Immunovirological studies suggest that human respiratory syncytial virus may well be composed of five structural proteins as are other members of the Paramyxoviridae family: the two external membrane glycoproteins H (90 000) and Fo (F1, 49 000; F2, 20 000; disulfide linked), the internal membrane protein M (34 000), the nucleoprotein N (42 000), and a protein (78 000) designated P that could be the equivalent of the polymerase of the morbillivirus and paramyxovirus genus. Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies showed, by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting, that the fusion protein carries neutralizing epitopes. One monoclonal antibody, which shows a high neutralizing titer, immunoblotted directly with the F1 fragment (49 000) of the fusion protein. Analysis in mice of the immunogenicity of the structural proteins separated on sodium dodecyl sulphate gels indicated that, under our conditions, only the fusion protein dimer Fo and its F1 fragment were capable of inducing neutralizing antibodies. 相似文献

利用H+-ATP酶复合体(也称ATP合成酶)中的Fo的色氨酸荧光,观察了复合体中F1结合ATP或ADP(酶蛋白与底物分子比为1:1)时,Fo的荧光猝灭常数的变化(用竹红菌乙作为膜区蛋白荧光的猝灭剂)结果表明F1结合ATP或ADP时Fo可得到不同的猝灭常数(Ksv),也就是Fo会产生不同的构象变化。加入二价金属离子起动ATP水解反应结束后:ATP+H2O→ADP+Pi,这时可以在Fo观察到与ADP加Mg2+时相同猝灭常数Ksv;用荧光强度随时间进程变化的实验可观察到F1水解过程中导致Fo构象变化的动力学过程。这些结果说明了H+-ATP酶复合体ATP合成的过程中F1与Fo之间存在着构象之间的通信与传递。 相似文献

In order to assess the role of thiol groups in the Fo part of the ATP synthase in the coupling mechanism of ATP synthase, we have treated isolated Fo, extracted from beef heart Complex V with urea, with thiol reagents, primarily with diazenedicarboxylic acid bis-(dimethylamide) (diamide) but also with Cd2+ and N-ethylmaleimide. FoF1 ATP synthase was reconstituted by adding isolated F1 and the oligomycin-sensitivity-conferring-protein (OSCP) to Fo. The efficiency of reconstitution was assessed by determining the sensitivity to oligomycin of the ATP hydrolytic activity of the reconstituted enzyme. Contrary to Cd2+, incubation of diamide with Fo, before the addition of F1 and OSCP, induced a severe loss of oligomycin sensitivity, due to an inhibited binding of F1 to Fo. This effect was reversed by dithiothreitol. Conversely, if F1 and OSCP were added to Fo before diamide, no effect could be detected. These results show that F1 (and/or OSCP) protects Fo thiols from diamide and are substantiated by the finding that the oligomycin sensitivity of ATP hydrolysis activity of isolated Complex V was also unaltered by diamide. Gel electrophoresis of FoF1 ATP synthase, reconstituted with diamide-treated Fo, revealed that the loss of oligomycin sensitivity was directly correlated with diminution of band Fo 1 (or subunit b). Concomitantly a band appeared of approximately twice the molecular weight of subunit Fo 1. As this protein contains only 1 cysteine residue (Walker, J. E., Runswick, M. J., and Poulter, L. (1987) J. Mol. Biol. 197, 89-100), the effect of diamide is attributed to the formation of a disulfide bridge between two of these subunits. These results offer further evidence for the proposal, based on aminoacid sequence and structural analysis, that subunit Fo 1 of mammalian Fo is involved in the binding with F1 (Walker et al. (1987]. N-Ethylmaleimide affects oligomycin sensitivity to a lesser extent than diamide, suggesting that the mode of action of these reagents (and the structural changes induced in Fo) is different. 相似文献

