meso-α,?-Diaminopimelate D-dehydrogenase was inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents such as p-chloromercuribenzoate and HgCl2. Two sulfhydryl groups were titrated per molecule in the presence and absence of 6 M guanidine hydrochloride: the enzyme contained one sulfhydryl group per subunit. Modification of the sulfhydryl groups with p-chloromercuribenzoate, 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid), 4,4'-dithiopyridine, N-ethylmaleimide, and iodoacetic acid was accompanied by a loss of enzyme activity. However, modification of sulfhydryl groups of the enzyme with cyanide did not affect the activity. Thus, the introduction of bulky or charged substituents to sulfhydryl groups decreased the catalytic activity of the enzyme, but modification of the groups with the small and uncharged group, a cyano group, did not. The sulfhydryl groups did not play an essential role in catalysis. 相似文献

When mitochondria are incubated with radioactively labeled mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), the enzyme is taken up into the organelles. Mersalyl and p-hydroxymercuriphenyl sulfonic acid, but not N-ethylmaleimide or ethacrynic acid, decrease the extent of this uptake. Inhibition of the uptake by low concentrations of mercurial reagents is due to blockage of a single sulfhydryl group per monomer of the enzyme. Blockage of mitochondrial thiols does not inhibit uptake of the enzyme. A single sulfhydryl group out of a total of six per monomer of the native enzyme reacts with 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid). This is the same sulfhydryl group that reacts with low levels of mercurial reagents with consequent inhibition of uptake of the enzyme into mitochondria but without effect on the catalytic activity. N-Ethylmaleimide does not react with this group. N-Ethylmaleimide reacts with a different sulfhydryl group with concomitant decrease in enzymic activity but with no effect on uptake of the enzyme into mitochondria. High levels of mercurial reagents similarly decrease enzymic activity. Unlike the effect on uptake into mitochondria, the inhibition by mercurial reagents of enzymic activity is not reversed by treatment with cysteine. The significance of these observations with respect to the mechanism of uptake of aspartate aminotransferase into mitochondria is discussed, and comparisons are made between the reactivities of sulfhydryl groups in rat liver aspartate aminotransferase and in the enzymes from other animals. 相似文献

The sensitivities of three enzymes of the β-ketoadipate pathway to inactivation by N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) were determined in vivo and in vitro under conditions compatible with mutagenesis.One enzyme, β-ketoadipate enol-lactone hydrolase, is very sensitive to inactivation by low concentrations of MNNG. This enzyme is also sensitive to inactivation by N-ethylmaleimide and mercurial reagents. The free sulfhydryl content of native enol-lactone hydrolase was determined to be two moles free sulfhydryl per mole of enzyme. A 95% inactivation of enol-lactone hydrolase by MNNG results in a masking of slightly more than one mole sulfhydryl per mole enzyme.Muconate lactonizing enzyme is moderately sensitive to inactivation by low concentrations of MNNG, but is not inactivated by sulfhydryl reagents. Muconolactone isomerase is resistant to inactivation by low concentrations of MNNG and is not inactivated by sulfhydryl reagents. Upon exposure to high concentrations of MNNG, muconolactone isomerase is rapidly inactivated. Spectrophotometric evidence indicates the lysine residues are nitroguanidinated proportionally with a loss in the enzymatic activity.These data indicate that the exposure of cells to low concentrations of MNNG should affect the activity of enzymes with essential sulfhydryl groups. 相似文献

Diamine oxidase from Euphorbia characias latex contains two sulfhydryl groups per mole of dimeric enzyme. The sulfhydryl groups are unreactive in the native enzyme but can be readily titrated by 4,4′-dithiodipyridine after protein denaturation, or anaerobically in the presence of the amine substrate. In the presence of both substrates (diamine and oxygen) they react sluggishly. The sulfhydryl groups show different reactivity toward various reagents, but in every case their modification inhibits catalytic activity. The insensitivity of the native enzyme to specific reagents suggests that the sulfhydryl groups are positioned in the interior of the protein and shielded from the solvent. Their reactivity in the presence of the amine substrate could be attributed to a conformational change occurring upon substrate binding or after substrate oxidation. 相似文献

Amino acid analysis and chemical modification of the crystalline quinolinate phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.19) from hog liver were performed. The enzyme contained 29 residues of half cystine per mol. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. The number of reactive (exposed) sulfhydryl group was determined to be 10.2 and total sulfhydryl group was to be 25.2 per mol by using 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid). The enzyme activity was also inhibited by lysine residue-, histidine residue-, and arginine residue-modifying reagents. These results and the effect of preincubation with the substrates on chemical modifications suggest that the lysine residue, histidine residue and sulfhydryl group may be closely related to the binding site of quinolinic acid. 相似文献

