The combination of an agarose gel (Bio-Gel A) and a dioxane–water (1:1) solvent system allowed the fractionation, on a preparative scale, of a very polydisperse, non-derivatized lignin preparation (enzymatically liberated lignin prepared from sweetgum sapwood with Lenzites trabea). Three fractions differing markedly in molecular weight were obtained. A gel of crosslinked alkylated dextran (Sephadex LH-20) with the same solvent system allowed division of the lowest molecular weight fraction into two fractions. These materials were characterized by measurements of intrinsic viscosity and number-average molecular weights in dimethylformamide and dioxane–water. It was established that the two highest molecular weight fractions were associated in an average trimeric form in dioxane-water (1:1) as compared to the form (considered to be molecular) that occurred in dimethylformamide. Molecular size distributions and eluant volumes of the fractions were determined with a Sephadex G-100–formamide system, the latter being one of the most powerful nonaqueous solvents for lignin. Adsorption effects were known to be absent in this case, and the lignin molecules were considered to be unassociated in formamide. The four fractions were distinguishable with the formamide–G-100 system, thus indicating that the original fractionation was based on molecular size. The enzymatically liberated lignin contained molecules that comprised a continuum of molecular weights from approximately monomeric to molecules that were at the limit of the solvating power of dioxane–water (1:1) and dimethylformamide. Limited physicochemical data were consistent with a compact, approximately spherically symmetric shape of the lignin in solution. 相似文献

The threshold surface porosity in the dormant spore of Bacillus cereus strain T was assessed by measuring passive permeabilities to a series of polydisperse polyethylene glycol samples which increased in average molecular size. The apparent exclusion threshold at diffusional equilibrium corresponded to a polymer of number-average molecular weight ( M(n)) = 150,000 and equivalent hydrodynamic radius ( r(ES)) = 16 nm, which confirmed a previous report. However, analytical gel chromatography before and after uptake by the spores revealed that only the low molecular weight fractions in a polymer sample distribution were taken up. From graphical analyses of the changes in molecular weight distributions, a quasi-monodisperse exclusion threshold was determined corresponding to M(n) = 8,000 and r(ES) = 3.2 nm. Thus, the equivalent porosity in the limiting outer integument appeared much more restrictive than heretofore shown for spores, although still more open than the monodisperse equivalent for the cell wall of vegetative bacilli. 相似文献

The molecular weights of the proteins from rabbit liver ribosomal 40 S and 60 S subunits were determined after preliminary separation of these proteins by two-dimensional electrophoresis: each spot present in the polyacrylamide slab was cut off, eluted and rerun in a SDS one-dimensional polyacrylamide gel. The molecular weights range from 9,000 to 35,000 with a number-average molecular weight of 19,600 for the 40 S proteins, and from 9,400 to 52,000 with a number-average molecular weight of 23,600 for 60 S proteins. 相似文献

The molecular weight distribution of sinistrin (Inutest ®, Laevosan Ges., Linz, Austria), determined by analytical gel-permeation chromatography, using narrow fractions (wn< 1.07) obtained by preparative gel-permeation chromatography, covered the range 800–16,000 with n 2,500 and w 3,500. From viscosity measurements on dilute, aqueous solutions, the relation [η] 0.28 X M0.3 was obtained, indicating a branched molecular structure; the largest molecules can be described by a sphere with r 23 Å. Comparison of the content of glucose and reducing sugars in the fractions with the molecular weight determined by vapour-pressure osmometry indicated that a glucose end-group is present in the majority of the molecules. The percentage of glucose end-groups is higher in the fractions of lower molecular weight. From this finding, speculations on the biosynthesis of sinistrin are made. The specific optical rotation of sinistrin fractions decreases linearly with 1/n. 相似文献

THE SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION OF ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE AND ITS MOLECULAR FORMS IN PIG CEREBRAL CORTEX 总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2
Abstract— The distribution of acetylcholinesterase among the subcellular fractions of pig cerebral cortex was determined. The crude mitochondrial and microsomal fractions obtained by differential centrifugation accounted for 75% of the enzyme, with the remainder divided between the crude nuclear and soluble fractions.
The occurrence and distribution of the multiple molecular forms of AChE was the same in all four fractions with the dominant species of molecular weights 350,000, 270,000 and 60,000. Further purification of the mitochondrial fraction by density gradient centrifugation gave a series of membrane fractions with very similar multiple forms. The one possible exception was the fraction containing the purified synaptosomal membranes where one band of mol wt 270,000 predominated, although the other molecular weight entities were present. The electrophoretic pattern of AChE present in the fractionated microsomes was the same as in the crude preparation. The content and pattern of the multiple molecular forms of AChE was therefore the same in all fractions of pig brain, apart from that containing the purified synaptosomal membranes. 相似文献

