Submaxillary mucins. Intermolecular interactions and gel-forming potential of concentrated solutions.
The intermolecular interactions in concentrated solutions of pig submaxillary mucin (PSM) and sheep submaxillary mucin (SSM) were studied by mechanical spectroscopy. PSM and SSM were purified from detectable protein and nucleic acid by equilibrium centrifugation in a CsCl density gradient. PSM and SSM isolated in the presence of proteinase inhibitors showed distinct differences from preparation...
متن کاملEntropic Colloidal Interactions in Concentrated DNA Solutions
We explore the entropic interactions between a pair of micron-sized colloidal spheres in DNA solutions. By confining the particles in a line-scanned optical tweezer, we directly measured the functional form of the interaction potential with sub-kBT resolution in samples where the spheres and the polymer coils were of comparable size. The potential is well described by the Asakura-Oosawa depleti...
متن کاملProtein–Protein Interactions in Dilute to Concentrated Solutions: α-Chymotrypsinogen in Acidic Conditions
Protein-protein interactions were investigated for α-chymotrypsinogen by static and dynamic light scattering (SLS and DLS, respectively), as well as small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), as a function of protein and salt concentration at acidic conditions. Net protein-protein interactions were probed via the Kirkwood-Buff integral G22 and the static structure factor S(q) from SLS and SANS data...
متن کاملEquilibrium clusters in concentrated lysozyme protein solutions.
We have studied the structure of salt-free lysozyme at 293 K and pH 7.8 using molecular simulations and experimental SAXS effective potentials between proteins at three volume fractions, ϕ=0.012, 0.033, and 0.12. We found that the structure of lysozyme near physiological conditions strongly depends on the volume fraction of proteins. The studied lysozyme solutions are dominated by monomers only...
متن کاملTracer diffusion of globular proteins in concentrated protein solutions.
The diffusion of tracer proteins at low concentration was measured in solutions containing "background" proteins at concentrations of up to 200 g/liter. The fractional reduction of the diffusion coefficient of tracer in the presence of a given weight/volume concentration of background species generally increases with increasing size of tracer species and with decreasing size of background speci...
