By means of CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography, gel-filtration on sephadex G-75 and Sephacryl S-200 columns, a purified fibrinogenase, kistomin, was obtained from venom of Agkistrodon rhodostoma. It was a single peptide-chain with a molecular mass of about 21,800 Da containing about 202 amino-acid residues as revealed by amino acid analysis. Kistomin preferentially cleaved A alpha- and subsequently the gamma-chain of fibrinogen, leaving the B beta-chain unaffected. Its fibrinogenolytic activity was estimated to be 36.6 +/- 4.5 mg/min per mg protein and was inhibited by the pretreatment of EDTA, suggesting that it is a metalloproteinase. Its fibrinogenolytic activity in platelet-poor plasma is much less potent as compared to that in purified fibrinogen solution. It inhibited ristocetin-induced aggregation of human platelets in a dose-dependent manner in the presence of von Willebrand factor. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a fibrinogenase from the venom of Western Diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A fibrinogenolytic enzyme was isolated from the venom of Western Diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus atrox) by a three-step procedure involving gel filtration and anion-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight was estimated as 22 900 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point was found to be pH 4.65. The enzyme rapidly destroyed the ability of bovine fibrinogen to form a clot on incubation with thrombin. Incubation of fibrinogen with the fibrinogenolytic enzyme for 5 min resulted in the disappearance of the beta-chain of fibrinogen and the appearance of lower molecular weight fragments. Thus the enzyme can be classified as a beta-fibrinogenase. However, on prolonged incubation of the fibrinogen there was also a partial digestion of the alpha-chain. The fibrinogenase showed no activity towards fibrin or casein or arginine esters. The fibrinogenolytic activity was inhibited by phenylmethanesulphonyl fluoride (PMSF) but was unaffected by EDTA. 相似文献

By means of CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography, Trimeresurus mucrosquamatus venom was separated into twenty fractions. The fibrinogenolytic activity was concentrated in Fractions 8, 10, 12, 13 and 14. Fractions 8 and 13 had the highest ratio of fibrinogenolytic and caseinolytic activities. Fraction 8 possessed tosyl-l-arginine methyl esterase activity, while the others did not. The caseinolytic activities of Fractions 10, 12, 13 and 14 were inhibited by EDTA, while that of Fraction 8 was not. Fractions 8 and 13 were further purified by CM-cellulose and gel filtration and were homogeneous as judged by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel and cellulose acetate membrane. The molecular weights of the purified Fractions 8 and 13 were 26 000 and 22 400, respectively. Both were single peptide chains. The specific fibrinogenolytic activity of Fraction 8 was 17 mg fibrinogen/min/mg protein, while that of Fraction 13 was 100 mg fibrinogen/min/mg protein. Fraction 13 digested specifically the α(A) chain of monomeric fibrinogen to yield two cleavage products. Fraction 8 digested the β(B) chain first to yield four cleavage products. When the incubation time was prolonged, the α(A) chain was also partially digested by Fraction 8 to yield two cleavage products. 相似文献

Plasminogen activator "Ahh-32" from Agkistrodon halys halys venom has been isolated and purified using affinity and ion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme consists of the single peptide-chain with molecular weigth of 32 kDa. It can convert free plasminogen into active form--plasmin. "Ahh-32" was inhibited by DFP and benzamidine. Besides, the enzyme influences significantly the activation of plasminogen by streptokinase without having effect on analogical process in case of usage of tissue tipe plasminogen activator. The obtained protein can be used as an instrument under investigation of protein-protein interactions in haemostasis system. 相似文献

