Immunochemical studies on thermal denaturation of ovomucoid 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The thermal denaturation of ovomucoid was investigated by immunochemical methods, namely immunoprecipitation analyses and antibody-Sepharose 4B column chromatography. In the immunoprecipitation analyses, heated ovomucoid (90 degrees C, 90 min, pH 7.2) required about twice the antigen addition of the native protein to approach maximal precipitation with specific antibody, and the maximal immunoprecipitation was decreased to 80% of that by native ovomucoid. However, heated protein inhibited the binding of antibody with native ovomucoid, and 100% inhibition was attained at about 4-times the antigen addition necessary for the native protein. Heated ovomucoid (100 degrees C, 120 min) showed little immunoprecipitation and inhibition. To ovomucoid antigenicity was diminished more slowly than the trypsin inhibitory activity by heating, e.g., heated ovomucoid (90 degrees C, 120 min) retained more than 30% of the antigenicity but little trypsin inhibitory activity. By passing through the immunoaffinity column, heated ovomucoid (90 degrees C, 90 min) was separated into two fractions, either with (fraction II) or without (fraction I) antigenicity. Fraction II contained smaller fractions of ordered secondary structure than native ovomucoid, and trypsin inhibitory activity of fraction II was only 24% of the native one. These results indicated that thermally denatured ovomucoid was heterogeneous regarding the conformational damage caused by heating, and the structure around some antigenic sites in an ovomucoid molecule was retained even after the backbone conformation was partially destroyed and trypsin inhibitory activity was lost. 相似文献

The kinetics of thermal denaturation of a biliprotein, C-phycocyanin (C-PC) isolated from Spirulina platensis were studied at different pH values, ranging from 4.0 to 8.0. The denaturation of C-PC follows the first order kinetics and rate constant at pH 5.0 and temperature 55 degrees C is found to be 4.37 x 10(-5) s(-1), which increases to 5.46 x 10(-1) s(-1) at pH 7.0. The denaturation rate is much higher at 65 degrees C and pH 7.0 (7.96 x 10(-4)), as compared to at pH 5.0 (1.46 x 10(-4)). The thermal stability of C-PC is more at pH 5.0, as compared to other pH values. The observed differences in entropy values at pH 5.0, as compared to other pH values indicate a considerably close fit structure of the protein at pH 5.0, which increases the stability of native structure, even at higher temperature (65 degrees C). 相似文献

Human placental alkaline phosphatase is a membrane-anchored dimeric protein. Unfolding of the enzyme by guanidinium chloride (GdmCl) caused a decrease of the fluorescence intensity and a large red-shifting of the protein fluorescence maximum wavelength from 332 to 346 nm. The fluorescence changes were completely reversible upon dilution. GdmCl induced a clear biphasic fluorescence spectrum change, suggesting that a three-state unfolding mechanism with an intermediate state was involved in the denaturation process. The half unfolding GdmCl concentrations, [GdmCl]0.5, corresponding to the two phases were 1.45 M and 2.50 M, respectively. NaCl did not cause the same effect as GdmCl, indicating that the GdmCl-induced biphasic denaturation is not a salt effect. The decrease in fluorescence intensity was monophasic, corresponding to the first phase of the denaturation process with [GdmCl]0.5 = 1.37 M and reached a minimum at 1.5 M GdmCl, where the enzyme remained completely active. The enzymatic activity lost started at 2.0 M GdmCl and was monophasic but coincided with the second-phase denaturation with [GdmCl]0.5 = 2.46 M. Inorganic phosphate provides substantial protection of the enzyme against GdmCl inactivation. Determining the molecular weight by sucrose-density gradient ultracentrifugation revealed that the enzyme gradually dissociates in both phases. Complete dissociation occurred at [GdmCl] > 3 M. The dissociated monomers reassociated to dimers after dilution of the GdmCl concentration. Refolding kinetics for the first-phase denaturation is first-order but not second-order. The biphasic phenomenon thereby was a mixed dissociation-denaturation process. A completely folded monomer never existed during the GdmCl denaturation. The biphasic denaturation curve thereby clearly demonstrates an enzymatically fully active intermediate state, which could represent an active-site structure intact and other structure domains partially melted intermediate state.

In the presence of glutaric acid, N2,N2'-adipodihydrazido-bis(N6-carbonylmethyl-NAD+)(bis-NAD+ ) forms cross-links between molecules of glutamate dehydrogenase, resulting in precipitation. The dependence of this process on bis-NAD+ and enzyme concentration has been investigated. This procedure has been shown to be effective in the purification of glutamate dehydrogenase from rat and ox liver, and a procedure is presented in which this affinity precipitation procedure is used instead of the affinity chromatography used in an earlier method (McCarthy, A.D., Walker, J.M. and Tipton, K.F. (1980) Biochem. J. 191, 605-611). The ox liver enzyme prepared in this way had not suffered the limited proteolysis that occurs during the preparation of the enzyme by other commonly used procedures. After the purified enzyme had been denatured by treatment with urea, guanidine hydrochloride, or low pH, no recovery of activity could be demonstrated following dilution or, in the last case, dialysis. 相似文献

The alkaline phosphatase activities (APA) and phosphorus fractions in activated sludge during wastewater treatment were studied. Our results showed that the phosphorus concentration and fractions in activated sludge were highly correlated with the characteristics of influents. Inorganic phosphorus (IP) and non-apatite inorganic phosphorus (NAIP) were the main phosphorus fractions of sludge. A larger phosphorus concentration was found in activated sludge due to the more readily mobilizable and bio-available forms. The APA in sludge was directly correlated with mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) in activated sludge. The APA in the sludge is implicated the depletion of organic phosphorus forms in sludge, whilst also implying its less inhibition of inorganic phosphorus in sludge. The APA and phosphorus fractions in different sludge samples from the same wastewater treatment plant were quite stable. This stability shows their tight interactions in sludge. 相似文献
