ATP Hydrolyzing Salivary Enzymes of Caterpillars Suppress Plant Defenses
The oral secretions of herbivores are important recognition cues that can be used by plants to mediate induced defenses. In this study, a degradation of adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) in tomato leaves was detected after treatment with Helicoverpa zea saliva. Correspondingly, a high level of ATPase activity in saliva was detected and three ATP hydrolyzing enzymes: apyrase, ATP synthase and ATPa...
متن کاملUbiquitin enzymes in the regulation of immune responses
Ubiquitination plays a central role in the regulation of various biological functions including immune responses. Ubiquitination is induced by a cascade of enzymatic reactions by E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme, E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme, and E3 ubiquitin ligase, and reversed by deubiquitinases. Depending on the enzymes, specific linkage types of ubiquitin chains are generated or hydrolyze...
متن کاملNAD+-Consuming Enzymes in the Regulation of Lung Immune Responses
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) plays a role as a coenzyme in numerous oxidation-reduction reactions and mediates not only energy metabolism and mitochondrial functions, but also calcium homeostasis, aging, and cell death. Moreover, extensive evidence attests to the great importance of the non-redox functions of NAD+ via NAD+consuming enzymes. Indeed, ADP-ribose transferases, cADP-ribo...
متن کاملRegulation of immune responses by prostaglandin E2.
PGE(2), an essential homeostatic factor, is also a key mediator of immunopathology in chronic infections and cancer. The impact of PGE(2) reflects the balance between its cyclooxygenase 2-regulated synthesis and 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase-driven degradation and the pattern of expression of PGE(2) receptors. PGE(2) enhances its own production but suppresses acute inflammatory mediator...
