Spectroscopic measurements of virgin bovine trypsin-kallikrein inhibitor and its modified species (in which the reactive-site peptide bond Lys-15--Ala-16 is split) indicate a conformational difference between both proteins. The inhibitor contains four tyrosines but no tryptophan. In the modified inhibitor a tyrosyl blue shift is seen in the difference absorption spectrum of modified against virgin inhibitor. The solvent perturbation spectra show an increase of the fraction of exposed tyrosyls from 0.45 in the virgin inhibitor to 0.59 in the modified form. Comparison of the circular dichroism spectra of the modified and virgin inhibitors reveals a decrease of the mean residue ellipticity in the tyrosine and peptide bond region of the modified inhibitor. In the fluorescence spectra a 50% increase in the quantum yield of the tyrosine fluorescence is observed in the modified inhibitor. All these spectroscopic data support the idea, which is also evidenced by the X-ray crystallographic model, that in the modified inhibitor up to five residues from Ala-16 to Arg-20 gain rotational freedom. 相似文献

Reactions between near equimolar amounts of antithrombin and Factors IXa or Xa resulted in the formation of a free proteolytically modified, two-chain form of the inhibitor, in addition to the inactive antithrombin-protease complexes. The modified inhibitor produced by either enzyme was electrophoretically identical with that formed in the reaction with thrombin. As in the latter reaction, the formation of the modified antithrombin by Factor Xa was increased in the presence of heparin, while only small amounts were produced by Factor IXa both in the absence and presence of the polysaccharide. NH2-terminal sequence analyses of the isolated modified inhibitor formed by Factor Xa showed that a single Arg-Ser bond in the COOH-terminal end of the inhibitor had been cleaved. This cleavage site is identical with that identified in free thrombin-modified antithrombin. The purified antithrombin-Factor IXa and antithrombin-Factor Xa complexes were dissociated by ammonia or hydroxylamine into free enzyme and a modified two-chain form of the inhibitor. Electrophoresis studies and NH2-terminal sequence analyses showed that the modified antithrombin obtained from either complex was identical with that produced in free form by the two enzymes and also with the modified inhibitor that is released from the antithrombin-thrombin complex. The fact that identical results were obtained for the reactions between antithrombin and three enzymes with different specificities strongly suggests that the observed Arg-Ser cleavage site is the active site of antithrombin. 相似文献

40% of the primary structure of the cow colostrum proteinase inhibitor (CTI) is homologous with the structure of the trypsin kallikrein inhibitor (TKI) from bovine organs; the positions of the reactive lysine residues are also the same in both inhibitors. Both CTI and TKI were modified by carbamoylation and the fully labeled derivatives were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography. The effect of the modification on the antitryptic and antichymotryptic activity of both inhibitors was investigated. The antichymotryptic activity of both inhibitors is not decreased after the modification. The antitryptic activity of modified TKI is retained, yet the dissociation constant of the complex of the modified inhibitor with trypsin is considerably increased; nevertheless, modified TKI is a good trypsin inhibitor. The antitryptic activity of modified CTI is hardly detectable. We explain this difference in the behaviour of both inhibitors by a replacement of basic residues Arg-17 and Arg-39 in TKI by neutral amino acids Ala-20 and Gln-42 in CTI. 相似文献

The peptide Leu-Val-Lys-Val-Pro-Leu-Val-Arg-Lys-Lys-Ser-Leu-Arg-Gln-Asn-Leu, a known pepsin inhibitor, is derived from the first 16 amino acids of porcine pepsinogen. It was prepared from the activation mixture and was modified by guanidination of its three lysine residues to form homoarginine residues. The modified peptide is a better pepsin inhibitor than the native peptide; for 50% inhibition of the milk clotting action of pepsin at pH 5.3, the molar ratio of peptide to pepsin required is 9 for the native inhibitor and only 2 for the guanidinated inhibitor. The dissociation constants (k1) of the inhibitor-pepsin complexes are 7 X 10(-8) and 1.4 X 10(-8) M for the native and guanidinated peptides, respectively. The guanidinated peptide is more resistant to digestion by pepsin at pH 3.5. The native and modified peptides partially protect pepsin from inactivation at pH 7. Stepwise removal of the amino-terminal Leu-Val-Har residues from the guanidinated inhibitor by Edman degradation decreases the pepsin-inhibiting activity only slightly at the first step, but markedly at the second and third steps. Thus, all of the amino-terminal sequence except the leucine residue is necessary for full activity. 相似文献

