Figure 4. Complex formation by inactive variants of Synechocystis 6803 Deg/HtrA proteases in the absence and the presence of substrate.

Figure 4

Size-exclusion chromatography of (A) rHtrASA (B) rHhoASA and (C) rHhoBSA. Black lines show elution profiles obtained in the absence of substrate, and grey lines show profiles after pre-incubation with β-casein in a 3:1 molar ratio of protease/substrate (A and B) or a 1:3 ratio (C). Lower panels show aliquots of the size-exclusion chromatography fractions separated by SDS/PAGE and visualized by Coomassie-Blue staining. The exclusion volume (V0) of the columns and the elution volumes of selected marker proteins are indicated with black arrowheads. Ve, elution volume.
