Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is a potent immunomodulatory cytokine whose physiological roles are modulated by the extracellular matrix. Here, circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques are used to demonstrate that low molecular weight heparin and chondroitin sulfate cause significant changes in secondary and tertiary structure of IFN-γ. The results suggest that heparin and chondroitin sulfate modulate IFN-γ activity by causing structural changes in the IFN-γ dimer.
