Solubilization and Partial Purification of Amino Acid-Specific Components of the D-Lactate Dehyrogenase-Coupled Amino Acid-Transport Systems

Bacterial Amino Acid Transport Systems

The roles of the cell membrane as both a permeability barrier to foreign substances and as a selective filter which admits nutrient molecules have been recognized as fundamentally important to animal physiology since the first decade of this century. It was not until the 1950's, however, that microbiologists recognized that bacteria possess membrane transport systems, distinct from their metabo...

conjugated linoleic acids, amino acid profile and other characteristics of meat produced under identical condition from two iranian fat tailed breeds of lamb

گوشت قرمز یکی از مهم ترین فرآورده های دامی در تأمین پروتئین و انرژی می باشد که در حمل ویتامین های محلول در چربی نیز حائز اهمیت می باشد. انسان مانند سایر مهره داران اسید های چرب ضروری (لینولئیک و آلفا لینولنیک) مورد نیاز خود از طریق غذا تأمین می نماید. اسید های چرب ضروی پیش ساز اسید های چرب غیر اشباع با چند پیوند دوگانه هستند. اسید لینولنیک پیش ساز اسیدهای چرب امگا 3 و اسید لینولئیک نیز پیش ساز ...

Purification, subunit structure, and partial amino acid sequence of metapyrocatechase.

The enzyme anthranilate-5-phosphoribosylpyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase from Serratia marcescens was purified to apparent homogeneity. The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex gel filtration and hydroxyapatite chromatography. The molecular weight of the native protein as determined on a calibrated Sephadex G-200 column w...

A corticotrophin-releasing factor: partial purification and amino acid composition.

Acidic phospholipids are required during solubilization of amino acid transport systems of Lactococcus lactis.

The branched-chain amino acid transport system of Lactococcus lactis was solubilized with n-octyl beta-D-gluco-pyranoside and reconstituted into proteoliposomes. Transport activity was recovered only when solubilization was performed in the presence of acidic phospholipids. Omission of acidic phospholipids during solubilization resulted in an inactive transport protein and the activity could no...
