Abstract

Effect of acid pH on sunflower 11s protein has been monitored by the techniques of ultracentrifugation, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, viscosity, turbidity, difference ultraviolet spectra, fluorescence spectra, and near- and far-ultraviolet circular dichroism spectra. Ultracentrifugation and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis suggest the dissociation of the protein up to pH -3.0 and reaggregation below this place. Viscosity, turbidity, difference spectra, fluorescence spectra, and circular dichroism spectra suggest the denaturation of the protein up to pH -3.0 and refolding of the protein molecule below this pH.
