Use of ethanol-eluted hydrophobic interaction chromatography in the purification of serum amyloid A. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A two-step procedure for the purification of the acute-phase reactant serum amyloid A from serum is described. A hydrophobic interaction chromatography medium, octyl-Sepharose CL4B, eluted with increasing concentrations of EtOH was used as the first step in the purification. The concentrate from this step was applied to a gel filtration column of Sephacryl S-200 and eluted with 10% formic acid. The overall recovery of purified serum amyloid A from serum was 56%. This represents the first time that serum amyloid A has been purified without the use of high concentrations of guanidine or urea. The method presented could easily be scaled up to allow the purification of large quantities of serum amyloid A or readily adapted to the purification of other serum apolipoproteins. 相似文献

The adherence of Streptococcus sanguis to saliva-coated hydroxylapatite was markedly reduced by treatment of the cells with trypsin. In Scatchard plots of adherence data, protease-treated S. sanguis did not exhibit the characteristic positive slopes, suggesting that trypsin prevented cooperative interactions between the cells and artificial pellicle. Trypsin also reduced the tendency of S. sanguis to bind to hexadecane and to octyl-Sepharose. When sodium dodecyl sulfate was used to elute S. sanguis from columns of octyl-Sepharose, it was observed that the elution profiles of trypsin-treated cells were more complex than those of control cells. Water and salts were incapable of removing the cells from octyl-Sepharose. The results suggest that adherence to saliva-coated hydroxylapatite, binding to hexadecane and to octyl-Sepharose depend on trypsin-susceptible cell surface molecules. 相似文献

Abstract Several different monomeric proteins with either one or two domains were used to study the effect of protein unfolding on effective hydrophobicity of proteins. Protein unfolding was inhibited by cross-linking with either toluene diisocyanate or glutaraldehyde. The native enzyme was much more readily bound to the hydrophobic resin than the cross-linked species. The ligand, 3-phosphoglycerate, significantly decreased the amount of phosphoglycerate kinase able to bind to octyl-Sepharose. Sucrose also caused a statistically significant decrease in protein binding to the hydrophobic resin. These studies support the concept that the degree of protein unfolding influences effective hydrophobicity as measured by retention on octyl-Sepharose. 相似文献

[3H]Leucine- and [35S]sulfate-labeled proteoheparan sulfates were isolated from postconfluent or proliferating cultures of human skin fibroblasts. Cell layers were solubilized by Triton X-100, and transferrin-binding macromolecules were isolated by affinity chromatography. Proteoglycans with no affinity for transferrin were purified by using ion-exchange and gel permeation chromatography. Postconfluent cells synthesize a proteoheparan sulfate of Mr 350,000 (as determined by gel permeation chromatography) which has affinity for transferrin as well as for octyl-Sepharose. Its core protein (Mr 180,000) consists of two disulfide-bonded polypeptides of Mr 90,000. This species was not detected in cultures of proliferating cells. Proliferating and confluent cells also synthesize other forms of proteoheparan sulfates (Mr 200,000-400,000) which have no affinity for transferrin. However, most of them have affinity for octyl-Sepharose. The core protein of proteoheparan sulfates made by proliferating cells has Mr 50,000. A smaller form (Mr 250,000) of this proteoglycan was solubilized by Triton X-100, whereas a larger form (Mr 400,000) remained associated with the pericellular matrix. A third type of proteoheparan sulfate (Mr 200,000) without affinity for transferrin nor octyl-Sepharose was associated with postconfluent cell layers but not with proliferating ones. Its core protein has Mr 35,000. Heparan sulfate oligosaccharides (Mr 6,000 or higher) were found in proliferating cells but not in postconfluent ones. 相似文献

