Abstract
The importance of studying the structural stability of proteins is determined by the structure-function relationship. Protein stability is influenced by many factors among which are freeze-thaw and thermal stresses. The effect of trehalose, betaine, sorbitol and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) on the stability and aggregation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) upon heating at 50 °C or freeze-thawing was studied by dynamic light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, analytical ultracentrifugation and circular dichroism spectroscopy. A freeze-thaw cycle resulted in the complete loss of the secondary and tertiary structure, and aggregation of GDH. All the cosolutes suppressed freeze-thaw- and heat-induced aggregation of GDH and increased the protein thermal stability. The effective concentrations of the cosolutes during freeze-thawing were lower than during heating. Sorbitol exhibited the highest anti-aggregation activity under freeze-thaw stress, whereas the most effective agents stabilizing the tertiary structure of GDH were HPCD and betaine. HPCD and trehalose were the most effective agents suppressing GDH thermal aggregation. All the chemical chaperones stabilized various soluble oligomeric forms of GDH against both types of stress. The data on GDH were compared with the effects of the same cosolutes on glycogen phosphorylase b during thermal and freeze-thaw-induced aggregation. This research can find further application in biotechnology and pharmaceutics.

Abstract
Effects of E90K, N98S, and A149V mutations in the light chain of neurofilaments (NFL) on the structure and thermal denaturation of the NFL molecule were investigated. By using circular dichroism spectroscopy, it was shown that these mutations did not lead to the changes in α-helical structure of NFL, but they caused noticeable effects on the stability of the molecule. We also identified calorimetric domains in the NFL structure by using differential scanning calorimetry. It was shown that the E90K replacement leads to the disappearance of the low-temperature thermal transition (domain 1). The mutations cause changes in the enthalpy of NFL domains melting, as well as lead to the significant changes in the melting temperatures (Tm) of some calorimetric domains. Thus, despite the fact that all these mutations are associated with the development of Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy, and two of them are even located very close to each other in the coil 1A, they affect differently structure and stability of the NFL molecule.

Abstract
Formation and accumulation of protein aggregates adversely affect intracellular processes in living cells and are negative factors in the production and storage of protein preparations. Chemical chaperones can prevent protein aggregation, but this effect is not universal and depends on the target protein structure and kinetics of its aggregation. We studied the effect of betaine (Bet) and lysine (Lys) on thermal aggregation of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) at 48°C (aggregation order, n = 0.5), UV-irradiated Phb (UV-Phb) at 37°C (n = 1), and apo-form of Phb (apo-Phb) at 37°C (n = 2). Using dynamic light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, and analytical ultracentrifugation, we have shown that Bet protected Phb and apo-Phb from aggregation, but accelerated the aggregation of UV-Phb. At the same time, Lys prevented UV-Phb and apo-Phb aggregation, but increased the rate of Phb aggregation. The mechanisms of chemical chaperone action on the tertiary and quaternary structures and kinetics of thermal aggregation of the target proteins are discussed. Comparison of the effects of chemical chaperones on the proteins with different aggregation kinetics provides more complete information on the mechanism of their action.

Abstract
αB-Crystallin (αB-Cr), one of the main crystalline lens proteins, along with other crystallins maintains lens transparency suppressing protein aggregation and thus preventing cataractogenesis. αB-Cr belongs to the class of molecular chaperones; being expressed in many tissues it has a dynamic quaternary structure, which is essential for its chaperone-like activity. Shift in the equilibrium between ensembles of oligomers of different size allows regulating the chaperone activity. Trehalose is known to inhibit protein aggregation in vivo and in vitro, and it is widely used in biotechnology. The results of studying the effect of trehalose on the chaperone-like activity of crystallins can serve as a basis for the design of drugs delaying cataractogenesis. We have studied the trehalose effect on the quaternary structure and anti-aggregation activity of αB-Cr using muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) as a target protein. According to the dynamic light scattering data, trehalose affects the nucleation stage of Phb thermal aggregation at 48°C, and an increase in the αB-Cr adsorption capacity (AC0) is the main effect of trehalose on the aggregation process in the presence of the protein chaperone (AC0 increases 1.5-fold in the presence of 66 mM trehalose). According to the sedimentation analysis data, trehalose stabilizes the dimeric form of Phb at the stages of denaturation and dissociation and enhances the interaction of αB-Cr with the target protein. Moreover, trehalose shifts the equilibrium between the αB-Cr oligomers towards the smaller forms. Thus, trehalose affects the quaternary structure of αB-Cr and increases its anti-aggregation activity at the nucleation stage.

