pubmed:abstractText
Luminescence techniques have been used to investigate the interaction of GroEL with polylysine tagged with a fluorescent probe. The fluorescence emitted by anthraniloyl-polylysine, upon excitation at 320 nm, is enhanced by the addition of stoichiometric amounts of GroEL. The equilibrium dissociation constant of the complex (Kd=50 nM) was determined by fluorometric titrations. The rate and extent of recovery of the catalytic activity of denatured mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase, assisted by GroEL, is influenced by either polylysine or anthraniloyl-polylysine. It is suggested that interaction of the positively charged poly-amino acid with the apical domain of GroEL prevents binding of the unfolded protein substrate.
