Guanine nucleotide activation of adenylate cyclase in saponin permeabilized glioma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have compared the regulation of adenylate cyclase activity in membrane fractions from C6 glioma cells and in monolayer cultures of C6 cells that had been permeabilized with saponin. Guanine nucleotides (GTP and GTP gamma S) and isoproterenol increase adenylate cyclase activity in C6 membranes and in permeabilized C6 cells. In C6 membranes, guanine nucleotides activate adenylate cyclase in the presence or absence of isoproterenol; in permeabilized cells, however, guanine nucleotides increase adenylate cyclase activity only in the presence of isoproterenol. We suggest that the properties of the permeabilized cells more closely resemble those of intact cells, and that some component which is present in permeabilized cells but is lost following cell disruption may be important for the normal regulation of adenylate cyclase activity. 相似文献

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall provides a semipermeable barrier that can retain intracellular proteins but still permits small molecules to pass through. When S. cerevisiae cells expressing E. coli lacZ are treated with detergent to extract the cell membrane, beta-galactosidase activity in the permeabilized cells is approximately 40% of the activity of the protein in cell extract. However, the permeabilized cells can easily be collected and reused over 15 times without appreciable loss in activity. Cell wall composition and thickness can be modified using different cell strains for enzyme expression or by mutating genes involved in cell wall biosynthesis or degradation. The Sigma1278b strain cell wall is less permeable than the walls of BY4742 and W303 cells, and deleting EXG1, which encodes a 1,3-beta-glucanase, can further reduce permeability. A short Zymolyase treatment can increase cell wall permeability without rupturing the cells. Encapsulating multiple enzymes in permeabilized cells can offer kinetic advantages over the same enzymes in solution. Regeneration of ATP from AMP by adenylate kinase and pyruvate kinase encapsulated in the same cell proceeded more rapidly than regeneration using a cell extract. Combining permeabilized cells containing adenylate kinase with permeabilized cells containing pyruvate kinase can also regenerate ATP from AMP, but the kinetics of this reaction are slower than regeneration using cell extract or permeabilized cells expressing both enzymes. 相似文献

A guanine nucleotide-sensitive adenylate cyclase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31

Adenylate cyclase in particulate extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae utilized either MnATP or MgATP as substrate. A mutation in the CYR1 gene, which codes for the catalytic unit of yeast adenylate cyclase (Matsumoto, K., Uno, I., and Ishikawa, T. (1983) Cell 32, 417-423), eliminated utilization of both MgATP and MnATP, indicating that a single enzyme was responsible for both activities. GTP and guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate stimulated yeast adenylate cyclase, while a GDP analog, guanosine-5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate), competitively inhibited this stimulation. Thermal inactivation studies distinguished putative guanine-nucleotide regulatory protein (N) from the catalytic unit (C) of yeast adenylate cyclase. Yeast N, which conferred guanine nucleotide regulation and the ability to utilize MgATP on yeast C, was quickly inactivated by incubation of particulate extracts at 30 degrees C. In contrast, yeast C, which apparently utilized MnATP as substrate in the absence of a functional N protein, resisted inactivation at 30 degrees C. These observations suggested that physically distinct protein components mediated the catalytic activity of yeast adenylate cyclase and its regulation by guanine nucleotides. These findings indicate a striking homology between the adenylate cyclase systems of S. cerevisiae and those of vertebrate cells. 相似文献

