Characterization of 101-kDa transglutaminase from Physarum polycephalum and identification of LAV1-2 as substrate.

Plasmodial transglutaminase of Physarum polycephalum was purified by anion exchange and hydrophobic chromatography. Gel filtration and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicate that it is a monomer of 96-101 kDa. It is Ca2+-dependent, with half-maximal activity at 0. 7 mM Ca2+. Optimal activity occurs at pH 7.5 and at 50 mM KCl. Inactivation by N-ethylmaleimide indicates that it is a thio...

Arterial Calcification Requires Tissue-Type Transglutaminase

Calcification of the arterial wall occurs in, among others, atherosclerosis and aging. The role of calcification in plaque stability is subject of ongoing discussion; media calcification in aging and diabetes increases stiffness and pulse pressure.1 It is now clear that calcification is not simply a passive process but, rather, is tightly regulated, involving induction of an osteochondrogenic p...

Identification and Purification of two Mammalian Nourotoxins from Iranian Scorpion (Buthotus schach) Venom

  Scorpion venoms contain of variety of peptides toxic to mammals ، insects and crustaceans. Toxic peptides are the main factors in scorpion venom causing toxicity, (their amount being 1-3%of total venom.). Most of the scorpion toxins have been isolated from the venoms of scorpions in the family Buthidae. The scorpion Buthotus Schach belonging to the Buthidae family is widely found in the weste...

Up-regulation of tissue-type transglutaminase after traumatic brain injury.

Tissue-type transglutaminase (tTG, EC 2.3.2.13) has been implicated in various disease paradigms including neurodegenerative disease. In these studies, tTG induction after traumatic brain injury was studied using a rat cortical impact model. Using western blots, two forms of tTG protein expression were identified--an approximately 79-kDa primary form (tTG-L) and a less abundant approximately 70...
