    Notizen: An electric birefringence study was carried out on aqueous suspensions of the purple membrane of Halobacterium halobium. In addition to the characterization of both native and modified membrane samples, the dependence of electric birefringence on pH and ionic strength was also investigated. The results indicate that purple membrane shows electric birefringence at a field strength as low as 200 V/cm. The permanent dipole moment and polarizability ranged from 20,500 debyes and 1.01 × 10-14 cm3 for a purple membrane concentration of 0.40 mg/mL to 41,000 debyes and 2.05 × 10-14 cm3 for a concentration of 0.80 mg/mL. It was also found that removal of the retinyl group of bacteriorhodopsin substantially decreases but does not eliminate the electric birefringence of the membrane. The solubilization of the membrane by Triton X-100, however, completely abolishes the electric birefringence. These experiments indicate that there is an interaction between adjacent bacteriorhodopsin molecules within the purple membrane via the retinyl chromophore moiety that builds up the permanent dipole moment. They also suggest that there are two types of response when purple membrane suspensions are placed in an electric field. One is an alignment of the disk-shaped particles with the field. The other is a stacking of the particles following their alignment by the electric field, which is promoted by the induced dipole moment.

    Notizen: Insulin inhibits the proliferation of wild-type Cloudman S91 mouse melanoma cells. The effects, which are mediated through specific, high-affinity receptors for insulin, appear to involve interactions with the cAMP system. Our evidence is as follows: (1) Cloudman cells have a cAMP requirement for proliferation and pigmentation. Exposure of cells to insulin results in a lowering of intracellular cAMP levels and inhibition of both cell division and pigment formation. (2) The effects of insulin are reversed by agents which raise cAMP levels, or by the cAMP analogue dibutyryl cAMP. (3) A mutant cell line with a temperature-dependent requirement for cAMP is most sensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of insulin when its requirements for cAMP are maximal. (4) Mutants selected only for alterations in their response to Insulin frequently have concomitant alterations in their cAMP systems. (5) The melanotropin-responsive adenylate cyclase system is stimulated following prolonged exposure of cells in culture to insulin. Although we do not know the mechanism(s) for the interactions between the insulin and the cAMP system, our initial findings suggest that protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation reactions are involved.

    Notizen: Insulin causes rapid phosphorylation of the β subunit (Mr = 95,000) of its receptor in broken cell preparations. This occurs on tyrosine residues and is due to activation of a protein kinase which is contained in the receptor itself. In the intact cell, insulin also stimulates the phosphorylation of the receptor and other cellular proteins on serine and threonine residues. In an attempt to find a protein that might link the receptor tyrosine kinase to these serine/threonine phosphorylation reactions, we have studied the interaction of a partially purified preparation of insulin receptor with purified preparations of serine/threoine kinases known to phosphorylate glycogen synthase. No insulin-dependent phosphorylation was ob served when casein kinases I and II, phosphorylase kinase, or glycogen synthase kinase 3 was incubated in vitro with the insulin receptor. These kinases also failed to phosphorylate the receptor. By contrast, the insulin receptor kinase catalyzed the phosphorylation of the calmodulin-dependent kinase and addition of insulin in vitro resulted in a 40% increase in this phosphorylation. In the presence of calmodulin-dependent kinase and the insulin receptor kinase, insulin also stimulated the phosphorylation of calmodulin. Phosphoamino acid analysis showed an increase of phosphotyrosine content in both calmodulin and calmodulindependent protein kinase. These data suggest that the insulin receptor kinase may interact directly and specifically with the calmodulin-dependent kinase and calmodulin. Further studies will be required to determine if these phosphorylations modify the action of these regulatory proteins.

