Copolymers of N,N-diethylacrylamide and N-acryloylphthalimide with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) were synthesized by radical copolymerization. Polymeric systems with antithrombin activity and an LCST were prepared via a reaction of amino groups of hirudin with phthalimide groups of the copolymers. On increasing hirudin content, the LCST of the polymeric systems increased. The antithrombin activity of polymeric systems obtained by hirudin immobilization on copolymer carriers was inversely related to the content of the copolymer, amounting to 6% of the activity of native hirudin.  相似文献

Hirullin P18 is a 61-amino acid hirudin-related protein having potent antithrombin activity. Similar to hirudin, it contains a highly acidic C-terminus, but has a significantly different sequence from any other known hirudin variant. The present study demonstrates that the C-terminal fragment acetyl-hirullin P18(41-62) [corrected] possesses an antithrombin potency similar to that of acetyl-desulfatohirudin(45-65). Additionally, like the hirudin fragment analog, it inhibits fibrin-clot formation by binding to a non-catalytic site on thrombin. Sequential shortening of the hirullin P18 C-terminal fragment demonstrates the critical nature of Phe51, which corresponds to the important Phe56 residue of hirudin. Although the sequences of hirullin P18(54-61) and hirudin(59-65) have substantial differences, the C-terminal functional domain represented by hirullin P18(50-61) appears to be comparable to hirudin(55-65) in terms of its functional role in antithrombin activity.  相似文献

Hirudin is a specific polypeptide thrombin inhibitor consisting of 65 amino acids that is produced by the leech, Hirudo medicinalis. We describe a rapid method for the purification of hirudin from a leech extract. Crude hirudin, purchased from a commercial source, was first fractionated on a DEAE-HPLC column using a salt gradient. Hirudin activity was monitored by inhibition of the thrombin-mediated hydrolysis of a synthetic substrate H-D-Phenylalanyl-Pipecolyl-Arginine-p-Nitroanilide. The fractions containing antithrombin activity were pooled and further purified by reverse-phase HPLC. The homogeneity of purified hirudin was confirmed by a single amino-terminal sequence for 43 residues with Val-Val as the first two amino acids. Residue 33 was Asn rather than Asp as reported previously.  相似文献

Chemical cross-linking of gelatin is achieved using a thermosensitive reactive copolymer based on N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM). The copolymer bears 5 mol % acrylic acid units which form amide bonds with the amino groups of gelatin in the presence of a water-soluble carbodiimide. The cross-linking reaction occurs only below the LCST congruent with 34 degrees C (lower critical solution temperature), i.e., when the copolymer is in the coil conformation. Above the LCST the copolymer adopts a globule conformation and its ability to react with gelatin is drastically reduced. By setting the temperature above or below the LCST it is possible to switch off or on the reactivity of the system and control the gelation process. The switch temperature can be set at the desired value by adjusting the composition of the thermosensitive copolymer.  相似文献

In this paper, we have investigated the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of N-isopropylacrylamide–acrylic acid (NIPAAm-AAc) copolymer as a function of chain-transfer agent/initiator mole ratio, acrylic acid content of copolymer, concentration, pH and ionic strength of aqueous copolymer solution. Aqueous solutions with the desired properties were prepared from previously purified polymers, synthesized at 65 °C by solution polymerization using ethanol. The effects of each parameter on the LCST were examined experimentally.In addition, an artificial neural network model that is able to predict the lower cretical solution temperature was develeped. The predictions from this model compare well against both training and test data sets with an average error less than 2.53%.Figure Cross plot of predicted and experimental LCST values for the testing data set.  相似文献

Anionic copolymer systems containing sulfated monomers have great potential for delivery of cationic therapeutics, but N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) copolymer nanoparticles have seen limited characterization to date with regard to physical properties relevant to loading and release of therapeutics. Characterization of polymeric nanoparticles incorporating AMPS showed an increased size and decreased thermodynamic swelling ratios of AMPS containing particles as compared to NIPAm nanoparticles lacking AMPS. Particles with increasing AMPS addition showed an increased propensity for uniformity, intraparticle colloidal stability, and drug loading capacity. Peptide encapsulated in particles was shielded from peptide degradation in serum. Particles were shown not impede blood coagulation or to cause hemolysis. This study has demonstrated that AMPS incorporation into traditional NIPAm nanoparticles presents a tunable parameter for changing particle LCST, size, swelling ratio, ζ potential, and cationic peptide loading potential. This one-pot synthesis results in a thermosensitive anionic nanoparticle system that is a potentially useful platform to deliver cationic cell penetrating peptides.  相似文献

Trypsin was immobilized on polymeric carriers with low critical solution temperature (LCST). Homopolymer of N,N-diethylacrylamide (DEAA), random copolymers of DEAA and acrylamide (AA), and block copolymers poly-DEAA-poly-AA were used as the carriers. It was shown that at a temperature above LCST all carriers have a conformation change and trypsin’s polymeric derivatives precipitate. The maximal activity after phase transition keeps trypsin, immobilized on poly-DEAA block in poly-DEAA-poly-AA block-copolymer.  相似文献

