Bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP) has the unique stereoconfiguration of 3-acyl-sn-glycero-1-phosphoryl-1'-sn-[3'-acylglycerol] (Brotherus, J., Renkonen, O., Herrmann, J., and Fischer, W. (1974) Chem. Phys. Lipids 13, 178-182) which differs from other known mammalian phospholipids that have the sn-glycero-3-phosphoryl configuration. This stereochemistry may contribute to its physiologic function. Here we describe studies using the macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7 designed to determined how this unique stereoconfiguration occurs. These studies show that the stereoconfiguration of BMP produced from exogenous phosphatidylglycerol (PG) by RAW 264.7 cells has the expected stereoconfiguration of 3-acyl-sn-glycero-1-phosphoryl-1'-sn-[3'-acylglycerol]. Experiments using diacyl-sn-[2-3H]glycero-3-phosphoryl-sn-1'-[2-3H]glycerol demonstrate that this unique stereoconfiguration is not produced due to an oxidation/reduction mechanism involving the sn-2-glycerol carbon. When dioleoyl-sn-[1-14C]glycero-3-phosphoryl-rac-glycerol was converted to 14C-labeled BMP, the 14C label was found esterified to the phosphate moiety. These results suggest that a stereospecific enzyme is capable of reorienting the radiolabeled glycerol backbone of this PG substrate, effectively changing the stereochemistry of the lipid. We also show that this enzyme is stereoselective with regard to the base glycerol moiety of the substrate PG used. Finally, we propose a new pathway for the synthesis of BMP from PG. 相似文献

To further elucidate the role of bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate in lysosomes, its metabolism was assessed by incubation of intact and disrupted macrophages in the presence of labeled lipid precursors. In rabbit pulmonary macrophages bis(monoacylglycero)P accounted for 17.9% and acylphosphatidylglycerol for 2.6% of phospholipid phosphorus. Major fatty acids in bis(monoacylglycero)P were oleic (47%), linoleic (29%), and arachidonic (6.4%); those in acylphosphatidylglycerol were of similar distribution except for a high content of palmitic acid (20%). When homogenates of rabbit pulmonary and peritoneal macrophages, rat pulmonary macrophages, and human blood leukocytes were incubated with sn[(14)C]glycerol-3-phosphate and CDP-diacylglycerol at pH 7.4, there was labeling of bis(monoacylglycero)P and acylphosphatidylglycerol that correlated with content of bis(monoacylglycero)P. When intact rabbit pulmonary macrophages were incubated for 60 min with [(3)H]glucose and [(32)P]orthophosphate, small amounts of label appeared in bis(monoacylglycero)P and only traces in acylphosphatidylglycerol. In contrast, incubation of intact cells with the (14)C-labeled fatty acid precursors palmitic, oleic, and arachidonic acids resulted in much greater labeling of the two lipids. Labeling of phospholipids was greatest with arachidonate as precursor and least with palmitate; after 60 min, labeling of bis(monoacylglycero)P with arachidonate was 10- and 50-fold greater than with oleate and palmitate, respectively, and was exceeded only by that of phosphatidylcholine. Calculated ratios of labeling of fatty acid to P, particularly those for arachidonate, were much greater for bis(monoacylglycero)P and for acylphosphatidylglycerol than for other phospholipids. This suggests a uniquely high turnover of fatty acids in bis(monoacylglycero)P and acylphosphatidylglycerol and thus a more specific role for these compounds in metabolism of complex lipids in the lysosome.-Huterer, S., and J. Wherrett. Metabolism of bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate in macrophages. 相似文献

