1. An anionic and a cationic chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1) were isolated from the pancreas glands of the moose (Alces alces) and elk (Cervus elaphus). The A and B chymotrypsins from each species were purified to homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, affinity chromatography on 4-phenylbutylamine-Sepharose and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE- and CM-cellulose. 2. The molecular weight and pH optimum of each chymotrypsin were similar to those of the corresponding ox A and B chymotrypsins. 3. The substrate specificities of the chymotrypsins were investigated by digestion of glucagon and the oxidized B chain of insulin. The primary specificity of each chymotrypsin for aromatic amino acid residues was further established by determining the Km and kcat for the hydrolysis of a number of synthetic amino acid ester substrates. 4. The amino acid composition and total number of residues of moose and elk chymotrypsin A were similar to those of ox chymotrypsin A. An even greater similarity was observed among the B chymotrypsins of the three species. 5. The A chymotrypsins of moose and elk were fragmented to their constituent 'A', 'B' and 'C' polypeptide chains by succinylation (3-carboxypropionylation), reduction and alkylation of the native enzymes. In each case, the two major chains ('B' and 'C') were separated and isolated. By comparison of the amino acid compositions of moose, elk and oxy 'B' and 'C' chains, a greater difference was observed among the three A chymotrypsins than was suggested by the amino acid compositions of the native enzymes alone. 6. Peptides were isolated from the disulphide bridge and active-site regions of the A and B chymotrypsins of moose and elk by diagonal peptide-'mapping' techniques. From the amino acid compositions of the isolated peptides (assuming maximum homology) and from a comparison of diagonal peptide 'maps', there was established a high degree of primary-structure identity among the mooae, elk and ox chymotrypsins. Tentative sequences were deduced for the peptides isolated by diagonal peptide 'mapping'. 7. Details of the isolation procedures of the moose and elk chymotrypsins A and B and the amino acid analyses of some peptides obtained by diagonal peptide 'mapping' have been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50064 (27 pages) at the British Library Lending Division, Boston Spa, Wetherby, W.

Amino acid sequence of the phosphopyridoxyl peptide from P-protein of the chicken liver glycine cleavage system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-containing peptide which contained 54 amino acid residues was isolated from chicken liver P-protein of the glycine cleavage system following reduction with NaB3H4, carboxymethylation, and proteolysis with lysylendopeptidase. Two peptides which comprise the two halves of the phosphopyridoxyl peptide were isolated from apo-P-protein. Sequence analysis of these three peptides provided the primary structure of the phosphopyridoxyl peptide and revealed that the cofactor is linked to Lys-35. The pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-binding site has the His-Lys(PLP)-X structure characteristic of known pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent amino acid decarboxylases, tryptophan synthase, and serine hydroxymethyltransferase. 相似文献

Purothionin isolated from commercial wheat flour contained several components and two of them (A-I and A-II) were isolated in pure form by CM-52 column chromatography. Each component contained 45 amino acid residues with a 4 disulfide bonds. Purothionin A-II was digested with trypsin and thermolysin to isolate cystine peptides. These were separated and purified by chromatography on an SP-Sephadex column, and paper electrophoresis and chromatography. A peptide containing a -Cys-Cys- sequence was hydrolyzed with 10 N sulfuric acid. Amino acid compositions and partial sequence studies of the cystine peptides and their performic acid-oxidized peptides revealed the positions of all 4 disulfide bonds in purothionin A-II. They were formed between residues 3 and 39, 4 and 31, 12 and 29, and 16 and 25. The results of a partial study of purothionin A-I are also presented. 相似文献

N-terminal peptides of bovine ribonuclease (RNase) of 20, 13 and 7 amino acid residues were isolated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Antibodies were raised in mice against these peptides coupled to bovine serum albumin (BSA). It was shown that antibodies against the peptides reacted with the intact protein and that the immune response decreased with decreasing size of peptide. In order to obtain a satisfactory reaction with the intact protein, the peptide immunogen should be longer than 7 amino acids. 相似文献

