Synthetic glycoproteins can be prepared by reductive amination of protein and reducing disaccharide in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. The reaction proceeds readily in aqueous solutions over a broad pH range to give high degrees of substitution. The degree of substitution can be determined by amino acid analysis, as the secondary amine linkage formed by reductive amination in stable to acid-catalyzed protein hydrolysis conditions. In order to demonstrate that coupling occurs to lysine residues, synthetic α-N-1-(1-deoxyglucitol)-lysine and ?-N-1-(1-deoxyglucitol)-lysine were prepared and compared with bovine serum albumin conjugates of maltose, cellobiose, lactose, and melibiose by amino acid analysis after acid hydrolysis. These studies demonstrate that the expected secondary amine linkages are formed with the ?-amino groups of lysine. 相似文献

A method is described for isolating lectins in pure form and quantitative yield in a single step by affinity chromatography on aminoethyl polyacrylamide gels containing reductively aminated disaccharide residues. The affinity columns were prepared in two steps: (a) direct reductive amination of the disaccharide and aminoethyl gel with sodium cyanoborohydride in aqueous solution at pH 9; (b) N-acetylation of excess amino groups. Affinity columns prepared by reductive amination of lactose, melibiose, maltose, and di-N-acetylchitobiose were used to purify the following lectins: lactose, peanut, castor bean; melibiose, Bandeiraea simplicifolia; maltose, jack bean, common lentil; di-N-acetylchitobiose, wheat germ. These columns are extremely stable, have good flow rates, and high binding capacities. 相似文献

Neoglycoproteins prepared by direct reductive amination of cellobiose, cellotetraose and cellopentaose to polylysine, were found to be effective antigens in rabbits, and the antisera were found by quantitative inhibition techniques to be predominantly hapten specific. Several analogs incorporating various structural features of the carbohydrate hapten were synthesized and examined as inhibitors of the precipition reaction between the neoglycoproteins and homologous antisera in order to identify those structural features of the hapten important in antibody recognition. Antibodies to the reductively aminated cellobiose-polylysine conjugate were found to recognize the terminal -glucopyranosyl residue, theacyclic reduced glucose residue, and the secondary ammonium linkage and methylene arm of the lysyl residue of the hapten. Antibodies to the cellotetraose-polylysine conjugate, in contrast, displayed no recognition for the secondary ammonium linkage region; they were found to recognize the non-reducing terminal -glucopyranosyl residue, the two internal 1,4-linked glucopyranosyl residues, and the reducing end glucose residue in anacyclic orcyclic form. Inhibition studies with antisera to the cellopentaose-polylysine conjugate again established that there was no recognition of the secondary ammonium linkage region, and demonstrated that the upper limit to the size, of the antibody combining site was four 1,4-linked glucopyranosyl residues.Abbreviations BSA

Hexasaminidase P, the main isozyme of hexosaminidase in pregnancy serum, was isolated and purified 600--700-fold by a two-step purification procedure--affinity chromatography on Sepharose-bound epsilon-aminocaproyl-N-acetylglucosylamine, followed by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The purified enzyme was subjected to biochemical and immunochemical analysis. Its catalytic property, namely, kinetic behavior, is similar to that of the major isozymes of hexosaminidase, A and B. However, it differs from these isozymes in its electrophoretic mobility and in its apparent molecular weight which is around 150 000 compared with 100 000 of the A and B isozymes. Immunochemical analysis indicates that the P isozymes is antigenically cross-reactive with both A and B isozymes, but it does not contain the A-specific antigenic determinants, and exhibits identical antigenic specificity to hexasaminidase B. Two possible structures are suggested that are compatible with the experimental data: (a) a hexosaminidase B like structure with higher extent of glycosylation; (b) a hexameter of beta chain, possibly arranged as three beta2 subunits. 相似文献

