The Q nucleosides isolated from rabbit liver tRNA are known to have sugars (mannose or galactose) linked to their cyclopentene diol moiety. A Q nucleoside containing mannose (manQ) was synthesized by a cell-free system from rat liver, using purified E. coli tRNAAsp as an acceptor and GDP-mannose as a donor molecule. The novel mannosyltransferase catalyzing this reaction was purified from a particulate-free soluble enzyme fraction and found to be strictly specific for tRNAAsp. These results, together with the anomeric configuration of mannose in Q nucleoside, indicate that no lipid intermediate is involved in the biosynthesis of Q nucleoside. 相似文献

A precursor of modified nucleoside Q isolated from E. coli methyl-deficient tRNA was determined to be 7-(aminomethyl)-7-deazaguanosine. The structure was deduced by means of its chromatographic and electrophoretic mobilities, and UV and mass spectra, in addition to comparison with the synthesized authentic compound. The same molecule is also found in tRNA of an E. coli mutant selected for deficient synthesis of modified nucleosides. 相似文献

32P-Labeled tRNAAsn was isolated from methyl-deficient E. coli tRNA. Nucleotide sequence analysis showed that tRNAAsn contains three derivatives of the Q nucleoside, possibly Q precursors, in addition to guanosine in the first position of the anticodon. One of the Q precursors was isolated on a large scale. Its UV spectra were identical with those of normal Q, indicating that 7-deazaguanosine structure having a side chain at position C-7 is complete in the Q precursor. No radioactivity was incorporated into Q or Q precursors from either [methyl-14C]methionine, [1-14C]methionine or [U-14C]methionine, showing that methionine was not directly involved in the formation of Q. 相似文献

A DNA polymerase with properties similar to mammalian polymerase beta has been isolated to near homogeneity from embryos of Drosophila melanogaster. A combination of exclusion chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis indicates that this enzyme is composed of a single polypeptide of molecular weight-110,000. Optimum activity on a nicked template occurs at pH 8.4 in the presence of 15 mM MgCl2 and 250 mM NaCl. Enzyme activity is strongly inhibited by dideoxythymidine triphosphate but is relatively insensitive to aphidicolin and N-ethylmalemide. These properties clearly distinguish this enzyme from polymerase alpha, which has previously been characterized from this tissue. This report represents the first extensive purification of a beta-like polymerase from the Protostomic branch of the animal phylogenetic tree. It furthermore generates the potential for a genetic analysis of the function of polymerase beta in DNA recombination, repair, and synthesis. 相似文献

Affinity chromatography based on the complex formation of the modified nucleoside Q with boronic acid has been applied to the isolation of specific tRNA precursors containing this modified nucleoside. When [32P]RNA isolated from an Escherichia coli strain containing a thermolabile ribonuclease P was chromatographed on dihydroxyboryl-substituted cellulose, the precursors for asparagine, aspartate, histidine, and tyrosine tRNA were specifically retained. All precursors were monomeric. The nucleotide sequences of four asparagine tRNA precursors were determined. 相似文献

A highly fluorescent nucleoside was detected in enzymatic digests of the extremely thermophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus solfataricus by combined liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Following isolation, the structure was determined primarily by mass spectrometry, to be 3-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-4,9-dihydro-4,6,7-trimethyl-9-oxoimidazo[ 1, 2-a]purine (mimG), a new derivative of the Y (wye) nucleoside. The structural assignment was verified by comparison of the base released by acid hydrolysis with the corresponding synthetic base, using mass spectrometry, chromatography, and UV absorption and fluorescence properties. Nucleoside mimG was also detected by LC/MS in hydrolysates of the thermophiles Thermoproteus neutrophilus and Pyrodictium occultum. These results constitute the first finding of a member of the hypermodified Y family of nucleosides in archaebacteria. 相似文献

A tRNA methylase, in which supK strains of Salmonella typhimurium are deficient, was purified from strain LT2 and characterized. Column chromatography of protein extracts from wild-type cells on phosphocellulose, diethylaminoethyl-Sephadex A-50, and hydroxlapatite resulted in an enzyme that was estimated to be about 50% pure. tRNA from S. typhimurium which had been incubated at pH 9.0 served as a substrate for this methylase. The enzyme has a molecular weight of about 50,000 as estimated by gel chromatography and by electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The optimal assay conditions, as well as the kinetics and stability of the enzyme, were studied. As with other tRNA-methylating enzymes, S-adenosylhomocysteine is a potent inhibitor. 相似文献

One allelic form(Acph2) of acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) specified by Acph locus of Drosophila virilis was purified about 1000-fold in 20% yield. The purified preparation was fairly homogeneous as examined by disc and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme protein is considered to be a dimer composed of identical or very similar subunits which have a molecular weight of 50,000. The enzyme is also a glycoprotein which contained 20% neutral sugars and a low content of hexosamines. The optimum pH of the enzyme activity was 5.0 and optimum temperature was 53°C. The Acph2 enzyme was shown to be relatively heat stable. The purified preparations have a for phosphate of 0.2 mM and a broad substrate specificity. The enzyme was inhibited by compounds which inhibit high-molecular weight-acid phosphatase in eukaryotes, localized to lysosomal fractions. The isoelectric point was 9.8. The amino acid analysis revealed a high content of glycine and alanine, but there was no characteristic feature of the composition which accounted for the high isoelectric point. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of tRNATyr from B. stearothermophilus has been determined: pG-G-A-G-G-G-G-s4U-A-G-C-G-A-A-G-U-Gm-G-C-U-A-A-m1A-C-G-C-G-G-C-G-G-A-C-U-Q-U-A-ms2i6A-A-psi-C-C-G-C-U-C-C-C-U-U-U-G-G-G-U-U-C-G-G-C-G-G-T-psi-C-G-A-A-U-C-C-G-U-C-C-C-C-C-U-C-C-A-C-C-AOH. A combination of classical fingerprinting methods, partial nuclease P1 digestion and two-dimensional homochromatography and a rapid "read off" sequencing gel technique were used to establish the complete nucleotide sequence. 相似文献

One of the E. coli mutants selected for deficiency of modified nucleoside Q was found to contain an analogue of Q and normal guanosine in place of Q. The analogue of Q, designated as preQo, was isolated on a large scale from purified tRNATyr containing preQo. The structure of preQo was determined to be 7-(cyano)-7-deazaguanosine by comparison of its ultraviolet absorption spectra, thin-layer chromatographic mobility and mass spectrum with those of synthetic material. 相似文献

An acid DNase was purified from Drosophila melanogaster till apparent homogeneity by six consecutive chromatographic steps. The enzyme is a lysosomal DNase, because it is glycosylated and carries 1.8-2.4 mol of mannose-6-phosphate/mol of enzyme. The enzyme is fully active without any divalent cation and introduces single stranded nicks into a supercoiled DNA. 相似文献
