The mechanism of thiol modulation of the chloroplast ATP synthase by Escherichia coli thioredoxin was investigated in the isolated ATPase subcomplex and in the ATP synthase complex reconstituted in bacteriorhodopsin proteoliposomes. Thiol modulation was resolved kinetically by continuously monitoring ATP hydrolysis by the isolated subcomplex and ATP synthesis by proteoliposomes. The binding rate constant of reduced thioredoxin to the oxidized ATPase subcomplex devoid of its epsilon subunit could be determined. It did not depend on the catalytic turnover. Reciprocically, the catalytic turnover did not seem to depend on thioredoxin binding. Thiol modulation by Trx of the epsilon-bearing ATPase subcomplex was slow and favored the release of epsilon. The rate constant of thioredoxin binding to the membrane-bound ATP synthase increased with the protonmotive force. It was lower in the presence of ADP than in its absence, revealing a specific effect of the ATP synthase turnover on thioredoxin-gamma subunit interaction. These findings, and more especially the comparisons between the isolated ATPase subcomplex and the ATP synthase complex, can be interpreted in the frame of the rotational catalysis hypothesis. Finally, thiol modulation changed the catalytic properties of the ATP synthase, the kinetics of which became non-Michaelian. This questions the common view about the nature of changes induced by ATP synthase thiol modulation.

Oenococcus oeni is a lactic acid bacterium which is able to grow in wine and perform malolactic fermentation. To survive and grow in such a harsh environment as wine, O. oeni uses several mechanisms of resistance including stress protein synthesis. The molecular characterisation of three stress genes hsp18, clpX, trxA encoding for a small heat shock protein, an ATPase regulation component of ClpP protease and a thioredoxin, respectively, allow us to suggest the existence in O. oeni of multiple regulation mechanisms as is the case in Bacillus subtilis. One common feature of these genes is that they are expressed under the control of housekeeping promoters. The expression of these genes as a function of growth is significantly different. Surprisingly, the clpX gene, which is induced by heat shock, was highly expressed in the early phase of growth. In addition to stress protein synthesis, adaptation to the acid pH of wine requires efficient cellular systems to extrude protons. Using inhibitors specific for different types of ATPases, we demonstrated the existence of H+-ATPase and P-type ATPase.

Chloroplast ATP synthase is a thiol-modulated enzyme whose DeltamuH(+)-linked activation is strongly influenced by reduction and the formation of a disulphide bridge between Cys(199) and Cys(205) on the gamma subunit. In solubilized chloroplast coupling factor 1 (CF(1)), reduction of the disulphide bond elicits the latent ATP-hydrolysing activity. To assess the regulatory importance of the amino acid residues around these cysteine residues, we focused on the three negatively charged residues Glu(210)-Asp-Glu(212) close to the two cysteine residues and also on the following region from Leu(213) to Ile(230), and investigated the modulation of ATPase activity by chloroplast thioredoxins. The mutant gamma subunits were reconstituted with the alpha and beta subunits from F(1) of the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus PS3; the active ATPase complexes obtained were purified by gel-filtration chromatography. The complex formed with a mutant gamma subunit in which Glu(210) to Glu(212) had been deleted was inactivated rather than activated by reduction of the disulphide bridge by reduced thioredoxin, indicating inverse regulation. This complex was insensitive to the inhibitory CF(1)-epsilon subunit when the mutant gamma subunit was oxidized. In contrast, the deletion of Glu(212) to Ile(230) converted the complex from a modulated state into a highly active state.

