For the classical solution synthesis of human epidermal growth factor (h-EGF), five protected peptide derivatives, Boc-Leu-Asp(OcHex)-Lys(Cl-Z)-Tyr(Br-Z)-Ala-OH (5), Boc-Val-Cys(MeBzl)-Met-Tyr(Br-Z)-Ile-Glu(OcHex)-Ala-OH (12), Boc-Tyr(Br-Z)-Cys(MeBzl)-Leu-His-Asp(OcHex)-Gly-OH (18), Boc-Cys(MeBzl)-Pro-Leu-Ser(Bzl)-His-Asp(OcHex)-Gly-O H (23) and Boc-Asn-Ser(Bzl)-Asp(OcHex)-Ser(Bzl)-Glu(OcHex)-OH (28) were synthesized to build up the sequence corresponding to 1–30. 相似文献

Molecularly imprinted polymeric membranes with tetrapeptide residue H-Asp(OcHex)-Asp(OcHex)-Asp(OcHex)-Asp(OcHex)-CH2- (DDDD) or H-Glu(OBzl)-Glu(OBzl)-Glu(OBzl)-Glu(OBzl)-C H2- (EEEE) were prepared during membrane preparation (casting) processing in the presence of print molecules. The Boc-L-Trp imprinted polymeric membranes thus obtained showed adsorption selectivity toward Ac-L-Trp from its racemic mixtures. From adsorption isotherms of Ac-Trp, the chiral recognition site, that had been formed by the presence of print molecules in the membrane preparation process, exclusively recognized Ac-L-Trp that possessed the same configuration of the print molecule. The affinity constants between chiral recognition sites in the membrane and Ac-L-Trp was determined to be 1.00 × 104 mol–1 dm3 and 1.08 × 104 mol–1 dm3 for the DDDD and EEEE membranes, respectively. Enantioselective electrodialysis could be attained by applying an optimum potential difference to give permselectivity, with a value close to its adsorption selectivity. 相似文献

New cysteine-containing derivatives of glycyrrhizic acid were synthesized by its coupling with Cys(Bzl) esters or the Cys(Bzl)-Val-OBu(t) dipeptide by the active ester method (DCC/HOSu) or by Woodward's reagent K. The derivatives with Cys(Bzl) and Cys(Bzl)-Val residues attached to the carbohydrate part of the molecule stimulated the primary immune response and the reaction of delayed-type hypersensitivity in mice at a dose of 2 mg/kg.

It is now recognized that phorbol esters are negative inotropic agents in mammalian heart which presumably act via stimulation of Ca2(+)-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC). The goal in the present study was to identify the underlying cellular processes. Digitonin-permeabilized cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes were used to study biochemical and functional effects of phorbol esters on cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). These cells contracted spontaneously at 3 microM Ca2+. Beating was inhibited by 10 microM ryanodine and was insensitive to 1 microM nifedipine. Thus, beating behavior results from the phasic oscillation of Ca2+ transport by SR in this preparation. Phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), decreased frequency by 30%, suggesting that Ca2+ transport by SR had been reduced. Whereas cAMP stimulated the rate of oxalate-supported 45Ca2+ uptake 2-fold, phorbol esters, TPA, and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate inhibited this process by about 45%. The effects of phorbols were specific: (a) the alpha-analogues of TPA and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate were inactive; and (b) the phorbol esters had no effect on Ca2+ transport in cells that had been depleted of PKC. TPA decreased oxalate-stimulated Ca2+ uptake over the entire range of Ca2+ concentrations, from 0.1 to 10 microM, by at least 70% without shifting the half-maximal effective Ca2+ concentration. Taken together these results indicate that the effects of phorbol ester on cardiac contraction are due to decreased Ca2+ transport by the SR and that these responses are mediated by PKC. These studies support the interpretation that the negative inotropic effects of phorbol esters are due, in part, to decreased SR function. 相似文献