Abstract
Chemical chaperones are a class of small molecules, which enhance protein stability, folding, inhibit protein aggregation, and are used for long-term storage of therapeutic proteins. The combined action of chemical chaperones trehalose, betaine and lysine on stability, aggregation and oligomeric state of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) has been studied. Dynamic light scattering data indicate that the affinity of trehalose to Phb increased in the presence of betaine or lysine at both stages (stage of nucleation and aggregate growth) of enzyme aggregation at 48 °C, in contrast, the affinity of betaine to the enzyme in the presence of lysine remained practically unchanged. According to differential scanning calorimetry and analytical ultracentrifugation data, the mixture of trehalose and betaine stabilized Phb stronger than either of them in total. Moreover, the destabilizing effect of lysine on the enzyme was almost completely compensated by trehalose and only partially by betaine. The main protective effect of the mixtures of osmolytes and lysine is associated with their influence on the dissociation/denaturation stage, which is the rate-limiting one of Phb aggregation. Thus, a pair of chaperones affects the stability, oligomeric state, and aggregation of Phb differently than individual chaperones.

Abstract
Arginine (Arg) is frequently used in biotechnology and pharmaceutics to stabilize protein preparations. When using charged ions like Arg, it is necessary to take into account their contribution to the increase in ionic strength, in addition to the effect of Arg on particular processes occurring under the conditions of constancy of ionic strength. Here, we examined contribution of ionic strength (0.15 and 0.5 M) to the effects of Arg on denaturation, thermal inactivation and aggregation of skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb). Dynamic light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation, differential scanning calorimetry, circular dichroism and enzymatic activity assay were used to assess the effects of Arg at constant ionic strength compared with the effects of ionic strength alone. We found that high ionic strength did not affect the secondary structure of Phb, but changed conformation of the protein. Such a destabilization of the enzyme causes an increase in the initial rate of aggregation and inactivation of Phb thereby affecting its denaturation. Binding of Arg causes additional changes in the protein conformation, weakening the bonds between monomers in the dimer. This causes the dimer to dissociate into monomers, which rapidly aggregate. Thus, Arg acts on these processes much stronger than just ionic strength.

Abstract
Small heat-shock proteins (sHSPs) are ATP-independent molecular chaperones that interact with partially unfolded proteins, preventing their aberrant aggregation, thereby exhibiting a chaperone-like activity. Dynamics of the quaternary structure plays an important role in the chaperone-like activity of sHSPs. However, relationship between the dynamic structure of sHSPs and their chaperone-like activity remains insufficiently characterized. Many factors (temperature, ions, a target protein, crowding etc.) affect the structure and activity of sHSPs. The least studied is an effect of crowding on sHSPs activity. In this work the chaperone-like activity of HSPB5 was quantitatively characterized by dynamic light scattering using two test systems, namely test systems based on heat-induced aggregation of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) at 48 °C and dithiothreitol-induced aggregation of α-lactalbumin at 37 °C. Analytical ultracentrifugation was used to control the oligomeric state of HSPB5 and target proteins. The possible anti-aggregation functioning of suboligomeric forms of HSPB5 is discussed. The effect of crowding on HSPB5 anti-aggregation activity was characterized using Phb as a target protein. The duration of the nucleation stage was shown to decrease with simultaneous increase in the relative rate of aggregation of Phb in the presence of HSPB5 under crowded conditions. Crowding may subtly modulate sHSPs activity.

Abstract
Many functions of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) are regulated by Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions. Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions stimulate activity of PhK, induce the changes in the tertiary and quaternary structure of the hexadecameric enzyme molecule, provoke association/aggregation of PhK molecules, enhance PhK binding to glycogen. To establish the kinetic regime of Ca2+ and Mg2+-induced aggregation of PhK from rabbit skeletal muscles at 40 °C, in the present work the kinetics of aggregation was studied at various protein concentrations using the dynamic light scattering. The proposed mechanism of aggregation involves the stage of unfolding of the protein molecule with retention of the integrity of its oligomeric structure, the nucleation stage and stages of the growth of protein aggregates. The initial rate of the aggregation process at the stage of aggregate growth depends linearly on the protein concentration. This means that the order of aggregation with respect to the protein is equal to unity and the aggregation rate is limited by the rate of protein unfolding. The rate constant of the first order characterizing the stage of protein unfolding was found to be equal to 0.071 min-1 (40 mM Hepes, pH 6.8, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1 mM Ca2+, 10 mM Mg2+).

Abstract
α-Crystallin maintains the transparency of the lens by preventing the aggregation of damaged proteins. The aim of our work was to study the chaperone-like activity of native α-crystallin in near physiological conditions (temperature, ionic power, pH) using UV-damaged βL-crystallin as the target protein. α-Crystallin in concentration depended manner inhibits the aggregation of UV-damaged βL-crystallin. DSC investigation has shown that refolding of denatured UV-damaged βL-crystallin was not observed under incubation with α-crystallin. α-Crystallin and UV-damaged βL-crystallin form dynamic complexes with masses from 75 to several thousand kDa. The content of UV-damaged βL-crystallin in such complexes increases with the mass of the complex. Complexes containing >10% of UV-damaged βL-crystallin are prone to precipitation whereas those containing <10% of the target protein are relatively stable. Formation of a stable 75 kDa complex is indicative of α-crystallin dissociation. We suppose that α-crystallin dissociation is the result of an interaction of comparable amounts of the chaperone-like protein and the target protein. In the lens simultaneous damage of such amounts of protein, mainly β and gamma-crystallins, is impossible. The authors suggest that in the lens rare molecules of the damaged protein interact with undissociated oligomers of α-crystallin, and thus preventing aggregation.

