    Notizen: Milligram amounts of mammalian ciliary axonemes were isolated from porcine tracheas. These were reactivated upon addition of ATP, indicating intact functional capability with a mean beat frequency at 37°C of 8.2 Hz. Electron microscopy showed typical ultrastructure of the isolated demembranated axonemes. Electrophoresis into polyacrylamide gradient gels containing sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed reproducible protein profiles from ten different tracheal preparations. Four major protein bands were observed in the 300-330 K molecular weight region, as well as tubulin at 51-54K. Extraction of the isolated tracheal axonemes with 0.6M KCl removed the outer dynein arms seen in electron microscopic cross-section of axonemes, preferentially solubilized two of the high molecular weight proteins at 320 and 330 K, and resulted in a three- to four-fold increase in ATPase specific activity. Sedimentation of the dialyzed salt extract on a 5-30% sucrose density gradient and subsequent fractionation yielded two peaks of ATPase activity. The faster migrating, 19S major ATPase peak correlated with the 320 and 330 K proteins, and two other proteins at 81 and 67 K. The slower sedimenting, 12S minor ATPase peak corresponded to a 308 K protein and two smaller proteins at 33 and 48 K. Thus, the outer dynein arm of tracheal cilia appeared to be associated with at least two high molecular weight proteins. These results demonstrate that adequate quantities of functionally intact axonemes can be reproducibly isolated from porcine tracheas, allowing further fractionation and analysis of mammalian cilia.

    Prelimlnary report on the ultrastructural organization of the contractile appendix of Tontonia appendiculariformis (ciliophora oligotrichina) (1986)

    Notizen: Tontonia appendiculariformis is a marine planktonic ciliate with a long tail. The tail can contract rapidly, becoming transformed into an oval mass one-twentieth of its original length. The highly complex ulrastructure of the tail is described here in detail. A large part of the volume of the tail contains numerous more or less parallel membranous tubes. The membrane of the tubes has numerous invaginations and is probably derived from the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. This tubular material forms a continuous layer around the tail, interrupted in only one region, which contains cilia. Associated with the cilia are basal fibres with a periodically banded appearance. The tubular layer forms several folds separated by hyaloplasm containing many mitochondria. The pellicle of the tail is thrown into numerous pleats. It comprises a perilemma, a plasmalemma, and complex alveoli, but epiplasm and microtubules are absent. The alveoli appear to form septa within the folds of the layer of membranous tubes. In the region where the tail is attached to the body of the ciliate there are conspicuous bundles of microtubules and microfilaments. The membranous tubes and septa appear to be connected to small bundles of microfilaments, which presumably represent the contractile material. However, we consider the membranous tubes as potentially active in producing the change in shape. Although the structure of the tail of Tontonia is unique, there are certain similarities to the stalk of the Tintinnina and also to the motile extension of the dinoflagellate Erythropsidinium.

    A model for the molecular basis of filament contractility and sliding as demonstrated by helix models (1986)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell
    Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton 6 (1986), S. 229-236

    Thema: Biologie , Medizin
    Notizen: The twisting behavior of α helices has hardly been considered hitherto with regard to the function of proteins. The well-known electrostatic repulsion between the highly charged side chains, which depends on their interaction with ions, is absolutely connected with torsional rotations of the helix as long as its hydrogen bonds hold. This means a direct transformation of chemical into mechanical energy. However, the stability of a twisted single α helix with charged side chains is low in an aqueous environment. It may easily ball up to form a globular molecule with nonhelical regions of the polypeptide chain. This corresponds to a primitive contraction that obviously occurs with spasminlike proteins that contain strongly twisted filaments as Salisbury [J. Submicrosc. Cytol. 15:105-110, 1983] has shown. Steps that increase the stability and rigidity of α helical filaments are (1) the formation of coiled-coils, (2) self-intertwining (“telephone cord phenomenon”) or intertwining with other coiled-coils as shown with the intermediate filaments, and (3) association with cytoskeletal elements (microfilaments, protofilaments of microtubules) that contain globular subunits. These coarser elements are rotated by winding and unwinding of the smaller helical molecules and thus transmit the torsion produced in the α helices to the microscopic level by the sliding (screwing) motion and the shearing effect that is connected with the waves of a rotating helix. Particles are transported if connected to the helical side arms. Since the displacement of the side arms seems to occur along the single protofilaments of a microtubule, a rotation of these protofiiaments is suggested. The bidirectional transport of particles along single microtubules may be explained by the association of left- and right-handed helices with the protofilaments. According to the models, parallel and antiparallel sliding of neurofilaments and neurotubules is suggested.

    Regulation of ciliary motility by membrane potential in Paramecium: A role for cyclic AMP (1986)

    Thema: Biologie , Medizin
    Notizen: The membrane potential of Paramecium controls the frequency and direction of the ciliary beat, thus determining the cell's swimming behavior. Stimuli that hyperpolarize the membrane potential increase the ciliary beat frequency and therefore increase forward swimming speed. We have observed that (1) drugs that elevate intracellular cyclic AMP increased swimming speed 2-3-fold, (2) hyperpolarizing the membrane potential by manipulation of extracellular cations (e.g., K+) induced both a transient increase in, and a higher sustained level of cyclic AMP compared to the control, and (3) the swimming speed of detergent-permeabilized cells in MgATP was stimulated 2-fold by the addition of cyclic AMP. Our results suggest that the membrane potential can regulate intracellular cAMP in Paramecium and that control of swimming speed by membrane potential may in part be mediated by cAMP.

    The lack of interaction between vinculin and actin (1986)

    Notizen: Vinculin was purified from chicken gizzard by a modification of the method of Feramisco and Burridge [1980; J Biol Chem 255:1194]. Vinculin did not alter the viscosity of actin as measured in an Ostwald viscometer, nor did it affect actin polymerization as measured with the fluorescent NBD-actin assay. Sedimentation experiments demonstrated that vinculin did not bind to actin, and electron microscopy of negatively stained specimens indicated that vinculin did not aggregate actin filaments into bundles. These results suggest that vinculin, by itself, does not interact with actin at least under commonly used conditions to assay actin-protein interactions in vitro.

    Fungal nuclear behavior analysed by ultraviolet microbeam irradiation (1986)

    Notizen: During hyphal tip growth in the fungus Basidiobolus magnus, nuclei normally maintain a constant distance from the advancing cell apex by continuously migrating forward. It is not known whether the mechanism that produces nuclear movement also mediates nuclear positioning, or whether these two processes are under separate control. By irradiating small cytoplasmic regions with an ultraviolet microbeam, the coordination between movement and positioning could be disrupted. Regardless of the distance of the target from the nucleus, anterior irradiations (those ahead of the nucleus) caused the nucleus to stop or move backwards, whereas posterior (behind the nucleus) irradiations caused an acceleration in the nuclear velocity. The nucleus retained its ability to move following irradiation, so there was only loss of control over normal positioning. These results suggest that movement and positioning are mediated by different mechanisms. Quantitative microtubule analysis demonstrated that microtubules in the target region had been depolymerized, but in other regions of the cell they were apparently normal. We suggest that the depolymerization of microtubules affects nuclear movement by altering the tensile strength of the cytoplasm, and that cytoskeletal tension mediate nuclear positioning.We also found that accelerated nuclear movement could occur when most of the microtubules surrounding the nucleus were depolymerized. A comparison of the microtubule population surrounding the nucleus in unirradiated versus irradiated cells suggested that microtubules move with nuclei. Therefore, the nucleus does not appear to move via a direct interaction with microtubules.

    Evidence for regulation of lamellipodial and tail contraction of glycerinated chicken embryonic fibroblasts by myosin light chain kinase (1986)

    Thema: Biologie , Medizin
    Notizen: Permeabilized cell models of muscle and nonmuscle cells have proven useful for examining the regulation of actin, myosin, and other cytoskeletal proteins during cell contraction. Upon addition of Ca2+ and ATP, glycerinated chick embryonic skin fibroblasts retract their tails and lamellipodia. Ca2+-independent contractions are obtained by preincubation of cell models in Ca2+ ATPγS, followed by EGTA and ATP addition, or by addition of trypsin-treated myosin light chain kinase that no longer requires Ca2+ for reactivation. By pretreating cells before glycerination with colchicine, it is possible to study lamellipodial contraction independent of tail contraction. Similar responses to ATPγS pretreatment and unregulated myosin light chain kinase are observed in cells that only contain lamellipodia. SDS-PAGE electrophoresis of glycerinated fibroblasts incubated in ATPγ35S and Ca2+ shows that only two major proteins are thiophosphorylated, and that one of them, a band that comigrates with the 20K MW light chain of myosin, is thiophosphorylated in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Since the rate of tail contraction is several-fold faster after Ca2+ and ATPγS pretreatment or incubation in excess myosin light chain kinase, myosin light chain phosphorylation may be a rate-limiting step during contraction.

    Notizen: We describe a new approach to probe the molecular biology of the living cell that uses small colloidal gold particles coupled to specific ligands. They are visualized in cells by bright-field, video enhanced contrast microscopy. We describe the basic aspects of the technique and provide examples of applications to intracellular motility, cell membrane dynamics, receptor translocation, internalization, and intracellular routing. We also provide examples of the use of this approach in immunospecific labelling of cells and tissue sections.

