Analysis of substrate binding in individual active sites of bifunctional human ATIC

2018

Aminoimidazolecarboxamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase (AICARFT): Inosine monophosphate cyclohydrolase (IMPCH, collectively called ATIC) is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyses the penultimate and final steps in the purine de novo biosynthesis pathway. The bifunctional protein is dimeric and each monomer contains two different active sites both of which are capable of binding nucleotide substrates, this means to a potential total of four distinct binding events might be observed. Within this work we used a combination of site-directed and truncation mutants of ATIC to independently investigate the binding at these two sites using calorimetry. A single S10W mutation is sufficient to blo…

Cloning and tissue expression of two cDNAs encoding the peroxisomal 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase in the guinea pig liver

1996

Abstract The 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HD) is the second enzyme of the peroxisomal β-oxidation pathway. In human and rat, only one HD mRNA has been so far detected in the liver. This paper reports for the first time in a mammal species, the guinea pig, the cloning and sequencing of two cDNAs encoding an HD. The 3,274 nucleotide-cDNA is a strictly identical but longer copy of the 2,494 nucleotide-form. A 2,178 by-open reading frame encodes a protein of 726 amino acids ( M r 79.3 kDa) with the peroxisomal-targeting signal (tripeptide SKL) at the carboxyterminus. Northern blot analysis of HD mRNA identified three mRNAs of respective sizes 3.5, 2.6 and 1.6 kb in the…

The analysis of modified peroxisome proliferator responsive elements of the peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme in transfected HepG2 cells reveals two re…

1995

AbstractPeroxisome proliferators (PPs) are non-genotoxic carcinogens in rodents. They can induce the expression of numerous genes via the heterodimerization of two members of the steroid hormone receptor superfamily, called the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and the 9-cis retinoic acid receptor (RXR). Many of the PP responsive genes possess a peroxisome proliferator response element (PPRE) formed by two TGACCT-related motifs. The bifunctional enzyme (HD) PPRE contains 3 such motifs, creating DR1 and DR2 sequences. PPAR and RXR regulate transcription via the DR1 element while DR2 modulates the expression of the gene via auxiliary factors in HepG2 cells.

Peroxisomal and mitochondrial status of two murine oligodendrocytic cell lines (158N, 158JP): potential models for the study of peroxisomal disorders…

2009

International audience; In some neurodegenerative disorders (leukodystrophies) characterized by myelin alterations, the defect of peroxisomal functions on myelin-producing cells (oligodendrocytes) are poorly understood. The development of in vitro models is fundamental to understanding the physiopathogenesis of these diseases. We characterized two immortalized murine oligodendrocyte cell lines: a normal (158N) and a jimpy (158JP) cell line mutated for the proteolipid protein PLP/DM20. Fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and western blotting analysis allow to identify major myelin proteins (PLP colocalizing with mitochondria; myelin basic protein), oligodendrocyte (CNPase and myelin oli…

The peroxisome proliferator response element (PPRE) present at positions -681/-669 in the rat liver 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase B gene functionally inter…

2000

Although previous data showed that the putative thiolase B PPRE located at -681/-669 bind the PPARalpha-RXRalpha heterodimer in vitro (Kliewer et al. (1992) Nature 358, 771-774), there is no evidence about the functional role of this element. By gel mobility-shift assay, we found an interaction of this PPRE with not only PPARalpha but also with HNF-4. By transfection of cells with the putative PPRE-driven luciferase reporter vector and PPARalpha, we found no significant activation of the luciferase gene expression, in contrast to the case with reporter expression driven by the PPRE of the peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme. On the other hand, HNF-4 activated the luciferase gene expression driv…
