Highly purified hog liver flavin-containing monooxygenase was sequentially denatured, reduced, carboxymethylated, and digested with endoproteinase Glu-C. The purified peptides were subjected to mass spectrometric analysis and the amino acid sequence of selected fragments was determined by tandem mass spectrometry. The amino acid sequence of the first 12 residues of the N-terminus was: Ac-Ala-Lys-Arg-Val-Ala-Ile-Val-Gly-Ala-Gly-Val-Ser-Gly. The amino acid sequence determined for another peptide was: Lys-Ser-Val-Leu-Val-Val-Gly-Met-Gly-Asn-Ser-Gly-Thr-Asp-Ile-Ala-Val-Glu. The results provide direct evidence for the structure of the N-terminal modification of the protein and for the existence of the FAD and NADP binding domains of Gly-X-Gly-X-X-Gly.  相似文献

The amino acid sequence of rat brain prostaglandin D synthetase (Urade, Y., Fujimoto, N., and Hayaishi, O. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 12410-12415) was determined by a combination of cDNA and protein sequencing. cDNA clones specific for this enzyme were isolated from a lambda gt11 rat brain cDNA expression library. Nucleotide sequence analyses of cloned cDNA inserts revealed that this enzyme consisted of a 564- or 549-base pair open reading frame coding for a 188- or 183-amino acid polypeptide with a Mr of 21,232 or 20,749 starting at the first or second ATG. About 60% of the deduced amino acid sequence was confirmed by partial amino acid sequencing of tryptic peptides of the purified enzyme. The recognition sequence for N-glycosylation was seen at two positions of amino acid residues 51-53 (-Asn-Ser-Ser-) and 78-80 (-Asn-Leu-Thr-) counted from the first Met. Both sites were considered to be glycosylated with carbohydrate chains of Mr 3,000, since two smaller proteins with Mr 23,000 and 20,000 were found during deglycosylation of the purified enzyme (Mr 26,000) with N-glycanase. The prostaglandin D synthetase activity was detected in fusion proteins obtained from lysogens with recombinants coding from 34 and 19 nucleotides upstream and 47 and 77 downstream from the first ATG, indicating that the glycosyl chain and about 20 amino acid residues of N terminus were not essential for the enzyme activity. The amino acid composition of the purified enzyme indicated that about 20 residues of hydrophobic amino acids of the N terminus are post-translationally deleted, probably as a signal peptide. These results, together with the immunocytochemical localization of this enzyme to rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum and other nuclear membrane of oligodendrocytes (Urade, Y., Fujimoto, N., Kaneko, T., Konishi, A., Mizuno, N., and Hayaishi, O. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 15132-15136) suggest that this enzyme is a membrane-associated protein.  相似文献

Purification and cDNA cloning of rat 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
6-Pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase, which catalyzes the second step in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin, was purified approximately 18,000-fold to apparent homogeneity from rat liver. The molecular mass of the native enzyme was estimated to be 83 kDa by gel filtration. The enzyme showed a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis corresponding to a molecular mass of 17 kDa. Up to 24 residues of the NH2-terminal sequence were determined by Edman degradation, which released a single amino acid at each step. These results indicate that the enzyme consists of identical subunits. The purified enzyme was digested with lysyl endopeptidase or V8 protease, and 11 peptide fragments were isolated. On the basis of the sequences of these peptides, oligonucleotides were synthesized and used to screen a rat liver cDNA library, and one cDNA clone was isolated. The complete nucleotide sequence of the 1176-base pair cDNA was then determined. The deduced amino acid sequence contained 144 amino acid residues, but a NH2-terminal four-amino acid sequence was not found in the purified protein. Therefore, the mature protein consists of 140 amino acids. A single mRNA band of 1.3 kilobases was obtained by RNA blot analysis of rat liver. The predicted amino acid sequence of 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase was compared with the Protein Sequence Database of the National Biomedical Research Foundation, revealing significant local similarity to large T antigens from the polyomavirus family.  相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of the Drosophila melanogaster Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase subunit has been determined by automated Edman degradation. Sequence analyses were performed on the intact S-carboxymethylated protein, two fragments derived from CNBr cleavage, and three peptides recovered from mouse submaxillary protease digestion of the reduced and S-carboxymethylated enzyme. The peptides were aligned by characterizing peptides yielded by trypsin and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. All the peptides studied were purified exclusively by reverse-phase columns of HPLC and were analyzed with an improved liquid-phase sequencer. A molecular weight of 15,750 (subunit) was calculated from the 151 residues sequenced. The amino acid sequence of the Drosophila superoxide dismutase subunit is compared with that of four other eucaryotes: man, horse, cow, and yeast. Comparison of the five primary structures reveals very different rates of evolution at different times. Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase appears to be a very erratic evolutionary clock.

