We have previously developed a cell-free assay from rat skeletal muscle that displayed in vitro glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) transfer from large to small membrane structures by the addition of a cytosolic protein fraction. By combining protein fractionation and the in vitro GLUT4 transfer assay, we have purified a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) phospholipase D (PLD) that induces transfer of GLUT4 from small to large membranes. The in vitro GLUT4 transfer was activated and inhibited by suramin and 1,10-phenanthroline (an activator and an inhibitor of GPI-PLD activity, respectively). Furthermore, upon purfication of the GLUT4 transporter protein, the protein displayed an elution profile in which the molecular mass was related to the charge, suggesting the presence or absence of phosphate. Second, by photoaffinity labeling of the purified GLUT4 with 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3-(m-[125I]iodopenyl)diazirine, both labeled phosphatidylethanolamine and fatty acids (constituents of a GPI link) were recovered. Third, by using phase transition of Triton X-114, the purified GLUT4 was found to be partly detergent resistant, which is a known characteristic of GPI-linked proteins. Fourth, the purified GLUT4 protein was recognized by an antibody raised specifically against GPI links. In conclusion, GLUT4-containing vesicles may be released from a membrane compartment by action of a GPI-PLD.

Glut 4 Translocation

GLUT-4-containing membranes immunoprecipitated from insulin-stimulated rat skeletal muscle produce the phospholipase D (PLD) product phosphatidic acid. In vitro stimulation of PLD in crude membrane with ammonium sulfate (5 mM) resulted in transfer of GLUT-4 (3.0-fold vs. control) as well as transferrin receptor proteins from large to small membrane structures. The in vitro GLUT-4 transfer could be blocked by neomycin (a PLD inhibitor), and neomycin also reduced insulin-stimulated glucose transport in intact incubated soleus muscles. Furthermore, protein kinase Bβ (PKBβ) was found to associate with the GLUT-4 protein and was transferred to small vesicles in response to ammonium sulfate in vitro. Finally, addition of cytosolic proteins, prepared from basal skeletal muscle, and GTP nucleotides to an enriched GLUT-4 membrane fraction resulted in in vitro transfer of GLUT-4 to small membranes (6.8-fold vs. unstimulated control). The cytosol and nucleotide-induced GLUT-4 transfer could be blocked by neomycin and N-ethylmaleimide. In conclusion, we have developed a cell-free assay that demonstrates in vitro GLUT-4 transfer. This transfer may suggest release of GLUT-4-containing vesicles from donor GLUT-4 membranes involving PLD activity and binding of PKBβ to GLUT-4.

AbstractIntroductionThe generation of affinity reagents that bind native membrane proteins with high specificity remains challenging. Most in vitro selection paradigms utilize different cell types for positive and negative rounds of selection (where the positive selection is against a cell that expresses the desired membrane protein and the negative selection is against a cell that lacks the protein). However, this strategy can yield affinity reagents that bind unintended membrane proteins on the target cells. To address this issue, we developed a systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) scheme that utilizes isogenic pairs of cells generated via CRISPR techniques.MethodsUsing a Caco-2 epithelial cell line with constitutive Cas9 expression, we knocked out the SLC2A1 gene (encoding the GLUT1 glucose transporter) via lipofection with synthetic gRNAs. Cell-SELEX rounds were carried out against wild-type and GLUT1-null cells using a single-strand DNA (ssDNA) library. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to quantify enrichment of prospective binders to the wild-type cells.Results10 rounds of cell-SELEX were conducted via simultaneous exposure of ssDNA pools to wild-type and GLUT1-null Caco-2 cells under continuous perfusion. The top binders identified from NGS were validated by flow cytometry and immunostaining for their specificity to the GLUT1 receptor.ConclusionsOur data indicate that highly specific aptamers can be isolated with a SELEX strategy that utilizes isogenic cell lines. This approach should be broadly useful for generating affinity reagents that selectively bind to membrane proteins in their native conformations on the cell surface.

