چکیده

Micro-organisms have been isolated that can utilize o-coumaric acid as a sole carbon source with the subsequent production of 4-hydroxycoumarin and dicoumarol. One of these organisms, Penicillium jenseni, has been used to examine the biosynthesis of dicoumarol. Certain thermophilic fungi have also been found that can convert o-coumaric acid into dicoumarol.

Vitamin K and the biosynthesis of prothrombin. II. Structural comparison of normal and dicoumarol-induced bovine prothrombin.

Highly purified dicoumarol-induced bovine prothrombin, which does not bind calcium ions and has no prothrombin activity, has been structurally compared with normal prothrombin. Quantitative amino acid and carbohydrate analysis gave identical results for both prothrombins, as did analysis of the NHz-terminal and the COOH-terminal amino acids and molecular weight determination with the sodium dod...

A New Vitamin K-dependent Protein

Four proteins active in blood coagulation have long been known to require vitamin K for their proper biosynthesis: factors II, VII, IX, and X. This paper describes the purification of a hitherto unrecognized vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein from bovine plasma. The biosynthesis of this protein is interfered with by the vitamin K antagonist Dicoumarol. The molecular weight of the protein is appro...

Vitamin K and the biosynthesis of prothrombin. IV. Isolation of peptides containing prosthetic groups from normal prothrombin and the corresponding peptides from dicoumarol-induced prothrombin.

The 25,000 Af, fragment obtained by thrombin digestion of normal prothrombin has been further compared with the corresponding fragment from dicoumarol-induced prothrombin. In contrast with the fragment from normal prothrombin, the one from dicoumarol-induced prothrombin does not bind calcium (STENFLO, J. (1973) /. Biol. Chem. 248, 6325). After cyanogen bromide degradation of this material, a fr...