We examined the uptake of radiolabeled lysophospholipids and oleic acid by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin-induced rabbit alveolar macrophages either in the presence or absence of challenge particles. There was no difference in the uptake and metabolism of lysophospholipids by control or challenged cells for incubation periods up to 5 h. When incubated with [3H]oleic acid, challenged cells consistently exhibited a slightly greater uptake of radioactivity. Extraction of the whole cells revealed that the greater amount of radioactivity found in the challenged cells primarily was in triacylglycerol. There was no marked difference in the amount of radioactivity associated with the phospholipids in the whole cell extracts from control and challenged cells. When the macrophages were pre-labeled for 15 min with [3H]oleic acid and then reincubated in fresh medium in the presence or absence of autoclaved Escherichia coli B, more radioactivity was retained by the challenged cells, again in the form of triacylglycerol. Only in isolated plasma membrane fractions did we observe a difference in the amount of radioactivity associated with phospholipids from control and challenged cells. Plasma membranes isolated from Bacillus Calmette-Guerin-induced rabbit alveolar macrophages that had been incubated for 6 h with [3]oleic acid in the presence of E. coli B contained significantly higher level of radioactivity in all lipids than plasma membranes from control cells. Since the greatest and the most consistent difference between control and challenged cells is associated with the triacylglycerol molecule, it is postulated that this molecule may serve as a precursor in the synthesis of alveolar macrophage phospholipids, both by the reacylation pathway and the de novo pathway. It is possible that the high level of radiolabeled phospholipid found in the plasma membrane arose via the de novo pathway following the cleavage of an acyl group as we have found cytidine diphosphocholine phosphotransferase in the plasma membrane fraction (Wang, P., DeChatelet, L.R., and Waite, M. (1977) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 450, 311--321). 相似文献

Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells convert 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine [( 3H]alkylacylGPC) to a product tentatively identified as an ethanolamine-containing phosphoglyceride (PE) (Daniel, L. W., Waite, B. M., and Wykle, R. L. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 9128-9132). In the present study, analysis of the radiolabeled phosphoglycerides as diradylglycerobenzoate derivatives indicated that [3H] alkylacylGPC was initially converted to 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine [( 3H]alkylacylGPE) which was subsequently desaturated to 1-O-[3H]alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine [( 3H]alkenylacylGPE). The conversion of [3H]/[32P]alkyl-lysoGPC to [3H]alkenylacylGPE indicated that base exchange enzymes were not involved in this pathway. A phosphono analog of alkyl-lysoGPC, resistant to phospholipase D hydrolysis and radiolabeled in the 1-O-alkyl chain was readily incorporated, acylated, and subsequently metabolized to [3H]alkylacylGPC and [3H]alkenylacylGPE. Therefore, the involvement of phospholipase D in the conversion pathway was ruled out. The conversion of [3H]alkylacylGPC or its phosphono analog to [3H]alkenylacylGPE was significantly enhanced by the addition of 100 microM ethanolamine to the culture media, suggesting that [3H]alkylacylglycerol is an intermediate in the cytidine-dependent pathway of PE synthesis. MDCK cell cytosol and microsomes contained no detectable phospholipase C activity. However, incubation of microsomes with CMP resulted in the degradation of [3H]alkylacylGPC and accumulation of [3H]alkylacylglycerol. Furthermore, the addition of CDP-ethanolamine to microsomes following preincubation with CMP, resulted in a decrease in [3H]alkylacylglycerol with a concomitant increase in [3H]alkenylacylGPE. Overall, these results suggest that the reverse reaction of choline phosphotransferase may be responsible for the conversion of alkylacylGPC to alkylacylGPE. 相似文献

