Stimulatory GTP-binding Protein (Gs) and adenylate cyclase prepared from bovine brain cortices were co-reconstituted into asolectin vesicles with or without 1000-fold transmembrane Ca2+ gradient. The results showed that both basal activity and Gs-stimulated activity of adenylate cyclase were highest in proteoliposomes with a transmembrane Ca2+ gradient similar to physiological condition (1 M Ca2+ outside and 1 mM Ca2+ inside) and lowest when the transmembrane Ca2+ gradient was in the inverse direction. Such a difference could be diminished following dissipation of the transmembrane Ca2+ gradient by A23187. Comparable conformational changes of Gs in proteoliposomes were also observed when Gs was labeled with the fluorescence probe, acrylodan. These results may indicate that a proper transmembrane Ca2+ gradient is essential not only for higher adenylate cyclase activity but also for its stimulation by Gs. 相似文献

白细胞介素对大鼠离体垂体前叶细胞增殖的影响 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
本工作采用大鼠垂体前叶(AP)细胞原代培养方法,以3HTdR掺入率反映细胞增殖水平,研究了IL1和IL6对AP细胞增殖的影响。结果表明:(1)IL1(1-100ng/ml)促进雄性大鼠和雌性大鼠AP细胞的增殖。(2)低浓度的IL6(0.1ng/ml)抑制雄性大鼠的AP细胞的增殖,而较高浓度的IL6(1-10ng/ml)则表现为刺激作用。(3)IL6(0.1-10ng/ml)促进雌性大鼠AP细胞的增殖。上述结果说明IL1和IL6除直接调控AP细胞的分泌外,也参与调节AP细胞增殖活动。 相似文献

T-Hg-T base pair formation has been demonstrated to be compatible with duplex DNA context, with considerable thermal stability contribution. Here, the T-Hg-T stem in two small DNAzymes 8–17 and 10–23 was studied for its structural and functional roles. The recognition arm 5′ to the cleavage site of 10–23 DNAzyme complex and the stem in the catalytic loop of 8–17 DNAzyme could be replaced by consecutive T-Hg-T stem of different length. The linear relationship between the activity of the complex 10–23DZ-6T+D19–6T and the concentration of Hg2+ demonstrated that the T-Hg-T stem contributes thermal stability of the recognition arm binding. The effect of T-Hg-T stem in the catalytic core of 8–17 DNAzyme and the position-dependent effect in 10–23 DNAzyme demonstrated that T-Hg-T base pair is not compatible with canonical base pairs in playing the functions of nucleic acids. 相似文献

Objective
Three common X-ray repair cross-complementing groups 1 (XRCC1) polymorphisms, Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, and Arg280His, have been reported to be implicated in the development of leukemia. However, previous results from different studies were inconsistent. Consequently, we performed a meta-analysis in order to accurately evaluate the association between XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, and Arg280His polymorphisms and leukemia risk.Methods
Through computerized searching of PubMed, ISI Web of Knowledge, Cochrane, EBSCO, and OpenGrey databases, and manually searching relevant references, a total of 19 studies with 3387 cases and 6168 controls for Arg399Gln (G>A) polymorphism, 12 studies with 2043 cases and 4550 controls for Arg194Trp (C>T), and 6 studies with 1445 cases and 1905 controls for Arg280His (G>A) were collected to perform meta-analysis and stratified analysis to explore the associations between these variants and leukemia susceptibility. Based on three genetic models, the codominant model, dominant model and recessive model, odds ratios (ORs) as well as their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the association strength between XRCC1 genotypes and leukemia risk.Results
With respect to overall leukemia susceptibility, no association was detected. In stratified analyses by tumor type, Arg399Gln was associated with higher acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) risk (AA vs. GG, OR = 1.50, 95% CI: 1.11-2.02; AA+GA vs. GG, OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.02-1.78). Additionally, Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, and Arg280His may influence the susceptibilities of some leukemia type and race populations.Conclusion
This meta-analysis indicates these three polymorphisms of XRCC1 do not associate with overall leukemia risks but could be associated with the risks for some specific subgroups. 相似文献6.
Background and Aims
Aluminium is toxic in acid soils because the soluble Al3+ inhibits root growth. A mechanism of Al3+ tolerance discovered in many plant species involves the release of organic anions from root apices. The Al3+-activated release of citrate from the root apices of Al3+-tolerant genotypes of barley is controlled by a MATE gene named HvAACT1 that encodes a citrate transport protein located on the plasma membrane. The aim of this study was to investigate whether expressing HvAACT1 with a constitutive promoter in barley and wheat can increase citrate efflux and Al3+ tolerance of these important cereal species.Methods HvAACT1
was over-expressed in wheat (Triticum aestivum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) using the maize ubiquitin promoter. Root apices of transgenic and control lines were analysed for HvAACT1 expression and organic acid efflux. The Al3+ tolerance of transgenic and control lines was assessed in both hydroponic solution and acid soil.Key Results and Conclusions
Increased HvAACT1 expression in both cereal species was associated with increased citrate efflux from root apices and enhanced Al3+ tolerance, thus demonstrating that biotechnology can complement traditional breeding practices to increase the Al3+ tolerance of important crop plants. 相似文献7.

Phosphohistidine phosphatase 1 (PHPT1) is the first protein histidine phosphatase identified in vertebrates. The NMR assignments
of human PHPT1 are essential for solution structure determination and NMR study of the protein interactions of PHPT1 with

It is generally thought that activation of phospholipase Cbeta (PLCbeta) by Galphaq accounts for most of the effects of Gq-coupled receptors. Here we describe a novel effect of Galphaq that is independent of the PLCbeta pathway. Expression of the constitutively active Galphaq mutant Galphaq(Q209L) promoted an increase in glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) activity that was associated with increased phosphorylation of Tyr216 on GSK-3beta. Galphaq(Q209L)-AA, a mutant that cannot activate PLCbeta, also induced GSK-3beta activation and phosphorylation of Tyr216. We speculate that the protein-tyrosine kinase Csk (C-terminal Src kinase), which is also activated by Galphaq(Q209L) and Galphaq(Q209L)-AA, acts upstream of GSK-3beta. Expression of Csk accentuated the activation of GSK-3beta by Galphaq(Q209L), whereas catalytically inactive Csk blocked GSK-3beta activation by Galphaq(Q209L). Recombinant Csk phosphorylated and activated GSK-3beta in vitro, and GSK-3beta coprecipitated with Csk from cell lysates. These results suggest that activation of Csk and GSK-3beta by Galphaq may contribute to the physiological and pathological effects of Gq-coupled receptors. 相似文献
