Chinchilla "big" and "little" gastrins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Gastrin heptadecapeptides (gastrins I and II which differ in the presence of sulfate on the tyrosine of the latter) have been purified and sequenced from several mammalian species including pig, dog, cat, sheep, cow, human and rat. A 34 amino acid precursor ("big" gastrin), generally accounting for only 5% of total gastrin immunoreactivity, has been purified and sequenced only from the pig, human, dog and goat. Recently we have demonstrated that guinea pig (GP) "little" gastrin is a hexadecapeptide due to a deletion of a glutamic acid in the region 6-9 from its NH2-terminus and that GP "big" gastrin is a 33 amino acid peptide. The chinchilla, like the GP, is a New World hystricomorph. This report describes the extraction and purification of "little" and "big" gastrins from 31 chinchilla antra. Chinchilla "little" gastrin is a hexadecapeptide with a sequence identical to that of the GP and its "big" gastrin is a 33 amino acid peptide with the following sequence: (See text) 相似文献

Gastrin heptadecapeptides (gastrins I and II which differ in the presence of sulfatte on the tyrosine of the latter) have been purified and sequenced from several mammalian species including pig, dog, cat, sheep, cow, human and, more recently, rat. This report describes the purification of “little” gastrin from guinea pig (GP) antra. GP antra were defatted with acetone and the acetone cakes were extracted with 0.1M NH4HCO3. The extract was concentrated by adsorption to DE53 anion exchange cellulose and the peak eluates were fractionated on a Sephadex G5OF column. The peptides were brought to final purity by 3 successive HPLC steps. The GP sequence compared to other species is shown: Guinea Pig A E E E A Pig <E G P W M E E E E E A Y G W M D F Human L Thus GP “little” gastrins I and II are hexadecapeptides due to a deletion of a glutamic acid in the region 6–9 from the N-terminus. 相似文献

1. "Little" gastrins from most mammalian species are 17 amino acid peptides and the precursor "big" gastrins are 34 amino acid peptides. 2. "Little" gastrins of the New World hystricomorphs, guinea-pig and chinchilla, are 16 amino acid peptides due to deletion of a glutamic acid in the region 6-9 from their NH2-terminus and the corresponding "big" gastrins are 33 amino acid peptides. 3. Antral gastrins from the opossum, a New World marsupial, have a glutamic acid deletion in the same region as the hystricomorph gastrins. 4. Opossum "big" gastrin is a 33 amino acid peptide with the following sequence: less than ELGPQDLPYLTADLSKKQGPWLEEEEAYGWMDF#. 相似文献

The concentrations and molecular forms of urinary and plasma gastrin from normal subjects were studied by radioimmunoassays using two region-specific antisera. Urinary concentration of NH2-terminal big gastrin (G-34) immunoreactivity was several hundred times as great as that of COOH-terminal gastrin immunoreactivity. Fractionation of urine extract showed a broad giant peak of NH2-terminal G-34 immunoreactivity (gastrin fragments "U") eluting in a later position than G-34(1-17) by Sephadex G-50 column chromatography. HPLC revealed that urinary NH2-terminal G-34 immunoreactivity was composed of four fragments including G-34(1-8), G-34(1-9), and G-34(1-10). Sephadex G-50 column chromatography of plasma extract revealed two or three peaks of NH2-terminal G-34 immunoreactivity, and a major peak eluted in the same position as urinary gastrin fragments "U". These results and data on renal clearances suggest that most of all gastrin fragments "U" in plasma are excreted in urine without renal reabsorption, whereas almost all of plasma COOH-terminal gastrin peptides including G-34 and little gastrin (G-17) are removed and metabolized in the kidney. 相似文献

Purification and structural characterization of progastrin-derived peptides from a human gastrinoma 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Several peptides derived from the gastrin-predicted preprohormone sequence were isolated from a human gastrinoma by gel permeation, anion exchange, and reverse phase chromatography. The peptides were identified and characterized structurally by a combination of radioimmunoassays, mass spectral analysis, and microsequence analysis. The largest peptide, progastrin-(1-35) (cryptagastrin), extends from the putative processing site for the signal peptidase to the double basic residues adjacent to the amino terminus of gastrin 34. A shorter form of this peptide, progastrin-(6-35) (cryptagastrin-(6-35), was also isolated in smaller amounts. In addition, sulfated and nonsulfated gastrin 17 amides (progastrin-(55-71)) and the glycine-extended nonsulfated gastrin 17 (progastrin-(55-72)) were identified by radioimmunoassay, and their structures were confirmed by mass spectral analysis. Isolation of cryptagastrin indicates that the signal peptide of human preprogastrin contains 21 amino acid residues, and progastrin, therefore, contains 80 amino acids. There is minimal processing of the cryptic peptide preceding the sequence of gastrin 34. An amidated gastrin form larger than gastrin 34 could contain 71 amino acids. No evidence was obtained for processing that would produce gastrins containing more than 34 but less than 71 amino acid residues. 相似文献

