Human glyoxalase I. cDNA cloning, expression, and sequence similarity to glyoxalase I from Pseudomonas putida.
Glyoxalase I (EC 4.4.1.5) catalyzes the transformation of methylglyoxal and glutathione to S-lactoylglutathione. We have isolated human cDNA clones encoding glyoxalase I from a phorbol myristate acetate-treated U937 cDNA library. This cDNA encodes a protein of 184 amino acids with a calculated M(r) of 20,719. The amino acid composition calculated from the deduced amino acid sequence agreed with...

متن کاملHeterologous expression of human prostatic acid phosphatase and site-directed mutagenesis of the enzyme active site.
Earlier covalent modification experiments indicated that histidine, arginine, and carboxylic acid residues were involved in the catalytic mechanism of the acid phosphatase enzyme from human prostate. The present study utilizes site-directed mutagenesis to evaluate the catalytic importance of 7 residues of human prostatic phosphatase, namely His12, His257, Asp258, Arg11, Arg15, Arg54, and Arg79,...
متن کاملPurification, cDNA cloning and heterologous expression of the human mitochondrial NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme.
Mitochondrial NADP(+)-dependent malic enzyme (ME; EC 1.1.1.39) has been purified to homogeneity and characterized kinetically from bovine heart. Partial amino acid sequence information allowed amplification of a specific bovine cDNA, which was used to isolate a full-length human cDNA of this isoform of ME. The cDNA is 1930 bp long and codes for a protein of 604 amino acids. Comparison of the am...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of human colon glyoxalase-I.
Glyoxalase-I cDNA clones were isolated from a human colon cDNA library using polyclonal antibodies raised against the protein purified from human colon tissue. Positive clones were purified, subcloned, and their nucleotide sequence determined. The glyoxalase-I cDNA encodes a 184-amino acid protein with a predicted molecular weight of 20,774, corresponding to the monomeric subunit weight of the ...
