A series of esters of adenosine 5'-monophosphate with ethyl, propyl, or hexyl moieties substituted at the omega-position with chlorine or bromine were prepared. The compounds were competitive inhibitors of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase with respect to coenzyme, NAD+, and had inhibition (dissociation) constants in the range of 40 to 260 microM at pH 8.0, 25 degrees C. The bromoalkyl esters were designed to be active-site-directed inactivators and were chemically reactive as tested with the model compound 4-(p-nitrobenzyl)pyridine. Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase was inactivated by the bromohexyl analog by an active-site-directed mechanism, with a Ki = 1.5 mM and a pseudo-bimolecular rate constant of 0.03 M-1 S-1, which is 150 times larger than the bimolecular rate constant for inactivation by 2-bromoethanol. However, the rates of inactivation of other dehydrogenases treated with 10 mM concentrations of these compounds were generally slower than with the simpler reagent, 2-bromoethanol. Thus, the reactive functional group attached to the AMP moiety may not be properly oriented for affinity labeling of these dehydrogenases. The bromoalkyl esters may be useful for inactivating other enzymes. 相似文献

STUDIES ON ENZYME ACTION : XXXV. LIPASE ACTIONS OF EXTRACTS OF TISSUES OF RABBITS AT DIFFERENT AGES.
Helen Miller Noyes K. George Falk Emil J. Baumann 《The Journal of general physiology》1926,9(5):651-675
The ester-hydrolyzing actions of extracts of a number of tissues of rabbits of different ages were studied under comparable conditions. The ages of the rabbits ranged from 8 days before birth to 2162 days. The esters used included phenyl acetate, glyceryl triacetate, methyl butyrate, benzyl acetate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, ethyl butyrate, methyl benzoate, ethyl benzoate, and isobutyl acetate. The following tissues were studied: kidney, liver, lung, skin, leg muscle, heart muscle, brain, spleen, stomach, and small intestine. The results, as in previous communications, are presented in the form of plots for the relative enzyme actions, and in tables for the absolute actions. The changes in the curves of the relative actions as the rabbits became older are considered in some detail. The relations between the embryonic state of certain tissues, as shown by their enzyme actions, and the adult state, are described, and compared with their physiological behavior. The probable reversion to a type approaching the embryonic for the oldest rabbits studied is indicated with some of the tissues. The changes in the absolute enzyme actions of the tissues as the rabbits became older are also discussed. The absolute actions do not form as regular a progression as do the relative actions but, at the same time, show marked regularities with increasing age of the rabbits. 相似文献

The carboxylesterase (carboxylic-ester hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.1) and monoacylglycerol lipase (glycerol-monoester acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.23) activities, measured against ethyl butyrate and emulsified monooleoylglycerol respectively, were determined for chicken liver microsomes and highly purified chicken liver carboxylesterase. The activity ratio (ethyl butyrate activity/monooleoylglycerol activity) was approx. 5 for microsomes and approx. 400 for carboxylesterase. Homogenization of microsomes in 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.92) released all of the ethyl butyrate activity and about half of the monooleoylglycerol activity into a soluble form. Both activities eluted from a Sephadex G-200 column with the same elution volume as that of pure carboxylesterase. This fraction (fraction B) had an activity ratio of approx. 15, an average pI of 5.01 (cf. 4.75 for carboxylesterase), and ran on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 8.6 as a number of closely spaced esterase bands with mobilities considerably less than those of the esterase bands present in the carboxylesterase. Fraction B activities against both substrates were completely inhibited by diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate and completely precipitated by antibody to carboxylesterase. The remaining half of the monoacylglycerol lipase activity of microsomes was solubilized by treatment with 1.5% (w/v) Triton X-100. This solubilized monoacylglycerol lipase was completely inhibited by diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate, showing it to be a serine-dependent enzyme like the carboxylesterases. However, it had no detectable activity against ethyl butyrate, indicating that it is not closely related to the carboxylesterases. 相似文献

