Differential binding of retinol analogs to two homologous cellular retinol-binding proteins.
A comparative study of the interactions of rat cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) and cellular retinol-binding protein II (CRBP II) with a number of synthetic phenyl-substituted analogs of all-trans-retinol was performed using fluorescence and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. These studies indicate that CRBP II is more sensitive to modifications of the ring moiety than CRBP. Removal of...
متن کاملRetinol and retinol-binding protein: gut integrity and circulating immunoglobulins.
Vitamin A (retinol) is required to maintain immunity and epithelial turnover and is a key micronutrient needed for combating infection. Vitamin A actions on the immune system are diverse and cannot be accounted for by a single effect or mechanism. The actions of retinol in maintaining gut integrity in humans and immunoglobulin levels in mice was investigated. For 30 children, performance on the...
متن کاملCellular Retinol- and Retinoic Acid-binding Proteins of Bovine Retina
A three-step purification has been developed for the cellular retinoland cellular retinoic acid-binding proteins from extracts of bovine retina. The two binding proteins elute together in Step 1 (gel filtration) and separate in Step 2 (DEAE-cellulose chromatography), and each is purified to apparent homogeneity in the third step (calcium phosphate gel chromatography). The retinoland retinoic ac...
متن کاملBinding of retinol induces changes in rat cellular retinol-binding protein II conformation and backbone dynamics.
The structure and backbone dynamics of rat holo cellular retinol-binding protein II (holo-CRBP II) in solution has been determined by multidimensional NMR. The final structure ensemble was based on 3980 distance and 30 dihedral angle restraints, and was calculated using metric matrix distance geometry with pairwise Gaussian metrization followed by simulated annealing. The average RMS deviation ...
متن کاملLoss of retinol-binding properties for plasma retinol-binding protein in normal human epidermis.
Terminal differentiation of the keratinocytes (cornification) has been linked to a restricted supply of retinol. Retinol is distributed to target cells by the retinol-binding protein (RBP), which circulates in the plasma in complex with transthyretin (TTR). In this study we have addressed the question of retinol delivery to the epidermis via RBP. Retinol radiobinding assays, affinity chromatogr...
