The stability of spheroplasts from the osmotrophic yeast Saccharomyces rouxii was studied in buffered solutions of mannitol and glucose. The plasma membranes from cells grown in high glucose concentrations were more stable to osmotic lysis than were membranes from cells grown in lower glucose concentrations. Mannitol was a better osmotic stabilizer than glucose, except when the cells were grown in a high glucose concentration. Spheroplasts from a glucose tolerant-deficient mutant were much less stable than the corresponding spheroplasts from the parent strain, especially when suspended in glucose solutions. These results suggest an involvement of the plasma membrane in the glucose-tolerant mechanism of S. rouxii. 相似文献

Spheroplasts from Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC 366, enriched in phosphatidylethanolamine after growth in medium supplemented with 1 mM ethanolamine, were more resistant to osmotic lysis than were spheroplasts from cells grown in the presence of 1 mM choline and enriched in phosphatidylcholine. 相似文献

Lysozyme fails to penetrate through the outer membrane of stationary phase cells of Escherichia coli when it is simply added to suspensions of plasmolyzed cells. Lysozyme penetrates the outer membrane only when these cells are exposed to a mild osmotic shock in the presence of EDTA and lysozyme.In the presence of Mg2+, the outer membrane is stabilized sufficiently so that there is no lysozyme penetration during osmotic shock. If Mg2+ is added after an osmotic shock has been used to cause lysozyme to penetrate a destabilized outer membrane, the outer membrane is stabilized once again. In this case however, cells are converted to spheroplasts by the lysozyme which has gained access to the murein layer prior to the addition of Mg2+. Mg2+ stabilizes the outer membranes of these spheroplasts sufficiently so that they remain immune to lysis even in the absence of osmotic stabilizers such as sucrose.These results are discussed in terms of current information on the structure of the murein layer and the outer membrane. 相似文献

The effect of various physical and chemical parameters on the cytotoxic reaction was studied in a 51Cr-release assay in order to analyze the mechanism by which human blood mononuclear cells (MC) damage antibody-sensitized target cells infected with herpes simplex virus. Centrifugation of the target cell-MC mixture consistently increased the velocity of the reaction. In addition, uncentrifuged target cell-MC cultures showed a sigmoidal kinetic curve of 51Cr release with an initial lag phase of at least 10 min, whereas 51Cr release in centrifuged cultures followed a linear pattern with time without an initial lag. These findings indicate that direct contact between target and effector cells is necessary for cytotoxicity to occur. The reaction as a whole was temperature dependent, proceeding well at 37 °C and not at all at 4 °C. Incubation of the MC at 46 °C for 10 min abolished their cytotoxic potential without affecting their viability; similar heating of the target cells did not affect their background isotope release or sensitivity to the lytic process. Heating target cell-MC mixtures at 46 °C for 10 min thus provided a tool by which the temporal relationship between the mounting of “lethal hits” and specific isotope release, or cell lysis, could be studied. Using this technique, we observed virtually simultaneous occurrence of lethal hits and cell lysis, measured at various intervals between 10 and 360 min postincubation. Likewise, we were unable to demonstrate a transient period of increased osmotic fragility in target cells after contact with MC but before actual cell lysis. Taken together, these findings imply either that cell lysis, as indicated by 51Cr release, results from a sudden nonosmotic injury to the target cell membrane or, alternatively, osmotic damage leading to 51Cr release occurs too rapidly to be detected by the methods employed in this study. These findings imply either a qualitative or a quantitative difference between antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) mediated by K cells and cytotoxicity mediated by sensitized T cells.The cytotoxic reaction was completely inhibited by 10 mM EDTA and did not occur in a Ca2+- and Mg2+-free medium. Neither Ca2+ nor Mg2+ alone produced as much cytotoxicity as the two cations in tandem; in addition, when added to the culture medium in suboptimal amounts, the two cations were either additive or synergistic. These observations suggest that both cations are necessary in ADCC and also that there may be separate Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent events in the lytic pathway. 相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane vesicles (SRV), isolated from the abdominal muscle of Maine lobsters, were put through a freeze-thaw cycle in order to study membrane freezing damage on a molecular basis, The major membrane protein in SRV is a (Ca2+ − Mg2+) ATPase capable of accumulating Ca2+ with the concomitant hydrolysis of ATP, After being frozen and thawed in the presence of NaCl, the SRV showed an increased ATPase activity and a decreased ability to accumulate Ca2+. The degree of increased ATPase activity and decreased Ca2+ accumulation was dependent upon the NaCl concentration (damage increased with increased NaCl concentration) and cooling rate (damage was only observed at slow cooling rates, i.e., less than 10 °C/min). Slow thawing rates also increased the amount of damage.The freeze-thaw damage of the SRV membranes is probably not due to osmotic shock, since the vesicles are quite resistant to osmotic stress and are highly permeable to small molecules and monovalent ions. Incubation of the SRV in 2
NaCl at 22 °C has no effect on Ca2+ accumulation whereas freezing in 0.25
NaCl totally abolishes their ability to take up Ca2+. Thus, a combination of salt and low temperature is necessary for damage. The freeze-thaw damage can be largely prevented by the addition of DMSO, glycerol, or PVP. The factors above have implications for the storage of tissue or membranes for subsequent analysis of membrane-bound enzymes. The SRV mimic the behavior of cells in their response to cooling and thawing rates, salts and cryoprotectants. 相似文献

