Bovine seminal ribonuclease produced from a synthetic gene.
Bovine seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNase), a homolog of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A), is isolated as a dimer in which the subunits are cross-linked by two disulfide bonds. In addition to this anomalous quaternary structure, the enzyme has extraordinary biological properties, such as antispermatogenic, antitumor, and immunosuppressive activities. The molecular bases for these properties...
متن کاملSwapping structural determinants of ribonucleases: an energetic analysis of the hinge peptide 16-22.
Bovine seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNase) is a homodimeric enzyme strictly homologous to the pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A). Native BS-RNase is an equilibrium mixture of two distinct dimers differing in the interchange of the N-terminal segments and in their biological properties. The loop 16-22 plays a fundamental role on the relative stability of the two isomers. Both the primary and tertiary...
متن کاملA misfolded but active dimer of bovine seminal ribonuclease.
Bovine seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNase) is an unusual homolog of RNase A. Isolated from bulls as a dimer, BS-RNase has special biological properties including antispermatogenic, antitumor and immunosuppressive activities. The structural bases for these properties are unknown. Four forms of BS-RNase were isolated after folding and air oxidation of the denatured and reduced protein produced in Esc...
متن کاملCrystal structure of a hybrid between ribonuclease A and bovine seminal ribonuclease ± the basic surface, at 2.0 AÊ resolution
A variant of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A has been prepared with seven amino acid substitutions (Q55K, N62K, A64T, Y76K, S80R, E111G, N113K). These substitutions recreate in RNase A the basic surface found in bovine seminal RNase, a homologue of pancreatic RNase that diverged some 35 million years ago. Substitution of a portion of this basic surface (positions 55, 62, 64, 111 and 113) enhan...
متن کاملCatalytic activity of bovine seminal ribonuclease is essential for its immunosuppressive and other biological activities.
Bovine seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNase) is a homologue of RNase A with special biological properties, including potent immunosuppressive activity. A mutant BS-RNase was created in which His-119, the active-site residue that acts as a general acid during catalysis, was changed to an aspartic acid. H119D BS-RNase formed a dimer with quaternary structure similar to that of the wild-type enzyme but ...
متن کاملMechanism of ribonuclease cytotoxicity.
Bovine seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNase), a dimeric homolog of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A), is toxic to mammalian cells. In contrast to dimeric BS-RNase, a monomeric BS-RNase and RNase A are not cytotoxic and are bound tightly by cytosolic ribonuclease inhibitor. To elucidate the mechanism of ribonuclease cytotoxicity, we constructed a series of hybrid and semisynthetic enzymes and...
