The acidic oligosaccharide alditols released from bovine submaxillary-gland mucin by Carlson degradation were investigated by a combination of liquid secondary-ion mass spectrometry, methylation analysis and 1H-NMR. Among the largest structures identified were four branched hexasaccharides, three of them novel, comprising two separate pairs of structures. One pair contained the sequence Fuc(alpha 1-2)Gal(beta 1-4)[Fuc(alpha 1-3)]GlcNAc(beta 1-) (Fuc, L-fucose), at C3 of N-acetylgalactosaminitol and differed only by substitution at C6 by N-acetylneuraminic or N-glycolylneuraminic acid. The other pair also differed in substitution of the sialic acid linked at C6 and contained the GalNAc-(alpha 1-3)[Fuc(alpha 1-2)]Gal(beta 1-4)GlcNAc(beta 1-), sequence at C3 of N-acetylgalactosaminitol. The Lewis(y) and blood-group-A determinants of these sequences have not been found previously in the acidic oligosaccharides of bovine submaxillary-gland mucin, although they have recently been characterised in the neutral chains of bovine submaxillary-gland mucin. 相似文献

Acetylcholine (1 micromol/L--1 mmol/L) has been reported to stimulate growth hormone release from perifused bovine pituitary slices. We have carried out studies using the perifused pars distalis of the rat adenohypophysis to see whether a similar response is observed. Neither acetylcholine, acetylcholine with eserine, nor carbamylcholine, at concentrations of 10(-9), 10(-6), and 10(-3) M. stimulated the release of growth hormone. Thus we could not demonstrate a similar reponse to acetylcholine in the pars distalis of the rat adenohypophysis as reported in the bovine gland. 相似文献

Twenty-two neutral O-linked oligosaccharides ranging from monosaccharides to octasaccharides were identified in bovine submaxillary-gland-mucin glycoprotein by a combination of liquid secondary-ion mass spectrometry, methylation analysis and 1H-NMR. Only five of these have been previously detected in bovine submaxillary-gland mucin although several have been described from other sources of mucin. The structures include short linear sequences 3-linked to N-acetylgalactosaminitol (GalNAcol) and branched structures based on either a GlcNAc(beta 1-6) [Gal(beta 1-3)]GalNAcol or GlcNAc(beta 1-6)[GlcNAc(beta 1-3)]GalNAcol core region. Oligosaccharides not previously characterised from any source were the disaccharide GalNAc alpha 1-6GalNAcol (GalNAc, N-acetylgalactosamine and the hexasaccharide GlcNAc(beta 1-6) [GalNAc(alpha 1-3)( Fuc (alpha 1-2)]Gal(beta 1-4)GlcNAc(beta 1-3)]GalNAcol (Fuc, L-fucose). Oligosaccharides of the blood-group-A type have not been detected previously in bovine submaxillary-gland mucin although their occurrence on bovine gastric-mucosal glycoproteins has been established by classical immunochemical studies. 相似文献

Charge transfer from tyrosine to tryptophan radicals in bovine milk casein, as observed using pulse radiolysis technique, is reported. The reactions of casein with hydroxyl, azide, Br(2)(*-) and CCl(3)O(2)(*) radicals have also been studied. Radical transformation was found to take place at a rate of 1.5 x10(4) s(-1). The effect of pH, oxidising radical and the proximity of tyrosine and tryptophan on this radical transformation, as well as repair of the casein radical by ascorbate, have also been studied. 相似文献

Measurements of oxygen binding to bovine hemoglobin have been carried out over the temperature range 15-37 degrees C at pH 7.33. The standard enthalpy of oxygenation after correction for the heat of oxygen solution and of the Bohr protons is found to be -7.1 or -7.2 kcal/mol in the presence of 0.1 M chloride or bromide, respectively. This value is well below the -14.4 kcal/mol determined for human hemoglobin under identical experimental conditions. As reported by Fronticelli et al. (C. Fronticelli, E. Bucci and A. Razynska, J. Mol. Biol. 202 (1988) 343), the preferential binding of anions by bovine hemoglobin recognizes the various halides. Measurements at various temperatures reveal that this is true only above 25 degrees C. The halide recognition and the less exothermic enthalpy of oxygenation of bovine hemoglobin are probable due to oxygen-linked hydrophobic effects that are larger in bovine than in human hemoglobin. 相似文献

Human liver cDNA clones encoding proteolipid subunit 9 of the mitochondrial ATPase complex 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Clones encoding the proteolipid subunit 9 of the mitochondrial ATPase complex have been isolated from a lambda gt10 library of human liver cDNA sequences, using a probe of Neurospora crassa cDNA encoding subunit 9. From nucleotide sequence analysis it is concluded that the amino acid sequence of mature human subunit 9 is identical to that of its bovine counterpart. By comparing the sequence of two cDNA clones (denoted human 1 and 2) to those of two bovine cDNA clones (denoted P1 and P2) recently described by Gay and Walker (EMBO J. 4, 3519-3524, 1985) it is evident that there are close sequence relationships between human 1 and bovine P1, and between human 2 and bovine P2, although both human clones are truncated at their 5'-ends. Thus, as in bovine cells there appears to be at least two human genes encoding subunit 9. 相似文献

