Probing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis
Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
متن کاملConstruction and investigation of co-operativity in hybrids of norleucine- and glutamate-active subunits of clostridial glutamate dehydrogenase.
In vitro subunit hybridisation is a usehl technique for exploring inter-subunit interactions in oligomeric enzymes [I]. In order to explore the basis of allosteric bebaviour in glutamate dehydrogenase from Clmtridiurn syrnbimurn, hybrid hexamers of mutants, VIZ. triple mutant, K89L/A163G/S380A [2] and C320S [3] have been constructed. The mutant C320S is hUy active and shows normal allosteric pr...
متن کاملProbing protein structure by limited proteolysis.
Limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of proteins. In a number of studies it has been demonstrated that the sites of limited proteolysis along the polypeptide chain of a protein are characterized by enhanced backbone flexibility, implying that proteolytic probes can pinpoint the sites of local unfolding in a protein chain. Limited proteolysis ...
متن کاملTopography of succinate dehydrogenase in the mitochondrial inner membrane. A study using limited proteolysis and immunoblotting.
The arrangement of the large (70,000-Mr) and small (30,000-Mr) subunits of succinate dehydrogenase in the mitochondrial inner membrane was investigated by immunoblot analysis of bovine heart mitochondria (right-side-out, outer membrane disrupted) or submitochondrial particles (inside-out) that had been subjected to surface-specific proteolysis. Both subunits were resistant to proteinase treatme...
متن کاملTemperature-sensitive glutamate dehydrogenase mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.
Mutants of Salmonella typhimurium defective in glutamate dehydrogenase activity were isolated in parent strains lacking glutamate synthase activity by localizcd mutagenesis or by a general mutagenesis combined with a cycloserine enrichment for glutamate auxotrophs. Two mutants with temperature-sensitive phenotypes had glutamate dehydrogenase activities that were more thermolabile than that of a...
