Contribution of disulfide bonds to the conformational stability and catalytic activity of ribonuclease A.
Disulfide bonds between the side chains of cysteine residues are the only common crosslinks in proteins. Bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) is a 124-residue enzyme that contains four interweaving disulfide bonds (Cys26-Cys84, Cys40-Cys95, Cys58-Cys110, and Cys65-Cys72) and catalyzes the cleavage of RNA. The contribution of each disulfide bond to the conformational stability and catalyti...
متن کاملA synapomorphic disulfide bond is critical for the conformational stability and cytotoxicity of an amphibian ribonuclease.
Onconase((R)) (ONC) is a homolog of ribonuclease A (RNase A) that has unusually high conformational stability and is toxic to human cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. ONC and its amphibian homologs have a C-terminal disulfide bond, which is absent in RNase A. Replacing this cystine with a pair of alanine residues greatly decreases the conformational stability of ONC. In addition, the C87A/C104A...
متن کاملcontribution of setting to the study of characters and the main idea in e. brontes: wuthering heights and t. hardys: return of the native.
this thesis aims to adduce an unmitigated and comprehensive explication concerning the relationship of three significant elements of fiction: setting, chracter and theme. my research is basically placed on two outstanding novels of the 19th century: emily brontes wuthering heights and thomas hardys return of the native. my endeavour lies in studying the correlation among the three above-mention...
15 صفحه اولContribution of disulfide bonds and calcium to Molluscan hemocyanin stability.
Disulfide bonds and calcium ions contribute significantly to the stability of the hemocyanin from the mollusc Rapana thomasiana grosse (gastropod). An extremely powerful protective effect of Ca2+ at a concentration of 100 mM (100% protection) against the destructive effect of reductants like dithiothreitol was observed. This is important for the practical application of molluscan hemocyanins in...
متن کاملSynthesis of Zinc Dimethyldithiocarbamate by Reductive Disulfide Bond Cleavage of Tetramethylthiuram Disulfide in Presence of Zn2+
The zinc(II) complex [Zn2(dmdtc)2(μ-dmdtc)2] has been synthesized directly from thiram ligand, containing a disulfide bond {dmdtc = N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamate; thiram = N,N-tetramethylthiuram disulfide}, and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. Surprisingly thiram, undergoes a reductive disulfide bond scission upon reaction with Zn2+ in methanolic media to give the [Z...