Purified D-alanine carboxypeptidase IA of Escherichia coli is inhibited by penicillin G and binds penicillin G reversibly. The binding of penicillin to the enzyme is relatively insensitive to sulfhydryl reagents, while release of penicillin from the enzyme is severely inhibited by these reagents. The inhibition of release parallels the inhibition of carboxypeptidase activity by the sulfhydryl reagents. In the presence of the sulfhydryl reagent p-chloromercuribenzoate, an acyl-enzyme intermediate, produced by the reaction of carboxypeptidase IA with diacetyl-L-lysyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine, accumulates and can be isolated. These results indicate that binding of penicillin to carboxypeptidase IA occurs by an acylation step of the carboxypeptidase reaction, while penicillin release occurs by a deacylation step of the reaction. Only the latter is inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. 相似文献

Two aminopeptidases, I and II, were found in the acidic fraction of the yeast autolysate, adsorbed on DEAE-cellose and DEAE-Sephadex A&50. Aminopeptidase I was purified as a single protein with a molecular weight of 200,000. The enzyme required Zn for its activity and hydrolyzed dipeptides, and a polypeptide (glucagon). It also hydrolyzed amides, naphthylamides and the p-nitroanilide of amino acids. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. Aminopeptidase II seemed also to be a metal enzyme with a molecular weight of 34,000. The enzyme hydrolyzed the dipeptide and tetrapeptide but not leucine-p-nitroanilide. 相似文献

Citrate synthase of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.), and a marine blue-green alga (Coccochloris elabens) is inhibited by sulfhydryl binding reagents. The inhibitions are partially reversed by dithiothreitol. Pig heart citrate synthase is only slightly inhibited by the same reagents and this is completely reversed by dithiothreitol. All citrate synthases in this study are inhibited by adenosine triphosphate. The inhibition is relieved by increasing the concentration of acetyl coenzyme A. Citrate synthase of wheat, cauliflower, bean, and pig heart was estimated by gel filtration to have a molecular weight of 100,000 daltons. The Coccochloris citrate synthase was estimated to have a molecular weight greater than 250,000 daltons. The evolutionary implications of these findings are discussed. This enzyme is comparable in size to the 100,000 dalton mammalian enzyme (Singh et al. 1970) making it somewhat larger than the 65,000 dalton mango enzyme (Srere et al. 1971). The PHMB-treated enzyme also shows changes in its electrophoretic properties (Greenblatt and Sarkissian unpublished). The evidence presented here demonstrates that citrate synthase of various plants is sensitive to sulfhydryl reagents suggesting that sulfhydryl reactivity is a not unusual property of plant citrate synthase. In addition we show that molecular weight as large as or larger than that reported in microbial systems can occur in a blue-green alga. 相似文献

Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.28) specified by the fi? R-factor (type II) is highly sensitive to sulfhydryl reagents. When this variant was treated with stoichiometric amounts of 2, 2′dithiobispyridine, 90% of the enzymatic activity was lost with concomitant introduction of 0.9to 1.0 thiopyridine groups per mole of enzyme protomer. In the presence of stoichiometric amounts of the substrate, chloramphenicol, the enzyme was neither inactivated nor modified by the sulfhydryl reagents. Acetyl-coenzyme A exerted no protective effects when present in the reaction mixture. The enzyme was also inactivated by cyanylation with a stoichiometric amount of 2-nitro-5-thiocyanobenzoic acid. Labeling native type II enzyme with iodo[14C]acetamide and subsequently subjecting it to peptic digestion yielded one radioactive peptide. This cysteine-containing peptide had the same sequence as that found near the cysteine close to the chloramphenicol binding site of the commonly occurring type 1 enzyme. In conclusion, this cysteine residue is essential for the catalytic activity of both types of enzyme and is located in or near the chloramphenicol binding site. It also seems that the cysteine in type II is more sensitive to sulfhydryl reagents than the homologous cysteine in type I, probably because it is more available for modification. 相似文献

