The effects of heparin on the thermotropic properties of ferricytochrome c have been studied using high-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry. Saturating concentrations of heparin at low ionic strength induced an important shift of the transition temperature Tm from 84.1 degrees C to 59.8 degrees C. This was accompanied by unusually large cooperativity of thermal denaturation of this complex, indicating strong intermolecular interactions between protein molecules. The destabilization of cytochrome c when mixed with heparin was not observed at high ionic strength, under which conditions complex was not formed.
已使用高灵敏度差示扫描量热法研究了肝素对高铁细胞色素c热致性质的影响。在低离子强度下,饱和浓度的肝素会使转变温度Tm发生显著偏移,从84.1℃降至59.8℃。这伴随着该复合物热变性的异常大的协同性,表明蛋白质分子之间存在强烈的分子间相互作用。在高离子强度下未观察到细胞色素c与肝素混合时的稳定性降低,在这种条件下不会形成复合物。
