Aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from trichomonas vaginalis. Identity of aspartate aminotransferase and aromatic amino acid aminotransferase.
Aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from the anaerobic protozoon Trichomonas vaginalis was purified to homogeneity and characterized. It is a dimeric protein of overall Mr approx. 100000. Only a single isoenzyme was found in T. vaginalis. The overall molecular and catalytic properties have features in common with both the vertebrate cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isoenzymes. The purified ...
متن کاملStructural studies on aspartate aminotransferase from Escherichia coli. Covalent structure.
The amino acid sequence of aspartate aminotransferase from Escherichia coli was established by sequence analysis and alignment of 39 tryptic peptides and 7 cyanogen bromide peptides. The total number of amino acid residues of the subunit was 396, and the molecular weight was calculated to be 43,573. A comparison of the primary structure of the E. coli enzyme with all known sequences of the two ...
متن کاملKynurenine aminotransferase and glutamine transaminase K of Escherichia coli: identity with aspartate aminotransferase.
The present study describes the isolation of a protein from Escherichia coli possessing kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) activity and its identification as aspartate aminotransferase (AspAT). KAT catalyses the transamination of kynurenine and 3-hydroxykynurenine to kynurenic acid and xanthurenic acid respectively, and the enzyme activity can be easily detected in E. coli cells. Separation of t...
متن کاملPurification and properties of branched chain amino acid aminotransferase from gramicidin S-producing Bacillus brevis.
The branched chain amino acid aminotransferase [EC 2.6.1.42] was purified to a homogeneous state from a gramicidin S-producing strain of Bacillus brevis. The enzyme had a molecular weight of about 93,000 and consisted of two identical subunits, each with a molecular weight of about 47,000. One pyridoxal phosphate is bound per subunit. In addition to branched chain amino acids, the enzyme uses L...
متن کاملPurification and properties of 7, 8-diaminopelargonic acid aminotransferase.
The enzyme 7, 8-diaminopelargonic acid aminotransferase utilizes S-adenosyl-L-methionine to transaminate the biotin precurson 7-keto-8-aminopelargonic acid and form the next intermediate in the pathway, 7, 8-diaminopelargonic acid. The enzyme has been purified nearly 1000-fold from an extract of a regulatory mutant of Escherichia coli which is derepressed for the enzymes of the biotin operon. T...
