A method is described for extracting proteins and peptides from stained sodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. Coomassie blue and sodium dodecyl sulfate present in stained gel sections are removed to allow subsequent analysis of the peptides (e.g., amino acid analysis or tryptic digestion and fingerprinting). The method is simple, requires no radioisotopes or special equipment, and can be carried out with a minimum of handling of the sample. The process can be used for samples at the nanomole level with recoveries of 90%. 相似文献

A manual Edman technique is described which allows sequential quantitative determination of from 3 to 10 amino terminal residues on quantities of peptides or proteins down to one nanomole. This is achieved by a fast, efficient method of obtaining the anilinothiazolinone or phenylthiohydantoin amino acid, and quantitating by either back hydrolysis and amino acid analysis or by a new, rapid, high resolution, quasi-isocratic, high-pressure liquid chromatographic procedure. The overall method has been extensively tested successfully on both peptides and proteins of known and unknown amino-terminal sequence and the results included here. In addition, a wide variety of applications relevant to primary structure analysis such as sequencing blocked polypeptides, use of denaturing agents as coupling buffers, reduction of protein or peptide losses on consecutive sequencing and peptide mixture analysis are all incorporated in the methodology outlined. 相似文献

A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of nanomole levels of ophthalmic and norophthalmic acid has been described. The procedure is based upon the conversion of amino group to 2,4-dinitrophenyl derivatives and the detection at 420 nm. This method was applied to the determination of the peptides in lens, liver, and brain of several animals. Mean recoveries were 93.6% for ophthalmic acid and 92.3% for norophthalmic acid added to cattle lens homogenate. 相似文献

A method is described for manual Edman degradation at the nanomole level. The method is simple, requiring only two extraction steps which minimize extraction loss, time, and there is no need for a conversion step of the thiazolinones to the thiohydantoins. Two different back hydrolysis procedures are compared and their relative merits discussed. The procedure requires no specialized reagents or equipment other than an amino acid analyzer. 相似文献

Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of low molecular weight DNS-peptides was performed in the presence of 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate and 8 m urea. This procedure enabled an estimation of the molecular weight of peptides at the nanomole level without staining. A linear relationship between molecular weight and mobility was obtained over a molecular weight range of 1,000–12,000, although a few anomalous peptides (e.g., glucagon and insulin) and small peptides of molecular weight less than 1,000 deviated from linearity. The N-terminal amino acid of a peptide can be determined in combination with thin layer chromatography on polyamide sheets. The usefulness of this procedure for checking small amounts of contaminant in an oligopeptide sample was also noted. 相似文献

The sequence of the tryptic peptides of three major species of human leukocyte interferon was determined by microsequencing procedures. The peptides were aligned by comparison with the amino acid sequences predicted by the DNA sequences of recombinants containing leukocyte interferon-coding inserts. In addition, extended NH2-terminal amino acid sequences of two human leukocyte interferons produced in Escherichia coli by recombinant DNA methodology are also reported. This report demonstrates application of microsequencing methodology to low nanomole and subnanomole amounts of proteins and peptides of biological interest. 相似文献

Summary An automated procedure for the precolumn derivatization of enantiomeric amino acid mixtures with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl-5-alanine amide and a liquid chromatographic method for the separation of the derivatives with UV detection are reported. The system described allows to perform routine analyses using microbore columns with a sensitivity at the picomol level. Improvements for the use of this reagent in the protocol of a subtractive Edman degradation procedure of peptides to determine the sequence position of amino acid residues with concomitant identification of their chirality are also described. 相似文献

The determination of the disulfide pairings of SETI-II, a trypsin inhibitor isolated from Sechium edule, is described herein. The inhibitor contains 31 amino acid residues per mol, 6 of which are cysteine. Forty-five nmol (160 microg) of SETI-II was hydrolyzed with 20 microg thermolysin for 48 hr at 45 degrees C, and peptides were separated by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The major products were identified by amino acid composition, Edman degradation, and on the basis of the sequence of the inhibitor. The disulfide bridge pairings and (yields) are: Cys1-Cys4 (79%), Cys2-Cys5 (21%) and Cys3-Cys6 (43%). When the reduced inhibitor was reoxidized with glutathione reduced form (GSH)/glutathione oxidized form (GSSG) at pH 8.5 for 3 hr, full activity was recovered. These data show that disulfide bridge pairing and oxidation can be determined at nanomole levels and that sensitive and quantitative Edman degradation can eliminate the final time- and material-consuming step of disulfide determinations by eliminating the need to purify and cleave each peptide containing a disulfide bridge. 相似文献

