The possible insecticide resistance mechanisms of four Malaysian field-collected strains of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (Linnaeus) (Dictyoptera: Blattellidae), were characterized with biochemical assays and native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Elevated esterase activity (at low to moderate frequency) and altered acetylcholinesterase (low frequency) were detected in all field strains, while elevated glutathione S-transferase levels were present in only two strains. Seven esterase bands were separated by native PAGE; a greater intensity occurred in three bands in the resistant strains compared to the susceptible strain. Inhibition studies using specific inhibitors on polyacrylamide gels suggested that the slowest of these three esterases is a cholinesterase, while the other two are carboxylesterases with a preference for beta- over alpha-naphthyl acetate.  相似文献

Analysis of serum proteins by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is difficult because albumin is abundant in serum and interferes with the resolution of other proteins, especially alpha-antitrypsin which has mobility that is very similar to that of albumin. We present here a method in which serum proteins are separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using stacking gels containing Blue Sepharose CL-6B, which has a high affinity for albumin, lipoproteins, kinases, and pyridine-nucleotide-dependent oxidoreductases. During electrophoresis, proteins that bind to Blue Sepharose CL-6B stay in the stacking gel and do not migrate into the separating gel. As a consequence, certain proteins, including alpha(1)-antitrypsin, can be detected as clear bands. This method overcomes the requirement for fractionation of serum samples prior to electrophoresis to remove albumin and allows the simultaneous analysis of many samples.  相似文献

A new common variant (M1) of alpha 1 antitrypsin was detected by isoelectric focusing of serum in a pH gradient of 3.5-5.0 in polyacrylamide gels. The variant can be clearly distinguished from the common M type only when alpha 1 antitrypsin M is present in the same serum. It cannot be recognized on starch gel electrophoresis. The gene frequency in a population sample of United States whites was .09.  相似文献

The esterase profile of a lipase from Candida cylindracea   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
A commercial preparation of a lipase produced by Candida cylindracea catalysed the hydrolysis of both long- and short-chain esters of p-nitrophenol. Six major bands of hydrolytic activity to alpha-naphthyl acetate were detected on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and two on isoelectric focusing. The esterase activity fractionated into two major peaks of activity on ion-exchange chromatography and into several peaks of activity on hydrophobic interaction chromatography. These esterase activities showed different substrate specificities to p-nitrophenyl esters, tributyrin and cetyl palmitate.  相似文献

Sera from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and those obtained from normal subjects are indistinguishable by regular 5% or 7% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, 11 out of 15 MS sera examined by gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed three distinct protein bands. None of the sera obtained from 10 normal subjects showed the characteristic protein patterns when they were examined by gradient gel electrophoresis. Similar results were obtained with de-albumin serum samples or with serum proteins precipitable at 50% ammonium sulfate saturation. These three proteins have now been purified to homogeneity by preparative gradient gel electrophoresis. Molecular weights of these proteins were estimated from gradient gel electrophoresis as 398,000, 363,000, and 302,000 daltons, respectively.This work was presented at the Tenth Annual Meeting of American Society for Neurochemistry on March 12, 1979, in Charleston, South Carolina.  相似文献

A procedure is described for the partial purification and biological assay of a lymphokine, osteoclast-activating factor, in samples of serum. This procedure involves two steps of ultra-filtration of samples, followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and bioassay of fractions eluted from the gels. The procedure effectively discriminates between osteoclast-activating factor and other agents with similar biological activities (parathyroid hormone, prostaglandin E2, and 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3), when each agent is added to normal human serum. Using this procedure as a specific assay for osteoclast-activating factor, serum from normal individuals and myeloma patients was examined. The activity was detected in 11 of 23 myeloma sera but in none of 12 normal sera.  相似文献

Sera from bisalbuminemic chicken-turkey hybrids contain two albumins in equal amounts. These are observed as inherited electrophoretic variants and originate from the respective chicken and turkey parents. Sera from the hybrid birds served as a model system by which fractionating and identification procedures for evaluating serum albumin variants were compared.

The two albumins in the hybrid were isolated with preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and starch block preparative electrophoresis. Isoelectric focusing of the hybrid albumins resulted in the isolation of the turkey albumin. Interference of ampholinea prevented the complete isolation of the chicken albumin.

