Activation of the multicatalytic proteinase from rat skeletal muscle by fatty acids or sodium dodecyl sulphate.

ABSTRACT: A multicatalytic proteinase from rat skeletal muscle contains active site(s) catalysing the degradation of benzoyl-Val-Gly-Arg 4-methyl-7-coumarylamide, succinyl-Ala-Ala-Phe 4-methylcoumarylamide and [14C]methylcasein as well as benzyloxy-carbonyl-Leu-Leu-Glu 2-naphthylamide. These activities are 7-14-fold activated by 1 mM-sodium dodecyl sulphate. The activation leads to a higher susceptibility to the proteinase inhibitor chymostatin and to a lower ability to be inhibited and precipitated by antibodies raised against the non-activated enzyme. Since no changes in Mr or subunit composition were observed in the SDS-activated form, some conformational changes seem to occur during the activation step. More pronounced activation was observed in the presence of physiological concentrations of fatty acids; oleic acid at 100 microM concentrations stimulated the proteinase about 50-fold. In contrast with the non-activated proteinase, the activated enzyme considerably degrades muscle cytoplasmic proteins in vitro. Thus it is not unlikely that, in vivo, potential activators such as fatty acids can induce the multicatalytic proteinase to participate in muscle protein breakdown.

Development and characterisation of a low-concentration sodium dodecyl sulphate decellularised porcine dermis.

Project description:The aim of this study was to adapt a proprietary decellularisation process for human dermis for use with porcine skin. Porcine skin was subject to: sodium chloride (1?M) to detach the epidermis, trypsin paste to remove hair follicles, peracetic acid (0.1% v/v) disinfection, washed in hypotonic buffer and 0.1% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate in the presence of proteinase inhibitors followed by nuclease treatment. Cellular porcine skin, decellularised porcine and human dermis were compared using histology, immunohistochemistry, GSL-1 lectin (alpha-gal epitope) staining, biochemical assays, uniaxial tensile and in vitro cytotoxicity tests. There was no microscopic evidence of cells in decellularised porcine dermis. DNA content was reduced by 98.2% compared to cellular porcine skin. There were no significant differences in the biomechanical parameters studied or evidence of cytotoxicity. The decellularised porcine dermis retained residual alpha-gal epitope. Basement membrane collagen IV immunostaining was lost following decellularisation; however, laminin staining was retained.

Purification and characterization of a multicatalytic high-molecular-mass proteinase from rat skeletal muscle.

Project description:A proteolytic enzyme was purified from the post-myofibrillar fraction of rat skeletal muscle. The purification procedure consisted of fractionation of the muscle extract by (NH4)2SO4, chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, fast protein liquid chromatography on Mono Q and gel filtration on Sepharose 6B. The enzyme preparation appeared to be homogeneous as judged by disc electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels and by immunoelectrophoresis. The isoelectric point of the proteinase is at 5.1-5.2. The enzyme has an Mr of about 650 000 and dissociates into eight subunits of Mr 25 000-32 000 when subjected to electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels. The proteinase contains hydrolytic activity against N-blocked tripeptide 4-methyl-7-coumarylamide substrates with an arginine or phenylalanine residue adjacent to the leaving group. Maximum activity with the first group of substrates was at pH 10.5, and this activity was inhibited by leupeptin, chymostatin and Ca2+. Maximum activity with the latter group of substrates was at pH 7.5, and was also inhibited by the two microbial inhibitors, but was activated by Ca2+ ions. By using [14C]methylcasein as a substrate, maximum activity was observed at pH9.0, and this proteolytic activity was not affected by leupeptin, was enhanced by chymostatin and inhibited by Ca2+. Similar effects were observed when benzyloxycarbonyl-Leu-Leu-Glu 2-naphthylamide was used as a substrate. These enzymic activities were abolished by p-hydroxymercuribenzenesulphonic acid or mersalyl acid, whereas a small activation was observed with cysteine or dithiothreitol.

Mobility of sodium dodecyl sulphate - protein complexes.

