Recombinant plant plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase has been produced in a yeast expression system comprising a multicopy plasmid and the strong promoter of the yeast PMA1 gene. Western blotting with a specific monoclonal antibody showed that the plant ATPase is one of the major membrane proteins made by the transformed cells, accounting for about 1% of total yeast protein. The plant ATPase synthesized in yeast is fully active. It hydrolyzes ATP, pumps protons, and the reaction cycle involves a phosphorylated intermediate. Phosphorylation is possible from both ATP and Pi. Unlike the situation in plants, however, most of the plant ATPase is not expressed in the yeast plasma membrane. Rather, the enzyme appears to remain trapped at a very early stage of secretory pathway: insertion into the endoplasmic reticulum. This organelle was observed to proliferate in the form of stacked membranes surrounding the yeast nucleus in order to accommodate the large amount of plant ATPase produced. In this location, the plant ATPase can be purified with high yield (70 mg from 1 kg of yeast) from membranes devoid of endogenous yeast plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase. This convenient expression system could be useful for other eukaryotic membrane proteins and ATPases. 相似文献

Phosphorylation by [gamma-32P]ATP of proteins associated with the plasma membrane of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been studied both in vivo and in vitro. Although at least nine proteins are labeled in vivo, there is only one major protein labeled in vitro. This species with an apparent molecular weight of 114,000 has been identified as the plasma membrane Mg2+-ATPase. Phosphorylation of this enzyme occurs exclusively on serine residues. This is the first report that the proton-translocating ATPase of fungal plasma membranes is subject to phosphorylation by a protein kinase. 相似文献

When a plasma membrane-enriched fraction isolated from red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) was incubated in the presence of 40 micromolar [γ-32P] ATP, 40 micromolar MgSO4 at pH 6.5, a rapidly turning over phosphorylated protein was formed. Phosphorylation of the protein was substrate-specific for ATP, sensitive to diethylstilbestrol and vanadate, but insensitive to azide. When the dephosphorylation reaction was specifically studied, KCl was found to increase the turnover of the phosphorylated protein consistent with its stimulatory effect upon plasma membrane ATPase. The protein-bound phosphate was found to be most stable at a pH between 2 and 3 and under cold temperature, suggesting that the protein phosphate bond was an acyl-phosphate. When the phosphorylated protein was analyzed with lithium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis, a labeled polypeptide with a molecular weight of about 100,000 daltons was observed. Phosphorylation of this polypeptide was rapidly turning over and Mg-dependent. It is concluded that the phosphorylation observed represents a reaction intermediate of the red beet plasma membrane ATPase. 相似文献

A membrane fraction enriched with magnesium-dependent ATPase activity was isolated from sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) taproot by a combination of differential centrifugation, extraction with KI and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. This activity was inhibited by vanadate, N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and diethylstilbestrol, but was insensitive to molybdate, azide, oligomycin, ouabain, and nitrate, suggesting enrichment in plasma membrane ATPase. The enzyme was substrate specific for ATP, had a pH optimum of 7.0, but showed little stimulation by 50 mM KCl. The sugarbeet ATPase preparation contained endogenous protein kinase activity which could be reduced by extraction of the membranes with 0.1% (w/v) sodium deoxycholate. Reduction of protein kinase activity allowed the demonstration of a rapidly turning over phosphorylated intermediate on a Mr 105000 polypeptide, most likely representing the catalytic subunit of the ATPase. Phosphorylation was magnesium dependent, sensitive to diethylstilbestrol and vanadate but insensitive to oligomycin and azide. Neither the ATPase activity nor phosphoenzyme level were affected by combinations of sodium and potassium in the assay. These results argue against the presence of a synergistically stimulated NaK-ATPase at the plasma membrane of sugarbeet. 相似文献

The uptake of uracil by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is mediated by a specific permease encoded by the FUR4 gene. This uracil permease is a multispanning membrane protein that follows the secretory pathway to the plasma membrane. We have used in vivo pulse labeling and immunoprecipitation to show that the uracil permease is phosphorylated. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicates that the phosphorylation occurs on seryl residues. Experiments with temperature sensitive secretory mutants, blocked at successive steps of the secretory pathway, have established that the phosphorylation of the permease takes place at the plasma membrane. Under steady state conditions, Western immunoblotting showed multiple phosphorylated permease species. Their relative abundance appeared susceptible to metabolic conditions. This study is, therefore, a first step toward identifying a molecular mechanism involved in the post-translational control of a yeast transporter. 相似文献

