Abstract:

Plants synthesize a diversity of volatile molecules that are important for reproduction and defense, serve as practical products for humans, and influence atmospheric chemistry and climate. Despite progress in deciphering plant volatile biosynthesis, their release from the cell has been poorly understood. The default assumption has been that volatiles passively diffuse out of cells. By characterization of aPetunia hybridaadenosine triphosphate–binding cassette (ABC) transporter, PhABCG1, we demonstrate that passage of volatiles across the plasma membrane relies on active transport.PhABCG1down-regulation by RNA interference results in decreased emission of volatiles, which accumulate to toxic levels in the plasma membrane. This study provides direct proof of a biologically mediated mechanism of volatile emission.

Abstract:

Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) play a key role in the olfactory system and are essential for mating and oviposition host selection. Tirathaba rufivena, a serious lepidopterous insect pest of the palm area in recent years, has threatened cultivations of Areca catechu in Hainan. Female-biased odorant-binding protein 4 of T. rufivena (TrufOBP4) expression was hypothesized to participate in the process of oviposition host recognition and localization. In this study, we cloned and analyzed the cDNA sequence of TrufOBP4. The predicted mature protein TrufOBP4 is a small, soluble, secretory protein and belongs to a classic OBP subfamily. Fluorescence binding assay results showed that TrufOBP4 had high binding abilities with the host plant volatiles, octyl methoxycinnamate, dibutyl phthalate, myristic acid and palmitic acid. These four components tend to dock in the same binding pocket based on the molecular docking result. The interactions and contributions of key amino acid residues were also characterized. This research provides evidence that TrufOBP4 might participate in the chemoreception of volatile compounds from inflorescences of A. catechu and can contribute to the integrated management of T. rufivena.

Abstract:

Background Volatile general anesthetics (VAs) have a number of synaptic actions, one of which is to inhibit excitatory neurotransmitter release; however, no presynaptic VA binding proteins have been identified. Genetic data in Caenorhabditis elegans have led to the hypothesis that a protein that interacts with the presynaptic protein syntaxin 1A is a VA target. Motivated by this hypothesis, the authors measured the ability of syntaxin 1A and proteins that interact with syntaxin to bind to halothane and isoflurane. Methods Recombinant rat syntaxin 1A, SNAP-25B, VAMP2, and the ternary SNARE complex that they form were tested. Binding of VAs to these proteins was detected by F-nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation measurements. Structural alterations in the proteins were examined by circular dichroism and ability to form complexes. Results Volatile anesthetics did not bind to VAMP2. At concentrations in the clinical range, VAs did bind to SNAP-25B; however, binding was detected only in preparations containing SNAP-25B homomultimers. VAs also bound at clinical concentrations to both syntaxin and the SNARE complex. Addition of an N-terminal His6 tag to syntaxin abolished its ability to bind VAs despite normal secondary structure and ability to form SNARE complexes; thrombin cleavage of the tag restored VA binding. Thus, the VA binding site(s) has structural requirements and is not simply any alpha-helical bundle. VAs at supraclinical concentrations produced an increase in helicity of the SNARE complex; otherwise, VA binding produced no gross alteration in the stability or secondary structure of the SNARE complex. Conclusion SNARE proteins are potential synaptic targets of volatile anesthetics.

Abstract:

Odorant binding proteins play a key role in the olfactory system and are involved in the odor perception and discrimination of insects. To investigate the potential physiological functions of SaveOBP9 in Sitobion avenae, fluorescence ligand binding experiments, molecular docking, RNA interference, and behavioral tests were performed. Fluorescence binding assay results showed that SaveOBP9 had broad and high (Ki < 10 μM) binding abilities with most of the wheat volatiles, but was more obvious at pH 7.4 than pH 5.0. The binding sites of SaveOBP9 to the volatiles were predicted well by three-dimensional docking structure modeling and molecular docking. Moreover, S. avenae showed a strong behavioral response with the four compounds of wheat. The reduction in mRNA transcript levels after the RNA interference significantly reduced the expression level of SaveOBP9 and induced the non-significant response of S. avenae to the tetradecane, octanal, decanal, and hexadecane. This study provides evidence that SaveOBP9 might be involved in the chemoreception of wheat volatile organic compounds and can successfully contribute in the integrated management programs of S. avenae.

