A relatively simple procedure is described for purifying human serum angiotensin-converting enzyme. The enzyme was purified 130,000-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity using affinity chromatography as the principal purification step. The ligand was an immobilized competitive inhibitor, d-cysteinyl-l-proline. A six-carbon spacer arm was satisfactory for trapping the enzyme; 80% of the bound enzyme was eluted with 3 m urea-1.0 m NaCl-0.1 m Tris, pH 8.3. The specific activity was 39 units/mg protein and the molecular weight (155,000), isoelectric point (4.7), kinetic properties, and the effect of various inhibitors are in agreement with published reports. 相似文献

Inhibition of rabbit lung angiotensin I-converting enzyme was studied with two inhibitors that combined tricyclic mimics of a substrate C-terminal dipeptide recognition unit with a 4-phenylbutanoic acid fragment. The overall inhibition constant for [4S-[4 alpha, 7 alpha(R*),12b beta]]-7-[S-(1-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl) amino]-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12b-octahydro-6-oxopyrido[2,1-a] [2] benzazepine-4-carboxylic acid (MDL 27,088) was approximately 4 pM, whereas that for [4R-[4 alpha, 7 alpha(S*), 12b beta]]-7-[S-(1-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl)amino]-3,4,6,7,8, 12b-hexahydro-6-oxo-1H-[1,4]thiazino[3,4-a] [2]benzazepine-4-carboxylic acid (MDL 27,788) was estimated to be 46 pM. The formation of an initial complex of target enzyme and MDL 27,088 and its slower isomerization to a second complex were characterized kinetically. Both compounds appear to be among the most potent inhibitors known for this enzyme. 相似文献

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity (12 units/mg) from bovine lung tissue and from human serum using an affinity gel described previously (Harris et al., (1981) Anal. Biochem. 111, 227-234). The isoelectric point (4.5), molecular weight (145 000), S20,W (8.1), amino acid composition and carbohydrate content of the lung enzyme are all similar to the values obtained for the human serum enzyme. The NH2-terminus of the lung enzyme (Ala) is different from that of the serum enzyme (Tyr) but the COOH-terminal sequences are identical (-Leu-Ser-OH). Pure bovine lung enzyme was reduced and carboxyamidomethylated with iodo (14C1) acetamide to the extent predicted by the number of cysteine residues. Since no radioactivity was incorporated into denatured enzyme that was not reduced, all of the cysteine residues must be in the form of disulfide bonds. Reverse-phase HPLC was used to separate peptides obtained from the lung enzyme after degradation with either trypsin or cyanogen bromide. The number of peptides resolved (42 after trypsin, 31 after cyanogen bromide), were only 20% fewer than the number predicted from the amino acid analysis and therefore the possibility that the converting enzyme (a single polypeptide chain) might be a fused dimer is excluded. 相似文献

Computer programs are available in the software package SAGE to perform a variety of segregation and linkage analyses used by human geneticists. These methods are designed specifically to uncover major gene segregation in pedigree data coming from non-inbred populations. With the aid of a closely linked polymorphic marker, they can detect a locus that contributes as little as 10% to the variation of a quantitative trait in a pedigree sample of several hundred individuals. 相似文献

Human angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene and endurance performance. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Human physical performance is strongly influenced by genetic factors. A variation in the structure of the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been reported in which the insertion (I) variant is associated with lower ACE levels than the deletion (D) gene. We have previously reported that the I variant was associated with improved endurance performance in high-altitude mountaineers and British Army recruits. We now examine this genotype distribution in 91 British Olympic-standard runners (79 Caucasians). DNA was extracted from the buccal cells contained in 10 ml of saline mouthwash donated by the subjects, and the I and D variants of the ACE gene were identified by PCR amplification of the polymorphic region. There was an increasing frequency of the I allele with distance run [0.35, 0.53, and 0.62 for =200 m (n = 20), 400-3,000 m (n = 37), and >/=5,000 m (n = 34), respectively; P = 0.009 for linear trend]. Among 404 Olympic-standard athletes from 19 other mixed sporting disciplines (in which endurance performance was not necessarily a key factor), the I allele did not differ significantly from that found in control subjects: 0.50 vs. 0.49 (P = 0.526). These results support a positive association of the I allele with elite endurance performance. 相似文献

