Interaction of several enzymes (pyruvate kinase, myokinase, creatine kinase, aldolase, malate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) and other proteins (bovine serum albumin and ovalbumin) with Blue Dextran was studied by means of affinity electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. A decrease of electrophoretic mobility of enzymes in affinity gels was dependent on Blue Dextran concentration and in some cases, dissociation constants of the protein-immobilized dye complexes could be calculated. Affinity electrophoresis in the presence of Blue Dextran reveals in some cases additional bands of isoenzymes, as compared with the control gels (without Blue Dextran).

A neutral SH-dependent proteinase was isolated from bovine spleen by a slight modification of the previous method (1) and its action on some natural and synthetic substrates was studied. The activity of the enzyme was increased 2000--2500-fold as compared to that of the original extract. The enzyme hydrolyzed various histones (H1, H2a, H2b, H3), casein and protamine but did not split hemoglobin, serum albumin and 14C-tryptophane-labelled total protein from chicken embryos. The enzyme possessed neither collagenolytic nor elastase activity; it did not inactivate aldolase, hexokinase, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which makes the enzyme different from cathepsin B1 and some other previously described proteinases. The enzyme did not split BAPA, BAEE, ATEE, Boc-Ala-ONP, Leu-beta-NA and some other peptides. The molecular weight of the enzyme was found to be about 15 000.

The binding isotherms of native bovine serum albumin with cationic detergents, such as octyl, decyl, dodecyl and tetradecylpyridinium bromides were determined at pH 6.8 and 3.4 at 25 degrees C. The isotherms for dodecyl and tetradecylpyridinium bromides were also determined at 3 degrees C. The average number of detergent cations bound increased with increasing hydrocarbon chain length. At low detergent concentration the binding of all alkylpyridinium bromides was smaller at pH 3.4 than at pH 6.8. Dodecylpyridinium bromide was bound to native beta-lactoglobulin, aldolase, ovalbumin, haemoglobin, myoglobin, lysozyme, trypsin and ribonuclease at pH 6.8. No binding occurred to alpha-chymotrypsin and chymotrypsinogen. The free enthalpy change, --delta G degrees, calculated from intrinsic association constants K was determined.

The partial specific volume, upsilon20, of bovine serum albumin at 25 degrees C was found to be 0.728 +/- 0.001 ml/g in solutions of guanidine hydrochloride (GuHC1), 0.01 M dithioerythritol (DTE), independent of GuHC1 concentration (3-6 M). The volume decrease upon denaturation is about 400 ml/mol (upsilon20 in water at the same temperature was found to be 0.734). From the reduced density increments at constant chemical potential of diffusible solutes, The apparent volumes, phi, were found to increase from 0.693 ml/g at 3 M GuHC1 to about 0.725 ml/g at 7 M GuHC1. The phenomenological interaction parameter, xi3 (grams of GuHC1 "bound" per gram of protein), was found to decrease from about 0.2 at 3 M GuHC1 to about 0.07 at 6.4 M GuHC1. The phenomenological interaction parameter, xi1 (grams of water "bound" per gram of protein), is negative and become less negative with increase in GuHC1 concentration. The relation between xi3 and xi1 and physical binding and exclusion of low-molecular-weight components are discussed in terms of simple model consideration. It is concluded that over the range of GuHC1 concentrations studied about 0.2 g of water as well as 0.28 g of GuHC1 are bound per gram of protein. This corresponds on the average to 1.3 molecules of water and 0.35 molecule of GuHC1 per amino acid residue. Similar results were found by recalculating some previous results for aldolase. These results on proteins in GuHC1 solution are in marked contrast to the behavior of DNA at high concentrations of NaCl and CsCl, which is analyzed on the basis of earlier work.

The acrylamide quenching reaction is shown to be very discriminating in sensing the exposure of fluorescing tryptophanyl residues in globular proteins. The quenching rate constants for some proteins, such as aldolase and human serum albumin, are reported to be independent of the solvent viscosity, indicating that the reaction is limited by penetration of the quencher through the protein matrix. Temperature-dependent studies are performed to determine the activation energy and entropy for the penetration of acrylamide into these proteins. The tryptophanyl residues in aldolase are shown to be shielded by a large activation energy barrier, while the single residue in human serum albumin is shielded by a large activation entropy barrier. These parameters characterize the nature of the protein matrix enveloping the fluorophors.

The rate of distribution of cell enzymes between the intravascular and extravascular space was studied, following a sudden decrease of enzyme activities in plasma. This rapid decrease of enzyme activities was achieved in rats by a rapid exchange of the blood with a twofold volume of a suspension of homologous erythrocytes in isoosmolar bovine serum albumin solution. After this plasmapheresis, the activities of seven cell enzymes in the plasma were decreased to 14 to 22% of their original values. The subsequent increase in activities showed different kinetics, depending on the enzyme. After 120 min, creatine kinase had reached the starting activity; malate dehydrogenase and aldolase reached their original activities after 180 min. Aspartate aminotransferase, glutamate dehydrogenase, alanine aminotransferase and pyruvate kinase increased more slowly and they had still not reached their starting values after 240 min. Repetition of the plasmapheresis after 90 min had no obvious effect on the kinetics of the subsequent activity increase. During the first minutes after plasmapheresis the adjustment of the activity equilibrium between the interstitial and the intravascular compartments depends mainly on the capillary permeability. It is therefore possible to determine half-life constants for the distribution of enzymes within the extracellular space. The constants for malate dehydrogenase and aldolase are almost identical with those determined by intravenous injection, whereas there are discrepancies in the constants for the remaining enzymes. The constants for pyruvate kinase and glutamate dehydrogenase are significantly lower, while those for aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and creatine kinase are significantly higher, than those determined after intravenous injection. Possible reasons for these differences are disucssed.

