Glutathione S-transferases from rainbow trout liver and freshly isolated hepatocytes: purification and characterization.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Glutathione S-transferases (GST) form an important family of biotransformation enzymes catalyzing the conjugation of glutathione to a great variety of xenobiotic compounds. The objective of this study was to compare the different characteristics of GST from freshly isolated rainbow trout hepatocytes with those corresponding to the total liver of the same fish, in order to establish the similarities. GST was purified by affinity chromatography and enzymatic activity was determined towards two substrates, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and ethacrynic acid (ETHA). The different isoenzymes were determined by HPLC associated with SDS-PAGE. Slight differences between the samples were obtained when the results corresponding to the enzyme activity were compared. HPLC results showed that all GST isoforms present in the total liver samples were represented in the isolated cells too, corresponding to isoforms with molecular masses of approximately 25.5 and 23.0 kDa.

At the present work, different groups of rainbow trouts have been intraperitoneally treated with a polychlorinated biphenyls commercial mixture (Arochlor-1254) at three doses (5, 20 and 70 mg PCBs/ kg body weight) and they have been sampled at 0 (injection moment), 3, 6 and 9 weeks after xenobiotic exposure. Purification and characterization of the cytosolic isoforms of glutathione S-transferas...
متن کاملThe purification of the hepatic glutathione S-transferases of rainbow trout by glutathione affinity chromatography alters their isoelectric behaviour.
1. The basic glutathione S-transferases from rainbow-trout liver were more stable than the acidic ones. 2. The apparent pI values of these enzymes were lowered when they were eluted from a glutathione affinity column by reduced glutathione at pH 8.85. 3. The pI effect was not a function of the high pH alone, was diminished under conditions less favourable to glutathione oxidation, and did not o...

In the present report, an efficient method for isolating multiple cytosolic forms of glutathione S-transferases from liver and kidney cytosolic samples of two salmonid species (brown trout and Atlantic salmon) is described, and some of the multiple properties of these enzymes are presented. Glutathione S-transferases were partially purified by low-pressure affinity chromatography on a column wi...
