Disease relevance of Sputolysin

  • The absorbance at 550 nm of the solution of both the galactosemic and the diabetic cataracts could be decreased by approximately 50% with the addition of dithioerythritol (50 mM) [1].
  • In hepatoma cells, after a 1-min pulse with radiolabeled amino acids, labeled apoB28 migrated during gel electrophoresis in the folded position and was resistant to reduction in vivo with 2 mM DTT [2].
  • The apparent Km and maximum velocity for T4 5'-D in homogenates of prolactinoma at 20 mmol/L DTT were 11 nmol/L and 1.54 pmol/mg protein.h, respectively [3].
  • Electrophoretic analysis of untreated and trypsin-treated rhesus rotavirus (RRV) and simain rotavirus SA11 in the presence and absence of the reducing agent dithioerythritol revealed that VP4 and its cleavage fragments VP5* and VP8* possessed intrachain disulfide bonds [4].
  • Studies on sulphoxide reduction by Escherichia coli showed that NADH, NADPH and dithiothreitol (DTT), but not acetaldehyde could act as cofactors [5].
 

High impact information on Sputolysin

  • In addition, diamide causes an inhibition of microtubule polymerization, reversible with dithioerythritol [6].
  • After treatment with KOH, trimethylamine, or dithioerythritol, the polypeptide masses are obtained [7].
  • Immunoblotting studies identified multiple NK cell plasma membrane-associated proteins to be reduced by DTT under LFA-1-activating conditions, but similar effects were also promoted by reducing agent treatments that failed to alter adhesive function [8].
  • Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of ghosts showed: (1) the presence of high mol wt aggregates (in three cases they were reduced by dithioerythritol; in one case, only partial reduction was possible); (2) the presence of multiple, scattered new bands; and (3) the reduction of band 3 [9].
  • There was no spontaneous disaggregation of the big species into smaller subunits nor did 8 M urea alone, dithioerythritol alone, boiling with a mixture of 8 M urea and dithioerythritol, or RNase alter its apparent molecular weight [10].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Sputolysin

  • The gel filtration and the CD studies suggest that above pH 7 a more open conformation of RMAK obtains in the presence of DTT [31].
  • Reduction of C135S-C32S with dithiothreitol (DTT) results in a decrease of epsilon454 to a value similar to that of TrR C135S, and subsequent NH4Cl titration leads to charge transfer complex formation in the nascent TrR C135S [32].
  • Graft survival was examined in 15 renal allograft recipients from a group of 20 patients with IgM autolymphocytotoxic antibody that could be removed in a crossmatch assay using a reducing agent, dithioerythritol (DTE) [20].
  • However, in 0.1 M 1,4-piperazinediethanesulfonic acid (pH 6.9) and 2 mM dithioerythritol (with no Mg2+), tubulin rapidly releases approximately 0.4 mol of bound nucleotides during two successive gel filtrations requiring less than 0.5 h and regains the ability to polymerize when magnesium and GTP are immediately added to the buffer [33].
  • When these 10 AHG-XM (+) sera were treated with dithioerythritol (to inactivate IgM) all 10 converted to a negative reactivity, indicating that a positive crossmatch due to IgM reactivity should not be considered a contraindication to cardiac transplantation [34].
