Expression and functional analysis of CYP2D6.24, CYP2D6.26, CYP2D6.27, and CYP2D7 isozymes.

ABSTRACT: The objectives of this study were to compare the drug-metabolizing activity of human CYP2D6.24 (I297L), CYP2D6.26 (I369T), and CYP2D6.27 (E410K) allelic isoforms with wild-type CYP2D6.1 and to express the CYP2D7 protein derived from an indel polymorphism (CYP2D7 138delT) and investigate its possible codeine O-demethylase activity. Successful creation of individual cDNAs corresponding to CYP2D6*24 (2853 A>C), CYP2D6*26 (3277 T>C), and CYP2D6*27 (3853 G>A) allelic variants and CYP2D7 was achieved via molecular cloning. The corresponding proteins, CYP2D6.24, CYP2D6.26, CYP2D6.27, and CYP2D7, were expressed in insect cells by using a baculovirus-mediated expression system. All CYP2D proteins showed the empirical carbon monoxide difference spectra. We were surprised to find that the CYP2D7 protein was detected mainly in mitochondrial fractions, whereas all CYP2D6 allelic isoforms were present in the microsomal fraction. Furthermore, CYP2D7 did not produce any morphine from codeine. In contrast, CYP2D6.24, CYP2D6.26, and CYP2D6.27 allelic isoforms all showed active drug-metabolizing activities toward both codeine and dextromethorphan O-demethylation. Whereas CYP2D6.24 exhibited the highest intrinsic clearance in dextromethorphan O-demethylation (approximately 6-fold higher than that by CYP2D6.1), it had the lowest enzyme efficiency in codeine O-demethylation (approximately 50% lower than that by CYP2D6.1). Overall, the enzymatic consequences of CYP2D6 allelic isozymes are substrate dependent. These data would help preclinical and clinical assessments of the metabolic elimination of drugs that are mediated by human CYP2D enzyme.

Functional genomic analysis of three nitrogenase isozymes in the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris

Project description:To address the question of how photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris differentially regulates gene expression of three nitrogenase isozymes (Mo, V, and Fe nitrogenases), we constructed Mo strain (Mo nitrogenase only strain), V strain (V nitrogenase only strain), and Fe strain (Fe nitrogenase only strain), and analyzed the whole genome transcriptome profiles of each mutant and wild-type cells grown under nitrogen-fixing conditions. RNA was isolated from various Rhodopseudomonas palustris strains that were grown to the mid-logarithmic phase of growth. Fluorescently labeled cDNA was prepared by direct incorporation of either Cy3-dCTP or Cy5-dCTP during a first-strand reverse transcription reaction. The hybridization mixtures containing the two labeled cDNA samples to be compared were applied to microarray slides that had been covered with Lifterslips (Erie Scientific Company, Portsmouth, NH). The slides were assembled with hybridization chambers (Corning, Corning, NY) and submerged in a 65ÂºC water bath. After 14-16 h of hybridization, the slides were washed and scanned with a ScanArray 4000XL scanner (PerkinElmer, Boston, MA). Images (Cy3 and Cy5) were captured as TIFF files and were analyzed with the image processing software ImaGene version 5.6 (BioDiscovery, Inc., El Segundo, CA). The software package lcDNA was used for data normalization and assessment of the statistical confidence intervals of gene expression. Duplicate calibration experiments and three comparative experiments using RNA from three separately grown cultures (three biological replicates) with duplicate slides for each (10 slides in total) were used to generate each data set.

Functional genomic analysis of three nitrogenase isozymes in the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris.

Project description:The photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris is one of just a few prokaryotes described so far that has vnf and anf genes for alternative vanadium cofactor (V) and iron cofactor (Fe) nitrogenases in addition to nif genes for a molybdenum cofactor (Mo) nitrogenase. Transcriptome data indicated that the 32 genes in the nif gene cluster, but not the anf or vnf genes, were induced in wild-type and Mo nitrogenase-expressing strains grown under nitrogen-fixing conditions in Mo-containing medium. Strains that were unable to express a functional Mo nitrogenase due to mutations in Mo nitrogenase structural genes synthesized functional V and Fe nitrogenases and expressed vnf and anf genes in nitrogen-fixing growth media that contained Mo and V at concentrations far in excess of those that repress alternative nitrogenase gene expression in other bacteria. Thus, not only does R. palustris have multiple enzymatic options for nitrogen fixation, but in contrast to reports on other nitrogen-fixing bacteria, the expression of its alternative nitrogenases is not repressed by transition metals. Between 95 and 295 genes that are not directly associated with nitrogenase synthesis and assembly were induced under nitrogen-fixing conditions, depending on which nitrogenase was being used by R. palustris. Genes for nitrogen acquisition were expressed at particularly high levels during alternative nitrogenase-dependent growth. This suggests that alternative nitrogenase-expressing cells are relatively starved for nitrogen and raises the possibility that fixed nitrogen availability may be the primary signal that controls the synthesis of the V and Fe nitrogenases.