Arginine residues (5.5 out of 6) of the trypsin-kallikrein inhibitor from bovine organs (Kunitz inhibitor) were selectively modified by reaction with 1, 2-cyclohexanedione in sodium borate buffer, pH 9.0. The modified inhibitor is still highly active in inhibiting trypsin and chymotrypsin at 1:1 inhibitor: enzyme molar ratio and full inhibition was achieved at slightly higher molar ratio. The extent of correct refolding, upon reoxidation, of the reduced, arginine-modified inhibitor is diminished and regeneration of two arginines occurred under the reduction conditions. The stability constants and the standard-free energies of binding of the complexes between trypsin, or chymotrypsin, and the native, the arginine-modified and the reduced and reoxidized arginine-modified inhibitor have been determined from inhibitory assays. 相似文献

Human alpha 1-antichymotrypsin reacts with bovine chymotrypsin to form an equimolar complex and this reaction is accompanied by the formation of a free, modified form of the inhibitor. Time-course studies, performed on mixtures containing an excess of native inhibitor and kept at 0 degree C or at 25 degrees C, show that the equimolar complex dissociates spontaneously; this dissociation results in the release of inactive modified alpha 1-antichymotrypsin and of some active enzyme, which is able to recycle with active inhibitor in excess. When all the native inhibitor is used up, the released active enzyme degrades the remaining intact complex into intermediate forms. At the endpoint of the reaction only inactive modified inhibitor and some active chymotrypsin remain. Immunochemical data indicate that, in the complex, a steric hindrance of the antigenic determinants of the inhibitor prevents the formation of the precipitate with specific antiserum. Inactive modified inhibitor, which has dissociated from the complex, has retained antigenic determinants of the native alpha 1-antichymotrypsin. 相似文献

Catalytic amounts of bovine beta-trypsin, bovine alpha-chymotrypsin and porcine plasmin establish a true thermodynamic equilibrium between virgin (I) (reactive site Lys15-Ala16 peptide bond intact) and modified (I) (this bond hydrolyzed) bovine trypsin/kallikrein inhibitor (Kunitz). The very slow reaction rates for attaining equilibrium are pH-dependent and differ for different enzymes. Optimal rates are for beta-trypsin at pH 3.75, for alpha-chymotrypsin at pH 5.5, and for plasmin at pH 5.0. Under conditions of optimum pH the equilibrium is reached with the highest rate by plasmin. In 10(-5)M inhibitor solutions the equilibrium concentrations of virgin and modified inhibitor are established by plasmin after almost 300 days starting from either pure virgin or pure modified inhibitor. Thus, the hydrolysis constant KHyd = [I]/[I] is determined to be 0.33 at pH 5.0. In spite of many unsuccessful attempts, this demonstrates that the reactive site peptide bond Lys15-Ala16 in the bovine trypsin inhibitor (Kunitz) can be hydrolyzed by catalytic amounts of endopeptidase. It further confirms that the hydrolyzed Lys15-Ala16 peptide bond in modified inhibitor is subject to thermodynamic control resynthesis. 相似文献

Trypsin [EC 3.4.21.4] modified (reactive site cleaved) Vicia angustifolia proteinase inhibitor was prepared at pH 3 with a catalytic amount of trypsin and purified using columns of Sephadex G-50 and DEAE-Sephadex A-25. The modified inhibitor, which still retained antitryptic activity, lost its activity upon treatment with carboxypeptidase B or citraconic anhydride. End-group analyses revealed that the carboxyl-terminal Arg and the amino-terminal Ser residues were newly exposed end-groups in the modified inhibitor. It takes a much longer incubation time (about 1 h) to exhibit the maximal inhibitory activity against trypsin. Reduction and carboxymethylation of the modified inhibitor produced two fragments on Sephadex G-50 chromatography. The smaller fragment consisted of about 32 amino acid residues and possessed a new carboxyl-terminal Arg residue. The larger fragment consisted of about 80 residues and possessed a Ser residue at its amino-terminus. These results indicate that the small fragment was derived from the amino-terminal portion of the modified inhibitor and the large fragment from the carboxyl-terminal. It is also concluded that an Arg-Ser bond is the reactive site as well as the inhibitory site of the V. angustifolia inhibitor against trypsin. The sequence around the antitryptic site exhibits high degrees of homology with other double-headed inhibitors of legume origin, such as the Bowman-Birk inhibitor, lima beam inhibitor, and the major inhibitor in chick-peas. 相似文献

The effects of electrostatic charge of the matrix on the pH-dependence of interactions of commercial trypsin with preparations of pancreatic inhibitor modified by soluble polysaccharide coupling were studied. It was shown that the rate constants of trypsin association with native and modified pancreatic inhibitor preparations as well as the rate constants of dissociation of their complexes and, consequently, the inhibition constants are identical. The invariability of the rate constants for the association reaction after the increase in the molecular weight of pancreatic inhibitor may be probably accounted for by the fact that the limiting step of a stable trypsin-inhibitor complex formation is not controlled by diffusion. Thermal denaturation of pancreatic inhibitor preparations modified by binding to polysaccharides (pH 4.7--8.0, 97 degrees C) suggests an essential role of the negative charge of matrix in stabilization of the protein inhibitor globule. 相似文献

