Proteasomes in human spermatozoa.
In the present study we describe the localization of proteasomes in human spermatozoa by means of immunolabelling with different monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies detected by confocal microscopy. Western blotting confirmed the specificity of the antibodies and has shown that proteasomes are present in spermatozoa and in seminal fluid. In spermatozoa proteasomes are concentrated in the neck r...
متن کاملAn Adenosinetriphosphate-Activated Hemolytic System
Lysis of human red cells in vitro by an enzyme obtained from rabbit red cell hemolysates and the inhibition of this lytic activity by human stroma have been shown to require Mg(++) and ATP, and ATP utilization has been demonstrated in both reactions. We find that sodium or potassium ions are also required for the lytic phenomenon and that they enhance the inhibition. The rate of hemolysis is no...
متن کاملDephosphorylation of Adenosinetriphosphate by Normal and Pathological Human Sera.
Adenosinediphosphate (ADP) may be dephosphorylated to adenylic acid by adenosinediphosphatase (Reaction B). However, evidence for a specific ADP-ase is lacking and it is probable that the two-step dephosphorylation of ATP is catalyzed by the same enzyme (1). In muscle, ADP is converted to adenylic acid by the action of myokinase (1), in which labile phosphate is transferred from one molecule of...
متن کاملRelationship between sperm ATP content and motility of carp spermatozoa.
Carp spermatozoa are immotile in seminal plasma or in saline solution of high osmolality (> 400 mosmol kg-1). These 'quiescent' spermatozoa initiate a progressive forward motility when transferred in freshwater or in saline solution with low osmolality (< 160 mosmol kg-1). In this study we investigated 'in vitro' the relationship between sperm ATP content (measured by bioluminescence) and sperm...
متن کاملSurface glycoproteins of human spermatozoa.
The surface membrane glycoprotein composition of human spermatozoa has been studied by introducing radioactive label into galactosyl (Gal) and N-acetylgalactosaminyl (GalNAc) residues by using the galactose oxidase/NaB3H4 method. Triton X-100 extracts and Triton X-100-resistant cytoskeletal residues were subjected to analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The distribution of the radiol...
