The primary structure of monomeric beta-lactoglobulin I from horse colostrum (Equus caballus, Perissodactyla). beta-Lactoglobulin-like proteins were detected in horse colostrum and normal milk using immunological techniques. In contrast to the beta-lactoglobulins sequenced so far these proteins are monomeric and genetically not homogenous. In this paper we report the first primary structure of a monomeric beta-lactoglobulin from horse colostrum. By means of an automatic liquid-phase sequenator the sequence of peptides obtained by tryptic digestion and by cyanogen bromide cleavage was determined. A limited tryptic digestion and hydrolysis with chymotrypsin provided the necessary overlapping peptides. Th...
Active-site titration of horse urinary kallikrein. Horse urinary kallikrein was titrated with the reagent 4-nitrophenyl 4-guanidino-benzoate. The titration was shown to be dependent upon the concentration of the titrant. This finding, which distinguishes horse urinary kallikrein from other enzymes, is explained by the relatively small ratio between its rate of acylation and deacylation (k2/k3 = 16.8) and by a low affinity of the reagent (Km = 1.16 microM). By an appropriate kinetic treatment, it was possible to establish the relationship between the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate and the actual concentration of the active enzy...
Fluorimetric determination of unsubstituted and 9(8)-O-acetylated sialic acids in erythrocyte membranes. A method is described for all quantitative determination of free or glycosidically bound sialic acids with special reference to erythrocyte membranes. Sialic acids, unsubstituted in their side chains, quantitatively yield formaldehyde after mild periodate oxidation (1 mM NaIO4, 15 min, 4 degrees C, in the dark). The formaldehyde is determined by the reaction with acetylacetone and ammonium acetate which leads to a sensitive fluorogen (F 410/510 nm). Sialic acids O-acetylated at C-9 or C-8 are not oxidized under these conditions. Therefore, they can be determined quantitatively by measuring the...
The cleavage of the Met-Lys bond in a bradykinin derivative by glandular kallikreins. The synthetic tridecapeptide Gly-Leu-Met-Lys-Arg-Pro-Pro-Gly-Phe-Ser-Pro-Phe-Arg was used as a model substrate for horse urinary and porcine pancreatic kallikreins. The Met-Lys bond is hydrolyzed selectively by both enzymes. Oxidation of the methionine residue to sulfoxide made the peptide resistant to both kallikreins. Substitution of either the methionine or lysine residues by norleucine led to peptides in which the Nle-Lys or the Met-Nle bonds, respectively, were susceptible to the urinary kallikrein. The esterolytic and Met-Lys bond-splitting activities of both enzymes were inhibited simil...
[Hemoglobins, XXXIII. Note on the Sequence of the hemoglobins of the horse (author’s transl)]. The sequence analysis of the slow migrating component of the hemoglobins of horse was repeated with the automatic methode in the sequenator and the sequence of the beta-chains completed. In the alpha-chains the positions of alpha63 and alpha65 (Gly, Ala) and alpha82 and alpha85 (amides) were changed and the remaining 40 sequences of the beta-chains are reported. According to these data and biological contributions of other authors, the biological aspects of the primary structure and the polymorphism of the hemoglobins of the horse are discussed.
The lectin-binding sites of the erythrocyte membrane components of horse, swine and sheep. Characterization by their molecular weights. The membrane components of equine, porcine and ovine erythrocytes were separated by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and subsequently incubated with the radioiodinated lectins from lentils (LCH), castorbeans (RCA), Phaseolus beans (L-PHA), gorse seeds (UEH-F) and from vineyard snails (HPA). The following individual glycoproteins could be labeled: gp 26, 33, 100 and 320 in horse erythrocytes, gp 24, 46, 75, 130 and 210 in swine and gp 24, 57, 100 and 210 in sheep erythrocytes.
[The interaction between phosphate and protein, and the respiration of the llama, the human fetus and the horse (author’s transl)]. The sequence analysis of llama (Lama glama, Camelidae) hemoglobin is described. The chains were separated, cleaved by trypsin as previously described, quantitatively characterized and sequenced in the sequenator. The llama hemoglobin differs from the human hemoglobin in that it has 25 different amino acids in the alpha chain and 24 different amino acids in the beta chain. The interaction between protein and phosphate is discussed. The earlier finding that the O2 affinity of the llama hemoglobin is dependent on its content of 2, 3-bisphosphoglycerate is interpreted here as a mutation of the 2, ...
