Isolation of tyrosine-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release-inhibiting factor 1 from bovine brain tissue 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Although Tyr-melanocyte-stimulating hormone release-inhibiting factor 1 (MIF-1) (Tyr-Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2) can exert a number of biological actions in the brain and elsewhere, it has never been isolated from any tissue. Accordingly, we attempted to purify it from acetic acid extracts of bovine brain tissue by gel filtration chromatography and several different high performance liquid chromatographic systems. Peptide content was followed by a specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay with an antibody that was generated against synthetic Tyr-MIF-1. In each of the five applied high performance liquid chromatographic systems, the immunoreactive fractions coincided exactly with the elution time of synthetic Tyr-MIF-1 in the control runnings. The structure of the isolated peptide was identified by microsequence analysis as the tetrapeptide Tyr-Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2 and shown to be biologically active. 相似文献

1. An iron-binding glycoprotein has been purified to homogeneity from porcine gastric mucosa. 2. The molecular weight (80,000), amino acid composition, carbohydrate content, N-terminal amino acid sequence, tryptic map, stoichiometry of iron binding (2 mol/mol), visible absorption spectrum of the ferric complex and chromatographic behaviour of the gastric protein are all strikingly similar to the corresponding properties of porcine serum transferrin. 3. The quantity of the gastric protein (1.3 mg/g wet weight) present in the gastric mucosa suggests that it is not serum transferrin (plasma concentration 1.8 mg/ml) contaminating the tissue. 4. A role for transferrin in the uptake of dietary iron by the gastrointestinal tract is proposed. 相似文献

Peptide with C-terminal tyrosine amide was isolated from porcine brain by acid extraction and sequential steps of reverse phase HPLC. Microsequence, amino acid and mass spectral analyses revealed the structure: Ac-Ala-Ser-Glu-Lys-Arg-Pro-Ser-Glu-Arg-His-Gly-Ser-Lys- Tyr-amide. Since this peptide had the identical sequence to N-terminus of porcine myelin basic protein (pMBP) 1-14, we have designated porcine myelin peptide amide 14 (pMPA14). The final HPLC step yielded 20 micrograms of homogeneous peptide preparation from 20 kg brain tissue. Unlike other amidated peptides, pMPA14 may be produced by non enzymatic mechanism or unknown amidating enzyme. This unique amidation seems to occur exclusively to MBP in the brain. 相似文献

Different peptides were purified by chromatographic procedures from the skin-secretory glands of the frog Phyllomedusa distincta. These are the first peptides reported from this frog species. Their primary structure was determined by a combination of automated Edman degradation and mass spectrometry. Peptide Q2 contains 25 amino acid residues, peptide Q1 and L have 28 each, peptide M contains 31, and peptide K has 33 amino acid residues. They all showed potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, presenting minimal inhibitory concentrations from 0.6 to 40 microM, when tested against Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Peptides K, L, and Q1 were chemically synthesized and shown to be active. 相似文献

Conformation and domain structure of the non-histone chromosomal proteins, HMG 1 and 2. Isolation of two folded fragments from HMG 1 and 2 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Proteins HMG 1 and 2 have been digested with trypsin and two major products, stable to further digestion between 8 min and 2 h, have been purified (peptides A and B). Peptide B from HMG 1 has been identified as residues 12-75 and peptide A as residues 94/96-169 by amino acid analyses and Edman degradations. Peptide B spontaneously folds with the formation of 51% helix and exhibits the majority of the perturbed NMR resonances characteristic of folded intact HMG 1. Peptide B is stably folded in the presence of 150 mM NaCl between pH 3 and 10, like intact HMG 1. Peptide A forms 30% alpha-helix and also exhibits tertiary folding but is denatured by pH 10. The 11 N-terminal residues removed by trypsin contain both sites of post-synthetic acetylation (residues 2 and 11), a situation very similar to that found with core histones. It is proposed that HMG 1 and 2 consist of four structural domains, viz: (a) residues 1-11, (b) residues 12 to approximately 75, (c) residues 94-169 and (d) the very acidic region beyond residue 169. The instability of peptide A may mean that it is not a truly independent domain. No structural similarities to histone H1 are therefore observed in HMG 1 and 2. 相似文献

