Acrylamide gel electrophoresis of crude cellular extracts of Bacillus subtilis revealed the presence of two acetyl esterases. Esterase A, the slower migrating enzyme, was found to be present in both vegetative and sporulating cells, whereas esterase B activity was more abundant after exponential growth ceased. Both esterases were present in the supernatant fraction of lysed spheroplasts and in a disrupted spore preparation. Of four pleiotropic asporogenous mutants tested, three exhibited decreased esterase B activity. Esterases A and B were partially purified by differential precipitation and co-chromatographed on diethylaminoethyl (DEAE)-cellulose (pH 7.5) and DEAE-Sephadex (pH 8.5). By employing gel filtration chromatography, the two esterases were separated, and molecular weights of 160,000 and 51,000 were estimated for esterases A and B, respectively. Esterase A was further purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by differential heating and preparative starch block electrophoresis. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis of purified esterase A yielded a single protein band with a molecular weight of 31,000. The pI values of esterases A and B were determined to be 6.4 and 5.4, respectively. 相似文献

Bacillus subtilis NRRL 365 produced high extracellular carboxyl esterase activity in submerged culture media containing wheat bran, corn steep liquor, and salts. Supplementation of this medium with glucose reduced esterase activity to 37% of that in the unsupplemented control. Esterase activity was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion-exchange chromatography with sodium chloride gradient elution, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The resultant purified components, esterases I and II, manifested single bands following silver staining of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels and had final specific activities of 80 and 520 U/mg, respectively. Molecular weights for components I and II were 36,000 and 105,000 to 110,000, respectively. Esterases I and II both had a pH optimum of 8.0, with relative activities of 10 and 85%, respectively, at pH 9.0. Kms with p-nitrophenylacetate were 0.91 mM for esterase I and 0.67 mM for esterase II. In general, patterns of enzyme inhibition were similar for both components. Differences were observed in the relative activities of esterases I and II towards p-nitrophenyl esters of acetate, propionate, and butyrate; Activity ratios for components I and II were 100:94:48 and 100:36:23, respectively. The purified components did not hydrolyze long-chain triglycerides and did not manifest proteolytic activity. 相似文献

Esterase D1 and esterase D2, two common esterase D (EC 3.1.1.1) isozymes, were isolated and purified from human erythrocytes. Their substrate specificity, pH profile and Km values were essentially identical. Their molecular mass was the same at 34 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide electrophoresis and at 27 kDa on Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. Antisera to each of the esterase D1 and esterase D2 isozymes were successfully raised in chickens; each antiserum reacted identically with both isozymes. These findings indicate that the isozymes are close to each other in structure. The fact that the molecular mass of the esterase D1 and esterase D2 isozymes computed on sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide electrophoresis was close to that obtained on Sephadex G-100 gel filtration in non-dissociating buffer indicates that the isozymes are not dimers bound by disulfide bonds or a noncovalent force. These facts together indicate that the esterase D isozymes are monomers, contrary to the prevailing view that they are dimers. 相似文献

Three fucoidanases were purified from Vibrio sp. N-5 by ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatography with DEAE-Toyopearl 650 M, Sephacryl S-300 HR, and chromatofocusing. The purified enzymes gave a single band on disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of the enzymes, E-1, E-2, and E-3 were 39,500, 68,000, and 68,000, respectively, by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 158,000, 68,500, and 67,500 by gel filtration. The enzymes hydrolyzed gagome-fucoidan to give small oligosaccharides containing sulfate as main product. 相似文献

A single protein band of molecular weight 110 000 has been obtained after sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of purified 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (1,25-(OH)2D-3) receptor from crude nuclear extracts of chick intestinal mucosa, prepared in the presence of the protease inhibitors phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and ?-aminocaproic acid. The nuclear extract was subjected to a six-step purification scheme, involving polymin P and ammonium sulfate fractionation, DNA-cellulose affinity chromatography, Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration, blue dextran-Sepharose and a final DNA-cellulose chromatographic step. The receptor was obtained in about 1% yield and was purified approx. 3700-fold from the nuclear extract, as assessed by specific activity. Single peaks were observed with 3H-1,25-(OH)2D-3-labeled crude nuclear extracts on Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration () and sucrose density gradient centrifugation (3.5 S). Although the identity of the Mr 110 000 protein will remain inconclusive until methods for further characterization are available, it may represent evidence for a higher molecular weight form of the 1,25-(OH)2D-3 receptor than that observed previously. 相似文献

