Affinity purification of the novel cysteine proteinase papaya proteinase IV, and papain from papaya latex.
A procedure is described for the purification of a previously undetected cysteine proteinase, which we have called papaya proteinase IV, from spray-dried latex of the papaya (Carica papaya) plant. The purification involves affinity chromatography on Gly-Phe-aminoacetonitrile linked to CH-Sepharose 4B, with elution by 2-hydroxyethyl disulphide at pH 4.5. The product thus obtained is a mixture of...
متن کاملCharacterization of the active site of human multicatalytic proteinase.
The activity of multicatalytic proteinase against synthetic substrates and the kinetics of its inhibition by a range of class-specific inhibitors have been investigated. The enzyme was found to have a broader pH activity profile than previously noted, being active against succinyl-Ala-Ala-Phe-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin optimally at pH 4.5 and against benzyloxycarbonyl-Gly-Gly-Arg-7-amino-4-methyl...
متن کاملA herpesvirus maturational proteinase, assemblin: identification of its gene, putative active site domain, and cleavage site.
A herpesvirus proteinase activity has been identified and partially characterized by using the cloned enzyme and substrate genes in transient transfection assays. Evidence is presented that the proteinase gene of cytomegalovirus strain Colburn encodes a 590-amino acid protein whose N-terminal 249 residues contain the proteolytic activity and two domains that are highly conserved in the homologo...
متن کاملDemonstration of the presence of a histidine residue at the active site of streptococcal proteinase.
Experiments are described which have led to the selective alkylation of a histidine residue in streptococcal proteinase without concomitant reaction with the single essential sulfhydry1 group. The reduced, active form of the enzyme was first treated with sodium tetrathionate to protect the sulfhydry1 group and to introduce a negative charge near the active center. The resulting inactive derivat...
متن کاملHuman cytomegalovirus proteinase: candidate glutamic acid identified as third member of putative active-site triad.
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) proteinase is synthesized as a 709-amino-acid precursor that undergoes at least three autoproteolytic cleavages. The mature proteinase, called assemblin, is one of the products of autoproteolysis and is composed of the first 256 amino acids of the precursor. HCMV assemblin and its homologs in other herpes group viruses contain five highly conserved domains (CD1 ...