Phosphatidylcholine dispersed on Celite was rapidly solubilized by neutral bovine serum albumin solutions. Stable protein-lipid complexes were isolated by Agrose gel filtration or by ultracentrifugal flotation in high density solvents, and the physicochemical properties of the complexes were investigated in terms of the stoichiometry of binding, effect of fatty acid ligands on phosphatidylcholine binding, effect of high ionic strength on the stability of the complexes, intrinsic fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra, and sedimentation velocity coefficients. Complexes containing from 2 to 30 phosphatidylcholine molecules per protein molecule were observed; however, no saturation of binding sites could be detected in this range of molar ratios. Oleic acid binding by serum albumin prevents interaction of the protein with phosphatidylcholine, indicating possible competition of these ligands at low contents of the phospholipid. For molar ratios of up to 10 phosphatidylcholine molecules per serum albumin, binding is primarily due to hydrophobic interactions that have no effect on the overall shape and secondary structure of the native protein except for local modifications at tryptophan residues, whose fluorescence becomes quenched and blue shifted on phosphatidylcholine binding. Similar phosphatidylcholine uptake experiments performed with a series of globular proteins indicated that the lipid extraction from Celite surfaces is a non-specific process, accelerated by several other proteins (e.g. aldolase, egg albumin, chymotrypsinogen, soybean trypsin inhibitor, and the major apolipoprotein from bovine serum high density lipoprotein). Formation of stable protein-lipid complexes, however, was only observed with bovine serum albumin, which in contrast to the other proteins is known to have affinity binding sites for anions with hydrophobic side chains.

The hydrophobic nature of proteins is characterized by a degree of 2-p-toluidinonaphthalene-6-sulphonate (TNS) affinity to them and is pronounced quantitatively in the semi-saturated (C1/2) concentrations. This index correlates directly with the position of TNS emission maximum after the binding with proteins and reversely with the yield of fluorescence. The preparations of phosphofructokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, xantinoxidase, glyceratekinase, lysozyme, RNase during the long (1-2 h) contact with TNS change the values C1/2, that evidences for interaction with the hydrophobic indicator of new structures of protein molecule or for a change in the nature of its linkage itself. An attempt is made to characterize the accessible for TNS hydrophobic nature of individual proteins by a coefficient of molar hydrophobic nature which unites three mentioned characteristics. Serum albumin, insulin, glucogon, alpha chemotrypsin, DNase are most hydrophobic, pyruvate kinase, aldolase, urease, RNase--least hydrophobic, Glycerate kinase, pyruvate decarboxylase, phosphofructokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, xanthinoxidase, trypsin, lysozyme are in intermediate position.

Nuclear magnetic quadrupole relaxation appears to be a general method for studying the binding of anions to proteins. This is shown by the increase in transverse quadrupole relaxation rate of 35Cl- and 81Br- in the presence of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, lysozyme, trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, human carbonic anhydrase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase and human serum albumin. Of the many possible binding sites at the surface of a protein (e.g. positively charged amino acid side-chains) only a few account for the main part of the relaxation enhancement. This is shown by the decrease in 35Cl- and 81Br- relaxation rate on addition of functional ligands. Large, kinetically inert, complex anions like Pt(CN)2-4 and Au(CN)-2 are found to act as strong competitors towards halogen ions for the high-affinity anion binding sites of a number of proteins. Titrations with complex anions following the 35Cl- or 81Br- relaxation rates are found to be helpful in attempts to elucidate binding mechanisms. Especially, the complex anions may be useful probes for the discrimination between general and metallic anion binding sites in proteins and they also permit correlation of information from X-ray investigations of crystals with that from physical measurements in solution. From the change in halide ion quadrupole relaxation rate on addition of strongly binding ligands the quadrupole coupling constants of the high affinity Cl- and Br- binding sites are estimated using certain assumptions. It is found that for several proteins, comprising the metal-free proteins but also alcohol dehydrogenase and Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase, the 35Cl quadrupole coupling constants have approximately the same values. For some other metallo-proteins like carbonic anhydrase and a zinc - serum-albumin complex considerably greater quadrupole coupling constants were obtained. The estimated quadrupole coupling constants are used as a basis for a discussion of the interactions involved in anion-protein interactions.

Total serum protein, serum albumin, total urine protein excretion, and the serum activity of several enzymes--aldolase (ALS), cholinesterase (CHS), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICD), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBD), creatine kinase (CK), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT)--were estimated in rats with nephrotic syndrome (NS) at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 30 days after a single injection of puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN). It was found that: (a) total serum protein and serum albumin diminished on day 4 and returned to control values on days 20 and 30, respectively; (b) total urine protein excretion rose on day 4, reached a peak value on day 8, and then fell substantially but still remained higher than control values on day 30; (c) ALS and CHS activities increased; (d) LAP, ICD, and AST activities showed a biphasic pattern, first increasing and then decreasing; (e) ALT, LDH, HBD, CK, and ALP activities decreased; and (f) GGT activity remained unchanged. The differences in the profiles of the enzyme activities suggest their independent regulation in experimental NS induced by PAN.
