Correction of the amino acid sequences of erabutoxins from the venom of the sea snake Laticauda semifasciata.

Project description:The amino acid sequences of erabutoxins a and b were reinvestigated. The previously reported sequences of Gln-His at positions 6 and 7, and of Pro-Ser at positions 18 and 19 of erabutoxins a and b were corrected to His-Gln and Ser-Pro respectively.

Partial amino acid sequence of rat pre-prolactin.

Project description:Rat pituitary mRNA was used to direct the cell-free synthesis of pre-prolactin labelled with [4,5-3H]leucine and either [35S] methioninc or [35S] cystine. Sequence analysis of the labelled protein indicates that pre-prolactin has 29 amino acid residues joined to the N-terminus of the prolactin sequence. Leucine residues were found at positions 13, 14, 15, 16, 21 and 22, methionine residues at positions 1, 17 and 18, and a cysteine residue at position 24 of the precursor sequence, and this partial sequence shows considerable similarity with other precursors that have been sequenced.

A partial amino acid sequence for sheep haemoblogin A.

Project description:Amino acid analysis and terminal-group analysis of tryptic and chymotryptic peptides from sheep haemoglobin A have enabled a partial amino acid sequence to be worked out. By comparing this partial sequence with the known amino acid sequences of human haemoglobins A and F as well as horse slow haemoglobin the most probable sequence of sheep haemoglobin has been deduced.

Purification, characterization and partial amino acid sequence of glycogen synthase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:Glycogen synthase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme showed a subunit molecular mass of 80 kDa. The holoenzyme appears to be a tetramer. Antibodies developed against purified yeast glycogen synthase inactivated the enzyme in yeast extracts and allowed the detection of the protein in Western blots. Amino acid analysis showed that the enzyme is very rich in glutamate and/or glutamine residues. The N-terminal sequence (11 amino acid residues) was determined. In addition, selected tryptic-digest peptides were purified by reverse-phase h.p.l.c. and submitted to gas-phase sequencing. Up to eight sequences (79 amino acid residues) could be aligned with the human muscle enzyme sequence. Levels of identity range between 37 and 100%, indicating that, although human and yeast glycogen synthases probably share some conserved regions, significant differences in their primary structure should be expected.

The amino acid sequences of erabutoxins, neurotoxic proteins of sea-snake (Laticauda semifasciata) venom.

Project description:1. Erabutoxin b was reduced, S-carboxymethylated and hydrolysed with trypsin. Seven tryptic fragments were isolated by column chromatography and paper electrophoresis. Some of the fragments were further hydrolysed with alpha-chymotrypsin, pepsin, Nagarse, Proctase A or Proctase B. The amino acid sequences of the fragment peptides were determined by subtractive Edman degradation. 2. From the tryptic digest of reduced, S-carboxymethylated and trifluoroacetylated erabutoxin b two fragments were isolated. From the amino acid composition of the fragments and from the terminal sequence studies on the reduced and S-carboxymethylated erabutoxin b, the sequence of the above seven tryptic fragments was elucidated. 3. The tryptic digestion of reduced and S-carboxymethylated erabutoxin a gave fragments, only one of which was different from the corresponding fragment from erabutoxin b. The amino acid sequence analysis of the fragment peptide showed that the only difference between erabutoxins a and b was that the former had asparagine and the latter had histidine at position 26.

Partial amino acid sequence of human pancreatic stone protein, a novel pancreatic secretory protein.

Project description:Pancreatic stone protein (PSP) is the major organic component of human pancreatic stones. With the use of monoclonal antibody immunoadsorbents, five immunoreactive forms (PSP-S) with close Mr values (14,000-19,000) were isolated from normal pancreatic juice. By CM-Trisacryl M chromatography the lowest-Mr form (PSP-S1) was separated from the others and some of its molecular characteristics were investigated. The Mr of the PSP-S1 polypeptide chain calculated from the amino acid composition was about 16,100. The N-terminal sequences (40 residues) of PSP and PSP-S1 are identical, which suggests that the peptide backbone is the same for both of these polypeptides. The PSP-S1 sequence was determined up to residue 65 and was found to be different from all other known protein sequences.

Rational 'correction' of the amino-acid sequence of RbcX protein from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus dramatically improves crystallization.

Project description:RbcX is a dimeric protein found in cyanobacteria that assists in the assembly of the oligomeric RuBisCO complex. RbcX from the thermophile Thermosynechococcus elongatus (TeRbcX) contains an unusual Cys103 residue in its sequence and when expressed recombinantly the protein aggregates and cannot be crystallized. Site-directed mutagenesis of Cys103 to either Arg or Ala produced non-aggregating proteins that could be readily crystallized in several crystal forms. Synchrotron-radiation X-ray diffraction data were collected to 1.96 A resolution and formed the basis of crystal structure analysis of TeRbcX.

Heterodimeric l-amino acid oxidase enzymes from Egyptian Cerastes cerastes venom: Purification, biochemical characterization and partial amino acid sequencing.

Project description:Two l-amino acid oxidase enzyme isoforms, Cc-LAAOI and Cc-LAAOII were purified to apparent homogeneity from Cerastes cerastes venom in a sequential two-step chromatographic protocol including; gel filtration and anion exchange chromatography. The native molecular weights of the isoforms were 115 kDa as determined by gel filtration on calibrated Sephacryl S-200 column, while the monomeric molecular weights of the enzymes were, 60, 56 kDa and 60, 53 kDa for LAAOI and LAAOII, respectively. The tryptic peptides of the two isoforms share high sequence homology with other snake venom l-amino acid oxidases. The optimal pH and temperature values of Cc-LAAOI and Cc-LAAOII were 7.8, 50 °C and 7, 60 °C, respectively. The two isoenzymes were thermally stable up to 70 °C. The K m and V max values were 0.67 mM, 0.135 ?mol/min for LAAOI and 0.82 mM, 0.087 ?mol/min for LAAOII. Both isoenzymes displayed high catalytic preference to long-chain, hydrophobic and aromatic amino acids. The Mn2 + ion markedly increased the LAAO activity for both purified isoforms, while Na+, K+, Ca2 +, Mg2 + and Ba2 + ions showed a non-significant increase in the enzymatic activity of both isoforms. Furthermore, Zn2 +, Ni2 +, Co2 +, Cu2 + and AL3 + ions markedly inhibited the LAAOI and LAAOII activities. l-Cysteine and reduced glutathione completely inhibited the LAAO activity of both isoenzymes, whereas, ?-mercaptoethanol, O-phenanthroline and PMSF completely inhibited the enzymatic activity of LAAOII. Furthermore, iodoacitic acid inhibited the enzymatic activity of LAAOII by 46% and had no effect on the LAAOI activity.

Universal correction of enzymatic sequence bias

Project description:Coupling molecular biology to high throughput sequencing has revolutionized the study of biology. Molecular genomics techniques are continually refined to provide higher resolution mapping of nucleic acid interactions and nucleic acid structure. These assays are converging on single-nucleotide resolution measurements, but the sequence preferences of molecular biology enzymes can interfere with the accurate interpretation of the data. Enzymatic sequence preferences manifest more prominently as the resolution of these assays increase. We developed seqOutBias to seek out enzymatic sequence bias from experimental data and scale individual sequence reads to correct the bias. We show that this software efficiently and successfully corrects the sequence bias resulting from DNase-seq, TACh-seq, ATAC-seq, MNase-seq, and PRO-seq data.