Anticoagulant activity of synthetic hirudin peptides   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Synthetic peptides based on the COOH-terminal 21 residues of hirudin were prepared in order to 1) evaluate the role of this segment in hirudin action toward thrombin, 2) define the shortest peptide derivative with anticoagulant activity, and 3) investigate the role of tyrosine sulfation in the peptides' inhibitory activities. A hirudin derivative of 20 amino acids, Hir45-64 (derived from residues 45-64 of the hirudin polypeptide), was found to effect a dose-dependent increase in the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of normal human plasma but to have no measurable inhibitory activity toward thrombin cleavage of a tripeptidyl p-nitroanilide substrate. Anticoagulant activity in hirudin derivatives was comparable in peptides of 20, 16, and 12 residues truncated from the NH2 terminus. Additional truncated peptides prepared by synthesis and carboxypeptidase treatment reveal that the minimal sequence of a hirudin peptide fragment with maximal anticoagulant activity is contained within the sequence: NH2-Asn-Gly-Asp-Phe-Glu-Glu-Ile-Pro-Glu-Glu-Tyr-Leu-COOH. The 12-residue derivative thus identified was reacted with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in the presence of sulfuric acid to yield a Tyr-sulfated peptide, S-Hir53-64. By comparison to unsulfated peptide, S-Hir53-64 was found to contain a specific inhibitory activity enhanced by one order of magnitude toward increase in APTT and to effect a dose-dependent increase in thrombin time of normal human plasma to yield a 4-fold increase in thrombin time with 2.5 micrograms/ml peptide using 0.8 units/ml alpha-thrombin. Comparison of S-Hir53-64 to hirudin in thrombin time and APTT assays reveals a 50-fold difference in molar specific activities toward inhibition of thrombin. Comparison of antithrombin activities of S-Hir53-64 using a variety of animal thrombins demonstrates greatest inhibitory activity toward murine, rat, and human enzymes and a 10-fold reduced activity toward bovine thrombin.  相似文献

The purpose of this study is to develop novel colon-specific drug delivery systems with pH-sensitive swelling and drug release properties. Methacrylic-type polymeric prodrugs with different content levels of 5-amino salicylic acid (5-ASA) were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of metacrylic acid (MAA), polyethylene glycol monomethacrylate (PEGMA), and a methacrylic derivative of 5-ASA (methacryloyloxyethyl 5-amino salicylate [MOES]). The copolymers were characterized, and the drug content of the copolymers was determined. The effect of copolymer composition on the swelling behavior and hydrolytic degradation was studied in simulated gastric fluid (SGF, pH 1.2) and simulated intestinal fluid (SIF, pH 7.2). The swelling and hydrolytic behavior of the copolymers was dependent on the content of MAA groups and caused a decrease in gel swelling in SGF or an increase in gel swelling in SIF. Drug release studies showed that increasing content of MAA in the copolymer enhances the hydrolysis in SIF but has no effect in SGF. The results suggest that hydrogen-bonded complexes are formed between MAA and PEG pendant groups and that these pH-sensitive systems could be useful for preparation of a controlled-release formulation of 5-ASA.  相似文献

DNA改组技术在水蛭素实验进化中的应用   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
蛋白质的改造是生物工程的重大研究课题.由于结构和功能预测的不精确性,而使按照三维结构信息进行定位诱变往往达不到预期的目的.近年来,另一条改造蛋白质的途径有较大的发展,即在实验室条件下模拟生物分子的自然进化,通过变异和靶功能的选择来获得改进性能的蛋白质[1],此过程称为生物分子实验定向进化.DNA改组(DNAshuffling)是一种改造基因和蛋白质的有效实验进化技术[2].它是在体外进行基因随机片段的重组,从而增加基因的多样性,促使有利变异与不利变异分离,通过选择使有利变异得到优化组合[3].DNA改组包含3个步骤:基因的随机片段化,自身引发PCR和重组合PCR.经过DNA改组的突变体库有可能选择到性能更优的突变体.为进行亲和淘选,需将突变体展示在噬菌体的表面[4].  相似文献

