The Crystal-Solution Problem of Sperm Whale Myoglobin
The central question to be discussed in this paper is whether the structure established for sperm whale myoglobin in the crystalline state is the same as that of the protein in solution. As judged by its ultraviolet optical rotatory dispersion, the helical content of metmyoglobin in solution does not differ from that in the crystal, 77 per cent. Although an uncertainty of about +/-5 per cent mu...
متن کاملPressure Dependence of the Nematic State Tempera- ture of a Compensated Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Optical Rotatory Power Measurements with a Choles- teryl chloride and Cholesteryl nonanoate Mixture
At a certain temperature Tn (nematic temperature) a mixture of two cholesteric components which separately form helices of opposite senses behaves like a nematic. An inversion of the helical structure occurs when passing Tn, from a right-handed to a left-handed structure or vice versa. In the temperature-pressure space such compensated mixtures therefore will exhibit an inversion line which — o...
متن کاملThe Far Ultraviolet Optical Rotatory Dispersion, Circular Dichroism, and Absorption Spectra of a Myeloma
The optical rotatory properties of a myeloma globulin, immunoglobulin G (IgG), and a normal individual IgG in the far ultraviolet were investigated by rotatory dispersion, circular dichroism, and absorption spectroscopy. The optical rotatory dispersion of the myeloma immunoglobulin displayed two peaks, one at 205 ml* and the other at 210 rnp, and a trough at 228 mp, a lesser one at 230 mp, and ...
متن کاملReversible disruption by cupric ions of myoglobin and its carboxamidomethyl derivative.
Carboxamidomethyl derivatives of sperm whale metmyoglobin were prepared by reaction at pH 6.8 with iodoacetamide. The modified protein is similar to previously studied carboxymethyl preparations and shows many of the properties of the native, unmodified protein. Preparations were obtained with compositions in the following ranges, expressed as moles of histidine derivative per mole of protein: ...

متن کاملChanges in Side Chain Reactivity Accompanying the Binding of Heme to Sperm Whale Apomyoglobin.
Considerable attention has been devoted recently to the study of conformational changes occurring during enzyme-substrate interaction (1, 2). Presumably the nature of the interaction between apoproteins and their prosthetic groups is essentially similar to that between enzymes and substrates, with the exception that no catalytic step occurs subsequent to the initial binding. Studies of the phys...
