The glutathione S-transferases (EC 2.5.1.18) have been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from 105,000g supernatant of sheep liver homogenate by employing a combination of gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and affinity chromatography on S-hexylglutathione-linked Sepharose-6B columns. Approximately 70% of the original glutathione S-transferase activity toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and glutathione peroxidase activity toward cumene hydroperoxide could be recovered by this purification method. Of particular importance in developing this procedure was the fact that the enzyme preparation obtained after affinity column chromatography represented all the isozymes of sheep liver glutathione S-transferases. Further purification by CM-cellulose and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography resolved the glutathione S-transferases into seven distinct cationic isozymes designated C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6, and C-7 and five overlapping anionic transferases designated A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, and A-5, respectively, in the order of their elution from the ion-exchange columns. The sodium dodecyl sulfate SDS-gel electrophoretic data on subunit composition revealed that cationic enzymes are composed of two subunits with an identical Mr of 24,000 whereas a predominant subunit with Mr of 26,000 was observed in all anionic isozyme peaks except A-1. Cationic isozymes accounted for approximately 98% of the total peroxidase activity associated with the glutathione S-transferase whereas only A-1 of the anionic isozymes displayed some peroxidase activity. Isozyme C-4 was found to be the most abundant glutathione S-transferase in the sheep liver. Characterization of the individual transferases by their specificity toward a number of selected substrates, subunit composition, and isoelectric points showed some similarities to those patterns for human liver glutathione S-transferases. 相似文献

The isolation of a fetal rat liver glutathione S-transferase isoenzyme with high glutathione peroxidase activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A previously uncharacterized glutathione S-transferase isoenzyme which is absent from normal adult rat livers has been isolated from fetal rat livers. The enzyme was purified using a combination of affinity chromatography, CM-cellulose column chromatography and chromatofocusing. It is composed of two non-identical subunits, namely, subunit Yc (Mr 28,000) and a subunit (Mr 25,500) recently reported by us to be uniquely present in fetal rat livers and which we now refer to as subunit 'Yfetus'. The enzyme which we term glutathione S-transferase YcYfetus has an isoelectric point of approx. 8.65 and has glutathione S-transferase activity towards a number of substrates. The most significant property of the fetal isozyme is its high glutathione peroxidase activity towards the model substrate cumene hydroperoxide. We suggest that this isozyme serves a specific function in protecting fetuses against the possible teratogenic effects of organic peroxides. 相似文献

The glutathione S-transferases are a family of dimeric enzymes. Three isozymes from the alpha family, termed YaYa, YaYc, and YcYc, and three from the mu family, termed Yb1Yb1, Yb1Yb2, and Yb2Yb2, were purified from rat liver. Binding studies were performed by equilibrium dialysis using a radiolabeled product, S(-)[14C](dinitrophenyl)glutathione. Each isozyme contained two independent binding sites which had equal affinity for the ligand. The presence of two independent active sites per enzyme dimer suggests that each subunit contains a complete active site. This conclusion was examined further using radiation inactivation which also allowed for assessment of the importance of subunit interactions in catalytic activity. The activity target size of YaYa (47 kDa) was significantly larger than the protein monomer target size (31 kDa); similarly the activity target size of YaYc was that of the dimer (54 kDa). In contrast, the activity target sizes of Yb1Yb1 and Yb2Yb2 were the same, being 35 and 29 kDa, respectively, and the protein monomer target size of Yb1Yb1 also was similar, being 32 kDa. These data indicate that interactions between subunits are critical for the maintenance of enzymatic activity of alpha class enzymes whereas each subunit of the two mu class proteins is capable of independent catalytic activity. 相似文献

