The recent report of the oxidation of beta 141 Leu in a New Zealand family with Hb Atlanta [ beta 75(E19)Leu-->Pro] prompted us to reinvestigate the original Hb Atlanta case from Georgia. Tryptic peptide maps showed that the modified beta CoT-14 peptide was present together with beta AT-14 in isopropanol precipitates of Hb Atlanta. Amino acid analysis confirmed that beta CoT-14 lacked leucine and mass spectrometry indicated that it had an increased mass of 16 Daltons. These findings support the proposition that the beta 75 Leu-->Pro substitution in the E helix is the direct cause of the beta 141 Leu oxidation.
最近有报道称,在一个患有亚特兰大血红蛋白病[β75(E19)亮氨酸→脯氨酸]的新西兰家庭中,β141亮氨酸发生了氧化,这促使我们重新调查来自佐治亚州的首例亚特兰大血红蛋白病病例。胰蛋白酶肽图显示,在亚特兰大血红蛋白的异丙醇沉淀中,修饰后的β CoT - 14肽与β AT - 14同时存在。氨基酸分析证实β CoT - 14缺乏亮氨酸,质谱分析表明其分子量增加了16道尔顿。这些发现支持了E螺旋中β75亮氨酸→脯氨酸取代是β141亮氨酸氧化的直接原因这一观点。