The molecular environment of Ca2+ translocating sites of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase has been studied by pulsed-laser excited luminescence of Eu3+ used as a Ca2+ analogue. Interaction of Eu3+ with SR was characterized by investigating its effect on partial reactions of the Ca2+ transport cycle. In native SR vesicles, Eu3+ was found to inhibit Ca2+ binding, phosphoenzyme formation, ATP hydrolysis activity and Ca2+ uptake in parallel fashion. The non-specific binding of Eu3+ to acidic phospholipids associated with the enzyme was prevented by purifying (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase and exchanging the endogenous lipids with a neutral phospholipid, dioleoylglycerophosphocholine. The results demonstrate that the observed inhibition of Ca2+ transport by Eu3+ is due to its binding to Ca2+ translocating sites. The 7F0----5D0 transition of Eu3+ bound to these sites was monitored. The non-Lorentzian nature of the excitation profile and a double-exponential fluorescence decay revealed the heterogeneity of the two sites. Measurement of fluorescence decay rates in H2O/D2O mixture buffers further distinguished the sites. The number of water molecules in the first co-ordination sphere of Eu3+ bound at transport sites were found to be 4 and 1.5. Addition of ATP reduced these numbers to zero and 0.6. These data show that the calcium ions in translocating sites are well enclosed by protein ligands and are further occluded down to zero or one water molecule of solvation during the transport process. 相似文献

The binding of Eu3+ with Ca2+-stimulated, Mg2+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase ([Ca2+ + Mg2+]-ATPase) of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) has been investigated using direct laser excited Eu3+ luminescence. Eu3+ is found to inhibit both Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity and Ca2+-uptake in a parallel manner. This is attributed to the binding of Eu3+ to the high affinity Ca2+-binding sites. The Ki for Ca2+-dependent ATPase is approximately 50 nM. The 7F0----5D0 excitation spectrum of Eu3+ in cardiac SR shows a peak at 579.3 nm, as compared to 578.8 nm in potassium-morpholino propane sulfonic acid (K-MOPS) pH 6.8. Upon binding with cardiac SR, Eu3+ shows an increase in fluorescence intensity as well as in lifetime values. The fluorescence decay of bound Eu3+ exhibits a double-exponential curve. The apparent number of water molecules in the first coordination sphere of Eu3+ in SR is 2.8 for the short component and 1.0 for the long component. In the presence of ATP, a further increase in fluorescence lifetimes is observed, and the number of water molecules in the first coordination sphere of Eu3+ is reduced further to 1.3 and 0.5. The double exponential nature of the decay curve and the different number of water molecules coordinated to Eu3+ for both decay components suggest that Eu3+ binds to two sites and that these are heterogeneous. The reduction in the number of H2O ligands in the presence of ATP shows a change in the molecular environment of the Eu3+-binding sites upon phosphoenzyme formation, with a movement of Eu3+ to an occluded site on the enzyme. 相似文献

The effect of the phorbol esters phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDB) on changes in free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in single rat hepatocytes, microinjected with the photoprotein aequorin, were investigated. [Arg8]vasopressin and phenylephrine induced a series of repetitive [Ca2+]i transients. Phorbol esters inhibited the alpha 1-adrenoceptor-induced response; sub-nanomolar concentrations decreased the transient frequency, and higher concentrations abolished the transients. The inhibitory effect of PDB was readily reversible. Phorbol esters were less effective in decreasing the frequency of [Arg8]-vasopressin-induced transients, and the inhibition could be overcome by high [Arg8]vasopressin concentrations. 相似文献

A 12-residue marinostatin [MST(1-12): (1)FATMRYPSDSDE(12)] which contains two ester linkages of Thr(3)-Asp(9) and Ser(8)-Asp(11) strongly inhibits subtilisin. In order to study the relationship between the inhibitory activity, structure, and stability of MST, MST analogs were prepared by changing ester linkages to a disulfide linkages. The analogs without the disulfide linkage between 3 and 9 positions lost their inhibitory activity. The K(i) value of 1SS(C(3)-C(9)) ((1)FACMRYPSCSDE(12)), which has a single disulfide linkage of Cys(3)-Cys(9) was comparable with those of MST(1-12) and MST-2SS ((1)FACMRYPCCSCE(12)), a doubly linked analog of Cys(3)-Cys(9) and Cys(8)-Cys(11). However, 1SS(C(3)-C(9)) and MST-2SS showed temporary inhibition, but not MST(1-12): These analogs were inactivated after incubation with subtilisin for 30 min, and were specifically hydrolyzed at the reactive site. (1)H NMR study showed that 1SS(C(3)-C(9)) has two conformations, which contain a cis- (70%) or trans- (30%) Pro residue, while MST-2SS as well as MST(1-12) takes a single conformation containing only a cis-Pro residue. Hydrogen-deuterium exchange rate of the Arg(5) (P1') NH proton of the MST analogs was about 100 times faster than that of MST(1-12). These results indicate that the linkage between the positions 8 and 11 plays a role for fixing the cis-conformation of the Pro(7) residue, and that the linkage between 3 and 9 is indispensable for the inhibition, but not enough for stable protease-inhibitor complex. 相似文献