Specificity of the glutathione S-transferases in the conversion of leukotriene A4 to leukotriene C4 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have synthesized the 5,6-LTA4, 8,9-LTA4, and 14,15-LTA4 as methyl esters by an improved biomimetic method with yields as high as 70-80%. We have investigated the catalytic efficiency of the purified cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) isozymes from rat liver in the conversion of these leukotriene epoxides to their corresponding LTC4 methyl esters. Among various rat liver GST isozymes, the anionic isozyme, a homodimer of Yb subunit, exhibited the highest specific activity. In general, the isozymes containing the Yb subunit showed better activity than the isozymes containing the Ya and/or Yc subunits. Interestingly, all three different LTA4 methyl esters gave comparable specific activities with a given GST isozyme indicating that regiospecificity of GSTs was not the factor in determining their ability to catalyze this reaction. Surprisingly, purified GSTs from sheep lung and seminal vesicles showed little activity toward these leukotriene epoxides, indicating a lack of the counterpart of rat liver anionic GST isozyme in these tissues. 相似文献

Four types of glutathione S-transferase were purified to homogeneity from guinea pig liver by DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-75, CM-cellulose, and affinity chromatography. These isozymes were named a, b, c, and d based on the reverse order of elution from a CM-cellulose column, and had specific activities of 89.6, 92.2, 99.0, and 44.0 units/mg, respectively, when assayed with 1 mM each of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and reduced glutathione. All four transferases of guinea pig liver were homodimers. The transferases b, c, and d had a similar molecular weight of 50,000 and their subunit sizes were 25,000, but the corresponding values for transferase a were 45,000 and 23,500, respectively. Transferase a was notably different in the activities towards organic hydroperoxides and 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene from the other isozymes. Transferases a and b, the major forms in guinea pig liver, were studied with respect to their biochemical properties, including kinetic parameters, absorption and fluorescence spectra, and bilirubin binding. Glutathione peroxidase activity of the transferase a was about 100 times higher than that of other isozymes. In guinea pig liver, it is estimated that transferase a is the major glutathione peroxidase, accounting for about 75% of the total organic hydroperoxide reduction. 相似文献

The results of the present experiment are shown in terms of the transport of protoheme from mitochondria to apocytochrome b5 when fresh rat liver mitochondria, apocytochrome b5, and cytosol were incubated. The heme transfer protein was purified from rat liver cytosol up to approximately 133-140-fold with a 43% yield by the procedure discussed herein, including Sephadex G-75 and CM-cellulose column chromatography. The final preparation showed apparent homogeneity upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Its native form was found to be a dimeric protein with a Mr = 45,000 which consists of a subunit with a Mr = 23,000. In the transporting system, the heme transfer depended on the concentration of mitochondria (donor), apocytochrome b5 (acceptor), and purified transfer protein, respectively. Omission of one of these components led to an almost complete loss of the transfer activity. The transport of mitochondrial protoheme was a rapid reaction which showed approximate linearity until 1.5 min and after that it became saturated. When the functional capacity was tested by the NADH-cytochrome c reductase system, the reconstituted cytochrome b5 expressed its complete original catalytic properties, as well as its characteristic absorption spectra for the hemoprotein. Furthermore, the detailed physicochemical and immunological characterization of the transfer protein provided evidence that the protein is identical with soluble glutathione S-transferase, which conjugates glutathione with a variety of electrophilic compounds. At least one of the glutathione S-transferase isozymes observed was identified as GST-C2, which comprises the subunit of Yb'Yb' by the immunoprecipitation reaction using various anti-glutathione S-transferase isozyme antibodies. 相似文献

The soluble creatine kinase isozymes CK-II, CK-III, and CK-IV fromXenopus laevis have been purified to apparent homogeneity and their subunits characterized by means of molecular weight, peptide pattern, and dissociation-reassociation experiments. CK-III and CK-IV are homodimeric isozymes whose subunits are distinct in both molecular weight (42,000 and 41,000, respectively) andStaphylococcus aureus V8 peptide pattern. In dissociation-reassociation experiments, those two subunits do form active heterodimeric isozymes with one another or with rabbit M-CK subunits. Hybrid CK-III/IV isozymes occur also during embryonic differentiation and in adult heart muscle, whereas most other adult tissues contain only homodimeric CK-III or CK-IV isozymes. The CK-II isozyme is a heterodimer composed of one CK-III subunit and another subunit specific to CK-II (M r =41,000). Neitherin vivo norin vitro does this subunit seem able to form homodimers or heterodimers with CK-IV and rabbit M-CK subunits. If we take into account the apparent association of CK-I isozyme with cellular organelles, these results corroborate earlier statements and suggest that the CK isozyme system ofX. laevis is encoded by at least four differentially regulated genomic loci. 相似文献

