Description The circular dichroic spectra of a-globulin have been obtained under various solution conditions of sodium dodecyl sulfate, acid, alkali, urea and guanidine hydrochloride. The protein in phosphate buffer pH 7.4, 0 . 2 , h~a s about 25% bstructure and 5% a-helix, the rest being aperiodic or irregular structure. Sodium dodecyl sulfate induced more a-helical structure in the protein. The protein had nearly 20% a-helix at 1 x lo-= M SDS. At extreme acid or alkaline pH, the protein had no a-helix with Pstructure decreasing with further extremes of pH. The protein is represented by 100% aperiodic structure in 6.6 m urea and in 6.0 m guanidine hydrochloride solutions. The above results are discussed in view of some of the earlier results with regard to the association-dissociation and denaturation behavior of a-globulin under various solution conditions.