The two albumins in the hybrid have identical molecular weights and cannot be identified by sedimentation coefficient, gel filtration behavior, or sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Because of the close relatedness the chicken and turkey albumins in the hybrid cross reacted with rabbit anti-hybrid serum as well as with rabbit anti-chicken and anti-turkey sera.  相似文献

Lipolytic enzymes subjected to nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were electrophoretically transferred under nondenaturing conditions onto a solid-state matrix. Electrotransfer permitted the visualization of hydrolytic activity to the long-chain water insoluble substrate alpha-naphthyl palmitate. Four commercial preparations: a lipase from Candida cylindracea, an esterase from porcine liver, a lipase from Pseudomonas sp., and a cholesterol esterase from Pseudomonas fluorescens were examined.  相似文献

An Examination of Corynebacterium spp. by Gel Electrophoresis   总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0  
S ummary . The cell free extracts of 24 organisms of the genus Corynebacterium were examined by starch gel electrophoresis for esterase, catalase and peroxidase activity. The protein components of eleven of these extracts were also detected after electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The results indicate a separation of the members of the genus into distinct subgroups comparable to those obtained by grouping strains according to habitat.  相似文献

A previously unrecognized esterase from the sera of the appropriate strains of the rat Rattus norvegicus was revealed by a discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic technique. This esterase migrated in the albumin region, whereas a previously known major albumin esterase controlled by the Es-2 locus migrated in the postalbumin region when the method was used. The new albumin esterase component which separated from the Es-2 esterase was identified as the product of the Es-1b gene. The new albumin esterase was not detectable in the sera of sexually mature males of the appropriate genotype, because the activity level of this esterase was influenced by sex hormones, especially androgen.  相似文献

We describe a simple immunochemical technique for the detection of specific antigens by antibody binding in polyacrylamide gels. Proteins are solubilized in sodium dodecyl sulfate and separated by electrophoresis in SDS-slab gels. Following fixation and removal of SDS, gel strips are incubated with normal or immune sera. After washing out unbound antibody, the gel strips are either fixed and stained with Coomassie blue or exposed to anti-immunoglobulin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. The region(s) of antibody-antigen binding are determined from densitometric scans of the Coomassie blue-stained gels versus controls or by treatment of the gels with diaminobenzadine to localize the peroxidase. We have used this technique successfully with antibodies against fibroblast myosin, bovine serum albumin, goat immunogolbulin, the 220,000-dalton fibroblast cell-surface protein, and chicken gizzard filamin. Lectin-binding proteins can also be detected by substituting lectins for the immunoglobulins.  相似文献

The polymorphism of bovine serum amylase, which is controlled by the Ami locus, has previously only been demonstrated by starch gel electrophoresis. The addition of maltose to starch gels has been demonstrated to inhibit any subsequent separation of the Ami isozymes by starch gel electrophoresis. When electrophoresis was conducted in a support medium in the absence of starch no polymorphic variation was detected amongst samples from animals of different Ami phenotypes. The addition of starch to agarose gels has been shown to facilitate the subsequent detection of the Ami polymorphism by agarose/starch gel electrophoresis. The electrophoretic resolution of the Ami isozymes has been demonstrated to depend upon differences in affinity for starch rather than differences in net charge. The starch gel electrophoretic separation of the Ami isozymes is. therefore, another example of affinity electrophoresis. All the Ami amylases have been shown to share a common isoelectric point of pH 3.5.  相似文献

Changes in esterase patterns in hybrids between Drosophila virilis stocks differing in the electrophoretic mobilities of certain esterase fractions have been studied by means of starch and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It has been established that parental esterases are expressed synchronously during the period of the end of embryogenesis to the beginning of first instar larvae. This period coincides with the biochemically detected increase in esterase activity.  相似文献

Summary Esterases of the adrenal medulla have been studied histochemically using alpha-naphthyl acetate and butyrate as substrates, Blue RR Salt as a coupler and eserine and E, 600 as inhibitors. Three types of esterase activity were thus demonstrated: (1) cholinesterase activity in the nerve fibres, ganglion cells and secretory medullary cells; (2) eserine resistant but E. 600 sensitive esterase activity in the ganglion cells and secretory cells; (3) E. 600 resistant activity in strongly positive, unidentified cells scattered in the medulla. The histochemical picture was essentially similar in sections of formalin-fixed tissue and in fresh sections subjected to the voltage gradient employed for electrophoretic separation of esterases. It is concluded that esterases histochemically demonstrable in sections are desmo-enzymes and at least to a major part different from the lyo-enzymes which can be separated by starch gel electrophoresis.With 6 Figures in the Text  相似文献

