Identification of nitrated tyrosine residues of protein kinase G-Iα by mass spectrometry

The nitration of tyrosine to 3-nitrotyrosine is an oxidative modification of tyrosine by nitric oxide and is associated with many diseases, and targeting of protein kinase G (PKG)-I represents a potential therapeutic strategy for pulmonary hypertension and chronic pain. The direct assignment of tyrosine residues of PKG-I has remained to be made due to the low sensitivity of the current proteomic approach. In order to assign modified tyrosine residues of PKG-I, we nitrated purified PKG-Iα expressed in insect Sf9 cells by use of peroxynitrite in vitro and analyzed the trypsin-digested fragments by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Among the 21 tyrosine residues of PKG-Iα, 16 tyrosine residues were assigned in 13 fragments; and six tyrosine residues were nitrated, those at Y71, Y141, Y212, Y336, Y345, and Y567, in the peroxynitrite-treated sample. Single mutation of tyrosine residues at Y71, Y212, and Y336 to phenylalanine significantly reduced the nitration of PKG-Iα; and four mutations at Y71, Y141, Y212, and Y336 (Y4F mutant) reduced it additively. PKG-Iα activity was inhibited by peroxynitrite in a concentration-dependent manner from 30 μM to 1 mM, and this inhibition was attenuated in the Y4F mutant. These results demonstrated that PKG-Iα was nitrated at multiple tyrosine residues and that its activity was reduced by nitration of these residues.     

Mass spectrometry analysis of in vitro nitration of a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody

Nitration of a recombinant human monoclonal antibody was carried out in vitro by incubating the antibody with the nitrating reagent tetranitromethane (TNM). The susceptible sites of nitration were identified using high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS). In general, tyrosine residues in the variable domains of the antibody are more susceptible to nitration, while tyrosine residues in the constant domains are relatively resistant to nitration. However, one tyrosine residue in the CH1 domain and one tyrosine residue in the CH2 domain are highly susceptible to nitration. Interestingly, the susceptible tyrosine residue in the CH2 domain is followed by the conserved asparagine residue that is glycosylated.     

Photophysical properties of tyrosine and its simple derivatives in organic solvents studied by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and global analysis

Photophysical properties of tyrosine and its derivatives with free and blocked functional groups were studied by steady state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and global analysis in organic solvents, such as methanol, 2-propanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF), and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The mono-exponential fluorescence intensity decays were observed for all tyrosine derivatives in THF and DMSO solutions, whereas in alcohols some derivatives have bi-exponential decays. The rotamer population calculated from 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in DMSO does not correspond to the pre-exponential factors obtained from fluorescence spectroscopy. Moreover in the case of DMSO, the strong interaction of this solvent with the hydroxyl group of the fluorophore's phenol ring causes substantial changes in the fluorescence and nonradiative rate constants of tyrosine derivatives compared with those of tyrosine with a blocked hydroxyl group, Tyr(Me). The steady state and time-resolved fluorescence measurements in pure organic solvents and water-organic solvent mixtures indicate that the fluorescence quenching of the phenol chromophore of tyrosine by an acetyl or amide group or both depends on the polarity of the solvent used as well as the ability of the solvent to form hydrogen bonds with functional groups of tyrosine.     

Probing biocatalytic transformations with CdSe-ZnS QDs

CdSe/ZnS QDs enable the optical probing of the biocatalytic oxidation of tyrosine derivatives and of the scission of peptides by thrombin. CdSe/ZnS QDs were modified with tyrosine methyl ester or with a tyrosine-containing peptide. The tyrosine units were reacted with tyrosinase/O2 to yield the respective l-DOPA and quinone derivatives. The luminescence of QDs modified by the enzyme-generated quinone units is quenched. The quinone-functionalized peptide associated with the QDs was cleaved by thrombin, a process that restored the luminescence of the QDs.     

