THE EFFECT OF TOPOGRAPHY-INDUCED MECHANOTRANSDUCTION ON EXPRESSION LEVELS OF FOCAL ADHESION-RELATED GENES IN NEURO-2A CELLS
Culfa, Şeyda; Son, Çağdaş Devrim; Bek, Alpan; Department of Biochemistry (2022-8-29)
Cells' interaction with their environment and how their responses to different mechanical cues are regulated have attracted attention for decades. These mechanical cues vary from topography to substrate stiffness. Knowing how topography-induced cell responses are regulated might give useful information about cell behaviors in health and disease states. This knowledge can be utilized to manipulate cell behaviors for different purposes. Topography-dependent cell behaviors rely on various parameters such as ce...
The effect of crosslinking on thermal inactivation of cellulases
Bilen, J; Bakir, U (1998-04-22)
Cellulase complex was crosslinked by using three different crosslinkers, dimethyl suberimidate (DMS), dimethyl adipimidate (DMA) and dimethyl-3-3'-dithiobispropionimidate (DTBP) and their effects on thermal inactivation were investigated. These reagents are all homobifunctional bisimidoesters having different crosslinking distances and crosslink only amino groups to each other. No significant activity loss was observed due to crosslinking with none of the crosslinkers used. In general, DMA and DTBP crosslin...
The effect of cysteine-43 mutation on thermostability and kinetic properties of citrate synthase from Thermoplasma acidophilum
Kocabıyık, Semra; Russel, RJM; Danson, MJ; Hough, DW (Elsevier BV, 1996-07-05)
In this study, we have substituted serine-43 by cysteine in the recombinant citrate synthase from a moderately thermophilic Archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum, for site-specific attachment of labels and have investigated the effects of this mutation on the biochemical properties and thermal stability of the enzyme. Both wild-type and the mutant enzymes were purified to homogenity using affinity chromatography on Matrex Gel Red A. The mutant Thermoplasma citrate synthase is very similar to wild-type citrate s...

The effect of valine substitution for glycine in the dimer interface of citrate synthase from Thermoplasma acidophilum on stability and activity
Kocabıyık, Semra (Elsevier BV, 2000-08-28)
To determine the role of hydrophobic interactions in the dimer interface of citrate synthase (CS) from Thermoplasma (Tp) acidophilum in thermostabilization, we have used site-directed mutagenesis to replace Gly 196 by Val on the helix L of the subunit interface. Recombinant wild-type and Gly 196 mutant TpCS enzymes were largely identical in terms of substrate specificities (K-m for oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA). However, the mutation not only reduced catalytic activity (about 10-fold) (i.e., V-max, K-cat and...
