TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Hypoxia decreases the expression of the two enzymes responsible for producing linear and cyclic tetrapyrroles in the heme biosynthetic pathway

Heme is synthesized in all cell types in aerobic organisms. Hydroxy-methylbilane synthase (HMBS) and uroporphyrinogen III synthase (UROS) catalyze two consecutive reactions in the heme biosynthetic path-way, generating the first linear and the first cyclic tetrapyrroles, respec-tively. Each of the HMBS and UROS genes contains the two separate promoters that generate ubiquitous and erythroid-specific mRNAs. | ỊFEBS Journal Hypoxia decreases the expression of the two enzymes responsible for producing linear and cyclic tetrapyrroles in the heme biosynthetic pathway Patrick D.

Hydroxymethylbilane synthase HMBS and uroporphyrinogen III synthase UROS catalyze two consecutive reactions in the heme biosynthetic pathway generating the first linear and the first cyclic tetrapyrroles respectively. Each of the HMBS and UROS genes contains the two separate promoters that generate ubiquitous and erythroid-specific mRNAs. Despite the functional significance of HMBS and UROS regulation of their gene expression remains to be investigated. Here we showed that hypoxia 1 O2 decreased the expression of ubiquitous mRNAs for HMBS and UROS by three- and twofold respectively in human hepatic cells HepG2 and Hep3B whereas the expression of ubiquitous and erythroid HMBS and UROS mRNAs remained unchanged in erythroid cells YN-1 and K562 . Unexpectedly hypoxia did not decrease the half-life of HMBS mRNA h under normoxia versus h under hypoxia or UROS mRNA versus h in hepatic cells. It is therefore unlikely that a change in mRNA stability is responsible for the hypoxia-mediated decrease in the expression levels of these mRNAs. Furthermore expression .
