Differential scanning calorimetry

This project investigates the use of free radical initiators in the recycling of post consumer recycled high density polyethylene using reactive extrusion. Both molecular and rheological characterisation of recycled and reprocessed materials was carried out and this was followed by tensile testing of the modified materials to satisfy end use applications such as packaging and drainage piping.

The thermal stabilityofperoxidase fromleavesof theAfrican oil palm treeElaeis guineensis(AOPTP) at pH 3.0 was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), intrinsic fluorescence, CD and enzymatic assays.The spectral parameters asmonitoredby ellipticity changes in the far-UV CD spectrum of the enzyme as well as the increase in tryp-tophan intensity emission upon heating, together with changes in enzymatic activity with temperature were seen to be good complements to the highly sensitive but integral methodofDSC....

The thermal denaturation of streptokinase fromStrepto-coccus equisimilis(SK) together with that of a set of frag-ments encompassing each of its three domains has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Analysis of the effects of pH, sample concentration and heating rates on the DSC thermograms has allowed us to find conditions where thermal unfolding occurs unequivo-callyunder equilibrium.

The thermal unfoldingofmyosinsubfragment 1 (S1) cleaved by trypsin was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. In the absence of nucleotides, trypsin splits the S1 heavy chain into three fragments (25, 50, and 20 kDa). This cleavage has no appreciable influence on the thermal unfolding of S1 examined in the presence of ADP, in the ternary complexes of S1 with ADP and phosphate analogs, such as orthovanadate (Vi) or berylliumfluoride (BeFx), and in the presence of F-actin.

The structure–activity relations of a series of synthetic phenoxazone drugs with aminoalkyl side chains of variable length and different terminal groups were investigated by examining their biological activity and DNA complexation affinity. Biological activitywas determined fromtheir ability to induce apoptosis and cell cycle perturbations (activation of cell cycle checkpoints) using the human malignant MOLT-3 cell line. The thermodynamic parameters of drug– DNA complexation were determined by differential scan-ning calorimetry....

The heat- and pressure-induced unfolding of the glycosyl-ated and unglycosylated forms of mature carboxypeptidase Y and the precursor procarboxypeptidase Y were analysed by differential scanning calorimetry and/or by their intrinsic fluorescence in the temperature range of 20–75
Corthe pressure range of 0.1–700 MPa. Under all conditions, the precursor form showed a clear two-state transition from a folded to an unfolded state, regardless of the presence of the carbohydrate moiety.

Tetracycline repressor (TetR), which constitutes the most commonmechanismof bacterial resistance to an antibiotic, is a homodimeric protein composed of two identical sub-units, each of which contains a domain possessing a helix– turn–helix motif and a domain responsible for binding tetra-cycline. Binding of tetracycline in the protein pocket is accompanied by conformational changes in TetR, which abolish the specific interaction between the protein and DNA.

The N-terminally myristoylated, 19-amino acid peptide, corresponding to the amino terminus of the neuronal protein NAP-22 (NAP-22 peptide) is a naturally occurring peptide that had been shown by fluorescence to cause the sequestering of a Bodipy-labeled PtdIns(4,5)P2 in a cholesterol-depend-ent manner. The present work, using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), extends the observation that formation of a PtdIns(4,5)P2-rich domain is cholesterol dependent and shows that it also leads to the forma-tion of a cholesterol-depleted domain. ...

Thermodynamic parameters describing the conformational stability of the histidine-containing phosphocarrier protein fromStreptomyces coelicolor, scHPr, have been determined by steady-state fluorescence measurements of isothermal urea-denaturations, differential scanning calorimetry at different guanidinium hydrochloride concentrations and, independently, by far-UV circular dichroism measurements of isothermal urea-denaturations, and thermal denatura-tions at fixed urea concentrations.

We used differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and circular dichroism (CD) to investigate thermal unfolding of recombinant fibroblast isoforms ofa-tropomyosin (Tm) in comparison with that of smooth muscle Tm. These two nonmuscle Tm isoforms 5a and 5b differ internally only by exons 6b⁄6a, and they both differ from smooth muscle Tm by the N-terminal exon 1b which replaces the muscle-specific exons 1a and 2a.

Differential scanning calorimetry was used to investigate the thermal unfolding of actin specifically cleaved within the DNaseI-binding loop between residues Met47-Gly48 or Gly42-Val43 by two bacterial proteases, subtilisin or ECP32⁄grimelysin (ECP), respectively. The results obtained show that both cleavages strongly decreased the thermal stability of mono-meric actin with either ATP or ADP as a bound nucleotide.
