The chloroplastic and cytosolic isoenzymes of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK; EC 2.7.2.3) of leaves from 18 of a broad range of 21 vascular plant species were separated by either standard or modified anion-exchange Chromatographic procedures. Immunoprecipitation of the isoenzymes with antisera raised against barley chloroplastic and cytosolic PGK isoenzymes showed that the chloroplastic isoenzymes resemble the chloroplastic isoenzymes of other species more closely than the cytosolic isoenzyme of the same species and vice versa for the cytosolic isoenzymes. Each of the two cyanobacterial species tested, yielded only a single PGK fraction on anion-exchange chromatography and gave no reaction with antisera raised against the barley isoenzymes. The cyanobacteria are presumed to contain only a single PGK which is not closely related to either of the barley PGK isoenzymes. In all of the investigated leaf extracts the catalytic activity of the cytosolic PGK was exceeded by that of the chloroplastic PGK with the ratio for many of the C3 plants falling within the range 595 to 1585 (cytosolic: chloroplastic). The relative amounts of cytosolic PGK activity appeared to be greater in older leaves, in C4 and CAM plants and in ferns.Abbreviations CAM

Higher-plant chloroplast and cytosolic 3-phosphoglycerate kinases: a case of endosymbiotic gene replacement 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Previous studies indicated that plant nuclear genes for chloroplast and cytosolic isoenzymes of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) arose through recombination between a preexisting gene of the eukaryotic host nucleus for the cytosolic enzyme and an endosymbiont-derived gene for the chloroplast enzyme. We readdressed the evolution of eukaryotic pgk genes through isolation and characterisation of a pgk gene from the extreme halophilic, photosynthetic archaebacterium Haloarcula vallismortis and analysis of PGK sequences from the three urkingdoms. A very high calculated net negative charge of 63 for PGK from H. vallismortis was found which is suggested to result from selection for enzyme solubility in this extremely halophilic cytosol. We refute the recombination hypothesis proposed for the origin of plant PGK isoenzymes. The data indicate that the ancestral gene from which contemporary homologues for the Calvin cycle/glycolytic isoenzymes in higher plants derive was acquired by the nucleus from (endosymbiotic) eubacteria. Gene duplication subsequent to separation of Chlamydomonas and land plant lineages gave rise to the contemporary genes for chloroplast and cytosolic PGK isoenzymes in higher plants, and resulted in replacement of the preexisting gene for PGK of the eukaryotic cytosol. Evidence suggesting a eubacterial origin of plant genes for PGK via endosymbiotic gene replacement indicates that plant nuclear genomes are more highly chimaeric, i.e. contain more genes of eubacterial origin, than is generally assumed.Abbreviations PGK

The catalytic activities of the chloroplastic and cytosolic isoenzymes of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK; EC 2.7.2.3) have been followed during the development of the first leaf of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grown for 7 d in darkness followed by transfer to continuous illumination. The investigation has included both the study of a standard leaf section, measured from the leaf tip, over the whole life of the leaf and the study of serial sections of leaf, measured from the leaf base, at a standard sampling time. The results of both approaches were fully compatible. As the catalytic activity of each isoenzyme in the standard assay is directly proportional to the amount of isoenzyme protein present, the catalytic activities may be interpreted wholly in terms of enzyme synthesis and degradation. Both isoenzymes are synthesized in darkness and in etiolated barley are present at a ratio of about 2674 for the cytosolic to chloroplastic isoenzymes. Illumination results in a fivefold or greater increase in chloroplast PGK over a number of days with little change of the cytosolic isoenzyme, resulting in an eventual ratio of cytosolic to chloroplastic isoenzymes approaching the green-leaf value of about 991. Prior to any detectable onset of senescence a 15-fold increase in cytosolic isoenzyme commenced while the amount of chloroplast PGK remained constant. It is suggested that the increased cytosolic PGK may be involved in the export of carbohydrate reserves (starch) prior to leaf senescence. Both isoenzymes subsequently decline in parallel to total protein and chlorophyll in the course of senescence.Abbreviations DHAP reductase

Differential gene expression of chloroplast and cytosolic phosphoglycerate kinase in tobacco 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Northern blot analysis of RNA extracted from leaves of increasing age and different organs, indicates that genes encoding both isoenzymes of tobacco phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK, EC 2.7.2.3) are differentially expressed in a developmental and tissue-specific manner. The genes for both chloroplast PGK (chl-PGK) and cytosolic PGK (cyt-PGK) also show light-modulated gene expression in vivo. In dark-grown developing cotyledonary leaves of tobacco both PGK mRNAs are present, but only the concentration of the chl-PGK mRNA increased on illumination. In contrast, on transfer to darkness, the concentration of both mRNAs decreased in light-grown seedlings and then increased again on resumption of illumination. 相似文献