By means of DEAE-Sephadex A-50 Column chromatography, Trimeresurus gramineus venom was separated into twelve fractions. The fibrinogenolytic activities were distributed in Fractions 1 and 10. These enzymes were further purified by gel filtration and were homogeneous as judged by cellulose acetate membrane, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugal analysis. Both of them were single peptide chains. The sedimentation constants of alpha- (Fraction 1) and beta-fibrinogenases (Fraction 10) were 2.20 and 3.60, respectively. The molecular weights of alpha- and beta-fibrinogenases were 23 500 and 25 000 respectively. The contents of proline and glycine were higher in beta-fibrinogenase than in alpha-fibrinogenase. The isoelectric points of alpha-fibrinogenase and beta-fibrinogenase were pH greater than 10 and 4.5, respectively. The optimal pH of alpha-fibrinogenase was approx. 7.4 and that of beta-fibrinogenase was approx. 9.0. The activity of alpha-fibrinogenase was completely destroyed after 30 min at 60 degrees C, pH 5.4, 7.4 and 9.0, while that of beta-fibrinogenase was much less affected by the same treatment. The specific fibrinogenolytic activity alpha-fibrinogenase was 31 mg fibrinogen/min per mg protein, while that of beta-fibrinogenase was 9 mg fibrinogen/min per mg protein. alpha-Fibrinogenase cleaved specifically the alpha(A) chain of monomeric fibrinogen without cleaving the beta(B) chain and gamma-chain. beta-fibrinogenase preferentially cleaved the beta(B) chain, and the alpha(A) chain was also partially cleaved by beta-fibrinogenase, if the incubation time was prolonged. Both enzymes showed proteolytic activities toward fibrinogen, fibrin and casein, but were devoid of phospholipase A, alkaline phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase activities found in the crude venom. The tosyl-L-arginine methylester esterase activity of beta-fibrinogenase was about 14 times that of crude venom, while alpha-fibrinogenase was completely devoid of this activity. The fibrinogenolytic activity of alpha-fibrinogenase was markedly inhibited by EDTA and cysteine, while that of beta-fibrinogenase was inhibited markedly by phenylmethanesulfonylfluoride. alpha- and beta-fibrinogenases exert their fibrinogenolytic activity by a direct action on fibrinogen or fibrin without activation of plasminogen. 相似文献

Gloshedobin, a thrombin-like enzyme from the venom of Gloydius shedaoensis was expressed as Hsp70 fusion protein from the construct pPIC9K/hsp70-TLE in the yeast Pichia pastoris. By fusing gloshedobin to the C-terminus of Hsp70, an expression level of 44.5 mg Hsp70-gloshedobin per liter of culture was achieved by methanol induction. The fusion protein secreted in the culture medium was conveniently purified by two chromatographic steps: Q-Sepharose FF and Superdex 200. The purified enzyme had an apparent molecular mass of 98 kDa according to SDS–PAGE analysis, and exhibited fibrinogenolytic activity that preferentially degraded fibrinogen α-chain. The enzyme also degraded fibrinogen β-chain to a lesser extent, while showing no degradation toward the γ-chain. A fibrinogen clotting activity of 499.8 U/mg was achieved by the enzyme, which is within the range reported for other thrombin-like enzymes. Hsp70-gloshedobin had strong esterase activity toward the chromogenic substrate Nα-p-tosyl-Gly-Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide, and this activity was optimal at pH 7.5 and 50 °C, and was completely inhibited by PMSF, but not by EDTA. We concluded that Hsp70 has no effect on the physiochemical and biochemical properties of gloshedobin. Although applying a fusion partner with very big molecular weight is unusual, Hsp70 proved its advantage in soluble expression of gloshedobin without affecting its fibrinogenolytic activity. And this positive result may provide an alternative strategy for the expression of thrombin-like enzymes in microbial system. 相似文献

A novel fibrinogenolytic protease was purified from Bacteroides fragilis strain YCH46. The protease was extracted from cells by ultrasonic treatment and was purified 425-fold with a recovery of 2.1% by sequential procedures using azocasein as a substrate. The purified protease showed a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with an estimated molecular weight of 100 kDa, which was consistent with the value obtained by gel filtration, indicating a monomeric native structure. Its optimal pH, Km, and Vmax for azocasein were 7.5, 0.2%, and 286 U/min/mg, respectively. The protease activity was completely inhibited by addition of 1 mM Hg2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, diisopropyl fluorophosphate, N-ethylmaleimide or p-chloromercuribenzoate but not by the inhibitors of metalloprotease or aspartic protease, suggesting that the enzyme is a serine-thiol-like protease. The protease hydrolyzed azocasein, casein, fibrinogen, gelatin, and azocoll, but not bovine serum albumin, ovalbumin, fibrin, fibronectin, immunoglobulins, transferrin, hemoglobin or types I, III, and IV collagen. The enzyme also hydrolyzed the chromogenic substrates alanyl-alanine p-nitroanilide, L -valyl-alanine p-nitroanilide, alanyl-alanyl-valyl-alanine p-nitroanilide, and glycyl-proline p-nitroanilide, but was inert toward L -alanine p-nitroanilide, alanyl-alanyl-alanine p-nitroanilide, and N-α-benzoyl-DL -arginine p-nitroanilide. The protease completely hydrolyzed the α-chain of fibrinogen at 37 C within 10 hr and at the same time the time required for clotting of protease-treated fibrinogen by thrombin was prolonged. The fibrinogenolytic activity of a crude extract of B. fragilis was stronger than that of other species of the Bacteroides fragilis group tested: B. ovatus, B. distasonis, B. eggerthii, B. uniformis, and B. thetaiotaomicron. These results suggest that the fibrinogenolytic protease is an important biological factor in Bacteroides infection. 相似文献

