The amino acid sequences of both the alpha and beta subunits of human chorionic gonadotropin have been determined. The amino acid sequence of the alpha subunit is: Ala - Asp - Val - Gln - Asp - Cys - Pro - Glu - Cys-10 - Thr - Leu - Gln - Asp - Pro - Phe - Ser - Gln-20 - Pro - Gly - Ala - Pro - Ile - Leu - Gln - Cys - Met - Gly-30 - Cys - Cys - Phe - Ser - Arg - Ala - Tyr - Pro - Thr - Pro-40 - Leu - Arg - Ser - Lys - Lys - Thr - Met - Leu - Val - Gln-50 - Lys - Asn - Val - Thr - Ser - Glu - Ser - Thr - Cys - Cys-60 - Val - Ala - Lys - Ser - Thr - Asn - Arg - Val - Thr - Val-70 - Met - Gly - Gly - Phe - Lys - Val - Glu - Asn - His - Thr-80 - Ala - Cys - His - Cys - Ser - Thr - Cys - Tyr - Tyr - His-90 - Lys - Ser. Oligosaccharide side chains are attached at residues 52 and 78. In the preparations studied approximately 10 and 30% of the chains lack the initial 2 and 3 NH2-terminal residues, respectively. This sequence is almost identical with that of human luteinizing hormone (Sairam, M. R., Papkoff, H., and Li, C. H. (1972) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 48, 530-537). The amino acid sequence of the beta subunit is: Ser - Lys - Glu - Pro - Leu - Arg - Pro - Arg - Cys - Arg-10 - Pro - Ile - Asn - Ala - Thr - Leu - Ala - Val - Glu - Lys-20 - Glu - Gly - Cys - Pro - Val - Cys - Ile - Thr - Val - Asn-30 - Thr - Thr - Ile - Cys - Ala - Gly - Tyr - Cys - Pro - Thr-40 - Met - Thr - Arg - Val - Leu - Gln - Gly - Val - Leu - Pro-50 - Ala - Leu - Pro - Gin - Val - Val - Cys - Asn - Tyr - Arg-60 - Asp - Val - Arg - Phe - Glu - Ser - Ile - Arg - Leu - Pro-70 - Gly - Cys - Pro - Arg - Gly - Val - Asn - Pro - Val - Val-80 - Ser - Tyr - Ala - Val - Ala - Leu - Ser - Cys - Gln - Cys-90 - Ala - Leu - Cys - Arg - Arg - Ser - Thr - Thr - Asp - Cys-100 - Gly - Gly - Pro - Lys - Asp - His - Pro - Leu - Thr - Cys-110 - Asp - Asp - Pro - Arg - Phe - Gln - Asp - Ser - Ser - Ser - Ser - Lys - Ala - Pro - Pro - Pro - Ser - Leu - Pro - Ser-130 - Pro - Ser - Arg - Leu - Pro - Gly - Pro - Ser - Asp - Thr-140 - Pro - Ile - Leu - Pro - Gln. Oligosaccharide side chains are found at residues 13, 30, 121, 127, 132, and 138. The proteolytic enzyme, thrombin, which appears to cleave a limited number of arginyl bonds, proved helpful in the determination of the beta sequence.  相似文献

