Abstract:
The equilibrium hetero-association of NADH oxidase and peroxiredoxin was characterized by means of independently conducted measurements of composition-gradient sedimentation equilibrium and composition-gradient static light scattering. Results obtained from both experiments were quantitatively accounted for by a model according to which a dimer of NADH oxidase forms a 1:1 equilibrium complex with a decamer of peroxiredoxin under the conditions of these experiments. The best-fit equilibrium constants for heteroassociation of the two proteins obtained from the two measurements were found to be identical to well within the uncertainty of estimate of each of the two methods. The relative virtues of each of the methods are discussed.

What is an Electrochemical Gradient?
The chemical gradient relies on differences in the abundance of a substance on the outside versus the inside of a cell and flows from areas of high to low ion concentration. In contrast, the electrical gradient revolves around an...
Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