The complete amino acid sequence of 6-phospho-fructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase from rat liver was determined by direct analysis of the S-carboxamidomethyl protein. A complete set of nonoverlapping peptides was produced by cleavage with a combination of cyanogen bromide and specific proteolytic enzymes. The active enzyme is a dimer of two identical polypeptide chains composed of 470 amino acids each. The NH2-terminal amino acid residue of the polypeptide chain was shown to be N-acetylserine by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry of the purified N-terminal tetradecapeptide isolated after cleavage of the intact S-carboxamidomethylated protein with lysyl endoproteinase (Achromobacter protease I). Alignment of the set of unique peptides was accomplished by the analysis of selected overlapping peptides generated by proteolytic cleavage of the intact protein and the larger purified cyanogen bromide peptides with trypsin, Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and lysyl endoproteinase. Four nonoverlapping peptides were aligned by comparison with the amino acid sequence predicted from a partial cDNA clone encoding amino acid positions 166-470 of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (Colosia, A.D., Lively, M., El-Maghrabi, M. R., and Pilkis, S. J. (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 143, 1092-1098). The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA corroborated the peptide sequence determined by direct methods. A search of the Protein Identification Resource protein sequence database revealed that the overall amino acid sequence appears to be unique since no obviously homologous sequences were identified. However, a 100-residue segment of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (residues 250-349), including the active site histidine residue of the bisphosphatase domain, was found to be homologous to the active site regions of yeast phosphoglycerate mutase and human bisphosphoglycerate mutase.  相似文献

Sarcosine oxidase from Corynebacterium sp. U-96 is inhibited by iodoacetamide (IAM) and the inhibition is prevented by the substrate analog, sodium acetate. To elucidate the mechanism of inhibition of the enzyme by IAM, we determined the amino acid sequences around the IAM-reactive cysteine residues, and the effects of the modification on the enzyme activity and the oxidation-reduction of the FAD moieties of the enzyme. The enzyme was specifically labeled with [14C]IAM, and the labeled subunit B was digested with trypsin and chymotrypsin. The HPLC profiles of the proteolytic digests showed mainly two radioactive peaks. The 14C-labeled peptides were purified, and their N-terminal sequences were determined to be Cys-Gly-Thr-Pro-Gly-Ala-Gly-Tyr (TC-1) and Ala-Gly-Ile-Ala-Cys-Xaa-Asp-Xaa-Val-Ala(-)- (TC-2). Peptide TC-2 contains a covalent FAD-binding sequence [Asx-His-Val-Ala; Shiga et al. (1983) Biochem. Int., 6, 737]. [14C]IAM-incorporation into the TC-1 sequence was strongly inhibited by sodium acetate. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the CNBr fragment containing the TC-1 sequence (65 residues) was determined. According to the secondary structure predictions, Gly-Thr-Pro-Gly-Ala-Gly of the TC-1 sequence is located between the beta sheet and alpha helix of the sequence, indicating the presence of an AMP-binding site in the TC-1 region. The activity of the enzyme treated with IAM in the presence and absence of sodium acetate was not inhibited by sodium sulfite, which is known to react specifically with covalent FAD.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A 64 kD protein was enriched from rat liver mito-chondria during the purification of choline dehydro-genase (CHDH)[1]. Homologous comparison and func-tional experiments demonstrated that the protein was electron-transfer flavoprotein-ubiquinone oxidoreduc-tase protein (ETF-QO). The N-terminal sequence determination of rat liver ETF-QO protein purified by various methods did not provide unequivocal result.

