The major pentasaccharides Fuc(1-2)[GalNAc(1-3)]Gal(1-4)[Fuc(1-3)]Glc and Fuc(1-2) [Gal(1-3)]Gal(1-4)[Fuc(1-3)]Glc, which are normally present in the urine of bloodgroup A Leb and B Leb healthy subjects, were each found to be contaminated by a minor component when analysed by1H-NMR. The determination of these structures, Fuc(1-2) [GalNAc(1-3)]Gal(1-3)[Fuc(1-4)]Glc and Fuc(1-2) [Gal(1-3)]Gal(1-3)[Fuc(1-4)]Glc, was based on the results of methylation analysis and1H/13C-NMR spectroscopy.Abbreviations HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - GLC gas liquid chromatography - NMR nuclear magnetic resonance - COSY correlation spectroscopy - Gal d-galactopyranose - GalNAc 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactopyranose - Glc d-glucopyranose - Fuc l-fucopyranose - LNDFH I lacto-N-difucohexaose I (Leb determinant  相似文献

The structure of a new nonasaccharide isolated from human milk has been investigated. By using methylation analysis, FAB-MS and1H-and13C-NMR spectroscopy as basic methods of structural investigation, this oligosaccharide was identified as VI2--Fuc,V4-Fuc,III3--Fuc-p-lacto-n-hexaose: Fuc1-2Gal1-3[Fuc1-4]GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4[Fuc1-3]GlcNAc1-3Gal1-4Glc.Abbreviations COSY correlation spectroscope - DP degree of polymerisation - FAB-MS fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - NMR nuclear magnetic resonance - GLC gas-liquid chromatography  相似文献

The 500-MHz1H-NMR characteristics of theN-linked carbohydrate chain Man1-6[Xyl1-2]Man1-4GlcNAc1-4[Fuc1-3]GlcNAc1-NAsn of the proteolytic enzyme bromelain (EC 3.4.22.4) from pineapple stem were determined for the oligosaccharide-alditol and the glycopeptide, obtained by hydrazinolysis and Pronase digestion, respectively. The1H-NMR structural-reporter-groups of the (1–3)-linked fucose residue form unique sets of data for the alditol as well as for the glycopeptide.  相似文献

The tetrasaccharides GalNAcß1-4[NeuAc2-3]Galß1-4Glc and GalNAcß1-4[NeuAc2-3]Galß1-4GlcNAc were synthesised by enzymic transfer of GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to 3-sialyllactose (NeuAc2-3Galß1-4Glc) and 3-sialyl-N-acetyllactosamine (NeuAc2-3Galß1-4GlcNAc). The structures of the products were established by methylation and1H-500 MHz NMR spectroscopy. In Sda serological tests the product formed with 3-sialyl-N-acetyllactosamine was highly active whereas that formed with 3-sialyllactose had only weak activity.  相似文献

Fowl plague virus, strain Dutch, was metabolically labeled withd-[2-3H]mannose, or withd-[6-3H]glucosamine, and the small subunit (HA2; 0.8 mg in total) of the viral hemagglutinin was isolated by preparative sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After proteolytic digestion, the radioactive oligosaccharides were sequentially liberated from the glycopeptides by treatment with different endo--N-acetylglucosaminidases and with peptide:N-glycosidase or, finally, by hydrazinolysis. In this manner, four groups of glycans could be obtained by consecutive gel filtrations and were subfractionated by HPLC. The structures of the individual oligosaccharides were analyzed by micromethylation, by acetolysis or by digestion with exoglycosidases. The major species amongst the high mannose glycans at Ans-406 of the viral glycopolypeptide were found to be Man1-2Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNac1-4GlcNAc and Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc, while the complex glycans at Asn-478 are predominantly GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc (lacking, in part, one of the outerN-acetylglucosamine residues) and GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc.Abbreviation BSA bovine serum albumin - endo D (F,H) endo--N-acetyl-d-glucosaminidase D (F,H) - HA hemagglutinin (HA1, large subunit of HA - HA2 small subunit - FPV fowl plague virus - PNGase F peptide:N-glycosidase F - SDS sodium dodecylsulfate  相似文献