Tetrodotoxin receptors in membrane fragments: purification from Electrophorus electricus electroplax and binding properties 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A tetrodotoxin receptor-rich preparation of membrane fragments from the electric organ of Electrophorus electricus is described. The specific binding of neurotoxins and freeze-fracture electron microscopy are used as tools to identify and to characterize membrane fractions. Freeze-fracture electron micrographs of the electric organ demonstrate a high density of membrane particles in the extrasynaptic regions. Density gradient fractions show a broad distribution of [3H]tetrodotoxin, [3H]saxitoxin and 125I-labelled bungarotoxin binding in the range of 1.04--1.15 g/ml sucrose densities, with specific neurotoxin binding up to approx. 5 pmol/mg protein. Carrier-free column electrophoresis of density gradient fractions yields a subfraction with tetrodotoxin and alpha-neurotoxin binding up to 30 pmol/mg protein. The major part of the membrane fragments forms vesicles, which are separated by lectin chromatography into an outside-out and inside-out population. The latter represents at least 50% of the material of a density gradient fraction. For the association of tetrodotoxin, a bimolecular kinetic constant kf greater than or equal to 3.10(5) M-1.s-1 is determined. The dissociation constant is k'b = 2.5.10(-2)s-1. These data are in agreement with a thermodynamic dissociation constant of Kd = 20 nM as determined earlier for E. electricus membrane fragments by equilibrium methods (Grünhagen, H.H., Rack, M., St?mpfli, R., Fasold, H. and Reiter, P. (1981) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 206, in the press). However, these association kinetics of tetrodotoxin binding in vitro are significantly different from kinetics determined electrophysiologically in Rana (Wagner, H.H. and Ulbricht, W. (1975) Pflügers Arch. 359, 297--315) or Xenopus (Schwarz, J.R., Ulbricht, W. and Wagner, H.H. (1973) J. Physiol. 233, 167--194). 相似文献

Involvement of protein kinase C in platelet-activating factor-stimulated diacylglycerol accumulation in murine peritoneal macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Incubation of murine peritoneal macrophages with platelet-activating factor (PAF; 1-O-alkyl(C16 + C18)-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine) results in the rapid accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates and sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) and mobilization of intracellular calcium (Prpic, V., Uhing, R. J., Weiel, J. E., Jakoi, L., Gawdi, G., Herman, B., and Adams, D. O. (1988) J. Cell Biol. 107, 363-372). We have further investigated the relationship of phosphoinositide metabolism to accumulation of DAG and the possible involvement of protein kinase C in the accumulation of DAG in response to PAF. DAG accumulation proceeds at a slower rate than the accumulation of either [3H] inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate or total [3H]inositol phosphates. Accumulation of DAG from additional precursors is suggested from both an estimation of the mass of total inositol phosphates produced and the accumulation of [3H]choline in response in PAF. Down-regulation of protein kinase C by prolonged pretreatment with phorbol ester or inhibition of the enzyme with sphingosine inhibited the PAF-generated accumulation of DAG at 10 min by approximately 80%. Under the same conditions, no inhibition of PAF-stimulated generation of [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate was observed. Similar inhibition was observed when 10 microM ionomycin or 0.1 microM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate were used to stimulate accumulation of DAG. The results suggest that PAF stimulates the accumulation of DAG from source other than phosphatidylinositol metabolism in peritoneal macrophages and that this occurs subsequent to the activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Biologically active preparations of 125I-thyrotropin, [3H]thyrotropin, and the [3H]exophthalmogenic factor derived from thyrotropin by partial pepsin digestion have been used to study the binding properties of the thyrotropin receptor on guinea pig retro-orbital tissue plasma membranes. In regard to the optimal conditions of binding, pH, buffer, salt concentrations, and temperature, these properties are the same as those described in any accompanying report concerning thyrotropin binding to bovine thyroid plasma membranes (Tate, R.L., Schwartz, H.I., Holmes, J.M., Kohn, L.D., and Winand, R.J. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 6509-6515). In addition, thyrotropin receptors on the retro-orbital tissue plasma membranes are similar to thyrotropin receptors on bovine thyroid plasma membranes in their apparent negative cooperativity and in their relative affinities for luteinizing hormone, the beta subunit of thyrotropin, and the alpha subunit of thyrotropin. In contrast, gamma-globulin from patients with malignant exophthalmos enhances binding when added to incubation mixtures containing the retro-orbital tissue plasma membranes but not when added to those containing thyroid plasma membranes. Normal gamma-globulin and gamma-globulin from Graves' disease patients without exophthalmos do not have this property. The gamma-globulin itself does not bind to the membrane except in the presence of thyrotropin or its exophthalmogenic factor derivative. Tryptic digestion of the retro-orbital tissue membranes releases specific thyrotropin and exophthalmogenic factor binding activity into the supernatant phase. Chromatography on Sephadex G-100 indicates that this trypsin-released receptor activity has a molecular weight of 75,000 or greater, rather than 15,000 to 30,000 for the trypsin-released receptor activity from bovine thyroid membranes (Tate, R.L., Schwartz, H.I., Holmes, J.M., Kohn, L.D., and Winand, R.J. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 6509-6515). 相似文献

