Stabilization of T4 polynucleotide kinase by macromolecular crowding.
T4 polynucleotide kinase rapidly loses activity during its reaction on duplex DNA termini. Addition of high concentrations of nonspecific polymers reverses or prevents this inactivation. In contrast, additions of related materials of lower molecular weight are relatively ineffective in stabilizing the kinase. Such a pattern suggests that the stabilizing effects of polymers on kinase activity ar...
متن کاملMacromolecular crowding as a regulator of gene transcription.
Studies of macromolecular crowding have shown its important effects on molecular transport and interactions in living cells. Less clear is the effect of crowding when its influence is incorporated into a complex network of interactions. Here, we explore the effects of crowding in the cell nucleus on a model of gene transcription as a network of reactions involving transcription factors, RNA pol...
متن کاملExcluded-Volume Effects in Living Cells**
Biomolecules evolve and function in densely crowded and highly heterogeneous cellular environments. Such conditions are often mimicked in the test tube by the addition of artificial macromolecular crowding agents. Still, it is unclear if such cosolutes indeed reflect the physicochemical properties of the cellular environment as the in-cell crowding effect has not yet been quantified. We have de...
متن کاملCell-Free Protein Expression under Macromolecular Crowding Conditions
BACKGROUND Cell-free protein expression (CFPE) comprised of in vitro transcription and translation is currently manipulated in relatively dilute solutions, in which the macromolecular crowding effects present in living cells are largely ignored. This may not only affect the efficiency of protein synthesis in vitro, but also limit our understanding of the functions and interactions of biomolecul...
متن کاملHow can macromolecular crowding inhibit biological reactions? The enhanced formation of DNA nanoparticles
In contrast to the already known effect that macromolecular crowding usually promotes biological reactions, solutions of PEG 6k at high concentrations stop the cleavage of DNA by HindIII enzyme, due to the formation of DNA nanoparticles. We characterized the DNA nanoparticles and probed the prerequisites for their formation using multiple techniques such as fluorescence correlation spectroscopy...