A specific effect of cardiolipin on fluidity of mitochondrial membranes was demonstrated in Tetrahymena cells acclimated to a lower temperature in the previous report (Yamauchi, T., Ohki, K., Maruyama, H. and Nozawa, Y. (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 649, 385–392). This study was further confirmed by the experiment using fluorescence polarization of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). Anisotropy of DPH for microsomal and pellicular total lipids from Tetrahymena cells showed that membrane fluidity of these lipids increased gradually as the cells were incubated at 15°C after the shift down of growth temperature from 39°C. However, membrane fluidity of mitochondrial total lipids was kept constant up to 10 h. This finding is compatible with the result obtained using spin probe in the previous report. Additionally, the break-point temperature of DPH anisotropy was not changed in mitochondrial lipids whereas those temperatures in pellicular and microsomal lipids lowered during the incubation at 15°C. Interaction between cardiolipins and various phospholipids, which were isolated from Tetrahymena cells grown at 39°C or 15°C and synthesized chemically, was investigated extensively using a spin labeling technique. The addition of cardiolipins from Tetrahymena cells grown at either 39°C or 15°C did not change the membrane fluidity (measured at 15°C) of phosphatidylcholine from whole cells grown at 39°C. On the other hand, both cardiolipins of 39°C-grown and 15°C-grown cells decreased the membrane fluidity of phosphatidylcholine from Tetrahymena cells grown at 15°C. The same results were obtained for phosphatidylcholines of mitochondria and microsomes. Membrane fluidity of phosphatidylethanolamine, isolated from cells grown at 15°C, was reduced to a small extent by Tetrahymena cardiolipin whereas that of 39°C-grown cells was not changed. Representative molecular species of phosphatidylcholines of cells grown at 39°C and 15°C were synthesized chemically; 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine for 39°C-grown cells and dipalmitoleoylphosphatidylcholine for 15°C-grown ones. By the addition of Tetrahymena cardiolipin, the membrane fluidity of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine was not changed but that of dipalmitoleoylphosphatidylcholine was decreased markedly. These phenomena were caused by Tetrahymena cardiolipin. However, bovine heart cardiolipin, which has a different composition of fatty acyl chains from the Tetrahymena one, exerted only a small effect. 相似文献

Isolation of membrane-bound rat mast cell granules 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A technique for obtaining membrane-bound rat peritoneal mast cell granules in high yield is described. Mast cells purified by centrifugation into 38% BSA gradients were sonicated in Ca2+, Mg2+-free Tyrode's-gelatin buffer, incubated in EDTA for 15 min at 37 °C, and differentially centrifuged through a 0.34 M sucrose cushion to yield a granular preparation with >80% of the granules bound by perigranular membranes. The perigranular membranes were demonstrated morphologically by light and electron microscopy and functionally by histamine distribution. 相似文献

Changes in the protoplast membrane of the KM strain of Bacillus megaterium were assessed after growth at 20, 30, or 37 degrees, C. Although the overall membrane concentrations of lipids and proteins were virtually unchanged, increased culture temperature resulted in cells with membranes that contained relatively more unbranched and long-chain fatty acids and more acidic phospholipids, as well as different proportions and numbers of individual proteins. Electrophoretic analysis revealed 23, 31, or 29 protein bands, respectively, in membranes from cells grown at the three temperatures. Protoplasts from cells grown at higher temperatures were considerably less susceptible to lysis by shearing forces. As judged by passive leakage at 30 degrees C, intact cells from cultures grown at 37 degrees C were the least permeable to erythritol. Relatively low ambient concentrations of Ca2+ or Mg2+ protected protoplasts from osmotic lysis but even much higher concentrations left erythritol leakage virtually unaffected. Thus, growth temperature affected not only membrane lipis but also membrane proteins and these changes resulted in membranes with altered mechanical properties and permeabilities. 相似文献

