The major serum inhibitor of proteolytic activity, alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor (alpha-1-PI), (or alpha-1-antitrypsin) can be readily inactivated by oxidation [Carp, H. & Janoff, A. (1978) Am. Rev. Resp. Dis. 118, 617-621]. This inactivation appears to be due to the oxidation of a critical methionine(s) in alpha-1-PI that is required for the inhibition of elastase activity. An enzyme from Escherichia coli that reduces methionine sulfoxide residues in protein [Brot, N., Weissbach, L., Werth, J. & Weissbach, H. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78, 2155-2158] can restore the biological inhibitory activity of canine oxidized alpha-1-PI.
蛋白水解活性的主要血清抑制剂α-1-蛋白酶抑制剂(α-1-PI),(或α-1-抗胰蛋白酶)可通过氧化轻易失活[卡普,H.和贾诺夫,A.(1978年)《美国呼吸疾病评论》118,617 - 621]。这种失活似乎是由于α-1-PI中一个关键甲硫氨酸的氧化,而该甲硫氨酸是抑制弹性蛋白酶活性所必需的。一种来自大肠杆菌的可还原蛋白质中甲硫氨酸亚砜残基的酶[布罗特,N.、魏斯巴赫,L.、韦思,J.和魏斯巴赫,H.(1981年)《美国国家科学院院刊》78,2155 - 2158]能够恢复犬氧化α-1-PI的生物抑制活性。