Proteoglycan biosynthesis by human corneas from patients with types 1 and 2 macular corneal dystrophy 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Corneal buttons were obtained from patients with types 1 and 2 macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) and from control patients with Fuchs' dystrophy or keratoconus. Buttons were incubated for 20 h in the presence of [3H]glucosamine or [2-3H]mannose. Radiolabeled proteoglycans and lactosaminoglycan-glycoproteins (L-GPs) were purified using chromatography on Q-Sepharose, Superose 6, and octyl-Sepharose. They were identified using chondroitinase ABC, keratanase or endo-beta-galactosidase digestion, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or Superose 6 chromatography. This study confirms previous reports that type 1 MCD corneas synthesize a normal dermatan sulfate-proteoglycan (DS-PG) and an abnormal keratan sulfate-proteoglycan (KS-PG). The data indicate that typ 1 MCD corneas synthesize L-GP instead of KS-PG. This L-GP has a core protein of similar hydrophobicity (elution from octyl-Sepharose) and nearly similar mass (42 kDa) as the core protein of the KS-PG. It has identical glycoconjugates as those of the KS-PG except that they lack sulfate. Thus, type 1 MCD fails to synthesize keratan sulfate as a result of a defect in a sulfotransferase specific for sulfating lactosaminoglycans. Further, proteoglycans synthesized by a cornea from a patient with type 2 MCD were studied. This cornea synthesized a normal ratio of KS-PG to DS-PG although net synthesis of proteoglycans was approximately 30% below normal. The KS-PG appeared normal whereas the DS-PG had dermatan sulfate chains that were approximately 40% shorter than normal. 相似文献

A soluble form of lysosomal sphingomyelinase was partially purified from human urine using concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B, Sephadex G-100 and octyl-Sepharose 4B chromatography. The octyl-Sepharose 4B eluate was used to immunise a rabbit. The antiserum obtained was able to precipitate about 70% of the sphingomyelinase activity present in urine from control subjects. Both the immunoprecipitable and non-precipitable activities were found to be deficient in urine from patients with Niemann-Pick disease Type A and Type B. In contrast, both activities were present in urine from patients with Niemann-Pick disease Type C. The antiserum was able to precipitate about 80% of the sphingomyelinase activity present in an aqueous extract of placenta. 相似文献

A solid-phase iodination method is described which employs either nitrocellulose paper, phenyl- and octyl-Sepharose beads, or octyl hydroxylapatite as matrices to adsorb proteins. Nitrocellulose lends itself to cases where denaturation of the iodinated proteins due to the use of chaotropic reagents or strong acids for protein elution can be tolerated. On the other hand, substituted Sepharoses, preferably octyl-Sepharose, should be used when preservation of the biological activity of the iodinated protein molecules is required; immunoglobulins and protein A, for instance, could be recovered as functionally active molecules because they were extracted from the hydrophobic matrices under nondenaturing conditions. Both methods are advantageous if, for example, series of fractions from column chromatographies (including HPLC) are to be iodinated and subsequently analyzed by gel electrophoresis or bioassays. Furthermore, the amount of radioactive waste can be reduced considerably. 相似文献

Viruses were characterized by their adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose or by their elution from octyl-Sepharose by using buffered solutions of sodium chloride with different ionic strengths. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced most rapidly by an increase in the sodium chloride concentration were considered to have the weakest electrostatic interactions with the solids; these viruses included MS2, E1, and phiX174. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced least rapidly were considered to have the strongest electrostatic interactions with the column; these viruses included P1, T4, T2, and E5. All of the viruses studied adsorbed to octyl-Sepharose in the presence of 4 M NaCl. Viruses that were eluted most rapidly following a decrease in the concentration of NaCl were considered to have the weakest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included phiX174, CB4, and E1. Viruses that were eluted least rapidly from the columns after the NaCl concentration was decreased were considered to have the strongest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included f2, MS2, and E5. 相似文献

