Purification and Characterization of an w Protein from Micrococcus luteus*
An w protein capable of a concerted breaking and rejoining of DNA backbone bonds has been purified from Micrococcus luteus to homogeneity. The protein is a single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 120,000. It catalyzes the removal of superhelical turns from a highly negatively twisted DNA efficiently. The reaction requires Mg2+. In a medium containing 0.1 M K+, the enzyme acts in distribut...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of antiviral protein from silkworm fecal matter
Antiviral proteins (AVP), present in silkworm fecal matter, show activity against nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV) in vitro and in vivo. The extract of silkworm fecal matter prepared in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.5 was subjected to 50% solid ammonium sulfate precipitation to enrich AVP, then which was dialyzed. The dialysate was applied to the column containing silica gel-G, the column e...
متن کاملDNA-relaxing enzyme from Micrococcus luteus.
A DNA-relaxing enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of superhelical DNA to a non-superhelical covalently closed form has been purified from Micrococcus luteus to near homogeneity by two chromatographic steps. The enzyme is a single polypeptide chain. As determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration on Sephadex G 150, the molecular weight is 115,00...
متن کاملUracil-DNA glycosylase. Purification and properties of uracil-DNA glycosylase from Micrococcus luteus.
A uracil-DNA-glycosylase from Micrococcus luteus has been purified more than 3,000-fold. The enzyme preparation appears homogeneous, according to the results of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It is devoid of nonspecific endonucleases, specific endonucleases for apurinic and apyrimidinic sites, 3-methyladenine or 7-methylguanine-DNA-glycosylases. It behaves as a monom...
متن کاملBiochemical properties of penicillin amidohydrolase from Micrococcus luteus.
Some biochemical properties of whole-cell penicillin amidohydrolase from Micrococcus luteus have been studied. This whole-cell enzyme showed its maximal activity at 36 degrees C at pH 7.5. It was found that the activation energy of this enzyme was 8.03 kcal (ca. 33.6 kJ) per mol, and this amidohydrolase showed first-order decay at 36 degrees C. The penicillin amidohydrolase was deactivated rapi...
