The genetic variants of group-specific component (vitamin D-binding protein) possess different binding characteristics for immobilized Cibacron Blue 3-GA.

ABSTRACT: The elution profiles of several variants of the Gc protein have been studied after chromatography on immobilized Cibacron Blue 3-GA. The allele products belonging to the Gcl type were retarded and eluted with a Ve/Vo at 1.5, as previously reported for the Gcl-1 phenotype [Chapuis-Cellier, Gianazza & Arnaud (1982) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 709, 353-357]. The allele products belonging to the Gc2 type were further retarded (Ve/Vo at 2.6), and both Gcl and Gc2 allele products were clearly separated in heterozygous individuals. This observation allows the isolation and purification of Gc variants in heterozygous individuals which carry the combination Gcl variant-Gc2, Gcl-Gc2 variant, or Gcl variant-Gc2 variant. In contrast, the corresponding holoproteins did not bind to the gel and were eluted in the void volume. This suggests that the interaction of Gc with immobilized Cibacron Blue 3-GA involves the binding site of the protein for 25-hydroxycholecalciferol and that the dye behaves as a 'pseudoligand' for the protein. In addition, our data suggest that the different elution profiles of the variants could reflect a different affinity of the gene products for the dye.

Chromatography of plasma proteins on immobilized Cibacron Blue F3-GA. Mechanism of the molecular interaction.

Project description:Fractionation of plasma proteins on immobilized Cibacron Blue F3-GA (Affi-gel Blue) under different conditions of pH, ionic strength and temperature was studied. At acidic pH the unbound proteins were eluted in order of increasing pI (the Affi-gel Blue behaving as ion-exchanger); at basic pH and at low ionic strength they were eluted in order of decreasing molecular weight (separation by diffusion-exclusion). For the proteins that were either retarded in comparison with substances of similar molecular characteristics, or that were bound to the resin, pseudo-ligand affinity or hydrophobic interactions were also implicated.

A general method for fractionation of plasma proteins. Dye-ligand affinity chromatography on immobilized Cibacron blue F3-GA.

Project description:The chromatographic behaviour of 27 different plasma proteins on fractionation of human plasma on immobilized Cibacron Blue F3-GA was studied. The column was eluted by using a three-step procedure. First, a low-molarity buffer (30 mM-H3PO4/Na3PO4, pH 7.0, I0.053) was used, then a linear salt gradient (0-1 M-NaCl in the buffer above) was applied, followed by a wash with two bed volumes of 1.0 M-NaCl. Finally, bound proteins were 'stripped' with 0.5 M-NaSCN. Up to 1 ml of whole plasma could be loaded per 5 ml bed volume. No denaturation of proteinase inhibitors or complement fractions was observed. The recovery of individual proteins ranged between 52 and greater than 95%. Enrichment of four individual plasma components (alpha 1-antitrypsin, caeruloplasmin, antithrombin III and haemopexin) was between 10-fold and 75-fold. These results indicate that chromatography on immobilized Cibacron Blue F3-GA can be a useful initial step in the purification of plasma proteins.

The effect of matrix on the binding of albumin to immobilized Cibacron Blue.

Project description:With Cibacron Blue as a ligand, the suitability of Sepharose, Sephacryl, cellulose and Ultrogel as column supports for the affinity chromatography of human serum albumin was examined. Sepharose and Sephacryl were the most effective matrices. Albumin was readily removed from such columns by using an electrophoretic desorption technique.

Studies on the mechanism of binding of serum albumins to immobilized cibacron blue F3G A.

Project description:The interaction of Cibacron Blue F3G A-Sepharose 4B with several serum albumins was studied. Although all albumins used were fond to bind to this adsorbent, human serum albumin was bound to a far greater extent than were the others. From the results of competition experiments and n.m.r. studies of Cibacron Blue and/or bilirubin binding to human serum albumin it is proposed that the mechanism of the interaction between human serum albumin and cibacron Blue is consistent wit Cibacron Blue binding to bilirubin-binding sites. In contrast with these findings with human serum albumin, there is little or no interaction of Cibacron Blue and the bilirubin-binding sites of albumins from rabbit, horse, bovine or sheep sera, although some interaction occurs between Cibacron Blue and the fatty acid-binding sites of these proteins. Structural analogues of Cibacron Blue have been used to investigate the binding of albumins to these ligands.

Comparative studies of the binding of some ligands to human serum albumin non-covalently attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue, or covalently immobilized on Sepharose, by column affinity chromatography.

Project description:A comparative study of the ligand-binding properties of human serum albumin was performed by the technique of affinity chromatography with the protein attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue F3GA (Blue Sepharose), or covalently immobilized on Sepharose. The binding strength of octanoate, decanoate and dodecanoate is much weaker when human serum albumin is attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue, indicating that the binding sites for fatty acids are involved in the attachment of human serum albumin to immobilized Cibacron Blue. The results revealed additional alterations of the ligand binding when human serum albumin was attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue, involving sites outside of the binding domains of fatty acids. Thus the stereoselective binding of L-tryptophan was abolished, and the resolution of the warfarin enantiomers was impaired. However, the binding strength of warfarin and salicylic acid was rather close to the values observed with human serum albumin covalently immobilized on Sepharose. It is suggested that the availability of the binding sites for L-tryptophan, warfarin and salicylic acid is partially blocked by the complex between albumin and the dye without direct participation in the complex-formation. An alternative interpretation involves an allosteric mechanism brought about by complex-formation between serum albumin and the immobilized Cibacron Blue.