Lectins play important role in innate immunity of animals. The affinity of the natural haemagglutinin of the giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii towards vertebrate erythrocytes and its level with relation to sex, size and moult stages were studied. The strongest agglutinating titres in haemolymph of prawns were marked against guinea pig, chicken, Clarias batrachus, and rabbit erythrocytes, and the weakest towards cattle, dog, horse and goat erythrocytes. A moderately agglutinating titre was evident in duck and human erythrocytes. The haemolymph of adult, male or intermoult stage prawns weighing more than 100 g had the highest haemagglutinating activity as compared to their respective counterparts with varied responses observed towards various erythrocytes. 相似文献

Production of flavor esters by immobilized lipase 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary
Candida
cylindracea lipase adsorbed to silica gel produced a variety of flavor esters when hydrated and shaken in n-heptane containing substrates. Scale-up production of ethyl butyrate was examined in a packed column with recycling of n-hexane containing substrates. Increased substrate concentrations were stimulatory up to a point after which inhibition and enzyme destabilization in repeated runs occurred. 相似文献

We have studied the kinetics of hydrolysis of triacylglycerols, vinyl esters and p-nitrophenyl butyrate by four carboxylesterases of the HSL family, namely recombinant human hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), EST2 from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius, AFEST from Archeoglobus fulgidus, and protein RV1399C from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The kinetic properties of enzymes of the HSL family have been compared to those of a series of lipolytic and non-lipolytic carboxylesterases including human pancreatic lipase, guinea pig pancreatic lipase related protein 2, lipases from Mucor miehei and Thermomyces lanuginosus, cutinase from Fusarium solani, LipA from Bacillus subtilis, porcine liver esterase and Esterase A from Aspergilus niger. Results indicate that human HSL, together with other lipolytic carboxylesterases, are active on short chain esters and hydrolyze water insoluble trioctanoin, vinyl laurate and olive oil, whereas the action of EST2, AFEST, protein RV1399C and non-lipolytic carboxylesterases is restricted to solutions of short chain substrates. Lipolytic and non-lipolytic carboxylesterases can be differentiated by their respective value of K(0.5) (apparent K(m)) for the hydrolysis of short chain esters. Among lipolytic enzymes, those possessing a lid domain display higher activity on tributyrin, trioctanoin and olive oil suggesting, then, that the lid structure contributes to enzyme binding to triacylglycerols. Progress reaction curves of the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate by lipolytic carboxylesterases with lid domain show a latency phase which is not observed with human HSL, non-lipolytic carboxylesterases, and lipolytic enzymes devoid of a lid structure as cutinase. 相似文献

During the final stage of purification of pig liver carboxylesterase on CM-Sephadex, several enzyme activities are present in addition to the pig liver carboxylesterase reported from this laboratory (Horgan et al., 1969a). Variation in substrate specificity and specific activity of the material isolated from CM-Sephadex has been analysed with four substrates - methyl, ethyl and phenyl butyrates and butyrycholine. The sensitivity of various fractions to paraoxon, eserine and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride is also examined. The results support the conclusion that the variability of pig liver carboxylesterase reported from other laboratories is due to the heterogeneity here defined. 相似文献

Isoproterenol inhibits the hydrolysis of butyrylthiocholine by horse plasma cholinesterase, while it stimulates the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate. The inhibition pattern obtained for butyrylthiocholine is consistent with a dimeric model for the enzyme showing negative cooperativity. The kinetics of inhibition point to a dissociative effect of isoproterenol, superimposed on its competitive inhibitory action. The hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate is not sensitive to changes in the subunit composition of the enzyme. 相似文献

Polarographic determination of esterase and lipase activities using esters of -naphthols 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The polarographic method of the determination of esterase and lipase activities using esters of β-naphthol has been elaborated. The activity of esterase of pig liver, house-fly heads, lyophilized horse serum, and human serum; and lipase activity of pig liver and pancreas was determined. Advantages of the polarographic method lie in using the same calibration curve of nitrosated β-naphthol for determinations of activities of several enzyme sources and in the stability of nitrosated β-naphthol in comparison to the colored reaction product of β-naphthol and tetraazotized o-dianisidin needed for spectrophotometry. 相似文献

