Separation and characterization of two distinct hemagglutinins contained in purified leukocytosis-promoting factor from Bordetella pertussis. 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
1. The leukocytosis-promoting factor of Bordetella pertussis was found to contain two hemagglutinins with different susceptibilities to papain and separable from each other by agarose gel filtration with Tris - HCl buffer containing 1 M NaCl. 2. One hemagglutinin, referred to as hemagglutinin HA, had a high hemagglutinating activity, but neither leukocytosis-promoting nor histamine-sensitizing activity. The other hemagglutinin, referred to as hemagglutinin LPF appeared to be identical with the leukocytosis-promoting factor and possessed a low hemagglutinating and high leukocytosis-promoting and histamine-sensitizing activities. 3. The hemagglutinating activity of hemagglutinin HA was highly sensitive to papain. The hemagglutinating, leukocytosis-promoting, and histamine-sensitizing activities of hemagglutinin LPF were fairly resistant to the enzyme. 4. The two hemagglutinins were distinct from each other in immunological and chemical properties. 5. Morphologically, hemagglutinin HA showed itself to be filamentous molecules of approx. 2 X 40 nm, while hemagglutinin LPF comprised of spherical molecules of approx. 6 nm diameter. 6. The molecular weight values of hemagglutinin HA estimated by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and sucrose density gradient centrifugation were approx. 126 000 and 133 000, respectively. Those of hemagglutinin LPF estimated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoreis at pH 4.5, sucrose density gradient centrifugation and gel filtration on a 10% agarose column were 107 000, 103 000 and 30 000, respectively. A possible reason for obtaining such a low molecular weight value by gel filtration is discussed. 相似文献

Summary Two distinct lipases produced byCanadida rugosa were identified and separated by a high resolution anion-exchange column (Mono Q) after an ethanol extraction of the crude lipase. From this Mono Q column, lipase I eluted at 0.05 M NaCl whereas lipase II eluted at 0.15 M NaCl. The less anionic nature of lipase I was also confirmed by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as well as isoelectrophoresis. Both proteins have an apparent molecular weight of 58,000 by SDS-PAGE. The isoelectric points of lipase I and II are 5.6 and 5.8 respectively. 相似文献

Analysis of the effectiveness of sodium chloride in dissociating non-histone chromatin proteins of cultured hepatoma cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We examined the ability of NaCl (at 0.15 to 3 M) to release non-histone proteins from chromatin of cultured rat hepatoma cells. The percentage of the non-histones released increased with increasing NaCl concentrations up to 0.75 M; 1 and 3 M NaCl were not significantly more effective. A maximum of 50% of the non-histone protein was recovered free of DNA. The release of non-histones from sheared and unsheared chromatin was similar. The electrophoretic patterns of the non-histone proteins released by NaCl resembled that of the non-histones released by sodium dodecyl sulfate, which indicates that many of the detectable components were at least partially released by NaCl. Some non-histones (especially low molecular weight polypeptides) were fully released by NaCl and other proteins were relatively resistant to NaCl release. Higher recoveries of NaCl-dissociated non-histones were obtained with sucrose gradient centrifugation than with centrifugation in the absence of sucrose. 相似文献

The proteodermatan sulfate (PDS) of bovine skin is a low molecular weight proteoglycan with a molecular structure consisting of a protein chain and a sulfated polysaccharide chain covalently linked at the 4-serine of the protein. Static and dynamic laser light scattering methods have been used to determine the weight-average molecular weight, Mw, zeta-average radius of gyration, Rg zeta, and zeta-average translational diffusion coefficient, Dto, zeta, of bovine skin PDS. We have also characterized the two components of PDS, i.e., the protein core and the dermatan sulfate (DS) chain. (The latter contained an N-terminal-linked penta- or tetrapeptide.) Interpretation of the PDS data is complicated by the block copolymer nature of its structure. When appropriate corrections are made, our results indicate that Mw for PDS monomer is 62,000 when dissolved in 4M guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl), and increases to 610,000 in 0.15M NaCl. Mw for the core protein in 4M GdnHCl is 39,000, and this also increases substantially to 650,000 in 0.15M NaCl. In contrast, Mw for the DS chain is 24,000 in 0.15M NaCl, indicating that there is minimal self-association of DS in 0.15M NaCl. Thus we conclude that the self-association of PDS involves the protein core. Comparison of Rg zeta and Rh, the average hydrodynamic radius, suggests that trace amounts of aggregation persist for the PDS and its core protein even in 4M GdnHCl. This conclusion is supported by evaluation of the second moments of the dynamic light scattering correlation function. Comparisons of the observed Dto, zeta for PDS with predicted values using hydrodynamic theory are consistent with a "lollipop" conformation for the molecule. 相似文献

