Ornithine decarboxylase (ornithine carboxy lyase; EC 4.1.1.17) (ODC) from Tetrahymena thermophila was purified 6,300 fold employing fractionated ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel permeation chromatography on Sephadex G-150, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, and preparative isoelectric focussing. The product obtained in 24% yield was a preparation of the specific activity of 10,200 nmol CO2mdh-1mdmg-1. The purified enzyme was rather stable at 37°C (14% loss of activity within 1 h). The molecular and catalytic properties of this enzyme were investigated. The isoelectric point was 5.7 and the molecular weight (MW) was estimated to be 68,000 under nondenaturing conditions. The pH optimum was between 6.0 and 7.0, the Km for the substrate L-ornithine was 0.11 mM, and the Km for the cofactor pyridoxal 5-phosphate was 0.12 μM; the product of ODC catalysis, putrescine, was a poor inhibitor with an estimated Ki of about 10 mM. The enzyme was inhibited competitively by D-ornithine with a Ki of 1.6 mM and by α-difluoromethylornithine with a Ki of 0.15 mM. The latter one, an enzyme activated irreversible inhibitor of mammalian ODC, inactivated the enzyme from T. thermophila at high concentrations with a half life time of 14 min. Other basic amino acids, e.g. L-lysine, L-arginine, and L-histidine, were neither substrates nor inhibitors of the enzyme, as were the diamines 1,3-diaminopropanol and cadaverine, the polyamines spermidine and spermine and the cosubstrate analogues pyridoxal and pyridoxamine-5-phosphate. Polyanions were activators of the enzyme: The half maximal ODC stimulating concentrations were 2.2 μgmdml-1 for RNA, 6.1 μgmdml-1 for DNA, and 0.25 μgmdml-1 for heparin. These results indicate that ODC from T. thermophila shares several properties with ODC preparations from other organisms but in some respects, especially in activator and inhibitor specificity, there are some special qualities unique to this particular protozoan enzyme. 相似文献

L-Arginine iminohydrolase (arginine deiminase, ADI) from Tetrahymena thermophila was purified approx. 75-fold by means of gel permeation chromatography. The Km of the purified enzyme for L-arginine was 412 +/- 25 microM and L-ornithine inhibited the reaction competitively with a Ki of 985 +/- 105 microM. D-Ornithine was a weak inhibitor with a Ki of greater than 10mM. The polyamines putrescine and spermidine inhibited ADI incompetitively with a Kii of 2.8mM for putrescine and 4.3mM for spermidine. Since the concentrations required for inhibition were within the range of the normal intracellular polyamine concentrations in Tetrahymena (maximally 14mM putrescine and 4mM spermidine), it is suggested that the polyamine effects on ADI are of regulatory nature. Thus, polyamine biosynthesis in Tetrahymena thermophila is regulated not only on the level of ornithine decarboxylase activity, but also on an earlier step, the supply of ODC with substrates. 相似文献

Purification and properties of L-aspartate aminotransferase of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An enzyme which catalyzes the transamination of L-aspartate with 2-oxoglutarate has been purified 400-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity from the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii 6145c. An apparent relative molecular mass of 138,000 was estimated by gel filtration. The enzyme is a dimer consisting of two identical subunits of Mr 65,000 each as deduced from PAGE/SDS studies. A stoichiometry of two molecules pyridoxal 5-phosphate/enzyme molecule was calculated. The enzyme has an isoelectric point of 8.48 and its absorption spectrum exhibits a maximum at 412 nm which is shifted to 330 nm upon addition of L-aspartate. L-Aspartate or pyridoxal 5-phosphate, but not 2-oxoglutarate, protected the enzyme from heat inactivation. The purified enzyme was able to transaminate, although to a low extent, L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine with 2-oxoglutarate, and L-serine, L-alanine and L-glutamine with oxaloacetate. L-Aspartate aminotransferase exhibited hyperbolic kinetics for 2-oxoglutarate and oxaloacetate, and nonhyperbolic behaviour for L-aspartate and L-glutamate. Apparent Km values were 0.55 mM for 2-oxoglutarate, 0.044 mM for oxaloacetate, 2.53 mM for L-aspartate and 3.88 mM for L-glutamate. Transamination of L-aspartate in C. reinhardtii is a bisubstrate reaction with a bi-bi ping-pong mechanism, and is not inhibited by substrates. 相似文献

