Ionic strength dependence of protein-polyelectrolyte interactions.
The effect of univalent electrolyte concentration on protein-polyelectrolyte complex formation has been measured by frontal analysis continuous capillary electrophoresis (FACCE) and turbidimetry for the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with a synthetic hydrophobically modified polyacid, for BSA with (porcine mucosal) heparin (Hp), a highly charged polyanion, and for Hp and insulin. All...
متن کاملProtein interactions and membrane geometry.
The difficulty in growing crystals for x-ray diffraction analysis has hindered the determination of membrane protein structures. However, this is changing with the advent of a new method for growing high quality membrane protein crystals from the lipidic cubic phase. Although successful, the mechanism underlying this method has remained unclear. Here, we present a theoretical analysis of the pr...
متن کاملMembrane composition-mediated protein-protein interactions.
The authors investigate membrane composition-mediated interactions between proteins adsorbed onto a two-component lipid bilayer close to critical demixing using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations and a phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory. The simulations consist of three-bead lipids and platelike proteins, which adsorb onto the membrane by binding preferentially to one of the two...
متن کاملCharacterization of membrane protein interactions by isothermal titration calorimetry.
Understanding the structure, folding, and interaction of membrane proteins requires experimental tools to quantify the association of transmembrane (TM) helices. Here, we introduce isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) to measure integrin αIIbβ3 TM complex affinity, to study the consequences of helix-helix preorientation in lipid bilayers, and to examine protein-induced lipid reorganization. P...
متن کاملDiscovering Domains Mediating Protein Interactions
Background: Protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information regarding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. The majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. Most of the former studies focus only on interacting domain pairs. However they do not consider the in...
