Structure and Conformational Properties of d-Glucose/d-Galactose-Binding Protein in Crowded Milieu.
Conformational changes of d-glucose/d-galactose-binding protein (GGBP) were studied under molecular crowding conditions modeled by concentrated solutions of polyethylene glycols (PEG-12000, PEG-4000, and PEG-600), Ficoll-70, and Dextran-70, addition of which induced noticeable structural changes in the GGBP molecule. All PEGs promoted compaction of GGBP and lead to the increase in ordering of i...
متن کاملConformational stability and domain coupling in D-glucose/D-galactose-binding protein from Escherichia coli.
The monomeric D-glucose/D-galactose-binding protein (GGBP) from Escherichia coli (M(r) 33000) is a periplasmic protein that serves as a high-affinity receptor for the active transport and chemotaxis towards both sugars. The effect of D-glucose binding on the thermal unfolding of the GGBP protein at pH 7.0 has been measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), far-UV CD and intrinsic tryp...
متن کاملStructure and stability of recombinant bovine odorant-binding protein: III. Peculiarities of the wild type bOBP unfolding in crowded milieu
Contrary to the majority of the members of the lipocalin family, which are stable monomers with the specific OBP fold (a β-barrel consisting of a 8-stranded anti-parallel β-sheet followed by a short α-helical segment, a ninth β-strand, and a disordered C-terminal tail) and a conserved disulfide bond, bovine odorant-binding protein (bOBP) does not have such a disulfide bond and forms a domain-sw...
متن کاملTransport properties of the galactose-binding protein of Escherichia coli. Substrate-induced conformational change.
The galactose-binding protein, a necessary component of a bacterical transport system, is shown by three independent methods to undergo a conformational change upon binding of substrate. 1. A Lineweaver-Burk plot of the binding data obtained by equilibrium dialysis at a protein concentration of 0.4 mg per ml shows heterogenous behavior. Extrapolation of the data at low galactose concentrations ...
متن کاملEnzyme Activity in the Crowded Milieu
The cytosol of a cell is a concentrated milieu of a variety of different molecules, including small molecules (salts and metabolites) and macromolecules such as nucleic acids, polysaccharides, proteins and large macromolecular complexes. Macromolecular crowding in the cytosolic environment is proposed to influence various properties of proteins, including substrate binding affinity and enzymati...
