Effects of pH and salt concentration on the formation and properties of chitosan-cellulose nanocrystal polyelectrolyte-macroion complexes

This study examines the effects of pH and salt concentration on the formation and properties of chitosan-cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) polyelectrolyte-macroion complexes (PMCs). The components' pK values, determined by potentiometric titration, were 6.40 for chitosan and 2.46 for the CNCs. The turbidity of PMC particle suspensions was measured as a function of chitosan-CNC ratio, pH, and salt concentration. The maximum turbidity values in titrations of a chitosan solution with a CNC suspension and vice versa occurred at charge ratios of 0.47 ± 0.11 (SO(3)(-)/NH(3)(+)) and 1.16 ± 0.06 (NH(3)(+)/SO(3)(-)), respectively. A pH increase caused a turbidity decrease due to shrinking of the PMC particles upon changes in their components' degrees of ionization. An increase in salt concentration caused a decrease in turbidity due to charge-screening-related shrinking of the PMC particles. The effects of pH and salt concentration on particle size were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy.     

Salt-induced structural changes in nucleosomes.

Nucleosomes and oligonucleosomes were prepared by digestion of human placental nuclei with staphlococcal nuclease and fractionated by gel filtration chromatography. The effect of increasing salt on the structure of nucleosomes was examined in the presence and absence of 10 mM MgCl2. Nucleosomes and oligonucleosomes are insoluble over a broad range of salt concentration. Nucleosomes are insoluble in larger than or equal to 120 mM (NH4)2SO4 containing 10 mM MgCl2 allowing analyses of changes in nucleosomal DNA by C.D. spectroscopy. Nucleosomes are insoluble in less than or equal to 120 mM (NH4)2SO4 containing 10 mM MgCl2 as demonstrated by turbidity measurements. We conclude that the insolubility of nucleosomes accompanies salt-induced structural changes possibly due to individual particle condensation. As the salt concentration is increased the nucleosomes condense and then relax at higher salt concentrations.     

Aggregation of recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen in Pichia pastoris

The combination of immunoaffinity and size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a powerful tool to analyze multiprotein particle assembly. This approach was used to investigate the source of aggregation of recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) detected in purified material. As HBsAg aggregation does not originate in the stresses, such as the concentration of HBsAg solutions, temperature and chaotropic agents, it is less probable that the HBsAg aggregate is produced during the process. To test whether aggregation takes place in vivo, crude yeast extract containing the expressed HBsAg was fractioned on a Sephacryl S-400 column just after cell disruption, and each fraction immunopurified individually. As a result, the HBsAg aggregate was isolated from a fraction corresponding to the elution of large particle aggregates only, not native HBsAg particles. It was biologically active, which demonstrates aggregate formation by specific assembly of partially or wholly folded HBsAg intermediates.

Conformational prerequisites for formation of amyloid fibrils from histones

We demonstrate that bovine core histones are natively unfolded proteins in solutions with low ionic strength due to their high net positive charge at pH 7.5. Using a variety of biophysical techniques we characterized their conformation as a function of pH and ionic strength, as well as correlating the conformation with aggregation and amyloid fibril formation. Tertiary structure was absent under all conditions except at pH 7.5 and high ionic strength. The addition of trifluoroethanol or high ionic strength induced significant alpha-helical secondary structure at pH 7.5. At low pH and high salt concentration, small-angle X-ray scattering and SEC HPLC indicate the histones are present as a hexadecamer of globular subunits. The secondary structure at low pH was independent of the ionic strength or presence of TFE, as judged by FTIR. The data indicate that histones are able to adopt five different relatively stable conformations; this conformational variability probably reflects, in part, their intrinsically disordered structure. Under most of the conditions studied the histones formed amyloid fibrils with typical morphology as seen by electron microscopy. In contrast to most aggregation/amyloidogenic systems, the kinetics of fibrillation showed an inverse dependence on histone concentration; we attribute this to partitioning to a faster pathway leading to non-fibrillar self-associated aggregates at higher protein concentrations. The rate of fibril formation was maximal at low pH, and decreased to zero by pH 10. The kinetics of fibrillation were very dependent on the ionic strength, increasing with increasing salt concentration, and showing marked dependence on the nature of the ions; interestingly Gdn.HCl increased the rate of fibrillation, although much less than NaCl. Different ions also differentially affected the rate of nucleation and the rate of fibril elongation.     

Construction and characterization of hybrid hepatitis B antigen particles carrying a poliovirus immunogen

The hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) has the unique property of assembling with cellular lipids into spherical or elongated particles of 22 nm diameter which are secreted by mammalian cells expressing HBsAg. We have studied the structural requirements for particle formation and secretion by creating in-phase insertions into different regions of the S gene of the hepatitis B virus, coding for HBsAg. Modified genes were integrated into an appropriate vector and expressed in mouse L cells. Various single and double inserts in the two major hydrophilic domains of HBsAg were compatible with particle synthesis and secretion. The level of secretion was influenced by the length of the insert, its primary structure, and the site of insertion into the HBsAg molecule. One of the inserted sequences was a synthetic DNA fragment encoding a continuous type 1 poliovirus neutralization epitope (the C3 epitope). Mammalian cells expressing the modified hepatitis B virus S gene secreted hybrid particles carrying the poliovirus antigen. The hybrid polio-HBsAg particles reacted with a monoclonal antibody specific for the C3 epitope and induced poliovirus neutralizing antibodies at low, but significant, titers in mice and at high titers in rabbits. However, the immune response to HBsAg was weaker to hybrid particles than to unmodified HBsAg particles. By cotransfection with two different plasmids carrying either modified or unmodified genes, we obtained phenotypically mixed particles containing both polio-HBsAg and HBsAg molecules. Inoculated into rabbits, the mixed particles induced high antibody titers against both poliovirus and HBsAg.     

