Photoinactivation of aspartate aminotransferase.
The cofactor pyridoxal 5’-phosphate bound through an aldimine linkage to lysine residues of the enzyme aspartate amiuotransferase is very stable to irradiation with light of 420 nm. The catalytic function of the enzyme exposed to light absorbed by the cofactor remains unaffected, indicating that pyridoxal 5’-phosphate is not an efficient active site photosensitizer for this aminotransferase. Th...
متن کاملAcylation of aspartate aminotransferase.
1. Acetylation of aspartate aminotransferase from pig heart inhibits completely the enzymic activity when the coenzyme is in the amino form (pyridoxamine phosphate) or when the coenzyme has been removed, but not when the coenzyme is in the aldehyde form (pyridoxal phosphate). 2. The group the acylation of which is responsible for the inhibition has been identified with the in-amino group of a l...
متن کاملAspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from trichomonas vaginalis. Identity of aspartate aminotransferase and aromatic amino acid aminotransferase.
Aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase from the anaerobic protozoon Trichomonas vaginalis was purified to homogeneity and characterized. It is a dimeric protein of overall Mr approx. 100000. Only a single isoenzyme was found in T. vaginalis. The overall molecular and catalytic properties have features in common with both the vertebrate cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isoenzymes. The purified ...
متن کاملRefolding of the precursor and mature forms of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase after guanidine hydrochloride denaturation.
The mitochondrial isozyme of aspartate aminotransferase (mAspAT), a dimeric pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme, is encoded by the nuclear genome and synthesized in the cytoplasm as a precursor protein (pmAspAT) containing a 29-residue amino-terminal signal peptide which is essential for its targeting and import into mitochondria. In the cytosolic-like environment of rabbit reticulocyte ...
