چکیده
A biologically active bifunctional retinoid, ethyl 14-carboxyretinoate, has been synthesized and shown to bind cellular retinoic acid (RA)-binding protein (CRABP) via its free carboxy group. We describe herein the synthesis of 14-carboxy-13-cis-retinamide-Sepharose 4B, which is an affinity matrix bearing an all-trans-RA moiety, and thus was used to purify and characterize CRABP from chick-embryo skin. An amide bond was first formed between the free carboxy group of the retinoid and a primary amino group of aminohexyl-Sepharose 4B, by reaction with carbodi-imide, and the ester group of the resin-bound retinoid was then hydrolysed in an alkaline medium. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and f.p.l.c. Superose column-chromatographic analysis demonstrated that the affinity-purified CRABP (Mr 15,000) was close to electrophoretic homogeneity (greater than 90%) and specifically interacts with RA. By using affinity gel chromatography, conversion of holo-CRABP into apo-CRABP by treatment with p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and a possible involvement of a thiol group in RA binding to CRABP were established. This affinity procedure provides several advantages: (i) 14-carboxy-13-cis-retinamide-Sepharose exhibited high efficiency and selectivity for RA-binding protein (i.e. retinol- or fatty-acid-binding proteins did not bind); (ii) the presence of the amide linkage between the ligand and the matrix makes this affinity resin relatively stable to cytosolic enzymes; and (iii) other RA-binding proteins, e.g. nuclear receptor(s), may be purified.

Cellular retinoic acid binding protein (CRABP) has been expressed efficiently in Escherichia coli from the cDNA of bovine adrenal CRABP and characterized, especially with respect to affinity for endogenous retinoids and a role for it in retinoic acid metabolism. The purified E. coli-expressed CRABP was similar to authentic mammalian CRABP in molecular weight (approximately 14,700), isoelectric ...

The growth inhibitory effects of four retinoic acid (RA) derivatives, 9-cis RA, 13-cis RA, N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) retinamide (4-HPR), and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) were compared. In addition, the effects of various combinations of these four agents were examined on non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cell-lines, and on the expressions of retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X recepto...

Two different calcium-binding proteins, S-100 and calmodulin, have been isolated from bovine brain by calcium-dependent affinity chromatography on calmodulin antagonist coupled to Sepharose. Calmodulin antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-l-napthdenesulfonamide (W-7) has been coupled to epoxy-activated Sepharose 6B or cyanogen bromide-acitivated Sepharose 4B. S-100-like protein bound to W-7 cou...
