Magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNTs) with necklace-like nanostructures was prepared via hydrothermal method, and hyperbranched
poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) was grafted on the surface of MCNTs on the basis of the Michael addition of methyl acrylate and the
amidation of the resulting ester with a large excess of ethylenediamine (EDA), which could achieve generational growth under
such uniform stepwise reactions. The terminal –NH2 groups from the dendritic PAMAM were reacted with differently functionalized groups to form functionalized MCNTs. Subsequently,
enzyme was immobilized on the functionalized MCNTs through adsorption, covalent bond, and metal-ion affinity interactions.
The immobilization of glucoamylase, hereby chosen as model enzyme, onto the differently functionalized MCNTs is further demonstrated
and assessed based on its activity, thermal stability, as well as reusability. Besides ease in recovery by magnetic separation,
the immobilized glucoamylase on functionalized MCNTs offers superior stability and reusability, without compromising the substrate
specificity of free glucoamylase. Furthermore, the results indicate that the metal-chelate dendrimer offers an efficient route
to immobilize enzymes via metal-ion affinity interactions. The applicability of the regenerated supports in the current study
is relevant for the conjugation of other enzymes beyond glucoamylase. 相似文献

Isolation and primary structures of seven serine proteinase inhibitors from Cyclanthera pedata seeds
Seven new trypsin inhibitors, CyPTI I-VII, were purified from ripe seeds of Cyclanthera pedata by affinity chromatography on immobilized chymotrypsin in the presence of 5 M NaCl followed by preparative native PAGE at pH 8.9. The CyPTIs (Cyclanthera pedata trypsin inhibitors) belong to a well-known squash inhibitor family. They contain 28-30 amino acids and have molecular weights from 3031 to 3367 Da. All the isolated inhibitors strongly inhibit bovine beta-trypsin (K(a)>10(11) M(-1)) and, more weakly, bovine alpha-chymotrypsin (K(a) approximately 10(4)-10(6) M(-1)). In the presence of 3 M NaCl the association constants of CyPTIs with alpha-chymotrypsin increased a few hundred fold. Taking advantage of this phenomenon, a high concentration of NaCl was used to isolate the inhibitors by affinity chromatography on immobilized chymotrypsin. It was found that although one of them, CyPTI IV, had split the Asn25-Gly26 peptide bond, its inhibitory activity remained unchanged. The hydrolyzed bond is located downstream of the reactive site. Presumably, the inhibitor is a naturally occurring, double-chain protein arising during posttranslational modifications. 相似文献

The coleopteran firefly, Photinus pyralis, luciferase was produced in lepidopteran Trichoplusia ni insect cells using a baculovirus expression vector. The recombinant protein was equipped with a polyhistidine affinity tag at the carboxyl terminus and purified by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography in combination with an expanded bed adsorption system. This approach enabled an efficient, one-step purification protocol of a genetically modified luciferase with properties similar to those of the authentic counterpart. According to light emission measurements, the final yield of highly purified protein was 23 mg l(-1) of cell culture. In addition, no specific interaction of interfering substances, such as, ATP, adenylate kinase, nucleoside diphosphokinase, as well as, creatine kinase of the final preparation were identified. Together, the results presented here clearly show that the baculovirus expression system in combination with immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography is a potential strategy for process scale-up of polyhistidine tagged insect luciferase. 相似文献

Surface topography of histidine residues in lysozymes. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several avian and mammalian c-type lysozymes were chromatographed on chelated (to iminodiacetate) and immobilized transition metal ions (Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+) under a variety of experimental conditions. The varied affinity of evolutionary variants of the lysozyme family for chelated metal ions, IDA-M(II), can be rationalized primarily in terms of the presence, multiplicity and microenvironments of histidine residues. The chromatographic resolution of some of these closely related proteins attests to the analytical power of immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. 相似文献

Chymotrypsin preparations are contaminated by autolysis products and other post-translational products derived from the zymogen. Some prevalent contaminants are difficult to detect with activity assays and molecular weight separation. However, our differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies of alpha-chymotrypsin have revealed that gamma-chymotrypsin is a common contaminant in commercial preparations, and the alpha- and gamma-species differ significantly in thermal stability. Thus, DSC analysis provides a sensitive and rapid means to assess the homogeneity of preparations. Moreover, free metal ion binding studies conducted indicate that the alpha- and gamma-species differ substantially in the number of metal binding sites and metal affinity. Therefore, to attempt to repurify a commercial preparation of alpha-chymotrypsin, a resolubilized sample of alpha-chymotrypsin was subjected to immobilized metal (Cu+2) affinity chromatography with pH elution and the fractions were subjected to DSC analysis. The process successfully removed the majority of the contaminating gamma-chymotrypsin. 相似文献

