Materials and MethodsHemoglobin 0 subunits and the polypeptides 0 (1-55), 0-(56-146), and apo-0 (l-146) were prepared as previously described (Fronticelli-Bucci & Bucci, 1975; Fronticelli & Gold, 1976). In these preparationsall of the available cysteines at 093 and 0112 are carboxamidomethylated, so to prevent formation of intra-and intermolecular disulfide bonds. The state of aggregation of these polypeptides is shown in Table I where data are collected from experiments of sedi-mentation velocity and equilibrium. Some of the data have been already published from this laboratory (Fronticelli-Bucci & Bucci, 1975; Fronticelli & Gold, 1976; Otón et al., 1981). The heme-free polypeptides are self-associating systems whose average molecular weight is concentration dependent. The data presented in Table I indicate that at the concen-trations used in spectropolarimetric experiments, 0.04-0.09 mg/mL, the heme-free peptides were essentially monomeric. For apo-0 (l-146), the weight-average molecular weight at 0.07 mg/mL was between that of a monomer and that of a dimer. It should be remembered that weight-average molecular weights are biased in favor of the larger molecular species. Table I also shows that carboxamidomethylated 0 subunits were monomeric under all conditions. Protein concentration was measured spectrophotometrically for carbon monoxy 0 subunits by using e= 14000 M" 1 cm" 1 at 540 nm. For the heme-free peptides quantitative amino acid analysis was used. Alternatively, for apo-0 (l-146), spectro-photometric measurements were performed by using£= 1.0 mL mg" 1 cm" 1 at 280 nm, in 0.1 M NaOH.1 Abbreviations: apo-0 (l-146), heme-free derivative of the ß subunits of hemoglobin; 0 (1-55), polypeptide including the first 55 residues of hemoglobin; 0 (56-145), polypeptide including the indicated residues of the 0 subunits of hemoglobin; 0 subunits, hemoglobin 0 subunits; Gdn-HCl, guanidine hydrochloride.