The amino acid sequence of histidine-containing protein (HPr) from Streptococcus faecalis has been determined by direct Edman degradation of intact HPr and by amino acid sequence analysis of tryptic peptides, V8 proteolytic peptides, thermolytic peptides, and cyanogen bromide cleavage products. HPr from S. faecalis was found to contain 89 amino acid residues, corresponding to a molecular weight of 9438. The amino acid sequence of HPr from S. faecalis shows extended homology to the primary structure of HPr proteins from other bacteria. Besides the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of a histidyl residue in HPr, catalyzed by enzyme I of the bacterial phosphotransferase system, HPr was also found to be phosphorylated at a seryl residue in an ATP-dependent protein kinase catalyzed reaction [Deutscher, J., & Saier, M. H., Jr. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 6790-6794]. The site of ATP-dependent phosphorylation in HPr of S. faecalis has now been determined. [32P]P-Ser-HPr was digested with three different proteases, and in each case, a single labeled peptide was isolated. Following digestion with subtilisin, we obtained a peptide with the sequence -(P)Ser-Ile-Met-. Using chymotrypsin, we isolated a peptide with the sequence -Ser-Val-Asn-Leu-Lys-(P)Ser-Ile-Met-Gly-Val-Met-. The longest labeled peptide was obtained with V8 staphylococcal protease. According to amino acid analysis, this peptide contained 36 out of the 89 amino acid residues of HPr. The following sequence of 12 amino acid residues of the V8 peptide was determined: -Tyr-Lys-Gly-Lys-Ser-Val-Asn-Leu-Lys-(P)Ser-Ile-Met-.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The primary structure of the cytotoxin alpha-sarcin   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The primary structure of the cytotoxin alpha-sarcin was determined. Eighteen of the 19 tryptic peptides were purified; the other peptide has arginine only. The complete sequence of 17 of the peptides was determined; the sequence of the remaining peptide was determined in part. The sequence of the 39 NH2-terminal residues was obtained by automated Edman degradation. The carboxyl-terminal amino acids were identified after carboxypeptidase treatment. The assignment of the amino acids in the tryptic peptides was confirmed and their alignment established from the sequence of the secondary tryptic peptides obtained after cleavage of citraconylated alpha-sarcin, from the sequence of a 2-(2-nitrophenylsulfenyl)-3-methyl-3'-bromoindolenine peptide, from the sequence of a chymotryptic peptide, and from the sequence of a peptide obtained with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. alpha-Sarcin contains 150 amino acid residues; the molecular weight is 16,987. There are disulfide bridges between cysteine residues at positions 6 and 148 and between residues 76 and 132.  相似文献

