Altered properties of human T-lymphoblast soluble low Km 5'-nucleotidase: comparison with B-lymphoblast enzyme.
Soluble low Km 5'-nucleotidases have been purified from human cultured T- and B-lymphoblasts to compare their properties and to examine the mechanism of different rates of nucleotide dephosphorylation. The enzyme from B-lymphoblasts (MGL-8) was 4385-fold purified with a specific activity of 114 mumol/min/mg, while the enzyme from T-lymphoblasts (CEM, MOLT-4) was 4355-fold purified with a specif...
متن کاملDeoxycytidine kinase: properties of the enzyme from human leukemic granulocytes.
Deoxycytidine kinase, which phosphorylates deoxycytidine (CdR) and its analog, cytosine arabinoside (ara-C), has been purified 71-fold from human leukemic cells. Biochemical properties of the partially purified enzyme included a molecular weight of 68,000, Kms of 7.8 muM for CdR and 25.6 muM for ara-C, and optimal activity with ATP and GTP as phosphate donors. Ara-C phosphorylation was strongly...
متن کاملKinetic Properties and Inhibition
The kinetic properties of 50,000-fold purified cultured human T lymphoblast (MOLT-4) deoxycytidine kinase were examined. The reaction velocity had an absolute requirement for magnesium. Maximal activity was observed at pH 6.5-7.0 with Mg:ATP for 1:l. High concentrations of free Mg2+ or free ATP were inhibitory. Double reciprocal plots of initial velocity studies yielded intersecting lines for b...
متن کاملKinetic properties and small-molecule inhibition of human myosin-6
Myosin-6 is an actin-based motor protein that moves its cargo towards the minus-end of actin filaments. Mutations in the gene encoding the myosin-6 heavy chain and changes in the cellular abundance of the protein have been linked to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Here, we present a detailed kinetic characterization of the human myosin-6 motor domain, descri...
متن کاملHuman deoxycytidine kinase as a deoxyribonucleoside phosphorylase.
Human deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) is a key enzyme in the 5'-phosphorylation of purine and pyrimidine deoxynucleosides with deoxycytidine as the most efficient substrate. The ability of dCK to degrade 2'-deoxyribonucleosides to free nucleobases and 2-deoxy-alpha-d-ribofuranose-1-phosphate was demonstrated by 1H-31P correlation spectroscopy and by isotope enzyme kinetic methods. The reaction depen...
