Abstract

Modification of soluble mitochondrial ATPase (factor F1) by spin-labelled iodoacetamide and spin-labelled methyleneketone does not cause and change in the catalytic properties of the enzyme. The temperature dependence of tau corr. of labels bound to factor F1 testifies to conformational changes in the enzyme at temperatures of 18--20 degrees C and 34--37 degrees C. At these temperature intervals, breaks are observed in the temperature dependence of the ATPase reaction rate in the Arrenius plot. The results obtained indicate that the thermally induced conformational changes in factor F1 affect large areas of the protein molecule. The interaction of factor F1 with the hydrophobic spin probes, namely fatty acid derivatives, was studied. It was shown that the interaction of foctor F1 with Mg2+, Mg-ATP, Mg-ADP and ADP, results in an increase in the ability of the enzyme to adsorb spin probes.

Functional interrogation of the kinome using nucleotide acyl phosphates.

The central role of protein kinases in signal transduction pathways has generated intense interest in targeting these enzymes for a wide range of therapeutic indications. Here we report a method for identifying and quantifying protein kinases in any biological sample or tissue from any species. The procedure relies on acyl phosphate-containing nucleotides, prepared from a biotin derivative and ATP or ADP. The acyl phosphate probes react selectively and covalently at the ATP binding sites of at least 75% of the known human protein kinases. Biotinylated peptide fragments from labeled proteomes are captured and then sequenced and identified using a mass spectrometry-based analysis platform to determine the kinases present and their relative levels. Further, direct competition between the probes and inhibitors can be assessed to determine inhibitor potency and selectivity against native protein kinases, as well as hundreds of other ATPases. The ability to broadly profile kinase activities in native proteomes offers an exciting prospect for both target discovery and inhibitor selectivity profiling.

Revised procedures for yeast metabolites extraction: application to a glucose pulse to carbon-limited yeast cultures, which reveals a transient activation of the purine salvage pathway.

In this study we have revised our original procedure of yeast metabolites extraction. We showed that: (a) less than 5% of intracellular metabolites leaks out during the step of rapid arrest of cellular metabolism by quenching yeast cells into a 60% methanol solution kept at -40 degrees C; and (b) with a few exception, the stability of metabolites were not altered during the 3 min boiling procedure in a buffered ethanol solution. However, there was a loss of external added metabolites of 5-30%, depending on the type of metabolites. This was mainly attributable to their retention on cellular debris after ethanol treatment, which prevented centrifugation of the cellular extracts before evaporation of ethanol. We further simplified our previous high-performance ionic chromatography (HPIC) techniques for easier, more reliable and robust quantitative measurements of organic acids, sugar phosphates and sugar nucleotides, and extended these techniques to purine and pyrimidine bases, using a variable wavelength detector set at 220 and 260 nm in tandem with a pulsed electrochemical or suppressed conductivity detector. These protocols were successfully applied to a glucose pulse to carbon-limited yeast cultures on purines metabolism. This study showed that glucose induced a fast activation of the purine salvage pathway, as indicated by a transient drop of ATP and ADP with a concomitant rise of IMP and inosine. This metabolic perturbation was accompanied by a rapid increase in the activity of the ISN1-encoded specific IMP-5'-nucleotidase. The mechanism of this activation remains to be determined.

Nucleotide recognition by the cytoplasmic domain of the human chloride transporter ClC-5.

The ubiquitous CBS domains, which are found as part of cytoplasmic domains in the ClC family of chloride channels and transporters, have previously been identified as building blocks for regulatory nucleotide-binding sites. Here we report the structures of the cytoplasmic domain of the human transporter ClC-5 in complex with ATP and ADP. The nucleotides bind to a specific site in the protein. As determined by equilibrium dialysis, the affinities for ATP, ADP and AMP are in the high micromolar range. Point mutations that interfere with nucleotide binding change the transport behavior of a ClC-5 mutant expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Our results establish the structural and energetic basis for the interaction of ClC-5 with nucleotides and provide a framework for future investigations.
