1. A purification procedure for factor VII (proconvertin) from human plasma is described. The procedure involves barium sulphate adsorption and elution. DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography, barium sulphate adsorption and elution, heparin-Sepharose column chromatography, preparative disc gel electrophoresis and finally adsorption with antiserum to prothrombin coupled to Sepharose and antiserum to albumin coupled to Sepharose. This procedure gave an approximately 8 . 10(5)-fold purification. 2. The factor VII obtained from the electrophoresis step was mainly a single-chain protein with an apparent molecular weight of 53000 +/- 2000. 3. After the final purification step, additional forms of factor VII, resulting from a fragmentation of the factor VII molecule were detected. 4. Amino acid composition data of the purified factor VII are given. 5. Antisera were raised in two different rabbits by injection of the purified factor VII. The antisera obtained gave a good titre against the factor VII activity and were not directed against any of the three other vitamin-K-dependent coagulation factors. 相似文献

Molybdate-stabilized, unactivated rat hepatic glucocorticoid-receptor complexes were purified by a three-step procedure which includes affinity chromatography, gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. Following elution of unactivated steroid-receptor complexes from the final DEAE-cellulose column, RNA which remained bound to the anion exchange resin was eluted with 1 M KCl. This RNA was small and heterogeneous in size. Equivalent amounts of RNA were detected after a mock purification which was devoid of receptors, suggesting that the presence of this RNA is not dependent on that of receptors. Both a [32P]DNA complementary to the RNA eluted from DEAE-cellulose and a [32P]DNA probe synthesized from total rat liver RNA gave similar results when hybridized to total rat liver RNA. These data indicated that the RNA which co-purified with unactivated receptors through the first two steps was very similar to total RNA in overall composition. Virtually identical hybridization patterns were also detected when end-labeled probes generated from the DEAE-cellulose eluted RNA or total liver RNA were hybridized to total genomic rat DNA, suggesting that the RNA eluted from the anion exchange resin is not specific or unique. Although these results do not exclude the possibility that there could be specific RNA species associated with the unactivated glucocorticoid receptor, they do indicate that the majority of the RNA eluted from DEAE-cellulose following elution of receptor complexes appears indistinguishable from total rat liver RNA and can be detected in parallel mock purifications. 相似文献

Tissue factor (TF), or thromboplastin, is a cell membrane-associated glycoprotein composed, in full length, of cytoplasmic, transmembrane, and extracellular domains. It functions as a cofactor in a complex with factor VII (FVII), generating activated factor VII (FVIIa) and initiating blood coagulation. The prothrombin time (PT) assay uses TF as the in vitro activator of coagulation under defined conditions, and it is primarily used to diagnose and manage the extrinsic-pathway factor defficiencies. To overcome the limitations of natural-source TF, we have expressed the mature full-length recombinant rabbit TF (rRTF) protein in Pichia pastoris. Isolation, by purification by immobilized metal-affinity chromatography, of full-length rRTF was facilitated by engineering a (His)(6) tail on its C-terminus, which maximizes the selection of rRTF with intact transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains, critical for proper activity. A PT reagent that incorporates this purified rRTF has performance characteristics similar to those of PT reagents made with natural TF as indicated in method comparison studies, and shows lot-to-lot consistency and reproducibility. 相似文献

Modulator is a novel ether aminophosphoglyceride that is commonly known as the low-molecular weight inhibitor of glucocorticoid-receptor complex activation. An ultra-large scale purification of modulator has been performed from 1000 rat livers. This purification was similar to our previous one (Bodine, P. V., and Litwack, G. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 3501-3512), but involved the chromatography of heated rat liver cytosol on a 7-liter bed volume Sephadex G-15 gel filtration column. Two peaks of modulator activity eluted from the giant gel-filtration column, and these two modulators (peak-1 and peak-2) were chromatographed separately on Dowex-1 anion-exchange columns. Both modulators were determined to be homogeneous after this step by analytical high-performance thin-layer chromatography, analytical high-performance liquid chromatography, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Furthermore, although peak-1 and peak-2 differed in molecular weight, the two modulators co-chromatographed by anion-exchange, high-performance thin-layer, and high-performance liquid chromatography. These results suggest that the two modulators have similar structures and therefore appear to be isoforms of each other. In addition, both of the modulators are organic molecules that are devoid of molybdenum and 62 other metals. Activity assays indicated that the larger peak-1 modulator was five times more potent than the smaller peak-2 modulator at inhibiting receptor activation and at stabilizing the steroid-binding ability of the occupied and unoccupied receptors. Mixing experiments indicated that the activities of the two modulators were synergistic for both receptor activation inhibition and for occupied receptor steroid-binding stabilization. However, the effects of peak-1 and peak-2 modulator on unoccupied receptor steroid-binding stabilization were additive. Thus, although the two modulators have similar chemical structures, the biological potencies of the two compounds are different. Moreover, these results suggest that although the unoccupied/unactivated receptor has only one modulator binding site, the occupied/unactivated receptor has two modulator binding sites, one site for each of the isoforms. 相似文献

