Prenyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.1) has been purified to homogeneity from the supernatant fraction of yeast by ammonium sulfate fractionation, diethylaminoethyl-cellulose and hydroxylapatite chromatography, and column isoelectric focusing techniques. The active enzyme from isoelectric focusing columns emerged as a single symmetrical peak with specific activities 15- to 35-fold higher than previously reported preparations. The enzyme was found to be homogeneous by continuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 8.4 and discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 6.9 as well as sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide electrophoresis at pH 7.0. By means of gel chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein was shown to be a dimer with a molecular weight of 84,000 plus or minus 10%. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was determined to be 5.3. The enzyme synthesizes farnesyl and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphates from dimethylallyl, geranyl, and farnesyl pyrophosphates. Michaelis constants for the enzyme were 4, 8, and 14 mu M for isopentenyl, dimethylallyl, and geranyl pyrophosphates, respectively. 相似文献

Subunit structure and properties of the glycogen-bound phosphoprotein phosphatase from skeletal muscle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

A high molecular weight phosphoprotein phosphatase was purified approximately 11,000-fold from the glycogen-protein complex of rabbit skeletal muscle. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the preparation in the absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate showed a major protein band which contained the activity of the enzyme. Gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate also showed a major protein band migrating at 38,000 daltons. The sedimentation coefficient, Stokes radius, and frictional ratio of the enzyme were determined to be 4.4 S, 4.4 nm, and 1.53, respectively. Based on these values the molecular weight of the enzyme was calculated to be 83,000. The high molecular weight phosphatase was dissociated upon chromatography on a reactive red-120 agarose column. The sedimentation coefficient, Stokes radius, and frictional ratio of the dissociated enzyme (termed monomer) were determined to be 4.1 S, 2.4 nm, and 1.05, respectively. The molecular weight of the monomer enzyme was determined to be 38,000 by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Incubation of the high molecular weight phosphatase with a cleavable cross-linking reagent, 3,3'-dithiobis(sulfosuccinimidyl propionate), showed the formation of a cross-linked complex. The molecular weight of the cross-linked complex was determined to be 85,000 and a second dimension gel electrophoresis of the cleaved cross-linked complex showed that the latter contained only 38,000-dalton bands. Limited trypsinization of the enzyme released a approximately 4,000-dalton peptide from the monomers and dissociated the high molecular weight phosphatase into 34,000-dalton monomers. It is proposed that the catalytic activity of the native glycogen-bound phosphatase resides in a dimer of 38,000-dalton subunits. 相似文献

Sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) was purified from nasal salt glands of the duck (Anas platyrhynchos). Enzyme of specific activity 2,000 to 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour was routinely obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment of a microsomal fraction of gland homogenate in the presence of 3 mM ATP followed by pelleting of the enzyme through a sucrose density gradient. Purified NaK-ATPase was stable for over 3 months at -20 degree. By sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography purified NaK-ATPase was shown to contain two polypeptide chains of molecular weight 94,000 and 60,000, the smaller of which was a glycoprotein. Purified enzyme of activity 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour bound 3,600 pmol of ouabain/mg of enzyme protein. Reaction with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Mg2+ and Na+ gave 7,025 pmol of acyl phosphate/mg of enzyme protein. The turnover number calculated from phosphorylation data was 5,460 min-1. Amino acid analysis of the polypeptide components of duck salt gland enzyme after separation by gel filtration chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulfate demonstrated strong compositional homology with highly purified NaK-ATPase preparations from other organs and species. The NH2-terminal amino acid of the 94,000-dalton component was glycine and of the 60,000-dalton component, alanine. With a combination of manual sequencing and automated Edman degradation, the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the 94,00-dalton catalytic subunit was found to be Gly-Arg-Asn-Lys-Tyr-Glu-Thr-Thr-Ala-()-Ser-Glu. 相似文献