Human skin tryptase: purification, partial characterization and comparison with human lung tryptase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Human skin tryptase was isolated using stepwise low- and high-salt extraction and further purified 448-fold with 33% yield using octyl-Sepharose CL-4B hydrophobic affinity chromatography, Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration and finally octyl-Sepharose CL-4B or cellulose phosphate ion exchange chromatography. The skin tryptase, which has an apparent Mr of 120,000 by gel filtration in high-salt buffer, consisted of polypeptide chains of Mr 34,000 and 38,000 when resolved on SDS gels. Both polypeptide chains, labelled with [3H]diisopropyl fluorophosphate, indicated that they were representative of subunits and that the native proteinase was an aggregate of subunits. However, in some preparations only one band with Mr 34,000 was seen. In low-salt buffer the enzyme was labile and at least 1.4 M KCl was needed to keep the enzyme stabile when incubated at 37 degrees C for 30 min. Heparin glycosaminoglycan partially stabilized the tryptase but addition of protein (e.g. albumin, 80 micrograms/ml) to the tryptase-heparin mixture was needed to keep the enzyme stabile. Tryptases purified by exactly the same method from human lung tissue and from human skin had identical molecular size in gel filtration and in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. They also revealed identical enzyme kinetic parameters with several synthetic peptide substrates. The inhibition profile was identical for both enzymes, and they also crossreacted completely in immunodiffusion plates. These studies strongly indicate that mast cells found in skin as well as lung contain closely related, possible identical trypsin-like proteinases. 相似文献

Detergent-solubilized intestinal maltase-glucoamylase was isolated 1 week postpancreatectomy (dMpanc) and purified in the presence of detergent and protease inhibitors. Upon sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under nondissociating conditions, the major band had a molecular weight of 280,000, slightly smaller than similar bands from detergent (dM) and papain (pM) solubilized maltase from nonpancreatectomized rats. Upon octyl-Sepharose CL-4B chromatography, 57% of the enzyme was eluted by aqueous buffer, unlike pM which was almost completely eluted or dM, 95% of which bound to the column. All fractions of dMpanic from octyl-Sepharose 4B were reduced, by boiling +/- beta-mercaptoethanol, to monomeric subunits, indicating that processing by pancreatic enzymes at the level of the brush border is not a requirement for the appearance of subunits in the rat. As well, under these dissociating conditions, the 145,000 subunit previously identified with the apolar terminus was present in all fractions of dMpanc, including the aqueous fraction, whereas pM contained only the 130,000 subunit. The presence of dMpanc in the aqueous fraction cannot be explained, therefore, by proteolytic cleavage of an apolar anchor segment from the 145,000 subunit. Pancreatic enzymes may affect the enzyme in a minor fashion, however, since aqueous solubility was enhanced and the apparent molecular weight was reduced by pancreatectomy, suggesting a more compact conformation with shielding of apolar segments. 相似文献

We have used purified preparations of acyl-acyl carrier protein synthetase to prepare pure, native acyl-acyl carrier proteins (acyl-ACP) ranging in chain lengths from C10:0 to C delta 9 18:1. Factors affecting yield are explored and reaction conditions are presented that yield 0.8 to 0.9 mg of C16:0-ACP/ml of reaction mix. Ohter acyl groups, such as C10:0 and C delta 9 18:1 are poorer substrates and gave correspondingly lower yields. Acyl-Acp synthetase may be recovered from the reaction mixture using blue-Sepharose CL-6B and recycled. ACP and acyl-ACP are separated by hydrophobic chromatography on octyl-Sepharose CL-4B. Mixtures of acyl-ACPs could be resolved according to acyl chain length using octyl-Sepharose CL-4B columns eluted with a 2-propanol gradient. The high resolution obtained using 2-propanol gradients to separate acyl-ACP species suggests that similar techniques would be applicable to the chromatography of protein mixtures on hydrophobic supports. 相似文献

The luciferin-luciferase bioluminescence method was used to estimate the number of bacteria retained in neutral and amphiphilic gels and those in the eluate to determine the hydrophobic surface properties of bacteria by using hydrophobic interaction chromatography. Good correlations were found between viable counts and ATP content for Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas fragi, and Listeria monocytogenes. ATP determination was more rapid than viable counts for characterizing the relative hydrophobicity of L. monocytogenes. Quantitative estimations of adsorption of L. monocytogenes on octyl-Sepharose indicate that this microorganism is hydrophilic. 相似文献

