Interaction of the myelin basic protein with the anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulphate.

ABSTRACT: The interaction of the myelin basic protein and two peptides derived from it with the anionic detergent SDS (sodium dodecyl sulphate) was studied. At molar ratios of detergent/protein of up to approx. 20:1 the transient increase in turbidity (as measured by increases in A230) is proportional to the ratio. Between ratios of 30:1 and 100:1 the effect of the detergent is constant and maximal. At molar ratios exceeding 100:1 the transient increase in turbidity decreases with increasing amounts of detergent. With increasing ionic strength the rapid development of turbidity is inhibited, whereas the slow decay of turbidity is not affected. Neither of the peptide fragments produced by cleavage of the myelin basic protein at the single tryptophan residue, nor both when mixed, produce measurable turbidity when mixed with SDS. Under similar conditions poly-L-lysine of similar molecular size to the basic protein shows the increase in turbidity but not the decay. The interaction between the protein and SDS is interpreted in molecular terms, which involve the initial ionic interaction of the detergent with protein resulting in aggregation and turbidity in the solution. Within the aggregated complexes molecules rearrange to maximize hydrophobic interactions.

Metabolism Dependent Chemotaxis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa N1 Towards Anionic Detergent Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate.

Project description:Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is one of the most commonly used detergent, which exhibits excellent biocidal activity against various bacteria and fungi. It is commonly employed in many detergent formulations and is employed for disinfection purposes. It is shown to be toxic to fishes, aquatic animals and is also inhibitory to microbes and cyanobacteria. We had isolated a strain belonging to Pseudomonas aeruginosa N1, from a detergent contaminated pond situated in Varanasi city India, which was able to degrade and metabolize SDS as a source of carbon. In the present investigation, we have studied chemotactic response of this strain towards SDS. The results clearly indicate that this strain showed chemotactic response towards SDS. The nature of chemotaxis was found to be metabolism dependent as glucose grown cells showed a delayed chemotactic response towards SDS. This is first study that reported chemotaxis response for P. aeruginosa towards anionic detergent SDS.

Solubilization of isolated central-nervous-system myelin preparations by the amniotic detergent sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:The mechanism for the solubilization of isolated central-nervous-system myelin by sodium dodecyl sulphate was studied in detail. The release of protein and phospholipid to the 100000 g x 1 h supernatant fraction is dependent on the total amount of detergent relative to the amount of membrane present and on the ionic strength of the solubilization system. Gel-filtration analysis of supernatant fractions indicate that at suboptimal concentrations of detergent these contain lipid-protein complexes. The complete dissociation of the individual protein components from lipid is dependent on the total amount of sodium dodecyl sulphate present in the system. The results indicate that for the analysis of membrane components in sodium dodecyl sulphate it is essential that sufficient detergent is present.

Isolation of a strain of Pseudomonas putida capable of metabolizing anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS).

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) is one of the most widely used anionic detergents. The present study deals with isolation and identification of SDS-degrading bacteria from a detergent contaminated pond situated in Varanasi city, India. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Employing enrichment technique in minimal medium (PBM), SDS-degrading bacteria were isolated from pond water sample. Rate of degradation of SDS was studied in liquid PBM and also degradation of different concentrations of SDS was also studied to find out maximum concentration of SDS degraded by the potent isolates. Alkyl sulfatase activity (key enzyme in SDS degradation) was estimated in crude cell extracts and multiplicity of alkyl sulfatase was studied by Native PAGE Zymography. The potent isolate was identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis. RESULTS:Using enrichment technique in minimal medium containing SDS as a sole carbon source, initially three SDS degrading isolates were recovered. However, only one isolate, SP3, was found to be an efficient degrader of SDS. It was observed that this strain could completely metabolize 0.1% SDS in 16 h, 0.2% SDS in 20 h and 0.3% SDS in 24 h of incubation. Specific activity of alkyl sulfatase was 0.087±0.004 µmol SDS/mg protein/min and Native PAGE Zymography showed presence of alkyl sulfatase of Rf value of 0.21. This isolate was identified as Pseudomonas putida strain SP3. CONCLUSION:This is the report of isolation of SDS-degrading strain of P. putida, which shows high rate of SDS degradation and can degrade up to 0.3% SDS. It appears that this isolate can be exploited for bioremediation of this detergent from water systems.

