Glucocerebrosidase: reconstitution from macromolecular components depends on acidic phospholipids.
The reconstitution of glucocerebrosidase activity from its inactive macromolecular components depended on acidic membrane phospholipids.
متن کاملRibosomal components from Escherichia coli 50 S subunits involved in the reconstitution of peptidyltransferase activity.
Incubation of 50 S subunits from Escherichia coli in the presence of 1.5 M LiCl yielded 1 . 5 ~ core particles which contained -20 proteins and were inactive with respect to peptidyltransferase activity. The proteins of the split fraction were isolated and their effects with respect to restoration of activity were tested in reconstitution assays. Purified L16 was able to restore activity, but t...
متن کاملForced extraction of targeted components from complex macromolecular assemblies.
When individual protein components of supramolecular complexes are required for assembly, determining whether they play additional structural or functional roles can be difficult. Removing a protein from the complex after assembly can circumvent this problem. Here, we show that an AAA+ unfoldase/protease can extract an essential assembly protein from the ribosome. Specifically, Mg(2+) depletion...
متن کاملSedimentation behavior of some macromolecular components from Streptococcus pyogenes.
Considerable interest has developed in recent years concerning the composition of the bacterial cell at a macromolecular level (Rodenberg, 1958; Wagan et al., 1958; Hess et al., 1957). Schachman et al. (1952) were apparently the first workers to study the sedimentation behavior of extracts obtained from disrupted microbial cells. These workers used a variety of methods to rupture the cells. The...
متن کاملReconstitution of outer membrane protein assembly from purified components.
Beta-barrel membrane proteins in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts are assembled by highly conserved multi-protein complexes. The mechanism by which these molecular machines fold and insert their substrates is poorly understood. It has not been possible to dissect the folding and insertion pathway because the process has not been reproduced in a biochemical system. We purif...
