Abstract
Pyrularia thionin, isolated from nuts of Pyrularia pubera, is a strongly basic peptide of 47 amino acids. The amino acid sequence and configuration of its four disulfide bonds place this plant peptide, known to be hemolytic, cytotoxic, and neurotoxic, among the thionins. We report and compare several cellular responses mediated by Pyrularia thionin: hemolysis of human erythrocytes, activation of an endogenous phospholipase A2 in Swiss 3T3 cells, cytotoxicity toward HeLa and mouse B16 melanoma cells in culture, viability of rat hepatocytes and lymphocytes measured by trypan blue exclusion, and lethality in mice. Cellular responses related to ion movement include a toxin-mediated influx of Ca2+ into mouse P388 cells measured by Fura-2 fluorescence, depolarization of mouse P388 plasma membrane measured by fluorescence of bis(1,3-diethylthiobarbituric acid)trimethine oxonol (bisoxonol), and depolarization of frog (Rana pipiens) sartorius muscle determined by direct measurement of membrane potential. Graded iodination of Pyrularia thionin leads to a related loss of activity for hemolysis, phospholipase A2 activation, cytotoxicity, and lethality in mice. The mediated Ca2+ influx into and depolarization of P388 cells require Ca2+ in the external medium and are inhibited by 100 microM Ni2+. Depolarization of sartorius muscle by Pyrularia thionin also requires a functional Ca2+ channel, as shown by verapamil inhibition. This muscle depolarization also involves phospholipase A2 activation because dexamethasone and quinacrin, but not indomethacin, protect against depolarization. The IC50 values for viability of rat hepatocytes and splenic lymphocytes measured by trypan blue exclusion were 0.17 and 40 microM, respectively. The general response of cells to Pyrularia thionin involves a membrane alteration leading to depolarization and a channel-mediated influx of Ca2+. There is a related activation of phospholipase A2 that results in loss of membrane integrity, hemolysis in the case of erythrocytes, and eventually cell death. Iodination of Pyrularia thionin leads to a corresponding inhibition of all three cellular responses, which indicates an essential role for tyrosine in either maintenance of peptide structure or interaction of the peptide with cellular membranes.

Abstract
Pyrularia thionin (P. thionin) is a strongly basic peptide of 47 amino acids which is hemolytic, cytotoxic and neurotoxic. It shows the greatest hemolytic activity toward human erythrocytes. Rabbit, guinea pig and pig erythrocytes show decreasing activity in that order, and little or no activity is shown with sheep, horse, cow or mouse erythrocytes. Crotalus venoms are inactive, but the venoms from Naja naja atra, Naja naja ceylonicus and Naja naja melanoleuca and, more specifically, cardiotoxin from Naja naja kaouthia have significant hemolytic activities toward human erythrocytes. The cardiotoxin preparation used had no phospholipase activity, and was less active than P. thionin (23% compared to 35% hemolysis by P. thionin in 60 min at 10 micrograms/ml toxin). Since iodinated P. thionin is inactive, it was used as an inhibitor of hemolysis catalyzed by native P. thionin, N. ceylonicus venom and by cardiotoxin. Examination of the kinetics of the reactions catalyzed by N. ceylonicus venom and cardiotoxin in the absence and presence of iodinated P. thionin shows that both N. ceylonicus venom and cardiotoxin exhibit Michaelis-Menten kinetics, yielding apparent Km values of 7.4 micrograms/ml and 0.69 microM, respectively. These values compare to an apparent Km for P. thionin of 1.6 microM for erythrocyte hemolysis and a binding constant of 2.1 microM (Osorio e Castro, V. R. Van Kuiken, B. A. and Vernon, L. P. (1989) Action of a thionin isolated from nuts of Pyrularia pubera on human erythrocytes. Toxicon 27, 501). The inhibition constants Ki for iodinated P. thionin in the reactions with N. ceylonicus venom and cardiotoxin are 3.8 and 5.3 microM, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Pyrularia thionin is a strongly basic peptide of 47 amino acids isolated from Pyrularia pubera. This peptide, a member of the thionin family, is hemolytic, cytotoxic and neurotoxic. The characteristics of the hemolytic activity on human erythrocytes are as follows: (1) the peptide does not itself have any phospholipase activity in a micellar assay system with egg yolk phosphatidylcholine, as evidenced by a lack of pH change or uptake of oxygen in the presence of lipoxidase; (2) erythrocyte membranes treated with thionin, however, show a low level of oxygen uptake in the presence of lipoxidase as a consequence of fatty acid release, and this activity is synergistic with that of bee venom phospholipase A2; (3) hemolysis caused by thionin is synergistic with added bee venom phospholipase A2; (4) kinetic analysis of the hemolytic assay reveals that the reaction follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics, being saturable with thionin with a Km of 1.6 microM; (5) binding studies with 125I-thionin show by Scatchard analysis a Kd value of 2.1 microM; (6) although iodinated thionin is inactive in the hemolysis assay, it acts as a competitive inhibitor to native thionin in the hemolytic assay; the inhibitor constant, Ki, for this reaction is 7.0 microM; and (7) Ca2+ above 1 mM inhibits the reaction. All the data are consistent with thionin binding to a receptor, most likely a protein, on the erythrocyte membrane, leading to the release of free fatty acids, most likely by activation of phospholipase A2. The release of fatty acids is itself not sufficient to explain the hemolytic reaction.