1. A method is described that selectively purifies methionine peptides from enzymic digests of a protein. The peptides, after paper electrophoresis, are treated on paper with iodoacetamide at acid pH. This specifically converts methionine residues into their sulphonium salts. When the paper is submitted to electrophoresis at right angles to the original direction, the carbamoylmethylmethionine peptides emerge from an undifferentiated diagonal. 2. Heating at neutral pH converts carbamoylmethylmethionine into homoserine and thereby specifically cleaves the peptides. 3. The effect of the modifications on amino acid composition and sequence analyses of the peptides was studied. 4. When the method was applied to a tryptic digest of S-aminoethyl-chymotrypsinogen A, two peptides were selectively purified that had the expected amino acid sequence. 相似文献

With the aid of DANS-Cl it is possible to detect peptides down to 10?12 g. From electrophoresis runs, such amounts of proteins could be separated with a described electrophoresis apparatus. After tryptic digestion and dansylation the obtained peptides were run in a two dimensional chromatography system on 5 × 5 cm polyamide plates. The solvents were different concentrations of formic acid and benzene: acetic acid mixtures. The results show the reproducibility and specificity of this method for handling nanomole amounts of peptides. 相似文献

The application of 0.1 M quadrol to the microsequence of proteins and the sequence of tryptic peptides. 总被引:67,自引:0,他引:67
In an effort to extend automated Edman degradation to nanomole quantities of protein, the method of sequenator analysis described by Edman and Begg (Edman, P., and Begg, G. (1967), Eur. J. Biochem. 1, 80) was modified to permit long degradations in the absence of carrier proteins. By using an aqueous 0.1 M Quadrol program with limited, combined benezene-ethyl acetate solvent extractions, as well as a change in the delivery system for heptafluorobutyric acid, it was possible to recover and identify the first 30 amino acid residues from a sequenator run on 7 nmol of myoglobin. For 3 nmol of myoglobin, 20 steps could be identified. PTH-amino acids were identified by gas-liquid chromatography and thin-layer chromatography on polyamide sheets. Without using a carrier protein the cup to prevent mechanical losses (Niall, H. D., Jacobs, J. W., Van Rietshoten, J., and Tregear, G. W. (1974), FEBS Lett. 41, 62), the repetitive yield using this program was 93-96%. The same program has been applied successfully to peptides of 14 or more residues with or without modification by Braunitzer's reagent and to a number of larger peptides and proteins including a 216 residue segment of rabbit antibody heavy chain in which a sequence of 35 steps was accomplished on 25 nmol. 相似文献

The techniques previously employed for the extraction and determination of amino acids from different matrices are not necessarily optimal for the determination of the amino sugars. An analytical system is described which is a hybrid between the conventional amino acid analyzer and the liquid chromatographic system for the detection of reducing sugars. The major, naturally occurring amino sugars are separated in about 40 min, with sensitivites lying under the nanomole range, without interference from other co-extracted compounds such as amino acids and sugars. The reagent employed is noncorrosive and stable over long periods of time. The amino sugar analyzer can be readily constructed by simple modification of a conventional phenylketonuria or amino acid analyzer. 相似文献

The analysis of iodinated peptides resulting from chloramine-T (CAT), Iodo-Beads, Iodo-Gen and lactoperoxidase iodination reactions in the preparation of nanomole quantities 125I and 123I labelled tracers is described. Seven different model peptides were evaluated, varying in molecular weight from 294 (LY-dipeptide) to 2518 (obestatin containing 23 amino acid residues). Two different RP-C18 columns were used, each with a different gradient system based on aqueous formic acid and acetonitrile. Electrospray ionization (ESI) ion trap mass spectrometry was used for identification of the chromatographic eluting components of the reaction mixtures, while UV (DAD) served quantitative purposes. Non-, mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-iodinated peptides (respectively NIP, MIP, DIP, 3IP and 4IP) eluted in that order and were well separated from each other. An empirical model was derived. The applicability of this approach was demonstrated by the analysis of different reaction mixtures. 相似文献

A procedure for in situ alkylation of cystine residues on glass fiber prior to protein microsequence analysis 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
A procedure is described which provides high yields of pyridylethylated cysteine during gas-phase sequencing of peptides. The method decreases transfer losses by reducing the number of transfer steps required for reduction, alkylation, prior to sequencing a peptide. Proteins bound to polybrene-coated glass-fiber filters used in a gas-phase sequenator may be reduced, pyridylethylated, and sequenced directly on the filter. Reduction of cystine-containing peptides is performed using the nonnucleophilic reductant, tributylphosphine [U. T. Rüegg and J. Rudinger (1977) in Methods in Enzymology (Hirs, C. H. W., and Timasheff, S. N., Eds.), Vol. 47, pp. 111-116, Academic Press, New York] with concomitant alkylation by 4-vinylpyridine in a buffer soluble in the organic phase. Excess reagents and the buffer are removed by drying the filter and briefly washing with chlorobutane. No N-alkylation is apparent under the conditions described, nor are any amino acid side chains modified. The procedure affords high yields and is particularly useful when subnanomole levels of material must be reduced and alkylated. 相似文献

