On the reactivity of metallothioneins with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid).
Rat liver and horse kidney metallothioneins react with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (Nbs2) to release 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoate and metal ions. The reactions are slow and exhibit biphasic kinetics with each process having an empirical rate law of the form: rate - k[RSM] X [Nbs2] + k'[RSM], where RSM represents mental-bound thiolate groups. The pseudo-first-order rates are insensitive to pH...
متن کاملEffect of daylight on the reaction of thiols with Ellman's reagent, 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid).
The reaction of 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB, Ellman's reagent) with thiols is sensitive to daylight, in particular to ultraviolet radiation at wavelengths around 325 nm. Exposure to light at the absorbance maximum of the yellow product (the thionitrobenzoate ion) at 410 nm had no effect on the reaction. The light-sensitive species is apparently the DTNB, because a spectral-irradia...
متن کاملMechanism of the inactivation of guinea pig liver transglutaminase by 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid).
Reaction of 5,5’-dithiobis(24trobenzoic acid) (DTNB) with transglutaminase in the absence of calcium ion results in losses in the transferase and hydrolysis activities of the enzyme toward the substrate, benzyloxycarbonyl-L-glutaminylglycine (Z-L-glutaminylglycine). These activities are reduced 70 to 100% by reaction with 1 to 1.5 eq of DTNB. The calcium-dependent esterase activity of transglut...
متن کاملInhibition of the condensing component of chicken liver fatty acid synthase by iodoacetamide and 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid).
Chicken liver fatty acid synthase is inhibited by the thiol-modifying reagents 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and iodoacetamide. Total inactivation of the activity for fatty acid synthesis requires the modification of about 8 of the nearly 50 freely accessible thiol groups per molecule. The differential binding of iodo[14C]acetamide to phenylmethylsulphonyl fluoride-modified enzyme in the...
متن کاملInactivation of mouse liver glutathione S-transferase YfYf (Pi class) by ethacrynic acid and 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid).
Mouse liver glutathione S-transferase YfYf (Pi class) reacts with [14C]ethacrynic acid to form a covalent adduct with a stoichiometry of 1 mol per mol of subunit. Proteolytic digestion of the enzyme-[14C]ethacrynic acid adduct with V8 protease produced an 11 kDa fragment containing radioactivity. Sequencing revealed this to be an N-terminal peptide (minus the first 15 residues, terminating at G...