This paper describes a highly efficient procedure for the quantitative conversion of Escherichia coli cells to spheroplasts utilizing 100- to 1000-fold less lysozyme than in the most efficient procedures used to date. The resulting spheroplasts have intact outer and inner membranes and are fully viable on agar plates. The spheroplasting procedure is a refinement of earlier procedures and enables regulation of the translocation of minute amounts of lysozyme into the periplasmic space of E. coli cells, based on a Ca2+ pretreatment, an EDTA incubation, and a heat shock. About 1000 lysozyme molecules per cell are sufficient for complete spheroplast formation (>98%). Some of the characteristics of these spheroplasts prior to and after recovery are described. It is anticipated that such viable spheroplasts will be useful in the study of fusion of gram-negative cells and other membrane systems, in the introduction of DNA and proteins into refractory gram-negative cell, and in investigating envelope-related synthesis and assembly processes. 相似文献

Plant cells frequently and rapidly have to respond to environmental changes for survival. Regulation of transport and other energy-requiring processes in the plasmalemma of root cells is therefore one important aspect of the ecological adaptation of plants. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Drabant) was grown hydroponically, with or without 50 nM benzyladenine in the medium, and plasma membranes from root cells of 8-day-old plants were prepared by aqueous polymer two-phase partitioning. The influence of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the plasmalemma ATPase activities was investigated. The presence of benzyladenine during growth increased the ATPase activity, that dependent upon Ca2+ more than that elicited by Mg2+. As a general characteristic, ATP was the preferred substrate, but all nucleotide tri- and diphosphates could be accepted with activities in plasma membranes from control plants of 7-36% (Mg2+) and 40-86% (Ca2+) and in plasma membranes from benzyladenine-treated plants of 12-47% (Mg2+) and 53-102% (Ca2+) as compared with activities obtained with ATP. Nucleotidemonophosphates were not hydrolyzed by the preparations. In preparations from benzyladenine-treated plants one peak of Ca2+-ATPase at pH 5.2–5.6, with a tail from pH 6 and upwards, and one peak of Mg2+-ATPase at pH 6.0–6.5 were observed in the presence of EDTA in the assay media. In preparations from control plants, the addition of EDTA to the assays resulted in a wide optimum between pH 6 and 7 for Mg2+-ATPase and low Ca2+-ATPase activity with no influence of pH in the range 4.5 to 8. Analysis of the pH dependence in the presence of both Ca2+ and Mg2+ indicates that the control plants mainly contain Mg2+-ATPase corresponding to the proton pump. Preparations from benzyladenine-treated wheat roots show, in addition, activation by Ca2+, which, in the slightly alkaline pH range may correspond to a Ca2+-extruding (Ca2++ Mg2+)-ATPase. In the acidic range, the responses are more complicated: the Mg2+-ATPase is inhibited by vanadate, while the Ca2+-ATPase is insensitive, and benzyladenine added during growth influences the interaction between Ca2+ and Mg2+ in a way that parallels the effect of high salt medium. 相似文献

The cell-wall lysin in gametes from Chlamydomonas reinhardii which under normal mating conditions is activated by flagellar cell contact was found to be susceptible to stimulation by the antibiotic ionophore A 23187 provided that CA2+ was included in the medium. Ionophore-induced release of the cell-wall lysin did not deend on the mating type or the gametic state of the cells. Vegetative cells which normally do not exhibit any mating capacity reacted with cell-wall lysis like gametes stimulated by cell contact.Ionophore-dependent Ca2+-transfer across the cell membranes generated a signal for cell-wall lysis only in cells with intact flagella. Deflagellated cells did not respond to A 23187 before regeneration of the amputated organelles. Another indication for a possible role of flagella in Ca2+-mediated cell-wall lysis was obtained from a conditional flagellar-assembly mutant of C. reinhardii which had been isolated and described by Huang et al. (1977). Upon shift-up the mutant strain immediately became unresponsive to A 23187 and Ca2+ but regained susceptibility soon after being retransferred to permissive conditions (20°C). 相似文献