A method for the purification of phosphate-activated glutaminase from the liver of streptozotocin-diabetic rats is described. The procedure involves solubilization of glutaminase activity from isolated mitochondria by sonication, followed by ammonium sulfate precipitation, polyethylene glycol precipitation, and sequential chromatography on DEAE, hydroxylapatite, and zinc-chelated resins. The enzyme was purified 600-fold to a specific activity of 31-57 U/mg protein. The purified enzyme has an apparent subunit molecular mass of 58,000-Da and is greater than 80% pure by scanning densitometry of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The purified enzyme has an apparent Km for glutamine of 17 mM and a pH optimum between 7.8 and 8.2. The physical and kinetic properties of this enzyme are similar to those of the enzyme from normal rat liver. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the enzyme specifically inhibit hepatic glutaminase activity and react primarily with a 58,000-Da peptide in liver fractions on immunoblots. These antibodies were used in equivalence point titrations and immunoblots to provide evidence for increased concentration of glutaminase protein in the liver of diabetic rats with no change in specific activity of the enzyme. In addition, the antibodies cross-react, at low affinity, with kidney-type glutaminases. On immunoblots, the antibodies did not react with fetal liver, mammary gland, or lung. Antibodies to rat hepatic glutaminase should prove useful as tools to study the long-term regulation of the enzyme. 相似文献

Malate synthase (EC 4.1.3.2), an enzyme unique to the glyoxylate cycle, was purified to homogeneity from cotyledons of 72-hours, darkgrown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seedlings. Homogeneity of the enzyme was assessed by silver staining SDS-PAGE gels. Purification was accomplished by using a single buffer medium through six steps involving one ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatography on three columns (Sephacryl S-300, DEAE Sephacel, Phenyl Sepharose). Large-scale preparation of glyoxysomes, a main step in all other published procedures, was not involved. The purified enzyme and that extracted from glyoxysomes appears to be a dodecamer with a native molecular weight of 750,000 (sedimentation coefficient of >20 Svedberg units [S] on sucrose gradients) composed of identical subunits (molecular weight approximately 63,000). The monomer (5S) occurs in the cytosol. Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbits were judged to be monospecific for malate synthase by immunotitration, double immunodiffusion, and western blotting. Double immunodiffusion experiments revealed only partial immunological identity between the 5S (cytosolic) and 20S (glyoxysomal forms, although complete identity was observed between the 5S form in immature and germinated seeds, and the 20S form in immature and germinated seeds. Cross-reactivity of the cotton antimalate synthase serum was observed with extracts from five other oilseeds. Western blot analyses showed that malate synthase protein was not present in immature seeds prior to appearance of enzyme activity, but when present, subunit molecular weight was indistinguishable in immature, desiccated, and germinated seeds. 相似文献

Ascitic fluids from patients with various types of cancer were screened for the CA 19-9 and CA 125 tumor-associated antigenic activities. Two fluids exhibiting the highest activities were tested for their binding to various lectin-Sepharose columns resulting in both being bound best to wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) Sepharose. The WGA column eluate of one fluid was further chromatographed by HPLC and three peaks were obtained with approximate molecular weights of 3.65 MDa, 664 kDa and 330 kDa, of which only the largest fraction contained the CA 19-9 activity. The fluids were also fractionated on a Sephacryl S-400 column with most of the activity being present in or near the void volume.Monoclonal antibodies were used to demonstrate that the purified glycoproteins also contained the blood group A determinant, the four Lewis determinants Lea, Leb, Lex and Ley, and the sialylated-Lex determinant, while other antibody analyses failed to detect other blood group and/or carbohydrate sequence determinants. Some of the blood group expressions could be separated from the CA 19-9 and CA 125 active glycoproteins by adsorption with various lectins other than the WGA.Abbreviations used NeuAc

Human liver alpha-L-fucosidase has been purified 6300-fold to apparent homogeneity with 66% yield by a two-step affinity chromatographic procedure utilizing agarose epsilon-aminocaproyl-fucosamine. Isoelectric focusing revealed that all six isoelectric forms of the enzyme were purified. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified alpha-L-fucosidase demonstrated the presence of six bands of protein which all contained fucosidase activity. The purified enzyme preparation was found to contain only trace amounts of seven glycosidases. Quantitative amino acid analysis was performed on the purified fucosidase. Preliminary carbohydrate analysis indicated that only about 1% of the molecule is carbohydrate. Gel filtration on Sepharose 4B indicated an approximate molecular weight for alpha-L-fucosidase of 175,000 +/- 18,000. High speed sedimentation equilibrium yielded a molecular weight of 230,000 +/- 10,000. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels indicated the presence of a single subunit of molecular weight, 50,100 +/- 2,500. The enzyme had a pH optimum of 4.6 with a suggested second optimum of 6.5. Apparent Michaelis constants and maximal velocities were determined on the purified enzyme with respect to the 4-methylumbelliferyl and the p-nitrophenyl substrates and were found to be 0.22 mM and 14.1 mumol/mg of protein/min and 0.43 mM and 19.6 mumol/mg of protein/min, respectively. Several salts had little or no effect on fucosidase activity although Ag+ and Hg2+ completely inactivated the enzyme. Antibodies made against the purified fucosidase were dound to be monospecific against crude human liver supernatant fluids and the pure antigen. No cross-reacting material was detected in the crude liver supernatant fluid from a patient who died with fucosidosis. 相似文献