Project description:Reduced and unreduced lysozyme aggregates formed by formaldehyde cross-linking comprise a set of model compounds for studying the effects of protein conformation on the electrophoretic mobilities of sodium dodecyl sulphate-protein complexes. The reduced aggregates were indistinguisable from normal proteins, but the unreduced aggregates migrated anomalously fast by about 14%. Contrary to expectations, plots of logarithm Rf versus Kr (retardation coefficient) failed to reveal an unusual conformation for the unreduced aggregates. Thus the anomalous mobility caused by several intramolecular disulphide bonds escaped detection by the above two diagnostic plots. Also included in this paper is a discussion of the implications of these results with regard to current models for sodium dodecyl sulphate-protein complexes.

Proteomic analysis of the human skin proteome after in vivo treatment with sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:BackgroundSkin has a variety of functions that are incompletely understood at the molecular level. As the most accessible tissue in the body it often reveals the first signs of inflammation or infection and also represents a potentially valuable source of biomarkers for several diseases. In this study we surveyed the skin proteome qualitatively using gel electrophoresis, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GeLC-MS/MS) and quantitatively using an isobaric tagging strategy (iTRAQ) to characterise the response of human skin following exposure to sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS).ResultsA total of 653 skin proteins were assigned, 159 of which were identified using GeLC-MS/MS and 616 using iTRAQ, representing the most comprehensive proteomic study in human skin tissue. Statistical analysis of the available iTRAQ data did not reveal any significant differences in the measured skin proteome after 4 hours exposure to the model irritant SDS.ConclusionsThis study represents the first step in defining the critical response to an irritant at the level of the proteome and provides a valuable resource for further studies at the later stages of irritant exposure.

Cytochrome P450 102A2 Catalyzes Efficient Oxidation of Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate: A Molecular Tool for Remediation.

Project description:Bacterial cytochrome P450s (CYPs) constitute an important family of monooxygenase enzymes that carry out essential roles in the metabolism of endogenous compounds and foreign chemicals. In the present work we report the characterization of CYP102A2 from B. subtilis with a focus on its substrate specificity. CYP102A2 is more active in oxidation of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) than any other characterized CYP. The effect of SDS and NADPH concentration on reaction rate showed nonhyperbolic and hyperbolic dependence, respectively. The enzyme was found to exhibit a bell-shaped curve for plots of activity versus pH, over pH values 5.9-8.5. The rate of SDS oxidation reached the maximum value approximately at pH 7.2 and the pH transition observed controlled by two pK(a)s in the acidic (pK(a) = 6.7 ± 0.08) and basic (pK(a) = 7.3 ± 0.06) pH range. The results are discussed in relation to the future biotechnology applications of CYPs.

The binding of sodium dodecyl sulphate to various proteins.

Project description:1. The binding of sodium dodecyl sulphate to proteins by equilibrium dialysis was investigated. 2. Most of the proteins studied bound 90-100% of their weight of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 3. The glycoproteins studied bound 70-100% of their weight of sodium dodecyl sulphate, calculated in terms of the polypeptide moiety of the molecule. 4. Proteins not containing S.S groups bound about 140% of their weight of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 5. Reduction of four proteins containing S.S groups caused a rise in sodium dodecyl sulphate binding to 140% of the weight of protein. 6. The apparent micellar molecular weights of the protein-sodium dodecyl sulphate complexes were measured by the dye-solubilization method; they were all found to have approximately the same micellar molecular weight (34000-41000) irrespective of the molecular weight of the protein to which they were attached.