Yeast cell surface growth is accomplished by constitutive secretion and plasma membrane assembly, culminating in the fusion of vesicles with the bud membrane. Coordination of secretion and membrane assembly has been investigated by examining the biogenesis of plasma membrane ATPase (PM ATPase) in secretion-defective (sec) strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. PM ATPase is synthesized as a approximately 106-kD polypeptide that is not detectably modified by asparagine-linked glycosylation or proteolysis during transit to the plasma membrane. Export of the PM ATPase requires the secretory pathway. In sec1, a mutant defective in the last step of secretion, large amounts of Golgi-derived vesicles are accumulated. Biochemical characterization of this organelle has demonstrated that PM ATPase and the secretory enzyme, acid phosphatase, are transported in a single vesicle species. 相似文献

Smooth muscle heavy meromyosin (HMM) is phosphorylated by the Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, i.e. protein kinase C, at three sites on each 20,000-dalton light chain. Phosphorylation of three sites also is observed with isolated 20,000-dalton light chain and HMM subfragment 1. The phosphorylation sites are serine 1, serine 2, and threonine 9. Threonine is phosphorylated most rapidly followed by either serine 1 or 2. Phosphorylation of the third site occurs only on prolonged incubation. Phosphorylation is a random process. HMM phosphorylated at two sites per light chain by protein kinase C can be dephosphorylated, as shown using two phosphatase preparations. Increasing levels of phosphorylation of HMM by protein kinase C causes a progressive inhibition of the subsequent rate of phosphorylation of serine 19 by myosin light chain kinase and causes a progressive inhibition of actin-activated ATPase activity of HMM, prephosphorylated by myosin light chain kinase. Inhibition of ATPase activity is due to a decreased affinity of HMM for actin rather than a change in Vmax. Previous results with HMM and protein kinase C (Nishikawa, M., Sellers, J. R., Adelstein, R. S., and Hidaka, H. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 8808-8814) examined effects induced by phosphorylation of the threonine residues. Our results confirm these and consider also the influence of higher levels of phosphorylation by protein kinase C. 相似文献

We have examined the insulin-dependent phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in the isolated plasma membranes of 3T3-F442A adipocytes. Phosphorylation of the insulin receptor is detected readily in the plasma membrane of these cells by two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and under nonreducing conditions, the predominant species of phosphorylated insulin receptor has an apparent molecular mass of 350,000 daltons with the beta-subunit (92,000 daltons) being phosphorylated. The phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in the isolated plasma membrane is absolutely dependent on insulin; tyrosine residues and, to a lesser extent, serine residues of the receptor are phosphorylated. Treatment of the plasma membrane with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) has two effects; 1) NEM prevents the formation of a larger form (greater than 350,000 daltons) of the phosphorylated insulin receptor. The formation of this larger form of the receptor involves sulfhydryl oxidation which occurs at 37 degrees C under nondenaturing conditions, but does not occur at 0 degrees C or at room temperature even in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. These results indicate that the larger form of the phosphorylated receptor can occur under physiological conditions and suggest that this process may be relevant to aggregation of the receptor-ligand complex. 2) Prior to treatment with insulin, NEM enhances the phosphorylation of the insulin receptor. Phosphopeptide analysis indicates that the site(s) of phosphorylation of the receptor is identical in the presence or absence of NEM. 相似文献

The Menkes protein (MNK; ATP7A) is a copper-transporting P-type ATPase that is defective in the copper deficiency disorder, Menkes disease. MNK is localized in the trans-Golgi network and transports copper to enzymes synthesized within secretory compartments. However, in cells exposed to excessive copper, MNK traffics to the plasma membrane where it functions in copper efflux. A conserved feature of all P-type ATPases is the formation of an acyl-phosphate intermediate, which occurs as part of the catalytic cycle during cation transport. In this study we investigated the effect of mutations within conserved catalytic regions of MNK on intracellular localization and trafficking from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Our findings suggest that mutations that block formation of the phosphorylated catalytic intermediate also prevent copper-induced relocalization of MNK from the TGN. Furthermore, mutations in the phosphatase domain, which resulted in hyperphosphorylation of MNK, caused constitutive trafficking from the TGN to the plasma membrane. A similar effect on trafficking was observed with a phosphatase mutation in the closely related copper ATPase, ATP7B, affected in Wilson disease. These findings suggest that the copper-induced trafficking of the Menkes and Wilson disease copper ATPases is associated with the phosphorylated intermediate that is formed during the catalysis of these pumps. Our findings describe a novel mechanism for regulating the subcellular location of a transport protein involving the recognition of intermediate conformations during catalysis. 相似文献