Various oxalyl thiol esters (RSCOCOO-), especially S-oxalylglutathione (GS-Ox), were found to be very effective inhibitors of chicken liver malic enzyme. When the conditions are similar to those encountered physiologically [high reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) concentrations], inhibition is detectable with less than 1 microM concentrations of GS-Ox. The amount of inhibition is not reversed by excess glutathione, thus indicating that it is not due to oxalyl transfer to some enzymic thiol group with release of glutathione. Detailed kinetic studies show that the inhibition by GS-Ox can be treated as a simple reversible binding to the enzyme; the double reciprocal plot patterns indicate that the inhibition is linear noncompetitive (mixed type), vs. both L-malate in the oxidative decarboxylation reaction and pyruvate in the reverse reaction. At pH 7.4 and 25 degrees C in the presence of 100-200 microM NADPH, the Kis and Kii values for GS-Ox are 0.7 and 5 microM, respectively, and are the same for reactions run in either direction. The high specificity for GS-Ox is indicated by the observation that, under similar conditions, the Kis values for S-oxalyl coenzyme A and S-oxalyl-N-acetylcysteamine are 40 and 150 microM, respectively. Such high specificity indicates that the enzyme has evolved a specific binding site for the glutathione part of GS-Ox. The current results, when considered in conjunction with recent evidence that oxalyl thiol esters are present in animal tissues at concentrations up to 50 microM, imply that GS-Ox is an important in vivo regulator of malic enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A series of bis-[(m-hydroxyphenyl)trimethylammonium iodide] esters of polymethylenedicarbamic acids and a number of (m-hydroxyphenyl)trimethylammonium iodide esters of straight-chain N-alkylcarbamic acids have been examined as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase from fly head. Evidence is presented suggesting that inhibition of acetylcholinesterase by the bis-carbamates is due to carbamoylation of the enzyme, as is generally thought to be the case with esters of N-alkylcarbamic acids. Inhibition is irreversible. The (m-hydroxyphenyl)trimethylammonium iodide ester of N-hexylcarbamic acid also inhibits fly head acetylcholinesterase irreversibly. There is therefore no need to implicate a second functional group in bis-carbamate esters to explain the irreversible inhibition of the enzyme. An unusual feature of the inhibition is that inhibition lines do not pass through 100% enzyme activity at t=0, except for rather low concentrations of inhibitor (<10mum for the octamethylene compound). Also, inhibition lines tend towards a maximum slope as inhibitor concentration is increased. The first observation indicates complex-formation, even in the presence of high concentrations of substrate, and by using measurements of inhibition at relatively high inhibitor concentrations, affinity constants K'(a) have been calculated. K'(a) varies from 0.1mum for the dodecamethylene compound to 10mum for the tetramethylene compound, in the presence of 3.75mm-acetylthiocholine, indicating high affinity for the enzyme. The second observation shows that, owing to this high affinity, the enzyme becomes saturated with inhibitor under the experimental conditions employed, and from the limiting slope values of the carbamoylation rate constant (k(2)) have been calculated. k(2) varies from 0.15min(-1) for the tetramethylene compound to 1min(-1) for the decamethylene compound. Variations of potency in this series are therefore mainly due to changes in affinity (100-fold) rather than in carbamoylation rate (sevenfold). The observation that large molecules may acylate the enzyme raises certain problems, which are discussed. 相似文献