    Notizen: Insulin stimulated autophosphorylation of the β-subunit of the insulin receptor purified from Fao hepatoma cells or purified from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO/HIRC) or Swiss 3T3 (3T3/HIRC) cells transfected with the wild-type human insulin receptor cDNA. Autophosphorylation of the purified receptor occurred in at least two regions of the β-subunit: the regulatory region containing Tyr-1146, Tyr-1150, and Tyr-1151, and the C-terminus containing Tyr-1316 and Tyr-1322. In the presence of antiphosphotyrosine antibody (α-PY), autophosphorylation of the purified receptor was inhibited nearly 80% during insulin stimulation. Tryptic peptide mapping showed that α-PY inhibited autophosphorylation of both tyrosyl residues in the C-terminus and one tyrosyl residue in the regulatory region, either Tyr-1150 or Tyr-1151. Thus, a bis-phosphorylated form of the regulatory region accumulated in the presence of α-PY, which contained Tyr(P)-1146 and either Tyr(P)-1150 or 1151. In intact Fao, CHO/HIRC, and 3T3/HIRC cells, insulin stimulated tyrosyl phosphorylation of the β-subunit of the insulin receptor. Tryptic peptide mapping indicated that the regulatory region of the β-subunit was mainly (〉80%) bis-phosphorylated; however, all three tyrosyl residues of the regulatory region were phosphorylated in about 20% of the receptors. As the phosphotransferase was activated by tris-phosphorylation but not bis-phosphorylation of the regulatory region of the β-subunit (White et al.: Journal of Biological Chemistry 263:2969-2980, 1988), the extent of autophosphorylation in the regulatory region may play an important regulatory role during signal transmission in the intact cell.

    Notizen: It has been recognized for many years that α-thrombin, like other better known mitogens (eg, PDGF, EOF, etc) is capable of initiating proliferation in quiescent cells belonging to the fibroblast family. However, unlike these other peptides, thrombin is a serine protease whose function as a growth stimulator for fibroblasts is intimately linked to its estefolytic activity. Thus, while native α-thrombin is capable of evoking DNA synthesis in GoG1-arrested cells, neither enzymatically inactive thrombin (eg, iPR2P-α-thrombin) nor partially degraded thrombin (eg, γ-thrombin) shares in this capability. Data from our laboratory have shown that thrombin is chemotactic for peripheral blood monocytes and for cells belonging to the monocyte/macrophage family and that this activity is not dependent upon thrombin's enzymatic properties. Our recent findings demonstrate that thrombin also serves as a growth factor for these cells, and this mitogenic capability is independent of esterolytic function and resides in the same region of the molecule as that responsible for chemotaxis. Additionally, by means of techniques such as computer modeling and peptide synthesis, we have now been able to delineate a distinct mitogenic subsite within this chemotactic thrombin sequence. Thus, the sequence in the thrombin B chain that mediates chemotaxis represents a true cell interactive exosite additionally capable of stimulating growth and possibly other biological functions in cells of macrophage/monocyte lineage.

    Notizen: These studies compare the voltammetric behavior of solutions and adsorbed layers of the following unsaturated alcohols: benzyl alcohol (BZA), 4-pyridylcarbinol (4PC), allyl alcohol (AA), propargyl alcohol (PGA), cis-2-butene-1,4-diol (CBED), and 2-butyne-1,4-diol (BYD). They were undertaken for well-characterized Pt(111) electrode surfaces which were either annealed in an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) or electrochemically cycled, as well as for annealed (UHV) Pt(poly). Electrochemical oxidation of BZA, AA, PGA, CBED, and BYD in aqueous fluoride electrolyte proceeds in two stages: first the alcohol moiety is oxidized to CO2 (0.4 V), followed by oxidation of the resulting adsorbed hydrocarbon (alkene, alkyne, or phenyl, 1.0 V); 4PC is relatively inert. The alcohol moiety in 4PC, which is located opposite the pyridine ring from the surface, does not undergo oxidation at an appreciable rate. in fact, 4PC effectively passivates the surface and poisons the electrochemical activity. Electrochemical cycling of the annealed Pt(111) single-crystal surface greatly increases the oxidation rates of the aliphatic alcohols and, to a lesser extent, increases the oxidation rate of BZA. The oxidation rate enhancement is somewhat smaller if the electrode is electrochemically cycled in the presence of the alcohol. The majority of the difference effected by cycling can be observed after only one cycle. Voltammetry on polycrystalline Pt surfaces resembles that on cycled Pt(111) surfaces for PGA and AA, but resembles that on cycled Pt(111) surfaces for PGA and AA, but resembles that on annealed Pt(111) more closely for the diols CBED and BYD.

    Notizen: Both the insulin receptor and the gene product of the Rous sarcoma virus, pp60src, are protein kinases which phosphorylate themselves and other proteins on tyrosinc residues. Addition of the solubilized insulin receptor to purified pp60src increased the phosphorylation of the β-subunit of the insulin receptor. Phosphorylation of the insulin receptor by pp60src occurred both in the absence and presence of insulin but did not alter the insulin dose response for autophosphorylation of the receptor. Increasing concentrations of pp60src increased the phosphorylation of the receptor and at high concentrations equaled the maximal effect produced by insulin. Our observations suggest a possible mechanism by which the metabolically regulated insulin receptor tyrosine kinase could be altered by other tyrosine kinases such as that associated with pp60src. Further studies will be required to determine if the insulin receptor is phosphorylated by pp60src in Rous sarcoma virus-infected cells.