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) was induced in rat small intestine by treatment with hypotonic solution in vitro and purified by two procedures, a conventional procedure and an immunoaffinity procedure. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the molecular weight of the preparation purified by the immunoaffinity procedure (Mr = 53,000) was slightly larger than that of the preparation obtained by the conventional procedure (Mr = 52,000). Values for the Km for L-ornithine (0.1 mM), the isoelectric point (5.4), and the final specific activity (5.1-5.5 x 10(5) nmol CO2/mg protein/30 min) of the two preparations were similar to those reported for the rat liver ODC. Addition of a protease inhibitor (limabean trypsin inhibitor) to the crude extract prevented the appearance of the smaller enzyme (Mr = 52,000) obtained by the conventional purification procedure. Our result indicates that the large enzyme is native ODC and the smaller one is a partial proteolysis product of native ODC. 相似文献

Purification and properties of myo-inositol-1-phosphatase from rat brain 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
myo-Inositol-1-phosphatase [EC 3.1.3.25] was purified from a cytosolic fraction of rat brain. The purified enzyme appeared homogeneous on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular weight was estimated to be 29,000. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was 55,000 as determined by molecular sieve chromatography. These values indicated that the native enzyme was composed of two identical subunits. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 4.6. The enzyme hydrolyzed inositol-1-phosphate, 2'-AMP, 2'-GMP, beta-glycerophosphate, and alpha-glycerophosphate; the ratio of the reaction rates was 100 : 84 : 73 : 64 : 32. The Km values for inositol-1-phosphate, 2'-AMP, and beta-glycerophosphate were 1.2 X 10(-4) M, 1.9 X 10(-4) M, and 7.7 X 10(-4) M, respectively. Mn2+ and Ca2+ were strong competitive inhibitors against Mg2+, with Ki values of 3 microM and 20 microM, respectively. This result suggests that myo-inositol-1-phosphatase might be regulated by intracellular Ca2+ and/or Mn2+. Li+, which is known to show a therapeutic effect on manic-depressive disease and also to prolong the intrinsic periods of circadian rhythms in various organisms, was a potent uncompetitive inhibitor and inhibited 50% of the activity at 1 mM. The possibility that myo-inositol-1-phosphatase and inositol phospholipid metabolism are involved in circadian rhythm oscillation is discussed in terms of Li actions. 相似文献

An enzyme which catalyzes the transamination of L-alanine with 2-oxoglutarate has been purified 157-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity from the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii 6145c. The enzyme showed maximal activity at pH 7.3 and 50 degrees C, has an apparent molecular mass of 105 kDa as estimated by gel filtration, and consists of two identical subunits of 45 kDa each as deduced from PAGE/SDS studies. A stoichiometry of two moles pyridoxal 5-phosphate/mole enzyme was calculated. The enzyme has an isoelectric point of 8.3 and its absorption spectrum exhibits a maximum at 412 nm which is shifted to 330 nm upon addition of L-alanine. Pyridoxal 5-phosphate protected activity against heat inactivation and, to a minor extent, L-alanine and 2-oxoglutarate, but not L-glutamate. Spectral data and activity inhibition and protection studies strongly support the involvement of pyridoxal 5-phosphate in enzyme catalysis through a Schiff's base formation. The purified enzyme was able to transaminate only L-alanine and L-glutamate with glyoxylate out of ten amino acids tested. L-Alanine aminotransferase exhibited hyperbolic kinetic for 2-oxoglutarate, pyruvate, and L-glutamate, and nonhyperbolic behaviour for L-alanine. Apparent Km values were 0.054 mM for 2-oxoglutarate, 0.52 for L-glutamate, 0.24 mM for pyruvate, and 2.7 mM for L-alanine. Transamination of L-alanine in C. reinhardtii is a bisubstrate reaction with a bi-bi ping-pong mechanism, and is not inhibited by substrates. 相似文献

