PURIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CARNOSINE SYNTHETASE FROM MOUSE OLFACTORY BULBS

Carnosine synthetase was purified about 500-fold from mouse olfactory bulb to a specific activity of approx 25 nmol/min/mg. This is an increase of 800-fold over that previously reported for this enzyme from rat brain and 11 times higher than the most highly purified enzyme from chicken pectoral muscle. ATP was essential for activity and could not be replaced by ADP. NAD had no effect on the synthesis of carnosine. Of the β-alanine analogues tested, the purified mouse enzyme incorporated only γ-aminobutyric acid and β-amino-n-butyric acid into peptide linkage with histidine. Synthesis of carnosine by the mouse olfactory bulb enzyme was competitively inhibited by the histidine analogues, 1-methyl histidine and 3-methyl histidine, with K_i values which were at least 40 times the K_m value for histidine (16 μM). Ornithine and lysine were more efficient β-alanine acceptors than 1-methyl histidine for the mouse enzyme. Enzyme from olfactory epithelium and leg skeletal muscle of mice also showed higher K_i values for 1–methyl histidine than the K_m value for histidine. In contrast, carnosine-anserine synthetase from chicken pectoral muscle gave K_m values for histidine, 1-methyl histidine and 3-methyl histidine, which were all in the range of 4–12 μM. The differences in substrate specificity between the enzyme from mouse and chicken implies alternate routes of anserine synthesis in these species and predicts the occurrence of certain novel peptides in mouse brain.

使用DEAE纤维素柱层析、PBE-94层析聚焦、NADP~+-Sepharose 4B亲合层析及SephadexG-100凝胶过滤分离纯化了人脑醛糖还原酶。在DEAE层析中,用咪唑-HCI缓冲液替代了磷酸缓冲液,改善了分离效果。在聚丙烯酰胺及SDS聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳中,纯化的人脑醛糖还原酶均呈一条区带。它的pI为5.6,最适pH为6.5,分子量为36,000,底物特异性和氨基酸组成与其它哺乳动物的醛糖还原酶有相似性。开链式醛糖是醛糖还原酶的真正底物,它在开链式和半缩醛的平衡体系中占比例极小,因而推知醛糖还原酶对此底物有很高的K_(cat)和K_(cat)/K_m值,能有效地将它们还原成相应的醇。

PHOTOSYNTHETIC NITRITE REDUCTASE II. FURTHER PURIFICATION AND BIOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE ENZYME

1. Further purification of photosynthetic nitrite reductase (PNiR),which catalyzes the transfer of hydrogen (or electron) fromthe photolytic system to nitrite, is reported in this paper.Chromatography on DEAE- cellulose and Sephadex gel-filtrationwere effective for the purification of PNiR.
2. PNiR could befractionated into two components. It was inferredfrom the dataobtained that one of these components is identicalwith PPNR,and the other one may probably be a hitherto unreportedflavinenzyme containing FMN as prosthetic group.
3. The propertiesof these two components of PNiR were described,and the interrelationshipbetween these catalysts and possibleintermediary carriers ofthis electron transfer system was discussed.

HYPOXANTHINE-GUANINE-PHOSPHORIBOSYL-TRANSFERASE FROM RAT BRAIN (PURIFICATION, KINETIC PROPERTIES, DEVELOPMENT AND DISTRIBUTION)

Hypoxanthine-guanine-phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPR Tase; ECC 2.4.2.8) has been purified from rat brain 650-fold to about 50 per cent purity by conventional methods. An isoenzyme pattern of at least three components is observed on DEAE-cellulose chromatography. On polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis only one sharp band of enzyme activity can be detected. The apparent K_m-value determined for phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) is about 0.2 mM. The product, GMP, and also GDP, GTP, UMP, CMP, AMP and ATP are competitive inhibitors with respect to PRPP. Inhibition by a number of other nucleotides has also been investigated. Studies on the development of enzyme activity in the brain of the young rat show that a rapid increase occurs during the first 15-20 days of life and reaches a plateau thereafter. The regional distribution of HGPRTase activity in adult rat brain is more homogenous than that reported for human brain. The enzyme is predominantly a constituent of the soluble supernatant fraction, but can also be found in carefully washed synaptosomes. An antiserum against rat brain HGPRTase obtained from rabbits inhibits this enzyme to about 30 per cent of control activity, but does not crossreact with HGPRTases from rabbit or human erythrocytes.