With heat treatment (20 degrees C for 30 min), the glucocorticoid-receptor complex becomes 'activated' and undergoes an increase in affinity for DNA. A two-stage procedure was used to separate sequentially the rat liver glucocorticoid-receptor complex from proteins with high and low affinity for DNA. DNA-cellulose column chromatography of unheated cytosol resulted in the retention of DNA-binding proteins, but not the unactivated receptor complex. Heat treatment of the column eluate resulted in increased affinity of the receptor complex to DNA, and chromatography on DNA-cellulose then yielded receptor complex free from proteins with low affinity for DNA. Removal of DNA-binding proteins during the first chromatographic step was critically dependent on ionic conditions and the ratio of cytosol chromatographed to DNA-cellulose. A purification of 11000-fold (85% yield) was achieved by this procedure. The partially purified receptor complex was taken up by rat liver nuclei. 相似文献

Factor VII purified as previously described, was found to consist of two polypeptide chains joined by disulfide bridges. We now report the isolation and 200,000-fold purification of a single chain form of Factor VII. This was accomplished by protecting the molecule against proteolysis by including benzamidine during the entire purification. The purification was essentially as previously reported except that barium cirtate was substituted for barium sulfate as an absorbant for Factor VII as it resulted in a 4-fold increase in yield. Single chain Factor VII is rapidly hydrolyzed by Factor Xa in the presence of calcium ions and phospholipids, and by thrombin, to a two-chain form which possesses at least 85 times the Factor VII clotting activity of the single chain species. The two-chain form of the enzyme requires tissue factor in order to activate Factor X. From the observed rates of activation of Factor VII by Xa in the presence of clacium ions and phospholipids, it was claculated that at approximately physiological concentration, Factor VII activity would increase at an initial rate of 20-fold per min; this reaction is sufficiently rapid to constitute a feedback control mechanism. The action of thrombin is approximately 40-fold slower under these conditions. Diisopropylphosphorofluoridate inactivates the single chain and two-chain forms of Factor VII at approximately equal rates. After inhibition, the single chain species could be cleaved but not activated by proteolysis. 相似文献

Chromatography of bovine kidney aldose reductase using Matrex Orange A affinity gel results in the separation of the unactivated and activated enzyme forms. The former washes through the column, while the latter is eluted with an NADPH step-gradient. The separated enzyme forms display Vmax and Km glycolaldehyde values, and relative sensitivities to inhibition by the aldose reductase inhibitor AL-1576 (spiro[2,7-difluorofluorene-9,4'-imidazolidine]-2',5'- dione), that are similar to those reported previously for the individual forms. However, because Vmax is 17-fold lower for the unactivated enzyme, the purification of aldose reductase via NADP(H) elution from a dye-ligand affinity matrix can result in the selective purification of only the activated enzyme form. These results have direct implications for the study of potential aldose reductase inhibitors, and may explain why linear double-reciprocal plots are commonly observed for enzyme prepared in this manner, while nonlinear plots are seen in other cases. 相似文献

Affinity purification of human brain tissue factor utilizing factor VII bound to immobilized anti-factor VII 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An efficient procedure for affinity purification of human tissue factor apoprotein that requires binding of only microgram quantities of human factor VII to anti-factor VII agarose is described. Factor VII was added to a 2% Triton X-100 extract of acetone brain powder in the presence of calcium. The resultant factor VII/tissue factor/calcium complex was bound to anti-factor VII-agarose, and the bound tissue factor was then eluted with EDTA. The eluate was passed through anti-goat IgG-agarose to remove contaminating goat IgG that leaks from the anti-factor VII column. Yield (units of activity) was 27%; specific activity was 2400 U/mg, which corresponds to that reported by others. The purified apoprotein migrated as a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with an apparent molecular weight of 47,000. Immunostaining with a goat anti-tissue factor IgG raised against the purified material yielded a major band of the same apparent molecular weight. Factor VII remains bound to the column and, therefore, for subsequent use preincubation of tissue factor with factor VII and calcium is not required. Thus, the present purification procedure markedly reduces the amount of factor VII needed as affinity ligand to purify tissue factor apoprotein. 相似文献

