Structural insights into the effects of charge-reversal substitutions at the surface of horseradish peroxidase
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP), has gained significant interests in biotechnology, especially in biosensor field and diagnostic test kits. Hence, its solvent-exposed lysine residues 174, 232, and 241 have been frequently modified with the aim of improving its stability and catalytic efficiency. In this computational study, we investigated the effects of Lys-to-Glu substitutions on HRP structure t...
متن کاملLike-charge attraction between polyelectrolytes induced by counterion charge density waves.
Electrostatics in aqueous media is commonly understood in terms of screened Coulomb interactions, where like-charged objects, such as polyelectrolytes, always repel. These intuitive expectations are based on mean field theories, such as the Poisson-Boltzmann formalism, which are routinely used in colloid science and computational biology [Israelachvili, J. (1992) Intermolecular and Surface Forc...
متن کاملCharge inversion on membranes induced by multivalent-counterion fluctuations
Based on the two state model, we study the condensation of counterions on oppositely charged membranes in the presence of monovalent salts. Using the Gaussian approximation, we evaluate the contribution of two-dimensional charge fluctuation to the free energy, from which the number of condensed counterions is determined self-consistently. It is shown that charge inversion can occur upon the add...
متن کاملCharge fluctuations and counterion condensation.
We predict a condensation phenomenon in an overall neutral system, consisting of a single charged plate and its oppositely charged counterions. Based on the "two-fluid" model, in which the counterions are divided into a "free" and a "condensed" fraction, we argue that for high surface charge, fluctuations can lead to a phase transition in which a large fraction of counterions is condensed. Furt...
متن کاملThe Effect of Bubble Surface Charge on Phonophoresis
It is over several decades that ultrasound is used to enhance the transdermal drug delivery (phonphoresis). The mechanism of the enhancement is not fully understood and the ability of ultrasound on the enhancement for some drugs is unclear. The effect of continuous wave 870 KHz ultrasound at intensity of 1 W/cm 2 for 15 minutes on transdermal absorption of piroxicam from solution and gel formu...
