We have found that D2O stabilizes the protein against inactivation at both 4 and 37 °C. In H2O-based buffer, tubulin was completely inactivated after 40 h at 4 °C, but in buffer prepared in D2O, noactivity was lost after 54 h. Tubulin was completely inactivated at 37 °C in 8 h in H2O buffer, but only20% of the activity was lost in D2O buffer. Tubulin also lost its colchicine binding activity at a slowerrate in D2O. The deuterated solvent retarded an aggregation process that occurs during incubation at bothtemperatures. Inactivation in H2O buffer was partially reversed by transferring the protein to D2O buffer;however, aggregation was not reversed. The level of binding of BisANS, a probe of exposed hydrophobicsites in proteins, increases during the inactivation of tubulin. In D2O, the rate of this increase is slowedsomewhat. We propose that D2O has its stabilizing effect on a conformational step or steps that involvethe disruption of hydrophobic forces. The conformational change is followed by an aggregation processthat cannot be reversed by D2O. As reported previously [Ito, T., and Sato, H. (1984) Biochim. Biophys.

, 21-27], we found that D2O stimulates the formation of microtubules from tubulin. We alsoobserved that the products of assembly in D2O/8% DMSO consisted of a high percentage of ribbonstructures and incompletely folded microtubules. When these polymers were disassembled and reassembledin H2O/8% DMSO, the products were microtubules. We suggest that the combination of D2O and DMSO,both stimulators of tubulin assembly, leads to the rapid production of nuclei that lead to the formation ofribbon structures rather than microtubules.

In some cases, theassembly was monitored by the increase in turbidity at 350nm in reactions carried out in 400 µL volumes.

Inhibition of theaggregation process is opposite to the effect of the solvent A number of studies of the effects of D2O on protein on tubulin polymerization and on the aggregation of the aggregation have been reported. In many cases, D2O proteins described above. It has been proposed that the stabilized the aggregated form of oligomeric proteins. For mechanism of tubulin inactivation involves a rate-limiting example, the deuterated solvent stabilized the oligomeric unimolecular conformational change before aggregation form of halophilic malate dehydrogenase (10), lactic dehy- occurs because the rate of tubulin aggregation does not show drogenase (11), and glutamate dehydrogenase (11).

This two-step increased the level of aggregation of phycocyanin (12), the process, which has also been proposed for the inactivation level of association of the dimer form of -lactoglobulin A of -lactoglobulin (22), is represented by the equation to form the octamer (13), the rate of actin polymerization(14), the rate of polymerization of flagellin (15), and the rate as well as the extent of subunit association of N10-formyl-tetrahydrofolate synthetase (16).

Thus, exposure of nonpolar groups protein structure (reviewed in ref 22).

The BisANS binding data are been attributed to the enhancement of hydrophobic inter- difficult to assess, however, because it is not known what actions because such interactions are stronger in D2O than steps in the inactivation process contribute to the increase in H2O (23). It has also been proposed that deuterium bonds in the extent of BisANS binding and what effect aggregate are stronger than hydrogen bonds (24), and several groups formation has on the binding. It should also be pointed out have suggested that D2O may have its effect, at least in part, that in measuring inactivation, the protein was incubated at on hydrogen bonding in proteins (13, 15, 20). However, in 0 °C but assembly was measured at 37 °C. We do not know many cases in which the solvent isotope effect on hydrogen whether the temperature shift has different consequences on bonding was studied, enthalpic and entropic effects canceled the protein in D2O and H2O. Very likely, D2O does not affect each other and, as a result, there was little effect of D2O the aggregation step because aggregation was not reversed (7). Another factor that must be considered is the effect of by the solvent, whereas the inactivation was reversed in the solvent on the pKa values of amino acid residue side proportion to the amount of dimer present in solution. It is chains in the protein (25). The complexity of the solvent more probable that D2O reversed a conformational(s) state isotope effect can be seen in a study on the refolding of hen to an active form(s) or perhaps prevented the inactivation egg white lysozyme in which it was not possible to contribute of a metastable state upon the temperature shift to 37 °C.