Corticosteroid side-chain (CSC) isomerase catalyzes ketol-aldol interconversion of the corticosteroid side chain. The enzyme was present in the blood of mouse, rat, guinea pig, chicken, pig, horse, sheep, cow, and human. The patterns of substrate specificity, measuring 3H-1H exchange of 21-tritiated forms of 11-deoxycorticosterone, corticosterone, and cortisol, were species specific. Based on enzyme activity and immunostaining of mouse blood fractions, red blood cells had the most isomerase activity, plasma had less, and white blood cells had low but highly variable levels of enzyme. Purified mouse liver CSC isomerase was found to be adsorbed by red blood cells. The results suggest that circulating CSC isomerase is derived in part from tissue sources and is in part an intrinsic blood enzyme. 相似文献

Bilirubin UDPglucuronosyltransferase of rat or human liver microsomes was inhibited, in vitro, by triphenylacetic acid and by structurally related arylcarboxylic acids. This inhibition appeared to be competitive towards bilirubin, and mixed-type towards UDPglucuronic acid. A decrease in the number of phenyl rings or the absence of the carboxyl group in the molecule gave structures which did not affect enzyme activity, showing that both the triphenyl moiety and the carboxyl group were necessary for the inhibition. On the other hand, successive additions of methylene groups in the aliphatic chain progressively increased inhibitory potency. Kappi,bilirubin for triphenylacetic acid was 96 microM compared with 5 microM for 7,7,7-triphenylheptanoic acid. The inhibition of bilirubin UDPglucuronosyltransferase was not due to displacement of bilirubin from albumin. On the basis of these results an attempt was made to delineate the molecular events leading to glucuronidation of bilirubin. 相似文献

1. The total capacities of homogenates of bovine liver and rumen epithelium to activate acetate, propionate and butyrate were determined. 2. Activating capacities were assayed by measuring the rate of formation of the corresponding CoA esters. The methods used for determining the concentrations of the CoA esters allowed the CoA esters of acetate, propionate and butyrate to be distinguished. It was thus possible to investigate the effect of the presence of a second volatile fatty acid on the rate at which a given volatile fatty acid was activated. 3. The propionate-activating capacity in rumen epithelium was decreased by about 87% in the presence of butyrate, the acetate-activating capacity in liver was decreased by about 55% in the presence of either propionate or butyrate, and the butyrate-activating capacity in liver was decreased by about 40-50% in the presence of propionate. 4. All three activating capacities in liver appeared to be located in the mitochondrial matrix and membrane. The three activating capacities had similar locations to each other in rumen epithelium as well, although in this case activity was more evenly divided between the mitochondria and the cytoplasm. 5. The relative activating capacities towards the volatile fatty acids in the two tissues, together with the ability of one volatile fatty acid to inhibit the activation of another volatile fatty acid, appear to ensure that butyrate is mainly metabolized in the rumen epithelium and that propionate is metabolized in the liver. 相似文献

Heterologous radioimmunoassays for a semiquantitative analysis of alpha 1-microglobulin were developed, exploiting the binding between polyclonal rabbit or goat antisera against human, guinea pig, or rat alpha 1-microglobulin and 125I-labeled human, guinea pig, or rat alpha 1-microglobulin. Homologues of this protein were detected in human, guinea pig, Rhesus monkey, rat, mouse, rabbit, goat, horse, and cow serum by inhibition of a set of heterologous radioimmunoassays. Serum proteins were separated by gel chromatography, and fractions were pooled, concentrated, and radiolabeled with 125I. By immunoprecipitation of the radioiodinated serum pools with heterologous anti-alpha 1-microglobulin-sera, and separating the precipitates by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, analogues of alpha 1-microglobulin were isolated from serum of man, guinea pig, Rhesus monkey, rat, mouse, horse, and chicken. The apparent molecular weight of alpha 1-microglobulin was 31,000-32,000 in human and monkey serum and 24,000-26,000 in guinea pig, rat, mouse, horse, and chicken serum. The possibility of an addition of a 5,000-8,000-Da peptide in primate alpha 1-microglobulin is discussed. 相似文献