Conotoxin GI: disulfide bridges, synthesis, and preparation of iodinated derivatives 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The 13 amino acid toxic peptide from the marine snail Conus geographus, conotoxin GI, blocks the acetylcholine receptor at the neuromuscular junction. In this report, we describe a method for analyzing disulfide bonding in nanomole amounts of small cystine-rich peptides. The procedure involves partial reduction and a double-label alkylation of cysteine residues. Using this method, we show that the natural conotoxin GI has a (2-7, 3-13) disulfide configuration. The structure of conotoxin GI has been confirmed by chemical synthesis. The preparation and purification of molecularly homogeneous, iodinated derivatives of this toxin are also described. All derivatives, including the [diiodohistidine,diiodotyrosine]conotoxin GI, retained at least half of the biological activity of unmodified toxin. Since the tetraiodinated toxin, which is greater than 25% by weight iodine, retains considerable toxicity, unmodified histidine and tyrosine residues in conotoxin GI are not crucial for biological activity. 相似文献

Most spider antimicrobial peptides share a common mechanism of membrane permeabilisation and the innate immune systems of the pathogen. In this review, we present recent accounts of the application at the preclinical level that should be tried and the range of bioactivities and their particular structure can be harnessed for molecular engineering applications and in drug design. Structural analyses such as amino acid sequence and circular dichroism are described. Conductance measurements and pharmacological studies of the action on the inner or outer membranes of anti-microbe will reveal more about the mode of action of the antimicrobial peptides of spider. 相似文献

The cellular tumour antigen p53 is implicated in the transformation process. To compare p53 from transformed cells and their normal counterparts in detail, and so to identify any structural differences that might alter p53 function, requires information on the primary structure of the protein. By making use of immunochemical techniques we have been able to purify nanomole amounts of p53. This was sufficient, using high sensitivity automated gas-phase sequencing techniques to determine the amino acid sequence of two tryptic peptides from p53. Their sequences agree completely with the predicted polypeptide sequence derived from a cloned cDNA for p53 mRNA and provide the first data on the amino acid sequence of p53. A combination of the high sensitivity amino acid sequencing procedures used here and cDNA sequence analysis should provide the complete amino acid sequence of p53. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive method for the determination of threonine in rat blood plasma using aldehyde dehydrogenase after oxidation with periodate was developed. By the present method, threonine could be completely discriminated from serine and determined at the nanomole level. The amount of threonine in rat blood plasma obtained by the present method coincided well with the value determined on an amino acid analyzer. 相似文献

As a part of the overall strategy for determining the complete covalent structure of the papain-solubilized portion of the heavy chain of the human histocompatibility antigen HLA-B7, the protein was dissected into various fragments by a combination of partial acid hydrolysis and cyanogen bromide cleavage. After purification by chromatographic procedures, these fragments have been used as a source for tryptic and chymotryptic peptides. Thirty-three major tryptic and twenty-two major chymotryptic peptides were purified in nanomole amounts and their amino acid compositions determined. These peptides account for the whole extent of the polypeptide chain with the exception of the amino-terminal CNBr pentapeptide. They provide the basis for the formal alignment of the acid cleavage and cyanogen bromide fragments of the molecule as well as the source material for the elucidation of the primary structure of the HLA-B7 heavy chain. 相似文献

1. Three very similar proteins, each of approx. 120 amino acid residues but lacking phenylalanine and histidine, were isolated from wheat (Triticum aestivum) flour in sufficient quantities for further structural studies. 2. Each protein, after reduction and carboxymethylation, was cleaved at the three methionine residues with CNBr to give four major peptides, which were isolated. These peptides are suitable for future sequencing studies, as the sums of their amino acid compositions are in good agreement with those of the whole proteins. 3. The N- and C-terminal peptides were identified. 4. Evidence from amino acid analyses, N-terminal amino acids and electrophoretic mobilities of the peptides suggests a high degree of homology between the proteins. Definite differences in C-terminal amino acids and the number of glycine, alanine and arginine residues were found in the C-terminal peptides. 相似文献
