Reversible calcitonin binding to solubilized sheep brain binding sites.
In this study we have solubilized and characterized binding sites for calcitonin (CT) from sheep brainstem. Autoradiography of 125I-labelled salmon CT (125I-sCT) binding to sheep diencephalon revealed a similar pattern of binding to that seen in other species, although the extent of distribution was greater in the sheep. CT binding activity could be extracted from membranes with either CHAPS or...
متن کاملTHE CALCIUM BINDING SITES OF THE BAKERS' YEAST TRANSKETOLASE
The calcium binding sites of Bakers' Yeast Transketolase (TK) was elucidated by estimating the pKa values of the functional groups that bind to calcium. These pKa's were found to be 6.25 and 7.2 relating to the pKa's of the two immidazol moieties of histidine residues on the enzyme. The rate of the binding of calcium to the enzyme was obtained separately as a function of pH. Maximum values ...
متن کاملNeurotoxin binding to receptor sites associated with voltage-sensitive sodium channels in intact, lysed, and detergent-solubilized brain membranes.
[3H]Saxitoxin binds to a single class of receptor sites in rat brain synaptosomes and in broken membrane fractions derived from rat brain with a KD of approximately 2 11~ at 36°C. Batrachotoxin and scorpion toxin, which act at different receptor sites to activate sodium channels, have no effect on saxitoxin binding. Osmotic lysis and depolarization also have no effect on saxitoxin binding. Thes...
متن کاملOpiate receptor binding sites in human brain.
Subclasses of opiate receptor binding sites in human brain membranes were investigated by means of competitive binding techniques. The experimental data were analyzed by use of a computerized non-linear regression curve fitting program. mu-, delta-and chi-types of opiate binding were found in 5 different regions of the brain. A more extensive analysis of the regional distribution of subclasses ...
متن کاملManganese and Iron Binding to Human Transferrin
The characteristics of manganese and iron binding to human apotransferrin (apo-tf) have been investigated and compared in this study. Both metal ions were taken up by human apo-tf and formed complexes, with the maximum absorbances observed at 410 and 340 nm for manganese-transferrin (Mn-tf) and 465 nm for iron-transferrin (Fe-tf). Addition of manganese (1.5 µg/ml) to the reaction mixture contai...