The effect of ligand presaturation on the interaction of serum albumins with an immobilized Cibacron Blue 3G-A studied by affinity gel electrophoresis.

Project description:The interaction of the immobilized triazine dye Cibacron Blue 3G-A with rat, rabbit, sheep, goat, bovine and human serum albumins was studied by affinity gel electrophoresis. Dissociation constants were estimated in each instance and showed human serum albumin to have a significantly higher affinity for the dye than did albumin from any other species. Pretreatment of the defatted proteins with bilirubin (3 mol of bilirubin/mol of protein) did not increase the dissociation constants of the serum albumins, whereas pretreatment with palmitate (7 mol of palmitate/mol of protein) increased the dissociation constant in all cases: 3-fold for human serum albumin, 15-fold for other serum albumins. Increasing the bilirubin/albumin ratio (to 7:1) did not affect the dissociation constant of the albumins studied. Decreasing the palmitate/albumin ratio decreased the dissociation constant for human serum albumin, but did not affect those of bovine and rat albumins. Altering the chain length of the presaturating fatty acid dramatically changed the dissociation constant of both human and bovine serum albumins. Butyrate, hexanoate, octanoate and decanoate did not significantly influence the dissociation constants of bovine and human serum albumins for Cibacron Blue, whereas laurate, myristate and palmitate greatly increased the dissociation constant. These data are discussed in relationship to the behaviour of albumins during dye--agarose column chromatography. In Addendum the effect of nucleotide presaturation on the interaction between Bacillus stearothermophilus 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and the immobilized triazine dyes Cibacron Blue 3G-A and Procion Red HE-3B was examined, and the implications for dye--ligand chromatography are discussed.

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) and group-specific component (GC, vitamin D-binding protein) polymorphisms in myopia.

Project description:PurposeEpidemiologic evidence indicates that time outdoors reduces the risk of myopia, suggesting a possible role for vitamin D. This case-control study was conducted to determine whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within VDR at 12q13.11 and GC at 4q12-13 are associated with myopia.MethodsThe primary analysis was conducted on 81 white adult control subjects between 18 and 50 years of age with a spherical equivalent refractive error between +0.50 and +2.00 D in both eyes and less than 1.50 D of astigmatism. Affected myopic subjects were 289 unrelated white adults at least 18 years of age with at least -0.75 D myopia in both principal meridians of both eyes.ResultsOne SNP within VDR was significantly associated with myopia in the multivariate analysis of the primary sample (rs2853559: odds ratio = 1.99, P = 0.003). In a subsample of less severely myopic white subjects between -0.75 and -4.00 D, three SNPs within VDR were significantly associated in a multivariate model after adjustment for multiple comparisons (rs2239182: odds ratio = 2.17, P = 0.007; rs3819545: odds ratio = 2.34, P = 0.003; rs2853559: odds ratio = 2.14, P = 0.0035), accounting for 12% of model variance over age alone.ConclusionsPolymorphisms within VDR appear to be associated with low to moderate amounts of myopia in white subjects. Future studies should determine whether this finding can be replicated and should explore the biological significance of these variations with respect to myopia.

Inhibition of monkey liver serine hydroxymethyltransferase by Cibacron Blue 3G-A.

Project description:Cibacron Blue 3G-A inhibited monkey liver serine hydroxymethyltransferase competitively with respect to tetrahydrofolate and non-competitively with respect to L-serine. NADH, a positive heterotropic effector, failed to protect the enzymes against inhibition by the dye and was unable to desorb the enzyme from Blue Sepharose CL-6B gel matrix. The binding of the dye to the free enzyme was confirmed by changes in the dye absorption spectrum. The results indicate that the dye probably binds at the tetrahydrofolate-binding domain of the enzyme, rather than at the 'dinucleotide fold'.

Metal-ion-promoted binding of triazine dyes to proteins. The interaction of Cibacron Blue F3G-A with yeast hexokinase.

Project description:Bivalent metal ions, particularly Zn2+ and other members of the first-row transition series, promote irreversible inactivation of yeast hexokinase by Cibacron Blue F3G-A at a site competitive with both ATP and D-glucose. Difference spectroscopy indicates that the protein-dye dissociation constant is decreased from 250 micrometers in the absence of metal ions to less than 100 micrometers in the presence of appropriate concentrations of metal ions, with specificity displayed in the sequence of Zn2+ greater than Cu2+ greater than Ni2+ greater than Mn2+. Quantitative inactivation of yeast hexokinase leads to the incorporation of approx. 1 mol of Cibacron Blue F3G-A/mol of subunit of mol. wt. 51 000 in both the presence and the absence of metal ion. These results suggest the formation of a highly specific ternary complex involving enzyme, dye and metal ion at the active-site region of the enzyme, and correlate well with the known effects of metal ions in promoting the binding of hexokinase to immobilized Cibacron Blue F3G-A.

Interaction of pigeon-liver nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide kinase with cibacron blue F3GA.

Project description:The interaction of pigeon liver NAD kinase with Cibacron Blue F3GA was investigated. By using steady-state rate measurements, spectrophotometric titration and chromatography of the enzyme on immobilized dye, it was shown that binding occurs at two nucleotide sites with different affinities, and also at a site distinct from the substrate-binding region.