Isozyme specificity of rat liver glutathione S-transferases in the formation of PGF2 alpha and PGE2 from PGH2 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
M Chang Y Hong J R Burgess C P Tu C C Reddy 《Archives of biochemistry and biophysics》1987,259(2):548-557
When prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) was incubated with a mixture of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) obtained from S-hexylglutathione affinity chromatography, as much as 40% of it was transformed into a prostanoid whose Rf value corresponded to that of the standard PGF2 alpha. The reaction product was identified as PGF2 alpha by cochromatography with a standard on TLC and HPLC. The stereochemistry of the hydroxyl groups on C-9 and C-11 of the cyclopentane ring was confirmed by mass-spectral analysis of the butylboronate derivative of the reaction product. Neither PGE2 nor PGD2 could substitute for PGH2 in the reaction mixture, indicating that the mechanism of formation of PGF2 alpha is a direct two-electron reduction of the endoperoxide moiety and not through a reduction of the keto group on PGE2 or PGD2. Individual GST isozymes exhibited distinct differences in their catalytic rates of formation of PGF2 alpha from PGH2. Among various GSTs, isozyme IV, a homodimer of Ya size subunit showed the highest activity with a Vmax value of approximately 6000 nmol.min-1.mg-1. In general, the isozymes containing Ya and Yc subunits exhibited relatively high activity toward PGH2, indicating that it is the non-selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase activity associated with the GSTs that might be responsible for the reduction of PGH2 to PGF2 alpha. Interestingly, isozyme IV also exhibited the highest PGE2 forming activity with a Vmax value of approximately 3000 nmol.min-1.mg-1 followed by isozyme I, a homodimer of Yb subunit, which had a Vmax value of 420 nmol.min-1.mg-1. Based on these results, it appears that the GSTs play an important role in the biosynthesis of classical PGs. Therefore, it is conceivable that the tissue-specific formation of PGF2 alpha and PGE2 might, in part, be due to the relative distribution of these enzyme activities in a given tissue. Our results have not only confirmed the previously published reports (E. Christ-Hazelhof et al. (1976) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 450, 450-461), but also have characterized the specificity of GST isozymes in the formation of PGF2 alpha. 相似文献

Regulation of cAMP concentration by calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Bovine brain contains two major calmodulin (CaM) dependent phosphodiesterase isozymes which are homodimeric proteins with subunit molecular masses of 60 and 63 kilodaltons (kDa), respectively. The 60-kDa subunit isozyme can be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, resulting in a decrease in the enzyme affinity towards CaM. The phosphorylation is blocked by Ca2+ and CaM and reversed by the CaM-stimulated phosphatase (calcineurin). The 63-kDa subunit isozymes can also be phosphorylated, but in this case by a CaM-dependent protein kinase(s). This phosphorylation is also accompanied by a decrease in the isozyme affinity towards CaM and can be reversed by the CaM-dependent phosphatase. Analysis of the complex regulatory properties of the phosphodiesterase isozymes has led to the suggestion that fluxes of cAMP and Ca2+ during cell activations are closely coupled and that the CaM-dependent phosphodiesterase isozymes play key roles in this signal coupling phenomenon. 相似文献

Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has very low constitutive glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity when assayed with the chloroacetamide herbicide dimethenamid as a substrate, which may account for its low tolerance to dimethenamid in the field. Treatment of seeds with the herbicide safener fluxofenim increased the total GST activity extracted from T. aestivum shoots 9-fold when assayed with dimethenamid as a substrate, but had no effect on glutathione levels. Total GST activity in crude protein extracts from T. aestivum, Triticum durum, and Triticum tauschii was separated into several component GST activities by anion-exchange fast-protein liquid chromatography. These activities (isozymes) differed with respect to their activities toward dimethenamid or 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as substrates and in their levels of induction by safener treatment. A safener-induced GST isozyme was subsequently purified by anion-exchange and affinity chromatography from etiolated shoots of the diploid wheat species T. tauschii (a progenitor of hexaploid wheat) treated with the herbicide safener cloquintocet-mexyl. The isozyme bound to a dimethenamid-affinity column and had a subunit molecular mass of 26 kD based on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme (designated GST TSI-1) was recognized by an antiserum raised against a mixture of maize (Zea mays) GSTs. Amino acid sequences obtained from protease-digested GST TSI-1 had significant homology with the safener-inducible maize GST V and two auxin-regulated tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) GST isozymes. 相似文献

Human placental glutathione S-transferase was purified to apparent homogeneity by direct application of the crude homogenate into glutathione linked sepharose affinity chromatography. Chromatofocusing analysis in the presence of reduced glutathione resolved the enzyme into three acidic peaks eluted at pH 6.0, 5.7 and 5.5. About 36% of the initial activity was recovered in the isozyme fraction eluted at pH 6.0 whereas the isozymes eluted at pH 5.7 and 5.5 accounted for 20% and 25% of the activity respectively. Disc gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed the presence of a single protein band in all the three separated isozymes. These isozymes were homodimers with an apparent relative molecular mass of 44.000 and subunit molecular mass of 21.000. The isozymes were immunologically related to each other and to the enzyme from goat and sheep placentae. Mother age had no influence in the placental glutathione S-transferase activity, albeit the activity was slightly higher in placenta obtained from younger women. 相似文献

Summary Cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isozymes of NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase were purified from kidney and heart tissue of an inbred strain of mice. The cytoplasmic isozyme was purified from kidney of DBA/2J mice by means of a four-step procedure which included affinity chromatography with an 8-(6-aminohexyl)-amino-NADP+-Sepharose column. The heart mitochondrial isozyme of DBA/2J mice was purified by a two-step procedure involving the use of 8-(6-aminohexyl)-amino-AMP-Sepharose and 8-(6-aminohexyl)-amino-NADP+-Sepharose columns. The specific activity of the homogeneous cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isozymes was 40 units/mg and 45 units/mg, respectively. Native and subunit molecular weights of these two isozymes were determined by chromatography on Sephadex G-100, G-150 and G-200 Superfine and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both isozymes were found to be dimers with the subunit molecular weight of approximatively 35,000. The sedimentation coefficients were determined to be 5.9 and 6.1 for the mitochondrial and cytoplasmic isozyme, respectively. The amino acid compositions of these two isozymes revealed distinct differences in arginine and proline contents. A modified procedure regarding the use of affinity columns for the purification of the weakly bound enzymes is also discussed.National Institute of Health Visiting Fellow. 相似文献

Rat liver phosphofructokinase isozymes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The labile phosphofructokinase activity of rat liver was found to be stabilized and efficiently extracted in 50 mm Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 50 mm NaF, 10 mm dithiothreitol, and 1.0 mm ATP. By the method of DEAE-cellulose chromatography liver phosphofructokinase activity could be resolved into two isozymes. The major isozyme which was 85% of the total isolated activity was purified to homogeneity. This 15,000-fold purified isozyme had a specific activity of about 90 IU/mg protein with 25–30% recovery of the total activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis of the sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated isozyme indicated a subunit molecular weight of 65,000. Antiserum to the major isozyme was obtained from rabbits, and immunotitration of the two isozymes indicated that they were immunologically different. Kinetic properties of the two isozymes indicated that the major isozyme was more susceptible to ATP and citrate inhibition as well as relief of ATP and citrate inhibition by fructose-6-P, AMP, and ammonia. With the use of DEAE-cellulose chromatography and antiserum titration of 100,000g supernatant fluids, it was shown that the two hepatic isozymes were always found together in adult, embryonic, and neoplastic liver and in kidney. 相似文献