The amino acid sequence of a protease inhibitor isolated from the hemolymph of Sarcophaga bullata larvae was determined by tandem mass spectrometry. Homology considerations with respect to other protease inhibitors with known primary structures assisted in the choice of the procedure followed in the sequence determination and in the alignment of the various peptides obtained from specific chemical cleavage at cysteines and enzyme digests of the S. bullata protease inhibitor. The resulting sequence of 57 residues is as follows: Val Asp Lys Ser Ala Cys Leu Gln Pro Lys Glu Val Gly Pro Cys Arg Lys Ser Asp Phe Val Phe Phe Tyr Asn Ala Asp Thr Lys Ala Cys Glu Glu Phe Leu Tyr Gly Gly Cys Arg Gly Asn Asp Asn Arg Phe Asn Thr Lys Glu Glu Cys Glu Lys Leu Cys Leu.  相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of the β-subunit of protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase was determined. The β-subunit contained four methionine residues. Thus, five peptides were obtained after cleavage of the carboxymethylated β-subunit with cyanogen bromide, and were isolated on Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. The amino acid sequences of the cyanogen bromide peptides were established by characterization of the peptides obtained after digestion with trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or Staphylococcus aureus protease. The major sequencing techniques used were automated and manual Edman degradations. The five cyanogen bromide peptides were aligned by means of the amino acid sequences of the peptides containing methionine purified from the tryptic hydrolysate of the carboxymethylated β-subunit. The amino acid sequence of all the 238 residues was as follows: ProAlaGlnAspAsnSerArgPheValIleArgAsp ArgAsnTrpHis ProLysAlaLeuThrPro-Asp — TyrLysThrSerIleAlaArg SerProArgGlnAla LeuValSerIleProGlnSer — IleSerGluThrThrGly ProAsnPheSerHisLeu GlyPheGlyAlaHisAsp-His — AspLeuLeuLeuAsnPheAsn AsnGlyGlyLeu ProIleGlyGluArgIle-Ile — ValAlaGlyArgValValAsp GlnTyrGlyLysPro ValProAsnThrLeuValGluMet — TrpGlnAlaAsnAla GlyGlyArgTyrArg HisLysAsnAspArgTyrLeuAlaPro — LeuAspProAsn PheGlyGlyValGly ArgCysLeuThrAspSerAspGlyTyrTyr — SerPheArg ThrIleLysProGlyPro TyrProTrpArgAsnGlyProAsnAsp — TrpArgProAla HisIleHisPheGlyIle SerGlyProSerIleAlaThr-Lys — LeuIleThrGlnLeuTyr PheGluGlyAspPro LeuIleProMetCysProIleVal — LysSerIleAlaAsn ProGluAlaValGlnGln LeuIleAlaLysLeuAspMetAsnAsn — AlaAsnProMet AsnCysLeuAlaTyr ArgPheAspIleValLeuArgGlyGlnArgLysThrHis PheGluAsnCys. The sequence published earlier in summary form (Iwaki et al., 1979, J. Biochem.86, 1159–1162) contained a few errors which are pointed out in this paper.  相似文献

The mammalian Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) resides on the plasma membrane and exchanges one intracellular H(+) for one extracellular Na(+). It maintains intracellular pH and regulates cell volume, and cell functions including growth and cell differentiation. Previous structural and functional studies on TMVI revealed several amino acids that are potentially pore lining. We examined these and other critical residues by site-directed mutagenesis substituting Asn227→Ala, Asp, Arg; Ile233→Ala; Leu243→Ala; Glu247→Asp, Gln; Glu248→Asp, Gln. Mutant NHE1 proteins were characterized in AP-1 cells, which do not express endogenous NHE1. All the TMVI critical amino acids were highly sensitive to substitution and changes often lead to a dysfunctional protein. Mutations of Asn227→Ala, Asp, Arg; Ile233→Ala; Leu243→Ala; Glu247→Asp; Glu248→Gln yielded significant reduction in NHE1 activity. Mutants of Asn227 demonstrated defects in protein expression, targeting and activity. Substituting Asn227→Arg and Ile233→Ala decreased the surface localization and expression of NHE1 respectively. The pore lining amino acids Ile233 and Leu243 were both essential for activity. Glu247 was not essential, but the size of the residue at this location was important while the charge on residue Glu248 was more critical to NHE1 function. Limited trypsin digestion on Leu243→Ala and Glu248→Gln revealed that they had increased susceptibility to proteolytic attack, indicating an alteration in protein conformation. Modeling of TMVI with TMXI suggests that these TM segments form part of the critical fold of NHE1 with Ile233 and Leu465 of TMXI forming a critical part of the extracellular facing ion conductance pathway.  相似文献

