Calcium binding by the N-terminal cellulose-binding domain from Cellulomonas fimi beta-1,4-glucanase CenC.
The interaction of the N-terminal cellulose-binding domain, CBDN1, from Cellulomonas fimi beta-1,4-glucanase CenC with calcium was investigated using NMR spectroscopy and calorimetry. CBDN1 binds a single calcium ion with an equilibrium association constant of approximately 10(5) M-1 at 35 degreesC and pH 6.0. Binding is exothermic (-42 +/- 2 kJ mol-1) under these conditions and is accompanied ...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase I2 from human liver.
beta-N-Acetylhexosaminidase I2 was purified from human liver by a combination of concanavalin A chromatography, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, gel filtration and affinity chromatography on 2-acetamido-N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B. Its specific activity was 130 mumol/min per mg of protein compared with values of 150 and 320 mumol/m...
متن کاملDynamics of higher order rational difference equation $x_{n+1}=(alpha+beta x_{n})/(A + Bx_{n}+ Cx_{n-k})$
The main goal of this paper is to investigate the periodic character, invariant intervals, oscillation and global stability and other new results of all positive solutions of the equation$$x_{n+1}=frac{alpha+beta x_{n}}{A + Bx_{n}+ Cx_{n-k}},~~ n=0,1,2,ldots,$$where the parameters $alpha$, $beta$, $A$, $B$ and $C$ are positive, and the initial conditions $x_{-k},x_{-k+1},ldots,x_{-1},x_{0}$ are...
متن کاملAge dependence of serum beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase (NAG) activity.
Serum N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG; EC 3.2.1.30) is a hexosaminidase and may be a predictor of vascular injury, e.g., in infant respiratory distress syndrome, pneumonia, broncho-pulmonary dysplasia and necrotizing enterocolitis. To estimate the new diagnostic prospects we have modified our urinary NAG assay. In this sensitive colorimetric micro-assay, VRA-GlcNAc was used as a substrate....
متن کاملDistinguishing Candida species by beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase activity.
A variety of fungi produce the hydrolytic enzyme beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase (HexNAcase), which can be readily detected in assays by using p-nitrophenyl-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide as a substrate. In the present study we developed a microtiter plate-based HexNAcase assay for distinguishing Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis strains from other yeast species. HexNAcase activity was detec...
