Fluorescence polarization decay of tyrosine in lima bean trypsin inhibitor.
The fluorescence of lima bean trypsin inhibitor is due to a single tyrosine residue at position 69. The lifetime of this tyrosine fluorescence is 620 +/- 50 ps (mean +/- SD) and is little affected by addition of 0.88 M citrate, an efficient quencher of tyrosine fluorescence. The steady-state emission intensity is also only weakly reduced by the quencher. The tyrosine is thus not accessible to t...
متن کاملGlycosyl moiety of the lima bean lectin.
Pronase digestion of the lima bean lectin (Phaseolus lunatus (alpha-D-GalNAc greater than alpha-D-Gal)) afforded a glycopeptide of molecular weight 1380. Amino acid and carbohydrate analysis showed the glycopeptide to contain fucose, mannose, glucosamine, and aspartic acid in the molar ratios, 0.8:4.4:1.9:1.0. Methylation analysis, Smith degradation, and sequential degradation by specific glyco...
متن کاملLima bean proteinase inhibitor. Origins of circular dichroism bands and modification by Br2- and (CNS)2-.
Origins of CD bands in lima bean proteinase inhibitor were deduced from an acetylation-deacetylation study of the sole tyrosyl residue in the protein (Tyr 69), and by analogy with Bowman-Birk soybean proteinase inhibitor, a homologous protein with similar spectral properties. Tyr 69 is relatively inaccessible to N-acetylimidazole; 100-fold molar excess of the reagent in the presence of 6 M guan...
متن کاملAntigenic and calcium binding properties of a Peptide containing the essential cysteine in lima bean lectin.
Polyclonal antisera were raised against a peptide containing the cysteine residue required for carbohydrate binding activity in the lima bean lectin. The antisera were tested for cross-reactivity with (a) synthetic peptide analogs to the essential cysteine containing peptide, (b) proteolytic digests of related lectins, (c) native lectins. The antisera were specifically inhibited from binding to...
متن کاملEvidence for Genetic Restriction of Recombination in the Lima Bean.
is some evidence from studies of related species of plants that low T E a E a frequency is associated with outcrossing and high chiasma frequency is associated with selfing (reviews in GRANT 1958; BODMER and PARSONS 1962). From this it has been inferred that crossover rates have been adjusted by natural selection toward high values in selfing species to compensate for the restrictions imposed o...