    Incorporation and turnover of labeled exogenous tubulin in the mitotic spindles of Chaetopterus oocytes and HeLa cells (1986)

    Notizen: The incorporation of tubulin into mitotic spindles in situ was studied by incubating permeabilized mitotic cells in solutions containing [3H]GTP-labeled or dichlorotriazinylamino fluorescein (DTAF)-labeled tubulin. Metaphase HeLa cells or spindle-containing “minicells” from Chaetopterus oocytes were lysed in a microtubule-assembly buffer plus 0.5% Nonidet P-40, 1 mg/ml 120,000g supernatant mammalian brain tubulin, and [3H]GTP. After different periods of incubation, mitotic spindles were isolated in 2 M-glycerol-containing assembly buffer and separated from unbound counts by centrifugation through a 4 M-glycerol cushion; 3H counts per mg protein increase linearly for 8-12 min and then reach a plateau or steady state in both Chaetopterus oocytes and HeLa cells. Addition of 4 mM CaCl2 blocks or reverses incorporation. Little or no [3H]GTP is incorporated if exogenous tubulin or lysed cells are omitted from the assembly mixture.To measure the loss rate of [3H]GTP-tubulin from mitotic spindles, cells were incubated in tubulin plus [3H]GTP for 30 min, and a 20-fold excess of cold GTP (2 mM) was added. Samples were removed after incubation for different periods, and spindles were isolated as described above and counted for 3H content. [3H]GTP is lost from spindles at a rate of about 16%/min until a new steady state is reached in about 8 min. These results are consistent with an incorporation and turnover of [3H]GTP-tubulin in spindle microtubules of these lysed-cell models.The location of this newly incorporated tubulin in the spindle was investigated by incorporating fluorescent DTAF-tubulin into mitotic spindles of these lysed cell types. A short pulse (2-5 min) appears to label microtubules (MTs) near metaphase chromosomes and longer exposures label the entire spindle.The rates of incorporation and turnover that we see by [3H]GTP and fluorescent tubulin incorporation in situ are faster than those observed with brain MTs at steady state in vitro but are in the range of the rates of spindle fiber formation in prophase, and spindle MT reassembly after cooling.

    Notizen: A survey study of organelle movements in a variety of cell types of plant and animal origin was made with the aid of video-enhanced contrast, differential interference contrast (AVEC-DIC) microscopy followed by fine analysis of the motile behavior of the individual organelles. We found that there exists besides Brownian motion a wide spectrum of active motions in cells, i.e. motion that is directionally biased through the expenditure of metabolic energy. The types of active motion seen range from a continuous motion (sometimes appearing as streaming) in plant cells and neurons to various types of less ordered and less well directed motion. We did not see any clear-cut qualitative difference between plant and animal cells or between systems presumed to be actin- and microtubule-based. A preliminary classification of the types of active motion is presented. The ongoing research activities, which aim at a more precise definition of the different types of motion by a set of quantitative parameters, are described, and the progress made so far is reported.

    Polarized cytoplasmic movement and inhibition of saltations induced by calcium-mediated effects of microbeams in fungal hyphae (1986)

    Notizen: We have investigated the mechanisms that hyphae of the fungus Basidiobolus magnus use to accomplish bulk movement of their cytoplasm and saltatory organelle movements. When cells were irradiated with an ultraviolet microbeam, cytoplasmic contraction occurred. The posterior cytoplasm (toward the septum) always moved forward toward the irradiated area, whereas anterior cytoplasm (between the cell tip and target) never contracted back toward the site of irradiation. Thus, there is an intrinsic polarity in the cytoplasm. Irradiations also arrested saltatory movements. The effects of irradiation on both saltations and cytoplasmic movement appear to be mediated by Ca++. Chelating exogenous Ca++ before irradiation eliminated contractions and prevented the inhibition of saltations. Furthermore, the effects of irradiation could be duplicated by using the Ca++ ionophore A23187. We relate the present results to our previous report on the effects of irradiation on the cytoskeleton [McKerracher and Heath, 1986]. We conclude that two separate cytoskeletal networks exist in fungal cells, and that an actin-containing network generates bulk cytoplasmic movement.

    Notizen: Unidirectional sliding of myosin filaments along F-actin bundles was produced with purified muscle actin and myosin in the presence of ATP. The velocity of myosin filament sliding was independent of myosin filament length. This result supports a recent hypothesis that long distance movement of myosin cross-bridge can be induced by splitting of one ATP molecule [Yanagida, Arata, and Oosawa, 1985. Nature. 316:366-369; Higashi-Fujime. 1985. J. Cell Biol., 101:2335-2344].

    Notizen: Bundles of giant smooth muscle fibers of the ctenophore Beröe have been stretched up to four times their initial length and then examined by transmission electron microscopy. Stretching induces the segregation of actin and thick (myosinlike) filaments into separate domains. The thick filaments domains are made of 20-30 filaments, with a regular spacing identical to that of nonstretched fibers. A moderate stretching permits the visualization of microtendons associating actin filament bundles to hyaluronidase-resistant condensations of the extracellular matrix. It is deduced from these observations that Beröe giant smooth muscle fibers possess myofibrils which attach at both ends upon the sarcolemmal membrane. Each myofibril is probably made of two long actin filament bundles (of approximately 150 filaments) and short (2-3 μm) myosinlike bundles (of approximately 30 filaments).

    Notizen: Motility and the behavior and inheritance of centrosomes are investigated during mouse and sea urchin fertilization. Sperm incorporation in sea urchins requires microfilament activity in both sperm and eggs as tested with Latrunculin A, a novel inhibitor of microfilament assembly. In contrast the mouse spermhead is incorporated in the presence of microfilament inhibitors indicating an absence of microfilament activity at this stage. Pronuclear apposition is arrested by microfilament inhibitors in fertilized mouse oocytes. The migrations of the sperm and egg nuclei during sea urchin fertilization are dependent on microtubules organized into a radial monastral array, the sperm aster. Microtubule activity is also required during pronuclear apposition in the mouse egg, but they are organized by numerous egg cytoplasmic sites. By the use of an autoimmune antibody to centrosomal material, centrosomes are detected in sea urchin sperm but not in unfertilized eggs. The sea urchin centrosome expands and duplicates during first interphase and condenses to form the mitotic poles during division. Remarkably mouse sperm do not appear to have the centrosomal antigen and instead centrosomes are found in the unfertilized oocyte. These results indicate that both microfilaments and microtubules are required for the successful completion of fertilization in both sea urchins and mice, but at different stages. Furthermore they demonstrate that centrosomes are contributed by the sperm during sea urchin fertilization, but they might be maternally inherited in mammals.

    Notizen: We recently showed by videomicroscopy that adjacent pellicular strips slide relative to each other without contraction during S-shaped bending movement in Euglena fusca (Suzaki and Williamson, 1985). In order to validate this sliding strip mechanism for other species and other shape changes, a theoretical analysis and a computer simulation were carried out. Some of the commonly observed euglenoid cell shapes (rounded. S-shaped, and embryo-like shapes) were generated. Our results suggest that Euglena probably achieves a variety of cell shape changes by means of locally regulated sliding between adjacent pellicular strips of constant length and width.

    Notizen: Synchronized cultures of Dictyostelium discoideum were used to study organizational changes of the cytoskeleton during mitotic cell division. The agar-overlay technique (Yumura et al.: J. Cell Biol. 99:894-899, 1984) was employed for immunofluorescence localization and video microscopic observation of living mitotic cells. The mitotic phase was defined by changes in chromosome configuration by using a double stain with the fluorescent dye DAPI.This study showed that the actin- and myosin-containing cytoskeleton was reversibly redistributed between the cortical ectoplasm and the endoplasm during prophase and telophase. Both actin and myosin filaments were dissociated from the cell cortex in prophase. Most of the actin and myosin was filamentous and remained in the endoplasm until telophase. Saltatory movements of organelles stopped suddenly, coincident with the breakdown of the cytoplasmic microtubule network. This change in the microtubule system was temporally coupled with the disappearance of actomyosin from the cortex. At the same time, the local vibrating movement of particles almost stopped, suggesting that the viscoelastic nature of the endoplasm was altered. In the late anaphase, actin and myosin relocalized to the cortical ectoplasm. Early in this phase, myosin filaments were localized specifically at the anticipated cleavage furrow region of the cleavage furrow, whereas actin filaments were redistributed more uniformly in the cell cortex, with an extremely large accumulation in the polar pseudopods. Subsequently the actin formed an orderly parallel array of cables along with myosin filaments in the contractile ring.The spatial segregation of actin and myosin in late anaphase was clearly demonstrated by multipolar cell division of artificially induced giant cells. Actin was relocalized in both the polar and the proximal constricting regions whereas myosin was only localized in the center of each pair of daughter microtubule networks where the cleavage furrow was formed. This study demonstrates that actin and myosin are reorganized by a temporally coordinated but spatially different mechanism during cytokinesis of Dictyostelium.

    Notizen: Protein phosphorylation during development of sea urchin eggs from fertilization to first cleavage was examined by labeling cells with specific antiphosphoprotein antibodies. Indirect immunofluorescence staining with monoclonal antithiophos-phoprotein antibody (Gerhart et al.: Cytobios 43:335-347, 1985) has revealed that nuclei as well as centrosomes, kinetochores, and midbodies were specifically thiophosphorylated in developing eggs incubated with adenosine 5′-O (3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP-γ-S). The phosphorylation reaction required Mg2+ but was not dependent on cAMP or calmodulin in detergent-extracted models. Centrosomes were purified by fractionation of isolated mitotic spindles with 0.5 M KCl extraction. The thiophosphoproteins were retained in the purified centrosomes and the antibody recognized a major 225-Kd polypeptide on immunoblots. In an independent preparation, a monoclonal antiphosphoprotein antibody (CHO3) was found also to react with mitotic poles and stained a 225-Kd polypeptide, confirming the centrosome specificity of this protein. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that the 225-Kd thiophosphoprotein was found at mitotic poles associated with granules to which mitotic microtubules were directly attached. Unlike centrosomes in permeabilized eggs, those in isolated spindles could not be thiophosphorylated, possibly due to inactivation or loss of either phosphorylation enzymes or cofactors, or both, during isolation. The immunofluorescence labeling of thiophosphate could be inhibited by ATP and AMP-PNP in a concentration-dependent manner. Exogenous ATP could abolish thiophosphate-staining more effectively when added with phosphatase inhibitors, suggesting a dynamic state in which centrosomal proteins are being phosphorylated and dephosphorylated in rapid succession by the action of protein kinase(s) and phosphatase(s).

    Notizen: Chromosome movements in Mesostoma ehrenbergii spermatocytes were studied using conventional video light microscopy. Kinetochore regions of the three bipolarly oriented bivalents displayed periodic back and forth movements directed to both poles at metaphase I, leading to periodic lenght changes of the bivalents. Velocity was 8-10 μm/min (maximum 17 μ/min), about one order of magnitude higher than the normal meiotic or mitotic chromosome movements of other species. One cycle of movement lasted for about 100 seconds. The movement of kinetochore regions implies that the antagonistic chromosome fibres periodically grow (assemble) and shorten (disassemble) at comparable rates. Poleward movements must be caused by forces generated in disassembling fibres, whereas movements away from the poles, accompanied by fibre growth, are probably brought about by the internal elastic force of the chromosomes. Antagonistic fibres of a bivalent can operate in or out of phase. The movements of the three kinetochore regions are coordinated insofar as growing and shortening fibres coexist in a half-spindle at almost any time [Fuge, H. (1987): European Journal of Cell Biology 44:294-298]. These observations are discussed in terms of microtubule dynamics.

