چکیده

ASA-NeuAc2en, a photoreactive arylazide derivative of sialic acid, is shown to be a powerful competitive inhibitor of lysosomal neuraminidase from bovine testis (Ki approximately 21 microM). Photoaffinity labeling and partial purification of preparations containing this lysosomal neuraminidase activity result in specifically and non-specifically labeled polypeptides. Only labeling in a 55 kDa polypeptide is found to be specific, since it could be prevented by the competitive neuraminidase inhibitor NeuAc2en. We conclude that the 55 kDa polypeptide in the bovine testis beta-galactosidase/neuraminidase/protective protein complex contains the catalytic site of neuraminidase.

The kinetic properties of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:lysosomal-enzyme N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase (GlcNAc-phosphotransferase) purified to homogeneity from lactating bovine mammary gland have been investigated. GlcNAc-phosphotransferase transferred GlcNAc 1-phosphate from UDP-GlcNAc to the synthetic acceptor alpha-methylmannoside, generating GlcNAc-1-phospho-6-mannose alpha-methyl, the...

Detection of Neuraminidase Activity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1

Objective(s) Some properties of neuraminidase produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 growth in a defined medium (BHI) were examined and evaluated for its features. Materials and Methods The obtained supernatant enzyme of P. aeruginosa PAO1 cultures was used in a sensitive fluorometric assay by using 2'-(4-methylumbelliferyl) a-D-N acetylneuraminic acid as substrate. As hydrolyzing MUN with ...

Parathyroid hormone receptors are plasma membrane glycoproteins with asparagine-linked oligosaccharides.

In the preceding article, we described physicochemical and kinetic properties of parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptors in clonal rat osteosarcoma cells (ROS 17/2.8) using photoaffinity ligand labeling and showed that the physiologically relevant receptor-ligand complex has an apparent Mr = 80,000. In this study, the photoaffinity labeled Mr = 80,000 receptor was localized exclusively on the cell ...
