Functional characterization of the Tn5 transposase by limited proteolysis.
The 476 amino acid Tn5 transposase catalyzes DNA cutting and joining reactions that cleave the Tn5 transposon from donor DNA and integrate it into a target site. Protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions are important for this tranposition process. A truncated transposase variant, the inhibitor, decreases transposition rates via the formation of nonproductive complexes with transposase. Here...
متن کاملLocalization of the C termini of the Rh (rhesus) polypeptides to the cytoplasmic face of the human erythrocyte membrane.
We have raised a rabbit antiserum to a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C terminus (residues 400-416) of the Rh30A polypeptide. The rabbit antiserum reacted with the Rh30B (D30) polypeptide in addition to the Rh30A (C/c and/or E/e) polypeptide(s), indicating that these proteins share homology at their C termini. The antiserum did not react with erythrocyte membranes from an individual wit...
متن کاملProbing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis
Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
متن کاملControlled Proteolysis of Nascent Polypeptides in Rat Liver Cell Fractions
Rough microsomes were incubated in an in vitro amino acid-incorporating system for labeling the nascent polypeptide chains on the membrane-bound ribosomes. Sucrose density gradient analysis showed that ribosomes did not detach from the membranes during incorporation in vitro. Trypsin and chymotrypsin treatment of microsomes at 0 degrees led to the detachment of ribosomes from the membranes; fur...
متن کاملProbing protein structure by limited proteolysis.
Limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of proteins. In a number of studies it has been demonstrated that the sites of limited proteolysis along the polypeptide chain of a protein are characterized by enhanced backbone flexibility, implying that proteolytic probes can pinpoint the sites of local unfolding in a protein chain. Limited proteolysis ...
