A soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO: EC 1.14.13.25) was purified from a type II obligate methanotroph, Methylocystis sp. M. Ion exchange chromatography elution separated the sMMO into three components, I, II, and III. Components II and III were purified to homogeneity and were essential for the sMMO activity. Components II and III had molecular masses of approximately 233,000 and 39,000, respectively. Component II consisted of three subunits with molecular masses of 55,000, 44,000, and 21,000, which appeared to be present in stoichiometric amounts, suggesting a (αβγ)2 configuration in the native protein. Component II contained 1–4 mol of iron and was considered to be a hydroxylase. Component III was a flavoprotein, which contained 1 mol of FAD as well as 1–2mol of iron. It catalyzed the reduction of K3Fe(CN)6 and 2,6-dichloroindophenol by NADH. Component I, which was partially purified and not essential for sMMO activity, stimulated the activity by about 11-fold. Its stimulation could be replaced by addition of Fe2+. The molecular mass of the partially purified component I was estimated to be from 35,000 to 40,000 based on gel filtration, which suggested the presence of a new type of regulatory protein of sMMO. 相似文献

Summary Two transmembrane serine-threonine kinases (type I and II receptors), a membrane-anchored proteoglycan (type III), and a homodimeric
ligand participate in the transforming growth factor beta type on (TGFβ1) signal transduction complex. The expression of recombinant
receptors in insect cells co-infected with up to three recombinant baculoviruses was employed to study interactions among
the ectodomains of the three types of receptors and the TGFβ1 ligand in absence of uncontrollable extrinsic factors in mammalian
cells. Multi-subunit complexes were assembled in intact cells and purified on glutathione-conjugated beads for analysis by
tagging one of the subunits with glutathione S-transferase (GST). Intrinsic ligand-independent interactions were observed
among receptor subunits as follows: type III–III type I–I, type III-I, and type II-I. The homeotypic complex of type II–II
receptors and the heterotypic type III-II interaction was ligand dependent. The type I, but not the type III, subunit displaced
about 50% of the type II component in either ligand-dependent homomeric type II-type II complexes or heteromeric type III-type
II complexes to form type II-I or type III-II-I oligomers, respectively. The type II subunit displaced type I subunits in
oligomers of the type I subunit. Specificity of type I receptors may result from differential affinity for the type II receptor
rather than specificity for ligand. A monomeric subunit of the TGFβ1 ligand bound concurrently to type III and type II or
type III and type I receptors, but failed to concurrently bind to the type II and type I subunits. The binding of TGFβ1 to
the type I kinase subunit appears to require an intact disulfide-linked ligand dimer in the absence of a type III subunit.
The combined results suggest a pentameric TGFβ signal transduction complex in which one unit each of the type III, type II,
and type I components is assembled around the two subunits of the dimeric TGFβ1 ligand. An immobilized GST-tagged subunit
of the receptor complex was utilized to assemble multi-subunit complexesin vitro and to study the phosphorylation events among subunits in the absence of extrinsic cell-derived kinases. The results revealed
that (a) a low level of ligand-independent autophosphorylation occurs in the type I kinase; (b) a high level of autophosphorylation
occurs in the type II kinase; (c) both the type III and type I subunits aretrans-phosphorylated by the type II subunit; and (d) the presence of both type I and II kinases complexed with the type III subunit
and dimeric TGFβ1 ligand in a pentameric complex causes maximum phosphorylation of all three receptor subunits. 相似文献

Arthrobotrys amerospora ATCC 34468 produced glucoamylase in a medium containing maize starch as carbon source. On native PAGE, crude glucoamylase showed three isoenzymes which were designated as Glu I, Glu II, Glu III according to their electrophoretic mobility. These were purified by column chromatography techniques. The energy of binding for each glucoamylase was calculated using Hiromi's kinetic based calculation. At subsite 1, the binding energies for Glu I, II and III were found to be negative. 相似文献

