Isolation and amino acid sequence of a novel 6%kDa mitochondrial proteolipid from beef heart
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have isolated a 6.8 kDa proteolipid from an acidic chloroform/methanol extract of bovine cardiac muscle. The molecular mass of the polypeptide was measured by fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry (FAB-MS) (m/z 6834.1). Its amino acid sequence was partly determined by direct sequencing and completed by characterization of cyanogen bromide and tryptic fragments (sequencing, FAB-MS and amino acid analysis). The polypeptide consists of 60 amino acid residues. Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbit allowed its localization by electroimmunoblotting in mitochondria.

We searched for novel Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell mutants defective in peroxisome biogenesis by an improved method using peroxisome targeting sequence (PTS) of Pex3p (amino acid residues 1–40)-fused enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). From mutagenized TKaEG3(1–40) cells, the wild-type CHO-K1 stably expressing rat Pex2p and of rat Pex3p(1–40)-EGFP, numerous cell colonies resistant to...
متن کاملCharacterization of cDNA sequence encoding for a novel sodium channel -toxin from the Iranian scorpion Mesobuthus eupeus venom glands
The venoms of Buthidae scorpions are known to contain basic, single-chain protein -toxins consisting of 60-70 amino acid residues that are tightly cross-linked by four disulfide bridges. Total RNA was extracted from the venom glands of scorpion Mesobuthus eupeus collected from the Khuzestan province of Iran and then cDNA was synthesized with the modified oligo (dT) primer and extracted total R...
متن کاملMitochondrial Phosphate Transport
The mitochondrial phosphate transport protein (PTP) has been purified in a reconstitutively active form from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candidaparapsilosis. ADP/ATP carriers that copurify have been identified. The PTP from S. cerevisiae migrates as a single band (35 kDa) in sodium dodecyl sulfate gels with the same mobility as the N-ethylmaleimide-alkylated beef heart PTP. It does not cross-r...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of adenylate kinase from the human filarial parasite Onchocerca volvulus
Adenylate kinases (ADK) are ubiquitous enzymes that contribute to the homeostasis of adeninenucleotides in living cells. In this study, the cloning of a cDNA encoding an adenylate kinase from the filariaOnchocerca volvulus has been described. Using PCR technique, a 281 bp cDNA fragment encoding part ofan adenylate kinase was isolated from an O. volvulus cDNA library. Use of this fragment as a p...

Kruppel-like factors (Klfs) are a highly related zinc-finger family of transcription factors implicated inthe regulation of the eukaryotic cellular growth and differentiation of a diverse set of cells in mammal. UsingRT-PCR technique, a 456 bp cDNA fragment encoding N-terminus part of a Klf2b was isolated from the skinmucosa of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) using two degenerative oligonucleotid...