Abstract
Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are molecular chaperones preventing protein aggregation. Dynamics of quaternary structure plays an important role in the chaperone-like activity of sHsps. However, an interrelation between the oligomeric state and chaperone-like activity of sHsps remains insufficiently characterized. Most of the accumulated data were obtained in dilute protein solutions, leaving the question of the oligomeric state of sHsps in crowded intracellular media largely unanswered. Here, we analyzed the effect of crowding on the oligomeric state of αB-crystallin (αB-Cr) using analytical ultracentrifugation. Marked increase in the sedimentation coefficient of αB-Cr was observed in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) at 48 °C. An especially pronounced effect was detected for the PEG and TMAO mixture, where the sedimentation coefficient (s20,w) of αB-Cr increased from 10.7 S in dilute solution up to 40.7 S in the presence of crowding agents. In the PEG + TMAO mixture, addition of model protein substrate (muscle glycogen phosphorylase b) induced dissociation of large αB-Cr oligomers and formation of complexes with smaller sedimentation coefficients, supporting the idea that, under crowding conditions, protein substrates can promote dissociation of large αB-Cr oligomers.

Abstract
Different test systems are used to characterize the anti-aggregation efficiency of molecular chaperone proteins and of low-molecular-weight chemical chaperones. Test systems based on aggregation of UV-irradiated protein are of special interest because they allow studying the protective action of different agents at physiological temperatures. The kinetics of UV-irradiated glycogen phosphorylase b (UV-Phb) from rabbit skeletal muscle was studied at 37°C using dynamic light scattering in a wide range of protein concentrations. It has been shown that the order of aggregation with respect to the protein is equal to unity. A conclusion has been made that the rate-limiting stage of the overall process of aggregation is heat-induced structural reorganization of a UV-Phb molecule, which contains concealed damage.

Abstract
Protein stability is a fundamental characteristic essential for understanding conformational transformations of the proteins in the cell. When using protein preparations in biotechnology and biomedicine, the problem of protein stability is of great importance. The kinetics of denaturation of oligomeric proteins may have characteristic properties determined by the quaternary structure. The kinetic schemes of denaturation can include the multiple stages of conformational transitions in the protein oligomer and stages of reversible dissociation of the oligomer. In this case, the shape of the kinetic curve of denaturation or the shape of the melting curve registered by differential scanning calorimetry can vary with varying the protein concentration. The experimental data illustrating dissociative mechanism for irreversible thermal denaturation of oligomeric proteins have been summarized in the present review. The use of test systems based on thermal aggregation of oligomeric proteins for screening of agents possessing anti-aggregation activity is discussed.

Abstract
To characterize the role of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate in stabilization of the conformation of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb), the mechanism of thermal aggregation for holo- and apoforms of Phb has been studied using dynamic light scattering. The order of aggregation with respect to the protein (n) for aggregation of holoPhb at 48°C is equal to 0.5 suggesting that the dissociative mechanism of denaturation is operative and denaturation is followed by rapid aggregation stage. In the case of aggregation of apoPhb at 37°C n=2 and the rate-limiting stage is aggregation of unfolded protein molecules.

Abstract
It is becoming evident that small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are important players of protein homeostasis system. Their ability to bind misfolded proteins may play a crucial role in preventing protein aggregation in cells. The remarkable structural plasticity of sHsps is considered to underlie the mechanism of their activity. However, all our knowledge of the anti-aggregation functioning of sHsps is based on data obtained in vitro in media greatly different from the cellular highly crowded milieu. The present review highlights available data on the effect of crowding on the anti-aggregation activity of sHsps. There is some evidence that crowding affects conformation and dynamics of sHsps oligomers as well as their anti-aggregation properties. Crowding stimulates association of sHsp-client protein complexes into large-sized aggregates thus diminishing the apparent anti-aggregation activity of sHsps. Nevertheless, it is also shown that complexes between suboligomers (dissociated forms) of sHsps and client proteins may be stabilized and exist for longer period of time under crowded conditions. Moreover, crowding may retard the initial stages of aggregation which correspond to the formation of sHsp-containing nuclei and their clusters. Thus, dissociation of sHsps into suboligomers appears to be an important feature for the anti-aggregation activity of sHsps in crowded media.