An alkalophilic Streptomyces strain, KSM-9, producing extracellular cellulases was isolated from soil. Three kinds of cellulases that preferentially hydrolyzed carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) were purified from the strain and designated as CMCase I, II and III. The optimum pH of CMCase I (Mr, 32,000) is 8.5 while those of CMCase II (Mr, 32,500) and III (Mr, 92,000) are at around pH 6.0. CMCase I hydrolyzed CMC in a more random fashion than the other two enzymes. 相似文献

Soybean chloroplast DNAs (cpDNAs) are classified into three types (I, II and III) based on RFLP profiles. Type I is mainly
observed in cultivated soybean (Glycine max), while type II and type III are frequently found in both cultivated and wild soybean (Glycine soja), although type III is predominant in wild soybean. In order to evaluate the diversity of cpDNA and to determine the phylogenetic
relationship among different chloroplast types, we sequenced nine non-coding regions of cpDNA for seven cultivated and 12
wild soybean accessions with different cpDNA types. Eleven single-base substitutions and a deletion of five bases were detected
in a total of 3849 bases identified. Five mutations distinguished the accessions with types I and II from those with type
III, and seven were found in the accessions with type III, independently of their taxa. Four species of the subgenus Glycine shared bases that were identical to those with types I and II at two of the five mutation sites and shared bases that were
identical to those with type III at the remaining three sites. Therefore, the different cpDNA types may not have originated
monophyletically, but rather may have differentiated from a common ancestor in different evolutionary directions. A neighbor-joining
tree resulting from the sequence data revealed that the subgenus Soja connected with Glycine microphylla which formed a distinct clade from Clycine clandestina and the tetraploid cytotypes of Glycine tabacina and Glycine tomentella. Several informative length mutations of 54 to 202 bases, due to insertions or deletions, were also detected among the species
of the genus Glycine.

Three aryl alcohol oxidases (AAOs; EC 1.1.3.7) I, II, and III from the culture filtrate of a strain of white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus were purified by multistep chromatography. Each of the purified AAOs I, II, and III had the same molecular masses of 70 kDa
and 72 kDa on gel filtration chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. Their
optimum temperature was 40°C, but their optimum pHs differed slightly. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of AAOs I, II, and
III was determined to be Ala-Asp-Lys-Asp-Tyr-Ile-Val-Val-Gly-Ala, which showed significant similarity to those of Pleurotus eryngii (80% identity) and Pleurotus ostreatus Florida (60% identity).

Twenty bacteria were isolated from four ant lion larvae. The isolates were classified into three groups by biological characteristics. Since Group I, Group II and Group III were isolated from individual larvae Kuo1, Kuo3, 4 and Kuo2, respectively, with exception of one isolate Kuo2‐1, each ant lion tested had its own dominant bacterial flora. Groups I and II were closer to Serratia liquefaciens and Enterobacter cloacae, respectively, whereas Group III could not be identified by the test used. The phylogenetic analysis of GroEL amino acid sequences revealed that Group I, II and III were related to those of Serratia spp., E. cloacae and Salmonella spp. –Escherichia/Shigella spp., respectively. Among these groups, Group I was highly virulent against Bombyx mori and Periplaneta americana, and caused 100% mortality within 24 h. The other two groups (Group II and III) were avirulent to these insect species. The culture filtrate of Group I caused killing activity to B. mori larvae and the insecticidal substance was purified from culture filtrate of Group I bacterium. Since the insecticidal activity highly correlated with proteolytic activity in the chromatographies, Group I bacterium may secret insecticidal proteinase in vitro. 相似文献

Background
Restriction-modification systems are a diverse class of enzymes. They are classified into four major types: I, II, III and IV. We have previously proposed the existence of a Thermus sp. enzyme family, which belongs to type II restriction endonucleases (REases), however, it features also some characteristics of types I and III. Members include related thermophilic endonucleases: TspGWI, TaqII, TspDTI, and Tth111II. 相似文献9.
1. Pyruvate kinase from the rumen ciliates genus Entodinium was partially purified and the enzymatic properties were investigated. 2. Three types of pyruvate kinase (type I, II and III) on DEAE-cellulose column were eluted with a linear gradient of KCl. The enzymatic properties differed among the types of enzyme, especially type I and type III displayed different kinetic properties to each other. The enzymatic property of type II enzyme was an intermediate between type I and III. 3. The principal enzyme, type I, required a divalent cation, Mg2+ and was activated with AMP and FDP. ATP was a potent inhibitor. The saturation curves for the substrates, PEP and ADP, were hyperbolic and Km values were 0.15 and 0.27 mM, respectively. 相似文献