Mobility of sodium dodecyl sulphate - protein complexes.

Project description:Reduced and unreduced lysozyme aggregates formed by formaldehyde cross-linking comprise a set of model compounds for studying the effects of protein conformation on the electrophoretic mobilities of sodium dodecyl sulphate-protein complexes. The reduced aggregates were indistinguisable from normal proteins, but the unreduced aggregates migrated anomalously fast by about 14%. Contrary to expectations, plots of logarithm Rf versus Kr (retardation coefficient) failed to reveal an unusual conformation for the unreduced aggregates. Thus the anomalous mobility caused by several intramolecular disulphide bonds escaped detection by the above two diagnostic plots. Also included in this paper is a discussion of the implications of these results with regard to current models for sodium dodecyl sulphate-protein complexes.

The interaction between Beta-lactoglobulin and sodium N-dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:1. The binding of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate to beta-lactoglobulin was studied in the pH range 3.5-7.0 by equilibrium dialysis, ultracentrifugation and microcalorimetry. 2. At low binding concentrations (less than 30 bound surfactants anions per protein molecule) the complexes formed aggregates in solution. 3. At higher binding concentrations aggregation does not occur at low ionic strength (0.01 mol/litre), but continues at high ionic strength (0.1 mol/litre). 4. At 25 degrees C the enthalpy of interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate with beta-lactoglobulin can be interpreted as the sum of the enthalpies of formation of a complex with 2 bound surfactant anions, with an enthalpy change of -9.5 kJ-mol-1 of bound surfactant, and complexes containing at least 22 bound surfactant anions, with limiting enthalpies per bound surfactant anion of -12.4 kJ-mol-1 at pH 3.5 and -3.25 kJ-mol-1 at pH 5.5. 5. The binding of surfactant and the enthalpy of interaction at pH 3.5 ARE NOT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY THE ADDITION Of 8 M-urea. 6. The data indicate that at low binding concentrations the interaction is of an ionic nature, and is accompanied by a conformational change in the protein.

Comprehensive Atlas of the Myelin Basic Protein Interaction Landscape.

Project description:Intrinsically disordered myelin basic protein (MBP) is one of the key autoantigens in autoimmune neurodegeneration and multiple sclerosis particularly. MBP is highly positively charged and lacks distinct structure in solution and therefore its intracellular partners are still mostly enigmatic. Here we used combination of formaldehyde-induced cross-linking followed by immunoprecipitation and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to elucidate the interaction network of MBP in mammalian cells and provide the list of potential MBP interacting proteins. Our data suggest that the largest group of MBP-interacting proteins belongs to cellular proteins involved in the protein translation machinery, as well as in the spatial and temporal regulation of translation. MBP interacts with core ribosomal proteins, RNA helicase Ddx28 and RNA-binding proteins STAU1, TDP-43, ADAR-1 and hnRNP A0, which are involved in various stages of RNA biogenesis and processing, including specific maintaining MBP-coding mRNA. Among MBP partners we identified CTNND1, which has previously been shown to be necessary for myelinating Schwann cells for cell-cell interactions and the formation of a normal myelin sheath. MBP binds proteins MAGEB2/D2 associated with neurotrophin receptor p75NTR, involved in pathways that promote neuronal survival and neuronal death. Finally, we observed that MBP interacts with RNF40-a component of heterotetrameric Rnf40/Rnf20 E3 ligase complex, recruited by Egr2, which is the central transcriptional regulator of peripheral myelination. Concluding, our data suggest that MBP may be more actively involved in myelination not only as a main building block but also as a self-regulating element.

Development and characterisation of a low-concentration sodium dodecyl sulphate decellularised porcine dermis.

