Circular dichroism, and steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy were used to compare the native recombinant human DNA repair protein O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) with AGT bound to ds-DNA. Contrary to fluorescence, analysis of the far-UV CD spectra indicated a conformational change of AGT upon binding to DNA: its alpha-helical content is increased by approximately 12%. Analysis of near-UV CD spectra revealed that DNA was also affected, probably being separated into single strands locally.
利用圆二色性、稳态荧光光谱和时间分辨荧光光谱,将天然重组人DNA修复蛋白O6-烷基鸟嘌呤-DNA烷基转移酶(AGT)与结合双链DNA的AGT进行比较。与荧光结果相反,远紫外圆二色光谱分析表明,AGT与DNA结合后发生了构象变化:其α-螺旋含量增加了约12%。近紫外圆二色光谱分析显示,DNA也受到影响,可能在局部被分离成单链。