Abstract:

Background Ca2+ plays an important role in signal transduction and anesthetic mechanisms. To date, no one has observed a direct effect of volatile anesthetics on a Ca(2+)-binding protein. We therefore examined the effects of halothane and isoflurane on the Ca(2+)-binding properties of bovine brain calmodulin. Methods The fluorescence emission of calmodulin was obtained over a range of Ca2+ concentrations (10(-7)-10(-4)M) in the presence and absence of halothane and isoflurane. The intrinsic tyrosine fluorescence of calmodulin was measured at an excitation wavelength of 280 nm and an emission wavelength of 320 nm. Fluorescence measurements were carried out in 50 mM hydroxyethylpiperazineethane sulfonic acid, 100 mM KC1, and 2 mM ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-aminoethyl ether) tetraacetic acid at pH 7.0 and 37 degrees C. Experiments were performed in polytetrafluorethylene-sealed cuvettes so that the volatile anesthetic concentrations remained constant. The titration data were analyzed in two ways. The data were fit to the Hill equation by using nonlinear regression analysis to derive the Hill coefficient and the dissociation constant. The data were also analyzed by two-way analysis of variance with multiple comparisons to determine statistically significant effects. Volatile anesthetic concentrations were measured by gas chromatography. Results The presence of volatile anesthetics altered the Ca(2+)-binding affinity of calmodulin in a dose-dependent fashion. At 0.57% (0.25 mM) halothane and 1.7% (0.66 mM) isoflurane, the affinity of calmodulin for Ca2+ relative to control was decreased. However, at higher concentrations of both anesthetics, the affinity for Ca2+ was increased. When the volatile anesthetics were allowed to evaporate from the experimental solutions, the observed rightward shift of the calmodulin-Ca2+ binding curve for Ca2+ at low concentrations of the anesthetics returned to the control position. The leftward shift seen at high concentrations of the anesthetics was irreversible after evaporation of 8.7% (3.3 mM) isoflurane and 5.7% (2.5 mM) halothane. Conclusions These data demonstrate a complex interaction of two hydrophobic volatile anesthetics with calmodulin. A biphasic effect was observed both for halothane and for isoflurane. Calmodulin, an EF-hand Ca(2+)-binding protein, undergoes a conformational shift when binding Ca2+, exposing several hydrophobic residues. These residues may be sites at which the anesthetics act.

Abstract:

Endoclita signifer larvae show olfactory recognition towards volatiles of eucalyptus trunks and humus soils. Further, EsigGOBP1 was identified through larval head transcriptome and speculated as the main odorant-binding proteins in E. signifer larvae. In this study, the highest expression of EsigGOBP1 was only expressed in the heads of 3rd instar larvae of E. signifer, compared with the thorax and abdomen; this was consistent with the phenomenon of habitat transfer of 3rd instar larvae, indicating that EsigGOBP1 was a key OBP gene in E. signifer larvae. Results of fluorescence competition binding assays (FCBA) showed that EsigGOBP1 had high binding affinities to eight GC-EAD active ligands. Furthermore, screening of key active odorants for EsigGOBP1 and molecular docking analysis, indicated that EsigGOBP1 showed high binding activity to alpha-phellandrene in 3rd instar larvae of E. signifer. Conformational analysis of the EsigGOBP1-alpha-phellandrene complex, showed that MET49 and GLU38 were the key sites involved in binding. These results demonstrated that EsigGOBP1 is a key odorant-binding protein in E. signifer larvae, which recognizes and transports eight key volatiles from eucalyptus trunk, especially the main eucalyptus trunks volatile, alpha-phellandrene. Taken together, our results showed that EsigGOBP1 is involved in host selection of E. signifer larvae, which would aid in developing EsigGOBP1 as molecular targets for controlling pests at the larval stage.

Abstract:

Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are thought to transport volatile compounds from air to their receptors through the sensillary lymph. In this protein family, the subgroup of pheromone-binding proteins (PBPs) is specifically tuned to the perception of the sexual pheromone. To date, the description of OBPs has been restricted to Endopterygota and Paraneoptera. Their expression in Orthopteroid has been hypothesized, but no evidence of OBP has been produced in this assemblage to date. In the present study, we describe the first OBP from a Dictyopteran insect that belongs to the cockroach Leucophaea maderae. The PBP of L. maderae (PBPLma) shares all the hallmarks of the OBP family and is expressed specifically in the female adult antennae, the sex that perceives the sexual pheromone. The affinity of the recombinant PBPLma produced in the Escherichia coli periplasm for the pheromonal compounds has been tested by displacement of a fluorophore, 8-anilino-1-naphtalenesulphonic acid (ANS). Our results suggest that two chemically close compounds of the pheromonal blend (3-hydroxy-butan-2-one and butane-2,3-diol) are capable of displacing ANS, whereas two other pheromone components (E-2-octenoic acid and senecioic acid) and other alkyl volatile compounds are not capable of displacing ANS, indicating a certain filtering of binding, which can be correlated with the putative function.