Salt dependence, kinetic properties and catalytic mechanism of N-formylmethanofuran:tetrahydromethanopterin formyltransferase from the extreme thermophile Methanopyrus kandleri.

N-Formylmethanofuran(CHO-MFR):tetrahydromethanopterin(H4MPT) formyltransferase (formyltransferase) from the extremely thermophilic Methanopyrus kandleri was purified over 100-fold to apparent homogeneity with a 54% yield. The monomeric enzyme had an apparent molecular mass of 35 kDa. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the polypeptide was determined. The formyltransferase was found to be absolutely dependent on the presence of phosphate or sulfate salts for activity. The ability of salts to activate the enzyme decreased in the order K2HPO4 > (NH4)2SO4 > K2SO4 > Na2SO4 > Na2HPO4. The salts KCl, NaCl and NH4Cl did not activate the enzyme. The dependence of activity on salt concentration showed a sigmoidal curve. For half-maximal activity, 1 M K2HPO4 and 1.2 M (NH4)2SO4 were required. A detailed kinetic analysis revealed that phosphates and sulfates both affected the Vmax rather than the Km for CHO-MFR and H4MPT. At the optimal salt concentration and at 65 degrees C, the Vmax was 2700 U/mg (1 U = 1 mumol/min), the Km for CHO-MFR was 50 microM and the Km for H4MPT was 100 microM. At 90 degrees C, the temperature optimum of the enzyme, the Vmax was about 2.5-fold higher than at 65 degrees C. Thermostability as well as activity of formyltransferase was dramatically increased in the presence of salts, 1.5 M being required for optimal stabilization. The efficiency of salts in protecting formyltransferase from heat inactivation at 90 degrees C decreased in the order K2HPO4 = (NH4)2SO4 > KCl = NH4Cl = NaCl > Na2SO4 > Na2HPO4. The catalytic mechanism of formyltransferase was determined to be of the ternary-complex type. The properties of the enzyme from M. kandleri are compared with those of formyltransferase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, Methanosarcina barkeri and Archaeoglobus fulgidus.     

Multiple enzyme purifications from muscle extracts by using affinity-elution-chromatographic procedures.

1. Starting with (NH4)2SO4 fractions of muscle extracts, procedures for purifying four to six separate enzymes from each fraction by using affinity-elution-chromatographic techniques are described. 2. Schemes for purifying 12 separate enzymes from rabbit muscle, and eight from chicken muscle extracts, are included. In nearly all cases the overall procedure involves three steps: the initial (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, the ion-exchange chromatography with affinity elution of the enzyme, and gel filtration. The specific activities of the enzymes so purified are comparable with the highest values in the literature. 3. The five schemes described include illustrations of affinity elution of the separate enzymes at different pH values, at different ionic strengths and in combination with conventional gradient elution. They also include stepwise adsorption on columns at different pH values. 4. Separation of two electrophoretically differing forms of phosphoglycerate kinase was achieved by gradient affinity elution from CM-cellulose. The lower-pI form was eluted by a lower concentration of substrate than the higher-pI form.     

Salt effects on the denaturation of DNA. IV. A calorimetric study of the helix-coil conversion of the alternating copolymer poly[d(A-T)].

The enthalpy deltaH, entropy deltaS, and the temperature Tm of the conformational transition of poly[d (A-T)] from the ordered to the randomly oriented state have been determined at pH 6.8 with the help of an adiabatic differential scanning calorimeter in Na2SO4 solutions of increasing ionic strength. Spectrophotometric denaturation experiments supplemented the calorimetric measurements. All thermodynamic parameters were found to vary strongly with salt concentration: both deltaH and Tm increase linearly with the logarithm of the mean molal activity alpha plus or minus of Na2SO4. However, whereas the dependence of Tm on salt activity remains linear over the entire salt concentration range employed deltaH decreases abruptly in the most concentrated Na2SO4 solutions. The entropy of melting changes with salt concentration in a pattern similar to that displayed by deltaH. The data on deltaH as well as data derived from the maximum slopes of the calorimetric heat denaturation curves were used to calculate the cooperative length Lh, the stacking free energy epsilon, and the cooperativity parameter sigma of poly[d(A-T)] as a function of ionic strength. Lh decreases with increasing salt concentration whereas sigma increases. Epsilon assumes more positive values with increasing salt molality. These changes then are in agreement with the generally held belief that an increase in salt concentration leads to an increase in the "loop" content of the copolymer.