Abstract
Macromolecular crowding can facilitate protein-protein interactions in the cell, in particular aggregation processes. To characterize the anti-aggregation activity of chaperones under conditions mimicking the crowded environment in the cell, two basic test systems are used. Test systems of the first type are based on aggregation of target proteins undergoing unfolding under different factors. Dithithreitol-induced aggregation of α-lactalbumin is used as such a system. The increase in the duration of lag phase after the addition of the crowder (polyethylene glycol; PEG) to the system containing α-crystallin has been interpreted as a retardation of the stages that are the rate-limiting stages of the general process of aggregation (the nucleation stage and the stages of clusterization of nuclei). Test systems of the second type are based on aggregation of UV-irradiated proteins. Such test systems permit investigating the effects of different agents directly on the stages of aggregation of unfolded protein. UV-irradiated glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) is used as a target protein. Analysis of the initial rate of aggregation after the addition of PEG at different points in time to the mixture of UV-irradiated Phb and α-crystallin allowed estimating the time of half-conversion for the structural rearrangement of the primary UV-irradiated Phb-α-crystallin complex.

Abstract
Effect of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), well-known osmolyte, widely used to imitate crowded intracellular conditions, on the quaternary structure of recombinant human small heat shock protein HspB6 (Hsp20) was analyzed by means of size-exclusion chromatography, chemical crosslinking and analytical ultracentrifugation. Consistent with previous reports, in the absence of TMAO unphosphorylated, pseudophosphorylated (S16D mutant) and phosphorylated HspB6 form only small oligomers (presumably dimers). Addition of TMAO to unphosphorylated HspB6 leads to formation of different large oligomers being in equilibrium with dimers. Pseudophosphorylation (S16D mutation) or phosphorylation partially or completely prevent TMAO-induced oligomerization of HspB6. Pseudophosphorylation affects bis-ANS binding suggesting decreased hydrophobicity of HspB6. According to size-exclusion chromatography, TMAO-induced changes of HspB6 oligomerization result in its altered interaction with HspB1 and this effect can be reversed by HspB6 phosphorylation. It is concluded that under conditions of molecular crowding, characteristic for intracellular environment, HspB6 undergoes reversible changes of its oligomeric state which can affect its physiologically important properties and can be delicately regulated by phosphorylation.

Abstract
Members of the 14-3-3 protein family interact with hundreds of different, predominantly phosphorylated, proteins. 14-3-3 dimers are prevalent but exist at the equilibrium with the monomers. Our previous studies using the engineered monomeric 14-3-3ζ (14-3-3ζm) showed that 14-3-3ζ monomer retained binding activity towards selected phosphorylated partners and, in addition, it prevented heat-induced aggregation of myosin subfragment 1. Since the chaperone-like activity of 14-3-3 monomers has been insufficiently studied, here we have analyzed the effect of 14-3-3ζm on the aggregation of different model proteins. We found that 14-3-3ζm demonstrated considerable chaperone-like activity by inhibiting the DTT-induced aggregation of insulin and thermally-induced aggregation of alcohol dehydrogenase and phosphorylase kinase. Importantly, the anti-aggregating activity of 14-3-3ζm was concentration-dependent and overall, was more pronounced than that of its dimeric counterpart. In some cases, the chaperone-like effect of 14-3-3ζm was comparable, or even higher, than that of the small heat shock proteins, HspB6 and HspB5. We suggest that 14-3-3s not only can bind and regulate the activity of multiple phosphoproteins, but also possess moonlighting chaperone-like activity, which is especially pronounced in the case of monomeric forms of 14-3-3 which can be present under certain stress conditions.

Abstract
The methodology for quantification of the anti-aggregation activity of protein and chemical chaperones has been elaborated. The applicability of this methodology was demonstrated using a test-system based on dithiothreitol-induced aggregation of bovine serum albumin at 45°C as an example. Methods for calculating the initial rate of bovine serum albumin aggregation (v agg) have been discussed. The comparison of the dependences of v agg on concentrations of intact and cross-linked α-crystallin allowed us to make a conclusion that a non-linear character of the dependence of v agg on concentration of intact α-crystallin was due to the dynamic mobility of the quaternary structure of α-crystallin and polydispersity of the α-crystallin-target protein complexes. To characterize the anti-aggregation activity of the chemical chaperones (arginine, arginine ethyl ester, arginine amide and proline), the semi-saturation concentration [L]0.5 was used. Among the chemical chaperones studied, arginine ethyl ester and arginine amide reveal the highest anti-aggregation activity ([L]0.5 = 53 and 58 mM, respectively).