A method is described for the purification from Bacteroides nodosus of five individual proteinase isozymes which could not be purified by column chromatography techniques. The isozymes were separated by horizontal slab polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Their exact location within the gel was determined with a fluorescein-casein substrate, and they were extracted from the gel by a simple electroelution apparatus. In a typical purification, microgram quantities of three individual isozymes were recovered free of other isozyme activities. The other two isozymes were each contaminated (<5%) with another isozyme activity. Occasionally, all the individual isozymes were recovered in pure form. The molecular weights were 78,000, 82,000, 88,000, 96,000, and 107,000. 相似文献

Distribution of AMP-deaminase isozymes in rat tissues 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
1. The distribution of AMP deaminase isozymes in rat tissues was analyzed by electrophoresis on cellulose acetate membrane, by chromatography on phosphocellulose column, and by the application of immunological technique employing specific antisera against three parental AMP deaminases (isozymes A, B and C). Skeletal muscle extracts and diaphragm extracts contain a single identical isozyme, isozyme A. The major isozyme species of liver, kidney and testes are also identical and they are isozyme B. Heart extracts contains isozyme C exclusively. Extracts of brain, lung and spleen contain five isozymes, presumably a complete set of five B-C hybrids. 2. Developmental patterns of AMP deaminase isozyme were studied. In early postnatal life, extracts of heart, liver, kidney and lung contain five isozymes similar to those observed in adult brain. During postnatal development, a shift to isozyme C occurs in heart, whereas a shift to isozyme B occurs in liver and kidney. Five isozymes in lung remain throughout development. In brain a shift of B to five isozymes is observed during development. Isozyme A is the predominant form in muscle throughout postnatal development. 3. AMP deaminase in the regenerating liver was analyzed, but the data indicated that there was no change of isozyme distribution during hepatic regeneration. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of phosphoglycerate mutase isozymes from pig heart 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The three isozymes of phosphoglycerate mutase from pig heart have been purified to homogeneity. The isozymes have a molecular weight of 57000 as determined by gel-filtration chromatography. Discontinuous gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate yields a single band with a molecular weight of 29000, indicating that the isozymes are dimers composed of subunits of similar mass. Hybridization experiments show that the three isozymes result from homodimeric and heterodimeric combinations of two different subunits. The two types of subunit differ in their heat lability and in the presence of -SH groups essential for enzymatic activity. No remarkable differences exist in the kinetic constants of the purified isozymes. The kinetic pattern is consistent with a 'ping-pong' mechanism. The homogeneous preparations of the three isozymes show intrinsic glycerate-2,3-P2 synthase activity and glycerate-2,3-P2 phosphatase activity which can be stimulated by glycolate-2-P. 相似文献

A calmodulin-dependent nitric oxide synthase was significantly induced in the liver of rats treated intravenously with heat-killed Propionibacterium acnes and 5 days later with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide. The apparent calmodulin-dependent and -independent isozymes were separated by Mono Q column chromatography after their partial purification by 2',5'-ADP-agarose affinity chromatography. Both enzymes had a molecular weight of 125,000 as determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and required NADPH, tetrahydrobiopterin, and dithiothreitol as cofactors. Their activities were completely inhibited by the specific nitric oxide synthase inhibitors NG-monomethyl-L-arginine and N omega-nitro-L-arginine at 80 and 800 microM, respectively. The peptide maps of these two isozymes with lysylendopeptidase and their reverse-phase column chromatographic profiles were indistinguishable. In the presence of bovine calmodulin, the purified calmodulin-dependent isozyme behaved as a calmodulin-independent isozyme on Mono Q column chromatography. The purified calmodulin-independent isozyme was converted to a calmodulin-dependent isozyme by EDTA and EGTA. Calmodulin blot analysis using 125I-calmodulin showed that the two isozymes bound calmodulin equally efficiently. 相似文献