Human tracheobronchial mucin isolated from cystic fibrosis patients (CF HTBM) was purified using a combination of gel filtration and density gradient centrifugation. The resulting mucin was fractionated to reduce polydispersity and to facilitate studies of the molecular weight dependence of mucin viscoelasticity in concentrated solution. The viscoelastic properties of CF HTBM were examined in distilled water, 0.1M salt solutions and chaotropic solvents. In controlled strain experiments (strain ≥ 5%) with increasing mucin concentration, a crossover from sol to gel behavior is observed. The gel strength, as measured by the magnitude of the storage modulus at comparable mucin concentrations, is greatest for distilled water, intermediate for 0.1M NaCl, and lowest far 6M GdnHCl. In distilled water, high molecular weight mucin undergoes a sol-gel transition at ~ 12 mg/mL, and shows evidence of a plateau modulus at higher concentrations. The storage and loss moduli of concentrated high molecular weight fractions in 6M GdnHCl exhibit a power law dependence on frequency typical of weak gels near the sol–gel transition at 20 mg/mL. Similar rheology is observed in 0.1M NaCl and 0.091M NaCl/3 mM CaCl2, but with evidence for additional weak associations at low frequency. The power law exponent in these systems is 0.70 ± 0.02, in good agreement with prediction for networks formed by a percolation mechanism. Low molecular weight fractions in these solvents exhibit a fluid-like viscoelastic response. However, low molecular weight mucin in distilled water shows a strain-dependent increase in elasticity at low frequency indicative of weak intermolecular associations. Comparison of the rheological behavior of CF HTBM with our earlier studies of ovine submaxillary mucin lends support to the idea that carbohydrate side-chain interactions are important in the gelation mechanism of mucins. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

A polypeptide growth factor, Harderian gland-derived growth factor (HGDGF), has been purified approximately 43,000-fold from guinea pig Harderian gland by column chromatography on TSK gel DEAE-5PW, blue-Sepharose CL-6B, and Superose 12. The yield was approximately 10%. The Superose 12 fraction was further purified by Aquapore BU-300 reversed-phase chromatography to apparent homogeneity. HGDGF was eluted from TSK gel DEAE-5PW at 0.20-0.35 M NaCl, with a linear gradient of 0.15-0.80 M NaCl and at 2.20 M NaCl from blue-Sepharose CL-6B. The activity of HGDGF toward human embryonic cells (TIG-3) was quantitated, [3H]thymidine incorporation for 48 h being stimulated in a linear and dose-dependent manner. Purified HGDGF has a molecular weight of approximately 13,000, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and molecular sieve column chromatography. HGDGF is labile to treatment with SH reagents or acetic acid. Both trypsin digestion and boiling decrease the activity of HGDGF. Its pI is 5.1. HGDGF stimulates the multiplication of TIG-3 cells but has no effect on human endothelial cells K2T1 or A2T2 which require fibroblast growth factor for growth. HGDGF appears to differ from other growth factors, suggesting that it is a previously undescribed growth factor. 相似文献

Phosphorylation and DNA binding of nuclear rat liver proteins soluble at low ionic strength. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Proteins were extracted from isolated rat liver nuclei with 0.15 M NaCl and 0.35 M NaCl at pH 8.0. The number of phosphoproteins in these extracts was determined by labeling with 32P and autoradiography after two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Two proteins, B22p and B24p, contained small amounts of 32P and sedimented with the 30S nuclear informofer particle. With the exception of two phosphoproteins, CB and CN', all of the phosphoproteins found in the 0.35 M NaCl extract. Approximately 20% of the 0.15 M NaCl soluble proteins bound to rat liver DNA in 0.05 M KCl-0.05 M Tris-HCl (pH 8). Of these proteins, 1-2% bound to DNA in 0.15 M KCl and were eluted with 2 M KCl. This DNA bound fraction which contained both phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated proteins was similar in both the 0.15 and 0.35 M NaCl extracts. However, two major proteins (C13 and C14) and three minor proteins (C15, C25, Cg') were present only in the 0.15 M NaCl extract. The results of the present study show that there are marked similarities in the two-dimensional gel electrophoretic, phosphorylation, and DNA binding properties of rat liver nuclear proteins soluble in either 0.15 or 0.35 M NaCl. 相似文献

