The gene structure of starch phosphorylase from sweet potato.
a-Glucan phosphorylases are of key importance among the enzymes controlling the entry of storage polysaccharides into the glycolytic pathway in microbes, animals, and plants. The enzymes catalyze the reversible phosphorolysis of cu-l,4-glucosidic linkages in glucan substrates. Among SP from higher plants, those from potato are best studied. They are classified into L and H types depending on th...
متن کاملStarch phosphorylase inhibitor from sweet potato.
A protein, starch phosphorylase inhibitor, was purified from the root of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam. cv Tainon 65). It had a molecular weight of 250,000 and could be composed of five identical subunits. The isoelectric point of the inhibitor was 4.63. It was a noncompetitive inhibitor toward the sweet potato enzyme with a K(i) value of 1.3 x 10(-6) molar when glucose-1-P was the var...
متن کاملStarch Phosphorylase of Potato
Cori and his colleagues (l-6) discovered and elucidated the series of reversible chemical reactions by which glucose is transformed into glycogen in animal tissues. These reactions are catalyzed by a group of enzymes, the most fundamental of which is phosphorylase, the enzyme which catalyzes the condensation of glucose-l-phosphate (Cori ester) to starch or glycogen. The properties of phosphoryl...
متن کاملRegulation of the catalytic behaviour of L-form starch phosphorylase from sweet potato roots by proteolysis.
Starch phosphorylase (SP) is an enzyme used for the reversible phosphorolysis of the alpha-glucan in plant cells. When compared to its isoform in an animal cell, glycogen phosphorylase, a peptide containing 78 amino acids (L78) is inserted in the centre of the low-affinity type starch phosphorylase (L-SP). We found that the amino acid sequence of L78 had several interesting features including t...
متن کاملPrimary structure of the neutralization antigen of simian rotavirus SA11 as deduced from cDNA sequence.
DNA sequences complementary to the double-stranded RNA coding for the neutralization antigen (glycoprotein VP7) of simian rotavirus SA11 have been cloned. The VP7 gene consists of 1,062 nucleotides, containing an uninterrupted coding sequence of 978 nucleotides which specifies a glycoprotein of 326 amino acids. The significance of a second possible initiation site 30 nucleotides downstream from...
