Ecdysteroid 7,9(11)-dien-6-ones as potential photoaffinity labels for ecdysteroid binding proteins
Three ecdysteroid 7,9(11)-dien-7-ones (dacryhainansterone, 25-hydroxydacryhainansterone and kaladasterone) were prepared by dehydration of the corresponding 11a-hydroxy ecdysteroids (ajugasterone C, turkesterone and muristerone A, respectively). The biological activities of the dienones in the Drosophila melanogaster B(II) cell bioassay, which reflect the affinity for the ecdysteroid receptor c...
متن کاملFungal ecdysteroid-22-oxidase, a new tool for manipulating ecdysteroid signaling and insect development.
Steroid hormones ecdysteroids regulate varieties of developmental processes in insects. Although the ecdysteroid titer can be increased experimentally with ease, its artificial reduction, although desirable, is very difficult to achieve. Here we characterized the ecdysteroid-inactivating enzyme ecdysteroid-22-oxidase (E22O) from the entomopathogenic fungus Nomuraea rileyi and used it to develop...
متن کامل8-Azidoflavins as photoaffinity labels for flavoproteins.
8-Azidoflavins have been synthesized and their potential as photoaffinity labels for flavoproteins has been explored. They are very photolabile, and in aqueous media they react with solvent to yield 8-aminoflavins and 8-hydroxlaminoflavins as the main products. They fulfill the criteria expected of a good photoaffinity label, since they bind stoichiometrically at the flavin-binding site of flav...
متن کاملA Steroid-Binding Protein from Insect Haemolymph Isolated by PhotoafTinity Labelling and Immunoadsorption
Immunoadsorption, Ecdysteroids, Calliphorin, Steroid-Binding Protein, Photoaffinity-Labelling Endogenous ecdysteroids as well as radiolabelled exogenous ecdysone were crosslinked to a protein when haemolymph from blowfly larvae was irradiated with UV-light under optimized conditions. This indicates that larval haemolymph of blowflies contains an ecdysteroid-binding protein. The crosslinked ecdy...
متن کاملCharacterization of azidobenzamidines as photoaffinity labels for trypsin.
Meta- and para-azidobenzamidine have been prepared and evaluated as photoaffinity labels. The compounds inhibit trypsin reversible in the dark and are competitive with substrate binding. Upon photolysis, irreversible noncompetitive inhibition is observed and is dependent upon concentration, photolysis time, and pH. Specificity of the probes is indicated by experiments in which p-tosyl-l-arginin...