Abstract
Molecular mechanisms governing selective binding of a huge number of various phosphorylated protein partners to 14-3-3 remain obscure. Phosphate can bind to 14-3-3 and therefore being present at high intracellular concentration, which undergoes significant changes under physiological conditions, phosphate can theoretically regulate interaction of 14-3-3 with phosphorylated targets. In order to check this hypothesis we analyzed effect of phosphate and other natural abundant anions on interaction of 14-3-3 with phosphorylated human small heat shock protein HspB6 (Hsp20) participating in regulation of different intracellular processes. Inorganic phosphate, glycerol-1-phosphate and glycerol-2-phosphate at physiologically relevant concentrations (5-15 mM) significantly destabilized complexes formed by 14-3-3ζ and phosphorylated HspB6 (pHspB6), presumably, via direct interaction with the substrate-binding site of 14-3-3. Phosphate also destabilized complexes between pHspB6 and 14-3-3γ or the monomeric mutant form of 14-3-3ζ. Inorganic sulfate and pyrophosphate were less effective in modulation of 14-3-3 interaction with its target protein. The inhibitory effect of all anions on pHspB6/14-3-3 interaction was concentration-dependent. It is hypothesized that physiological changes in phosphate anions concentration can modulate affinity and specificity of interaction of 14-3-3 with its multiple targets and therefore the actual phosphointeractome of 14-3-3.

Abstract
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was applied to investigate the thermal unfolding of rabbit skeletal muscle G-actin in its complexes with actin-binding proteins, cofilin, twinfilin, and profilin. The results show that the effects of these proteins on the thermal stability of G-actin depend on the nucleotide, ATP or ADP, bound in the nucleotide-binding cleft between actin subdomains 2 and 4. Interestingly, cofilin binding stabilizes both ATP-G-actin and ADP-G-actin, whereas twinfilin increases the thermal stability of the ADP-G-actin but not that of the ATP-G-actin. By contrast, profilin strongly decreases the thermal stability of the ATP-G-actin but has no appreciable effect on the ADP-G-actin. Comparison of these DSC results with literature data reveals a relationship between the effects of actin-binding proteins on the thermal unfolding of G-actin, stabilization or destabilization, and their effects on the rate of nucleotide exchange in the nucleotide-binding cleft, decrease or increase. These results suggest that the thermal stability of G-actin depends, at least partially, on the conformation of the nucleotide-binding cleft: the actin molecule is more stable when the cleft is closed, while an opening of the cleft leads to significant destabilization of G-actin. Thus, DSC studies of the thermal unfolding of G-actin can provide new valuable information about the conformational changes induced by actin-binding proteins in the actin molecule.

Abstract
A gene encoding superoxide dismutase was revealed in the genome of the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon Acidilobus saccharovorans. A recombinant expression vector was constructed and transformed into E. coli cells. The novel recombinant superoxide dismutase was purified and characterized. The enzyme was shown to be an iron-dependent superoxide dismutase able to bind various bivalent metals in the active site. According to differential scanning calorimetric data, the denaturation temperature of the enzyme is 107.3°C. The maximal activity of the Fe(II) reconstituted enzyme defined by xanthine oxidase assay is 1700 U/mg protein. Study of the thermal stability of the superoxide dismutase samples with various metal contents by tryptophan fluorescence indicated that the thermal stability and activity of the enzyme directly depend on the nature of the reconstituted metal and the degree of saturation of binding sites.

Abstract
Cyclase-associated proteins (CAPs) are among the most highly conserved regulators of actin dynamics, being present in organisms from mammals to apicomplexan parasites. Yeast, plant, and mammalian CAPs are large multidomain proteins, which catalyze nucleotide exchange on actin monomers from ADP to ATP and recycle actin monomers from actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin for new rounds of filament assembly. However, the mechanism by which CAPs promote nucleotide exchange is not known. Furthermore, how apicomplexan CAPs, which lack many domains present in yeast and mammalian CAPs, contribute to actin dynamics is not understood. We show that, like yeast Srv2/CAP, mouse CAP1 interacts with ADF/cofilin and ADP-G-actin through its N-terminal α-helical and C-terminal β-strand domains, respectively. However, in the variation to yeast Srv2/CAP, mouse CAP1 has two adjacent profilin-binding sites, and it interacts with ATP-actin monomers with high affinity through its WH2 domain. Importantly, we revealed that the C-terminal β-sheet domain of mouse CAP1 is essential and sufficient for catalyzing nucleotide exchange on actin monomers, although the adjacent WH2 domain is not required for this function. Supporting these data, we show that the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum CAP, which is entirely composed of the β-sheet domain, efficiently promotes nucleotide exchange on actin monomers. Collectively, this study provides evidence that catalyzing nucleotide exchange on actin monomers via the β-sheet domain is the most highly conserved function of CAPs from mammals to apicomplexan parasites. Other functions, including interactions with profilin and ADF/cofilin, evolved in more complex organisms to adjust the specific role of CAPs in actin dynamics.

