Microvillus Membrane

Microscopical studies showed that initial differentiation of the guinea-pig small intestine occurs between days 35 and 55 of foetal development. Changes observed at this time include formation of villi (by day 42), elaboration of submucosal duodenal Brunner's glands (by day 49) and the appearance of a well-developed microvillus membrane (by day 56). Different microvillus membrane-associated hydrolases appear at different stages of foetal and postnatal development. The ‘early’ enzymes such as aminopeptidase, alkaline phosphatase and sucrase show a sharp increase and reach their maximal levels between days 35 and 50, whereas the late enzymes such as dipeptidyl peptidase IV and lactase increase gradually between days 35 and 50, and reach maximal activity between days 50 and 60. A combination of techniques involving precipitation with Mg2+ followed by fractionation on sucrose density gradients has enabled us to prepare, for the first time, a 21-fold enriched microvillus membrane fraction from the foetal intestine. Polypeptide analysis of this membrane fraction by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the presence of developmentally specific polypeptides at different stages of foetal and postnatal development. Three polypeptides of molecular weights 205 000, 80 000 and 47 000 are major microvillus membrane components at the 40-day foetal stage. Two other polypeptides of molecular weights 60 000 and 131 000 are major microvillar components at 56-day and older foetal stages as well as at the 3-day neonatal stage. The adult microvillus membrane contained 112 000 and 122 000 Mr polypeptides as major components. The above results were confirmed using two-dimensional isoelectric focussing-sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic techniques.

Molecular Weights

The structural polypeptides of the cholera bacteriophage [Formula: see text] have been analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Eight different polypeptides were identified. The apparent molecular weights of the polypeptides were 143 000, 96 500, 68 000, 53 000, 37 500, 29 500, 21 000, and 13 500, respectively. The percentage of total protein corresponding to each polypeptide was estimated.

<em>Bahan<strong> </strong>baku untuk membuat baso adalah daging hewan, pada umumnya dari daging sapi, ayam, ikan dan babi. Di beberapa daerah di Indonesia terjadi kasus baso tikus. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menguji ada tidaknya kandungan daging tikus pada produk baso yang dijual di pasar Cempaka Putih-Kecamatan Kramat Jakarta Pusat dan di pedagang baso atau mie baso di sekitar kampus Universitas YARSI Jakarta. Daging adalah protein salah satu metode untuk mengidentifikasi protein adalah metode Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).<strong> </strong>Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 6 sampel baso terindikasi ada 2 sampel baso dengan nomor 1 dan 5 yang dibuat dari campuran daging sapi dan tikus; ada 1 sampel baso dengan nomor 6 yang terbuat dari daging tikus; dan 2 sampel baso dengan nomor 2 dan 3 yang terbuat dari campuran sapi  dan babi, dan hanya 1 sampel baso dengan nomor sampel 4 yang benar-benar terbuat dari daging sapi.</em>

Protein Disulphide Isomerase

Protein disulphide-isomerase from bovine liver was purified to homogeneity as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, two-dimensional electrophoresis and N-terminal amino acid analysis. The preparative procedure, a modification of that of Carmichael, Morin & Dixon [(1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 7163-7167], is much faster and higher-yielding than previous procedures, and the final purified material is of higher specific activity. The enzyme has Mr 57 000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, both in the presence and in the absence of thiol compounds. Gel-filtration studies on Sephadex G-200 indicate an Mr of 107 000, suggesting that the native enzyme is a homodimer with no interchain disulphide bonds. Ultracentrifugation studies give a sedimentation coefficient of 3.5S, implying that the enzyme sediments as the monomer. The isoelectric point, in the presence of 8 M-urea, is 4.2, and some microheterogeneity is detectable. The amino acid composition is comparable with previous analyses of this enzyme from bovine liver and of other preparations of thiol:protein disulphide oxidoreductases whose relation to protein disulphide-isomerase has been controversial. The enzyme contains a very high proportion of Glx + Asx residues (27%). The N-terminal residue is His. The pure enzyme has a very small carbohydrate content, determined as 0.5-1.0% by the phenol/H2SO4 assay. Unless specific steps are taken to remove it, the purified enzyme contains a small amount (5 mol/mol of enzyme) of Triton X-100 carried through the purification.

Molecular Weights

Proteins from the axonemes and disc cytoskeleton of Giardia lamblia have been examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In addition to tubulin and the 30 X 10(3) molecular weight disc protein, at least 18 minor components copurify with the two major proteins in Triton-insoluble structures. The most prominent minor bands have the apparent molecular weights of 110 X 10(3), 95 X 10(3) and 81 X 10(3). Protein of 30 X 10(3) molecular weight accounts for about 20% of organelle protein on gels. In continuous 25 mM-Tris-glycine buffer it migrates mostly as a close-spaced doublet of polypeptides, which are here given the name giardins. Giardia tubulin and giardin have been purified by gel filtration chromatography in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. Well-separated fractions were obtained that could be further characterized. Both proteins are heterogeneous when examined by isoelectric focusing. Five tubulin chains were detected by PAGE Blue 83 dye-binding after focusing in a broad-range ampholyte gel. Giardin is slightly less acidic than tubulin. On gels it splits into four major and four minor chains with isoelectric points in the pI range from 5.8 to 6.2. The amino acid composition of the giardin fraction has been determined, and compared to Giardia tubulin and a rat brain tubulin standard. Giardins are rich in helix-forming residues, particularly leucine. They have a low content of proline and glycine; therefore they may have extensive alpha-helical regions and be rod-shaped. As integral proteins of disc microribbons, giardins in vivo associate closely with tubulin. The properties of giardins indicate that in a number of respects - molecular size, charge, stoichiometry - their structural interaction with tubulin assemblies will be different from other tubulin-accessory protein copolymers studied in vitro.