Heptadecapeptide gastrins (G17) have been purified and sequenced from a variety of species. However, progastrin (G34) sequences have been determined only for pig and human from purified peptides and for rat from cDNA. Since G34 in most species accounts for only approximately 5% of total antral gastrin, micropurification techniques must be employed to avoid the need for large quantities of antral tissue. Efficient purification methodology yielded 1.5 and 1.3 nmol of G34 from the antrum of a single goat and of a single dog, respectively. The N-terminal pyroglutamyl residues were enzymatically removed and the peptides were sequenced through to the proximity of their COOH-termini. The COOH-terminal sequences of goat and dog G34 were confirmed by sequencing the corresponding deblocked G17 from each animal. The previously published dog G17 sequence was shown to be incorrect. The sequences for dog and goat G34 are: Dog less than ELGLQGPPQLVADLSKKQGPWMEEEEAAYGWMDF# Goat less than ELGLQDPPHMVADLSKKQGPWVEEEEAAYGWMDF# Dog and goat gastrins differ in 3 sites in the 17 amino acid NH2-terminus and only a single site in G17 (the sites of differences are underlined). The ratio for sulfated to non-sulfated antral G17 is 9:1 for the goat and 1:9 for the dog. 相似文献

Kassinatuerin-1 (GFMKYIGPLI(10)PHAVKAISDL(20)I.NH(2)) was isolated in high yield (75 nmol/g) from an extract of the skin of a Hyperoliid frog, the African running frog Kassina senegalensis and its sequence was confirmed by total synthesis. The peptide inhibited growth of the gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC = 4 microM), the gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 8 microM), and the yeast Candida albicans (MIC = 70 microM). A structurally related peptide, kassinatuerin-2 (FIQYLAPLI(10)PHAVKAISDL(20)I.NH(2)) was also isolated in high yield (96 nmol/g) from the extract but was devoid of antimicrobial activity against these microrganisms. Kassinatuerin-1 may be classified with other linear, cationic antimicrobial peptides that can potentially adopt an amphipathic alpha-helical conformation but it contains almost no amino acid sequence identity with previously characterized bioactive peptides from frog skin. 相似文献

Mammalian vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has been reported to be identical in four species. This report describes the extraction of guinea pig (GP) intestinal VIP, its purification and sequence. Frozen intestines were extracted in five volumes of methanol and the methanol cakes reextracted with acid. VIP in the acid extract was concentrated onto ion-exchange cellulose and was brought to final purity through a series of HPLC steps. GP VIP differs from other mammalian VIP's by four amino acid substitutions: (sequence in text) This is further evidence that the GP gastroenteropancreatic axis has a unique evolutionary separation from other mammals. 相似文献

Antimicrobial peptides from the skin of the Japanese mountain brown frog, Rana ornativentris. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Six peptides with antimicrobial activity were isolated from an extract of freeze-dried skin of the Japanese mountain brown frog Rana ornativentris. Two structurally related peptides (brevinin-20a GLFNVFKGALKTAGKHVAGSLLNQLKCKVSGGC, 11 nmol/g dried tissue, and brevinin-20b GIFNVFKGALKTAGKHVAGSLLNQLKCKVSGEC, 170 nmol/g) belong to the brevinin-2 family, previously identified in Asian and European, but not North American, Ranid frogs. Four peptides (temporin-10a FLPLLASLFSRLL.NH2, 13 nmol/g; temporin-10b FLPLIGKILGTI L.NH2, 350 nmol/g; temporin-10c FLPLLASLFSRLF.NH2, 14 nmol/g; and temporin-10d FLPLLASLFSGLF.NH2, 8 nmol/g) are members of the temporin family first identified in the European common frog Rana temporaria but also found in the skins of North American Ranids. The brevinin-2 peptides showed broad-spectrum activity against the gram-positive bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus, the gram-negative bacterium, Escherichia coli and the yeast Candida albicans, whereas the temporins showed potent activity only against S. aureus. The brevinins and temporins belong to the class of cationic antimicrobial peptides that adopt an amphipathic alpha-helical conformation but it is significant that temporin-10d, which lacks a basic amino acid residue, is still active against S. aureus (minimum inhibitory concentration=13 microM compared with 2 microM for temporin-10a). This suggests that strong electrostatic interaction between the peptide and the negatively charged phospholipids of the cell membrane is not an absolute prerequisite for antimicrobial activity. 相似文献