Cholesterol oxidase [EC 1.1.3.6] from Schizophyllum commune was purified by an affinity chromatography using 3-O-succinylcholesterol-ethylenediamine (3-cholesteryl-3-[2-aminoethylamido]propionate) Sepharose gels. The resulting preparation was homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 53,000 by SDS-gel electrophoresis and 46,000 by sedimentation equilibrium. The enzyme contained 483 amino acid residues as calculated on the basis of the molecular weight of 53,000. The enzyme consumed 60 mumol of O2/min per mg of protein with 1.3 mM cholesterol at 37 degrees C. The enzyme showed the highest activity with cholesterol; 3 beta-hydroxysteroids, such as dehydroepiandrosterone, pregnenolone, and lanosterol, were also oxidized at slower rates. Ergosterol was not oxidized by the enzyme. The Km for cholesterol was 0.33 mM and the optimal pH was 5.0. The enzyme is a flavoprotein which shows a visible absorption spectrum having peaks at 353 nm and 455 nm in 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 4.0. The spectrum was characterized by the hypsochromic shift of the second absorption peak of the bound flavin. The bound flavin was reduced on anaerobic addition of a model substrate, dehydroepiandrosterone. Neither acid not heat treatment released the flavin coenzyme from the enzyme protein. The flavin of the enzyme could be easily released from the enzyme protein in acid-soluble form as flavin peptides when the enzyme protein was digested with trypsin plus chymotrypsin. The mobilities of the aminoacyl flavin after hydrolysis of the flavin peptides on thin layer chromatography and high voltage electrophoresis differed from those of free FAD, FMN, and riboflavin. A pKa value of 5.1 was obtained from pH-dependent fluorescence quenching process of the aminoacyl flavin. AMP was detected by hydrolysis of the flavin peptides with nucleotide pyrophosphatase. The results indicate strongly that cholesterol oxidase from Schizophyllum commune contains FAD as the prothetic group, which is covalently linked to the enzyme protein. The properties of the bound FAD were comparable to those of N (1)-histidyl FAD.  相似文献

A membrane-bound protein was purified from rat liver mitochondria. After being digested with V8 protease, two peptides containing identical 14 amino acid residue sequences were obtained. Using the 14 amino acid peptide derived DNA sequence as gene specific primer, the cDNA of correspondent gene 5′-terminal and 3′-terminal were obtained by RACE technique. The full-length cDNAthat encoded a protein of 616 amino acids was thus cloned, which included the above mentioned peptide sequence. The full length cDNA was highly homologous to that of human ETF-QO, indicating that it may be the cDNA of rat ETF-QO. ETF-QO is an iron sulfur protein located in mitochondria inner membrane containing two kinds of redox center: FAD and [4Fe-4S] center. After comparing the sequence from the cDNA of the 616 amino acids protein with that of the mature protein of rat liver mitochondria, it was found that the N terminal 32 amino acid residues did not exist in the mature protein, indicating that the cDNA was that of ETF-QOp. When the cDNA was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae with inducible vectors, the protein product was enriched in mitochondrial fraction and exhibited electron transfer activity (NBT reductase activity) of ETF-QO. Results demonstrated that the 32 amino acid peptide was a mitochondrial targeting peptide, and both FAD and iron-sulfur cluster were inserted properly into the expressed ETF-QO. ETF-QO had a high level expression in rat heart, liver and kidney. The fusion protein of GFP-ETF-QO co-localized with mitochondria in COS-7 cells.  相似文献

The general aminopeptidase PepN from Streptococcus thermophilus A was purified to protein homogeneity by hydroxyapatite, anion-exchange, and gel filtration chromatographies. The PepN enzyme was estimated to be a monomer of 95 kDa, with maximal activity on N-Lys-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin at pH 7 and 37 degrees C. It was strongly inhibited by metal chelating agents, suggesting that it is a metallopeptidase. The activity was greatly restored by the bivalent cations Co2+, Zn2+, and Mn2+. Except for proline, glycine, and acidic amino acid residues, PepN has a broad specificity on the N-terminal amino acid of small peptides, but no significant endopeptidase activity has been detected. The N-terminal and short internal amino acid sequences of purified PepN were determined. By using synthetic primers and a battery of PCR techniques, the pepN gene was amplified, subcloned, and further sequenced, revealing an open reading frame of 2,541 nucleotides encoding a protein of 847 amino acids with a molecular weight of 96,252. Amino acid sequence analysis of the pepN gene translation product shows high homology with other PepN enzymes from lactic acid bacteria and exhibits the signature sequence of the zinc metallopeptidase family. The pepN gene was cloned in a T7 promoter-based expression plasmid and the 452-fold overproduced PepN enzyme was purified to homogeneity from the periplasmic extract of the host Escherichia coli strain. The overproduced enzyme showed the same catalytic characteristics as the wild-type enzyme.  相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of ribonuclease U1 (RNase U1), a guanine-specific ribonuclease from a fungus, Ustilago sphaerogena, was determined by conventional protein sequencing, using peptide fragments obtained by several enzymatic cleavages of the performic acid-oxidized protein. The oxidized protein was first cleaved by trypsin and the resulting peptides were purified and their amino acid sequences were determined. These tryptic peptides were aligned with the aid of overlapping peptides isolated from a chymotryptic digest of the oxidized protein. The amino acid sequence thus deduced was further confirmed by isolation and analysis of peptides obtained by digestion of the oxidized protein with lysyl endopeptidase. The location of the disulfide bonds was deduced by isolation and analysis of cystine-containing peptides from a chymotryptic digest of heat-denatured RNase U1. These results showed that the protein is composed of a single polypeptide chain of 105 amino acid residues cross-linked by two disulfide bonds, having a molecular weight of 11,235, and that the NH2-terminus is blocked by a pyroglutamate residue. It has an overall homology with other guanine-specific or related ribonucleases, and shows 48% identity with RNase T1 and 38% identity with RNase U2.  相似文献

