Proteins from the axonemes and disc cytoskeleton of Giardia lamblia have been examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In addition to tubulin and the 30 X 10(3) molecular weight disc protein, at least 18 minor components copurify with the two major proteins in Triton-insoluble structures. The most prominent minor bands have the apparent molecular weights of 110 X 10(3), 95 X 10(3) and 81 X 10(3). Protein of 30 X 10(3) molecular weight accounts for about 20% of organelle protein on gels. In continuous 25 mM-Tris-glycine buffer it migrates mostly as a close-spaced doublet of polypeptides, which are here given the name giardins. Giardia tubulin and giardin have been purified by gel filtration chromatography in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. Well-separated fractions were obtained that could be further characterized. Both proteins are heterogeneous when examined by isoelectric focusing. Five tubulin chains were detected by PAGE Blue 83 dye-binding after focusing in a broad-range ampholyte gel. Giardin is slightly less acidic than tubulin. On gels it splits into four major and four minor chains with isoelectric points in the pI range from 5.8 to 6.2. The amino acid composition of the giardin fraction has been determined, and compared to Giardia tubulin and a rat brain tubulin standard. Giardins are rich in helix-forming residues, particularly leucine. They have a low content of proline and glycine; therefore they may have extensive alpha-helical regions and be rod-shaped. As integral proteins of disc microribbons, giardins in vivo associate closely with tubulin. The properties of giardins indicate that in a number of respects - molecular size, charge, stoichiometry - their structural interaction with tubulin assemblies will be different from other tubulin-accessory protein copolymers studied in vitro.

Multicatalytic Proteinase

A multicatalytic proteinase from rat skeletal muscle contains active site(s) catalysing the degradation of benzoyl-Val-Gly-Arg 4-methyl-7-coumarylamide, succinyl-Ala-Ala-Phe 4-methylcoumarylamide and [14C]methylcasein as well as benzyloxy-carbonyl-Leu-Leu-Glu 2-naphthylamide. These activities are 7-14-fold activated by 1 mM-sodium dodecyl sulphate. The activation leads to a higher susceptibility to the proteinase inhibitor chymostatin and to a lower ability to be inhibited and precipitated by antibodies raised against the non-activated enzyme. Since no changes in Mr or subunit composition were observed in the SDS-activated form, some conformational changes seem to occur during the activation step. More pronounced activation was observed in the presence of physiological concentrations of fatty acids; oleic acid at 100 microM concentrations stimulated the proteinase about 50-fold. In contrast with the non-activated proteinase, the activated enzyme considerably degrades muscle cytoplasmic proteins in vitro. Thus it is not unlikely that, in vivo, potential activators such as fatty acids can induce the multicatalytic proteinase to participate in muscle protein breakdown.

Basic Proteins

When rat brain myelin was examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamideslab-gel electrophoresis followed by fluorography of the stained gel, it was found that a host of proteins of rat brain myelin were labelled 2, 4 and 24h after the intracerebral injection of H332PO4. Among those labelled were proteins migrating to the positions of myelin-associated glycoprotein, Wolfgram proteins, proteolipid protein, DM-20 and basic proteins. The four basic proteins with mol.wts. 21000, 18000 (large basic protein), 17000 and 14000 (small basic protein) were shown to be phosphorylated after electrophoresis in both acid-urea- and sodium dodecyl sulphate-containing gel systems followed by fluorography. The four basic proteins imparted bluish-green colour, after staining with Amido Black, which is characteristic of myelin basic proteins. The four basic proteins were purified to homogeneity. Fluorography of the purified basic proteins after re-electrophoresis revealed the presence of phosphorylated high-molecular-weight ‘polymers’ associated with each basic protein. The amino acid compositions of the phosphorylated large basic protein and small basic proteins are compatible with the amino acid sequences. Proteins with mol.wts. 21000 and 17000 gave the expected amino acid composition of myelin basic proteins. Radiolabelled phosphoserine and phosphothreonine were identified after partial acid hydrolysis of the four purified basic proteins. The [32P]phosphate–protein bond in the basic protein was stable at an acidic pH but was readily hydrolysed at alkaline pH, as would be expected of phosphoester bonds involving both serine and threonine residues. Double-immunodiffusion analysis demonstrated that the four phosphorylated proteins showed complete homology when diffused against antiserum to a mixture of small and large basic proteins. Since the four basic proteins of rat brain myelin were phosphorylated both in vivo and in vitro it is postulated that the same protein kinase is responsible for their phosphorylation in both conditions.

