The hallmark of the annexin super family of proteins is Ca(2+)-dependent binding to phospholipid bilayers, a property that resides in the conserved core domain of these proteins. Despite the structural similarity between the core domains, studies reported herein showed that annexins A1, A2, A5, and B12 could be divided into two groups with distinctively different Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-binding properties. The division correlates with the ability of the annexins to form Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-bound trimers. Site-directed spin-labeling and Forster resonance energy transfer experimental approaches confirmed the well-known ability of annexins A5 and B12 to form trimers, but neither method detected self-association of annexin A1 or A2 on bilayers. Studies of chimeras in which the N-terminal and core domains of annexins A2 and A5 were swapped showed that trimer formation was mediated by the core domain. The trimer-forming annexin A5 and B12 group had the following Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-binding properties: (1) high Ca(2+) stoichiometry for membrane binding ( approximately 12 mol of Ca(2+)/mol of protein); (2) binding to membranes was very exothermic (> -60 kcal/ mol of protein); and (3) binding to bilayers that were in the liquid-crystal phase but not to bilayers in the gel phase. In contrast, the nontrimer-forming annexin A1 and A2 group had the following Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-binding properties: (1) lower Ca(2+) stoichiometry for membrane binding (相似文献

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is employed to reveal the morphological changes of the supported phospholipid bilayers hydrolyzed by a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzyme in a buffer solution at room temperature. Based on the high catalytic selectivity of PLA2 toward l-enantiomer phospholipids, five kinds of supported bilayers made of l- and d-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholines (DPPC), including l-DPPC (upper leaflet adjacent to solution)/l-DPPC (bottom leaflet) (or l/l in short), l/d, d/l, d/d, and racemic ld/ld, were prepared on a mica surface in gel-phase, to explicate the kinetics and mechanism of the enzyme-induced hydrolysis reaction in detail. AFM observations for the l/l bilayer show that the hydrolysis rate for l-DPPC is significantly increased by PLA2 and most of the hydrolysis products desorb from substrate surface in 40 min. As d-enantiomers are included in the bilayer, the hydrolysis rate is largely decreased in comparison with the l/l bilayer. The time used to hydrolyze the as-prepared bilayers by PLA2 increases in the sequence of l/l, l/d, ld/ld, and d/l (d/d is inert to the enzyme action). d-enantiomers in the enantiomer hybrid bilayers remain on the mica surface at the end of the hydrolysis reaction. It was confirmed that the hydrolysis reaction catalyzed by PLA2 preferentially occurs at the edges of pits or defects on the bilayer surface. The bilayer structures are preserved during the hydrolysis process. Based on these observations, a novel kinetics model is proposed to quantitatively account for the PLA2-catalyzed hydrolysis of the supported phospholipid bilayers. The model simulation demonstrates that PLA2 mainly binds with lipids at the perimeter of defects in the upper leaflet and leads to a hydrolysis reaction, yielding species soluble to the solution phase. The lipid molecules underneath subsequently flip up to the upper leaflet to maintain the hydrophilicity of the bilayer structure. Our analysis shows that d-enantiomers in the hybrid bilayers considerably reduce the hydrolysis rate by its ineffective binding with PLA2. 相似文献

