N-TERMINALLY TRUNCATED RHODANESE
Overview
The NH2-terminal sequence of rhodanese influences many of its properties, ranging from mitochondrial import to folding. Rhodanese truncated by >9, residues is degraded in Escherichia coli. Mutant enzymes with lesser, truncations are recoverable and active, but they show altered active site, reactivities (Trevino, R. J., Tsalkova, T., Dramer, G., Hardesty, B., Chirgwin, J. M., and Horowitz, P. M. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 27841-27847), suggesting that the NH2-terminal sequence stabilizes the, overall structure. We tested aspects of the conformations of these, shortened species. Intrinsic and probe fluorescence showed that truncation, decreased stability and increased hydrophobic exposure, while near UV CD, suggested altered tertiary structure. Under native conditions, truncated, ... [(full description)]
