An abnormal human hemoglobin was found in a hemolysate from a 5-year-old healthy child living in Prato (Tuscany, Italy). Strutctural studies demonstrated a previously unreported amino acid substitution, alpha 31 (B12) Arg leads to Ser (this is an alpha 1 beta 1 contact). The new variant has been named Hb Prato. It was unstable in isopropanol and heat-denaturation tests, but has normal functional properties, with respect to whole blood studies. Family studies indicated that the variant had been inherited from the mother, a 39-year-old woman of Sicilian extraction. Hb Prato occurs at 20 and 28% in hemolysates from the boy and woman, respectively. 相似文献

The discovery is reported of a fast-moving alpha chain variant (Hb Natal) which is characterized by a shortened alpha polypeptide chain because of the deletion of the Tyr-Arg carboxy-terminal residues. Through amplification of appropriate segments of DNA and hybridization with synthetic oligonucleotide probes, it was possible to detect a C----A mutation in codon 140 of the alpha 2 globin gene, which causes a change in the codon for tyrosine to a terminating codon. Hb Natal or alpha 2 (minus Tyr-Arg) beta 2 has a high affinity for oxygen without a Bohr effect and heme-heme interaction. These results provide direct evidence for the importance of the tyrosine residue at alpha 140 in the oxygenation-deoxygenation process. 相似文献

Kinetics of CO combination with and dissociation from isomer III, (alpha 1CO beta 1CO)alpha 2 beta 2 or alpha 1 beta 1 (alpha 2CO beta 2CO), and Hb Rothschild have been studied using the double mixing and microperoxidase methods. Isomer III was prepared in a manner so that it was the only reactive species in the reaction mixture. The biphasic reaction time course in both the "on" and "off" reactions of isomer III and the CO combination reaction of Hb Rothschild are attributed to slow relaxation between the fast and slow CO-reacting species in the two proteins: isomer III: l'f = 6 x 10(6) M-1 s-1, l'dimer = 1.7 x 10(6) M-1 s-1, l's = 2.2 x 10(5) M-1 s-1, lf = 0.15 s-1, ls = 0.01 s-1; Hb Rothschild: l'f = 2.8 x 10(6) M-1 s-1; l's = 2.7 x 10(5) M-1 s-1. 相似文献

A Dominican neonate carrying a new abnormal hemoglobin, hemoglobin Roseau Pointe-à-Pitre alpha 2 beta 2(90)(F6) Glu----Gly, was detected in Guadeloupe during application of a cord blood screening program. This variant behaved in isoelectrofocusing as an Hb D, and displayed instability and low whole blood oxygen affinity. In the affected family it was present, either isolated, or in association with a beta+ thalassemia trait. 相似文献

A new abnormal hemoglobin was detected in a young German anemic patient by cation-exchange high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Using a combination of electrospray mass spectrometry, HPLC, direct sequencing, and family screening with polymerase chain reaction/restriction digestion approach, we have characterized this hemoglobin variant as resulting from a Thr --> Ala replacement at beta84(EF8). It could be separated neither by electrophoresis nor by isoelectric focusing. Hb Saale is slightly unstable, exhibiting a moderate tendency to auto-oxidize. Functional properties and the heterotropic interactions are similar to those of Hb A. 相似文献

We have analyzed the hemoglobins of a young German patient with beta-thalassemia intermedia and of his immediate family and included in these studies an evaluation of possible nucleotide changes in the beta-globin genes through sequencing of amplified DNA. One chromosome of the propositus and one of his father's carried the GTG-->GGG mutation at codon 126 leading to the synthesis of Hb Dhonburi or alpha 2 beta (2)126(H4)Val-->Gly; this variant is slightly unstable and is associated with mild thalassemic features. His second chromosome and one of his mother's had the common IVS-I-5 (G-->C) mutation that leads to a rather severe beta(+)-thalassemia and the GTG-->ATG mutation at codon 18, resulting in the replacement of a valine residue by a methionine residue. This newly discovered beta-chain variant, named Hb Baden, was present for only 2-3% in both the patient and his mother. This low amount results from a decreased splicing of RNA at the donor splice-site of the first intron that is nearly completely deactivated by the IVS-I-5 (G-->C) thalassemic mutation. The chromosome with the codon 18 (GTG-->ATG) and the IVS-I-5 (G-->C) mutations has thus far been found only in this German family; analysis of 51 chromosomes from patients with the IVS-I-5 (G-->C) mutation living in different countries failed to detect the codon 18 (GTG-->ATG) change. 相似文献

