Purification and Properties of Amine Oxidase from Epicotyls of Pisum sativum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure has been developed for the purification of amine oxidase (E.C. 1.4.3.4) from etiolated pea epicotyls (Pisum sativum cv. Little Marvel). The enzyme is sensitive to copper chelating reagents and carbonyl reagents, but is not inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. The purified enzyme has a molecular weight of 1.85 x 10(5), as determined by sedimentation equilibrium centrifugation, and has been shown to be specifically stimulated by phosphate.

Purification and properties of amine oxidase from pea seedlings
Amine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.6) was purified from pea (Pisum sativum) seedlings with the aim of characterizing its catalytic properties. The specific activity and selectivity of the enzyme were studied with an oxygen sensor by following the kinetics of the amine oxidation reaction, catalysed by the enzyme. The enzyme catalytic constants were calculated from the transient signal of the oxygen sensor ...
متن کاملPea (Pisum sativum) diamine oxidase contains pyrroloquinoline quinone as a cofactor.
Diamine oxidase was prepared from pea (Pisum sativum) seedlings by a new purification procedure involving two h.p.l.c. steps. We studied the optical and electrochemical properties of the homogeneous enzyme and also analysed the hydrolysed protein by several methods. The data presented here suggest that the carbonyl cofactor of diamine oxidase is firmly bound pyrroloquinoline quinone.
متن کاملLight-induced wilting and its molecular mechanism in epicotyls of dark-germinated pea (Pisum sativum L.) seedlings.
Possible mechanisms behind the light-induced wilting of dark-germinated pea (Pisum sativum L.) epicotyls were studied. Illumination with photosynthetically active radiation caused a fast turgor loss and wilting in the middle segments of the epicotyls accompanied by accumulation of water in the intercellular cavities. During this process, room temperature fluorescence emission spectra showed gra...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of pea seedling amine oxidase for crystallization studies.
Pea (Pisum sativum L.) seedling amine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.6) is the first amine oxidase to be crystallized that diffracts to atomic resolution (2.5 A). Extensive modifications of a published purification procedure were necessary to obtain protein that would give diffraction-quality crystals. Here we report the improved purification and also use this high-purity protein to reexamine some fundament...

Asparaginase was extracted from plant parts of Pisum sativum subspp. Jof collected from a field crop. Asparaginase activity was detected in seeds, stems and leaves extracts. Enzyme activity was higher in seeds extracts (30.0 U/ml) compared with leaves extracts (26.4 U/ml) and stems extracts (16.1 U/ml), respectively. Optimum conditions for the activity of crude asparaginase extracted from plant...
