The interaction of calmodulin with the carbocyanine dye (Stains-all).
نویسندگان
چکیده
The dye "Stains-all" combines with calmodulin to yield a series of complex species whose absorption and circular dichroism spectra are sensitive to the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+. At high dye:calmodulin ratios, the dominant complex formed is characterized by a strong absorption band at 600-650 nm, which is associated with a biphasic circular dichroism band. These spectral features are abolished in the presence of Ca2+.

Binding site conformation dictates the color of the dye stains-all. A study of the binding of this dye to the eye lens proteins crystallins.
The interaction of the cationic carbocyanine dye Stains-all (1-ethyl-2-[3-(1-ethyl-naphthol[1,2-d]thiazolin-2-ylidene)-2- methylpropenyl]naphthol[1,2-d]thiazolium bromide) with the eye lens proteins crystallins has been studied. alpha- and gamma-crystallins do not bind the dye, while beta- and delta-crystallins do, consistent with the fact that the latter two proteins bind the calcium ion. beta...
متن کاملPulsed dye laser (PDL) in the treatment of portwine stains: a narrative review
Portwine stains (PWS) lesions are one of the most common childhood vascular malformations that gradually increase in color and thickness without treatment and have profound devastating psychological effects on the child. For this reason, and also because the lesions become resistant to treatment over time, early treatment of these lesions is very important. pulsed dye laser (PDL) is currently t...
متن کاملPhosphatase and Carbocyanine Dye Binding Define of Phosphate Groups in Mammalian Neurofilaments Different Types
The phosphorylation state of human and bovine spinal cord neurofllaments (NF) was studied by direct phosphate analysis and carbocyanine dye (“Stains-all”) binding to NF polypeptides resolved on SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Electrophoretically purified NF-H (200 kDa), NF-M (160 kDa), and NF-L (66 kDa) of human origin contained 24, 18, and 4 mol phosphatelmol protein, whereas bovine NF contained 53,2...
متن کاملAnalysis of the conformation and ligand-binding properties of the activation segment of pig procarboxypeptidase A.
The isolated activation segment of pig procarboxypeptidase A binds two Tb3+ ions in a strong and specific way. In contrast, the binding of Ca2+, Cd2+ and Mg2+ is weak. The binding of Tb3+ increases the resistance of the isolated activation segment against proteolysis and competes for the binding of the carbocyanine dye Stains-All. This dye forms complexes with the activation segment showing spe...