H+-ATPase of Escherichia coli. An uncE mutation impairing coupling between F1 and Fo but not Fo-mediated H+ translocation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The uncE114 mutation from Escherichia coli strain KI1 (Nieuwenhuis, F. J. R. M., Kanner, B. I., Gutnick, D. L., Postma, P. W., and Van Dam, K. (1973) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 325, 62-71) was characterized after transfer to a new genetic background. A defective H+-ATPase complex is formed in strains carrying the mutation. Based upon the genetic complementation pattern of other unc mutants by a lambda uncE114 transducing phage, and complementation of uncE114 recipients by an uncE+ plasmid (pCP35), the mutation was concluded to lie in the uncE gene. The uncE gene codes for the omega subunit ("dicyclohexylcarbodiimide binding protein") of the H+-ATPase complex. The mutation was defined by sequencing the mutant gene. The G----C transversion found results in a substitution of Glu for Gln at position 42 of the omega subunit in the Fo sector of the H+-ATPase. The substitution did not significantly impair H+ translocation by Fo or affect inhibition of H+ translocation by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Wild-type F1 was bound by uncE114 Fo with near normal affinity, but the functional coupling between F1 and Fo was disrupted. The uncoupling was indicated by an H+-leaky membrane, even when saturating levels of wild-type F1 were bound. Disassociation of F1 from Fo under conditions of assay did partially contribute to the H+ leakiness, but the major contributor to the high H+ conductance was Fo with bound F1. The F1 bound to uncE114 membranes exhibited normal ATPase activity, but ATP hydrolysis was uncoupled from H+ translocation and was resistant to inhibition by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The F1 isolated from the uncE114 mutant was modified with partial loss of coupling function. However, this modification did not account for the uncoupled properties of the mutant Fo described above, since these properties were retained after reconstitution of mutant membrane (Fo) with wild-type F1. 相似文献

The fusion glycoprotein (Fo) of Newcastle disease virus is cleaved at an intracellular site (Nagai et al., Virology 69:523-538, 1976) into F1 and F2. This result was confirmed by comparing the transit time of the fusion protein to the cell surface with the time course of cleavage of Fo. The time required for cleavage of half of the pulse-labeled Fo protein is ca. 40 min faster than the half time of the transit of the fusion protein to the cell surface. To determine the cell compartment in which cleavage occurs, use was made of inhibitors which block glycoprotein migration at specific points and posttranslational modifications known to occur in specific cell membranes. Cleavage of Fo is inhibited by carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone; thus, cleavage does not occur in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Monensin blocks the incorporation of Newcastle disease virus glycoproteins into virions and blocks the cleavage of the fusion glycoprotein. However, Fo cannot be radioactively labeled with [3H] fucose, whereas F1 is readily labeled. These results argue that cleavage occurs in the trans Golgi membranes or in a cell compartment occupied by glycoproteins quite soon after their transit through the trans Golgi membranes. The implications of the results presented for the transit times of the fusion protein between subcellular organelles are discussed. 相似文献

Topological and functional study of subunit h of the F1Fo ATP synthase complex in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Subunit h, a 92-residue-long, hydrophilic, acidic protein, is a component of the yeast mitochondrial F1Fo ATP synthase. This subunit, homologous to the mammalian factor F6, is essential for the correct assembly and/or functioning of this enzyme since yeast cells lacking it are not able to grow on nonfermentable carbon sources. Chemical cross-links between subunit h and subunit 4 have previously been shown, suggesting that subunit h is a component of the peripheral stalk of the F1Fo ATP synthase. The construction of cysteine-containing subunit h mutants and the use of bismaleimide reagents provided insights into its environment. Cross-links were obtained between subunit h and subunits alpha, f, d, and 4. These results and secondary structure predictions allowed us to build a structural model and to propose that this subunit occupies a central place in the peripheral stalk between the F1 sector and the membrane. In addition, subunit h was found to have a stoichiometry of one in the F1Fo ATP synthase complex and to be in close proximity to another subunit h belonging to another F1Fo ATP synthase in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Finally, functional characterization of mitochondria from mutants expressing different C-terminal shortened subunit h suggested that its C-terminal part is not essential for the assembly of a functional F1Fo ATP synthase. 相似文献