Scyliorhinin I and II: two novel tachykinins from dogfish gut 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Two peptides with tachykinin-like ability to contract longitudinal muscle from the guinea pig ileum were isolated from the intestine of the common dogfish, Scyliorhinus caniculus. The amino acid sequence of scyliorhinin I was established as Ala-Lys-Phe-Asp-Lys-Phe-Tyr-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2 and this peptide cross-reacted with antisera directed against the C-terminal region fo substance P. The amino acid sequence of scyliorhinin II was established as Ser-Pro-Ser-Asn-Ser-Lys-Cys-Pro-Asp-Gly-Pro-Asp-Cys-Phe-Val-Gly-Leu-Met- NH2 and this peptide cross-reacted with antisera directed against the C-terminal region of neurokinin A. The mammalian peptides substance P and neurokinin A were absent from the dogfish intestinal tissue. 相似文献

The trypsin-sensitive cholecystokinin-releasing peptide is a peptide purified from rat pancreatic juice on the basis of its stimulatory activity toward pancreatic enzyme secretion. We postulate that the peptide acts as a mediator of pancreatic enzyme secretion in response to dietary protein intake and that it (designated as "monitor peptide" from its role in the intestine) could be responsible for the feedback regulation of pancreatic enzyme secretion. About 20 nmol of the highly purified peptide were obtained from 800 ml of rat pancreatic juice by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. It was then sequenced. The peptide comprises 61 amino acid residues (Table I). It has a sequence that closely resembles that of a highly conserved region in pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitors (PSTIs, Kazal type inhibitor): -Ile-Tyr-Asx-Pro-Val-Cys-Gly-Thr-Asx-Gly-. However, the peptide is less related to other mammalian PSTIs than they are to each other. The additional 5 residues at the NH2 terminus make the peptide larger than the common 56-residue PSTIs. The trypsin-sensitive cholecystokinin-releasing peptide is to be classified as a Kazal-type inhibitor and may be one of the rat PSTIs or a related peptide. The present results and increasing evidence from other laboratories and ours suggest that Kazal-type inhibitors play previously unrecognized multiple physiological roles. 相似文献

Guinea pig (GP) acrosin was purified following acid extraction of testicular acetone powder, pH precipitation of the soluble extract, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, ion-exchange chromatography on SP-Sephadex, and affinity chromatography on Concanavalin A-Sepharose. Final purification was achieved by re-chromatography on Sephadex G-100. Enzymatic activity was detected by following the hydrolysis of N-benzyloxycarbonylarginyl amide of 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin at 37 degrees C, pH 8.0, before and after activation. GP testicular acrosin exhibited a molecular weight of 48,000 by gel filtration and 34,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Following SDS-PAGE in gels containing 0.1% gelatin, protease activity was observed to comigrate with the major protein detected by silver staining. The purified GP acrosin showed cross-reactivity with a monospecific polyclonal rabbit antiserum directed against boar sperm acrosin and exhibited reversible pH-dependent activation. The physiochemical characteristics of the purified protein, including the amino acid composition, resemble those reported for acrosins from other species. 相似文献

The heptadecapeptide form the rabbit gastrin was extracted from 16 rabbit antra and purified by a combination of DEAE Sephadex, C-18 SEP PAK cartridges, fast performance liquid chromatography (FPLC) and reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) steps. After the HPLC purification, a sharp, single peak of gastrin-like immunoreactivity was detected that had the same absorption to immunoreactivity ratio as human gastrin. An amino terminal pyrrolidone carboxylic acid blocking group was removed by incubation with pyrrolidone carboxylic peptidase. The amino acid analysis, microsequence analysis and mass spectrometry all confirmed the structure of rabbit gastrin being pQGPWLQEEEEAYGWMDFamide. This sequence is identical to human gastrin-17 except for glutamine in position 6 which replaces glutamate in human gastrin. Both sulfated and unsulfated rabbit gastrin-17 were characterized by mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Bovine and feline gastrin cDNA sequences and the amino acid and nucleotide sequence homologies among mammalian species. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The complete nucleotide sequences of cDNAs encoding bovine and feline preprogastrins have been cloned from the antral mucosa mRNA. The gastrin mRNA of each animal encodes a preprogastrin of 104 amino acids consisting of a signal peptide, a prosegment of 37 amino acids, and a gastrin 34 sequence, followed by a glycine (the amide donor). The cleavage following a pair of lysine residues yields gastrin 17. We found that pairs of arginine residues flanking gastrin 34, the typical processing site sequence of all other preprogastrins and many peptide hormones, were arginines in the bovine preprogastrin, but the first basic amino acid pair had changed to Arg-Trp (57-58 residues) instead of Arg-Arg in the feline preprogastrin. Comparison of these amino acid and nucleotide sequences with published mammalian sequences showed extensive homology in the coding (63 to 73% amino acid identity) and in the untranslated regions (67 to 89% identity). Prosequence, the most variable region, shows greater amino acid difference between bovine and human preprogastrin (54% identity), and between bovine and rat preprogastrin (54% identity) than between other species (62 to 82% identity). 相似文献

