Abstract Under conditions of derepression the yeast Candida wickerhamii formed a high-affinity glucose proton symport. Glucose and glucose analogues induced inactivation of the glucose proton symport and its interconversion into a low-affinity facilitated diffusion system. The specific inactivation rate increased with the concentration of the inactivating sugar and did not obey saturation kinetics. This dependence was still pronounced at sugar concentrations far above saturation of the glucose transport systems. This suggested that the inactivation and interconversion mechanism was triggered by interaction of the inactivating sugar with receptor sites located on the cell surface.  相似文献

Citric acid-grown cells of the yeast Candida utilis induced two transport systems for citric acid, presumably a proton symport and a facilitated diffusion system for the charged and the undissociated forms of the acid, respectively. Both systems could be observed simultaneously when the transport was measured at 25 degrees C with labelled citric acid at pH 3.5 with the following kinetic parameters: for the low-affinity system, Vmax, 1.14 nmol of undissociated citric acid s-1 mg (dry weight) of cells-1, and Km, 0.59 mM undissociated acid; for the high-affinity system, Vmax, 0.38 nmol of citrate s-1 mg (dry weight) of cells-1, and Km, 0.056 mM citrate. At high pH values (above 5.0), the low-affinity system was absent or not measurable. The two transport systems exhibited different substrate specificities. Isocitric acid was a competitive inhibitor of citric acid for the high-affinity system, suggesting that these tricarboxylic acids used the same transport system, while aconitic, tricarballylic, trimesic, and hemimellitic acids were not competitive inhibitors. With respect to the low-affinity system, isocitric acid, L-lactic acid, and L-malic acid were competitive inhibitors, suggesting that all of these mono-, di-, and tricarboxylic acids used the same low-affinity transport system. The two transport systems were repressed by glucose, and as a consequence diauxic growth was observed. Both systems were inducible, and not only citric acid but also lactic acid and malic acid may induce those transport systems. The induction of both systems was not dependent on the relative concentration of the anionic form(s) and of undissociated citric acid in the culture medium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae IGC4072 grown in lactic acid medium transported lactate by an accumulative electroneutral proton-lactate symport with a proton-lactate stoichiometry of 1:1. The accumulation ratio measured with propionate increased with decreasing pH from ca. 24-fold at pH 6.0 to ca. 1,400-fold at pH 3.0. The symport accepted the following monocarboxylates (Km values at 25 degrees C and pH 5.5): D-lactate (0.13 mM), L-lactate (0.13 mM), pyruvate (0.34 mM), propionate (0.09 mM), and acetate (0.05 mM), whereas apparently a different proton symport accepted formate (0.13 mM). The lactate system was inducible and was subject to glucose repression. Undissociated lactic acid entered the cells by simple diffusion. The permeability of the plasma membrane for undissociated lactic acid increased exponentially with pH, and the diffusion constant increased 40-fold when the pH was increased from 3.0 to 6.0.  相似文献

Xylose-utilising yeasts were screened to identify strains with high xylose transport capacity. Among the fastest-growing strains in xylose medium, Candida intermedia PYCC 4715 showed the highest xylose transport capacity. Maximal specific growth rate was the same in glucose and xylose media (mu(max)=0.5 h-1, 30 degrees C). Xylose transport showed biphasic kinetics when cells were grown in either xylose- or glucose-limited culture. The high-affinity xylose/proton symport system (Km = 0.2 mM, Vmax = 7.5 mmol h-1 g-1) was more repressed by glucose than by xylose. The less specific low-affinity transport system (K = 50 mM, Vmax = 11 mmol h-1 g-1) appeared to operate through a facilitated-diffusion mechanism and was expressed constitutively. Inhibition experiments showed that glucose is a substrate of both xylose transport systems.  相似文献

