Revised Manuscript Received August 26, 1985 abstract: In refolding of iso-2 cytochrome c from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, there are two slow folding reactions, rla and rlb. The slower of the slow reactions, rla=100-200 s, is observed only by absorbance changes, while rlb (10-20-fold faster) is detected by fluorescence changes. The temperature dependence of the rates of these reactions has been measured: for kinetic experiments endingbelow the folding-unfolding transition zone (pH 7.2, 0.3 M guanidine hydrochloride, 5-30 C), the activation enthalpies are AH*= 27 keal/mol for rla and 21 keal/mol for rlb. Double-jump (unfolding, then refolding) experiments demonstrate that thetwo sets of species responsible for the slow folding reactions are generated slowly but at different rates under unfolding conditions (3 M guanidine hydrochloride, pH 7.2, 20 C). Finally, as a test for changes in the population of the slow refolding species under different unfolding conditions, the amplitudes for slow refolding have been measured as a function of the initial unfoldingconditions with the final refoldingconditions held constant. Over the range accessible to measurement in the absence of interference from other reactions, the amplitudes for fluorescence-detected (alb) and absorbance-detected (ala) slow folding are independent of guanidine hydrochloride concentration and pH in the initial conditions. Although a full description requires a more complex explanation, many of the properties of the slow folding species are those expected for proline imide bond isomerization.
