AbstractTwo major models, namely direct and indirect models, have been proposed for the protein chemical denaturation but it remains challenging to experimentally demonstrate and distinguish between them. Here, by use of CD and NMR spectroscopy, we succeeded in differentiating the effects on a small but well-folded protein WW4, of GdmCl and NaSCN at diluted concentrations (≥200 mM). Both denaturants up to 200 mM have no alternation of its average structure but do reduce its thermodynamic stability to different degrees. Despite acting as the stronger denaturant, GdmCl only weakly interacts with amide protons, while NaSCN shows extensive interactions with both hydrophobic side chains and amide protons. Although both denaturants show no significant perturbation on overall ps-ns backbone dynamics of WW4, GdmCl suppresses while NaSCN enhances its μs-ms backbone dynamics in a denaturant concentration dependent manner. Quantitative analysis reveals that although they dramatically raise exchange rates, GdmCl slightly increases while NaSCN reduces the population of the major conformational state. Our study represents the first report deciphering that GdmCl and NaSCN appear to destabilize a protein following two models respectively, which are characteristic of opposite μs-ms dynamics.

Mono-, di- and trinitroxylradicals are investigated in solution by ESR spectroscopy. The ESR spectra of all multispin systems studied can be interpreted under the assumption of an exchange interaction of the radical electrons. The exchange energies J are evaluated by comparison of experimental and theoretical line positions. The temperature dependence of J leads to activation energies around 1.5 Kcal/Mol. The analysis of proton hfs of the biradicals indicates the existence of two radical species which slow and fast exchange rates.

Abstract 129Xe NMR spectroscopy is employed to demonstrate that polyepichlorohydrin and poly(vinylmethylether), which have virtually equal glass transition temperatures, form thermodynamically miscible blends. This conclusion is drawn from the appearance of a single resonance in the blend spectrum, at a chemical shift differing from that calculated for the fast exchange regime. 13C NMR results are consistent with thermodynamic miscibility, and reflect the similarity of the component dynamics.
