烷基聚氧乙烯醚硫酸钠对肌酸激酶的变性及复性

系统的研究了十二烷基聚氧乙烯醚硫酸钠Ｃ１２Ｈ２５（ＯＣ２Ｈ４）ｎＳＯ４Ｎａ（ｎ＝０,１,３,５,７;记为Ｃ１２ＥｎＳ）对肌酸激酶的活力和构象的影响。结果表明：随着氧乙烯基个数（ｎ）的增加,Ｃ１２ＥｎＳ对Ｃ．Ｋ．的活力破坏逐步减小;Ｃ１２ＥｎＳ引起Ｃ．Ｋ活力的丧失明显早于可测构象的变化。ＣＫ经Ｃ１２ＥｎＳ变性后,稀释时即可完全复性。Ｃ１２Ｅ７Ｓ不仅对Ｃ．Ｋ的变性能力强（１０ｍＭ就使Ｃ．Ｋ完全失活）;而且在１０－９５℃的温度范围内,能阻止Ｃ．Ｋ聚集沉淀。Ｃ１２ＥｎＳ是Ｃ．Ｋ的高效可逆变性剂。

一些理化因子对α淀粉酶构象与活力的影响

用荧光光谱,紫外差示光谱和ＣＤ谱研究了一些理化因子对枯草芽孢杆菌８６３１５α淀粉酶的构象与活力的影响,实验表明,酸变性和碱变性所引起的酶构象变化是不同的;乙醇不降低α淀粉酶活力,但使其构象发生较大变化,α螺旋度从天然酶的２６,１％降到２１．８％,其构象变化不引起活性中心的改变;酶在７０℃处理１０ｍｉｎ后,由原来紧密构象变为松散构象,α螺旋度从２６．１％降到９．０％,酶活性完全丧失;而在０．０２ｍｏｌ／ＬＣａＣｌ_２和０．０２ｍｏｌ／ＬＮａＣｌ的共同存在下,７０℃处理１０ｍｉｎ,酶活性不变,其荧光光谱和ＣＤ谱接近于天然酶,所以,ＣａＣ_ｌ２和ＮａＣｌ能保护α淀粉酶的构象,使之不受热变性。

三氯化镧脑室注射对下丘脑腹内侧核放电及血清中生长素 …

目的和方法：将不同剂量三氯化镧ＬａＣｌ３注射大鼠侧脑室,观察下丘脑腹内侧（ＶＭＮ）放电频率和血清生长素（ＧＨ）含量,研究ＬａＣｌ３对神经内分泌的影响。结果：小剂量（０．００５μｍｏｌ）注射后可使ＶＭＮ中ＧＨ相关神经元放明显增加,并可引起血清中ＧＨ含量的增加;而大剂量ＬａＣｌ３（０．５μｍｏｌ）组,ＶＭＮ放电呈抑制反应,此组动物血清中ＧＨ含量呈减少趋势,明显低于小剂量组（Ｐ〈０．０１）,但与生理盐水     

GM3对重建Gs与AC偶联功能的影响

将神经节苷脂ＧＭ３（Ｍｏｎｏｓｉａｌｏｇａｎｇｌｉｏｓｉｄｅ－ＧＭ３）通过保温法掺入到含激活型Ｇ蛋白（ＳｔｉｍｕｌａｔｏｒｙＧＴＰ－ｂｉｎｄｉｎｇｐｒｏｔｅｉｎ,Ｇｓ）与腺苷酸环化酶（ＡｄｅｎｙｌｙｌＣｙｃｌａｓｅ,ＡＣ）的脂酶体中,研究了ＧＭ３对Ｇｓ和ＡＣ偶联功能的影响。实验结果表明,在４－１０μｍｏｌ／Ｌ浓度范围的ＧＭ３增加ＡＣ的基础活力;在高于４μｍｏｌ／Ｌ时,ＧＭ３可显著抑制Ｇｓ激活ＡＣ的能力;而在ＧＭ３浓度高于１００μｍｏｌ／Ｌ的条件下,Ｇｓ结合ＧＴＰγＳ（Ｇｕａｎｏｓｉｎｅ５＇－Ｏ－（３－ｔｈｉｏｔｒｉｐｈｏｓｐｈａｔｅ））的活力受到明显抑制。随外源ＧＭ３浓度的增加,ＧＭ３对Ｇｓ激活ＡＣ的能力与对ＡＣ基础活力的影响似乎并不完全一致。这些结果提示,Ｇｓ与ＡＣ的解偶联对较低浓度的ＧＭ３的影响更加敏感。用荧光探剂ＭＣ５４０标记脂酶体,测量其荧光光谱的结果显示,随着ＧＭ３浓度增加,ＭＣ５４０的荧光强度增强,这说明外源性的ＧＭ３的掺入使膜脂质分子头部的堆积变得更加疏松。这可能提示,ＧＭ３介导的膜脂物理状态的变化是调节Ｇｓ与ＡＣ偶联功能的重要因素之一。