Summary The amino acid sequence of D-amino acid oxidase from Rhodotorula gracilis was determined by automated Edman degradation of peptides generated by enzymatic and chemical cleavage. The enzyme monomer contains 368 amino acid residues and its sequence is homologous to that of other known D-amino acid oxidases. Six highly conserved regions appear to have a specific role in binding of coenzyme FAD, in active site topology and in peroxisomal targeting. Moreover, Rhodotorula gracilis D-amino acid oxidase contains a region with a cluster of basic amino acids, probably exposed to solvent, which is absent in other D-amino acid oxidases.  相似文献

Human liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) cDNA clones were identified in a liver cDNA library. The two longest clones were completely sequenced. The nucleotide sequence predicts a protein of 127 amino acid residues. Identity of the clones was confirmed by limited amino acid sequence analysis of purified human L-FABP peptides and Edman degradation of radiolabeled in vitro translated FABP. Statistical analysis of the amino acid and mRNA sequences of human L-FABP, rat L-FABP, rat intestinal (I-) FABP, and mouse 422 protein indicates that the human and rat L-FABPs are highly homologous and that L-FABP and I-FABP diverged a long time ago (approximately 650-690 million years ago), although they are more closely related to each other than either of them is to 422 protein. Secondary structure predictions from the primary sequence of human and rat L-FABP reveal a region (residues 12-30) that might be the putative fatty acid binding domain of the two L-FABPs. Knowledge of the primary amino acid sequence of L-FABP and possible functional domains will be pivotal in further defining and understanding the mechanism of ligand binding and transfer by this protein.  相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of a basic (pI 9.0) fatty acid-binding protein purified from liver of Gallus domesticus was determined by automated Edman degradation of tryptic, CNBr/HFBA and Staphylococcus aureus protease peptides. The protein contains 125 amino acid residues which correspond to a molecular mass of 14094. The identification of the blocked N-terminus Ac-Ala required digestion of a SV-8 peptide with the acylamino acid-releasing enzyme prior to sequence analysis. Sequence comparison shows that chicken liver basic-FABP has a significant similarity to other proteins belonging to the superfamily of intracellular lipid molecule binding proteins. Moreover, these sequence data confirm that basic-FABP probably binds its substrate in a slightly different way when compared with other FABPs. Basic-FABP was submitted to the EMBL Data Library with an accession number of P80226  相似文献