Abstract
A small basic peptide with an unusual amino acid composition has been isolated from the seeds of pumpkin, Cucurbita maxima. Amino acid analysis and sequence data show the protein to be about 36 residues in length, with an approximate composition Lys(1), Arg(14), Asp(3), (Glu + Gln)(15), Gly(1), Pro(1), Trp(1). On the basis of composition, the molecular weight is approximately 5000 daltons and the nitrogen content by weight is 20.4%. Twelve amino acids are entirely lacking. The peptide is slightly toxic to mouse B-16 melanoma cells, but its in vivo function is unknown. It does not appear to be derived from cucurbitin, the pumpkin storage globulin; however, it could be a storage peptide involved in nitrogen mobilization during the early stages of germination.

Abstract
Pyrularia thionin is a 47 amino acid basic peptide which resembles wheat purothionin and mistletoe viscotoxin. It is toxic to mice, with an LD50 of 1.5 mg/kg body weight and is cytotoxic to tumor and normal cells in culture, with ID50 values ranging from 0.62 to 17 micrograms/ml. Against seven bacterial species it was toxic only to Micrococcus luteus. The toxin did not protect mice against transplanted B16 melanoma, nor did it show any mitogenic activity with mouse spleen lymphocytes.

Abstract
A low-molecular-weight cytotoxic protein has been purified from Pyrularia pubera Michx. (Santalaceae). By comparison with the behavior of proteins of known molecular weight during Sephadex G-75 gel filtration and denaturing electrophoresis, a molecular weight of somewhat less than 6000 is indicated. Purification involves ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by either gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 or separation on a carboxymethyl cellulose CM52 column. At concentrations of 0.04 mg/ml the protein causes visible disruption of cultured mouse B16 melanoma cells. The complete amino acid sequence has been determined. The toxin contains 47 amino acids arranged as follows:Lys-Ser-Cys-Cys-Arg-Asn-Thr-Trp-Ala-Arg-Asn-C ys-Tyr-Asn-Val-Cys-Arg-Leu-Pro-Gly-Thr-Ile-Ser-Arg-Glu-Ile-Cys-Ala-Lys- Lys-Cys-Asp-Cys-Lys-Ile-Ile-Ser-Gly-Thr-Thr-Cys-Pro-Ser-Asp-Tyr-Pro-Ly s-OH. The protein is clearly a thionin, as shown by its close resemblance to the thionins from wheat and barley, to the viscotoxins from mistletoes, and to crambin.

Abstract
Vesicles prepared with the French press from membranes of cyanelles of Cyanophora paradoxa retain O(2) evolution activity with rates up to 500 micromoles 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol reduced per hour per milligram chlorophyll. This activity is immediately lost when the vesicles are transferred from the sucrose-phosphate-citrate preparation buffer into dilute phosphate buffer. Similar preparations from Phormidium laminosum, a thermophilic cyanobacterium retain activity under such conditions. Photosystem I activities of both cyanobacterial vesicle preparations were determined by direct spectrophotometric measurement of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine photooxidation in the presence of anthraquinone-2-sulfonate. The rates so determined were compared with rates of O(2) taken up in the presence of methyl viologen or anthraquinone-2-sulfonate as electron acceptors. The predicted stoichiometry of two was observed for moles of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine oxidized per mole of oxygen taken up. Anthraquinone-2-sulfonate was the better electron acceptor, and maximal rates of 943 micromoles per hour per milligram chlorophyll for O(2) uptake were observed for Phormidium laminosum preparations in the presence of superoxide dismutase. For purposes of comparison, spinach chloroplasts were assayed for similar activities. All preparations were readily assayed for photosystem I activity by the direct spectrophotometric method, which has advantages of simplicity and freedom from errors introduced by photoxidation of other substrates by photosystem I when O(2) uptake is measured.