It has been proposed that mammalian sperm bind species-specifically to carbohydrate chains of zona pellucida glycoproteins at fertilization. Although the sperm ligand carbohydrate chains have been characterized in mice and pigs, the existence of the ligands of other mammals remains unclear. In order to explore the bovine sperm ligand, two in vitro competition assay methods were applied. As a result, a high-mannose-type carbohydrate chain, Manalpha1-6(Manalpha1-3)Manalpha1-6(Manalpha1-3)Manbeta1-4GlcNAcbeta1-4GlcNAc, which is the major neutral chain in bovine egg zona glycoproteins, was shown to possess bovine sperm ligand activity. When nonreducing terminal alpha-mannosyl residues were eliminated from the zona glycoproteins by alpha-mannosidase digestion, the ligand activity was reduced, indicating that the alpha-mannosyl residues play an essential role in bovine sperm-egg binding. The number of sperm binding to eggs was reduced to about one-half after fertilization. The ligand-active high-mannose-type chain may be buried after fertilization, since its amount remains unchanged. Pretreatment of bovine sperm with the sperm ligand-carbohydrate chain significantly inhibited penetration of the sperm into oocyte and the male pronucleus formation. Thus, a correlation between the sperm ligand activity and in vitro fertilization rate was observed. 相似文献

Human plasma inter-alpha-inhibitor forms 1:1 inactive complexes with human and bovine trypsins (EC 3.4.21.4) and chymotrypsins (EC 3.4.21.1). The association and dissociation rate constants as well as the equilibrium dissociation constants (Ki) of the complexes formed of inter-alpha-inhibitor and the four proteases have been measured. The most stable complexes are those formed with the bovine enzymes. For instance, Ki = 2.1-10-11 M for bovine trypsin whereas Ki = 1.2 - 10-8 M for human trypsin. Whatever the species, the complexes formed with the chymotrypsins are less stable than those formed with the trypsins. 相似文献

Bovine skeletal muscle contains small amounts of at least six heat- and acid-stable RNA-degrading enzymes. Our results are the first evidence for multiple ribonucleases in skeletal muscle. Three of these have been highly purified, and each has been shown to be a pyrimidine-specific endoribonuclease by use of a rapid sequencing technique employing gel electrophoresis. However, synthetic co-polymers containing adenylate or guanylate residues in addition to pyrimidine residues are hydrolysed at higher rates than are the pyrimidine homopolymers. With 0.63 mM yeast RNA as substrate, all three enzymes (ribonucleases I, II and III) are optimally active in alkaline solution (pH 7.5-8.5) containing 0.05-0.15 M univalent salts, do not require bivalent cations, and have molecular weights of 13 000-20 000. The properties of muscle ribonuclease I are very similar to those of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A. Muscle ribonucleases II and III have characteristics similar to those of ribonucleases found in various other bovine tissues. In common with all previously studied pyrimidine-specific endoribonucleases, the bovine muscle ribonucleases are inhibited by such purine homopolynucleotides as polyadenylate. Furthermore, polyamines, present in low concentrations, can reverse or regulate the amount of inhibition of enzyme activity. 相似文献

Binding of the bovine basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (Kunitz) to human alpha-, beta- and gamma-thrombin; a kinetic and thermodynamic study 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for the binding of the bovine basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI, Kunitz inhibitor) to human alpha-, beta- and gamma-thrombin have been determined, between 5 and 45 degrees C, at pH 7.5. BPTI-binding properties to human thrombins have been analyzed in parallel with those of serine (pro)enzymes acting on cationic and non-cationic substrates, with particular reference to the bovine beta-trypsin/BPTI system. The observed binding behaviour of BPTI to human alpha-, beta- and gamma-thrombin has been related to the inferred stereochemistry of the enzyme/inhibitor contact region(s). 相似文献

The crystal structures of two homologous inhibitors (PMP-C and PMP-D2v) from the insect Locusta migratoria have been determined in complex with bovine alpha-chymotrypsin at 2.1- and 3.0-A resolution, respectively. PMP-C is a potent bovine alpha-chymotrypsin inhibitor whereas native PMP-D2 is a weak inhibitor of bovine trypsin. One unique mutation at the P1 position converts PMP-D2 into a potent bovine alpha-chymotrypsin inhibitor. The two peptides have a similar overall conformation, which consists of a triple-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet connected by three disulfide bridges, thus defining a novel family of serine protease inhibitors. They have in common the protease interaction site, which is composed of the classical protease binding loop (position P5 to P'4, corresponding to residues 26-34) and of an internal segment (residues 15-18), held together by two disulfide bridges. Structural divergences between the two inhibitors result in an additional interaction site between PMP-D2v (position P10 to P6, residues 21-25) and the residues 172-175 of alpha-chymotrypsin. This unusual interaction may be responsible for species selectivity. A careful comparison of data on bound and free inhibitors (from this study and previous NMR studies, respectively) suggests that complexation to the protease stabilizes the flexible binding loop (from P5 to P'4). 相似文献

