Three pepsinogens were isolated and purified from the proventriculus of the ostrich Struthio camelus, by a combination of chromatography steps on DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-100 and Hydroxylapatite. The purified pepsinogens manifested peptic activity towards haemoglobin as substrate after activation, but resembled chicken pepsinogens in that they appeared to lose their potential peptic activities during storage. All three pepsinogens contained glycine as N-terminal amino acid, but differed in their overall amino acid compositions. The pH and temperature optima of the activated pepsinogens were determined, as well as their molecular weights.  相似文献

1. Cationic chymotrypsinogen from the pancreas of the ostrich was purified to homogeneity by sulfuric acid extraction of pancrei, (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and SP-Sephadex C-50 and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. 2. The final preparation was homogeneous when subjected to SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing and sedimentation equilibrium centrifugation. The Mmin value obtained from amino acid analysis was 25,572 Da. A mean sedimentation coefficient of 2.575 S was obtained by sedimentation velocity centrifugation. 3. N-terminal analysis by dansylation showed an Ala residue which is the N-terminal of a neochymotrypsinogen. 4. The effects of pH, temperature and inhibitors (LBTI, PMSF, TPCK and DFP) on the chymotryptic activity were examined. A Km-value for ATEE as substrate was found to be 0.57 mM.  相似文献

Three extremely acidic proteins were isolated from human brain and purified to apparent homogeneity. One of them, Glu-50 protein, contained much glutamic acid (about 50% of the total amino acids). Its purification involved ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and G-75. Its molecular weight was determined to be 11,000 by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 34,000-36,000 by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75, suggesting that it consists of three identical polypeptide chains. Its isoelectric point was pH 3.9. Its N-terminal amino acid sequence was NH2-Asp-Glu-Pro-Pro-Asp-Glu and its C-terminal amino acid was Lys. It contained no detectable carbohydrate.  相似文献

We previously demonstrated that extremely high amounts of N-terminal big gastrin (G-34) fragments are excreted in human urine and three of them are N-terminal octa-, nona-, and decapeptide of G-34. Our subsequent examination revealed that there exists a considerable amount of another N-terminal G-34 fragment in urine, less hydrophobic than the three peptides. We purified this fragment from urine of an achlorhydric patient and determined the structure: less than Glu-Leu-Gly-Pro-Gln-Gly. The purification was carried out by Sep-Pak C18 cartridges, Sephadex G-25, and reverse phase HPLC. The structure was determined by a combination of amino acid analysis, amino acid sequence analysis, and mass spectral analysis. N-terminal hexapeptide of G-34 is the second richest component of urinary N-terminal G-34 fragments next to N-terminal octapeptide of G-34 in normal subjects.  相似文献

Three colipases were purified from pancreas of two birds (ostrich and turkey) and one mammal (dromedary). After acidic and/or heat treatment and precipitation by sulfate ammonium and then ethanol, cofactors were purified by Sephadex G-50 gel filtration followed by ion-exchange chromatography first on Mono S and then on Mono Q. One molecular form was obtained from each species with a molecular mass of approximately 10 kDa. Cofactors were not glycosylated. The N-terminal sequences of the three purified cofactors showed high sequence homology. A 90 amino acid sequence of the ostrich cofactor was established based on peptide sequences from four different digests of the denaturated protein using trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or staphylococcal protease. This sequence exhibited a high degree of homology with chicken and mammal cofactors. Bile salt-inhibited pancreatic lipases from five species were activated to variable extents by colipases from bird and mammal origins. The bird pancreatic lipase-colipase system appears to be functionally similar to homologous lipolytic systems from higher mammals. Our comparative study showed that mammal colipase presents a lower activation level toward bird lipases than the bird counterpart. Three-dimensional modeling of ostrich colipase suggested a structural explanation of this fact.  相似文献

