Rapid separation of lysozyme from chicken egg white by reductants and thermal treatment.

چکیده
Reductants (0.1-2.0% ascorbic acid, cysteine, or cystine and 0.04-1. 0% beta-mercaptoethanol) were added to 5-fold diluted, salted duck egg whites (commercially and laboratory prepared) and fresh egg whites (chicken and duck), and subsequently the mixtures were heated at 70 degrees C for 1-10 min. The maximal recovery and purification fold of lysozyme obtained from fresh chicken egg whites added with 1. 0% ascorbic acid were 78% and 2.4, respectively. Storage tests showed that the obtained lyophilized lysozyme powder after dialysis was stable when refrigerated at 4 degrees C for 3 months.

Study the Interaction of Ni Complex of Tetradentate Schiff Base Ligand with HEN Egg White Lysozyme
AbstractInteraction of Ni complex(Salen= N, N´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. The protein binding affinity of Ni complex was found to be (3.0×103M−1). The binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 M...
متن کاملTurkey egg white lysozyme. Preparation of the crystalline enzyme and investigation of the amino acid sequence.
Crystalline turkey egg white lysozyme has been prepared by a simple procedure consisting of adsorption on carboxymethylcellulose followed by elution with (NH4)&03 solution and crystallization from 5 % NaCl solution. The twice crystallized enzyme gave a single peak when eluted from carboxymethylcellulose, and it migrated as a single band during disc electrophoresis. Separation of the tryptic pep...

Background & Aims: Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal aggregation of amyloid-β plaques in the brain. Although several studies have been done for finding effective medicines in the treatment of this disease, a drug that inhibits amyloid β aggregation and ameliorates the disorder has not been approved so far. One important therapeutic approach is use...
متن کاملExpression of Recombinant Human Lysozyme in Egg Whites of Transgenic Hens
Chicken egg lysozyme (cLY) is an enzyme with 129 amino acid (AA) residue enzyme. This enzyme is present not only in chicken egg white but also in mucosal secretions such as saliva and tears. The antibacterial properties of egg white can be attributed to the presence of lysozyme, which is used as an anti-cancer drug and for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. In this s...
متن کاملAmino acid sequence studies on bobwhite quail egg white lysozyme.
To test the immunological prediction that there should be two amino acid sequence differences between the lysozymes of the bobwhite quail and the chicken, the sequences of these two lysozymes have now been compared. Lysozyme purified from bobwhite quail egg white was reduced, carboxymethylated, and digested with trypsin. The resulting 18 peptides were separated and their compositions determined...