    Notizen: The 2-substituted ATP analog 2-Chloro ATP was tested for its capacity to support axonemal movement. The movement of sea urchin axonemes reactivated with 2-CI ATP appeared very similar to that with ATP. Detailed waveform analysis indicated that bend angle and shear amplitude were not significantly different for ATP and 2-CI ATP. Although wavelength differs at particular nucleotide concentrations, if normalized to the beat frequency, it is similar for ATP and 2-CI ATP. The main difference in the movement with the two analogs was seen in beat frequency and sliding velocity. The Vmax for beat frequency and mean sliding velocity was lower for 2-CI ATP. The apparent Km for beat frequency and sliding velocity was much lower for 2-CI ATP. The ratio of these two effects, that is, (Vmax/Km) is higher for 2-CI ATP. Thus 2-CI ATP is a good substrate for axonemal movement. The significantly lower Km of 2-CI ATP was also demonstrated by its ability to support oscillatory motion at concentrations below that for ATP. The observations identify the structures and conformation of substrate necessary to support axonemal movement.

    Notizen: A model for slow axonal transport is developed in which the essential features are reversible binding of cytoskeletal elements and of soluble cytosolic proteins to each other and to motile elements such as actin microfilaments. Computer simulation of the equations of the model demonstrate that the model can account for many of the features of the SCa and SCb waves observed in pulse experiments. The model also provides a unified explanation for the increase and decrease of neurofilament transport rates observed in various toxicant-induced neuropathies.

    Notizen: To investigate the association of calmodulin (CaM) with microtubules (MTs) in the mitotic apparatus (MA), the distributions of CaM and tubulin were examined in cells in which the normal spindle organization had been altered. A fluorescent CaM conjugate with tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate (CaM-TRITC) and a dichlorotriazinyl aminofluorescein conjugate with tubulin (tubulin-DTAF) were injected into cells that had been treated with the MT inhibitor nocodazole. With moderate nocodazole concentration (0.3 μg/ml, 37°C, 4 h) in live cells, CaM-TRITC and tubulin-DTAF concentrated identically on or near the centrosomes and kinetochores. In serial sections of these cells, small MT segments were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in the regions where fluorescent protein had concentrated. When a higher drug concentration was used (3.0 μg/ml, 37°C, 4 h), no regions of CaM-TRITC or tubulin-DTAF localization were observed, and no MTs were observed when serial sections were examined by TEM. However, following release from the high-concentration nocodazole block, CaM-TRITC colocalized with newly formed MTs at the kinetochores and centrosomes. Later in the recovery period, when chromosome-to-pole fibers had formed, CaM association with kinetochores diminished, ultimately attaining its normal pole-proximal association with kinetochore MTs in cells that progressed through mitosis. We interpret these observations as supporting the hypothesis that in the MA, CaM attains a physical association with kinetochore MTs and suggest that CaM-associated MTs may be inherently more stable.

    Notizen: The spleen of Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl) larvae develops as a closed sac containing differentiating nucleated erythrocytes, and is typically isolated from the general circulation for about 10 days post-hatching. Beginning 3-4 days posthatching, it can be removed intact for examination of the morphology and cytoskeletal structure of the erythropoietic cells. In the smallest (earliest) spleens, spheroidal cells predominate, while older ones contain a preponderance of cells exhibiting the flattened elliptical morphology typical of all non-mammalian vertebrate erythrocytes. Most striking in the splenic erythroid population are cells with singly or doubly pointed morphology. Though common in the developing spleen and circulation of young larvae, pointed cells are less frequently encountered in the circulation of older larvae, indicating that they are intermediate stages in the differentiation of spheroids to flattened ellipsoids. This is supported by structural observations on cytoskeletons prepared from the splenic cells. Incomplete singly and doubly pointed marginal bands of microtubules are observed, many of which contain a pair of centrioles within or close to a pointed end, suggestive of organizing center function. The observations are consistent with a sequence of changes in cell morphology from spherical to doubly pointed to singly pointed to flattened ellipse, causally linked to stages of marginal band biogenesis.

    Notizen: The relationship of nascent myofibrils with the accumulation of adhesion plaque proteins and the formation of focal cell contacts was studied in embryonic chick cardiac myocytes in vitro. The cultures were double-stained with various combinations of the specific antiactin drug phalloidin and antibodies against vinculin, α-actinin, connectin (titin), myosin heavy chain, fibronectin, and desmin and examined under fluorescence and interference reflection microscopy.In the areas of myofibril assembly, vinculin and α-actinin plaques were formed at the ventral sarcolemmae. These areas overlapped with the sites of cell-to-substrate focal contacts and extracellular fibronectin. Because the myofibrils always ran in a straight line between these sites, polarized lines appeared to be generated within the cells in response to their physical (e.g., stress) and/or biochemical environment (e.g., adhesion plaque proteins). The possible presence of other factors cannot be ruled out for the proper alignment of myofibrils. As soon as myofibrils came to span between these adhesion sites, they exhibited typically mature cross-striated characteristics. Thus, the formation of these inferred lines has some relation to or is in fact necessary for the maturation of myofibrils, in addition to the directional arrangement of sarcomeric proteins.Additionally, synthesis and distribution of myosin and connectin were tightly linked during early developmental (premyofibril and myofibril) stages. The spatial deployment of desmin was not coupled with vinculin. Thus, connectin and desmin do not appear to form the initial scaffold of sarcomeres.

    Notizen: The comparative distribution of tyrosinated, detyrosinated, and acetylated α-tubulins was examined in neurites of rat dorsal root ganglion neurones in culture using immunofluorescence microscopy. Phase contrast observations of single neurones revealed that the neurites were actively motile, and rhodamine phalloidin staining of actin filaments showed the extent of lamellopodia and microspike projections from the growth cones. From double-labelling experiments using antibodies against tyrosinated, detryrosinated, or acetylated α-tubulin, it was found that the three different isoforms were differentially localised in neurites and growth cones. Detyrosinated and acetylated forms of α-tubulin were in the main restricted to the neurites extending no further than the base of the growth cones. Tyrosinated α-tubulin was, however, distributed throughout the body of the growth cone and into the base of some microspikes. Following treatment with taxol to promote microtubule assembly, detyrosinated and acetylated α-tubulins were found to be colocalised with tyrosinated α-tubulins throughout the growth cones of all cells examined. These results would be consistent with axonal transport of tyrosinated α-tubulin followed by assembly in the growth cone and subsequent detyrosination and acetylation. In addition the presence of unmodified α-tubulin in the growth cone may be necessary for the provision of labile microtubules for growth cone motility and extension.

    Notizen: The distribution of myosin was studied in amebae of the Ax-3 and NC-4 strains of Dictyostelium migrating at room temperature, using indirect immunofluorescence of aggregation-competent amebae and the agar-overlay technique. Amebae were fixed in methanol-formaldehyde or absolute acetone at -15°C before or after stimulation with micromolar cyclic AMP at room temperature (20-25°C). Myosin was detected by monoclonal antibodies to Dictyostelium myosin heavy chain followed by a fluorescent secondary antibody that had been preabsorbed to remove nonspecific staining. In both strains there was a striking increase in intensity of anti-myosin immunofluorescence in the cortex where it appeared as a continuous ring 30 seconds after addition of cyclic AMP. This correlated with a rounding up of the cell body. Sixty seconds after stimulation there was a clear reduction of cytoplasmic myosin rods in conjunction with the increased cortical localization. At this time extensions of largely hyaline cytoplasm were observed that extended beyond the cortical shell of myosin. Two minutes after the stimulus the immunofluorescence remained as a distinct line at the cortex, but the cells began to resume in elongated shape. By 3 minutes (NC-4 strain) or 5 minutes (Ax-3 strain) the amebae had largely returned to the control shape, and myosin had returned to its control distribution. Counts of the treated cells at different time points substantiated the observations of individual cells. The time course of translocation of myosin in the Ax-3 strain parallels the time course of myosin phosphorylation reported in previous studies. The results are interpreted in terms of a working hypothesis for the mechanism of translocation.

    Notizen: Double-label immunofluorescence of tubulin and preicentriolar material (PCM) was carried out with mitotic nuclei in the coenocytic green alga Ernodesmis. Spindle poles are heavily labeled with serum 5051 (anti-PCM) from midprophase through mid- to late anaphase, and bright fluorescence is also evident at the tips of the elongated interzonal spindle in telophase nuclei. Very faint labeling with anti-PCM is also detected throughout the spindle (and/or its matrix) at all mitotic stages. Control treatments demonstrated that nonspecific surface labeling of chloroplasts with anti-PCM may be due to some naturally occurring component of human sera rather than to specific labeling by the anti-PCM serum. Ultrastructural work indicates that the centrosome is always associated with spindle poles through anaphase, but not with the tips of the interzonal telophase Immunoper-oxidase electron microscopy verifies that anti-PCM labels the centrosomes of mitotic nuclei in these cells. However, labeling is also present inside the presistent nuclear envelope at the spindle poles, during metaphase, anaphase, and at the tips of the interzonal spindles. Regions of heaviest labeling correspond with amorphous material near the centrioles and at the spindle poles, as evident in conventional electron microscope preparations. The origin of intranuclear amorphous material that labels with anti-PCM is unclear, but the ends of many spindle microtubules are embedded in it, especially at anaphase, and the tips of microtubules near the amorphous material are often labeled with the antiserum. These results indicate for the first time that serum 5051 does indeed label PCM at the poles of centric spindles in plant cells. Although the location of the labeled material suggests it is associated with the nucleation of spindle microtubules, this conclusion requires more information about microtubule dynamics in these cells. Caution is also warranted in interpreting variant anti-PCM labeling patterns in other plant cells because of spurious labeling of the spindle itself and other cytoplasmic organelles.