The hypothesis of a genetic control of plasma angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) level has been suggested both by segregation analysis and by the identification of an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the ACE gene, a polymorphism contributing much to the variability of ACE level. To elucidate whether the I/D polymorphism was directly involved in the genetic regulation, plasma ACE activity and genotype for the I/D polymorphism were both measured in a sample of 98 healthy nuclear families. The pattern of familial correlations of ACE level was compatible with a zero correlation between spouses and equal parent-offspring and sib-sib correlations (.24 +/- .04). A segregation analysis indicated that this familial resemblance could be entirely explained by the transmission of a codominant major gene. The I/D polymorphism was associated with marked differences of ACE levels, although these differences were less pronounced than those observed in the segregation analysis. After adjustment for the polymorphism effects, the residual heritability (.280 +/- .096) was significant. Finally, a combined segregation and linkage analysis provided evidence that the major-gene effect was due to a variant of the ACE gene, in strong linkage disequilibrium with the I/D polymorphism. The marker allele I appeared always associated with the major-gene allele s characterized by lower ACE levels. The frequency of allele I was .431 +/- .025, and that of major allele s was .557 +/- .041. The major gene had codominant effects equal to 1.3 residual SDs and accounted for 44% of the total variability of ACE level, as compared with 28% for the I/D polymorphism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (peptidyl dipeptide hydrolase, EC 3.4.15.1) was solubilized from the membrane fraction of human lung using trypsin treatment and purfied using columns of DE 52-cellulose, hydroxyapatite and Sephadex G-200. The purified enzyme was shown to convert angiotensin I to angiotensin II and also to inactivate bradykinin. The specific activity of the enzyme was 9.5 units/mg protein for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH and 0.665 mumol/min per mg protein for angiotensin I. The enzymic activity obtained after trypsin treatment (1 mg/200 mg protein) for 2 h could be divided into three components: (i) an enzyme of molecular weight 290 000 (peak I), (ii) an enzyme of molecular weight 180 000 (peak II) and (iii) an enzyme of molecular weight 98 000 (peak III), by columns of DE 52-cellulose and Sephadex G-200. Km values of peak I, II and III fraction for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH were identical at 1.1 mM. pH optimum of the enzyme was 8.3 for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH. 相似文献

The two homologous domains of human angiotensin I-converting enzyme are both catalytically active. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Molecular cloning of human endothelial angiotensin I-converting enzyme (kininase II; EC 3.4.15.1) (ACE) has recently shown that the enzyme contains two large homologous domains (called here the N and C domains), each bearing a putative active site, identified by sequence comparisons with the active sites of other zinc metallopeptidases. However, the previous experiments with zinc or competitive ACE inhibitors suggested a single active site in ACE. To establish whether both domains of ACE are enzymatically active, a series of ACE mutants, each containing only one intact domain, were constructed by deletion or point mutations of putative critical residues of the other domain, and expressed in heterologous Chinese hamster ovary cells. Both domains are enzymatically active and cleave the C-terminal dipeptide of hippuryl-His-Leu or angiotensin I. Moreover, both domains have an absolute zinc requirement for activity, are activated by chloride and are sensitive to competitive ACE inhibitors, and appear to function independently. However, the two domains display different catalytic constants and different patterns of chloride activation. At high chloride concentrations, the C domain hydrolyzes the two substrates tested faster than does the N domain. His-361,365 and His-959,963 are established as essential residues in the N and C domains, respectively, most likely involved in zinc binding, and Glu-362 in the N domain and Glu-960 in the C domain are essential catalytic residues. These observations provide strong evidence that ACE possesses two independent catalytic domains and suggest that they may have different functions. 相似文献

