Protein synthesis and degradation in the mammary gland of lactating goats.

Lactating goats were given a close arterial infusion of [1-14C]leucine and [4,5-3H]4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid into one half of the mammary gland at 2-3 weeks and 34-39 weeks after kidding. Rates of protein synthesis, degradation and net output were determined from measurements of arteriovenous difference and blood flow using a model of leucine metabolism previously developed for muscle (Oddy & Lindsay, 1986). Protein leucine output in milk (Y mumol/min) correlated well with the difference between synthesis and degradation (X mumol/min) derived from the model: Y = 1.30 + 1.24X (r2 = 0.9; n = 9, P less than 0.01). There was substantial synthesis and degradation of protein within the mammary gland. Although only an approximate value could be obtained for the partitioning of protein synthesis and degradation between tissue and milk proteins, there was evidence of appreciable turnover of both. There was no significant difference between mammary leucine and protein metabolism in early and late lactation other than that imparted by a greater mass of mammary tissue in early lactation, although there was a tendency for greater oxidation of leucine in late lactation.

Ionic liquids as advantageous solvents for headspace gas chromatography of compounds with low vapor pressure.

The potential of ionic liquids as solvents for headspace gas chromatography was investigated. Three compounds with boiling points above 200 degrees C were selected to demonstrate the feasibility of the concept described. 2-Ethylhexanoic acid, formamide, and tri-n-butylamine as examples of acidic, neutral, and basic analytes were dissolved in acidic 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate (1), neutral 1-n-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium dicyanamide (2), and 2 containing 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene to adjust basic conditions. All analytes could be determined with limits of detection and limits of quantification in the low-ppm concentration range.

Production and properties of skeletal myosin subfragment 1 selectively labeled with fluorescein at lysine-553 proximal to the strong actin-binding site.

We describe, for the first time, the reaction of skeletal myosin subfragment 1 (S-1) with the succinimido ester of 6-[fluorescein-5(and 6)-carboxamido]hexanoic acid (FHS), which takes place at pH 7.0, 20 degrees C, within a 15 min period, in the presence of 1.5-1.8-fold molar excess of reagent over protein. As a result, 0.9-1.0 mol of fluorescyl group/mol of S-1 was covalently incorporated exclusively into the 95 kDa heavy chain as monitored by spectroscopic measurements. The central 50 kDa segment included the main site of fluorescence attachment as assessed by gel electrophoresis. The extent of S-1--FHS conjugation is strongly sensitive to F-actin binding but not to the interaction of nucleotides. The formation of the rigor F-actin--S-1 complex decreased the level of S-1 labeling to 20% without any competition between actin and S-1 for FHS binding. The derivatization of S-1 did not alter the K(+)-ATPase activity, but it enhanced the Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase to 150% and 225%, respectively, whereas it lowered the actin-activated ATPase to only 75% of the original activity. A double-reciprocal plot of the ATPase rate against actin concentration indicated a 2-fold decrease of the Vmax value for modified S-1, while the Km for actin was unchanged. Cosedimentation experiments did not reveal disruption of the rigor acto-S-1 interaction by the bound fluorophore. The labeled S-1 heavy chain was isolated, and its total tryptic digest was fractionated by reverse-phase HPLC.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
