1. Non-collagenous substances in newborn calf dermis were extracted with solutions of various concentrations of MgCl2. The total protein and hydroxyproline contents in MgCl2 extracts increased with increase in the concentration of MgCl2 in the solutions. In particular, steep increases of their contents were observed at concentrations of MgCl2 from 0.5 to 1.0 M. Total amounts of hydroxyproline in 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 M MgCl2 extracts were equivalent to 40-50% of the hydroxyproline content in the whole connective tissue. Hexose and hexosamine contents of MgCl2 extracts increased with increase of the MgCl2 concentration. Hexuronic acid was hardly present in the residues after extractions with 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 M MgCl2. 2. Plasma proteins, hyaluronic acid, and dermatan sulfate were extracted at low concentrations of MgCl2. A non-collagenous protein and MgCl2-soluble collagen were extracted with 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 M MgCl2 solutions. The disperson of collagen fibrils was observed in the residue extracted with 1.0 M MgCl2 solution by electron microscopy; the fibril structure of collagen was disordered by extraction with 2.0 and 3.0 M MgCl2. The results suggest that the dispersion and disorder of collagen fibrils lead to the release of a non-collagenous protein. Furthermore, it is suggested that the removal of hyaluronic acid and dermatan sulfate was not very effective for the solubilization of a large amount of collagen, but was suitable as a pretreatment to the extraction of a non-collagenous protein accompanied by the solubilization of a large amount of collagen. 3. The non-collagenous protein was purified by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of this protein at pH 8.5 showed a single band moving to the cathode. The non-collagenous protein contained 3.7% hexose, 1.8% hexosamine, and no hexuronic acid. This protein is rich in glycine, glutamic acid, and alanine, and contains neither hydroxyproline nor hydroxylysine. Sedimentation analysis showed a single peak with 1.8 S and the molecular weight was approx. 43,000 as determided by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Media of pig aorta was extracted with 1 M NaCl and 2 M MgCl2 to remove most of the soluble collagen, proteoglycans and glycoproteins. The glycoproteins remaining in the residue were extracted with 6 M urea-0.1 M mercaptoethanol. The urea soluble proteins were precipitated by dialysis, redissolved in 4 M guanidine-0.05 M DTT and were S-carboxamidomethylated (CM-guanidine extract). This extract was further fractionated by a variety of methods in order to separate a glycoprotein from collagen and proteoglycans. Caesium chloride density-gradient ultracentrifugation of the CM-guanidine extract separated a minor proteoglycan peak from a major glycoprotein fraction still containing some hydroxyproline. This major glycoprotein fraction was excluded as a single peak from Sephadex G 100 and G 200 in 4 M guanidinium chloride or in 6 M urea-0.2 per cent SDS. Sodium dodecylsulphate gel electrophoresis separated this high molecular weight Sephadex fraction into a major low molecular weight (approximately 35000 daltons) component and a minor high molecular weight component. This glycoprotein fraction could also be separated from a collagenous fraction and from proteoglycans by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose or by gelfiltration on Sepharose 4 B in 6 M urea-0.02 M EDTA-0.2 per cent SDS at pH 7.0. The isolated glycoprotein fraction is rich in dicarboxylic amino acids, contains galactose, mannose, (glucose), N-acetylglucosamine and sialic acid. The S-carboxamidomethyl glycoprotein preparation interacts with acid soluble calf skin collagen on isoelectric focusing in sucrose gradient in urea. This interaction is in favour of the biological role claimed for structural glycoproteins during fibrogenesis and differentiation.

Myosin from rabbit stomach was highly purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation in the presence of ATP and MgCl2, ultracentrifugation and Sepharose 4B chromatography. The myosin composed of one heavy and two light chains as determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of the light chains were the same as those of gizzard myosin, about 20,000 and 17,000, respectively. The pH-activity curve and the KCl concentration dependency of Ca-ATPase of the stomach myosin were similar to those of other smooth muscle myosins. The stomach myosin was more resistant to pepsin digestion than skeletal myosin. Other proteolytic enzymes, trypsin, chymotrypsin, papain, and nagarse, digested the myosin in the same way as skeletal myosin.

