Plasminogen activation is stimulated by prion protein and regulated in a copper-dependent manner.

Abstract：

:Prion diseases are associated with the conversion of the normal prion protein, PrP(C), to the infectious disease form PrP(Sc). Discrimination between these isoforms would significantly enhance diagnosis of these diseases, and it has recently been reported that PrP(Sc) is specifically recognized by the serine protease zymogen plasminogen (Fischer et al. (2000) Nature 408, 479). Here we have tested the hypothesis that PrP is a regulator of the plasminogen activation system. The effect of recombinant PrP, either containing copper (holo-PrP) or devoid of it (apo-PrP), on plasminogen activation by both uPA and tPA was determined. PrP had no effect on plasminogen activation by uPA. By contrast, the activity of tPA was stimulated by up to 280-fold. This was observed only with the apo-PrP isoforms. The copper-binding octapeptide repeat region of PrP was involved in the effects, as a mutant lacking this region failed to stimulate plasminogen activation, although a synthetic peptide corresponding to this region was unable to stimulate tPA activity. Competition experiments demonstrated that, in addition to plasminogen binding, the stimulation required a high-affinity interaction between tPA and PrP (K(d) < 2.5 nM). Kinetic analysis revealed a template mechanism for the stimulation, suggesting independent binding sites for tPA and plasminogen. Lack of copper-binding may be an early event in the conversion of PrP(C) to PrP(Sc), and our data therefore suggest that tPA-catalyzed plasminogen activation may provide the basis for a sensitive detection system for the early stages of prion diseases and also play a role in the pathogenesis of these diseases.

  • Site-directed mutagenesis of tyrosine-71 to phenylalanine in Citrobacter freundii tyrosine phenol-lyase: evidence for dual roles of tyrosine-71 as a general acid catalyst in the reaction mechanism and in cofactor binding.

    abstract：:Tyr71 is an invariant residue in all known sequences of tyrosine phenol-lyase (TPL). The substitution of Tyr71 in TPL by phenylalanine results in a mutant Y71F TPL with no detectable activity (greater than 3 x 10(5)-fold reduction) for beta-elimination of L-tyrosine. Y71F TPL can react with S-alkylcysteines, but these...