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, maltose is transported by a proton symport mechanism, whereas glucose transport occurs via facilitated diffusion. The energy requirement for maltose transport was evaluated with a metabolic model based on an experimental value of YATP for growth on glucose and an ATP requirement for maltose transport of 1 mol.mol-1. The predictions of the model were verified experimentally with anaerobic, sugar-limited chemostat cultures growing on a range of maltose-glucose mixtures at a fixed dilution rate of 0.1 h-1. The biomass yield (grams of cells.gram of sugar-1) decreased linearly with increasing amounts of maltose in the mixture. The yield was 25% lower during growth on maltose than during that on glucose, in agreement with the model predictions. During sugar-limited growth, the residual concentrations of maltose and glucose in the culture increased in proportion to their relative concentrations in the medium feed. From the residual maltose concentration, the in situ rates of maltose consumption by cultures, and the Km of the maltose carrier for maltose, it was calculated that the amount of this carrier was proportional to the in situ maltose consumption rate. This was also found for the amount of intracellular maltose. These two maltose-specific enzymes therefore exert high control over the maltose flux in S. cerevisiae in anaerobic, sugar-limited, steady-state cultures.  相似文献

Glucose-repressed cells of the yeast Pichia ohmeri IGC 2879 transported glucose by facilitated diffusion. Derepression led to the formation of a glucose/proton symport and the simultaneous reduction of the facilitated diffusion capacity by about 70%. Cycloheximide prevented this interconversion indicating its dependence on de novo protein synthesis (proteosynthetic interconversion). In buffer with 2% glucose the glucose/proton symport suffered irreversible inactivation while the facilitated diffusion system was simultaneously restored. This reverse interconversion process did not require de novo protein synthesis as indicated by its lack of sensitivity to cycloheximide (degradative interconversion). Thus the glucose/proton symport system appeared to consist of about 70% of the facilitated diffusion proteins turned silent through association with additional protein(s) the latter being sensitive to glucose-induced repression and glucose-induced inactivation.  相似文献

Cells of a glucose-PTS (phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase system)-negative mutant of Vibrio parahaemolyticus transport D-glucose in the presence of Na+. Maximum stimulation of D-glucose transport was observed at 40 mM NaCl, and Na+ could be replaced partially with Li+. Addition of D-glucose to the cell suspension under anaerobic conditions elicited Na+ uptake. Thus, we conclude that glucose is transported by a Na+/glucose symport mechanism. Calculated Vmax and Km values for the Na(+)-dependent D-glucose transport were 15 nmol/min/mg of protein and 0.57 mM, respectively, when NaCl was added at 40 mM. Na+ lowered the Km value without affecting the Vmax value. D-Glucose was the best substrate for this transport system, followed by galactose, alpha-D-fucose, and methyl-alpha-glucoside, judging from the inhibition pattern of the glucose transport. D-Glucose itself partly repressed the transport system when cells were grown in its presence.  相似文献

The energetics of the anaerobic gram-negative bacterium Zymomonas mobilis, a well-known ethanol-producing organism, is based solely on synthesis of 1 mol of ATP per mol of glucose by the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. When grown in the presence of glucose as a carbon and energy source, Z. mobilis had a cytosolic ATP content of 3.5 to 4 mM. Because of effective pH homeostasis, the components of the proton motive force strongly depended on the external pH. At pH 5.5, i.e., around the optimal pH for growth, the proton motive force was about -135 mV and was composed of a pH gradient of 0.6 pH units (internal pH 6.1) and a membrane potential of about -100 mV. Measurement of these parameters was complicated since ionophores and lipophilic probes were ineffective in this organism. So far, only glucose transport by facilitated diffusion is well characterized for Z. mobilis. We investigated a constitutive secondary glutamate uptake system. Glutamate can be used as a nitrogen source for Z. mobilis. Transport of glutamate at pH 5.5 shows a relatively high Vmax of 40 mumol.min-1.g (dry mass) of cells-1 and a low affinity (Km = 1.05 mM). Glutamate is taken up by a symport with two H+ ions, leading to substantial accumulation in the cytosol at low pH values.  相似文献

Summary Cells ofCandida shehatae repressed by growth in glucose- or D-xylose-medium produced a facilitated diffusion system that transported glucose (K s±2 mM,V max±2.3 mmoles g−1 h−1),d-xylose (K s±125 mM,V max±22.5 mmoles g−1 h−1) and D-mannose, but neither D-galactose norl-arabinose. Cells derepressed by starvation formed several sugar-proton symports. One proton symport accumulated 3-0-methylglucose about 400-fold and transported glucose (K s±0.12 mM,V max ± 3.2 mmoles g−1 h−1) andd-mannose, a second proton symport transportedd-xylose (K s± 1.0 mM,V max 1.4 mmoles g−1 h−1) andd-galactose, whilel-arabinose apparently used a third proton symport. The stoicheiometry was one proton for each molecule of glucose or D-xylose transported. Substrates of one sugar proton symport inhibited non-competitively the transport of substrates of the other symports. Starvation, while inducing the sugar-proton symports, silenced the facilitated diffusion system with respect to glucose transport but not with respect to the transport of D-xylose, facilitated diffusion functioning simultaneously with thed-xylose-proton symport.  相似文献