During Mn(II)-ATP hydrolysis by myosin, the predominant intermediate formed at the burst site of the enzyme below 10 degrees is the myosin-ADP complex formed by adding ADP to myosin, while above 10 degrees it is the myosin -ADP-P1 complex generated by ATP hydroolysis (Yazawa, Morita, & Yagi (1973) J. Biochem. 74, 1107; Hozumi & Tawada (1975) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 376, 1; Tawada & Yoshida (1975) J. Biochem. 78, 293). It is suggested that the second (non-burst) site of myosin predominantly forms the myosin-ATP complex (Hozumi & Tawada, ibid.). From these findings, it is expected that (i) myosin subfragment 1 (S1) having the burst site is bound to actin in Mn(II)-ATP solution containing ADP below 10 degrees, because it forms the S1-ADP complex even in the presence of ATP; (ii) the other S1, i.e., that having the non-burst site, is dissociated from actin, because it forms the S1-ATP complex. These two expectations were confirmed by viscosity measurements of acto-S1 solutions, giving a basis for the separation of S1 into two fractions: one having the burst site and the other having the non-burst site. S1 having the non-burst site could be extracted from partially papain [EC 3.4.22.2]-digested myofibrils of rabbit skeletal muscle with a solution containing MnCl2, ATP, and ADP at 0 degrees. S1 having the burst site was extracted from myofibrils already used for the extraction of S1 having the non-burst site, with a solution containing MgCl2 and ATP at 20 degrees. The former S1 fraction had Mg-ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity, but scarcely showed any initial burst of Pi liberation. The latter S1 showed a Pi burst of more than 0.5 (M/M). The steady state ATPase activity of the former S1 was slightly higher than that of the latter. The burst size of normal S1, i.e., that extracted from papain-digested myofibrils with Mg-PPi or Mg-ATP, was 0.5 (M/M). The ultraviolet absorption spectrum of the non-burst type S1 was not changed by ADP but was changed by ATP, though the difference spectrum was distinct from that of normal S1 and the difference molar extinction coefficient at 289 nm was only 20% of that of normal S1. No significant difference was seen in the compositions of these two S1's and normal S1, as determined by SDS gel electrophoresis.

The Ca-regulatory system in squid mantle muscle was studied. The findings were as follows. (a) Squid mantle myosin B (squid myosin B) was Ca-sensitive, and its Ca-sensitivity was unaffected by addition of a large amount of rabbit skeletal myosin (skeletal myosin) or rabbit skeletal F-actin (skeletal F-actin). (b) Squid myosin was prepared from the mantle muscle. It showed a heavy chain component and two light chain components in the SDS-gel electrophoretic pattern: the molecular weights of the latter two were 17,000 and 15,000. Actomyosin reconstituted from squid myosin and skeletal (or squid) actin showed Ca-sensitivity in superprecipitation and Mg-ATPase assays. EDTA- treatment had no effect on the Ca-sensitivity of squid myosin. (c) Squid mantle actin (squid actin) was prepared by the method of Spudich and Watt. Hybrid actomyosin reconstituted by using the pure squid actin preparation with skeletal myosin showed no Ca-sensitivity in Mg-ATPase assay, whereas that reconstituted using crude squid actin showed marked Ca-sensitivity. The crude squid actin contained four protein components which were capable of associating with F-actin in 0.1 M KCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 20 mM Tris-maleate (pH7.5). (d) Native tropomyosin was prepared from squid mantle muscle, and it conferred Ca-sensitivity on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid actomyosin reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (e) Squid native tropomyosin was separated into troponin and tropomyosin fractions by placing it in 0.4 M LiCl at pH 4.7. The troponin fraction was further purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Squid troponin thus obtained was different in mobility from rabbit skeletal or carp dorsal troponin; three bands of squid troponin corresponded to molecular weights of 52,000, 28,000, and 24,000 daltons. It could confer Ca-sensitivity in the presence of tropomyosin on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (f) Squid myosin B, and two hybrid actomyosins were compared as regards Ca and Sr requirements for their Mg-ATPase activities. The myosin-linked regulatory system rather than the thin-filament-linked regulatory system was predominant in squid myosin B. Squid myosin B required higher Ca2+ and Sr2+ concentrations for Mg-ATPase activity; half-maximal activation of Mg-ATPase was obtained at 0.8 micron Ca2+ and 28 micron Sr2+ with skeletal myosin B, and at 2.5 micron Ca2+ and 140 micron Sr2+ with squid myosin B.

Proteins of apparent molecular weights between 10 000 and 250 000 could be solubilized from guinea pig epidermis using a Tris/sucrose/ATP buffer. When the ionic concentration of the solubilized extract was made 75 mM with respect to KCl and 2 mM with respect to MgCl2, a protein complex precipitated which on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis resolved into bands corresponding in migration to myosin, actin and a number of low molecular weight proteins. Myosin was dissociated from the complex with 0.6 M KI and purified by gel filtration chromatography on an agarose column. The purified epidermal myosin fraction contained a polypeptide of 200 000 molecular weight andtwo low molecular weight polypeptides of 16 500 and 13 000. The amino acid composition of the epidermal myosin heavy chain was similar to that of muscle myosin. At high ionic strength epidermal myosin had high specific (K+ + Ca2+)- and (K+ + EDTA)-ATPase activities and low specific (K+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity. The pH activity curves of the (K+ + Ca2+)- and (K+ + EDTA)-ATPase were different. ATP was hydrolyzed faster than other nucleoside triphosphates. At low ionic strength, the (K+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity of epidermal myosin was stimulated two fold by skeletal muscle actin. The myosin formed bipolar filaments in 50 mM KCl in the presence of 5 mM Mg2+.