The molecular species of gastrin in the circulation and in tumor extracts were studied in two groups of patients: (1) with benign gastrinoma and (2) with gastrinoma with liver metastases. Radioimmunoassays (RIAs) and immunoaffinity chromatography for the amino (NH2)- and amidated COOH-terminus of gastrin-17 (antiserum G17) and the NH2-terminus of gastrin-34 (antiserum G34) were employed. In both benign and metastatic tumors the molecular forms of gastrin in boiling water extracts measured by the gastrin-17 NH2- and COOH-terminal assays were similar. In addition to a molecular component resembling the amidated gastrin-17, there were also significant amounts of larger molecular weight (mol. wt.) forms. The larger mol. wt. forms absorbed by the NH2-terminus of G17 antiserum corresponded to the COOH-terminus-extended forms of gastrin-17. Furthermore, larger mol. wt. gastrins immunopurified by antiserum to the NH2-terminus of gastrin-34 corresponded to gastrin-34 extended molecules. Sera of patients with liver metastases had higher concentrations of the NH2-terminal of gastrin-17 whereas sera of patients with benign gastrinoma contained predominantly gastrins detected by the COOH-terminal assay. These results suggest that: (a) there are differences in the molecular pattern of gastrin in the circulation of patients with benign and metastatic gastrinomas; (b) gastrins which are fully processed with carboxy-terminal amidation predominate in the circulation of patients with benign gastrinoma; and (c) gastrins containing the gastrin-17 and COOH-terminally extended gastrin-17 and gastrin-34 precursor molecules occur in high concentration in the circulation of gastrinoma patients with metastases to the liver. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that extremely high amounts of N-terminal big gastrin (G-34) fragments are excreted in human urine and three of them are N-terminal octa-, nona-, and decapeptide of G-34. Our subsequent examination revealed that there exists a considerable amount of another N-terminal G-34 fragment in urine, less hydrophobic than the three peptides. We purified this fragment from urine of an achlorhydric patient and determined the structure: less than Glu-Leu-Gly-Pro-Gln-Gly. The purification was carried out by Sep-Pak C18 cartridges, Sephadex G-25, and reverse phase HPLC. The structure was determined by a combination of amino acid analysis, amino acid sequence analysis, and mass spectral analysis. N-terminal hexapeptide of G-34 is the second richest component of urinary N-terminal G-34 fragments next to N-terminal octapeptide of G-34 in normal subjects. 相似文献

Guinea pig (GP) pancreatic polypeptide (PP) has been purified from an acid-alcohol extract of 6 GP pancreata by a series of 3 HPLC steps. The sequence for GP PP as compared with that of beef and human is shown: (Sequence: see text). In a single GP pancreas weighing 2.4 g the total PP content was 1.0 nmol and the total glucagon content 61 nmol; in a single dog pancreas weighing 35 g the total PP was 385 nmol and the total glucagon 81 nmol. The relatively low content of PP in GP pancreas is consistent with the fact that the GP lacks a ventral pancreas, the region in which PP is found in highest concentration. The high glucagon content of GP pancreas is consistent with that reported in earlier studies. 相似文献

A simple method of isolation of highly purified prolactin from acetonated preparations of anterior hypophysial lobes is described. The new method permits to obtain higher (about 10-fold) yields of the hormone, as compared to those obtained using previously described methods. Prolactin was extracted by acid aqueous acetone and was subsequently purified of extract by fractionation with acetone and NaCl and by isoelectric precipitation. The final stage of the hormone purification involved gel-filtration through Sephadex G-200; prolactin yield was 400 microgram per 1 hypophysis. The lactogenic activity of the hormone is 14 MU/mg; the sequence of N-terminal amino acid residues of prolactin is as follows: NH2-Leu-Pro-Ile-x-Pro-Leu(?)-Gly-Ala-. 相似文献
