Uteroferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein, which is abundantly synthesized in porcine uterine glandular endometrium and believed to be involved in maternal/fetal iron transport. In the present study, uteroferrin has been cloned and functionally expressed using baculovirus-infected insect host
Protein derived from purple wheat bran was hydrolyzed sequentially using alcalase proteases for the production of antioxidant peptides. Purple wheat bran protein (PWBP) hydrolysates were fractionated using size-exclusion (G-25) and ion-exchange chromatography methods to identify the structure of
Within 48 h of the addition of 2.5 mM phosphate (HPO42-, Pi) or phosphite (H2PO3-, Phi) to 8-day-old Pi-starved (-Pi) tomato suspension cells: (i) secreted and intracellular purple acid phosphatase (PAP) activities decreased by about 12- and 6-fold, respectively and (ii) immunoreactive PAP
Purple corn (Zea mays L.) is a rich and economic source of anthocyanin colorants and functional ingredients. However, high levels of anthocyanin-rich waste are generated during processing, reducing the yields and increasing the costs of the final product. This waste has been associated with
Purple membrane was regenerated from the denatured proteolytic (protease V8) fragments V-1 and V-2 of bacteriorhodopsin (BR), native membrane lipids, and all-trans-retinal. FTIR difference spectra of M and N intermediates of the reconstituted system are in close correspondence to those obtained from
BACKGROUND
Hydrolysates prepared from sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus nudus) gonad by enzymatic treatment showed strong 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity and reducing power.
RESULTS
Hydrolysis of S. nudus gonad by the commercial protease papain was optimised for maximum degree
By using space series to replace time series, this paper studied the relationships between the vegetation characteristics and soil properties at different restoration stages on the slope land with purple soils in Hengyang of Hunnan Province South-central China. There existed obvious differences in
A method is described for amplification of bands generated by chromogenic substrates following their reaction with proteases within electrophoretic gels. Chromogenic substrates, consisting of synthetic peptides containing the chromophore 4-nitroaniline (paranitroaniline, PNA), are applied directly
Staphylococcus aureus protease V8 cleaves bacteriorhodopsin to two main fragments, V-1 and V-2. Proteolytic digestion of the purple membrane integrated protein is carried out in the presence of limited amounts of sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.5 g detergent/g bacteriorhodopsin). The fragment V-1 includes
This work describes the engineering of a feasible, sensitive, and specific colorimetric assay for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) extracellular protease production, using a tailored agar-based readout platform. Firstly, S. aureus protease production was evaluated using different
The purple leaf pigmentation mainly associated with anthocyanins accumulation is common in Brassica but the mechanisms of its production and its potential physiological functions are poorly understood. Here, we performed the phenotypic, cytological, physiological, and comparative leaves
Treatment of the purple membrane with carboxypeptidase A, Pronase, or papain, results in the cleavage of amino acids from the carboxyl terminus of bacteriorhodopsin, a maximum of about 17 amino acids being released with papain. Protease-treated bacteriorhodopsin, after denaturation, refolds to the
Removal of the COOH-terminal region of bacteriorhodopsin by digestion with trypsin or papain reduces the yield of light-induced H+ release by 50-70%. The rate of H+ release is not affected significantly, but the half time of H+ uptake increases almost twofold. However, there is no effect on the
One-bead-one-compound (OBOC) combinatorial library screening has been broadly utilized for the last two decades to identify small molecules, peptides or peptidomimetics targeting variable screening probes such as cell surface receptors, bacteria, protein kinases, phosphatases, proteases etc. In
A new hydrophobic heterobifunctional photocrosslinking reagent 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3-(m-isothiocyanophenyl)diazirine (TRIMID), a carbene precursor, and its radioiodinated analogue [125I]TRIMID, have been synthesized and chemically characterized. The reagents were applied for membrane protein