A low P50 value in a fresh red blood cell suspension was discovered in a polycythemic patient (Hb 19 g X dl-1). Routine acid and alkaline electrophoreses of the hemolysate were identical to normal hemolysate. Isoelectrofocusing (pH gradient 6-8) did not reveal any abnormal band whether performed with the fully liganded or deoxygenated samples. Precise analyses of the oxygen dissociation curves of the propositus' red cells demonstrated a biphasic Hill plot, a normal Bohr effect and low interaction with 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG). Studies on the unfractionated hemolysate confirmed these observations and the inhibition of the effect of organic phosphates. Structural studies were carried out on the mixture of beta A + beta X chains and revealed the presence of two beta Tp14 peptides. Sequencing the abnormal beta Tp14 peptide showed the substitution Ala----Thr of the beta 140 (H18) residue. This new variant was named Hb Saint-Jacques. Examination of the three dimensional model of HbAo indicates that the substitution beta 140 (H18) Ala----Thr induces van der Waals interactions with the nearby lysine-82 (EF6) and leucine-81 (EF5) and a displacement of the EF corner of the beta chains. This is likely to change the normal position of the lysine-82 (EF6), a major anionic binding site in the central cavity between the two beta chains. Functional studies confirm the interpretation of a steric hindrance inhibiting the binding of large organic phosphates to Hb Saint-Jacques. 相似文献

The role of heterotetramer interaction sites in assembly and autoxidation of hemoglobin is not clear. The importance of beta(116His) (G-18) and gamma(116Ile) at one of the alpha1beta1 or alpha1gamma1 interaction sites for homo-dimer formation and assembly in vitro of beta and gamma chains, respectively, with alpha chains to form human Hb A and Hb F was assessed using recombinant beta(116His)(-->)(Asp), beta(116His)(-->)(Ile), and beta(112Cys)(-->)(Thr,116His)(-->)(Ile) chains. Even though beta chains (e.g., 116 His) are in monomer/tetramer equilibrium, beta(116Asp) chains showed only monomer formation. In contrast, beta(116Ile) and beta(112Thr,116Ile) chains showed homodimer and homotetramer formation like gamma-globin chains which contain 116 Ile. Assembly rates in vitro of beta(116Ile) or beta(112Thr,116Ile) chains with alpha chains were 340-fold slower, while beta(116Asp) chains promoted assembly compared to normal beta-globin chains. These results indicate that amino acid hydrophobicity at the G-18 position in non-alpha chains plays a key role in homotetramer, dimer, and monomer formation, which in turn plays a critical role in assembly with alpha chains to form Hb A and Hb F. These results also suggest that stable dimer formation of gamma-globin chains must not occur in vivo, since this would inhibit association with alpha chains to form Hb F. The role of beta(116His) (G-18) in heterotetramer-induced stabilization of the bond with oxygen in hemoglobin was also assessed by evaluating autoxidation rates using recombinant Hb tetramers containing these variant globin chains. Autoxidation rates of alpha(2)beta(2)(116Asp) and alpha(2)beta(2)(116Ile) tetramers showed biphasic kinetics with the faster rate due to alpha chain oxidation and the slower to the beta chain variants whose rates were 1.5-fold faster than that of normal beta-globin chains. In addition, NMR spectra of the heme area of these two hemoglobin variant tetramers showed similar resonance peaks, which are different from those of Hb A. Oxygen-binding properties of alpha(2)beta(2)(116His)(-->)(Asp) and alpha(2)beta(2)(116His)(-->)(Ile), however, showed slight alteration compared to Hb A. These results suggest that the beta116 amino acid (G18) plays a critical role in not only stabilizing alpha1beta1 interactions but also in inhibiting hemoglobin oxidation. However, stabilization of the bonds between oxygen and heme may not be dependent on stabilization of alpha1beta1 interactions. Tertiary structural changes may lead to changes in the heme region in beta chains after assembly with alpha chains, which could influence stability of dioxygen binding of beta chains. 相似文献