Phylogenetic analysis of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase loci in wheat and other grasses 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

We have applied a two-gene system based on the sequences of nuclear genes encoding multi-domain plastid acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) and plastid 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) to study grass evolution. Our analysis revealed that these genes are single-copy in most of the grass species studied, allowing the establishment of orthologous relationships between them. These relationships are consistent with the known facts of their evolution: the eukaryotic origin of the plastid ACCase, created by duplication of a gene encoding the cytosolic multi-domain ACCase gene early in grass evolution, and the prokaryotic (endosymbiont) origin of the plastid PGK. The major phylogenetic relationships among grasses deduced from the nucleotide sequence comparisons of ACCase and PGK genes are consistent with each other and with the milestones of grass evolution revealed by other methods. Nucleotide substitution rates were calculated based on multiple pairwise sequence comparisons. On a relative basis, with the divergence of the Pooideae and Panicoideae subfamilies set at 60 million years ago (MYA), events leading to the Triticum/Aegilops complex occurred at the following intervals: divergence of Lolium (Lolium rigidum) at 35 MYA, divergence of Hordeum (Hordeum vulgare) at 11 MYA and divergence of Secale (Secale cereale) at 7 MYA. On the same scale, gene duplication leading to the multi-domain plastid ACCase in grasses occurred at 129 MYA, divergence of grass and dicot plastid PGK genes at 137 MYA, and divergence of grass and dicot cytosolic PGK genes at 155 MYA. The ACCase and PGK genes provide a well-understood two-locus system to study grass phylogeny, evolution and systematics. 相似文献

Cytosolic fructose-1,6-biphosphatases (FBPase, EC 3.1.3.11) from pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Lincoln) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. cv Winter Giant) did not cross-react by double immunodiffusion and western blotting with either of the antisera raised against the chloroplast enzyme of both species; similarly, pea and spinach chloroplast FBPases did not react with the spinach cytosolic FBPase antiserum. On the other hand, spinach and pea chloroplast FBPases showed strong cross-reactions against the antisera to chloroplast FBPases, in the same way that the pea and spinach cytosolic enzymes displayed good cross-reactions against the antiserum to spinach cytosolic FBPase. Crude extracts from spinach and pea leaves, as well as the corresponding purified chloroplast enzymes, showed by western blotting only one band (44 and 43 kD, respectively) in reaction with either of the antisera against the chloroplast enzymes. A unique fraction of molecular mass 38 kD appeared when either of the crude extracts or the purified spinach cytosolic FBPase were analyzed against the spinach cytosolic FBPase antiserum. These molecular sizes are in accordance with those reported for the subunits of the photosynthetic and gluconeogenic FBPases. Chloroplast and cytosolic FBPases underwent increasing inactivation when increasing concentrations of chloroplast or cytosolic anti-FBPase immunoglobulin G (IgG), respectively, were added to the reaction mixture. However, inactivations were not observed when the photosynthetic enzyme was incubated with the IgG to cytosolic FBPase, or vice versa. Quantitative results obtained by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) showed 77% common antigenic determinants between the two chloroplast enzymes when tested against the spinach photosynthetic FBPase antiserum, which shifted to 64% when assayed against the pea antiserum. In contrast, common antigenic determinats between the spinach cytosolic FBPase and the two chloroplast enzymes were less than 10% when the ELISA test was carried out with either of the photosynthetic FBPase antisera, and only 5% when the assay was performed with the antiserum to the spinach cytosolic FBPase. These results were supported by sequencing data: the deduced amino acid sequence of a chloroplast FBPase clone isolated from a pea cDNA library indicated a 39,253 molecular weight protein, with a homology of 85% with the spinach chloroplast FBPase but only 48.5% with the cytosolic enzyme from spinach. 相似文献

The cytosolic isoform of ascorbate peroxidase was purified to homogeneity from 14-day-old pea (Pisum sativum L.) shoots. The enzyme is a homodimer with molecular weight of 57,500, composed of two subunits with molecular weight of 29,500. Spectral analysis and inhibitor studies were consistent with the presence of a heme moiety. When compared with ascorbate peroxidase activity derived from ruptured intact chloroplasts, the purified enzyme was found to have a higher stability, a broader pH optimum for activity, and the capacity to utilize alternate electron donors. Unlike classical plant peroxidases, the cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase had a very high preference for ascorbate as an electron donor and was specifically inhibited by p-chloromercurisulfonic acid and hydroxyurea. Antibodies raised against the cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase from pea did not cross-react with either protein extracts obtained from intact pea chloroplasts or horseradish peroxidase. The amino acid sequence of the N-terminal region of the purified enzyme was determined. Little homology was observed among pea cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase, the tea chloroplastic ascorbate peroxidase, and horseradish peroxidase; homology was, however, found with chloroplastic ascorbate peroxidase isolated from spinach leaves. 相似文献

