Kinetic Analysis of Guanidine Hydrochloride Inactivation of β-Galactosidase in the Presence of Galactose
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inactivation of purified β-Galactosidase was done with GdnHCl in the absence and presence of varying [galactose] at 50°C and at pH 4.5. Lineweaver-Burk plots of initial velocity data, in the presence and absence of guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl) and galactose, were used to determine the relevant K(m) and V(max) values, with p-nitrophenyl β-D-galactopyranoside (pNPG) as substrate, S. Plots of ln([P](∞) - [P](t)) against time in the presence of GdnHCl yielded the inactivation rate constant, A. Plots of A versus [S] at different galactose concentrations were straight lines that became increasingly less steep as the [galactose] increased, showing that A was dependent on [S]. Slopes and intercepts of the 1/[P](∞) versus 1/[S] yielded k(+0) and k'(+0), the microscopic rate constants for the free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex, respectively. Plots of k(+0) and k'(+0) versus [galactose] showed that galactose protected the free enzyme as well as the enzyme-substrate complex (only at the lowest and highest [galactose]) against GdnHCl inactivation. In the absence of galactose, GdnHCl exhibited some degree of non-competitive inhibition. In the presence of GdnHCl, galactose exhibited competitive inhibition at the lower [galactose] of 5 mM which changed to non-competitive as the [galactose] increased. The implications of our findings are further discussed.

In this study, immobilization of partially purified almond (Amygdalus communis) β-galactosidase on Con A layered calcium alginate-cellulose beads was investigated. Immobilized β-galactosidase retained 72% of theinitial activity after crosslinking by glutaraldehyde. Both soluble and immobilized enzyme exhibited the samepH and temperature optima at pH 5.5 and 50ºC, respectively. Howev...
متن کاملSearch for independent (β/α)4 subdomains in a (β/α)8 barrel β-glucosidase
Proteins that fold as (β/α)8 barrels are thought to have evolved from half-barrels that underwent duplication and fusion events. The evidence is particularly clear for small barrels, which have almost identical halves. Additionally, computational calculations of the thermodynamic stability of these structures in the presence of denaturants have revealed that (β/α)8 barrels contain two subunits ...

Guanidine hydrochloride has been widely used in the initial recovery steps of active protein from the inclusion bodies in aqueous two-phase system (ATPS). The knowledge of the guanidine hydrochloride effects on the liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) phase diagram behavior is still inadequate and no comprehensive theory exists for the prediction of the experimental trends. Therefore the effect the ...