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) was purified 25000-fold from calf liver to apparent homogeneity by methods developed to circumvent the lability of the enzyme. Appropriate ratios of sample protein applied to column size and/or gradient size were derived for each purification procedure (ion-exchange, gel filtration ahd hydroxylapatite chromatography, electrophoresis, and thiol affinity chromatography) to maintain enzymatic activity. The enzyme was labile to dilution at all steps of the purification; the inclusion of poly(ethylene glycol) or additional protein decreased but did not eliminate the activity loss. The purified enzyme had a Stokes radius of 3.14 and a molecular weight of 54000. The Km for ornithine was 0.12 mM, and pyridoxal phosphate was 2.0 microM; the pH optimum for the decarboxylation reaction was 7.0. Analysis by sievorptive ion-exchange chromatography indicated the presence of three ionic forms. In the presence of Tris-barbital buffer containing thioglycolic acid, the ODC preparation assumed an apparent molecular weight of 100000 and a Stokes radius of 4.5 and retained full catalytic activity. 相似文献

Purification and properties of inositol-1,4-bisphosphate 4-phosphohydrolase from rat brain 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Inositol-1,4-bisphosphate 4-phosphohydrolase (inositol-1,4-bisphosphatase) was highly purified from a soluble fraction of rat brain. On SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified enzyme gave a single protein band and its molecular weight was estimated to be 42000. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 4.3. The enzyme specifically hydrolyzed the 4-phosphomonoester linkage of inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. The Km value for inositol 1,4-bisphosphate was 30 microM, and it required Mg2+ for activity. Ca2+ was a competitive inhibitor with a Ki value of 60 microM as regards the Mg2+ binding. Li+, which is known to be a strong inhibitor of inositol 1-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.25), inhibited the enzyme activity and caused 50% inhibition at a concentration of 1 mM (IC50 = 1 mM). Li+ was an uncompetitive inhibitor of substrate binding with a Ki value of 0.6 mM. These inhibitory parameters of Li+ were quite similar to those for inositol 1-phosphatase (IC50 = 1 mM, Ki = 0.3 mM). Thus, the effect of Li+ on decreasing the free inositol level with a subsequent decrease in agonist-sensitive phosphoinositides, is caused by its inhibition of multiple enzymes involved in conversion of inositol 1,4-bisphosphate to inositol. 相似文献

3-Deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (KDO)-8-phosphate synthetase has been purified 450-fold from frozen Escherichia coli B cells. The purified enzyme catalyzed the stoichiometric formation of KDO-8-phosphate and Pi from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and D-arabinose-5-phosphate. The enzyme showed no metal requirement for activity and was inhibited by 1 mM Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Hg2+. The inhibition by Hg2+ could be reversed by dithiothreitol. The optimum temperature for enzyme activity was determined to be 45 degrees C, and the energy of activation calculated by the Arrhenius equation was 15,000 calories (ca. 3,585 J) per mol. The enzyme activity was shown to be pH and buffer dependent, showing two pH optima, one at pH 4.0 to 6.0 in succinate buffer and one at pH 9.0 in glycine buffer. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 5.1. KDO-8-phosphate synthetase had a molecular weight of 90,000 +/- 6,000 as determined by molecular sieving through G-200 Sephadex and by Ferguson analysis using polyacrylamide gels. Based on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the 90,000-molecular-weight native enzyme was composed of three identical subunits, each with an apparent molecular weight of 32,000 +/- 4,000. The enzyme had an apparent Km for D-arabinose-5-phosphate of 2 X 10(-5) M and an apparent Km for PEP of 6 X 10(-6) M. No other sugar or sugar-phosphate could substitute for D-arabinose-5-phosphate. D-Ribose-5-phosphate was a competitive inhibitor of D-arabinose-5-phosphate, with an apparent Ki of 1 X 10(-3) M. The purified enzyme has been utilized to synthesize millimole quantities of pure KDO-8-phosphate. 相似文献

Purification and kinetic characterization of a dopamine-sulfating form of phenol sulfotransferase from human brain 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The kinetic and biochemical properties of a purified, monoamine-sulfating form of phenol sulfotransferase (M-PST) from human brain are described. M-PST activity was separated and purified from phenol-sulfating activity by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and subsequently purified on AffiGel Blue and Sephacryl S-200, routinely giving a final purification of over 20 000-fold, with approximately a 3% yield. The molecular weight of the active species, as estimated by gel filtration chromatography, was 250 000. The purified enzyme was inhibited by NaCl (50% at 325 mM) and showed an optimum for dopamine sulfation at pH 7.0. Of the monoamine substrates examined, 4-methoxytyramine was the most extensively sulfated at 20 microM, while at higher substrate concentrations (200 microM), tyramine was the apparent preferred substrate. Kinetic analysis demonstrated that sulfation by M-PST proceeds via an ordered, bisubstrate reaction mechanism, where 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) is the leading substrate. True Km values for dopamine and PAPS were 2.9 and 0.35 microM, respectively. The product inhibitor 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate possessed a Ki of 0.07 microM, while the dead-end inhibitor ATP exhibited a Ki of 170 microM. 相似文献