The modification of duck ovomucoid, a proteinaceous proteinase inhibitor from egg white, by poly-N,N-diethylacrylamide possessing a low critical solution temperature (LCST) has been investigated. The free amino groups of the
lysine residues and the N-terminal residue of the ovomucoid molecule were modified; as a result, the inhibitor activity towards trypsin decreased significantly
and that towards chymotrypsin decreased slightly. The transformation of ovomucoid antitryptic centers into antichymotryptic
centers was observed upon the heating of the solutions of the modified protein above the LCST. The hydrophobization of the
lysine residues situated in the reactive centers of the inhibitor was shown to cause this phenomenon. The structure of the
binding loop was not distorted and the modified lysine residues could be recognized by chymotrypsin molecules, similarly to
the hydrophobic amino acid residues of the antichymotryptic center. 相似文献

Equilibrium measurements of the binding of reactive-site-cleaved (modified) bovine trypsin-kallikrein inhibitor (Kunitz) to alpha-chymotrypsin and beta-trypsin show a stoichiometric 1:1 association with high binding constants. At least in the case of chymotrypsin much evidence is presented that the reaction with modified inhibitor leads to the same complex as the reaction with virgin inhibitor does. The association rate constant of modified inhibitor with chymotrypsin at pH 7, 22.5 degrees C is 15.8 M-1 S-1. This is about 2 x 10(4) times slower than the binding of virgin inhibitor to that enzyme. In the analogous reaction of modified inhibitor with beta-trypsin, however, the association rate constant (1.2 x 10(4) M-1 s-1 at pH 6.9, 22.5 degrees C) is of about the same order of magnitude as it is in the reaction of virgin inhibitor and trypsin. These and analogous phenomena observed in the reactions of virgin and modified soybean trypsin inhibitor (Kunitz) with alpha-chymotrypsin and beta-trypsin suggest that the specificity of both inhibitors to trypsin is strongly reflected in the association rate constants of the modified forms. The dissociation rate constants of the complexes of trypsin-kallikrein inhibitor with chymotrypsin or with trypsin towards the modified inhibitor are estimated to be unmeasurably slow (half-life times of 45 or 1.5 x 10(4) years, respectively). 相似文献

Human pro-urokinase expressed in the mammary glands of transgenic animals is quickly activated and converted to urokinase
by proteases that are present in the milk. Thus, it is nearly impossible to isolate full-sized pro-urokinase from the milk
of transgenic animals. To solve this problem, we constructed transgenic mice that express human pro-urokinase and modified
ecotin, which is a potent serine protease inhibitor from E. coli, in their mammary glands. The gene encoding ecotin was modified so as to enhance its specificity for the human urokinase-type
plasminogen activator. Co-expression of modified ecotin and human pro-urokinase in the mammary glands allows for purification
of full-length human pro-urokinase from these transgenic mice. The results described here suggest a general way of preventing
the activation of zymogens that are expressed in the mammary glands of transgenic animals by co-expression of a zymogen along
with a protease inhibitor. 相似文献

Chemical modification of two histidine residues of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) by diethyl pyrocarbonate in the presence of a high concentration of maltotriose caused a decrease of amylase activity and an increase of maltosidase activity (hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-alpha-maltoside). By binding a proteinaceous inhibitor from Phaseolus vulgaris (white kidney bean) with the modified enzyme, the amylase activity was further decreased but the maltosidase activity was retained to about 100% that of the native enzyme. Both amylase and maltosidase activities of the native enzyme were almost completely inhibited by the proteinaceous inhibitor. The increase of maltosidase activity by histidine modification was due to an increase of kcat, whereas the Km value was not changed; but binding of the proteinous inhibitor affected mainly the Km value of the modified enzyme. 相似文献

The turkey reproductive tract and seminal plasma contain a serine proteinase inhibitor that seems to be unique for the reproductive tract. Our experimental objective was to isolate, characterize and cDNA sequence the Kazal family proteinase inhibitor from turkey seminal plasma and testis. Seminal plasma contains two forms of a Kazal family inhibitor: virgin (Ia) represented by an inhibitor of moderate electrophoretic migration rate (present also in the testis) and modified (Ib, a split peptide bond) represented by an inhibitor with a fast migration rate. The inhibitor from the seminal plasma was purified by affinity, ion-exchange and reverse phase chromatography. The testis inhibitor was purified by affinity and ion-exchange chromatography. N-terminal Edman sequencing of the two seminal plasma inhibitors and testis inhibitor were identical. This sequence was used to construct primers and obtain a cDNA sequence from the testis. Analysis of a cDNA sequence indicated that turkey proteinase inhibitor belongs to Kazal family inhibitors (pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitors, mammalian acrosin inhibitors) and caltrin. The turkey seminal plasma Kazal inhibitor belongs to low molecular mass inhibitors and is characterized by a high value of the equilibrium association constant for inhibitor/trypsin complexes. 相似文献

