Detection of Active Matriptase Using a Biotinylated Chloromethyl Ketone Peptide
Matriptase is a member of the family of type II transmembrane serine proteases that is essential for development and maintenance of several epithelial tissues. Matriptase is synthesized as a single-chain zymogen precursor that is processed into a two-chain disulfide-linked form dependent on its own catalytic activity leading to the hypothesis that matriptase functions at the pinnacle of several...
متن کاملZymogen/Enzyme Discrimination Using Peptide Chloromethyl
Glutamylglycinylarginyl chloromethyl ketone, tyrosylglycinylarginyl chloromethyl ketone, and phenylalanylprolylarginyl chloromethyl ketone have been labeled at their amino termini using fluorescein, rhodamine-X, lissamine-rhodamine, pyrene, and the 1,5-, 2,5-, and 2,6-dimethylaminonaphthalene-l-sulfonyl moieties. These peptidyl chloromethyl ketones have also been modified by incorporation of bi...
متن کاملMechanisms of growth inhibition in human papillomavirus positive and negative cervical cancer cells by the chloromethyl ketone protease inhibitor, succinyl-alanine-alanine-proline-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone.
The chymotrypsin-like serine protease inhibitor, succinyl-alanine-alanine-proline-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (AAPF(CMK)), has been shown to have anticarcinogenic activity in a number of model systems and to be relatively selective for a nuclear protease. This inhibitor also has substantial effects on growth of tumorigenic human papillomavirus (HPV)-infected keratinocytes in organotypic r...
متن کاملSynthesis of EF24-tripeptide chloromethyl ketone: a novel curcumin-related anticancer drug delivery system.
The blood coagulation cascade includes a step in which the soluble protein, factor VIIa (fVIIa), complexes with its transmembrane receptor, tissue factor (TF). The fVIIa/TF protein-protein complex is subsequently drawn into the cell by endocytosis. The observation that TF is aberrantly and abundantly expressed on many cancer cells offers an opportunity to specifically target those cells with an...
متن کاملDetection and isolation of the erythropoietin receptor using biotinylated erythropoietin.
Procedures have been developed to label human erythropoietin (Ep) with biotin to detect and isolate the Ep-receptor. The labeling method used the abundant carbohydrate groups on Ep and resulted in biologically active biotin-Ep (b-Ep) containing 8 to 10 biotins per Ep molecule. Specific binding of b-Ep to cells from spleens of mice made anemic by phenylhydrazine injections was demonstrated using...