The temperature (0 degrees C and 37 degrees C) and the medium tonicity (0.15-1.20 M NaCl) were shown to affect erythrocyte agglutination by concanavalin A. Treatment of cells with lectin caused no significant decrease in the erythrocyte hemolysis upon cooling. Diamide, unlike concanavalin A used at concentrations above 2.0 M decreases the cell sensitivity to the cold shock. The changes in the erythrocyte susceptibility to cooling within the temperature range of 37-0 degrees C correlate with changes in the electrophoretic spectrum of membrane proteins. The progressive decrease in the spectrin bands intensity with a simultaneous formation of high molecular weight protein aggregates not included in the gel composition was observed after diamide treatment. The diamide effect depends on the medium tonicity, at which the treatment was performed, being especially well pronounced in hypertonic media with 0.8-1.2 M NaCl concentrations, the maximal spectrin aggregation being observed under these conditions. It is suggested that the main factor of the mechanism underlying the erythrocyte hypertonic cold shock is the increase in the association of peripheral cytoskeleton proteins with plasma membrane in osmotically dehydrated cells which limits the ability of lipids to adapt during cooling and results in the stabilization of defects in the membrane structure at low temperatures. Diamide eliminates these unfavourable changes eventually resulting in the dissociation of peripheral proteins from the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane on the protein aggregation. 相似文献

A heparan sulfate proteoglycan from bovine lung gas-exchange tissue was isolated by extraction of the tissue with 4.0 M guanidine HCl in the presence of multiple protein inhibitors. The proteoglycan was purified by precipitation with cetylpyridinium chloride in 0.5 M KCl followed by CsCl isopycnic centrifugation (po = 1.45) in 4.0 M guanidine/HCl. Further purification was achieved by gel filtration on Sepharose CL-2B and by chromatography in DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B column. The proteoglycan had 14.9% protein and 22.4% uronate. Heparan sulfate chains from the proteoglycan were isolated after beta-elimination. Fractionation of heparan sulfate chains was achieved on Dowex-1 Cl- column, eluting with a stepwise increase in the concentration of NaCl, 1.0 to 2.0 M with 0.2 M increments. Of the total heparan sulfate recovered from the column, about 10% eluted by 1.2 M NaCl, 68% by 1.4 M NaCl, 18% by 1.6 M NaCl and 4% by 1.8 M NaCl. The fractions varied in their total and N-sulfate ester contents and iduronic acid to glucuronic acid ratios. The fraction that eluted from the Dowex-1 Cl- column at 1.6 M NaCl had the highest molecular weight, 37000, and the fraction that eluted at 1.8 M NaCl had the lowest molecular weight, 12000, as determined by gel filtration method, and the greatest sulfate content. The core protein, obtained by digestion of proteoglycan by heparan sulfate lyase, showed mostly a single band in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The observations indicate a heterogeneity of the composition of heparan sulfate chains in the proteoglycan. This heterogeneity likely contributes to variations in biologic properties of different heparan sulfate proteoglycan preparations. 相似文献

Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein preparations were obtained from calf urine by 1.0 M NaCl precipitation followed by 4 M urea/Sepharose 4B chromatography. By using 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a molecular weight of 86 500 +/- 4500 (n = 12) was calculated for the glycoprotein. Amino acid and carbohydrate analyses were performed, the carbohydrate composition being (in residues per 100 amino acid residues in the glycoprotein): fucose, 0.90; galactose, 4.82; mannose, 4.63;N-acetylglucosamine, 7.36; N-acetylgalactosamine, 1.38; sialic acid, 2.93. Under conditions of mild acid hydrolysis (0.05 M H2SO4, 80 degrees C, 1 h) the calf Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein preparations were degraded partially into two lower molecular weight fragments (approximate Mr 66 000 and 51 000), as shown by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, both fragments being periodic acid-Schiff reagent positive. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factors (IGF)-I and -II are bound to carrier or binding proteins in serum. There are at least two classes of binding protein: a high molecular weight complex and a low molecular weight species that is relatively unsaturated. Total binding capacity in serum generally is determined by incubating [125I]IGF with protein that has been stripped of IGF by acid gel filtration. We found that addition of NaCl to the assay increased binding to stripped guinea pig binding protein to about two to four times the level measured in the absence of salt. Stimulation by NaCl was optimal between concentrations of 0.6 and 1.4 M and also was observed when fetal calf or human sera were used as sources of stripped binding protein or when IGF-II was the ligand. Using chloride salts, the order of activity with respect to cations was Na+ greater than K+ greater than Li+. Na2HPO4 at 0.6 M was as stimulatory as 1.2 M NaCl but 0.6 M Na2SO4 was less effective. NH4HCO3 was as effective as NaCl at 0.6 M. Scatchard plots of data from competitive dilution experiments with [125I]IGF-I and unlabeled IGF-I showed that binding was heterogeneous in the absence of 0.6 M NaCl but linear in its presence. NaCl did not stimulate binding when whole serum was used, but after gel filtration of serum on Sephacryl 200 at pH 8, which does not dissociate IGFs from binding protein, binding to individual fractions was stimulated three- to fourfold by NaCl. Fractions stimulated included those containing the large complex or the unsaturated binding protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A low concentration of hyaluronan (HA) in lymph compared with tissue suggests a large bound fraction. To investigate the distribution and mobility of HA and serum albumin (Alb), we eluted the rat tail tendon with a series of l5 successive centrifugations, each preceded by the addition of 0.15 M NaCl (15% of initial wet wt). The eluate concentration fell exponentially versus the accumulated eluate, allowing estimation of the maximal elutable amount (E(HA) and E(Alb)). Alb elution was practically complete from a space of approximately 28% of wet wt at all centrifugation rates. Twenty percent of HA was elutable at 500 rpm, apparently from the same space as Alb, increasing to 40% at >4,000 rpm. This pattern was not significantly influenced by using 2 M NaCl or by the addition of plasma or metabolic inhibitors. Without prehydration and centrifugation at high revolutions per minute, both Alb and HA concentrations fell rapidly toward zero, presumably in part reflecting mobilization of HA- and Alb-free fluid from the collagen intrafibrillar space (3). We conclude that with prehydration the fibrils swell, increasing the intramolecular spaces to become "penetrable" to HA and allowing removal of HA-containing fluid when the fibrils are compressed by the next centrifugation at high revolutions per minute, increasing E(HA) from 23 to 45%. Chemical binding presumably explains the unelutable 55% of tendon HA. Intrafibrillar HA may act to stabilize the fibrillar volume. 相似文献

A method is presented for isolation of 1ipoprotein-acid mucopolysaccharide complexes from fatty streaks of human aorta. The complexes were extracted from fatty streaks with 0.15M NaCl and fractionated by gel filtration followed by ultracentrifugation at densities 1.006 and 1.065- The solvent density 1.065 was achieved by using D2O instead of NaCl which decreased dissociation of the complexes. These studies demonstrated that low and very low density lipoproteins are directly involved in the complexing of lipoproteins with mucopolysaccharides in the matrix of aorta intima. 相似文献

Heparinase (EC 4.2.2.7) isolated from Flavobacterium heparinum was purified to homogeneity by a combination of hydroxylapatite chromatography, repeated gel filtration chromatography, and chromatofocusing. Homogeneity was established by the presence of a single band on both sodium dodecyl sulfate and acid-urea gel electrophoretic systems. Amino acid analysis shows that the enzyme contains relatively high amounts of lysine residues (9%) consistent with its cationic nature (pI 8.5) but contains only 4 cysteine residues/polypeptide. The molecular weight of heparinase was estimated to be 42,900 +/- 1,000 daltons by gel filtration and 42,700 +/- 1,200 daltons by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme is very specific, acting only on heparin and heparan monosulfate out of 12 similar polysaccharide substrates tested. It has an activity maximum at pH 6.5 and 0.1 M NaCl and a stability maximum at pH 7.0 and 0.15 M NaCl. The Arrhenius activation energy was found to be 6.3 kcal/mol. However, the enzyme is very sensitive to thermal denaturation and loses activity very rapidly at temperatures over 40 degrees C. Kinetic studies of the heparinase reaction at 37 degrees C gave a Km of 8.04 X 10(-6) M and a Vm of 9.85 X 10(-5) M/min at a protein concentration of 0.5 microgram/ml. By adapting batch procedures of hydroxylapatite and QAE (quaternary aminoethyl)-Sephadex chromatography, gram quantities of heparinase that is nearly free of catalytic enzyme contaminants can be purified in 4-5 h. 相似文献

