Alkanediol monoglycolate bisphosphoric esters (P-O-CH2-CO-O-(CH2)n-O-P), which are analogues of the aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase, EC 4.1.2.13) substrate fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, were synthesized and used for probing its active site. The Ki value was lowest when the maximum distance between the phosphorus atoms of the bisphosphate was brought close to that of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The binding constants estimated from difference spectra correlate well with Ki values for the substrate analogues. Propanediol monoglycolate bisphosphoric ester protected aldolase from inactivation by 1,2-cyclohexanedione, which preferentially attacks arginine-55. However, propanol phosphate had little protective effect. The synthesized phosphate compounds protected the enzyme against inactivation by trypsin, and also against spontaneous denaturation. These results suggest that the synthesized phosphate compounds bind to aldolase at the active site, which tends to keep the distance constant between the two phosphate-binding sites for the open-chain form of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, and stabilize the natural conformation of the enzyme. Both arginine-55 and lysine-146 are shown to participate in the phosphate-binding site for the C-1-phosphate of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate.

The crystal structure of beta-lactamase from Staphylococcus aureus inactivated by p-nitrophenyl[[N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino]methyl]phosphonate, a methylphosphonate monoester monoanion inhibitor, has been determined and refined at 2.3 A resolution. The structure reveals a tetrahedral phosphorus covalently bonded to the O gamma atom of the active site serine, Ser70. One of the oxygen atoms bonded to phosphorus is located in the oxyanion hole formed by the two main-chain nitrogen atoms of Ser70 and Gln237, and the second bonded oxygen is solvated. The (benzyloxycarbonyl)aminomethyl group is oriented towards the active site gully such that the peptide group forms compensating electrostatic interactions with polar groups on the enzyme. The benzyl group forms a hydrophobic interaction with Ile239 and an aromatic-aromatic edge-to-face interaction with Tyr105, which has undergone a conformational transition relative to the native structure. The mode of binding supports the proposal that on reaction with the enzyme, the phosphonate generates a structure analogous to the tetrahedral transition state/intermediate associated with the acylation step of a normal substrate. The disposition of the phosphonyl group in this complex is the same as that of the corresponding phosphoryl group in the complex resulting from the inhibition of trypsin by diisopropylphosphofluoridate. The structure is consistent with a mechanism of inactivation that follows an associative pathway, proceeding via a transition state/intermediate in which phosphorus is penta-co-ordinated, forming a trigonal bipyramidal geometry with the phosphonyl donor (p-nitrophenol) and acceptor (Ser70 O gamma atom) in apical positions. A model of this transition state can be accommodated in the active site of beta-lactamase without any steric hindrance. A model of the tetrahedral transition state associated with the acylation step by benzyl penicillin has been derived. Because of the conformational rigidity of the fused rings of penicillin molecules, the orientation of the substrate is fixed once the tetrahedral carbonyl carbon and its ligands are superimposed on the phosphonate group. The outcome is that the carboxylate substituent on the thiazolidine ring forms a salt bridge with Lys234, and the preferred puckering of the ring is that observed in the crystal structure of ampicillin, the so-called "open" conformer.

X-ray structures of trypsin from bovine pancreas inactivated by diphenyl [N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino](4-amidinophenyl)methanephosphonate [Z-(4-AmPhGly)P(OPh)2] were determined at 113 and 293 K to 1.8 angstrom resolution and refined to R factors of 0.211 (113 K) and 0. 178 (293 K). The structures reveal a tetrahedral phosphorus covalently bonded to the O gamma of the active site serine. Covalent bond formation is accompanied by the loss of both phenoxy groups. The D-stereoisomer of Z-(4-AmPhGly)P-(OPh)2 is not observed in the complex. The L-stereoisomer of the inhibitor forms contacts with several residues in the trypsin active site. One of the phosphonate oxygens is inserted into the oxyanion hole and forms hydrogen bonds to the amides of Gly193, Asp194, and Ser195. The second phosphonate oxygen forms hydrogen bonds to N epsilon 2 of His 57. The p-amidinophenylglycine moiety binds into the trypsin primary specificity pocket, interacting with Asp189. The amide forms a hydrogen bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom of Ser214. The inhibitor moiety, from the 113 K structure of trypsin inactivated by the reaction product of Z-(4-AmPhGly)P(OPh)2, was docked into human thrombin [Bode, W., Mayr, I., Baumann, U., Huber, R., Stone, S. R., & Hofsteenge, J. (1989) EMBO J. 8, 3467-3475] and energy minimized. The inhibitor fits well into the thrombin active site, forming favorable contacts similar to those in the trypsin complex with no bad contacts.