TheN-linked carbohydrate chains of the-subunit of highly purified urinary human chorionic gonadotropin have been re-investigated. The oligosaccharides were released enzymatically by peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl--glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase-F, and fractionated by a combination of FPLC and HPLC. As a result of the application of improved fractionation methods, apart from the earlier reported carbohydrate chains, also small amounts of trisialo tri- and tri-antennary oligosaccharides were found. The primary structures of the latter carbohydrate chains have been determined by 500-MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy to beAbbreviations hCG human chorionic gonadotropin - hCG- -subunit - hCG- -subunit - PNGase-F peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl--glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase-F (E.C. 3.5.1.52) - endo-F endo--N-acetylglucosaminidase-F (E.C. 3.2.1.96) - SDS sodium dodecyl sulphate - PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - CBB coomassie brilliant blue R 250 - GlcNAc N-acetylglucosamine - NeuAc N-acetylneuraminic acid - Man mannose - Gal galactose - Fuc fucose  相似文献

Competition of a number of progesterone 16,17-cycloalkane derivatives with 3H-labeled ligands for the binding sites of rat uterine progesterone receptor, uterine pentaranophilin, and blood serum pentaranophilin was studied. We found that the selective ligands for the progesterone receptor are progesterone, 16,17-cyclopropanoprogesterone, and 16,17-cyclopent-3-enoprogesterone and the selective ligands for serum pentaranophilin are 6-methyl-16,17-cyclohexanopregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione and 3-hydroxy-16,17-cyclohexanopregn-5-en-20-one. No selective ligands for the uterine pentaranophilin were found. The majority of substituents in rings A, B, and D we studied decreased the affinity of ligands for all the three proteins. The substitution of the 5-3-hydroxy grouping for the 4-3-keto grouping exerted the strongest negative effect in the case of the progesterone receptor and the uterine pentaranophilin, whereas the introduction of the 3,4-dimethyl grouping strongly inhibited the ligand affinity for the uterine pentaranophilin. The extent and even the direction of the effect of a substituent on the affinity of ligands for the proteins substantially depended on the presence of other substituents in the steroid molecules. We hypothesized that a certain similarity exists between three proteins studied in respect to the structures of their ligand-binding pockets.  相似文献

We analyzed the effects of nifedipine on a family of recombinant low-threshold Ca2+ channels functionally expressed in Xenopus oocytes and formed by three different subunits (1G, 1H, and 1I). The 1G and 1I channels demonstrated a low sensitivity to nifedipine even in high concentrations (IC50 = 98 and 243 M, maximum blocking intensity Amax = 25 and 47%, respectively). At the same time, the above agent effectively blocked channels formed by the 1H-subunit (IC50 = 5 M and Amax = 41%). The nifedipine-caused effects were voltage-dependent, and their changes depended on the initial state of the channel. In the case of 1G-subunits, the blockade was determined mostly by binding of nifedipine with closed channels, whereas in the cases of 1H- and 1I-subunits this resulted from binding of nifedipine with channels in the activated and inactivated states. The obtained data allow us to obtain estimates of the pharmacological properties of the above three subtypes of recombinant channels and, in the future, to compare these characteristics with the properties of low-threshold Ca2+ channels in native cells.  相似文献

For the structural analysis of the carbohydrate chains ofN-,O-glycoproteins a straightforward strategy was developed based on the cleavage of theN-linked chains with immobilized peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl--glucosaminyl) asparagine amidase-F (PN-Gase-F) fromFlavobacterium meningosepticum, followed by alkaline borohydride treatment of the remainingO-glycoprotein material. This methodology was applied to the isolation of the Asn- and Ser-linked carbohydrate chains of human chorionic gonadotrophin. The structures of the isolated oligosaccharides were verified by 500-MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. The Asn-linked sugar chains were shown to be: NeuAc2-3Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man1-6[NeuAc2-3Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man1-3]Man 1-4GlcNAc1-4[Fuc1-6]0-1GlcNAc and Man1-6[NeuAc2-3Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man 1-3]Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc. Also some minor constituents occurred. The structures of the Ser-linked oligosaccharides were established in the form of their oligosaccharide-alditols as: NeuAc2-3Gal1-3[NeuAc2-6]GalNAc, NeuAc2-3Gal 1-3GalNAc and NeuAc2-3Gal1-3[NeuAc2-3Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6]GalNAc.Abbreviations hCG human chorionic gonadotrophin - hCG- -subunit - hCG- -subunit - ElA enzyme immunoassay - PNGase-F peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl--glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase-F (EC 3.5.1.52) - SDS sodium dodecyl sulphate - GalNAc N-acetylgalactosamine - GlcNAc N-acetylglucosamine - NeuAc N-acetylneuraminic acid - Man mannose - Gal galactose - Fuc fucose  相似文献