Vasopressin, MSEL-neurophysin and a glycopeptide, here referred to as copeptin, are three fragments of a common protein precursor processed during axonal transport from hypothalamus to neurohypophysis. Neurohormones and neurophysins purified from 7-9-month-old bovine foetuses have previously been shown to be identical with those found in the adult. Copeptin has now been isolated from 7-9-month and 3-month-old bovine foetuses and chemically characterized. It can be concluded from the nature of the three precursors that the same vasopressin gene is expressed in the adult and the 7-9-month-old foetus. 相似文献

The stereochemistry of the bovine plasma amine oxidase catalyzed oxidation of 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-ethylamine (domapine) has been investigated by comparing 3H/14C ratios of 3,4-dibenzyloxyphenethyl alcohols, derived from 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehydes, to starting dopamines chirally labeled at C-1 and C-2. The oxidation of [2RS-3H]-, [2R-3H]-, and [2S-3H]dopamine leads to products which have retained 53, 59, and 47% of their tritium. Similarly, oxidation of [1RS-3H]-, [1R-3H]-, and [1S-3H]dopamine leads to an 80, 80, and 92% retention of tritium. The configurational purity of tritium at C-2 of dopamine and C-1 of the dopamine precursor 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenethylamine has been confirmed employing dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (specific for the pro-R hydrogen at C-2) and pea seedling amine oxidase (specific for the pro-S hydrogen at C-1). In addition, chromatographically resolved isozymes of bovine plasma amine oxidase have been demonstrated to lead to the same stereochemical result as pooled enzyme fractions. We have been able to rule out carbon interchange and tritium transfer in the ethylamine side chain of dopamine as the source of the apparent nonstereospecificity. Estimated primary tritium isotope effects are 1 for [2-3H]dopamines and 5--6 and 26--34 for [1R-3H]- and [1S-3H]dopamine, respectively. We propose the presence of alternate dopamine binding modes, characterized by absolute but opposing stereochemistries and differential primary tritium isotope effects at C-1. 相似文献

Recently, metabolic enzymes have been observed in both the lens and corneal epithelium at levels greatly exceeding what is necessary for normal metabolic functions. These proteins have been termed taxon-specific crystallins and are thought to play a role in maintaining tissue transparency. We report here that cytosolic NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) represents a new corneal crystallin. Using suppression subtractive hybridization, we identified a gene (with a deduced amino acid sequence that showed 94% identity to rat cytosolic NADP+-dependent ICDH) that is preferentially expressed in bovine corneal epithelium. Northern blots established that its mRNA level in the corneal epithelium was 31-, 39-, 133-, 230-, and 929-fold more than in the liver, bladder epithelium, stomach epithelium, brain, and heart, respectively. This mRNA was detected primarily in corneal epithelial basal cells by in situ hybridization. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, two-dimensional gel analysis, and Western blotting showed that this protein was overexpressed in the corneal epithelium, constituting approximately 13% of the total soluble bovine corneal epithelial proteins. Enzyme assays showed a corresponding overabundance of this protein in bovine corneal epithelium. Taken together, these data indicate that bovine cytosolic ICDH fulfills the criteria for a corneal epithelial crystallin and may be involved in maintaining corneal epithelial transparency. 相似文献

The interaction of bovine serum albumin and rat alpha1-fetoprotein with aflatoxin B1 has been followed by the fluorescence quenching of the protein in presence of the ligand. The binding parameters (n, number of sites and Kd, dissociation constant) have been determined for the bovine serum albumin-alflatoxin B1 system: n = 3.5 and Kd = 3.1 +/- 0.5 . 10(-5) M and for the alpha-fetoprotein-aflatoxin system: n = 4 and Kd = 3.7 +/-0.5 . 10(-5) M. The competition of anilino-naphthalene-sulfonate and aflatoxin B1 for the same hydrophobic sites on bovine serum albumin has been demonstrated. The fluorescence quenching of various proteins (lysozymes, egg-albumin, gamma-globulin) by aflatoxin B1 have shown that there is not a strict specificity of aflatoxin towards proteins. 相似文献

The S-peptide of the enzyme bovine pancreatic ribonuclease has been used as a model for covalent semisynthesis. Methods for side-chain protection, enzymatic cleavage of the peptide chain at the level of the single arginine-10 and for selective deprotection of the alpha-carboxyl function of this residue, have been examined. The partially protected [1-10] sequence has been coupled to a solid-phase generated [11-15] sequence attached to the polymer. After deblocking from the solid-support, the [1-15] semisynthetic peptide was complexed with native S-protein to give a complex with high biological activity. 相似文献

3,6-Anhydro-1-(aryl or alkylamino)-1-deoxy-d-sorbitol derivatives have been prepared in four steps from isosorbide, a by-product from the starch industry. The inhibitory activities of these new compounds have been evaluated towards 13 glycosidases. A first lead-compound was identified, which inhibited β-N-acetylglucosaminidase from bovine kidney (82% inhibition at 1 mM). 相似文献
