A catalytic and structural study of ATP:RNA adenylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.19) from the particulate fraction of Pseudomonas putida was made. During the large-scale purification of this enzyme, designated adenylyltransferase B, a previously undetected ATP-incorporating activity, designated adenylyltransferase A, was observed. Adenylyltransferases A and B were indistinguishable catalytically; however, they differed in their chromatographic and sedimentation properties. Adenylyltransferases A and B were resolved by phosphocellulose, by poly (U)-Sepharose and by Bio-Gel P-100 chromatographies. Adenylytransferase A was determined to have a sedimentation coefficient (S020,w) of 9.3 S and B of 4.3 S. The molecular weight of adenylyltransferase A was estimated to be 185000 and that of adenylyltransferase B to be 50000-60000. Apparently, adenylyltransferase A was generated from adenylyltransferase B during the purification. The AMP incorporation catalyzed by adenylyltransferases A and B was inhibited by two derivatives of the antibiotic rifamycin, AF/013 (50% at 5 mug/ml) and AF/DNFI (50% at 10 mug/ml). The 5'-triphosphate derivative (3'-dATP) of the drug cordycepin (3'-deoxyadenosine/ was a competitive inhibitor with ATP for both adenylyltransferases. The Ki for 3'-deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate was 6 - 10(-4)--10 - 10(-4) M, while the Km for ATP was 1 - 10(-4)--2 - 10(-4) M. Several other anaolgs of ATP, 2'-deoxyadenosine 5' triphosphate, 2'-O-methyl ATP, or the fluorescent 3-beta-D-ribofuranosylimidazo [2,1-i] purien 5'-triphosphate did not affect the activity of adenylyltransferase A or B. Poly(U) and poly(dT) were competitive inhibitors of the ribosomal RNA-primed polymerization reaction. The Ki for poly(U) or poly(dT), in terms of nucleotide phosphate, was 4 - 10-6)--10 - 10(-6) M for adenylyltransferases A and B, compared to 2 - 10(-4)--4 - 10(-4) M for the Km of ribosomal RNA. The inhibition was a result of the competition between the non-priming poly(U), or poly(dT), and ribosomal RNA for the primer binding site on the enzyme. 相似文献

Mutation is as necessary for life as fidelity is in DNA replication. The study of mutations reveals the normal functions of genes, messages, proteins, the causes of many diseases, and the variability of responses among individuals. Indeed, recent mutations that have not yet become polymorphisms are often deleterious and pertinent to the disease history of afflicted individuals. This review discusses the principles behind a variety of methods for the detection of mutations and factors that should be considered in future methods design. One enzymatic approach in particular using orthologs of the CEL I nuclease that show high specificity for all mismatches, appears to be easy and robust. Further developments of this and other methods will allow mutation detection to become an integral component of individualized medicine. 相似文献

Sequence-specific endonuclease Bam HI. Effect of hydrophobic reagents on sequence recognition and catalysis 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The specificity of cleavage of Bam HI is altered in the presence of hydrophobic reagents, such as glycerol and M2SO. The enzyme with altered specificity, designated Bam HI.1, generated digestion patterns of various DNAs, which were distinct from those generated by Bam HI. Cleavage sites recognized in phiX174 RF DNA in the presence of these hydrophobic reagents are not related to the Bam HI palindrome. Bam HI.1 appears to be an endogenous form of Bam HI that can be expressed by altering the hydrophobicity of the reaction. 相似文献

Shoots of Musa and Rhododendron were cultured in vitro on a medium containing 0.5 mg l-1 BA. Shoots growing in the presence of [14C]BA were harvested at intervals during the culture period. Uptake of BA was linear throughout this culture period in Musa but slowed considerably in Rhododendron shoots after day 10. Rhododendron shoots absorbed 40% of the BA present in the medium and Musa shoots absorbed 52%. In each species the principal metabolite formed was [9G]BA. Benzyladenine was present in significant levels only in the pseudostem of Musa.Abbreviations BA

Type II restriction endonucleases Bam HI and Eco RI were covalently coupled to Sepharose. These insolubilized enzymes generated fragment patterns for several viral DNAs identical to those produced by the respective free enzymes. Conditions for optimal activity were similar for both bound and unbound forms of the enzymes. Insolubilization improved thermal stability of Bam HI and Eco RI. The bound enzyme can be recovered from reaction mixtures and reused several times. Upon storage at 4 degrees C, coupled endonucleases remained stable for several months. 相似文献

In vitro techniques have a clear role within ex situ conservation strategies for trees and crop genetic resources, particularly where it is important to conserve specific genotypes or where normal propagules such as recalcitrant seed may not be suitable for long-term storage. These involve the use of conventional micropropagation, restricted growth techniques and cryopreservation. Although these techniques have been used primarily with herbaceous species, increasing attention is being given to woody species. Cryopreservation techniques for both woody and herbaceous species and new approaches which do not require freeze-induced cell dehydration, referred to as the encapsulation-dehydration and the vitrification techniques are described. Illustrative data are presented for the cryopreservation of willow using the encapsulation-dehydration technique. 相似文献

Objective: Our objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of sibutramine with a low‐calorie diet (LCD) and commercial meal‐replacement product in achieving weight loss and weight‐loss maintenance in obese patients. Research Methods and Procedures: Eight U.S. centers recruited 148 obese patients for a 3‐month comprehensive weight‐loss therapy (Phase I) comprising daily sibutramine 10 mg + LCD (two Slim‐Fast meal‐replacement shakes, one low‐calorie meal; total kcal/d = 1200–1500). Patients (N = 113) who lost ≥5% of initial body weight during Phase I were randomized for a 9‐month period (Phase II) to daily sibutramine 15 mg + LCD (one meal‐replacement shake; two low‐calorie meals: total kcal/d ~1200–1500) or daily placebo + three low‐calorie meals (total kcal/d ~1200–1500). Both phases included behavior modification. Efficacy was assessed by body weight change during each phase and by the number of patients at endpoint maintaining ≥80% of the weight they had lost by the end of Phase I. Other outcomes included changes in cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, adverse events, and vital signs. Results: Mean body weight change during Phase I was ?8.3 kg (p < 0.001). Patients randomized to sibutramine in Phase II had an additional ?2.5 kg mean weight loss vs. a 2.8‐kg increase in the placebo group (p < 0.001). More sibutramine patients maintained ≥80% of their Phase I weight loss at the end of Phase II (85.5% vs. placebo 36.7%, p < 0.001). Most adverse events were mild or moderate in severity, and all serious adverse events were unrelated to sibutramine. Discussion: Sibutramine plus LCD with meal replacements and behavior modification is a safe and effective strategy for achieving and sustaining weight loss in obese patients. 相似文献