Abstract:

Pretreating `Victory Parade' potted miniature roses (Rosa hybrida L.) with photolyzed diazocyclopentadiene (DACP) inhibited the effects of exogenous ethylene (acceleration of leaf and bud drop). In an ethylene-free simulated interior environment, display life of the treated plants was also greater than that of the controls and similar to that of plants pretreated with the anionic silver thiosulfate complex (STS). DACP caused an increase in the binding constant for ethylene in petals and leaves of `Victory Parade' and `Cara Mia' (a cut-flower rose cultivar). Competitive kinetics for the effects of increasing ethylene concentrations on control and DACP-treated plants are consistent with the hypothesis that the effects of DACP are due to irreversible binding to the ethylene-binding site.

Abstract:

Holotrichia parallela is one of the agriculturally important scarab beetle pests in China. In this study, HparOBP14 was cloned, which is the most abundantly expressed among the OBP genes in the legs of female H. parallela adults. Sequence comparison and phylogenetic analysis showed that HparOBP14 has a Plus-C structure motif. The expression profile analysis revealed that HparOBP14 expression was the highest in the female antennae and then in the legs. The fluorescence competitive binding experiment of the recombinant HparOBP14 protein showed that HparOBP14 had an affinity with 6-methyl-5-heptene-2-one (plant volatile), 3-methylindole, p-cymene, methanol, formaldehyde, α-pinene, and geraniol (organic fertilizer volatile). Knockdown HparOBP14 expression decreased significantly the EAG response of the injected female adults to p-cymene, methanol, formaldehyde, α-pinene, and geraniol. Similarly, the injected female adults were significantly less attracted to geraniol and methanol. Therefore, HparOBP14 might bind organic matter volatiles during oviposition. These results are not only helpful to analyze the olfactory recognition mechanism of female adult H. parallela when choosing suitable oviposition sites, but also to provide target genes for green prevention and control of H. parallela in the future.

Abstract:

A comparative study of volatile constituents, antioxidant activity, and molecular docking was conducted between essential oils from Mentha longifolia L., Mentha spicata L., and Origanum majorana L., widely cultivated in Madinah. The investigation of volatile oils extracted by hydrodistillation was performed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). A total number of 29, 42, and 29 components were identified in M. longifolia, M. spicata, and O. majorana representing, respectively, 95.91, 94.62, and 98.42, of the total oils. Pulegone (38.42%), 1,8-cineole (15.60%), menthone (13.20%), and isopulegone (9.81%) were the dominant compounds in M. longifolia oil; carvone (35.14%), limonene (27.11%), germacrene D (4.73%), and β-caryophyllene (3.02%) were dominant in M. spicata oil; terpin-4-ol (42.47%), trans-sabinene hydrate (8.52%), γ-terpinene (7.90%), α-terpineol (7.38%), linalool (6.35%), α-terpinene (5.42%), and cis-sabinene hydrate (3.14%) were dominant in O. majorana oil. The antioxidant activity, assessed using DPPH free radical–scavenging and ABTS assays, was found to be the highest in O. majorana volatile oil, followed by M. spicata and M. longifolia, which is consistent with the differences in total phenolic content and volatile constituents identified in investigated oils. In the same context, molecular docking of the main identified volatiles on NADPH oxidase showed a higher binding affinity for cis-verbenyl acetate, followed by β-elemene and linalool, compared to the control (dextromethorphan). These results prove significant antioxidant abilities of the investigated oils, which may be considered for further analyses concerning the control of oxidative stress, as well as for their use as possible antioxidant agents in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract:

