1-syntrophin in skeletal muscle in
mammals. In this study, we have purified an nNOS-interacting protein
from bovine brain using an affinity column made of Sepharose conjugated with glutathione S-transferase-rat nNOS fusion protein and
identified it as
1-syntrophin by microsequencing. Immunostaining of
primary cultures of rat embryonic brain neuronal cells with antibodies against these proteins showed that nNOS and
1-syntrophin were colocalized in neuronal cell bodies and neurites. Immunohistochemical analysis indicated that the nNOS- and
1-syntrophin-like
immunoreactive substances were highly expressed in the rat hypothalamic
suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and paraventricular nucleus. In the SCN,
nNOS- and
1-syntrophin-like immunoreactive substances were
colocalized in the same neurons as detected by confocal microscopy.
These results indicate that nNOS in brain interacts with
1-syntrophin in specific neurons of the SCN and paraventricular
nucleus and that this interaction might play a physiological role in
functions of these neurons.
