Abstract:
:In an effort to understand the biochemical mechanisms of aluminum-induced neurotoxicity, we investigated the effects of aluminum ion, Al3+, on the Mg(2+)- and nucleotide-dependent protein, ras p21. Picomolar Al3+ concentrations inhibited the GTPase activity of ras p21 in an Mg(2+)-dependent manner, consistent with an Al3+/Mg2+ competition mechanism. GTPase activity was inhibited by 60% in the presence of 100 microM Mg2+ and 2.9 x 10(-10) M Al3+. Kinetic studies demonstrated that the mode of Al(3+)-induced inhibition of ras p21 GTPase activity changed from competitive to mixed non-competitive as the number of ras p21 turnovers increased. Further dissection of the ras p21 cycle revealed that Mg(2+)-dependent GDP/GTP exchange was the Al(3+)-sensitive step.