Immunochemistry of the Cell Walls of Listeria monocytogenes 总被引:9,自引:2,他引:7
The antigenic specificity of Listeria monocytogenes types I, II, III, IVa, and IVb was studied by immunochemical techniques. Immunologically active carbohydrates of the various types were extracted from cell walls and were chemically analyzed. Types I and II contained predominantly glucosamine and rhamnose; type III, galactose, rhamnose, and glucosamine; and types IVa and IVb, glucose and galactose. Quantitative precipitin inhibition tests with purified monosaccharides indicated that the major antigenic determinant of types I and II is rhamnose. Precipitin reactions could not be detected with type III carbohydrate and homologous or heterologous antisera. The major determinants of types IVa and IVb were found to be galactose and glucose, respectively. As much as 87% inhibition of the quantitative precipitin test for types I and II was obtained with rhamnose, 72% for type IVa with galactose, and 72% for type IVb with glucose. The immunochemical basis for the antigenic specificity of L. monocytogenes types I, II, IVa, and IVb was further confirmed by using agar gel diffusion. Cross-reactions among the various type-specific carbohydrates and heterologous antisera were also studied. Type II carbohydrate was found to contain galactose and react with type IVa antisera. This reaction could be blocked by galactose. Type I carbohydrate did not contain galactose nor did it react with antiserum prepared from type IVa cells. Therefore, the somatic antigens of type I and type II L. monocytogenes, previously thought to be identical, appeared to differ. The dominant immuno-specific group in the cross-reaction between type IVb carbohydrate and type IVa antisera was found to be galactose. Type IVa absorbed antisera did not produce a significant cross-reaction with type IVb carbohydrate. The results obtained from this investigation indicate a lesser degree of antigenic relationship between type IVa and type IVb L. monocytogenes than was previously believed to exist. 相似文献

We have usedDrosophila melanogaster as a model system for the transgenic expression of cystine-rich Type II antifreeze protein (AFP) from sea raven. This protein was synthesized and secreted into fly haemolymph where it migrated as a larger species (16 kDa) than the mature form of the protein (14 kDa) as judged by immunoblotting.Drosophila-produced Type II AFP demonstrated antifreeze activity both in terms of thermal hysteresis (0.13 °C) and inhibition of ice recrystallization. Recombinant AFP was purified and N-terminal sequencing revealed a 17 aa extension that began at the predicted signal peptide cleavage point. The expression of all three AFP types in transgenicDrosophila has now been achieved. We conclude that the globular Type II and Type III AFPs are better choices for antifreeze transfer to other organisms than is the more widely used linear Type I AFP. 相似文献

Three Acid phosphatases (ACP) were isolated and characterized from the lysosomes of blood stream forms of Trypanosoma brucei by a combination of isopynic and differential centrifugation through Ficoll, organic solvent precipitation, ion exchange on DEAE cellulose 52 and size exclusion chromatography on Sephadex G-75 columns. The purified ACP emerged as three distinct peaks (ACP I, ACP II and ACP III) with high specific activities and they moved homogenously on 12% SDS-PAGE each as a single band with relative molecular weight of 36 kDa, 25 kDa and 45 kDa respectively. The purified enzymes were active at an optimum pH and temperature of 5.5 and 40 °C respectively. The enzyme activities appeared to be ACP because their activities were enhanced at low pH values and inhibited by the acid phosphatase inhibitor, sodium fluoride. ACP I and ACP II were sensitive to l-tartrate while ACP III was insensitive to l tartrate. The kinetic analysis of the purified enzyme (ACP I, ACP II and ACP III) determined using para-nitrophenylphosphate as substrate gave KM values of 0.2 mM, 0.15 mM and 0.5 mM. Monofunctional group sulfhydryl group inhibitors; HgCl2, and AgCl2 strongly inhibited the activity of ACP III and millimolar concentrations of dithiothreitol and iodoacetamide activated and inhibited the activity of the ACP III respectively, suggesting the involvement of thiol groups at the active site of the enzyme. Thus, differentiating it from ACP I and ACP II. The implication of these findings in relation to the pathology of trypanosomosis is discussed. 相似文献