Beta-thalassemia is the most common disease among hemoglobinopathies in Antalya, Turkey, as well as world-wide. Mutations found in Turkish beta-thalassemia patients constitute a heterogeneous group, consisting mostly of point mutations. Only in very rare cases did deletions or insertions cause affected or carrier phenotypes. Hb Knossos [beta 27 (B9) Ala-Ser] is a rare variant with a normal HbA2 level. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of compound heterozygosity for Hb Knossos [Cod 27 (G-T)] and IVSII-745 (C-G). To our knowledge, this is the first report of such a combination related with beta-thalassemia major phenotype in a Turkish family, where reverse dot blot hybridization (RDBH) and DNA sequencing analysis were used. Heterozygous inheritance of the mutation results in mild beta-thalassemia phenotype, whereas homozygous inheritance leads to intermediate beta-thalassemia. As a result, the compound heterozygosity of Hb Knossos with IVSII-745 appears as the cause of the beta-thalassemia major phenotype in our case. The combination of these mutations [Hb Knossos, Cod 27 (G-T), and IVSII-745, C-G] causes the beta-thalassemia major phenotype, and this is important for genetic counseling. 相似文献

Hb Altdorf alpha 2 beta 2 135 Ala leads to Pro is an unstable variant occurring near Lecce in Italy. The abnormal hemoglobin does not separate from Hb A in the electrophoresis. In vitro a marked Heinz body formation is produced with phenylhydrazin. In heterozygous individuals an almost compensated hemolysis and a slight splenomegaly are found. Hemolysis can be aggravated by exogenous factors. A rather severe hemolysis was induced by a viral infection in a 3 years old girl. 相似文献

Hematological evaluation and data from chain synthesis analyses in six members of the family with two members having Hb Grady (i.e., and alpha chain variant with elongated chains due to an insertion of three amino acid residues [1]) indicate the presence of multiple nonallelic Hb alpha structural loci in the single Hb Grady heterozygote. The data support the earlier stated hypothesis that the Hb alpha Grady locus resulted from a crossing over between chromosomes of two tandemly repeated Hb alpha loci. The presence of an alpha thalassemia condition in one of the two Hb Grady heterozygotes increases the relative production of the alpha Grady chain by a factor of two. 相似文献

The kinetics of CO association to and dissociation from the two isomers of monoliganded species alpha ICO beta I(alpha II beta II) and alpha I beta I (alpha II beta COII) has been studied by double-mixing stopped-flow and microperoxidase methods. The monoliganded species were generated by hybridization between excess ferric Hb and alpha CO2 beta +2 or alpha +2 beta CO2 prepared by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results indicated that: 1) there were no significant differences in the reactivities of alpha and beta chains in the first step of ligation; 2) in the second step of ligation there was significant cooperativity in the reaction of deoxyhemoglobin with 0.05 or 0.1 equivalent of CO. Diliganded species were therefore formed in significant amounts. The double-mixing HPLC results suggested that in the second step of ligation alpha chains reacted faster than the beta chains, and the main diliganded species formed was alpha I beta ICO (alpha IICO beta II) or its isomer alpha ICO I(alpha II beta IICO). These results seem to indicate that the reaction of the first CO is mostly random and in the second step of ligation CO binds more to the tetramers in which one beta chain is already ligated: alpha I beta I (alpha II beta II) + CO----alpha ICO beta I (alpha II beta II) and alpha I beta ICO (alpha II beta II) + CO----alpha I beta ICO (alpha IICO beta II). 相似文献

