Bovine serum albumin rate

The effect of flow rate on resolution by Toyopearl HW-55F and Toyopearl HW-55S columns has been studied using a bovine serum albumin sample. Eor both columns, resolution decreased with increasing flow rate (46). Resolution is increased, however, with decreasing particle size (47). Resolution is proportional to the square root of the column length, as theoretically expected, and indicates that longer columns can be packed as well as shorter columns. Therefore, for samples difficult to resolve, the solution may be to increase the column length. 

FIGURE 7.10 Dependence of the resolution on the sample volume. A preparative Superformance column 1000-200 (bed volume 20 liters) packed with Fractogel END BioSEC (S) (bed height 63 cm) was loaded with 60 ml (top) and 300 ml of a mixture of bovine serum albumin (5 mg/ml), ovalbumin (5 mg/ml), and cytochrome c (3 mg/ml) (bottom) (20 m/VI sodium phosphate buffer, 0.3 M NaCI, pH 7.2 flow rate 100 ml/min corresponding to 19 cm/hr). When the sample volume is 300 ml the separation efficiency for BSA and ovalbumin is similar. Thus the column can be loaded with larger sample volumes, resulting in reasonable separations. 

Determination of molecular mass of pectic enzymes The molecular mass were determined by gel filtration in a Sepharose CL-6B column (1,8 x 88cm) equilibrated and eluted with Tris-HCl 50 mM, pH 7,5 buffer, plus 100 mM KCl. Fractions (3,3 ml) were collected at a flow rate of 10 ml/h. Molecular mass markers were tyroglobulin (660 kDa) apoferritin (440 kDa) P-amylase (200 kDa) alcohol dehydrogenase (150 kDa) bovine serum albumin (66 kDa) and carbonic anhydrase (29 kDa). Urea-SDS-PAGE (7%) was carried out according to Swank and Munkres [12]. Molecular mass markers were myosin (205 kDa) p-galactosidase (116 kDa) phosphorylase b (97 kDa) bovine serum albumin (66 kDa), ovalbumin (45 kDa) and carbonic anhydrase (29 kDa).

Proteins may be covalently attached to the latex particle by a reaction of the chloromethyl group with a-amino groups of lysine residues. We studied this process (17) using bovine serum albumin as a model protein - the reaction is of considerable interest because latex-bound antigens or antibodies may be used for highly sensitive immunoassays. The temperature dependence of the rate of protein attachment to the latex particle was unusually small - this rate increased only by 27% when the temperature was raised from 25°C to 35°C. This suggests that non-covalent protein adsorption on the polymer is rate determining. On the other hand. the rate of chloride release increases in this temperature interval by a factor of 17 and while the protein is bound to the latex particle by only 2 bonds at 25°C, 22 bonds are formed at 35°C.

Other 4-nitrophenyl esters have also been reported to be substrates of various hydrolases. For example, 4-nitrophenyl hexanoate (7.19) was hydrolyzed by bovine serum albumin [39], The affinity of the substrate for the macromolecule was found to be high (Km/n = 0.040 mM, where n is the number of sites), but the reaction itself was slow ( = 5 10-3 s-1, where k2 is the first-order rate constant of the formation of the phenol product from the enzyme-substrate complex). Another ester, 4-nitrophenyl pivalate (7.20), was hydrolyzed by cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase at a maximum velocity ca. 1/3 and an affinity ca. 1/20 those of the acetate [40], However, the rate-limiting steps were different for the two substrates, namely acylation of the enzyme for the pivalate, and acyl-enzyme hydrolysis for the acetate (see Chapt. 3).

Estimation of Polymer Sizes by Gel Permeation Chromatography. The copolymer (1 mg) was dissolved in 1 ml of phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, and applied to a column of Sephacryl S-300 (1 X 108 cm) or Sephacryl S-400 (1 x 114 cm). The column was eluted with PBS at a flow rate of 0.2 ml/min. The elution profile of the copolmer was monitored by its absorbance at 214 nm. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was chromatographed for comparative purposes and polyacrylamide standards (Modchrom, Inc.) were used. 

Any detectable effect on the reaction or behavior of a particular system by the interior wall of the container or reaction vessel. Because proteins can form high-affinity complexes with glass and plastic surfaces, one must exercise caution in the choice of reaction kinetic conditions. Wall effects can be discerned if one determines catalytic activity under different conditions that minimize or maximize contact of the solution with the container. In principle, an enzyme-catalyzed reaction should proceed at the same rate if placed in a capillary or a culture tube however, contact with the wall is maximized in a capillary, and wall effects should be more prominent. Some investigators add bovine serum albumin to prevent adsorption of their enzyme onto the container s walls.

Tphe complexing of virtually all purines with aromatic molecules seems - to have far-reaching biological significance. For example, it is known that caffeine affects the rates of many enzymatic reactions (e.g., 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10M caffeine will inhibit salivary amylase 29, 54, and 72% respectively) (12), and purine can decrease the helix-coil transition temperature of the proteins bovine serum albumin and lysozyme (2). It is not unreasonable to expect the involvement of caffeine-aromatic and purine-aromatic complexes because caffeine derivatives and purine complex with the aromatic amino acids tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan (2). (In fact tryptophan forms a stable 1 to 1 crystalline complex in 0.5M theophylline glycol.)...
