FAD transport and FAD-dependent protein thiol oxidation in rat liver microsomes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transport of FAD and its effect on disulfide bond formation was investigated in rat liver microsomal vesicles. By measuring the intravesicular FAD-accessible space, we observed that FAD permeates across the microsomal membrane and accumulates in the lumen. Rapid filtration experiments also demonstrated the uptake and efflux of the compound, which could be inhibited by atractyloside and 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid. FAD entering the lumen promoted the oxidation of protein thiols and increased the intraluminal oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate. These findings support the notion that, similar to yeast, free FAD may have a decisive role in the mechanism of oxidative protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen of mammalian cells.

The molecular steps of the electron transfer in the endoplasmic reticulum from the secreted proteins during their oxidation are relatively unknown. We present here that flavine adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a powerful oxidizer of the oxidoreductase system, Ero1 and PDI, besides the proteins of rat liver microsomes and HepG2 hepatoma cells. Inhibition of FAD transport hindered the action of FAD....
متن کاملFAD synthesis and degradation in the nucleus create a local flavin cofactor pool.
FAD is a redox cofactor ensuring the activity of many flavoenzymes mainly located in mitochondria but also relevant for nuclear redox activities. The last enzyme in the metabolic pathway producing FAD is FAD synthase (EC 2.7.7.2), a protein known to be localized both in cytosol and in mitochondria. FAD degradation to riboflavin occurs via still poorly characterized enzymes, possibly belonging t...

A number of hydrazine derivatives were tested as substrates for the purified liver microsomal FAD-containing monooxygenase and the kinetic properties of the oxidation reactions were partially characterized. Only 1,l-dimethylhydrazine, l-methyl-l-phenylhydrazine, and the N-aminoheterocyclic hydrazines are oxidized as effectively as N,N-dimethylaniline, one of the best N-methylamine substrates fo...

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, which catalyzes electron transfer to cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes in reactions leading to the hydroxylation of a variety of substrates, is known to contain 1 molecule each of FMN and FAD per polypeptide chain. The spectrophotometric changes accompanying stepwise reduction of the oxidized enzyme under anaerobic conditions have recently been described. In...