Pretreatment of isolated rat liver plasma membranes by washing with NaHCO3 buffer or by exposure to the chelator ethyleneglycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) with or without the ionophore A23187, produced a decrease in the sensitivity of adenylate cyclase (ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing) EC 4.6.1.1) to subsequent stimulation by NaF or guanosine 5′-(β-γ-imino)triphosphate (GPP(NH)P). Sensitivity to activation by the nucleotide could be restored by addition of the lyophilized and ashed wash or by addition of Ca2+, Mg2+ or Mn2+. The factor extracted from the membranes by these various treatments which was responsible for loss of stimulation was identified as Ca2+. Determination of the metal ion content of isolated membranes by atomic absorption spectrometry indicated that Ca2+ was the only divalent cation present in sufficient concentration to support persistent activation by either NaF or GPP(NH)P.Pretreatment of liver plasma membranes with trifluoperazine, which inhibits the action of Ca2+-dependent regulator protein in other enzyme systems, reduced GPP(NH)P activation of adenylate cyclase and caused marked depletion of membrane Ca2+. The effects of low concentrations (less than 100 μM) of the phenothiazine could be reversed totally by Ca2+ and partly by regulator protein. At higher concentrations of trifluoperazine, slight restoration of enzyme activation was seen with either agent. The hypothesis is presented that Ca+ interacts with the nucleotide (GTP or GDP) regulatory site(s) of the adenylate cyclase. This interaction may be regulator-protein-dependent and may be important in determining the sensitivity of the enzyme to nucleotide activation in vivo. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells from a stationary culture were permeabilized with 1% toluene, 4% ethanol and 0.075% Triton X-100. Not only sugars but also ATP, NAD+, magnesium and inorganic phosphate must be simultaneously added to initiate the ethanol fermentation. The optimal pH for the fermentation was between 6.9 to 7.0. Sucrose was a better substrate than glucose. Ethanol fermentation was greatly stimulated by the addition of 1 mM arsenate. Under this condition, permeabilized cells continued to produce ethanol for more than one hour at the rate of 0.141 mmol ethanol/min/mg protein. Methanol inhibited the fermentation with intact cells but did not inhibit the one using permeabilized cells. In contrast, propanol inhibited fermentations both with intact and permeabilized cells. 相似文献

We have examined the possible role of adenosine 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) in functions associated with the plasma membranes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Purified membranes from this source contained an adenylate cyclase which was insensitive to activation by fluoride or guanine nucleotides, only weakly responsive to changes of carbon source in the growth medium, and strongly stimulated by vanadate. They also contained at least two classes of receptor proteins for guanine nucleotides (as measured by binding of labeled 5'-guanylyl methylene diphosphate) with apparent dissociation constants equal to 1.0 x 10(-7) and 3 x 10(-6) M, a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating added histones, the activity of which was stimulated by cAMP, and cAMP receptors that may function as regulatory subunits for this kinase. Membrane proteins were also susceptible to phosphorylation by endogenous kinase(s), with polypeptides of apparent molecular weights equal to 160 x 10(3), 135 x 10(3), 114 x 10(3), and 58 x 10(3) as the major targets. Of these, the 114,000-molecular-weight polypeptide was probably identical to the proton-translocating ATPase of the membranes. However, the cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not appear to be involved in these reactions. Intact (rho+ or rho0) cells responded to dissipation of the proton electrochemical gradient across their plasma membranes by rapid and transient changes in their intracellular level of cAMP, as suggested earlier (J. M. Trevillyan and M. L. Pall, J. Bacteriol., 138:397-403, 1979). Thus, although yeast plasma membranes contain all the essential components of a stimulus-responsive adenylate cyclase system, the precise nature of the coupling device and the targets involved remain to be established. 相似文献

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, yeast RAS proteins are potent activators of adenylate cyclase. In the present work we measured the activity of adenylate cyclase in membranes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae which overexpress this enzyme. The response of the enzyme to added RAS2 proteins bound with various guanine nucleotides and their analogs suggests that RAS2 proteins are active in their GTP-bound form and are virtually inactive in their GDP-bound form. Also, active RAS2 protein is not inhibited by inactive RAS2, suggesting that the inactive form does not compete with the active form in binding to its effector. 相似文献