Important determinants in the autoinhibitory domain of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMK-II), corresponding to residues 281-302 of the kinase alpha-subunit sequence, were identified. Replacement of Thr286 with Ala (CaMK-(281-302 Ala286)) had no effect on either the potency (IC50 = 2 MicroM) or inhibitory mechanism (competitive with ATP) using the catalytic fragment of CaMK-II. Single replacement of charged residues in CaMK-(281-302, Ala286) identified His282, Arg283, Lys291, Arg297, and Lys298 as important determinants (greater than 10-fold increase in IC50) for potent inhibition of CaMK-II. Glu285, Asp288, Lys291, Arg296, and Lys300 were not as essential (less than 4-fold change in IC50) for potent CaMK-II inhibition. Replacement of either Arg283, Lys291, or Arg297, and Lys298 with Ala did not alter the ATP-competitive mechanism of inhibition although the Ki values increased 16-530-fold. However, replacement of His282 with Ala decreased the IC50 by 20-fold and altered the mechanism of inhibition to noncompetitive with respect to ATP. The non-protonated form of His282 was functionally active since decreasing the pH from 7.5 to 5.5 increased the IC50 of CaMK-(281-302, Ala286) almost 20-fold. Histidine protonation also appeared to disrupt the autoinhibitory domain of intact forms of CaMK-II since preincubation of non-proteolyzed rat brain CaMK-II with calcium/calmodulin (in the absence of ATP) at pH 5.5 generated up to 16% calcium-independent activity when assayed at pH 5.5. Similarly, the level of calcium-independent activity of a baculovirus-expressed Asp286 mutant CaMK-II ((D286)mCaMK alpha) increased to almost 80% calcium independence when assayed at pH 5.5 compared to only 20% when assayed at pH 7.5. The levels of calcium-independent activity of both the (D286)mCaMK alpha (at pH 5.5 and 7.5) and the rat brain CaMK-II (at pH 5.5) were sensitive to the concentrations of both ATP and peptide substrate (syntide-2) in the assays. These data suggest that the basic residues Arg283, Lys291, Arg297, and Lys298 are important for potent inhibition of CaMK-II and that the non-protonated form of His282 may play a unique role in the ATP-directed mechanism of inhibition by the CaMK-II autoinhibitory domain.  相似文献

Analytical ultracentrifugation of highly purified seminalplasmin revealed a molecular mass of 6300. Amino acid analysis of the protein preparation indicated the absence of sulfur-containing amino acids cysteine and methionine. The amino acid sequence of seminalplasmin was determined by manual Edman degradation of peptides obtained by proteolytic enzymes trypsin, chymotrypsin and thermolysin: NH2-Ser Asp Glu Lys Ala Ser Pro Asp Lys His His Arg Phe Ser Leu Ser Arg Tyr Ala Lys Leu Ala Asn Arg Leu Ser Lys Trp Ile Gly Asn Arg Gly Asn Arg Leu Ala Asn Pro Lys Leu Leu Glu Thr Phe Lys Ser Val-COOH. The number of amino acids according to the sequence were 48, the molecular mass 6385. As predicted from the sequence, seminalplasmin very likely contains two α-helical domains in which residues 8-17 and 40-48 are involved. No evidence for the existence of β-sheet structures was obtained. Treatment of seminalplasmin with the above proteases as well as with amino peptidase M and carboxypeptidase Y completely eliminated biological activity.  相似文献

Recent studies of proteins with reversed charged residues have demonstrated that electrostatic interactions on the surface can contribute significantly to protein stability. We have used the approach of reversing negatively charged residues using Arg to evaluate the effect of the electrostatics context on the transition temperature (T(m)), the unfolding Gibbs free energy change (DeltaG), and the unfolding enthalpy change (DeltaH). We have reversed negatively charged residues at a pocket (Asp9) and protrusions (Asp10, Asp20, Glu85), all located in interconnecting segments between elements of secondary structure on the surface of Arg73Ala Escherichia coli thioredoxin. DSC measurements indicate that reversal of Asp in a pocket (Asp9Arg/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = -7.3 degrees C) produces a larger effect in thermal stability than reversal at protrusions: Asp10Arg/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = -3.1 degrees C, Asp20Arg/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = 2.0 degrees C, Glu85Arg/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = 3.9 degrees ). The 3D structure of thioredoxin indicates that Asp20 and Glu85 have no nearby charges within 8 A, while Asp9 does not only have Asp10 as sequential neighbor, but it also forms a 5-A long-range ion pair with the solvent-exposed Lys69. Further DSC measurements indicate that neutralization of the individual charges of the ion pair Asp9-Lys69 with nonpolar residues produces a significant decrease in stability in both cases: Asp9Ala/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = -3.7 degrees C, Asp9Met/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = -5.5 degrees C, Lys69Leu/Arg73Ala, DeltaT(m) = -5.1 degrees C. However, thermodynamic analysis shows that reversal or neutralization of Asp9 produces a 9-15% decrease in DeltaH, while both reversal of Asp at protrusions and neutralization of Lys69 produce negligible changes. These results correlate well with the NMR analysis, which demonstrates that only the substitution of Asp9 produces extensive conformational changes and these changes occur in the surroundings of Lys69. Our results led us to suggest that reversal of a negative charge at a pocket has a larger effect on stability than a similar reversal at a protrusion and that this difference arises largely from short-range interactions with polar groups within the pocket, rather than long-range interactions with solvent-exposed charged groups.  相似文献