Identification of the G protein-activating domain of the natriuretic peptide clearance receptor (NPR-C). 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
We have shown recently that the 37-amino acid intracellular domain of the single-transmembrane, natriuretic peptide clearance receptor, NPR-C, which is devoid of kinase and guanylyl cyclase activities, activates selectively Gi1 and Gi2 in gastric and tenia coli smooth muscle. In this study, we have used synthetic peptide fragments of the N-terminal, C-terminal, and middle regions of the cytoplasmic domain of NPR-C to identify the G protein-activating sequence. A 17-amino acid peptide of the middle region (Arg469-Arg485), denoted Peptide 4, which possesses two N-terminal arginine residues and a C-terminal B-B-X-X-B motif (where B and X are basic and non-basic residues, respectively) bound selectively to Gi1 and Gi2, activated phospholipase C-beta3 via the betagamma subunits, inhibited adenylyl cyclase, and induced smooth muscle contraction, in similar fashion to the selective NPR-C ligand, cANP4-23. A similar sequence (Peptide 3), but with a partial C-terminal motif, had minimal activity. Sequences which possessed either the N-terminal basic residues (Peptide 1) or the C-terminal B-B-X-X-B motif (Peptide 2) were inactive. Peptide 2, however, inhibited G protein activation and cellular responses mediated by the stimulatory Peptide 4 and by cANP4-23, suggesting that the B-B-X-X-B motif mediated binding but not activation of G protein, thus causing Peptide 2 to act as a competitive inhibitor of G protein activation. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine the resting and exercise response patterns of plasma Peptide F immunoreactivity (ir) to altitude exposure (4300 m) and caffeine ingestion (4 mg.kg b.w.-1). Nine healthy male subjects performed exercise tests to exhaustion (80-85% VO2max) at sea level (50 m), during an acute altitude exposure (1 hr, hypobaric chamber, 4300 m) and after a chronic (17-day sojourn, 4300 m) altitude exposure. Using a randomized, double-blind/placebo experimental design, a placebo or caffeine drink was ingested 1 hour prior to exercise. Exercise (without caffeine) significantly (p less than 0.05) increased plasma Peptide F ir values during exercise at chronic altitude only. Caffeine ingestion significantly increased plasma Peptide F ir concentrations during exercise and in the postexercise period at sea level. Conversely caffeine ingestion at altitude resulted in significant reductions in the postexercise plasma Peptide F ir values. The results of this study demonstrate that the exercise and recovery response patterns of plasma Peptide F ir may be significantly altered by altitude exposure and caffeine ingestion. These data support further study examining relationships between Peptide F (and other enkephalin-containing polypeptides) and epinephrine release in response to these types of physiological stresses. 相似文献

High-pressure ('performance') liquid chromatography has been used to investigate the reverse-phase chromatographic behaviour of peptides, ranging in length from 2 to 65 amino acid residues, which have originated from primary-sequence determinations or solution/solid-phase syntheses. By using a pyridine/formate-pyridine/acetate/propan-1-ol buffer system, as previously described [Hughes, Winterhalter & Wilson (1979) FEBS Lett. 108, 81-86], the influence of various experimental parameters were examined. (a) Peptide retention was observed to be temperature-independent between 25 and 55 degrees C. (b) The dependence of chromatographic retention on pH decreases with increasing peptide hydrophobicity. (c) Chromatographic results from C8- and C18-chain-length, as well as from 5 micrometers- and 10 micrometers-particle-size, supports were comparable. (d) The hydrophobic strength of the organic solvent in the mobile phase was observed to decrease: propan-1-ol approximately equal to propan-2-ol greater than acetonitrile much greater than methanol. (e) When gradient rates (% of buffer B/unit time) were systematically decreased, peptide retention decreased in a hyperbolic manner. Comparisons of the peptides chromatographed with respect to their measured retention properties and calculated hydrophobicities were performed by computer analysis. Deviation of peptide chromatographic behaviour was observed to be essentially independent of hydrophobicity, chain length and charge. On the basis of the measured retention properties of the chromatographed peptides, hydrophobic constants for the various amino acid side chains were determined and compared with similar constants available from the literature. 相似文献

