F172-8, an H(+)-ATPase-defective mutant of the glutamic acid-producing bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 14067, exhibits enhanced rates of glucose consumption and respiration compared to the parental strain when cultured in a biotin-rich medium with glucose as the carbon source. We conducted a comparative proteomic analysis to clarify the mechanism by which the enhanced glucose metabolism in this mutant is established using a proteome reference map for strain ATCC 14067. A comparison of the proteomes of the two strains revealed the up-regulated expression of the several important enzymes such as pyruvate kinase (Pyk), malate:quinone oxidoreductase (Mqo), and malate dehydrogenase (Mdh) in the mutant. Because Pyk activates glycolysis in response to cellular energy shortages in this bacterium, its increased expression may contribute to the enhanced glucose metabolism of the mutant. A unique reoxidation system has been suggested for NADH in C. glutamicum consisting of coupled reactions between Mqo and Mdh, together with the respiratory chain; therefore, the enhanced expression of both enzymes might contribute to the reoxidation of NADH during increased respiration. The proteomic analysis allowed the identification of unique physiological changes associated with the H(+)-ATPase defect in F172-8 and contributed to the understanding of the adaptations of C. glutamicum to energy deficiencies.

DnaK is a molecular chaperone that promotes cell survival during stress by preventing protein misfolding. The chaperone activity is regulated by nucleotide binding and hydrolysis events in the N-terminal ATPase domain, which in turn mediate substrate binding and release in the C-terminal substrate binding domain. In this study we determined that ATP hydrolysis was the rate limiting step in the ATPase cycle of Agrobacterium tumefaciens DnaK (Agt DnaK); however the data suggested that Agt DnaK had a significantly lower affinity for ATP than Escherichia coli DnaK. We show for the first time that Agt DnaK was very effective at preventing thermal aggregation of malate dehydrogenase (MDH) in a concentration dependent manner. This is in contrast to E. coli DnaK which was ineffective at preventing thermal aggregation of MDH. A mutant Agt DnaK-V431F, with a blocked hydrophobic pocket in the substrate binding domain, was unable to suppress the thermosensitivty of an E. coli dnaK103 deletion strain. However the mutation did not inhibit Agt DnaK-V431F from preventing the thermal aggregation of MDH. The oligomeric state of Agt DnaK was studied using size exclusion chromatography. We demonstrated that dilution of the Agt DnaK protein, the addition of ATP and the removal of the 10kDa C-terminal alpha-helical subdomain reduced higher order associations but did not abrogate dimerisation. Our research implies that the C-terminal alpha-helical subdomain is involved in higher order associations, while the substrate binding domain is possibly involved in dimerisation.

We have previously reported the association of a mutation (c.292G > A/p.V98I) in the human HSPD1 gene that encodes the mitochondrial Hsp60 chaperonin with a dominantly inherited form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. Here, we show that the purified Hsp60-(p.V98I) chaperonin displays decreased ATPase activity and exhibits a strongly reduced capacity to promote folding of denatured malate dehydrogenase in vitro. To test its in vivo functions, we engineered a bacterial model system that lacks the endogenous chaperonin genes and harbors two plasmids carrying differentially inducible operons with human Hsp10 and wild-type Hsp60 or Hsp10 and Hsp60-(p.V98I), respectively. Ten hours after shutdown of the wild-type chaperonin operon and induction of the Hsp60-(p.V98I)/Hsp10 mutant operon, bacterial cell growth was strongly inhibited. No globally increased protein aggregation was observed, and microarray analyses showed that a number of genes involved in metabolic pathways, some of which are essential for robust aerobic growth, were strongly up-regulated in Hsp60-(p.V98I)-expressing bacteria, suggesting that the growth arrest was caused by defective folding of some essential proteins. Co-expression of Hsp60-(p.V98I) and wild-type Hsp60 exerted a dominant negative effect only when the chaperonin genes were expressed at relatively low levels. Based on our in vivo and in vitro data, we propose that the major effect of heterozygosity for the Hsp60-(p.V98I) mutation is a moderately decreased activity of chaperonin complexes composed of mixed wild-type and Hsp60-(p.V98I) mutant subunits.