Diploid yeast cells that carry a part of the CYR1 gene deficient in a region coding for the N-terminal domain of adenylate cyclase were growth arrested and accumulated unbudded cells after inoculation into complete medium or nitrogen-free medium, but produced many cells which had one or more buds after incubation in sporulation medium. The cells incubated in sporulation medium had abnormal spindles which were free from the spindle pole bodies, larger in size, or frequently distributed in cytoplasm. The levels of cyclic AMP in these cells did not decrease to the wild-type level after transfer to the sporulation medium and remained at a constant level. The results suggest that the N-terminal domain of adenylate cyclase is associated with the regulatory function for sporulation. The environmental signals for sporulation may be transferred to the adenylate cyclase system through a factor that negatively interacts with the N-terminal domain of this enzyme. 相似文献

Tetraploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae carrying different dosages of the CYR1+ gene have been constructed. Adenylate cyclase activity observed in these tetraploid strains was proportional to the dosage of the active CYR1+ gene. Of the 57 mutants requiring adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate for growth at 35 degrees C, two allelic temperature-sensitive cyr1 mutants produced thermolabile adenylate cyclase. Crude extract and plasma membrane fraction of cyr1 mutant cells had no adenylate cyclase activity when assayed with GTP or 5'-guanylyl imidodiphosphate in the presence of Mn2+ or Mg2+. Plasma membrane and Lubrol-soluble plasma membrane fractions obtained from the temperature-sensitive cyr1 mutant were thermolabile compared with those from the wild-type strain. Three cyr1 mutants carried nonsense mutations susceptible to ochre (UAA) suppressors, SUP3 and SUP-o, and had no detectable level of adenylate cyclase activity. It is concluded that the cyr1 mutants carry lesions in the structural gene for adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

We studied the effects of GTP and its' analogues on PTH release in permeabilized parathyroid cells to assess their role in mediating the unusual inverse relationship between Ca2+ and PTH release in intact parathyroid cells. Both 10-5 M GppNHp and GTP gamma S, nonhydrolysable analogues of GTP, produce up to an 8-fold enhancement of PTH release, which is dose-dependent. This effect is specific for GTP analogues as we could not mimic it with other nucleotides. 10(-3) M GDP beta S, a nonhydrolysable GDP analogue, completely abolishes GppNHp-stimulated hormone release, providing further support for mediation of this effect by a guanine-nucleotide regulatory protein. In GppNHp-stimulated cells, PTH release is maximal at free [Ca2+] less than 200 nM and progressively decreases as the free [Ca2+] increases from 300 nM to 100 microM. These results suggest the presence of a guanine-nucleotide binding protein in the parathyroid cell that may play an important role in the regulation of PTH secretion by Ca2+ and perhaps other secretagogues. 相似文献

Control of cell division in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants defective in adenylate cyclase and cAMP-dependent protein kinase 总被引:35,自引:0,他引:35
Examination of the proportion of unbudded cells, terminal nuclear phenotype and DNA content of nuclei indicated that cyr1 mutants of yeast defective in adenylate cyclase activity were arrested at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The step of G1 arrest due to the cyr1 mutation preceded the step sensitive to the mating pheromone. The temperature-sensitive cyr1 cells did not continue growth, nor retain the capacity to conjugate at a restrictive temperature. The phenotypes of the cyr1 mutant mimicked those of nutritionally limited cells. The G1 arrest caused by the cyr1 mutation was overcome by the presence of a suppressor mutation, bcy1, that resulted in deficiency of a regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase and production of high level of cAMP-independent protein kinase. The bcy1 mutation suppressed G1 arrest caused by nutritional limitation, and continued bud emergence for multiple cycles without further nuclear division. The data suggest that cAMP works as a positive effector at the start of a yeast cell cycle via activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

