Zinc-Α2-Glycoprotein Is an Inhibitor of Amine Oxidase
1 Supplemental Fig. 1 and 2 of “ZINC-α2-GLYCOPROTEIN IS AN INHIBITOR OF AMINE 2 OXIDASE COPPER-CONTAINING 3”, Matthias Romauch 3 Plasma enhances AOC3 activity 4 Endogenous plasma amine oxidase activity has previously been described in both human and 5 mouse plasma [1–3]. This activity derives from membrane-bound AOC3 which has been 6 released by metalloprotease activity [4]. A pronounced increase in levels of cleaved AOC3 is 7 observed during diabetes, congestive heart failure and liver cirrhosis [5–7]. Incubating 8 recombinant AOC3 with IEX fractions lacking ZAG (Fig. 4, B) increased amine oxidase 9 activity, which might be due to plasma-derived AOC3 activity or other plasma components. 10 To test this hypothesis, the amine oxidase activity in plasma of wt, AOC3 k.o. and ZAG k.o. 11 mice was measured directly using radioactive benzylamine as substrate. The activity linearly 12 increased with measured plasma volume of wt and ZAG k.o. mice, and the activity could be 13 blocked by the highly selective AOC3 inhibitor LJP1586 (Supplemental Fig. 1, A and B). 14 However, AOC3 activity in AOC3 k.o. plasma does not increase with increasing plasma 15 volume and residual activity cannot be further significantly reduced by adding LJP1586 16 (Supplemental Fig. 1, C). This suggests that AOC3 is the main plasma enzyme responsible for 17 benzylamine deamination, but it does not exclude other amine oxidases that are not sensitive 18 to LJP1586 or that have a higher affinity for other substrates. One such category of enzymes 19 could be the lysyl oxidases, which are also members of the copper amine oxidase family. -

Ferroportin Mutation in Autosomal Dominant Hemochromatosis: Loss of Function, Gain in Understanding
Ferroportin mutation in autosomal dominant hemochromatosis: loss of function, gain in understanding Robert E. Fleming, William S. Sly J Clin Invest. 2001;108(4):521-522. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI13739. Commentary Normal iron homeostasis requires close matching of dietary iron absorption with body iron needs (1). Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), a common abnormality of iron metabolism, is characterized by excess absorption of dietary iron despite elevated stores, and secondary damage to the liver, pancreas, and other organs (2). Classic HH is caused by mutation of the HFE gene and is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. However, a substantial percentage of individuals with hemochromatosis, especially in non–Northern European populations, have no mutations in HFE (3). Many such cases differ from classic HH in the relative distribution of iron between the plasma, hepatocytes, and reticuloendothelial (RE) cells (4). Pietrangelo et al. recently reported a pedigree with atypical hemochromatosis inherited as an autosomal dominant trait (5). In this issue of the JCI, Montosi et al. report the surprising finding that the gene mutated in these patients (SLC11A3) encodes the iron export protein ferroportin1 (also known as IREG1, or MTP1) (6). They conclude that the identified mutation (A77D) probably results in loss of ferroportin1 function, suggesting that the affected individuals are haploinsufficient for this gene product. In a nearly simultaneous report, Njajou et al. (7) describe a similar pedigree with autosomal dominant hemochromatosis and a different missense mutation (N144H) in the same gene. Njajou et al., however, conclude that the iron overload phenotype was likely […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/13739/pdf Ferroportin mutation in autosomal Commentary dominant hemochromatosis: loss See related article, pages 619–623. -

Mutations in the MYO5B Wilson-disease-associated protein ATP7B to the apical domain of human gene lead to microvillus inclusion disease hepatocytes is poorly understood. We demonstrate that myosin Vb (MVID), in which the filamentous actin (F-actin)-rich apical regulates the Cu+-stimulated delivery of ATP7B to the apical domain microvilli of enterocytes are absent, with concomitantly of polarized hepatic cells, and that disruption of the ATP7B-myosin Vb disrupted localization of apical membrane proteins that include interaction reduces the apical surface expression of ATP7B.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -
Geometric and Electronic Structure Differences Between the Type 3 Copper Sites of the Multicopper Oxidases and Hemocyanin/Tyrosinase
Geometric and electronic structure differences between the type 3 copper sites of the multicopper oxidases and hemocyanin/tyrosinase Jungjoo Yoon, Satoshi Fujii1, and Edward I. Solomon2 Department of Chemistry, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-5080 Contributed by Edward I. Solomon, February 25, 2009 (sent for review January 31, 2009) The coupled binuclear ‘‘type 3’’ Cu sites are found in hemocyanin (Hc), tyrosinase (Tyr), and the multicopper oxidases (MCOs), such as laccase (Lc), and play vital roles in O2 respiration. Although all type 3 Cu sites share the same ground state features, those of Hc/Tyr have very different ligand-binding properties relative to those of the MCOs. In particular, the type 3 Cu site in the MCOs (LcT3)isa part of the trinuclear Cu cluster, and if the third (i.e., type 2) Cu is T3 removed, the Lc site does not react with O2. Density functional ؊1 theory calculations indicate that O2 binding in Hc is Ϸ9 kcal mol more favorable than for LcT3. The difference is mostly found in the Ϸ ؊1 total energy difference of the deoxy states ( 7 kcal mol ), where Fig. 1. O2 binding in the type 3 Cu sites of Hc/Tyr and MCOs. the stabilization of deoxy LcT3 derives from its long equilibrium Cu–Cu distance of Ϸ5.5–6.5 Å, relative to Ϸ4.2 Å in deoxy Hc/Tyr. The O2 binding in Hc is driven by the electrostatic destabilization Cu–Cu distance of Ϸ3.6 Å (Fig. 1A) (7, 8, 10). The side-on 2Ϫ of the deoxy Hc site, in which the two Cu(I) centers are kept close geometry promotes a large overlap between the O2 * and the together by the protein for facile 2-electron reduction of O2. -