The major form of dihydrofolate reductase from a methotrexate-resistant mutant (strain A) of Streptococcus faecium var. Durans has been purified on a large scale. Amino acid analysis of this form of the enzyme (isoenzyme 2) reveals an absence of cystine or cysteine, and sedimentation studies indicate a molecular weight of 20,800. The NH2-terminal sequence was determined by Edman degradation of the intact protein and the COOH terminus by selective tritiation and by carboxypeptidase treatment. After the action of trypsin on the citraconylated protein, seven of the expected nine peptides were purified from the digest, and after cyanogen bromide treatment of the unmodified protein, all seven of the anticipated peptides were isolated. The amino acid composition of all of these peptides has been established as well as their complete or partial sequences. From the results it was possible to order these peptides within the sequence and to establish the sequence of the NH2-terminal 60 residues and the COOH-terminal 11 residues.  相似文献

A metallo-endopeptidase, which appears to be an integral membrane protein of rat kidney, was purified to homogeneity by a series of standard chromatographic procedures. This enzyme significantly hydrolyzed human parathyroid hormone [hPTH(1-84)] and a synthetic substrate Suc-Leu-Leu-Val-Tyr-Mec (Suc = succinyl, Mec = 4-methyl-coumarinyl-7-amide). The purified enzyme had apparent molecular masses of 250 kDa on gel filtration, and 88 kDa and 245 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing and non-reducing conditions, respectively. Its pH optimum for activity was 8.0-8.5 and its isoelectric point was pH 4.9. Its activity was inhibited by EDTA, EGTA and o-phenanthroline, but not by phosphoramidon. The metal-depleted enzyme was reactivated by the addition of metal ions. The enzyme was also inhibited by chymostatin and eglin C, and by thiol compounds. Of the synthetic substrates examined, the enzyme hydrolyzed only Suc-Leu-Leu-Val-Tyr-Mec, one of the synthetic substrates for alpha-chymotrypsin. It did not hydrolyze synthetic substrates with less than four amino acid residues with tyrosine in the P1 position. The enzyme hydrolyzed hPTH and reduced hen egg lysozyme but did not hydrolyze azocasein or [3H]methyl-casein. NH2-terminal amino acid sequence analyses of the degradation products of hPTH(1-84) and reduced hen egg lysozyme by the purified enzyme revealed that the enzyme preferentially cleaved these peptides at peptide bonds flanked by hydrophilic amino acid residues. Amino acid analyses showed that the main degradation products of PTH were hPTH(17-29), hPTH(30-38) and hPTH(74-84). The ability of the enzyme to hydrolyze peptide bonds flanked by hydrophilic amino acid residues and its inability to degrade azocasein distinguish it from several other kidney endopeptidases reported, such as endopeptidase 24.11 and meprin.  相似文献

Chemical and proteolytic digestion of intact erythrocyte glucose transporter as well as purified transporter protein has been used to localize the derivatization site for the photoaffinity agent 3-[125I]iodo-4-azido-phenethylamino-7-O-succinyldeacetylforskol in [( 125I]IAPS-forskolin). Comparison of the partial amino acid sequence of the labelled 18 kDa tryptic fragment with the known amino acid sequence for the HepG2 glucose transporter confirmed that the binding site for IAPS-forskolin is between the amino acid residues Glu254 and Tyr456. Digestion of intact glucose transporter with Pronase suggests that this site is within the membrane bilayer. Digestion of labelled transporter with CNBr generated a major radiolabelled fragment of Mr approximately 5800 putatively identified as residues 365-420. Isoelectric focusing of Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase-treated purified labelled tryptic fragment identified two peptides which likely correspond to amino acid residues 360-380 and 381-393. The common region for these radiolabelled peptides is the tenth putative transmembrane helix of the erythrocyte glucose transporter, comprising amino acid residues 369-389. Additional support for this conclusion comes from studies in which [125I]APS-forskolin was photoincorporated into the L-arabinose/H(+)-transport protein of Escherichia coli. Labelling of this transport protein was protected by both cytochalasin B and D-glucose. The region of the erythrocyte glucose transporter thought to be derivatized with IAPS-forskolin contains a tryptophan residue (Trp388) that is conserved in the sequence of the E. coli arabinose-transport protein.  相似文献
