摘要: Aminopeptidases play important roles in turnover of proteins, metabolism of hormones and neurotransmission, cell maturation and immunological regulations. In the present study, an aminopeptidase was purified to homogeneity from the skeletal muscle of grass carp by ammonium sulfate fractionation and sequential chromatographic steps, including DEAE-Sephacel, Sephacryl S-200, hydroxyapatite and Phenyl-Sepharose. The purified enzyme revealed a molecular mass of approximately 105 kDa both on SDS-PAGE and on gel filtration of Superdex 200. The enzymatic activity toward synthetic substrates was optimal at 40pC and pH 7.0-7.5. Metal-chelating agents such as EDTA and EGTA effectively inhibited the enzyme activity while inhibitors to serine, asparatic and cysteine proteinases did not show much effect, suggesting its belonging to metalloproteinase family. A specific aminopeptidase inhibitor bestatin was most effective in suppressing the enzymatic activity and performed in a competitive fashion. The enzymatic activity was slightly enhanced by metal ions of Mgpo and Mnpo while inhibited to different extents by Copo, Cupo, Znpo and Capo. Sulfhydryl reagent was necessary to maintain its activity. Purified enzyme demonstrated amidolytic activity most effectively against synthetic aminopeptidase substrate Leu-methylcoumarylamide (MCA) while N-terminal-blocked substrates and myofibrillar proteins were not hydrolyzed. The enzyme purified in the present study was quite possibly a leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) and functions during muscular protein metabolism.
