Amino acid sequence of tyrosinase from Neurospora crassa.
The amino-acid sequence of tyrosinase from Neurospora crassa (monophenol,dihydroxyphenylalanine:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.14.18.1) is reported. This copper-containing oxidase consists of a single polypeptide chain of 407 amino acids. The primary structure was determined by automated and manual sequence analysis on fragments produced by cleavage with cyanogen bromide and on peptides obtained b...
متن کاملComparison of amino acid sequence and thermostability of tyrosinase from three wild type strains of Neurospora crassa.
The thermostability of tyrosinase from three wild type strains of Neurospora crassa has been investigated. For this purpose a sequence comparison of two thermostable and one thermolabile tyrosinase isoenzyme was carried out. It revealed that at position 201 the thermostable enzyme forms share an aspartate residue in contrast to an asparagine residue in the thermolabile form. In addition, one of...
متن کاملPrimary structure of tyrosinase from Neurospora crassa. I. Purification and amino acid sequence of the cyanogen bromide fragments.
Cyanogen bromide (CB) cleavage of Neurospora tyrosinase resulted in four major fragments, CB1 (222 residues), CB2 (82 residues), CB3 (68 residues), and CB4 (35 residues), and one minor overlap peptide CB2-4 (117 residues) due to incomplete cleavage of a methionylthreonyl bond. The sum of the amino acid residues of the four major fragments matches the total number of amino acid residues of the n...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of the tyrosinase gene from Neurospora crassa.
A precursor form of Neurospora crassa tyrosinase has been identified by Western transfer from crude protein extracts and by immunoprecipitation of in vitro translated tyrosinase mRNA. The molecular weight of protyrosinase (75,000) exceeds that of mature tyrosinase (46,000) by about 50%. In order to deduce the primary structure and the nature of the extension, the tyrosinase gene was cloned. Pol...
متن کاملDevelopmental regulation of amino acid transport in Neurospora crassa.
Conidia of Neurospora crassa exhibit an ability to transport various amino acids against a concentration gradient. The conidial transport system has previously been characterized in terms of kinetics, competitions, and genetic control. This study describes the development of a new and highly active transport capability which is elaborated during the early stages of development but prior to evid...
