Ly-6C is a differentiation antigen that distinguishes T-lymphocyte subsets. In concordance with previous results, splenocytes from NOD mice do not express the epitope recognized by anti-Ly-6C monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs), including MoAb HK1.4 in this study, and cannot be stimulated to proliferate in response to HK1.4. However, when splenocytes from NOD mice were stimulated in vitro with the anti-CD3 MoAb 145-2C11, T lymphocytes expressing Ly-6C were detected after 48 h of stimulation, with as many as 25% of lymphocytes expressing this antigen with prolonged passage in culture. Most of the cells expressing Ly-6C were Thy-1.2+, CD4+, and CD8- and proliferated after stimulation with HK1.4. To further understand the failure of NOD splenocytes to express Ly-6C, freshly isolated cells were stimulated with alpha/beta-interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) and IFN-gamma. Although these lymphokines induced expression of Ly-6A and Ly-6C in splenocytes from C57BL/6J mice and Ly-6A in NOD cells, Ly-6C was not induced on NOD cells. Because Ly-6C expression on splenocytes was a marker of activation via the CD3 T-lymphocyte receptor complex, we also examined expression of Ly-6C on T lymphocytes within islets showing insulitis in vivo. Lymphocytes that were Ly-6C+ were identified within islets on histological sections of pancreas, whereas Ly-6C+ cells in the spleen from the same mouse could not be detected. Our findings imply functional abnormality in expression of Ly-6C in NOD mice.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1) catalyzes the first step in glucose metabolism, using ATP for the phosphorylation of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate. A portion of the HK1 gene was cloned by mixed oligonucleotide primer amplification of cDNA using primers of high complexity. The amino acid sequence for a partial fragment of bovine cardiac muscle HK was determined and used to create primer mixtures of 256- and 1024-fold complexity. Two products were generated from bovine cardiac muscle cDNA which show 82% nucleotide and 93% amino acid identity with a region of rat brain HK1 and cDNA. This work demonstrates that extension and amplification of cDNA probes may be successful even when amino acid sequence data indicate substantial codon degeneracy.

Ca2+-ATPase molecules present in the microsomal fraction from non-muscle cells were examined immunologically. Rabbit whole brain, cerebellum, liver, kidney, and COS-1 cell microsomes all displayed a polypeptide of about 110 kDa which was immunoreactive with a polyclonal antiserum against the cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase molecule, but was not immunoreactive with a monoclonal antibody specific for the fast-twitch muscle Ca2+-ATPase. cDNAs encoding the full length of two Ca2+-ATPase molecules were isolated from a human kidney library using a mixture of nucleotide probes derived from both rabbit fast-twitch and cardiac muscle Ca2+-ATPase cDNAs. The human kidney cDNAs, HK1 and HK2, are the products of alternative splicing. HK2 codes for a protein identical to rabbit cardiac muscle Ca2+-ATPase, with the exception of 6 scattered amino acid replacements, whereas HK1 codes for a protein identical to that encoded by HK2, but with the carboxyl-terminal 4 amino acids replaced by an extended sequence of 49 amino acids. cDNAs of the HK1 type are by far the most abundant in the library. The partial structure of a 40-kilobase genomic DNA encoding all but the 5' end of the human cardiac Ca2+-ATPase is described. The exons which give rise to the alternatively spliced products were located by Southern blotting and sequencing, and the alternative splicing patterns were determined.

T-2 toxin, a trichothecene mycotoxin, inhibits the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have isolated nine spontaneous S. cerevisiae mutants resistant to this toxin. The mutants were distinguished from the wild type according to their degree of resistance to T-2 toxin on media with dextrose or glycerol as the carbon source. Generation time, mutation stability and level of cross-resistance to roridin A, another trichothecene, were determined for each mutant. The T-2 toxin resistant mutants were further characterized by subsequent tests involving cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity to chlorampenicol, neomycin, paromomycin, ethidium bromide and thiolutin. Mutants have been placed into three subgroups and the mechanism of T-2 toxin resistance in each group has been postulated. Mutant HK1 is the first S. cerevisiae isolate resistant to roridin A. One particular isolate, mutant HK11, carries a single recessive nuclear mutation. This mutation was termed ttt (for T-2 toxin resistant).

