Large scale purification of hog renin. Physicochemical characterization.

چکیده
Renin was purified from 47 kg of hog kidney to produce enough enzyme for enzymatic and physicochemical characterization. The procedure included extraction at pH 3.5 in the presence of protease inhibitors, two ammonium sulfate precipitations, ion exchange chromatography on Sepharose-hexamethylenediamino-pepstatin gel, gel filtration, and isoelectric focusing. Renin, 2.3 mg, with a specific activity of 1,100 GU/mg of protein was obtained with about 70,000-fold purification and 16% overall recovery. The purity criteria were: (1) a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-gel electrophoresis, (2) same retardation factor on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for renin activity, protein and glycoprotein coloration. Renin was characterized by its stability at--20 degrees C, pH 6.5; its molecular weight on SDS-gel electrophoresis, 36,800; its relative mobility on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 7.8; its isoelectric point, 5.15; its amino acid composition, which revealed that renin is a glycoprotein; and its Michaelis constant on tetradecapeptide substrate at pH 6.6, Km = 7.7 X 10(-6) M.

Spleen cells from mice immunized with partially purified hog kidney renin were fused with mouse myeloma cells to produce a stable monoclonal hybridoma cell line that synthesizes an antibody against renin. A single monoclonal antibody was chosen for study and has been produced in large quantity and purified by affinity chromatography on protein A-Sepharose. The antirenin, which belongs to the Ig...
متن کاملThe Purification and Partial Characterization of Several Forms of Hog Renin Substrate
Hog renin substrate has been separated into three major (A, B, and C) and two minor forms (D and E) by DEAE cellulose chromatography. Two of the major forms (B and C) have been further fractionated into two additional types (1 and 2) by countercurrent distribution. The purification of substrates A, C(1), and C(2) has been completed. Analysis shows that all three are glycoproteins with molecular...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Renin-antirenin System
Rabbit antibody capable of neutralizing the pressor activity of the enzyme renin, derived from hog kidneys, was characterized with respect to type and capacity to react serologically. Three antirenin antibodies were detected, both a precipitating and nonprecipitating, neutralizing antibody as well as a neutralizing antibody capable of being absorbed by inactivated renin. The precipitating, neut...
متن کاملSpecific antibody to hog renal renin and its application to the direct radioimmunoassay of renin in various organs.
We produced anti-hog renin antibodies using as antigens pure hog renal renin that either had been insolubilized or conjugated to tetanus toxoid. High titer antibodies were obtained, which demonstrated different cross-reactivity with renins from other species. A direct radioimmunoassay for renin was developed using antibody, monoiodinated 125I-hog renin, and various methods for separating free a...
متن کاملAntibodies to renin as proof of the pathogenesis of sustained renal hypertension.
Antirenin to hog renin produced in the dog neutralizes the acute pressor effect of dog as well as hog renin. A course of intramuscular injections of hog renin in chronic renal hypertensive dogs produces an antihypertensive effect which is correlated with the antirenin titers of the plasma. Passive transfer of high titer homologous antiserum to hog renin produces an anti-hypertensive effect in c...
