Arabidopsis thaliana contains a large number of genes that encode carboxylic acid-activating enzymes, including nine long-chain fatty acyl-CoA synthetases, four 4-coumarate:CoA ligases (4CL), and 25 4CL-like proteins of unknown biochemical function. Because of their high structural and sequence similarity with bona fide 4CLs and their highly hydrophobic putative substrate-binding pockets, the 4CL-like proteins At4g05160 and At5g63380 were selected for detailed analysis. Following heterologous expression, the purified proteins were subjected to a large scale screen to identify their preferred in vitro substrates. This study uncovered a significant activity of At4g05160 with medium-chain fatty acids, medium-chain fatty acids carrying a phenyl substitution, long-chain fatty acids, as well as the jasmonic acid precursors 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid and 3-oxo-2-(2'-pentenyl)-cyclopentane-1-hexanoic acid. The closest homolog of At4g05160, namely At5g63380, showed high activity with long-chain fatty acids and 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid, the latter representing the most efficiently converted substrate. By using fluorescent-tagged variants, we demonstrated that both 4CL-like proteins are targeted to leaf peroxisomes. Collectively, these data demonstrate that At4g05160 and At5g63380 have the capacity to contribute to jasmonic acid biosynthesis by initiating the beta-oxidative chain shortening of its precursors. 相似文献

Protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP-1B) is the prototypic tyrosine phosphatase whose function in insulin signaling and metabolism is well established. Although the role of PTP-1B in dephosphorylating various cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases is clear, the mechanisms by which it modulates receptor function from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) remains an enigma. Here, we provide evidence that PTP-1B has an essential function in regulating the unfolded protein response in the ER compartment. The absence of PTP-1B caused impaired ER stress-induced IRE1 signaling. More specifically, JNK activation, XBP-1 splicing, and EDEM (ER degradation-enhancing alpha-mannosidase-like protein) gene induction, as well as ER stress-induced apoptosis, were attenuated in PTP-1B knock-out mouse embryonic fibroblasts in response to two ER stressors, tunicamycin and azetidine-2 carboxylic acid. We demonstrate that PTP-1B is not just a passive resident of the ER but on the contrary has an essential role in potentiating IRE1-mediated ER stress signaling pathways. 相似文献

Background
Bet v 1 is an important cause of hay fever in northern Europe. Bet v 1 isoforms from the European white birch (Betula pendula) have been investigated extensively, but the allergenic potency of other birch species is unknown. The presence of Bet v 1 and closely related PR-10 genes in the genome was established by amplification and sequencing of alleles from eight birch species that represent the four subgenera within the genus Betula. Q-TOF LC-MSE was applied to identify which PR-10/Bet v 1 genes are actually expressed in pollen and to determine the relative abundances of individual isoforms in the pollen proteome. 相似文献8.

This is an overview of the mutant strain Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 which produces solvents (acetone–butanol–ethanol, ABE) at elevated levels. This organism expresses high levels of amylases
when grown on starch. C. beijerinckii BA101 hydrolyzes starch effectively and produces solvent in the concentration range of 27–29 g l−1. C. beijerinckii BA101 has been characterized for both substrate and butanol inhibition. Supplementing the fermentation medium (MP2) with
sodium acetate enhances solvent production to 33 g l−1. The results of studies utilizing commercial fermentation medium and pilot plant-scale reactors are consistent with the results
using small-scale reactors. Pervaporation, a technique to recover solvents, has been applied to fed-batch reactors containing
C. beijerinckii BA101, and solvent production as high as 165 g l−1 has been achieved. Immobilization of C. beijerinckii BA101 by adsorption and use in a continuous reactor resulted in reactor productivity of 15.8 g l−1 h−1. Recent economic studies employing C. beijerinckii BA101 suggested that butanol can be produced at US$0.20–0.25 lb−1 by employing batch fermentation and distillative recovery. Application of new technologies such as pervaporation, fed-batch
culture, and immobilized cell reactors is expected to further reduce these prices.