Ribonuclease A (EC 3.1.4.22) and alpha-chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1) have been covalently coupled, by a varying number of bonds, to Sepharose CL 4B which was activated with different amounts of CNBr. Upon increasing the number (1-8) of points of attachment between the enzyme and the matrix, the specific activities of immobilized ribonuclease A relative to its soluble counterpart decreased from 60 to 15% while the amount of protein coupled increased from 5 to 37 mg per g of sucked gel. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to determine whether the immobilization caused any changes in the physicochemical properties of the enzyme. Ribonuclease A, weakly bound to the matrix, showed almost the same behavior as the soluble enzyme. By contrast strongly immobilized enzyme exhibited a higher transition temperature (by about 5 degrees C) and a broader endotherm. Similar results were found for alpha-chymotrypsin. 相似文献

The blood cells of ascidians accumulate extremely high levels of the transition metal vanadium. We previously isolated four vanadium-binding proteins (Vanabins 1-4) and a homologous protein (VanabinP) from the vanadium-rich ascidian Ascidia sydneiensis samea. In the present study, we identified cDNAs encoding five different Vanabin2-related proteins in A. sydneiensis samea blood cells. It was notable that the sequences of the encoded proteins vary from that of Vanabin2 at up to 14 specific positions, while both the polypeptide length and the 18 cysteine residues were completely conserved. The most divergent protein, named 14MT, differed from Vanabin2 at all 14 positions. Using immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography, we found that Vanabin2 and 14MT have the same metal-ion selectivity, but the overall affinity of 14MT for VO(2+) is higher than that of Vanabin2. Binding number for VO(2+) ions was the same between Vanabin2 and 14MT as assessed by gel filtration. These results suggested that sequence variations were under strict evolutionary constraints and high-affinity binding sites for VO(2+) are conserved among Vanabin2 variants. 相似文献

A novel thermostable chimeric beta-galactosidase was constructed by fusing a poly-His tag to the N-terminal region of the beta-galactosidase from Thermus sp. strain T2 to facilitate its overexpression in Escherichia coli and its purification by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). The poly-His tag fusion did not affect the activation, kinetic parameters, and stability of the beta-galactosidase. Copper-iminodiacetic acid (Cu-IDA) supports enabled the most rapid adsorption of the His-tagged enzyme, favoring multisubunit interactions, but caused deleterious effects on the enzyme stability. To improve the enzyme purification a selective one-point adsorption was achieved by designing tailor-made low-activated Co-IDA or Ni-IDA supports. The new enzyme was not only useful for industrial purposes but also has become an excellent model to study the purification of large multimeric proteins via selective adsorption on tailor-made IMAC supports. 相似文献

Identification of regions of alpha-thrombin involved in its interaction with hirudin 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The contributions of various regions of human alpha-thrombin to the formation of the tight complex with hirudin have been assessed by using derivatives of thrombin. alpha-Thrombin in which the active-site serine was modified with diisopropyl fluorophosphate was able to bind hirudin, but its affinity for hirudin was decreased by 10(3)-fold compared to unmodified alpha-thrombin. Modification of the active-site histidine with D-Phe-Pro-Arg-CH2Cl resulted in a form of thrombin with a 10(6)-fold reduced affinity for hirudin. gamma-Thrombin is produced by proteolytic cleavage of alpha-thrombin in two surface loops corresponding to residues 65-83 and 146-150 in alpha-chymotrypsin [Berliner, L. J. (1984) Mol. Cell. Biochem. 61, 159-172; Birktoft, J. J., & Blow, D. M. (1972) J. Mol. Biol. 68, 187-240]. The gamma-thrombin-hirudin complex had a dissociation constant that was 10(6)-fold higher than that of alpha-thrombin. Treatment of alpha-thrombin with pancreatic elastase resulted in a form of thrombin only cleaved in the loop corresponding to residues 146-150 in alpha-chymotrypsin, and this form of thrombin had only a slightly reduced affinity for hirudin. By using limited proteolysis with trypsin, it was possible to isolate beta-thrombin which contained a single cleavage in the loop corresponding to residues 65-83 in alpha-chymotrypsin. This form of thrombin had a 100-fold decrease in affinity for hirudin. Kinetic analysis of the binding of hirudin to beta-thrombin indicated that the 100-fold decrease in affinity was predominantly due to a decrease in the rate of association of the two molecules.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin were immobilized by gelentrapment in polyacrylamide cross-linked with N,N(1)-methylenebisacrylamide. The immobilized enzymes are catalytically efficient in suspensions of reverse micelles formed in isooctane by bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) and water. Both entrapped enzymes are stable in reverse micellar suspension at room temperature and pH 8.2 for 3 days and lose 30-40% activity after 1 week. The enzymes obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics in the investigated concentration range with K(m) values higher than those in solution. Activity of the enzymes is independent of the water content of the micellar solution. No shift in pH optimum was observed for immobilized trypsin activity toward Nalpha-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester. The utility of the procedure, which combines the advantage of enzyme immobilization and enzymology in reverse micelles, is illustrated by an example of peptide synthesis. In particular, peptide synthesis (e. g., Z--Ala--Phe--Leu--NH(2)) using water-insoluble substrate has been performed with gelentrapped alpha-chymotrypsin in reverse micellar suspension with the advantage of efficient enzyme recycling. 相似文献

