Polypeptidyl derivatives of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease
(RNase) containing two or three tyrosine chains
with an average of two to three residues per chain have
been prepared. The effects of various perturbants such as
neutral salts, ethanol, urea and guanidine hydrochloride
on the thermal transition of the derivatives have been
studied....

In order to examine some possible tyrosyl interactions, poly-tyrosyl lysozyme and poly-O-methyltyrosyl lysozyme were prepared and their solubilities were compared. Both derivatives exhibited
similar pH dependent solubilities, showing a minimum solubility at
about pH 8. Their solubilities varied with temperature, having a
positive enthalpy of solution. The effect of a...
