Purification and Properties of Cytosolic Copper,Zinc Superoxide Dismutase from Watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.) Cotyledons

Cytosolic copperzinc-superoxide dismutase (CuZn-SOD I; EC 1.15.1.1) was purified to homogeneity from watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.) cotyledons. The stepwise purification procedure consisted of acetone precipitation, batch anion-exchange chromatography, anion-exchange Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography, gel-filtration column chromatography, and affinity chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose. CuZn-SOD I was purified 310-fold with a yield of 12.6 micrograms enzyme per gram cotyledons, and had a specific activity of 3, 540 units per milligram protein. The relative molecular mass for cytosolic CuZn-SOD was 34000, and it was composed by two equal subunits of 16.3 kDa. CuZn-SOD I did not contain neutral carbohydrates in its molecule, and its ultraviolet and visible absorption spectra showed two absorption maxima at 254 nm and 580 nm. Metal analysis showed that the enzyme contained 1 gram-atom Cu and 1 gram-atom Zn per mole dimer. Cytosolic CuZn-SOD was recognized by the antibody against peroxisomal CuZn-SOD from watermelon cotyledons, and its enzymatic activity was inhibited by this antibody. By IEF (pH 4.2–4.9), using a new method for vertical slab gels set up in our laboratory, purified cytosolic CuZn-SOD was resolved into two equal isoforms with isoelectric points of 4.63 and 4.66.

Rapid High-Yield Purification and Liposome Reconstitution of Polyhistidine-Tagged Sensory Rhodopsin I

We have used Ni²⁺-affinity chromatography as a rapid and efficient method to purify a sensory rhodopsin I (SR-I) derivative containing six consecutive histidine residues at its C-terminus (His-tagged SR-I). The protein was expressed inHalobacterium salinariumby integrating the corresponding gene at the chromosomal bacterioopsin locus under the control of the bacterioopsin promoter. His-tagged SR-I retains native SR-I photochemical reactions in purified membranes and phototaxis signaling functionin vivo.Immobilized Ni²⁺-affinity chromatography of membranes solubilized in 1% lauryl maltoside provides a single-step purification of the protein to electrophoretic homogeneity (≥90% pure). The procedure yields 1.7 mg pure photoactive protein/liter of culture (60% efficiency). This yield combined with engineered overproduction of the protein provides at least 120-fold greater amounts than that of a previously reported multistep purification procedure, permitting structural and biochemical analysis previously not feasible. The purified protein in lauryl maltoside at pH 5.3 exhibits a visible absorption maximum at 587 nm characteristic of SR-I. Spectrometric titration reveals an alkaline-induced species at 550 nm previously observed with transducer-free SR-I in native membranes. A previously unreported structured absorption band at 400 nm, consistent with a deprotonated Schiff base, forms with the same pK_aas the 550-nm species. His-tagged SR-I reconstituted into phosphatidylglycerol proteoliposomes retains properties of transducer-free SR-I in native membranes: its flash-induced absorption difference spectrum is identical, its photochemical reaction cycle kinetics show a similar pH dependence, and it forms a photoactive 550-nm species under alkaline conditions. These results indicate His-tagged SR-I reconstituted in proteoliposomes is suitable for analyzing SR-I interaction with its transducer proteinin vitro.     

Peroxisomal membrane manganese superoxide dismutase: characterization of the isozyme from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Schrad.) cotyledons

In this work the manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) bound to peroxisomal membranes of watermelon cotyledons (Citrullus lanatus Schrad.) was purified to homogeneity and some of its molecular properties were determined. The stepwise purification procedure consisted of ammonium sulphate fractionation, batch anion-exchange chromatography, and anion-exchange and gel-filtration column chromatography using a fast protein liquid chromatography system. Peroxisomal membrane Mn-SOD (perMn-SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) was purified 5600-fold with a yield of 2.6 mug of enzyme g(-1) of cotyledons, and had a specific activity of 480 U mg(-1) of protein. The native molecular mass determined for perMn-SOD was 108 000 Da, and it was composed of four equal subunits of 27 kDa, which indicates that perMn-SOD is a homotetramer. Ultraviolet and visible absorption spectra of the enzyme showed a shoulder at 275 nm and two absorption maxima at 448 nm and 555 nm, respectively. By isoelectric focusing, a pI of 5.75 was determined for perMn-SOD. In immunoblot assays, purified perMn-SOD was recognized by a polyclonal antibody against Mn-SOD from pea leaves, and the peroxisomal enzyme rapidly dissociated in the presence of dithiothreitol and SDS. The potential binding of the Mn-SOD isozyme to the peroxisomal membrane was confirmed by immunoelectron microscopy analysis. The properties of perMn-SOD and the mitMn-SOD are compared and the possible function in peroxisomal membranes of the peripheral protein Mn-SOD is discussed.     