Erythrocyte ghosts prepared from fresh blood expressed phosphatidylserine (PS) on the membrane surfaces in a rather stable fashion. The binding of fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled annexin V (ANV) derivatives to these membranes was studied by titration with proteins and with calcium. Whereas the preaddition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to reaction mixtures totally prevented membrane binding, Ca2+-dependent binding was only partially reversed by EDTA treatment, consistent with an initial Ca2+-dependent binding that became partially Ca2+ independent. Data derived from saturation titration with ANV derivatives poorly fit the simple protein-membrane equilibrium binding equation and showed negative cooperativity of binding with increasing membrane occupancy. In contrast, calcium titration at low binding site occupancy resulted in excellent fit into the protein-Ca2+-membrane equilibrium binding equation. Calcium titrations of FITC-labeled ANV and ANV-6L15 (a novel ANV-Kunitz protease inhibitor fusion protein) yielded a Hill coefficient of approximately 4 in both cases. The apparent dissociation constant for ANV-6L15 was approximately 4-fold lower than that of ANV at 1.2-2.5 mM Ca2+. We propose that ANV-6L15 may provide improved detection of PS exposed on the membrane surfaces of pathological cells in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

Spheroplasts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae sporulated in 0.1 Mpotassium acetate solution which contained 0.8 M sorbitol ormannitol as the osmotic stabilizer. The appearance of matureasci in both spheroplasts and intact cells was retarded by theaddition of the osmotic stabilizer. Sporulation was repressedmarkedly when 0.6 M KCl was used as the osmotic stabilizer inthe sporulation medium. The germination rate of the spores formedin spheroplasts was 97%. Tetrad analysis showed that meiosiswas normal during the sporulation of spheroplasts. (Received September 5, 1980; Accepted November 29, 1980) 相似文献

(1) Calmodulin-depleted red cell membranes catalyse a Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent ATP-[3H]ADP exchange at 37° C. The Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent exchange, measured at 20 μM CaCl2, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1.5 mM ADP and 1.5 mM ATP, is comparable to the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity, between 0.3 and 0.8 mmol/litre original cells per h. (2) EDTA-washed membranes present a Ca2+-dependent ATP-ADP exchange whose rate is not more than 7% of that found in a Mg2+-containing medium, while their Ca2+-dependent ATPase is essentially zero. Addition of 1.5 mM MgCl2 to the medium restores both activities to the levels found with membranes not treated with EDTA. (3) Calmodulin (16 μg/ml) produces an eight-fold stimulation of the Ca2+-dependent ATP-ADP exchange, slightly less than it stimulates the Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis. The effect of 1.5 mM MgCl2 on the exchange is greater in the presence than in the absence of calmodulin. (4) It is proposed that the reversal of the initial phosphorylation of the Ca2+ pump, occurring at a fast rate at 37° C, involves a conformational change in the phosphoenzyme. Thus, it would be an ADP-liganded phosphoenzyme of the form EP(ADP) that would experience the fast conformational transition at 37° C. The great difficulty in producing an overall reversal of the Ca2+ pump should then be due to one or more reaction steps later than and including Ca2+ release and dephosphorylation. 相似文献

Spheroplasts from Rhodobacter capsulatus E1F1 cells grown in nitrate maintained nitrate uptake and nitrate reductase activity only when they were illuminated under anaerobiosis in the presence of the periplasmic fraction and nitrate. The effects on nitrate uptake and nitrate reductase activity of spheroplasts were observed at low concentrations of periplasmic protein (about 50 x ml-1). Periplasm from nitrate-grown cells was also required for nitrate reductase activity in spheroplasts isolated from ammonia-grown or diazotrophic cells which initially lacked this enzymatic activity. Both the maintenance of nitrate reductase in spheroplasts from nitrate-grown cells and the appearance of the activity in spheroplasts from diazotrophic cells were dependent on de novo protein synthesis. A periplasmic, 45-kDa protein which maintained the activity of nitrate reductase in spheroplasts was partially purified by gel filtration chromatography of periplasm obtained from nitrate-grown cells.Abbreviations NR

Pure venom from the acontial nematocysts of the sea anemone Aiptasia pallida was isolated and an assay for the hemolysis activity of the venom devised. The assay is rapid, sensitive, and reproducible. Venom concentrations as low as 0.1 μg protein/ ml were accurately assayed. The properties of the hemolysis activity were analyzed using techniques similar to those used to study enzyme-catalyzed reactions. The biochemical events underlying venom-induced lysis required the direct participation of millimolar levels of Ca2+. The slight variability of the apparent Km for Ca2+ at different venom concentrations appeared to be due to the release of some material(s) from lysing cells. Both Sr2+ and Mg2+ weakly substituted for Ca2+. Inhibition of lysis by EDTA was reversed by Ca2+. Small monovalent cations, such as Na+ or K+, appeared to be involved in the venom-induced alteration of the red cell membrane so that lysis could occur. The venom's hemolysis activity was stabilized in solution only if the concentration of the venom proteins was high while also in the presence of at least the equivalent of 0.15 m NaCl. 相似文献

