The procedure for isolation of the aminoacyl-tRNA-synthetase complex from rabbit liver based on the affinity chromatography on heparin- and tRNA-Sepharose has been developed. The complex has a Mr of about 1100 kD and is made up of 10 polypeptides, eight of which are aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase. The complex stability was studied under various conditions. The data obtained are discussed in terms of the involvement of hydrophobic domains of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases in the stabilization of the complex. 相似文献

The copper (II) complex [Cu(Itpy)(2)](ClO(4))(2) (1), (Itpy=imidazole terpyridine) has been synthesized and structurally characterized. Crystal structure of the complex shows the complex to be a monomeric copper (II) species with two Itpy ligands coordinated to the metal ion to give a six coordinate complex. The complex has a distorted octahedral geometry with axial elongation. Variable temperature crystal structure data shows dynamic nature of the Jahn-Teller distortion. The complex is an avid DNA binder with a binding constant of 4.26+/-0.20x10(3)M(-1). Observed changes in the viscosity and circular dichroic spectrum of calf thymus DNA solution in the presence of complex 1 suggests intercalative binding of complex 1 to DNA. The complex cleaves supercoiled pBR322 DNA oxidatively in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. 相似文献

The cytoplasmic domain of the rosette terminal complex has been imaged in situ in patches of plasma membrane isolated from tobacco BY-2 protoplasts. By partially extracting the plasma membrane lipids, cellulose microfibrils were observed through the plasma membrane. Rosette terminal complexes were identified on the basis of their association with the ends of these cellulose microfibrils. The cytoplasmic domain of the rosette terminal complex has been shown to be hexagonal in shape and has been measured to be 45-50 nm in diameter and 30-35 nm tall. These findings demonstrate that the terminal complex does indeed have a substantial cytoplasmic component, and that the hexagonal array observed in the lipid bilayer by freeze fracture is actually only a small part of the overall complex. These findings will allow better modeling of the terminal complex and may facilitate predictions of how many proteins are associated with the rosette terminal complex in vivo. 相似文献

A factor (‘E’) has been identified which stabilizes an endogenous DNA-synthesizing complex involving DNA polymerase I. The complex is separated from free DNA polymerase by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The factor will reform the complex after it has been dissociated and will convert a preparation of DNA polymerase I to complex. The factor and the DNA-synthesizing complex both appear to be localized at the cell membrane. 相似文献

The redox state of two SH-groups per enzyme subunit has been shown to control the cooperative properties of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. These thiols oxidized, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase does not exhibit any cooperative properties. The enzyme reduction leads to subunit interactions. It has been found that the most effective agent reducing the alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase thiols essential for the cooperativity is dihydrolipoate, one of the intermediates of the overall alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase reaction. The possibility of changing the properties of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase in the multienzyme complex under the conditions when the lipoic acid integrated into the complex is reduced, has been investigated. Thus, incubation of the alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex with NADH has been found to induce the conversion from the non-cooperative form to the cooperative one, presumably through the reduction of lipoic acid bound to the complex in the reaction catalyzed by lipoyl dehydrogenase, the third component of the complex. 相似文献

Two main entry points for electrons into the mitochondrial respiratory chain are NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) and succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex II). Metabolic regulation of these two respiratory complexes is not understood in detail. It has been suggested that the Krebs cycle metabolic intermediate oxaloacetate (OAA) inhibits complex II in vivo, whereas complex I undergoes a reversible active/de-active transition. In normoxic and anoxic hearts it has been shown that the proportion of complex I in the active and de-active states is different suggesting a possible mode of regulation of the enzyme by oxygen concentration. In the current studies rapid isolation of mitochondrial membranes in a state that preserves the activity of both complex I and complex II has been achieved using Langendorff perfused rat hearts. The findings indicate that the state of activation of complex I is controlled by the oxygen saturation in the perfusate. In addition, these studies show that complex II is fully active in the mitochondrion and not inhibited by OAA regardless of the oxygen concentration. 相似文献

A water-soluble complex containing ergosterol together with a component of yeast has been isolated. The complex can be isolated from commercial yeast extract to which ergosterol has been added or directly from whole yeast cells. The complexing component has the properties of a large polysaccharide and the binding between the sterol and the polysaccharide appears to be noncovalent. The complex is easily prepared and is stable in aqueous solution; ergosterol in this solution is metabolically available to yeast cells to which it is added. 相似文献

