A sensitive and reliable method for the determination of hypusine and deoxyhypusine in eIF-5A protein, an initiation factor of protein synthesis, was developed. An advantage of this method is the use of Nε-(5-aminopentyl) lysine, an analogue of deoxyhypusine, as an internal standard. The application made it possible to determine hypusine in less than a mg of protein samples from cultured HTC cells and rat organs. After acid hydrolysis of protein samples to which had been added the internal standard, the hydrolysates were fractionated by carboxymethyl cellulose column chromatography. Also, diamine fractions containing a few pmol of hypusine and deoxyhypusine were successfully analyzed by a reversed phase HPLC with a fluorescence detection of o-phthalaldehyde. The method was applied for the determination of hypusine and deoxyhypusine in drug-treated HTC cells and normal rat organs. The results from HTC cells were discussed based on the known effects of each drug on hypusine biosynthesis.
本研究建立了一种灵敏可靠的方法,用于测定蛋白质合成起始因子 eIF-5A 蛋白中的次碱和脱氧次碱。该方法的优点是使用 Nε-(5-氨基戊基)赖氨酸(脱氧羽扇豆碱的类似物)作为内标物。这一应用使得从培养的 HTC 细胞和大鼠器官中检测不到一毫克蛋白质样品中的次碱成为可能。在对添加了内标物的蛋白质样品进行酸水解后,水解物通过羧甲基纤维素柱色谱法进行分馏。此外,通过反相高效液相色谱法和邻苯二甲醛荧光检测法,成功地分析了含有几pmol次碱和脱氧次碱的二胺馏分。该方法被用于测定药物处理的 HTC 细胞和正常大鼠器官中的次碱和脱氧次碱。根据每种药物对次碱生物合成的已知影响,对来自 HTC 细胞的结果进行了讨论。