In the studies presented the effective procedure of isolation and purification of enterobacterial common antigen from Shigella sonnei has been elaborated. The method is based on sonification of bacterial suspension in the presence of lysozyme and EDTA and subsequent extraction of the pellet with boiling water. The crude extract of common antigen was purified by fractionation with ethanol and chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20. The comparison of several extraction procedures of enterobacterial common antigen from Shigella sonnei proved that the method described above is most effective. The purified enterobacterial common antigen preparation obtained preserved full biological activity: antigenicity (precipitation and activity in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), immunogenicity in rabbits, ability to coat erythrocytes (passive hemagglutination) and inhibitory activity in passive hemagglutination. The pure enterobacterial common antigen was identified to 90% as a polymer of N-acetyl-D-mannosaminuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (2:1, molar ratio), O-acetylated and containing 3.2% fatty acids (C16:0 and C18:1, not oleic). It contains 5.3% nitrogen, less than 4% protein, less than 0.5% phosphorus and less than 1.6% neutral sugar; glycerol and RNA were not found in the preparation. 相似文献

Antibodies to DR antigens were detected using serological and immunochemical tests in sera from rabbits and goats immunized with cultured human B-lymphoid cells mixed with an anti-T-cell xenoantiserum or with partially purified DR antigens. After absorption with human red blood cells, cultured melanoma cells, and/or T-lymphoid cells, DR xenoantisera become specifically cytotoxic to B lymphocytes. Three out of nine sera tested with a panel of T-depleted peripheral lymphocytes and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells showed correlation with DR alloantisera submitted to the Seventh International Histocompatibility Workshop. Although the correlation coefficients were lower than those obtained with DR alloantisera, the results obtained suggest that DR xenoantisera may recognize allotypic specificities. 相似文献

There is evidence to suggest that extracellular matrix molecules, such as proteoglycans, are involved in the regulation of mineral deposition in calcifying tissues. One mineralizing system which is characterized by extremely rapid mineralization is the hen eggshell. This eggshell consists of a pair of nonmineralized eggshell membranes subjacent to the calcified eggshell proper; the eggshell proper is organized into palisades (columns) of mineralized matrix separated by pores. Between the membranes and the shell proper are compacted foci of tissue called mammillary knobs, which are thought to be sites where mineralization is initiated. Previous work from this laboratory has shown the presence of types I, V, and X collagen in the shell membranes. To address the question of the possible role of proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans in mineralization of the eggshell, two approaches were used. First, immunohistochemistry was performed with monoclonal antibodies to various proteoglycan and glycosaminoglycan epitopes. This analysis indicates that different glycosaminoglycans are localized to discrete regions within the eggshell. Dermatan sulfate is present within the matrix of the shell proper and, to a lesser extent, the mammillary knobs and the outer portion of the shell membranes. In contrast, keratan sulfate is found in the shell membranes and prominently in the mammillary knobs. Interestingly, different keratan sulfate antibodies immunostain distinct regions of the eggshell, which suggests that various types of keratan sulfate are distributed differently. The second approach utilized was to extract the eggshell membranes and recover anionic molecules by anion-exchange chromatography. This resulted in the extraction of material which was recognized by antibodies to keratan sulfate, but not to chondroitin sulfate. This material was very large, as evidenced by its elution in the void volume of a Sepharose CL-2B column. The large size may be due to the extensive cross-links known to occur in the eggshell. If eggshell membranes are extracted at elevated temperature, the material recovered is of much smaller size. These results indicate that molecules recognized by antibodies to glycosaminoglycans are present in the eggshell, and their localized distribution relative to the calcified matrix suggests that they may be involved in the regulation of mineral deposition. 相似文献

