellulose gel column. The in vitro translation of the mRNA, isolated from infective larvae of T. spiralis, was carried out using the rabbit reticulocyte cell-free translation system. Incorporation of 35S-methionine into the trichloroacetic acid precipitates in the lysate containing mRNA was 5 times greater than that in control. The translation products were analysed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) followed by autoradiography. Many polypeptides with molecular weights of less than 100,000 were synthesized in the lysate. A T. spiralis positive mouse serum was mixed with translation products to form antigen-antibody complexes, which were then absorbed by Staphylococcus aureus Cowan 1 strain and analysed by autoradiography of SDS-PAGE. An antigenic polypeptide with a molecular weight of 48,000 was demonstrated to react specifically with IgG antibody in T. spiralis positive mouse serum. T. spiralis larvae were cultured in methionine-free medium containing 35S-methionine, and antigenic polypeptides in somatic extracts and ES products were compared with those in translation products by autoradiography of SDS-PAGE. Several polypeptides in ES products and somatic extracts reacted specifically with IgG antibodies in positive serum. Especially the polypeptide with a molecular weight of 48,000 in ES products strongly reacted with IgG antibody in positive serum. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that five open reading frames exist in the nucleotide sequence of the 81.2- to 85.0-map-unit (m.u.) segment of plaque isolate E of Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV) DNA. The corresponding polypeptides are 9.8, 12.1, 36.6, 25.0, and 48.2 kDa in size (C. Oellig, B. Happ, T. Müller, and W. Doerfler, J. Virol. 63:1494, 1989), and we have investigated whether these proteins can be translated in infected cells. On subfragments of this viral DNA segment, mRNAs were selected from AcNPV-infected Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells at different times postinfection (p.i.). The in vitro translation of these RNAs in a rabbit reticulocyte-derived cell-free translation system yielded polypeptides of approximately 10 to 11, 12 to 14, 28, 36 to 38, and 48 to 50-kDa which were commensurate in size with the theoretically expected values. mRNAs for the 28- and 48- to 50-kDa proteins were identified by their translation products at 6 h p.i., and mRNAs for the 10- to 11-, 12- to 14-, and 36- to 38-kDa proteins were identified by their translation products at 12 h p.i. We constructed an AcNPV recombinant which carried in its polyhedrin gene the 3.9-kbp EcoRI-HindIII (81.8 to 84.8 m.u.) subfragment of the EcoRI J segment. Nucleotide sequence determinations revealed that the intact polyhedrin promoter lay adjacent to the additional 81.8- to 84.8-m.u. fragment in this recombinant. In S. frugiperda cells, which were infected with the recombinant AcNPV, a protein of 36 to 38 kDa was detected at 44 h p.i. in larger amounts than after infection with the nonrecombinant virus. However, there was no evidence for larger amounts of RNA derived from the 81.8- to 84.8-m.u. fragment in recombinant-infected cells. Recombinant-infected cells lacked the polyhedrin polypeptide. The synthesis of the 36- to 38-kDa polypeptide in recombinant- or AcNPV-E-infected S. frugiperda cells could be demonstrated by immunoprecipitation experiments. Peculiarly, this polypeptide was present in the cytoplasm as a 64-kDa glycoprotein. These data corroborate the notion that at least some of the open reading frames encoded in the 81.2- to 85.0-m.u. segment of AcNPV can be expressed in S. frugiperda cells. 相似文献

Optimization of protein synthesis in isolated higher plant chloroplasts. Identification of paused translation intermediates 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Protein synthesis in isolated, intact pea chloroplasts was optimized and compared to translation within chloroplasts in vivo. Many polypeptides labeled with [35S]methionine in isolated intact chloroplasts did not comigrate with polypeptides which were labeled within chloroplasts in vivo. Antibodies to the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase (EC 4.1.1.39) immunoprecipitated [35S]-labeled large subunit plus several lower-molecular-mass translation products of isolated chloroplasts. The lower-molecular-mass soluble translation products synthesized in pulse-labeled chloroplasts were converted into full-length large-subunit polypeptides during a subsequent chase period. This result suggests that many of the polypeptides observed in pulse-labeled chloroplasts are incomplete translation products which are the result of ribosome pausing at discrete points along chloroplast mRNAs. The pulse-chase technique was used to follow synthesis of the 34.5-kDa precursor of the psb A gene product and its processing to the mature 32-kDa polypeptide in isolated chloroplasts. Chloroplast translation profiles obtained using the pulse-chase assay were very similar to translation profiles obtained in vivo thus extending the utility of protein synthesis in isolated chloroplasts. 相似文献

We have cloned alfalfa nodule-specific cDNAs that code for leghemoglobin (Lb), glutamine synthetase (GS), and three unidentified nodulins. Hybrid-select translation of nodule RNA followed by 2-D gel electrophoresis showed that the Lb-specific cDNA corresponded to at least four Lb species of 12 kDa. One of the unidentified cDNA clones (N-32/34) corresponded to at least five polypeptides of 32-34 kDa; a second unidentified cDNA clone (N-14) corresponded to an individual polypeptide of 14 kDa. The in vitro translation product(s) of the RNA hybrid selected by the third unidentified cDNA clone (N-22) formed a single band at 22 kDa on a one-dimensional gel. Northern and dot blot analyses of RNA isolated from wild-type nodules and from defective nodules elicited by a variety of Rhizobium meliloti mutants showed that 1) RNAs corresponding to the Lb, nodule-specific GS, and three unidentified nodulins were coordinately expressed during the course of nodule development, and 2) all five nodulins were expressed in Fix- nodules that contained infection threads and bacteroids but were not expressed in nodules that lacked infection threads and intracellular rhizobia. 相似文献
