A new function for tubulin was described by our laboratory: acetylated tubulin forms a complex with Na+,K +-ATPase (NKA) and inhibits its activity. This process was shown to be a regulatory factor of physiological importance in cultured cells, human erythrocytes, and several rat tissues. Formation of the acetylated tubulin–NKA complex is reversible. We demonstrated that in cultured cells, high concentrations of glucose induce translocation of acetylated tubulin from cytoplasm to plasma membrane with a consequent inhibition of NKA activity. This effect is reversed by adding glutamate, which is coctransported to the cell with Na +. Another posttranslational modification of tubulin, detyrosinated tubulin, is also involved in the regulation of NKA activity: it enhances the NKA inhibition induced by acetylated tubulin. Manipulation of the content of these modifications of tubulin could work as a new strategy to maintain homeostasis of Na + and K +, and to regulate a variety of functions in which NKA is involved, such as osmotic fragility and deformability of human erythrocytes. The results summarized in this review show that the interaction between tubulin and NKA plays an important role in cellular physiology, both in the regulation of Na +/K + homeostasis and in the rheological properties of the cells, which is mechanically different from other roles reported up to now. 相似文献

The effect of auxins, light and cellular production ofSolanum eleagnifolium Cav. calli were studied. 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (4.5 M) was the plant growth regulator used for calli initiation and this produced the highest solasodine concentration. The solasodine concentration in darkness was significantly lower than that achieved under a photoperiod of 16 h. Differentiated tissue obtained by adequate hormonal balance (several ratios of 3-indolebutyric acid to 6-benzylaminopurine) produced higher yields of solasodine than non-differentiated tissue. 3-indolebutyric acid (2.5 M) and 6-benzylaminopurine (8.8 M) increased the productivity of solasodine by 100%.Abbreviations BAP

The effect of inoculum size, carbon sources (fructose, glucose, maltose, sucrose), nitrate and ammonia on solasodine production by Solanum eleagnifolium Cav. was studied. The specific growth rate was estimated to be 0.15–0.20 d-1 with all sugars tested at a concentration of 90 mM. Sucrose (180 mM) produced the highest biomass value (about 2.8 mg DW ml-1) while the lowest one was produced by maltose. Although solasodine productivity values after 11 days of culture were similar for all sugars tested, the maximum values of productivity (0.9 mg g-1 d-1) were achieved after 6 days of culture with sucrose (180 mM). Solasodine productivity of cultures conducted with a large inoculum (20% w/v fresh material) was double that with a small inoculum (10% w/v fresh material). 相似文献

Callus tissues from different explants (hypocotyl, cotyledon, root, leaf and fruit) of Solanum eleagnifolium Cav. were cultured on a modified Murashige-Skoog medium, with 1 mg.1–1 2,4-D as the sole growth regulator. The presence of the alkaloid solasodine was determined by spectrophotometric and TLC methods. Its concentration ranged from 1.00 to 2.15 mg.g–1 DW. The calli from different explants showed a direct association between the solasodine production and their growth, although they have a different production rate. It was also observed that about the seventh week of culture the metabolite concentration decreased in all cases.Abbreviations 2,4-D

Treatment of skins of newborn mice with the neutral protease Dispase in order to separate dermis and epidermis causes pronounced changes in the levels of transglutaminase activity in the epidermis. Two soluble transglutaminases, one anionic enzyme and one cationic enzyme, of Mr approximately 90,000 and approximately 50,000, respectively, are extracted from epidermis; and the activities of both enzymes increase as a function of the time of Dispase treatment of skin. When the anionic Mr approximately 90,000 enzyme is incubated with Dispase after its chromatographic isolation from epidermal extracts, it is converted to a lower molecular weight enzyme. Hair follicles isolated from dermis prepared by a 12-h Dispase treatment of the skin of newborn mice contain two soluble cationic transglutaminases, one of which is indistinguishable from that of epidermis and the other which is not seen in epidermis. Both of these hair follicle enzymes are of Mr approximately 50,000 and appear to exist in monomeric form. They have been partially purified. Based upon these findings, we suggest that transglutaminase processing and control occur during normal differentiation of keratinocytes in epidermis and of hair follicle epidermal cells in dermis and that production of the proper forms of the enzyme may be essential to the formation of mature cornified envelopes and hair shafts, respectively. 相似文献

We have designed a simple, one‐step synthesis of CdSe quantum dots with photoluminescence frequencies ranging from the red through to the violet region of the solar spectrum. The photoluminescence peaks have FWHM of 30 nm indicating absorption over a narrow range of wavelengths. The effect of solvent type and solvent boiling point on the physical and photoluminescence properties of the quantum dots has been studied. High boiling point, non‐polar solvents shift the photoluminescence peak to longer wavelengths and low boiling point, polar solvents shift the photoluminescence peak to shorter wavelengths.

In order to explore the effect of electric charge on detergent solubilization of phospholipid bilayers, the interaction of nine electrically charged surfactants with neutral or electrically charged liposomes has been examined. The detergents belonged to the alkyl pyridinium, alkyl trimethylammonium or alkyl sulphate families. Large unilamellar liposomes formed by egg phosphatidylcholine plus or minus stearylamine or dicetyl phosphate were used. Solubilization was assessed as a decrease in light-scattering of the liposome suspensions. The results suggest that electrostatic forces do not play a significant role in the formation of mixed micelles and that hydrophobic interactions are by far the main forces involved in solubilization. In addition, from the study of thirty different liposome-surfactant systems, we have derived a series of empirical rules that may be useful in predicting the behaviour of untested surfactants: (i) the detergent concentration producing the onset of solubilization (Don) decreases as the alkyl chain length increases; the decrease follows a semi-logarithmic pattern in the case of alkyl pyridinium compounds; (ii) for surfactants with critical micellar concentrations (cmc) less than 6 x 10(-3) M, Don. is independent of the nature of the detergent and the bilayer composition; for detergents having cmc greater than 6 x 10(-3) M, Don. increases linearly with the cmc; and (iii) Don. varies linearly with the surfactant concentration that produces maximum solubilization. 相似文献

The synthesis of collagen by cells in culture is markedly affected by environmental pH. In human cells the optimum pH is above pH 7.6, while a mouse fibroblast, L 929, demonstrated a more acid pH optimum. These optima coincide with those for general protein synthesis and growth. The pH optima for some specific steps in collagen synthesis and assembly have also been examined. 相似文献
