Plasminogen activator from conditioned medium of human embryonal lung fibroblasts was purified by phosphocellulose P11 chromatography, followed by p-aminobenzamidine-agarose chromatography. Two forms of plasminogen activators were separated by chromatography on the heparin-sepharose. The high molecular weight form (53 kDa) with specific activity 130 000 IU/mg consists of two polypeptide chains (31 kDa and 20 kDa) and exhibits strong affinity for fibrin-celite, lysine-sepharose and heparin-sepharose. The low molecular weight form (32 kDa, 190 000 IU/mg) also binds to these sorbents, but more weakly, and its properties are very similar to those of low molecular weight urokinase. Activity of both forms of plasminogen activators are inhibited by monoclonal antibodies against urokinase. A number of enzymological chromatographic and immunological properties indicates, that the plasminogen activator from lung fibroblasts is of urokinase type.  相似文献

Zymographic analysis of the supernates from confluent cultures of a rat prostate adenocarcinoma cell line, PA-III, revealed the existence of two molecular forms of specific plasminogen activators, one of molecular weight of approximately 80 000 and another of approximate molecular weight of 45 000, in sodium dodecyl sulfate. The low molecular weight form has been purified 364-fold in 66% yield from the culture medium by a combination of gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 and affinity chromatography on Sepharose 4B-benzamidine. The purified material possessed a specific activity of 192 000 urokinase CTA units mg-1. This enzyme displayed activity toward human Glu1-plasminogen, characterized by a Km of 1.7 +/- 0.2 microM and a Vmax of 0.53 +/- 0.1 pmol of plasmin min-1 unit-1. A synthetic chromogenic substrate, H-D-Ile-Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide (S-2288), was found for the activator. The enzyme possessed a Km of 0.33 mM and a kcat of 55 s-1 for S-2288. The activator was found to be a serine protease, inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate (iPr2PF). At a concentration of 1 mM iPr2PF, and 30 nM enzyme, the half-time of this inhibition was 3.8 min. The 45 000 molecular weight enzyme was found to be inhibited by rabbit antibodies to human urokinase, thus characterizing the activator as a member of the urokinase class. The 80 000 molecular weight enzyme was not neutralized by anti-human urokinase but was neutralized by rabbit anti-human melanoma activator, likely allowing it to be classified as the tissue activator type.  相似文献

Human high molecular weight urokinase, a plasminogen activator, when minimally reduced with 0.01 M 2-mercaptoethanol for 10 h at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C and then carboxymethylated with sodium iodoacetate, gave two chains, a functionally active heavy chain with about 80% of the original activity and a light chain. These two chains were found to be linked by a single interchain disulfide bond. The functionally active heavy chain can be isolated by an affinity chromatography method with [N alpha-(epsilon-aminocaproyl)-DL-homoarginine hexylester]-Sepharose. The light chain, which has no enzyme activity, is not adsorbed to the affinity matrix, whereas the active heavy chain was adsorbed and subsequently eluted. The active heavy chain was further purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. This preparation was found to be homogeneous by both analytical and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the active heavy chain was determined to be 33,000 by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and 31,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. Its specific activity, with L-pyroglutamyl-glycyl-L-arginine-p-nitroanilide, was determined to be 208,000 IU/mg of protein. Approximately 87% active sites were found by p-nitrophenyl-p'-guanidino-benzoate titration with a molar activity of 7.41 X 10(9) IU/mmol of active site. The active heavy chain when compared to low molecular weight urokinase has a similar molecular weight, specific activity, and amino acid composition. The NH2-terminal residue found in the active heavy chain was lysine which was the same as that found in low molecular weight urokinase, whereas the NH2-terminal residues found in high molecular weight urokinase were serine and lysine. Serine is the NH2-terminal residue of the light chain of high molecular weight urokinase. The steady state kinetic parameters of activation of human Glu-plasminogen by the active heavy chain were also similar to low molecular weight urokinase, as were the amidase parameters of these enzymes. The Michaelis constants of activation (Kplg) were 2.11 and 2.21 microM, respectively; the catalytic rate constants of activation (kplg) were 51.7 and 44.1 min-1, respectively, with second order rate constants, kplg/Kplg of 24.5 and 20.2 microM-1 min-1, respectively.  相似文献