Periploca sepium Bunge (Chinese silk vine) is a woody climbing vine belonging to the family Asclepiadaceae. It originally comes from Northwest China. Periploca resembles the Para-rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis, regarding a similar body plan to produce a milky exudate containing rubber latex. The Periploca plant was assessed as a rubber-producing plant by rubber structure elucidation and its molecular weight distribution. A rubber fraction purified from the milky exudate was subjected to 1H NMR analysis, and a characteristic signal derived from cis-polyisoprene was observed. In addition, when the molecular weight distribution of rubber components in the exudate was measured (using size-exclusion chromatography), the number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), and polydispersity (Mw/Mn) were estimated to be Mn = 1.3 x 10(5), Mw = 4.1 x 10(5), and Mw/Mn = 3.1, respectively. Furthermore, the presence of polyisoprene, with Mn = 4.0 x 10(4), Mw = 7.6 x 10(4), and Mw/Mn = 2.5, was also confirmed in plantlets obtained from shoots as a result of tissue culture. 相似文献

Heterogeneity in molecular weight and degree of deacetylation (DDA) of chitosans from different sources and preparation methods were studied by fractionating chitosans, using semi-preparative SEC, and then determining molecular weight profiles of fractions by analytical SEC with multi-angle laser light scattering (SEC–MALLS), and degree of deacetylation (DDA) by 1H NMR. Fractionation of two high molecular weight chitosans from different manufacturers, produced fractions that spanned a wide range of molecular weight (number-average Mn), from 65 to 400 kDa in one case, that was not evident when unfractionated material was directly analyzed by SEC providing Mn = 188 kDa and PDI = Mw/Mn = 1.73. In a second case, fractions ranged from 20 to 600 kDa with unfractionated Mn = 145 kDa and PDI = 1.83. Fractionation of low molecular weight chitosans also showed a broad range of molecular weight in the original material, however, the fractions obtained with the TSKgel G4000W column in the Mn range of 5–100 kDa were essentially monodisperse with PDIs between 1.0 and 1.4. The DDA of one low molecular weight chitosan (10 kDa) produced by nitrous acid degradation was dependent on the Mn of the fraction. This semi-preparative fractionation procedure revealed important compositional heterogeneities of chitosans not evident in unfractionated material, and permitted the production of monodisperse low molecular weight chitosans with homogeneous properties. 相似文献

The molecular weight distribution of the components of giant hornet (Vespa orientalis) venom was studied, using gel-filtration on a column with Sephadex G-50. The effects of the venom and its constituent fractions on the permeability and stability of artificial bilayer phospholipid membranes, potassium ions release from the erythrocytes and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation parameters, as well as on the activity and stability of polyenzymic systems of the mitochondrial respiratroy chain, were studied. The data obtained suggest that the high molecular weight fractions contain phospholipases, whose activities are much higher than those of presently known venoms. Despite the fact that the hemolytic effect is typical for two low molecular weight fractions, no fractions possessing high activity of bee venom of the melitin type were found. 相似文献

Phosphodiesterase II activity was determined by using a synthetic substrate, the 2,4-dinitrophenyl ester of thymidine 3'-phosphate. The enzyme activity was determined in fractions obtained by differential centrifugation of homogenates of epithelial cells from the small intestinal mucosa of guinea pigs and rats. In guinea-pig preparations phosphodiesterase II occurred with highest specific activity in those fractions rich in succinate dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase. A lysosomal location for the guinea-pig enzyme was indicated by its structure-linked latency and by its association with particles that under-went a characteristic decrease in equilibrium density when Triton WR-1339 was injected into the animals. With rat preparations a much greater proportion of the phosphodiesterase II activity was found in the soluble fraction after ultracentrifugation. The rat enzyme exhibited a lower degree of latency and administration of Triton WR-1339 had no effect. The rat enzyme further differed from that of the guinea pig in other respects; it was more labile at 60 degrees C, it exhibited a lower pH optimum and it had a higher molecular weight as determined by gel-filtration chromatography. 相似文献

Porosity of the Yeast Cell Wall and Membrane 总被引:19,自引:7,他引:12
The limiting sizes of molecules that can permeate the intact cell wall and protoplast membrane of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were determined from the inflection points in a triphasic pattern of passive equilibrium uptake values obtained with a series of inert probing molecules varying in molecular size. In the phase identified with the yeast protoplast, the uptake-exclusion threshold corresponded to a monodisperse ethylene glycol of molecular weight = 110 and Einstein-Stokes hydrodynamic radius (r(ES)) = 0.42 nm. In the cell wall phase, the threshold corresponded to a polydisperse polyethylene glycol of number-average molecular weight ( M(n)) = 620 and average radius (r(ES)) = 0.81 nm. The third phase corresponded to complete exclusion of larger molecules. The assessment of cell wall porosity was confirmed by use of a second method involving analytical gel chromatographic analyses of the molecular weight distribution for a single polydisperse polyglycol before and after uptake by the cells, which indicated a quasi-monodisperse threshold for the cell wall of M(n) = 760 and r(ES) = 0.89 nm. The results were reconciled with two situations in which much larger protein molecules previously have been reported able to penetrate the yeast cell wall. 相似文献

