Regulation of glutamine synthetase activity of hepatoma tissue culture cells by glutamine and dexamethasone.
Regulation of glutamine synthetase activity was studied in a glutamine-independent subclone of the hepatoma tissue culture cell line. In cells of this subclone glutamine synthetase activity was elevated by the synthetic corticosteroid hormone, dexamethasone, and depressed by glutamine. The increase in glutamine synthetase activity due to the addition of dexamethasone and that due to removal of ...
متن کاملRegulation of glutamine synthetase by dexamethasone in hepatoma tissue culture cells.
In certain lines of hepatoma tissue culture (HTC) cells, glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) specific activity is increased 2.5- to 3-fold by the addition of glucocorticoids to the growth media. Actinomycin D blocks both the induction and deinduction of glutamine synthetase by glucocorticoids, suggesting a requirement of RNA synthesis for both processes. Using an antiserum raised against purified...
متن کاملEffect of glutamine on the degradation of glutamine synthetase in hepatoma tissue-culture cells.
In certain lines of hepatoma tissue-culture cells, the extracellular glutamine concentration regulates the specific activity of glutamine synthetase. By quantifying the radioactivity in immunoprecipitated glutamine synthetase on polyacrylamide gels, we found that the rate of degradation, but not of synthesis, of glutamine synthetase is a sensitive function of extracellular glutamine. The activi...
متن کاملClonal Differences in Glutamine Synthetase Activity of Hepatoma Cells
Most hepatomas contain only traces of glutamine synthetase (GS) although they originate from liver which has high levels of the enzyme (1-3) The H T C cell line which was derived from Morris Hepa toma 7288C retained certain characteristics of liver cells, notably the induction of tyrosine amino transferase (4, 5), while other liver characteristics, among them GS activity, could not be detected ...
متن کاملRegulation of synthesis of glutamine synthetase by adenylylated glutamine synthetase.
We have examined three mutants of Klebsiella aerogenes whose genetic lesions (glnB, glnD, and glnE) are in loci unlinked to the structural gene for glutamine sythetase (glnA) and in which the control of both the level and state of adenylylation of glutamine synthetase is altered. Each mutation alters a different component of the adenylylation system of glutamine synthetase [L-glutamate:ammonia ...