Expression of the small tyrosine phosphatase (Stp1) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: a study on protein tyrosine phosphorylation

Small tyrosine phoshatase 1 (Stp1) is a Schizosaccharomyces pombe low-molecular-mass phosphotyrosine-phosphatase 50% identical to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ltp1. In order to investigate the role of Stp1 in yeast, a mutant was generated having the characteristic of a dominant negative molecule. Changes in protein tyrosine phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae proteome in response to Stp1 or its dominant negative mutant expression were analyzed by high-resolution two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis. The most remarkable result is the modification by phosphorylation on tyrosine of several proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Twelve proteins were identified on the basis of their positions in the anti-phosphotyrosine immunoblot of the 2-D electrophoresis. Ten of these present tyrosyl residues that are within the consensus sequence for protein kinase CK2 (casein kinase-2). These data open the possibility for the identification of Stp1 substrates in yeast and provide hints about the nature of tyrosine phosphorylating agents in yeast and in other organisms where bona fide tyrosine kinases are lacking.     

Pincer ligands based on α-amino acids: V. New generation chiral receptors for the recognition of amino acid enantiomers in aqueous environment

Selective recognition of enantiomers of amino acids valine, methionine, phenylalanine, serine, and tyrosine by a binuclear copper complex with an azomethine obtained from 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and L-valine was studied by means of spectrophotometry. The binding constants of individual enentiomers were estimated for valine, phenylalanine, methionine, serine, and tyrosine, and the enantioselectivity factors were evaluated. The isomers of serine and tyrosine (with respect to the first stage) were recognized with a considerable enantioselectivity (1.34 and 5.46 respectively), whereas the binding constants of valine and phenylalanine enantiomers are virtually indistinguishable.     

Negative regulation of a protein tyrosine phosphatase by tyrosine phosphorylation

The low molecular weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (LMW-PTP) is a ubiquitously expressed enzyme with several proposed roles in cell signaling. Previously, two tyrosine phosphorylation modifications of LMW-PTP at sites Tyr-131 and Tyr-132 in response to growth factor stimulation have been mapped and suggested to stimulate LMW-PTP phosphatase activity. Biochemical analysis of tyrosine phosphorylation of a tyrosine phosphatase is challenging because of the intrinsic instability of these modifications. Here we used expressed protein ligation to site-specifically incorporate a phosphotyrosine mimic (phosphonomethylenephenylalanine, Pmp) at the Tyr-131 and Tyr-132 positions and measured the catalytic activity of these semisynthetic LMW-PTPs. The phosphonate-modified LMW-PTPs were 10- to 23-fold less active in dephosphorylating phosphotyrosine peptides derived from the PDGF receptor and p190RhoGap, two putative cellular substrates. These findings suggest the first example of a tyrosine phosphatase that is inhibited by tyrosine phosphorylation and provide a new model for the regulation of LMW-PTP and its role in cell adhesion.     

RELATIVE CONTRIBUTIONS OF TRYPTOPHAN and TYROSINE TO THE PHOSPHORESCENCE EMISSION OF HUMAN SERUM ALBUMIN AT LOW TEMPERATURES

Abstract— Phosphorescence emission and excitation spectra, as well as decay profiles of human serum albumin, were investigated in the wavelength regions of the tryptophan and tyrosine absorption and emission spectra in potassium phosphate buffer at 77 K. Emission and excitation spectra were found to be linear superpositions of the contributions of the tryptophan and tyrosine residues. It is suggested, therefore, that there is no significant tyrosine to tryptophan energy transfer in this protein at low temperature. The phosphorescence decay is, in general, multiexponential with lifetime components of 5.95, 2.7, and 1.2 s. The longest lifetime is characteristic of tryptophan, whereas the two short components are attributed to two types of tyrosine residues located in different environments within the protein. The latter is confirmed by a detailed analysis of the phosphorescence decay profiles determined at different emission wavelengths, and utilizing different wavelengths of excitation favoring either the tryptophan or tyrosine residues.

Alkaloid production by callous tissue cultures of Cereus peruvianus (Cactaceae)

The morphologically undifferentiated cells of nonregenerant callous tissue of Cereus peruvianus cultured in the original medium and in medium supplemented with tyrosine were used as an alkaloid source. Comparison of alkaloid production by C. peruvianus plants and by callous tissues indicated that alkaloid levels were almost twice as high in callous tissues as in shoots of C. peruvianus plants. The ratio of alkaloid concentration between mature plant and morphologically und ifferentiated cells of callous tissue was 1∶1.7. A relationship between culture medium containing tyrosine and alkaloid production was also observed in the callous tissues of C. peruvianus. Since increased alkaloid production may be induced by additional factors such as tyrosine, increasing levels of tyrosine or other conditions of the culture medium may be considered factors for inducing higher alkaloid production by C. peruvianus callous tissues.
