Structure-energy relations in hen egg white lysozyme observed during refolding from a quenched unfolded state.
We use infrared spectroscopy to study the evolution of protein folding intermediate structures on arbitrarily slow time scales by rapidly quenching thermally unfolded hen egg white lysozyme in a glassy matrix, followed by reheating of the protein to refold; upon comparison with differential scanning calorimetric experiments, low-temperature structural changes that precede the formation of energ...
متن کاملHen Egg - white Lysozyme Crystals
Proton tautomerism is a general phenomenon in organic molecules and plays a vital role in many fields of chemistry and biochemistry. The tautomerism of salicylideneanilines [eq(1)] has attracted a considerable attention because it is closely related to thermoand photochromism. Salicylideneanilines greatly favor the enol form over the cis-keto form in the gas phase. We demonstrate here that the ...
متن کاملStudy the Interaction of Ni Complex of Tetradentate Schiff Base Ligand with HEN Egg White Lysozyme
AbstractInteraction of Ni complex(Salen= N, N´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. The protein binding affinity of Ni complex was found to be (3.0×103M−1). The binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 M...
متن کاملCharacterization of the unfolding pathway of hen egg white lysozyme.
After the recent discovery of a ribonuclease A unfolding intermediate [Kiefhaber, T., et al. (1995) Nature 375, 513-515], we investigated the unfolding pathway of hen egg white lysozyme. At pH* 4.00 with D2O at 10 degrees C and 6 M guanidinium chloride, unfolding shows a single, slow kinetic phase, with a relaxation time of 3300 s when monitored by circular dichroism (CD). Exchange of the trypt...
متن کاملA study of renaturation of reduced hen egg white lysozyme. Enzymically active intermediates formed during oxidation of the reduced protein.
The material obtained from reduced hen egg white lysozyme after complete air oxidation at pH 8.0 and 37 degrees has yielded, by gel filtration on a Bio-Gel P-30 column, enzymically active species and an enzymically inactive form which eluted sooner than the active species but later than expected for a dimer of lysozyme. Reduced lysozyme also elutes at the same position as this inactive material...
