Studies on the Denaturation of Antibody
نویسنده
چکیده
The specific rate of inactivation of antitoxin in urea solutions, as measured by the Römer neutralization test with toxin, has been shown to be independent of the concentration of protein under the conditions studied. The amount of precipitate obtained in the quantitative precipitation test with toxin, however, increases greatly with increasing protein concentration during denaturation. The time during which the protein concentration is important in this respect has been shown to be the interval in which the urea is being dialyzed from the solutions. The meaning of the results is discussed.

Molecular dynamics studies on the denaturation of polyalanine in the presence of guanidinium chloride at low concentration
Molecular dynamic simulation is a powerful method that monitors all variations in the atomic level in explicit solvent. By this method we can calculate many chemical and biochemical properties of large scale biological systems. In this work all-atom molecular dynamics simulation of polyalanine (PA) was investigated in the presence of 0.224, 0.448, 0.673, 0.897 and 1.122 M of guanidinium chlorid...
متن کاملStudies on the Denaturation of Antibody Ii. the Effect of Protein Concentration on Ti4e Rate of Denaturation of Diphtheria Antitoxin by Urea
Although in a recent study (1) the susceptibility of diphtheria antitoxin to the denaturing action of urea was apparently established, the question of the fundamental nature of the reaction remains essentially unsolved. Since the action of urea probably involves a partial unfolding of the polypeptide chains of proteins, the lability of antibody in urea suggests that the antibody structure resid...

Background and purpose: Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a community-associated pathogen that is so common in hospitals. Antibiotic resistance and poor clinical outcome provide great reasons for using immunization strategies based on antibodies. The aim of this study was to investigate passive immunity using recombinant anti-MRSA ScaF antibody in a mouse model. Materials...
متن کاملHow Do Palladium Complexes Affect on Coil Structure of Human Serum Albumin in the Presence of Carbon Nanotube? A Molecular Dynamics Study
To investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([Pd(phen)(R-gly)]NO3, R = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. These drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. Human serum albumin is also ...

Recently, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, the DNA of cytomegalovirus was detected from depigmented white patches in patients with vitiligo. The reactivation of infection and occasional anti-CMV IgM circulating among patients infected by cytomegalovirus has been reported for years. We have studied 26 patients with clinical signs and symptoms of vitiligo, some of whom had a ...