A self-cleavable sortase fusion for one-step purification of free recombinant proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mao H 《Protein expression and purification》2004,37(1):253-263
A new protein fusion system has been developed to generate free recombinant protein in a single affinity chromatographic step. The key component in the fusion is the catalytic core of sortase A from Staphylococcus aureus (SrtAc), which recognizes and cleaves the Thr-Gly bond at an LPXTG sequence with moderate activity. The fusion here consists of an N-terminal His6 tag, SrtAc, and an LPETG linker followed by protein of interest at the C-terminus. The fusion protein is expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). The immobilized fusion then undergoes on-column SrtAc-mediated cleavage at the LPETG site in the presence of Ca2+ and/or triglycine. The target protein with an extra N-terminal glycine is released from the fusion while the N-terminal portion remains bound to the column. Because the cleavage enzyme SrtAc is co-expressed as a fusion with the target protein, the purification system eliminates exogenous proteolysis. This purification approach is simple, robust, inexpensive, time saving, and allows purification of free recombinant protein via one-step chromatography. 相似文献

The human T-cell receptor Vβ2-, D-and J-encoding domains were PCR-amplified from MOLT-4 total cDNA and subcloned in Escherichia coli. The V/D/J fragment was subsequently transferred to a prokaryotic expression vector in frame with a polyhistidine-encoding prosequence which enabled us to affinity-purify the fusion protein with IMAC (immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatorgraphy). Since the recombinant (re-) human T-cell receptor Vβ2 fusion protein (Vβ2 sol) produced in E. coli was found to be insoluble, purification was carried out under denaturating conditions. The purified and renatured re-protein, Vβ2 sol, was immunoreactive with an anti-Vβ2 monoclonal antibody in an ELISA assay. The specificity of Vβ2 sol was shown by its binding in vitro to the staphylococcal superantigen TSST-1, but not to the Staphylococcus aureus exotoxin-1 (SEA). 相似文献

Protein glycosylation is a common post-translational modification that is involved in many biological processes, including cell adhesion, protein-protein and receptor-ligand interactions. The glycoproteome constitutes a source for identification of disease biomarkers since altered protein glycosylation profiles are associated with certain human ailments. Glycoprotein analysis by mass spectrometry of biological samples, such as blood serum, is hampered by sample complexity and the low concentration of the potentially informative glycopeptides and -proteins. We assessed the utility of lectin-based and HILIC-based affinity enrichment techniques, alone or in combination, for preparation of glycoproteins and glycopeptides for subsequent analysis by MALDI and ESI mass spectrometry. The methods were successfully applied to human serum samples and a total of 86 N-glycosylation sites in 45 proteins were identified using a mixture of three immobilized lectins for consecutive glycoprotein enrichment and glycopeptide enrichment. The combination of lectin affinity enrichment of glycoproteins and subsequent HILIC enrichment of tryptic glycopeptides identified 81 N-glycosylation sites in 44 proteins. A total of 63 glycosylation sites in 38 proteins were identified by both methods, demonstrating distinct differences and complementarity. Serial application of custom-made microcolumns of mixed, immobilized lectins proved efficient for recovery and analysis of glycopeptides from serum samples of breast cancer patients and healthy individuals to assess glycosylation site frequencies. 相似文献

The properties of a derivative of alpha-chymotrypsin in which histidine-57 has been methylated have been examined. Although the modified enzyme binds substrate with the same affinity as does native alpha-chymotrypsin, acylation and deacylation occur at much decreased rates. As for native alpha-chymotrypsin, a basic group of pK(a) approx. 7 is involved in both acylation and deacylation. The significance of these results is considered in relation to the normal function of histidine-57. 相似文献