The preparation of a new class of covalent hybrid plasminogen activators containing the fibrin-binding domains of human plasmin(ogen) and the catalytic active center of human urokinase will be described. Hybridization of the sulfhydryl form of the NH2-terminal plasmin-derived heavy (A) chain (PlnA) with the sulfhydryl form of the COOH-terminal urokinase-derived active heavy (B) chain (u-PAB) was carried out; a covalent PlnA-u-PAB hybrid plasminogen activator was prepared. The sulfhydryl form of PlnA (PlnA(SH)2) was isolated from reduced Lys-2-plasmin by L-lysine-substituted Sepharose column chromatography. For the isolation of the sulfhydryl form of u-PAB (u-PAB(SH], high molecular weight urokinase was adsorbed onto a benzamidine-Sepharose column and reduced with 100 mM 2-mercaptoethanol on the column. The urokinase NH2-terminal light (A) chain was washed off the column, and the u-PAB(SH) chain was eluted from the column. The specific activity of the isolated u-PAB(SH) chain was determined to be 242 000 IU/mg of protein. The PlnA(SH)2 and u-PAB(SH) chains were mixed at a molar ratio of PlnA(SH)2 to u-PAB(SH) of 3:2; the reducing agents were then removed by gel filtration. The hybridization (reoxidation) reaction was allowed to proceed for 48 h at 4 degrees C. The covalent hybrid activator, in 40% yield, was purified from the reaction mixture to homogeneity, by a sequential affinity chromatography method with L-lysine-substituted Sepharose followed by anti-low molecular weight urokinase IgG-Sepharose, and then gel filtration through Sephadex G-150.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

1. A new serine proteinase, tryase, was isolated from the membrane fraction of a post-nuclear supernatant of rat liver homogenate. The enzyme was solubilized with 1 M-MgCl2 and purified to homogeneity by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and affinity chromatography with soya-bean trypsin inhibitor linked to Sepharose 4B. 2. The enzyme was identified on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels by reaction with radiolabelled di-isopropyl phosphorofluoridate. Unreduced its molecular weight was 32 500, reduced it was 28 000. 3. The enzyme readily hydrolysed azocasein and tripeptide nitroanilide substrates with an arginine or lysine residue adjacent to the leaving group. D-Pro-Phe-Arg-NPhNO2 was used routinely (Km = 0.25 mM). Tryase showed little activity on blocked arginine esters or amides. 4. It was inhibited by di-isopropyl phosphorofluoridate, benzamidine, aprotinin, soya-bean and lima-bean trypsin inhibitors, Ile-Leu-Arg-CH2Cl and Phe-Ala-Arg-CH2Cl. It was not inhibited by Tos-Lys-CH2Cl. 5. Subcellular-fractionation studies showed that tryase was associated with particles similar in their sedimentation properties to lysosomes, but, since it was not present in tritosomes, it was not in the classical lysosome. 6. Rat liver contained other neutral proteinases; one of these was a serine proteinase with an apparent molecular weight of 90 000 on gel chromatography.  相似文献

A protein was prepared from spinach chloroplasts in a highly purified form. The isoelectric point of the protein was 5.2. The apparent molecular weight was estimated to be 33 000 by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea, and 34 000 by gel filtration column chromatography with Sephadex G-100. The protein was provisionally named '33 kilodalton protein' according to the molecular weight. The absorption spectrum of the protein did not show any absorption band in the visible region. No histidine was found in the amino acid analysis of the protein. The 33 kilodalton protein was released from the thylakoid membrane by EDTA-treatment and also by sonic oscillation. The protein was bound to System II particles, but not to System I particles.  相似文献

This is the first report to demonstrate that chloro(N alpha-p-tosyllysyl)methane (TosLys-CH2Cl) inhibits mammalian glandular kallikrein activities. The inhibitory effect of TosLysCH2Cl on purified rat urinary kallikrein was carried out with three assay methods: 1) Tos-Arg-OMe hydrolysis activity measured by a radiochemical method; 2) kininogenase activity using purified bovine low molecular weight kininogen as substrate and the released kinins subsequently measured by radioimmunoassay; 3) bioassay using isolated rat uterus preparation. Purified rat urinary kallikrein was inhibited by TolLysCH2Cl in a dose and time-dependent manner with all three methods used. The inhibition of purified human urinary kallikrein esterase and kinin-releasing activities were also demonstrated. The results indicate that TosLysCH2Cl inactivates kallikrein activity and support the notion that reactive histidine residue(s) participates in the active center of Kallikrein for catalysis.  相似文献

