Soluble and cell wall bound γ-glutamyltransferases (GGTs) were purified from radish (Raphanus sativus L.) cotyledons. Soluble GGTs (GGT I and II) had the same Mr of 63,000, and were composed of a heavy subunit (Mr, 42,000) and a light one (Mr, 21,000). The properties of GGT I and II were similar. Bound GGTs (GGT A and B) were purified to homogeneity from the pellet after the extraction of soluble GGTs. GGT A and B were monomeric proteins with an Mr of 61,000. The properties of GGT A and B were similar. Thus, bound GGTs were distinguished from soluble GGTs. The optimal pHs of soluble and bound GGTs were about 7.5. Both soluble and bound GGTs utilized glutathione, γ-L-glutamyl-p-nitroanilide, oxidized glutathione and the conjugate of glutathione with monobromobimane as substrates, and were inhibited by acivicin, but soluble GGTs were also distinguished from bound GGTs with regard to these properties.
从萝卜(Raphanus sativus L.)子叶中纯化得到了可溶性和细胞壁结合型γ-谷
氨酰转移酶(GGTs)。可溶性GGTs(GGT I和II)具有相同的分子量63,000,由重亚基(分子量42,000)和轻亚基(分子量21,000)组成。GGT I和II的性质相似。结合型GGTs(GGT A和B)在提取可溶性GGTs后的沉淀中纯化至均一。GGT A和B是单体蛋白,分子量为61,000。GGT A和B的性质相似。因此,结合型GGT与可溶性GGT有所区别。可溶性和结合型GGT的最适pH约为7.5。可溶性和结合型GGT均以
谷胱甘肽、γ-L-谷
氨酰-对
硝基苯胺、氧化型
谷胱甘肽及与单
溴联苯胺结合的
谷胱甘肽为底物,并受aciverin抑制,但在这些性质上,可溶性GGT与结合型GGT亦有所区别。
