Dicoumarol-induced 9-γ-carboxyglutamic acid prothrombin: isolation and comparison with the 6-, 7-, 8-, and l0-γ-carboxyglutamic acid isomers
1990
The role of γ-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) in prothrombin function can be effectively evaluated by characterizing dicoumarol-induced, Gla-deficient prothrombin structural isomers. In addition to the isolation of 8-, 7-, 6-, 5-, 3-, 2-, 1-, and 0-Gla isomers, we have now purified a variant prothrombin containing 9(8.80) Gla residues by barium citrate adsorption, elution, and finally by DEAE-cellulose and immunoaffinity chromatographies. Agar gel electrophoretic mobilities of the 9-Gla isomer and its fragment 1 were slower than those of the respective 10-Gla (normal) prothrombin and fragment 1, both in the absence and presence of Ca(II). In the presence of Ca(II), both 9- and 10-Gla fragments 1 moved slower than 8- and 7-Gla fragments 1. However, in the absence of metal ions, 9- and 7-Gla fragments 1 migrated at the same rate, but slower than 10- and 8-Gla fragments. Similarly, the 9-Gla fragment 1 electro focused cathodically to 10- and 8-Gla, but comparably with 7-Gla fragment 1. The 9-Gla fragment 1 exhibi...