To determine how microbody proteins enter microbodies, we have previously compared the genes for the cytosolic and glycosomal (microbody) phosphoglycerate kinases (PGKs) of Trypanosoma brucei and found the microbody enzyme to differ from other PGKs and the cytosolic form in two respects: a high net positive charge and a C-terminal extension of 20 amino acids (Osinga et al., 1985). Here we present the comparison of the genes for the cytosolic and glycosomal PGKs of Crithidia fasciculata, another kinetoplastid organism. The amino acid sequences of the two Crithidia isoenzymes are virtually identical, except for a C-terminal extension of 38 amino acids. We conclude that this extension must direct the glycosomal PGK to the glycosome. The extensions of the Crithidia and Trypanosoma enzymes are both rich in small hydrophobic and hydroxyl amino acids. 相似文献

Subcellular distribution of enzymes of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway in root and leaf tissues 总被引:13,自引:3,他引:10
The subcellular distribution of enzymes of the oxidative pentose phosphate
pathway was studied in plants. Root and leaf tissues from several species
were separated by differential centrifugation into plastidic and cytosolic
fractions. In all tissues studied, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and
6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase were found in both plastidic and cytosolic
compartments. In maize and pea root, and spinach and pea leaf, the
non-oxidative enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway (transaldolase,
transketolase, ribose 5-phosphate isomerase, ribulose 5-phosphate
3-epimerase) appear to be restricted to the plastid. In tobacco leaf and
root, however, the non-oxidative enzymes were found in the cytosolic as
well as the plastidic compartments. In the absence of ribose 5-phosphate
isomerase and ribulose 5-phosphate 3-epimerase in the cytosol, the product
of the oxidative limb of the pathway (ribulose 5-phosphate) must be
transported into a compartment capable of utilizing it. Ribulose
5-phosphate was supplied to isolated intact pea root plastids and was shown
to be capable of supporting nitrite reduction. The kinetics of ribulose
5-phosphate-driven nitrite reduction in isolated pea root plastids
suggested that the metabolite was translocated across the plastid envelope
in a carrier-mediated transport process, indicating the presence of a
translocator capable of transporting pentose phosphates.Keywords:

Besides its importance as model organism in eukaryotic cell biology, yeast species have also developed into an attractive host for the expression, processing, and secretion of recombinant proteins. Here we investigated foreign protein secretion in four distantly related yeasts (Candida glabrata, Pichia pastoris, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe) by using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a reporter and a viral secretion signal sequence derived from the K28 preprotoxin (pptox), the precursor of the yeast K28 virus toxin. In vivo expression of GFP fused to the N-terminal pptox leader sequence and/or expression of the entire pptox gene was driven either from constitutive (PGK1 and TPI1) or from inducible and/or repressible (GAL1, AOX1, and NMT1) yeast promoters. In each case, GFP entered the secretory pathway of the corresponding host cell; confocal fluorescence microscopy as well as sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western analysis of cell-free culture supernatants confirmed that GFP was efficiently secreted into the culture medium. In addition to the results seen with GFP, the full-length viral pptox was correctly processed in all four yeast genera, leading to the secretion of a biologically active virus toxin. Taken together, our data indicate that the viral K28 pptox signal sequence has the potential for being used as a unique tool in recombinant protein production to ensure efficient protein secretion in yeast. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: A paucity of coxsackie adenovirus receptor (CAR) hampers the adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5)-based vector-mediated gene transfer into malignant hematopoietic cells. Fiber-retargeted adenoviral vectors with species B tropism can potentially bypass the CAR requirement and facilitate efficient gene transfer into malignant hematopoietic cells. METHODS: For feasible generation of fiber-retargeted adenoviral vectors, we have modified the versatile AdEasy system with a chimeric fiber gene encoding the Ad5 fiber tail domain and Ad35 fiber shaft and knob domains. An Ad5-based vector encoding the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene under the control of the PGK promoter with Ad35 fiber receptor specificity was generated (Ad5F35-GFP). The Ad5F35-GFP vector-mediated gene transfer efficiency was compared with a fiber non-modified Ad5-GFP vector, which also encodes the GFP gene under the control of the PGK promoter. RESULTS: We demonstrated that a variety of Ad5-refractory malignant myeloid and B lymphoid cell lines were highly permissive to the Ad5F35-GFP vector infection. Importantly, primary chronic myeloid leukemic (CML) cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells were superiorly transduced by the Ad5F35-GFP vector at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 100 compared with the Ad5-GFP vector. CONCLUSIONS: Our study will facilitate the generation of fiber-retargeted adenoviral vectors and enable transient genetic manipulation of primary malignant hematopoietic cells. 相似文献

