SH2 domains are protein domains that modulate protein–protein interactions through a specific interaction with sequences containing phosphorylated tyrosines. In this work, we analyze the folding pathway of the C-terminal SH2 domain of the p85 regulatory subunit of the protein PI3K, which presents a proline residue in a cis configuration in the loop between the βE and βF strands. By employing single and double jump folding and unfolding experiments, we demonstrate the presence of an on-pathway intermediate that transiently accumulates during (un)folding. By comparing the kinetics of folding of the wild-type protein to that of a site-directed variant of C-SH2 in which the proline was replaced with an alanine, we demonstrate that this intermediate is dictated by the peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerization. The results are discussed in the light of previous work on the effect of peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerization on folding events.

The kinetics of the thermally induced cis-trans-isomerization of protonated azobenzene de­pend upon the amount of acid in a mixed H2SO4-H2O-solvent. This is rationalized by the assumption of a doubly protonated azobenzene molecule as an intermediate. Triplet sensitization of protonated azobenzene in 73% sulphuric acid (by weight) leads to cis-trans-isomerization and a photostationary state. This is similar to stilbene. With 1-aminonaphthalene as a sensitizer a photoreduction and cleavage of the azo group is an alternative reaction. It is shown that the cis-azobenzene molecule is the electron acceptor and that the photoreduction can be quenched by the addition of oxygen.