5-Enolpyruvyl shikimate 3-phosphate synthase catalyzes the reversible condensation of phosphoenolpyruvate and shikimate 3-phosphate to yield 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate 3-phosphate and inorganic phosphate. The enzyme is a target for the nonselective herbicide glyphosate (N-phosphonomethylglycine). In order to determine the role of lysine residues in the mechanism of action of this enzyme as well as in its inhibition by glyphosate, chemical modification studies with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate were undertaken. Incubation of the enzyme with the reagent in the absence of light resulted in a time-dependent loss of enzyme activity. The inactivation followed pseudo first-order and saturation kinetics with Kinact of 45 microM and a maximum rate constant of 1.1 min-1. The inactivation rate increased with increase in pH, with a titratable pK of 7.6. Activity of the inactive enzyme was restored by addition of amino thiol compounds. Reaction of enzyme with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate was prevented in the presence of substrates or substrate plus glyphosate, an inhibitor of the enzyme. Upon 90% inactivation, approximately 1 mol of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate was incorporated per mol of enzyme. The azomethine linkage between pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and the enzyme was reduced by NaB3H4. Tryptic digestion followed by reverse phase chromatographic separation resulted in the isolation of a peptide which contained the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate moiety as well as 3H label. By amino acid sequencing of this peptide, the modified residue was identified as Lys-22. The amino acid sequence around Lys-22 is conserved in bacterial, fungal, as well as plant enzymes suggesting that this region may constitute a part of the enzyme's active site. 相似文献

Evaluation of the interaction of peptides with Cu(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) by high-performance immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
High-performance immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography was utilized to evaluate the adsorption properties of 67 synthetic, biologically active, peptides ranging in size from 5 to 42 residues. The metal ions, Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II), were immobilized by iminodiacetic acid (IDA) coupled to TSK gel 5PW (10 microns). Two types of gradient elution (imidazole and pH) were used to evaluate peptide retention by the metal ions. A decreasing pH gradient and an increasing imidazole gradient eluted the peptides in similar order. IDA-Cu(II) and IDA-Zn(II) showed very similar selectivities for the peptides analyzed; however, IDA-Zn(II) displayed a weaker affinity for the peptides. IDA-Ni(II) showed a slightly different pattern of selectivity. Peptide adsorption effects contributed by the metal-free gel matrix were found to be relatively minor. The concentration and type of salt included in the mobile phase could affect the relative affinities of the peptides for the immobilized metal ions. Retention coefficients were assigned to individual amino acid residues by multiple linear regression analysis. Histidine showed the largest positive correlation with retention, followed by aromatic amino acid residues. Modified N-terminal residues resulted in negative contributions to retention. Analyses of peptide amino acid composition alone allowed prediction of peptide retention behavior on immobilized metal ion affinity columns. 相似文献

Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (in a lesser degree, pyridoxal) interacts with both non-protonated and protonated exposed epsilon-amino groups of lysine residues and with alpha-amino groups in human serum albumin and pancreatic ribonuclease A. The reaction of Schiff base formation proceeds within a wide pH range--from 3.0 to 12.0. At a great pyridoxal-5-phosphate excess in ribonuclease A in neutral or slightly acidic aqueous media all the ten epsilon-amino groups of lysine residues and the alpha-amino groups of Lys-1 become modified. The formation of aldimine bonds of pyridoxal-5-phosphate with protonated amino groups in acidic media is determined by ionization of its phenol hydroxyl and phosphate residues. Acetaldehyde, propionic aldehyde and pyridine aldehyde interact only with non-protonated amino groups of the proteins. The equilibrium constants of pyridoxal-5-phosphate and other aldehydes binding to proteins and amino acids were determined. The rate constants of Schiff base formation for pyridoxal-5-phosphates with some amino acids and primary sites of proteins for direct and reverse reactions were calculated. 相似文献