Four cytosolic-type CuZn-superoxide dismutases in germinating seeds of Pinus sylvestris

A differential analysis of CuZn-superoxide dismutase (SOD. EC 1.15.1.1) isozymes after native-polyacry lamide gel elecrrophoresis (PAGE) and isoelectric focusing (IEF) indicated that germinating seeds of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) 3 days after the start of imbibition (3 DAI) contain five CuZn-SOD isozymes. Two isozymes co-migrated on native–PAGE but were separated after IEF. CuZn-SODs of Scots pine were purified from germinating seeds (3 DAI) by anion-exchange chromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and chromatofocusing. The final separation of CuZn-SOD isozymes was accomplished by native-PAGE. CuZn-SOD isozymes were electroblotted and their NH₂-terminal amino acid sequence was determined. Comparisons of the amino acid sequences with sequences of CuZn-SOD isozymes from other plant sources indicated that one CuZn-SOD isozyme was of the chloroplastic type whereas the other four isozymes belonged to the cytosolic-type CuZn-SODs, The NH₂-terminal amino acid sequence of the chloroplastic CuZn-SOD and of one cytosolic-type CuZn-SOD were identical to those of two previously isolated, sequenced and localized CuZn-SOD isozymes from Scots pine needles. Two cytosolic-type CuZn-SOD isozymes showed a homology at 20 out of 21 NH₂-terminal amino acids. Mitochondria and glyoxysomes were isolated by differential and Percoll density-gradient centrifugation from germinating seeds (3 DAI). The cell fractionation experiments did not suggest that a major part of the CuZn-SOD activity in germinating seeds was derived from glyoxysomes or mitochondria.     

Purification and characterization of chlorite dismutase: a novel oxygen-generating enzyme

A novel enzyme that catalyzes the disproportionation of chlorite into chloride and oxygen was purified from a gram-negative bacterium, strain GR-1 to homogeneity. A four-step purification procedure comprising Q-Sepharose, hydroxyapatite, and phenyl-Superose chromatography and ultrafiltration resulted in a 13.7-fold purified enzyme with a final specific activity of 2.0 mmol min^–1 (mg protein)^–1. The dismutase obeyed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The V _max and K _m calculated for chlorite were 2,200 U (mg protein)^–1 and 170 μM, respectively. Dismutase activity was inhibited by hydroxylamine, cyanide, and azide, but not by 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. Chlorite dismutase had a molecular mass of 140 kDa and consisted of four 32-kDa subunits. The enzyme was red-colored and had a Soret peak at 392 nm. Per subunit, it contained 0.9 molecule of protoheme IX and 0.7 molecule of iron. Chlorite dismutase displayed maxima for activity at pH 6.0 and 30° C. Received: 9 April 1996 / Accepted: 12 August 1996     

Preparation of Homogeneous Concanavalim A

Abstract

Concanavalin A (Con A), obtained either commercially or by affinity chromatography, was further purified by incubating at 6–8°C for 16–18 hr at pH 3.0–3.2 in 1 M MaCl, 0.08 M glycine and 3 mM each Ca⁺² and Mn⁺², heat treating at 45°C for 2 hr and centrifuqing. The supernatant was neutralized to pH 5 and stored in the cold. The overall yield was 70–80% Some of the properties of Con A at pH 5 are: The absorption coefficient of a 1 g/dl solution is 13.7 at 280 nm; the mean residue elliptic-ity at 224.5 nm is ?9,300° to ?9,800°; by sedimentation equilibrium, its molecular weight is 53,000 between pH 3.0 and pH 5.2. Con A solutions standing at room temperature at pH 7 for ten days lose through precipitation only 5–8% of the protein in 0.2 M NaCl and 15% of the protein in 0.1 M NaCI. In the solution conditions of SDS and urea-SDS gels, Con A not only unfolds slowly and incompletely, but it also forms high molecular weight aggregates. Thus, electrophoresis of Con A in such gels is unsuitable for tests of homogeneity. However, as judged by sedimentation equilibrium in 6.5 M quanidine at pH 8.1, purified Con A was monodisperse.     

Purification and properties of chicken egg-white cobalamin-binding protein

A cobalamin-binding protein has been purified from chicken egg-white by using a combination of conventional and high performance ion-exchange chromatography. Following initial purification by DEAE-cellulose, ammonium sulphate precipitation, Sephacryl S-200 CM-cellulose and affinity chromatography, appropriate fractions were further purified using the Pharmacia fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) system. Using this method of purification, egg-white CBP has been purified more rapidly and with greater recovery than with conventional column chromatography. The homogeneity of this protein was verified by SDS-PAGE. The Mr was 37,000 by SDS-PAGE and 39,000 by gel filtration, which indicated that it was a glycoprotein. The stokes radius was 4.1 nm and pI was 4.3. The protein bound 57COB12 with a molar ratio of 1/1 and kd of 0.40 microM. The egg-white CBP was composed of 294 amino acid residues. Thiol groups and metal ions were not connected with the Cbl-binding activities.