* Transgenic plants expressing either green fluorescent protein (GFP)-genomic DNA or GFP-cDNA fusions have been used as powerful tools to define the subcellular localization of many proteins. Because most plant cells are highly vacuolated, the cytosol is confined to a thin layer at the periphery of the cells, making it very difficult to distinguish among cell wall, cell membrane and cytosolic GFP-fusion proteins. * Plasmolysis tests inform about cell-wall localization of GFP-tagged proteins, but they do not discriminate between its cell membrane and/or cytoplasmic localization. By observing the GFP signal in transgenic protoplasts placed at a hypotonic solution, it was possible to distinguish between cell membrane and cytosolic GFP-tagged proteins. * The osmotic disruption of the protoplast vacuole in the hypotonic solution allows the diffusion of the GFP signal from the cell periphery to the central part of the cell volume when the GFP is fused to a soluble protein. By contrast, such diffusion does not occur when the protein under study is attached to the cell membrane. * The present method is easier, faster and cheaper than subcellular fractionating studies and/or immunoelectron microscopy, which have been traditionally used to discern between cell membrane and cytosolic proteins. 相似文献

Continuous translocation of Rac2 and the NADPH oxidase component p67(phox) during phagocytosis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

In this study, the translocation of the NADPH oxidase components p67(phox) and Rac2 was studied during phagocytosis in living cells. For this purpose, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged versions of these proteins were expressed in the myeloid cell line PLB-985. First, the correct localization of p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 was shown during phagocytosis of serum-treated zymosan by wild-type PLB-985 cells and PLB-985 X-CGD (chronic granulomatous disease) cells, which lack expression of flavocytochrome b(558). Subsequently, these constructs were used for fluorescence recovery after photobleaching studies to elucidate the turnover of these proteins on the phagosomal membrane. The turnover of p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 proved to be very high, indicating a continuous exchange of flavocytochrome b(558)-bound p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 for cytosolic, free p67GFP and GFP-Rac2. Furthermore, the importance of an intact actin cytoskeleton for correct localization of these proteins was investigated by disrupting the actin cytoskeleton with cytochalasin B. However, cytochalasin B treatment of PLB-985 cells did not alter the localization of p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 once phagocytosis was initiated. In addition, the continuous exchange of flavocytochrome b(558)-bound p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 for cytosolic p67GFP and GFP-Rac2 was still intact in cytochalasin B-treated cells, indicating that the translocation of these proteins does not depend on a rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. 相似文献

Topogenesis of microbody enzymes: a sequence comparison of the genes for the glycosomal (microbody) and cytosolic phosphoglycerate kinases of Trypanosoma brucei. 总被引:24,自引:6,他引:18

To determine how microbody enzymes enter microbodies, we are studying the genes for cytosolic and glycosomal (microbody) isoenzymes in Trypanosoma brucei. We have found three genes (A, B and C) coding for phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) in a tandem array in T. brucei. Gene B codes for the cytosolic and gene C for the glycosomal isoenzyme. Genes B and C are 95% homologous, and the predicted protein sequences share approximately 45% amino acid homology with other eukaryote PGKs. The microbody isoenzyme differs from the cytosolic form and other PGKs in two respects: a high positive charge and a carboxy-terminal extension of 20 amino acids. Our results show that few alterations are required to redirect a protein from cytosol to microbody. From a comparison of our results with the unpublished data for three other glycosomal glycolytic enzymes we infer that the high positive charge represents the major topogenic signal for uptake of proteins into glycosomes. 相似文献

Chloroplast and cytosolic triosephosphate isomerases from spinach were separated and purified to homogeneity. Both enzymes were partially sequenced by Edman degradation. Using degenerate primers designed against the amino acid sequences, a homologous probe for the chloroplast enzyme was amplified and used to isolate several full-size cDNA clones. Chloroplast triosephosphate isomerase is encoded by a single gene in spinach. Analysis of the chloroplast cDNA sequence in the context of its homologues from eukaryotes and eubacteria reveals that the gene arose through duplication of its pre-existing nuclear counterpart for the cytosolic enzyme during plant evolution.Abbreviations TPI
