摘要:
Lactoferrin (LF) is a Fe3+-transferring glycoprotein and is contained in human barrier fluids, blood, and milk. LF is an acute phase protein, is involved in nonspecific defense, and displays a unique set of biological functions. Small-angle X-ray scattering and light scattering experiments demonstrated that DNA and oligosaccharides added to LF with various levels of initial oligomerization increased the oligomerization rate. Almost complete dissociation into monomers was observed when 1 M NaCl was added to LF oligomers obtained in the presence of DNA, oligosaccharides, and nucleotides, previously identified as oligomerization effectors. LF complexes obtained with different oligomerization effectors differed in stability. Incubation with 50 mM MgCl2 completely destructed LF complexes formed in the presence of ATP and oligosaccharides but only partly destructed AMP- and d(pT)(10)-dependent complexes, which was followed by the formation of new complexes with a higher salt stability. A possible role of oligomerization in various LF functions is discussed.
