Sulfur shuffle: modulating enzymatic activity by thiol-disulfide interchange.
The facile modulation of biological processes is an important goal of biological chemists. Here, a general strategy is presented for controlling the catalytic activity of an enzyme. This strategy is demonstrated with ribonuclease A (RNase A), which catalyzes the cleavage of RNA. The side-chain amino group of Lys41 donates a hydrogen bond to a nonbridging oxygen in the transition state for RNA c...
متن کاملERp57 is a multifunctional thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase.
The thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase ERp57 is a soluble protein of the endoplasmic reticulum and the closest known homologue of protein disulfide isomerase. The protein interacts with the two lectin chaperones calnexin and calreticulin and thereby promotes the oxidative folding of newly synthesized glycoproteins. Here we have characterized several fundamental structural and functional properties ...
متن کاملZinc fingers and thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase activities of chaperone DnaJ.
Chaperone DnaJ is a homodimer with each subunit containing 10 cysteine residues and two Zn(II) ions, which have been identified to form two zinc fingers, C(144)DVC(147)Zn(II)C(197)NKC(200) (Zn1) and C(161)PTC(164)Zn(II)C(183)PHC(186) (Zn2), with C(265) and C(323) in reduced form. Guanidine hydrochloride at 6.4 M destroys only Zn1, which does not reform after refolding. p-Hydroxymercuriphenylsul...
متن کاملenzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defense with alzheimer disease1
the etiopathogenesis of alzheimer's disease (ad) is still unclear. however, long-term oxidative stress is believed to be one of the major contributing factors in progression of neuronal degeneration and decline of cognitive function in ad. in order to assess the presence of oxidative stress in ad, we examined the enzymatic activities of the erythrocyte cu-zn superoxide dismutase (cu-zn sod), g...
