Hydrodynamic properties of PulS, Sdom, and the PulS-Sdom complex
| PulS | Sdom | PulS-Sdom | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Molecular massa | NDb | 9.7 ± 0.1 kDa | 22.1 ± 0.7 kDa |
| Sedimentation coefficient (10−13 s)c | 1.4 ± 0.1 | 1.1 ± 0.1 | 1.9 ± 0.1 |
| RH (nm)c | 1.7 | 2.5 | 2.7 |
| Frictional ratio (f/f0)d | 1.2 | 1.9 | 1.5 |
| Intrinsic viscosity (ml·g−1)a | NDb | 16.9 ± 0.7 | 5.9 ± 0.1 |
| Viscosity increment, νe | NDb | 4.4 | 2.5 |
a Data were determined by static light scattering and viscometry experiments using size exclusion chromatography-coupled triple detector array.
b ND means not determined.
c Data were determined by analytical ultracentrifugation experiments.
d Data were calculated from the experimental hydrodynamic radius and the hydrodynamic radius of an anhydrous and spherical molecule with equivalent molecular mass and partial specific volume.
e Data were calculated using Einstein's viscosity relation, see under “Experimental Procedures.”