An enzyme, comenic aldehyde dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the oxidation of comenic aldehyde to comenic acid was partially purified from cell extract of Arthrobacter ureafaciens K-1.The enzyme was purified 31-fold at Sephadex G-100 filtration step, 112-fold at DEAE-Sephadex A-50 fractionation step, and recovery of the activity was 73.3% and 38.5% respectively.NADP and magnesium ion were essential for the oxidation. The enzyme shows optimum activity at pH 7.8. Enzyme activity was extremely sensitive to sulfhydryl reagents such as p-chloromercuribenzoate and monoiodoacetate. l-Cysteine or dithiothreitol protected the enzyme from p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibition. Carbonyl reagents, such as hydroxylamine and semicarbazide, inhibit the enzyme reaction by formation of addition compounds between carbonyl reagents and aldehyde group of the substrate. The enzyme was completely inactivated after heating for 5 min at 40°C The Km for 5-methoxy comenic aldehyde is 2.5×10?6 m, and for NADP is 0.4×1O?6 m. The reaction product, 5-methoxy comenic acid was identified by paperchromatography. The characterization of the enzyme has been carried out by using 5-methoxy comenic aldehyde as the substrate in stead of comenic aldehyde. 相似文献

Liver microsomal cytochrome P-448 purified from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats or rabbits contained seven free sulfhydryl groups per mole of enzyme as determined by amino acid analysis or by spectrophotometric titrations with 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitroben-zoic acid), 4,4′-dipyridinedisulfide, 2-nitro-5-thiocyanobenzoic acid, and p-mercuribenzoate. The rat cytochrome P-448-catalyzed hydroxylation of benzo[a]pyrene was inhibited 70% after modification of the enzyme with 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) but was unaffected after titration of the enzyme with other sulfhydryl reagents, suggesting that the sulfhydryl groups may not be essential for catalysis. On the other hand, the rabbit cytochrome P-448-catalyzed hydroxylation of benzo[a]pyrene was inhibited following the modification of this enzyme with all of the sulfhydryl reagents listed above. Whether the loss in catalytic activity in this case is due to the essential role of the sulfhydryl groups in catalysis or to the steric hindrance or conformational change due to the substituent is uncertain. 相似文献

Some enzymatic properties of purified alkaline proteinase from Aspergillus sojae were investigated. The optimum pH for casein digestion was 11.0. The enzyme activity was almost completely lost at 60°C within ten minutes. At low temperature, the enzyme was highly stable at the range of pH 4.5 to 10.0. At 50°C, the most stable pH was around 6.0. None of metallic ions tested promoted the activity, but Hg2+ showed a remarkable inhibition. The Hg2+-treatment seemed to cause a large unfolding of the enzyme molecule. The enzyme was inhibited by potato inhibitor and a number of animal sera. Metal chelating reagents and sulfhydryl reagents tested had no effect on the activity, but DFP caused a marked inhibition. The sensitivity to DFP of the enzyme was about 1/300 of that of α-chymotrypsin. The enzyme was inhibited neither by TPCK nor by TLCK. As the result it was assumed that the structure of the active site of the enzyme is fairly different from that of trypsin, or of chymotrypsin. 相似文献

A sulfhydryl-oxidizing enzyme has been found in skin of young rats and a method for purifying the enzyme over 600-fold has been developed. Enzymatic activity was assayed either by its ability to oxidize dithiothreitol of by measuring its ability to renature reductively denatured ribonuclease A. Skin sulfhydryl oxidase catalyzed the oxidation of various thiols: dithiothreitol, dithioerythritol, D-penicillamine, and L-cysteine. Glutathione and 2-mercaptoethanol were very poor substrates for the enzyme. The enzyme also reactivated reductively denatured ribonuclease A, with neither the presence of a thiol nor prior reduction of the enzyme being necessary. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 66 000 +/- 2000, and the isoelectric point was determined to be at pH 4.65. Alkylating reagents alone had some inhibiting effect on skin sulfhydryl oxidase; when the enzyme was preincubated with thiols which were substrates, inhibition by alkylating reagents was greatly increased. After preincubation with dithiothreitol, treatment of the enzyme with alkylating reagents or N-ethylmaleimide caused significant inhibition; preincubation with a poor substrate, reduced glutathione, did not enhance inhibition by alkylating reagents or N-ethylmaleimide. 相似文献

Aspartase (L-aspartate ammonia-lyase, EC 4.3.1.1) of Escherichia coli W contains 38 half-cystine residues per tetrameric enzyme molecule. Two sulfhydryl groups were modified with N-ethylmaleimide or 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) per subunit, while 8.3 sulfhydryl groups were titrated with p-mercuribenzoic acid. In the presence of 4 M guanidine - HCl, 8.6 sulfhydryl groups reacted with DTNB per subunit. Aspartase was inactivated by various sulfhydryl reagents following pseudo-first-order kinetics. Upon modification of one sulfhydryl group per subunit with N-Ethylmaleimide, 85% of the original activity was lost; a complete inactivation was attained concomitant with the modification of two sulfhydryl groups. These results indicate that one or two sulfhydryl groups are essential for enzyme activity. L-Aspartate and DL-erythro-beta-hydroxyaspartate markedly protected the enzyme against N-ethylmaleimide-inactivation. Only the compounds having an amino group at the alpha-position exhibited protection, indicating that the amino group of the substrate contributes to the protection of sulfhydryl groups of the enzyme. Examination of enzymatic properties after N-ethylmaleimide modification revealed that 5-fold increase in the Km value for L-aspartate and a shift of the optimum pH for the activity towards acidic pH were brought about by the modification, while neither dissociation into subunits nor aggregation occurred. These results indicate that the influence of the sulfhydryl group modification is restricted to the active site or its vicinity of the enzyme. 相似文献