We evaluated the feasibility of using immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) with nickel ion complexed with Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (TREN) immobilized on agarose gel for purification of human Fab fragments by negative chromatography. Efficient purification of Fab fragments from digested human IgG (immunoglobulin G) (106.4% purity) was accomplished in Tris-HCl buffer at pH 7.5 without NaCl (based on total protein concentration and radial immunodiffusion of human Fab). A technological application of Ni(II)-TREN-agarose using non transgenic soybean protein extract spiked with human Fab fragments as feedstream was also studied. Experiments using Tris-HCl at pH 7.0 as loading buffer allowed the adsorption of almost all of the soybean proteins. Sixty-six percent of the loaded human Fab fragments were recovered in the flowthrough and washing fractions with about 90% purity. These results demonstrate that Ni(II)-TREN-agarose is a potential adsorbent for recombinant Fab fragment purification. 相似文献

Immobilization of alpha-chymotrypsin on magnetic particles with stable coat with titanium oxides as a main constituent allowed the biocatalytic system to be quickly and qualitatively separated into the components after completion of the enzymatic reaction. X-ray phase analysis demonstrated that the coat of magnetic particles is composed mainly of titanium dioxide in brookite modification. The maximal capacity of the particles amounted to 0.3 mg protein/mg particles. It was demonstrated that the reaction catalyzed by immobilized alpha-chymotrypsin proceeds in a kinetic mechanism due to a high dispersion of the ferromagnetic particles. The catalytic constant (25 s-1) and KM (0.17 mM) for the immobilized enzyme for the hydrolysis of N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester are comparable to the corresponding characteristics for the free enzyme. 相似文献

Recombinant expression of a chitosanase and its application in chitosan oligosaccharide production 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Recently, considerable attention has been focused on chitosan oligosaccharides (COSs) due to their various biological activities. COSs can be prepared by enzymatic degradation of chitosan, which is the deacetylation product of chitin, one of the most abundant biopolymers in nature. In the current study, we recombinantly expressed a chitosanase and used it for COS preparation. A bacillus-derived GH8 family chitosanase with a 6×His tag fused at its N-terminal was expressed in the Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3) as a soluble and active form. Its expression level could be as high as 500 mg/L. Enzymatic activity could reach approximately 140,000 U/L under our assay conditions. The recombinant chitosanase could be purified essentially to homogeneity by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. The enzyme could efficiently convert chitosan into monomer-free COS: 1 g of enzyme could hydrolyze about 100 kg of chitosan. Our present work has provided a cheap chitosanase for large-scale COS production in industry. 相似文献

Relative position of the hexahistidine tag effects binding properties of a tumor-associated single-chain Fv construct 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Hexahistidine tag (His-tag) is the most widely used tag for affinity purification of recombinant proteins for their structural and functional analysis. In the present study, single chain Fv (scFv) constructs were engineered form the monoclonal antibody (MAb) CC49 which is among the most extensively studied MAb for cancer therapy. For achieving efficient purification of scFvs by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC), a His-tag was placed either at the C-terminal (scFv-His6) or N-terminal (His6-scFv) of the coding sequence. Solid-phase radioimmunoassay for scFv-His6 showed only 20-25% binding whereas both His6-scFv and scFv (no His-tag) showed 60-65% binding. Surface plasmon resonance studies by BIAcore revealed the binding affinity constant (KA) for His6-scFv and scFv as 1.19 x 10(6) M(-1) and 3.27 x 10(6) M(-1), respectively. No K(A) value could be calculated for scFv-His6 due to poor binding kinetics (kon and koff). Comparative homology modeling for scFv and scFv-His6 showed that the C-terminal position of the His-tag partially covered the antigen-binding site of the protein. The study demonstrates that the C-terminal position of His-tag on the CC49 scFv adversely affects the binding properties of the construct. The results emphasize the importance of functional characterization of recombinant proteins expressed with purification tags. 相似文献

An oleandomycin glycosyltransferase (OleD GT) gene from Streptomyces antibioticus was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) with various molecular chaperones. The purified recombinant OleD GT catalyzed glycosylation of various flavonoids:
apigenin, chrysin, daidzein, genistein, kaempferol, luteolin, 4-methylumbelliferone, naringenin, quercetin and resveratrol
with UDP–glucose. 4.6 μg OleD GT was readily immobilized onto 1 mg hybrid nanoparticles of Fe3O4/silica/NiO on the basis of the affinity between His-tag and NiO nanoparticles with retention of 90% activity. In batch reaction,
more than 90% naringenin (20 μM) was converted to its glycoside in 5 h. The immobilized OleD GT was efficiently reused for
seven times whilst maintaining >60% of the residual activity in repeated glycosylation of naringenin. 相似文献