We have identified three phosphoprotein phosphatases in the cytosol of human cord blood erythrocytes by sequential anion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. The most abundant was E3 protein phosphatase. After rechromatography on a column of Ultrogel AcA-44 the enzyme had a molecular weight of 95,000 daltons. According to the data obtained by SDS/PAGE, the 95,000-dalton form was composed of non-identical subunits with a molecular mass of 23,000 and 16,000 daltons. Since ethanol decreased the molecular mass of the 95,000-dalton enzyme to 25,000 daltons, we suggest that the protein of 23,000-25,000 daltons represents the catalytic subunit. The decrease in the molecular weight is followed by a 2-fold increase in the Vmax value and by a change in kinetics: the negatively cooperative 95,000-dalton enzyme (h = 0.45) transforms into Michaelis-Menten kinetics (h = 1.0) in the 25,000-dalton form. Both molecular forms, 95,000 and 25,000 daltons, only dephosphorylated casein but not phosvitine and histones. Both forms were activated by CoCl2 and inhibited by organic, and most potently, by inorganic pyrophosphates to approximately the same degree. As opposed to the inorganic pyrophosphate, which affects the catalytic properties of the enzyme molecule, CoCl2 did not affect the catalytic properties of the enzymes, but it probably did affect the rate of 'E-S' complex formation. CoCl2 protected the 95,000-dalton enzyme from pyrophosphate inhibition. The data indicate that CoCl2 and pyrophosphate may take part in the regulation of the activity of both forms of E3 phosphatase. 相似文献

Soluble guanylate cyclase from rat lung exists as a heterodimer 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

The soluble form of guanylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.2) from rat lung has been purified to homogeneity by a one-step immunoaffinity chromatographic procedure. The purified soluble guanylate cyclase has specific activities of 432 and 49.1 nmol of cyclic GMP formed per min/mg protein with manganese and magnesium ions as a cofactor, respectively. This represents a purification of approximately 2,000-fold with a 50% recovery. The native enzyme has a molecular weight of 150,000 and a Stokes radius of 4.8 nm as determined on Spherogel TSK-G3000SW gel permeation chromatography. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis results in two protein-staining bands with molecular weights of 82,000 and 70,000. The purified soluble guanylate cyclase was also subjected to native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing electrophoresis, ion exchange chromatography, and GTP-agarose affinity chromatography. These additional purification procedures confirmed the presence of a single protein peak coincident with enzyme activity. The two subunits separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were shown to have different primary structures by immunoblotting with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies prepared against purified soluble guanylate cyclase and by peptide mapping with papain or Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease treatment. These data demonstrate that soluble guanylate cyclase purified from rat lung is a heterodimer composed of 82,000- and 70,000-dalton subunits with different primary structures. 相似文献

A rapid and efficient procedure has been developed to purify phosphofructokinase from the muscle of the parasitic roundworm, Ascaris suum. The procedure can be accomplished in 1 day with a 420-fold purification and a 60% yield. The enzyme was shown to be homogeneous by two-dimensional electrophoresis, Sepharose 6B column chromatography, and high performance liquid chromatography utilizing a size exclusion column. The subunit molecular weight of the enzyme was found to be 95,000 by electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. In solutions of low ionic strength, the native enzyme aggregated to species of higher molecular weight than did the rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase. In the presence of 0.2 M (NH4)2SO4, the minimum native molecular weight was determined to be 398,000 by high performance liquid chromatography and Sepharose 6B column chromatography. Therefore, the enzyme appears to be a tetramer with identical or near-identical subunits. The apparent isoelectric point of the enzyme was shown to be 7.3 to 7.4 by both column and gel isoelectric focusing. Amino acid analysis revealed a lower number of the aromatic residues Phe, Tyr, and Trp than in the rabbit muscle enzyme and this is in agreement with the lower extinction coefficient of E1%280 nm = 6.5. Analysis of the purified enzyme revealed 7.4 +/- 0.6 mol of phosphate/mol of enzyme. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a mitochondrial isozyme of C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
C1-Tetrahydrofolate synthase is a trifunctional polypeptide found in eukaryotic organisms that catalyzes 10-formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase (EC 6.3.4.3), 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase (EC 3.5.4.9), and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.5) activities. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase is encoded by the ADE3 locus, yet ade3 mutants have low but detectable levels of these enzyme activities. Synthetase, cyclohydrolase, and dehydrogenase activities in an ade3 deletion strain co-purify 4,000-fold to yield a single protein species as seen on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The native molecular weight of the isozyme (Mr = 200,000 by gel exclusion chromatography) and the size of its subunits (Mr = 100,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) are similar to those of C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase. Cell fractionation experiments show that the isozyme, but not C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase, is localized in the mitochondria. Genetic studies indicate that the isozyme is encoded in the nuclear genome. Peptide mapping experiments show that C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase and the isozyme are not structurally identical. However, immunotitration experiments and amino acid sequence analysis suggest that C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase and the isozyme are structurally related. We propose to call the isozyme "mitochondrial C1-tetrahydrofolate synthase." 相似文献

Phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase by the catalytic subunit of adenosine 3': 5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase. 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Turkey gizzard smooth muscle light chain kinase was purified by affinity chromatography on calcium dependent regulator weight of 125,000 +/- 5,000 in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When myosin light chain kinase is incubated with the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, 1 mol of phosphate is incorporated per mol of myosin kinase. Brief tryptic digestion of the 32P-labeled myosin kinase liberates a single radioactive peptide with a molecular weight of approximately 22,000. Phosphorylation of myosin kinase results in a 2-fold decrease in the rate at which the enzyme phosphorylates the 20,000-dalton light chain of smooth muscle myosin. These results suggest that cyclic AMP has a direct effect on actin-myosin interaction in smooth muscle. 相似文献

The enzyme rhodanese (EC 2.8.1.1) appears as a single polypeptide chain protein on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of this species is approx. 33 000. This contrasts with previous reports that rhodanese behaves on gel filtration chromatography as a rapidly equilibrating monomer-dimer system composed of identical subunits with a molecular weight of 18 500. We have investigated this apparent discrepancy by isolating the enzyme by the two different preparative procedures used in the above investigations. The two crystalline samples were subjected to gel filtration chromatography under a wide variety of conditions and to sodium dodecyl sulfate disc gel electrophoresis. The two preparations yielded rhodanese which behaved identically and no evidence for the monomeric species was obtained under any experimental condition tested. Thin-layer gel chromatography of clarified liver homogenates gave no evidence of rhodanese species other than that present in the purified samples. The variation in molecular weights observed in gel filtration chromatography may be a reflection of the conformational mobility of the enzyme leading to solvent-dependent changes in Stokes radius. If rhodanese is dimeric, special interactions must stabilize it under the conditions tested here. 相似文献

Glycerol:oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) 2-oxidoreductase (EC 1.1.1.6), an inducible enzyme for anaerobic glycerol catabolism in Klebsiella aerogenes, was purified and found to have a molecular weight of 79,000 by gel electrophoresis. The protein seemed to be enzymatically active either as a dimer of a 40,000-dalton peptide at pH 8.6 or as a tetramer of 160,000 molecular weight at pH 7.0. The enzyme activity was present at high levels in cells growing anaerobically on glycerol, but disappeared with a half-life of about 45 min if molecular oxygen was introduced to the culture. In contrast, no such phenomenon occurred with dihydroxyacetone kinase activity, the second enzyme in the pathway. Immunochemical analysis showed that the inactivation of the oxidoreductase did not involve degradation of the protein. Furthermore, subunits of the active and inactive forms of the enzyme were indistinguishable in size on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and had similar isoelectric points (pH 4.7). Inactivation did, however, alter the gel filtration properties of the enzyme protein and, more importantly, reduced its affinity for the dye Cibacron F3GA and the coenzyme NAD+. 相似文献

Detergent (Lubrol WX)-solubilized sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+ + K+)-ATPase) of electrophorus electric organ contains two major constituent polypeptides with molecular weights of 96,000 and 58,000 which can be readily demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These two polypeptides can be clearly separated and can be obtained in milligram quantities by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. The separated polypeptides, after removal of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and Lubrol-solubilized (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity to some degree. Moreover, the degree of inhibition is directly proportional to the increasing amounts of antisera. The inhibition is maximal 4 weeks after the first injection. Immunodiffusion in 1% agar gel indicated that only Lubrol-solubilized enzyme antiserum, but not 58,000-dalton or 96,00-dalton polypeptide antiserum, gives one major precipitin band. However, specific complex formation between each polypeptide antiserum and Lubrol-solubilized enzyme occurs. This was demonstrated indirectly. After incubating Lubrol-solubilized enzyme with increasing amounts of polypeptide antisera at 37 degrees for 15 min, they were placed in the side wells of an immunodiffusion plate with antiserum against Lubrol-solubilized enzyme in the central well. The intensity of the precipitin band decreased with increasing amounts of polypeptide antisera. Thus, the results indicate that both 96,000-dalton and 58,000-dalton polypeptides are integral subunits of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. 相似文献