Four bi-antennary glycan fractions of theN-acetyllactosamine-type, derived from a Lewis lung carcinoma (LL2) cell subline resistant to theAleuria aurantia agglutinin were studied by 400 MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. By this method, their antennae were found to be terminated either by (2-3 or 6)-linkedN-acetylneuraminic acid or (1-3)-linked galactose residues. The primary structure of glycans of these four glycopeptide or derived oligosaccharide-alditols has been determined in full detail.Abbreviations NAc N-acetyl group - NGc N-glycolyl group - GlcNAc N-acetylglucosamine - NeuAc N-acetylneuraminic acid - NeuGc N-glycolylneuraminic acid - Man mannose - Gal galactose - Fuc fucose - Con A concanavalin A - LCA Lens culinaris agglutinin - AAA Aleuria aurantia agglutinin - WGA Wheat germ agglutinin - RCA II Ricinus communis agglutinin II - PBS phosphate buffered saline, 0.01m Na2HPO4/0.14m NaCl, pH 7.2 - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - EMEM Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium - LecR lectin resistant - MG -methylglycoside  相似文献

Sodium salt of (20R)-3,4-dihydroxycholest-5-ene-21-yl sulfate and disodium salts of (20R)-4-hydroxycholest-5-ene-3,21-diyl disulfate, (20R)-24-methylcholest-5,24(28)-diene-3,21-diyl disulfate, (20R)-24-methyl-5-cholest-24(28)-ene-3,21-diyl disulfate, (20R)-cholest-5-ene-3,21-diyl disulfate, (20R)-5-cholestane-3,21-diyl disulfate, and (20R)-3-hydroxycholest-5-ene-2,21-diyl disulfate were isolated from the far eastern starfish Diplopteraster multipes and characterized. These compounds differ structurally from sulfated polyhydroxysteroids in other starfish species. At the same time, they are typical secondary metabolites of Ophiuroidea and have some structural features characteristic of the ophiuroid-isolated steroids, namely the 3-hydroxy (or 3-sulfoxy) and 21-sulfoxy groups. These data support the opinion of some taxonomists that starfishes and ophiuroids are phylogeneteically related classes and are closer to each other than to other classes of the Echinodermata phylum.  相似文献

Summary Nine independent mutants which are supersensitive (ssl ) to G1 arrest by the mating hormone a-factor were isolated by screening mutagenized Saccharomyces cerevisiae MAT cells on solid medium for increased growth inhibition with a-factor. These mutants carried lesions in two complementation groups, ssl1 and ssl2. Mutations at the ssl1 locus were mating type specific: MAT ssl1 cells were supersensitive to -factor but MAT ssl1 were not supersensitive to -factor. In contrast, mutations at the ssl2. locus conferred supersensitivity to the mating hormone of the opposite mating type on both MAT, and MATa cells. The -cell specific capacity to inactivate externally added a-factor was shown to be lacking in MAT ssl1 mutants whereas MAT ssl2. cells were able to inactivate a-factor. Complementation analysis showed that ssl2 and sst2, a mutation originally isolated as conferring supersensitivity to -factor to MATa cells, are lesions in the same gene. The ssl1 gene was mapped 30.5 centi-Morgans distal to ilv5 on chromosome XII.  相似文献