Tryptic peptides which account for all five cysteinyl residues in ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from Rhodospirillum rubrum have been purified and sequenced. Collectively, these peptides contain 94 of the approximately 500 amino acid residues per molecule of subunit. Due to one incomplete cleavage at a site for trypsin and two incomplete chymotryptic-like cleavages, eight major radioactive peptides (rather than five as predicted) were recovered from tryptic digests of the enzyme that had been carboxymethylated with [3H]iodoacetate. The established sequences are: GlyTyrThrAlaPheValHisCys1Lys TyrValAspLeuAlaLeuLysGluGluAspLeuIleAla GlyGlyGluHisValLeuCys1AlaTyr AlaGlyTyrGlyTyrValAlaThrAlaAlaHisPheAla AlaGluSerSerThrGlyThrAspValGluValCys1 ThrThrAsxAsxPheThrArg AlaCys1ThrProIleIleSerGlyGlyMetAsnAla LeuArg ProPheAlaGluAlaCys1HisAlaPheTrpLeuGly GlyAsnPheIleLys In these peptides, radioactive carboxymethylcysteinyl residues are denoted with asterisks and the sites of incomplete cleavage with vertical wavy lines. None of the peptides appear homologous with either of two cysteinyl-containing, active-site peptides previously isolated from spinach ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase.  相似文献

The recent availability of the SHV-1 beta-lactamase crystal structure provides a framework for the understanding of the functional role of amino acid residues in this enzyme. To that end, we have constructed by site-directed mutagenesis 18 variants of the SHV beta-lactamase: an extended spectrum group: Gly238Ser, Gly238Ser-Glu240Lys, Asp104Lys-Gly238Ser, Asp104Lys-Thr235Ser-Gly238Ser, Asp179Asn, Arg164His, and Arg164Ser; an inhibitor resistant group: Arg244Ser, Met69Ile, Met69Leu, and Ser130Gly; mutants that are synergistic with those that confer resistance to oxyimino-cephalosporins: Asp104Glu, Asp104Lys, Glu240Lys, and Glu240Gln; and structurally conserved mutants: Thr235Ser, Thr235Ala and Glu166Ala. Among the extended spectrum group the combination of high-level ampicillin and cephalosporin resistance was demonstrated in the Escherichia coli DH10B strains possessing the Gly238Ser mutation: Gly238Ser, Gly238Ser-Glu240Lys, Asp104Lys-Gly238Ser, and Asp104Lys-Thr235Ser-Gly238Ser. Of the inhibitor resistant group, the Ser130Gly mutant was the most resistant to ampicillin/clavulanate. Using a polyclonal anti-SHV antibody, we assayed steady state protein expression levels of the SHV beta-lactamase variants. Mutants with the Gly238Ser substitution were among the most highly expressed. The Gly238Ser substitution resulted in an improved relative k(cat)/K(m) value for cephaloridine and oxyimino-cephalosporins compared to SHV-1 and Met69Ile. In our comparative survey, the Gly238Ser and extended spectrum beta-lactamase variants containing this substitution exhibited the greatest substrate versatility against penicillins and cephalosporins and greatest protein expression. This defines a unique role of Gly238Ser in broad-spectrum beta-lactam resistance in this family of class A beta-lactamases.  相似文献

Tetrameric adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL) of Bacillus subtilis catalyzes the cleavage of adenylosuccinate to form AMP and fumarate. We previously reported that two distinct subunits contribute residues to each active site, including the His68 and His89 from one and His141 from a second subunit [Brosius, J. L., and Colman, R. F. (2000) Biochemistry 39, 13336-13343]. Glu(275) is 2.8 A from His141 in the ASL crystal structure, and Lys268 is also in the active site region; Glu275 and Lys268 come from a third, distinct subunit. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we have replaced Lys268 by Arg, Gln, Glu, and Ala, with specific activities of the purified mutant enzymes being 0.055, 0.00069, 0.00028, and 0.0, respectively, compared to 1.56 units/mg for wild-type (WT) enzyme. Glu275 was substituted by Gln, Asp, Ala, and Arg; none of these homogeneous mutant enzymes has detectable activity. Circular dichroism and light scattering reveal that neither the secondary structure nor the oligomeric state of the Lys268 mutant enzymes has been perturbed. Native gel electrophoresis and circular dichroism indicate that the Glu275 mutant enzymes are tetramers, but their conformation is altered slightly. For K268R, the K(m)s for all substrates are similar to WT enzyme. Binding studies using [2-3H]-adenylosuccinate reveal that none of the Glu275 mutant enzymes, nor inactive K268A, can bind substrate. We propose that Lys268 participates in binding substrate and that Glu275 is essential for catalysis because of its interaction with His141. Incubation of H89Q with K268Q or E275Q leads to restoration of up to 16% WT activity, while incubation of H141Q with K268Q or E275Q results in 6% WT activity. These complementation studies provide the first functional evidence that a third subunit contributes residues to each intersubunit active site of ASL. Thus, adenylosuccinate lyase has four active sites per enzyme tetramer, each of which is formed from regions of three subunits.  相似文献