In the present study, we purified the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) which is involved in cellular energy production and has important housekeeping functions, from the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila using a three-step procedure. The enzyme was purified ~68 folds by ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by two steps of column chromatography (DEAE-cellulose and Mono-S). The purified enzyme is a homotetramer with a molecular weight of ~120 kDa. Isoelectric focusing analysis showed the presence of only one basic GAPDH isoform with an isoelectric point of 8.8. Western blot analysis showed a single 32-kDa band corresponding to the enzyme subunit using a monospecific polyclonal antibody against the T. thermophila GAPDH. The maximum of enzyme activity occurred at pH 8.0 and at 30-35°C. The apparent K(m) values for both NAD(+) and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate were 0.102 ± 0.012 and 0.360 ± 0.018 mM, respectively. The maximal velocity (V(max)) was 39.40 ± 2.95 U/mg. The T. thermophila GAPDH is inhibited by oxidative and nitrosative stress reagents. 相似文献

L-Serine dehydratase with a specific activity of 15 nkat/mg protein was present in the anaerobic eubacterium Peptostreptococcus asaccharolyticus grown either on L-glutamate or L-serine. The enzyme was highly specific for L-serine with the lowest Km = 0.8 mM ever reported for an L-serine dehydratase. L-Threonine (Km = 22 mM) was the only other substrate. V/Km for L-serine was 500 times higher than that for L-threonine. L-Cysteine was the best inhibitor (Ki = 0.3 mM, competitive towards L-serine). The enzyme was purified 400-fold to homogeneity under anaerobic conditions (specific activity 6 mukat/mg). PAGE in the presence of SDS revealed two subunits with similar intensities (alpha, 30 kDa; beta, 25 kDa). The molecular mass of the native enzyme was estimated as 200 +/- 20 kDa (gel filtration) and 180 kDa (gradient PAGE). In the absence of oxygen the enzyme was moderately stable even in the presence of sodium borohydride or phenylhydrazine (5 mM each). However, by exposure to air the activity was lost, especially when the latter agent was added. The enzyme was reactivated by ferrous ion under anaerobic conditions. The inability of several nucleophilic agents to inactivate the enzyme indicated the absence of pyridoxal phosphate. This was confirmed by a microbiological determination of pyridoxal phosphate. However, the enzyme contained 3.8 +/- 0.2 mol Fe and 5.6 +/- 0.3 mol inorganic sulfur/mol heterodimer (55 kDa) indicating the presence of an [Fe-S] center. The enzyme was successfully applied to measure L-serine concentrations in bacterial media and in human sera. 相似文献

The present study describes a new rapid procedure for purification of L-alanine:4,5-dioxovalerate transaminase from rat liver mitochondria which was purified 243-fold with a 32% yield to apparent homogeneity. The purification procedure involved protamine sulfate treatment, followed by phenyl-Sepharose CL-4B column chromatography and alanine-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The Km values for L-alanine and 4,5-dioxovalerate were 3.3 and 0.28 mM, respectively. The enzyme-bound pyridoxal phosphate content was estimated to be two molecules per enzyme molecule. The purified enzyme was inhibited by the reaction product pyruvic acid, substrate analog, methylglyoxal, and sulfhydryl inhibitors. Excess concentrations of 4,5-dioxovalerate was also found to inhibit the enzyme and our experiments failed to demonstrate reversibility of the reaction. Only hemin among the intermediate compounds of heme metabolism tested was shown to be an inhibitor of purified alanine:4,5-dioxovalerate transaminase. Hemin was further shown as an uncompetitive inhibitor of both alanine and dioxovalerate. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus NRRL 1555 (-) was partially purified. The enzyme showed a molecular weight of 85 700 as determined by gel-filtration. NADP+ protected the enzyme from inactivation. Magnesium ions did not affect the enzyme activity. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was specific for NADP+ as coenzyme. The reaction rates were hyperbolic functions of substrate and coenzyme concentrations. The Km values for NADP+ and glucose 6-phosphate were 39.8 and 154.4 microM, respectively. The kinetic patterns, with respect to coenzyme and substrate, indicated a sequential mechanism. NADPH was a competitive inhibitor with respect to NADP+ (Ki = 45.5 microM) and a non-competitive inhibitor with respect to glucose 6-phosphate. ATP inhibited the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The inhibition was of the linear-mixed type with respect to NADP+, the dissociation constant of the enzyme-ATP complex being 2.6 mM, and the enzyme-NADP+-ATP dissociation constant 12.8 mM. 相似文献