The endothelial angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE; EC 3.4.15.1) has recently been shown to contain two large homologous domains (called here the N and C domains), each being a zinc-dependent dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase. To further characterize the two active sites of ACE, we have investigated their interaction with four competitive ACE inhibitors, which are all potent antihypertensive drugs. The binding of [3H] trandolaprilat to the two active sites was examined using the wild-type ACE and four ACE mutants each containing only one intact domain, the other domain being either deleted or inactivated by point mutation of the zinc-coordinating histidines. In contrast with all the previous studies, which suggested the presence of a single high affinity inhibitor binding site in ACE, the present study shows that both the N and C domains of ACE contain a high affinity inhibitor binding site (KD = 3 and 1 X 10(-10) M, respectively, at pH 7.5, 4 degrees C, and 100 mM NaCl). Chloride stabilizes the enzyme-inhibitor complex for each domain primarily by slowing its dissociation rate, as the k-1 values of the N and C domains are markedly decreased (about 30- and 1100-fold, respectively) by 300 mM NaCl. At high chloride concentrations, the chloride effect is much greater for the C domain than for the N domain resulting in a higher affinity of this inhibitor for the C domain. In addition, the inhibitory potency of captopril (C), enalaprilat (E), and lisinopril (L) for each domain was assayed by hydrolysis of Hip-His-Leu. Their Ki values for the two domains are all within the nanomolar range, indicating that they are all highly potent inhibitors for both domains. However, their relative potencies are different for the C domain (L greater than E greater than C) and the N domain (C greater than E greater than L). The different inhibitor binding properties of the two domains observed in the present study provide strong evidence for the presence of structural differences between the two active sites of ACE. 相似文献

Polymerase chain amplification experiments indicate that the germinal specific promoter of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) is completely extinguished in somatic tissues. Despite this very strict specificity of expression, the germinal ACE promoter is active in transient transfection experiments in two somatic cell lines and one cell line of germinal origin. The analysis of the promoter shows the existence two regulatory elements within the first 350 bp: a proximal positive element and a distal negative element. 相似文献

Studies investigating the genetic control of total serum IgE levels are of major importance in understanding basic pathophysiologic mechanisms in atopy and asthma, since IgE levels predict onset and correlate with the clinical expression of these disorders. Previous analysis of data from 92 families, ascertained through a parent with asthma, showed evidence for recessive inheritance of high IgE levels with linkage to chromosome 5q. Since there was significant residual familial correlation in the one-locus segregation analysis, two-locus segregation and linkage analyses were performed. Segregation analyses provided evidence for a second major locus unlinked to the locus on 5q. Utilization of this two-locus model corroborates the previous evidence for linkage between this trait and markers on 5q31-q33. The LODs for the most informative marker D5S436 increased from 3.00 at 10% recombination to 4.67 at 9% recombination, when the two-locus model was used. Additional linkage studies are needed to map this second locus. These results demonstrate the importance of performing multilocus segregation and linkage analyses for quantitative traits that are related to the phenotype of a complex disorder. This approach has given further insight into the genetics of allergy and asthma by providing evidence for a two-locus model. 相似文献

Inhibition of bovine lung and testicular angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) by some well-known ACE inhibitors (lisinopril, captopril, enalapril), new substances (Nalpha-carboxyalkyl dipeptides PP-09, PP-35, and PP-36), and phosphoramidon was investigated using Cbz-Phe-His-Leu and FA-Phe-Phe-Arg (C-terminal analogs of angiotensin I and bradykinin, respectively) as the substrates. The somatic (two domains) and testicular (single domain) isoenzymes demonstrated different kinetic parameters for hydrolysis of these substrates. All of the inhibitors were competitive inhibitors of both ACE isoforms, and the Ki values were substrate-independent. The relative potencies of the inhibitors for both enzymes were: lisinopril > captopril > PP-09 > enalapril > PP-36 > PP-35 > phosphoramidon. The inhibition efficiency of PP-09 was comparable with those of the well-known ACE inhibitors. Captopril was more effectively bound to the somatic ACE (Ki = 0.5 nM) than to the testicular isoform (Ki = 6.5 nM). 相似文献

Latent production of angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitors from buckwheat protein. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The latent production of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors from tartary buckwheat (BW) was investigated, and the peptides responsible for ACE inhibition characterized. Intact buckwheat was found to exhibit ACE inhibitory activity having an IC50 value of 3.0 mg/ml. The activity of the protein fraction (IC50: 0.36 mg protein/ml) was not enhanced by pepsin treatment. Pepsin, followed by chymotrypsin and trypsin hydrolysis, resulted in a significant increase in the ACE inhibitory activity (IC50: 0.14 mg protein/ml). The rutin contained in the buckwheat did not exhibit any ACE inhibition. A single oral administration of BW digest lowered the systolic blood pressure of a spontaneously hypertensive rat. Thus, BW proteins offer a potential resource for producing ACE inhibitory peptides during the digestion process. From the di-/tri-peptide fraction (DTPF) of the BW digest, inhibitory peptides were identified. The magnitude (%) of the total ACE inhibitory contribution of each identified peptide, relative to the overall inhibition of the DTPF, was about 41%. 相似文献