The mitochondrial damage in the lung was assessed by examining the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxides, reduced glutathione, and the activities of isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, complexes I to IV, and cytochrome c. The oxidative phosphorylation (levels of adenosine triphosphatase) was evaluated for the assessment of mitochondrial functional capacity. We found significantly elevated levels of ROS, lipid peroxides, and decreased levels of mitochondrial enzymes in the mice administered with benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]p). Measurement of oxidative phosphorylation revealed a marked depletion in all the variables studied. Administration of crocetin prevented the structural and functional impairment of mitochondria upon administration to B[a]p. From the results, we suggest that administration of B[a]p induces damage to the lung mitochondria and crocetin protects the lung from damage by maintaining the structural and functional integrity of the mitochondrial membrane.

The amelioration effect of dietary high protein and vitamin C against stress was evaluated in spotted murrel, Channa punctatus, exposed to endosulfan. Two hundred and forty fish (average weight: 27.01 g/fish), distributed equally into 4 different groups (control, T(1), T(2), and T(3)), each with 6 replicates were fed with control (40% crude protein, CP and 0.1% vitamin C), T(1) (40% CP and 0.1% vitamin C), T(2) (50% CP and 0.1% vitamin C), and T(3) (50% CP and 0.2% vitamin C) diets for 90 days. Groups fed T(1), T(2), and T(3) diets were exposed to sublethal endosulfan concentration, whereas the control was maintained without endosulfan exposure. Results indicated significant reduction in the growth performance, survival, and activities of lactate dehydrogenase (liver and muscle), malate dehydrogenase (liver and muscle), enzymes of protein metabolism (aspartate amino transferase in liver and alanine amino transferase in liver and muscle), acetyl choline esterase (brain), alkaline phosphatase activity (liver), and ATPase (gill) enzymes of group fed control diet and exposed to endosulfan. However, endosulfan exposed fish fed high CP and vitamin C diet exhibited significant (P<0.05) improvement in their growth performance and metabolic enzyme activities. Further, high CP and vitamin C diet reduced endosulfan accumulation in the muscle. Overall results indicate that vitamin C (0.2%) supplementation in high CP (50%) diet improves growth, metabolism, and reduce endosulfan bioaccumulation in C. punctatus.

Growth inhibition in acid soils due to Al stress affects crop production worldwide. To understand mechanisms in sensitive crops that are affected by Al stress, a proteomic analysis of primary tomato root tissue, grown in Al-amended and non-amended liquid cultures, was performed. DIGE-SDS-MALDI-TOF-TOF analysis of these tissues resulted in the identification of 49 proteins that were differentially accumulated. Dehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione reductase, and catalase enzymes associated with antioxidant activities were induced in Al-treated roots. Induced enzyme proteins associated with detoxification were mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase, catechol oxidase, quinone reductase, and lactoylglutathione lyase. The germin-like (oxalate oxidase) proteins, the malate dehydrogenase, wali7 and heavy-metal associated domain-containing proteins were suppressed. VHA-ATP that encodes for the catalytic subunit A of the vacuolar ATP synthase was induced and two ATPase subunit 1 isoforms were suppressed. Several proteins in the active methyl cycle, including SAMS, quercetin 3-O-methyltransferase and AdoHcyase, were induced by Al stress. Other induced proteins were isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase and the GDSL-motif lipase hydrolase family protein. NADPH-dependent flavin reductase and beta-hydroxyacyl-ACP dehydratase were suppressed.

Early Alzheimer's disease (EAD) is the intermediary stage between mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and late-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD). The symptoms of EAD mirror the disease advancement between the two phases. Dementia, memory deficits, and cognitive decline are more pronounced as the disease progresses. Oxidative stress in brain is reported in MCI and AD, including lipid peroxidation indexed by protein-bound 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE). There are limited data regarding the proteomics analysis of brain from subjects with EAD and even less concerning the possible relationship of EAD HNE-modified brain proteins with HNE-modified proteins in MCI and AD. Proteomics was utilized to investigate excessively HNE-bound brain proteins in EAD compared to those in control. These new results provide potentially valuable insight into connecting HNE-bound brain proteins in EAD to those previously identified in MCI and AD, since EAD is a transitional stage between MCI and late-stage AD. In total, six proteins were found to be excessively covalently bound by HNE in EAD inferior parietal lobule (IPL) compared to age-related control brain. These proteins play roles in antioxidant defense (manganese superoxide dismutase), neuronal communication and neurite outgrowth (dihydropyriminidase-related protein 2), and energy metabolism (alpha-enolase, malate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase, and F1 ATPase, alpha subunit). This study shows that there is an overlap of brain proteins in EAD with previously identified oxidatively modified proteins in MCI and late-stage AD. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that oxidative stress, in particular lipid peroxidation, is an early event in the progression of AD, and is the first to identify in EAD identical brain proteins previously identified as HNE-modified in MCI and late-state AD.