Regulation of transport of D-glucose and D-fructose was studied in Kluyveromyces marxianus grown in continuous culture. Both substrates could be transported by at least two different transport systems, low-affinity transport and high-affinity proton-sugar symport. The low-affinity transporter, specific for both glucose and fructose, was constitutively present and was apparently not regulated by carbon catabolite repression. Regulation of the activity of the glucose- and fructose-specific proton symport systems appeared to proceed mainly through catabolite repression. Activation of symport did not need the presence of specific inductor molecules in the medium. Nevertheless, the capacities of the proton-sugar symporters varied in cells grown on a wide variety of carbon sources. The possibility that the control of proton symport activity is related to the presence of specific intracellular metabolites is discussed.  相似文献

In vesicles from glucose-grown Pseudomonas putida, L-malate is transported by nonspecific physical diffusion. L-Malate also acts as an electron donor and generates a proton motive force (delta p) of 129 mV which is composed of a membrane potential (delta psi) of 60 mV and a delta pH of 69 mV. In contrast, vesicles from succinate-grown cells transport L-malate by a carrier-mediated system with a Km value of 14.3 mM and a Vmax of 313 nmol X mg protein-1 X min-1, generate no delta psi, delta pH, or delta p when L-malate is the electron donor, and produce an extravesicular alkaline pH during the transport of L-malate. A kinetic analysis of this L-malate-induced proton transport gives a Km value of 16 mM and a Vmax of 667 nmol H+ X mg protein-1 X min-1. This corresponds to a H+/L-malate ratio of 2.1. The failure to generate a delta p in these vesicles is considered, therefore, to be consistent with the induction in succinate-grown cells of an electrogenic proton symport L-malate transport system.  相似文献

Eadie-Hofstee plots of glycerol uptake in wild-type Saccharomyces cerevisiae W303-1A grown on glucose showed the presence of both saturable transport and simple diffusion, whereas an fps1delta mutant displayed only simple diffusion. Transformation of the fps1delta mutant with the glpF gene, which encodes glycerol transport in Escherichia coli, restored biphasic transport kinetics. Yeast extract-peptone-dextrose-grown wild-type cells had a higher passive diffusion constant than the fps1delta mutant, and ethanol enhanced the rate of proton diffusion to a greater extent in the wild type than in the fps1delta mutant. In addition, the lipid fraction of the fps1delta mutant contained a lower percentage of phospholipids and a higher percentage of glycolipids than that of the wild type. Fps1p, therefore, may be involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism in S. cerevisiae, affecting membrane permeability in addition to fulfilling its specific role in glycerol transport. Simultaneous uptake of glycerol and protons occurred in both glycerol- and ethanol-grown wild-type and fps1delta cells and resulted in the accumulation of glycerol at an inside-to-outside ratio of 12:1 to 15:1. Carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone prevented glycerol accumulation in both strains and abolished transport in the fps1delta mutant grown on ethanol. Likewise, 2,4-dinitrophenol inhibited transport in glycerol-grown wild-type cells. These results indicate the presence of an Fps1p-dependent facilitated diffusion system in glucose-grown cells and an Fps1p-independent proton symport system in derepressed cells.  相似文献

Summary Fructose utilization in laboratory-scale sucrose adjunct brewers wort fermentations, using the brewing strainS. cerevisiae IGC 4261, is predicted by a mathematical model based on the kinetic parameters of the membrane transport proteins which affect fructose uptake into the cell. These include biphasic fructose transport via a proton symport and the constitutive hexose facilitated diffusion system, plus the competitive inhibitory effect that glucose has on this latter component. Also the non-competitive inhibitory effects of a) maltose on fructose uptake via its proton symport and b) ethanol on biphasic fructose transport are incorporated within the model, as well as the inoculum size.  相似文献