Pigmentation disorders are attributed to excessive melanin which can be produced by tyrosinase. Therefore, tyrosinase is supposed to be a vital target for the treatment of disorders associated with overpigmentation. Based on our previous findings that an (E)-β-phenyl-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl scaffold can play a key role in the inhibition of tyrosinase activity, and the fact that cinnamic acid is a safe natural substance with a scaffolded structure, it was speculated that appropriate cinnamic acid derivatives may exhibit potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Thus, ten cinnamamides were designed, and synthesized by using a Horner-Emmons olefination as the key step. Cinnamamides 4 (93.72% inhibition), 9 (78.97% inhibition), and 10 (59.09% inhibition) with either a 2,4-dihydroxyphenyl, or 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl substituent showed much higher mushroom tyrosinase inhibition at 25?µM than kojic acid (18.81% inhibition), used as a positive control. Especially, the two cinnamamides 4 and 9 having a 2,4-dihydroxyphenyl group showed the strongest inhibition. Docking simulation with tyrosinase revealed that these three cinnamamides, 4, 9, and 10, bind to the active site of tyrosinase more strongly than kojic acid. Cell-based experiments carried out using B16F10 murine skin melanoma cells demonstrated that all three cinnamamides effectively inhibited cellular tyrosinase activity and melanin production in the cells without cytotoxicity. There was a close correlation between cellular tyrosinase activity and melanin content, indicating that the inhibitory effect of the three cinnamamides on melanin production is mainly attributed to their capability for cellular tyrosinase inhibition. These results imply that cinnamamides having the (E)-β-phenyl-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl scaffolds are promising candidates for skin-lighting agents. 相似文献

黄土丘陵区不同侵蚀环境下土壤有机碳对植被恢复的响应 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
植被恢复是提高土壤有机碳累积和储存的重要措施。以黄土丘陵区两个典型侵蚀环境下的小流域即黄土区坊塌流域和砒砂岩区满红沟流域退耕坡面为研究对象,分析了土壤有机碳含量(SOCC)、有机碳密度(SOCD)在同一侵蚀环境不同群落下的变化以及在同一群落不同侵蚀环境间的差异,旨在探明不同侵蚀环境下土壤有机碳对植被恢复的响应。结果表明:1)同一侵蚀环境下,与坡耕地相比,自然恢复方式下退耕地植被恢复初期SOCC、SOCD均显著降低,之后随植被恢复均显著升高(P0.05);人工恢复方式下退耕地20—25年柠条锦鸡儿群落和13—14年刺槐群落SOCC、SOCD均显著升高(P0.05),说明同一侵蚀环境内,退耕地在两种恢复方式下均能显著提高土壤有机碳累积和储存。2)同一侵蚀环境下,与相近恢复年限的自然恢复群落相比,刺槐群落SOCC、SOCD均显著高于长芒草+铁杆蒿群落(P0.05),砒砂岩区柠条锦鸡儿群落SOCC、SOCD均显著低于铁杆蒿群落(P0.05),黄土区柠条锦鸡儿群落SOCC显著低于而SOCD显著高于铁杆蒿群落(P0.05),说明相同恢复时间内,相对于自然恢复方式,人工刺槐造林在两种侵蚀环境下均能累积与储存较多的土壤有机碳,而柠条锦鸡儿造林在两种侵蚀环境下累积土壤有机碳的效果均不佳,在黄土区储存土壤有机碳效果好于砒砂岩区。3)同一群落下,黄土区人工和自然恢复群落SOCC均高于砒砂岩区;黄土区人工恢复群落SOCD均显著高于而自然恢复群落SOCD均低于砒砂岩区(P0.05),说明黄土区人工恢复累积和储存土壤有机碳及自然恢复累积土壤有机碳的效果较好,而砒砂岩区自然恢复储存土壤有机碳的效果较好。 相似文献

A plasmon waveguide resonance (PWR) sensor is proposed for studying the interaction between gold nanoparticles and proteins. The ability of the PWR sensor to operate in both TM and TE Polarizations, i.e. its polarization diversity, facilitates the simultaneous spectroscopy of the nanoparticles surface reactions using both polarizations. The response of each polarization to streptavidin‐biotin binding at the surface of gold nanoparticles is investigated in real time. Finally, using the principles of multimode spectroscopy, the nanoparticle's surface reactions are decoupled from the bulk solution refractive index variations.

β-Elemene, (5S,7R,10S)-(−)-(1-methyl-1-vinyl-2,4-diisopropenylcyclohexane), is an anticancer agent from traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Three
novel 99mTc(CO)3–β-elemene conjugates were synthesized successfully, and compared with β-elemene exhibited improved water solubility. A biodistribution
and micro single photon emission computed tomography image study showed there is a visible accumulation in Lewis lung cancer
tumors.