HK1.4 mAb was identified based on its ability to stimulate proliferation of cloned murine CTL. Within the lymphoid lineage, mAb HK1.4 bound exclusively to CTL, regardless of the expression of Lyt-2 or MHC restriction. HK1.4 mAb also bound to 40% of bone marrow cells and less than 5% of thymocytes from all mouse strains tested. Based on the tissue distribution of the determinant with which it reacted and the ability to cross-block binding of the anti-Ly-6 mAb H9/25, mAb HK1.4 appeared to react with a product of the Ly-6 locus. However, significant differences were observed between the properties of mAb HK1.4 and other, previously described anti-Ly-6 mAb. Cell proliferation and lymphokine release by cloned CTL were stimulated by culture with mAb HK1.4 alone or in the presence of non-stimulatory levels of IL-2. This proliferation and lymphokine release were not blocked by the addition of soluble anti-Lyt-2 or anti-IL-2R mAb. Activation induced by HK1.4 mAb proceeds in the absence of accessory cells, of cross-linking of the TCR, or the addition of mitogens or PMA. Stimulation of cells by anti-TCR mAb was not blocked by the addition of soluble HK1.4 mAb, and the stimulatory effects of HK1.4 and anti-TCR mAb were not additive. However, IL-2-driven proliferation of CTL clones was dramatically inhibited by the addition of HK1.4 mAb.HK1.4 mAb had no effect on Ag-specific or lectin-facilitated cytolysis. Taken together, these data indicate that mAb HK1.4 operates via an IL-2-independent pathway of activation that is also independent of the TCR.

Chromosomal rearrangements involving mink chromosome 2 in mink-Chinese hamster and mink-mouse hepatoma somatic hybrids were identified. By means of these rearrangements, we assigned the genes for HK1, GOT1, and PP to 2pter----p22, those for PGD, PGM1 and ENO1 to 2q24.4----qter, and that for NP and ADK to 2pter----p11.1.

Using Chinese hamster/mouse somatic cell hybrids segregating hamster chromosomes, we assigned 15 enzyme genes to six different Chinese hamster autosomes. Of the 15 loci, three genes, HK1, PEPC, and SORD, were newly assigned to chromosomes 1, 5, and 6, respectively, while ENO1, PGD, and PGM1 were assigned to the long arm of chromosome 2, in the segment 2q113----qter. The locations of the following loci were confirmed: ESD, NP, and PEPB on chromosome 1, ME1 and MPI on chromosome 4, AK1 on chromosome 6, and GPI and PEPD on chromosome 9. Comparative mapping of Chinese hamster and laboratory mouse chromosomes revealed conservation of syntenic groups and extensive banding homology between the Chinese hamster and mouse chromosomes on which homologous enzyme markers have been mapped.

A long-term cell culture epithelioid cell line was established from a recurrent squamous carcinoma of the nasopharynx of a Chinese male 17 1/2 years after radiation therapy. The cell line, designated NPC/HK1, has been passed 72 times over a period 1 year. The cells have been shown by light and electron microscopies to be of the squamous epithelial type. When they were transplanted subcutaneously into the back of athymic nude BALB/c (nu/nu) mice, tumors developed at the sites of inoculation, which on histological examination were shown to be well-differentiated squamous carcinomas, similar in morphology to the recurrent human tumor from which they were derived. Karyotypic analysis of cells from the cell line demonstrates an aneuploid human type with a modal chromosome number of 74 with both numerical and structural aberrations. Viral particles or Epstein-Barr viral nuclear antigen (EBNA) has not been demonstrated in the cells from the primary culture or several of the subcultures tested. The presence of EBNA in touch smears prepared from the biopsy tissue was inconclusive. Infection of the subcultured cells with EBV from P3HR1 and B95-8 cells was unsuccessful.

The subunit dissociation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (L-glutamate: NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.1.3) induced by guanidine hydrochloride ( GdnHCl ) in 0.2 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.3) was investigated by light-scattering molecular-weight measurements. With increasing GdnHCl concentration, two-step transition was observed in the molecular weight change. The dissociation behavior was well described by assuming the dissociation-association equilibria expressed as HK1 in equilibrium 2T K2 in equilibrium 6M where H, T, and M represent the hexameric, trimeric and monomeric forms of the enzyme, respectively. GdnHCl concentration dependence of the two equilibrium constants was interpreted in terms of the binding of GdnHCl on the protein. According to this treatment, the numbers of amino acid residues present at the trimer-trimer contact area within hexamer, N3, and at the monomer-monomer contact area within trimer, N1, were estimated to be as follows; N3 = 21 +/- 2 and N1 = 27 +/- 5. These values seem to be reasonable considering the physical model proposed for this enzyme.

Quantitative evaluation of six red cell enzymes in a patient with trisomy 10p syndrome showed significantly increased activity levels of HK 1. These results are in agreement with the evidence derived from another similar patient and strongly support the idea of gene dosage effect of HK1 in the erythrocytes of 10p trisomics. It is suggested that the HK 1 structural locus may be in the 10 pter leads to p13 region.
