      Ribosomal protein S14 can be classified into three types. The first, the C+ type has a Zn2+ binding motif and is ancestral. The second and third are the C- short and C- long types, neither of which contain a Zn2+ binding motif and which are ca. 90 residues and 100 residues in length, respectively. In the present study, the C+ type S14 from Bacillus subtilis ribosomes (S14BsC+) were completely replaced by the heterologous C- long type of S14 from Escherichia coli (S14Ec) or Synechococcus elongatus (S14Se). Surprisingly, S14Ec and S14Se were incorporated fully into 70S ribosomes in B. subtilis However, the growth rates as well as the sporulation efficiency of the mutants harboring heterologous S14 were significantly decreased. In these mutants, the polysome fraction was decreased and the 30S and 50S subunits accumulated unusually, indicating that cellular translational activity of these mutants was decreased. In vitro analysis showed a reduction in the translational activity of the 70S ribosome fraction purified from these mutants. The abundance of ribosomal proteins S2 and S3 in the 30S fraction in these mutants was reduced while that of S14 was not significantly decreased. It seems likely that binding of heterologous S14 changes the structure of the 30S subunit, which causes a decrease in the assembly efficiency of S2 and S3, which are located near the binding site of S14. Moreover, we found that S3 from S. elongatus cannot function in B. subtilis unless S14Se is present.IMPORTANCE S14, an essential ribosomal protein, may have evolved to adapt bacteria to zinc-limited environments by replacement of a zinc-binding motif with a zinc-independent sequence. It was expected that the bacterial ribosome would be tolerant to replacement of S14 because of the previous prediction that the spread of C- type S14 involved horizontal gene transfer. In this study, we completely replaced the C+ type of S14 in B. subtilis ribosome with the heterologous C- long type of S14 and characterized the resulting chimeric ribosomes. Our results suggest that the B. subtilis ribosome is permissive for the replacement of S14, but coevolution of S3 might be required to utilize the C- long type of S14 more effectively.

      The ε subunits of several bacterial F1-ATPases bind ATP. ATP binding to the ε subunit has been shown to be involved in the regulation of F1-ATPase from thermophilic Bacillus sp. PS3 (TF1). We previously reported that the dissociation constant for ATP of wild-type ε subunit of TF1 at 25 °C is 4.3 μM by measuring changes in the fluorescence of the dye attached to the ε subunit (Kato, S. et al. (2007) J. Biol. Chem. 282, 37618). However, we have recently noticed that this varies with the dye used. In this report, to determine the affinity for ATP under label-free conditions, we have measured the competitive displacement of 2'(3')-O-N'-methylaniloyl-aminoadenosine-5'-triphosphate (Mant-ATP), a fluorescent analog of ATP, by ATP. The dissociation constant for ATP of wild-type ε subunit of TF1 at 25 °C was determined to be 0.29 μM, which is one order of magnitude higher affinity than previously reported values.

      The ε subunit of Fo F1 -ATPase/synthase (Fo F1 ) plays a crucial role in regulating Fo F1 activity. To understand the physiological significance of the ε subunit-mediated regulation of Fo F1 in Bacillus subtilis, we constructed and characterized a mutant harboring a deletion in the C-terminal regulatory domain of the ε subunit (ε∆C ). Analyses using inverted membrane vesicles revealed that the ε∆C mutation decreased ATPase activity and the ATP-dependent H+ -pumping activity of Fo F1 . To enhance the effects of ε∆C mutation, this mutation was introduced into a ∆rrn8 strain harboring only two of the 10 rrn (rRNA) operons (∆rrn8 ε∆C mutant strain). Interestingly, growth of the ∆rrn8 ε∆C mutant stalled at late-exponential phase. During the stalled growth phase, the membrane potential of the ∆rrn8 ε∆C mutant cells was significantly reduced, which led to a decrease in the cellular level of 70S ribosomes. The growth stalling was suppressed by adding glucose into the culture medium. Our findings suggest that the C-terminal region of the ε subunit is important for alleviating the temporal reduction in the membrane potential, by enhancing the ATP-dependent H+ -pumping activity of Fo F1 .