Crude N-deoxyribosyltransferase from Lactobacillus leichmannii was immobilised by hydrophobic interaction on octyl-Sepharose or by covalent attachment to poly(acrylamide-co-N-acryl-oxysuccinimide) (PAN). Little enzyme activity was retained by entrapment in K-carrageenan. N-deoxyribosyltransferase immobilised on PAN was used to prepare 2'-deoxy-2-thiouridine. 相似文献

Every amyloid disease needs to be assessed for chemical composition of its amyloid because amyloid is pathogenetically diverse and each of the chemical amyloid types requires a different therapy. Basically four different approaches are being applied for typing of amyloid using immunohistochemistry, immunochemistry, mass spectrometry and chemistry. It is shown here how an easy immunohistochemical procedure has been developed over the years that can be used to classify specifically amyloid proteins for clinico-pathologic routine use. A larger number of tissues with chemically or immunochemically typed amyloids served as prototypes for developing a set of validated amyloid antibodies. These were examined for their performance to classify a larger number of tissues of patients submitted to us and other institutions allowing independent evaluation. The data reveal that out of 663 patients, including 15 different amyloid types, all 119 prototype Amyloids (100%) have been classified correctly and 97.9% of consecutive 581 unknown amyloid tissues submitted for typing to our laboratory of whom 37 became later prototypes. Twelve samples (2.1%) could not be classified. By using appropriate amyloid antibodies in a comparative manner, this procedure is accurate. It identifies the respective amyloid type and excludes simultaneously other amyloids. Its improved performance leads to an accurate amyloid diagnosis in most cases and provides a diagnostic marker which is independend of any other information for therapeutic considerations. These results can be obtained within a day in institutes competent in performing immunohistochemistry. This is the first report on immunhistochemical typing of amyloid providing detailed illustrations of the original results for training purposes. When the immunohistochemical method presented here was compared with mass spectrometry, a more recent method for amyloid typing, the advantages and failures of both methods became apparent in an international blinded comparison. 相似文献

Incorporation of human liver and placental alkaline phosphatases into liposomes and membranes is via phosphatidylinositol 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
As assessed by incorporation into liposomes and by adsorption to octyl-Sepharose, the integrity of the membrane anchor for the purified tetrameric forms of alkaline phosphatase from human liver and placenta was intact. Any treatment that resulted in a dimeric enzyme precluded incorporation and adsorption. An intact anchor also allowed incorporation into red cell ghosts. The addition of hydrophobic proteins inhibited incorporation into liposomes to varying degrees. Alkaline phosphatase was 100% releasable from liposomes and red cell ghosts by a phospholipase C specific for phosphatidylinositol. There was no appreciable difference in the rates of release of placental and liver alkaline phosphatases, although both were approximately 250 x slower in liposomes and 100 x slower in red cell ghosts than the enzyme's release from a suspension of cultured osteosarcoma cells. Both enzymes were released by phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C as dimers and would not reincorporate or adsorb to octyl-Sepharose. However, the enzyme incorporated, resolubilized by Triton X-100, and cleansed of the detergent by butanol treatment was tetrameric by gradient gel electrophoresis, was hydrophobic, and could reincorporate into fresh liposomes. A monoclonal antibody to liver alkaline phosphatase inhibited the enzyme's incorporation into liposomes, and abolished its release from liposomes and its conversion to dimers by phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C. 相似文献

