Reversible dissociation and unfolding of aspartate aminotransferase from Escherichia coli: characterization of a monomeric intermediate.
The unfolding and dissociation of the dimeric enzyme aspartate aminotransferase (D) from Escherichia coli by guanidine hydrochloride have been investigated at equilibrium. The overall process was reversible, as judged from almost complete recovery of enzymic activity after dialysis of 0.7 mg of denatured protein/mL against buffer. Unfolding and dissociation were monitored by circular dichroism ...
متن کاملAspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from trichomonas vaginalis. Identity of aspartate aminotransferase and aromatic amino acid aminotransferase.
Aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from the anaerobic protozoon Trichomonas vaginalis was purified to homogeneity and characterized. It is a dimeric protein of overall Mr approx. 100000. Only a single isoenzyme was found in T. vaginalis. The overall molecular and catalytic properties have features in common with both the vertebrate cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isoenzymes. The purified ...
متن کاملChanges in the Level of Mitochondrial and Cytosolic Aspartate Aminotransferase Activities in Aluminium Intoxified Rat
The activity of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in human serum has been widely determined as a diagnostic aid in liver disease. In this study, the effect of aluminium on AST isoenzymes in relation to aluminium intoxified patients has been investigated. Using gel filtration chromatography technique with Sephacryl S-300, mitochondrial aminotransferase (m-AST) and cytosolic aminotransferase (c-AS...
متن کاملDetection and assay of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase in serum.
Aspartate aminotransfcrase (L-aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2. 6.1.1) comprises two isoen&ymcs. One is anionic, is associated with the soluble fraction of the cell and ordinarily forms the bulk of the scrum activity. The other is cationic, and is associated with the mitochondria (1—7). Each may in turn be subdivisible (8—10), but it is unlikely that this will influence the pres...
متن کاملKinetic studies of chicken and turkey liver mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase.
The kinetic behaviour of chicken liver and turkey liver aspartate aminotransferases (L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.1) was studied. Steady-state data were obtained from a wide range of concentrations of substrates and product L-glutamate. The data were fitted by rational functions of degree 1:1, 1:2 and 2:2 with respect to substrates and 0:1, 1:1, 0:2 and 1:2 with regard ...
