Conformational changes in intact and papain-modified alpha sub(1)-proteinase inhibitor induced by guanidinium chloride

Equilibrium unfolding--refolding processes of active and proteolytically modified alpha sub(1)-proteinase inhibitor induced by guanidinium chloride were studied. Spectroscopic methods of ultraviolet absorption, fluorescence emission and circular dichroism were used. The unfolding irreversibility obs...

Zusammenfassung:Equilibrium unfolding--refolding processes of active and proteolytically modified alpha sub(1)-proteinase inhibitor induced by guanidinium chloride were studied. Spectroscopic methods of ultraviolet absorption, fluorescence emission and circular dichroism were used. The unfolding irreversibility observed was attributed to the C-terminal fragment Ser359-Lys394 associated with the main chain of the cleaved inhibitor.
