Abstrakt: The change in temperature is one of the factors affecting the activity of enzymes. In this work thermal denaturation and aggregation of cytochrome P450 BM3 were studied by atomic force microscopy. To determine specific temperature transitions the fluorescence analysis was used. In the low melting temperature range, 10-33 degrees C, a decrease in the fluorescence intensity of aromatic residues was observed with an increase in the fluorescence intensity of flavin groups. Protein melting in this range indicated three narrow S-shaped cooperative transitions at temperatures 16, 22 and 29 degrees C. Atomic force microscopy analysis in this temperature range showed that the shape of BM3 molecules remained globular in the form of compact objects (heights h < 7 nm, lateral dimensions d < 50 nm), but protein oligomeric state changed. The first two transitions were accompanied by a decrease in the degree of oligomerization and the third one was accompanied by its increase.
