Abstract
The effects of pH, temperature and guanidine hydrochloride concentration on the structure of ubiquitin, a polypeptide which can activate adenylate cyclase and can mimic thymopoietin induced differentiation of prothymocytes, were monitored using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This relatively small polypeptide (molecular weight of 8541) exhibits a remarkable stability towards pH and temperature changes. At 7 M guanidine hydrochloride concentration, the structure of ubiquitin is essentially a random coil.Entities:
