This study determines the validity of utilizing radioimmunoassay of CuZn and Mn superoxide dismutase in the rat for defining mechanism of control over mammalian tissue superoxide dismutase concentrations. To accomplish this, rat Mn and CuZn superoxide dismutase were purified. The CuZn superoxide dismutase dimer had a specific activity of 3600 units/mg of protein and a subunit Mr of 17,000. The Mn superoxide dismutase tetramer had a specific activity of 3700 units/mg of protein and a subunit Mr of 22,000. Both enzymes provided a single discrete protein band on disc gel electrophoresis. The purified enzymes were utilized to develop sensitive (less than 2.5 ng/ml Mn superoxide dismutase and less than 3.12 ng/ml CuZn superoxide dismutase) reproducible immunoassays the specificity of which was confirmed by tissue homogenate dilution and column chromatography. Immunoassay of these enzymes in rat tissues permitted clarification of existing data based on activity assays and demonstrated a trend for higher Mn superoxide dismutase concentrations in tissues of high mitochondrial content (with relative tissue concentrations comparable to man) and low superoxide dismutase concentrations in islets (providing an explanation for their sensitivity to free radical damage). This represents the first report of a radioimmunoassay for rat Mn superoxide dismutase, and the second report of successful purification of rat Mn superoxide dismutase (with higher specific activity and apparent purity and stability). The data support the proposition that these radioimmunoassays in rats will provide a useful system for investigation of mechanisms of control over tissue superoxide dismutase concentrations in mammalian tissues.  相似文献

Human extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is involved in the defence against oxidative stress induced by the superoxide radical. The protein is a homotetramer stabilised by hydrophobic interactions within the N-terminal region. During the purification of EC-SOD from human aorta, we noticed that material with high affinity for heparin-Sepharose formed not only a tetramer but also an octamer. Analysis of the thermodynamic stability of the octamer suggested that the C-terminal region is involved in formation of the quaternary structure. In addition, we show that the octamer is composed of both aEC-SOD and iEC-SOD folding variants. The presence of the EC-SOD octamer with high affinity may represent a way to influence the local concentration of EC-SOD to protect tissues specifically sensitive to oxidative damage.  相似文献

Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px; glutathione: hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase; EC 1.11.1.9), catalase (H2O2: H2O2 oxidoreductase; EC 1.11.1.6) and superoxide dismutase (superoxide: superoxide oxidoreductase; EC 1.15.1.1) were coisolated from human erythrocyte lysate by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Glutathione peroxidase was separated from superoxide dismutase and catalase by thiol-disulfide exchange chromatography and then purified to approximately 90% homogeneity by gel permeation chromatography and dye-ligand affinity chromatography. Catalase and superoxide dismutase were separated from each other and purified further by gel permeation chromatography. Catalase was then purified to approximately 90% homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation and superoxide dismutase was purified to apparent homogeneity by hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The results for glutathione peroxidase represent an improvement of approximately 10-fold in yield and 3-fold in specific activity compared with the established method for the purification of this enzyme. The yields for superoxide dismutase and catalase were high (45 mg and 232 mg, respectively, from 820 ml of washed packed cells), and the specific activities of both enzymes were comparable to values found in the literature.  相似文献

A two-step procedure is described for the purification of protein disulphide-isomerase (PDI). This procedure is based on the previous finding that the beta-subunit of the prolyl 4-hydroxylase tetramer (alpha 2 beta 2) is identical with PDI [Koivu, Myllylä, Helaakoski, Pihlajaniemi, Tasanen & Kivirikko (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 6447-6449; Pihlajaniemi, Helaakoski, Tasanen, Myllylä, Huhtala, Koivu & Kivirikko (1987) EMBO J. 6, 643-649]. The procedure involves purification of the prolyl 4-hydroxylase tetramer by a simple affinity chromatography and subsequent isolation of the beta-subunit from the dissociated tetramer by ion-exchange chromatography.  相似文献

A manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) was purified to homogeneity from a higher plant for the first time. The enzyme was isolated fromPisum sativum leaf extracts by thermal fractionation, ammonium sulfate salting out, ion-exchange and gel-filtration column chromatography, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Pure manganese superoxide dismutase had a specific activity of about 3,000 U mg-1 and was purified 215-fold, with a yield of 1.2 mg enzyme per kg whole leaf. The manganese superoxide dismutase had a molecular weight of 94,000 and contained one g-atom of Mn per mol of enzyme. No iron and copper were detected. Activity reconstitution experiments with the pure enzyme ruled out the possibility of a manganese loss during the purification procedure. The stability of manganese superoxide dismutase at-20°C, 4°C, 25°C, 50°C, and 60°C was studied, and the enzyme was found more labile at high temperatures than bacterial manganese superoxide dismutases and iron superoxide dismutases from an algal and bacterial origin.Abbreviations NBT nitro blue tetrazolium - SOD superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1)  相似文献

Copper, zinc superoxide dismutase was isolated from human red blood cell hemolysate by DEAE-Sepharose and copper chelate affinity chromatography. Enzyme preparations had specific activities ranging from 3400 to 3800 U/mg and recoveries were approximately 60% of the enzyme activity in the lysate. Copper chelate affinity chromatography resulted in a purification factor of about 60-fold. The homogeneity of the superoxide dismutase preparation was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis, analytical gel filtration chromatography, and isoelectric focusing.  相似文献

Partial purification of the two enzymes i.e. superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POX) from ber pulp has been obtained by passing the ammonium sulphate fraction through a diethyl amino ethyl-cellulose (DEAE-Cellulose) column. The fractions showing SOD and POX activity were pooled separately and passed through a Sephadex G100 column for further purification. SOD was purified 12.2 fold with 12.6% yield while POX was purified 15.6 fold with 19.3% yield. Approximate molecular mass for SOD and POX, as judged by gel filtration method was 35.6 and 81.5 kDa, respectively.Key words: Ber fruit, superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, fold purification, yield, Zizyphus mauritiana Lamk  相似文献

Manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) is one of the major enzymes responsible for the defense against oxidative damage due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the mitochondria. The present study aimed to produce and evaluate the genetically engineered manganese superoxide dismutase protein. A recombinant plasmid containing DNA segment coding Mn-SOD protein was transformed into Escherichia coli (E. coli) Rosetta-gami strain, for expression. After induction with IPTG, an expected molecular mass of 25 kDa was detected by SDS-PAGE. After Ni-NTA affinity chromatography purification, the purity rate came up to 95%. UV spectroscopy data for our preparations indicated that a peak at 275 nm existed in the spectrum. SOD activity assay showed that the activity of the rhMn-SOD was 1890.9 U/mg. The ORAC level of rhMn-SOD was 151492.2 uM Trolox equiv/mg. Furthermore, in vitro bioactivity assay indicated that the rhMn-SOD protein can inhibit the proliferation of the leukemia K562 cells.  相似文献

Dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra are susceptible to toxin-based insults. Intrastriatal injection of 6-hydroxydopamine results in selective toxicity to these neurons. A mechanistic role for reactive oxygen species is supported by observations that antioxidants confer protection from 6-hydroxydopamine. Although cell culture studies have suggested extracellular or nonmitochondrial mechanisms in 6-hydroxydopamine toxicity, the compartmentalization of oxidative injury mechanisms is incompletely defined in vivo. Transgenic mice overexpressing mitochondrial manganese superoxide dismutase or extracellular superoxide dismutase received unilateral intrastriatal injections of 6-hydroxydopamine. Mice that overexpress manganese superoxide dismutase showed significantly smaller striatal lesions than littermate controls. There were no differences in nonspecific striatal injury associated with contralateral vehicle injection. Manganese superoxide dismutase overexpression also protected against loss of neuronal cell bodies in the substantia nigra. In contrast, mice overexpressing extracellular superoxide dismutase showed no protection from 6-hydroxydopamine toxicity in either brain region. Protection of the nigrostriatal system by overexpression of manganese superoxide dismutase supports a role for mitochondrially derived superoxide in 6-hydroxydopamine toxicity. Mitochondrial oxidative stress appears to be a common mechanism among diverse models of Parkinson disease, whether involving toxins, mutated genes, or cybrid cells containing patient mitochondria. Antioxidant therapies that target this subcellular compartment may prove promising.  相似文献

A new method for the purification of manganese superoxide dismutase from human liver is described. The procedure involves essentially three steps: DEAE-cellulose, hydroxylapatite, and butyl-Toyopearl chromatographies. The method has several advantages: (i) its simplicity and rapidity (it takes less than 3 days), (ii) its high yield (62%) with a high specific activity (5660 units/mg of purified SOD), and (iii) its suitability for both large- and small-scale purifications.  相似文献

An expression vector has been constructed which increases the expression of serine acetyltransferase (SAT) from E. coli to 17% of the soluble cell protein. A novel purification procedure, using dye-affinity chromatography, allows purification of SAT to homogeneity. The enzyme has been crystallised from polyethylene glycol, in the presence of L-cysteine (an inhibitor of SAT). The crystals which diffract to beyond 3.0 A resolution are of the tetragonal spacegroup P4(1)2(1)2 (or P4(3)2(1)2) with cell dimensions a = b = 123 A, c = 79 A. Since ultracentrifugation and gel-filtration experiment indicate that purified SAT is a tetramer, there appears to be one-half tetramer in the asymmetric unit (Vm = 2.55 A3/Da).  相似文献

Increasing therapeutic applications for recombinant human interferon-gamma (rhIFN-gamma), an antiviral proinflammatory cytokine, has broadened interest in optimizing methods for its production and purification. We describe a reversed phase chromatography (RPC) procedure using Source-30 matrix in the purification of rhIFN-gamma from Escherichia coli that results in a higher yield than previously reported. The purified rhIFN-gamma monomer from the RPC column is refolded in Tris buffer. Optimal refolding occurs at protein concentrations between 50 and 100 microg/ml. This method yields greater than 90% of the dimer form with a yield of 40 mg/g cell mass. Greater than 99% purity is achieved with further purification over a Superdex G-75 column to obtain specific activities of from 2 x 10(7) to 4 x 10(7)IU/mg protein as determined via cytopathic antiviral assay. The improved yield of rhIFN-gamma in a simple chromatographic purification procedure promises to enhance the development and therapeutic application of this biologically potent molecule.  相似文献

Superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1) is an enzyme that protects against oxidative stress from superoxide radicals in living cells. This enzyme has been isolated, purified and partially characterized from chicken liver. The following steps were carried out in order to purify chicken liver SOD. Initially, the liver was homogenized and hemoglobin was removed. Subsequently protein precipitation was effected with (NH(4))(2)SO(4), methanol, (NH(4))(2)SO(4)-methanol and polyethylene glycol methods. The product from polyethylene glycol-3350 precipitation was found to have the highest SOD activity. Polyethylene glycol was removed by chromatography using a PD-10 column. After passing through an ultrafilter, the superoxide dismutase was fractionated by DEAE-ion chromatography and then Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography. During this purification procedure, a specific activity of 4818.2 IU/mg was reached, corresponding to 285.8-fold purification. The purified enzyme, which was characterized as cyanide-sensitive SOD, contained two subunits having Cu and Zn elements with a molecular weight of 16000+/-500 for each. The optimum pH of purified CuZnSOD was determined to be 8.9. The enzyme was found to have good pH stability in the pH range 6.0-7.5 at 25 degrees C over a 2-h incubation period and displayed good thermal stability up to 45 degrees C at pH 7.4 over a 1-h incubation period. The SOD enzyme was not inhibited by DTT and beta-mercaptoethanol, but inhibited by CN(-) and H(2)O(2). In the presence of 2 mM iodoacetamide, the enzyme showed an approximately 40% activity loss. Finally, the inhibitory effect of ionic strength on SOD was also investigated.  相似文献

Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a tumor-associated embryonic molecule whose precise biological function remains unclear. A complete definition of the physiological activities of this oncofetal protein has been severely limited, until now, by the lack of a purification procedure appropriate to obtain pure AFP in appreciable amount. The present report describes a purification procedure extremely rapid and simple and takes advantage of the well-known fact that AFP contains copper. We have developed a single-step purification procedure by immobilized copper-chelate affinity chromatography using the culture medium from human hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 grown in the absence of serum. This method yields AFP at high purity and high yield. Purified AFP amino acid sequence, molecular mass, carbohydrate structure, and copper content were found to be in line with previous studies. Moreover, we found that the purified AFP has superoxide dismutase activity with efficiency similar to that of the native Cu, Zn SODs at physiological pH. This result may provide further support to the idea that AFP is a bifunctional protein, acting in cellular defence against oxidative stress both as a copper buffer and as a superoxide radical scavenger.  相似文献

Rat heart ornithine decarboxylate activity from isoproterenol-treated rats was inactivated in vitro by reactive species of oxygen generated by the reaction xanthine/xanthine oxidase. Reduced glutathione, dithiothreitol and superoxide dismutase has a protective effect in homogenates and in partially purified ornithine decarboxylase exposed to the xanthine/xanthine oxidase reaction, while diethyldithiocarbamate, which is an inhibitor of superoxide dismutase, potentiated the damage induced by O2- on enzyme activity. Dithiothreitol at concentrations above 1.25 mM had an inhibitory effect upon supernatant ornithine decarboxylase activity, while at 2.5 mM it was most effective in the recovery of ornithine decarboxylase activity, after the purification of the enzyme by the ammonium sulphate precipitation procedure. The ornithine decarboxylase inactivated by the xanthine/xanthine oxidase reaction showed a higher value of Km and a reduction of Vmax with respect to control activity. The exposure of rats to 100% oxygen for 3 h reduced significantly the isoproterenol-induced heart ornithine decarboxylase activity. The injection with diethyldithiocarbamate 1 h before hyperoxic exposure further reduced heart ornithine decarboxylase activity.  相似文献

A glyoxysomal copper,zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) was purified to homogeneity, for the first time, from watermelon cotyledons (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.). The stepwise purification procedure consisted of acetone precipitation, batch anion-exchange chromatography, anion-exchange Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography and gel-filtration column chromatography. Pure copper,zinc-superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD II) had a specific activity of 1211 units per milligram protein and was purified 400-fold, with a yield of 8 micrograms enzyme per gram cotyledon. The glyoxysomal Cu,Zn-SOD had a relative molecular weight of about 33,000 and was composed of two equal subunits of 16,500 Daltons. Metal analysis showed that the enzyme, unlike other Cu,Zn-SODs, contained 1 gram-atom Cu and 1 gram-atom Zn per mole dimer. No iron and manganese were detected. Ultraviolet and visible absorption spectra were reminiscent of other copper,zinc-superoxide dismutases.  相似文献

A simple and rapid procedure for the purification of superoxide dismutase (SOD) from bovine erythrocytes by means of affinity-purified anti-SOD antibodies coupled to Sepharose 4B is reported. The method allowed 80% recovery of electrophoretically pure enzyme directly from hemolyzed red blood cells. The mild elution conditions (3.5 M MgCl2) and the stability of the immunoadsorbent permit the column to be reused several times (greater than 50). The physicochemical properties of the enzyme obtained by this method are identical to those of the native protein.  相似文献

The contents of extracellular superoxide dismutase, CuZn superoxide dismutase and Mn superoxide dismutase were determined in tissues from nine mammalian species. The pattern of CuZn superoxide dismutase distribution was similar in all species, with high activity in metabolically active organs such as liver and kidney and low activity in, for example, skeletal muscle. Mn superoxide dismutase activity was high in organs with high respiration, such as liver, kidney, and myocardium. Overall the Mn superoxide dismutase activity in organs was almost as high as the CuZn superoxide dismutase activity. The content of extracellular superoxide dismutase was, almost without exception, lower than the content of the other isoenzymes. The pattern of tissue distribution was distinctly different from those of CuZn superoxide dismutase and Mn superoxide dismutase. The tissue distribution of extracellular superoxide dismutase differed among species, but in general there was much in lungs and kidneys and little in skeletal muscle. In man, pig, sheep, cow, rabbit and mouse the overall tissue extracellular superoxide dismutase activities were similar to each other, whereas dog, cat and rat tissues contained distinctly less. There was no general correlation between the tissue extracellular superoxide dismutase activity of any of the various species and the variable plasma activity. The ratio between the plasma and the overall tissue activities was high, for some species over unity, providing further evidence for the notion that one role of extracellular superoxide dismutase is as a plasma protein.  相似文献
