Identification of lysine 134 in the steroid-binding site of the sex steroid-binding protein of human plasma.
The sex steroid-binding protein of human plasma SBP (or sex hormone-binding globulin, SHBG) was specifically inhibited with the alkylating affinity label, 17 beta-[[( 2-14C]bromoacetyl)oxy]-5 alpha-androstan-3-one. The natural ligand, 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone, was shown to protect against inactivation and labeling. The steroid-binding activity of the protein was abolished when approximately ...
متن کاملCharacterization of a cDNA coding for human factor VII.
Factor VII is a precursor to a serine protease that is present in mammalian plasma. In its activated form, it participates in blood coagulation by activating factor X and/or factor IX in the presence of tissue factor and calcium. Clones coding for factor VII were obtained from two cDNA libraries prepared from poly(A) RNA from human liver and Hep G2 cells. The amino acid sequence deduced from th...
متن کاملSteroid-protein interactions. XV. Isolation and characterization of corticosteroid-binding globulin from human plasma.
Corticosteroid-binding globulin was isolated from normal human plasma by successive anion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Ammonium sulfate fractionation was employed as a preliminary step when large volumes were processed. The purification was about 4000-fold. Homogeneity was shown by free boundary, agar and paper electrophoresis, sedimentation velocity, and diffusion. Immunoelectro...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel sex steroid binding protein.
We describe a cytoplasmic steroid binding protein in the chick oviduct which has intriguing characteristics. This protein binds [3H]estradiol with high affinity (Kd = 30 X 10(-9) M) and limited capacity (300 fmol/mg of cytosol protein). It sediments at 8 S in low-salt sucrose density gradients and at 4 S in high-salt gradients. Unlike the estrogen receptor, however, this protein also binds prog...
متن کاملCharacterization of cDNA coding for human factor XIIIa.
A cDNA library prepared from human placenta has been screened for sequences coding for factor XIIIa, the enzymatically active subunit of the factor XIII complex that stabilizes blood clots through crosslinking of fibrin molecules. Two oligonucleotides, based on the amino acid sequences of tryptic peptides of factor XIIIa, were used as hybridization probes. Of 0.36 X 10(6) independent recombinan...