Proteolipid formation in Mycoplasma capricolum. Influence of cholesterol on unsaturated fatty acid acylation of membrane proteins 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Mycoplasma capricolum, a procaryotic sterol and fatty acid auxotroph was grown on media supplemented with [3H]palmitate or [3H]oleate. The isolated bacterial membranes were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Of the more than 50 membrane polypeptides revealed by Coomassie blue staining, approximately 25 were labeled with [3H]palmitate and only about 6 were labeled with [3H]oleate. Exhaustive delipidation of the membranes with chloroform:methanol did not alter the labeling pattern. Treatment of delipidated membranes by mild alkaline hydrolysis released up to 71% of the [3H]palmitate and 93% of the [3H]oleate. The data suggest that numerous membrane proteins of M. capricolum are covalently modified by acylation with saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Cerulenin, a specific inhibitor of fatty acid synthesis had no effect on the labeling of mycoplasma membrane proteins by either [3H]palmitate or [3H]oleate. A small amount of membrane-associated cholesterol previously shown to stimulate sequentially the synthesis of unsaturated phospholipid, RNA, and protein (Dahl, J. S., and Dahl, C. E. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 692-696) specifically enhances the acylation of certain proteolipids by oleate but not by palmitate. 相似文献

Cooperative site-to-site interactions among beta-adrenergic receptors of fat cell membranes are probed with the potent beta-adrenergic antagonist (?)-[3H]-dihydroalprenolol according to the kinetic method of De Meyts et al. (De Meyts, P., Roth, J., Neville, Jr., D.M., Gavin, III, J.R. and Lesniak, M.A. (1973) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 55, 154–161). Dissociation of specific (?)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding from fat cell membranes following a 100-fold dilution was rapid at 37°C; only 40% of the initial equilibrium binding remained 30 s after dilution. Dissociation of (?)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol bound under conditions yielding approximately 20% initial occupancy was performed in the absence and in the presence of a large molar excess of beta-adrenergic agonist ((?)-isoproterenol) or beta-adrenergic antagonist ((?)-alprenolol or(?)-propanalol). Neither agonists nor antagonists influenced the rate of (?)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol dissociation from fat cell membranes performed at 4, 22 or 37°C. Although analysis of the steady-state binding of (?)-[3H]-dihydroalprenolol to fat cell membranes yields Hill coefficients, nH, less than 1.0, the present study indicates that these fat cell beta-adrenergic receptors display no cooperative site-to-site interactions. 相似文献

Intracellular transport of a newly synthesized asialoglycoprotein receptor was studied biochemically using a monospecific antibody for the receptor. Pulse-labeling by intravenous injection of [3H]leucine and pulse-chasing after 10 min by cycloheximide injection resulted in the maximal labeling of the receptor in the rough microsomes at 15 min, in the smooth microsomes and the heavy Golgi subfraction (GF3) at 25 min and in the intermediate plus light Golgi subfraction (GF1+2) at 30 min. By 60 min, the labeling in GF1+2 had decreased and leveled off. In the plasma membrane fraction, the labeled receptor first appeared at 20 min, increased rapidly and also reached a constant level at 40-60 min. Intracellular movement of the newly synthesized receptor in the GF1+2 and plasma membrane fractions was also investigated by purifying the receptor protein from the GF1+2 and plasma membrane fractions by affinity chromatography. It was revealed that the specific radioactivities of the receptor in the two fractions become equilibrated after 60-120 min. The receptor of the various membrane fractions was also pulse-labeled in vivo for 20 min simultaneously with [3H]glucosamine and [14C]leucine, and pulse-chased for the following 40 min. After pulse-labeling for 20 min, the ratio of the radioactivity of [3H]glucosamine or [3H]sialic acid to [14C]leucine of the receptor from the rough and smooth microsomes, and GF3, GF2, and GF1 increased in that order. That of the receptor from the plasma membrane fraction was infinitely higher, because, while a significant amount of 3H-radioactivity was incorporated into the receptor in the Golgi apparatus, only a negligible amount of 14C-radioactivity was incorporated into the same receptor in the plasma membrane due to the delay in the arrival of [14C]leucine labeled receptor to the plasma membrane. After chasing for 40 min, however, the same radioactivity ratios of the GF1 and plasma membrane fractions approached each other. All these results strongly suggest that the distribution of the newly synthesized receptor becomes rapidly equilibrated between the trans-Golgi components and plasma membranes probably by repeated recycling of the receptor protein between the two membranes. 相似文献