The effect of supplementing a cornsoybean diet (C) with glucose (G) or maltose (M) on young broilers (from hatch to 3 wk of age) affected by stunting syndrome (SS) was studied. Stunting syndrome was induced by orally administering an inoculum prepared from the intestines of SS broiler chicks. Relative to the M diet, the G diet improved growth and feed utilization and increased feed intake in naive (NA) control chickens. The C diet was intermediate in this respect. In contrast to the NA chickens, diet did not affect growth or feed utilization in SS chicks. Changes in the relative weights of the gastrointestinal tract segments were evident by 1 wk of age and hypertrophy of these segments persevered to 3 wk of age. Stunting syndrome infection was accompanied by a significant increase in pancreatic trypsin-specific activity during Weeks 1 and 2, and in chymotrypsin activity at 1 wk. During this time, amylase-specific activity was not affected. At 3 wk of age, the specific activities of amylase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin in the pancreas were lower in the inoculated vs control birds. Whereas no significant effect of SS was observed with activities of amylase in the intestinal contents, trypsin activity was higher in SS chicks at 1 wk, and that of chymotrypsin lower during Weeks 2 and 3. Relative to NA chicks, the maltase and saccharase activities of SS chicks were much lower during Week 1, but increased later on and were similar to NA chick values at 2 and 3 wk. Whereas the level of blood plasma proteins did not vary from 1 to 3 wk in the NA chicks, it increased gradually in SS chicks to a level that significantly exceeded that in their NA counterparts. Blood plasma glucose and triglyceride levels were slightly lower in the SS chicks (NS), and the blood plasma cholesterol level was significantly reduced during Week 2. Relative to NA chicks, SS infection caused a significant increase in plasma calcium during Weeks 2 and 3, accompanied by a significant reduction in blood plasma phosphorus at 2 wk only. No difference was observed in the blood plasma level of uric acid, which peaked in both treatments during Week 2, or in D-beta-hydroxybutyric acid level, which was quite stable during the experimental period. Stunting syndrome infection was accompanied by a dramatic increase in amylase and alkaline phosphatase activities in the blood plasma, and by a slight but significant decrease in activity of lactic dehydrogenase. Stunting syndrome was concluded to be an affliction not only of digestion but also of metabolism. The main depression in growth caused by SS inoculation is probably due to metabolic alterations beyond those of digestion and absorption.

When milk is ingested, casein micelles will be successively digested by pepsin in the stomach and trypsin in the intestine. Therefore, we digested casein micelles successively with pepsin at pH 4.0 and trypsin at pH 7.0, and recovered casein phosphopeptides (CPP) as CPP-calcium phosphate (CP) complexes. The CPP-CP complexes contained 248 mg of calcium/g peptides and 175 mg of inorganic phosphorus/g peptides, which were higher than those of CPP-CP complexes driven from acid-precipitated casein and casein micelles by tryptic digestion only. It contained more alpha S1-CN-5P(f59-79) than the other CPP preparations did.

Proteolysis of two purified recombinant enzymes, namely, the Aspergillus niger phytase (r-PhyA) and the Escherichia coli pH 2.5 acid phosphatase (r-AppA), by pepsin and trypsin was investigated in this study. After r-PhyA and r-AppA were incubated with different concentrations of pepsin or trypsin, their residual phytase activities and amounts of inorganic phosphorus released from soybean meal were determined. Both enzymes retained more than 85% of their original activities at the trypsin/phytase ratios (w/w) 0.001 and 0. 005, while r-AppA and r-PhyA lost 60 and 20% of the original activity at the ratio of 0.01 or 0.025, respectively. In contrast, there was a 30% increase in phytase activity after r-AppA was incubated with pepsin at the ratios of 0.005 or 0.01. Meanwhile, r-PhyA lost 58 to 77% of its original activity under the same conditions. Trypsin and pepsin affected the hydrolysis of phytate phosphorus from soybean meal by r-AppA and r-PhyA in a similar way to their residual phytase activities. All of these in vitro proteolyses were confirmed by SDS-PAGE analysis. Our results demonstrate different sensitivities of r-AppA and r-PhyA to trypsin and pepsin, suggesting active trypsin resistant r-PhyA and pepsin resistant r-AppA polypeptides.