The association of fibronectin with the microfibrils of connective tissue was examined in the zonular fibers of the mouse eye by immunohistochemical methods at the light and electron microscopic level. Mouse eyes fixed in formaldehyde were embedded either in paraffin for immunostaining by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method or in Lowicryl for immunolabeling by antirabbit globulin antibodies bound to 5 or 15 nm gold particles. Ultrastructural studies were also carried out after glutaraldehyde perfusion. Both the PAP and immunogold procedures demonstrated the association of fibronectin with microfibrils. After immunolabeling with 5 nm gold particles, examination at high magnification localized fibronectin to fine filaments that appeared to be attached to the surface of microfibrils. The filaments extended outward singly or formed loose aggregates. Their diameter ranged from 1.2 to 3 nm, with a mean of 1.5 nm. Because of their similarity to the fibronectin molecules previously described after rotary shadowing, the filaments were likely to be fibronectin molecules themselves. Since fibronectin is known to have high affinity for the amyloid P component, a model is presented in which fibronectin filaments are bound to the amyloid P component making up the tubular core of microfibrils in mice. Evidence is presented that fibronectin filaments may link microfibrils to one another and thus insure the continuity and strength of zonular fibers. More generally, it is likely that connective-tissue microfibrils, whether or not inserted into elastic fibers, are bonded through fibronectin to surrounding cells, collagen fibrils, or proteoglycans, and thus insure cohesion among connective tissue elements. 相似文献

Promotion of formation of amyloid fibrils by aluminium adenosine triphosphate (AlATP) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The formation of amyloid fibrils is considered to be an important step in the aetiology of Alzheimer's disease and other amyloidoses. Fibril formation in vitro has been shown to depend on many different factors including modifications to the amino acid profile of fibrillogenic peptides and interactions with both large and small molecules of physiological significance. How these factors might contribute to amyloid fibril formation in vivo is not clear as very little is known about the promotion of fibril formation in undersaturated solutions of amyloidogenic peptides. We have used thioflavin T fluorescence and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography to show that ATP, and in particular AlATP, promoted the formation of thioflavin T-reactive fibrils of beta amyloid and, an unrelated amyloidogenic peptide, amylin. Evidence is presented that induction of fibril formation followed the complexation of AIATP by one or more monomers of the respective peptide. However, the complex formed could not be identified directly and it is suggested that AlATP might be acting as a chaperone in the assembly of amyloid fibrils. The effect of AlATP was not mimicked by either AlADP or AlAMP. However, it was blocked by suramin, a P2 ATP receptor antagonist, and this has prompted us to speculate that the precursor proteins to beta amyloid and amylin may be substrates or receptors for ATP in vivo. 相似文献

Viruses were characterized by their adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose or by their elution from octyl-Sepharose by using buffered solutions of sodium chloride with different ionic strengths. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced most rapidly by an increase in the sodium chloride concentration were considered to have the weakest electrostatic interactions with the solids; these viruses included MS2, E1, and X174. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced least rapidly were considered to have the strongest electrostatic interactions with the column; these viruses included P1, T4, T2, and E5. All of the viruses studied adsorbed to octyl-Sepharose in the presence of 4 M NaCl. Viruses that were eluted most rapidly following a decrease in the concentration of NaCl were considered to have the weakest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included X174, CB4, and E1. Viruses that were eluted least rapidly from the columns after the NaCl concentration was decreased were considered to have the strongest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included f2, MS2, and E5. 相似文献

Traditional simulation and analysis of amyloid aggregation kinetics has involved the examination of a single lumped parameter taken to reflect the total mass of protein in amyloid form. However use of increasingly sophisticated multi-experimental strategies capable of providing information on the structure of the growing fibril at the mesoscopic and atomistic level, has put extra information within the experimenter's reach. Although such data can be presented empirically, its incorporation into a theoretical model is more problematic due to scaling issues associated with modern day approaches which fall into either the particle based or statistical based categories. Here we present a coarse grained multi-scale simulation of irreversible amyloid formation that straddles this simulation divide by using a set of theory derived size and conformation specific rate constants to simulate the kinetic evolution of the amyloid fibril population. This approach represents a potentially profitable simulation/analytical strategy that will help to probe more deeply into the underlying molecular driving forces behind the phenomenon of amyloid formation. 相似文献