The dissociation of glucose oxidase by sodium n-dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:1. The enzymic activity of glucose oxidase was determined as a function of pH and sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) concentration. 2. Glucose oxidase is not deactivated by SDS at pH 6 even after prolonged incubation, but is deactivated at pH 4.3 and 3.65. 3. Sedimentation-rate analysis showed that glucose oxidase dissociates into its two subunits at pH 5 and below, and sedimentation-equilibrium experiments in the presence of SDS gave a subunit molecular weight of 73,500. 4. SDS binds to glucose oxidase in acid solutions; specific binding occurs ap pH 3.65, but at pH 6 only co-operative binding was observed. 5. Glucose oxidases in which some of the carboxy groups were blocked with glycine methyl ester were deactivated by SDS at pH 6.0; the rate of deactivation increased with the extent of esterification. 6. Deactivation of esterified glucose oxidases correlated with thermal analysis of the initial SDS interaction, the exothermicity of the interaction increasing with the extent of esterification. 7. The results show that carboxy groups confer resistance to deactivation by SDS on glucose oxidase by screening cationic residues and inhibiting specific interactions that facilitate dissociation into subunits.

Collagen fibril formation in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) was used to weaken both the electrostatic and the hydrophobic interactions during collagen fibrillogenesis in vitro. The rate and extent of fibril formation as well as fibril morphology were affected by SDS concentration. Both the formation of large fibrils at 0.3 mM-SDS and the complete cessation of fibril formation at 0.5 mM-SDS were considered to be the result of SDS-induced conformational changes in the non-helical telopeptides. A possible mechanism of SDS interaction with the N-terminal and the distal region of the C-terminal telopeptides is offered.

The interaction between Beta-lactoglobulin and sodium N-dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:1. The binding of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate to beta-lactoglobulin was studied in the pH range 3.5-7.0 by equilibrium dialysis, ultracentrifugation and microcalorimetry. 2. At low binding concentrations (less than 30 bound surfactants anions per protein molecule) the complexes formed aggregates in solution. 3. At higher binding concentrations aggregation does not occur at low ionic strength (0.01 mol/litre), but continues at high ionic strength (0.1 mol/litre). 4. At 25 degrees C the enthalpy of interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate with beta-lactoglobulin can be interpreted as the sum of the enthalpies of formation of a complex with 2 bound surfactant anions, with an enthalpy change of -9.5 kJ-mol-1 of bound surfactant, and complexes containing at least 22 bound surfactant anions, with limiting enthalpies per bound surfactant anion of -12.4 kJ-mol-1 at pH 3.5 and -3.25 kJ-mol-1 at pH 5.5. 5. The binding of surfactant and the enthalpy of interaction at pH 3.5 ARE NOT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY THE ADDITION Of 8 M-urea. 6. The data indicate that at low binding concentrations the interaction is of an ionic nature, and is accompanied by a conformational change in the protein.

Phosphate Adsorption from Aqueous Solution Using Electrospun Cellulose Acetate Nanofiber Membrane Modified with Graphene Oxide/Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate.

Project description:Eutrophication and water pollution caused by a high concentration of phosphate are two concerning issues that affect water quality worldwide. A novel cellulose-based adsorbent, cellulose acetate/graphene oxide/sodium dodecyl sulphate (CA/GO/SDS), was developed for water treatment. A 13% CA solution in a mixture of acetone:dimethylacetamide (2:1) has been electrospun and complexed with a GO/SDS solution. The field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) showed that the CA membrane was pure white, while the CA/GO/SDS membrane was not as white as CA and its colour became darker as the GO content increased. The process of phosphate removal from the solutions was found to be aided by the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the CA modified with GO/SDS, as shown by infrared spectroscopy. An optimization condition for the adsorption process was studied by varying pH, immersion time, and the mass of the membrane. The experimental results from phosphate adsorption showed that CA/GO/SDS had an excellent pH adaptability, with an optimum pH of 7, and maximum removal (>87.0%) was observed with a membrane mass of 0.05 g at an initial concentration of 25 mg L-1. A kinetic study revealed that 180 min of contact time could adsorb about 87.2% of phosphate onto the CA/GO/SDS membrane. A typical pseudo-second-order kinetic model successfully portrayed the kinetic sorption of phosphate, and the adsorption equilibrium data were well-correlated with the Langmuir adsorption model, suggesting the monolayer coverage of adsorbed molecules.
