Preparation and characterization of bovine aortic actin

Abstract: A functional vascular smooth-muscle actin from bovine aorta was purified to homogeneity by an original method and was able to polymerize. Aortic actin is composed of two major isoforms and at least two minor ones. This actin was not phosphorylated by either cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase or C kinase. The physical properties of aortic actin were found to be very similar to those of skeletal-muscle actin, except for amino acid composition (three tryptophan residues instead of four). The aortic actin and ske… Show more

“…CPBPs include proteins of an apparent Mr of about 70 kDa that are probably identical and of several proteins in the 3 W O kDa range that are not yet fully distinguishable. This group of [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] kDa proteins share common properties and can be differentiated from one another essentially by their amino acid sequence [ 1,2,[11][12][13]24,30] or by their characteristic migration on twodimensional electrophoresis [9]. Four have been clearly identified: lipocortin I (identical to calpactin 11), lipocortin I1 (identical to calpactin I heavy chain), protein I1 (similar to endonexin and chromobindin 4), and endonexin 11, which is identical to the coagulation inhibitor (PAP or IBC) and to lipocortin V [30].…”

“…Smooth muscle a-actinin was obtained from chicken gizzard as described by Craig et al (1 982). Tropomyosin was obtained from rabbit skeletal muscle according to Cavadore et al (1985). Rabbit skeletal muscle actin was extracted from acetone powder (Spudich and Watt, 1971) and further purified on Sephacryl S300 as previously described (Lebart et al, 1990).…”

“…Bovine aortic-muscle actin was prepared as previously described by Cavadore et al (1985). Glutaraldehydestabilized aortic F-actin (Herman & Pollard, 1979) was coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B (Pharmacia) as indicated by the manufacturer.…”