    Notizen: Various glycolytic and gluconeogenic enzymes were tested as substrates for the insulin receptor kinase. Phosphofructokinase and phosphoglycerate mutase were found to be the best substrates. Phosphorylation of these enzymes was rapid, stimulated 2- to 6-fold by 10-7 M insulin and occurred exclusively on tyrosine residues. Enolase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, lactate dehydrogenases in decreasing order, were also subject to insulin-stimulated phosphorylation but to a smaller extent than that for phpsphofructokinase or phosphoglycerate mutase.The phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase was studied most extensively since phosphofructokinase is known to catalyze a rate-limiting step in glycolosis. The apparent Km of the insulin receptor for phosphofructokinase was 0.1 μM, which is within the physiologic range of concentration of this enzyme in most cells. Tyrosine phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase paralleled autophosphorylation of the β-subunit of the insulin receptor with respect to time course, insulin dose response (half maximal effect between 10-9 and 10-8 M insulin), and cation requirement (Mn2+ 〉 Mg2+ 〉 〉 Ca2+). Further study will be required to determine whether the tyrosine phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase plays a role in insulin-stimulated increases in glycolytic flux.

    Notizen: The potential role of viral persistence with nontransforming viruses on cellular growth and cellular function has received little attention. We found that when infected with type 3 reovirus (five plaque-forming units (PFU)/cell), balb/C 3T3 cells (a mouse embryo fibroblast cell line) undergo a limited lytic phase. The surviving cells, about 90% of the original cells, appear morphologically normal by light microscopy and exhibit normal growth patterns in serum-supplemented medium but are persistently infected by electron microscopy. These persistently infected cells shed infectious virus in the culture medium (1.6-60 × 106 PFU per 106 cells per 24 h). In comparison to control uninfected 3T3 cells, the persistently infected cells exhibit a 70-90% decrease in receptor number for epidermal growth factor (EGF). This occurs without production of any EGF-like material and is associated with a parallel decrease in EGF-stimulated DNA synthesis. By contrast, insulin receptors are increased in number three-fold and insulin and serum stimulated DNA synthesis are comparable to control uninfected cells. These results suggest that persistent infection with a nontransforming virus may lead to major alteration in control of cell growth by specific growth factors.

    Notizen: Insulin is a potent, reversible inhibitor of proliferation in Cloudman S91 mouse melanoma cells. The inhibition seems to be unique to the Cloudman line since five other cell lines, including the mouse B16 and hamster Greene melanomas, were unaffected by insulin under the same culture conditions. Variants of Cloudman S91 cells were isolated which differed from wildtype (WT) cells in their response to insulin. Most of these variants were resistant to insulin (INSres) and had the same generation time independent of the presence of the hormone. One line (INSdep) was found to require insulin for growth. This line was about 15 times more sensitive to the proliferative effects of insulin than the WT. Revertants of the INSdep line were selected for their ability to proliferate in the absence of insulin. Five out of five such revertants were insulin resistant, suggesting that the INSdep line arose as a result of at least two separate mutations.Both WT and INSdep cells showed enhanced uptake of 14C-α-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) when exposed to insulin. Dose-response curves of the stimulation of AIB uptake in WT and INSdep cells were superimposable. Stimulation of AIB uptake and stimulation of proliferation by insulin were not under coordinate control since AIB uptake was increased equally in the wild-type cells when proliferation was inhibited and in INSdep cells when proliferation was enhanced.Binding of 125I-insulin was used to demonstrate the presence of specific, high affinity insulin receptors on the cells. INSres variants generally had fewer receptors than WT, but in no case did the magnitude of this effect appear to be sufficient to explain the insensitivity to insulin. The INSdep variant showed a greater than two-fold increase in the number of insulin receptors per cell, compared to WT. Revertants of the INSdep line had the same number of receptors as WT. The specificity for both binding and for the effects on proliferation were the same in WT and INSdep cells. Since the effects of insulin on proliferation were opposite in the two lines, we propose at least two distinct sites of insulin action on the cells. Further isolation and analyses of Cloudman lines with unusual responses to insulin should be useful for understanding the molecular basis of action of this hormone.