The Hsp70-interacting protein Hip binds to the adenosine triphosphatase domain of Hsp70, stabilizing it in the adenosine 5'-diphosphate-ligated conformation and promoting binding of target polypeptides. In mammalian cells, Hip is a component of the cytoplasmic chaperone heterocomplex that regulates signal transduction via interaction with hormone receptors and protein kinases. Analysis of the complete genome sequence of the model flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana revealed 2 genes encoding Hip orthologs. The deduced sequence of AtHip-1 consists of 441 amino acid residues and is 42% identical to human Hip. AtHip-1 contains the same functional domains characterized in mammalian Hip, including an N-terminal dimerization domain, an acidic domain, 3 tetratricopeptide repeats flanked by a highly charged region, a series of degenerate GGMP repeats, and a C-terminal region similar to the Sti1/Hop/p60 protein. The deduced amino acid sequence of AtHip-2 consists of 380 amino acid residues. AtHip-2 consists of a truncated Hip-like domain that is 46% identical to human Hip, followed by a C-terminal domain related to thioredoxin. AtHip-2 is 63% identical to another Hip-thioredoxin protein recently identified in Vitis labrusca (grape). The truncated Hip domain in AtHip-2 includes the amino terminus, the acidic domain, and tetratricopeptide repeats with flanking charged region. Analyses of expressed sequence tag databases indicate that both AtHip-1 and AtHip-2 are expressed in A thaliana and that orthologs of Hip are also expressed widely in other plants. The similarity between AtHip-1 and its mammalian orthologs is consistent with a similar role in plant cells. The sequence of AtHip-2 suggests the possibility of additional unique chaperone functions.

The plant vacuolar proton pump can be subjected to reversible redox regulation in vitro. The redox-dependent activity change involves disulfide bridge formation not only in Vatp A, as reported for bovine V-ATPase, but also in the stalk subunit Vatp E. Microsomal membranes isolated from barley leaves were analysed for their activity of bafilomycin-sensitive ATP hydrolysis and proton pumping using quinacrine fluorescence quenching in vesicle preparations. ATP hydrolysis and proton pumping activity were inhibited by H2O2. H2O2-deactivated ATPase was reactivated by cysteine and glutathione. The glutathione concentration needed for half maximal reactivation was 1 mmol l-1. The activity loss was accompanied by shifts in electrophoretic mobility of Vatp A and E which were reversed upon reductive reactivation. The redox-dependent shift was also seen with recombinant Vatp E, and was absent following site-directed mutagenesis of either of the two cys residues conserved throughout all plant Vatp E sequences. V-ATPase was also inhibited by oxidized thioredoxin. These results support the hypothesis that tuning of vacuolar ATPase activity can be mediated by redox control depending on the metabolic requirements.

The outer dynein arm from Chlamydomonas flagella contains two redox-active thioredoxin-related light chains associated with the alpha and beta heavy chains; these proteins belong to a distinct subgroup within the thioredoxin family. This observation suggested that some aspect of dynein activity might be modulated through redox poise. To test this, we have examined the effect of sulfhydryl oxidation on the ATPase activity of isolated dynein and axonemes from wildtype and mutant strains lacking various heavy chain combinations. The outer, but not inner, dynein arm ATPase was stimulated significantly following treatment with low concentrations of dithionitrobenzoic acid; this effect was readily reversible by dithiol, and to a lesser extent, monothiol reductants. Mutational and biochemical dissection of the outer arm revealed that ATPase activation in response to DTNB was an exclusive property of the gamma heavy chain, and that enzymatic enhancement was modulated by the presence of other dynein components. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the LC5 thioredoxin-like light chain binds to the N-terminal stem domain of the alpha heavy chain and that the beta heavy chain-associated LC3 protein also interacts with the gamma heavy chain. These data suggest the possibility of a dynein-associated redox cascade and further support the idea that the gamma heavy chain plays a key regulatory role within the outer arm.

By using a yeast functional complementation assay, we have identified AtTDX, a new Arabidopsis thaliana gene, encoding a two-domain 42-kDa protein. The amino-terminal domain of AtTDX is closely related to the co-chaperone Hsp70-interacting protein HIP, whereas its carboxyl-terminal part contains a thioredoxin domain. Both in vivo and in vitro assays showed that AtTDX is a protein-disulfide reductase. We next found that the HIP domain of AtTDX is capable of interacting with the ATPase domain of Ssb2, a yeast heat-shock protein 70 chaperone. Strikingly, the AtTDX-Ssb2 interaction can be released under oxidative stress, a redox-dependent regulation involving the thioredoxin activity of AtTDX. A mutation inactivating the cysteine 20 of the ATPase domain of Ssb2 was found to stabilize the AtTDX-Ssb2 interaction that becomes redox-insensitive. As cysteine 20 is conserved in virtually all the Hsp70 chaperones, our results suggest that this residue might be more generally the target of redox regulations of chaperone binding activity.