CD22 is a B-cell specific membrane glycoprotein that mediates homotypic and heterotypic cell adhesion; it also regulates B-cell
receptor (BCR)-mediated signals. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) directed at the ligand binding domain of CD22 initiate CD22-mediated
signal transduction and apoptosis in B-cell lymphomas (NHL). Amino acid analysis of the complimentary determining regions
(CDRs) of six different anti-CD22 ligand blocking mAb revealed a high level of sequence conservation. The heavy chain CDRs
1, 2, and 3 are 85, 40, and 38% conserved, respectively; light chain CDRs 1, 2, and 3, are 95, 90 and 90% conserved, respectively.
Based on these conserved sequences, five peptides were designed and synthesized. Only the sequence derived from heavy chain
CDR2 (Peptide 5) demonstrated significant B-cell binding. Peptide 5 bound to both malignant and primary B-cells with very
little T-cell binding. The affinity had a Km of 5 × 10−6 M. Peptide 5 mediated killing of several NHL cell lines to a degree similar to that of the parent mAb (HB22.7). Peptide 5’s
loop structure was shown to be crucial for B-cell binding and ligand blocking. Mutational analysis revealed that most Peptide
5 amino acids were critical for B cell binding. Using a CD22 transfected COS cell line, we demonstrated CD22-specific binding
and CD22 ligand blocking to a degree similar to HB22.7. Finally Peptide 5 was used as a vehicle to deliver a pro-apoptotic
peptide into NHL cells. Peptide 5 was fused to a BH3 death domain-containing peptide which demonstrated more effective NHL
cell killing than the parent peptide. 相似文献

Formation of isoaspartate 99 in bovine and porcine somatotropins 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Asparagine 99 in bovine (BST) and porcine somatotropins (PST) was converted to an isoaspartate residue during incubation at neutral or alkalinepH. Isoaspartate 99 BST or isoaspartate 99 PST was resolved from the normal somatotropin by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The altered peptide of residues 96–108 which contains isoaspartate 99 was detected by tryptic peptide mapping of the modified BST or PST. Amino acid sequencing, amino acid analysis, mass spectrometry, and co-elution with a chemically synthesized peptide containing isoaspartate 99 were used to demonstrate the existence of isoaspartate in the modified peptides. Peptide bond cleavage between Asn 99 and Ser 100 also occurred during incubation of BST and PST at neutral or alkalinepH. This chemically cleaved product was resolved on reversed-phase HPLC from both the isoaspartate 99 and normal somatotropin molecules. 相似文献

Unquestionably, the purification of polypeptides by chromatographic methods is a considerable bottleneck in their preparation. Peptides synthesised by solid phase synthesis typically contain chromatographically similar impurities that complicate purification by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) techniques. We report on the application of a slow gradient HPLC protocol that allows, in a single chromatographic step, the purification of hundreds of milligrammes of material. This technique was applied to an extensive collection of synthetic polypeptides some incorporating non‐proteinogenic functionality. In all cases examined, the peptides were not only obtained in high purity peptides but were also recovered in multi‐milligramme amounts.

The peptides that represent the major components with alpha-endorphin- and gamma-endorphin-like immunoreactivity in the rat neurointermediate lobe were purified to homogeneity and chemically characterized. Rat neurointermediate lobes were extracted by boiling and homogenization in acetic acid. Peptide purification was based on gel filtration, followed by two high-pressure liquid chromatography steps. Pools containing peptides with the size and immunochemical properties of alpha- and gamma-endorphins were resolved by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography into multiple immunoreactive components. The major forms were finally purified by paired-ion high-pressure liquid chromatography. The amino acid compositions of these peptides fitted the beta-endorphin sequences 1-16 and 1-17. Tryptic mapping, aminopeptidase M digestion, chromatographic characterization, and immunoreactivity to an antiserum recognizing the N alpha-acetylated terminus of endorphins showed that these peptides were indistinguishable from N alpha-acetyl-alpha-endorphin (N alpha-acetyl-beta-endorphin 1-16), and N alpha-acetyl-gamma-endorphin (N alpha-acetyl-beta-endorphin 1-17). The NH2-terminal residue of the peptides was identified by mass spectrometry as N alpha-acetyltyrosine, substantiating the identity of the peptides. The results demonstrate the existence of N alpha-acetylated alpha- and gamma-endorphin as endogenous peptides in the neurointermediate lobe of the rat pituitary gland. In view of their occurrence and biological properties they should be considered significant members of the pro-opiomelanocortin family. 相似文献