    Notizen: We have previously shown that BHK syncytia have the ability to locomote provided the centrospheres are clustered and located adjacent to the cluster of nuclei. This article reports that experimental reorganizations of the centrospheres or the nuclei change the motile behavior of BHK syncytia in a way that is consistent with our previous observations: When fusion of the multiple nuclei occurred in stationary syncytia whose multiple nuclei encircled the centrosphere cluster, the centrospheres were expelled from the ring of nuclei. Consequently, locomotion was initiated in these syncytia even if they had been previously stationary for up to 5 days. Conversely, when a 2-hour incubation in 5 μg/ml cytocholasin B caused the cluster of nuclei to surround the centrosphere cluster, the locomotion of the syncytia was inhibited. Similarly, the dispersal of the centrosphere cluster induced by a 4-hour incubation in 1 μg/ml of colcemid resulted in the long-term cessation of locomotion in motile syncytia.

    Notizen: Actin and the light chains of myosin were labeled with fluorescent dyes and injected into interphase PtK2 cells in order to study the changes in distribution of actin and myosin that occurred when the injected cells subsequently entered mitosis and divided. The first changes occurred when stress fibers in prophase cells began to disassemble. During this process, which began in the center of the cell, individual fibers shortened, and in a few fibers, adjacent bands of fluorescent myosin could be seen to move closer together. In most cells, stress fiber disassembly was complete by metaphase, resulting in a diffuse distribution of the fluorescent proteins throughout the cytoplasm with the greatest concentration present in the mitotic spindle. The first evidence of actin and myosin concentration in a cleavage ring occurred at late anaphase, just before furrowing could be detected. Initially, the intensity of fluorescence and the width of the fluorescent ring increased as the ring constricted. In cells with asymmetrically positioned mitotic spindles, both protein concentration and furrowing were first evident in the cortical regions closest to the equator of the mitotic spindle. As cytokinesis progressed in such asymmetrically dividing cells, fluorescent actin and myosin appeared at the opposite side of the cell just before furrowing activity could be seen there. At the end of cytokinesis, myosin and actin were concentrated beneath the membrane of the midbody and subsequently became organized in two rings at either end of the midbody.

    Notizen: Mitotic spindles isolated from the diatom Stephanopyxis turris become thiophosphorylated in the presence of ATPγS at specific locations within the mitotic apparatus, resulting in a stimulation of ATP-dependent spindle elongation in vitro. Here, using indirect immunofluorescence, we compare the staining pattern of an antibody against thiophosphorylated proteins to that of MPM-2, an antibody against mitosis-specific phosphoproteins, in isolated spindles. Both antibodies label spindle poles, kinetochores, and the midzone. Neither antibody exhibits reduced labeling in salt-extracted spindles, although prior salt extraction inhibits thiophosphorylation in ATPγS. Furthermore, both antibodies recognize a 205 kd band on immunoblots of spindle extracts. Microtubule-organizing centers and mitotic spindles label brightly with the MPM-2 antibody in intact cells. These results show that functional mitotic spindles isolated from S. turris are phosphorylated both in vivo and in vitro. We discuss the possible role of phosphorylated cytoskeletal proteins in the control of mitotic spindle function.

    Notizen: The localization of kinesin in EBTr (bovine embryonic trachea fibroblast) cells was studied by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy using an affinity-purified antibody against bovine adrenal kinesin.It has already been shown that in interphase cells a part of kinesin is located on microtubules and the rest diffusely distributed throughout the cytoplasm [Murofushi et al., 1988]. When microtubules were depolymerized with cold or colchicine treatment, antikinesin antibody-stained fibrous components distinct from microtubules. These fibrous structures were considered to be stress fibers because they were stained with rhodamine-phalloidin and because the fibrous staining with antikinesin antibody was completely lost by treating the cells with cytochalasin D along with colchicine. When cold-treated cells in which a major part of kinesin had been localized on stress fibers were incubated at 37°C, kinesin reappeared on reconstituted microtubules. These observations strongly suggest that kinesin has affinity not only to microtubules but also to stress fibers in culture cells.

    Notizen: The spectrins are a family of cytoskeletal-membrane proteins that have a wide tissue distribution. In the present study, we employed polyclonal antibodies made against mammalian and avian erythroid spectrins as well as mammalian brain spectrin to assess their presence and distributions in the mammalian heart. Western blot analyses revealed that all three antibodies were specific for a 240,000 molecular weight α-spectrin subunit found in hamster erythrocyte ghost homogenates, whole hamster heart, and isolated hamster cardiac myofibril homogenates. Spectrin staining was absent from the Triton X-100-extracted supernatant fraction of myofibril preparations, suggesting that the protein is linked to the myofibril precipitate after exposure to the detergent. Frozen, unfixed, 2-μm-thick; sections of adult, Syrian golden hamster cardiac tissue exhibited strong immunofluorescent staining of intercalated discs and Z-bands using all three antibodies. In addition, the mammalian erythroid spectrin antibodies showed staining of the sarcolemma, and in cross section, revealed a delicate internal network of staining that appears to surround individual myofibrils. This may be T-tubule-associated staining. Myofibrils isolated from cardiac myocytes using Triton X-100 show positive Z-band staining using all three antibodies. Double staining with Texas Red-labeled monoclonal desmin and FITC-labeled polyclonal spectrin antibodies revealed that both stained the myofibrillar Z-line regions. These results demonstrate that spectrin is closely associated with the membranes, myofibrils, and intermediate filaments in the mammalian heart.

    Notizen: The authors examined the molecular organization of myosin in stress fibers (microfilament bundles) of cultured mouse embryo fibroblasts. To visualize the organization of myosin filaments in these cells, fibroblast cytoskeletons were treated with gelsolin-like protein from bovine brain (hereafter called brain gelsolin), which selectively disrupts actin filaments. As shown earlier [Verkhovsky et al., 1987], this treatment did not remove myosin from the stress fibers. The actin-free cytoskeletons then were lightly sonicated to loosen the packing of the remaining stress fiber components and fixed with glutaraldehyde.Electron microscopy of platinum replicas of these preparations revealed dumbbell-shaped structures of approximately 0.28 μm in length, which were identified as bipolar myosin filaments by using antibodies to fragments of myosin molecule (subfragment I and light meromyosin) and colloidal gold label. Bipolar filaments of myosin in actin-free cytoskeletons were often organized in chains and lattices formed by end-to-end contacts of individual filaments at their head-containing regions. Therefore, after extraction of actin, it was possible for the first time to display bipolar myosin filaments in the stress fibers of cultured cells.

    Notizen: Determination of kinetic properties for kinesin adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), a proposed motor for transport of membranous organelles, requires adequate amounts of kinesin with a consistent level of enzymatic activity. A purification procedure is detailed that produces approximately 2 mg of kinesin at up to 96% purity from 800 g of bovine brain. This protocol consists of a microtubule affinity step using 5′-adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP); followed by gel filtration, ion exchange, and hydroxylapatite chromatography; and then sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The microtubule-activated ATPase activity of kinesin coeluted with kinesin polypeptides throughout the purification. Highly purified kinesin had a Vmax of 0.31 μmol/min/mg in the presence of microtubules, with a Km for ATP of 0.20 mM. The kinetic constants obtained in these studies compare favorably with physiological levels of ATP and microtubules. Variations in buffer conditions for the assay were found to affect ATPase activity significantly. A study of the ability of kinesin to utilize a variety of cation-ATP complexes indicated that kinesin is a microtubule-stimulated Mg-ATPase, but kinesin is able to hydrolyze Ca-ATP, Mn-ATP, and Co-ATP as well as Mg-ATP in the presence of microtubules. In the absence of microtubules, Ca-ATP appears to be the best substrate. Studies with several inhibitors of ATPases determined that vanadate inhibited kinesin ATPase at the lowest concentrations of inhibitor, but significant inhibition of the ATPase also occurred with submillimolar concentrations of AMP-PNP. Other inhibitors of kinesin include N-ethylmaleimide, adenosine diphosphate (ADP), pyrophosphate, and tripolyphosphate. Further characterization of the kinetic properties of the kinesin ATPase is important for understanding the molecular mechanisms for transport of membranous organelles along microtubules.

    Changes in the association of actin-binding proteins with the actin cytoskeleton during chemotactic stimulation of Dictyostelium discoideum (1989)

    Notizen: Triton-insoluble cytoskeletons were isolated from Dictyostelium discoideum AX3 cells prior to and following stimulation with 2′deoxy cyclic adenosine monophos-phate (cAMP). Temporal changes in the content of actin and a 120,000 dalton actin-binding protein (ABP-120) in cytoskeletons following stimulation were monitored. Both actin and ABP-120 were incorporated into the cytoskeleton at 30-40 seconds following stimulation, which is cotemporal with the onset of pseudopod extension during stimulation of amoebae with chemoattraciants. Changes in the content of total cytoskeletal protein and cytoskeletal myosin were determined under the same experimental conditions as controls. These proteins exhibited different kinetics from those of cytoskeletal ABP-120 and actin following the addition of 2′deoxy cAMP. The authors concluded that the association of ABP-120 with the cytoskeleton is regulated during cAMP signalling. Furthermore, these results indicate that ABP-120 is involved in cross-linking newly assembled actin filaments into the cytoskeleton during chemoattractant-stimulated pseudopod extension.

    Cytoskeletal features of the syncytial epidermis of the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta (1989)

    Notizen: A hallmark feature of parasitic platyhelminths is a cytoarchitecturally unusual syncytial epidermis composed of a peripheral layer of continuous cytoplasm (the ectocytoplasm) connected to underlying nucleated cell bodies by small cytoplasmic bridges. The helminth epidermis, or tegument, plays important roles in protection and nutrient acquisition; cestodes, in fact, completely lack a gastrointestinal tract and absorb all nutritive material through the tegument. Perhaps not surprisingly, the cestode tegument bears certain resemblances to the mucosal epithelium of the vertebrate small intestine, including the possession of a microvillous brush border upon the surface of the ectocytoplasm. In contrast to the intestinal epithelial cell, however, very little is known concerning the nature and organization of the cytoskeleton within the helminth epidermis. Therefore, a number of different microscopical preparative techniques were used to examine the tegument of the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta for the presence and distribution of microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. It was found that both actin-containing microfilaments and intermediate-sized filaments are present but are restricted to specific locations along the plasmalemmae of the ectocytoplasm. In contrast, microtubules are found throughout the tegument, and are concentrated in the supranuclear regions of the perikarya and in the cytoplasmic bridges interconnecting the perikarya and ectocytoplasm. Unlike brush borders of most other epithelia, the cestode epidermal brush border lacks a filamentous terminal web and is instead associated with microtubules. A network of fine filaments, 5-8 nm in diameter but distinct from actin-containing microfilaments, runs throughout the ectocytoplasm and appears to interlink tegumental vesicles. These fine filaments may represent the primary “skeletal” system responsible for maintaining the structure of the tegumental cytoplasm.