      Individually, the ribosomal proteins L1, L23, L36, and S6 are not essential for cell proliferation of Bacillus subtilis, but the absence of any one of these ribosomal proteins causes a defect in the formation of the 70S ribosomes and a reduced growth rate. In mutant strains individually lacking these ribosomal proteins, the cellular Mg2+ content was significantly reduced. The deletion of YhdP, an exporter of Mg2+, and overexpression of MgtE, the main importer of Mg2+, increased the cellular Mg2+ content and restored the formation of 70S ribosomes in these mutants. The increase in the cellular Mg2+ content improved the growth rate and the cellular translational activity of the ΔrplA (L1) and the ΔrplW (L23) mutants but did not restore those of the ΔrpmJ (L36) and the ΔrpsF (S6) mutants. The lack of L1 caused a decrease in the production of Spo0A, the master regulator of sporulation, resulting in a decreased sporulation frequency. However, deletion of yhdP and overexpression of mgtE increased the production of Spo0A and partially restored the sporulation frequency in the ΔrplA (L1) mutant. These results indicate that Mg2+ can partly complement the function of several ribosomal proteins, probably by stabilizing the conformation of the ribosome.IMPORTANCE We previously reported that an increase in cellular Mg2+ content can suppress defects in 70S ribosome formation and growth rate caused by the absence of ribosomal protein L34. In the present study, we demonstrated that, even in mutants lacking individual ribosomal proteins other than L34 (L1, L23, L36, and S6), an increase in the cellular Mg2+ content could restore 70S ribosome formation. Moreover, the defect in sporulation caused by the absence of L1 was also suppressed by an increase in the cellular Mg2+ content. These findings indicate that at least part of the function of these ribosomal proteins can be complemented by Mg2+, which is essential for all living cells.

    • Mechanistic Insights into the Activation of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase by Carbon Monoxide: A Multistep Mechanism Proposed for the BAY 41-2272 Induced Formation of 5-Coordinate CO-Heme. 査読有り 国際誌

      Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) is a heme-containing enzyme that catalyzes cGMP production upon sensing NO. While the CO adduct, sGC-CO, is much less active, the allosteric regulator BAY 41-2272 stimulates the cGMP productivity to the same extent as that of sGC-NO. The stimulatory effect has been thought to be likely associated with Fe-His bond cleavage leading to 5-coordinate CO-heme, but the detailed mechanism remains unresolved. In this study, we examined the mechanism under the condition including BAY 41-2272, 2'-deoxy-3'-GMP and foscarnet. The addition of these effectors caused the original 6-coordinate CO-heme to convert to an end product that was an equimolar mixture of a 5- and a new 6-coordinate CO-heme, as assessed by IR spectral measurements. The two types of CO-hemes in the end product were further confirmed by CO dissociation kinetics. Stopped-flow measurements under the condition indicated that the ferrous sGC bound CO as two reversible steps, where the primary step was assigned to the full conversion of the ferrous enzyme to the 6-coordinate CO-heme, and subsequently followed by the slower second step leading a partial conversion of the 6-coordinate CO-heme to the 5-coordinate CO-heme. The observed rates for both steps linearly depended on CO concentrations. The unexpected CO dependence of the rates in the second step supports a multistep mechanism, in which the 5-coordinate CO-heme is led by CO release from a putative bis-carbonyl intermediate that is likely provided by the binding of a second CO to the 6-coordinate CO-heme. This mechanism provides a new aspect on the activation of sGC by CO.

      3-Isopropylmalate dehydrogenase (IPMDH) from the extreme piezophile Shewanella benthica (SbIPMDH) is more pressure-tolerant than that from the atmospheric pressure-adapted Shewanella oneidensis (SoIPMDH). To understand the molecular mechanisms of this pressure tolerance, we analyzed mutated enzymes. The results indicate that only a single mutation at position 266, corresponding to Ala (SbIPMDH) and Ser (SoIPMDH), essentially affects activity under higher-pressure conditions. Structural analyses of SoIPMDH suggests that penetration of three water molecules into the cleft around Ser266 under high-pressure conditions could reduce the activity of the wild-type enzyme; however, no water molecule is observed in the Ala266 mutant.