A third xylanase (Xyn III) from Trichoderma reesei PC-3–7 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatographies. The enzyme had a
molecular mass of 32 kDa, and its isoelectric point was 9.1. The pH optimum of Xyn III was 6.0, similar to that of Xyn II,
another basic xylanase of T. reesei. The purified Xyn III showed high activity with birchwood xylan but no activity with cellulose and aryl glycoside. The hydrolysis
of birchwood xylan by Xyn III produced mainly xylobiose, xylotriose and other xylooligosaccharides. The amino acid sequences
of the N-terminus and internal peptides of Xyn III exhibited high homology with the family F xylanases, showing that they
were distinct from those of Xyn I and Xyn II of T. reesei, which belong to family G. These results reveal that Xyn III is a new specific endoxylanase, differing from Xyn I and Xyn
II in T. reesei. It is noteworthy that this novel xylanase was induced only by cellulosic substrates and l-sorbose but not by xylan and its derivarives. Furthermore, T. reesei PC-3-7 produced Xyn III in quantity when grown on Avicel or lactose as a carbon source, while T. reesei QM9414 produced little or no Xyn III.

Summary Three individual serine proteinases (I, II, III) originating from Antarctic krill (E. superba) were separated and highly purified using a combination of affinity and high resolution ion exchange chromatography. Each enzyme showed a single protein band (30 000 Daltons) in sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis indicating high purity and identical molecular weights. Moreover, each enzyme demonstrated one immunoprecipitate on crossed immunoelectrophoresis (two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis) using polyclonal rabbit antibodies which confirmed the high purity of the individual enzymes. A mixture of the three enzymes (I, II, III) revealed two immunoprecipitates, not one or three which should have been the case for identical or non-identical immunological properties. Double immunodiffusion test according to Ouchterlony exhibited immunological identity between enzyme II and III. Enzyme I showed only partial identity with II/III. These findings correlated well with biochemical data on the three serine proteinases. Enzyme I is able to liberate free amino acids from polypeptides in comparison with enzyme II and III (classical true endopeptidases), which do not. We suggest that these unique biochemical properties also have their immunological counterpart expressed as other antigenic determinants of the molecular structure. 相似文献

Three kinds of α-glucosidases, I, II, and III, were purified from European honeybees, Apis mellifera L. In addition, an α-glucosidase was also purified from honey. Some properties, including the substrate specificity of honey α-glucosidase, were almost the same as those of α-glucosidase III. Specific antisera against the α-glucosidases were prepared to examine the localization of α-glucosidases in the organs of honeybees. It was immunologically confirmed for the first time that α-glucosidase I was present in ventriculus, and α-glucosidase II, in ventriculus and haemolymph. α-Glucosidase III, which became apparent to be honey α-glucosidase, was present in the hypopharyngeal gland, from which the enzyme may be secreted into nectar gathered by honeybees. Honey may be finally made up through the process whereby sucrose in nectar, in which glucose and fructose also are naturally contained, is hydrolyzed by secreted α-glucosidase III. 相似文献