New developments in affinity chromatography with potential application in the production of biopharmaceuticals. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Affinity chromatography is likely to play an increasingly important role in the purification of pharmaceutical proteins. This review describes new approaches to the design and synthesis of affinity ligands based on the ability to combine knowledge of X-ray crystallographic or NMR structures with defined or combinatorial chemical synthesis. The de novo design process is based on peptidal templates, complementarity to surface exposed residues and mimicking natural biological recognition. Examples of ligands designed to bind specifically to kallikrein, elastase, immunoglobulin G, insulin, alpha(1)-antitrypsin, clotting factor VII and glyco-proteins are given. The exceptional selectivity and stability of these synthetic ligands allows their use in harsh manufacturing environments. 相似文献

A translational inhibitor that is activated by N-ethylmaleimide treatment can be found in the postmicrosomal fraction prepared from the brain of adult rats, but it is almost undetectable in the same fraction prepared from suckling animals. The inhibitor is thermolabile and remains in the supernatant fraction after precipitation at pH 5. During the purification procedure, the inhibitor in its unactivated state binds to the anion exchanger (diethylaminoethyl-cellulose) but not to the cation exchanger (phosphocellulose). Treatment with N-ethylmaleimide increases inhibitor affinity for the cation exchanger, and this chromatographic step purifies the inhibitor by 143-fold. Both the thermolabile nature and the behavior of the inhibitory activity during the different steps of the purification procedure suggest that this activity is most probably due to a protein. Although the addition of initiation factor 2 reverses the inhibition of protein synthesis in the presence of ATP and Mg2+, the inhibitor does not phosphorylate any of the initiation factor subunits "in vitro," which indicates that it does not contain any intrinsic protein kinase activity. However, its presence in both a crude and a purified preparation of a kinase of the alpha subunit of a brain eukaryotic initiation factor increases the phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of the initiation factor. The mechanism of action of this inhibitor is discussed. 相似文献

The study of EGF-like domains is of great general interest in protein science because of their participation in a multitude of protein-protein interactions. A common structural feature of EGF-like modules is the presence of three disulfide bonds, the regioselective formation of which still remains a challenge to peptide chemists. We report here on a method for the one-pot regioselective synthesis of an analogue of the EGF-1 domain of human coagulation Factor VII (residues 45-83) comprising an Asn57beta-Asp substitution. The cysteine protecting groups trityl, t-butyl and acetamidomethyl were chosen for the three disulfide bond pairings. All three disulfide bridges were prepared directly from the crude starting product, obviating the need for the timely and costly purification of the intermediate folded products. The fully folded product was purified by preparative high-pressure liquid chromatography prior to evaluation of its biological activity in an assay to detect inhibition of FVII/TF complex formation. In addition circular dichroism spectroscopy was employed to elucidate the main structural similarities between this peptide analogue and the native human Factor VII EGF-1 domain. 相似文献

Further analysis of the polypeptide subunits of yeast cytochrome c oxidase. Isolation and characterization of subunits III, V, and VII 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
By using a modified purification procedure in which we have substituted detergent exchange gel filtration for DEAE-cellulose or hydroxylapatite chromatography (Mason, T. L., Poyton, R. O., Wharton, D. C., and Schatz, G. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 1346-1354), we have isolated yeast cytochrome c oxidase preparations which are low in contaminating polypeptides and which have been successfully used for the large scale purification of subunits. Subunits have been purified from this preparation by a simple two-step procedure which involves: 1) the release of subunits IV and VI from an "insoluble" core composed of subunits I, II, III, V, and VII; and 2) gel filtration of the "core" subunits in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Molecular weights of the isolated subunits, obtained from sodium dodecyl sulfate gel retardation coefficients (KR) derived from Ferguson plots, were: I, 54,000; II, 31,000; III, 29,500; IV, 14,500; V, 12,500; VI, 9,500; VII, 4,500. In their purified state all subunits, except for subunit V, exhibited electrophoretic behavior similar to that exhibited by unpurified subunits in sodium dodecyl sulfate-dissociated holoenzyme preparations. As purified, subunit V exhibits a slightly smaller apparent molecular weight than its counterpart in the holoenzyme. Amino acid analysis of the isolated subunits revealed that subunit III, a mitochondrial translation product, contained 41.9% polar amino acids, whereas subunits V and VII, cytoplasmic translation products, each contained 47.7% polar amino acids. These results extend and support our previous finding that the mitochondrially translated subunits of yeast cytochrome c oxidase are more hydrophobic than the cytoplasmically translated subunits. 相似文献