Pronuclear Formation

Cell-free extracts prepared from Xenopus eggs support chromosome decondensation and pronuclear formation on demembranated sperm heads. 32P-dCTP pulse-labelling studies demonstrate that DNA synthesis occurs in multiple bursts of 30–40 min in extracts containing pronuclei, each burst being followed by a period of 20–50 min during which no synthesis occurs. Density substitution with bromodeoxyuridine indicates that the synthesis in each burst is semiconservative and results from new initiations, and that, following multiple bursts of synthesis, reinitiation events can occur. Changes in nuclear morphology have been characterized in the extract by phase-contrast microscopy and by fluorescence microscopy following pulse labelling with biotin-11-dUTP and staining with anti-lamin antibodies. Lamin accumulation occurs as DNA decondenses and parallels the acquisition of membrane structures. Biotin-11-dUTP incorporation is first observed in small nuclei having decondensed DNA and an extensive lamina. While DNA synthesis is occurring nuclei remain relatively small, but rapid swelling accompanied by chromosome condensation occurs when biotin incorporation ceases. Nuclear swelling and chromatin condensation is followed by nuclear membrane breakdown, lamin dispersal and chromosome formation. Mitosis lasts for approximately 20 min. Nuclear reassembly is recognized by the appearance of membrane vesicles around small pieces of decondensed DNA, which parallels the appearance of lamin islands within a chromatin mass. These ‘islands’ incorporate biotin, indicating that DNA synthesis is occurring, and apparently fuse as larger S-phase nuclei are formed. Extensive protein synthesis occurs for at least 4 h in most extracts. This synthesis is required for the initiation of mitotic events and the reinitiation of DNA synthesis.

Stimulation Of

Lysophosphatidylcholine stimulated the activities of collagen galactosyl- and glucosyl-transferases in chick-embryo extract and its particulate fractions in vitro, whereas essentially no stimulation was noted in the high-speed supernatant, where the enzymes are soluble and membrane-free. The stimulatory effect of lysophosphatidylcholine was masked by 0.1% Triton X-100. In kinetic experiments lysophosphatidylcholine raised the maximum velocities with respect to the substrates and co-substrates, whereas no changes were observed in the apparant Km values. Phospholipase A preincubation of the chick-embryo extract resulted in stimulation of both transferase activities, probably gy generating lysophosphatides from endogenous phospholipids. No stimulation by lysophosphatidylcholine was found when tested with 500-fold-purified glycosyltransferase. The results suggest that collagen glycosyltransferases must be associated with the membrane structures of the cell in order to be stimulated by lysophosphatidylcholine. Lysophosphatidylcholine could have some regulatory significance in vivo, since its concentration in the cell is comparable with that which produced marked stimulation in vitro.

Retinol is one of the active forms of vitamin A. In the previous study, it was known that retinol level in serum of DM patient waslower than in healthy people, which correlated with an increase of the glucose levels in these patients. The importance of retinol in insulinsignaling mechanisms that play a role in the pathogenesis of DM is still unknown. One of the components that play a role in insulinsignaling on adipocytes is phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K), which encourages the translocation of glucose transporter-4 (GLUT4) tothe cell surface. The aim of this study was to know the importance of retinol therapy in the levels of PI3K enzyme on visceral adipocyteculture with high glucose exposure (25 mM) as a model of DM in vitro by determination method. Retinol therapy was given at a doseof 0.1 μM, 1 μM , and 10 μM. Measurement of PI3K level was done by ELISA method. The mean (SD) levels of PI3K enzyme were 1.91(0.27), 0.94 (0.15), 1.98 (0.22), 1.69 (0.81), 2.04 (0.16) ng/mL respectively, for adipocyte cultures exposed to 5mM glucose (as aphysiological condition), 25mM glucose, and 25mM glucose concentration with doses of retinol therapy 0.1 μM, 1 μM and10 μM. Theresults of this study indicated that high glucose exposure (25 mM) decreased the level of PI3K compared with adipocyte’s culture on5 mM glucose exposure. Retinol therapy with a dose of 0.1μM, 1μM and10 μM on adipocyte culture exposed with high glucose couldincrease the levels of PI3K.

The present study examined the effects of 6 wk of ovarian endocrine deficiency on skeletal muscle GLUT-4 glucose transporter protein and glucose transport activity in sedentary and endurance-trained rats. Female Wistar rats (10 wk old) underwent bilateral ovariectomy (OVX) or sham surgery followed by a 5-wk swim-training protocol. OVX resulted in no significant changes in glycogen or GLUT-4 glucose transporter concentration in the soleus, epitrochlearis, or flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscles or in basal and maximally insulin-stimulated 2-deoxy-D-[1,2-3H]glucose (2-[3H]DG) transport in the soleus or epitrochlearis, suggesting that moderate-duration ovarian hormone deficiency does not significantly impair insulin action in skeletal muscle. In contrast, OVX decreased the maximal activation of 2-[3H]DG transport in the FDB by in vitro electrical stimulation. OVX had no significant effect on the training-induced changes in oxidative enzyme activities, GLUT-4 protein expression, glycogen content, or insulin-stimulated 2-[3H]DG transport in the soleus or epitrochlearis. These findings provide the first evidence that ovarian hormone deficiency decreases contraction-stimulated glucose transport in skeletal muscle.
