| Abstract | Tissue transglutaminase (TGC, TG2, 80 kDa) is inactive in cross-linking reactions and is converted in vitro and in vivo to the TG (55 kDa) active isoform (Fraij in J Cell Biochem 112:2469–2489, 2011). Two isoforms of human TGC were cloned from human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells induced with retinoic acid (RA) and termed TGH, 63 kDa (Fraij et al. in J Biol Chem 267:22616–22673, 1992) and TGH2, 37 kDa. The purified TGC isoforms exhibited GTPase activity and TGH and TGH2 showed higher activities than the native TGC protein. In all normal cells examined, TGC was found in membrane fractions several fold higher than the supernatant fractions; however, in the natural tumor cell line HEL the TGC cellular distribution was reversed. Although TGC is the major enzyme in normal human erythrocytes, its expression level was significantly decreased in HEL cells. RA treatment induced a sevenfold increase in the level of TGC protein in HEL cells and was accompanied by its translocation to cell membranes. When isolated membrane and supernatant fractions from normal human foreskin (CF3), normal human embryonic lung (WI-38), and HEL cells treated with or without RA were incubated with [$^{32}$P]-ATP at 37 °C for 1 h, more radio-labeled proteins were detected in the membrane fractions than the cytosolic fractions. More labeled protein bands were detected in RA treated HEL cells in comparison to control HEL cell extracts. Radio labeled proteins coimmunoprecipitated with the TGC isoforms in RA treated HEL membrane fractions thereby confirming that the radio-labeled material consists of endogenous proteins associated with TGC isoforms. Protein phosphorylation is related to the induction and translocation of the isoforms in RA treated cells. These results show that the TGC isoforms complexes with proteins in vivo and that the phosphorylation of these proteins is catalyzed directly by TGC kinase activity or indirectly by the TGC phosphorylation of other protein kinases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