Incorporation and release of 14C-label in prenylquinones of Chlorella was investigated under steady state conditions. After one hour of 14CO2-photosynthesis all plastid quinones investigated were labeled. The highest label was found in phylloquinone (18%) while -tocopherol exhibits the lowest label (0.38%). Among the plastoquinones, plastohydroquinone-9 shows a higher labeling degree (5.1%) and a faster labeling kinetic than plastoquinone-9 (1.6%). After replacement of 14CO2 against 12CO2 the total radioactivity in plastohydroquinone-9, -tocopherol and phylloquinone decreases but in -tocoquinone and plastoquinone-9 proceeds further. From this labeling kinetic we conclude, that newly synthesized [14C]-tocopherol molecules are converted to [14C]-tocoquinone and [14C]plastohydroquinone-9 molecules to [14C]plastoquinone-9. From their 14C-incorporation kinetic half-lives could be calculated for all prenylquinones in the same ranges as previously found for the chlorophylls and carotenoids (Grumbach et al., 1978). Half-lives are shorter in plastohydroquinone-9 (30 min) and plastoquinone-9 (40 min) than in phylloquinone (55 min), -tocoquinone (50 min) and -tocopherol (220 min). This means that all prenyl-lipids such as chlorophyll a, -and -carotene, plastohydroquinone-9 and plastoquinone-9 which are more directly involved in the process of photosynthesis are subject to a continuous and higher turnover than the xanthophyll and -tocopherol. From the fast labeling kinetic and short half-lives of -tocoquinone and especially phylloquinone with a labeling degree of 12% after one hour of 14CO2 photosynthesis we suppose that perhaps these two prenylquinones are also involved in the photosynthetic activity of chloroplasts.  相似文献

The limited proteolytic pattern of transducin,G t , and its purified subunits with chymotrypsin were analyzed and the cleavage sites on the t subunit were identified. The t subunit in the GTPS bound form was cleaved into a major 38 kD fragment, whereas t -GDP was progressively digested into 38, 23, 21, and 15 kD fragments. The t subunit was not very sensitive to proteolytic digestion with chymotrypsin. The t subunit was not cleaved and only a small portion of t was digested into several fragments. In order to determine which proteolytic fragment of t still contained the carboxyl terminal region, chymotrypsinization was carried out usingG t previously32P-labeled at Cys347 by petrussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation. The32P-label was mainly associated with the t subunit and a 15 kD fragment. The 23 and 21 kD fragments were not32P-labeled. Analysis of amino terminal sequences of 38, 21, and 15 kD proteolytic bands allowed the identification of the major cleavage sites. Chymotrypsin had two cleavage sites in the amino terminal region of t , at Leu15 and Leu19. Chymotrypsin removed 15–19 amino acid residues from the amino terminus of t , generating two peptides (38 kD) which comigrates in gel electrophoresis. Chymotrypsin also cleaved at Trp207 in a conformation-dependent manner. Trp207 of t -GTPS was resistant to proteolysis but t -GDP and the 38 kD fragments of t -GDP produced the 23 and 21 kD fragments, respectively, and a 15 kD fragment containing the carboxyl terminus. This proves that the environment of Trp207 changes when GTP or GTPS is bound, leading to its inaccessibility to chymotrypsin.  相似文献

Functionally active preparations of Na+,K+-ATPase isozymes from calf brain that contain catalytic subunits of three types (1, 2, and 3) were obtained using two approaches: a selective removal of contaminating proteins by the Jorgensen method and a selective solubilization of the enzyme with subsequent reconstitution of their membrane structure by the Esmann method. The ouabain inhibition constants were determined for the isozymes. The real isozyme composition of the Na+ pump from the grey matter containing glial cells and the brain stem containing neurons was determined. The plasma membranes of glial cells were shown to contain mainly Na+,K+-ATPase of the 11 type and minor amounts of isozymes of the 22(1) and the 31(2) type. The axolemma contains 21 and 31 isozymes. A carbohydrate analysis indicated that 11 enzyme preparations from the brain grey matter substantially differ from the renal enzymes of the same composition in the glycosylation of the 1 isoform. An enhanced sensitivity of the 3 catalytic subunit of Na+,K+-ATPase from neurons to endogenous proteolysis was found. A point of specific proteolysis in the amino acid sequence PNDNR492 Y493 was localized (residue numbering is that of the human 3 subunit). This sequence corresponds to one of the regions of the greatest variability in 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-subunits, but at the same time, it is characteristic of the 3 isoforms of various species. The presence of the 3 isoform of tubulin (cytoskeletal protein) was found for the first time in the high-molecular-mass Na+,K+-ATPase 31 isozyme complex isolated from the axolemma of brain stem neurons, and its binding to the 3 catalytic subunit was shown.  相似文献

