Summary A trypsin-like proteinase was isolated from Streptomyces rimosus culture filtrates obtained from an oxytetracycline production process. The isolation procedure includes ultrafiltration, chromatography on CM-Sephadex, AH-Sepharose and CM-cellulose and gives a homogeneous protein with 19% yield. The enzyme is an anionic trypsin (Mr 28 000, pI 4.5), is stable from pH 4.5 to 9 and up to 40°C, and contains three disulphide bridges, three histidines and three methionines per molecule. At its pH optimum (pH 8.4–8.8) it splits peptide, ester and arylamide bonds of arginine in the endo-position and, to a smaller extent, in the exo-position. Like other streptomycete trypsins, it is a more efficient catalyst than bovine trypsin and has a relative preference for peptide-arylamides, N-benzyloxycarbonyl-l-norleucyl-l-prolyl-l-arginine-p-nitroanilide being by far its best substrate. 相似文献

Summary A leucine aminopeptidase was purified to homogeneity fromStreptomyces rimosus culture filtrates, which are waste broth of oxytetracycline bioproduction process. Purification procedure includes ultrafiltration
and chromatography on CM-Sephadex, AH-Sepharose and FPLC Mono S column.
The enzyme is a monomer with molecular weight of 27,500 Daltons and pI of 7.3, stable in broad pH range and up to 70°C. It
is a metallo enzyme dependent on Ca2+ ions for its full activity. By its specificity it is a true aminopeptidase active on amino acid amide, arylamide, peptide
and ester bonds. The hydrolysing activity shows preference for leucine at the N-terminal position of substrates, also acts
on aromatic acids and methionine, but does not release glycine, proline, acidic amino acids orD-amino acid residues. 相似文献

Background
Architectural proteins have important roles in compacting and organising chromosomal DNA. There are two potential histone counterpart peptide sequences (Alba1 and Alba2) in the Aeropyrum pernix genome (APE1832.1 and APE1823).Methodology/Principal Findings
These two peptides were expressed and their interactions with various DNAs were studied using a combination of various experimental techniques: surface plasmon resonance, UV spectrophotometry, circular dichroism–spectropolarimetry, gel-shift assays, and isothermal titration calorimetry.Conclusions/Significance
Our data indicate that there are significant differences in the properties of the Alba1 and Alba2 proteins. Both of these Alba proteins can thermally stabilise DNA polynucleotides, as seen from UV melting curves. Alba2 and equimolar mixtures of Alba1/Alba2 have greater effects on the thermal stability of poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT). Surface plasmon resonance sensorgrams for binding of Alba1, Alba2, and equimolar mixtures of Alba1/Alba2 to DNA oligonucleotides show different binding patterns. Circular dichroism indicates that Alba2 has a less-ordered secondary structure than Alba1. The secondary structures of the Alba proteins are not significantly influenced by DNA binding, even at high temperatures. Based on these data, we conclude that Alba1, Alba2, and equimolar mixtures of Alba1/Alba2 show different properties in their binding to various DNAs. 相似文献5.
The solution-state structure of 2′-O-(2-methoxyethly) substituted dodecamer r(*CG*CGAA*U*U*CG*C)d(G), 2′-MOE RNA, with all cytosines and uracils methylated at the C5-position has been determined by NMR spectroscopy. The chemical modifications were used to improve the oligonucleotide's drug-like properties. The 2′-MOE group drives pseudorotational equilibrium of the ribofuranose moiety to the N-type conformation and supposedly results in structural preorganization leading to high affinity of a modified oligonucleotide towards its complementary biological target, improved pharmacokinetic and toxicological properties. The high melting temperature of the antiparallel duplex structure adopted by 2′-MOE RNA was explained through the formation of a stable A-form RNA consistent with effective base-pairing and stacking interactions. The comparison of the solution-state structure with the crystal structure of a non-methylated analogue shows an increase in the stacking at the base pair steps for the C5-methylated 2′-MOE RNA duplex. The MOE substituents adopt a well-defined structure in the minor groove with the predominant gauche conformations around the ethylene bond. 相似文献

The syntheses, the anticholinesterase activities and structure-activity relationships of homodimeric (3a-c) and heterodimeric (6a-c) alkylene linked bis-galanthamine are reported. Compounds 6b-c were found to be more potent than galanthamine and tacrine in inhibiting AChE. 相似文献

Mur ligases play an essential role in the intracellular biosynthesis of bacterial peptidoglycan, the main component of the bacterial cell wall, and represent attractive targets for the design of novel antibacterials. UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine:D-glutamate ligase (MurD) catalyses the addition of D-glutamic acid to the cytoplasmic intermediate UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (UMA) and is the second in the series of Mur ligases. MurD ligase is highly stereospecific for its substrate, D-glutamic acid (D-Glu). Here, we report the high resolution crystal structures of MurD in complexes with two novel inhibitors designed to mimic the transition state of the reaction, which contain either the D-Glu or the L-Glu moiety. The binding modes of N-sulfonyl-D-Glu and N-sulfonyl-L-Glu derivatives were also characterised kinetically. The results of this study represent an excellent starting point for further development of novel inhibitors of this enzyme. 相似文献

Clinical data suggest that selenium (Se) supplementation decreases disease predisposition and severity and accelerates recovery in a variety of pathologies. Pre-supplementation Se levels and sex represent important determinants of these Se-dependent health effects. Accordingly, we previously reported on sexually dimorphic expression patterns of Se-dependent glutathione peroxidase 1, type I deiodinase, and selenoprotein P in young mice. In the present study we investigated whether these differences vary with age. The strong sexual dimorphic expression of hepatic type I deiodinase that was observed in young mice vanished both at the mRNA and enzyme activity level by 1 year of age. In contrast, the strong sex-specific differences in renal type I deiodinase mRNA expression were sustained with age. Accordingly, deiodinase enzymatic activities differed in male and female kidneys, largely independent of age [average of 6.8 vs. 15.7 pmol/(min mg) in males vs. females]. In parallel, hepatic Se concentrations and glutathione peroxidase activities increased in female mice compared to male littermates, establishing a new sexual dimorphism in liver. Thus, age represents another important modifier of the dynamic sex- and tissue-specific selenoprotein expression patterns. These data highlight again the unique physiological regulatory mechanisms that have evolved to control Se metabolism according to the actual needs of the organism. 相似文献

We studied the fitness effects of animal personality by measuring activity and its relation to survival in the marine isopod Idotea balthica. We asked (1) whether activity could be considered to be a personality trait, (2) whether this trait is connected to survival, and (3) whether personality and survival exhibit sex differences. We found that activity fulfilled the criteria of personality as individuals had consistent between‐individual differences over time and across situations. Consistent individual differences in activity were associated with fitness as the survival probability of active individuals was lower, but this did not depend on sex. Our results demonstrate that personality exists in I. balthica and support recent suggestions that the association between personality and life‐history traits is a central component in mediating animal personality. 相似文献