Ca2+ was introduced into fresh and ATP-depleted chicken erythrocytes through the aid of the ionophore A-23187.Intracellular Ca2+ (10–40 mM) induced fusion in ATP-depleted cells after 30–60 min incubation at 37°C, but not in fresh cells. Fresh cells underwent a higher degree of haemolysis than ATP-depleted cells after accumulation of Ca2+. Uptake of Ca2+ was the same in these two systems.Intracellular Ca2+ induced rearrangement of intramembranous particles, as revealed by freeze-etching studies. The intramembranous particles in the protoplasmic face of fractured membranes obtained from fresh cells incubated with 1 mM of Ca2+ were more scattered and their density was lower than in control cells. Incubation with higher concentrations of Ca2+ (10–40 mM) induced transient changes in the intramembranous particles' density with the appearance of protrusions and depressions on the protoplasmic and exoplasmic faces of the fractured membranes, respectively. These effects were reversible upon removal of Ca2+ by washing the cells with ethyleneglycol acid; rearrangement of intramembranous particles was less evident after accumulation of Ca2+ in ATP-depleted cells, whose fractured membranes did not contain any protrusions or depressions.Transferring Ca2+-loaded cells to the cold caused the formation of large smooth areas devoid of intramembranous particles in the protoplasmic face of the fractured membranes.Cells containing Ca2+ appeared spherical, and removal of Ca2+ restored the normal oval shape of chicken erythrocytes. 相似文献

AbstractThe calcium binding properties of isolated plasma membranes from normal and SV40 transformed hamster lymphocytes were compared over the Ca2+ concentration range of 10?5M to 5 × 10?3M and at physiological ionic strength. At all Ca2+ concentrations, normal membranes bound more Ca2+ than tumor membranes; at blood Ca2+ levels (1–2 mM) plasma membranes of normal cells bind twice as much as membranes from tumor cells. Normal plasma membranes demonstrated positive cooperative Ca2+ binding whereas tumor membranes displayed non-interacting Ca2+-binding sites. Ca2+ binding to both membranes was insensitive to Mg2+ (0.1 to 2.5 mM). A pH shift from 7 to 6 resulted in a 70% decrease of normal membrane-bound Ca2+ compared to a 40% decrease observed with tumor membranes. Extracellular surface Ca2+ binding to intact cells was also studied after a 72-hour equilibration of cells with 45Ca2+ and with ethylene-glycol-bis-(β-amino-ethyl ether) N, N′-tetraacetate chelation as marker for surface Ca2+. Tumor cell surface Ca2+ binding was only 10% of that observed with quiescent lymphocytes. Normal lymphocytes stimulated to divide with phytohemagglutinin also showed a decreased level of surface Ca2+ (50%). However, plasma membranes isolated from non-dividing and phytohemagglutinin-stimulated lymphocytes exhibited equivalent Ca2+ binding. 相似文献

Erythrocyte membranes prepared by three different procedures showed (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-ATPase activities differing in specific activity and in affinity for Ca2+. The (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-ATPase activity of the three preparations was stimulated to different extents by a Ca2+-dependent protein activator isolated from hemolystes. The Ca2+ affinity of the two most active preparations was decreased as the ATP concentration in the assay medium was increased. Lowering the ATP concentration from 2 mM to 2–200 μM or lowering the Mg:ATP ratio to less than one shifted the (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-ATPase activity in stepwise hemolysis membranes from mixed “high” and “low” affinity to a single high Ca2+ affinity. Membranes from which soluble proteins were extracted by EDTA (0.1 mM) in low ionic strengh, or membranes prepared by the EDTA (1–10 mM) procedure, did not undergo the shift in the Ca2+ affinity with changes in ATP and MgCl2 concentrations. The EDTA-wash membranes were only weakly activated by the protein activator. It is suggested that the differences in properties of the (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-ATPase prepared by these three procedures reflect differences determined in part by the degree of association of the membrane with a soluble protein activator and changes in the state of the enzyme to a less activatable form. 相似文献