Photoaffinity labeling of the beta-adrenergic receptor 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

A new photoactive beta-adrenergic antagonist, p-azidobenzylcarazolol (pABC) has been synthesized by combining a carbazole moiety with a p-azido-benzyl substituent. The compound has been labeled with tritium to a specific activity of 26 Ci/mmol. In frog erythrocyte membranes, [3H]p-azido-benzylcarazolol binds to the beta-adrenergic receptor with the expected beta 2 specificity and with high affinity (KD congruent to 100 +/- 10 pM). Unlabeled p-azido-benzylcarazolol can irreversibly inactivate the [3H]dihydroalprenolol-binding activity of frog erythrocyte membranes in a photodependent manner which can be prevented by beta-adrenergic agents. Incubation of frog erythrocyte membranes or digitonin-solubilized preparations of these membranes or digitonin-solubilized preparations of these membranes which had been enriched in beta-adrenergic receptors by a Sepharose-alprenolol chromatography step led to covalent incorporation of radioactivity into a Mr = 58,000 peptide. Specific incorporation of [3H]pABC into the Mr = 58,000 peptide could be prevented by both beta-adrenergic agonists and antagonists. This peptide has previously been purified and shown to contain the beta-adrenergic receptor-binding site (Shorr, R. G. L., Lefkowitz, R. J., and Caron, M. G. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 5820-5826). Thus, photoaffinity labeling of the beta-adrenergic receptor protein directly identifies the same hormone-binding subunit as has been isolated by conventional purification techniques. 相似文献

Highly purified rough endoplasmic reticulum and three subfractions of golgi were prepared from 105,000g pellet of the homogenate by centrifugation in floatation and sedimentation discontinuous sucrose gradients. Highly purified plasma membranes were also prepared from 9,000g pellet of the same homogenates for assessment under the same experimental conditions. Although 5′-nucleotidase, a marker for plasma membranes, was markedly enriched in plasma membranes, very little or none of this enzyme activity was found in other fractions. Very little or no NADH cytochrome c reductase activity, a marker for rough endoplasmic reticulum, was found in fractions other than rough endoplasmic reticulum. Galactosyl transferase, a marker for golgi, was found and enriched in all the fractions; however, enrichment in golgi fractions was higher than in other fractions. Very little or no lysosomal marker activity, i.e., acid phosphatase, was found in rough endoplasmic reticulum or golgi fractions as compared to lysosomes. These marker enzyme data suggested that rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi fractions were relatively pure with little or no cross contamination with other organelles. The [125I]human choriogonadotropin ([125I]hCG), [3H]prostaglandin (PG)E1, and [3H]PGF2a specifically bound to rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi fractions in addition to plasma membranes. The enrichments of binding in the former two fractions, in some cases, were as high as plasma membranes itself. The specific binding of some of the ligands was found to be partially latent in rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi fractions but not in plasma membranes. Marker enzyme data, ratio between bindings and marker enzyme activities (an index of organelle contamination), and partial latency of binding suggest that rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi fractions intrinsically contain gonadotropin and PGs binding sites. 相似文献