Thermostable amylolytic enzymes are currently being investigated to improve industrial processes of starch degradation. A thermostable extracellular glucoamylase (exo-1, 4-alpha-D-glucanohydrolase, E.C.3.2.1.3) from the culture supernatant of a thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum was purified to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) homogeneity by using ammonium sulfate fraction, DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography, and Phenyl-Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography. SDS-PAGE of the purified enzyme showed a single protein band of molecular weight 64 kDa. The glucoamylase exhibited optimum catalytic activity at pH 4.0 and 65 degrees C. It was thermostable at 50 degrees C and 60 degrees C, and retained 50% activity after 60 min at 65 degrees C. The half-life of the enzyme at 70 degrees C was 20 min. N-terminal amino acid sequencing (15 residues) was AVDSYIERETPIAWN. Different metal ions showed different effects on the glucoamylase activity. Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, and K+ enhanced the enzyme activity, whereas Fe2+, Ag+, and Hg2+ cause obvious inhibition. These properties make it applicable to other biotechnological purposes. 相似文献

Pyruvate kinase from the tail muscle and claw muscle of a lobster (H. vulgaris) has been purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The overall procedure results in a 200-fold purification with a yield of 70%. The molecular weights of the enzymes were found to be 254 000 ± 10% (tail muscle) and 266 000 ± 10% (claw muscle). Moreover both enzymes have a tetrameric structure with a molecular mass of 65 000 ± 10% for the subunit. Kinetic properties of the enzymes are such that a regulation of anaerobic glycolysis through allosteric modulation of pyruvate kinase activity appears to be non-functional for the two tissues investigated. 相似文献

Distinctive electrophoretic and isoelectric focusing patterns of esterases from Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Esterases of 53 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica sensu stricto, including five previously defined biotypes, and 30 strains of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis were analysed by horizontal polyacrylamide-agarose gel electrophoresis and by isoelectrofocusing in thin-layer polyacrylamide gel. Esterase bands were defined by their range of activity towards several synthetic substrates, their resistance to heat and to di-isopropyl fluorophosphate. The two species were characterized by distinct electrophoretic patterns of their esterases. The apparent molecular weights of the heat-resistant esterase of Y. enterocolitica and of the major heat-resistant esterase of Y. pseudotuberculosis, as determined by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis, were estimated to be 52 000 and 250 000, respectively. On the basis of electrophoretic mobilities and isoelectric points of esterases produced by strains of Y. enterocolitica, five principal zymotypes were observed: two for strains of biotype 1, two for strains of biotypes 2 and 3, respectively, and only one for strains of both biotypes 4 and 5. The zymotypes of strains of biotypes 2, 3, 4 and 5 appeared to be more closely related to one another than to zymotypes of strains of biotype 1. Variations in number or mobility of bands observed within each biotype of Y. enterocolitica and within some serotypes of Y. pseudotuberculosis could represent an additional marker for epidemiological analysis. 相似文献

A non-kallikrein arginine esterase (esterase I) has been purified from dog urine and characterized. The enzyme was purified by a three-step procedure, including ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, affinity chromatography on p-aminobenzamidine-Sepharose, and final gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA-54. The purified preparation gave three protein bands on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, all of which had esterolytic activity. The enzyme has a specific activity of 601 esterase units/mg protein. It has negligible kininogenase activity. Esterase I gave two closely migrating protein bands on reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with molecular weights of 34,000 and 33,300. Esterase I is a glycoprotein with a pH optimum of 9.5 and a pI of 4.62. The enzyme is strongly inhibited by a host of inhibitors including aprotinin, leupeptin, antipain, soybean trypsin inhibitor, lima bean trypsin inhibitor, and DPhe-Phe-Arg-chloromethyl ketone (I50 in the 10(-9)-10(-8) M range). However, p-aminobenzamidine, N alpha-p-tosyl-lysyl chloromethyl ketone and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride were weak inhibitors, with I50 values in the 10(-5)-10(-7) M range. The enzyme preferentially hydrolyzes Pro-Arg bonds. Among fluorogenic substrates used in this study, butyloxycarbonyl-Val-Pro-Arg-methylcoumarinamide (alpha-thrombin substrate) was found to be the best, with a Km of 1.7 microM and a kcat/Km of 6.3 s.microM-1. However, esterase I does not convert fibrinogen to fibrin nor activate plasminogen to plasmin. Esterase I is immunologically distinct from dog urinary kallikrein, having no cross-reactivity with antibodies against dog kallikrein. 相似文献

Two molecular forms of glutamine synthetase localized in the cytoplasm and in chloroplasts, respectively, were detected in pumpkin leaves. Ammonium infiltrated into intact pumpkin leaves activated the synthesis of both enzyme forms. Glutamine synthetase from chloroplasts and the cytoplasmic enzyme were purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose DE-32, selective adsorption on potassium phosphate gel and preparative electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The molecular weights of both forms of glutamine synthetase as determined by gel-filtration through Sephacryl S-200 are equal to 370,000 and 480,000, respectively. During SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the enzymes from both sources produced polypeptide chains with respective molecular weights of 50,000 and 58,000. The amino acid composition of the enzymes differed considerably. The content of alpha-helix moities in the chloroplast and cytoplasmic enzyme made up to 17% and 34%, respectively. In the presence of Mg+ the pH optima for the enzymes were equal to 7.75 and 7.25, respectively, and the Km values for L-glutamate were 46 and 13 mM, respectively. It may be concluded that the enzyme forms under study are isoenzymes. 相似文献