Abstract
An aggregation test system based on the aggregation of UV-irradiated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from rabbit skeletal muscle has been proposed. On the basis of the measurements of the enzyme activity and differential scanning calorimetry data a conclusion has been made that UV radiation results in formation of damaged protein molecules with lower thermostability. It was shown that the order of aggregation rate for UV-irradiated GAPDH with respect to the protein was close to 2. This means that such a test system allows detecting the effect of various agents exclusively on the stage of aggregation of unfolded protein molecules. The influence of α-crystallin and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) on aggregation of UV-irradiated GAPDH was studied. Despite the fact that HP-β-CD accelerates thermal aggregation of non-irradiated GAPDH, in the case of aggregation of UV-irradiated GAPDH HP-β-CD reveals a purely protective effect.

Abstract
Interaction of the wild type (wt) heat shock protein Hsp27 and its three-dimensional (3D) mutant (mimicking phosphorylation at Ser15, 78, and 82) with rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase (PhK) has been studied under crowding conditions modeled by addition of 1 M trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO). According to the data of sedimentation velocity and dynamic light scattering, crowding provokes the formation of large-sized associates of both PhK and Hsp27. Under crowding conditions, small associates of PhK and Hsp27 interact with each other thus leading to dissociation of large homooligomers of each protein. Taking into account high concentrations of PhK in the cell, we speculate that native PhK might modulate the oligomeric state and chaperone-like activity of Hsp27.

Abstract
The study of the kinetics of thermal aggregation of glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) from rabbit skeletal muscles by dynamic light scattering at 48°C showed that 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) accelerated the aggregation process and induced the formation of the larger protein aggregates. The reason of the accelerating effect of HP-β-CD is destabilization of the protein molecule under action of HP-β-CD. This conclusion was supported by the data on differential scanning calorimetry and the kinetic data on thermal inactivation of Phb. It is assumed that destabilization of the Phb molecule is due to preferential binding of HP-β-CD to intermediates of protein unfolding in comparison with the original native state. The conclusion regarding the ability of the native Phb for binding of HP-β-CD was substantiated by the data on the enzyme inhibition by HP-β-CD. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Effects of alpha-crystallin and GroEL on the kinetics of thermal aggregation of rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) have been studied using dynamic light scattering and analytical ultracentrifugation. The analysis of the initial parts of the dependences of the hydrodynamic radius of protein aggregates on time shows that in the presence of alpha-crystallin or GroEL the kinetic regime of GAPDH aggregation is changed from the regime of diffusion-limited cluster-cluster aggregation to the regime of reaction-limited cluster-cluster aggregation, wherein the sticking probability for the colliding particles becomes lower the unity. In contrast to alpha-crystallin, GroEL does not interfere with formation of the start aggregates which include denatured GAPDH molecules. On the basis of the analytical ultracentrifugation data the conclusion has been made that the products of dissociation of GAPDH and alpha-crystallin or GroEL play an important role in the interactions of GAPDH and chaperones at elevated temperatures.

Abstract
Dynamic light scattering was used to study the interaction of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) and glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) from rabbit skeletal muscle with glycogen under molecular crowding conditions arising from the presence of 1 M trimethylamine N-oxide and at physiological ionic strength. The mean value of hydrodynamic radius of the initial glycogen particles was 52 nm. Crowding stimulated Phb and PhK combined binding on glycogen particles. Two-stage character of PhK binding to glycogen particles containing adsorbed Phb was found in the presence of the crowding agent. At the initial stage, limited size particles with hydrodynamic radius of approximately 220 nm are formed, whereas the second stage is accompanied by linear growth of hydrodynamic radius. Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) selectively inhibited PhK binding at the second stage. The data indicate that in the first stage Phb is involved in PhK binding by glycogen particles containing adsorbed Phb, whereas PhK binding in the second stage does not involve Phb.

Abstract
We applied different methods to analyze the effects of the recombinant wild-type small heat shock protein with an apparent molecular mass of 27 kD (Hsp27-wt) and its S15,78,82D mutant (Hsp27-3D), which mimics the naturally occurring phosphorylation of this protein, on the thermal denaturation and aggregation of F-actin. It has been shown that, at the weight ratio of Hsp27/actin equal to 1/4, both Hsp27-wt and Hsp27-3D do not affect the thermal unfolding of F-actin but effectively prevent the aggregation of F-actin by forming soluble complexes with denatured actin. The formation of these complexes occurs upon heating and accompanies the F-actin thermal denaturation. It is known that Hsp27-wt forms high-molecular-mass oligomers, whereas Hsp27-3D forms small dimers or tetramers. However, the complexes formed by Hsp27-wt and Hsp27-3D with denatured actin did not differ in their size, as measured by dynamic light scattering, and demonstrated the same hydrodynamic radius of 17-18 nm. On the other hand, the sedimentation coefficients of these complexes were distributed within the range 10-45 S in the case of Hsp27-3D and 18-60 S in the case of Hsp27-wt. Thus, the ability of Hsp27 to form soluble complexes with denatured actin does not significantly depend on the initial oligomeric state of Hsp27.