Abstract A factor showing inhibitory activity against human gingival fibrolasts was extracted from the cytosol fraction of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Y4. The activity markedly inhibited the proliferation of human gingival fibrolasts, but had no effect on cell viability or gross morphology. No such activity was found in cytosol fractions from either Porphyromonas gingivalis 381 or Escherichia coli HB101. The extract from A. actinomycetemcomitans Y4 was then purified by anion-exchange chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography and gel-filtration chromatography to give a single band on SDS-PAGE with an apparent molecular mass of 65 kDa. The purification ratio was 183-fold with a recovery rate of 5% compared with the crude extract (starting material) when the activity was assessed by direct cell counts. 相似文献

Eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) was isolated from salt-washed microsomes of 4-day-old rat brain which show a high rate of protein synthesis. A three-step purification scheme was employed, including heparin-Sepharose, phosphocellulose, and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the isolated factor revealed three polypeptides with molecular weights of 43,000, 54,000, and 59,000 and 90% purity. The rat brain eIF-2 forms ternary complexes with [3H]methionyl-tRNAi and GTP. In terms of specific activity, the purification does not correspond to that revealed by electrophoretic analysis. During purification there is an apparent loss of additional factors that modulates the activity of eIF-2 and explains the high rate of activity of the crude fraction. 相似文献

Purification, characterization, and activation of the glucocorticoid-receptor complex from rat kidney cortex 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The unactivated molybdate-stabilized glucocorticoid receptor (GcR) was purified from rat kidney cortex cytosol (RKcC) by using a modification of the procedure previously described by this laboratory for rat hepatic receptor. The purification includes affinity chromatography, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography. The final preparation (approximately 1000-fold pure as determined from specific radioactivity) was used in subsequent physicochemical and functional analyses. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) showed a single heavily Coomassie-stained band at 90 kilodaltons. Density gradient ultracentrifugation indicated a sedimentation coefficient of 10.5 +/- 0.05 S (n = 2). Chromatography on an analytical gel filtration column produced a Stokes radius (Rs) of 6.4 +/- 0.07 nm (n = 5). The Rs was unchanged when the molybdate-stabilized GcR was analyzed in the presence of 400 mM KCl or when analyzed in the unpurified (cytosolic) state. In contrast, the hepatic GcR was observed to exist as a larger form in cytosol (7.7 +/- 0.2 nm). Following purification, or upon gel filtration analysis under hypertonic conditions, the Rs was similar to that of the unpurified RKcC GcR. Following removal of molybdate from RKcC GcR and thermal activation (25 degrees C/30 min), DNA-cellulose binding increased 1.5-2-fold over the unheated control. Addition of RKcC or hepatic cytosol (endogenous receptors thermally denatured at 90 degrees C/30 min or presaturated with 10(-7) M radioinert ligand) during thermal activation increased DNA-cellulose binding an additional 2-6-fold beyond the heated control.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Factor V is a substrate for the transamidase factor XIIIa 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Coagulation Factor V (Mr = 330,000), upon cleavage by thrombin, produces Factor Va, which is composed of two subunits with Mr values of 94,000 and 74,000, along with two activation fragments possessing no known function. Studies were undertaken to assess the ability of the transamidase Factor XIIIa to covalently incorporate the lysine analogs [3H]putrescine and dansylcadaverine into the thrombin-cleaved (activated) and unactivated forms of human and bovine Factor V. The incorporation of either probe into thrombin-activated Factor V proceeded at an initial rate approximately twice that for unactivated Factor V. The extent of the incorporation of [3H]putrescine or dansylcadaverine into activated or unactivated human Factor V was identical; 4 mol of either probe per mol of Factor V. In the case of bovine Factor V, however, while 4 mol of probe were bound per mol of the unactivated pro-cofactor, 5 mol of either lysine analog were covalently linked to 1 mol of thrombin-cleaved Factor V. Polyacrylamide gel fluorography, immunoaffinity chromatography, and immunoprecipitation identified the largest activation fragment of human Factor V (Mr = 150,000) and bovine Factor V (Mr = 120,000) to contain the sites of incorporation of the covalently bound probes. High molecular weight, apparently covalent polymers of Factor V were produced by the action of Factor XIIIa on activated and unactivated human or bovine Factor V. The absence of either probe in the reaction mixtures did not appear to allow an enhancement of protein polymerization. 相似文献
