Research Abstract |
The denaturation of hen egg ovalbumin and rabit skeletal muscle myosin caused by freezing and thawing was measured. The change in theATP ase activity (myosin) and the turbidity (myosin and ovalbumin) were remarkable at lower concentrations of myosine and ovalbumin. The denaturation of both of the proteins was accererated at freezing temperature close to 0 C. The proteins were protected against the denaturation by the addition of non-ionic detergents at 0.2 %. Higher concentration (20 %) of glycerol was necessary to protect the proteins at the same level as 0.2% Tween 20. The cooperative action of glycerol and Tween 20 was observed. The addition of both Tween 20 (0.1 %) and glycerol (1 %) kept the proteins at native condition.