An extracellular beta-xylosidase from a newly isolated Fusarium proliferatum (NRRL 26517) capable of utilizing corn fiber xylan as growth substrate was purified to homogeneity from the culture supernatant by DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B batch adsorption chromatography, CM Bio-Gel A column chromatography, Bio-Gel A-0.5 m gel filtration and Bio-Gel HTP Hydroxyapatite column chromatography. The purified beta-xylosidase (specific activity, 53 U/mg protein) had a molecular weight of 91,200 as estimated by SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH for the action of the enzyme were 60 degrees C and 4.5, respectively. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed xylobiose and higher xylooligosaccharides but was inactive against xylan substrates. It had a Km value of 0.77 mM (p-nitrophenol-beta-D-xyloside, pH 4.5, 50 degrees C) and was competitively inhibited by xylose with a Ki value of 5 mM. The enzyme did not require any metal ion for activity and stability. Comparative properties of this enzyme with other fungal beta-xylosidases are presented. 相似文献

An elastase-like chymotrypsin was purified by aprotinin-agarose affinity chromatography from the midgut extract of cardamom shoot and capsule borer, Conogethes punctiferalis. The purified enzyme had a Vmax of 687.6 +/- 22.1 nmole pNA released/min/mg protein, Km of 0.168 +/- 0.012 mM with SAAPLpNA as substrate and gave a single band on SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of 72.1 kDa. Casein zymogram revealed one clear zone of proteolytic activity, which corresponded to the band obtained with SDS-PAGE indicating that this could be a single-polypeptide enzyme. 相似文献

A novel non-hemorrhagic metalloproteinase, AHPM, was purified from the venom of Agkistrodon halys pallas by a combination of ion-exchange and gel filtration chromatography. AHPM is a dimeric glycoprotein with multiple pIs around pH 7.9 and has a molecular mass of 110 kDa with two blocked N-terminuses. Partial sequence of AHPM obtained by LC-MS/MS analysis together with its dimeric nature reveals that it is a P-IIIc snake venom metalloproteinase composed of metalloproteinase, disintegrin-like and cysteine-rich domains. AHPM has a conserved DECD sequence in the disintegrin-like domain. AHPM hydrolyzes casein and fibrinogen and also dissolves fibrin clots and the proteolytic activity is abolished by EDTA, but not by PMSF, suggesting that it is a metalloproteinase. The protease hydrolyzes rapidly the Aα-chain of fibrinogen followed by the Bβ-chain and does not cleave the γ-chain. AHPM contains endogenous Zn2+ and Ca2+ ions at a molar ratio of 1:1.9 and 1:4.2, respectively, and Zn2+ ions are essential for its proteolytic activity. AHPM inhibits collagen-and ADP-induced platelet aggregation with half maximal inhibitory concentrations of 200 ± 8 nM and 280 ± 10 nM, respectively. EDTA markedly attenuates the inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation by AHPM, indicating that the fibrinogenolytic activity of AHPM is involved in its inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation. AHPM is devoid of hemorrhagic activity when injected (up to 30 μg) subcutaneously into mice. AHPM is so far identified as first non-hemorrhagic P-IIIc SVMP which has both fibrinolytic and platelet aggregation-inhibition activities. The bifunctional enzyme may have a potential clinical application as a thrombolytic agent. 相似文献

Blood clots produced by snake‐venom thrombin‐like enzymes (SVTLEs) are cleared rapidly, which makes SVTLEs attractive as potential candidates for antithrombotic therapy. We isolated a SVTLE, agkihpin, from the venom of Gloydius halys Pallas . Agkihpin was confirmed to a single‐chain TLE with molecular mass of 25.5 kD, pI of 7.43, optimal pH of 8.0 (hydrolyzing TAME), linked carbohydrate absent, and weak fibrinogen clotting activity. It was also found that (i) G. halys might be the latest species in SVTLEs phylogenetic tree; (ii) different level of conservation was shown among the SVTLEs from the Viperidae snakes. Some of those site may account for different activities exhibited by those SVTLEs, especially position 181, at which a fibrinogenolytic activity increase was found when a basic and larger amino acid substituted by a neutral and smaller one; (iii) an extra α‐helix constructed with a ‘Pro + acidic amino acid + aromatic amino acid’ pattern was found in the SVTLEs from Gloydius and Agkistrodon snakes, although it does not necessarily imply an effect on the fibrinogenolytic activity of the SVTLEs. This study provided some new insight into the activity of SVTLE. 相似文献