Abstract
The kinetics of thermal aggregation of glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) from rabbit skeletal muscle have been studied by dynamic light scattering (0.08M Hepes, pH 6.8, containing 0.1M NaCl; 48 degrees C). The hydrodynamic radius of the start aggregates determined from the initial linear parts of the dependences of the hydrodynamic radius (R(h)) on time was found to be 16.7 +/- 1.0 nm. At rather high values of time, the R(h) value for the protein aggregates becomes proportional to t(1/1.8) = t(0.56) suggesting that the aggregation process proceeds in the regime of diffusion-limited cluster-cluster aggregation. In the presence of alpha-crystallin, a protein possessing the chaperone-like activity, the process of protein aggregation switches to the regime of reaction-limited cluster-cluster aggregation as indicated by the exponential dependence of the R(h) value on time. It was shown that the addition of alpha-crystallin raises the rate of thermal inactivation of Phb. These data in combination with the results of the study of interaction of Phb with alpha-crystallin by analytical ultracentrifugation suggest that alpha-crystallin interacts with the intermediates of unfolding of the Phb molecule.

Abstract
Previously, we have shown that the small heat shock protein with apparent molecular mass 27 kDa (Hsp27) does not affect the thermal unfolding of F-actin, but effectively prevents aggregation of thermally denatured F-actin [Pivovarova AV, Mikhailova VV, Chernik IS, Chebotareva NA, Levitsky DI & Gusev NB (2005) Biochem Biophys Res Commun331, 1548-1553], and supposed that Hsp27 prevents heat-induced aggregation of F-actin by forming soluble complexes with denatured actin. In the present work, we applied dynamic light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation and size exclusion chromatography to examine the properties of complexes formed by denatured actin with a recombinant human Hsp27 mutant (Hsp27-3D) mimicking the naturally occurring phosphorylation of this protein at Ser15, Ser78, and Ser82. Our results show that formation of these complexes occurs upon heating and accompanies the F-actin thermal denaturation. All the methods show that the size of actin-Hsp27-3D complexes decreases with increasing Hsp27-3D concentration in the incubation mixture and that saturation occurs at approximately equimolar concentrations of Hsp27-3D and actin. Under these conditions, the complexes exhibit a hydrodynamic radius of approximately 16 nm, a sedimentation coefficient of 17-20 S, and a molecular mass of about 2 MDa. It is supposed that Hsp27-3D binds to denatured actin monomers or short oligomers dissociated from actin filaments upon heating and protects them from aggregation by forming relatively small and highly soluble complexes. This mechanism might explain how small heat shock proteins prevent aggregation of denatured actin and by this means protect the cytoskeleton and the whole cell from damage caused by accumulation of large insoluble aggregates under heat shock conditions.

Abstract
Thermal aggregation of rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase b (Phb) has been investigated using dynamic light scattering under conditions of a constant rate of temperature increase (1 K/min). The linear behavior of the dependence of the hydrodynamic radius on temperature for Phb aggregation is consistent with the idea that thermal aggregation of proteins proceeds in the kinetic regime wherein the rate of aggregation is limited by diffusion of the interacting particles (the regime of "diffusion-limited cluster-cluster aggregation"). In the presence of alpha-crystallin, a protein exhibiting chaperone-like activity, the dependence of the hydrodynamic radius on temperature follows the exponential law; this suggests that the aggregation process proceeds in the kinetic regime where the sticking probability for colliding particles becomes lower than unity (the regime of "reaction-limited cluster-cluster aggregation"). Based on analysis of the ratio between the light scattering intensity and the hydrodynamic radius of Phb aggregates, it has been concluded that the addition of alpha-crystallin results in formation of smaller size starting aggregates. The data on differential scanning calorimetry indicate that alpha-crystallin interacts with the intermediates of the unfolding process of the Phb molecule. The proposed scheme of thermal denaturation and aggregation of Phb includes the stage of reversible dissociation of dimers of Phb into monomers, the stage of the formation of the starting aggregates from the denatured monomers of Phb, and the stage of the sticking of the starting aggregates and higher order aggregates. Dissociation of Phb dimer into monomers at elevated temperatures has been confirmed by analytical ultracentrifugation.

Abstract
The study of thermal denaturation of rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) in the presence of alpha-crystallin by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that the position of the maximum on the DSC profile (T(max)) was shifted toward lower temperatures with increasing alpha-crystallin concentration. The diminishing GAPDH stability in the presence of alpha-crystallin has been explained assuming that heating of GAPDH induces dissociation of the tetrameric form of the enzyme into dimers interacting with alpha-crystallin. The dissociation of the enzyme tetramer was shown by sedimentation velocity at 45 degrees C. Suppression of thermal aggregation of GAPDH by alpha-crystallin was studied by dynamic light scattering under the conditions wherein temperature was elevated at a constant rate. The construction of the light scattering intensity versus the hydrodynamic radius (R(h)) plots enabled estimating the hydrodynamic radius of the start aggregates (R(h,0)). When aggregation of GAPDH was studied in the presence of alpha-crystallin, the start aggregates of lesser size were observed.