The preparation of small-sized protected peptide acids related to cholecystokinin and gomesin was attempted using peptide-Kaiser oxime resins (KOR) as starting materials. For comparison, peptide-2-Cl-trityl resin (CLTR) was also employed. While peptide detachment from KOR was achieved through the oxime ester bond hydrolysis mediated by DBU, hydroxide ion or Ca(+2) ion, peptide release from CLTR was accomplished through acid-catalysed hydrolysis of the peptide-resin ester linkage. Amino acid analysis of the peptide-resins before and after peptide release allowed the calculation of the reaction yields. RP-HPLC and LC/ESI-MS of the resulting crude peptides allowed estimation of their quality. The data collected indicated that: (i) among the procedures used for peptide displacement from KOR, the one employing DBU was the most efficient since it furnished all model protected peptide acids with the highest quality in a very short time; (ii) although slow, Ca(+2)-assisted peptide detachment from KOR was selective and was suitable for generating high-quality protected peptide acids containing up to five residues; (iii) even though the protocols employed for peptide release from CLTR have shown to be appropriate, the one employing 1% TFA/DCM was the most productive; (iv) in terms of product quality, DBU-catalysed peptide detachment from KOR was similar to TFA-catalysed peptide release from CLTR although the latter was more productive. These findings are relevant to peptide chemists in general, but especially to those interested in preparing acyl donors for convergent peptide syntheses by the t-Boc chemistry. 相似文献

Distances between functional sites in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+ +Mg2+)-ATPase. Inter-lanthanide energy transfer 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The high-affinity Ca2+-binding sites of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+ +Mg2+)-ATPase have been probed using trivalent lanthanide ions. Non-radiative energy-transfer studies, using luminescent probe Eu3+ as a donor and Nd3+ or Pr3+ as acceptor, were carried out to estimate the distance between two high-affinity Ca2+-binding/transport sites. Eu3+ was excited directly with pulsed laser light and the energy-transfer efficiency to Nd3+ or Pr3+ was measured, under the conditions in which most donor-acceptor pairs occupied the high-affinity Ca2+ sites. The distance between two high-affinity Ca2+ sites is about 0.89 nm. In the presence of ATP the distance between the high-affinity sites is about 0.855 nm, whereas in the presence of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate or adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imino]triphosphate the distance is about 0.895 nm. To estimate the distance between the high-affinity Ca2+ sites and ATP-binding/hydrolytic site, we have measured the energy-transfer efficiency between Eu3+ and Cr3+-ATP with Eu3+ at the high-affinity Ca2+ sites and Cr3+-ATP at the ATP-binding/hydrolytic site. Our results show that ATP-binding/hydrolytic site is separated by about 2.2 nm from each high-affinity Ca2+ site. 相似文献

Voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels of the aortic cell line A7r5 were studied using 45Ca2+ flux experiments. Ca2+ channels which have been studied belong to the L-type and are very sensitive to inhibitors and activators in the 1,4-dihydropyridine series as well as to (-)desmethoxyverapamil and d-cis-diltiazem. L-type Ca2+ channels in these smooth muscle cells are not affected by cyclic 8-bromo-AMP and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. However, the activity of these channels is strongly depressed after treatment with diacylglycerols (1-oleyl 2-acetylglycerol and 1,2-dioctanoylglycerol). Phorbol esters, which like diacylglycerols are well-known activators of protein kinase C (the Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent enzyme), inhibit 70% of Ca2+ channel activity (K0.5 = 25 nM for phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and K0.5 = 200 nM for phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate). Phorbol esters that are inactive on kinase C are without effect on Ca2+ channel activity. [Arg8]Vasopressin and bombesin, two peptides that are well known for their action on polyphosphoinositide metabolism, inhibit Ca2+ channel activity to the same extent as active phorbol esters (65-70%). Oxytocin has the same type of effect presumably by acting at the V1-receptor. Both effects of [Arg8]vasopressin and oxytocin are suppressed by [1-(beta-mercapto-beta,beta-diethylpropionic acid)4-valine]arginine vasopressin, a specific vasopressin antagonist at the V1-receptor. 相似文献

Oxygen radicals are thought to play an important role in the promotion phase of carcinogenesis and the action of phorbol esters. Inflammatory cells are an abundant source of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) in the body and release large quantities of ROI when exposed to phorbol esters. Both protein kinase C (PKC), the receptor for phorbol esters, and the NADPH oxidase which generates ROI are Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent. We investigated the requirements for Ca2+ and Mg2+ of macrophages from strains of mice sensitive and resistant to the promotion of tumors by phorbol esters. Macrophages from SENCAR mice, which are sensitive to phorbol ester promotion, required much lower levels of Ca2+ or Mg2+ to mount a full respiratory burst, as measured by the release of H2O2 in response to phorbol ester stimulation, than macrophages from C57BL/6 mice, which are resistant to promotion by phorbol esters. Conversely, when the particulate stimulus zymosan was used, there was little difference between macrophages from the two strains in requirements for Ca2+ and Mg2+ to release H2O2. Lowering the concentration of either cation in the absence of the other was more inhibitory than in the presence of the other cation. The studies demonstrate that differences in sensitivity to divalent cations by macrophages from these two strains is selective for phorbol ester stimulation and that lower requirements for Ca2+ and Mg2+ for ROI release correlates with sensitivity to the promotion of tumors by phorbol esters. 相似文献

The second tryptic digestion (TD2) of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase results in the decrease of Ca2+ transport due to uncoupling and the alteration of one of the two high affinity sites to a low affinity site. The eight amino acids adjacent to the tryptic digestion site form a torus with two carboxylic side chains of one aspartic and one glutamic acid for the fast twitch skeletal ATPase and two aspartic acids for the slow twitch/cardiac ATPase toward the inside. The eight amino acid peptides were synthesized for both forms of the ATPase and their binding characteristics were studied with luminescent Eu3+ as a Ca2+ analogue. The data indicate that the peptide binds Eu3+ with 1.0 Eu3+/peptide and strips off two water molecules. The peptide region is a candidate for the Ca2+ transport site of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. 相似文献

The covalent heme attachment has been extensively studied by spectroscopic methods in myeloperoxidase and lactoperoxidase (LPO) but not in eosinophil peroxidase (EPO). We show that heme linkage to the heavy chain is invariably present, whereas heme linkage to the light chain of EPO is present in less than one-third of EPO molecules. Mass analysis of isolated heme bispeptides supports the hypothesis of a heme b linked through two esters to the polypeptide. Mass analysis of heme monopeptides reveals that >90% have a nonderivatized methyl group at the position of the light chain linkage. Apparently, an ester had not been formed during biosynthesis. The light chain linkage could be formed by incubation with hydrogen peroxide, in accordance with a recent hypothesis of autocatalytic heme attachment based on studies with LPO (DePillis, G. D., Ozaki, S., Kuo, J. M., Maltby, D. A., and Ortiz de Montellano P. R. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 8857-8860). By sequence analysis of isolated heme peptides after aminolysis, we unambiguously identified the acidic residues, Asp-93 of the light chain and Glu-241 of the heavy chain, that form esters with the heme group. This is the first biochemical support for ester linkage to two specific residues in eosinophil peroxidase. From a parallel study with LPO, we show that Asp-125 and Glu-275 are engaged in ester linkage. The species with a nonderivatized methyl group was not found among LPO peptides. 相似文献