The H+-ATPase complex has been isolated from the membranes of the anaerobic bacterium Lactobacillus casei by two independent methods. 1. The crossed-immunoelectrophoresis of the 14C-labelled ATPase complex against antibodies to a highly purified soluble ATPase has been used. The subunit composition of the complex has been established by autoradiography. The soluble part of L. casei ATPase, in contrast to coupling factor F1-ATPases of aerobic bacteria, chloroplasts and mitochondria which include two kinds of large subunit (alpha and beta), consists of one kind of large subunit with a molecular mass of 43 kDa. Moreover, a minor polypeptide of 25 kDa has been found in the soluble ATPase. Factor F0 of L. casei ATPase complex consists of a 16-kDa subunit and two subunits with molecular masses less than 14 kDa. 2. A dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive ATPase complex has been isolated from L. casei membranes by treating them with a mixture of octyl glucoside and sodium cholate. The complex, purified by centrifugation on a sucrose density gradient, contains the main subunits with molecular masses of 43 kDa, 25 kDa and 16 kDa and a dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding subunit with a molecular mass less than 14 kDa. 相似文献

A new complex [Pt(NH3)2(ddtc)]NO3.2H2O as a 1:1 electrolyte has been prepared. This was characterized by spectroscopic methods. The electronic absorption spectrum of this complex in water suggests that it has a square planar geometry. The infrared, 1H NMR and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies suggest the bonding of ammonia molecules and diethyldithiocarbamate as bidentate ligand to platinum(II) in this complex. The 50% inhibition value of this complex against P388 lymphocytic leukemia cells is comparable with cisplatin. This complex interacts with calf thymus DNA by coordinate covalent bond. 相似文献

A new Cr(III) complex with the empirical formula [Cr(Schiff base) (H(2)O)(2)]ClO(4), where the Schiff base is 2, 3-bis?[(2-hydroxy-4-diethylamino) (phenyl) (methylene)]amino?2-butenedinitrile has been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. Binding of this complex to DNA has been studied using UV-visible spectroscopy. The complex has been found to bind to the major groove of DNA with a binding constant, K = (1.3 +/- 0.2) x 10(3) M(-1). The induced CD spectrum of the complex in the presence of DNA is also indicative of major groove binding. Gel electrophoresis of plasmid DNA in the presence of the complex shows that the complex brings about nicking of the DNA. 相似文献

The protein-polysaccharide complex, isolated from group B N. meningitidis, is a variant of vaccine for the prophylaxis of group B N. meningitidis infection. In this investigation the influence of the complex of the physical properties of aluminium hydroxide gels, the amount of gel, pH and the duration of sorption on the process of sorption has been studied. Aluminium hydroxide has been shown to produce a stimulating effect on the response of mice to the polysaccharide and protein contained in the complex after immunization made in two injections. Gels with a smaller particle size have been found to possess greater adjuvant activity, as well as greater absorbing activity. The immunological activity of the complex, adsorbed ex tempore, has proved to be no different from that of the complex adsorbed in an hour. 相似文献

A new chiral amino acid Schiff base ligand (Salarg) and its metal complex (Mn-Salarg) have been synthesized using l-Arginine, a naturally occurring chiral diamine with two kinds of asymmetric α-, ε-NH2 groups. This new Salarg-ligand and Mn-Salarg complex are characterized with the help of ultraviolet, fluorescence and infrared spectroscopy. Their crystal systems are determined by X-ray powder diffraction method. The elemental analysis has been carried out by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). The presence and percentage of metal in the complex have been detected and estimated by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy. Circular dichroism spectroscopy has revealed the chiral nature of the Salarg-ligand and its metal complex. Furthermore, a comparative study of this new chiral Salarg-ligand and its complex has been made with the well known achiral Salen ligand and its metal complex (Mn-Salen). 相似文献

A detergent-solubilized, three-subunit-containing cytochrome bc1 complex, isolated from the photosynthetic bacterium R. rubrum, has been shown to be highly sensitive to stigmatellin, myxothiazol, antimycin A and UHDBT, four specific inhibitors of these complexes. Oxidation-reduction titrations have allowed the determination of Em values for all the electron-carrying prosthetic groups in the complex. Antimycin A has been shown to produce a red shift in the alpha-band absorbance maximum of one of the cytochrome b hemes in the complex and stigmatellin has been shown to alter both the Em and EPR g-values of the Rieske iron-sulfur protein in the complex. Western blots have revealed antigenic similarities between the cytochrome subunits of the R. rubrum complex and those of the related photosynthetic bacteria, Rb. capsulatus and Rb. sphaeroides. The R. rubrum complex has been incorporated into liposomes. These liposomes exhibit respiratory control and are able to couple electron transfer from quinol to cytochrome c to proton translocation across the liposome membrane in a manner consistent with a Q-cycle mechanism. It can thus be concluded that neither electron transport nor coupled proton translocation by the cytochrome bc1 complex requires more than three subunits in R. rubrum. 相似文献