'Doli Ki Roti'-an indigenously fermented bread popular among the Indian Punjabi community who migrated from Pakistan during partition, is a wheat based product having spiced chickpea as stuffing. It contains a good blend of cereal and legume protein (14.5 to 17.1%), fat (7.3 to 9.2%) and ash (3.8 to 4.7%). It is a good source of dietary essential minerals, i.e. calcium (52.7 to 62.6 mg/100 g), iron (8.7 to 10.6 mg/100 g) and phosphorus (313.8 to 346.7 mg/100 g). The antinutrients like phytic acid and trypsin inhibitors are present in considerable amounts in the unfermented bread but are reduced to the extent of 5 to 18% (phytic acid) and 49 to 70% (trypsin inhibitors) due to the fermentation carried out at 35 and 40 degrees C for varying time periods. The products developed were organoleptically acceptable in terms of colour, taste, texture, flavour, etc.

De-embedded ultrathin sections of ethanol-fixed Tipula Iridescent Virus particles were incubated with pepsin at pH 1.8, trypsin at pH 7.7, and DNase at pH 7.7. The outer shell of the particles, but not an inner core, was removed by the action of pepsin. Conversely, the inner core, but not the outer shell, was removed by the action of trypsin and DNase in combination, but not by either enzyme acting alone. These results are taken to mean that the outer shell of the particles is protein in nature and the inner core is nucleoprotein. Whole virus particles were also exposed to the same 3 enzymes. Trypsin and/or DNase had no effect on the whole particles, while pepsin at pH 1.8 digested away the outer shell of the particles and released an intact core, resistant to pepsin. The protein nature of the digested outer shells and the nucleoprotein nature of the released cores were confirmed by ultraviolet absorption spectra. Chemical analyses showed that the cores contain 89 per cent of the whole virus phosphorus but only 35 per cent of the nitrogen, while the outer shells contain only 5 per cent of the phosphorus but 63 per cent of the nitrogen. On the basis of nitrogen: phosphorus ratios the composition of the cores is estimated to be about 30 per cent DNA and 60 to 65 per cent protein.

The effect of trypsin on the morphology of the rat liver microsomal fraction isolated by differential centrifugation has been investigated. The microsomes were incubated at 37 degrees C and centrifuged thereafter under the conditions of their initial isolation. The trypsin-treated microsomes and the untreated controls were fixed in unbuffered osmium tetroxide and embedded first in gelose and then in methacrylate. In the trypsin-treated microsomes, there was a removal of the ribosomes from the rough vesicles. Parallel chemical determinations showed that the total nitrogen and total phosphorus of the pellet were lowered. Particles, densely stained with phosphotungstic acid (PTA) and homogeneous in appearance, were found within microsome smooth vesicles in a fluffy layer which collects on the top of the microsome pellet. The morphology of these PTA-stained particles remained unchanged after incubation with trypsin.

Homma, J. Yuzuru (University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan), and Nachiko Suzuki. "Cell-wall protein A" of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its relationship to "original endotoxin protein." J. Bacteriol. 87:630-640. 1964.-To compare the properties of two kinds of proteins, one obtained from the cell wall of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the other from the endotoxin in the autolysate, the proteins were purified to such an extent that they were proved to be homogeneous by zone electrophoretic and ultracentrifugal analyses. Although there were some differences between the two in such values as nitrogen and phosphorus contents and sedimentation constants, their protein portions were found similar to each other in the ratio of amino acid compositions. It was proved serologically that the two proteins possessed a common specific antigen. They were found to be the same in their potencies in eliciting the Shwartzman phenomenon and pyrogenic reaction. The results of pyocine tests with various sensitive strains revealed that, against the sensitive strains, the spectra of both proteins were almost the same. Their pyocine activities were destroyed through digestion by protease, trypsin, and Nagarse. Either of the rabbit antisera against the two proteins could neutralize pyocine activities of both proteins. Serum-absorption tests proved that the pyocine-neutralizing antibodies of both antisera could be completely absorbed with each of the proteins. Under appropriate conditions, their pyocine activities were masked partially in vitro by the lipopolysaccharde of the endotoxin.