In this article the existence of A1 adenosine receptors and the absence of A2 adenosine receptors in myelin membranes purified from pig brain white matter are demonstrated. The characterization of (R)-[3H]phenylisopropyladenosine ([3H]R-PIA) binding to purified myelin fractions was performed. The distribution of high- and low-affinity species of the A1 adenosine receptor was different in heavy, medium, and light myelin. The fluidity of myelin subfractions and of pig brain cortical membranes was estimated; the microviscosity of heavy myelin (5.4 poises) and of cortical membranes (5.1 poises) was similar and less than that of medium (7.8 poises) and light (8.2 poises) myelin. It was also demonstrated that the agonist R-PIA modifies the microviscosity of myelin membranes and that the degree of modification depends on the fluidity of the membrane assayed. These results suggest that adenosine receptors may have an important role in the functionality of myelin membranes. 相似文献

Photoaffinity-labelling of the glycine receptor of rat spinal cord 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The irreversible incorporation upon ultraviolet illumination of the glycine receptor antagonist, [3H]strychnine, into synaptic membrane fractions of rat spinal cord has been investigated. The specificity of this photoaffinity-labelling reaction for the glycine receptor was demonstrated by the following results: (a) the Kd value (9.7 nM) of the glycine-displaceable irreversible incorporation of [3H]strychnine was similar to the previously reported Kd of [3H]strychnine binding to the glycine receptor; (b) pre-illumination of the membranes with unlabelled strychnine led to a corresponding reduction in the number, but not the affinity, of reversible glycine-displaceable [3H]strychnine binding sites; (c) the ultraviolet light-induced incorporation into the membranes of [3H]strychnine was inhibited by different glycine receptor agonists; other neurotransmitter substances had little or no effect. Also, [3H]strychnine alone was shown to be stable upon illumination with ultraviolet light; this suggests that photocrosslinking of [3H]strychnine may require energy transfer from specific groups of its high-affinity receptor binding site. Upon sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a single labelled polypeptide with a relative molecular mass of 48000 was revealed from spinal cord membranes photoaffinity-labelled with [3H]strychnine. Spinal cord membranes photoaffinity-labelled with the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor ligand [3H]flunitrazepam, however, gave a single polypeptide with a relative molecular mass of 5- 0000. Treatment of membranes, labelled with [3H]strychnine, by endoglycosidase H did not alter the relative molecular mass of the 48000-Mr labelled polypeptide. Trypsin treatment, on the other hand, successively produced major fragments of relative molecular masses of 42000 and 37000. Also, even after extensive treatment with trypsin or chymotrypsin, greater than or equal to 90% of the radioactivity incorporated into the labelled membranes remained membrane-associated. It is concluded that the strychnine binding site of the glycine receptor is located on a protease-inaccessible, i.e. probably hydrophobic domain of the 48000-Mr subunit. 相似文献

sn-1 Palmitoyl lysophosphatidylinositol is found in carrot suspension culture cells and can be phosphorylated to [32P]lysophosphatidylinositol monophosphate (LPIP) when [gamma 32P]ATP is added to isolated membranes. Based on in vivo labeling studies, [3H]inositol sn-1 palmitoyl LPIP was found predominantly in the plasma membrane-rich fraction or upper phase isolated by aqueous two-phase partitioning and LPI was found in the intracellular membrane-rich fraction or lower phase (Wheeler and Boss, Plant Physiol. 85, 389-392, 1987). While both membrane fractions phosphorylated LPI in vitro, the apparent Km for LPI in the intracellular membrane fraction was 180 microM and for the plasma membrane was 580 microM. When cells were treated with the ionophore, monensin, the percentage of [3H]inositol LPIP increased in the whole cell lipid extract. However, the monensin treatment decreased the amount of [3H]inositol LPIP and PIP recovered in the plasma membrane fraction relative to the sum of the individual lipid, [3H]inositol LPIP or PIP, respectively, recovered in both membrane fractions. 相似文献