Effect of hydrostatic pressure on unfolding of alpha-lactalbumin: volumetric equivalence of the molten globule and unfolded state

The effect of pressure on the unfolding of bovine alpha-lactalbumin was investigated by ultraviolet absorption methods. The change of molar volume associated with unfolding, deltaV, was measured in the presence or absence of guanidine hydrochloride at pH 7. The deltaV was estimated to be -63 cm3/mol in the absence of a chemical denaturant. While in the presence of guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl), it was found that deltaV was -66 cm3/mol at 25 degrees C and was independent of the concentration of GuHCl, despite the fact that the molten globule fraction in the total unfolding product decreased with the increase of GuHCl concentration. The results indicate that the volume of alpha-lactalbumin only changes at the transition from a native to a molten globule state, and almost no volume change has been found during the transition from a molten globule to the unfolded state.     

Structural characteristics of thermostable immunogenic outer membrane protein from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi

In this work, we explored the acid-induced unfolding pathway of non-porin outer membrane protein (OMP), an immunogenic protein from Salmonella Typhi, by monitoring the conformational changes over a pH range of 1.0–7.0 by circular dichroism, intrinsic fluorescence, ANS binding, acrylamide quenching, and dynamic light scattering. The spectroscopic measurements showed that OMP in its native state at pH 7.0 exists in more stable and compact conformation. In contrast, at pH 2.0, OMP retains substantial amount of secondary structure, disrupted side chain interactions, increased hydrodynamic radii, and nearly four-fold increase in ANS fluorescence with respect to the native state, indicating that MG state exists at pH 2.0. Quenching of tryptophan fluorescence by acrylamide further confirmed the accumulation of a partially unfolded state between native and unfolded state. The effect of pH on the conformation and thermostability of OMP points towards its heat resistance at neutral pH (T _m?~?69 °C at pH 7.0, monitored by change in MRE_{222 nm}). Acid unfolded state was also characterized by the lack of a cooperative thermal transition. All these results suggested that acid-induced unfolded state of OMP at pH 2.0 represented the molten globule state. The chemical denaturation studies with GuHCl and urea as denaturants showed dissimilar results. The chemical unfolding experiments showed that in both far-UV CD and fluorescence measurements, GuHCl is more efficient than urea. GuHCl is characterized by low C _m (~1 M), while urea is characterized by high C _m (~3 M). The fully unfolded states were reached at 2 M GuHCl and 4 M urea concentration, respectively. This study adds to several key considerations of importance in the development of therapeutic agents against typhoid fever for clinical purposes.     

RNA structure analysis using T2 ribonuclease: detection of pH and metal ion induced conformational changes in yeast tRNAPhe.

We describe the use of an enzymic probe of RNA structure, T2 ribonuclease, to detect alterations of RNA conformation induced by changes in Mg2+ ion concentration and pH. T2 RNase is shown to possess single-strand specificity similar to S1 nuclease. In contrast to S1 nuclease, T2 RNase does not require divalent cations for activity. We have used this enzyme to investigate the role of Mg2+ ions in the stabilization of RNA conformation. We find that, at neutral pH, drastic reduction of the available divalent metal ions results in a decrease in the ability of T2 RNase to cleave the anticodon loop of tRNAPhe. This change accompanies an increase in the cleavage of the molecule in the T psi C and in the dihydrouracil loops. Similar treatment of Tetrahymena thermophila 5S ribosomal RNA shows that changes in magnesium ion concentration does not have a pronounced effect on the cleavage pattern produced by T2 RNase. T2 RNase activity has a broader pH range than S1 nuclease and can be used to study pH induced conformational shifts in RNA structure. We find that upon lowering the pH from 7.0 to 4.5, nucleotide D16 in the dihydrouracil loop of tRNAPhe becomes highly sensitive to T2 RNase hydrolysis. This change accompanies a decrease in the relative sensitivity of the anticodon loop to the enzyme. The role of metal ion and proton concentrations in maintenance of the functional conformation of tRNAPhe is discussed.     