Sequence of a tryptic peptide from the NADPH binding site of the enoyl reductase domain of fatty acid synthase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fatty acid synthase from the uropygial gland of goose was inhibited by treatment with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate by selectively modifying a lysine residue at the NADPH binding site of the enoyl reductase domain (A. J. Poulose and P. E. Kolattukudy (1980) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 201, 313-321). Distribution of radioactivity in tryptic peptides generated from the synthase treated with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate/NaB3H4 in the presence and absence of 2'-monophosphoadenosine-5'-diphosphoribose, which protects the enzyme from inactivation by pyridoxal phosphate, showed that modification of one specific peptide was prevented by the protector. This peptide was purified by a combination of Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, anion-exchange chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography. The primary structure of this peptide is Val-Phe-Thr-Thr-Val-Gly-Ser-Ala-Glu-Lys(Pxy)-Arg. 相似文献

In vitro poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of seminal ribonuclease 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The site of in vitro ADP-ribosylation of seminal ribonuclease was determined. Seminal enzyme was found to be a good receptor of [14C]ADP-ribose residues under the reaction conditions used. The recovery of [14C]ADP-ribosylated RNase was about 65% after purification. After tryptic digestion of modified enzyme, a fraction containing [14C]ADP-ribosylated peptides was separated from the others by ion-exchange chromatography on M82 resin. Radioactive peptides were then purified by affinity chromatography on anti-poly(ADP-ribose)IgG-Sepharose. High performance liquid chromatography of a mixture obtained after pronase digestion of purified ADP-ribosylated peptides revealed only one radioactive peptide whose amino acid composition corresponded to a peptide that has equimolar quantities of aspartic acid, serine, and glycine. Carboxypeptidase Y digestion of this peptide showed that its amino acid sequence was Asp-Ser-Gly. Only position 14-16 of seminal RNase corresponded to this sequence. The chemical stability of the ADP-ribose/enzyme linkage indicated that aspartic acid 14 is the modification site in seminal RNase. 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose-binding Cytisus scoparius seed lectin II (CSII) was determined using a protein sequencer. After digestion of CSII with endoproteinase Lys-C or Asp-N, the resulting peptides were purified by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and then subjected to sequence analysis. Comparison of the complete amino acid sequence of CSII with the sequences of other leguminous seed lectins revealed regions of extensive homology. The amino acid residues of concanavalin A (Con A) involved in the metal binding site are highly conserved among those of CSII. A carbohydrate-binding peptide of CSII was obtained from the endoproteinase Asp-N digest of CSII by affinity chromatography on a column of GalNAc-Gel. This peptide was retained on the GalNAc-Gel column and was presumed to have affinity for the column. The amino acid sequence of the retarded peptide was determined using a protein sequencer. The retarded peptide was found to correspond to the putative metal-binding region of Con A. These results strongly suggest that this peptide represents the carbohydrate-binding and metal ion-binding sites of CSII. 相似文献

Pancreatic RNAase (ribonuclease) from the pike whale (lesser rorqual, Balaenoptera acutorostrata) was isolated by affinity chromatography. The protein was digested with different proteolytic enzymes. Peptides were isolated by gel filtration, preparative high-voltage paper electrophoresis and paper chromatography. The amino acid sequence of peptides was determined by the dansyl-Edman method. Although we do not have an amino acid composition for the whole protein, all peptide bonds were overlapped by one or more peptides. Residues 85-96 are bridged by a peptide of unstaisfactory composition and the sequence here depends, at least in part, on homology for its confirmation. Another region in which a similar situation obtains is residues 39-40. This pancreatic RNAase differs at 24-33% of the positions from all other mammalian pancreatic RNAases sequenced to date, except for pig RNAase, from which it differs by 19%. This indicates that whale RNAase has evolved independently during the larger part of the evolution of the mammals. Lesser-rorqual pancreatic RNAase is partially glycosidated (30%) at asparagine-76 in an Asn-Ser-Thr sequence (residues 76-78). Pig RNAase also has carbohydrate attached to asparagine-76 and is identical with lesser-rorqual RNAase in residues 76-98. Detailed evidence for the sequence has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50066 (11 pages) at the British Library Lending Division, Boston Spa, Wetherby, W.