Thiamine-binding protein was isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by successive procedures of cold osmotic shock treatment, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and ultrafiltration. The purified thiamine-binding protein was an electrophoretically homogeneous molecule which appeared to be a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 140 000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. No thiamine-binding protein was observed by disc gel electrophoresis in the shock fluid released from yeast cells grown in the presence of 1 muM thiamine, indicating that the formation of this protein is regulated by exogenous thiamine as previously suggested. 相似文献

UDPgalactose:Ceramide Galactosyltransferase of Rat Brain: A New Method of Purification and Production of Specific Antibodies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A new method for purification of UDPgalactose:ceramide galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.45) is described. The principal steps involved solvent extraction at -70 degrees C, Triton X-100 extraction, and DEAE-Sephadex and Blue Sepharose chromatography. The active configuration of the enzyme was stabilized by phospholipids and a rapid loss of enzymatic activity was observed after removal of these lipids. The inactive enzyme could be fully reactivated in the presence of brain phospholipids dispersed in a Triton X-100-containing buffer. The purified enzyme preparation showed two major components by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate with apparent molecular weights of 50-70,000. The 53,000-dalton protein was isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and used to produce antibodies against UDPgalactose:ceramide galactosyltransferase. 相似文献

The membrane-bound N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase from porcine submaxillary glands which provides A blood group specificity to mucin has been purified 38,000-fold by affinity chromatography on UDP-hesanolamine-agarose in aqueous Triton X-100. Design of a suitable purification procedure was developed by assessing the strength of interaction between enzyme and affinity adsorbent using batch desorption. The pure transferase has an apparent molecular weight of 100,000 as judged by zonal centrifugation and by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of a reducing agent. The reduced and carboxymethylated protein has an apparent molecular weight of 46,000 and 57,000 as judged by sedimentation equilibrium and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively, suggesting that the native enzyme contains two subunits. It is a glycoprotein with a specific activity of 30 micronmol/min/mg of enzyme, which is 55,000 times that reported for the same enzyme isolated from human serum. 相似文献

In human placenta 85% of total hexokinase activity (EC 2.7.1.1) was found in a soluble form. Of this, 70% is hexokinase type I while the remaining 30% is hexokinase type II. All the bound hexokinase is type I. Soluble hexokinase I was purified 11,000-fold by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, and dye-ligand chromatography. The specific activity was 190 units/mg protein with a 75% yield. The enzyme shows only one band in nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis that stains for protein and enzymatic activity; however, two components (with Mr 112,000 and 103,000) were constantly seen in sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. Many attempts were made to separate these two proteins under native conditions; however, only one peak of activity was obtained when the enzyme was submitted to gel filtration (Mr 118,000), preparative isoelectric focusing (pI 5.9), anion-exchange chromatography, hydroxylapatite chromatography, and affinity chromatography on immobilized dyes and immobilized glucosamine. The high and low molecular weight hexokinases show the same isoelectric point under denaturing conditions as determined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Each hexokinase subtype was obtained by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis followed by electroelution. Monospecific antibodies raised in rabbits against electroeluted high and low molecular weight hexokinases were not able to recognize the native enzymes but each of them detected both hexokinases on immunoblots. Amino acid compositions and peptide mapping by limited proteolysis of the high and low molecular weight hexokinases were also performed and suggested a strong homology between these two subtypes of human hexokinase I. 相似文献

In Euglena gracilis the terminal four enzyme activities of the tryptophan biosynthetic pathway were found to be associated with a protein with an estimated molecular weight of 325,000 +/- 20,000. The protein was purified approximately 2,000-fold with relatively proportional recoveries of all four enzyme activities. The purified material was homogeneous by the criteria of analytical disc gel electrophoresis and gel isoelectric focusing. Disc gel electrophoresis after denaturation with sodium dodecyl sulfate gave a single protein band with a molecular weight of 155,000 +/- 5,000. Disc gel electrophoresis in 8 M urea also gave rise to a single protein band. We interpret these results as evidence for a single species of subunit. The pathway in Euglena is the only one known to the present in which the terminal enzyme, tryptophan synthase, is not a separate molecular species. 相似文献

