A substrate protein for botulinum C3 ADP-ribosyltransferase (C3 exoenzyme) in human platelets was purified to apparent homogeneity from the cytosol by ammonium sulfate fractionation and successive chromatography on columns of DEAE-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite, phenyl-Sepharose, and TSK phenyl-5PW. The purified protein yielded an amino acid sequence identical to that of rhoA protein. When platelet cytosol and membranes were incubated with C3 exoenzyme and [32P]NAD and subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing, they gave only one [32P]ADP-ribosylated band on each electrophoresis that showed an M(r) of 22,000 and a pI of 6.0. The radioactive bands from the two fractions co-migrated with each other and with the [32P]ADP-ribosylated purified protein. When these radioactive products were partially digested with either alpha-chymotrypsin or trypsin and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the same digestion pattern was found in the three samples. These results suggest that the ADP-ribosylation substrate for C3 exoenzyme in the platelet cytosol and membrane is rhoA protein and that it is the sole substrate detectable in human platelets.

A novel enzymatic activity, the hydrolysis of linkages between mono(ADP-ribose) and cysteine residues in Gi prepared by eukaryotic ADP-ribosyltransferase C [(1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 5485-5489] was found in the cytosol of human erythrocytes. The mono(ADP-ribosyl) Gi hydrolase, tentatively named ADP-ribosyl protein hydrolase C was partially purified by sequential chromatographies on DEAE-cellulose and Blue Sepharose. This enzyme catalyzes the release of ADP-ribose from mono(ADP-ribosyl) Gi. Its activity was enhanced by Ca2+ and inhibited by ADP-ribose. The presence of this enzyme in eukaryotic cells suggests that endogenous mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of Gi is a reversible post-translational modification.

The culture medium of certain strains of Clostridium botulinum type C contains two separable ADP-ribosyltransferases. Besides the ADP-ribosylation of actin due to botulinum C2 I toxin, a second microbial enzyme causes the mono-ADP-ribosylation of a eukaryotic protein with a molecular mass of about 20 kDa found in platelets, neuroblastoma X glioma hybrid cells, S49 lymphoma cells, chick embryo fibroblasts and sperm. The eukaryotic substrate is inactivated by heating and trypsin treatment. In contrast, the novel ADP-ribosyltransferase, which can be separated by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography, is largely resistant in the short term to trypsin digestion.

The substrate for ADP-ribosyltransferase from Clostridium botulinum was purified from the cytosol of bovine adrenal gland. Purification procedures consisted of ammonium sulfate fractionation, chromatographies on columns of DEAE-Sepharose and phenyl-Sepharose, gel filtration on a TSK-gel G3000SW column, and Mono Q fast protein liquid chromatography. On DEAE-Sepharose chromatography, the substrate activity was eluted in two separate peaks, and electrophoretic analyses revealed that the substrates in the two peaks are of similar molecular weight but different isoelectric points. The major peak of the substrate was further purified. It was purified about 1,800-fold with a recovery of 2.2% by the above procedures. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the final preparation showed a single protein band at Mr 22,000. The purified protein served as a substrate for botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase and was maximally ADP-ribosylated to the extent of about 0.7 mol of ADP-ribose/mol of protein. A guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) binding activity was co-purified with the ADP-ribosylation substrate, and the purified protein maximally bound about 0.5 mol of GTP gamma S/mol. GTP gamma S binding was effectively competed by GTP and GDP but not by GMP, ATP, and ADP. Thus, the ADP-ribosylation substrate is a GTP-binding protein. This protein, designated Gb (b for botulinum), is widely distributed in various tissues. It was rich in brain, pituitary, and adrenal glands, and poor in heart, smooth, and skeletal muscles.

ADP-ribosylation reactions in nucleoli of exponentially growing HeLa cells were studied. Isolated nuclei or nucleoli were labeled with 32P-NAD; then the nucleolar proteins were analyzed by 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and modified proteins were detected by autoradiography. The labeled nucleolar proteins were also chromatographically fractionated on DEAE-cellulose. Electrophoretic analysis of total nucleolar and chromatographically purified proteins revealed that besides nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferase and histones two characteristic nucleolar phosphoproteins numatrin/B23 and nucleolin/C23 were modified by ADP-ribosylation.

ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) are approximately20-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding proteins that participate in vesicular transport in the Golgi and other intracellular compartments and stimulate cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Both GTP binding and hydrolysis are necessary for its physiological functions, although purified mammalian ARF lacks detectable GTPase activity. An ARF GTPase-activating protein (GAP) was purified >15,000-fold from rat spleen cytosol using (NH4)2SO4 precipitation and chromatography on Ultrogel AcA 34, DEAE-Sephacel, heparin-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite, and Ultrogel AcA 44. In fractions ( approximately100-kDa proteins) from Ultrogel AcA 44, a major protein band of approximately50 kDa on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis correlated with GAP activity, consistent with it being a homodimer, thus differing from an ARF GAP purified from rat liver (Makler, V., Cukierman, E., Rotman, M., Admon, A., and Cassel, D. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 5232-5237). Purified spleen GAP accelerated hydrolysis of GTP bound to recombinant ARF1, ARF3, ARF5, and ARF6; no effect of NH2-terminal myristoylation was observed. ARF GAP also activated GTP hydrolysis by ARL1, which is 56% identical in amino acid sequence to ARF1, but lacks ARF activity. ARD1 is a 64-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding protein that contains an 18-kDa ARF domain at its carboxyl terminus; the ARF domain lacks the amino-terminal alpha-helix found in native ARF and hence is similar to the amino-terminal truncated mutant Delta13ARF1. Both the ARF domain of ARD1 and Delta13ARF1 were poor substrates for ARF GAP. The non-ARF1 domain of ARD1 enhanced the GTPase activity of the ARF domain, but not that of the ARF proteins and Delta13ARF1, i.e. it lacks the relatively broad substrate specificity exhibited by ARF GAP.

The anti-tumor activity of a novel polysaccharide, PRG1-1, obtained from Russula griseocarnosa sporocarp was investigated in this paper. PRG1-1 has a molecular weight of 630kDa and was extracted and purified using DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration chromatography from crude polysaccharide extract of R. griseocarnosa sporocarp. PRG1-1 was composed of glucose, galactose, mannose, xylose and fructose, in a molar ratio of 66.5:29.2:3.17: 0.663:0.447, respectively. Purified PRG1-1 significantly reduced cell viability, increased the production of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and enhanced the apoptotic rate in HeLa and SiHa cells. Furthermore, after 24h of PRG1-1 exposure the expression levels of cleaved PARP and caspase-3 were increased and mitochondrial cytochrome c was induced to release to the cytosol. Collectively, our results suggested that the cytotoxicity effects of PRG1-1 on human cervical carcinoma are associated with the apoptotic pathway. These data indicate the promising potential of bioactive PRG1-1 as natural agent to inhibit tumor cell proliferation in the treatment of cervical carcinoma.
