The reaction pathway of membrane-bound rat liver mitochondrial monoamine oxidase.

ABSTRACT: 1. A preparation of a partly purified mitochondrial outer-membrane fraction suitable for kinetic investigations of monoamine oxidase is described. 2. An apparatus suitable for varying the O(2) concentration in a spectrophotometer cuvette is described. 3. The reaction catalysed by the membrane-bound enzyme is shown to proceed by a double-displacement (Ping Pong) mechanism, and a formal mechanism is proposed. 4. KCN, NaN(3), benzyl cyanide and 4-cyanophenol are shown to be reversible inhibitors of the enzyme. 5. The non-linear reciprocal plot obtained with impure preparations of benzylamine, which is typical of high substrate inhibition, is shown to be due to aldehyde contamination of the substrate.

Rat liver mitochondrial monoamine oxidase. A change in the reaction mechanism on solubilization.

Project description:1. The kinetics of benzylamine oxidation by a soluble preparation of rat liver mitochondrial monoamine oxidase were investigated and were shown to conform to adouble-displacement (or Ping Pong) mechanism. 2. The pathway differs in detail from that followed by other amine oxidases, including the membrane-bound enzyme in rat liver mitochondrial outer membranes. 3. It is suggested taht the conformation of the protein in the soluble state differs from that in the membrane-bound state. 4. The full rate equations for this mechanism have been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50039 (5pages) at the British Library (lending Division) (formely the National Lending Library for Science and Technology), Boston Spa, Yorks, LS237BQ, U.K.. from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem.

Molecular and mechanistic properties of the membrane-bound mitochondrial monoamine oxidases.

Project description:The past decade has brought major advances in our knowledge of the structures and mechanisms of MAO A and MAO B, which are pharmacological targets for specific inhibitors. In both enzymes, crystallographic and biochemical data show their respective C-terminal transmembrane helices anchor the enzymes to the outer mitochondrial membrane. Pulsed EPR data show both enzymes are dimeric in their membrane-bound forms with agreement between distances measured in their crystalline forms. Distances measured between active site-directed spin-labels in membrane preparations show excellent agreement with those estimated from crystallographic data. Our knowledge of requirements for development of specific reversible MAO B inhibitors is in a fairly mature status. Less is known regarding the structural requirements for highly specific reversible MAO A inhibitors. In spite of their 70% level of sequence identity and similarities of C(alpha) folds, the two enzymes exhibit significant functional and structural differences that can be exploited in the ultimate goal of the development of highly specific inhibitors. This review summarizes the current structural and mechanistic information available that can be utilized in the development of future highly specific neuroprotectants and cardioprotectants.

A kinetic evaluation of monoamine oxidase activity in rat liver mitochondrial outer membranes.

Project description:1. A preparation of mitochondrial outer membranes from rat liver can be shown to contain two kinetically distinct monoamine oxidase activities. These activities are distinguishable by their different sensitivities to the irreversible inhibitor clorgyline, and by the effect of the reversible inhibitors benzyl cyanide and 4-cyanophenol. 2. The substrate specificities of the preparation and the two enzyme species have been elucidated.

The vectorial orientation of human monoamine oxidase in the mitochondrial outer membrane.

Project description:1. The localization of monoamine oxidase in the mitochondrial outer membrane was studied in preparations of human liver mitochondrial and brain-cortex non-synaptosomal and synaptosomal mitochondria. 2. Immunochemical accessibility in iso-osmotic and hypo-osmotic mitochondrial preparations was used to localize the enzyme. 3. It was shown that the immunochemically accessible tyramine-oxidizing activity was distributed approximately equally on both surfaces of the membrane in human liver and brain-cortex non-synaptosomal mitochondria. However, the immunochemically accessible beta-phenethylamine-oxidizing activity was situated predominantly on the outer surface, and the immunochemically accessible 5-hydroxytryptamine-oxidizing activity was situated predominantly on the inner surface of the mitochondrial outer membrane in liver and brain-cortex non-synaptosomal mitochondrial preparations. 4. Considerable variation in the distribution of the enzyme in preparations of synaptosomal mitochondria was seen. 5. The simplest model consistent with our observations is that, in liver and brain-cortex non-synaptosomal mitochondria, the tyramine-oxidizing activity is distributed on both sides of the mitochondrial outer membrane, the beta-phenethylamine-oxidizing activity is located on the outer surface of the outer membrane and the 5-hydroxytryptamine-oxidizing activity is located on the inner surface of the mitochondria outer membrane.

Monoclonal antibodies to monoamine oxidase B and another mitochondrial protein from human liver.