Nine single mutations were introduced to amino acid residues Thr441, Glu442, Lys515, Arg560, Cys561, and Leu562 located in the nucleotide-binding domain of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, and the functional consequences were studied in a direct nucleotide binding assay, as well as by steady-state and transient kinetic measurements of the overall and partial reactions of the transport cycle. Some partial reaction steps were also examined in mutants with alterations to Phe487, Arg489, and Lys492. The results implicate all these residues, except Cys561, in high affinity nucleotide binding at the substrate site. Mutations Thr441 --> Ala, Glu442 --> Ala, and Leu562 --> Phe were more detrimental to MgATP binding than to ATP binding, thus pointing to a role for these residues in the binding of Mg2+ or to a difference between the interactions with MgATP and ATP. Subsequent catalytic steps were also selectively affected by the mutations, showing the involvement of the nucleotide-binding domain in these reactions. Mutation of Arg560 inhibited phosphoryl transfer but enhanced the E1PCa2 --> E2P conformational transition, whereas mutations Thr441 --> Ala, Glu442 --> Ala, Lys492 --> Leu, and Lys515 --> Ala inhibited the E1PCa2 --> E2P transition. Hydrolysis of the E2P phosphoenzyme intermediate was enhanced in Glu442 --> Ala, Lys492 --> Leu, Lys515 --> Ala, and Arg560 --> Glu. None of the mutations affected the low affinity activation by nucleotide of the phosphoenzyme-processing steps, indicating that modulatory nucleotide interacts differently from substrate nucleotide. Mutation Glu442 --> Ala greatly enhanced reaction of Lys515 with fluorescein isothiocyanate, indicating that the two residues form a salt link in the native protein.  相似文献

Sorting of the prohormone POMC to the regulated secretory pathway necessitates the binding of a sorting signal to a sorting receptor, identified as membrane carboxypeptidase E (CPE). The sorting signal, located at the N terminus of POMC consists of two acidic (Asp10, Glu14) and two hydrophobic (Leu11, Leu18) residues exposed on the surface of an amphipathic loop. In this study, molecular modeling of CPE predicted that the acidic residues in the POMC-sorting signal bind specifically to two basic residues, Arg255 and Lys260, present in a loop unique to CPE, compared with other carboxypeptidases. To test the model, these two residues on CPE were mutated to Ser or Ala, followed by baculovirus expression of the mutant CPEs in Sf9 cells. Sf9 cell membranes containing CPE mutants with either Arg255 or Lys260, or both residues substituted, showed no binding of [125I]N-POMC1-26 (which contains the POMC-sorting signal motif), proinsulin, or proenkephalin. In contrast, substitution of an Arg147 to Ala147 at a substrate-binding site, Arg259 to Ala259 and Ser202 to Pro202, in CPE did not affect the level of [125I]N-POMC1-26 binding when compared with-wild type CPE. Furthermore, mutation of the POMC-sorting signal motif (Asp10, Leu11, Glu14, Leu18) eliminated binding to wild-type CPE. These results indicate that the sorting signal of POMC, proinsulin, and proenkephalin specifically interacts with Arg255 and Lys260 at a novel binding site, independent of the active site on CPE.  相似文献