The amino acid sequence of respiratory syncytial virus fusion protein (Fo) was deduced from the sequence of a partial cDNA clone of mRNA and from the 5' mRNA sequence obtained by primer extension and dideoxysequencing. The encoded protein of 574 amino acids is extremely hydrophobic and has a molecular weight of 63371 daltons. The site of proteolytic cleavage within this protein was accurately mapped by determining a partial amino acid sequence of the N-terminus of the larger subunit (F1) purified by radioimmunoprecipitation using monoclonal antibodies. Alignment of the N-terminus of the F1 subunit within the deduced amino acid sequence of Fo permitted us to identify a sequence of lys-lys-arg-lys-arg-arg at the C-terminus of the smaller N-terminal F2 subunit that appears to represent the cleavage/activation domain. Five potential sites of glycosylation, four within the F2 subunit, were also identified. Three extremely hydrophobic domains are present in the protein; a) the N-terminal signal sequence, b) the N-terminus of the F1 subunit that is analogous to the N-terminus of the paramyxovirus F1 subunit and the HA2 subunit of influenza virus hemagglutinin, and c) the putative membrane anchorage domain near the C-terminus of F1. 相似文献

Secreted-in-xylem (SIX) proteins of the vascular wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici are secreted during infection of tomato and function in virulence or avirulence. F. oxysporum formae speciales have specific host ranges but the roles of SIX proteins in diverse hosts are unknown. We identified homologs of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici SIX1, SIX4, SIX8, and SIX9 in the genome of Arabidopsis infecting isolate Fo5176. A SIX4 homolog (termed Fo5176-SIX4) differed from that of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol-SIX4) by only two amino acids, and its expression was induced during infection of Arabidopsis. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants constitutively expressing Fo5176-SIX4 had increased disease symptoms with Fo5176. Conversely, Fo5176-SIX4 gene knock-out mutants (Δsix4) had significantly reduced virulence on Arabidopsis, and this was associated with reduced fungal biomass and host jasmonate-mediated gene expression, the latter known to be essential for host symptom development. Full virulence was restored by complementation of Δsix4 mutants with either Fo5176-SIX4 or Fol-SIX4. Thus, Fo5176-SIX4 contributes quantitatively to virulence on Arabidopsis whereas, in tomato, Fol-SIX4 acts in host specificity as both an avirulence protein and a suppressor of other race-specific resistances. The strong sequence conservation for SIX4 in F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and Fo5176 suggests a recent common origin. 相似文献

The soilborne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici causes tomato foot and root rot (TFRR), which can be controlled by the addition of the nonpathogenic fungus F. oxysporum Fo47 to the soil. To improve our understanding of the interactions between the two Fusarium strains on tomato roots during biocontrol, the fungi were labeled using different autofluorescent proteins as markers and subsequently visualized using confocal laser scanning microscopy. The results were as follows. i) An at least 50-fold excess of Fo47over F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici was required to obtain control of TFRR. ii) When seedlings were planted in sand infested with spores of a single fungus, Fo47 hyphae attached to the root earlier than those of F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici. iii) Subsequent root colonization by F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici was faster and to a larger extent than that by Fo47. iv) Under disease-controlling conditions, colonization of tomato roots by the pathogenic fungus was significantly reduced. v) When the inoculum concentration of Fo47 was increased, root colonization by the pathogen was arrested at the stage of initial attachment to the root. vi) The percentage of spores of Fo47 that germinates in tomato root exudate in vitro is higher than that of the pathogen F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici. Based on these results, the mechanisms by which Fo47 controls TFRR are discussed in terms of i) rate of spore germination and competition for nutrients before the two fungi reach the rhizoplane; ii) competition for initial sites of attachment, intercellular junctions, and nutrients on the tomato root surface; and iii) inducing systemic resistance. 相似文献

We have previously proposed that during assembly of the Escherichia coli F1F0 ATPase, the proton permeability of the Fo sector of the E. coli F1F0 ATPase is increased significantly by interactions with F1 subunits [Pati, S., & Brusilow, W.S.A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem 264, 2640-2644]. To test this model for Fo assembly, we purified F0 sectors synthesized in the presence and absence of F1 subunits and measured the abilities of these different preparations to bind purified F1 ATPase and to conduct protons when reconstituted into liposomes. The results of these studies demonstrated significant differences in proton-conducting abilities of the different Fo preparations. Fo sectors synthesized in the presence of F1 subunits were more permeable to protons than those synthesized in the absence of F1 subunits. 相似文献

