Treatment of isolated canine renal Na,K-ATPase with a stable diazomethane analog, 4-(diazomethyl)-7-(diethylamino)-coumarin (DEAC), results in enzyme inactivation. The inactivation rate was dramatically increased when the enzyme was treated with DEAC in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ (in imidazole buffer) or Pi and Mg2+, conditions which produce enzyme phosphorylation. Inactivation in the presence of Pi and Mg2+ could be partially prevented by Na+ and almost completely prevented by K+. The quantity of DEAC covalently bound to the Na,K-ATPase was determined spectrophotometrically. The extent of inactivation was linearly related to the amount of K-protectable DEAC incorporation. Complete inactivation of ATPase activity occurred with 2.14 +/- 0.18 nmol of DEAC covalently bound/mg of protein. This suggests that only 1 or 2 carboxyl residues/catalytic center (estimated by high affinity ADP binding) are involved in the modification leading to inactivation. The modified enzyme exhibited normal levels of high affinity [3H]ADP (and hence ATP) binding, thus, the nucleotide-binding domain of the enzyme seems unaffected by the modification. In contrast, under conditions where native enzyme was able to occlude 3.82 nmol of K+ ions/mg of protein, DEAC-modified enzyme occluded only 0.33 nmol of K+ ions. Na+ occlusion by the enzyme (in the presence of oligomycin) was also reduced (by 80%) following treatment with DEAC. Phosphorylation by [32P]inorganic phosphate and Na(+)-activated phosphorylation of the modified enzyme with [32P]ATP yielded reduced levels of phosphoenzyme (about 36%) compared to native enzyme. The DEAC-modified [32P]phosphoenzyme formed from [32P]ATP was insensitive to the addition of K+ ions, under conditions which led to the rapid hydrolysis of native phosphoenzyme. Gel electrophoresis of modified protein revealed strong fluorescence labeling of the alpha-subunit, which was substantially reduced if treatment with DEAC was performed in the presence of K+ ions. Partial tryptic digestion and electrophoretic analysis revealed normal degradation patterns in the presence of ADP (E1 form) but the typical patterns, seen with K+ ions (E2K) or Na+ ions (E1Na) in native enzyme, were absent. A typical E2-like tryptic degradation pattern was seen, however, in the presence of vanadate ions and ouabain, suggesting that the modification does not freeze the enzyme in an E1 conformation and that the enzyme is still able to undergo the E1E2 conformational transition after modification. Our results suggest that a small number of carboxyl residues in the sodium pump alpha-subunit (perhaps one) are essential for K+ and Na+ binding and stabilizing the occluded enzyme cation forms. Esterification of the carboxyl groups by DEAC inactivates the enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a candidate oncolytic virus that replicates and induces cell death in cancer cells while sparing normal cells. Although defects in the interferon antiviral response facilitate VSV oncolysis, other host factors, including translational and growth regulatory mechanisms, also appear to influence oncolytic virus activity. We previously demonstrated that VSV infection induces apoptosis in proliferating CD4(+) T lymphocytes from adult T-cell leukemia samples but not in resting T lymphocytes or primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells that remain arrested in G(0). Activation of primary CD4(+) T lymphocytes with anti-CD3/CD28 is sufficient to induce VSV replication and cell death in a manner dependent on activation of the MEK1/2, c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase, or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway but not p38. VSV replication is specifically impaired by the cell cycle inhibitor olomoucine or rapamycin, which induces early G(1) arrest, but not by aphidicolin or Taxol, which blocks at the G(1)1S or G(2)1M phase, respectively; this result suggests a requirement for cell cycle entry for efficient VSV replication. The relationship between increased protein translation following G(0)/G(1) transition and VSV permissiveness is highlighted by the absence of mTOR and/or eIF4E phosphorylation whenever VSV replication is impaired. Furthermore, VSV protein production in activated T cells is diminished by small interfering RNA-mediated eIF4E knockdown. These results demonstrate that VSV replication in primary T lymphocytes relies on cell cycle transition from the G(0) phase to the G(1) phase, which is characterized by a sharp increase in ribogenesis and protein synthesis. 相似文献