The effect of bovine thrombomodulin on the specificity of bovine thrombin   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
Bovine lung thrombomodulin is purified and used to investigate the basis of the change in substrate specificity of bovine thrombin when bound to thrombomodulin. Bovine thrombomodulin is a single polypeptide having an apparent molecular weight of 84,000 and associates with thrombin with high affinity and rapid equilibrium, to act as a potent cofactor for protein C activation and antagonist of reactions of thrombin with fibrinogen, heparin cofactor 2, and hirudin. Bovine thrombomodulin inhibits the clotting activity of thrombin with Kd less than 2.5 nM. Kinetic analysis of the effect of bovine thrombomodulin on fibrinopeptide A hydrolysis by thrombin indicates competitive inhibition with Kis = 0.5 nM. The active site of thrombin is little perturbed by thrombomodulin, as tosyl-Gly-Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide hydrolysis and inhibition by antithrombin III are unaffected. Insensitivity of the reaction with antithrombin III is likewise observed with thrombin bound to thrombomodulin on intact endothelium. Antithrombin III-heparin, human heparin cofactor 2, and hirudin inhibit thrombin-thrombomodulin more slowly than thrombin. These effects may arise from a decrease in Ki of the inhibitors for thrombin-thrombomodulin or from changes in the active site not detected by tosyl-Gly-Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide or antithrombin III. Bovine prothrombin fragment 2 inhibits thrombin clotting activity (Kd less than 7.5 microM) and acts as a competitive inhibitor of protein C activation (Kis = 2.1 microM). The data are consistent with a mechanism whereby thrombomodulin alters thrombin specificity by either binding to or allosterically altering a site on thrombin distinct from the catalytic center required for binding or steric accommodation of fibrinogen, prothrombin fragment 2, heparin cofactor 2, and hirudin.  相似文献

Block copolymers containing stimuli-responsive segments provide important new opportunities for controlling the activity and aggregation properties of protein-polymer conjugates. We have prepared a RAFT block copolymer of a biotin-terminated poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PAA). The number-average molecular weight (M(n)) of the (PNIPAAm)-b-(PAA) copolymer was determined to be 17.4 kDa (M(w)/M(n) = 1.09). The PNIPAAm block had an M(n) of 9.5 kDa and the poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) block had an M(n) of 7.9 kDa. We conjugated this block copolymer to streptavidin (SA) via the terminal biotin on the PNIPAAm block. We found that the usual aggregation and phase separation of PNIPAAm-SA conjugates that follow the thermally induced collapse and dehydration of PNIPAAm (the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNIPAAm is 32 degrees C in water) is prevented through the shielding action of the PAA block. In addition, we show that the cloud point and aggregation properties (as measured by loss in light transmission) of the [(PNIPAAm)-b-(PAA)]-SA conjugate also depended on pH. At pH 7.0 and at temperatures above the LCST, the block copolymer alone was found to form particles of ca. 60 nm in diameter, while the bioconjugate exhibited very little aggregation. At pH 5.5 and 20 degrees C, the copolymer alone was found to form large aggregates (ca. 218 nm), presumably driven by hydrogen bonding between the -COOH groups of PAA with other -COOH groups and also with the -CONH- groups of PNIPAAm. In comparison, the conjugate formed much smaller particles (ca. 27 nm) at these conditions. At pH 4.0, however, large particles were formed from the conjugate both above and below the LCST (ca. 700 and 540 nm, respectively). These results demonstrate that the aggregation properties of the block copolymer-SA conjugate are very different from those of the free block copolymer, and that the outer-oriented hydrophilic block of PAA shields the intermolecular aggregation of the block copolymer-SA bioconjugate at pH values where the -COOH groups of PAA are significantly ionized.  相似文献

Two chimeric proteins have been constructed. One consists of four parts: a portion of the low molecular mass single-chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (scu-PA-32K, residues 144-411), a 15-mer linker sequence, the C-terminal amino-acid sequence (residues 53-65) of hirudin (Hir), and an RGD sequence derived from the leech protein decorsin, i.e. scu-PA(32 k)-linker-Hir (residues 53-65)-RGD peptide. The other comprises two main segments: scu-PA(32 k) and hirudin into which RGDSP is inserted between its residues 33 and 34, i.e. hirudin (residues 1-33)-RGDSP-hirudin (residues 34-65)-scu-PA(32 k). These two chimeric genes were expressed in Escherichia coli, and the products were purified by Zn2+-chelating Sepharose 4B chromatography and benzamidine Sepharose 6B chromatography. Our results suggested that these two chimeric proteins not only had plasminogen-dependent fibrinolytic activity, but also possessed platelet aggregation inhibitory activity and antithrombin activity.  相似文献

Highly purified hirudin with a specific activity of 13,950 antithrombin units/mg was isolated from a commercial preparation by reversed-phase chromatography. The circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of hirudin was investigated and it was found that the spectrum cannot be accounted for solely in terms of the traditional three components of peptide backbone. It was also found that the CD spectrum of the thrombin-hirudin complex was not additive with respect to the individual spectra of thrombin and hirudin. This deviation from additivity was significant between 210 and 225 nm, indicating alterations in the secondary structures of the proteins during complex formation. When thrombin was titrated with hirudin, the spectral deviation from additivity was sigmoidal, suggesting the cooperative nature of the binding process. Gel filtration of the thrombin-hirudin mixture showed no molecular species greater than a 1:1 complex (Mr 45,500), but gel filtration of free hirudin showed a multimeric form (Mr 51,300) under the same experimental conditions. It is concluded that the cooperative nature of the binding process is due to the binding of thrombin molecules to the multimeric form of hirudin. This initial binding occurs with little or no change in the CD spectrum. In the second step, the multiple complex dissociates to form 1:1 complexes, resulting in larger conformational changes and a considerable increase in binding affinity.  相似文献