D-3-Aminoisobutyrate-pyruvate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.40) was purified 1900-fold from rat liver extract. The purified enzyme showed a molecular mass of 180 kDa by gel-permeation HPLC analysis using a TSK gel G3000SW column. Reductive polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate resulted in identification of a single band of approx. 50 kDa, indicating that the native enzyme is probably a tetrametric protein. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 1.14 mumol/min per mg protein. D-3-Aminoisobutyrate and beta-alanine were good amino donors. The Km value for L-3-aminoisobutyrate was 100-times larger than that for the D-isomer. The apparent Km values for D-3-aminoisobutyrate and beta-alanine were 35 and 282 microM, respectively. Pyruvate, glyoxylate, oxalacetate, 2-oxo-n-valerate, and 2-oxo-n-butyrate were good amino acceptors. The apparent Km values for pyruvate and glyoxylate were 32 and 44 microM, respectively. 相似文献

The M1 isozyme of pyruvate kinase has been purified from human psoas muscle in a seven-step procedure. Fractionation by ammonium sulfate precipitation, heat treatment, acetone precipitation, diethylaminoethyl cellulose batchwise treatment followed by chromatography on carboxymethyl cellulose and Sephadex G-200 gave a product with a specific activity of 383 U/mg representing a 294-fold purification with a yield of 11%. The product formed orthorhombic crystals and was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with and without sodium dodecyl sulfate, sedimentation velocity, sedimentation equilibrium, and immunodiffusion. The purified enzyme has a molecular weight of 240700 and has a sedimentation coefficient (S20,W) of 10.04S. It contains four subunits with identical molecular weights of 61000. No free N-terminal amino acids could be detected. Antibody prepared against the purified human M1 isozyme does not cross-react by immunodiffusion or enzyme inactivation with the human erythrocyte isozyme and in the reverse experiment antibody prepared against human erythrocyte pyruvate kinase does not cross-react with the purified M1 isozyme. The amino acid composition of the M1 isozyme is presented. 相似文献

Two DFP-sensitive alkaline proteinases with strong esterase activity toward Ac-(Ala)3-OMe, designated as alkaline serine proteinases D and E, were purified pronase, a protease mixture from St. griseus K-1. Each was shown to be homogeneous by acrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of these enzymes were estimated to be about 27,000 be gel filtration. Studies on their actions on acyl-tl-amino acid methyl or ethyl esters indicated that proteinases D and E both exhibited a broad substrate specificity and hydrolyzed the ester bonds of esters containing Trp, Tyr, Phe, Leu, and Ala. The esterase activities of both enzymes toward Ac-(Ala)3-OMe were the highest among proteinases so far isolated from various sources. Proteinases D and E also lacked cystine residues in their molecules, being entirely different from alkaline serine proteinases A, B, and C in pronase. Some differences were , however, observed between them as regards pH stability, behavior on CM-cellulose, mobility on polyacrylamide electrophoresis, and amidase activity toward Suc-(Ala)3-pNA. 相似文献

A simple procedure is described for the purification in high yields of protein synthesis initiation factors IF1, IF2, and IF3 from Escherichia coli strain MRE 600. IF2 was separated from IF1 and IF3 by ammonium sulfate fractionation and was purified by column chromatography on phosphocellulose and diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) Sephadex. IF1 and IF3 were separated by phosphocellulose column chromatography. IF1 was purified by molecular sieve chromatography, and IF3 by phosphocellulose column chromatography in urea buffer. Each factor was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate or urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and was greater than 98% pure. Only one form of IF1 and IF3 was found, with molecular weights of 8,500 and 22,500, respectively. Two forms of IF2 were isolated: IF2a with a molecular weight of 118,000 and IF2b with a molecular weight of 90,000. The amino acid composition of each factor was determined, and their stimulation in a variety of assays for initiation of protein synthesis is reported. 相似文献