Two methods of obtaining 3-betulinic acid and related compounds from their 3-epimers were studied: the reaction of bimolecular substitution and the stereoselective reduction of 3-ketoderivatives. The substitution of acyloxy by formyloxy group in 3--tosyllupeol or of the belulin hydroxyl by benzoyloxy group resulted only in 2, 3-elimination products, with none of the expected products of bimolecular substitution being found. The catalytic hydrogenation of betulonic acid over Raney nickel resulted only in reduction of the isopropenyl double bond, whereas the use of 5% Ru/C gave a 60 : 40 mixture of epimers of dihydrobetulinic acid. Practically the same mixture of betulinic acid epimers was obtained when reducing betulonic acid with L-Selectride. The cytotoxic activity of 3-betulinic acid increased toward the Bro melanoma cells and decreased toward the MS melanoma cells.  相似文献

Thirteen species of methanogenic bacteria were analyzed for corrinoids. Pseudo vitamin B12 (Co-[-(7-adenyl)]-cobamide) was the predominant cobamide of methanococcales and Methanoplanus. All other methanogens contained factor III (Co-[-(5-hydroxybenzimidazolyl)]-cobamide). Vitamin B12 (Co-[-(5,6-dimethylbenzimidazolyl)]-cobamide) was not detected in any of these archaebacteria. Their cobamide content was 100 to 1400 nmol per gram cell dry weight, indicating that abundant cobamides are essential for methanogens.  相似文献

The binding of [3H]progesterone and [3H]16,17-cycloalkanoprogesterones to proteins from rat, rabbit, and human uteri and other organs was studied. We found that 16,17-cycloalkanoprogesterone derivatives display affinities for the uterine progesterone receptors comparable with that of the natural hormone and no substantial species differences in the affinity. Rabbit uterus was found to have no proteins distinct from the progesterone receptor that specifically bind [3H]16,17-cycloalkanoprogesterones. At the same time, in the human uterus, we found another protein that binds some of these progesterone derivatives; it turned out to be similar to the protein from rat uterus. A similar protein with the same selectivity and affinity for steroids was also found in rat and human kidneys. Blood serum, liver, lung, and a number of other tissues were found to contain a protein of the third type that binds the same 16,17-cycloalkanoprogesterones and exhibits submicromolar K d values for these steroids and a very low affinity for progesterone. We speculated that the introduction of a bulky substituent adjacently to the 17-side chain of progesterone could result in a change in the general biodynamics of the derivative including its transport, uptake, and accumulation in tissues, which may determine the selectivity of its effect.  相似文献

Acid -l-fucosidase (EC 3.2.1.51) was obtained from human liver and purified to homogeneity. The enzyme consists of four subunits; each of these has a molecular mass of 50 kDa and bears oneN-linked carbohydrate chain. The structures of these chains were studied at the glycopeptide level by methylation analysis and 500-MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. Oligomannoside-type chains andN-acetyllactosamine-type chains are present in an approximate ratio of 31. While the oligomannoside-type chains show some heterogeneity in size (Man5–8GlcNAc2), theN-acetyllactosaminetype chains are exclusively bi-(2–6)-sialyl, bi-antennary in their structure.These observations on the carbohydrate moieties of -l-fucosidase substantiate our hypothesis [Overdijket al. (1986) Glycoconjugate J 3:339–50] with respect to the relationship between the oligosaccharide structure of lysosomal enzymes and their residual intracellular activity in I-cell disease. For the series of enzymes examined so far, namely, -N-acetylhexosaminidase, -l-fucosidase and -galactosidase, the relative amount ofN-acetyllactosamine-type carbohydrate increases, while the residual intracellular activity in I-cell disease tissue decreases in this order. The system which is responsible for preferentially retaining hydrolases with (non-phosphorylated) oligomannoside-type chains both in I-cells and in normal cells has yet to be identified.  相似文献
