Arginine Deiminase from Mycoplasma arthritidis
Hydrodynamic, chemical, and optical properties of arginine deiminase (EC 3.5.3.6) from Mycoplasma arthritidis are reported for the enzyme isolated from log phase cells. The s& +, and D’& values of the enzyme are 5.48 S and 5.87 x 10V7 cm’/s, respectively; the molecular weight is 87,300. Determination of the amino acid composition shows that about 45% of the residues are nonpolar. Another unique...
متن کاملGenome of Mycoplasma arthritidis.
The genomes of several species of mycoplasma have been sequenced. Most of these species rely on the glycolytic pathway for energy production, with the one exception of Ureaplasma, a species that breaks down urea as its principle source of acquiring energy. Several species, including as Mycoplasma arthritidis, are nonglycolytic and can use arginine as their source of energy. Described here are t...
متن کاملIdentification and purification of arginine deiminase that originated from Mycoplasma arginini.
A lymphocyte blastogenesis inhibitory factor, (LBIF), was purified from the culture supernatant of human histiocytic lymphoma U937 by fast protein liquid chromatography. In this study, we demonstrated, first, that LBIF originated from a mycoplasma, Mycoplasma arginini, infecting U937 cells, and second, that LBIF bore the arginine deiminase activity. The implication of in vivo immunosuppression ...
متن کاملApplication of three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships of P-glycoprotein inhibitors and substrates.
Using in vitro data, we previously built Catalyst 3-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D-QSAR) models that qualitatively rank and predict IC(50) values for P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors. These models were derived and tested with data for inhibition of digoxin transport, calcein accumulation, vinblastine accumulation, and vinblastine binding. In the present study, 16 i...
متن کاملCellular Activity of New Small Molecule Protein Arginine Deiminase 3 (PAD3) Inhibitors.
The protein arginine deiminases (PADs) catalyze the post-translational deimination of arginine side chains. Multiple PAD isozymes have been characterized, and abnormal PAD activity has been associated with several human disease states. PAD3 has been characterized as a modulator of cell growth via apoptosis inducing factor and has been implicated in the neurodegenerative response to spinal cord ...
