Substrate-leash amplification with ribonuclease S-peptide and S-protein.
The S-peptide and S-protein fragments of ribonuclease S (RNase S, no EC no. assigned) have been immobilized onto separate Sepharose gels via a "leash" of polycytidylic acid substrate. Each of these gels releases its RNase fragment when treated with the complementary enzyme fragment or with RNase A (EC 3.1.27.5), and the released fragments recombine to give RNase S activity. Thus this system pro...
متن کاملRibonuclease S-peptide as a carrier in fusion proteins.
S-peptide (residues 1-20) and S-protein (residues 21-124) are the enzymatically inactive products of the limited digestion of ribonuclease A by subtilisin. S-peptide binds S-protein with high affinity to form ribonuclease S, which has full enzymatic activity. Recombinant DNA technology was used to produce a fusion protein having three parts: carrier, spacer, and target. The two carriers used we...
متن کاملStudies on Ribonuclease S. I. Limited Carboxypeptidase Degradation of Ribonuclease S-protein and Ribonuclease S-peptide: Effects of Changes in Primary Structure on Enzymic Activity.
Specific regions of the polypeptide sequence of pancreatic ribonuclease have been altered by chemical modification and by limited proteolytic digestion in attempts to implicate specific covalent portions of the molecule in the structure and stabilization of the active center. Digestion of the native molecule with trypsin at elevated temperatures has been shown to remove portions of the chain wi...
متن کاملMolecular recognition between Escherichia coli enolase and ribonuclease E
In Escherichia coli and many other bacterial species, the glycolytic enzyme enolase is a component of the multi-enzyme RNA degradosome, an assembly that is involved in RNA processing and degradation. Enolase is recruited into the degradosome through interactions with a small recognition motif located within the degradosome-scaffolding domain of RNase E. Here, the crystal structure of enolase bo...
متن کاملStructural and thermodynamic consequences of introducing alpha-aminoisobutyric acid in the S peptide of ribonuclease S.
The S protein-S peptide interaction is a model system to study binding thermodynamics in proteins. We substituted alanine at position 4 in S peptide by alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) to investigate the effect of this substitution on the conformation of free S peptide and on its binding to S protein. The thermodynamic consequences of this replacement were studied using isothermal titration cal...