Abstract
The cyanelle from the photosynthetic biflagellate protist Cyanophora paradoxa has been studied in terms of its photosynthetic properties. Structurally, the cyanelle resembles unicellular cyanobacteria. The cyanelle is readily released from the host cell by means of the French press. The isolated cyanelle shows typical photosystem I and photosystem II activities as well as phenazine methosulfate-mediated photophosphorylation. The kinetic parameters K(m) and V(max) were determined for CO(2) fixation in the cyanelle and cells of C. paradoxa and compared to a cyanobacterium. The determined values were not much different, although the cyanobacterium had a significantly greater rate of CO(2) fixation, and the cyanelle was least active in this regard. Photosystem I chlorophyll-protein complex is readily isolated from the thylakoid membrane. In all these respects, the photosynthetic apparatus of the cyanelle resembles that of cyanobacteria. No nitrogen fixation activity was observed. Attempts to regenerate the isolated cyanelle were not successful, but in some cases, an unidentified cyanobacterium grew up in standing cultures of C. paradoxa cyanelles. Buoyant density data indicate that the strain of C. paradoxa we have investigated differs from that employed by others, since our strain shows a value of 1.716 grams per cubic centimeter and others report values of 1.695 and 1.691.

Abstract
The use of Triton X-100 to solubilize membrane fragments from Anabaena flos-aquae in conjunction with DEAE cellulose chromatography allows the separation of three green fractions. Fraction 1 is detergent-solubilized chlorophyll, and Fraction 2 contains one polypeptide in the 15 kdalton area. Fraction 3, which contains most of the chlorophyll and shows P-700 and photosystem I activity, shows by SDS gel electrophoresis varying polypeptide profiles which reflect the presence of four fundamental bands as well as varying amounts of other polypeptides which appear to be aggregates containing the 15 kdalton polypeptide. The four fundamental bands are designated Band I at 120, Band II at 52, Band III at 46, and Band IV at 15 kdaltons. Band I obtained using 0.1% SDS contains chlorophyll and P-700 associated with it. When this band is cut out and rerun, the 120 kdalton band is lost, but significant increases occur in the intensities of Bands II, III, and IV as well as other polypeptides in the 20-30 kdalton range. The use of 1% Triton X-100 coupled with sucrose density gradient centrifugation allows the separation of three green bands at 10, 25 and 40% sucrose. The 10% layer contains a major polypeptide which appears to be Band IV. The 25 and 40% layers show essentially similar polypeptide profiles, resembling Fraction 3 in this regard, except that the 40% layer shows a marked decrease in Band III. Treatment of the material layering at the 40% sucrose level with a higher (4%) concentration of Triton X-100 causes a loss (disaggregation) of the polypeptides occurring in the 60-80 kdalton region and in increase in the lower molecular weight polypeptides. Thus, aggregation of the lower molecular weight polypeptides accounts for the variability seen in the electrophoresis patterns. Possible relations of the principal polypeptides to the known photochemical functions in the original membrane are discussed.

Abstract
The small Photosystem I particles prepared from spinach chloroplasts by the action of Triton X-100 (TSF 1 particles) reaggregate into membrane structures when they are incubated with soybean phospholipids and cholate and then subjected to a slow dialysis. The membranes so formed are vesicular in nature and show the capability of catalyzing phenazine methosulfate-mediated cyclic photophosphorylation at rates which are usually about 20% of those observed with chloroplasts, but higher rates have been obtained. When coupling factor is removed from the chloroplasts by treatment with EDTA, a requirement for coupling factor can be shown for the subsequent ATP formation. The uncouplers carbonylcyanide 3-chlorophenyl-hydrazone, valinomycin, Triton X-100 and NH+4 are effective with the reformed vesicles, which do not show the typical light-induced pH gradient observed with chloroplasts. Incubation of the TSF 1 particles with phospholipids alone allows for the formation of membrane vesicles, but such vesicles are only slightly active in ATP formation. In most properties investigated, the reformed membrane vesicles resemble the original chloroplast membrane so far as phenazine methosulfate-mediated cyclic photophosphorylation is concerned, which indicates a high degree of selectivity in the reaggregation process. The major difference between chloroplasts and the reformed vesicles is the failure of the latter to show a light-induced pH gradient.

Abstract
Anabaena variabilis, a blue-green alga lacking chlorophyll b, shows an absence of the major 22 and 24 kilodalton polypeptides which are present in the photosynthetic membranes of Chlamydomonas reinhardi and higher plants. These data are consistent with other investigations which have shown that these polypeptides are associated with chlorophyll b in the chloroplasts of higher plants, and indicate the presence of a light harvesting chlorophyll-protein complex in higher plants which contains the chlorophyll b of the photosynthetic membrane.