    Notizen: As an alternative to swimming through liquid medium by the coordinated bending activity of its two flagella, Chlamydomonas can exhibit whole cell gliding motility through the interaction of its flagellar surfaces with a solid substrate. The force transduction occurring at the flagellar surface can be visualized as the saltatory movements of polystyrene microspheres. Collectively, gliding motility and polystyrene microsphere movements are referred to as flagellar surface motility. The principal concanavalin A binding, surface-exposed glycoproteins of the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii flagellar surface are a pair of glycoproteins migrating with apparent molecular weight of 350 kDa. It has been hypothesized that these glycoproteins move within the plane of the flagellar membrane during the expression of flagellar surface motility. A novel mutant cell line of Chlamydomonas (designated L-23) that exhibits increased binding of concanavalin A to the flagellar surface has been utilized in order to restrict the mobility of the concanavalin A-binding flagellar glycoproteins. Under all conditions where the lateral mobility of the flagellar concanavalin A binding glycoproteins is restricted, the cells are unable to express whole cell gliding motility or polystyrene microsphere movements. Conversely, whenever cells can redistribute their concanavalin A binding glycoproteins in the plane of the flagellar membrane, they express flagellar surface motility. Since the 350 kDa glycoproteins are the major surface-exposed flagellar proteins, it is likely that most of the signal being followed using fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-concanavalin A is attributable to these high molecular weight glycoproteins. Therefore, it is likely that the 350 kDa glycoproteins are the ones that must move laterally in the plane of the flagellar membrane in order for the cell to express whole cell gliding motility and microsphere movements along the flagellar surface. This study represents one of the first demonstrations, in any cell type, that whole cell locomotion requires glycoprotein movement within the plane of the plasma membrane.

    Notizen: The cytoskeleton of Crithidia fasciculata consists of a corset of paralle microtubules enclosing the cell body and closely underlying the plasma membrane. Distinct sets of crosslinks appear to connect tubules to each other and to membrane. Our objective is to determine the composition of these crosslinks and to elucidate the basis of this spectacular example of membrane-microtubule interaction. We purified three proteins (designated COP-33, -41, and -61 by their subunit Mr), which were consistently abundant in highly purified cytoskeletons. All three bound strongly to microtubules in vitro, and the first two induced bundles through periodic crosslinking. Polyclonal antibodies against each have been used to try to localize these proteins in thin sections of cells or whole mounts of cytoskeletons. Antibodies to COP-41 bound sepcifically to glycosomes, organelles that encapsulate many glycolytic enzymes in these protozoa, and COP-41 has been identified as glyceraldehyde 3-P dehydrogenase.

    Notizen: Mammalian eggs and embryos contain an extensive detergent-resistant cytoskeletal network, including many elements which have been referred to as sheets in hamster eggs. In this study we examined the structure of the sheet-like components by using embedment-free sections and freeze-fracture electron microscopy and found that the sheets are composed of both filamentous and particulate components. In addition, exposure to a high salt extraction medium resulted in the disappearance of the sheets at the ultrastructural level. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the cell fractions revealed four stainable proteins solubilized by the high salt extraction with one of the proteins being greatly enriched. Because these cytoskeletal sheets undergo an extensive reorganization coincident with key events during early development they serve as internal markers for the establishment of polarity and subsequent differentiation of the first embryonic epithelium, the trophectoderm.

    Myosin regulation and calcium transients in fibroblast shape change, attachment, and patching (1989)

    Notizen: Following our study in Balb/c 3T3 cells and other cultured fibroblasts of the changes in myosin light chain phosphorylation associated with alterations in cell shape, attachment, and receptor patching, we have now determined the corresponding changes in cytoskeletal myosin distribution, and in the cellular calcium concentration, since this might, in part, mediate such responses.Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that myosin assembly into ordered forms such as actomyosin bundles and myosin sheath almost always correlated with previously shown high phosphorylation levels of myosin regulatory light chain, whereas diffuse distributions usually correlated with low or undetectable levels. An exception was observed in treatment to alter cellular cAMP levels when, in a biphasic response, assembly was correlated inversely with the phosphorylation states shown previously.Fluorescent indicators for intracellular calcium concentration, [Ca++]i, showed that myosin disassembly by trypsin or EGTA acting externally on the cells was preceded by a transient increase in [Ca++]i. For EGTA this was associated with transient recruitment of myosin into dorsal sheath structure as well as the transient enhancement of phosphorylation shown earlier. Blockage of EGTA-induced disassembly could be achieved by azide, which also caused an immediate increase in [Ca++]i and inhibited its subsequent decline. Trypsin-induced dephosphorylation did not appear to involve an eventual reduction of [Ca++]i. Therefore, in many but not all of the systems studied, correlated changes were observed in myosin assembly, [Ca++]i, and the myosin phosphorylation levels shown earlier.

    Developmental changes in the arrangement of cortical microtubules in stomatal cells of oat (Avena sativa L.) (1989)

    Notizen: Changes in microtubule organization were monitored in the stomatal complexes of Avena sativa using tubulin immunocytochemistry. Radial arrays of cortical microtubules, previously thought to be characteristic of guard cells, also appear in adjacent subsidiary cells early in development. The subsidiary cell arrays are evident even before guard cells form via division of precursor guard mother cells. Thus, before the stomatal pore opens between sister guard cells, each complex contains four similar microtubule arrays. As the pore opens, however, the subsidiary cell system is reorganized into a network of microtubules distributed along the length of the cell. A similar change is effected in the guard cells after the pore opens. Subsidiary cells and guard cells elongate during later stages of differentiation, and a thickened wall is deposited int he narrow midzone of the latter. At the same time, microtubules in both cells assume a more axial orientation. The results are discussed in terms of developmental symmetry and the control of microtubule organization and cell wall deposition.

    Notizen: The formation of lamellipodia in migrating cells involves dynamic processes that occur in a cyclic manner as the leading edge of a cell slowly advances. We used video-enhanced contrast microscopy (VEC) to monitor the motile behavior of cells to classify protrusions into the temporal stages of initial and established protrusions (Fisher et al.: Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton 11:235-247, 1988), and to monitor the fixation of cells. Multiple parameter fluorescence imaging methods (DeBiasio et al.: Journal of Cell Biology 105:1613-1622, 1987; Waggoner et al.: Methods in Cell Biology, Vol. 30, Part B, pp. 449-478, 1989) were then used to determine and to map accurately the distributions of actin, myosin and microtubules in specific types of protrusions. Initial protrustions exhibited no substructure as evidenced by VEC and actin was diffusely arranged, while myosin and microtubules were absent. Newly established protrusions contained diffuse actin as well as actin in microspikes. There was a delay in the appearance of myosin into established protrusions relative to the presence of actin. Microtubules were found in established protrusions after myosin was detected, and they were oriented parallel to the direction of migration. Actin and myosin were also localized in fibers transverse to the direction of migration at the base of initial and established protrusions. Image analysis was used to quantify the orientation of actin fibers relative to the leading edge of motile cells. The combined use of VEC, multiple parameter immunofluorescence, and image analysis should have a major impact on defining complex relationships within cells.

    Notizen: The cytoskeleton of the naked, biflagellate green alga Spermatozopsis similis Preisig & Melkonian was isolated by treatment of cells with Nonidet P-40 (0.1%) in lysis buffer (30 mM HEPES, 5 mM EGTA, 15 mM KCl, pH 7) and studied in detail by whole-mount electron microscopy. Isolated cytoskeletons retain the twisted shape of live cells and consist of the two axonemes, the basal apparatus with 4 microtubular and two fibrous roots, and 8-10 secondary cytoskeletal microtubules (SCMT's). The four microtubular flagellar roots differ in number of microtubules (two types with 2 or 5 microtubules, respectively), in their association with fibrous roots of the system I-type (two-stranded roots), in total length (two roots with an average of 4.5 μm and two roots with and average of 7.5 μm), and in length of individual root microtubules. Certain of the root microtubules and most of the SCMT's extend to the posterior end of the cell where they converge, terminate and are interconnected by a fibrous cap-like structure, the rhizosyndesmos. This novel structure consists of a network of 2 nm filaments that presumably lacks centrin as indicated by double immunofluorescence (anti-α-tubulin and anti-centrin) of isolated cytoskeletons. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of isolated, purified basal apparatuses of S. similis identifies among other proteins two isoforms of centrin and α- and β-tubulin as intrinsic components.

    Notizen: Cytoplasmic streaming and its response to azide and low temperature were examined by using high-resolution video-enhanced light microscopy in Setcreasea purpurea staminal hair cells of immature flowers. Particles and organelles examined moved along well-defined pathways, in repeated and unequal saltatory steps, at different rates and sometimes against the main direction of flow (bidirectionally) in both transvacuolar strand and peripheral cytoplasm. Particle movements were reversibly inhibited with azide. Low temperatures caused transvacuolar strands to shift or break. This cytoplasm accumulated in areas outside of the vacuole where spherosomes continued to saltate, but not along well-defined pathways. In the peripheral cytoplasm, however, the spherosomes continued to move normally, amyloplasts became swollen, and they plus the other organelles (except spherosomes) were stationary. Normal particle movements were obtained when chilled cells were rewarmed to 27°C for ca 15 min.

