[The method for determination of aconitum alkaloids in Radix Aconiti Kusnezoffii].

The methods for the determination of Aconitum alkaloids in Radix Aconiti Kusnezoffii were established. Volumetric analysis with the indicator of methyl red-bromcresol green and colorimetric analysis with acid dye of bromecresol green under the wavelength of 416 nm were used for the assay of total alkaloids. Colorimetric analysis of hydroxamic acid-Fe was for the assay of total ester-diterpene type Aconitum alkaloids. Three kinds of diester-diterpene type Aconitum alkaloids (aconitine, hypaconitine and mesaconitine) were determined by HPLC method. The HPLC system consisted of C18 as the stationary phase and acetonitrile: buffer (acetic acid-triethylamine, pH 6.25) = 71:29 as the mobile phase. The wavelength was 235 nm.

Siderophores of highly phytopathogenic Alternaria longipes. Structures of hydroxycoprogens.

Alternaria longipes ATCC 26293, a highly phytopathogenic fungus, has been found to produce a large number of siderophores under iron-deficient conditions. Most of the compounds are members of the coprogen family. Structures of three novel siderophores, termed hydroxycoprogens, have been determined by 1H and 13C NMR, FAB mass spectrometry and partial hydrolysis. The compounds are analogs of coprogen, neocoprogen I and isoneocoprogen I, in which one of the terminal trans-anhydromevalonic acid residues is replaced by a trans-4,5 dihydroxy-3-methyl-2-pentenoic acid residue.

Malonichrome, a new iron chelate from Fusarium roseum.

The predominant iron chelates, or siderochromes, produced by the fungus, Fusarium roseum during culture periods up to seven days are the ester type fusarinine compounds. During longer periods of incubation, the fusarinine compounds completely disappear from the culture medium and are replaced by a new siderochrome. The new compound has been isolated, purified, and its structure determined. It is a cyclic hexapeptide containing one residue of L-alanine, two residues of glycine and three residues of delta-N-hydroxyornithine. The hydroxylamino groups of the ornithine residues are acylated with 3 mol of malonic acid to form a negatively charged ferrichrome type chelate. The circular dichroism spectrum indicates that the stereochemistry about the iron is lambda-cis. This compounds, which we name malonichrome, is not an efficient iron donor to F. roseum nor does it show growth factor activity towards Arthrobacter flavescens.

Alpha-V-dependent outside-in signaling is required for the regulation of CD44 surface expression, MMP-2 secretion, and cell migration by osteopontin in human melanoma cells.

The level of integrin alpha(v)beta3 and its ligand osteopontin (OPN) has been directly correlated to tumorigenicity of melanoma and other cancer cells. We have previously shown an increase in pp(60c-Src) kinase activity associated with integrin alpha(v)beta3 in melanoma cells (M21) treated with soluble OPN. pp(60c-Src) kinase activity was not observed in melanoma cells expressing alpha(v) that lacks the cytoplasmic domain (alpha(v)995). Results of the current study demonstrate that the amino acid sequence '995RPPQEEQERE1004' in the beta-turn of alpha(v) chain is required for the interaction of pp(60c-Src). Our results suggest that the beta-turn of alpha(v) chain may be indispensable for alpha(v)-associated signaling complex formation and outside-in signaling. To further analyze the alpha(v)beta3 signaling in melanoma cells, we over expressed OPN in M21 cells (M21/OPN). CD44 surface expression and MMP-2 activity in the conditioned medium were increased to a greater extent in M21/OPN cells as compared with M21 or alpha(v)995 cells. Also, M21/OPN cells exhibit increased motility, which is markedly reduced upon treatment with inhibitors to alpha(v) and MMP-2. Our findings suggest that the increase in MMP-2 activity is integrin-dependent as MMP-2 activity is reduced in cells treated with an inhibitor to alpha(v) or in alpha(v)995 cells expressing mutant alpha(v).

H NMR investigation of the influence of interacting sites on the dynamics and thermodynamics of substrate and ligand binding to horseradish peroxidase.

The influence of substrate benzhydroxamic acid (BHA) and iron ligand (cyanide) on the thermodynamics and dynamics of each of the two binding sites of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) isozyme C has been investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. A combination of line-width analysis and saturation transfer spectroscopy has allowed the direct determination of the off-rate of substrate and ligand in the absence or presence of the other. These off-rates, together with available dissociation constants obtained by optical spectroscopy (Schonbaum, 1973), provide estimates for kon. The dissociation constant for cyanide binding to the BHA.HRP complex was also directly determined by NMR. In all cases the 1H NMR determined dynamic and thermodynamic data agree well with those values available in the literature. BHA binding leads to a 200-fold decrease in CN- affinity that arises from a factor greater than 10 decrease in koff(CN-) and greater than 2 x 10(3) decrease in kon(CN-). While a portion of the decrease in kon(CN-) can be rationalized by water coordination of the iron in the BHA.HRP complex, the additional decrease in kon(CN-) and that in koff(CN-) indicates that BHA in the binding pocket blocks the CN- ligation channel and serves as a "gate" to CN- exchange. This view is supported by observing a factor greater than 4 decrease in distal His labile proton exchange with bulk water in HRP-CN upon BHA binding. The ternary complex BHA.HRP-CN is shown to be heterogeneous. While the thermodynamics of BHA and CN- binding appear similar in the two ternary complexes, the BHA on- and off-rates for the two complexes differ by a factor of approximately 10. The two heterogeneous forms interconvert at 25 degrees C at approximately 2 x 10(2) s-1, precluding the determination of any difference in the CN- binding rates by saturation transfer. The greater lability of one of the two ternary complexes is attributed to an alternate orientation of some distal residue that blocks the substrate binding channel in one of the forms. Transferred nuclear Overhauser effects from the heme to BHA in the ternary complex reveal that the BHA substrate is in contact not only with the heme pyrrole D substituents but also with the distal His 42, indicating that the polar side chain of BHA extends well into the distal heme pocket.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Crystal structure of recombinant chicken triosephosphate isomerase-phosphoglycolohydroxamate complex at 1.8-A resolution.

The crystal structure of recombinant chicken triosephosphate isomerase (TIM, E.C. 5.3.1.1) complexed with the intermediate analogue phosphoglycolohydroxamate (PGH) has been solved by the method of molecular replacement and refined to an R-factor of 18.5% at 1.8-A resolution. The structure is essentially identical to that of the yeast TIM-PGH complex [Davenport, R. C., et al. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 5821-5826] determined earlier and refined at comparable resolution. This identity extends to the high-energy conformations of the active-site residues Lys13 and Ser211, as well as the positions of several bound water molecules that are retained in the active site when PGH is bound. Comparison with the structure of uncomplexed chicken TIM shows that the catalytic base, Glu165, moves several angstroms when PGH binds. This movement may provide a trigger for a larger conformational change, one of 7 A, in a loop near the active site, which folds down like a lid to shield the bound inhibitor and catalytic residues from contact with bulk solvent. These same conformational changes were seen in crystalline yeast TIM upon binding of PGH; their occurrence here in a different crystal form of TIM eliminates the possibility that they are an artifact of crystal packing.
