title: Oligomeric state of the muscle glycogen phosphorylase b in the system of reversed micelles of aerosol OT in octane.
abstract: The oligomeric state and formation of supramolecular structures of glycogen phosphorylase b from rabbit skeletal muscle was studied in the system of aerosol OT (AOT) reversed micelles in octane. The sedimentation experiments have shown that the enzyme oligomeric state depends on the degree of micelle hydration. The enzyme monomer, dimer, trimer, tetramer, hexamer, and octamer were observed, depending on the degree of hydration.
