Characterization of the Taxol binding site on the microtubule. Identification of Arg(282) in beta-tubulin as the site of photoincorporation of a 7-benzophenone analogue of Taxol.
Photoaffinity labeling methods have allowed a definition of the sites of interaction between Taxol and its cellular target, the microtubule, specifically beta-tubulin. Our previous studies have indicated that [(3)H]3'-(p-azidobenzamido)Taxol photolabels the N-terminal 31 amino acids of beta-tubulin (Rao, S., Krauss, N. E., Heerding, J. M., Swindell, C. S., Ringel, I., Orr, G. A., and Horwitz, S...
متن کاملThe N-Terminal Amino Acids of Human Plasma Proteins
A study has been made of the N-terminal amino acid pattern of human plasma proteins under normal and pathological conditions. The normal pattern shows the following N-terminal amino acids in order of diminishing quantities: aspartic acid, glutamic acid, valine, alanine, tyrosine, leucines, and glycine. In healthy individuals this pattern is qualitatively stable with moderate quantitative differ...
متن کاملProcessing of N-terminal unnatural amino acids in recombinant human interferon-beta in Escherichia coli.
Incorporation of unnatural amino acids into recombinant proteins represents a powerful tool for protein engineering and protein therapeutic development. While the processing of the N-terminal methionine (Met) residues in proteins is well studied, the processing of unnatural amino acids used for replacing the N-terminal Met remains largely unknown. Here we report the effects of the penultimate r...
متن کاملN- and C-terminal amino acids of saliva parotin A.
During the course of an investigation into the biological activities and chemical properties of saliva parotin A it became necessary to study the chemical structure of this protein. Previous workers have reported that the molecular weight of saliva parotin A prepared from human saliva is 15,900 (Ito, Y. 1960). Proline, threonine, aspartic acid, and gluta mic acid are contained in saliva parotin...
متن کاملTerminal amino acids of rhodopsin.
Rhodopsin, the photosensitive pigment of rod vision, is a chromoprotein composed in equimolar parts of the protein opsin and the carotenoid retinene (1). Its absorption spectrum and molar extinction are known (2) and the kinetics of bleaching by light and of regeneration have been investigated (3). An upper limit of 40,000 has been set for its molecular weight (cattle) (1). Since rhodopsin is i...