1. A rapid and sensitive method for the accurate estimation of the molecular-weight distribution of keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate isolated from adult bovine nasal septum and intervertebral disc is described. The method utilizes gel chromatography of reductively labelled glycosaminoglycan and end-group estimation of number-average molecular weight for each fraction across the peak of eluted glycosaminoglycan. 2. Chain-length distribution data obtained by this procedure are used to evaluate mechanisms of chondroitin sulphate biosynthesis. 相似文献

1. The rates of hydrolysis of 26 synthetic dipeptides by extracts from highly purified lysosomal fractions from rat liver at pH 5.0 and by whole liver homogenates at pH 7.4 have been determined. Extracts from the lysosomal fractions hydrolysed most peptides at a lower rate per mg protein than the homogenates, and some peptides not at all. 2. Properties of two dipeptidases present in the extracts from the lysosomal fractions, splitting Ile-Glu and Leu-Gly, respectively, were studied in greater detail. The enzyme that hydrolysed Ile-Glu was strongly activated by dithiothreitol, showed optimal activity at pH 4.5 and had a molecular weight of about 120 000. Leu-Gly dipeptidase did apparently not contain an essential thiol group and had a molecular weight of approx. 90 000. It showed maximal activity at pH 6.5. 3. After differential centrifugation of liver homogenates, Ile-Glu and Leu-Gly-splitting activities were determined in the fractions, under the optimal conditions mentioned above. The Ile-Glu-hydrolysing enzyme activity showed about the same distribution as the lysosomal marker enzyme acid phosphatase. Leu-Gly-splitting activity, however, was largely present in the cytosol fraction, with only a small peak in the lysosomal fraction. We obtained evidence that the activities present in the lysosomal fraction and in the cytosol fraction were due to different enzymes, and that one of these enzymes was localized exclusively in lysosomes. 4. It is concluded that some dipeptides originating from intralysosomal proteolysis might be split by lysosomal dipeptidases, whereas others are probably hydrolysed only in the extra-lysosomal compartment of the cell. 相似文献

Soil mobility of a complete humic acid and high and medium molecular weight fractions was determined by a soil TLC method.
High and medium molecular weight fractions were obtained by ultrafiltration and then labeled with radioiodine. Infrared, visible-
and UV spectra, as well as isotachophoretic studies, showed marked differences among the three humic fractions. The results
obtained made evident the presence of soil mobile humic fractions of medium molecular weight. Alkalinization increased the
soil mobility of humic acid. 相似文献

Abstract— Proteins undergoing rapid axonal transport in the garfish olfactory nerve were examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis. The distribution of polypeptides and the extent of their labeling by transported molecules was determined in several nerve subfractions including: total particulate, total membrane, mitochondrial and two membrane subfractions rich in axolemma. The polypeptide composition of the various fractions was found to be relatively similar, with each showing a major protein with an estimated MW of 58,000. Specific differences in the concentrations of certain proteins were noted between fractions, including differences between the lower and higher density axolemma rich subfractions. Axonally transported radioactivity was predominantly localized among high molecular weight proteins, with all fractions, except mitochondrial pellet, displaying a major peak of radioactivity centered at 126,000-MW. Several major proteins including the 58,000-MW band were labeled by rapid transport to a much smaller extent. Certain labeled peaks were found to be concentrated in individual fractions, particularly a polypeptide (MW 35,000) more predominantly found in the lower density axolemma rich fraction.
Systemic labeling of the nerve is found to give a general distribution of radioactivity on gels, which is clearly different from the pattern obtained after axonal transport labeling. 相似文献

The macromolecular AGAG in the urine of patients with Werner's syndrome were analyzed by enzymatic methods after digestion with chondroitinases and Streptomyces hyaluronidase. The molecular weight-dependent distribution of the urinary AGAG has been determined by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-100 column. The distribution of HA and HS was predominant in the macromolecular fractions. Chondroitin sulfate isomers were prominent in the low molecular weight fractions but the ratio of the 4-type to the 6-type increased with decreasing molecular weight. These observations indicated that Werner's syndrome is a metabolic disorder of the molecular weight-dependent AGAG composition. 相似文献