    Notizen: The generation of bending waves by microtubules in squid nerve axoplasm has been modelled using appropriately modified versions of computer programs developed previously for simulation of flagellar bending waves. The results confirm that a constant longitudinal force directed along the axis of the microtubule is sufficient to cause the generation of regular oscillations and propagated bending waves when the forward gliding movement of the microtubule is obstructed. No control mechanism is required to modulate the active force-generating system. In order to obtain bending waves similar to those observed experimentally, it was necessary to use a model for the force-generating system in which the active force decreases with increasing sliding velocity. If the elastic bending resistance of axoplasmic microtubules is similar to that of microtubules in sperm terminal filaments, the longitudinal force per unit length generated by the axoplasmic microtubules must be of the same order of magnitude as the force generated by dynein arms along the doublet microtubules of eukaryotic flagella.

    Notizen: The mechanism by which organelles are transported bidirectionally in axoplasm is still unknown; however, evidence of a key role for microtubules in many nonmammalian models has been established. We have observed common or shared tracks within the axoplasm of human nerves along which multiple organelles of varying size and shape are bidirectionally transported. Organelles traveling anterogradely and retrogradely were visualized by video-enhanced differential interference contrast optics and analyzed with the aid of computer-image-processing techniques.Speeds of translocating organelles were determined at eight to 16 translocation points along a path or “track.” Each translocation speed was plotted against its corresponding position on the track to develop a “speed/position diagram.” Regardless of mean organelle speed or direction of motion, organelles sharing a common track exhibited similar patterns of “speeding up” and “slowing down” relative to position along the track. Speed position data for organelles translocating the local axonal region of a common track showed no unique patterns (not different from a uniform distribution, p 〈 0.05). The unique speed/position patterns exhibited by common tracks were not necessarily related to the patterns of other tracks in the immediate vicinity (distance between tracks of 〈 0.50 μm). These findings suggest that (1) there are “common tracks” shared by organelles moving retrogradely and anterogradely; (2) both the organelles and the “track” associated with its translocation play a role in the resultant motion of that organelle; (3) the influence exerted by a common track on the motion of an organelle results in a pattern of speed changes related to position along the track.

    Notizen: Bundles of microtubules (MTs) are readily visualized in vivo by videomicroscopy in highly flattened reticulopodia of the foraminiferan protozoan Allogromia sp. strain NF. In this report we use videomicroscopy, immunocytochemistry, and high-voltage electron microscopy to characterize the dynamic changes that occur in this extensive MT cytoskeleton, and in the associated cytoplasmic transport, during induced withdrawal and subsequent reextension of reticulopodia. Within seconds after application of the withdrawal stimulus (seawater substitute made hypertonic with MgCl2) intracellular bidirectional transport along linear MT-containing fibrils ceases and is replaced by an inward, constant-velocity flow of cytoplasm along the fibrils. As withdrawal continues, most fibrils become wavy and coalesce to form phase-dense pools. These wavy fibrils and phase-dense pools contain a paracrystalline material and few if any MTs. Same-section correlative immunofluorescence and high-voltage electron microscopy reveal that the paracrystalline material contains tubulin. During recovery linear fibrils (MTs) rapidly extend from the phase-dense pools (paracrystals), which concurrently shrink in size, thus reestablishing normal network morphology and motility. We conclude that the MT cytoskeleton in Allogromia reticulopodia is transfonned during withdrawal into a tubulin-containing paracrystal, which serves as a temporary reservoir of MT protein and an initiation site for MT regrowth.

    Notizen: The relationship between centriole formation and DNA synthesis was investigated by examining the effect of taxol on the centriole cycle and the initiation of DNA synthesis in synchronized cells. The centriole cycle was monitored by electron microscopy of whole-mount preparations [Kuriyama and Borisy, J. Cell Biol., 1981, 91:814-821]. A short daughter centriole appeared in perpendicular orientation to each parent during late G1 or early S and elongated slowly during S to G2. Addition of 5-20 μg/ml taxol to a synchronous population of cells in S phase did not inhibit centriole elongation; rather, elongation was accelerated. In contrast, when taxol was added to M phase or early G1 cells, centriole duplication was completely inhibited. The taxol block was reversible since nucleation and elongation of centrioles resumed as soon as the drug was removed. Cells exposed to taxol progressed through the cell cycle and became blocked in mitosis, as indicated by an increase in the mitotic index, but eventually the mitotic arrest was overcome, resulting in formation of multinucleated cells. A peak in mitotic index was seen in the following generation, indicating that chromosomes duplicated in the presence of taxol. Incorporation of 3H-thymidine followed by autoradiography confirmed that DNA synthesis was initiated in the presence of taxol even though formation of daughter centrioles was inhibited. It seems, therefore, that centriole duplication is not a prerequisite for entry into S phase. Since DNA synthesis has already been demonstrated not to be necessary for centriole duplication, these two events, normally coordinated in time, appear to be independent of each other.

    Notizen: Intermediate filaments (IF) were found in close proximity to the plasma membrane in substrate attached baby hamster kidney cells (BHK-21) and chick embryo fibroblasts (CEF) as well as cells removed from their substrate in the absence of trypsin. However, in cells removed with trypsin, it appeared that IF had retracted away from the membrane. In cells with abundant extracellular matrix (ECM), colchicine induced massive cables of IF, which appeared to interact with specialized areas of the inner plasma membrane. In cells lysed to extract most microfilaments and cytoplasmic constituents, the intact IF network which remained was closely associated with the ECM. From these ultrastructural observations it was concluded that IF interact in some way with a “cell membrane complex” defined as comprising the plasma membrane and molecules attached to its inner and outer surfaces.In order to investigate the possibility that components of the membrane complex may co-isolate with IF, native intermediate filaments (NIF) were prepared. In addition to the structural subunits and other associated polypeptides, a ∼220 kd species which reacted specifically with antibodies directed against the ECM protein fibronectin (FN) was observed; 220 kd was still present after NIF were isolated under pH conditions where FN is more soluble, suggesting that its presence was not simply due to the coprecipitation of two insoluble proteins. Immunofluorescence and immunogold localization confirmed that FN is a component of the cell membrane complex with which IF appeared to interact.

    Structure and composition of the cytoskeleton of nucleated erythrocytes: III. Organization of the cytoskeleton of Bufo marinus erythrocytes as revealed by freeze-dried platinum-carbon replicas and immunofluorescence microscopy (1986)

    Notizen: Platinum-carbon (Pt-C) replicas of freeze-dried erythrocyte cytoskeletons of the toad, Bufo marinus, were prepared using a modified Balzers 300 system. Examination in stereo of replicas of the microtubule-containing marginal band revealed filaments projecting from the microtubule walls to form links between adjacent microtubules. These cross-bridging proteins may bundle the microtubules into the configuration of the marginal band (MB) and may also serve to stabilize the structure. The MB appears to have linkages to components of the surface-associated cytoskeleton (SAC). The SAC forms a continuous matrix that spreads across the upper and lower surfaces of the cell adjacent to the plasma membrane and extends around the outer perimeter of the MB. Thus, the SAC encapsulates the MB and the central nucleus. After lysis, the elements of the cytoskeleton remain in a configuration similar to that found in the whole cell. Spectrin (fodrin) and actin were identified by immunofluorescence in the region of the SAC. When labeled with antibodies specific for vimentin and synemin, a network of intermediate filaments can be detected in the region between the nucleus and the MB. These vimentin filaments are also enclosed within the SAC and appear in Pt-C replicas to emerge from the area of the nuclear envelope. As the filaments extend toward the periphery of the cell, they form attachments to the SAC. Attachments of intermediate filaments to both the nucleus and the SAC thus appear to anchor the nucleus in its central position within the cytoskeleton.

    Notizen: Reversal of meiotic arrest in crane-fly spermatocytes by U.V. irradiation of Colcemid-arrested cells or by rinsing Nocodazole-arrested cells in fresh buffer results in the induction of chromosome malorientation. Malorientations observed among Colcemid-recovering and Nocodazole-recovering spermatocytes at frequencies higher than normally observed in untreated cells included associations of sister kinetochores of half-bivalents with both spindle poles (amphitely), in contrast with associations of sisters with only one pole (syntely) as is usually found during the first meiotic division. In several cases, prior to anaphase onset, maloriented bivalents appeared unusually tilted with respect to the spindle axis, and during anaphase they gave rise to laggard half-bivalents that did not segregate during anaphase along with half-bivalents having proper syntelic orientation. The results parallel previous findings obtained during cold recovery, and the properties of the drugs used here suggest that their action on microtubules, although reversible, induces malorientation during recovery from meiotic arrest.

    Notizen: We investigated the involvement of kinetochore microtubules (kMTs) in mediating chromosome-to-pole connections in crane-fly (Nephrotoma suturalis and Nephrotoma ferruginea) spermatocytes. Two experimental treatments were used to yield spindles with reduced numbers of nonkinetochore microtubules (nkMTs). Short-term (10-15 min) exposure of spermatocytes to 2°C caused depolymerization of the majority of nkMTs, resulting in a kMT:(kMT + nkMT) ratio of 0.76. Long-term (24h) exposure to 2°C followed by recovery at 6°C resulted in a kMT:(kMT + nkMT) ratio of 0.55, the spindle having more nkMTs than a 2°C-treated spindle but fewer than an untreated spindle, in which the kMT:(kMT + nkMT) ratio was 0.27. The numbers and lengths of kMTs in 6°C-grown spindles were similar to those in untreated cells, suggesting that the overall inhibition of MT assembly at 6°C apparently did not affect the mechanism by which kMTs are formed. We observed most kMTs of early anaphase spindles to be long (〉3 μm), and many extended to the polar regions of the spindle. Thus, the crane-fly spindle appears not to be as atypical as it was previously suggested to be.

    Relationship between intermediate filaments and microfilaments in cultured fibroblasts: Evidence for common foci during cell spreading (1986)

    Notizen: Spreading and fully spread chick embryo fibroblasts (CEF) were examined by double-label fluorescence microscopy using the actin-specific probe rhodamine-phalloidin and an antibody directed against CEF intermediate filaments (IF). During midspreading, a striking relationship became discernible: statistical analysis showed that approximately half of the cell population exhibited one or more phase-dense, phalloidin-binding nodules that appeared to act as foci from which IF diverged. Coincidence between actin-containing structures and IF was not limited to these centers; IF could also frequently be seen running in close parallel arrays with stress fibers.Ultrastructural analysis confirmed the presence of non-membrane-bound out-pocketings along the length of stress fibers from which 10-nm IF diverged. These structures varied in size and shape, and displayed a dense, fine fibrillar appearance. IF and microfilaments (MF) were distinguished by size and by decoration of MF with myosin subfragment-1. Other IF-MF interactions were seen in cells of all stages: IF were observed to loop through stress fibers, most frequently at the cell margins. In colchicine-treated cells, IF became redistributed into cables that often ran parallel and appeared to merge with stress fibers. Cytochalasin D-treated CEF exhibited loose aggregates of actin-containing material that appeared to be associated with IF.These results suggest the possibility of an interaction between actin-containing structures and IF, particularly during cell spreading in cultured fibroblasts.

