Figure Lengend Snippet: Protein folding and molecular tumbling analyses of apoA-IV polymorphisms. A , CD spectra for the average molar ellipticity versus wavelength of apoA-IV WT ( red ), apoA-IV Q360H ( blue ), and apoA-IV T347S ( green ) in PBS at 37 °C. B , displays a comparison of percentage α-helix content (fractional helicity) of apoA-IV polymorphisms. C , shows the thermal stability analysis of apoA-IV proteins. Dotted lines signify T m points of 53.2, 50.8, and 47.6 °C for apoA-IV WT ( red ), apoA-IV Q360H ( blue ), and apoA-IV T347S ( green ), respectively. D , shows protein folding stability analysis of apoA-IV proteins in PBS at 25 °C as a function of guanidine chloride concentration. E , exhibits molecular tumbling examination using fluorescence anisotropy of fluorophore-labeled apoA-IV variants in PBS at 37 °C. Fluorescence anisotropy measures the rotational mobility of labeled C terminus with polarized light. Bar graph demonstrates that apoA-IV Q360H tumbles faster than apoA-IV WT , and apoA-IV T347S tumbles faster than apoA-IV Q360H and apoA-IV WT . Mean normalized fluorescence anisotropy values are subtracted from an unconjugated fluorophore blank sample. Quantified values are listed in Table 1 . ∗ p < 0.05, ∗∗ p < 0.01, N = 20. apoA-IV, apolipoprotein A-IV.
Article Snippet: Recombinant His-tagged human apoA-IV WT , apoA-IV Q360H , and apoA-IV T347S protein isoforms (0.2 μM) were separately immobilized onto hydrated Ni–NTA biosensor probes using an Octet RH16 interferometer (Sartorius) and tilted-bottom microplates.
