| Research Abstract |
In this study, we planned mastoparan analogue(LLL-mastoparan-G) as an affinity ligand in which the N-terminal region of mastoparan is modified and the C-terminal region is extended by Gly. The affinity resin with the ligand was prepared by stepwise elongation method using the peptide synthesizer, in a manner that it is coupled to amino resin sequentially from the C-terminal to the N-terminal amino acid. The structure of the affinity ligand obtained after cleavage was analyzed by use of peptide sequencer and high-resolution positive FAB-MS spectrometer. The data for peptide sequence and elemental composition corresponded closely to theoretical ones.
It was shown by affinity chromatography and SDS-PAGE that calmodulin bound to the affinity ligand in the presence of calcium ion. Furthermore, HPLC-type affinity chromatography was devised in addition to the open column type.
We searched for the target proteins for mastoparan from bovine brain by newly prepared affinity resin. Our affinity chromatography system showed that unique proteins bound to the affinity-ligand only in the presence of calcium ion. Its molecular weight was estimated as about 26k Da. The detected proteins bands were eluted from gels by use of Max-yield electroeluter, or transferred to PVDF membrane by western blotting. Amino acid analysis and protein sequence analysis of the proteins eluted in the manner described above was also attempted.