Several endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident luminal proteins have a characteristic ER retrieval signal, KDEL, or its variants at their C terminus. Our previous work searching EST databases for proteins containing the C-terminal KDEL motif predicted some novel murine proteins, one of which designated JPDI (J-domain-containing protein disulfide isomerase-like protein) is characterized in this study. The primary structure of JPDI is unique, because in addition to a J-domain motif adjacent to the N-terminal translocation signal sequence, four thioredoxin-like motifs were found in a single polypeptide. As examined by Northern blotting, the expression of JPDI was essentially ubiquitous in tissues and almost independent of ER stress. A computational prediction that JPDI is an ER-resident luminal protein was experimentally supported by immunofluorescent staining of epitope-tagged JPDI-expressing cells together with glycosylation and protease protection studies of this protein. JPDI probably acts as a DnaJ-like partner of BiP, because a recombinant protein carrying the J-domain of JPDI associated with BiP in an ATP-dependent manner and enhanced its ATPase activity. We speculate that for the folding of some proteins in the ER, chaperoning by BiP and formation of proper disulfide bonds may synchronously occur in a JPDI-dependent manner.

The kinesin family member BimC has a highly positively charged domain of approximately 70 amino acids at the N terminus of the motor domain. Motor domain constructs of BimC were prepared with and without this extra domain to determine its influence. The level of microtubules needed for half saturation of the ATPase of BimC motor domain constructs is reduced by approximately 7000-fold at low ionic strength upon addition of this extra N-terminal extension. Although the change in microtubule affinity is less at higher salt, addition of the N-terminal domain still produces a 20-fold increase in affinity for microtubules in 200 mm potassium acetate. A fusion protein of the N-terminal domain and thioredoxin binds tightly to MTs at low salt, consistent with the increased affinity of motor domain constructs (which contain the N-terminal domain) being due to the additional binding of the N-terminal domain to the microtubule. Hydrodynamic analysis indicates that the N-terminal extension is in a highly extended conformation, suggesting that it may be intrinsically disordered. Fusion of the N-terminal extension of BimC onto the motor domain of conventional kinesin produces a similar large increase in microtubule affinity without significant reduction in kcat or velocity in an in vitro motility assay, suggesting that the N-terminal extension can act in a modular manner to increase the microtubule affinity of kinesin motor domains without a decrease in velocity.

Among many proteins with cysteine sulfinic acid (Cys-SO2H) residues, the sulfinic forms of certain peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are selectively reduced by sulfiredoxin (Srx) in the presence of ATP. All Srx enzymes contain a conserved cysteine residue. To elucidate the mechanism of the Srx-catalyzed reaction, we generated various mutants of Srx and examined their interaction with PrxI, their ATPase activity, and their ability to reduce sulfinic PrxI. Our results suggest that three surface-exposed amino acid residues, corresponding to Arg50, Asp57, and Asp79 of rat Srx, are critical for substrate recognition. The presence of the sulfinic form (but not the reduced form) of PrxI induces the conserved cysteine of Srx to take the gamma-phosphate of ATP and then immediately transfers the phosphate to the sulfinic moiety of PrxI to generate a sulfinic acid phosphoryl ester (Prx-Cys-S(=O)OPO3(2-)). This ester is reductively cleaved by a thiol molecule (RSH) such as GSH, thioredoxin, and dithiothreitol to produce a disulfide-S-monoxide (Prx-Cys-S(=O)-S-R). The disulfide-S-monoxide is further reduced through the oxidation of three thiol equivalents to complete the catalytic cycle and regenerate Prx-Cys-SH.