Peptide inhibitors for angiotensin I-converting enzyme from thermolysin digest of dried bonito. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Dried bonito (Katsuobusi), a Japanese traditional seasoning made of bonito muscle was hydrolyzed by various proteases and the inhibitory activity of the hydrolyzates for angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) [EC 3.4.15.1] was measured. Among the digests, thermolysin digest showed the most potent inhibitory activity. Eight inhibitory peptides were isolated from the digest using HPLC. The amino acid sequences of inhibitory peptides were Ile-Lys-Pro-Leu-Asn-Tyr, Ile-Val-Gly-Arg-Pro-Arg-His-Gln-Gly, Ile-Trp-His-His-Thr, Ala-Leu-Pro-His-Ala, Phe-Gln-Pro, Leu-Lys-Pro-Asn-Met, Ile-Tyr, and Asp-Tyr-Gly-Leu-Tyr-Pro. By searching for the sequence homology in many proteins, four of them were found in the primary structure of actin. Asp-Met-Ile-Pro-Ala-Gln-Lys was obtained from the boiling water extract of dried bonito and this peptide was found in the primary structure of creatine kinase. Fragments of these peptides were prepared by further enzymatic digestion or chemical synthesis and their ACE-inhibitory activities were measured. Among them, Ile-Lys-Pro, Ile-Trp, Leu-Lys-Pro, and Leu-Tyr-Pro had higher inhibitory activity than their parental peptides. Ile-Lys-Pro suppressed the hypertensive activity of angiotensin I. 相似文献

We purified angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) from pig and human lung and plasma for comparison of some physicochemical properties between the endothelial membrane-bound form and the soluble form of the enzyme. After affinity chromatography on Sepharose CL-4B/lisinopril, gel-filtration HPLC on Superose 12 achieved homogeneity for both forms as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Whatever the source of ACE, the molecular weight was 300 +/- 40 kDa after calibration of Superose 12 with standard globular proteins and 172 +/- 4 kDa by SDS-PAGE, with or without reduction, a result suggesting interactions between the glycopolypeptide chain and the chromatographic gel possibly related to the overall shape and sugar content of the enzyme. Ion-exchange HPLC analysis on TSK-DEAE showed that the membrane-bound and soluble forms of ACE are not isoenzymes, although isoelectrofocusing did show that the isoelectric point of soluble ACE was lower than those of tissue ACE, suggesting a different glycosylation. No significant difference between porcine and human ACE appeared. HPLC methods seem to be of particular interest for the purification of ACE with a high yield and for the analysis of its putative differently glycosylated isoforms. 相似文献

Two genetically controlled polymorphic systems of amylase enzymes are described in sera from Friesian, Jersey, Guernsey, Hereford, Ayrshire and Charolais cattle. One of these Ami has been described previously and is controlled by two codominant alleles in British cattle, AmI B and AmI C . Evidence presented here suggests that it could be a gamma.amylase. The other enzyme which is described here for the first time has many of the properties of an alpha amylase. It is also polymorphic and controlled by two codominant alleles AmII A and AmII B . AmII A is only present in low frequency. The inheritance of both enzyme systems has been studied in 419 families. 相似文献

1. Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (EC 3.4.15.1) has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from chicken lung by using a facile two-step protocol which included affinity chromatography on Sepharose-bound captopril. 2. Captopril was a potent inhibitor of chicken lung angiotensin I-converting enzyme with Ki values of 2.0 nmol/l and 1.6 nmol/l for detergent-extracted and trypsin-extracted angiotensin I-converting enzymes, respectively. 3. Molecular weight comparison of trypsin-extracted (M(r)270,000) and detergent-extracted (M(r)690,000) angiotensin I-converting enzyme indicated that membrane-binding sequence contributed to a large extent to the enzyme molecule. 4. Kinetic properties of both forms of the enzyme suggested that the membrane-bound sequence contributed to an increase of the enzyme-substrate affinity. 相似文献

Approximately 50-fold purification of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (Peptidyldipeptide hydrolase, EC 3.4.15.1) from rabbit lung was achieved by affinity chromatography using the synthetic substrate Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH. The specific activity of the enzyme was increased from 0.044 units/mg protein to 1.911 units/mg protein for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH and from 0.33 nmol/min per mg protein to 13.8 nmol/min per mg protein for angiotensin I. 相似文献
