"Thermal stability of human alfa(1)-acid glycoprotein and its desialyzed form were studied in the pH range 1.5-5.2, i.e. about its pI. Circular dichroism, fluorescence, and UV-absorption were used to determine the conformational changes and their reversibility in the temperature range 25-80 C. These changes were tested in a three step process - heating, cooling, and a second heating. Principal component analysis was applied for analyzing the spectral sets obtained in these experiments. Fully reversible behavior of Trp residues, as characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy, was observed during the heating process at all pH values. Nevertheless, three different types of the protein motion (reversible, irreversible, and rearrangement of the protein core) were determined by UV-absorption spectroscopy. Thus, an environment of Tyr and Phe is modified or reversibly rearranged during the heating process in acid media. These types of alfa(1)-acid glycoprotein behavior were not significantly affected by desialy" . "[739BB873EE0B]" . "RIV/67985823:_____/03:20030003!RIV/2004/AV0/A20004/N" . . "103" .