Urinary trypsin inhibitors (UTIs) from the urine of a patient with acute pancreatitis consisted of three forms with different molecular weights. These were highly purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, Sephadex G-75, SP-Sephadex C-25 and trypsin-Sepharose 4B column chromatography. The lowest molecular weight of UTIs was estimated to be 6,200 daltons. Moreover, five residues of N-terminal amino acids and a C-terminal amino acid were the same as those of pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor.  相似文献

1. Avian corticotropin (ACTH) was purified from both fresh and aged pituitary glands of the ostrich Struthio camelus. 2. The isolation of corticotropin in pure form involved acid/acetone extraction, NaCl fractionation, CM-cellulose chromatography and Sephadex G-50 chromatography. 3. The hormone preparations from fresh and aged glands behaved as single substances on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, and both preparations were found to consist of 39 amino acid residues, in identical molar proportions for the different amino acids. 4. The isoelectric points of the two hormone preparations were estimated to be in the range pH 8.3-8.7, indicating possible differences in amide content, and the N-terminal amino acid of both preparations appeared to be serine. 5. The hormone preparations from fresh and aged glands exhibited similar biological potencies (73 and 77 i.u./mg respectively), as measured by steroidogenesis in vitro. 6. Apart from possible differences in amide content, the corticotropin preparations obtained from fresh and aged glands appear to be indistinguishable.  相似文献

Acetyl-CoA:arylamine N-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.5) from pigeon liver was purified by protamine sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-A-25 Sephadex, gel filtration on Sephadex G-75, amethopterin-AH-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography, and finally, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The enzyme preparation was homogeneous as judged by ultracentrifugation studies, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration. The N-terminal amino acid was detected to be histidine and the complete amino acid composition is reported. The enzyme contains one disulfide bridge and two cysteine residues/mol monomer. The isoelectric point was estimated to be 4.8. The molecular weight was determined to be 32900 by high-speed sedimentation equilibrium analysis, 33000 by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and 31600 by SDS-disc gel electrophoresis. The sedimentation coefficient from conventional sedimentation velocity runs was 3.1 S observed by ultraviolet optics. 'Active enzyme centrifugation' showed a sedimentation constant of 5.0 and 4.8 S for the purified enzyme and crude extract from pigeon liver, respectively, indicating that the enzyme forms a dimer under conditions of catalysis. It could be demonstrated that the inhibitor amethopterin was noncompetitive with respect to the acetyl donor and the acetyl acceptor. Acetyl-CoA:arylamine N-acetyltransferase was examined in different organs of pigeon. The enzyme was not inducible by 1,3-phenylenediamine and hexobarbital in vivo.  相似文献

Two proteinase containing carbohydrate, called calotropain-FI and calotropain-FII, were purified from Calotropis gigantea latex by CM-Sephadex C-50 chromatography. Both calotropain-FI and FII were found to be homogeneous by rechromatography on CM-Sephadex C-50, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel and by N-terminal amino acid analysis. Some properties of these enzymes are reported.  相似文献

A method was developed for the isolation of staphylococcal enterotoxin D in highly purified form from cultures of Staphylococcus aureus strain 1151m. The method involves removal of the toxin from the culture supernatant fluid with the ion-exchange resin CG-50 followed by chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose (twice) and by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 (twice). The purified toxin is homogeneous by polyacrylamide gel and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and double gel diffusion tests. It is a simple, colorless, antigenic protein with an isoelectric point of 7.4 as determined by isoelectric focusing. Its molecular weight was determined to be 27 300 +/- 700 by molecular sieve chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Its serological activity is stable over a wide range of pH values (1.2--10.7). The enterotoxin consists of 236 amino acid residues and contains no free sulfhydryl groups. End-group analysis showed serine to be the NH2-terminal amino acid and lysine to be the COOH-terminal amino acid.  相似文献

