Aspartate 19 And Glutamate 121 Are Critical For Transport Function Of The Myo-Inositol/H+ Symporter From Leishmania Donovani, Andreas Seyfang, Michael Kavanaugh, Scott M. Landfear Jan 1997

Aspartate 19 And Glutamate 121 Are Critical For Transport Function Of The Myo-Inositol/H+ Symporter From Leishmania Donovani, Andreas Seyfang, Michael Kavanaugh, Scott M. Landfear

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

The protozoan flagellate Leishmania donovani has an active myo-inositol/proton symporter (MIT), which is driven by a proton gradient across the parasite membrane. We have used site-directed mutagenesis in combination with functional expression of transporter mutants in Xenopusoocytes and overexpression in Leishmania transfectants to investigate the significance of acidic transmembrane residues for proton relay and inositol transport. MIT has only three charged amino acids within predicted transmembrane domains. Two of these residues, Asp19 (TM1) and Glu121 (TM4), appeared to be critical for transport function of MIT, with a reduction of inositol transport to about 2% of wild-type …


Tyrosine 140 Of The Γ-Aminobutyric Acid Transporter Gat-1 Plays A Critical Role In Neurotransmitter Recognition, Yona Bismuth, Michael Kavanaugh, Baruch I. Kanner Jan 1997

Tyrosine 140 Of The Γ-Aminobutyric Acid Transporter Gat-1 Plays A Critical Role In Neurotransmitter Recognition, Yona Bismuth, Michael Kavanaugh, Baruch I. Kanner

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

The γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter GAT-1 is located in nerve terminals and catalyzes the electrogenic reuptake of the neurotransmitter with two sodium ions and one chloride. We now identify a single tyrosine residue that is critical for GABA recognition and transport. It is completely conserved throughout the superfamily, and even substitution to the other aromatic amino acids, phenylalanine (Y140F) and tryptophan (Y140W), results in completely inactive transporters. Electrophysiological characterization reveals that both mutant transporters exhibit the sodium-dependent transient currents associated with sodium binding as well as the chloride-dependent lithium leak currents characteristic of GAT-1. On the other hand, in both …


Mutation Of An Amino Acid Residue Influencing Potassium Coupling In The Glutamate Transporter Glt-1 Induces Obligate Exchange, Michael Kavanaugh, Annie Bendahan, Noa Zerangue, Yumin Zhang, Baruch I. Kanner Jan 1997

Mutation Of An Amino Acid Residue Influencing Potassium Coupling In The Glutamate Transporter Glt-1 Induces Obligate Exchange, Michael Kavanaugh, Annie Bendahan, Noa Zerangue, Yumin Zhang, Baruch I. Kanner

Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

Glutamate transporters maintain low synaptic concentrations of neurotransmitter by coupling uptake to flux of other ions. After cotransport of glutamic acid with Na+, the cycle is completed by countertransport of K+. We have identified an amino acid residue (glutamate 404) influencing ion coupling in a domain of the transporter implicated previously in kainate binding. Mutation of this residue to aspartate (E404D) prevents both forward and reverse transport induced by K+. Sodium-dependent transmitter exchange and a transporter-mediated chloride conductance are unaffected by the mutation, indicating that this residue selectively influences potassium flux coupling. The results …

Mutagenesis Of Raphanus Sativus Using Ionizing Radiation, Adam Lyko Jan 1997

Mutagenesis Of Raphanus Sativus Using Ionizing Radiation, Adam Lyko

Capstone Research Projects

Mutagenesis of Raphanus sativus was conducted using 10kR, 20kR, and 30kR radiation in an attempt to determine the dosage which produces most mutants without being lethal. Pelargonidin production and physical characteristics of the storage root of the radishes were used as measures of mutagenicity. Plants which received of radiation exhibited the poorest development in every measured aspect except germination which was high. The results of this study suggest that at least 30kR of radiation should be used in experiments involving mutagenesis of Raphanus plants.


Ephedrine: An Herbal Toxicological Hazard, Jeffrey Peeke Jan 1997

Ephedrine: An Herbal Toxicological Hazard, Jeffrey Peeke

Capstone Research Projects

Many individuals are currently using herbal products that are toxicologically unsafe due to inaccurate dosages and/or addition of harmful substances of which the consumer is unaware. This is primarily because the health supplement industry has failed to supply adequate research and regulation on its products. This paper makes a brief review of the general field of toxicology, but ultimately narrows its scope to an in-depth consideration of ephedrine, an ancient Chinese medicinal herb capable of concerted stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system. Ephedrine use has resulted in negative reactions in a number of cases.

Cysteine-to-alanine replacements in the Escherichia coli SoxR protein and the role of the [2Fe-2S] centers in transcriptional act. Nucleic Acids Research, 25(8), 1469-1475.The Escherichia coli soxRS regulon activates oxidative stress and antibiotic resistance genes in two transcriptional stages. SoxR protein becomes activated in cells exposed to excess superoxide or nitric oxide and then stimulates transcription of the soxS gene, whose product in turn activates ≥10 regulon promoters. Purified SoxR protein is a homodimer containing a pair of [2Fe-2S] centers essential for soxS transcription in …
