Cellular transglutaminase. The particulate-associated transglutaminase from chondrosarcoma and liver: partial purification and characterization.
A transglutaminase from the malignant chondrocytes, rat swarm chondrosarcoma cells, was partially purified and characterized in an effort to understand transformation-induced changes in its activity. This enzyme separated by DE52 column chromatography after extraction from the particulate fraction of cell lysate was found to be distinct from previously characterized transglutaminases in its ele...
متن کاملScreening for Celiac Disease Using Anti Tissue Transglutaminase in Patients with Esophageal SCC between 2004 and 2009
Introduction: Esophageal Squamous-Cell Carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most common malignancies in Iran. To reduce the incidence of esophageal SCC, it is important to recognize the controllable risk factors and prevent them. Celiac disease is widely known as a possible risk factor for esophageal SCC. Thus, we decided to assess the frequency of celiac disease in esophageal SCC patients in North...
متن کاملImmunological similarities of proteinase inhibitors from potatoes.
Proteinase inhibitors, purified independently from Japanese, United States, and German potato varieties, and having different physicochemical and inhibitory properties, are shown to be immunochemically similar. These results indicate that the heterogeneity found among proteinase inhibitors from potato tubers is apparently due both to intervarietal, as well as intravarietal, variations in isoinh...
متن کاملGene disruption of tissue transglutaminase.
Transglutaminase 2 (TGase 2), or tissue transglutaminase, catalyzes either epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine or N(1), N(8)-(gamma-glutamyl)spermidine isopeptide bonds. TGase 2 expression has been associated with apoptosis, and it has been proposed that its activation should lead to the irreversible assembly of a cross-linked protein scaffold in dead cells. Thus, TGase 2-catalyzed protein polymeriz...
متن کاملExercise, Vascular Stiffness, and Tissue Transglutaminase
BACKGROUND Vascular aging is closely associated with increased vascular stiffness. It has recently been demonstrated that decreased nitric oxide (NO)-induced S-nitrosylation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2) contributes to age-related vascular stiffness. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that exercise restores NO signaling and attenuates vascular stiffness by decreasing TG2 activity...
