Solubilization of functional calcitonin receptors.
Calcitonin (CT) binding activity has been extracted from a membrane fraction of human placenta using the zwitterionic detergent, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulphonic acid (Chaps). Approximately two-thirds of the available binding sites were extracted using 5 mM-Chaps. The binding characteristics of 125I-labelled salmon CT(125I-sCT) to the solubilized extract were similar to...
متن کاملCalcitonin and calcitonin receptors Mini - review
Calcitonin (CT) is a polypeptide hormone with 32 aminoacids syntetized primarily by the thyroid. Several evidences support the existence of nonthyroidal CT like peptide. The CT gene transcript also encodes a distinct peptide known as calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) which is a potent vasodilator and responsible for the stimulation of the glomerular filtration rate. In addition, a 37 amino...
متن کاملHuman placental calcitonin receptors.
Receptors for the hypocalcaemic hormone, calcitonin (CT), have been identified in a membrane fraction prepared from term human placentae. Binding of 125I-labelled salmon CT (125I-sCT) to the membranes was time- and temperature-dependent, saturable (Bmax. 58 +/- 11 fmol/mg of protein), of high affinity (Kd 80 +/- 21 pM) and poorly reversible. Species-specific CTs and CT analogues competed for 12...
متن کاملSolubilization of adrenal medullary opioid receptors.
The opioid-binding activity of digitonin extract of bovine adrenal medullary membranes was studied. [3H]Diprenorphine binding to the solubilized material was rapid and saturable. The dissociation constant of [3H]diprenorphine binding was 0.76 nM. Several opioids displaced the [3H]diprenorphine binding. The complex of [3H]diprenorphine and the solubilized binding sites was eluted as a single pea...
متن کاملMembrane protein solubilization: recent advances and challenges in solubilization of serotonin1A receptors.
Solubilization of integral membrane proteins is a process in which the proteins and lipids that are held together in native membranes are suitably dissociated in a buffered detergent solution. The controlled dissociation of the membrane results in formation of small protein and lipid clusters that remain dissolved in the aqueous solution. Effective solubilization and purification of membrane pr...
