Substrate specificity of mammalian pyridine nucleotide transglycosidases.
Spectrophotometrical analysis of pyridine nucleotide transglycosidase in mammalian tissues indicated that the enzyme activity was observed to be distributed ubiquitously among the mammalian tissues analyzed, although the velocity ratio of transglycosidation/hydrolysis (vT/vH) and the partitioning of nicotinic acid against water differed with the pyridine nucleotide substrate and the mammalian s...
متن کاملPyridine nucleotide specificity of barley nitrate reductase.
NADPH nitrate reductase activity in higher plants has been attributed to the presence of NAD(P)H bispecific nitrate reductases and to the presence of phosphatases capable of hydrolyzing NADPH to NADH. To determine which of these conditions exist in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Steptoe), we characterized the NADH and NADPH nitrate reductase activities in crude and affinity-chromatography-purif...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of mammalian prenyl protein-specific endoprotease activity.
We have previously identified proteolytic activity in rat liver microsomes that cleaves an intact tripeptide, VIS, from S-farnesylated-CVIS tetrapeptide. This enzymatic activity, termed prenyl protein-specific endoprotease (PPEP) activity, has been solubilized in CHAPS and purified 5-fold. To probe the peptide recognition features of PPEP activity, 64 tripeptides [N-acetyl-C(S-farnesyl)a1a2] we...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Substrate Specificity of Mammalian Neuraminidases
The removal of sialic acid (Sia) residues from glycoconjugates in vertebrates is mediated by a family of neuraminidases (sialidases) consisting of Neu1, Neu2, Neu3 and Neu4 enzymes. The enzymes play distinct physiological roles, but their ability to discriminate between the types of linkages connecting Sia and adjacent residues and between the identity and arrangement of the underlying sugars h...
متن کاملPyridine Nucleotide Transhydrogenase
established unequivocally that either a hydrogen or electron transfer was involved in this reaction. The possibility of a transfer of the monoester phosphate group or an exchange of reduced and oxidized nicotinamidecontaining moieties (nucleoside, nucleotide, etc.) was ruled out by this and other experiments. There still remained, however, the problem of distinguishing experimentally between th...