The MexABM efflux pump exports structurally diverse xenobiotics, utilizing the proton electrochemical gradient to confer drug resistance on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The MexB subunit traverses the inner membrane 12 times and has two, two, and one charged residues in putative transmembrane segments 2 (TMS-2), TMS-4, and TMS-10, respectively. All five residues were mutated, and MexB function was evaluated by determining the MICs of antibiotics and fluorescent dye efflux. Replacement of Lys342 with Ala, Arg, or Glu and Glu346 with Ala, Gln, or Asp in TMS-2 did not have a discernible effect. Ala, Asn, or Lys substitution for Asp407 in TMS-4, which is well conserved, led to loss of activity. Moreover, a mutant with Glu in place of Asp407 exhibited only marginal function, suggesting that the length of the side chain at this position is important. The only replacements for Asp408 in TMS-4 or Lys939 in TMS-10 that exhibited significant function were Glu and Arg, respectively, suggesting that the native charge at these positions is required. In addition, double neutral mutants or mutants in which the charged residues Asp407 and Lys939 or Asp408 and Lys939 were interchanged completely lost function. An Asp408-->Glu/Lys939-->Arg mutant retained significant activity, while an Asp407-->Glu/Lys939-->Arg mutant exhibited only marginal function. An Asp407-->Glu/Asp408-->Glu double mutant also lost activity, but significant function was restored by replacing Lys939 with Arg (Asp407-->Glu/Asp408-->Glu/Lys939-->Arg). Taken as a whole, the findings indicate that Asp407, Asp408, and Lys939 are functionally important and raise the possibility that Asp407, Asp408, and Lys939 may form a charge network between TMS-4 and TMS-10 that is important for proton translocation and/or energy coupling.  相似文献

We examined the effects of orally administrated amino acids on myfibrillar proteolysis in food-deprived chicks. Plasma N(tau)-methylhistidine concentration, as an index of myofibrillar proteolysis, was decreased by the administration of Glu, Gly, Ala, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Met, Trp, Asn, Gln, Pro, Lys and Arg but not by Asp, Val, Phe, Tyr or His to chicks. Orally administrated Cys was fatal to chicks. These results indicate that oral Glu, Gly, Ala, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Met, Trp, Asn, Gln, Pro, Lys and Arg administration suppressed myofibrillar proteolysis in chicks.  相似文献

AmtR, the master regulator of nitrogen control in Corynebacterium glutamicum, plays important roles in nitrogen metabolism. To investigate the influence of AmtR on amino acids production in C. glutamicum ATCC 13032, the amtR deletion strain C. glutamicum Q1 was constructed and cultured in modified CGXII minimal medium for 60 h. The ammonium consumption rates as well as amino acids production of both strains cultured in modified CGXII minimal medium were determined. The amtR deletion in C. glutamicum caused an obvious growth defect in the exponential growth phase, but both strains had the same biomass in the stationary phases. Maybe the less alpha-oxoglutarate was used for the tricarboxylic acid cycle to influence the growth of strains. During 12 h, the rate of ammonium consumption and the concentration of Glu, Pro, Arg and Ser were higher but Asp, Gly, Ile, Leu, Lys were lower in the mutation strain. During 48 h, the Q1 had higher levels of Asp, Lys, Pro, Ala and Val,and lower levels of Glu, Arg, Leu and Ile, compared to the wild. The more Glu was synthesized by the activated GS/GOGAT pathway in Q1, and then the accumulation of relative amino acids (Pro, Arg and Ser) were up-regulated within 12 h growth. After 48 h growth, the amtR deletion obviously influenced accumulation of Ala, Asp and Pro.

The sequence of 96 amino acid residues from the COOH-terminus of the active subunit of cholera toxin, A1, has been determined as PheAsnValAsnAspVal LeuGlyAlaTyrAlaProHisProAsxGluGlu GluValSerAlaLeuGlyGly IleProTyrSerGluIleTyrGlyTrpTyrArg ValHisPheGlyValLeuAsp GluGluLeuHisArgGlyTyrArgAspArgTyr TyrSerAsnLeuAspIleAla ProAlaAlaAspGlyTyrGlyLeuAlaGlyPhe ProProGluHisArgAlaTrp ArgGluGluProTrpIleHisHisAlaPro ProGlyCysGlyAsnAlaProArg(OH). This is the largest fragment obtained by BrCN cleavage of the subunit A1 (Mr 23,000), and has previously been indicated to contain the active site for the adenylate cyclase-stimulating activity. Unequivocal identification of the COOH-terminal structure was achieved by separation and analysis of the terminal peptide after the specific chemical cleavage at the only cysteine residue in A1 polypeptide. The site of self ADP-ribosylation in the A1 subunit [C. Y. Lai, Q.-C. Xia, and P. T. Salotra (1983) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.116, 341–348] has now been identified as Arg-50 of this peptide, 46 residues removed from the COOH-terminus. The cysteine that forms disulfide bridge to A2 subunit in the holotoxin is at position 91.  相似文献
