Streptomyces virginiae가 생산하는 Virginiae Butanolide C(VB-C) 결합단백질의 결합활성에 미치는 일반적 특성

Characterization of the Binding Activity of Virginiae Butanolide C Binding Protein in Streptomyces virginiae

Streptomyces virginiae가 생산하는 virginimycin 생산 유도인자(virginiae butanolide C,VB-C) 결합 단백질의 ligand(VB-C)와의 결합활성에 미치는 일반적인 성질을 검토한 결과, 본 VB-C 결합단백질은 막성분을 제외한 세포질에 90% 이상 존재하며, 최적 pH는 7.0인 것으로 입증되었다. KCL 존재하 약 15%의 결합활성이 증대되었으며,$Mo^{6+}$ 이온 존재시 60%의 결합활성 저하를 보였다.

Virginiae butanolide (VB) is an autoregulator which triggers virginiamycin production in Strefltomyces virginiae. VB-C binding protein activity was investigated under various additives. The VB-C binding protein was almost fully observed in sotubte fraction (>90%) and the binding activity was optimum at pH 7.0. The VB-C binding activity was increased about 15% in 0.5 M KCI, whereas decreased about 60% in 20 mM $Mo^{6+}$. Chelating reagents (ethylenediarnine tetraacetic acid, ethyleneglycol bis(2-aminoethylether) tetraacetic acid, 8-hydroxyquinoline) and SH protecting reagents (rnercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, thioglycerol) inhibited the VB-C binding activity about 30~55% and 3~20%, respectively. Serine protease inhibitor (phenyl methane sulfonyl fluoride), nucleotides (guanosine 5'-monophosphate, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate), and phosphatases (alkaline, acid phosphatase) increased the VB-C binding activity about 17%, 6~20%, and 4- 13%, respectively.