DISTRIBUTION AND PROPERTIES OF ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME OF RAT BRAIN

Abstract— Angiotensin converting enzyme of rat brain was studied using Hip-His-Leu as substrate. The highest specific activity of the enzyme was associated with the microsomal fraction. The specific activity of the microsomal enzyme in several regions of the rat brain varied significantly. For example, the specific activities of the striatal and pituitary enzymes were about 10-fold greater than that of the cerebral cortical enzyme. The enzyme required chloride ion; moreover, activity was inhibited in the presence of disodium EDTA or O-phenanthroline, effects suggesting that the converting enzyme of brain is a metalloprotein. SQ-20881, a nonapeptide that inhibits converting enzyme in peripheral tissue, was a potent inhibitor of the enzyme of brain. In addition to Hip-His-Leu, the microsomal fraction was capable of liberating C terminal dipeptides from angiotensin I, Hip-Gly-Gly and Z-Gly- Gly-Val. The broad substrate specificity of the enzyme suggests that, in addition to the possible contribution of the enzyme to the brain renin-angiotensin system, other naturally occurring peptides might also be substrates for the enzyme.

PURIFICATION AND PROPERTIES OF CHOLINE ACETYLTRANSFERASE FROM THE NERVOUS SYSTEM OF DIFFERENT INVERTEBRATES

—Choline acetyltransferase has been purified from three invertebrate species, namely snail (Helix aspersa), cockroach (Periplaneta americana) and horse shoe crab (Limulus polyphemus.) All three enzymes followed a Theorell-Chance enzyme mechanism with a sequential addition of the substrates. All three enzymes were activated by sodium and potassium chloride and inhibited by high concentrations of magnesium or calcium chloride. The apparent K_m for choline and acetyl-CoA was for snail: K_mch= 370 μm ,K_mAcetyl-CoA= 51μm ; cockroach:K_mCh= 550 μm , K_mAcely-CoA= 16 μm horse shoe crab:K_mCn= 2700 μm K_mAcctyl-coA= 68 μm CoA inhibited the enzymes competitively with respect to acetyl-CoA and non-competitively with respect to choline. Acetylcholine inhibited the enzymes competitively with respect to choline and non-competitively with respect to acetyl-CoA. All the enzymes were inhibited strongly by 5,5′-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoate), iodoacetate, acryloylcholine, chloracetylcholine and 3-bromacetonyltrimethyl-ammonium. The enzymes were only weakly inhibited by the styrylpyridine derivatives. The isoelectric points were 5.3 and 5.0 for the horse shoe crab and cockroach enzymes respectively. All three enzymes showed low affinity for a cation-exchanger (CM-Sephadex).     

GROWTH PATTERNS OF PEA SEEDLINGS IN DARKNESS AND IN RED AND WHITE LIGHT

Thomson , Betty F., and Pauline Monz Miller . (Connecticut Coll., New London.) Growth patterns of pea seedlings in darkness and in red and white light. Amer. Jour. Bot. 48(3): 256–261. Illus. 1961.—Seedlings of peas were grown in vermiculite at 22°C. and exposed 16 hr. daily to red or white light or kept in darkness. Others were grown in soil in the greenhouse. Samples harvested daily to 16 days were dissected, the length of each internode and leaf measured and the total number of leaves and leaf primordia counted. The form of the stem apex and youngest primordia and interrodes is the same in light as in darkness. Leaf production is accelerated very slightly and the growth of leaves and internodes is decidedly accelerated by light. Leaf-leaf, leaf-internode and internode-internode correlations indicate that the morphogenetic effect of light is limited to later stages of organ growth. Dry weight is consumed more rapidly in light than in darkness, probably because of more rapid growth and slightly greater amounts of respiring tissue in light-grown plants.