Differential regulation of gene expression by protein kinase C isozymes as determined by genome-wide expression analysis.

Project description:Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes are key signal transducers involved in normal physiology and disease and have been widely implicated in cancer progression. Despite our extensive knowledge of the signaling pathways regulated by PKC isozymes and their effectors, there is essentially no information on how individual members of the PKC family regulate gene transcription. Here, we report the first PKC isozyme-specific analysis of global gene expression by microarray using RNAi depletion of diacylglycerol/phorbol ester-regulated PKCs. A thorough analysis of this microarray data revealed unique patterns of gene expression controlled by PKCα, PKCδ, and PKCε, which are remarkably different in cells growing in serum or in response to phorbol ester stimulation. PKCδ is the most relevant isoform in controlling the induction of genes by phorbol ester stimulation, whereas PKCε predominantly regulates gene expression in serum. We also established that two PKCδ-regulated genes, FOSL1 and BCL2A1, mediate the apoptotic effect of phorbol esters or the chemotherapeutic agent etoposide in prostate cancer cells. Our studies offer a unique opportunity for establishing novel transcriptional effectors for PKC isozymes and may have significant functional and therapeutic implications.

Structural and functional analysis of two glutamate racemase isozymes from Bacillus anthracis and implications for inhibitor design.

Project description:Glutamate racemase (RacE) is responsible for converting l-glutamate to d-glutamate, which is an essential component of peptidoglycan biosynthesis, and the primary constituent of the poly-gamma-d-glutamate capsule of the pathogen Bacillus anthracis. RacE enzymes are essential for bacterial growth and lack a human homolog, making them attractive targets for the design and development of antibacterial therapeutics. We have cloned, expressed and purified the two glutamate racemase isozymes, RacE1 and RacE2, from the B. anthracis genome. Through a series of steady-state kinetic studies, and based upon the ability of both RacE1 and RacE2 to catalyze the rapid formation of d-glutamate, we have determined that RacE1 and RacE2 are bona fide isozymes. The X-ray structures of B. anthracis RacE1 and RacE2, in complex with d-glutamate, were determined to resolutions of 1.75 A and 2.0 A. Both enzymes are dimers with monomers arranged in a "tail-to-tail" orientation, similar to the B. subtilis RacE structure, but differing substantially from the Aquifex pyrophilus RacE structure. The differences in quaternary structures produce differences in the active sites of racemases among the various species, which has important implications for structure-based, inhibitor design efforts within this class of enzymes. We found a Val to Ala variance at the entrance of the active site between RacE1 and RacE2, which results in the active site entrance being less sterically hindered for RacE1. Using a series of inhibitors, we show that this variance results in differences in the inhibitory activity against the two isozymes and suggest a strategy for structure-based inhibitor design to obtain broad-spectrum inhibitors for glutamate racemases.

Catalytic and functional aspects of different isozymes of glycolate oxidase in rice.

Project description:BackgroundGlycolate oxidase (GLO) is a key enzyme for photorespiration in plants. There are four GLO genes encoding and forming different isozymes in rice, but their functional differences are not well understood. In this study, enzymatic and physiological characteristics of the GLO isozymes were comparatively analyzed.ResultsWhen expressed heterologously in yeast, GLO1, GLO4 and GLO1 + 4 showed the highest activities and lowest K m for glycolate as substrate, whereas GLO3 displayed high activities and affinities for both glycolate and L-lactate, and GLO5 was catalytically inactive with all substrates tested. To further reveal the physiological role of each GLO isozyme in plants, various GLO genetically modified rice lines were generated and functionally analyzed. GLO activity was significantly increased both in GLO1 and GLO4 overexpression lines. Nevertheless, when either GLO1 or GLO4 was knocked out, the activity was suppressed much more significantly in GLO1 knockout lines than in GLO4 knockout lines, and both knockout mutants exhibited obvious dwarfism phenotypes. Among GLO3 and GLO5 overexpression lines and RNAi lines, only GLO3 overexpression lines showed significantly increased L-lactate-oxidizing activity but no other noticeable phenotype changes.ConclusionsThese results indicate that rice GLO isozymes have distinct enzymatic characteristics, and they may have different physiological functions in rice.

Distinct expression and localization of diacylglycerol kinase isozymes in rat retina.

Project description:Recent studies have revealed that phosphoinositide (PI) signaling molecules are expressed in mammalian retinas, suggesting their importance in its signal transduction. We previously showed that diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) isozymes are expressed in distinct patterns in rat retina at the mRNA level. However, little is known about the nature and morphological aspects of DGKs in the retina. For this study, we performed immunohistochemical analyses to investigate in the retina the expression and localization of DGK isozymes at the protein level. Here, we show that both DGKβ and DGKι localize in the outer plexiform layer, within which photoreceptor cells make contact with bipolar and horizontal cells. These isozymes exhibit distinct subcellular localization patterns: DGKι localizes to the synaptic area of bipolar cells in a punctate manner, whereas DGKβ distributes diffusely in the subsynaptic and dendritic regions of bipolar and horizontal cells. However, punctate labeling for DGKε is evident in the outer limiting membrane. DGKζ and DGKα localize predominantly to the nucleus of ganglion cells. These findings show distinct expression and localization of DGK isozymes in the retina, suggesting a different role of each isozyme.

