Abstract

We studied the effect of PEGylation on protein hydrodynamic behavior using hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) as a model protein. HEWL was PEGylated with a linear, 20 kDa PEG using reductive amination to produce PEG1-, PEG2-, and PEG3-HEWL. Near- and far-UV-CD spectroscopy revealed no significant effect of PEGylation on HEWL higher order structure. SDS-PAGE, mass spectrometry, online static light scattering (SLS) and sedimentation velocity analytical ultracentrifugation (SV-AUC) were employed to characterize the heterogeneity and molecular weights of the purified PEG-HEWL molecules, the results of which underscored the importance of using first-principle based methods for such analyses along with the underlying complexities of characterizing PEG-protein conjugates. Hydrodynamic characterization of various linear and branched PEGs (5-40 kDa) and PEG-HEWL molecules was performed using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and SV-AUC. The PEG polymer exhibited a random-coil conformation in solution with the M(w) ∝ R(h)(n) scaling relationship yielding a scaling exponent (n) = 2.07. Singly branched PEGs were also observed to exhibit random-coil behavior with Stokes radii identical to those of their linear counterparts. SV-AUC studies of PEG-HE...Continue Reading

Bacterial Cell Wall Structure (ASM)

Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan (also called murein), which is made from polysaccharide chains cross-linked by unusual peptides containing D-amino acids. Here is the latest research on bacterial cell wall structures.

Cajal Bodies & Gems

Cajal bodies or coiled bodies are dense foci of coilin protein. Gemini of Cajal bodies, or gems, are microscopically similar to Cajal bodies. It is believed that Cajal bodies play important roles in RNA processing while gems assist the Cajal bodies. Find the latest research on Cajal bodies and gems here.
