The membrane-bound dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV, EC 3.4.14.5) has been purified 5,400-fold from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The purification procedure included detergent solubilization and successive chromatography on DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow, Con A Sepharose, Cu2+ loaded metal-chelating Sepharose, Sephacryl S-300 High Resolution and Q Sepharose Hiload. The molecular mass of the native, detergent solubilized enzyme estimated by gel filtration was 264.kDa. Chromatofocusing indicated a pI of approximately 5.0. The pI optimum was 8.7. The enzymatic activity of the purified preparation was irreversibly inhibited by N-(H-Phe-Pro)-O-(4-nitrobenzoyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the micromolar range. The binding of purified DPP IV to CD26 monoclonal antibodies confirmed the identity between CD26 and dipeptidyl peptidase IV. The purification and characterization of lymphocytic dipeptidyl peptidase IV is of great value for the identification of its natural substrates and for the study of its physiological significance in the T-lymphocyte function.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides

D002845 Chromatography Techniques used to separate mixtures of substances based on differences in the relative affinities of the substances for mobile and stationary phases. A mobile phase (fluid or gas) passes through a column containing a stationary phase of porous solid or liquid coated on a solid support. Usage is both analytical for small amounts and preparative for bulk amounts. Chromatographies
