Why Do Tetrapropylammonium Chloride and Sulphate Salts Destabilize the Native State of Globular Proteins?
It has recently been shown that aqueous solutions of tetrapropylammonium chloride and sulphate salts destabilize the folded conformation of Trp-peptides (Dempsey et al., 2011). This result is rationalized by the application of a statistical thermodynamic approach (Graziano, 2010). It is shown that the magnitude of the solvent-excluded volume effect, the main contribution for the native state st...
متن کاملComplex ion effects on polypeptide conformational stability: chloride and sulfate salts of guanidinium and tetrapropylammonium.
The effects of chloride and sulfate salts of tetrapropylammonium (TPA(+)) and guanidinium (Gdm(+)) on the conformational stabilities of tryptophan zipper (trpzip) and α-helical (alahel) peptides were measured by circular dichroism spectroscopy. Like Gdm(+), TPA(+) interacts with the planar tryptophan indole group, perturbing the conformational stability of trpzip peptides. TPA(+) effects are la...
متن کاملcontribution of setting to the study of characters and the main idea in e. brontes: wuthering heights and t. hardys: return of the native.
this thesis aims to adduce an unmitigated and comprehensive explication concerning the relationship of three significant elements of fiction: setting, chracter and theme. my research is basically placed on two outstanding novels of the 19th century: emily brontes wuthering heights and thomas hardys return of the native. my endeavour lies in studying the correlation among the three above-mention...
15 صفحه اولDeconstructing the native state: energy landscapes, function, and dynamics of globular proteins.
Proteins are highly complex molecules with features exquisitely selected by nature to carry out essential biological functions. Physical chemistry and polymer physics provide us with the tools needed to make sense of this complexity. Upon translation, many proteins fold to a thermodynamically stable form known as the native state. The native state is not static, but consists of a hierarchy of c...
متن کاملMolecular crowding enhances native state stability and refolding rates of globular proteins.
The presence of macromolecules in cells geometrically restricts the available space for poplypeptide chains. To study the effects of macromolecular crowding on folding thermodynamics and kinetics, we used an off-lattice model of the all-beta-sheet WW domain in the presence of large spherical particles whose interaction with the polypeptide chain is purely repulsive. At all volume fractions, phi...