      Ribosome dimers are a translationally inactive form of ribosomes found in Escherichia coli and many other bacterial cells. In this study, we found that the 70S ribosomes of Bacillus subtilis dimerized during the early stationary phase and these dimers remained in the cytoplasm until regrowth was initiated. Ribosome dimerization during the stationary phase required the hpf gene, which encodes a homologue of the E. coli hibernation-promoting factor (Hpf). The expression of hpf was induced at an early stationary phase and its expression was observed throughout the rest of the experimental period, including the entire 6 h of the stationary phase. Ribosome dimerization followed the induction of hpf in WT cells, but the dimerization was impaired in cells harbouring a deletion in the hpf gene. Although the absence of ribosome dimerization in these Hpf-deficient cells did not affect their viability in the stationary phase, their ability to regrow from the stationary phase decreased. Thus, following the transfer of stationary-phase cells to fresh LB medium, Δhpf mutant cells grew slower than WT cells. This observed lag in growth of Δhpf cells was probably due to a delay in restoring their translational activity. During regrowth, the abundance of ribosome dimers in WT cells decreased with a concomitant increase in the abundance of 70S ribosomes and growth rate. These results suggest that the ribosome dimers, by providing 70S ribosomes to the cells, play an important role in facilitating rapid and efficient regrowth of cells under nutrient-rich conditions.

      F1-ATPase from Bacillus subtilis (BF1) is severely suppressed by the MgADP inhibition. Here, we have tested if this is due to the loss of nucleotide binding to the noncatalytic site that is required for the activation. Measurements with a tryptophan mutant of BF1 indicated that the noncatalytic sites could bind ATP normally. Furthermore, the mutant BF1 that cannot bind ATP to the noncatalytic sites showed much lower ATPase activity. It was concluded that the cause of strong MgADP inhibition of BF1 is not the weak nucleotide binding to the noncatalytic sites but the other steps required for the activation.

      ATP binding to the ϵ subunit of F1-ATPase, a soluble subcomplex of TFoF1 (FoF1-ATPase synthase from the thermophilic Bacillus strain PS3), affects the regulation of F1-ATPase activity by stabilizing the compact, ATPase-active, form of the ϵ subunit [Kato, S., Yoshida, M. and Kato-Yamada, Y. (2007) J. Biol. Chem. 282, 37618-37623]. In the present study, we report how ATP binding to the ϵ subunit affects ATPase and H+ pumping activities in the holoenzyme TFoF1. Wild-type TFoF1 showed significant H+ pumping activity when ATP was used as the substrate. However, GTP, which bound poorly to the ϵ subunit, did not support efficient H+ pumping. Addition of small amounts of ATP to the GTP substrate restored coupling between GTPase and H+ pumping activities. Similar uncoupling was observed when TFoF1 contained an ATP-binding-deficient ϵ subunit, even with ATP as a substrate. Further analysis suggested that the compact conformation of the ϵ subunit induced by ATP binding was required to couple ATPase and H+ pumping activities in TFoF1 unless the ϵ subunit was in its extended-state conformation. The present study reveals a novel role of the ϵ subunit as an ATP-sensitive regulator of the coupling of ATPase and H+ pumping activities of TFoF1.

      Subunit epsilon of bacterial and chloroplast F(O)F(1)-ATP synthase is responsible for inhibition of ATPase activity. In Bacillus PS3 enzyme, subunit epsilon can adopt two conformations. In the "extended", inhibitory conformation, its two C-terminal alpha-helices are stretched along subunit gamma. In the "contracted", noninhibitory conformation, these helices form a hairpin. The transition of subunit epsilon from an extended to a contracted state was studied in ATP synthase incorporated in Bacillus PS3 membranes at 59 degrees C. Fluorescence energy resonance transfer between fluorophores introduced in the C-terminus of subunit epsilon and in the N-terminus of subunit gamma was used to follow the conformational transition in real time. It was found that ATP induced the conformational transition from the extended to the contracted state (half-maximum transition extent at 140 microM ATP). ADP could neither prevent nor reverse the ATP-induced conformational change, but it did slow it down. Acid residues in the DELSEED region of subunit beta were found to stabilize the extended conformation of epsilon. Binding of ATP directly to epsilon was not essential for the ATP-induced conformational change. The ATP concentration necessary for the half-maximal transition (140 microM) suggests that subunit epsilon probably adopts the extended state and strongly inhibits ATP hydrolysis only when the intracellular ATP level drops significantly below the normal value.