Project description:A monoclonal antibody has been generated to human liver monoamine oxidase (MAO) B by fusion of mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a mouse immunized with a mixture of semi-purified MAO A and MAO B. The antibody, 3F12/G10, an immunoglobulin G1, reacts with its antigen in cryostat sections of human liver, showing an intracellular particulate distribution as demonstrated by immunoperoxidase staining. The antibody indirectly precipitates [3H]pargyline-labelled human MAO B both from liver and platelet extracts but fails to precipitate MAO A from liver extracts. The antibody does not recognise rat liver MAO B, showing that the determinant is not universally expressed on MAO B. The antibody has no effect on the catalytic activity of MAO B. Other monoclonal antibodies were generated but they are directed to a protein with a subunit Mr of 54 000, a contaminant of the MAO preparation. One of these antibodies, A8/C2, an IgG2a, reacts with the same protein in both rat and human liver extracts.

Purification and immunochemical characterization of monoamine oxidase from rat and human liver.

Project description:1. Monoamine oxidase from rat and human liver was purified to homogeneity by the criterion of polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. The enzyme activity was extracted from mitochondrial preparations by Triton X-100. The enzyme was purified by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation followed by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, Sepharose 6B, spheroidal hydroxyapatite, and finally chromatography on diazo-coupled tyramine-Sepharose. 3. Distinct differences occur in the chromatographic behaviour of the two enzymes on both DEAE-cellulose and spheroidal hydroxyapatite. 4. It is unlikely that the purification of the enzymes on tyramine-Sepharose is due to affinity chromatography and reasons for this are discussed. 5. The purified enzymes did not oxidize-5-hydroxytryptamine and the relative activities of the enzymes with benzylamine were increased approx. 1.25-fold compared with the enzyme activities of mitochondrial preparations. 6. Immunotitration of enzyme activity in extracts of mitochondrial preparations from rat liver was carried out with 5-hydroxytryptamine, tyramine and benzylamine. The enzyme activities were completely immunoprecipitated by the same volume of antiserum. Similar results were obtained with the antiserum to the enzyme from human liver.

Free-radical-mediated fragmentation of monoamine oxidase in the mitochondrial membrane. Roles for lipid radicals.

Project description:A flux of hydroxyl radicals generated by gamma-irradiation can fragment monoamine oxidase in the membrane of submitochondrial particles. This fragmentation can be inhibited by mannitol and in addition is more extensive in monoamine oxidase preparations that have been depleted of lipid. This latter observation is consistent with the higher yields of fragmentation induced by hydroxyl radicals in soluble proteins in the absence of added lipids. In the absence of oxygen, gamma-irradiation of submitochondrial particles leads to cross-linking reactions. A flux of hydroperoxyl radicals also causes fragmentation, whereas one of superoxide is virtually inactive in this respect. The irradiation of submitochondrial particles leads in addition to the accumulation of products of lipid peroxidation. When these irradiated preparations are exposed to ferrous or cupric salts a further fragmentation of monoamine oxidase ensues, especially at acid pH. These transition-metal-catalysed reactions do not occur with irradiated preparations depleted of lipid, and the post-irradiation protein modifications are concomitant with further lipid peroxidation. The data indicate roles for lipid radicals in both fragmentation and cross-linking reactions of proteins in biological membranes. These reactions may have an important bearing on control of protein activity and of protein turnover in membranes.

The nature of the electrophoretically separable multiple forms of rat liver monoamine oxidase.

Project description:1. Treatment of a partly purified preparation of rat liver monoamine oxidase with the chaotropic agent sodium perchlorate caused the enzyme to migrate as a single band of activity of polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, whereas the untreated enzyme separated into a number of bands. 2. Treatment with the chaotropic agent caused no loss of enzyme activity towards benzylamine, dopamine or tyramine. 3. The activities of the untreated preparation towards different substrates were inhibited to different extents by heat treatment and by some inhibitors. No such differences could be detected after the enzyme preparation had been treated with sodium perchlorate. 4. Lipid material, which could be separated by gel filtration, was liberated from the enzyme preparation by sodium perchlorate treatment. 5. The molecular weight of the treated enzyme was found to be 380000+/-38000. 6. Perchlorate treatment altered the solubility of the enzyme. 7. A continuous assay method for monoamine oxidase is described.

The influence of respiratory state on monoamine oxidase activity in rat liver mitochondria.

Project description:Changes in the respiratory state of rat liver mitochondria caused significant changes (up to 10-fold) in the rates of oxidative deamination of tyramine, indicating interactions between the inner coupling membrane and the monoamine oxidase sites in the outer membrane, and suggesting the possibility that monoamine oxidase is regulated by the thermodynamic state of the mitochondria.
