Amino acid sequence analysis of the cyanogen bromide peptides of potato alpha-glucan phosphorylase was undertaken for comparison with rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase and for elucidation of the structural bases for the differences in the catalytic and regulatory properties between the animal and

Solanidine UDP-glucose glucosyltransferase (SGT) is involved in the biosynthesis of steroidal glycoalkaloids in potatoes. This enzyme is present at an extremely low level, is inherently unstable, and copurifies with the major storage protein patatin during isolation. We describe an improved method

We analyzed extensively a modified thiochrome method for thiamin analysis. Acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) from potato was superior to either alpha-amylase or acid phosphatase from wheat germ as a dephosphorylating agent. Timing of cyanogen bromide exposure was important, but the assay had good

The complete amino acid sequence of a subunit of sweet potato beta-amylase, a homotetramer, was established by sequence analysis of peptides obtained by digestions with Achromobacter protease I and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease and by cyanogen bromide cleavage of the S-carboxymethylated subunit.

The amino acid sequence of a cathepsin D inhibitor isolated from potato is described. It was determined by analysis of peptides generated by use of the glycine-specific proteinase PPIV. The order of the peptides was established by examination of tryptic peptides derived from the two cyanogen bromide

The amino acid sequence of subunit A of the potato chymotryptic inhibitor I was determined. The sequence was deduced from analysis of fragments and peptides derived from the protein by cleavage with cyanogen bromide, N-bromosuccinimide and dilute acid, and by digestion with trypsin, thermolysin,

Cathepsin H was purified by a single-step affinity chromatographic method from crude human kidney extract. The affinity medium consisted of low-molecular-mass cysteine proteinase inhibitors from potato tubers (PCPIs) coupled to cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose. The yield of the method is

LUTI (Linum usitatissimum trypsin inhibitor), a member of the potato inhibitor I family, has been isolated from seeds of flax by ethanol fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex C-25, affinity purification on immobilized methylchymotrypsin (alpha-chymotrypsin in which His57 has been