We have previously demonstrated that a monoclonal antibody (5F7) directed against the heavy chain region of factor XI inhibits the binding of factor XI to high molecular weight kininogen (high Mr kininogen) and the surface-mediated proteolytic activation of factor XI by factor XIIa in the presence of high Mr kininogen. In order to identify the structural domain of factor XI that binds high Mr kininogen, CNBr-digested factor XI was passed over a 5F7 antibody affinity column. One of two CNBr peptides that bound to this 5F7 affinity column inhibited binding of 125I-factor XI to high Mr kininogen, as did intact factor XI. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate of an inhibitory peptide purified by high performance liquid chromatography revealed an Mr of 10,000-15,000. Gas-phase sequencing of this peptide revealed the following amino-terminal sequence: X-X-Val-Thr-Gln-Leu-Leu-Lys-Asp-Thr. These data together with the amino acid composition of the isolated peptide indicate that both the epitope recognized by antibody 5F7 and at least a portion of the high Mr kininogen binding site are contained within the amino-terminal portion of factor XI comprising residues Glu-1 through Met-102. Further cleavage of this peptide with o-iodosobenzoic acid at a tryptophanyl peptide bond revealed that an Mr 5,000 peptide (with the amino-terminal sequence Trp-Phe-Thr-Cys-Val-Leu) bound to a high Mr kininogen affinity column and inhibited binding of 125I-factor XI to high Mr kininogen. Finally, a synthetic peptide comprising residues Phe-56 through Ser-86 inhibited 125I-factor XI binding to high Mr kininogen. These experiments strongly suggest that the high Mr kininogen binding site is contained within the domain in the heavy chain region of factor XI comprising residues Phe-56 through Ser-86. 相似文献

Various naturally occurring peptides containing l-arginine at the carboxyl termini were tightly adsorbed at pH 5 on anhydrotrypsin, a chemical derivative of bovine trypsin, immobilized on Sepharose, and desorbed by washing with 5 mm HCl. The largest of the peptides examined was Fragment 2 (“histidine-rich peptide”) with 41 amino acid residues, which had been released from bovine high-molecular-weight kininogen by plasma kallikrein. When only the carboxyl-terminal arginine was removed by carboxypeptidase B, the peptides lost their specific affinity toward the immobilized anhydrotrypsin. The peptide fragments in the tryptic digests of reduced and S-carboxymethylated erabutoxin a were also fractionated effectively by chromatography on this affinity adsorbent. The fragments containing l-lysine at the carboxyl termini showed weaker affinity for the adsorbent than those containing l-arginine at the termini. 相似文献

Purification of synthetic peptides. Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
G Lindeberg H Bennich A Engstr?m 《International journal of peptide and protein research》1991,38(3):253-259
Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) is a useful method for purification of synthetic peptides with an N-terminal metal-binding amino acid such as His, Trp, or Cys, especially when such residues are not present in other parts of the molecule. In solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), capping with acetic anhydride will, in principle, produce truncated peptides as the only side-products due to incomplete couplings. Consequently, only the desired product will carry the affinity label. Most of the impurities, therefore, can be removed by a single passage through an IMAC column. Some representative examples are presented, where fairly large peptides (30-40 amino acid residues) were efficiently purified by this approach. 相似文献

