Abstract
Chemical chaperones are low-molecular-weight compounds that suppress protein aggregation. They can influence different stages of the aggregation process-the stage of protein denaturation, the nucleation stage and the stage of aggregate growth-and this may lead to a change in the aggregation kinetic regime. Here, the possibility of changing the kinetic regime in the presence of a chemical chaperone 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (2-HP-β-CD) was investigated for a test system based on the thermally induced aggregation of yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (yADH) at 56 °C. According to differential scanning calorimetry data, 2-HP-β-CD did not affect the stage of the protein molecule unfolding. Dynamic light scattering data indicated changes in the aggregation kinetics of yADH during the nucleation and aggregate growth stages in the presence of the chaperone. The analysis of kinetic curves showed that the order of aggregation with respect to protein (nc), calculated for the stage of aggregate growth, changed from nc = 1 to nc = 2 with the addition of 100 mM 2-HP-β-CD. The mechanism of 2-HP-β-CD action on the yADH thermal aggregation leading to a change in its kinetic regime of aggregation is discussed.

Abstract
The importance of studying the structural stability of proteins is determined by the structure-function relationship. Protein stability is influenced by many factors among which are freeze-thaw and thermal stresses. The effect of trehalose, betaine, sorbitol and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) on the stability and aggregation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) upon heating at 50 °C or freeze-thawing was studied by dynamic light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, analytical ultracentrifugation and circular dichroism spectroscopy. A freeze-thaw cycle resulted in the complete loss of the secondary and tertiary structure, and aggregation of GDH. All the cosolutes suppressed freeze-thaw- and heat-induced aggregation of GDH and increased the protein thermal stability. The effective concentrations of the cosolutes during freeze-thawing were lower than during heating. Sorbitol exhibited the highest anti-aggregation activity under freeze-thaw stress, whereas the most effective agents stabilizing the tertiary structure of GDH were HPCD and betaine. HPCD and trehalose were the most effective agents suppressing GDH thermal aggregation. All the chemical chaperones stabilized various soluble oligomeric forms of GDH against both types of stress. The data on GDH were compared with the effects of the same cosolutes on glycogen phosphorylase b during thermal and freeze-thaw-induced aggregation. This research can find further application in biotechnology and pharmaceutics.

Abstract
Three-finger proteins (TFPs) are small proteins with characteristic three-finger β-structural fold stabilized by the system of conserved disulfide bonds. These proteins have been found in organisms from different taxonomic groups and perform various important regulatory functions or act as components of snake venoms. Recently, four TFPs (Lystars 1–4) with unknown function were identified in the coelomic fluid proteome of starfish A. rubens. Here we analyzed the genomes of A. rubens and A. planci starfishes and predicted additional five and six proteins containing three-finger domains, respectively. One of them, named Lystar5, is expressed in A. rubens coelomocytes and has sequence homology to the human brain neuromodulator Lynx2. The three-finger structure of Lystar5 close to the structure of Lynx2 was confirmed by NMR. Similar to Lynx2, Lystar5 negatively modulated α4β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) expressed in X. laevis oocytes. Incubation with Lystar5 decreased the expression of acetylcholine esterase and α4 and α7 nAChR subunits in the hippocampal neurons. In summary, for the first time we reported modulator of the cholinergic system in starfish.