Asymmetrical cross-linked FS (alpha 2 gamma beta s) hybrid hemoglobin (Hb FS-fumarate) was prepared by reacting mixtures of hemoglobins F and S with double-headed aspirin, bis(3,5-dibromosalicyl) fumarate. When the molar ratio of hemoglobin to the cross-linking agent was 1 to 2 in a 1:1 FS mixture, the relative ratio of the products, cross-linked hemoglobins F (Hb F-fumarate), FS (HB FS-fumarate), and S (Hb S-fumarate), was 1.0:2.6:2.0, in contrast to a 1:2:1 ratio of cross-linked hemoglobins A, AS, and S in a 1:1 AS mixture. These results suggest that the fumaryl group reacts differently with Hb F, Hb FS and Hb S, and that the difference could be attributed to the difference in the structure in the vicinity of the EF6 Lys of non alpha-chains. The oxygen-binding properties of Hb F-fumarate, Hb FS-fumarate, and Hb S-fumarate were similar, except that the n-value of Hb F-fumarate was slightly lower than n-values of Hb S-fumarate and Hb FS-fumarate. Kinetic studies on aggregation showed that the addition of Hb FS-fumarate to unmodified Hb S did not affect the delay time prior to aggregation, but did increase the total turbidity. Electrophoretic and densitometric scanning analysis of the aggregate phase of this mixture showed the fraction of Hb FS-fumarate to be 19%. Hb F-fumarate's effect on the delay time is concentration-dependent; the greater the concentration of Hb F-fumarate, the longer the delay time. The turbidity after aggregation of the mixture of Hb S and Hb F-fumarate was much less than that of Hb S and Hb FS-fumarate. However, the fraction of Hb F-fumarate in the aggregate phase was 19%, which is similar to that of Hb FS-fumarate. These data suggest that Hb F and FS hybrid hemoglobin cannot participate in nuclei formation, but can participate in aggregation after sufficient amounts of nuclei are formed from Hb S, and that increased levels of Hb F do not have an inhibitory effect on the formation of nuclei but on the growth of aggregates. 相似文献

Oxygen binding by hemoglobin fixed in the T state either by crystallization or by encapsulation in silica gels is apparently noncooperative. However, cooperativity might be masked by different oxygen affinities of alpha and beta subunits. Metal hybrid hemoglobins, where the noniron metal does not bind oxygen, provide the opportunity to determine the oxygen affinities of alpha and beta hemes separately. Previous studies have characterized the oxygen binding by alpha(Ni2+)2beta(Fe2+)2 crystals. Here, we have determined the three-dimensional (3D) structure and oxygen binding of alpha(Fe2+)2beta(Ni2+)2 crystals grown from polyethylene glycol solutions. Polarized absorption spectra were recorded at different oxygen pressures with light polarized parallel either to the b or c crystal axis by single crystal microspectrophotometry. The oxygen pressures at 50% saturation (p50s) are 95 +/- 3 and 87 +/- 4 Torr along the b and c crystal axes, respectively, and the corresponding Hill coefficients are 0.96 +/- 0.06 and 0.90 +/- 0.03. Analysis of the binding curves, taking into account the different projections of the alpha hemes along the optical directions, indicates that the oxygen affinity of alpha1 hemes is 1.3-fold lower than alpha2 hemes. Inspection of the 3D structure suggests that this inequivalence may arise from packing interactions of the Hb tetramer within the monoclinic crystal lattice. A similar inequivalence was found for the beta subunits of alpha(Ni2+)2beta(Fe2+)2 crystals. The average oxygen affinity of the alpha subunits (p50 = 91 Torr) is about 1.2-fold higher than the beta subunits (p50 = 110 Torr). In the absence of cooperativity, this heterogeneity yields an oxygen binding curve of Hb A with a Hill coefficient of 0.999. Since the binding curves of Hb A crystals exhibit a Hill coefficient very close to unity, these findings indicate that oxygen binding by T-state hemoglobin is noncooperative, in keeping with the Monod, Wyman, and Changeux model. 相似文献

A new delta-chain variant, delta143 (H21) His-->Tyr or Hb Noah Mehmet Oeztuerk, was discovered during the investigation of the cause of hemolytic anaemia in a 6-month-old infant of Turkish descent. It was detected by Cation exchange high-performance liquid chromatography (CE-HPLC) using PolyCAT A column. P(50) was 20.6+/-0.60 mmHg and 29.3+/-0.40 mmHg for the carrier and the wild-type, respectively. This suggests an increase in oxygen affinity. On routine CE-HPLC Hb A(2) was low (1.2%) and the variant was not detected. An extended family study revealed that the variant was not associated with the anaemia or with any other clinical abnormality. 相似文献