Project description:The aim of this study was to adapt a proprietary decellularisation process for human dermis for use with porcine skin. Porcine skin was subject to: sodium chloride (1?M) to detach the epidermis, trypsin paste to remove hair follicles, peracetic acid (0.1% v/v) disinfection, washed in hypotonic buffer and 0.1% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate in the presence of proteinase inhibitors followed by nuclease treatment. Cellular porcine skin, decellularised porcine and human dermis were compared using histology, immunohistochemistry, GSL-1 lectin (alpha-gal epitope) staining, biochemical assays, uniaxial tensile and in vitro cytotoxicity tests. There was no microscopic evidence of cells in decellularised porcine dermis. DNA content was reduced by 98.2% compared to cellular porcine skin. There were no significant differences in the biomechanical parameters studied or evidence of cytotoxicity. The decellularised porcine dermis retained residual alpha-gal epitope. Basement membrane collagen IV immunostaining was lost following decellularisation; however, laminin staining was retained.

Lipid and basic protein interaction of myelin.

Project description:1. Purified myelin labelled with [(3)H]myo-inositol or [1-(14)C]acetate was incubated with trypsin or acetylated trypsin at 37 degrees C, pH8.0 for 30min. 2. After incubation and centrifugation analysis of the myelin pellet showed marked digestion of basic protein on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Proteolipid and Wolfgram proteins remained unchanged. 3. A loss of 15% of total protein and loss of all classes of lipids was also found. Most significant lipid losses were phosphoinositides, phosphatidylserine and sulphatide. 4. A low-density material containing more phospholipid than cholesterol and galactolipid was isolated from the supernatant obtained after centrifugation of trypsin-treated myelin. 5. Interaction of sulphatide and myelin basic protein was shown to take place in a biphasic system. Basic protein does not form any complex either with cerebroside or cholesterol in the same solvent system. 6. The release of acidic lipids from myelin suggests that they may be linked to basic protein by ionic forces and the neutral lipids may be by lipid-lipid interactions. 7. The relevance of these studies as a model of brain degeneration is discussed.

Cytochrome P450 102A2 Catalyzes Efficient Oxidation of Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate: A Molecular Tool for Remediation.

Project description:Bacterial cytochrome P450s (CYPs) constitute an important family of monooxygenase enzymes that carry out essential roles in the metabolism of endogenous compounds and foreign chemicals. In the present work we report the characterization of CYP102A2 from B. subtilis with a focus on its substrate specificity. CYP102A2 is more active in oxidation of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) than any other characterized CYP. The effect of SDS and NADPH concentration on reaction rate showed nonhyperbolic and hyperbolic dependence, respectively. The enzyme was found to exhibit a bell-shaped curve for plots of activity versus pH, over pH values 5.9-8.5. The rate of SDS oxidation reached the maximum value approximately at pH 7.2 and the pH transition observed controlled by two pK(a)s in the acidic (pK(a) = 6.7 ± 0.08) and basic (pK(a) = 7.3 ± 0.06) pH range. The results are discussed in relation to the future biotechnology applications of CYPs.

Proteomic analysis of the human skin proteome after in vivo treatment with sodium dodecyl sulphate.

Project description:BackgroundSkin has a variety of functions that are incompletely understood at the molecular level. As the most accessible tissue in the body it often reveals the first signs of inflammation or infection and also represents a potentially valuable source of biomarkers for several diseases. In this study we surveyed the skin proteome qualitatively using gel electrophoresis, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GeLC-MS/MS) and quantitatively using an isobaric tagging strategy (iTRAQ) to characterise the response of human skin following exposure to sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS).ResultsA total of 653 skin proteins were assigned, 159 of which were identified using GeLC-MS/MS and 616 using iTRAQ, representing the most comprehensive proteomic study in human skin tissue. Statistical analysis of the available iTRAQ data did not reveal any significant differences in the measured skin proteome after 4 hours exposure to the model irritant SDS.ConclusionsThis study represents the first step in defining the critical response to an irritant at the level of the proteome and provides a valuable resource for further studies at the later stages of irritant exposure.