    Notizen: Dynamic changes in the spatial organizations of cytoplasmic fibrils (microfilament bundles) related to the contraction-relaxation cycle in thin-spread plasmodia of Physarum polycephalum were investigated by fluorescence microscopy, where NBD-phallacidin was used to stain the fibrils, combined with polarizing light microscopy.The fibrillar organization in the anterior region, which consists of a fanlike spreading plasmodial sheet, strikingly changed according to the phase of the cycle. In the early stage of the contraction, as the endoplasm began to stream backward, the fibrils developed into a number of slender and flabby fibrils emanating from the inside of the cell membrane and the nodes. They became thicker and more straightforward fibrils running parallel to each other at the middle stage, and finally formed a thick framework consisting of a “polygonal network” near the tip of the migrating front and a “parallel array” in the inner part. In the relaxation phase, as the endoplasm streamed forward, the fibrillar framework disintegrated gradually and finally disappeared almost completely, remaining only around the nodes in some cases.The fibrillar patterns in the posterior region, which consists of ramified strands, showed no conspicuous rhythmic change with alternation of the streaming direction.

    Notizen: The contractility of Physarum plasmodium was investigated using cell models that were prepared by treating thin-spread plasmodia with ice-cold 0.2% Triton X-100. Cell models obtained from the anterior regions of the thin-spread plasmodia in the contraction phase retained many birefringent cytoplasmic fibrils. The fibrils vigorously contracted on addition of ATP, inducing simultaneous contraction of the whole cell models. In contrast, cell models prepared from the anterior regions in the relaxation phase scarcely contained the birefringent fibrils and exhibited only weak contractility on addition of ATP. The posterior regions of the thinspread plasmodia, which were composed of ramified plasmodial strands, always retained many fibrils when treated with the Triton solution and showed intensive contraction on addition of ATP.SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the model was enriched for actin and myosin. About 40% of the actin was extracted from the plasmodium by the Triton treatment, while scarcely any myosin was extracted.Fragmin, a F-actin-fragmenting factor, caused the birefringent fibrils to diminish in the presence of Ca2+, but more than 30 minutes was required for their complete disappearance. The birefringent fibrils weakened by 30-minute fragmin treatment disappeared immediately on addition of ATP or AMP-PNP.

    Notizen: Treatment with 10 μm taxol disrupted mitotic and cytoplasmic arrays of microtubules (MT) in cultured cells of two higher plants, Vicia hajastana (vetch) and Zinnia elegans. When treated for 1, 24, and 48 h, cells in both cultures showed similar effects. After 1 h, multipolar arrays of MT were noted in prophase, large aster-like arrays of MT appeared in metaphase, and extra MT shared poles with otherwise normal-appearing metaphase and anaphase configurations. After 24 and 48 h, some phragmoplasts were multipartite or misplaced. In interphase cells, micronuclei and multinucleate cells were evidence of irregular mitosis and cytokinesis. Cytoplasmic MT in elongated cells were oriented parallel to, instead of at right angles to the long axis of the cell. Some interphase cells lost asymmetry while maintaining organized arrays of MT. Taxol appears to disrupt mitotic and cytoplasmic arrays of MT, seemingly overriding the mechanism(s) regulating MT polymerization and orientation.

    Notizen: Bidirectional organelle movements were observed in fresh and permeabilizedreactivated (0.02% saponin, 5 mM Mg++ ATP) walking leg axons of crayfish with video-enhanced contrast, differential interference contrast (AVEC-DIC) microscopy; and the cytoskeletal organization of those axons was studied with quickfreeze, deep-etch electron microscopy (QF,DE) to understand the structure of the microtubule (MT) domain and to determine the basic cytoskeletal structures necessary for organelle transport in vivo. Vesicles and mitochondria moved bidirectionally in the central parts of fresh or permeabilized-reactivated axons. Although the axoplasm of the fresh axon was composed of longitudinally oriented microtubules and granular materials in which membrane organelles were embedded, a network of fine strands existed in the core of the granular materials. Crossbridges between membrane organelles and microtubules were present. In the central part of reactivated axons, the cytoskeleton consisted of microtubules, highly anastomosing networks of fine strands (6.6 ± 1.4 nm in width) that crosslinked the microtubules with each other, and relatively short, straight crossbridges (25 ± 3.9 nm in length, 5.5 ± 2.1 nm in width) crosslinking membrane organelles with microtubules. It has been shown that a 270KD microtubule associated protein (MAP) could be a main component of crossbridges between MTs [Hirokawa, 1986]. Hence the dynamic conformational change of crossbridges between membrane organelles and microtubules could play an important role when membrane organelles are transported.

    Notizen: Living vegetative amoebae of NC-4H Dictyostelium discoideum were studied to determine if a variety of pteridines had any effect on the filopodia. We observed that production, elongation, and branching of these filopodia were stimulated by pteridines that are chemoattractants for cells of this strain. This stimulation occurs at chemotactically effective concentrations and is observed before motility is evident. A relationship between filopodia and chemoattractant signal processing is discussed.

    Notizen: Previous studies of the storage of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) have used an empirical approach to define “optimal” conditions. To date, no storage conditions have been described which satisfactorily preserve the chemotactic function of PMNs beyond 24 h. In an effort to define the precise nature of the storage lesion, we studied the chemotactic locomotion of freshly isolated PMNs and PMNs which had been suspended in citrate-phosphate-dextrose-adenine (CPD-Al) plasma and stored in PVC bags, at 20-22°C for 24 h. We used time-lapse video recording and computer image analysis to quantitate the motion of PMNs migrating under agarose. The positions of individual motile cells were traced at 1-min intervals for 5 min. The following parameters were used to quantitate migration: (1) speed (distance/min), (2)) persistence of locomotion index (velocity/speed), (3) orientation angle (the angle of the vector describing the next displacement of a cell relative lo a direct line toward the chemoattractant), and (4) chemotropic index (cosine of the orientation angle). After 24 h of storage, the following changes were observed: (1) fewer cells migrated, (2) (he speed of migrating cells was reduced by 25%, (3) the persistence of locomotion index decreased by 7%, which indicates that migrating cells made slightly more/wider turns, and (4) the chemotropic index was decreased by 30%, which indicates that migrating cells were less accurate in their orientation toward the chemoattractant. Apparently, the storage of PMNs selectively impairs the ability of some cells to orient accurately in a chemotactic gradient and changes the distribution of these locomotor parameters within the population.

    Notizen: At metaphase in crane-fly primary spermatocytes, the two sister kinetochores at the centromere of each homologue in a bivalent normally are adjacent and face the same pole; one homologue has all its kinetochore microtubules (kMTs) extending toward one pole and its partner has all its kMTs extending toward the opposite pole. In contrast, during recovery from exposure to 2°C, one or both homologues in many metaphase bivalents had bipolar malorientations: all kMTs of one kinetochore extended toward one pole and some or all those of its sister extended toward the other. Metaphase sister kinetochores that had most of their kMTs extending toward the same pole were adjacent, and those with most extending toward opposite poles were separated from each other. Distances between homologous centromeres were similar to those in properly oriented bivalents. Maloriented bivalents were tilted relative to the spindle axis, and analysis of living cells showed that tilted configurations were rare during prometaphase in untreated cells but frequently arose in cold-recovering cells as initial configurations, then persisted through metaphase. This was in contrast to unipolar configurations of bivalents (configurations suggesting orientation of both homologous centromeres toward the same pole), which always reoriented shortly after the configuration arose. We conclude that in cold-recovering cells, bipolar malorientations are more stable than unipolar malorientations, and the orientation process is affected such that bipolar malorientations arise in bivalents upon initial interaction with the spindle and persist through metaphase.

    Notizen: Isolated ciliary axonemes from pig trachea were exposed to increasing concentrations of purified Pseudomonas aeruginosa rhamnolipid. This is a defined ciliary system allowing observation of direct impairment of functional axonemes. Axonemal motility and ATPase activity were decreased in proportion to rhamnolipid concentrations. ATPase-associated proteins observed in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and dynein arms seen in ultrastructural cross sections progressively disappeared from axonemes with exposure to rhamnolipid. These four independent measures establish that the rhamnolipid removes the ATPase-containing outer dynein arms from the ciliary axoneme, thereby rendering the axoneme immotile.

    Notizen: Reticulomyxa is a large, multinucleated freshwater protozoan with striking intracellular transport. Cyloplasmic streaming and saltatory movements of individual organelles (at rates of up to 25 μm/sec) are observed within the naked cell body and the extensive reticulate peripheral network of fine cytoplasmic strands. As demonstrated by video-enhanced light microscopy, individual organelles move only when associated with cytoskeletal linear elements. The linear elements are composed of mixed colinear bundles of microtubules and actin filaments, which form the backbone of the reticulopodial network. The constant branching, sprouting, and fusion of network stands suggest unique membrane properties and an unusually dynamic cytoskeleton. The electrophoretic mobility of Reticulomyxa tubulins and the lack of crossreactivity with several antibodies known to react with many plant and animal tubulins suggest that they may differ from other tubulins more widely than might be expected. Reticulomyxa's large size, the rapidity and pervasiveness of the two forms of transport, and the simple and ordered cytoskeleton make the organism well suited for future studies on the mechanisms of intracellular transport.