We established the presence of nonspecific esterases in the Kurloff cell (KC) by cytochemical methods at both light and electron microscope levels. Acid alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) activities were localized on the external face of the plasma membrane and on the external surface of the membrane surrounding the Kurloff body. Different cytosoluble KC extracts were obtained from purified splenic KC suspensions. About 18 isoenzymes were observed by isoelectric focusing, whereas after polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis in native conditions almost all activity was observed on a few broad bands with very high apparent molecular weights, suggesting their oligomeric arrangement. After a first aqueous extraction step which released only a few isoenzymes, the remaining pellet was subjected to Triton X-100. This released almost all the isoenzymes observed after direct Triton X-100 extraction. These data suggest that almost all the KC esterases are membrane-bound enzymes, in agreement with the subcellular enzyme distribution. Different substrates were also used to characterize the different specificities of the KC isoesterases. Weak activity was detected with alpha-naphthyl butyrate by light cytochemistry, which essentially corresponded, on zymograms, to the membrane-bound esterase activity.  相似文献

Our objective was to characterize and purify the corticosteroid-binding proteins in hamster pregnancy serum. When [3H]cortisol-labeled pregnancy and proestrous serum were subjected to native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a single peak of specific steroid-binding activity was detected in each, with identical electrophoretic mobility. The steroid-binding affinity (Ka = 1.07.10(8) M-1 for cortisol) is typical of corticosteroid-binding globulin from other species, but the steroid-binding specificity (cortisol greater than testosterone greater than progesterone) is not. An ultraviolet photoaffinity-labeling protocol was developed using 17 beta-hydroxy-4,6-[1,2-3H]androstadiene-3-one ([3H]androstadienolone), permitting analysis of ultraviolet photoaffinity-labeled proestrous and pregnancy serum by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography. Both sera contained the same labeled protein species. Corticosteroid-binding globulin was purified from pregnancy serum by DEAE-cellulose chromatography followed by steroid affinity chromatography on androstadienolone-17 beta-hemisuccinate-ethylenediamine-AffiGel 10. The purified protein (Mr = 62,250; pI = 3.95; n = 1; Stokes radius = 3.5; S = 4-5) was determined to be a glycoprotein. When analyzed by gel filtration and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, purified corticosteroid-binding globulin behaved the same as in unfractionated serum, and when ultraviolet photoaffinity-labeled with [3H]androstadienolone, purified corticosteroid-binding globulin produced the same fluorogram spot pattern seen in unfractionated serum. A specific corticosteroid-binding globulin antiserum was raised in rabbits, and this antiserum reacted with a single spot in Western blots of unfractionated serum. Thus, hamster pregnancy serum was determined to have one corticosteroid-binding protein. This protein is identical to the corticosteroid-binding globulin found in proestrous serum, with a higher titer in pregnancy serum. No other steroid-binding component is observed in hamster serum.  相似文献

A method is described for detecting 3H-labelled proteins in immunoelectrophoretic systems performed on agarose gels. The method is based on the incorporation of a polyacrylamide gel into the agarose gel after the electrophoresis. This mixed gel has the characteristics of a polyacrylamide gel, making it possible to use fluorography as has been described for polyacrylamide gels. The applicability of the fluorography method is demonstrated by analyzing 3H-labelled human serum albumin and 3H-labelled pig intestinal brush border proteins by quantitative immunoelectrophoresis.  相似文献

The blood protein polymorphism of serum albumin, haptoglobin, transferrin, ceruloplasmin and haemoglobin have been studied in 135 samples from one-humped Arabian camel (Camelus dromedarius) of the Sudan by starch gel electrophoresis. Only the serum albumin and haptoglobin systems exhibited polymorphism with the estimated frequencies of 0.0222, 0.2227 and 0.7773 for Albv, Hp1Hp0respectively. The frequency of Hp was 0.0325. No electrophoretic variant was observed at transferrin, ceruloplasmin and haemoglobin loci in the camel. The activity of the ceruloplasmin of the camel sera was weak.  相似文献

Native polyacrylamide gels of extracellular proteins produced by several Streptomyces isolates grown with suberin were assayed in situ for esterase activity. Two pathogenic isolates of Streptomyces scabies from different geographical regions were found to produce a similar esterase activity that was not produced by nonpathogenic strains. After treatment with EDTA, suberin no longer induced esterase production. Expression was restored when EDTA-treated suberin was supplemented with zinc. The optimal concentration of zinc required for esterase production was 2 microM. This esterase was purified from one of the pathogenic isolates and characterized. The enzyme was 38,000 daltons when determined by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and 36,000 daltons when determined by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The esterase showed maximal activity in sodium phosphate buffer above pH 8.0, was stable to temperatures of up to 60 degrees C, and had an apparent Km of 125 microM p-nitrophenyl butyrate.  相似文献
