چکیده

trans-3-Hydroxy-nn-proline-3,4-3H was synthesized by reduction of N-carbobenzoxy-3-keto-DLproline methyl ester with NaBH4 (4). Uniformly labeled n-proline-r4C was obtained from New England Nuclear Corporation. Uniformly labeled 4-hydroxy-r.-prolineJ4C was generously donated to us by Dr. Chozo Mitoma. Seven-day-old chick embryos were obtained from the Duckworth Hatchery (Elkridge, Maryland) and incubated in a moist atmosphere at 37” for 1 to 2 days before use.

Incorporation of cis-hydroxyproline into protocollagen and collagen. Collagen containing cis-hydroxyproline in place of proline and trans-hydroxyproline is not extruded at a normal rate.

Incubation of cartilage from chick embryos with l*C3,5-cis-hydroxy-DL-proline demonstrated that cis-hydroxyproline is incorporated into the collagen and other protein synthesized by the tissue. Gel filtration of extracts from the tissue demonstrated that the proteins synthesized in the presence of cis-hydroxyproline were about the same size as proteins synthesized under control conditions. Incu...

Protocollagen proline hydroxylase from Ascaris lumbricoides.

An enzyme was found in the muscle layers of Ascaris lumbricoides which was similar to the protocollagen proline hydroxylase found in chick embryos and other vertebrates in that it synthesized 14C-hydroxyprolme when incubated with 14C-proline-labeled protocollagen from chick cartilage. The Ascaris enzyme was also similar in that it required atmospheric oxygen, a-ketoglutarate, iron, and ascorbat...

Conversion of Proline to Collagen Hydroxyproline in a Cell-free System from Chick Embryo.

There is a unique relationship between proline hydroxylation and collagen biosynthesis, since proline, rather than free hydroxyproline, appears to be the major precursor of collagen hydroxyproline (1, 2). The early stages of collagen biosynthesis have been shown to be similar to the steps involved in the biosynthesis of other proteins in that hydroxyproline with the highest specific activity ap...

Hydroxylation of lysine and glycosylation of hydroxylysine during collagen biosynthesis in isolated chick-embryo cartilage cells.

Hydroxylation of lysine and glycosylation of hydroxylysine during collagen biosynthesis in isolated chick-embryo cartilage cells were studied by using continuous labelling and pulse-chase labelling experiments with [14C]lysine. Control experiments with [14C]proline indicated that in continuous labelling the hydroxylation of [14C]proline became linear with time after about 4 min and the secretio...

Studies on the additional peptide of procollagen extracted from chick embryo cartilage.

The additional peptide of procollagen is thought to play an important role in its synthesis, and attempts were made to elucidate the chemical properties of the additional peptide, particularly in regard to the possible existence of sugar substituents. Labeled procollagens were obtained with 4 M guanidine.HCl from chick embryo epiphyseal cartilages which had been incubated with [14C] proline, [1...