Hyaluronidase and esterase activities of the venom of the poisonous brown recluse spider 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Venom of Loxosceles reclusa free from impurities was expressed from venom glands collected by microdissection. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the venom at pH 8.3 demonstrated 7 or 8 major plus 3 or 4 minor components. Upon electrophoresis at pH 4.9 two major components plus 3 or 4 minor components were noted. Monophoretic hyaluronidase prepared by Sephadex gel filtration and electrophoresis at pH 8.3 exhibited optimum activity from pH 5.0 to 6.6. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of purified hyaluronidase revealed two components with estimated molecular weights of 33,000 and 63,000. The purified hyaluronidase exhibited activity against chondroitin sulfate, types A, B, and C at approximately 20–30% of that upon hyaluronic acid. The enzyme was inhibited 10–20% by the heavy metal ions, Fe+3 and Cu+2. Rabbit antivenom inhibited the spreading effect of whole venom in vivo and completely inhibited hyaluronidase in vitro.Incorporation of [14C]leucine into the spider venom led to the separation of hyaluronidase from the dermonecrotic activity of the venom.The venom demonstrated activity against carbobenzoxy-l-tyrosine-p-nitrophenyl ester and β-naphthylacetate which was inhibited approximately 65% by 2.5 × 10?3m levels of EDTA and EGTA but not by 2.5 × 10?4mo-phenanthroline. The esterase activity resisted concentrations of p-chloromercuribenzoate which totally inactivated papain. The venom appeared devoid of collagenase, dipeptidase, acetylcholinesterase, phosphodiesterase, ribonuclease A, and deoxyribonuclease. 相似文献

Purification and properties of two 2-oxoacid:ferredoxin oxidoreductases from Halobacterium halobium 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase and 2-oxoglutarate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase were obtained from cell-free extracts of Halobacterium halobium as homogeneous proteins after ammonium sulfate precipitation, salting-out chromatography with ammonium sulfate on unsubstituted agarose, gel filtration and chromatography on hydroxyapatite. The respective molecular weights are 256000 and 248000. Both enzymes consist of two sets of non-identical subunits of Mr 86000 and 42000 in the case of the pyruvate-degrading enzyme and of 88000 and 36000 in the case of the 20 -oxogluatarate-degrading enzyme. Analyses indicate that an intact enzyme molecule contains two [4 Fe-4S]2 + (2 + , 1+) clusters and two molecules of thiamin diphosphate. Flavin nucleotides, lipoic acid and pantetheine are absent. Thus the enzymes are very similar to the 2-oxoacid:ferredoxin oxidoreductases from fermentative and photosynthetic anaerobes described previously, but are clearly different from the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes which commonly occur in anaerobic organisms. 相似文献

A partially purified bacteriocin produced by Propionibacterium thoenii designated propionicin PLG-1 was found to be active against closely related species and exhibited a broad spectrum of activity against other microorganisms. Propionicin PLG-1 was found to be heat labile, sensitive to several proteolytic enzymes, and stable at pH 3 to 9. Propionicin PLG-1 was isolated from solid medium, partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, and purified further by gel filtration. Gel filtration experiments revealed that bacteriocin PLG-1 was present as two different protein aggregates with apparent molecular weights of more than 150,000 and approximately 10,000. Resolution of these protein aggregates by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of a protein common to both with an apparent molecular weight of 10,000. 相似文献

The nicosulfuron-degrading enzymes from Bacillus subtilis strain YB1 were purified and their genes were cloned. The proteins of bacterial culture filtrate were precipitated with ammonium sulfate or acetone. The extracellular proteins concentrated by acetone were purified from DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography. The four protein peaks eluted from DEAE-column were separated and purified by native PAGE. Three components (P1-1, P3-2, P4-3) had nicosulfuron-degrading activity, and component P4-3 degradated 57.5% of this compound. The molecular weights of the components were 33.5, 54.8 and 37.0 kDa, respectively. The amino acid sequences of nicosulfuron-degrading enzymes from B. subtilis YB1 were determined by MALDI-TOF-MS, indicating these enzymes as manganese ABC transporter, vegetative catalase 1 and acetoin dehydrogenase E1, respectively. Using PCR amplification, genes 918, 1428, 1026 bp in size were detected for the enzymes studied. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of the two molecular forms of membrane acid protease from Aspergillus oryzae. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two forms (M1 and M2) of the membrane-bound acid protease of Aspergillus oryzae have been purified by extraction with Triton X-100, washing with cold acetone, and repeated gel filtration on Bio-Gel A-15 m in the presence and absence of Triton X-100. The purified membrane enzymes, M1 and M2, moved as a single band in acrylamide gel electrophoresis and had apparent molecular weights of 150 000 and 60 000, respectively, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate/acrylamide gel electrophoresis. These two membrane enzymes activated bovine pancreatic trypsinogen and had the same pH optima in the acid pH range. They immunologically cross-reacted with each other and with an extracellular acid protease from A. oryzae, and contained carbohydrate, ranging from 52.5 to 80.5% and comprising three hexoses, glucose, galactose, and mannose. While these catalytic, chemical and immunological properties are similar to those of the extracellular acid protease from A. oryzae, both membrane enzyme differed in their hydrophobic properties from external enzymes. Thus they are activated by the detergent Triton X-100 and some polar lipids. 相似文献
