Colorimetric determination of pyrophosphate anion and its application to adenylation enzyme assay.
A colorimetric pyrophosphate assay based on the formation and reduction of the 18-molybdopyrophosphate ([(P2O7)Mo18O54](4-)) anion in an acetonitrile-water mixed solvent was modified and improved. The [(P2O7)Mo18O54](4-) anion is precipitated from the acetonitrile-water solution containing MoO4(2-) and HCl, and is re-dissolved in neat acetonitrile or propylene carbonate. This separation process...
متن کاملCharacterization of ATP Binding in γ-Glutamylcysteine Synthetase
Computational and spectroscopic techniques have been combined to probe local protein structure. Experimental resonance Raman spectra were obtained for small fragments of the 29 amino acid glucose regulating protein glucagon. The Raman spectra for these fragments were also simulated computationally and were used to aid in the interpretation of the experimental spectra. Glucagon was then probed w...
متن کاملCharacterization of CmaA, an adenylation-thiolation didomain enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of coronatine.
Several pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae produce the phytotoxin coronatine (COR), which contains an unusual amino acid, the 1-amino-2-ethylcyclopropane carboxylic acid called coronamic acid (CMA), which is covalently linked to a polyketide-derived carboxylic acid, coronafacic acid, by an amide bond. The region of the COR biosynthetic gene cluster proposed to be responsible for CMA biosynthesis...
متن کاملProbing adenylation: using a fluorescently labelled ATP probe to directly label and immunoprecipitate VopS substrates.
The bacterial effector VopS from Vibrio parahaemolyticus modifies host Rho GTPases to prevent downstream signalling, which leads to cell rounding and eventually apoptosis. While previous studies have used [α-(32)P] ATP for studying this enzyme, we sought to develop a non-radioactive chemical probe of VopS function. To guide these studies, the kinetic parameters were determined for a variety of ...
متن کاملQuark - Antiquark Exchange in γ ∗ γ ∗ Scattering
We calculate the high energy behavior of quark-antiquark exchange in γ * γ * elastic scattering by summing, to all orders, the leading double logarithmic contributions of the QCD ladder diagrams. Motivation comes from the LEP data for σ γ * γ * tot which indicate the need for secondary reggeon exchange. We show that, for large photon virtualities, this exchange is calculable in pQCD. This appli...
