The purification and characterisation of novel dipeptidyl peptidase IV-like activity from bovine serum.

چکیده
The discovery of a potentially novel proline-specific peptidase from bovine serum is presented which is capable of cleaving the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPIV) substrate Gly-Pro-MCA. The enzyme was isolated and purified with the use of Phenyl Sepharose Hydrophobic Interaction, Sephacryl S-300 Gel Filtration, and Q-Sephacryl Anion Exchange, producing an overall purification factor of 257. SDS PAGE resulted in a monomeric molecular mass of 158kDa while size exclusion chromatography generated a native molecular mass of 328kDa. The enzyme remained active over a broad pH range with a distinct preference for a neutral pH range of 7-8.5. Chromatofocusing and isoelectric focusing (IEF) revealed the enzyme's isoelectric point to be 4.74. DPIV-like activity was not inhibited by serine protease inhibitors but was by the metallo-protease inhibitors, the phenanthrolines. The enzyme was also partially inhibited by bestatin. Substrate specificity studies proved that the enzyme is capable of sequential cleavage of bovine beta-Casomorphin and Substance P. The peptidase cleaved the standard DPIV substrate, Gly-Pro-MCA with a K(M) of 38.4 microM, while Lys-Pro-MCA was hydrolysed with a K(M) of 103 microM. The DPIV-like activity was specifically inhibited by both Diprotin A and B, non-competitively, generating a K(i) of 1.4 x 10(-4) M for both inhibitors. Ile-Thiazolidide and Ile-Pyrrolidide both inhibited competitively with an inhibition constant of 3.7 x 10(-7) and 7.5 x 10(-7) M, respectively. It is concluded that bovine serum DPIV-like activity share many biochemical properties with DPIV and DPIV-like enzymes but not exclusively, suggesting that the purified peptidase may play an important novel role in bioactive oligopeptide degradation.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests that secretome of mesenchymal stem cells has many anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, which makes it a suitable candidate for the treatment of autoimmune and degenerative diseases. Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV (DPP-IV)/CD26 and Aminopeptidase N (APN)/CD13 are ubiquitous ecto-enzymes which can digest various substrates including some ...

Purification and characterization of dipeptidyl peptidase IV-like enzymes from bovine testes.
Until now, only recombinant forms of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP) 8 and 9 have been characterized. We purified non DPPII-non DPPIV enzymes from a natural source. A first DPP8/9-like enzyme was enriched 1160-fold from bovine testes and identified as 'DPP9-like enzyme' by using an anti-DPP9 antibody. A second 576-fold enriched preparation ('DPP enriched peak 3') also showed DPP8/9-like activity. SD...
