This report focus on phase behavior of polyethylene glycol (PEG)4000/ phosphate/ guanidine hydrochloride/ water system at different guanidine hydrochloride concentrations and pH. The binodal of the systems was displaced toward higher concentrations of the components with increasing guanidine hydrochloride concentrations. The partition coefficient of guanidine hydrochloride was near unity and in...

Guanidine hydrochloride has been widely used in the initial recovery steps of active protein from the inclusion bodies in aqueous two-phase system (ATPS). The knowledge of the guanidine hydrochloride effects on the liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) phase diagram behavior is still inadequate and no comprehensive theory exists for the prediction of the experimental trends. Therefore the effect the ...

Prior studies of the viscosity of the subunit proteoglycan obtained by dissociative extraction of bovine nasal septum cartilage suggested that the proteoglycan subunit molecule behaves as a rigid rod in aqueous solution over the range of 0.5 to 4.0 M guanidine hydrochloride. A more direct view of dimension and shape can be obtained from light-scattering and viscosity of bovine nasal cartilage p...

The z-average molecular weight of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase in dilute neutral buffer is 78,200 by sedimentation equilibrium. Guanidine hydrochloride, 1 M, reversibly inhibits enzymatic activity. The inhibition with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is competitive and with ethanol is mixed. When ethylenediaminetetraacetate is added to the enzyme in 1 M guanidine hydrochloride, zinc is re...

The reversible denaturation of protein disulfide isomerase proceeds through intermediates that are stabilized by interaction with guanidine hydrochloride. At pH 7.5, the equilibrium denaturation by urea is completely reversible and the transition can be reasonably well-described by a two-state model involving only native and denatured forms. In comparison, the equilibrium denaturation by guanid...

Rauscher leukemia virus deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase is reversibly inactivated by 6 m guanidine-hydrochloride. Gel filtration in 6 m guanidine-hydrochloride reveals that the viral deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase consists of a single polypeptide chain of approximately 70,000 molecular weight.

In this article, the combination of guanidine hydrochloride with co-catalyst ZnI2 proved to be a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the environmentally benign, solvent-free synthesis of cyclic carbonates under mild reaction conditions. The effects of different co-catalysts as well as reaction parameters including catalyst loadings, CO2 pressure, reaction temperature, and reaction time ...

The unfolding of ribonuclease A by urea, guanidine hydrochloride, lithium perchlorate, lithium chloride, and lithium bromide has been followed by circular dichroic and difference spectral measurements. All three abnormal tyrosyl residues are normalized in urea and guanidine hydrochloride (delta epsilon 287 = -2700), only two are normalized in lithium bromide and lithium perchlorate (delta epsil...

The molecular weight of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase was determined in 6m- and 8m-guanidine hydrochloride by meniscus-depletion sedimentation equilibrium, sedimentation velocity and viscosity. Sedimentation equilibrium revealed heterogeneity with the smallest component having a molecular weight of about 50000. At lower speeds, the apparent weight-average molecular weight is about 80000. ...