In this work hemagglutinating activity (HA) was investigated in distinct Moringa oleifera tissue extracts. A new lectin from seeds (cMoL) was purified and characterized; hemagglutinating and coagulating activities were evaluated. HA was detected in 0.15 M NaCl extracts from flowers and rachis inflorescence (5%, w/v), seeds, leaves, fundamental tissue of stem and steam bark (10%, w/v). cMoL isolated after saline extraction and guar gel column chromatography was active at pH range 4.0–9.0 agglutinating erythrocytes from rabbit and human blood types. Extracts of tissues and cMoL activities were carbohydrate inhibited; azocasein and asialofetuin abolished cMoL HA. The lectin was thermostable at 100 °C during 7 h. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reduced conditions revealed a main polypeptide band of 26.5 kDa; native basic cMoL was detected as a unique band. Seed lectin preparations and cMoL showed coagulant activity, similar to aluminium sulphate, the coagulant most widely used in water treatment. 相似文献

Hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid, HA) was for the first time extracted, purified and characterized from the species of mollusc bivalve Mytilus galloprovincialis. HA was characterized by agarose-gel electrophoresis, 13C-NMR, HPLC and normal polarity capillary electrophoresis by evaluating the unsaturated disaccharide, DeltaDiHA (Delta-hexuronic acid-N-acetyl-glucosamine) after treatment with chondroitin ABC lyase, and by separating Delta-tetrasaccharide and Delta-hexasaccharide generated by the specific action of hyaluronate lyase from Streptomyces hyalurolyticus. The weight average molecular weight (M(w)) was found to be about 200 kDa as determined by HPSEC. HA from M. galloprovincialis was not able to interact with aggrecan from bovine cartilage to form high molecular mass aggregate and also had a very low specific viscosity, but it showed the same capacity to inhibit cell proliferation (50 microg per 10(3) human fibroblasts inhibit cell proliferation by about 50%) than high molecular mass HA. HA of M. galloprovincialis could have a physiological role in the regulation of cell functions. 相似文献

Circular dichroism measurements were performed with 38 S ribonucleoprotein (nRNP) particles from rat liver nuclei. The positive CD-band around 264 nm increased 1.5-fold in the presence of 2 M NaCl consistent with the breakage of ionic interactions between RNA and proteins. Several distinct low molecular weight RNA species ranging from 5 to 8 S were detected in the 38 S nRNP particles by means of acrylamide gel electrophoresis in formamide. 相似文献

Nine hyaluronan (HA) samples were fractionated by size-exclusion chromatography, and molar mass (M), radius of gyration (Rg), and intrinsic viscosity ([eta]) were measured in 0.15 M NaCl at 37 degrees C by on-line multiangle light scattering and viscometer detectors. Using such method, we investigated the Rg and [eta] molar mass dependence for HA over a very wide range of molar masses: M ranging from 4 x 10(4) to 5.5 x 10(6) g/mol. The Rg and the [eta] molar mass dependence found for HA showed a meaningful difference. The Rg = f(M) power law was substantially linear in the whole range of molar masses explored with a constant slope of 0.6. In contrast, the [eta] = f(M) power law (Mark-Houwink-Sakurada plot) showed a marked curve shape, and a linear regression over the whole range of molar masses does not make sense. Also the persistence length (stiffness) for HA was estimated. The persistence length derived by using both the Odijk's model (7.5 nm from Rg vs M data) and the Bohdanecky's plot (6.8 nm from [eta] vs M data) were quite similar. These persistence length values are congruent with a semistiff conformation of HA macromolecules. 相似文献

Fractions from a Sephadex gel filtration of homogenized Ascidia nigra blood cell lysate were analyzed for vanadium by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The results were unaffected by temperature from 4-21 degrees C, and by ionic strength in the range 0.09-1.0 M (NaCl). Appreciable loss of vanadium in the supernatant was experienced above pH 2.2. Experiments at pH 2.1 under anaerobic conditions show that the green chromogen and the vanadium-containing bands elute separately. Under these experimental conditions, the vanadium-containing species is of relatively low (congruent to 1,000) molecular weight. 相似文献
