Purification and Properties of Lactate Racemase from Lactobacillus Sake
The Journal of Biochemistry, Vol . 64, No. I, 1968 Purification and Properties of Lactate Racemase from Lactobacillus sake By TETSUG HIYAMA, SAKUzo FUKUI and KAKUO KITAHARA* (From the Institute of Applied Microbiology,University of Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo) (Received for publication, February 12, 1968) A lactate racemase [EC 5.1.2.1] was isolated and purified about 190 fold in specific activity from the sonic extract of Lactobacillus sake. The purified preparation was almost homogeneous by ultracentrifugal and electrophoretical analyses. Characteristic properties of the enzyme were as follows : (a) absorption spectrum showed a single peak at 274 my, (b) molecular weight was 25,000, (c) the enzyme did not require any additional cofactors and showed no activity of lactate dehydrogenase, (d) K, values were 1.7 •~ 10-2 M and 8.0 •~ 10-2 M for D and L-lactate, respectively, (e) optimal pH was 5.8-6.2, (f) an equilibrium point was at a molar ratio of 1/1 (L-isomer/D-isomer), (g) the enzyme activity was inhibited by atebrin, adenosine monosulfate, oxamate and some of Fe chelating agents, (h) pyruvate and acrylate were not incorporated into lactate during the reaction, and (i) exchange reaction of hydrogen between lactate and water did not occur during the reaction. Since the first observation on the enzy the addition of both NAD and pyridoxamine matic racemization of optical active lactate phosphate. In this paper we deal with the by lactic acid bacteria had been reported by purification and properties of the lactate KATAGIRI and KITAHARA in 1936 (1), racemases racemizing enzyme from the cells of L. -

Regulation of the Tyrosine Kinase Itk by the Peptidyl-Prolyl Isomerase Cyclophilin A
Regulation of the tyrosine kinase Itk by the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase cyclophilin A Kristine N. Brazin, Robert J. Mallis, D. Bruce Fulton, and Amy H. Andreotti* Department of Biochemistry, Biophysics and Molecular Biology, Iowa State University, Ames, IA 50011 Edited by Owen N. Witte, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, and approved December 14, 2001 (received for review October 5, 2001) Interleukin-2 tyrosine kinase (Itk) is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine ulation of the cis and trans conformers. The majority of folded kinase of the Tec family that participates in the intracellular proteins for which three-dimensional structural information has signaling events leading to T cell activation.

Pin1 Inhibitors: Towards Understanding the Enzymatic
Pin1 Inhibitors: Towards Understanding the Enzymatic Mechanism Guoyan Xu Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University In the partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Chemistry Felicia A Etzkorn, Chair David G. I. Kingston Neal Castagnoli Paul R. Carlier Brian E. Hanson May 6, 2010 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Pin1, anti-cancer drug target, transition-state analogues, ketoamides, ketones, reduced amides, PPIase assay, inhibition Pin1 Inhibitors: Towards Understanding the Enzymatic Mechanism Guoyan Xu Abstract An important role of Pin1 is to catalyze the cis-trans isomerization of pSer/Thr- Pro bonds; as such, it plays an important role in many cellular events through the effects of conformational change on the function of its biological substrates, including Cdc25, c- Jun, and p53. The expression of Pin1 correlates with cyclin D1 levels, which contributes to cancer cell transformation. Overexpression of Pin1 promotes tumor growth, while its inhibition causes tumor cell apoptosis. Because Pin1 is overexpressed in many human cancer tissues, including breast, prostate, and lung cancer tissues, it plays an important role in oncogenesis, making its study vital for the development of anti-cancer agents. Many inhibitors have been discovered for Pin1, including 1) several classes of designed inhibitors such as alkene isosteres, non-peptidic, small molecular Pin1 inhibitors, and indanyl ketones, and 2) several natural products such as juglone, pepticinnamin E analogues, PiB and its derivatives obtained from a library screen. These Pin1 inhibitors show promise in the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic anticancer drugs due to their ability to block cell cycle progression. -

To uncover the substrate of LarB, we replaced the binds Ni and could act in Ni delivery or storage, and LarE is a putative LarB-containing lysates in the LarA activation mixture with ATP-using enzyme of the pyrophosphatase-loop superfamily. Here, purified LarB and potential substrates. Because nicotinic acid is a precursor of the Lar cofactor (1) and LarB features partial we show that LarB carboxylates the pyridinium ring of nicotinic acid sequence identity with PurE, an aminoimidazole ribonucleotide adenine dinucleotide (NaAD) and cleaves the phosphoanhydride (AIR) mutase/carboxylase (4), we tested the possibility that bond to release AMP. -
