Limited proteolysis of silkworm antitrypsin by several proteinases.
Silkworm antitrypsin (sw-AT) isolated from larval hemolymph was limitedly digested by Achromobacter lysylendopeptidase, alpha-chymotrypsin, subtilisin BPN', subtilisin Carlsberg, papain, or Pseudomonas elastase. Each proteinase could cleave specific site(s) around the reactive site identified for the reaction of sw-AT and bovine trypsin. Among these proteinases, only subtilisin BPN' was inhibit...
متن کاملSimilarities between stratum corneum basic protein and histidine-rich protein II from newborn rat epidermis.
The stratum corneum basic protein and histidine-rich protein II were each isolated from newborn rat epidermis and compared by biochemical and immunologic methods. The proteins were indistinguishable by immunodiffusion using antiserum elicited to either protein. The migration of the proteins on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was identical giving a molecular weight of 49 000. These protei...
متن کاملHistidine-rich proteins as molecular markers of epidermal differentiation.
Cells of the basal, spinous, and granular layers of the mammalian epidermis represent morphological stages in the differentiation of keratinocytes to form the outer cornified layer of the skin. In the newborn rat, concomitant with the transition of granular into cornified cells, there is a conversion of histidine-rich protein I (HRP,), localized in keratinocytes of the epidermal granular layer,...
متن کاملProbing protein structure by limited proteolysis.
Limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of proteins. In a number of studies it has been demonstrated that the sites of limited proteolysis along the polypeptide chain of a protein are characterized by enhanced backbone flexibility, implying that proteolytic probes can pinpoint the sites of local unfolding in a protein chain. Limited proteolysis ...
متن کاملLimited proteolysis of liver aldolase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase by lysosomal proteinases: effect on complex formation.
Cathepsin M, which catalyzes inactivation of both rabbit liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) and rabbit liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (Fru-P2ase; EC 3.1.3.11), has been characterized as a peptidyl peptidase. Modification of the COOH terminus of aldolase by cathepsin M or by Fru-P2ase converting enzyme 2 abolishes its ability to bind to phosphocellulose P11 and to form the...