Human insulin-like growth factor I, IGF-I, was produced in Escherichia coli fused to a synthetic IgG-binding peptide The fusion protein is secreted into the medium during fermentation and was initially purified on an IgG-Sepharose column. After hydroxylamine cleavage, IGF-I was purified to homogeneity. During purification, impurities in the form of modified variants of IGF-I were detected and characterized. The closely related impurities were identified to be a misfolded form of IGF-I, having mismatched disulphide bonds, a form with the single methionine residue in IGF-I oxidized to methionine sulphoxide and a variant in which the methionine residue was substituted by a norleucine residue during protein synthesis. A form proteolytically cleaved between two arginine residue was also detected. These impurities were separated from the major component, native IGF-I, by using reverse-phase h.p.l.c. The modified molecules as well as native IGF-I were characterized both as intact molecules and as fragments, after pepsin digestion, using the techniques of plasma desorption m.s., N-terminal sequencing and amino acid analysis. The oxidized form was 90%, and the norleucine analogue was 70%, as potent as native IGF-I in a biological radioreceptor assay, and the form having mismatched disulphides lacked receptor affinity.  相似文献

alpha-D-Galactosidase was isolated from untoasted soybean meal and purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography on N-epsilon-aminoacaproyl alpha-D-galactopyranosylamine-Sepharose. The purified enzyme destroyed the B-specificity of human ovarian cyst B-glycoprotein with an accompanying increase in H-specificity, and converted human type-B erythrocytes to type O. The enzyme consists primarily of a tetramer, molecular weight 150 000 +/- 5 000 at pH 4.0 and of a monomer, molecular weight 40 000 +/- 3 000 at pH 8.0. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in dodecyl sulfate at pH 7.2 distinguished between two types of monomeric unit of similar molecular weight. N-terminal alanine was identified as the sole N-terminal amino acid residue. The enzyme was shown to be devoid of carbohydrate.  相似文献

The tissue activator was extracted with 2 M ammonium thiocyanate and purified by L-arginine methyl ester, concanavalin A and ion-exchange chromatographies, and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration in buffers containing Triton X-100 and/or ammonium thiocyanate. The final preparations had specific activities of 25 000-40 000 IU/mg protein and were shown to be a single band with an apparent molecular weight of 54 00 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with or without reducing agent. When subjected to isoelectric focusing, its major component had an isoelectric point of approx. 8.2 with minor components. (7.8-8.6). The purified tissue activator was a serine protease, dissimilar to urokinase in some respects including antigenicity, strong affinity to insoluble fibrin monomer and hydrolytic activities for synthetic substrates. The crude extract contained another plasminogen activator with antigen identity to urokinase, which constituted approx. 15% of the total activity in crude extract. These findings indicated that human kidney would produce at least two plasminogen activators, namely, the tissue activator as a major plasminogen activator and urokinase.  相似文献

An organic solvent soluble polypeptide has been isolated from photoreceptor complexes and chromatophores of Rhodospirillum rubrum. After extraction of the protein from lyophilized samples with 1:1 chloroform-methanol, it was purified by column chromatography. Its isoelectric point determined by isoelectric focusing was 7.10. When analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified polypeptide ran as a single band of an apparent molecular weight of 12 000. However, according to amino acid analysis, the minimal molecular weight based on one histidine residue per polypeptide is 19 000. The polypeptide contains no cysteine and no tyrosine. Amino acid analysis indicated that three methionines were present per histidine residue and cyanogen bromide cleavage gave four smaller peptides which were isolated by two-dimensional electrophoresis and chromatography. Spectroscopic analysis indicated the presence of three tryptophan residues per histidine and N-bromosuccinamide cleavage also gave four smaller peptides which could be isolated by two-dimensional electrophoresis and chromatography. The C-terminal amino acid was shown to be glycine by two methods, while the N-terminal amino acid appears to be blocked. The organic solvent soluble polypeptide accounts for approximately 50% of the chromatophore protein and seems to bind the antenna bacteriochlorophyll and carotenoid molecules. Using this procedure, organic solvent soluble polypeptides were isolated from several photosynthetic bacteria and were found to have substantially different amino acid contents.  相似文献

