Aspartokinase from wheat germ: isolation, characterization, and regulation.
Aspartokinase has been isolated from wheat germ and a preliminary survey made of its properties in a partially purified extract. The enzyme has an absolute requirement for ATP and a divalent metal ion. The phosphate donor can be either ATP or GTP, but other nucleotides are ineffective. Both magnesium and manganese will activate the enzyme, whereas calcium shows a trace amount of activity. The e...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of an RNA ligase from HeLa cells.
An RNA ligase has been purified from HeLa cells, which catalyzes the intra- and intermolecular ligation of linear RNA substrates possessing 5'-hydroxyl and 2',3'-cyclic phosphate termini in the presence of ATP or dATP. In this reaction, the 2',3'-cyclic phosphate is incorporated into a 3'-5'-phosphodiester bond, in agreement with the findings of Filipowicz et al. [Filipowicz, W., Konarska, M., ...
متن کاملCell-free circularization of viroid progeny RNA by an RNA ligase from wheat germ.
Linear, potato spindle tuber viroid RNA has been used as a substrate for an RNA ligase purified from wheat germ. Linear viroid molecules are efficiently converted to circular molecules (circles) which are indistinguishable by electrophoretic mobility and two-dimensional oligonucleotide pattern from viroid circles extracted from infected plants. In light of recent evidence for multimeric viroid ...
متن کاملMethionine-tRNA-ligase from wheat germ: purification and properties.
Methionine-t RNA-ligase (AMP) EC 6.1.1.10, from various prokaryotic organisms has been extensively studied since it has been found to catalyse the aminoacylation of tRNAsMef, thus contributing to the incorporation of methionine at both initiation and elongation steps of protein chains synthesis. Similarly, two different eukaryotic tRNAsMet, especially in plant cytoplasm are required for methion...
متن کاملIsolation and properties of the carboxylase of wheat germ.
The catalytic r81e of thiaminoproteins in intermediary carbohydrate metabolism has long been recognized. Although numerous theories have been advanced to explain the chemical mechanism by which the diphosphothiamine (DPT) moiety of thiaminoproteins contributes to the catalytic properties of these enzymes, the modus operandi of DPT has remained unsolved. Perhaps the main reason for this has been...
