Subcellular localization of the enzyme that forms mannosyl retinyl phosphate from guanosine diphosphate [14C]mannose and retinyl phosphate.

چکیده
The subcellular distribution of the enzyme catalysing the conversion of retinyl phosphate and GDP-[14C]mannose into [14C]mannosyl retinyl phosphate was determined by using subcellular fractions of rat liver. Purity of fractions, as determined by marker enzymes, was 80% or better. The amount of mannosyl retinyl phosphate formed (pmol/min per mg of protein) for each fraction was: rough endoplasmic reticulum 0.48 +/- 0.09 (mean +/- S.D.); smooth membranes (consisting of 60% smooth endoplasmic reticulum and 40% Golgi apparatus), 0.18 +/- 0.03; Golgi apparatus, 0.13 +/- 0.03; and plasma membrane 0.02.

Transfer of mannose from mannosyl retinyl phosphate to protein.
Upon incubation of [14C]mannose-labeled mannosyl retinyl phosphate with a membrane fraction from rat liver, mannose was transferred to an endogenous acceptor precipitable withchloroform/methanol to the extent of about 7%. The reaction proceeded linearly with time for 120 min at a pH optimum of about 7.0. The acceptor thus labeled with mannose could be solubilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate/merca...
متن کاملRat liver microsomes catalyse mannosyl transfer from GDP-D-mannose to retinyl phosphate with high efficiency in the absence of detergents.
In the absence of detergent, the transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to rat liver microsomal vesicles was highly stimulated by exogenous retinyl phosphate in incubations containing bovine serum albumin, as measured in a filter binding assay. Under these conditions 65% of mannose 6-phosphatase activity was latent. The transfer process was linear with time up to 5min and with protein concentrati...
متن کاملMannosyltransferase activity in calf pancreas microsomes. Formation from guanosine diphosphate-D-(14C)mannose of a 14C-labeled mannolipid with properties of dolichyl mannopyranosyl phosphate.
Calf pancreas microsomes incorporated radioactive mannose from GDP-D-[14C]mannose into products precipitated by 6% trichloroacetic acid-O.5 % phosphotungstic acid. This incorporation was maximally stimulated by 10 mM Mn2+ ions and showed a broad pH optimum of 6.0 to 6.7 in ‘I ris-maleate buffer. Between 70 and 90% of the radioactivity was found in products soluble in chloroform-methanol (2 : 1,...
متن کاملRetinyl palmitate, retinyl phosphate, and dolichyl phosphate of postnuclear membrane fraction from hepatoma, host liver, and regenerating liver: marginal vitamin A status of hepatoma tissue.
The retinyl palmitate content of the postnuclear membrane fraction from 10 Morris hepatomas, their host rat livers, one acetylaminofluorene-induced rat liver hepatoma, and the host liver and of regenerating rat liver was measured by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography of the chloroform:methanol extracts. Membranes from the hepatoma tissue contained less than detectable levels of r...
متن کاملSynthesis of retinyl phosphate mannose in vitro
Hamster liver microsomal membranes catalyse the synthesis of retinyl phosphate mannose (Ret-P-Man) from GDP-mannose and exogenous retinyl phosphate (RetP). We have previously shown that maximal Ret-P-Man synthesis occurs in vitro at 20-30min, followed by a subsequent loss of mannose from Ret-P-Man, suggestive of an intermediary function of Ret-P-Man and/or Ret-P-Man breakdown [Shidoji, Silverma...