1. A chymotryptic digest of the protein fraction U.S.3. from oxidized wool was separated into 51 peptide fractions by chromatography on a column of cation-exchange resin. 2. The less acidic fractions were separated into their component peptides by a combination of cation-exchange-resin chromatography, paper chromatography and paper electrophoresis. 3. The amino acid sequences of 34 of these peptides were elucidated, and those of 14 others partially determined. 4. Overlaps between the tryptic and chymotryptic peptides from fraction U.S.3 have enabled ten extended amino acid sequences to be deduced, the longest containing 20 amino acid residues. 5. The relevance of the results to the structures of the helical and non-helical regions of wool is discussed. 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of the kappa-chain of the mouse myeloma protein MOPC 21 was established. The protein was reduced and alkylated with iodo[2-(14)C]acetic acid, and 21 tryptic peptides were isolated, mainly by paper electrophoresis and paper chromatography. Three large tryptic peptides (of 35, 36 and 42 residues), which were difficult to isolate in this manner, were obtained pure and in excellent yields by a combination of Sephadex G-50 gel filtration in 1% (w/v) NH(4)HCO(3) and chromatography on a DEAE-cellulose column in ammonium acetate buffer, pH8.1. Peptides overlapping the tryptic peptides were isolated from a chymotryptic digest. The chain is 214 residues long. Microheterogeneity of two peptides was observed and is believed to be due to deamidation. It was not excluded that such deamidation could occur in serum from which the protein was isolated. The sequence is compared with the sequences of two other mouse kappa-chains, and with the human kappa-chain basic sequences. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a novel antimicrobial peptide from Brevibacillus laterosporus strain A60 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A novel antimicrobial peptide, with molecular mass of 1602.0469Da, produced by Brevibacillus laterosporus strain A60 was isolated and purified from the soil of mango plants. The purification procedure consisted of ammonium sulfate precipitation, cation exchange chromatography on an HiTrap SP HP column, thin layer chromatography and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) on C18 reversed-phase column. After the four isolation procedures, one peptide with antimicrobial activity was obtained and named BL-A60. The determination of the complete amino acid sequences of this peptide showed that it contains eleven amino acid residues, L-Y-K-L-V-K-V-V-L-N-M, and a choline connected to the N-terminal and a tenuazonic acid modified of the C-terminal. This peptide shows relatively low identification to other antimicrobial peptides from bacteria. Purified BL-A60 showed high pH and thermal stability and a strong inhibition of different stages of the life cycle of Phytophthora capsici, including mycelial growth, sporangia formation and cystospore germination, with EC(50) values of 7.89, 0.60 and 21.96 μg ml(-1), respectively. 相似文献

1. Amino acid-sequence studies were done on a peptide of mol.wt. approx. 12500 that was isolated from the highly helical fragments obtained by partial chymotryptic digestion of the low-sulphur proteins (S-carboxymethylkerateine-A) from wool. 2. The peptides obtained by tryptic and chymotryptic digestion of this large peptide were separated by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose at pH8.5 with an (NH4)(2)CO(3) concentration gradient and, where necessary, purified further by paper electrophoresis. 3. Determination of the sequences of many of these peptides showed that a high proportion of the cationic residues occurs in pairs. 4. Although two of the four S-carboxymethylcysteine residues are located in what appears to be a non-helical region near the N-terminus the other two S-carboxymethylcysteine residues occur in or near sequences suggesting a helical conformation. 5. Some peptides were obtained, in low yields, that appeared to be homologues of more major ones. These suggest either homologies in the helical portions of the low-sulphur proteins or the presence of closely related amino acid sequences in helical regions of completely different origins. 6. A partial sequence of the complete peptide is proposed. 相似文献

Antisense peptide recognition of sense peptides: sequence simplification and evaluation of forces underlying the interaction 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Structural principles were studied which underlie the recognition of sense peptides (sense DNA encoded) by synthetic peptides encoded in the corresponding antisense strand of DNA. The direct-readout antisense peptides corresponding to ribonuclease S-peptide bind to an affinity matrix containing immobilized S-peptide with significant selectivity and with dissociation constants in the range of 10(-6) M as judged by analytical affinity chromatography. Synthetic, sequence-modified forms of antisense peptides also exhibit substantial binding affinity, including a "scrambled" peptide in which the order of residue positions is changed while the overall residue composition is retained. The antisense mutants, as the original antisense peptides, bind at saturation with greater than 1:1 stoichiometry to immobilized S-peptide. The data suggest significant sequence degeneracy in the interaction of antisense with sense peptide. In contrast, selectivity was confirmed by the inability of several control peptides to bind to immobilized S-peptide. The idea was tested that the hydropathic pattern of the amino acid sequence serves to induce antisense peptide recognition. A hydropathically sequence-simplified mutant of antisense peptide was made in which all strongly hydrophilic (charged) residues were replaced by Lys, all strongly hydrophobic residues by Leu, and all weakly hydrophilic and hydrophobic residues by Ala, except Gly which was unchanged. This "KLAG" mutant also binds to immobilized S-peptide, with an affinity only an order of magnitude less than that with the original antisense peptide and with multiple stoichiometry. Mutants of the KLAG model, in which the hydropathic pattern was changed substantially, exhibited a lower binding affinity for S-peptide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