The three-dimensional structure of a proteolytically modified protein C inhibitor, a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily, was constructed with computer graphics based on its amino acid sequence homology with that of the modified alpha 1-antitrypsin whose structure had been elucidated by X-ray crystallography. The intact form of protein C inhibitor was predicted with an alpha-carbon model based on its hydrophilicity and hydrogen bond pattern. Furthermore, a model of its interaction with activated protein C was constructed based on the structure of the complex between trypsin and its inhibitor, which had been determined by X-ray crystallography. 相似文献

By manifold immunizations of rabbits with virgin or modified trypsin inhibitor III from squash seeds and trypsin inhibitor II b from cucumber seeds, specific antibodies were produced. In double immunodiffusion the anti-squash inhibitor antibody also gave weak precipitate arcs with inhibitor I from squash, inhibitor II from summer squash and with inhibitor I from zucchini, but not with inhibitor II b from cucumber seeds. The genus of Cucurbita trypsin inhibitors, preincubated with the antibody, lost their antitrypsin activity. The antibody showed a significantly weaker effect on the activity of the inhibitor from cucumber sees. 1H-NMR and CD spectra also confirm structural differences between trypsin inhibitors from the genus of Cucurbita and the cucumber (genus of Cucumis) inhibitor. 相似文献

Kinetic and chemical evidence for the inability of oxidized alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor to protect lung elastin from elastolytic degradation 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The oxidation of human alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor results in the conversion of this protein into a form which cannot protect lung elastin from degradation by elastolytic proteinases. Data indicate that this is primarily because of the lowering of the association rate between the modified inhibitor and neutrophil elastase, as well as in a change in Ki from near 10(-14) to near 10(-10)M. This is consistent with the hypothesis that oxidation of alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor in the lung by cigarette smoke results in a lowering of the protection of this organ from elastolytic degradation. 相似文献

The single tryptophan residue Trp-104 of chicken cystatin was modified with a 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl group. The change of the absorption spectrum of this group on binding of the modified cystatin to papain indicated a decreased environmental polarity of the probe. The modified inhibitor had about a 10(5)-fold lower affinity for papain than had intact cystatin, this being due to a higher dissociation rate constant. These results show that Trp-104 of cystatin is located in or near the proteinase-binding site of the inhibitor, in agreement with a model proposed from computer docking Experiments. 相似文献

We describe an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for quantifying relative amounts of active caspase 3 in apoptotic cells. Covalent modification of caspase 3 active sites with a biotinylated inhibitor differentiates active from latent caspases. Capture on an ELISA plate with an antibody specific for caspase 3 makes the assay specific for caspase 3. Detection is with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin that binds to the biotinylated inhibitor covalently bound to caspase 3. Using the assay we detected 6.6 ng active caspase 3 per 10(6) apoptotic staurosporine-treated Jurkat cells. Specificity of the assay for caspase 3 was demonstrated by lack of signal with purified caspases 2, 7, 8, and 10 that were modified by a biotinylated inhibitor. Specificity was also demonstrated by lack of signal with apoptotic MCF-7 cells which do not express caspase 3. The ability to discriminate between active and latent caspase 3 was shown by Western blotting with HRP-streptavidin and anti-caspase 3. Although latent caspase 3 was captured it was not covalently modified with the biotinylated inhibitor. The basic principle of using a covalent inhibitor to identify active enzymes and an antibody to differentiate between enzymes with similar activities has potential for quantifying active members of many classes of enzymes. 相似文献

A trypsin inhibitor was extracted from the kale seeds with 0.01 M-HCl, precipitated with ammonium sulphate, and purified by affinity chromatography on immobilized trypsin and ion-exchange chromatography on QAE-Sephadex A-25. The inhibitor, of Mr 8 000, is composed of 64 amino acid residues and contains neither threonine nor methionine. Its isoelectric point is 8.9. In addition to trypsin, the inhibitor acts on subtilopeptidase A and shows a very weak antichymotrypsin activity. The factors modifying the arginine residues inactivate the inhibitor. A modified form of the inhibitor (with a broken reactive site peptide bond) has been isolated in pure form, and its properties were compared with those of the virgin form. 相似文献
