摘要
pH-dependent aggregation and dissociation of yellow fluorescent protein zFP538 were studied by gel-filtration, dynamic light scattering, and fluorescence spectroscopy. According to the gel-filtration data for low concentration of zFP538 the molecular weight of aggregates decreases upon changing pH from alkaline to neutral. Dynamic light scattering showed that zFP538 aggregates strongly in concentrated solutions. Aggregation influences heavily the pH-profile of fluorescence of zFP538 and stabilizes zFP538 against fluorescence quenching on acidification. Reduction of the protein concentration results in the shifting of pH profile to the alkaline region. Conclusion: aggregation of the yellow fluorescent protein zFP538 depends on pH; dilution of the protein solution is accompanied by dissociation of zFP538 aggregates under neutral and alkaline pH.
