Molecular-weight estimates of milk-fat-globule-membrane protein-sodium dodecyl sulphate complexes by electrophoresis in gradient acrylamide gels.

ABSTRACT: The molecular weights of milk-fat-globule-membrane proteins solubilized in sodium dodecyl sulphate were estimated by gradient gel electrophoresis. Standard curves were calibrated from both protein and glycoprotein markers of known molecular weight. Six major proteins were observed with Coomassie Blue staining and six with periodic acid-Schiff staining. The behaviour of the membrane proteins and the marker proteins was compared on several different single strength sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gels between 3 and 12% (w/v). The results were used to calculate the free electrophoretic mobility and retardation coefficient of each protein. Glycoprotein markers had a significantly lower mean free electrophoretic-mobility value than the protein markers. Three of the milk-fat-globule-membrane glycoproteins were shown to be independent of any of the Coomassie Blue-stained bands. On the basis of a comparison of the free electrophoretic-mobility and retardation- coefficient values of markers and unknown proteins the most appropriate standard curve for molecular-weight estimation was chosen.

The identification of rat intestinal membrane enzymes after electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:Brush-border membranes were isolated from the rat small intestine and then treated with sodium dodecyl sulphate under non-reducing conditions at room temperature. Analysis of the solubilized components by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis identified three major glycoproteins that co-migrate with glucoamylase-maltase-sucrase, lactase and isomaltase-maltase-sucrase activities. High activities of alkaline phosphatase and trehalase were detectable, but they could not be attributed to distinct co-migrating protein bands. Analysis of mucosa from the distal small intestine by the same methods showed a pattern of bands different from that obtained with the proximal intestine, which appeared to correlate with the relative deficiency of some of the enzymes in the distal region.

Detection of xanthine oxidase and immunologically related proteins in fractions from bovine mammary tissue and milk after electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:A solid-phase immunoassay was used to detect xanthine oxidase in fractions from bovine mammary glands after electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. Under these conditions the major proportion of xanthine oxidase in either mammary tissue or mild could be recovered as a protein of mol.wt. 150 000. In mammary tissue approx. 80% of the enzyme was in a soluble form and the remainder was accounted for in either 'mitochondrial' or microsomal fractions after tissue homogenization and fractionation. Affinity chromatography of either detergent-solubilized microsomal membranes or postmicrosomal supernatants on immobilized antibody to xanthine oxidase yielded a single protein that cross-reacted with antibody to the enzyme. In milk presumptive degradation products of the enzyme were detected in minor quantities with mol.wts. of 43 000 in the whey fraction and 90 000 in fat-globule membrane. Only the undegraded enzyme was present in the skim-milk membrane fraction. Xanthine oxidase is therefore synthesized and secreted as a protein with a monomeric mol.wt. of 150 000 and is not subjected to extensive proteolytic degradation during the storage of milk in mammary alveoli. The significance of the results is discussed in relation to the overall protein composition of the membranes of milk-fat globules and skim milk.

A method for the preparation of low-pH dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gradient gels.

Project description:1. A low-pH lithium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gradient slab-gel system, suitable for electrophoresis, is described, and the migration properties of standard proteins are compared on this and conventional high-pH gels. 2. Cytochrome oxidase may be partially resolved into its component polypeptides. The order of migration of these is, however, dependent on the pH of the gel system.

Anomalous migration of leghaemoglobin on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis.

Project description:The estimate of the molecular weight of leghaemoglobin by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis is about 20% too low. This is due to an anomalously high limiting relative mobility. Leghaemoglobin binds 1.4 g of sodium dodecyl sulphate/g of protein with a concomitant decrease in the helical content from 71-72% to 49-51%.

Highly purified agarose as stacking gel in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis.

Project description:A modified sodium dodecyl sulphage/polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoretic method is described that utilizes highly purified agarose as stacking gel. The same electrophoretic resolution of different marker proteins is found as when polyacrylamide is used as stacking gel, but the background staining seen when polyacrylamide is used as stacking gel is decreased.

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.

Cyanogen bromide cleavage of proteins in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels. Diagonal peptide mapping of proteins from epidermis.

Project description:A two-dimensional electrophoretic procedure employing CNBr has been devised for the analysis of proteins in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels. The technique allows the detection of an unusual class of epidermal proteins that lack methionine. The proteins have been identified by this method in newborn mouse, rat, and rabbit, because they are stable in the presence of CNBr and consequently lie on a diagonal. Adult human epidermis also contains CNBr-stable proteins, but in lesser amounts than in the newborn rabbit or newborn rodents. The methionine-containing proteins (i.e., the keratins) are degraded by CNBr into a series of unique and characteristics peptides which lie below the diagonal. Inter- and intra-species similarities and differences exist between the individual keratins, depending on the number and distribution of their methionine residues. The peptide-map patterns for the rodent and lagomorph proteins are more similar to each other than to that for the human proteins. The maps for rat and rabbit skin proteins are the most similar. We conclude that the epidermal keratins are a closely related, yet individually distinct, group of proteins that are found in conjunction with a class of proteins that lack methionine. The latter proteins are related to the histidine-rich basic protein, an epidermal structural protein that aggregates with keratin filaments.

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.

Pathway for unfolding of ubiquitin in sodium dodecyl sulfate, studied by capillary electrophoresis.

Project description:This paper characterizes the complexes formed by a small protein, ubiquitin (UBI), and a negatively charged surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), using capillary electrophoresis (CE), circular dichroism (CD), and amide hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX; as monitored by mass spectroscopy, MS). Capillary electrophoresis of complexes of UBI and SDS, at apparent equilibrium, at concentrations of SDS ranging from sub-micellar and sub-denaturing to micellar and denaturing, revealed multiple complexes of UBI and SDS of the general composition UBI-SDS(n). Examination of electrophoretic mobilities of complexes of UBI and SDS as a function of the concentration of SDS provided a new way to characterize the interaction of this protein with SDS and established key characteristics of this system: e.g., the reversibility of the formation of the complexes, their approximate chemical compositions, and the pathway of SDS binding to UBI. The work identified, in addition to SDS-saturated UBI, at least six groups of complexes of UBI with SDS, within which four groups were populated with complexes of distinct stoichiometries: UBI-SDS(approximately 11), UBI-SDS(approximately 25), UBI-SDS(approximately 33), and UBI-SDS(approximately 42). CD spectroscopy and amide HDX of the UBI-SDS(n) complexes suggested that many of the UBI-SDS(n) complexes (n > 11) have greater alpha-helical content than native UBI. Capillary electrophoresis provides a level of detail about interactions of proteins and SDS that has not previously been accessible, and CE is an analytical and biophysical method for studies of interactions of proteins and surfactants that is both convenient and practical. This study sheds light on the formation of the enigmatic protein-SDS complexes formed during SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and brings a new tool to the study of proteins and detergents.

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.