Functional ion channel formation by mouse macrophage IgG Fc receptor triggered by specific ligands 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mouse macrophage Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R has previously been purified with the aid of the monoclonal antibody 2.4G2. That this Fc gamma R functions as a ligand-dependent ion channel is supported by the following evidence. Employing [3H]tetraphenylphosphonium ([3H]Ph4P+) as a probe for membrane potential changes in intact cells, we found a biphasic change in membrane potential following treatment with immune complexes, monoclonal antibody 2.4G2 IgG and 2.4G2 Fab-Sephadex particles. We observed an immediate depolarization followed by prolonged hyperpolarization. [3H]Ph4P+ uptake experiments with plasma membrane vesicles prepared from J774 macrophages showed that binding of ligands to the FcR led to transmembrane monovalent cation flow. Similar [3H]Ph4+ uptake experiments were done with phospholipid vesicles containing purified and reconstituted Fc gamma 2b/gamma. Following challenge with specific ligands, transmembrane monovalent cation flow was observed. Purified FcR was reconstituted into planar lipid bilayers; exposure to ligands led to transient bilayer conductance increase. THe conductance change was resolved into single channel events. Quin-2 measurements showed an increase of free cytosolic calcium levels in macrophages following exposure of cells to different ligands of the FcR. An optimal range of calcium was found to be required for phagocytosis, below and above which inhibition of ingestion occurred. 相似文献

Defective glycosyl phosphatidylinositol biosynthesis in extracts of three Thy-1 negative lymphoma cell mutants 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors that attach certain proteins to membranes are preassembled by sequential addition of glycan components to phosphatidylinositol (PI) before being transferred to nascent polypeptide. A cell-free system consisting of trypanosome membranes has been reported to catalyze GPI biosynthesis (Masterson, W. J., Doering, T. L., Hart, G. W., and Englund, P. T. (1989) Cell 56, 793-800; Menon, A. K., Schwarz, R. T., Mayor, S., and Cross, G. A. M. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 9033-9042). We now describe conditions for studying the initial steps of GPI biosynthesis in extracts of murine lymphoma cells. Two chloroform-soluble products, tentatively identified as [6-3H]GlcNAc-PI and [6-3H]GlcN-PI were generated during incubations of EL4 cell lysates with UDP-[6-3H]GlcNAc. The involvement of PI in the reaction was established by the sensitivity of the products to hydrolysis by PI-specific phospholipase C and the finding that the addition of exogenous PI to the incubation stimulated the reaction. The minor, more polar product was sensitive to nitrous acid cleavage and was converted to the major product, as judged by TLC, after treatment with acetic anhydride. The glycolipids generated in lymphoma extracts appeared to be the same as the products produced in parallel incubations with trypanosome membranes. Analysis of available lymphoma mutants deficient in Thy-1 surface expression revealed that extracts of the class A, C, and H mutants are completely defective in synthesizing GlcNAc-PI and GlcN-PI. 相似文献

12-Hydroperoxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE), a lipoxygenase product, simulates the synaptic responses produced by the modulatory transmitter, histamine, and the neuroactive peptide, Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-amide (FMRFamide), in identified neurons of the marine mollusk, Aplysia californica (Piomelli, D., Shapiro, E., Feinmark, S. J., and Schwartz, J. H. (1987) J. Neurosci. 7, 3675-3886; Shapiro, E., Piomelli, D., Feinmark, S., Vogel, S., Chin, G., and Schwartz, J. H. (1988) Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 53, in press). The 12-lipoxygenase pathway has not yet been fully characterized, but 12-HPETE is known to be metabolized further. We therefore began to search for other metabolites in order to investigate whether the actions of 12-HPETE might require its conversion to other active products. Here we report the identification of 12-keto-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-KETE), a metabolite of 12-HPETE formed by Aplysia nervous tissue. This product was identified in incubations of the tissue with arachidonic acid using high performance liquid chromatography, UV spectrometry, and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. [3H]12-KETE was formed from endogenous lipid stores in nervous tissue, labeled by incubation with [3H]arachidonic acid, when stimulated by application of histamine. In L14 and L10 cells, identified neurons in the abdominal ganglion, applications of 12-KETE elicit changes in membrane potential similar to those evoked by histamine. 12(S)-Hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, another metabolite of 12-HPETE, is inactive. These results support the hypothesis that 12-HPETE and its metabolite, 12-KETE, participate in transduction of histamine responses in Aplysia neurons. 相似文献

