Abstract
The oligomeric state and formation of supramolecular structures of glycogen phosphorylase b from rabbit skeletal muscles have been studied in the system of hydrated reversed micelles of sodium bis-2-ethylhexyl sulfosuccinate (aerosol OT, AOT) in octane. Sedimentation analysis shows that the oligomeric state of the enzyme is controlled by the degree of hydration of the micelles ([H2O]/ [AOT] = w 0). The monomeric (in the range of w 0 from 10 to 16), dimeric (10 < w 0 < 30), trimeric (30 < w 0 < 38), tetrameric (23 < w 0 < 42), hexameric (41 < w 0 < 50), or octameric forms (48 < w 0 < 53) of the enzyme were observed depending on the degree of hydration. Sedimentation behaviour of uridine phosphorylase from Esc-herichia coli K-12 in the micellar system was studied in the range of w 0 from 8.4 to 23.9. The monomeric (at w 0 = 8.4), dimeric (at w 0 = 12.9), trimeric (at w 0 = 16.1), tetrameric (at w 0 = 18.6) and hexameric (at w 0 = 23.9) enzyme forms were registered. The results obtained show that the hydrated reversed micelles are a powerful tool for the study of not only dissociated forms of oligomeric enzymes but also supra-molecular structures. These latter structures mimic the ordered supramolecular complexes of the enzymes whose formation is favoured by the crowded molecular conditions encountered in vivo.
