Allomorphic


Definition:

  • (8) Sequencing of the PCR products and transfection of these to Fc gamma R- cells indicated that in Fc gamma RIIa of HR or LR individuals: (i) three nucleotide substitutions (CA to TG and G to A) resulted in the change of glutamine to tryptophan at position 27 (first extracellular domain) and arginine to histidine at position 131 (second extracellular domain); (ii) expression of cDNA encoding the various combinations of these indicated that arginine at position 131 was essential for IgG1 binding whereas the amino acid changes at position 27 had no effect; and (iii) IgG1 at high concentration bound to all allomorphic forms of Fc gamma RIIa.

  • (17) When isolated, the two major bands again produced an "isoelectric spectrum" suggesting that it reflects an allomorphism of cx-flagellin.
  • (18) With respect to the coupling factor's ability to hydrolyze ATP, the data in this study suggest that there are at least four distinct functional allomorphs of this enzyme: (1) the latent enzyme, which has no kinetically measurable ATPase activity, (2) intrinsic ATPase, which is catalyzed by a small percentage of the molecular population that has been activated by some natural mechanism, (3) activated ATPase, which has properties different from those of intrinsic ATPase, and (4) aged activated ATPase, in which some of the properties (Km for substrate, sensitivity to deactivation by Mg2+ and H+) spontaneously change within 30 min.
  • (19) Thus, we assume that they are stable conformational isomers of the proteins (allomorphism) or that there are only slight variations in the internal sequences of these proteins (polymorphism) causing distinct pIs.