Three major curcuminoids (I, II and III) were purified from turmeric and tested for their ability to modulate the function
of P-glycoprotein ATPase of the insecticide-resistant pest Helicoverpa armigera (Ha-Pgp). The curcumin mixture inhibited the activity of Ha-Pgp ATPase by 80–90% at 100 μM concentration. Along with curcuminoids
I, II and III, it inhibited the verapamil- and ethylparaoxon-stimulated Ha-Pgp ATPase activity. Curcuminoid binding was quantitated
by quenching the intrinsic Trp fluorescence of purified Ha-Pgp ATPase. Transport was monitored in proteoliposomes containing
Ha-Pgp ATPase using the high-affinity fluorescent substrate tetramethylrosamine (TMR) in real time. Addition of the curcuminoid
mixture collapsed the TMR concentration gradient generated by Ha-Pgp ATPase. Inhibition studies on Ha-Pgp ATPase activity
are important to develop strategies to overcome insecticide resistance in this pest. 相似文献

Erwinia carotovora Er produces three extra-cellular pectate lyases (PL I, II, and III). The gene for peetate lyase II (pelII) of E. carotovora Er was cloned and expressed both in Escherichia coli and E. carotovora Er. Localization experiments in E. coli showed that PL II was exclusively in the cytoplasmic space, while PL II was excreted into the culture medium. The complete nucleotides of the pelII gene were sequenced and found to include one open reading frame of 1122 bp coding for a protein of 374 amino acid residues. From comparison of the N-terminal amino acid sequence between the purified PL II and the deduced protein from the nucleotide sequence we reached the conclusion that the mature protein is composed of 352 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 38,169 and is preceded by a typical signal sequence of 22 amino acid residues. PL II had 90.1 % and 82.9% homologies with PL I and PL III in amino acid sequence, respectively. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen of humans and animals. The majority of human listeriosis cases are caused by strains of lineages
I and II, while lineage III strains are rare and seldom implicated in human listeriosis. We revealed by 16S rRNA sequencing
the special evolutionary status of L. monocytogenes lineage III, which falls between lineages I and II strains of L. monocytogenes and the non-pathogenic species L. innocua and L. marthii in the dendrogram. Thirteen lineage III strains were then characterized by polyphasic approaches. Biochemical reactions demonstrated
8 biotypes, internalin profiling identified 10 internal-in types clustered in 4 groups, and multilocus sequence typing differentiated
12 sequence types. These typing schemes show that lineage III strains represent the most diverse population of L. monocytogenes, and comprise at least four subpopulations IIIA-1, IIIA-2, HIB, and IIIC. The in vitro and in vivo virulence assessments showed that two lineage IIIA-2 strains had reduced pathogenicity, while the other lineage III strains
had comparable virulence to lineages I and II. The HIB strains are phylogenetically distinct from other sub-populations, providing
additional evidence that this sublineage represents a novel lineage. The two biochemical reactions L-rhamnose and L-lactate
alkalinization, and 10 internalins were identified as potential markers for lineage III subpopulations. This study provides
new insights into the biodiversity and population structure of lineage III strains, which are important for understanding
the evolution of the L. mono-cytogenes-L. innocua clade. 相似文献

Background
Primary diagnostic cultures from patients with melioidosis demonstrate variation in colony morphology of the causative organism, Burkholderia pseudomallei. Variable morphology is associated with changes in the expression of a range of putative virulence factors. This study investigated the effect of B. pseudomallei colony variation on survival in the human macrophage cell line U937 and under laboratory conditions simulating conditions within the macrophage milieu. Isogenic colony morphology types II and III were generated from 5 parental type I B. pseudomallei isolates using nutritional limitation. Survival of types II and III were compared with type I for all assays. 相似文献20.

Three different types of proteinase inhibitors, I, II and III, were fractionated from Japanese radish seed by repeated column chromatographies on SE- and CM-cellulose. The finally purified preparation of inhibitor III was found to be homogeneous by both chromatographic and electrophoretic analyses. All three of them strongly and stoichiometrically inhibited trypsin whereas they showed weak inhibition on other proteinases, such as chymotrypsin, Nagarse and Pronase. From nitrogen content and ultraviolet absorption spectra, each of the inhibitors I and III was confirmed to be a protein. The molecular weights of inhibitors I and III were calculated to be 8000 and 12,000, respectively. These inhibitors were stable at temperatures above 90°C in an acidic pH. 相似文献
