The hydrodynamic properties of the C-reactive protein in solution (pH 6.8) were studied using quasi-elastic light scattering and size-exclusion liquid chromatography. It was shown that the solution containing the C-reactive protein represents a polydisperse system. The values of the translation diffusion coefficient and the apparent molecular weight of the C-reactive protein in solution at pH 6.8 were determined. The values of the translation diffusion coefficient, molecular weight and the hydration radius obtained suggest that the native pentameric C-reactive protein is the major form of the protein in solution at pH 6.8. 相似文献

The hydrodynamic properties of the C-reactive protein (CRP) at different pH were studied using quasi-elastic light scattering, size-exclusion liquid chromatography, and nonreducing gel electrophoresis. It was shown that a CRP solution at pH 5.0-7.2 presents a polydisperse system the major component of which is the native pentameric CRP. At pH 4.0-4.5, CRP exists in two states having different hydrodynamic properties: the native pentameric form with a molecular mass of 120 kDa and with the hydrodynamic radius of 4.03 nm and high-molecular-weight aggregates with a wide range of their molecular weight distribution. The interaction of the C-reactive protein with monoclonal antibodies to it indicates that conformation-dependent surface epitopes of the protein lose the native structure at pH 5.0-5.5. The aggregation of CRP is an irreversible process, which begins in a narrow pH range of pH 5.0-4.5 and is not accompanied by the dissociation into subunits but is determined by intermolecular interactions of its quasi-native pentamers. 相似文献

The molecular mass and sedimentation coefficient of native C-reactive protein in solution were determined by analytical ultracentrifugation in the presence and absence of calcium ions. Pentameric C-reactive protein was shown to be the major macroscopic form of this protein in solution. The removal of calcium ions from solution caused decompaction of the protein accompanied by changes in its hydrodynamic parameters. The sedimentation coefficient s

z obtained from sedimentation data demonstrated that the solution of highly purified protein was not homogeneous. As shown by intermolecular crosslinking, the solution also contained the 241-kDa decamer of C-reactive protein (9.5S) as a separate macroscopic form, whose share hardly reached 10% in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+ and increased after removal of calcium ions. The decamers were shown to result from intermolecular association of the pentamers. 相似文献

Aflatoxins are polyketide-derived secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus spp. The toxic effects of aflatoxins have adverse
consequences for human health and agricultural economics. The aflR gene, a regulatory gene for aflatoxin biosynthesis, encodes a
protein containing a zinc-finger DNA-binding motif. AFLR-Protein three-dimensional model was generated using Robetta server.
The modeled AFLR-Protein was further optimization and validation using Rampage. In the simulations, we monitored the
backbone atoms and the C-α-helix of the modeled protein. The low RMSD and the simulation time indicate that, as expected, the
3D structural model of AFLR-protein represents a stable folding conformation. This study paves the way for generating computer
molecular models for proteins whose crystal structures are not available and which would aid in detailed molecular mechanism of
inhibition of aflatoxin. 相似文献

Visualization of molecular structures aids in the understanding of structural and functional roles of biological macromolecules.
Macromolecular transport between the cell nucleus and cytoplasm is facilitated by the nuclear pore complex (NPC). The ring
structure of the NPC is large and contains several distinct proteins (nucleoporins) which function as a selective gate for the passage
of certain molecules into and out of the nucleus. In this note we demonstrate the utility of a python code that allows direct
mapping of the physiochemical properties of the constituent nucleoporins on the scaffold of the yeast NPC׳s cytoplasmic view. We
expect this tool to be useful for researchers to visualize the NPC based on their physiochemical properties and how it alters when
specific mutations are introduced in one or more of the nucleoporins. The code developed using Python is available freely from the
authors. 相似文献

The molecular mass and sedimentation coefficient of native C-reactive protein in solution were determined by analytical ultracentrifugation in the presence and absence of calcium ions. Pentameric C-reactive protein was shown to be the major macroscopic form of this protein in solution. The removal of calcium ions from solution caused decompaction of the protein accompanied by changes in its hydrodynamic parameters. The sedimentation coefficient s20(0), w of pentameric C-reactive protein in solution containing 2 mM--Ca2+ (6.6S) exceeded that for C-reactive protein in solution containing 2 mM EDTA (6.4S). Analysis of average molecular masses Mw and Mz obtained from sedimentation data demonstrated that the solution of highly purified protein was not homogeneous. As shown by intermolecular crosslinking, the solution also contained the 241-kDa decamer of C-reactive protein (9.5S) as a separate macroscopic form, whose share hardly reached 10% in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+ and increased after removal of calcium ions.

Problems presented by genera, or small groups of genera, which have been given family rank are reviewed, and the genera are divided into a number of categories according to the closeness of their affinity to other genera or families. Satellite genera that stand in close relation to families should be united with them. Binary families, that have been divided into two (or more) related families, should be re–united. Families connected by linking genera, should, logically, be united but practical considerations usually prevent this. Clusters of diverse but more or less distantly related genera present unusual problems, being treated either as several, often monogeneric families or as a loosely structured family. Truly isolated genera must be given family and often ordinal rank. 相似文献