Polyamine synthesis in mammalian tissues. Isolation and characterization of spermine synthase from bovine brain 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Spermine synthase, a propylamine transferase, which catalyses the biosynthesis of spermine from S-methyladenosylhomocystemine and spermidine has been purified to an apparent homogeneity (about 6000-fold) from bovine brain using spermine-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The enzyme preparation was free from S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase and spermidine synthase activities. The molecular Stokes radius of the enzyme was calculated to be 4.16 nm. The enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of approximately 88 000, composing of two subunits of equal size. The enzyme showed a broad pH optimum between 7.0 and 8.0 and an acidic isoelectric point at pH 5.10. The apparent Km values for S-methyladenosylhomocysteamine was 0.6 microM and about 60 microM for spermidine. The enzyme showed strict specificity to spermidine as the propylamine acceptor. Both the reaction products, spermine and 5'-methylthioadenosine inhibited the enzyme activity, methylthioadenosine being a powerful competitive inhibitor with respect to S-methyladenosylhomocysteamine (Ki value of about 0.3 microM). Putrescine also inhibited competitively with respect to spermidine (Ki value of about 1.7 mM). Spermine synthase had no requirements for metal or other cofactors. 相似文献

Pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase from human jejunal brush borders. Purification and characterization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase was solubilized with Triton X-100 from human jejunal mucosal brush borders and purified approximately 5,000-fold using organomercurial affinity chromatography, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, and gel filtration. The apparent molecular weight of the purified enzyme in the Triton micelle was estimated as 700,000 using Bio-Gel A-1.5m gel filtration. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by Coomassie stain demonstrated two polypeptide bands at 145,000 and 115,000 daltons. The purified enzyme had an isoelectric point of 7.2, was maximally active at pH 5.5, and was stable above pH 6.5 and at temperatures up to 65 degrees C for at least 90 min. Human jejunal brush-border pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase is an exopeptidase which liberated [14C]Glu as the sole labeled product of PteGlu2[14C]Glue (where PteGlun represents pteroylpolyglutamate), failed to liberate a radioactive product from PteGlu2[14C]GluLeu2, and released all possible labeled PteGlun products during incubation with Pte[14C]GluGlu6 with the accumulation of Pte[14C]Glu. PteGlu2, PteGlu3, and PteGlu7 were substrates, each with Km = 0.6 microM, whereas PteGlu was a weak inhibitor of the hydrolysis of PteGlu3 with Ki = 20 microM. Components of the pteroyl moiety, Glu, and short chain Glun in alpha or gamma linkages were not inhibitory. The enzyme was activated by Zn2+ or Co2+. The properties of brush-border pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase are different from those described for the soluble intracellular pteroylpolyglutamate hydrolase in other species and in human mucosa, yet are consistent with previous data on the process of hydrolysis of PteGlun in the intact human intestine. 相似文献

1. Zn2+-dependent acid p-nitrophenylphosphatase from chicken liver was purified to homogeneity. 2. The purified enzyme moves as a single electrophoretic band at pH 8.3 in 7.5% acrylamide and was coincident with the enzyme activity. 3. Gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 gave an apparent molecular weight of 110,000 with two apparent identical subunits of 54,000-56,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis. 4. The maximum of enzyme activity was obtained in the presence of 3-5 mM ZnCl2 at pH 6-6.2, however, higher concentrations of metal are inhibitory. The enzyme hydrolyses p-nitrophenylphosphate, o-carboxyphenylphosphate and phenylphosphate, was insensitive to NaF and was inhibited by phosphate and ATP. The Km for p-nitrophenylphosphate was 0.28 x 10(-3)M at pH 6 in 50 mM sodium acetate/100 mM NaCl. 5. Phosphate is a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.5 x 10(-3)M) whereas ATP seems to be a non-competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.35 x 10(-3)M). The isoelectric point determined by isoelectric focusing on polyacrylamide gel is 7.5. 6. Cell fractionation studies indicate that the Zn2+-dependent acid p-nitrophenylphosphatase of chicken liver is a soluble enzyme form. 相似文献