In ATP synthase, proton translocation through the Fo subcomplex and ATP synthesis/hydrolysis in the F1 subcomplex are coupled by subunit rotation. The static, non-rotating portions of F1 and Fo are attached to each other via the peripheral "stator stalk", which has to withstand elastic strain during subunit rotation. In Escherichia coli, the stator stalk consists of subunits b2delta; in other organisms, it has three or four different subunits. Recent advances in this area include affinity measurements between individual components of the stator stalk as well as a detailed analysis of the interaction between subunit delta (or its mitochondrial counterpart, the oligomycin-sensitivity conferring protein, OSCP) and F1. The current status of our knowledge of the structure of the stator stalk and of the interactions between its subunits will be discussed in this review. 相似文献

The fusion (F) protein of human parainfluenza virus type 3 contains the tribasic cleavage site R-T-K-R, which was altered by site-directed mutagenesis. Wild-type F protein and various mutants were expressed by recombinant vaccinia viruses. The endogenous endoprotease present in CV-1 cells cleaves F variants containing the furin recognition motif R-X-K/R-R but not variants containing the dibasic site K-R or a single R at the cleavage site. A similar cleavage pattern was obtained when the subtilisin-like endoproteases Kex2 and furin were coexpressed with the wild type and mutants of the F protein. Peptidylchloromethylketone inhibitors mimicking basic cleavage sites prevent cleavage of the precursor Fo by the endogenous protease only when the furin-specific motif is present in the peptidyl portion. The data support the concept that furin is a cellular protease responsible for the activation of the F protein of human parainfluenza virus type 3. 相似文献

The protein product of the Methanococcus jannaschii MJ1256 gene has been expressed in Escherichia coli, purified to homogeneity, and shown to be involved in coenzyme F(420) biosynthesis. The protein catalyzes the transfer of the 2-phospholactate moiety from lactyl (2) diphospho-(5')guanosine (LPPG) to 7,8-didemethyl-8-hydroxy-5-deazariboflavin (Fo) with the formation of the L-lactyl phosphodiester of 7,8-didemethyl-8-hydroxy-5-deazariboflavin (F(420)-0) and GMP. On the basis of the reaction catalyzed, the enzyme is named LPPG:Fo 2-phospho-L-lactate transferase. Since the reaction is the fourth step in the biosynthesis of coenzyme F(420), the enzyme has been designated as CofD, the product of the cofD gene. The transferase requires Mg(2+) for activity, and the catalysis does not appear to proceed via a covalent intermediate. To a lesser extent CofD also catalyzes a number of additional reactions that include the formation of Fo-P, when the enzyme is incubated with Fo and GDP, GTP, pyrophosphate, or tripolyphosphate, and the hydrolysis of F(420)-0 to Fo. All of these side reactions can be rationalized as occurring by a common mechanism. CofD has no recognized sequence similarity to any previously characterized enzyme. 相似文献

The beta-subunit of the F1F0-ATPase is conserved in mycoplasmas 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Monospecific polyclonal antibodies that were generated against the beta-subunit of Escherichia coli ATPase (F1Fo) cross-reacted with a protein present in the cells of several Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma species. In Mycoplasma gallisepticum, the reactive protein was found almost exclusively in the cell membrane. This protein had an apparent molecular mass of approximately 52 kDa and could not be released from the membranes by repeated washings with either low or high salt solutions in the presence or absence of EDTA. The reactive protein was found to be catalytically active, exhibiting up to 44% of the total membrane-bound ATPase activity. We suggest that mycoplasmas possess a F1Fo-ATPase which undergoes structural modification(s) allowing its integration into the membrane. 相似文献

FoF1 ATPase is the universal protein responsible for ATP synthesis. The enzyme comprises two reversible rotary motors: Fo is either an ion 'turbine' or an ion pump, and F1 is either a hydrolysis motor or an ATP synthesizer. Recent biophysical and biochemical studies have helped to elucidate the operating principles for both motors. 相似文献
