The interaction of chaotropic anions with acid ferricytochrome c.
نویسنده
چکیده
The influence of the sodium salts of various anions on the spectral properties of acid ferricytochrome c was investigated. It was found that chaotropic anions convert the high spin form of the enzyme into a mixed spin spectral type. The following order of efficiency was established: TBA> TCA> C104> SCN> NO3> Br> Cl(where TBAand TCArepresent tribromoacetate and trichloroacetate ions, respectively). A correlation was shown between the action of the anions and their partial molar entropies.

Synergistic Influence of Benzoate Ions on Inhibition of Corrosion of Mild Steel in 0.5m Sulfuric Acid by Benzotriazole
The influence of benzoate anions on the corrosion inhibition effect of benzotriazole (BTA) for mild steel in sulfuric acid has been investigated. The investigation was carried out by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The addition of benzoate ions greatly enhances the inhibition efficiency of BTA in a synergistic manner. This effect has bee...
متن کاملOn the Hypericin Interaction with the Artificial Lipid Membrane in the Presence of Lyotropic Anions
The modifications induced by hypericin on the electric properties of the artificial lipid bilayers suggest that it has apparent stabilizing effects on the membrane against strong chaotropic anions. We imply that this is due to the interference of hypericin’s insertion into the bilayers with the mechanisms by which the lyotropic anions alter the electrical surroundings of the bilayer and/or the ...
متن کاملThe effect of amino acid salts on activity and stability of alcohol dehydrogenase
Background: In the high concentration of salts, kosmotropic and chaotropic effects became clear and these effects are related with Viscosity B-coefficient. Methods: In present study, the effects of high concentration of amino acid salts (1-3M) on yeast alcohol dehydrogenase was assessed and the effects of Na.Aspartate, Na.Glutamate. HCl.Glycinate, HCl.Lysinate and HCl.Lysinate on stability and ...
متن کاملA denaturation-induced proton-uptake study of horse ferricytochrome c.
The observation that 6 M-urea denatures horse ferricytochrome c in the pH range 4-6, but not horse ferrocytochrome c, has been exploited to determine the denaturation-induced proton uptake of ferricytochrome c. This is related to the pKa values of ionizable groups buried within the native protein. The data indicate that one of the haem propionic acid substituents of ferricytochrome c has a pKa ...
متن کاملEffect of nucleotides on thermal stability of ferricytochrome C.
The effect of nucleotides on the structure and thermal stability of ferricytochrome c was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The association of cytochrome c with ATP and ADP resulted in a decrease in the denaturation temperature of cytochrome c by 7 degrees C and 4 degrees C, respectively, at pH 7.0. AMP did not change the denaturation temperature of cytochrome c at pH 7.0. The ratio...