General Protein Synthesis

1. Postmitochondrial supernatants were prepared from the livers of chick embryos and were incubated under conditions that supported protein synthesis. delta-Aminolaevulinate synthase (EC 2.3.1.37) was synthesized by supernatants from livers treated with the porphyrinogenic drugs 2-allyl-2-isopropylacetamide and/or 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine, but synthesis by supernatants from normal livers could not be detected. Synthesis of enzyme released from polyribosomes was measured by immunoprecipitation with specific antibody to the mitochondrial enzyme, and the specificity of the reaction was established by electrophoresis of dissociated immunoprecipitates on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels. 2. The relative synthesis of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase in vitro was comparable with that previously measured in vivo, and was correlated with the enzyme activity of the liver. 3. Enzyme synthesis in vitro occurred predominantly on free rather than membrane-bound polyribosomes. 4. The mol.wt. of the product synthesized in vitro was 7000 +/- 7000 by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. However, pulse-labelling of the enzyme in vivo confirmed its mol.wt. to be 49000 +/- 5000 when isolated from the mitochondrion. A small amount of immunoprecipitable enzyme of mol.wt. 70000 was detected in the cytosol in vivo. In chick embryo liver, delta-aminolaevulinate synthase therefore appears to be synthesized on cytoplasmic polyribosomes as a polypeptide of mol.wt. 70000, which in vivo is rapidly incorporated into the mitochondrion, and is then extracted as a lower-molecular-weight form. 5. Haemin added to the postmitochondrial supernatant-containing incubation mixture at concentrations up to 10 muM had no effect on general protein synthesis or the synthesis of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase. On the other hand, haemin treatment of induced chick embryo livers in vivo for 3h markedly decreased the relative synthesis of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase in vitro. These results suggest that haemin represses the synthesis of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase by decreasing the amount of mRNA for the enzyme available for translation.

Obvious Similarity

1. The low-molecular-weight components of myosin from rabbit skeletal muscle migrated as four bands on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in 8m-urea but only as three in systems containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. The two bands of intermediate mobility in 8m-urea (Ml2 and Ml3) had identical mobilities in sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. The isolation of pure samples of all four low-molecular-weight components by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography is described. 3. The amino acid compositions of components Ml2 and Ml3 were identical. Further analyses showed the presence of 1 mol of phosphate/18500g of component Ml2 and less than 10% of this amount in component Ml3. Neither light component contained ribose. 4. Alkaline phosphatase from Escherichia coli converted component Ml2 into Ml3. Incubation with crude preparations of phosphorylase b kinase or protein kinase in the presence of ATP converted component Ml3 into Ml2. 5. Phosphorylation of component Ml3 with the kinases isolated from skeletal muscle and [γ-32P]ATP gave incorporation of 32P only into component Ml2 whether whole myosin or separated low-molecular-weight components were used. 6. High-voltage electrophoresis at pH6.5 and pH1.8 of a chymotryptic digest of 32P-labelled component Ml2 yielded one major radioactive peptide containing serine phosphate. 7. The amino acid sequence of this peptide was shown to be: Arg-Ala-Ala-Ala-Glu-Gly-Gly-(Ser,Ser(P))-Asn-Val-Phe. This sequence shows no obvious similarity to the site phosphorylated in the conversion of phosphorylase b into phosphorylase a by phosphorylase b kinase. 8. Evidence suggests that in vivo all the 18500-molecular-weight light chain is in the phosphorylated form. The extent of dephosphorylation that occurred during myosin extraction depended on the conditions employed.
