Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Cross-linking to Assess Subunit Interaction of Recombinant Human Coproporphyrinogen OxidaseJason R. Stephenson, Nancy E. Thomas, Jon A. Friesen, Marjorie A. JonesTo provide further evidence for a dimeric form of coproporphyrinogen oxidase reported using the conventional hydrodynamic methods, bifunctional cross-linkers were incubated with purified, recombinant human coproporphyrinogen oxidase to determine subunit interaction in solution. The use of cross-linkers provides an effective way to demonstrate subunit association and allows for assessment of activity upon covalent cross-linking. Following incubation with selected cross-linkers, enzyme … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,594 accessesView PDFCite