Interaction of cisplatin with methionine- and histidine-containing peptides: competition between backbone binding,macrochelation and peptide cleavage

The pH- and time-dependent reaction of cis-[PtCl2(NH3)2] with the methionine- and histidine-containing peptides H-Gly-Met-OH, H-Gly-Gly-Met-OH, Ac-His-Gly-Met-OH, and Ac-His-(Ala)3-Met-OH at 313 K has been investigated by ion-pairing reverse phase HPLC and NMR spectroscopy. For equimolar solutions (c=0.8 mM, pH approximately equals 3 or 8.8), initial formation of the kinetically favored S-bound complex is followed by relatively rapid metallation of the neighboring methionine amide nitrogen NM to afford a kappa2NM,S six-membered chelate. The strong trans effect of the methionine S then favors facile NH3 substitution, leading to generation of tridentate complexes such as [Pt(H-Gly-MetH(-1)-OH)-kappa3NG,NM,S)(NH3)]+ or [Pt(H-Ac-His-GlyH(-1)-MetH(-1)-OH-kappa3NG,NM,S)(NH3)]. In the case of H-Gly-Gly-Met-OH, this reaction is accompanied by loss of a second NH3 ligand in alkaline solution to generate the tetradentate kappa4NG1,NG2,NM,S species. In contrast, cleavage of the backbone C(O)-N bond to the second metallated amide nitrogen after t>100 h is common to the tridentate complexes of the tri- and pentapeptides at pH<5. Although an imidazole-coordinated kappa2N3H,S macrochelate is formed throughout the whole range 2.5 < or = pH < or = 10 for Ac-His-Gly-Met-OH, it slowly decays (t=10-1000 h) to the thermodynamically more stable tridentate kappa3NG,NM,S complex. All major final products were separated and fully characterized by NMR and MS.     

无花果蛋白酶在胍溶液中的分子折叠与活力变化研究

本文研究无花果蛋白酶（ＥＣ．３．４．４．１２）在不同浓度盐酸胍溶液中分子构象与活力变化关系。酶的内源荧光光谱,圆二色光谱与酶活力的变化表明：荧光光谱呈现二个明显的变化区域,低浓度胍（低于２ｍｏｌ／Ｌ）中,荧光发射峰基本不变,但荧光强度随胍浓度上升,随胍浓度断续增大（高于２ｍｏｌ／Ｌ）,酶的最大发射波长明显红移。当胍浓度低于１ｍｏｌ／Ｌ时,不仅不会使酶失活,反而使酶激活,当胍浓度高于１ｍｏｌ／Ｌ以上时,酶逐渐失活,使酶完全失活的胍浓度为６ｍｏｌ／Ｌ酶的圆二色光谱也随着胍浓度的改变而发生复杂的变化。将荧光变化,ＣＤ谱变化及活力改变结合起来,表明活力的激活与构象的明显变化似是同步发生的,从另一角度进一步说明酶活性部位柔性是充分表现酶活力所必需。     

Temperature and guanidine hydrochloride dependence of the structural stability of ribonuclease T1.