      The F1-ATPase, the soluble part of FoF1-ATP synthase, is a rotary molecular motor consisting of α3β3γδε. The γ and ε subunits rotate relative to the α3β3δ sub-complex on ATP hydrolysis by the β subunit. The ε subunit is known as an endogenous inhibitor of the ATPase activity of the F1-ATPase and is believed to function as a regulator of the ATP synthase. This inhibition by the ε subunit (ε inhibition) of F1-ATPase from thermophilic Bacillus PS3 was analyzed by single molecule measurements. By using a mutant ε subunit deficient in ATP binding, reversible transitions between active and inactive states were observed. Analysis of pause and rotation durations showed that the ε inhibition takes a different path from the ADP-Mg inhibition. Furthermore, the addition of the mutant ε subunit to the α3β3γ sub-complex was found to facilitate recovery of the ATPase activity from the ADP-Mg inhibition. Thus, it was concluded that these two inhibitions are essentially exclusive of each other.

      Effect of epsilon subunit on the nucleotide binding to the catalytic sites of F(1)-ATPase from the thermophilic Bacillus PS3 (TF(1)) has been tested by using alpha(3)beta(3)gamma and alpha(3)beta(3)gammaepsilon complexes of TF(1) containing betaTyr341 to Trp substitution. The nucleotide binding was assessed with fluorescence quenching of the introduced Trp. The presence of the epsilon subunit weakened ADP binding to each catalytic site, especially to the highest affinity site. This effect was also observed when GDP or IDP was used. The ratio of the affinity of the lowest to the highest nucleotide binding sites had changed two orders of magnitude by the epsilon subunit. The differences may relate to the energy required for the binding change in the ATP synthesis reaction and contribute to the efficient ATP synthesis.

      Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is the major energy currency of cells and is involved in many cellular processes. However, there is no method for real-time monitoring of ATP levels inside individual living cells. To visualize ATP levels, we generated a series of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based indicators for ATP that were composed of the epsilon subunit of the bacterial F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase sandwiched by the cyan- and yellow-fluorescent proteins. The indicators, named ATeams, had apparent dissociation constants for ATP ranging from 7.4 muM to 3.3 mM. By targeting ATeams to different subcellular compartments, we unexpectedly found that ATP levels in the mitochondrial matrix of HeLa cells are significantly lower than those of cytoplasm and nucleus. We also succeeded in measuring changes in the ATP level inside single HeLa cells after treatment with inhibitors of glycolysis and/or oxidative phosphorylation, revealing that glycolysis is the major ATP-generating pathway of the cells grown in glucose-rich medium. This was also confirmed by an experiment using oligomycin A, an inhibitor of F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase. In addition, it was demonstrated that HeLa cells change ATP-generating pathway in response to changes of nutrition in the environment.

      F1-ATPase is the smallest known rotary motor, and it rotates in an anticlockwise direction as it hydrolyses ATP. Single-molecule experiments point towards three catalytic events per turn, in agreement with the molecular structure of the complex. The physiological function of F1 is ATP synthesis. In the ubiquitous F0F1 complex, this energetically uphill reaction is driven by F0, the partner motor of F1, which forces the backward (clockwise) rotation of F1, leading to ATP synthesis. Here, we have devised an experiment combining single-molecule manipulation and microfabrication techniques to measure the yield of this mechanochemical transformation. Single F1 molecules were enclosed in femtolitre-sized hermetic chambers and rotated in a clockwise direction using magnetic tweezers. When the magnetic field was switched off, the F1 molecule underwent anticlockwise rotation at a speed proportional to the amount of synthesized ATP. At 10 Hz, the mechanochemical coupling efficiency was low for the alpha3beta3gamma subcomplex (F1-epsilon)), but reached up to 77% after reconstitution with the epsilon-subunit (F1+epsilon)). We provide here direct evidence that F1 is designed to tightly couple its catalytic reactions with the mechanical rotation. Our results suggest that the epsilon-subunit has an essential function during ATP synthesis.

      F-1 enzyme is known as the world smallest rotary motor, but its real biological function, namely the synthesis of ATP, has remained elusive. We describe the use of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) micrometer chamber arrays for the single molecule study of the efficiency of this molecular motor/generator. The patterned PDMS device allowed the enclosing of extremely small volumes of water solution. This packing was stable and tight. In this unprecedently small volumes (fL), activity of a unique enzyme results in rapid detectable (mu M) changes in the concentration of its substrates and products. We employed this technique to follow directly for the first time the ATP consumption of F-1 as it produces mechanical work. As expected, the enzyme was found to function with a yield close to 100%. We then turned to the ATP-generating role of F1. We attached a magnetic bead to the protein and used magnetic tweezers to force backward rotations of the enzyme. In the presence of ADP and Pi, we could detect the synthesis of ATP upon mechanical rotation at 10 Hz. As all the system was trapped in a very small volumes this ATP could not diffuse and F-1 itself served as a probe to measure the amount of produced ATP. The mechanochemical coupling was found very tight.