Abstract Olfaction is of great significance for insect mate-seeking and host-locating behaviors. Insect odorant-binding proteins (OBPs), especially those antenna-enriched OBPs, are thought to discriminate, capture and transport odorant molecules to olfactory receptors, but this has not been fully clarified in Bactrocera minax (Enderlein), an economically important pest of citrus crops. Our previous studies showed that seven OBP genes (BminOBP1-7) were identified from B. minax adults via a head transcriptome analysis, of which only BminOBP3 and 6 were highly expressed in antennae, suggesting an olfactory role. To confirm their functions, here, BminOBP3 and 6 were cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli cells. Binding properties of the recombinant BminOBPs with 13 volatiles, most of which can elicit a significant behavioral response from B. minax adults, were determined by fluorescent competitive binding assays. The results showed that Both BminOBP3 and 6 exhibited a remarkable selectivity towards the 13 ligands tested. BminOBP3 displayed strong binding affinity only with undecanol. BminOBP6 demonstrated strong binding affinity with undecanol and limonene among 13 ligands tested. Undecanol is believed to be main sex pheromone component of B. minax. Limonene is an important volatile compound enriched in citrus fruits. Taken together, we concluded that BminOBP3 and 6 may play a prominent role in the process of B. minax mate-seeking and host-locating behaviors through recognizing and transporting these volatiles. It is conceivable that this study will increase our molecular understanding of B. minax olfaction, facilitating the development of OBP-based behavioral interference that is potentially useful for the integrated management of B. minax.

Abstract:

In recent years, there has been increased interest in the mechanisms involved in anaesthetic-induced cardioprotection. It is not thoroughly understood how volatile anaesthetics protect the myocardium from ischaemia or reperfusion injury, but the overall mechanism is likely to be multifactorial. This review examines the recent experimental and clinical research underlying the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in anaesthetic-induced preconditioning. A variety of intracellular signalling pathways have been implicated in the protective phenomenon. Ischaemic preconditioning and anaesthetic-induced preconditioning share similar molecular mechanisms, including activation of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins, triggering of second messenger pathways, activation of multiple kinases, mediation of nitric oxide formation and reactive oxygen species release, maintenance of intracellular and/or mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis and moderation of the opening of adenosine-triphosphate-sensitive potassium channels. A more thorough understanding of the multiple signalling steps and the ultimate cytoprotective mechanisms underlying anaesthetic-induced preconditioning may lead to improvements in the management of ischaemia and/or reperfusion injury.

Abstract:

: The whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, is an important invasive economic pest of agricultural crops worldwide. β-ionone has a significant oviposition repellent effect against B. tabaci, but the olfactory molecular mechanism of this insect for recognizing β-ionone is unclear. To clarify the binding properties of odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) with β-ionone, we performed gene cloning, evolution analysis, bacterial expression, fluorescence competitive binding assay, and molecular docking to study the binding function of OBP1 and OBP4 on β-ionone. The results showed that after the OBP1 and OBP4 proteins were recombined, the compound β-ionone exhibited a reduction in the fluorescence binding affinity to <50%, with a dissociation constant of 5.15 and 3.62 μM for OBP1 and OBP4, respectively. Our data indicate that β-ionone has high affinity for OBP1 and OBP4, which play a crucial role in the identification of oviposition sites in B. tabaci. The findings of this study suggest that whiteflies employ β-ionone compound in the selection of the suitable egg-laying sites on host plants during the oviposition behavior.

Abstract:

Volatile organosulfur compounds are the main components that contribute to the unique aroma of dried Lentinula edodes. They are mainly generated during the hot-air drying process, and cysteine desulfurase is the key enzyme in this process. Temperature may be an essential factor of volatile organosulfur compound production by influencing the expression of the cysteine desulfurase gene. In this study, the promoter sequence of the cysteine desulfurase gene (pCS) was cloned and analyzed using bioinformatics tools. A series of 5′deletion fragments and site-directed mutations of pCS were constructed to identify the element that responds to heat stress. Six heat shock transcription factor (HSTF) binding sites were predicted by SCPD (The Promoter Database of Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and three of the binding sites were predicted by Yeastract (Yeast Search for Transcriptional Regulators and Consensus Tracking) in pCS. The results indicated that pCS was able to drive the expression of the EGFP (Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein) gene in L. edodes. Moreover, the fluorescence intensity increased after heat stress. The changes in fluorescence intensity of different 5′deletion fragments showed that the heat response region was located between −500 bp and −400 bp in pCS. The site-directed mutation analysis further showed that the heat-inducible element was between −490 bp and −500 bp (TTTCTAGAAT) in pCS. Our results provide molecular insight for studying the formation of volatile organosulfur compounds in dried L. edodes.