Fish surface mucin from Pampus argenteus was extracted with different organic solvents and the residue passed through Sephadex G-200. The major peak was purified by DEAE-Cellulose chromatography and five fractions were obtained. Carbohydrate and protein contents showed that major peak is a glycoprotein. Rechromatography of this component on the Sephadex G-200 column gave a single peak, with an estimated minimal molecular weight of 6.9 X 10(5). Analysis of individual sugar components revealed the presence of galactose, glucose, mannose, arabinose, N-acetyl glucosamine, N-acetyl galactosamine and sialic acid. The most represented amino acids are threonine, serine, proline, glutamic acid and glycine. The N-terminal amino acid end was blocked. Nearly 47% of sulphate was acid labile. Sialic acid and fucose were released rapidly by mild acid hydrolysis. The presence of blood group-A activity suggests that some kind of terminal alpha-Gal-NAC may be present.  相似文献

The extracellular alpha-amylase activity of the yeast Schwanniomyces alluvius has been purified by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel-filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-100. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and N-terminal amino acid analysis of the purified sample indicated that the enzyme preparation was homogeneous. The enzyme is a glycoprotein having a molecular mass of 52 kilodaltons (kDa) estimated by SDS-PAGE and 39 kDa by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. Chromatofocusing shows that it is an acidic protein. It is resistant to trypsin but sensitive to proteinase K. Its activity is inhibited by the divalent cation chelators EDTA and EGTA and it is insensitive to sulfhydryl-blocking agents. Exogenous divalent cations are inhibitory as are high concentrations of monovalent salts. The enzyme has a pH optimum between 3.75 and 5.5 and displays maximum stability in the pH range of 4.0-7.0. Under the conditions tested, the activity is maximal between 45 and 50 degrees C and is very thermolabile. Analysis of its amino acid composition supports its acidic nature.  相似文献

Preliminary observations [Sykes & Lowry (1980) J. Endocrinol. 85, 42P-43P] had suggested that the major hypothalamic somatoliberin (growth-hormone-releasing factor) was a larger peptide than the other characterized hypothalamic factors, with an elution position on Sephadex G-50 between those of neurophysin and corticotropin. The present paper reports the isolation and preliminary characterization of pig hypothalamic somatoliberin. Acid extracts of pig stalk median eminence were purified by gel filtration and preparative and analytical high-pressure liquid chromatography to yield a preparation that was specific in the release of somatotropin (growth hormone) in vitro, giving a steep dose--response curve at doses in the range 0.20-3.0 ng. Amino acid analysis revealed a non-cysteine-containing peptide with a high number of glutamate (or glutamine) and aspartate (or asparagine) residues. The peptide had about 56-57 amino acid residues and an apparent molecular weight of 6400, in keeping with its elution position on a column of Sephadex G-50.  相似文献

Three cellulase components (FP-ase, CMC-ase and cellobiase) were purified by affinity binding on Avicel followed by Sephadex G-25, DEAE-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-100 chromatography from the culture filtrate of the newly isolated strain Penicillium camemberti. The isolated enzymes had the properties of cellobiohydrolase, endo-1,4-beta-D-glucanase and cellobiase and their respective molar masses were 99, 87 and 61 kDa as determined by molecular sieve chromatography on Sephadex G-100. The amino acid composition of each fraction was also determined.  相似文献

Gel-filtration analysis of cytosol fraction obtained from unfertilized sea-urchin (Anthocidaris crassispina) eggs on Sephadex G-75 revealed the presence of two Zn-binding-protein fractions. The major Zn-binding protein fraction had a low molecular weight and a low absorbance at 280 nm, properties similar to those of the metallothionein found in the regenerating rat liver. These fractions were further purified by DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-50 chromatography. Homogeneity of the Zn-binding protein was judged by polyacrylamide-disc-gel electrophoresis and gel-permeation chromatography in the presence of 6 M-guanidinium chloride. The molecular weight determined by gel-permeation chromatography was 3900. This value is in good agreement with the minimum molecular weight calculated from the amino acid composition, which was 3655. Zn-binding protein is composed of 36 amino acid residues and the distinctive features include an extremely high content of cysteine, which accounted for one-third of the total amino acid residues, and a complete absence of aromatic amino acids, as well as of methionine, histidine and arginine. Zn-binding protein contained 4.1 g-atoms of zinc per mol and a trace of cadmium, but no copper, iron or calcium. The molar ratio of reactive thiol groups to metal ion was calculated to be 2.73:1. Possible roles of this Zn-binding protein in the homoeostasis of zinc in unfertilized sea-urchin eggs are discussed.  相似文献