The composition, molecular weight and in vitro antioxidant activity of various sulfated polysaccharides obtained by anion
exchange chromatography, acid hydrolysis and radical process degradation of the crude sulfated polysaccharide extracted from
Laminaria japonica were compared. The low sulfated F-A2, with a peak-molecular weight (Mp) of 5–15 kDa, 14.5% sulfated ester and 21.8% glucuronic
acid, exhibited a very strong antioxidant activity on superoxide and hydroxyl radicals, with activity even higher than that
of large molecular weight fractions F-A and F-B. However, highly sulfated fractions with a peak-molecular weight below 15 kDa
had much lower antioxidant activities than other fractions. These results indicated that the sulfate group of the low molecular
weight fractions represents a physical block for the reaction with oxygen radicals. The chemical properties and antioxidant
activities of sulfated polysaccharide fractions obtained by radical process degradation of crude sulfated polysaccharide were
quite different from those obtained by acid hydrolysates. By radical process degradation, the high molecular weight was decreased
to give LM2 (Mp 8 kDa) and LM1 (Mp 1.5 kDa), with a yield of 40% and 15%, respectively. LM2 was enriched with fucose and sulfated
ester, while containing low amounts of glucuronic acid. The antioxidant activity showed that LM2 was unable to scavenge either
superoxide or hydroxyl radical, which suggested that radical process degradation targeted mainly ascopyllan-like species rich
in glucuronic acid, while the fraction rich in sulfated l-fucose remained unchanged. However, LM1 with Mp 1.5 kDa still retained apparent scavenging ability for superoxide radical,
although it contained no glucuronic acid and certain amounts of galactose and mannose as main neutral sugars. These result
suggest that the antioxidant activity of sulfated polysaccharides is apparently related not only to molecular weight and sulfated
ester content, as previously determined, but also to glucuronic acid and fucose content. 相似文献

The repeating pentasaccharide of O-antigen from Escherichia coli O111 contains galactose, glucose, N-acetylglucosamine, and colitose, the latter representing the major antigenic determinant. Phenol extraction of this strain was previously shown to release two fractions (I and II) containing O-antigen carbohydrate, and both fractions were believed to be lipopolysaccharide. We have now characterized fractions I and II and conclude that only fraction II represents lipopolysaccharide. Fraction II contains phosphate, 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate, beta-hydroxymyristic acid, and potent endotoxin activity, whereas fraction I was deficient in all of these properties of the lipid A and core oligosaccharide regions of lipopolysaccharide. Fractions I and II each represented 50% of the total cellular O-antigen, and both were present on the cell surface. Both fractions were metabolically stable, and no precursor-product relationship existed between them. Fraction II had a number-average molecular weight of 15,800, corresponding to an average of 12 O-antigen repeats per molecule. In contrast, fraction I had a number-average molecular weight of 354,000, corresponding to an average of 404 O-antigen repeats per molecule. Before heat treatment, cells of E. coli O111 are poorly agglutinated by O-serum; although this indicates the presence of a capsule, the corresponding K-antigen was never detected. We conclude that fraction I, when present on the cell surface, inhibits agglutination of unheated cultures of E. coli O111 by O-serum because: (i) a variant strain which lacks fraction I was agglutinated by O-serum without prior heating; (ii) erythrocytes coated with purified fraction I behaved like bacteria containing fraction I in showing inhibition of O-serum agglutination; and (iii) heat treatment released fraction I and rendered bacterial cells agglutinable in O-serum. 相似文献

AbstractThe formation of PGE-humic acid (HA) complexes in soil and street dust samples was investigated. In order to assess the distribution of Pt and Pd among molecular weight fractions of humic substances, the HA extracts (extracted by 0.1 mol L?1 sodium pyrophosphate) were analysed by size exclusion chromato-graphy coupled on-line with UV-Vis detection. Similar chromatograms were obtained for soils and street dust samples (254 nm, 280 nm) and two size fractions were operationally defined as high (1600–5000 Da) and low molecular (< 1600 Da) HA fractions. The concentration of Pt and Pd in the separated extracts was determined by ICP-MS. The results indicate that up to 43% of Pt is in the high molecular and up to 52% in the low molecular HA fraction. In both type of soil samples, Pd is preferentially bound to the low molecular HA fraction. Dependence of Pd–HA and Pt–HA formation on the sample type both in the soils and in the street dust sample as well as on Pt oxidation state was established. Metallic Pt shows a tendency for complexation with the fractions of HA higher than 5000 Da. In the street dust samples, the distribution of Pt and Pd is similar and is strongly dependent on the sample type, being bound mainly to the fractions: higher than 5000 Da, 1600–5000 Da and the fraction lower than 1600 Da. 相似文献
