Denaturation Of Proteins

We studied the pressureinduced unfolding and refolding of monomeric proteins, such as SNase, αchymotrypsin and ubiquitin, by using synchrotron Xray smallangle scattering and Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy, which monitor changes in the tertiary and secondary structural properties of the proteins upon pressurization. Furthermore, by using the pressurejump relaxation technique in combination with timeresolved Xray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy, the kinetics of the unfolding/refolding of the proteins, was investigated. Significant differences in secondary structure and chain compactness in the folding/unfolding reactions of these proteins are observed. The results are compared with data obtained from other methods of denaturation, such as heat and pressure-assisted cold denaturation. The cold- and pressure-induced unfolding both yield a particularly unfolded state characterized by a persistent amount of secondary structure.

Denaturation Of Proteins

AbstractStudies of biopolymer conformations essentially rely on theoretical models that are routinely used to process and analyze experimental data. While modern experiments allow study of single molecules in vivo, corresponding theories date back to the early 1950s and require an essential update to include the recent significant progress in the description of water. The Hamiltonian formulation of the Zimm-Bragg model we propose includes a simplified, yet explicit model of water-polypeptide interactions that transforms into the equivalent implicit description after performing the summation of solvent degrees of freedom in the partition function. Here we show that our model fits very well to the circular dichroism experimental data for both heat and cold denaturation and provides the energies of inter- and intra-molecular H-bonds, unavailable with other processing methods. The revealed delicate balance between these energies determines the conditions for the existence of cold denaturation and thus clarifies its absence in some proteins.
