The influence of three chemical chaperones: glycerol, 4-hexylresorcinol, and 5-methylresorcinol on the structure, equilibrium fluctuations, and the functional activity of the hydrophilic enzyme lysozyme and the transmembrane reaction center (RC) protein from Rb. sphaeroides in a broad range of concentrations has been studied. Selected chemical chaperones are strongly different by the structure and action on hydrophilic and membrane proteins.

Kinetic characteristics of model enzymes and physicochemical properties of globular proteins modified by chemical analogues of low-molecular-weight microbial autoregulators (alkylhydroxybenzenes, AHBs) have been studied. C7 and C12 AHB homologues were used, differing in the length of the alkyl radical and the capacity for weak physicochemical interactions. Both homologues affected the degree of protein swelling, viscosity, and the degree of hydrophobicity.

Radial distribution functions were deduced by Fourier transform analysis of angular dependences of diffuse x-ray scattering intensities for the following proteins with different hydration degree: water-soluble a-protein myoglobin, water-soluble alpha+beta protein lysozyme, and transmembrane proteins of photosynthetic reaction centers from purple bacteria Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Blastochlorii viridis. The results of Fourier analysis of x-ray scattering intensities give the quantitative characteristics of the mechanisms underlying the influence of water on the formation of biomacromolecules. Water, on the one hand, weakens the intraglobular hydrogen bond net, loosens the protein structure, and increases the internal conformational dynamics.

The angle dependencies of diffuse x-ray scattering intensities were studied in a wide range of angles from 3 to 80 degrees for water-soluble and membrane proteins with a different structural organization: alpha-helical protein myoglobin, alpha-helical protein serum albumen, alpha + beta protein lysozyme, and transmembrane proteins of photosynthetic reaction centers (RC) from purple bacteria Rhodobacter sphaeroides, and Blastochlorii (Rhodopseudomonas) viridis containing cytocrome c, situated out side the membrane, and for H and L+M subunits of membrane protein of reaction center from Rb. sphaeroides for various hydration degrees. The hydration/dehydration process was studied for water-soluble proteins (within hydration range from h = 0.

By means of RSMR changes of human serum albumen intramolecular mobility by addition of 1.5% and 7.5% of glutar dialdehyde (GD) in concentrated protein solution, heat denaturation of a protein or substitution of water by water-glycerol solvent with amount of water to glycerol: 1 to 2 were studied.

Conditions (regions of hydration degrees and temperatures) are considered at which effects observed in Rayleigh Scattering of Mössbauer Radiation and Mössbauer Absorption Spectroscopy can be attributed to changes in intramolecular mobility, rather than contribution of different types of motions of macromolecules as a whole.

Hydration relationships of the elastic scattering fraction of Mössbauer radiation were studied for human serum albumin (HSA), pancreatic trypsin inhibitor and lysozyme within hydration degrees 0 less than or equal to h less than or equal to 0.75 g/g (at T = 295 degrees K) and temperatures 100K less than or equal to T less than or equal to 320 K (for HSA only at h = 0.03; 0.

A model was developed to describe conformational motion of macromolecules. A new formula was derived for the Debye-Waller factor in accordance with this model. The model proposes the existence of fluidlike motions of fragments within the volume of some A3.