In terminally differentiated epidermal cells dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.5) (DPP IV) is present mainly in a soluble form. We purified the enzyme from 2-day-old rat cornified cells to homogeneity by Sephadex G-200 and Mono-Q column chromatography and finally HPLC gel filtration on G3000SW. The enzyme was estimated to be Mr 190,000 by HPLC gel filtration and Mr 90,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-electrophoresis. The enzyme showed general properties reported for detergent-solubilized DPP IV from other tissues. It was Con A binding and almost completely inhibited by 1 mM diisopropyl fluorophosphate and Diprotin A. The pI was 5.6 and the pH optimum was 7.5. The specific activity for Gly-Pro-p-nitroanilide was 31.9 units/mg. HPLC analysis demonstrated the release of dipeptides of the N-terminal of substance P, beta-casomorphin, and their related peptides. A stoichiometric reaction of the enzyme on substance P was observed. The epidermal DPP IV had a Km of 0.3 mM and a kcat of 50.3 s-1 for substance P and the Km value decreased by shortening the peptide from the carboxyl-terminal amino acids. The enzyme hydrolyzed human and bovine beta-casomorphin with Km values of 0.025 and 0.05 mM, respectively. Shortening the bovine beta-casomorphin peptide chain did not affect enzyme affinity. 相似文献

Human angiotensin-converting enzyme has been purified, in a single chromatographic step, using a novel N-carboxyalkyl dipeptide CA-GlyGly (N-[1(S)-carboxy-5-aminopentyl]glycylglycine) synthesised in our laboratory. CA-GlyGly is a weak competitive inhibitor, Ki = 0.18 mM, and its inhibitory profile is markedly pH-dependent. Human lung and kidney angiotensin-converting enzyme were solubilised with Triton X-100 and after ammonium sulphate fractionation the crude extract was applied to a column containing CA-GlyGly coupled to agarose via a 2.8 nm spacer group. Electrophoretically pure human angiotensin-converting enzyme could be eluted by raising the pH of the chromatography buffer from 7.50 to 9.50. The specific activity of human angiotensin-converting enzyme purified from lung was 104 units/mg, while that from kidney was 88 units/mg. Molecular weight for both enzymes was estimated to be 160,000. The Km with respect to hippuryl-L-histidyl-L-leucine was 1.9 mM in the case of lung angiotensin-converting enzyme and 1.7 mM in that of kidney angiotensin-converting enzyme, while for the substrate angiotensin I Km values were 62 microM and 76 microM, respectively. Hydrolysis of either substrate was chloride-dependent and both enzymes were strongly inhibited by captopril. 相似文献

A plasminogen activator enzyme (LV-PA) from Lachesis muta muta venom was purified to homogeneity using gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions showed a single protein band with an Mr of 33,000 Da. It is an acidic glycoprotein which activates plasminogen to plasmin indirectly, functioning via prior formation of a molecular complex, known as plasminogen activator. The purified preparation catalyzes the hydrolysis of several p-nitroanilide peptide substrates containing Lys at the scissile bond. In contrast, no hydrolysis was detected on the synthetic substrates TAME and BAPNA, which contain arginine. By the use of the plasmin-specific chromogenic substrate Tos-Gly-Pro-Lys-pNA, the preparation had a plasmin-like activity of 0.68 U/mg, which was 35.8-fold higher than that of the crude venom from which it was prepared. In vitro, fibrin hydrolysis using LV-PA as plasminogen activator displayed more similarity with the effect produced by streptokinase (SK). SDS-PAGE (10%) analysis showed a 115-kDa complex formation after incubation of plasminogen with either LV-PA or SK. At a molar ratio of 50:1 (fibrinogen:enzyme), the preparation exhibited weakly fibrinogenolytic activity. However, LV-PA is distinguished from thrombin in that it does not clot fibrinogen. After incubation of LV-PA with platelet-rich plasma, the enzyme (2 microM) showed no effect on platelet aggregation induced by ADP, epinephrine, or collagen. Comparison of the N-terminal sequence of LV-PA with other snake venom plasminogen activators revealed that LV-PA exhibits a high degree of sequence identity with the TsVPA from Trimeresurus stejnegeri (90%) and with the Haly-PA from Agkistrodon halys (85%). LV-PA also has homology with other snake venom serine proteinases such as the thrombin-like/gyroxin analogue (38%) from bushmaster venom and with other coagulation serine proteases. The proteinase was readily inhibited by treatment with p-nitrophenyl p-guanidinebenzoate, p-aminobenzamidine, and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride but was not affected by metal chelators. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a recombinant β-galactosidase with transgalactosylation activity from Bifidobacterium infantis HL96 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A beta-galactosidase isoenzyme, beta-Gall, from Bifidobacterium infantis HL96, was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. The molecular mass of the beta-Gall subunit was estimated to be 115 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme appeared to be a tetramer, with a molecular weight of about 470 kDa by native PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH for o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) and lactose were 60 degrees C, pH 7.5, and 50 degrees C, pH 7.5, respectively. The enzyme was stable over a pH range of 5.0-8.5, and remained active for more than 80 min at pH 7.0, 50 degrees C. The enzyme activity was significantly increased by reducing agents. Maximum activity required the presence of both Na+ and K+, at a concentration of 10 mM. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, divalent metal cations, and Cr3+, and to a lesser extent by EDTA and urea. The hydrolytic activity using lactose as a substrate was significantly inhibited by galactose. The Km, and Vmax values for ONPG and lactose were 2.6 mM, 262 U/mg, and 73.8 mM, 1.28 U/mg, respectively. beta-Gall possesses strong transgalactosylation activity. The production rate of galactooligosaccharides from 20% lactose at 30 and 60 degrees C was 120 mg/ml, and this rate increased to 190 mg/ml when 30% lactose was used. 相似文献

