Studies on the Glycosidases in Jack Bean Meal
نویسندگان
چکیده
The monosaccharide u&s most commonly found in glycoproteins are n-galactose, n-mannose, M-acetyl-u-glucosamine, sialic acid, and L-fucose. The hydrolysis of individual carbohydrate units by specific glycosidases is an excellent tool for studying the sequenbial arrangement and anomeric configuration of the carbohydrate units in the glycoproteins. In previous studies, cr-mannosidase (cr-u-mannoside mannohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.24), /3-N-acetylglucosaminidase (P-2-acetylamino-2-dcoxy-n-glucoside acetylaminodeoxyglucohydrolnse, EC 3.2.1.30), and P-galactosidase (P-n-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.23) were found to liberate mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, and galactose, respectively, from various glycoprotein preparations (l-3). Although the glycosidases which hydrolyze the carbohydrate portion of glycoproteins have been isolated from various sources (1, 2, 4-6), no convenient method is currently available for the simultaneous separation of several glycosidases from one source. Because of their promising applicability, we undertook an investigation to find a simple method for isolating individual glycosidase from jack bean meal without cross-contamination with other glycosidases. In this communicat~ion, we wish t.o describe the separation of cr-mannosidase, P-N-acetylglucosaminidase, and P-galactosidase simuhanrously from jack bean meal by an isoelectric focusing technique. Preparation of &zymes-Unless otherwise indicat’ed, all of the operations were conducted between 0” and 4”. A 100-g portion of jack bean meal (Sigma) was estract.ed by stirring vigorously

متن کاملRumen Degradability and Model Prediction of Nutrient Supply to Ruminants from Different Processed Soybean Meals
DVE2010 system was used for model prediction of nutrient supply to ruminants from soy bean meal (SBM), extruded soy bean meal (SBE) and full-fat soybean meal (FSBM). Extruded soy bean meal had the highest truly absorbed rumen undegraded protein in the small intestine (ARUP) followed by SBM and FSBM. There was no significant difference between SBE and FSBM in the case of truly absorbed rumen syn...
متن کاملThe Determination of Blood Urea
Most of the methods for the determination of urea in blood involve the use of the enzyme urease to hydrolyze the urea, since this reaction is specific. However, instead of crystalline urease (l), crude jack bean meal extracts are used. These extracts have been found to contain other enzymes besides urease, termed “ammonia-producing” enzymes, and their substrates, which may produce large quantit...