Stimulation of basal adenylate cyclase activity in membranes of neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid cells by prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) is half-maximal and maximal (about 8-fold) at 0.1 and 10 microM respectively. This hormonal effect requires GTP, being maximally effective at 10 microM. However, at the same concentrations that stimulate adenylate cyclase in the presence of GTP, PGE1 inhibited basal adenylate cyclase activity when studied in the absence of GTP, by maximally 60%. A similar dual action of PGE1 was observed with the forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase, although the potency of PGE1 in both stimulating and inhibiting adenylate cyclase was increased and the extent of stimulation and inhibition of the enzyme by PGE1 was decreased by the presence of forskolin. The inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase by PGE1 occurred without apparent lag phase and was reversed by GTP and its analogue guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate at low concentrations. Treatment of neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid cells or membranes with agents known to eliminate the function of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein were without effect on PGE1-induced inhibition of adenylate cyclase. The data suggest that stimulatory hormone agonist, apparently by activating one receptor type, can cause both stimulation and inhibition of adenylate cyclase, and that the final result depends only on the activity state of the stimulatory GTP-binding protein, Gs. Possible mechanisms responsible for the observed adenylate cyclase inhibition by the stimulatory hormone PGE1 are discussed. 相似文献

Calmodulin regulation of adenylate cyclase activity 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Calmodulin-dependent stimulation of adenylate cyclase was initially thought to be a unique feature of neural tissues. In recent years evidence to the contrary has accumulated, calmodulin-dependent stimulation of adenylate cyclase now being demonstrated in a wide range of structurally unrelated tissues and species. Demonstration of the existence of calmodulin-dependent adenylate cyclase has in nearly all instances required the removal of endogenous calmodulin. It is not yet clear whether calmodulin-dependent and calmodulin-independent forms of the enzyme exist and whether some tissues (such as heart) lack a calmodulin-dependent adenylate cyclase. The presence of calmodulin appears largely responsible for the ability of the adenylate cyclase enzyme to be stimulated by submicromolar concentrations of calcium; it may not be relevant to the inhibition of the enzyme which occurs at higher concentrations of calcium. The physical relationship of calmodulin to the plasma membrane bound enzyme (or to the soluble forms of the enzyme) is not known nor is the mechanism of adenylate cyclase activation by calmodulin clear; current data suggest some involvement with both the N and C units of the enzyme. Finally, it is possible that in vivo calcium contributes to the duration of the hormone stimulated cyclic AMP signal. Thus current in vitro data suggest that optimal hormonal activation of calmodulin-dependent adenylate cyclase occurs at very low intracellular calcium concentrations, comparable to those found in the resting cell; conversely the enzyme is inhibited as intracellular calcium increases, following for example agonist stimulation of the cell. These higher calcium concentrations would then activate calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase. Such differential effects of calcium on adenylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase would ultimately restrict the duration of the hormone-induced cyclic AMP signal. 相似文献

Adipocyte membranes from diabetic (db/db) animals showed marked elevations in the levels of α-subunits for Gi-1 which were almost twice those in membranes from their normal, lean littermates. In contrast, no apparent differences were noted for levels of the α-subunits of Gi-2 and Gi-3, and 42 and 45 kDa forms of Gs and for G-protein β-subunits. Adenylate cyclase specific activity was similar in membranes from both normal and diabetic animals under basal conditions and also when stimulated by optimal concentrations of either NaF or forsckolin. In contrast, the ability of isoprenaline, glucagon and secretin to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity was greater in membranes from normal animals compared with membranes from diabetic animals. Receptor-mediated inhibition of adenylate cyclase, as assessed using PGE1 and nicotinate, was similar using membranes from both sources, but PIA (phenylisopropyladenosine) was a slightly more effective inhibitor in membranes from diabetic animals. A doubling in the expression of G1-1 thus appears to have little discernible effect upon the inhibitory regulation of adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Permeabilized cells of Kluyveromyces marxianus CCY eSY2 were tested as the source of lactase in the ethanol fermentation of concentrated deproteinized whey (65–70 g/l lactose) by Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCY 10–13–14. Rapid lactose hydrolysis by small amounts of permeabilized cells following the fermentation of released glucose and galactose by S. cerevisiae resulted in a twofold enhancement of the overall volumetric productivity (1.03 g/l × h), compared to the fermentation in which the lactose was directly fermented by K. marxianus. 相似文献