Hemoglobin New Mexico: beta 100 (G2) Pro----Arg. A variant hemoglobin associated with erythrocytosis
W F Moo-Penn J E McGuffey D L Jue M H Johnson T Schum 《Biochimica et biophysica acta》1985,832(2):192-196
Hemoglobin New Mexico beta 100 Pro----Arg was found in a 4-year-old black male and represents a new mutation. The propositus is also heterozygous for Hb S. The variant shows high oxygen affinity, reduced cooperatively, and a lowered alkaline Bohr effect. Addition of allosteric effectors leads to improved cooperativity and a Bohr effect that is similar to that of Hb A. The high percentage of the variant (53.5%) and its increased oxygen affinity result in erythrocytosis in this patient. The hemoglobin level and packed cell volume values are elevated. In spite of these factors the patient appears healthy and shows no discomfort. The altered oxygen-linked properties of this variant can be related to the fact that the substituted residue contributes to the alpha 2 beta 1/alpha 1 beta 2 subunit interface, an area that is critical not only to the allosteric transitions between the oxy and deoxy states but also to stabilizing the hemoglobin tetrameer. 相似文献

This study examines the functional and structural effects of amino acid substitution at alpha(1)beta(2) interface of Hb Santa Clara (beta 97His-->Asn). We have characterized the variation by a combination of electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry and DNA sequence analysis followed by oxygen-binding experiments. Functional studies outlined an increased oxygen affinity, reduced effect of organic phosphates and a reduced Bohr effect with respect to HbA. In view of the primary role of this interface in the cooperative quaternary transition from the T to R conformational state, a theoretical three-dimensional model of Hb Santa Clara was generated. Structural investigations suggest that replacement of Asn for His beta 97 results in a significant stabilization of the high affinity R-state of the haemoglobin molecule with respect to the low affinity T-state. The role of beta FG4 position has been further examined by computational models of known beta FG4 variants, namely Hb Malm? (beta 97His-->Gln), Hb Wood (beta 97His-->Leu), Hb Nagoya (beta 97His-->Pro) and Hb Moriguchi (beta 97His-->Tyr). These findings demonstrate that, among the various residues at the alpha(1)beta(2) (and alpha(2)beta(1)) intersubunit interface, His beta FG4 contributes significantly to the quaternary constraints that are responsible for the low oxygen affinity of human deoxyhaemoglobin. 相似文献

Laminins, a family of large heterotrimeric (alphabetagamma) proteins, are major components of basement membranes implicated in a variety of cellular functions. Different commercial laminin preparations isolated from human placenta have been widely used in functional studies but their molecular properties are poorly known. In the present study, we characterized several of these preparations by ELISA, silver staining and Western blotting, in comparison to mouse laminin 1 (alpha1beta1gamma1), and recombinant human laminins 2 (alpha2beta1gamma1), 8 (alpha4beta1gamma1) and 10 (alpha5beta1gamma1). The cell migration-promoting activity of different batches was also tested. The placenta laminin preparations differed from one another and consisted of highly fragmented proteins, a mixture of laminin isoforms, and/or contaminating fibronectin. Major functional differences between batches were also observed, reflecting molecular heterogeneity. Previous data obtained in functional studies using these preparations need to be interpreted with caution and may require revision, and future functional studies demand prior molecular characterization of the laminins, particularly their alpha-chain. 相似文献

The valency hybrids of Hb A, alpha 2CO beta 2+, and alpha 2+ beta 2CO have been prepared by a new high pressure liquid chromatography method, and the kinetics of their CO-combination and dissociation reactions have been studied by double mixing and microperoxidase methods. Both reactions are biphasic. The slow phase in CO-combination and the fast phase in CO-dissociation are due to the reactions of alpha CO2 beta T2 or alpha 2 beta 2CO,T. The fast phase in CO-combination reaction has two components, one due to the dimers of the hybrid and the other due to the R-state tetramer. Immediately after the reduction of the valency hybrids, the overall system is represented by the equation: 2 alpha CO beta in equilibrium alpha 2CO beta 2R in equilibrium alpha 2CO beta 2T or (formula: see text) If the solutions are aged for 3-11 s, the R-state population is reduced gradually to a very small size, and the main species after 11 s of aging are dimers and T-state tetramers. Analysis of the kinetic data indicates slow R in equilibrium T equilibria in the absence of phosphates and significant dissociation of the T-state tetramer. It is concluded that the subunit contacts alpha 1-beta 2 (or alpha 2-beta 1) are impaired seriously in the hybrids. Very slow R in equilibrium T relaxation makes these hybrids unlikely intermediates in the sequential binding of CO to Hb tetramer. 相似文献