Ants are key indicators of ecological change, but few studies have investigated how ant assemblages respond to dramatic changes in vegetation structure in temperate forests. Pests and pathogens are causing widespread loss of dominant canopy tree species; ant species composition and abundance may be very sensitive to such losses. Before the experimental removal of red oak trees to simulate effects of sudden oak death and examine the long-term impact of oak loss at the Black Rock Forest (Cornwall, NY), we carried out a rapid assessment of the ant assemblage in a 10-ha experimental area. We also determined the efficacy in a northern temperate forest of five different collecting methods--pitfall traps, litter samples, tuna fish and cookie baits, and hand collection--routinely used to sample ants in tropical systems. A total of 33 species in 14 genera were collected and identified; the myrmecines, Aphaenogaster rudis and Myrmica punctiventris, and the formicine Formica neogagates were the most common and abundant species encountered. Ninety-four percent (31 of 33) of the species were collected by litter sampling and structured hand sampling together, and we conclude that, in combination, these two methods are sufficient to assess species richness and composition of ant assemblages in northern temperate forests. Using new, unbiased estimators, we project that 38-58 ant species are likely to occur at Black Rock Forest. Loss of oak from these forests may favor Camponotus species that nest in decomposing wood and open habitat specialists in the genus Lasius. 相似文献

The period of dormancy in "seed cloves" of garlic (Allium sativumL.) under storage was determined by measuring the growth ofthe "first foliar leaf" and its sprouting capacity. The endogenouscontents of growth inhibitors and gibberellins were also measuredby bioassays. Dormancy of garlic bulbs can be characterizedby lack of gibberellin and a presence of moderate contents ofgrowth inhibitors. (Received October 26, 1982; Accepted August 25, 1983) 相似文献

Samples of semen and cervical mucus were provided by 18 couples. Cervical mucus was obtained for each day possible and stored at 4 degrees C until all the samples were collected. Flat capillary tubes were loaded with the mucous samples and spermatozoa from the husband's semen sample were allowed to migrate through the cervical mucus (3 cm column) into culture medium. The spermatozoa recovered after migration through cervical mucus were assayed in vitro with zona-free hamster oocytes. Control experiments were carried out using spermatozoa from the same semen sample but prepared by the swimming-up technique. Altogether, 557 eggs in the control group and 1236 eggs in the experimental group were analysed, and the results demonstrated that the % of sperm penetration, the mean number of sperm decondensations per penetrated egg and the mean number of spermatozoa adhering per egg all had higher values (P less than 0.05) for the control samples than for the experimental samples. We suggest that cervical mucus modifies human spermatozoa, as measured by their interaction with zona-free hamster oocytes. 相似文献

Mouse models that recapitulate the full phenotypic spectrum of a psychiatric disorder, such as schizophrenia, are impossible. However, a more piecemeal recreation of phenotypic components is feasible and promises to harness the power of animal models using approaches that are either off limits or confounded by drug treatment in humans. In that context, animal models will have a central and indispensable role in the process of discovering the causes of psychiatric disorders and generating novel, mechanism-based treatments. Here, we discuss current approaches used to generate animal models of psychiatric disorders, address the different components of these disorders that can be modeled in animals, and describe currently available analytical tools. We also discuss accumulating empirical data and take an in-depth look at what we believe to be the future of animal models made possible by recent advances in psychiatric genetics. 相似文献

Dormancy in garlic cv. Rosado Paraguayo was studied during plantontogeny in relation to endogenous growth regulators and bulb-forming.The differentiation of seed cloves began coincidently with abulb-forming rate of 0.47 and a lack of gibberellin and moderateinhibitor activities. This hormone levels remained at harvest,when the seed cloves, which had completed their final size,were unable to sprout. Considering these and previous results,the lack of gibberellin like promoters could be the main factorwhich controls dormancy in garlic. (Received May 7, 1985; Accepted November 26, 1985) 相似文献