Incubation of 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells with carbachol resulted in a rapid loss of binding of [3H]N-methylscopolamine ([3H]NMS) to muscarinic cholinergic receptors measured at 4 degrees C on intact cells; loss of muscarinic receptors in lysates from the same cells measured with [3H]quinuclidinyl benzilate [( 3H]QNB) at 37 degrees C occurred at a slower rate. Upon removal of agonist from the medium, the lost [3H]NMS binding sites measured on intact cells recovered with a t1/2 of approximately 20 min, but only to the level to which [3H]QNB binding sites had been lost; no recovery of "lost" [3H]QNB binding sites occurred over the same period. Based on these data and the arguments of Galper et al. (Galper, J. B., Dziekan, L. C., O'Hara, D. S., and Smith, T. W. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 10344-10356) regarding the relative hydrophilicity of [3H]NMS versus [3H]QNB, it is proposed that carbachol induces a rapid sequestration of muscarinic receptors that is followed by a loss of these receptors from the cell. These carbachol-induced changes are accompanied by a change in the membrane form of the muscarinic receptor. Although essentially all of the muscarinic receptors from control cells co-purified with the plasma membrane fraction on sucrose density gradients, 20-35% of the muscarinic receptors from cells treated for 30 min with 100 microM carbachol migrated to a much lower sucrose density. This conversion of muscarinic receptors to a "light vesicle" form occurred with a t1/2 approximately 10 min, and reversed with a t1/2 approximately 20 min. In contrast to previous results in this cell line regarding beta-adrenergic receptors (Harden, T. K., Cotton, C. U., Waldo, G. L., Lutton, J. K., and Perkins, J. P. (1980) Science 210, 441-443), agonist binding to muscarinic receptors in the light vesicle fraction obtained from carbachol-treated cells was still regulated by GTP. One interpretation of these data is that agonists induce an internalization of muscarinic receptors with the retention of their functional interaction with a guanine nucleotide regulatory protein. 相似文献

Chronic low-frequency stimulation of rabbit tibialis anterior muscle over a 24-h period induces a conspicuous loss of isometric tension that is unrelated to muscle energy metabolism (J.A. Cadefau, J. Parra, R. Cusso, G. Heine, D. Pette, Responses of fatigable and fatigue-resistant fibres of rabbit muscle to low-frequency stimulation, Pflugers Arch. 424 (1993) 529-537). To assess the involvement of sarcoplasmic reticulum and transverse tubular system in this force impairment, we isolated microsomal fractions from stimulated and control (contralateral, unstimulated) muscles on discontinuous sucrose gradients (27-32-34-38-45%, wt/wt). All the fractions were characterized in terms of calcium content, Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase activity, and radioligand binding of [3H]-PN 200-110 and [3H]ryanodine, specific to dihydropyridine-sensitive calcium channels and ryanodine receptors, respectively. Gradient fractions of muscles stimulated for 24 h underwent acute changes in the pattern of protein bands. First, light fractions from longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum, enriched in Ca2+-ATPase activity, R1 and R2, were greatly reduced (67% and 51%, respectively); this reduction was reflected in protein yield of crude microsomal fractions prior to gradient loading (25%). Second, heavy fractions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum were modified, and part (52%) of the R3 fraction was shifted to the R4 fraction, which appeared as a thick, clotted band. Quantification of [3H]-PN 200-110 and [3H]-ryanodine binding revealed co-migration of terminal cisternae and t-tubules from R3 to R4, indicating the presence of triads. This density change may be associated with calcium overload of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, since total calcium rose three- to fourfold in stimulated muscle homogenates. These changes correlate well with ultrastructural damage to longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum and swelling of t-tubules revealed by electron microscopy. The ultrastructural changes observed here reflect exercise-induced damage of membrane systems that might severely compromise muscle function. Since this process is reversible, we suggest that it may be part of a physiological response to fatigue. 相似文献
