Purification (Comment) Organism
by Cibacron blue-Sepharose and AMP-agarose chromatography Escherichia coli

Renatured (Commentary)

Renatured (Comment) Organism
for refolding experiments, the enzyme is first exposed to 3 M GdnHCl for 5 h at 20°C, under this condition Pfk-2 is completely unfolded, the refolding curve is obtained diluting the unfolded enzyme to several guanidine hydrochloride concentrations in the 50 mM Tris, pH 7.8, 5 mM MgCl2 and 10 mM dithiotreitol, under these conditions equilibrium is achieved after 5 h of incubation Escherichia coli

additional information
-
activity recovery after refolding is 90% in the full range of GdnHCl concentrations of 0.1-5.5 M guanidine hydrochloride Escherichia coli

Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
homodimer determined by circular dichroismand gel filtration, subunits consist of a large domain and an additional beta-sheet that provides the interfacial contacts between the subunits, creating a beta-barrel flattened-like structure with the adjacent subunit’s beta-sheet, Pfk-2 undergoes a cooperative unfolding/dissociation process with the accumulation of an expanded and unstructured monomeric intermediate with a marginal stability and a large solvent accessibility with respect to the native dimer Escherichia coli
