The high level expression and purification of rat monoamine oxidase B (rMAOB) in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is reported. Nearly 100 mg of purified rMAOB is obtained from 130 g (wet weight) of cells (0.5 L of culture). The MALDI-TOF mass spectrum of the purified protein shows a single species with a molecular mass of 59.228 ± 0.064 kDa, which agrees with the calculated molecular weight of 59.172 kDa for the rMAOB protein sequence assuming one mole of covalent FAD per mole of the enzyme. Consistent with the MALDI-MS data, purified rMAOB shows a single band near 60 kDa in Coomassie-stained SDS–PAGE gel as well as on Western blot analyses performed using antisera raised against human MAOA and BSA-conjugated FAD. A partial amino acid sequence of the purified protein is confirmed to be that of the wild type rMAOB by in-gel trypsin digestion and MALDI-TOF-MS analyses of the liberated peptide fragments. Steady state kinetic data show that purified rMAOB exhibits a Km(amine) of 176 ± 15 μM and a kcat of 497 ± 83 min−1 for benzylamine oxidation, and a Km(O2) of 170 ± 10 μM. Kinetic parameters obtained for purified rMAOB are compared with those reported earlier for recombinant human liver MAOB expressed in P. pastoris. 相似文献

Cytochrome c oxidase of Nitrosomonas europaea reacts with not only the native cytochrome c (N. europaea cytochrome c-552) but also horse and yeast cytochromes c. The effects on its reactivity of various reagents were very different between the reactions with the native and eukaryotic cytochromes c as the electron donors. The oxidation of eukaryotic ferrocytochrome c by the oxidase was activated by addition of anionic detergents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate and sodium cholate, and anionic phospholipids such as cardiolipin, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylethanolamine, while the reaction was not activated by Triton X-100, Tween 20, or phosphatidylcholine. However, the reaction with the native cytochrome c of the enzyme was hardly affected by any of the detergents and phospholipids mentioned above, while it was activated by the presence of poly-L-lysine. 相似文献

The activated glucocorticoid receptor (GR) from rat liver cytosol was purified by sequential chromatography on DNA-cellulose and DEAE-Sepharose. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis demonstrated a main band with Mr = 94,000 (94K band). Two minor bands with Mr = 79,000 (79K band) and 72,000 (72K band) were also seen in this preparation. Photoaffinity labeling showed that the hormone is bound to the 94K and 79K components but not to the 72K component. Immunoblotting using antibodies raised against the 94K protein demonstrated cross-reactivity between the 94K and 79K components but not with the 72K species. The 72K species could be partially separated from the 94K and 79K components by density gradient centrifugation. Limited proteolysis of the purified GR with trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin led to degradation of the 94K and 79K components and appearance of a 39K fragment which still retained the hormone and could be bound to DNA-cellulose. The 72K component was not affected by digestion with trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin. However, chromatography on DNA-cellulose of the alpha-chymotrypsin-treated GR resulted in elution of the 72K component in the flow-through of the column while the 39K fragment was retained on the column and eluted with 0.18 M NaCl. In the control experiment where no alpha-chymotrypsin treatment was performed, the 72K component could not be detected in the flow-through fraction but was eluted together with the 94K and 79K components at 0.18 M NaCl. These results suggest that the 72K protein might be bound to the 94K and/or 79K component. The 39K fragment did not bind antibodies raised against the 94K protein. The 39K fragment was further degraded by trypsin but not by alpha-chymotrypsin to a 27K and a 25K fragment while both still retained the ligand. These data obtained with limited proteolysis of the purified GR are in agreement with previous findings on proteolysis of the GR in crude cytosol (Wrange, O., and Gustafsson, J.-A. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 856-865; Carlstedt-Duke, J., Okret, S., Wrange, O., and Gustafsson, J.-A. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 79, 4260-4264). 相似文献

Cytochrome c oxidase has been purified from rat liver mitochondria using affinity chromatography. The preparation contains 10.5 to 13.4 nmol of heme a + a3 per mg of protein and migrates as a single band during polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under nondissociating conditions. It has a heme a/a3 ratio of 1.12 and is free of cytochromes b, c, and c1 as well as the enzymes, NADH dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, coenzyme Q-cytochrome c reductase, and ATPase. The enzyme preparation consists of six polypeptides having apparent Mr of 66,000, 39,000, 23,000, 14,000, 12,500 and 10,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The peptide composition is similar to those found for cytochrome c oxidases from other systems. The enzymatic activity of the purified enzyme is completely inhibited by carbon monoxide or cyanide, partially inhibited by Triton X-100 and dramatically enhanced by Tween 80 or phospholipids. 相似文献

Aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2, and M1 have been evaluated for activity toward cytochrome oxidase in isolated rat liver mitochondria employing ferrocytochrome c and p-phenylene diamine as reductants. The aflatoxins inhibited the cytochrome oxidase activity to a greater extent when monitored by O2 uptake measurements than by substrate oxidation. AFG2 and AFM1 were the most potent (50-70%). Using oligomycin and 2,4-DNP as respiratory inhibitor and uncoupler, respectively, the aflatoxins appear to inhibit e- rather than energy transfer reactions. These toxins did not uncouple cytochrome oxidase activity. 相似文献

The existence of an external hexammineruthenium-stimulated NADH oxidase in rat liver mitochondria is postulated. This enzyme is localized on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane, is specific for NADH and requires oxygen. The apparent affinity of the enzyme for NADH amounts to about 4 microM. Furthermore, the enzyme is characterized by an alkaline pH optimum and a linear Arrhenius plot (14 kJ/mol). The electron transfer from NADH to oxygen is not linked with the respiratory chain but is connected with the formation of superoxide radicals. 相似文献

Characterization of the cytochrome c oxidase in isolated and purified plasma membranes from the cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Functionally intact plasma membranes were isolated from the cyanobacterium (blue-green alga) Anacystis nidulans through French pressure cell extrusion of lysozyme/EDTA-treated cells, separated from thylakoid membranes by discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and purified by repeated recentrifugation. Origin and identity of the chlorophyll-free plasma membrane fraction were confirmed by labeling of intact cells with impermeant protein markers, [35S]diazobenzenesulfonate and fluorescamine, prior to membrane isolation. Rates of oxidation of reduced horse heart cytochrome c by purified plasma and thylakoid membranes were 90 and 2 nmol min-1 (mg of protein)-1, respectively. The cytochrome oxidase in isolated plasma membranes was identified as a copper-containing aa3-type enzyme from the properties of its redox-active and EDTA-resistant Cu2+ ESR signal, the characteristic inhibition profile, reduced minus oxidized difference spectra, carbon monoxide difference spectra, photoaction and photodissociation spectra of the CO-inhibited enzyme, and immunological cross-reaction of two subunits of the enzyme with antibodies against subunits I and II, and the holoenzyme, of Paracoccus denitrificans aa3-type cytochrome oxidase. The data presented are the first comprehensive evidence for the occurrence of aa3-type cytochrome oxidase in the plasma membrane of a cyanobacterium similar to the corresponding mitochondrial enzyme (EC 1.9.3.1). 相似文献

Rat liver cytochrome c oxidase (ferrocytochrome c: oxygen oxidoreductase; EC 1.9.3.1) was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into 12 different polypeptide chains. Specific antisera against the holoenzyme and against purified subunits IV and VIII were used to characterize the enzyme complex. The antiserum against subunit IV precipitates from sodium dodecyl sulfate-dissociated mitochondria only subunit IV and from Triton X-100-dissolved mitochondria all 12 polypeptide chains, indicating their integral location within the enzyme complex. Different antisera against the holoenzyme only precipitate subunits IV, V and VIb from sodium dodecyl sulfate-dissociated mitochondria, suggesting the location of these subunits on the surface layer of the complex. Subunit VIII is thought to be located within the complex, since a specific antiserum does not precipitate the complex. The amino acid composition of all 12 protein subunits is different, thus excluding their origin from proteolytic degradation. The proteolytic degradation of subunit IV into IV during isolation of the enzyme was corroborated by the very similar amino acid composition of both proteins. 相似文献

Cytochrome P-448 from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats has been purified to a specific content of greater than 20 nmoles/mg protein, and cytochrome P-450 from phenobarbital-treated rats to greater than 17 nmoles/mg protein. Both cytochromes are catalytically active when reconstituted with lipid and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and exhibit differential substrate specificities for benzphetamine and benzo[a]pyrene. Cytochrome P-448 has a minimum molecular weight of approximately 53,000, and cytochrome P-450, 48,000 by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 相似文献

beta 1----4 Galactosyltransferase was purified from rat liver microsomes. Catalytic properties of the enzyme resembled those of previously purified soluble and membrane-bound beta 1----4 galactosyltransferases. The enzyme purified in the present study showed a major band around a molecular weight of 53,000 on SDS-PAGE. The NH2-terminal sequence of the enzyme was determined up to the 20th residue. The sequence was identical to the amino acid sequence from Ala-13 to Lys-32 deduced from mouse beta 1----4 galactosyltransferase cDNA. These results suggest that most of the mature enzyme in rat liver microsomes is produced by removal of the NH2-terminal 12 amino acids from a precursor polypeptide. 相似文献