The thermal unfolding of ribonuclease T1 has been studied by high-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry as a function of temperature, [GuHCl], and scanning rate. The destabilizing effect of GuHCl has revealed that the kinetics of the unfolding transition become extremely slow as the transition temperature decreases. At pH 5.3 and zero GuHCl, the unfolding transition is centered at 59.1 degrees C; upon increasing the GuHCl concentration, the transition occurs at lower temperatures and exhibits progressively slower kinetics; so, for example, at 3 M GuHCl, the transition temperature is 40.6 degrees C and is characterized by a time constant close to 10 min. Under all conditions studied (pH 5.3, pH 7.0, [GuHCl] < 3 M), the transition is thermodynamically reversible. The slow kinetics of the transition induce significant distortions in the shape of the transition profiles that can be mistakenly interpreted as deviations from a two-state mechanism. Determination of the thermodynamic parameters from the calorimetric data has required the development of an analytical formalism that explicitly includes the thermodynamics as well as the kinetics of the transition. Using this formalism, it is shown that a two-state slow-kinetics model is capable of accurately describing the structural stability of ribonuclease T1 as a function of temperature, GuHCl concentration, and scanning rate. Multidimensional analysis of the calorimetric data has been used to estimate the intrinsic thermodynamic parameters for protein stability, the interaction parameters with GuHCl, and the time constant for the unfolding transition and its temperature dependence.     

α-淀粉酶在盐酸胍和碳酸胍变性中有关胍基作用的研究

利用紫外差谱、荧光光谱和园二色谱法对比地研究了α-淀粉酶盐酸胍和碳酸胍变性,分析了两种胍变性明显差异的原因。通过等同的胍基浓度下,α-淀粉酶两种胍变性的构象变化与活性关系的实验,表明同等摩尔浓度的两种胍盐变性能力上的明显差异并不主要是由于它们胍基含量上的不同。将盐酸胍从中性pH(6.5)调至碱性pH(10.4),其变性能力大增,紫外差谱与碳酸胍变性相似,出现了290nm的正肩和296nm的正峰,与此同时,酶的荧光强度大大降低,大部分酶活性丧失。由此推论,两种胍变性能力的明显差异的重要原因之一是在碱性介质中胍基的变性能力明显增强,并分析了其增强的原因。     

On the denaturation of porcine erythrocyte catalase with alkali, urea, and guanidine hydrochloride in relation to its subunit structure

The dissociation of porcine erythrocyte catalase [EC 1.11.1.6] into subunits on denaturation with alkali, GuHCl and urea was investigated by following the changes in hydrodynamic properties, absorption and CD spectra in the Soret region and inactivation of the enzyme. It was found that dissociation proceeded in an "all or none" manner from the native tetramer (molecular weight, ca. 250,000) into identical 1/4-sized monomers (molecular weight, ca. 54,000 with alkali, 65,000 with urea and 71,000 with GuHCl) as estimated by ultracentrifugal analyses. On this dissociation, the sedimentation coefficient decreased from about 11S to 5.1 - 3.7S, and absorption spectra in the Soret region decreased to about 40% of the native level and showed a broad band around 365-375 nm and a shoulder around 415-420 nm; these changes were accompanied by complete loss of enzyme activity. The change in enzyme activity correlated well with that of absorption and CD spectra in the Soret region, depending on denaturation time, alkaline pH used and concentration of both denaturants. The reassociated catalase obtained by removing urea by dialysis was characterized by recovery of distinct CD bands in the Soret and near ultraviolet regions, although the partial refolding of alpha-helical conformation occurred without recovery of enzyme activity. These results indicate that the conformational changes and dissociation process of catalase into subunits can be monitored spectrophotometrically in relation to enzyme activity, and that subtle conformations near the heme groups and polypeptide backbone play an important role in maintaining full enzyme activity of the catalase molecule.     

Sequential conformation change and activation of chicken liver dihydrofolate reductase in low concentration of guanidine hydrochloride

The conformation changes of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) from chicken liver in guanidine hy-drochloride were monitored by protein intrinsic fluorescence, hydrophobic fluorescence probe TNS and limited proteol-ysis by proteinase K. The kinetics of the enzyme denaturation were also studied and compared with its activity changes. It was indicated by the enhanced fluorescence of 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene (TNS) that a subtle conforma-tional change of the enzyme in dilute GuHCl parallels GuHCl-induced activation. At GuHCl concentration higher than 0.75 mol/L, the conformational change can be detected by increased susceptibility of the enzyme to proteinase K, but no significant gross conformational change of the enzyme molecule is observed by intrinsic fluorescence up to a GuHCl concentration of 1.2 mol/L. The results suggest that the denaturation of DHFR by GuHCl does not follow strictly the two-state model. The enzyme seems to open up sequentially with increasing concentrations of denaturants, mainly at th
