Activation of rat liver microsomal glutathione transferase by limited proteolysis.
The activity of rat liver microsomal glutathione transferase is increased by limited tryptic proteolysis; the membrane-bound and purified forms of the enzyme are activated about 5- and 10-fold respectively. The cleavage sites that correlate with this activation were determined by amino acid sequence analysis to be located after Lys-4 and Lys-41. Differences in the relative extent of cleavage at...
متن کاملProbing 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 کاملPurification and properties of cytochrome oxidase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Yaoi and Tamiya (1) found that Escherichia coli and Shigella dysenteriae, grown aerobically, exhibited an absorption band which differed from those of previously described cytochromes in that it lay within the red region of the spectrum. Keilin (2) attributed this band to a cytochrome component, designated a2. Warburg et al. (3, 4), Ncgelein and Gerischcr (5), Tamiya and Yamagutchi (6), and Fuj...
متن کاملMitochondrial regulation of caspase activation by cytochrome oxidase and tetramethylphenylenediamine via cytosolic cytochrome c redox state.
Cytochrome c release from mitochondria induces caspase activation in cytosols; however, it is unclear whether the redox state of cytosolic cytochrome c can regulate caspase activation. By using cytosol isolated from mammalian cells, we find that oxidation of cytochrome c by added cytochrome oxidase stimulates caspase activation, whereas reduction of cytochrome c by added tetramethylphenylenedia...
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 ...
