Measurement of intracellular (compartmental) pH by 31P NMR in Aspergillus niger.

Abstract:

:31P nuclear magnetic resonance (31P NMR) was used to monitor cytoplasmic and vacuolar pH values in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger. To obtain a homogeneous cell sample and to be able to perform long term in vivo NMR measurements A. niger mycelium was kept in a setup that allows perfusion of the cell plug within the NMR tube. Mycelial samples, however, became rapidly clogged during perfusion leading to (partial) anaerobiosis of the plug with subsequent acidification of the cytoplasm. As a result, only short-term NMR measurements (5-10 min) were possible using free mycelium. To increase and to prolong perfusion, A. niger was immobilized in Ca(2+)-alginate beads. Deteriorated spectra recorded under hypoxia could be completely restored in the presence of oxygen. With this system perfusion in the presence of citrate could be maintained for at least 18 h at much higher rates (15 ml min-1 compared with 4 ml min-1 for free mycelium). During this period 31P NMR spectra were highly invariable, indicating approximate steady-state intracellular conditions during long term measurements. Perfusion in the presence of glucose resulted in complete depletion of the vacuolar inorganic phosphate pool within 45 min and yielded a higher pH gradient over the tonoplast than when citrate was used (delta pH = 1.6 and 1.4, respectively).