An epimerase-reductase in L-fucose synthesis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The first committed enzyme in GDP-L-fucose formation from GDP-D-mannose is GDP-D-mannose 4,6-dehydratase, which forms GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose. The uncertain enzymatic steps beyond this point were examined in this study. Assays were developed for the epimerase and reductase activities which the putative pathway would predict. A protein was isolated exhibiting homogeneity by several criteria. This single protein, which forms GDP-L-fucose from GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose and NADH, appears to possess both epimerase and reductase capabilities and may be termed GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose-3,5-epimerase-4-reductase. Analysis on a molecular sieve column using fast protein liquid chromatography established a molecular weight of 63,100 for the native enzyme, whereas sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis established a subunit molecular weight of 31,500. 相似文献

Pullulanase (pullulan 6-glucanohydrolase EC 3.2.1.41) was purified about 290-fold from the culture fluid of Bacillus No. 202-1 by DEAE-cellulose adsorption, acetone fractionation, (NH4) 2SO4 precipitation and DEAE--cellulose column chromatography followed by Sephadex G-200 molecular sieve chromatography. The enzyme gave a single band of protein by disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight was estimated as 92 000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. The isolectric point was lower than pH 2.5. The optimum pH for enzyme action was about 8.5-9.0. The action of the enzyme on amylopectin and glycogen resulted in increase in the iodine coloration of 85% and 70%, respectively. The enzyme completely hydrolyzed 1,6-alpha-glucosidic linkages in amylopectin, glycogen and pullulan. 相似文献

Characterization of the somatogenic receptor in rat liver. Hydrodynamic properties and affinity cross-linking 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Rat liver somatogenic receptors have been characterized by gel permeation chromatography, sucrose density gradients in H2O and D2O, and affinity cross-linking using 125I-bovine growth hormone (bGH) as a specific somatogenic receptor ligand. Cross-linking of 125I-bovine growth hormone to a Triton X-100-treated low density fraction isolated from livers of late pregnant rats followed by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions showed three major binders with Mr 95,000, 86,000, and 43,000 and a minor binder of Mr 55,000, after correction for bound ligand assuming a 1:1 binding ratio of ligand-receptor. The Mr 86,000, 55,000, and 43,000 species were recovered in the detergent-soluble supernatant after high-speed centrifugation, whereas the Mr 95,000 species remained Triton X-100 insoluble. Detergent-soluble 125I-bGH-receptor complexes were further analyzed by sedimentation into sucrose density gradients. The sedimentation coefficient was S20,w = 5.2 S and the partial specific volume v = 0.72 ml/g. Gel permeation chromatography on a Sepharose S-400 column indicated a Stokes radius of 61 A for the 125I-bGH-receptor-Triton X-100 complex. Based on these figures, the molecular weight of the complex was calculated as 131,100. The molecular weight of the ligand-free receptor-Triton X-100 complex was calculated as Mr 109,100. Affinity cross-linking and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the 61 A peak from Sephacryl S-400 chromatography (cf. above) showed two binding entities, one major and one minor with Mr values 86,000 and 43,000, respectively, in the absence of reductant. When electrophoresis was run in the presence of reductant the Mr 43,000 species was the major binding entity. Furthermore, two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis (first dimension, nonreducing and second dimension, reducing) showed that a disulfide-linked binder at Mr 43,000 is contained within the Mr 86,000 species. As with pregnant rats, female and male rats both showed 125I-bovine growth hormone binders of Mr 95,000, 84,000, 55,000, 43,000, and additionally an Mr 35,000 binder. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of peptidylarginine deiminase from rabbit skeletal muscle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The preceding paper described the identification and some properties of peptidylarginine deiminase, which catalyzes the deimination of arginyl residues in protein, from rabbit skeletal muscle, kidney, brain, and lung. In the present work we purified peptidylarginine deiminase from rabbit skeletal muscle with a 16% yield by 7 steps. The purification involved ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, gel filtration on Bio-Gel A-0.5 m, and affinity chromatography on soybean trypsin inhibitor-Sepharose 4B and aminohexyl-Sepharose 4B. The purified enzyme was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with and without sodium dodecyl sulfate. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 83,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 130,000-140,000 by gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. The isoelectric point was 5.3 and the amino acid composition was also determined. The enzyme preferably catalyzed the formation of citrulline derivatives from arginine derivatives in which both the amino and carboxyl groups were substituted and showed the highest activity towards Bz-L-Arg-O-Et among the arginine derivatives tested. The Km value for Bz-L-Arg-O-Et was found to be 0.50 X 10(-3) M. The enzyme also showed marked activities towards native protein substrates, such as protamine sulfate, soybean trypsin inhibitor, histone and bovine serum albumin. 相似文献
