title: [Peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase from bovine heart atrium secretory granules and adrenal chromaffin granules].
abstract: About 40-60% of the peptidylglycine alpha-amidating amonooxygenase activity in the lysates of secretory granules from bovine atria and adrenal medulla isolated and lyzed in the presence of pepstatin, phenylmethylsulfonyl gluoride, N-ethylmaleimide and catalase, was found to be in the soluble form. The remaining part bound to the membrane fraction was extracted with Triton X-100. The procedure of purification of the soluble form of peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase from both atrial and chromaffin granules in electrophoretically homogeneous enzyme preparations was developed. The enzyme is made up of a single subunit with a molecular mass of 68 kDa and contains one copper atom per molecule. The EPR spectra of peptidylglycine alpha-amidating amonooxygenase and dopamine beta-monooxygenase were found to be practically identical, thus indicating that the copper environment in the both enzymes is the same. Both peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase and dopamine beta-monooxygenase are inhibited by the neurocuprein apoform, an extremely acidic protein isolated from brain and secretory granules of different endocrine tissues.
