Heme a was not detected either in mitochondria isolated from copper-deficient yeast or in the intact cells. Nevertheless, the intracellular concentration of free porphyrins indicated that the pathway of porphyrin and heme synthesis was not impaired in copper-deficient cells. The immunoprecipitated apo-oxidase from copper-deficient cells revealed an absorption spectrum with maxima at 645, 592, 559, 519 and 423 nm, similar to that of purified porphyrin a. When solubilized mitochondria from [3H]leucine and δ-amino[14C]levulinic acid-labeled copper-deficient yeast cells were incubated with rabbit antiserum against cytochrome c oxidase, a precipitate was obtained. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of this immunoprecipitate showed [3H]leucine associated with six bands and δ-amino[14C]levulinic acid resolved in a single band. HCl fractionation of copper-deficient mitochondria labeled with δ-amino[14C]levulinic acid showed a high specific radioactivity in the fraction extracted by 20% HCl, a solvent which extracts porphyrin a. Thinlayer chromatography of the radioactivity found in 20% HCl showed an RF value identical to that of purified porphyrin a. When δ-amino[3H]levulinic acid-labeled, copper-deficient yeast cells are grown in copper-supplemented medium, the porphyrin a accumulated in copper-deficient cells wa converted into heme a, and this conversion was prevented by cycloheximidine.These observations suggest that porphyrin a is present in the apo-oxidase of copper-deficient cells, but that the conversion to heme a does not occur. This conversion reaction appears to be a point in the biosynthetic pathway of cytochrome c oxidase which is blocked by copper deficieny. 相似文献

Hypotonic treatment of rabbit epididymal spermatozoa in 10 mM phosphate buffer disrupts the plasma membrane and removes the cytoplasmic droplet from those cells to which it is still attached. There is, however, no effect on the mitochondria, which retain their helical configuration around the axial filament complex, have intact inner and outer membranes, and show the same cristal morphology as do the mitochondria in untreated cells. Hypotonically treated spermatozoa respire with added malate-pyruvate, succinate, and ascorbate plus N,N′-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine, but not with added fructose or NADH. Respiration is inhibited by oligomycin and stimulated by uncoupler, showing that the mitochondria have retained their capacity for energy conservation. The uncoupled respiration rate is not further stimulated by added cytochrome c. Reduced-minus-oxidized difference spectra obtained at −196 °C of the hypotonically treated cells show a full complement of cytochromes, including cytochrome c. This result implies that the cytochrome c lost from mammalian spermatozoa on storage or chilling [Mann, T. (1951) Biochem. J. 48, 386–388] is cytoplasmic cytochrome c not yet incorporated into the mitochondria. The mitochondrial cytochrome c remains firmly held inside the intact outer membrane. 相似文献

This research reports the sensitivity of a clinical isolate of Enterococcus faecalis to sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate (sarkosyl) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), as well as the efficiency of these detergents
in curing the strain. Compared to Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis was very sensitive to both detergents, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for the latter being 100 times lower
than for Escherichia coli. The clinical isolate of Enterococcus faecalis used in this study exhibited plasmid-borne resistance to kanamycin (MIC 2 mg/ml) and tetracycline (MIC 50 μg/ml); 3% curing
was observed after growth in the presence of sarkosyl but no curing was observed after growth in the presence of either SDS
or acridine orange. In contrast, 35% curing of plasmid-bearing Escherichia coli was observed after growth in the presence of either SDS or acridine orange, but none was observed after growth in the presence
of sarkosyl. 相似文献

Three L-lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes were detected in saffron corms, using potassium ferricyanide as the electron acceptor. Their pH optima were 5.5, 7.5 and 9.5, respectively. All three dehydrogenases were substrate-inhibited by ferricyanide, but at different concentrations; maximum enzymatic activity was observed for 250, 100 and 600 M ferricyanide, at pH 5.5, 7.5 and 9.5, respectively. Catalytic efficiency, calculated per mg corm extract protein, was 1.9, 1.0 and 0.4 min-1, respectively at pH 5.5, 7.5 and 9.5. Pseudo first order rate constant was also different under the three pH conditions. Malate was an inhibitor for the isoenzyme active at pH 9.5, but had no effect on the others. 相似文献

Crocus sativus L., cultivated since ancient times as the source of saffron, is a triploid plant that can be propagated only via its corms
which undergo a period of dormancy. Understanding the processes taking place in the corm is essential to preserve the plant
and improve its quality. Color and taste being of prime importance in the quality of the saffron spice, knowledge on polyphenol
oxidase (PPO) activity in the plant is of particular interest given the role of the enzyme in fruit and vegetable browning
during processing and during the storage of processed food. In this paper, PPO activity was investigated for the first time
in extracts obtained from dormant C. sativus L. corms. PPO activity was detectable using l-DOPA, pyrogallol, catechol or p-cresol as substrate, each being oxidized to its corresponding o-quinone; no activity was detectable with l-tyrosine, tyramine or phenol as substrate. Two pH optima, respectively at 4.5 and 6.7, were observed with all substrates
and a third one, at 8.5, was found with l-DOPA and p-cresol. Kinetics parameters studied at pH 6.7 indicated the highest catalytic efficiency (in units mg−1 prot mM−1) with pyrogallol: 150, then catechol: 39, l-DOPA: 6.4 and p-cresol: 4.6. The enzymatic activity was inhibited by 50% in the presence of 0.22, 0.35, 0.5 and 0.7 mM kojic acid with, respectively,
catechol, pyrogallol, p-cresol and l-DOPA as substrate. When stained for PPO activity, non-denaturing gel electropherograms of extract revealed three distinct
bands, indicating the presence of multiple isoenzymes in dormant C. sativus L. corms. 相似文献
