Abstract

Self‐association of phosphorylase kinase (PhK) and its interaction with glycogen (M=5500 kDa) and phosphorylase b (Ph__b__) has been studied using analytical ultracentrifugation and turbidimetry under the conditions of molecular crowding arising from the presence of high concentrations of osmolytes. In accordance with the predictions of the molecular crowding theory, trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) and betaine greatly favor self‐association of PhK induced by Mg^2+^ and Ca^2+^ and PhK interaction with glycogen. In contrast, proline suppresses these processes, probably, due to its specific interaction with PhK. All osmolytes tested prevented the complex formation between PhK and its physiological substrate, Ph__b__. The specific interactions of PhK and Ph__b__ with glycogen, in the living cell, presumably is a factor allowing the negative effect of crowding on the recognition of Ph__b__ by PhK to be overcome.

Chlorpromazine is an antipsychotic agent with poor aqueous solubility. Complexation with SBE 7 -b-CD can aid intravenous delivery through increasing the apparent solubility of chlorpromazine. However, chlorpromazine has also been known to self-associate. This selfassociation can influence its capaci