New 2-chloro-3-formyl quinoline oxime esters were synthesized by the reaction of 2-chloro-3-formyl quinoline oximes with various benzoyl chlorides in the presence of triethyl amine and dichloromethane at 0°C. The DNA photo cleavage studies of some new oxime esters were investigated by neutral agarose gel electrophoresis at different concentrations (40μM and 80μM). Analysis of the cleavage products in agarose gel indicated that few of quinoline oxime esters (3d-i) converted into supercoiled pUC19 plasmid DNA to its nicked or linear form. 相似文献

Synthesis and 13C-NMR spectra of the N-terminal decapeptide sequence of human lymphoblast interferon
The N-terminal sequence 1-10 of interferon HuIFN-alpha(Ly) from human lymphoblasts Ser-Asp-Leu-Pro-Gln-Thr-His-Ser-Leu-Gly (LIF[1-10]) was synthesized by the Merrifield method. N-tert-Butyloxycarbonylglycin was esterified via its cesium salt with a chloro-methylated polystyrene-1% divinylbenzene support yielding a loading of 0.3 mmol/g. Double couplings, each with a five-fold excess of N-protected amino acid, were performed with N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, followed by an acetylation step. N-tert-Butyloxycarbonyl-L-amino acids with O-benzyl protection for serine, threonine, and Nim-2,4-dinitrophenyl protection for histidine, and N-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonylaspartic acid beta-tert-butyl ester were used. N-tert-Butyloxycarbonyl-glutamine was coupled as 4-nitrophenyl ester in the presence of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole. The butyloxycarbonyl groups of the residues 3 to 10 were removed with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane; the 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group was split off with diethylamine. After quantitative hydrazinolysis in dimethylformamide, chromatography on Sephadex LH-20 with methanol and reversed-phase chromatography on silica gel RP-8 with methanol/water 9:1, the decapeptide hydrazide Boc-Ser(Bzl)-Asp(But)-Leu-Pro-Gln-Thr(Bzl)-His-Ser(Bzl)-Leu-Gly-NH-HN2 was isolated in pure state. The partially protected decapeptide was characterized by 13C-NMR spectroscopy, analysed, and linked with poly(L-lysine) (molecular mass 37 300) via its azide and also using m-xylylene diisocyanate. After a deprotection step the polylysine-LIF[1-10] antigens were dialyzed and lyophilized. Furthermore the free decapeptide LIF[1-10] was split-off from the resin using HBr/CF3CO2H, followed by mercaptoethanol treatment. After purification on Sephadex G-15 with 0.1 M acetic acid and on the reversed-phase silicagel RP-8 with methanol/water 9:1 water soluble LIF-[1-10] was obtained in pure state as shown by thin-layer-chromatography, electrophoreses amino acid analysis and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. 相似文献

Sordaricin derivatives possessing a cyclohexane ring appendage attached via an ether, thioether, amine, oxime, ester or amide linkage were synthesized and their antifungal activity was evaluated in vitro. Compounds containing a thioether bond or an oxime bond as a linkage exhibited potent MICs (< or = 0.125 microg/mL) against four Candida albicans strains including azole-low-susceptible strains. They were also active (MIC < or = 0.125 microg/mL) against Candida glabrata. Their in vivo efficacy was confirmed in a murine intravenous infection model with Candida albicans. 相似文献

Highly purified pig myocardium sarcolemma vesicles possess the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity (4.1 mumol Pi/mg protein/hour) and induce the ATP-dependent accumulation of 45Ca2+ (6.0 nmol/mg protein/min). This reaction is not stimulated by oxalate; Ca2+ are released from the vesicles by saponin and Na+ treatment, which suggests that Ca2+ transport against the concentration gradient is induced by myocardium sarcolemma vesicles and not by sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments. The phorbol ester possessing a biological activity of a growth-promoting factor and activating membrane-bound protein kinase C stimulates the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity and the ATP-dependent accumulation of Ca2+, whereas its counterpart devoid of biological activity does not influence Ca2+ transport. Polymixin B, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C, prevents the activating effect of phorbol esters on Ca2+ accumulation inside the vesicles. It is suggested that the ATP-dependent transport of Ca2+ in myocardium sarcolemma is controlled by Ca2+-phospholipid-dependent phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinase C. 相似文献
