NADH Oxidase Activity of Plasma Membranes of Soybean Hypocotyls Is Activated by Guanine Nucleotides.
The activity of an auxin-stimulated NADH oxidase of the plasma membrane of hypocotyls of etiolated soybean (Glycine max Merr.) seedlings responded to guanine and other nucleotides, but in a manner that differed from that of enzymes coupled to the classic trimeric and low molecular weight monomeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins). In the presence and absence of either auxin or d...
متن کاملActivation of Plasma Membrane NADH Oxidase Activity by Products of Phospholipase A.
An auxin-stimulated NADH oxidase activity (NADH oxidase I) of plasma membrane vesicles, highly purified by aqueous two-phase partition from soybean (Glycine max Merr.) hypocotyls was activated by lysophospholipids and fatty acids, both products of phospholipase A action. The activation of NADH oxidase activity occurred slowly, suggesting a mechanism whereby the lipids acted to stabilize the enz...
متن کاملApoptosis induced by inhibitors of the plasma membrane NADH-oxidase involves Bcl-2 and calcineurin.
Activation of the plasma membrane NADH-oxidoreductase (PMOR) system by addition of growth factors or extracellular electron acceptors stimulates cellular proliferation. We now show that the vanilloids capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin, and resiniferatoxin are inhibitors of the NADH-oxidase activity of the PMOR system and that both these and two previously identified PMOR inhibitors (chloroquine and r...
متن کاملNADH-oxidase, NADPH-oxidase and myeloperoxidase activity of visceral leishmaniasis patients.
It is believed that the enhanced capability of activated macrophages to resist infection is related to the remarkable increase in the production of oxygen metabolites in response to phagocytosis. Both the production of H2O2 and the oxidation of NAD(P)H are directly dependent upon NAD(P)H-oxidase. It has been established that the respiratory burst is due to activation of NAD(P)H-oxidase localise...
متن کاملNADH oxidase activity of mitochondrial apoptosis-inducing factor.
Apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) is a mitochondrial flavoprotein, which translocates to the nucleus during apoptosis and causes chromatin condensation and large scale DNA fragmentation. Here we report the biochemical characterization of AIF's redox activity. Natural AIF purified from mitochondria and recombinant AIF purified from bacteria (AIFDelta1-120) exhibit NADH oxidase activity, whereas su...