Two purified carboxylesterases that were isolated from a rat liver microsomal fraction in a Norwegian and a German laboratory were compared. The Norwegian enzyme preparation was classified as palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.2) in many earlier papers, whereas the German preparation was termed monoacylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.23) or esterase pI 6.2/6.4 (non-specific carboxylesterase, EC 3.1.1.1). Antisera against the two purified enzyme preparations were cross-reactive. The two proteins co-migrate in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Both enzymes exhibit identical inhibition characteristics with Mg2+, Ca2+ and bis-(4-nitrophenyl) phosphate if assayed with the two substrates palmitoyl-CoA and phenyl butyrate. It is concluded that the two esterase preparations are identical. However, immunoprecipitation and inhibition experiments confirm that this microsomal lipase differs from the palmitoyl-CoA hydrolases of rat liver cytosol and mitochondria. 相似文献

Chicken, sheep, and horse liver carboxylesterases have been purified by procedures involving ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex. The actual yields of the procedures described were as follows: chicken, 1 g from 2 kg of liver powder (chloroform-acetone); sheep, 200 mg from 400 g of powder (chloroform-acetone); horse, 230 mg from 800 g of powder (acetone). The purified enzymes are free of non-carboxyl-esterase protein as shown by gel electrophoresis, although they do contain electrophoretic variants. The equivalent weight of the chicken enzyme is 67,000 based on titration with p-nitrophenyl diethyl phosphate or bis(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate, whereas those of the sheep and horse enzymes are similar to 69,500 and similar to 70,000, respectively, based on titration with p-nitrophenyl dimethylcarbamate. 相似文献

The baker's yeast mediated reduction of four β-keto esters in petroleum ether indicated that the size of the group attached to the keto carbon affected their reactivity. Ethyl 3-phenyl-3-oxopropanoate (1), which has a phenyl group directly attached to the keto carbon, is incompletely reduced using 20 g yeast/mmol substrate, ethyl 4-phenyl-3-oxobutanoate (2), which has one methylene group between the phenyl and keto carbon, was also incompletely reduced using 20 g yeast/mmol, although the extent of reduction was about double that of (1), ethyl 5-phenyl-3-oxopentanoate (3), which has two methylene groups between the phenyl and keto carbon, is completely reduced using 10 g yeast/mmol and ethyl 3-oxobutanoate (4), which has a methyl group attached to the keto carbon shows complete reduction using only 1 g yeast/mmol. The corresponding β-keto amides are considerably less reactive than the corresponding β-keto esters with only the amides derived from ethyl 3-oxobutanoate indicating any significant reduction using 20 g yeast/mmol. 相似文献

The recovery of 1‐butanol from fermentation broth is energy‐intensive since typical concentrations in fermentation broth are below 20 g L?1. To prevent butanol inhibition and high downstream processing costs, we aimed at producing butyl esters instead of 1‐butanol. It is shown that it is possible to perform simultaneously clostridial fermentation, esterification of the formed butanol to butyl butyrate, and extraction of this ester by hexadecane. The very high partition coefficient of butyl butyrate pulls the esterification towards the product side even at fermentation pH and relatively low butanol concentrations. The hexadecane extractant is a model diesel compound and is nontoxic to the cells. If butyl butyrate enriched diesel can directly be used as car fuel, no product recovery is required. A proof‐of‐principle experiment for the one‐pot bio‐ester production from glucose led to 5 g L?1 butyl butyrate in the hexadecane phase. The principle may be extended to a wide range of esters, especially to longer chain ones. Biotechnol. Bioeng. 2013; 110: 137–142. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

A series of 124 basic ethyl esters of alkoxy-substituted phenylcarbamic acids with the alkoxy group in position 2, 3 or 4 on the phenyl ring, and basic substituents attached to the ethyl moiety in position 2, were evaluated for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium avium. In vitro antimycobacterial activity becomes higher with increasing hydrophobic properties of the alkoxy groups. The p- and m-substituted derivatives were more active than the o-substituted ones. Direct relationship between the structure of the basic substituents and the activity was not found. 相似文献