A casein kinase was extracted from human erythrocyte cytosol and purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on DEAE and phosphocellulose, and affinity chromatography on ATP-agarose. This enzyme did not use histone as a substrate; its activity was not stimulated by cyclic nucleotides. The pH of optimal activity was 6.5. The enzyme had an absolute requirement of Mg2+ ions at an optimal concentration of 30 mM; activity was stimulated by Na+ and K+ at a maximal concentration of 0.125 M and inhibited by Ca2+. Casein was used as a substrate with a Km of 0.25 mg/ml; ATP was the preferential phosphoryl donor with a Km of 14.7 μM; GTP may be used with a lower yield and a Km of 26.3 μM. ADP was a competitive inhibitor of ATP with a Ki of 14 μM. 2–3 DPG was an allosteric inhibitor of ATP with an apparent Ki of 4.6 mM and a Hill coefficient of 3.8. Kinetic data indicate that the reaction follows a coordinated mechanism with ATP as the first substrate and subsequent formation of a ternary complex with the protein. SDS-PAGE of the purified enzyme showed two different peptide chains of molecular weight 35 000 and 25 000. 相似文献

Dissimilatory nitrate reductase was purified to homogeneity from anaerobic cultures of the denitrifying bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The following procedures were used in the rapid isolation of this unstable enzyme: induction by nitrate in semianaerobic cell suspension, heat-stimulated activation and solubilization from the membrane fraction, and purification by hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated by nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, sucrose density gradient sedimentation, and gel filtration chromatography. Subunit molecular weights were estimated by electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The active enzyme monomer, with a molecular weight of 176,000 to 260,000 (depending upon the method of determination), was composed of subunits with molecular weights of approximately 64,000 and 118,000. The monomer aggregated to form an inactive tetramer of about 800,000 molecular weight. Purified enzyme exhibited a broad pH optimum, between 6.5 and 7.5. Kinetic studies showed that the apparent Km was 0.30 mM for nitrate, and 2.2 to 2.9 microM for dithionite-reduced benzyl viologen. Azide was an effective inhibitor: the concentration required for half-maximal inhibition was 21 to 24 microM. Azide inhibition was competitive with nitrate (Ki = 2.0 microM) but uncompetitive with reduced benzyl viologen (Ki = 25 microM). Based upon spectral evidence, the purified molybdo-enzyme had no associated cytochromes but did contain nonhaem iron that responded to dithionite reduction and nitrate oxidation. The enzyme that was purified after being heat solubilized from membranes had properties essentially identical to those of the enzyme that was purified after deoxycholate solubilization. 相似文献

Candida delta-aminovalerate: alpha-ketoglutarate aminotransferase: purification and enzymologic properties 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
P A Der Garabedian 《Biochemistry》1986,25(19):5507-5512
A new enzyme that catalyzes the transamination of delta-aminovalerate with alpha-ketoglutarate was purified to homogeneity from adapted cells of Candida guilliermondii var. membranaefaciens. The relative molecular mass determined by gel filtration was estimated to be close to 118,000. The transaminase behaved as a dimer with two similar subunits in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme has a maximum activity in the pH range of 7.8-8.5 and at 40 degrees C. alpha-Ketoglutarate and to a lesser extent pyridoxal 5'-phosphate were effective protecting agents toward temperature raising. The enzyme exhibits absorption maximum at 330 and 410 nm. The enzyme catalyzes the transamination between omega-amino acids and alpha-ketoglutarate. delta-Aminovaleric acid is the best amino donor. The Km values for delta-aminovalerate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate determined from the Lineweaver-Burk plot were 4.9 mM, 3.6 mM, and 22.7 microM, respectively. The inhibitory effect of various amino acids analogues on the transamination reaction between delta-aminovalerate and alpha-ketoglutarate was studied, and Ki values were determined. 相似文献