    Notizen: In this report, we describe an in vitro system for analyzing microtubule-based movements in supernatants of sea urchin egg and embryo homogenates. Using video enhanced DIC microscopy, we have observed bidirectional saltatory particle movements on native taxol-stabilized microtubules assembled in low speed supernatants of Lytechinus egg homogenates, and gliding of these microtubules across a glass surface. A high speed supernatant of soluble proteins, depleted of organelles, microtubules, and their associated proteins supports the gliding of exogenous microtubules and translocation of polystyrene beads along these microtubules. The direction of microtubule gliding has been determined directly by observation of the gliding of flagellar axonemes in which the (+) and (-) ends could be distinguished by biased polar growth of microtubules off the ends. Microtubule gliding is toward the (-) end of the microtubule, is ATP sensitive, and inhibited only by high concentrations of vanadate. These characteristics suggest that the transport complex responsible for microtubule gliding in S2 is kinesin-like. The implications of these molecular interactions for mitosis and other motile events are discussed.

    Decoration of microtubules by fluorescently labeled microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) does not interfere with their spatial organization and progress through mitosis in living fibroblasts (1986)

    Notizen: Microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) derivatized with iodoacetamidotetramethylrhodamine or with iodoacetamidofluorescein binds to microtubules after injection into living interphase cells [Scherson et al, 1984]. The binding of derivatized MAP2 stabilized microtubules in vitro; it was therefore important to check if the binding of MAP2 in vivo perturbed the dynamics and organization of the microtubule network. We have addressed these questions by studying the effect of the injection of derivatized MAP2 on mitosis in PtK 1 cells and on the recovery of the microtubule network from low temperature incubation in interphase cells. We found that the presence of derivatized MAP2 did not change the duration of any mitotic stage and that the injected cell normally completed mitosis. We subsequently showed that the injected MAP2 bound to the microtubules within 5 minutes after injection and remained bound throughout the course of mitosis. The reorganization of the microtubule network upon cooling and rewarming was studied in the cytoplasm of human foreskin fibroblasts (356 cells). During the recovery, the distribution of the fluorescent MAP2 in living cells was identical with the microtubule pattern visualized by immunofluorescence in lysed and fixed cells.In these experiments, the fluorescent MAP2 bound to microtubules can be considered as a nonperturbing reporter of the microtubule network. This result is discussed in terms of the role of MAPs in the dynamics and organization of microtubules in living cells.

    Notizen: When detergent-extracted cell models of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were left in the presence of 1 mM Mg-ATP for more than 30 minutes flagellar axonemes tended to become frayed into fine bundles of microtubules. Under such conditions, bundles made up of a pair of outer-doublet microtubules displayed oscillatory bending movements of low (〈 2 Hz) frequencies. The two doublet microtubules underwent association-dissociation cycles coupled with gross bending movement. A model is presented to explain this phenomenon by unidirectional sliding interaction between the two microtubules.

    Notizen: In a preceding study [Blum, J.J., and Reed, M.C. (1985): Cell Motil. 5:507-527], factors responsible for the shape and velocity of the leading edge of the radiolabeled organelle profile were analyzed, but processes that might influence the shape of the plateau-like region behind the advancing wave were ignored. It is now shown that deposition of material from the fast transport system into membrane-associated structures, degradation of such deposited material and its return to the soma by the retrograde transport system, or leakage of radiolabeled material from the axon can account for the shape of the plateau. Furthermore, these processes are compatible with the maintenance of such structural inhomogeneities as the nodes of Ranvier.

    Notizen: Axial views of depolarization- and hyperpolarization-dependent activation of the frontal cirri of Stylonychia were cinematically recorded at high rate (250 frames/s) under voltage-clamp. Images of a cirrus performing the cycle were processed by using computer assistance. In responding to the polarity and amplitude of the voltage signal, a cirrus inclines proximally with a particular angle and orientation. The ciliary cycle-always counterclockwise-is superimposing upon steady inclination. Correction for inclination allowed the assessment of the directional change rate and, after inclusion of the amplitude data, the determination of the ciliary angular velocity during the cycle. The method serves to isolate a new ciliary parameter: inclination, and to register precisely parameters of the cycle which may be meaningful for the understanding of the sliding mechanism.

    Notizen: Flagellar motility of Triton models of sea urchin spermatozoa was reactivated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and a protein factor, termed motility activator, both of which were prepared from the detergent-extract of sea urchin spermatozoa. It was shown that phosphorylation of the motility activator by the protein kinase is necessary for the reactivation of flagellar motility [Ishiguro et al, J. Cell Biol. 92:777-782, 1982; Murofushi et al, in “Biological Functions of Microtubules and Related Structures,” Academic Press, 1982]. Reactivating factor was also detected in a KCI-extract of the axoneme fraction devoid of the detergent-extractable materials. The activity of this factor was also cyclic AMP- and protein kinase-dependent. Furthermore, when freshly prepared Triton models were treated with phosphoprotein phosphatase prepared from bovine cardiac muscle, the flagellar motility was drastically suppressed. This inhibition of the motility was partially recovered by the addition of cyclic AMP and protein kinase to the phosphatase-treated models.

    Patterns of flagellar wave propagation in Crithidia oncopelti at increased viscosities (1986)

    Notizen: In its normal culturing environment, the trypanosomid flagellate Crithidia oncopelti propagates basally-directed planar waves, but may under certain conditions exhibit base-to-tip wave propagation in what is regarded as an avoidance response. The beat frequency and wave shape in both modes of beating are dependent on the viscosity of the swimming medium; viscosity may also influence the direction of wave propagation. If Crithidia experience a sudden increase in viscosity, there is a marked increase in the proportion of the population that is seen to exhibit wave propagation from base to tip; this proportion gradually decreases with time until the whole sample has reverted to “normal” beating. In a single organism, the resumption of normal beating is not accomplished in a single transition but by a series of switches between the forward and reverse modes. The interval of time between successive switches appears to be random, while the length of time spent in base-to-tip wave propagation gradually decreases. Despite the randomness of the switching process, its rate when averaged over successive time intervals is found to be constant at a particular viscosity and also dependent on it. The precise manner by which this organism is able to control its direction of wave propagation is unclear. However, the switching behavior it exhibits during the period of adaptation to an increased mechanical loading of the flagellum may reflect a process that characterizes a facet of this controlling mechanism.

    Notizen: We present a model of cell motility based on emigration of neural crest cells into the neural tube lumen under in vitro conditions (10% fetal calf serum or YIGSR) that inhibit their normal emigration from the base of the neuroepithelium into surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). Ultrastructural observations reveal that cells lining the lumen are joined by zonulae adherentes (ZA), which are points of strong intercellular attachment, and thereby serve as markers for fixed regions of plasmalemma and cortical actin. Three major observations of the relationship of cells to the ZA support the “fixed cortex” model of mesenchymal cell migration. First, cells extend apical cel processes past the ZA into the lumen. To do this, they must make new apical plasmalemma and actin corrtex that the endoplasm slides into. Second, elongated cells are observed in the lumen that are still attached via ZA to the neuroepithelium. This indicates that all of the endoplasm finally slides past the ZA. Third, numerous cytoplasmic pieces, often attached to each other and to the neuroepithelium via ZA, are found at the site where cells appear to have detached from the epithelium after entering the lumen. Since the ZA is fixed in location, the endoplasm must have slid past it into newly manufactured anterior cortex and plasmalemma, with the trailing end of the cell finally snapping off. The “fixed cortex” theory of cell migration agrees with existing data in that it predicts the polarized insertion of new plasmalemma and actin at the leading end of the cell, but it differs significantly from existing theories of mesenchymal cell migration in that it states that the cell surface remains firmly attached to the substratum while the myosin-rich endoplasm slides past it.

    Notizen: A microtubule associated protein from brain tissue (MAP 1C), has been found to possess many properties in common with ciliary and flagellar dyneins (Paschal et al.: J. Cell Biol. 105:1273-1282, 1987). However, this protein, now designated as cytoplasmic dynein, exhibited several properties which distinguish it from axonemal forms of the enzyme. We have investigated these characteristics further in a study of cytoplasmic dyneins from non-neuronal tissues. Rat liver and testis in particular were found to contain high levels of cytoplasmic dynein. The yield of dynein from testis was over 70 μg/g of tissue, making this the best source of cytoplasmic dynein of all tissues so far examined. The characterization of dynein from these sources has confirmed and extended our previous observations concerning the unique properties of cytoplasmic dynein. Activation of liver and testis dynein occured at low (〈1 mg/ml) tubulin concentration. Polypeptides identified as subunits of brain cytoplasmic dynein (74, 59, 57, 55, and 53 kDa) were present in liver and testis preparations. In addition, polypeptides at 150 and 45 kDa were found to copurify with the non-neuronal dyneins. The liver and testis enzyme hydrolyzed pyrimidine nucleotides at rates up to 12.5 times faster than ATP, though the relative affinity of cytoplasmic dynein for CTP was much lower (Km = 1.0 mM) than that for ATP. The properties of the testis enzyme were consistent with its identification as a cytoplasmic dynein rather than a sperm axonemal precursor. These data indicate that cytoplasmic dyneins may be widespread in distribution and that they share certain biochemical properties unique from those of axonemal dyneins. These characteristics are consistent with the proposal that cytoplasmic dynein plays a universal role in retrograde organelle motility.

(Wright et al.: Journal of Cell Biology 101:1903-1912.; Salisbury et al.: Journal of Cell Biology 107:635-642; Huang et al.: Journal of Cell Biology 107:121-131). In order to explore the cellular function of the NBBC we used antiserum directed against centrin to examine a number of mutants known to be defective for basal body assembly and/or localization. Of three variable flagella-number mutants examined, one, vfl-2, is dramatically defective with respect to the NBBC in that (1) the union between basal bodies and nucleus is very labile, (2) there is no detectible centrin in the NBBC region, and (3) total cellular centrin levels are reduced 75-80% relative to wild type. The existence of these defects in a mutant incapable of maintaining normal flagellar number supports the view that the NBBC plays an important role in determining proper basal body localization and/or segregation. In contrast to vfl-2, the mutants vfl-1, vfl-3, uni-1, and bald-2 contain approximately normal levels of centrin and possess stable NBBCs. The observation of NBBCs in the mutant bald-2, which lacks all but very rudimentary basal bodies, indicates that the assembly of the NBBC does not require fully formed basal bodies and that such assembly may not require basal bodies at all. Finally, the possibility that the NBBC is required for induction of gene expression following deflagellation was tested by examining vfl-2 for such induction. Results indicate that the connector does not play a necessary role in the induction process.