Characterization of Arabidopsis FPS isozymes and FPS gene expression analysis provide insight into the biosynthesis of isoprenoid precursors in seeds.

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana contains two genes encoding farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase (FPS), the prenyl diphoshate synthase that catalyzes the synthesis of FPP from isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). In this study, we provide evidence that the two Arabidopsis short FPS isozymes FPS1S and FPS2 localize to the cytosol. Both enzymes were expressed in E. coli, purified and biochemically characterized. Despite FPS1S and FPS2 share more than 90% amino acid sequence identity, FPS2 was found to be more efficient as a catalyst, more sensitive to the inhibitory effect of NaCl, and more resistant to thermal inactivation than FPS1S. Homology modelling for FPS1S and FPS2 and analysis of the amino acid differences between the two enzymes revealed an increase in surface polarity and a greater capacity to form surface salt bridges of FPS2 compared to FPS1S. These factors most likely account for the enhanced thermostability of FPS2. Expression analysis of FPS::GUS genes in seeds showed that FPS1 and FPS2 display complementary patterns of expression particularly at late stages of seed development, which suggests that Arabidopsis seeds have two spatially segregated sources of FPP. Functional complementation studies of the Arabidopsis fps2 knockout mutant seed phenotypes demonstrated that under normal conditions FPS1S and FPS2 are functionally interchangeable. A putative role for FPS2 in maintaining seed germination capacity under adverse environmental conditions is discussed.

Expression of aromatase and two isozymes of 5?-reductase in the developing green anole forebrain.

Project description:Neural steroids, as well as the enzymes that produce these hormones, are important for sexual differentiation of the brain during development. Aromatase converts testosterone into oestradiol. 5?-reductase converts testosterone to 5?-dihydrotestosterone and occurs in two isozymes: type 1 (5?R1) and type 2 (5?R2). Each of these enzymes is present in the developing brain in many species, although no work has been carried out examining the expression of all three enzymes in non-avian reptiles with genetic sex determination. In the present study, we evaluated mRNA expression of neural aromatase, 5?R1 and 5?R2, on the day of hatching and at day 50 in one such lizard, the green anole. We describe the distribution of these enzymes throughout the brain and the quantification of mRNA expression in three regions that control adult sexual behaviours: the preoptic area (POA) and ventromedial amygdala (AMY), which are involved in male displays, as well as the ventromedial hypothalamus, which regulates female receptivity. Younger animals had a greater number (POA) and density (AMY) of 5?R1 mRNA expressing cells. We detected no effects of sex or age on aromatase or 5?R2. In comparison with data from adults, the present results support the idea that the green anole forebrain has not completely differentiated by 50 days after hatching and that 5?R1 may play a role in the early development of regions important for masculine function.

ALDH isozymes downregulation affects cell growth, cell motility and gene expression in lung cancer cells.

Project description:BackgroundAldehyde dehydrogenase isozymes ALDH1A1 and ALDH3A1 are highly expressed in non small cell lung cancer. Neither the mechanisms nor the biologic significance for such over expression have been studied.MethodsWe have employed oligonucleotide microarrays to analyze changes in gene profiles in A549 lung cancer cell line in which ALDH activity was reduced by up to 95% using lentiviral mediated expression of siRNA against both isozymes (Lenti 1+3). Stringent analysis methods were used to identify gene expression patterns that are specific to the knock down of ALDH activity and significantly different in comparison to wild type A549 cells (WT) or cells similarly transduced with green fluorescent protein (GFP) siRNA.ResultsWe confirmed significant and specific down regulation of ALDH1A1 and ALDH3A1 in Lenti 1+3 cells and in comparison to 12 other ALDH genes detected. The results of the microarray analysis were validated by real time RT-PCR on RNA obtained from Lenti 1+3 or WT cells treated with ALDH activity inhibitors. Detailed functional analysis was performed on 101 genes that were significantly different (P < 0.001) and their expression changed by > or = 2 folds in the Lenti 1+3 group versus the control groups. There were 75 down regulated and 26 up regulated genes. Protein binding, organ development, signal transduction, transcription, lipid metabolism, and cell migration and adhesion were among the most affected pathways.ConclusionThese molecular effects of the ALDH knock-down are associated with in vitro functional changes in the proliferation and motility of these cells and demonstrate the significance of ALDH enzymes in cell homeostasis with a potentially significant impact on the treatment of lung cancer.
