Description The self-association of a-chymotrypsin at its isoelectric point has been studied in two buffer solutions of p (ionic strength) = 0.1: phosphate buffer (pH 6.9) and Tris buffer (pH 8.3). The weight-average molecular weight (by the Archibald method) and sedimentation coefficient were determined as a function of protein concentration. The molecular weights measured were the same in both the buffers. In sedimentation velocity experiments unimodal peaks were obtained at all the protein concentrations. The molecular weight data could be fitted to a nonideal indefinite self-association equilibrium or a hexamerization equilibrium with all the intermediate species coexisting. The sedimentation data could be fitted to an octamerization equilibrium.
