Popis: | Interaction of rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase with negatively charged liposomes was investigated as a function of temperature. This interaction affects the temperature-dependent conformational transition in the enzyme and exerts stabilizing effect on the protein structure. It can be seen from the fluorescence quenching experiments that the accessibility of tryptophanyl residues and isoindol probe fluorophores (covalently bound with the protein amino groups) for a dynamic quencher, acrylamide, is altered upon binding. This accessibility represented by effective quenching constant (Keff) strongly depends on temperature for unmodified enzyme and for the enzyme adsorbed on liposomes, it is nearly constant over a wide range of temperatures. |