A plasminogen activator secreted from human kidney cells was highly purified by affinity chromatography on an anti-urokinase IgG-Sepharose column. The purified plasminogen activator was inactive and had a single-chain structure and a Mr of 50,000. It not only did not incorporate diisopropyl fluorophosphate, which reacts with active site serine residue in urokinase, but also did not bind to p-aminobenzamidine-immobilized CH-Sepharose, to which urokinase bind via its side-chain binding pocket present in active center. The plasminogen activator was converted to the active two-chain form with the same Mr by catalytic amounts of plasmin. Its potential enzymatic activity was quenched completely by anti-urokinase IgG, but not by anti-tissue plasminogen activator Ig. These results indicate that the plasminogen activator is an inactive proenzyme form of human urokinase. Therefore, the plasminogen activator was termed single-chain pro-urokinase. The cleavage of single-chain pro-urokinase by plasmin induced conformational change which followed the generation of reactive serine residue at active site, the increase enzyme activity and the reduction of its high affinity for fibrin. These findings suggest that conformational change occurs in both regions responsible for enzyme activity and affinity for fibrin upon activation of single-chain pro-urokinase.  相似文献

A specific D-asparaginase was isolated and crystallized from Thermus aquaticus strain T351. It is present in larger amounts than the L-asparaginase. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 60 000, an isoelectric point of 4.8 and a Km of 2 mM. It has 6 disulphide bonds/molecule, and a histidine residue at the active site. It is inhibited by keto acids and by high salt concentrations.  相似文献

The cysteine biosynthetic pathway is essential for survival of the protist pathogen Entamoeba histolytica, and functions by producing cysteine for countering oxidative attack during infection in human hosts. Serine acetyltransferase (SAT) and O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase (OASS) are involved in cysteine biosynthesis and are present in three isoforms each. While EhSAT1 and EhSAT2 are feedback inhibited by end product cysteine, EhSAT3 is nearly insensitive to such inhibition. The active site residues of EhSAT1 and of EhSAT3 are identical except for position 208, which is a histidine residue in EhSAT1 and a serine residue in EhSAT3. A combination of comparative modeling, multiple molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculation studies showed a difference in binding energies of native EhSAT3 and of a S208H-EhSAT3 mutant for cysteine. Mutants have also been generated in vitro, replacing serine with histidine at position 208 in EhSAT3 and replacing histidine 208 with serine in EhSAT1. These mutants showed decreased affinity for substrate serine, as indicated by Km, compared to the native enzymes. Inhibition kinetics in the presence of physiological concentrations of serine show that IC50 of EhSAT1 increases by about 18 folds from 9.59 µM for native to 169.88 µM for H208S-EhSAT1 mutant. Similar measurements with EhSAT3 confirm it to be insensitive to cysteine inhibition while its mutant (S208H-EhSAT3) shows a gain of cysteine inhibition by 36% and the IC50 of 3.5 mM. Histidine 208 appears to be one of the important residues that distinguish the serine substrate from the cysteine inhibitor.  相似文献

In crude cell-free extracts of aerobically grown E. coli K-12, the non-allosteric form of 6-phosphofructokinase has a tetrameric molecular weight 140 000 with a low affinity (less than 5%) for the blue dextran chromophore--Cibacron Blue. The allosteric form has the same tetrameric molecular weight, but possesses a strong affinity for the blue dextran chromophore. Under conditions of prolonged storage, purification procedures of mild heat treatment (50 degrees C), the non-allosteric form converts to an active dimer (mol. wt 67 000), which binds to Cibacron Blue (less than 90%). Acid precipitation plus heat treatment prevents the conversion to the dimeric form and retains low Cibacron Blue affinity. These results are consistent with the isolation of a low molecular weight form and suggest that the inherent lability of this enzyme might be due to both non-specific proteolytic modification and a weak quaternary structure.  相似文献

