Extensive homology between the subunits of the phytohemagglutinin mitogenic proteins derived from Phaseolus vulgaris.
The phytohemagglutinin mitogenic proteins derived from Phaseolus vulgaris comprise a class of five glycoproteins that are isomeric tetramers composed of varying proportions of two different subunits (L and R). Within the native tetramer, the L subunit is a potent leukoagglutinin and mitogen that lacks hemagglutinating properties, whereas the R subunit is a potent hemagglutinin with little or no...
متن کاملIsolation of a new superantigen with potent mitogenic activity to murine T cells from Streptococcus pyogenes.
A mitogenic substance on murine lymphocytes was detected in the culture supernate of Streptococcus pyogenes type 12 strain. This substance had a molecular weight of 28,000 and pI 9.2, and was designated as S. pyogenes mitogen (SPM). The proliferative response of C3H/HeN spleen cells began at 1 ng ml-1 and reached a maximal response at 100 ng ml-1 of SPM for 4 days culture. Anti-Thy 1.2 mAb and ...
متن کاملPhytohemagglutinin Mitogenic Proteins
The phytohemagglutinin (PHAP) glycoproteins derived from Phaseolus vulgaris consist of five isomitogens that are tetrameric structures made up of two different glycoprotein subunits. Although identical in size (mol wt = 34,000), the subunits differ in their isoelectric points and amino acid sequences for six of the first seven amino-terminal residues, but are identical in primary structure from...
متن کاملMitogenic activity of staphylococcal peptidoglycan.
Staphylococcus aureus peptidoglycan displayed a marked dose-dependent mitogenic activity for mouse splenocytes and human peripheral blood lymphocytes in vitro, as measured by increased [3H]thymidine incorporation. Similarly it was mitogenic for athymic nude mouse spleen cells, whereas no blastogenic effect was observed in T cell-enriched and B cell-depleted mouse lymphocyte cultures. These data...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of Asparaginase from Phaseolus vulgaris Seeds
L-asparaginase from bacteria has been used in treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The aim of this study was to purify and characterize L-asparaginase from Phaseolus vulgaris seeds instead of microbial sources. L-asparaginase was purified to apparent homogeneity. The enzyme has molecular mass of 79 kDa. The purified asparaginase had very low activity toward a number of asparagine and glut...