      Planar bilayer membranes have been widely used for electrophysiological analysis of membrane proteins in laboratories. We previously reported that planar lipid bilayer can be reconstituted at 100 similar to 150 mu m tapered hole fabricated in a silicon-based micro-fluidic channel system. However, for the measurement of ion channel current, which requires pico-ampere sensitivity, the substrate material should be non-conductive material to eliminate the electric noise. Thus, we fabricated PMMA plastic based micro-fluidic system made by precise machining. The activity of channel proteins incorporated into the planar membrane is successfully recorded.

      A planar lipid bilayer which is widely used for the electrophysiological study of membrane proteins in laboratories is reconstituted using a micro-fluidic system, in a manner that is suitable for automated processing. We fabricated micro-channels on both sides of the substrate, which are connected through a 100-200 microm aperture, and showed that the bilayer can be formed at the aperture by flowing the lipid solution and buffer, alternately. Parylene coating is found to be suitable for both bilayer formation and electric noise reduction. Future applications include a high-sensitivity ion sensor chip and a high-throughput drug screening device.

      We report the novel methods to reconstitute artificial lipid membranes in an array on a chip, using the micro-fluidic system, for the batch analysis of membrane proteins. The micro-fabricated device should render the ease of injection/recirculation of the reagents as well as multi-channel and high-sensitive detection of protein activities incorporated in the bilayer membrane. It is shown that the lipid bilayer membrane can be formed on 100 similar to 200 mum square apertures fabricated in a silicon substrate in two methods. In the first method, the bilayer is formed by flowing the lipid solution and the buffer alternately. In the second method, it is done by placing a buffer droplet on a thin layer of the lipid solution. Parylene coating is found to be suitable for both bilayer formation and noise reduction. The future application includes the high-sensitive ion sensor chip and high-throughput drug screening chip.

      Except for the case of gradual activation of EF(1) (F-1-ATPase from Escherichia coli) caused by the dissociation of the epsilon subunit [Laget, P.P. and Smith, J.B. (1979) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 197, 83-89], EF(1) has long been thought not to show a time-dependent change in activity [Senior, A.E. et al. (1992) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 297, 340-344]. Here, we report the time-dependent inactivation and activation of EF(1), which are apparently similar to those of mitochondrial F-1-ATPases [Vasilyeva, E.A. et al, (1982) Biochem. J. 202, 15-23]. Analysis of these changes as a function of ATP concentrations in relation to negative cooperativity revealed that the initial inactivation phase was attributable to the decrease in the V-max associated with the low K-m (around 10 mu M), and the following activation, probably due to the dissociation of the epsilon subunit, corresponded to the increase in the V-max associated with the high K-m (in the order of 100 mu M). Thus, the time-dependent change in EF(1) activity is closely related to the apparent negative cooperativity (multiple K-m values) of ATP hydrolysis.

      ATP合成酵素の部分複合体であり、α_3β_3γεというサブユニット組成を持つF_1-ATPaseには、3つずつあるαとβに1つずつ、合計6カ所のATP結合部位が存在することが知られている。このうちのβサブユニットにあるATP結合部位が、ATP合成、加水分解の触媒部位である。これまでに、F_1-ATPaseのその他のサブユニットにATPが結合するという報告はない。
      本年度私は、好熱菌由来のF_1-ATPase(TF_1)のεサブユニットにATPが結合することを見出した。εサブユニット単独で大量発現させ調製した標品を用いて実験を行った。εサブユニットとATPの結合は強く、両者の複合体をゲル濾過HPLCで単離することができた。加えるATPの量を変化させ、結合の量比を見積もったところ、1:1の結合であった。ATPの代わりにADPを用いると結合は見られなかった。また結合の特異性は高く、GTPなどATP以外のヌクレオチド三リン酸は結合しなかった。
      ATP合成酵素複合体やその部分複合体であるF_1-ATPaseに含まれるεサブユニットへのATPの結合はαサブユニットやβサブユニットへの結合と区別することが困難で、現在までには確認できていない。
      もしεサブユニットへのATPの結合が、ATP合成酵素複合体中でも起こるものであれば、εサブユニットによる活性制御と直接関与する重要なものと考えられる。
