Expression, purification, and characterization of a recombinant neutral ceramidase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Ceramidase (CDase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of ceramide (Cer) to sphingosine (Sph) and fatty acid. We have reported the molecular cloning and preliminary characterization of the Mycobacterium CDase (MtCDase) (J. Biol. Chem., 274, 36616-36622 (1999)). To determine its function further, MtCDase was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by Ni-Sepharose and gelfiltration. The purified recombin...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a novel ceramidase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
We report here a novel type of ceramidase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa AN17 isolated from the skin of a patient with atopic dermatitis. The enzyme was purified 83,400-fold with an overall yield of 21.1% from a culture supernatant of strain AN17. After being stained with a silver staining solution, the purified enzyme showed a single protein band, and its molecular mass was estimated to be 70 kDa o...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of neutral and alkaline invertase from carrot.
Neutral and alkaline invertase were identified in cells of a suspension culture of carrot (Daucus carota L.) and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Neutral invertase is an octamer with a molecular mass of 456 kD and subunits of 57 kD, whereas alkaline invertase is a tetramer with a molecular mass of 504 kD and subunits of 126 kD. Both enzymes had sharp pH profiles, with maximal activities...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a ribonuclease from human liver.
The major ribonuclease of human liver has been isolated in a four-step procedure. The protein appears homogeneous by several criteria. The amino acid composition and the amino-terminal sequence of the enzyme indicate that the protein is related to human pancreatic ribonuclease and to angiogenin, and that it may be identical with an eosinophil-derived neurotoxin and to a ribonuclease that has be...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a metallo-endoproteinase from mouse kidney.
A metallo-endoproteinase was purified from mouse kidney. The enzyme was solubilized from the 100 000 g sediment of kidney homogenates with toluene and trypsin, and further purified by fractionation with (NH4)2SO4. DEAE-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration. The molecular weight of the metalloproteinase was estimated by gel filtration on Sepharose 6B to be 270 000--320 000. On sodium dodec...