PMA1 expression, plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase enzyme kinetics, and the distribution of the ATPase have been studied in carbon-starved Candida albicans induced with glucose for yeast growth at pH 4.5 and for germ tube formation at pH 6.7. PMA1 expression parallels expression of the constitutive ADE2 gene, increasing up to sixfold during yeast growth and twofold during germ tube formation. Starved cells contain about half the concentration of plasma membrane ATPase of growing cells. The amount of plasma membrane ATPase is normalized prior to either budding or germ tube emergence by the insertion of additional ATPase molecules, while ATPase antigen appears uniformly distributed over the entire plasma membrane surface during both growth phases. Glucose addition rapidly activates the ATPase twofold regardless of the pH of induction. The turnover of substrate molecules per second by the enzyme in membranes from budding cells quickly declines, but the enzyme from germ tube-forming cells maintains its turnover of substrate molecules per second and a higher affinity for Mg-ATP. The plasma membrane ATPase of C. albicans is therefore regulated at several levels; by glucose metabolism/starvation-related factors acting on gene expression, by signals generated through glucose metabolism/starvation which are thought to covalently modify the carboxyl-terminal domain of the enzyme, and possibly by additional signals which may be specific to germ tube formation. The extended period of intracellular alkalinization associated with germ tube formation may result from regulation of proton-pumping ATPase activity coupled with higher ratios of cell surface to effective cytosolic volume. 相似文献

The vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase) plays a major role in organelle acidification and works together with other ion transporters to maintain pH homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. We analyzed a requirement for V-ATPase activity in protein trafficking in the yeast secretory pathway. Deficiency of V-ATPase activity caused by subunit deletion or glucose deprivation results in missorting of newly synthesized plasma membrane proteins Pma1 and Can1 directly from the Golgi to the vacuole. Vacuolar mislocalization of Pma1 is dependent on Gga adaptors although no Pma1 ubiquitination was detected. Proper cell surface targeting of Pma1 was rescued in V-ATPase-deficient cells by increasing the pH of the medium, suggesting that missorting is the result of aberrant cytosolic pH. In addition to mislocalization of the plasma membrane proteins, Golgi membrane proteins Kex2 and Vrg4 are also missorted to the vacuole upon loss of V-ATPase activity. Because the missorted cargos have distinct trafficking routes, we suggest a pH dependence for multiple cargo sorting events at the Golgi. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLB) at Ser16 and/ or Thr17 is believed to release its inhibitory effect on sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase. Ser16 phosphorylation of PLB has been suggested to cause a conformational change that alters the interaction between the enzyme and protein. Using computer simulations, the conformational sampling of Ser16 phosphorylated PLB in implicit membrane environment is compared here with the unphosphorylated PLB system to investigate these conformational changes. The results suggest that conformational changes in the cytoplasmic domain of PLB upon phosphorylation at Ser16 increase the likelihood of unfavorable interactions with SERCA in the E2 state prompting a conformational switch of SERCA from E2 to E1. Phosphorylation of PLB at Thr17 on the other hand does not appear to affect interactions with SERCA significantly suggesting that the mechanism of releasing the inhibitory effect is different between Thr17 phosphorylated and Ser16 phosphorylated PLB. 相似文献

Photoaffinity labeling of the active site of the yeast plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase has been studied with 2-azido-AMP and 2-azido-ATP. The ATPase activity of the enzyme decreases as the time of photolysis of the photoactive nucleotides in the presence of the enzyme increases. The covalent incorporation of [alpha-32P]2-azido-AMP into the enzyme and the inhibition of ATPase activity have comparable time courses. ATP protects the ATPase from incorporation of and photoinactivation by 2-azido-ATP or 2-azido-AMP. In the dark, 2-azido-ATP inhibits the ATPase at concentrations comparable to the apparent Michaelis constant for MgATP. After photolysis and proteolysis of the protein, three overlapping peptides labeled by the nucleotide analogues were purified by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography and sequenced. The peptides are derived from a region of the ATPase that is highly conserved in related cation pumps forming a phosphorylated intermediate during the catalytic cycle. Labeling with both nucleotide analogues occurs in peptides containing residues from aspartate 560 to lysine 566. The amino acids in this region conform to a consensus sequence for ATP binding derived from phosphofructokinase. 相似文献