Isolated rat hepatocytes were labelled with [35S]methionine, dissolved in Triton X-100-containing buffer, and incubated with antibodies against rat liver cytochrome c oxidase. After separation by dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis the fluorogram of immunoprecipitated proteins showed two labelled bands with apparent molecular weights of 52000 and 182000. The immunological relationship of the two proteins to cytochrome c oxidase was demonstrated by immunocompetition with the isolated enzyme and with purified subunits IV-VIII. Although the precursor nature of the two described proteins for cytoplasmically synthesized subunits of cytochrome c oxidase cannot be excluded, the following observations do not support this assumption: 1) The amount of incorporated radioactivity is too high; 2) they are exclusively located with the microsomal fraction; 3) the turnover is rather slow, compared to that of known precursor proteins. 相似文献

When isolated mitochondria which have been labeled with [3H]leucine are solubilized and treated with anti-serum specific for cytochrome c oxidase, labeled polypeptides which correspond to the three largest polypeptides of this enzyme are immunoprecipitated. This indicates that the three largest polypeptides of cytochrome c oxidase which have Mr of 66,000, 39,000, and 23,000 are synthesized by isolated mitochondria whereas the three smallest ones which have Mr of 14,000, 12,500, and 10,000 are not. The smallest polypeptides are probably synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes as has been demonstrated in other systems by in vivo studies. These results are the first demonstration that isolated mammalian mitochondria are capable of synthesizing some of their own polypeptide components. The antiserum used in this study was prepared to highly purified cytochrome c oxidase (12.4 nmol of heme a + a3/mg of protein) from rat liver mitochondria. This antiserum gives a single precipitin line when tested by the Ouchterlony double diffusion technique. Its specificity has been demonstrated by the fact that it: 1) only precipitates heme a + a3, not hemes b, c, or c1, when added to solubilized mitochondria, 2) inhibits cytochrome c oxidase activity at least 85%, and 3) precipitates only those polypeptides found in purified cytochrome c oxidase when added to solubilized mitochondria labeled in vivo. 相似文献

The percent of mitochondrial protein contamination in nuclei decreased 10-fold (from 18 to 1.8%) under purification of protein-labelled mitochondria before their introduction into nuclei-free homogenate, cytochromoxidase activity being unchanged. Thus, cytochromoxidase activity of nuclei does not correlate with the amount of nuclei-adsorbed mitochondrial protein, which demonstrates the presence of nuclear cytochromoxidase independent on mitochondrial protein. Radioactivity of protein-labelled mitochondria is proportially distributed between globuline, deoxyribonucleoprotein, acid and residual nuclear proteins, as it is shown under fractionation of nuclei isolated from protein-labeled mitochondria containing homogenate. The comparison of mitochondrial protein contamination of nuclear membranes and their possible contamination with cytochromoxidase and suecinate-cytochrome-c-reducatase activities revealed that cytochromoxidase activity of nuclear membranes is twice higher and succinate-cytochrome-c-reductase activity is considerably lower than it can be referred to mitochondrial protein contamination. The ratio of cytochrome-c-oxidase and succinate-cytochrome-c-reductase activities in isolated nuclear membranes is 4-7 times as high as that in mitochondrial membranes under the same isolation procedure. The data obtained make possible to consider the cytochromoxidase activity of nuclear membranes to be really nuclear enzyme, and not a contominant of nucleipreparation with mitochondrial membranes. 相似文献

By antibody screening of a rat liver and a rat heart cDNA library in lambda gt11 two clones coding for the liver- and heart-specific subunit VIa of rat cytochrome c oxidase were isolated. In the heart cDNA sequence a TAA stop codon was found in frame 18 bp 5' upstream of the first methionine codon, thus excluding a leader sequence for this protein. The two cDNAs contain the full-length coding region of two subunits. The amino acid sequences of the two subunits show only 50% homology, whereas 74% homology was found between rat heart and bovine heart subunit VIa. By Northern blot analysis it is shown that the gene for subunit VIa from heart is only expressed in heart and skeletal muscle, whereas that from liver is also expressed in kidney, brain, heart and weakly in muscle. 相似文献
