The purification and characterisation of novel dipeptidyl peptidase IV-like activity from bovine serum.
The discovery of a potentially novel proline-specific peptidase from bovine serum is presented which is capable of cleaving the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPIV) substrate Gly-Pro-MCA. The enzyme was isolated and purified with the use of Phenyl Sepharose Hydrophobic Interaction, Sephacryl S-300 Gel Filtration, and Q-Sephacryl Anion Exchange, producing an overall purification factor of 257. SDS PAG...
متن کاملActivity of dipeptidyl peptidase IV and post-proline cleaving enzyme in sera from osteoporotic patients.
The activity of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.5) in human sera from normal controls and osteoporotic patients was assayed with Gly-Pro-4-methylcoumaryl-7-amide (Gly-Pro-MCA) as substrate, at pH 8.7. The mean normal value for the activity in serum of 120 healthy subjects (ages 20-86 y) was 54.0 (SE 0.9, range 34.3-81.6) U/L at 37 degrees C and differed slightly but significantly between the...
متن کاملActivities of dipeptidyl peptidase II and dipeptidyl peptidase IV in mice with lupus erythematosus-like syndrome and in patients with lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.
We examined the activities of peptidases in plasma and tissues of the New Zealand Black (NZB) mouse as an animal model of human systemic lupus erythematosus, and also in serum from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Activities of dipeptidyl peptidase II (DAP II) and post-proline cleaving enzyme (PPCE) were increased, and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DAP IV) activit...
متن کاملActivity of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV/CD26 and Aminopeptidase N/CD13 in Secretome of Mesenchymal Stem Cells after Treatment with LPS and PMA
Background: Emerging evidence suggests that secretome of mesenchymal stem cells has many anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, which makes it a suitable candidate for the treatment of autoimmune and degenerative diseases. Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV (DPP-IV)/CD26 and Aminopeptidase N (APN)/CD13 are ubiquitous ecto-enzymes which can digest various substrates including some ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of dipeptidyl peptidase IV from human placenta.
Human placenta is surprisingly rich in post-proline dipeptidyl peptidase activity. Among various cell fractions, microsomes have the highest specific activity. A homogeneous enzyme preparation is obtained in a six-step purification procedure. The final preparation appears homogeneous upon dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis, but analytical isoelectric focussing reveals various active bands with iso...