Simultaneous purification and characterization of cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 from sheep liver 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cytochrome b5 was purified from detergent solubilized sheep liver microsomes by using three successive DEAE-cellulose, and Sephadex G-100 column chromatographies. It was purified 54-fold and the yield was 23.5% with respect to microsomes. The apparent Mr of cytochrome b5 was estimated to be 16,200 +/- 500 by SDS-PAGE. Absolute absorption spectrum of the purified cytochrome b5 showed maximal absorption at 412 nm and dithionite-reduced cytochrome b5 gave peaks at 557, 526.5 and 423 nm. The ability of the purified sheep liver cytochrome b5 to transfer electrons from NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase to cytochrome c was investigated. The K(m) and Vmax values were calculated to be 0.088 microM cytochrome b5 and 315.8 microM cytochrome c reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. Also the reduction of cytochrome b5 by reductase was studied and K(m) and Vmax values were determined to be 5 microM cytochrome b5 and 5200 nmol cytochrome b5 reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. The K(m) and Vmax values for the cofactor NADH in the presence of saturating concentration of cytochrome b5 were found to be 0.0017 mM NADH and 6944 nmol cytochrome b5 reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase was also partially purified from the same source, detergent solubilized sheep liver microsomes, by using two successive DEAE-cellulose, and 5'-ADP-agarose affinity column chromatographies. It was purified 144-fold and the yield was 7% with respect to microsomes. The apparent monomer Mr of reductase was estimated to be 34,000 by SDS-PAGE. When ferricyanide was used as an electron acceptor, reductase showed maximum activity between 6.8 and 7.5. The K(m) and Vmax values of the enzyme for ferricyanide were calculated as 0.024 mM ferricyanide and 673 mumol ferricyanide reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. The K(m) and Vmax values for the cofactor NADH in the presence of saturating amounts of ferricyanide were found to be 0.020 mM NADH and 699 mumol ferricyanide reduced/min/mg enzyme, respectively. 相似文献

7 alpha-Hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one 12 alpha-monooxygenase was purified from liver microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rabbits. The purification was carried out by solubilization of microsomes by cholate, fractionation with polyethylene glycol, affinity chromatography on cholate-Sepharose 4B column, hydroxylapatite column chromatography, chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B column, and a second hydroxylapatite column chromatography. The purified preparation gave a single major band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and contained 9.0 nmol of cytochrome P-450/mg of protein, which corresponded to 5.3-fold purification from microsomes on the basis of specific heme content. The specific activity of the enzyme expressed as enzyme activity per mg of enzyme protein was increased 315-fold from microsomes. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 56,000 from calibrated polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme-pH curve gave a peak at pH 7.0. The Michaelis constant for 7 alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one was 27 microM. Absorption spectra of the oxidized form of the enzyme showed a Soret band at 418 nm. 7 alpha-Hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one 12 alpha-monooxygenase activity was reconstituted from the purified cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, dilauroylglyceryl-3-phosphorylcholine, and NADPH. The purified enzyme was free from steroid 25-hydroxylase activity and that of 26- or 27-hydroxylase but revealed some activity for benzphetamine N-demethylation. The enzyme activity was not inhibited by metapyrone, aminoglutethimide, and KCN, but was seriously inhibited by nonionic detergents such as Emulgen 913. The enzyme was labile under low buffer concentrations but was stabilized at least for 4 weeks under higher buffer concentration such as 300 mM phosphate buffer. 相似文献