The effect of a protonophoric uncoupler (CCCP) on the different cellular compartments was investigated in yeast grown aerobically on lactate. These cells were incubated in a resting cell medium under three conditions; in aerobiosis with lactate or glucose or in anaerobiosis with glucose as energetic substrate. For each condition, in vivo 31P NMR was used to measure pH gradients across vacuolar and plasma membrane and phosphorylated compound levels. Respiratory rate (aerobic conditions) and TPP+ uptake were measured independently. Concerning the polyphosphate metabolism, spontaneous NMR-detected polyphosphate breakdown occurred, in anaerobiosis and in the absence of CCCP. In contrast, in aerobiosis, polyphosphate hydrolysis was induced by addition of either CCCP or a vacuolar membrane ATPase-specific inhibitor, bafilomycin A1. Moreover, polyphosphates were totally absent in a null vacuolar ATPase activity mutant. The vacuolar polyphosphate content depended on two factors: vacuolar pH value, strictly linked to the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase activity, and inorganic phosphate concentration. CCCP was more efficient in dissipating the proton electrochemical gradient across vacuolar and mitochondrial membranes than across the plasma membrane. This discrepancy can be essentially explained by a difference of stimulability of each proton pump involved. As long as the energetic state (measured by NDP + NTP content) remains high, the plasma membrane proton ATPase is able to compensate the proton leak. Moreover, this ATPase contributes only partially to the generation of delta pH. The maintenance of the delta pH across the plasma membrane, that of the energetic state, and the cellular TPP+ uptake depend on the nature of the ATP-producing process.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The ATP phosphohydrolase (ATPase) activity of a corn (Zea mays L., WF9 × Mo17) root plasma membrane fraction was enriched almost 2-fold by selective extraction with 0.1% (w/v) deoxycholate. The detergent treatment solubilized about 30% of the total membrane protein and some ATP hydrolyzing activity that was not K+-stimulated, but the major portion of the ATPase activity could be pelleted with membranes. The properties of the ATPase associated with the detergent-extracted plasma membrane fraction were similar to those for the ATPase of the untreated plasma membrane fraction with respect to substrate specificity, pH optimum, kinetics with MgATP, ion stimulation, and inhibitor sensitivity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed only minor differences in protein composition resulting from the detergent treatment.
The plasma membrane fraction from corn roots contained an endogenous protein kinase activity. This was shown by the time course of phosphate incorporation and by the labeling of a number of protein bands on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The deoxycholate treatment removed measurable protein kinase activity and allowed the demonstration of a rapidly turning over covalent phosphorylated intermediate associated with the detergent-extracted plasma membrane fraction. The phosphorylated intermediate was present as a 100,000 dalton polypeptide and may represent the catalytic subunit of the plasma membrane K+-ATPase.

A new procedure for large-scale preparation of plasma-membrane-bound ATPase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is described. The crude membrane fraction is purified by selective extraction with three successive detergents: deoxycholate (0.25 mg/mg protein), Triton X-100 (0.25%) and lysophosphatidylcholine (1 mg/mg protein). These treatments extract the mitochondria and strip the plasma membrane. From 1 kg commercial baker's yeast, 200 mg of plasma membrane proteins are isolated in 2--3 days. Plasma-membrane-bound ATPase of specific activity of 10--13 mumol Pi x min-1 x mg protein-1 is obtained with a yield estimated to 60%. Dodecylsulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows three predominant polypeptides of Mr = 95000, 70000 and 56000 in the purified membrane fraction. The major polypeptide of Mr = 95000 identified as the ATPase subunit is phosphorylated by millimolar concentrations of ATP. The phosphorylated intermediate reaches the steady-state level in less than 100 ms and turns over very rapidly. It is hydrolyzed by hydroxylamine. Its formation is prevented by the ATPase inhibitors vanadate and Dio-9, a plasma-membrane ATPase inhibitor of unknown structure. At least four other membrane proteins are phosphorylated with much slower kinetics, presumably through the action of protein-kinase(s). 相似文献

A plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase preparation purified from porcine aorta was incubated with cGMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase) under the conditions under which dose-dependent stimulation of the enzyme by G-kinase was observed. Several proteins were phosphorylated, but two isoforms of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase with molecular masses of 135- and 145-kDa were not phosphorylated. The protein that was phosphorylated by G-kinase and identified in our previous study as the 135-kDa isoform of Ca(2+)-pump ATPase, on the basis of its almost identical mobility on SDS-PAGE, was found to be another protein with a molecular mass of 138 kDa. Fractionation of the enzyme preparation after incubation with G-kinase by a newly developed calmodulin affinity chromatographic method resulted in the separation of all the G-kinase substrates from the two isoforms of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase. These results suggest that the direct phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-pump ATPase does not occur in association with the stimulation of the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase by G-kinase. 相似文献