The cytoplasmic membrane-bound hydrogenase of the facultative anaerobe, Proteus mirabilis, has been solubilized and purified to homogeneity. The purified enzyme exhibited a maximal specific activity of about 780 mumol H2 oxidized/min per mg protein (benzyl viologen reduction). The hydrogenase has a molecular weight of 205 000 and is composed of two subunits with a molecular weight of 63 000 and two of 33 000. The absorption spectrum of the enzyme was characteristic of non-heme iron proteins. The millimolar extinction coefficients at 400 and 280 nm are 106 and 390, respectively. The hydrogenase has about 24 iron atoms and 24 acid-labile sulfide atoms/molecule. Amino acid analyses revealed the presence of 39 half-cystine residues/molecule and a preponderance of acidic amino acids. The hydrogenase in its oxidized form exhibits an EPR signal of the HiPIP-type with g values at 2.025 and 2.018. Upon reduction with either dithionite or H2 the signal disappears; no other signals were detectable.  相似文献

Cholate extracts of human erythrocyte membranes (Lundahl, P., Acevedo, F., Fröman, G. and Phutrakul, S. (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 644, 101–107) were fractionated by molecular sieve chromatography on Sepharose 6B, and the size and molecular weight of the active d-glucose transporter were estimated. The eluent contained 10 or 12.5 mM cholate, since higher concentrations inactivated the glucose transporter, and lower concentrations resulted in aggregation. The chromatographic distribution of the transport activity was reproducible, but was broader than one would expect for a homogeneous component. In the presence of 20 mM EDTA and 5 mM dithioerythritol, a combination which affords a highly stable transport activity, a molecular weight of 400 000 ± 20 000 (Stokes' radius 5.9 nm) was estimated for the smallest active component. This value represents an upper limit, since the molecular weight of a non-spherical component would have been overestimated, and since bound cholate was calculated to represent about 12% of the molecular weight. The activity was completely recovered upon rechromatography. In 10 mM EDTA and 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, the estimated molecular weight of the smallest active component was 210 000 ± 15 000, and this component was not stable upon rechromatography in 10 mM EDTA and 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol. In the absence of chelating and reducing agents, cholate extracts from membranes which had been kept for 5 days at 4°C showed three additional active components smaller than 200 000 in molecular weight. Most of the phospholipids eluted later than the active components of molecular weight 400 000 or 210 000, in all experiments. Electrophoretic analysis in dodecyl sulfate of the chromatographic eluents indicates that at least one of the band 3-polypeptides (nomenclature according to Steck, T.L. (1974) J. Cell Biol. 62, 1–19) is a component of the active transporter. This band 3-polypeptide, which we denote 3.3, has an apparent molecular weight of 88 000. The stable transporter of molecular weight 400 000 might be a tetramer of the 3.3-polypeptide. Alternatively, a dimer of the 3.3-polypeptide in complex with lipids might account for this molecular weight. If the 3.3-polypeptide is the transporter subunit and if it binds cytochalasin B with high affinity (1.8 · 105 sites/cell) the recovered activity per 3.3-polypeptide is around 40% A degradation product of the 3.3-component (possibly a 4.5-component) might account for the unstable active transporter of molecular weight 210 000.  相似文献

1. Pig heart lactate dehydrogenase is inhibited by addition of one equivalent of diethyl pyrocarbonate. The inhibition is due to the acylation of a unique histidine residue which is 10-fold more reactive than free histidine. No other amino acid side chains are modified. 2. The carbethoxyhistidine residue slowly decomposes and the enzyme activity reappears. 3. The essential histidine residue is only slightly protected by the presence of NADH but is completely protected when substrate and substrate analogues bind to the enzyme-NADH complex. The protection is interpreted in terms of a model in which substrates can only bind to the enzyme in which the histidine residue is protonated and is thus not available for reaction with the acylating agent. 4. The apparent pK(a) of the histidine residue in the apoenzyme is 6.8+/-0.2. In the enzyme-NADH complex it is 6.7+/-0.2. 5. Acylated enzyme binds NADH with unchanged affinity. The enzyme is inhibited because substrates and substrate analogues cannot bind at the acylated histidine residue in the enzyme-NADH complex.  相似文献