Actomyosin was extracted from smooth muscle of molluscan abalone with 0.1 M PPit pH 6.4. Myosin was separated from the actomyosin by centrifugation at 100,000 X g in the presence of 5 mM ATP and 10 mM MgCl2. Myosin in the supernatant was further purified by gel filtration on a Sepharose 4B column. Paramyosin contamination of the actomyosin preparation interfered with the isolation of myosin and complete removal of actin and paramyosin from the myosin has not been accomplished. The myosin appeared to consist of a single f-chain and a single g-chain, as examined by SDS-disc electrophoresis in 8 or 13.7% acrylamide gel. The ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity of this myosin in 0.5 M KCL at neutral pH and at 0 degrees was rather unstable and decreased by 10-20% per day. The effects of rho-chloromercuribenzoate and EDTA on the ATPase activity were similar to those observed with other smooth muscle myosin but the dependence upon pH or KCL concentration was different.

A partial purification of the Epstein-Barr-virus nuclear antigen 2A (EBNA 2A) protein from the Epstein-Barr-virus-infected lymphoblastoid cell line, Cherry, has been designed. The main purification step was immunoaffinity chromatography, based on the mAb, 115E, directed towards the carboxy terminus of EBNA 2A. This was followed by chromatography over a Blue Sepharose column. According to silver-stained SDS/PAGE, EBNA 2A was estimated to be 20% pure. The purified fractions contained an ATPase activity that was inhibited by the mAb 115E. Immunopurification of six EBNA-2A-positive cell lines and their negative counterpart showed that only fractions from EBNA-2A-positive lines contained ATPase activity. In gel-filtration experiments EBNA 2A eluted as a 75-kDa protein in conjunction with an ATPase activity. The EBNA 2A protein was covalently labeled by the ATP analog [14C]5'-[p-(fluorosulfonyl)benzoyl]adenosine. The ATPase activity was found to be optimal in the presence of 0.25 mM MgCl2 or CaCl2, whereas, in the presence of MnCl2 and ZnCl2, the activity was only about 50% of the control. High concentrations of Na2VO3 and heparin do not interfere with the activity, while 2.5 mM NaF or 0.5 M NaCl give a 50% reduction of the activity. The Km for ATP and for GTP was 13 microM and 11 microM, respectively, and the Vmax for ATP was about six-times higher than with GTP as substrate. Other low-molecular-mass non-protein phosphate esters, such as phosphoserine or phosphothreonine inhibited the ATPase activity with a Ki of 18 and 32 microM, respectively. Phosphotyrosine had a Ki of 480 microM. Serine, threonine and tyrosine had no inhibitory effect on the ATPase activity.

A mitochondrial endonuclease from Drosophila melanogaster embryos was purified to near homogeneity by successive fractionation with DEAE-cellulose and heparin--avidgel-F, followed by FPLC chromatography on mono S, Superose 12 and a second mono S column. This enzyme digests double-stranded DNA more efficiently than heat-denatured DNA. The endonuclease activity has a molecular mass of 44 kDa, as determined under native conditions using a gel-filtration Superose 12 column. The prominent peptide detected by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis likewise has a molecular mass of 44 kDa, suggesting a monomeric protein. The enzyme has an absolute requirement for divalent cations, preferring Mg2+ over Mn2+. No activity could be detected when these cations were replaced by Ca2+ or Zn2+. The pH optimum for this enzyme activity is 6.5-7.4 and its isoelectric point is 4.9. Both single-strand and double-strand breaks are introduced simultaneously into a supercoiled substrate in the presence of MgCl2 or MnCl2. Endonuclease-treated DNA serves as a substrate for DNA polymerase I from Escherichia coli, suggesting that 3'-OH termini are generated during cleavage. The enzyme is free from any detectable DNA exonuclease activity but not from RNase activity. Partial inhibition by antibodies raised against mitochondrial endonucleases derived from bovine heart and Saccharomyces cerevisiae have revealed a potential structural homology between these nucleases.

The two ryanodine-binding proteins (RyBPs) have been purified from sarcoplasmic reticulum of bullfrog skeletal muscle by Mono Q column chromatography following solubilization of SR by CHAPS and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. We conclude that the two RyBPs (alpha- and beta-RyBP) are isoforms on the basis (i) that each RyBP is distinguished by a specific polyclonal antibody and (ii) that distinct polypeptides are generated by limited tryptic digestion of the two RyBPs. Monomeric molecular weights for alpha- and beta-RyBP are estimated to be (690 +/- 10) and (570 +/- 10) kDa, respectively, as determined from mobilities on disc SDS-PAGE using the Weber-Osborn buffer system without 6 M urea, which gives an estimate of (590 +/- 10) kDa for RyBP of rabbit skeletal muscle. Similar determination in the presence of 6 M urea gave 630 kDa for alpha-RyBP and unchanged estimates for the other RyBPs. Both RyBPs show [3H]ryanodine-binding activities which are activated by Ca2+, AMPOPCP, and caffeine, and inhibited by ruthenium red, MgCl2, and procaine. beta-RyBP, however, has higher affinity for Ca2+. In the presence of Ca2+ and AMPOPCP, both RyBPs show single homogeneous binding sites for [3H]ryanodine with Kd = 2-5 nM. The values of Bmax for alpha- and beta-RyBP were 320-340 and 320-375 pmol/mg protein, respectively. These results are consistent with the conclusion that a homo-tetramer of each RyBP binds one ryanodine molecule, taking account of the estimated molecular weight.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
