Effect of melatonin and luzindole antagonist on fipronil toxicity, detoxification and antioxidant enzyme system in different tissues of Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 231:116130. [PMID: 37201702 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Studies have investigating the detoxification and antioxidant enzymes with melatonin under pesticide stress in many vertebrates, whereas no reports produced in invertebrates. In this study possible role of melatonin and luzindole effect on fipronil toxicity and the detoxification, antioxidant enzymes in H. armigera has been reported. Result showed high toxicity of fipronil treatment (LC50 4.24 ppm), followed by increased LC50 value with melatonin pretreatment (6.44 ppm). Whereas decreased toxicity was observed with melatonin and luzindole combination (3.72 ppm). The detoxification enzymes AChE, esterase and P450 were increased in larval head and whole body with exogenous melatonin level compared to control 1-1.5 μmol/mg of protein. The antioxidant levels of CAT, SOD and GST in whole body and head tissue had been increased by melatonin and fipronil combination 1.1-1.4 unit/mg of protein followed by GPx and GR in larval head (1-1.2 μmol/mg of protein). Mean while the luzindole antagonist inhibits CAT, SOD, GST and GR oxidative enzyme level (1-1.5 fold) in most of the tissue compared to melatonin and fipronil treatment (p < 0.01). Hence this study concludes that the melatonin pretreatment can reduce the fipronil toxicity by enhanced detoxification and antioxidant enzyme system in H. armigera.

Mass spectrometry imaging-based assays for aminotransferase activity reveal a broad substrate spectrum for a previously uncharacterized enzyme. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:102939. [PMID: 36702250 PMCID: PMC9957770 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2023.102939] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Aminotransferases (ATs) catalyze pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent transamination reactions between amino donor and keto acceptor substrates and play central roles in nitrogen metabolism of all organisms. ATs are involved in the biosynthesis and degradation of both proteinogenic and nonproteinogenic amino acids and also carry out a wide variety of functions in photorespiration, detoxification, and secondary metabolism. Despite the importance of ATs, their functionality is poorly understood as only a small fraction of putative ATs, predicted from DNA sequences, are associated with experimental data. Even for characterized ATs, the full spectrum of substrate specificity, among many potential substrates, has not been explored in most cases. This is largely due to the lack of suitable high-throughput assays that can screen for AT activity and specificity at scale. Here we present a new high-throughput platform for screening AT activity using bioconjugate chemistry and mass spectrometry imaging-based analysis. Detection of AT reaction products is achieved by forming an oxime linkage between the ketone groups of transaminated amino donors and a probe molecule that facilitates mass spectrometry-based analysis using nanostructure-initiator mass spectrometry or MALDI-mass spectrometry. As a proof-of-principle, we applied the newly established method and found that a previously uncharacterized Arabidopsis thaliana tryptophan AT-related protein 1 is a highly promiscuous enzyme that can utilize 13 amino acid donors and three keto acid acceptors. These results demonstrate that this oxime-mass spectrometry imaging AT assay enables high-throughput discovery and comprehensive characterization of AT enzymes, leading to an accurate understanding of the nitrogen metabolic network.

Abstract
Advances in directed evolution have led to an exploration of new and important chemical transformations; however, many of these efforts still rely on the use of low-throughput chromatography-based screening methods. We present a high-throughput strategy for screening libraries of enzyme variants for improved activity. Unpurified reaction products are immobilized to a self-assembled monolayer and analyzed by mass spectrometry, allowing for direct evaluation of thousands of variants in under an hour. The method was demonstrated with libraries of randomly mutated cytochrome P411 variants to identify improved catalysts for C-H alkylation. The technique may be tailored to evolve enzymatic activity for a variety of transformations where higher throughput is needed.