Size exclusion chromatographic analyses showed that Ca2+‐free VILIP‐1 contained both monomeric and dimeric forms, while no appreciable dimerization was noted with Ca2+‐free VILIP‐3. Swapping of EF‐hands 3 and 4 of VILIP‐1 with those of VILIP‐3 caused the inability of the resulting chimeric protein to form dimeric protein. Nonreducing SDS‐PAGE analyses revealed that most of the dimeric VILIP‐1 was noncovalently bound together. Reduced glutathione (GSH)/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) treatment notably enhanced the formation of disulfide‐linked VILIP‐1 dimer, while Ca2+ and Mg2+ enhanced disulfide dimerization of VILIP‐1 marginally in the presence of thiol compounds. Cys‐187 at the C‐terminus of VILIP‐1 contributed greatly to form S‐S‐crosslinked dimer as revealed by mutagenesis studies. The ability of GSH/GSSG‐treated VILIP‐1 to activate guanylyl cyclase B was reduced by substituting Cys‐187 with Ala. Together with disulfide dimer of VILIP‐1 detected in rat brain extracts, our data may imply the functional contribution of disulfide dimer to the interaction of VILIP‐1 with its physiological target(s).

Ferritin was isolated from porcine heart, liver and spleen. Reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography of the ferritin subunits yielded three chromatographic fractions. The relative proportions of the three chromatographic fractions were different for each tissue ferritin. These results support the model which proposes a combination of (at least) two subunit types as the basis for the existence of isoferritins. 相似文献

Peptide and protein sequence analysis using a combination of gas-phase ion-ion chemistry and tandem MS is described. Samples are converted to multiply charged ions by ESI and then allowed to react with fluoranthene radical anions in a quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometer. Electron transfer from the radical anion to the multiply charged peptide or protein promotes random fragmentation along the amide backbone that is independent of peptide or protein size, sequence, or the presence of post-translational modifications. Examples are provided that demonstrate the utility of electron-transfer dissociation for characterizing post-translational modifications and for identifying proteins in mixtures on a chromatographic timescale (500 ms/protein). 相似文献

A pentapeptide, Boc-Leu-Ac8c-Ala-Leu-Ac8c-OMe 1, an octapeptide, Boc-Leu-Ac8c-Ala-Leu-Ac8c-Ala-Leu-Ac8c-OMe 2 and a tripeptide, Boc-Aib-Ac8c-Aib-OMe 3 containing the 1-aminocyclooctane-1-carboxylic acid residue (Ac8c) were synthesized and conformationally characterized by x-ray diffraction studies in the crystal state. Peptides 1 and 2 were also studied by NMR in CDC13 solution. Peptide 1 adopts a purely 3(10)-helical conformation in crystals, stabilized by three intramolecular 1 <-- 4 hydrogen bonds. Peptide 2 in crystals is largely 3(10)-helical with distortion in the backbone at the N-terminus by the insertion of a water molecule between Ac8c (2) CO and Ala (6) NH groups. Peptide 3 forms a C10-ring structure, i.e. a type III (III') beta- turn conformation stabilized by an intramolecular 1 <-- 4 hydrogen bond. Five cyclooctane rings assume boat-chair conformations, whereas the sixth [Ac8c(8) in 2] is appreciably distorted, resembling a chiral intermediate in the pseudorotational pathway from the boat-chair to the twisted boat-chair conformation. Internal bond angles of the cyclooctane rings are appreciably distorted from the tetrahedral value, a characteristic feature of the cyclooctane ring. Peptide 1 crystallized in the space group P212121 with a = 11.900(4) A, b = 18.728(6) A, c = 20.471(3) A and Z = 4. The final R1 and wR2 values are 0.0753 and 0.2107, respectively, for 3901 observed reflections [Fo > or = 3 sigma (Fo)]. Peptide 2 crystallized in space group P21 with a = 12.961(5) A, b = 17.710(10) A, c = 15.101(7) A, beta = 108.45(4) degrees and Z = 2. The final R1 and wR2 values are 0.0906 and 0.1832, respectively, for 2743 observed reflections [Fo > or = 3sigma (Fo)]. 1H-NMR studies on both the peptides strongly suggest the persistence of 3(10)-helical conformations in solution. Peptide 3 crystallized in the space group P21/n, with a = 10.018(1) A, b = 20.725(1) A, c = 12.915(1) A and Z = 4. The final R1 and wR2 values are 0.0411 and 0.1105, respectively, for 3634 observed reflections [Fo > or = 4sigma (Fo)]. 相似文献