Abstract Saccharomyces cerevisiae IGC4261, a brewing strain, transported fructose and sorbose but not glucose by a high-affinity, low-capacity proton symport. The symport was not subject to glucose repression and coexisted with the facilitated diffusion system for glucose, fructose, sorbose and other sugars. Transport by the symport was accumulative. The stoichiometry was one proton per molecule of fructose. Maltose acted as a non-competitive inhibitor.  相似文献

Summary Lactic acid grown cells of the yeast Candida utilis transported lactate by an accumulative electroneutral proton-lactate symport with a proton-lactate stoicheiometry of 1:1. The accumulation ratio at pH 5.5 was about twenty. The symport accepted the following monocarboxylates (K svalues at 25°C, pH 5.5 in brackets): d-lactate (0.06 mM), l-lactate (0.06 mM), pyruvate (0.03 mM), propionate (0.05 mM) and acetate (0.1 mM). The system was inducible and was subject to glucose repression. The affinity of the symport for lactate was not affected by pH over the range 3–6, while the maximum transport velocity was strongly pH dependent, its optimum pH being around pH 5. Undissociated lactic acid entered the cells by simple diffusion. The permeability for the undissociated acid increased exponentially with pH, the diffusion constant increasing 35-fold when the pH was increased from 3 to 5.5.  相似文献

DL-Malic acid-grown cells of the yeast Hansenula anomala formed a saturable transport system that mediated accumulative transport of L-malic acid with the following kinetic parameters at pH 5.0: Vmax, 0.20 nmol.s-1.mg (dry weight)-1; Km, 0.076 mM L-malate. Uptake of malic acid was accompanied by proton disappearance from the external medium with rates that followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics as a function of malic acid concentration. Fumaric acid, alpha-ketoglutaric acid, oxaloacetic acid, D-malic acid, and L-malic acid were competitive inhibitors of succinic acid transport, and all induced proton movements that followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics, suggesting that all of these dicarboxylates used the same transport system. Maleic acid, malonic acid, oxalic acid, and L-(+)-tartaric acid, as well as other Krebs cycle acids such as citric and isocitric acids, were not accepted by the malate transport system. Km measurements as a function of pH suggested that the anionic forms of the acids were transported by an accumulative dicarboxylate proton symporter. The accumulation ratio at pH 5.0 was about 40. The malate system was inducible and was subject to glucose repression. Undissociated succinic acid entered the cells slowly by simple diffusion. The permeability of the cells by undissociated acid increased with pH, with the diffusion constant increasing 100-fold between pH 3.0 and 6.0.  相似文献

Isolated Trichinella spiralis nurse cells transport a significantly greater amount of glucose/mg of protein than the normal skeletal muscle cell line (L6). V(max) and K(m) estimations revealed that nurse cells have a much higher saturation point than L6 cells for glucose. The effects of numerous physiological conditions (Na(+) concentration, pH, and temperature) on nurse cell glucose uptake were investigated. It was determined that sodium concentration had no effect on glucose uptake. Low (<6.5) and high (>7.3) pH and low (5 degrees C) temperatures significantly effected glucose uptake. The two hormones, insulin and epinephrine, appeared to have little, if any, influence on the rate of glucose uptake by nurse cells. Glucose uptake was inhibited in the presence of 6-carbon carbohydrates. The H(+)/glucose symport inhibitors, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) and Carbonyl cyanide 4-trifluoromethoxyphenlhydrazone (FCCP), and the facilitated diffusion inhibitor phloretin also inhibited glucose uptake. Oubain, a Na(+)/glucose symport inhibitor, did not inhibit glucose uptake. These data, in conjunction with Western blot analyses, revealed that the transport of glucose occurs via H(+)/glucose symport and facilitated diffusion, perhaps through the glucose transport proteins GLUT 1 and/or 4. It was also demonstrated that nurse cells are capable of synthesising glycogen. It appears that glycogen is in a constant state of flux and physiological conditions, such as glucose concentration, significantly influence the synthesis of this macromolecule. We conclude that these results are consistent with the hypothesis that nurse cells, at least maintained in vitro, are metabolically highly active but show significant divergence from normal muscle cells in several fundamental aspects of sugar metabolism.  相似文献
