Helix pomatia beta-haemocyanin was split into dissociation products by varying the pH and the ionic strength. The purity of the solution was checked in an ultracentrifuge. Two defined dissociation products were studied in solution by small-angle X-ray scattering. In Tris-HC1 buffer, pH 8.0 and ionic strength 1 M, the following parameters of the dissociation product (tenths) could be determined: molecular weight = 7 x 10(5), volume = 1350 nm3, radius of gyration = 9.0 nm, maximal distance = 28.3 nm, radius of the spherical subunits about 2.6 nm, number of the subunits approximately 19. Tris-HC1 buffer, pH 8.7 and ionic strength 0.01 M, yielded dissociation products (twentieths) with the following parameters: molecular weight = 3.5 x 10(5), volume = 635 nm3, radius of gyration = 7.5 nm, maximal distance = 21.9 nm, radius of the spherical subunits about 2.5 nm. With this information, the assumption that the larger fragment was double the smaller one and the latest biochemical and morphological results, theoretical scattering curves of models were calculated and compared with the experimental curves. Two models are suggested which argee well with the dissociation products in radius of gyration and scattering.