Immunoelectron microscopy of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells embedded in Lowicryl K4M has been used to localize invertase and plasma membrane (PM) ATPase in secretory organelles. sec mutant cells incubated at 37 degrees C were prepared for electron microscopy, and thin sections were incubated with polyclonal antibodies, followed by decoration with protein A-gold. Specific labeling of invertase was seen in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and secretory vesicles in mutant cells that exaggerate these organelles. PM ATPase accumulated within the same organelles. Double-immune labeling revealed that invertase and PM ATPase colocalized in secretory vesicles. These results strengthen the view that secretion and plasma membrane assembly are biosynthetically coupled in yeast. 相似文献

The negative charge of phosphatidylserine in lipid bilayers of secretory vesicles and plasma membranes couples the domains of positively charged amino acids of secretory vesicle SNARE proteins with similar domains of plasma membrane SNARE proteins enhancing fusion of the two membranes to promote exocytosis of the vesicle contents of secretory cells. Our recent study of insulin secretory granules (ISG) (MacDonald, M. J., Ade, L., Ntambi, J. M., Ansari, I. H., and Stoker, S. W. (2015) Characterization of phospholipids in insulin secretory granules in pancreatic beta cells and their changes with glucose stimulation. J. Biol. Chem. 290, 11075–11092) suggested that phosphatidylserine and other phospholipids, such as phosphatidylethanolamine, in ISG could play important roles in docking and fusion of ISG to the plasma membrane in the pancreatic beta cell during insulin exocytosis. P4 ATPase flippases translocate primarily phosphatidylserine and, to a lesser extent, phosphatidylethanolamine across the lipid bilayers of intracellular vesicles and plasma membranes to the cytosolic leaflets of these membranes. CDC50A is a protein that forms a heterodimer with P4 ATPases to enhance their translocase catalytic activity. We found that the predominant P4 ATPases in pure pancreatic beta cells and human and rat pancreatic islets were ATP8B1, ATP8B2, and ATP9A. ATP8B1 and CDC50A were highly concentrated in ISG. ATP9A was concentrated in plasma membrane. Gene silencing of individual P4 ATPases and CDC50A inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin release in pure beta cells and in human pancreatic islets. This is the first characterization of P4 ATPases in beta cells. The results support roles for P4 ATPases in translocating phosphatidylserine to the cytosolic leaflets of ISG and the plasma membrane to facilitate the docking and fusion of ISG to the plasma membrane during insulin exocytosis. 相似文献

Expression of the yeast plasma membrane [H+]ATPase in secretory vesicles. A new strategy for directed mutagenesis. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Secretory vesicles that accumulate in the temperature-sensitive sec6-4 strain of yeast have been shown to contain a vanadate-sensitive ATPase, presumably en route to the plasma membrane (Walworth, N. C., and Novick, P. J. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 163-174). We have now established this enzyme to be a fully functional form of the PMA1 [H+]ATPase, identical in its catalytic properties to that found in the plasma membrane. In addition, the secretory vesicles are sealed tightly enough to permit the measurement of ATP-dependent proton pumping with fluorescent probes. We have gone on to exploit the vesicles as an expression system for site-directed mutants of the ATPase. For this purpose, a sec6-4 strain has been constructed in which the chromosomal PMA1 gene is under control of the GAL1 promoter; the mutant pma1 allele to be studied is introduced on a centromeric plasmid under the control of a novel heat shock promoter. In galactose medium at 23 degrees C, the wild-type ATPase is produced and supports normal vegetative growth. When the cells are switched to glucose medium at 37 degrees C, however, the wild-type gene turns off, the mutant gene turns on, and secretory vesicles accumulate. The vesicles contain a substantial amount of newly synthesized, plasmid-encoded ATPase (5-10% of total vesicle protein), but only traces of residual wild-type PMA1 ATPase and no detectable mitochondrial ATPase, vacuolar ATPase, or acid or alkaline phosphatase. To test the expression strategy, we have made use of pma1-105 (Ser368----Phe), a vanadate-resistant mutant previously characterized by standard methods (Perlin, D. S., Harris, S. L., Seto-Young, D., and Haber, J. E. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 21857-21864). In secretory vesicles, as expected, the plasmid-borne pma1-105 allele gives rise to a mutant enzyme with a reduced rate of ATP hydrolysis and a 100-fold increase in Ki for vanadate. Proton pumping is similarly resistant to vanadate. Thus, the vesicles appear well suited for the production and characterization of mutant forms of the PMA1 [H+]ATPase. They should also aid the study of other yeast membrane proteins that are essential for growth as well as heterologous proteins whose appearance in the plasma membrane may be toxic to the cell. 相似文献