Sequence analysis of rat hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing factor with the o-phthalaldehyde strategy 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Sequence analysis was performed on a 41-residue polypeptide that has been identified as the predominant form of high intrinsic corticotropin-releasing activity of rat hypothalamus. The sequence of residues 1-39 of this corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) was determined by Edman degradation of a partially purified peptide in a highly sensitive spinning cup sequencer after selective blocking of CRF or its main contaminant with o-phthalaldehyde. This approach was validated by peptide mapping of CRF of a highly purified preparation. Peptide mapping was accomplished with reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography of CRF fragments obtained by digestion with clostripain. The identities of the fragments cleaved from CRF were established by chromatographic comparison with synthetic peptides, amino acid analysis, and Edman degradation. On the basis of these experiments, the primary structure of rat hypothalamic CRF was established to be H-Ser-Glu-Glu-Pro-Pro-Ile-Ser-Leu-Asp-Leu-Thr-Phe-His-Leu- Leu-Arg-Glu-Val-Leu-Glu-Met-Ala-Arg-Ala-Glu-Gln-Leu-Ala-Gln-Gln-Ala-His-Ser-Asn - Arg-Lys-Leu-Met-Glu-Ile-Ile-NH2. It is expected that the o-phthalaldehyde strategy will facilitate the sequence analysis of partially purified peptides containing proline residues. 相似文献

Human and porcine somatotropin were compared by different methods. Both hormones show biological activity in the Greenspan assay. Molecular masses, N- and C-terminal amino acids as well as the chromatographic patterns on ion exchange cellulose at room temperature are identical. Chromatography in the cold results in different behaviour of the two hormones. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrofocusing also show characteristic differences. The quantitative amino acid analyses of the two hormones are different. The N-terminal amino acid sequences estimated up to position 20 show identity only in 13 positions. 相似文献

Deglycosylation and proteolysis of photolabeled D2 dopamine receptors of the porcine anterior pituitary 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dopamine D2 receptor binding subunits of the porcine anterior pituitary were visualized by autoradiography following photoaffinity labeling with [125I]N-azidophenethylspiperone and sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The ligand binding subunit comprising the pituitary D2 dopamine receptor migrated as two distinct bands of apparent Mr approximately equal to 150,000 and 118,000, substantially higher than neuronal D2 receptor subunits from porcine or canine brain. The glycoprotein nature of pituitary D2 receptor binding subunits was investigated by the use of exo- and endo-glycosidase treatments and peptide mapping experiments. Photoaffinity labeled polypeptides of the anterior pituitary were susceptible to both neuraminidase and alpha-mannosidase digestion as indexed by their increased electrophoretic mobility on sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gels, and suggests the presence of both complex type and terminal mannose carbohydrate residues. Moreover, the additive effects of sequential treatment with these enzymes suggests that both types of carbohydrate chains are present on each receptor peptide. N-linked deglycosylation of pituitary D2 photolabeled receptors with glycopeptidase-F produced a further increase in the mobility of the labeled protein to apparent Mr approximately equal to 44,000, similar to that of deglycosylated D2 binding subunits of porcine and canine brain. Peptide mapping experiments following limited proteolysis with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase and papain demonstrated that deglycosylated D2 dopamine receptors (Mr = 44,000), in different tissues and species, were homologous. Taken together, these data suggest that despite the differences in the overall molecular weight and tissue specific glycosylation pattern of pituitary D2 dopamine receptors, the primary structure of mammalian D2 receptors appears to be conserved. 相似文献