Physicochemical, microbial and pharmacological studies on Fe (III)--Tamoxifen complex have been carried out in solid and aqueous phases. On the basis of elemental analysis, polarographic studies, amperometric titrations and IR spectral studies the probable formula for the complex has been worked out to be 1:1, Fe(III)--Tamoxifen. A tentative structure has been suggested to the complex. The metal ligand interaction has been studied using polarographic method at 27 degrees +/- 1 degree C and at ionic strength of mu = 1.0 (KCl). Microbial studies on the complex was carried out against various pathogenic bacteria and fungi using Raper's method. Mouse sarcoma cell line 180 and Balb/C mice were used for the anticancer screening of solid complex, in vitro and in vivo, respectively. The results of microbial and pharmacological studies with the M:Drug complex revealed that the complex is more potent as compared to the pure drug as regards to its anticancer activity. As such Fe (III) Tamoxifen complex may be recommended to the therapeutic experts for its possible use as more potent anticancer drug. 相似文献

The Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has roles in the intra-S checkpoint, homologous recombination, non-homologous end joining, meiotic recombination, telomere maintenance and the suppression of gross chromosomal rearrangements (GCRs). The discovery of mutations in the genes encoding the human homologues of two MRX subunits that underlie the chromosome fragility syndromes, Ataxia telangiectasia-like disorder and Nijmegen breakage syndrome suggest that the MRX complex also functions in suppression of GCRs in human cells. Previously, we demonstrated that the deletion mutations in each of the MRX genes increased the rate of GCRs up to 1000-fold compared to wild-type rates. However, it has not been clear which molecular function of the MRX complex is important for suppression of GCRs. Here, we present evidence that at least three different activities of the MRX complex are important for suppression of GCRs. These include the nuclease activity of Mre11, an activity related to MRX complex formation and another activity that has a close link with the telomere maintenance function of the MRX complex. An activity related to MRX complex formation is especially important for the suppression of translocation type of GCRs. However, the non-homologous end joining function of MRX complex does not appear to participate in the suppression of GCRs. 相似文献

The neutral mononuclear copper complex with the quinolone antibacterial drug N-propyl-protected norfloxacin, Hpr-norfloxacin, in the presence of the nitrogen donor heterocyclic ligand 2,2'-bipyridine has been prepared and characterized. The crystal structure of (chloro)(2,2'-bipyridine)(pr-norfloxacinato)copper(II), 1, has been determined and refined with X-ray crystallography. X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (=EPR) spectroscopy at liquid helium temperatures from powdered samples indicates the presence of dimeric units in consistency with the crystal structure. In aqueous solutions of 1 the EPR behavior indicates mixture of dimeric and monomeric species. The antimicrobial activity of the complex has been tested on three different microorganisms and the best inhibition (MIC=0.25mugmL(-1)) has been exhibited against Escherichia coli. The study of the interaction of the complex with calf-thymus DNA has been performed with diverse spectroscopic techniques and has shown that complex 1 is bound to calf-thymus DNA by the intercalative mode. Potential anticancer cytostatic and cytotoxic effects of complex 1 on human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 and human chronic myelogenous leukemia K562 cell lines have been investigated. Complex 1 shows an increased antiproliferative and necrotic effect on both HL-60 and K562 human leukemia cells in comparison to the free pr-norfloxacin. 相似文献

On the basis of the analysis of the data on adsorption of glycolytic enzymes to structural proteins of skeletal muscles and to the erythrocyte membranes, the data on enzyme-enzyme interactions and the data on the regulation of activity of glycolytic enzymes by cellular metabolites, the structure of the glycolytic enzymes complex adsorbed to a biological support has been proposed. The key role in the formation of multienzyme complex belongs to 6-phosphofructokinase. The enzyme molecule has two association sites, one of which provides the fixation of 6-phosphofructokinase on the support and another is saturated by fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase. The multienzyme complex contains one tetrameric molecule of 6-phosphofructokinase and two molecules of each of other glycolytic enzymes. Hexokinase is not a part of the complex. The molecular mass of the multienzyme complex is about 2.6 X 10(6) daltons. The multienzyme complex has symmetry axis of second order. The formation of the multienzyme complex leads to the compartmentation of glycolytic process. The problem of integration of physico-chemical mechanisms of enzyme activity regulation (allosteric, dissociative and adsorptive mechanisms) is discussed. 相似文献