The apoenzyme of diol dehydrase was inactivated by four sulfhydryl-modifying reagents, p-chloromercuribenzoate, 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) (DTNB), iodoacetamide, and N-ethylmaleimide. In each case pseudo-first-order kinetics was observed. p-Chloromercuribenzoate modified two sulfhydryl groups per enzyme molecule and modification of the first one resulted in complete inactivation of the enzyme. DTNB also modified two sulfhydryl groups, but modification of the second one essentially corresponded to the inactivation. In both cases, the inactivation was reversed by incubation with dithiothreitol. Cyanocobalamin, a potent competitive inhibitor of adenosylcobalamin, protected the essential residue, but not the nonessential one, against the modification by these reagents. By resolving the sulfhydryl-modified cyanocobalamin-enzyme complex, the enzyme activity was recovered, irrespective of treatment with dithiothreitol. From these results, we can conclude that diol dehydrase has two reactive sulfhydryl groups, one of which is essential for catalytic activity and located at or in close proximity to the coenzyme binding site. The other is nonessential for activity. Neitherp-chloromercuribenzoate- nor DTNB-modified apoenzyme was able to bind cyanocobalamin, whereas the iodoacetamide- and N-ethylmaleimide-modified apoenzyme only partially lost the ability to bind cyanocobalamin. The inactivation of diol dehydrase by p-chloromercuribenzoate and DTNB did not bring about dissociation of the enzyme into subunits. Total number of the sulfhydryl groups of this enzyme was 14 when determined in the presence of 6 m guanidine hydrochloride. No disulfide bond was detected. 相似文献

Acid carboxypeptidase IV from Aspergillus oryzae was purified from the rivanol precipitable fraction by column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, DEAE-Sephadex A–50, hydroxylapatite and P-cellulose and gel filtration through Sephadex G–100. The optimum pH is at pH 3.0 for carbobenzoxy-l-glutamyl-l-tyrosine. The enzyme activity was inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents and diisopropylphosphorofluoridate, but was not inhibited by metal chelating agents. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 43,000 by gel filtration method. 相似文献

A tissue-type transglutaminase (TGase) was purified from liver tissue of the red sea bream, Pagrus major, by ion-exchange chromatography and heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Its activity was assessed using a fluorometric assay to measure the incorporation of monodansylcadaverine into N,N′-dimethyl casein. The molecular mass of purified TGase was estimated to be 78kDa by SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme required Ca2+ to express its activity, although 10 mM Sr2+ also activated the enzyme fully. TGase activity was maximal at pH 9.0–9.5, and the enzyme was strongly inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. The purified enzyme catalyzed the cross-linking of myosin heavy chain obtained from Alaska pollack, resulting in gelation of an actomyosin solution. The partial amino acid sequence of this fish TGase showed divisionally significant similarity to TGase from guinea pig liver. 相似文献

Hypocotyls of 5-d-old etiolated soybean seedlings (Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv. Altona) were treated with (a) dithiothreitol (DTT) or one of the sulfhydryl-binding reagents N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), p-hydroxymercuribenzoate (PMB) und p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonic acid (PMBS), (b) one of the sulfhydryl reagents in combination with DTT, (c) sulfhydryl reagent subsequent to treatment with DTT, and (d) PMBS followed by DTT. Glyceollin was extracted 24 and 48 h after initiation of treatment. The order of decreasing glyceollin-eliciting activity was PMBSDTT>PMBNEM. Elicitor effectiveness of sulfhydryl reagents and their reactivity with either L-cysteine or sulfhydryl groups in soybean hypocotyls were not strictly correlated. Mixtures of sulfhydryl reagent and DTT, pretreatment of hypocotyls with DTT and subsequent application of either PMB or PMBS, as well as application of PMBS prior to DTT induced less glyceollin than sulfhydryl reagents alone. In contrast, such pretreatment did not appreciably alter glyceollin accumulation elicited by NEM. The results indicate that glyceollin synthesis can be regulated by interaction with sulfhydryl groups located mainly at the outer surface of the plasmalemma.Abbreviations DTT
