| abstractText | The CP-I subunit of calf kidney adenosine deaminase complexing protein (ADCP), isolated by affinity chromatography based on Sepharose-4B immobilized adenosine deaminase, is identical with dipeptidyl peptidase IV. This finding is based on the following results: (a) Its M(r) = 110 kD, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; (b) its catalytic activity toward Gly-Pro-p-nitroanilide; (c) its inhibition by serine protease inhibitor; and (d) by two peptide sequences resulting from its trypsin proteolysis. Accordingly, the CP-I subunit of ADCP isolated from bovine kidney is DPPIV (CD26). Thus, as anticipated, the high affinity between ADA subunits prevails even when they originate in different species. |