Low-molecular-mass zymogen was extracted from boar spermatozoa together with proacrosin using 10% acetic acid supplemented with 10% glycerol, and was purified by the sequential use of gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 and (FPLC) reversed-phase chromatography. LMM zymogen represented approximately 5% of the latent trypsin-like activity present in the sperm extract. SDS-PAGE indicated a molecular mass of 33 kDa. The zymogen reacted with both mouse monoclonal and rabbit polyclonal antibodies to boar acrosin. Determination of the N-terminal sequence of 34 amino-acid residues revealed its identity with the known N-terminal sequence of boar proacrosin.  相似文献

Ostrich carboxypeptidases A and B were recently purified and characterized. The aim of this study was to isolate and purify, and partially characterize in terms of molecular weight, pI, amino acid composition and N-terminal sequencing, the precursor forms of carboxypeptidases from the ostrich pancreas. Inhibition studies with soybean trypsin inhibitor and activation studies with three proteases (bovine trypsin, bovine chymotrypsin and porcine elastase) were performed on crude ostrich acetone powder and the carboxypeptidase A and B activities were determined. SDS-PAGE was carried out after every incubation to monitor the rate and degree of conversion of a M(r) 66K component to procarboxypeptidase and carboxypeptidase A and B. The precursor forms were purified by Toyopearl Super Q and Pharmacia Mono Q chromatography. All three proteases converted the M(r) 66K component to procarboxypeptidases and carboxypeptidases over a set time interval, with carboxypeptidase A and B activities being detected in the acetone powder. Chymotrypsin was the preferred protease since it exhibited a more controlled activation of the procarboxypeptidases. The amino acid composition of procarboxypeptidase A revealed 525 residues. The N-terminal sequence of procarboxypeptidase A showed considerable homology when compared with several other mammalian sequences. M(r) and pI values of 52K and 5.23 were obtained for procarboxypeptidase A, respectively. This study indicated that ostrich procarboxypeptidase A is closely related to other mammalian procarboxypeptidase A molecules in terms of physicochemical properties.  相似文献

Human plasma glutathione peroxidase (GPx) was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration on Sephadex G-150, chromatography on DEAE Sephacel, chromatofocusing with polybuffer, and gel filtration with Sephadex G-75. This isolation resulted in about 5,400-fold purification of the enzyme with a 32% yield in enzyme activity. The final preparation had a specific activity of about 28 units (mmoles NADPH oxidized) per milligram of protein. Determination of selenium on the purified enzyme revealed a content of 3.8 g atoms per mole GPx. Gel electrophoresis using SDS with standard proteins revealed a molecular weight of about 23,000 for the subunits, which would indicate a molecular weight of about 92,000 for the native enzyme. Amino acid analyses of the purified GPx indicated aspartate, glutamate, proline, glycine, alanine, and leucine as the predominant amino acids and cysteine, methionine, tryptophan, and histidine as the minor amino acids.  相似文献

1. Avian beta-endorphin was purified from adenohypophyseal glands of the ostrich Struthio camelus by a procedure involving acid/acetone extraction, NaCl fractionation, CM-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex G-50 chromatography and paper electrophoresis (pH 6.7). 2. The 31-amino acid peptide behaved as a single substance during polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing, the isoelectric point being 8.84. 3. Ostrich beta-endorphin exhibited significant opiate activity in the guinea-pig ileum preparation.  相似文献
