Kinin-Forming Enzyme of Rat Cardiac Tissue
We have previously reported the presence of a cardiac kinin-generating enzyme (CKGE) in human cardiac tissue. The present study was undertaken to examine the subcellular localization and the biochemical properties of this system in rat cardiac tissue. Cardiac bomogenate (20 mg) was incubated with beattreated plasma substrate and citrate-pbospbate buffer (pH 5.3) in the presence of peptidase inh...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of Isoamyl Alcohol Oxidase ("Mureka"-Forming Enzyme).
Isoamyl alcohol oxidase (IAAOD) was purified to apparent homogeneity on SDS-PAGE from ultrafiltration (UF) concentrated sake. IAAOD was a glycoprotein, a monomeric protein with an apparent molecular mass of 73 and 87 kDa, by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration on HPLC, respectively. IAAOD showed high substrate specificity toward C5 branched-chain alkyl alcohol (isoamyl alcohol), and no activity toward ...
متن کاملThe First Component of the Kinin-forming System in Human and Rabbit Plasma
The isolation and characterization of the first component of the kinin-forming system in human and rabbit plasma are presented. Functionally, the molecule is the precursor of the activator of prekallikrein (Pre-PKA) and evidence is presented that it is identical with Hageman factor (clotting factor XII). The component from each plasma possessed similar characteristics. This molecule was found t...
متن کاملAldehyde-forming fatty acyl-CoA reductase from cyanobacteria: expression, purification and characterization of the recombinant enzyme.
Long-chain acyl-CoA reductases (ACRs) catalyze a key step in the biosynthesis of hydrocarbon waxes. As such they are attractive as components in engineered metabolic pathways for 'drop in' biofuels. Most ACR enzymes are integral membrane proteins, but a cytosolic ACR was recently discovered in cyanobacteria. The ACR from Synechococcus elongatus was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified an...
متن کاملDefective Esterase and Kinin-Forming Activity in Human Fletcher Trait Plasma
Fletcher trait plasma failed to generate kinin and developed only a small amount of arginine esterase activity at an abnormally slow rate following surface activation. Neither defect was due to a deficiency of Hageman factor (HF, factor XII) or kininogen or to an excessively rapid inactivation of evolving kinin. Pyrex pretreated with Fletcher trait plasma did not generate kinin normally in fres...
