On the entropy of protein folding.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The failure to appreciate that the hydration of polar groups is a major contribution to the entropy of protein unfolding has led to considerable underestimates for the loss of configurational freedom when a protein chain folds.

FOLDING OF THE INTERACTION OF HISTONE HI WITH SODIUM N-DODECYL SULPHATE
The effects of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) on the structure of histone HI has been studied by a combination of e:quilibrium dialysis, U.V. spectroscopy ; polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, protein titration and viscometery techniques using, 2.5 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.4. The interaction of H, and SDS in contrast tomanyothel-protein-SDS interactions is organized between V 40 to 70. A...
متن کاملProtein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
متن کاملOsmolyte-Induced Folding and Stability of Proteins: Concepts and Characterization
It is well-known that the typical protein’s three-dimensional structure is relatively unstable in harsh conditions. A practical approach to maintain the folded state and thus improve the stability and activity of proteins in unusual circumstances is to directly apply stabilizing substances such as osmolytes to the protein-containing solutions. Osmolytes as natural occurring organic molecules ty...

Background: Male infertility has many causes, including genetic infertility. The NOP2/Sun domain family, member7 (Nsun7) gene, which encodes putative methyltransferase Nsun7, has a role in sperm motility. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of the T26248G polymorphism on Nsun7 protein function and its role in male infertility. Materials and Methods: Semen samples were col...