A simple three-step method was established for the purification of NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone) ('DT-diaphorase', EC 1.6.99.2) from rat liver by affinity chromatography with a recovery of above 50%. The final enzyme preparation was purified about 750-fold and was electrophoretically homogeneous. Gel filtration showed that the enzyme had a mol.wt. of about 55 000, and one molecule of FAD was found per 55 000 mol.wt. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis gave a mol.wt. of about 27 000. Two N-terminal amino acids, asparagine/aspartic acid and glutamine/glutamic acid, were found in about equal yield, suggesting the presence of two non-identical polypeptide chains in the enzyme. NAD(P)H dehydrogenase was selectively removed by this affinity-chromatographic method from a microsomal carboxylation system. The system, which was solubilized by detergent and is dependent on vitamin K (2-methyl-3-phytyl-1,4-naphthaquinone or analogues with other side chains), lost its activity on the removal of the enzyme. The activity can be completely restored to the system by adding purified cytoplasmic NAD(P)H dehydrogenase or by using the quinol form of vitamin K1 (2-methyl-3-phytyl-1,4-naphthaquinol). 相似文献

Methylglyoxal (MG), an endogenous metabolite that increases in diabetes and is a common intermediate in the Maillard reaction (glycation), reacts with proteins and forms advanced glycation end products. In the present study, we identify a novel MG-arginine adduct and also characterize the structure of a major fluorescent adduct. In addition, we describe the immunochemical study on the MG-arginine adducts using monoclonal antibody directed to MG-modified protein. Upon incubation of Nalpha-acetyl-L-arginine with MG at 37 degrees C, two nonfluorescent products and one fluorescent product were detected as the major products. The nonfluorescent products were identified as the Ndelta-(5-hydro-5-methyl-4-imidazolon-2-yl)-L-ornithine derivatives (5-hydro-5-methylimidazolone) and a novel MG-arginine adduct having a tetrahydropyrimidine moiety (Ndelta-(4-carboxy-4,6-dimethyl-5, 6-dihydroxy-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-2-yl)-L-ornithine).On the basis of the following chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the major fluorescent product, putatively identified as Ndelta-(5-methylimidazolon-2-yl)-L-ornithine (5-methylimidazolone), was found to be identical to Ndelta-(5-hydroxy-4, 6-dimethylpyrimidine-2-yl)-L-ornithine (argpyrimidine): (i) the low and high resolution fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry gave a molecular ion peak at m/z of 297 (M+H) and a molecular formula of C10H25O6N4, respectively, which coincided with argpyrimidine; (ii) the 1H NMR spectrum of this product in d6-Me2SO showed a singlet at 2.10 ppm corresponding to six protons; (iii) the peak corresponding to the 5-methylimidazolone derivative was not detected by the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry with the mode of selected ion monitoring; (iv) incubation of 5-hydro-5-methylimidazolone, a putative precursor of 5-methylimidazolone, at 37 degrees C for 14 days scarcely generated 5-methylimidazolone. On the other hand, as an immunochemical approach to the detection of these MG adducts, we raised the monoclonal antibodies (mAb3C and mAb6B) directed to the MG-modified protein and found that they specifically recognized the major fluorescent product, argpyrimidine, as the dominant epitope. The immunohistochemical analysis of the kidneys from diabetic patients revealed the localization of argpyrimidine in intima and media of small artery walls. Furthermore, the accumulation of argpyrimidine was also observed in some arterial walls of the rat brain after middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by reperfusion. These results suggest that argpyrimidine may contribute to the progression of not only long term diabetic complications, such as nephropathy and atherosclerosis, but also the tissue injury caused by ischemia/reperfusion. 相似文献

This paper describes the initial immunochemical characterization of specific macrophage-arming factor (SMAF). SMAF is an antigen-specific factor that is released by (sensitized) T lymphocytes after contact with the specific antigen. It renders macrophages specifically cytotoxic. The specificity is dependent on the tumor-mouse combination. In allogeneic systems the specificity is H-2-directed, whereas in the syngeneic systems the specificity is tumor-specific. SMAF has a molecular mass of 65-85 kDa (established by gel filtration). By affinity chromatography SMAF could not be adsorbed with anti-(kappa + lambda light chain) immunoglobulins or anti-IgG from SMAF-containing supernatants. SMAF could be adsorbed with the monoclonal antibody 14-30 (directed against specific T-cell factors), and could be eluted from columns containing the latter. Furthermore, SMAF could also be adsorbed with and eluted from affinity chromatography columns to which specific tumor cell membranes or KCl extracts of these tumor cell membranes were coupled. Other tumor cell membranes could not adsorb SMAF. Together these data show that SMAF is not an antibody but a T-cell factor with an antigen-specific recognition site. 相似文献
