Fluorescence parameters

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....

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.
