Characterization of the thyroxine-binding site of thyroxine-binding globulin by site-directed mutagenesis.
The principal transport protein for T4 in human blood, thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG), binds T4 with an exceptionally high affinity (Ka = 10(10) M(-1)). Its homology to the superfamily of the serpins has recently been used in the design of chimeric proteins, providing experimental evidence that an eight-stranded beta-barrel domain encompasses the ligand-binding site. We have now characterized...
متن کاملCharacterization of the zinc binding site of bacterial phosphotriesterase.
The bacterial phosphotriesterase has been found to require a divalent cation for enzymatic activity. This enzyme catalyzes the detoxification of organophosphorus insecticides and nerve agents. In an Escherichia coli expression system significantly higher concentrations of active enzyme could be produced when 1.0 mM concentrations of Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, and Cd2+ were included in the growth medium....
متن کاملCharacterization of the Escherichia coli SecA signal peptide-binding site.
SecA signal peptide interaction is critical for initiating protein translocation in the bacterial Sec-dependent pathway. Here, we have utilized the recent nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Förster resonance energy transfer studies that mapped the location of the SecA signal peptide-binding site to design and isolate signal peptide-binding-defective secA mutants. Biochemical characterization ...
متن کاملInvestigation and Determination the Binding Site of Glycyrrhizin of Liquorice to DNA
Glycyrrhizin(GL), is a triterpenoid saponin found in glychyrrhiza glabra (liquorice). This compound is a frequently used and very effective drug for the treatment of various malignancies. This study was designed to examine the interactions of glycyrrhizin with calf thymus DNA in aqueous solution at physiological conditions. FTIR spectroscopic method was used to determine the ligand binding mode...
متن کاملMutational analysis of the L1 binding site of 23S rRNA in Escherichia coli.
The L11 ribosomal protein operon of Escherichia coli contains the genes for L11 and L1 and is feedback regulated by the translational repressor L1. Both the L1 binding site on 23S rRNA and the L1 repressor target site on L11 operon mRNA share similar proposed secondary structures and contain some primary sequence identity. Several site-directed mutations in the binding region of 23S rRNA were c...
