Thermal and structural stability of adsorbed proteins.
Experimental evidence suggests that proteins adsorbed to hydrophobic surfaces at low coverages are stabilized relative to the bulk. For larger coverages, proteins unfold and form beta-sheets. We performed computer simulations on model proteins and found that: 1), For weakly adsorbing surfaces, unfolded conformations lose more entropy upon adsorption than folded ones. 2), The melting temperature...
متن کاملEffect of Adsorption Condition on Thermal Stability of Proteins Adsorbed onto Biomass Charcoal Powder
Authors have found out that bamboo charcoal powder (BCP), which is prepared from bamboo wastes by pyrolysis at low temperatures, is very useful as a carrier for the thermal stabilization of proteins. Hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) and α-chymotrypsin (CT) were effectively adsorbed onto BCP. The thermal stability of BCP-adsorbed HEWL was strongly dependent upon the adsorption conditions such as so...
متن کاملThermal stability of membrane-bound proteins
nanoDSF, the miniaturized differential scanning fluorimetry technology, is a revolutionary method to determine the thermostability of proteins by following changes in their intrinsic fluorescence. In this comparative study, the Prometheus NT.48 was used to determine the thermal stability of the membrane esterase PA2949 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa in presence of various detergents. The detergent...
متن کاملOsmolyte-Induced Folding and Stability of Proteins: Concepts and Characterization
It is well-known that the typical protein’s three-dimensional structure is relatively unstable in harsh conditions. A practical approach to maintain the folded state and thus improve the stability and activity of proteins in unusual circumstances is to directly apply stabilizing substances such as osmolytes to the protein-containing solutions. Osmolytes as natural occurring organic molecules ty...