Abstract
Thermal denaturation and aggregation of rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) have been studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and analytical ultracentrifugation. The maximum of the protein thermal transition (T(m)) increased with increasing the protein concentration, suggesting that the denaturation process involves the stage of reversible dissociation of the enzyme tetramer into the oligomeric forms of lesser size. The dissociation of the enzyme tetramer was shown by sedimentation velocity at 45 degrees C. The DLS data support the mechanism of protein aggregation that involves a stage of the formation of the start aggregates followed by their sticking together. The hydrodynamic radius of the start aggregates remained constant in the temperature interval from 37 to 55 degrees C and was independent of the protein concentration (R(h,0) approximately 21 nm; 10 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.5). A strict correlation between thermal aggregation of GAPDH registered by the increase in the light scattering intensity and protein denaturation characterized by DSC has been proved.

Abstract
The interaction of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) with rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase has been studied. Direct evidence of binding of phosphorylase kinase with FAD has been obtained using analytical ultracentrifugation. It has been shown that FAD prevents the formation of the enzyme-glycogen complex, but exerts practically no effect on the phosphorylase kinase activity. The dependence of the relative rate of phosphorylase kinase-glycogen complex formation on the concentration of FAD has cooperative character (the Hill coefficient is 1.3). Under crowding conditions in the presence of 1 M trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), FAD has an inhibitory effect on self-association of phosphorylase kinase. The data suggest that the complex of glycogen metabolism enzymes in protein-glycogen particles may function as a flavin depot in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The effect of three osmolytes, trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), betaine and proline, on the interaction of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b with allosteric inhibitor FAD has been examined. In the absence of osmolyte, the interaction is described by a single intrinsic dissociation constant (17.8 microM) for two equivalent and independent binding sites on the dimeric enzyme. However, the addition of osmolytes gives rise to sigmoidal dependencies of fractional enzyme-site saturation upon free inhibitor concentration. The source of this cooperativity has been shown by difference sedimentation velocity to be an osmolyte-mediated isomerization of phosphorylase b to a smaller dimeric state with decreased affinity for FAD. These results thus have substantiated a previous inference that the tendency for osmolyte-enhanced self-association of dimeric glycogen phosphorylase b in the presence of AMP was being countered by the corresponding effect of molecular crowding on an isomerization of dimer to a smaller, nonassociating state.

Abstract
The effects of the osmolytes trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), betaine, proline, and glycine on the kinetics of inactivation and aggregation of rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase b by guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) have been studied. It is shown that the osmolytes TMAO and betaine exhibit the highest protective efficacy against phosphorylase b inactivation. A test system for studying the effects of macromolecular crowding induced by osmolytes on aggregation of proteins is proposed. TMAO and glycine increase the rate of phosphorylase b aggregation induced by GuHCl.

Abstract
Effect of recombinant chicken small heat shock protein with molecular mass 24 kDa (Hsp24) and recombinant human small heat shock protein with molecular mass 27 kDa (Hsp27) on the heat-induced denaturation and aggregation of skeletal F-actin was analyzed by means of differential scanning calorimetry and light scattering. All small heat shock proteins did not affect thermal unfolding of F-actin measured by differential scanning calorimetry, but effectively prevented aggregation of thermally denatured actin. Small heat shock protein formed stable complexes with denatured (but not with intact) F-actin. The size of these highly soluble complexes was smaller than the size of intact F-actin filaments. It is supposed that protective effect of small heat shock proteins on the cytoskeleton is at least partly due to prevention of aggregation of denatured actin.

Abstract
Cell cytoplasm contains high concentrations of high-molecular-weight components that occupy a substantial part of the volume of the medium (crowding conditions). The effect of crowding on biochemical processes proceeding in the cell (conformational transitions of biomacromolecules, assembling of macromolecular structures, protein folding, protein aggregation, etc.) is discussed in this review. The excluded volume concept, which allows the effects of crowding on biochemical reactions to be quantitatively described, is considered. Experimental data demonstrating the biochemical effects of crowding imitated by both low-molecular-weight and high-molecular-weight crowding agents are summarized.

Abstract
Self-association of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) and its interaction with glycogen (M=5500 kDa) and phosphorylase b (Phb) has been studied using analytical ultracentrifugation and turbidimetry under the conditions of molecular crowding arising from the presence of high concentrations of osmolytes. In accordance with the predictions of the molecular crowding theory, trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and betaine greatly favor self-association of PhK induced by Mg2+ and Ca2+ and PhK interaction with glycogen. In contrast, proline suppresses these processes, probably, due to its specific interaction with PhK. All osmolytes tested prevented the complex formation between PhK and its physiological substrate, Phb. The specific interactions of PhK and Phb with glycogen, in the living cell, presumably is a factor allowing the negative effect of crowding on the recognition of Phb by PhK to be overcome.