Hsp90 proteins are essential molecular chaperones regulating multiple cellular processes in distinct subcellular organelles. In this study, we report the functional characterization of a cDNA encoding endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident Hsp90 from orchardgrass (DgHsp90). DgHsp90 is a 2742bp cDNA with an open reading frame predicted to encode an 808 amino acid protein. DgHsp90 has a well conserved N-terminal ATPase domain and a C-terminal Hsp90 domain and ER-retention motif. Expression of DgHsp90 increased during heat stress at 35 degrees C or H(2)O(2) treatment. DgHsp90 also functions as a chaperone protein by preventing thermal aggregation of malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) and citrate synthase (EC 2.3.3.1). The intrinsic ATPase activity of DgHsp90 was inhibited by geldanamycin, an Hsp90 inhibitor, and the inhibition reduced the chaperone activity of DgHsp90. Yeast cells overexpressing DgHsp90 exhibited enhanced thermotolerance.

The present work investigated the in vitro effects of D-serine (D-Ser) on important parameters of energy metabolism in cerebral cortex of young rats. The parameters analyzed were CO(2) generation from glucose and acetate, glucose uptake and the activities of the respiratory chain complexes I-IV, of the citric acid cycle enzymes citrate synthase, aconitase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, fumarase and malate dehydrogenase and of creatine kinase and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. Our results show that D-Ser significantly reduced CO(2) production from acetate, but not from glucose, reflecting an impairment of the citric acid cycle function. Furthermore, D-Ser did not affect glucose uptake. We also observed that the activity of the mitochondrial enzyme citrate synthase from mitochondrial preparations and purified citrate synthase was significantly inhibited by D-Ser, whereas the other activities of the citric acid cycle as well as the activities of complexes I-III, II-III, II and IV of the respiratory chain, creatine kinase and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase were not affected by this D-amino acid. We also found that L-serine did not affect citrate synthase activity from mitochondrial preparations and purified enzyme. The data indicate that D-Ser impairs the citric acid cycle activity via citrate synthase inhibition, therefore compromising energy metabolism production in cerebral cortex of young rats. Therefore, it is presumed that this mechanism may be involved at least in part in the neurological damage found in patients affected by disorders in which D-Ser metabolism is impaired, with altered cerebral concentrations of this D-amino acid.

Rat liver mitochondria isolated in 0.25 M sucrose were osmotically lysed with distilled water. The effect of osmotic lysis on mitochondrial compartmentation was monitored by following the changes in the specific Mg(++)-ATPase and the stimulation of this activity by DNP. Each resuspension in distilled water caused a progressive increase in the specific Mg(++)-ATPase and a decrease in DNP-stimulation. Lysed mitochondria yielded P:O ratios of slightly less than 1.0 when each of the "site-specific" substrates, NADH, D-beta-hydroxybutyrate, succinate, and ascorbate, were oxidized. These data indicate that only site 3 phosphorylation remained undiminished. The crude, lysed mitochondria were subfractionated by centrifugation on linear sucrose density gradients. Assays for protein, malate dehydrogenase, D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, and succinate dehydrogenase indicated that the inner compartment could be clearly separated from the outer membrane vesicles. The results also suggested that the small vesicle fraction contained a small proportion of vesiculated inner membranes. Inner mitochondrial compartments, "contracted" by preincubation in the presence of ATP, sedimented to a markedly lower density on the gradients than did the unincubated preparations and about 50% of the ghosts showed a highly condensed morphology. In the contracted preparations, relatively low malate dehydrogenase and D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase activities were found in the fractions comprised of the inner compartments. The specific activity and distribution of succinate dehydrogenase were about the same as were found with the unincubated, lysed mitochondria.
